Sharpton will flee if trump wins...

I don't know, that is why I asked.

That's really the question that people should be asking when these ridiculous hate-mongers start saying they're going to go elsewhere. I'm not impressed that they pretend they're going to leave because let's be honest, they're not. I'm just curious what country on the planet they think is better than the U.S., regardless of who happens to be in the White House, and which of those countries are willing to grant them citizenship, considering what a waste of genetic material they are in the first place.

Lame.

There was no "Vow".
Stop pushing liberal "make believe", it is dishonest.

Just like Limbaugh said he would flee a few years back?

No, not "just like Limbaugh said".

To suggest such is dishonest.
Context is everything.


Limbaugh's comment, in context was to leave to get health care elsewhere.

Here is the relevant portion of the Question asked.
If the health care bill passes, where would you go for health care yourself?​

Here is the relevant portion of his answer.

I’ll just tell you this, if this passes and it’s five years from now and all that stuff gets implemented — I am leaving the country. I’ll go to Costa Rica.​

And the context of that answer is driven home by him further saying he wouldn't go to Cuba for healthcare either.
Which is all confirmed in the audio provided at your above link.


And then even if a person chooses to ignore context and lamely thinks it only had to do with leaving the Country there was a caveat attached to it, which was; "and all that stuff gets implemented".
Well all that stuff didn't get implemented, the "risk corridors" were prevented from going into effect.

are you sure thats right? i used to listen to Rush quite bit and i remember him talking about leaving for Costa Rica if things got bad but i didnt remember it being about healthcare. i also remember Dennis Miller and others saying that Russia is starting to look like a good place to move to right now. and i agreed. (this was before Crimea etc)

Let me help you out.
The person I am responding to used specific wording in a LMGTFY search.
That wording was.

"limbaugh vows to leave country"​

On the first page only two results pop up with the word "vow" in them. One from a Fox channel quoting "Think Progress" and "Think Progress".

They all go back to the video provided by media matters.

You asked for it because, evidently you didn't have the 3 seconds to look it up.

Limbaugh is just as guilty as the rest for vowing to leave the country.

Hey, I used words that would work easily in a google search.

You thought you were calling my bluff, and you failed. Let it go.

WTF?
Who asked for what?
I did look it up, which is the very reason I was able to show you were wrong.

iLOL
Apparently you are not paying attention.
I did not call any bluff. I showed your claim to be false.
In context he was speaking of leaving to get healthcare as that is what he was asked.

Dammit! Do I have to vote for Trump now?

I know, right? I swear, this is the most bizarre campaign ever. Now I have a reason to vote for Trump.

Well, I would (have a reason), except that I have absolutely zero faith that Sharpton would actually follow through.

Where would he go?

That's just it, there is no place he could go where he would have it anywhere near as good as he has it here.

I picture it like the seen from the movie about Meyer Lansky. He flew to many different countries and he wasn't let off the plane because the country would not allow him to enter.

I think it would be the same with Sharpton.
 
hmmm.....probably the only reason to vote for Trump
 
Even f you are the most committed democrat on the planet...you have to admit...that sounds tempting as a reason to vote for Trump.

No kidding, hey? Sweeten the pot with Rosie O'Donnell and Steven Baldwin and you have to admit. It's tempting.

Whatever one thinks of his posturing, arrogance and racism, this is a fellow who has been very successful in the business world and now has a reasonable chance of succeeding, without establishment backing, in the political world also. It's not really fair to liken him to a chimpanzee. This isn't Bush Junior we're talking about ;)

Wasn't really comparing him to a chimp. per se, but rather commenting on the gullibility of the average person.
