Read It: Erick's Stack of Stuff -- Quotes, Audio Clips, More "I cannot imagine the American people are happy with the status quo in Washington, DC, which is one of the great things about the 2016 field. The majority of people in the Republican Party who will run for president, whether you like them or not, whether you think they're conservative or not, one of the great things about them is that the overwhelming majority of them will not be preachers of Washington, DC, unlike the Democratic Party." -Erick Erickson Rush: My Dream Ticket - 12.17.14 Audio for Rush 24/7 Members: Christmas Nuts and Heroes Republican Presidential Candidates? The "Reasonable" Conservative Trap "I don't want people who are okay with outcomes in Washington. As conservatives, I don't think any of us should want people who are okay with outcomes in Washington. It's one of my beefs with Republicans in Congress right now.  They pounded their chest and said, 'No, no, no, we're fighting!' and then the president did his executive amnesty and the Republicans funded it!" -Erick Erickson   Quotes from Rush's Final Show of 2014: Pearls of Wisdom "The Tea Party is never going to go away because it's not a thing. The Tea Party is an attitude. The Tea Party is a mind-set. And it is held by millions and millions of Americans." -Rush Stories Discussed on Today's Program: Weekly Standard: The More the Merrier - William Kristol New York Post: Passenger Tossed After Flipping Out Over Staff's 'Merry Christmas'��� NYDN: Topless Woman Snatches Baby Jesus from Nativity Scene at St. Peter's Square in Pro-Choice Demonstration San Gabriel Valley Tribune: Covina Police Officers, Firefighters Rescue Family's Stolen Christmas AP: Can GOP Shatter 'Obama Coalition' in 2016? New York Times: Jeb Bush's Emails as Governor of Florida Show His Agenda and Goals JWR: The TRUTH about Kwanzaa - Tony Snow -- 12.31.99 "Christmas brings out the crazies, but it also thankfully brings out the heroes. Police officers are doing a good job. The media doesn't report those stories because it interrupts the narrative." - Erick Erickson "Demography is not destiny. Good policy is destiny. What does it say about Democrats that they invest all of their efforts winning on skin color and now they've got a problem with white skin color." - Erick Erickson LINKS RushLimbaugh.com  Dittocam Video & Audio  Today's Show Podcasts     CONNECT  Facebook  Twitter  Contact Send a friend this link to sign up for the Rush in a Hurry Show Notes Unsubscribe  |  Edit Subscription  |  Sign Up  |  Terms & Conditions  |  Privacy Policy RUSH LIMBAUGH © 2014 PO BOX 7298, Van Nuys, CA 91409-7298 US
