Limbaugh: Republicans Want A New Base Without Tea Party

The Republican Party wishes the tea party would go away, and would prefer a new base altogether, says conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh.

In an hourlong interview with Fox News Channel's Greta Van Susteren Tuesday, Limbaugh said the Republican leadership isn't conservative.

"They're not particularly crazy about conservatives," he said, adding that members of the tea party can't be controlled by the GOP leadership. In 2010, the grassroots movement rose up in opposition to President Barack Obama, but the Republican establishment didn't embrace them.

The current leadership in the Republican party, including people like Karl Rove, are more interested in bigger government than they are in freedom.
Just Dumbocrats with a different uniform on.

rino's need to poop or get off the pot. we don't want them. they think they can have a strong republican party without those that want to get back to the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights. they are sadly mistaken. we will not capitulate to these wimps and compromisers.
America is better than this and we need to return to our roots.

The republican party is dead. They are nothing but the right wing of the same bird who is running this country. They need to just join up with the Dems and admit their addiction.
Then we can get down to the business of Opening people up to the independent parties. It won' ever happen without the proof that the r\d ticket is one and the same, which it is.

Preach this, people.

The compromised one world government Republicans are worse than the communist sympathizing one world government Democrats. At least the Democrats straight up support communism, the establishment Republicans half-assed support it, which makes them useless in both worlds. Purging the Republican party of true conservatives will make it powerless and guarantee a one party system in the US like Russia, China, Cuba, North Korea and the other communist countries.

Time for people who defend the constitution to form a new party. Establishment Republicans are just Democrat/Commie lite.

"Establishment Republicans are just Democrat/Commie lite." Really???? What rock are you living under? We have two parties here in America -- Rep. & Dems. There is no Establishment Republicans. Oh, you must be talking about the Republicans who have been elected to office to work hard for your silly butt.
