Washington Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg responded Sunday to Rush Limbaugh's recent homophobic remarks, saying he doesn't take"lectures on family values" from the conservative radio host and Medal of Freedom recipient.
"Well, I love my husband. I'm faithful to my husband. On stage we usually just go for a hug. But I love him very much, and I'm not going take lectures on family values from the likes of Rush Limbaugh," Buttigieg, who is gay, told CNN's Dana Bash on"State of the Union.
Rush did not use homophobic remarks. Also, not everyone has to accept gays lol. I have tons of gay friends but all of them know I don’t support gay rights. I don’t care if they get married or do whatever but I’m not going to help the cause in any way to bc I believe different.
Rush your not nice! Be nice!
If you are a women or gay you shouldn't be president. Cant even talk to marjory Muslim country's. Cant do the duties needed for president of the United States
America does NOT want this in the White House
Well ya know, it’s a new generation and probably a lot of them are alright with it? It’s the older generation that may have a problem with it?
I'm more than sure Pete loves his husband than Rush has ever with any woman he's ever been with
So, nobody can have a different opinion? I thought this was America? We don't have to agree on everything, divide Americans is all you ever do!
But will Americans mount Pete to the top position?
Read Romans 1:18-31 and understand the rainbow 🌈 before you talk too much . What sense in a human being makes an anus a vagina ?
What? Conservative radio host & medal winner? Who are you & where is CNN? Let’s try racist radio host, most undeserving of medal of freedom; last week you were showing videos of rush’s top hate shows; did upper management change your programming
It's not about family or children... it's about self. Quite possibly a mental disorder.
Hey CNN? What exactly did Rush say that was homophobic? Same old, same old from CNN. Throwing crap on the wall to see what sticks.
I Charles say to all repent for the kingdom is coming and we have all falling we need to repent the kingdom will come
Rush is right....This lil liar has as good of chance being president as I do. I've spent zero dollars trying and he's out milking all of you. CNN will hire him as soon as he drops out since they have a Gay hiring practice for they're 'panels'
If Rush has a problem with gay men, maybe he should talk to the man that confessed his love to Kim, talking about it's a love affair with love letters. Or Putin who he follows around like a love sick fool.
This is how you describe Rush Limbaugh? Conservative radio host and... okay, seriously? We now have to refer to him as 'Medal of Freedom recipient' every time we mention his name?
The last 50-years countries throughout the world accused the USA of having no morals. Today, Democrats, Liberials and MSM want to elect a gay president who kisses his husband on national television.
Lol rush is gonna die painfully from lung cancer hahaha
Yemen's charity director calls for a cessation of arms sales to hostile sides in Yemen. Yemen YemenCantWait Yemeni
Really, you really think Limbaugh, a hateful man a known drug addict, actually deserved the Freedom Medal and therefore that legitimizes his “Hate Speech”.
For years, we’ve heard stories of Republicans, living in the closet, secretly gay. Now, we have a gay man who is living in the closet, secretly a Republican.
Limbaugh is just another, of so many, linked to this WH’s bottom feeders!
👎
Being against homosexuality does not make one a homophobe!
Do not take any lectures from any talk show host who supports a pussy grabbing, molesting, three times married Potus. Does America want this as our roll model? America can do better!
Pete likes dick. Rush is a dick. Ironic.
People love who they love! God loves each and everyone of us!! What someone does in their bedroom is no one else's business as long as they are not hurting anyone! That is wrong on so many levels!
As far as being a Medal of Freedom winner, Rush is a hoax perpetrated by the sorry excuse for an administration currently occupying the WH. The man no more deserved that honor than the man in the moon. If Rush earned it, anybody can and that reduces the honor. Rush=hoax.
Two guys having sex doesn’t exhibit family values
He didn't learn his moral values correctly.
So when will he start wearing a skirt
PeteButtigieg Those who listen only to what they want to hear know only what they want to know. Considering yourself superior, in any way, does not make it so.
