Related: About this forumPig Boy Bashes GOP 'Establishment': 'Embarrassed' to Be Associated With 'Lunatic' Ted Cruz
10/17/13 - Now that the government shutdown is over, many in the Washington establishment, including Republicans, aren't exactly happy with Ted Cruz. Rush Limbaugh went after these Beltway types for being "embarrassed" by Cruz instead of embracing him. Limbaugh said it was stunning to the Republican establishment to see "one guy with some supporters" rising up and shaking up the system. He said the GOP ought to have "45 Ted Cruzes" in the Senate, but instead of embracing him, Republicans are "embarrassed" and "hope nobody thinks they like Cruz" because they're terrified of being associated with him.
Just as these same people so eagerly called Sarah Palin a "ditz," Limbaugh said, they are now throwing Cruz under the bus with words like "lunatic." He touted how Cruz, unlike other Republicans, was able to get around the media filter in the same way Ronald Reagan could.
Limbaugh also went after liberals for targeting people like Reagan and Cruz who expose "how liberalism fails," and so "when liberalism is defeated, whoever engineers that defeat... must be destroyed."

That asshole Limbaugh has been pedaling the same bullshit since the late-80's.
The only thing amazing about him is that there are so many people who nod their head gravely and swallow all of the bullshit that man can spew out of the unfortunate hole in his face...
