Yesterday we saw the passing of Rush Limbaugh and I wanted to share a bit of what he stood for and what he believed – as do I – what this great country is and should continue to be. Despite what the Left is trying to tear down, despite what the Left is trying to brainwash us into believing, this is what TRUE Patriotic Americans are. This is what Conservatives are.
From his speech from CPAC in 2009 :
“Who are conservatives? We love people. When we look out over the United States of America, when we are anywhere, when we see a group of people, such as this or anywhere, we see Americans. We see human beings. We don’t see groups. We don’t see victims. We don’t see people we want to exploit. What we see — what we see is potential. We do not look out across the country and see the average American, the person that makes this country work. We do not see that person with contempt. We don’t think that person doesn’t have what it takes. We believe that person can be the best he or she wants to be if certain things are just removed from their path like onerous taxes, regulations and too much government. We want every American to be the best he or she chooses to be. We recognize that we are all individuals. We love and revere our founding documents, the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence,” he continued. “We believe that the preamble to the Constitution contains an inarguable truth that we are all endowed by our creator with certain inalienable rights, among them life, liberty, Freedom and the pursuit of happiness.”
El Rushbo couldn’t have said it better.
You are a great writer!