Homophobic. A fear of Homosexuals. rushlimbaugh gives zero appearance he has any feelings at all regarding Homosexuals. I have listened to him at least 30 years and not once have I heard any evidence. Do you think it’s Rushophobia? Mayor Peter is afraid of Mr. Limbaugh?
Oh, is 'Medal of Freedom Recipient' like 'Pulitizer prize winner' Or 'Oscar winner' now? Part of the man's public profile? Looks more like one of those trophies they give to kids for participating, about as meaningful.
I prefer my radio hosts not have lung cancer
bittigieg you are lost
I will never support a candidate who don’t know that man is for a woman. What are we educating our young people?
Methinks Limbaugh wants to get in on a little of that love that dare not speak its name-hmmm,hmmm, good!
How is this homophobic? Rush questioned whether american voters are ready for a gay president “despite all the great progress” Most people in this thread either haven’t read the article or have no idea what homophobic means, or maybe both.
And drug addict too
I'm no a fan of PeteButtigieg, but this time he is right, Rush Limbaugh is an idiot for what he said, and it CLEARLY SHOWS UP Limbaugh for what he REALLY IS!
It’s important to note that the Medal of Freedom given to Racist Rush by Trump. That diminishes that award greatly. From one racist to another, disgraceful!
Coming from someone as morally corrupt as Donald Trump that medal means nothing.
PeteButtigieg thanks for always having class!!! And you never have to explain yourself to the likes of someone like him
Pete knows, he has a roommate!
Being gay surely doesn't qualify you either. Hedonism maybe.
Notice Bernie said nothing? His Berniebots are unbelievably homophobic.
What were the homophobic remarks?
Buttigieg is a corporate puppet!🚫🚫🚫
It should not matter but it is naive to think it will not matter. In an election that will be close, a gay man who has never held a national political office will face an uphill battle against the pathological lying buffoon if the economy is good on election day.
1. Limbaugh has been married 4 times, so is in no position to comment on anyone else. 2. If Pete is the nominee, trump will never debate him. Pete is intelligent and well-spoken and trump is hahahahahahaha *cough cough* Sorry.
Rush said some people aren’t going to like seeing Pete kiss his husband on stage. It’s true right? Don’t be dense.
BREAKING NEWS... democrats wants president day holiday cancelled since it inadvertently honors president trump as well .. ALL employees must report to work tomorrow as normally scheduled or will face articles of impeachment from house democrats .. facts first
Maybe he should.
This feels like a zany comedy trailer from the early 00s. 'Meet Rush, a no-nonsense loud-mouthed talk show host. Meet Pete, a government asset 3D printed out at Groom Lake. Neither of them know it yet, but they're going to have to team up to fight the aliens and save America!'
Even with Cancer, Rush Limbaugh is still the same stubborned homophobic, sexist and racist individual. He hasn't changed one bit. Not even Cancer can humble this man into becoming a better human being.
Uninteresting.
Pete Buttguy is vagaphobic! Why is that better?!
Don’t worry he will he dead soon and he take all his shit to the grave with him .
Biden and his granddaughter have more chemistry than Pete and Chasten
Limbaugh is the antithesis to family values!
And to think this homophobic racist got a metal from the president. And no-one questions it. It's an embarrassment. Our leadership is a joke.
You should take some advice from somebody. You are the WORSE EXAMPLE. The very worse..And those that promote this filth is even worse...
Well, I don't think those who support Infanticide should being speaking on family values.
Lol
Because he’s gay, of course he has no family values
Is it just me or does it seem like every single time someone touts family values, it's someone who's the worst example of family values? Like Rush and Trump, for example.
He does however take lectures from the CIA on imperialism CIAPete
I’ll take calling a hairy mans ass love for 100 Alex
Pete Buttplug doesn't take lectures on family values. But he likes to give lectures on 'Christian' values.
'homophobic' Obviously he didn't listen to Rush's comments.
POTUS
