Why do Conservatives Hold the Ideals of a Childless, 3 Times Divorced, Drug Addict in Such High Esteem?

Question

He called Chelsea Clinton the "White House dog" - when she was 13

He repeatedly called New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin "Nayger"

He dodges the draft for Vietnam by way of a "pilonidal cyst" in his rectum

Is THIS the best man conservatives could find to represent the conservative philosophy?

Answer 1

You MUST be talking about Rush! (The rectal cyst was the giveaway.)

If he and Annie Girl are the best mouthpieces that the Conservatives can come up with, the party is in SERIOUS trouble. Does any old guard Republican honestly think that Ronnie Reagan would have had much of anything to do with either of them??

Guy above me: Then why do they get some much air and face time on the conservative media?? Just plain dumb, IMHO.

Answer 2

You are so right. everyone knows Monica Lewinsky was the White House dog.
And do you mean to tell me he called the mayor of new Orleans, you know the one that said he " will return new Orleans to the chocolate city it once was" a Nayger.
And how dare he not go to Vietnam for medical reasons when he could have done the same as John Kerry and went over there and hide in a hole and then come back and lie about his achievements and also let congress and the American people know that our soldiers are a bunch of worthless rapist and killers of babies.
and how can we possibly hold this drug addict in such high esteem when we can worship the one that didn't inhale.

Answer 3

Who says all Conservatives do? You do not know why people think and feel the way they do. Some of it does ultimately come down to their political views, incidentally. This is not some existentialists-only world that everyone must feel the way you do about everything.

I cannot speak to your assertions, I rarely watch television. The spin makes me sick to my stomach. I get my news in print from as many sources as I can. Somewhere in there is the truth.

I do not myself speak highly of Nagin. I find him to be racist. And I find him to be the reason New Orleans needs help and people have closed their hearts.

I do not think that Vietnam service is a valid criticism any can render BUT THOSE WHO SERVED. They alone have this right. And maybe their loved ones.

But I support Fred Thompson, and I hope he will run.

Answer 4

I wouldn't say people necessarily hold dear old Rush in such high esteem. It's more like he's the loudest and so he gets heard the most and so his opinions get aired the most and then repeated.

You forgot to mention his lovely view of Parkinson's and making fun of Michael J. Fox. Really not the best thing to do considering the number of older people that vote for the elephants.

Answer 5

Nope. hitting all-time low isn't any requirement to understand that financial accountability is the sole situation which will shop u . s . a . from collapsing economically and dissolving like maximum of different large historic communities. in basic terms uncomplicated experience and a ideas that function in many circumstances. (additionally, there's no information Giuliani or Beck is gay, and Bush isn't "nevertheless a drug addict". Bald confronted lies ruin your creditibility)

Answer 6

Also, claims he is an authority in regards to economics, politics, and govt. policy, but holds no college degree in any of the three topics as well.

I agree with you. Pat Buchanan and Bill Buckley are at least college educated and are much better at representing the conservative movement than Rush Limpd!ck.

Answer 7

I have no idea... People on the outside fringes of either side irritate me greatly... Even worse, it seems both parties are trying to put forward the worst possible candidate for the next election...
