Republican Representative Lauren Boebert of Colorado has faced online backlash from critics after urging President Joe Biden to lower flags to half-staff to honor the life of
Rush Limbaugh. Limbaugh, an unflinchingly conservative radio host and icon, died Wednesday at the age of 70 after a battle with lung cancer. "I'm calling on Joe Biden to order flags to be flown at half-staff in honor of Rush Limbaugh," Boebert tweeted on Friday. But her call was met with opposition.

Because of his honesty, Rush was among the most disliked among the democrat peeples. Although they had never listened to him, they are happy that he is departed. Leaving the rest of us with a void in our hearts.

1, they didn't have to listen to him. They were told he's bad. At least they weren't told he's orange :-)

The words outrage and backlash have become so tiresome and meaningless.

Biden should lower flags for Rush nationwide, but he doesn’t have the guts. He might do something right!

Biden hasn’t even had the decency to offer his condolences on the passing of an American icon. Biden is such trash.

Biden probably doesn't even realize the man is dead.

Rush loved Jesus. The left hates both of them.

Not-my-president Lyin' Joe Biden is too senile to even remember who Rush was.
And his handlers will never allow him to upset the lie-beral Demon-Rat base by honoring someone like Rush.
But, of course, the next time a gang banger racist thug drug addict is killed by the police as he attacks them with a gun, expect flags to be lowered at half-staff for a week to honor this poor victim of white supremacy!!!

Ever since Xiden got in I've wanted to fly my flag upside down, but someone put an end to that when they backed into my flagpole and broke it off.

My wife is traveling to visit her aged father for his 95th birthday. She will face outrage and backlash for not purchasing enough coffee for me before she left. See how stupid that sounds like writing a scathing letter to Mitch McConnel, useless.
Remember next to President Trump, Rush is the 2nd most hated conservative in America he just never entered politics otherwise he would be in first place shared with President Trump. I love to type "President Trump" if you haven't noticed.

They lower flags for evil people and traitors who have done nothing significant for the country but Rush Limbaugh is a great man the likes of whom is seen once or twice a century. When Joe Biden takes his long-overdue dirt nap I'm going to buy a flagpole with a fifty-foot extension to make sure that aircraft can see it. Pelosi too. The extension ceremony will be observed with champagne.

Yes, the Left hate d Rush for his honesty. But even more so, for his success! They can ignore a 'Voice of him that cryeth in the Wilderness'...provided it IS in the Wilderness, and no one else hears it. Rush was not to be ignored.

Of course he would never do that for Rush. But consider this - 0bama did it for the murdering philandering rapist drunkard Splash Kennedy.
Let’s do it ourselves - lower our own flags if we can and if we can’t, attach a black mourning streamer to them. That’s what hubby and I have done.

Once again, my freshman congresswoman, stands up. All 5 ft. 1 in. of her. The hateful lefties just can't stand it. Turtle, have you noticed Rep, Boebert? The hate of someone even after death is too much for the lefties. Liberalism IS a mental disorder.
