As far as Fox News and many talk radio programs are concerned, I’ve stopped being a “sucker”.

How about Rush?

Rush Limbaugh grew up in the Republican party with his father and grandfather deeply involved including party office and public office, political appointments, Eisenhower appointed his grandfather an ambassador to India.

I accept that Rush isn’t going to come out and diss the GOP. How many cardinals diss the church, so to speak. He was spoken recently of Washington ‘governing against the will of the people’.

I listen to what he says but sometimes it sounds like an attempt to drag people into the idea the Republican Party are the ‘good guys’ like the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Rush has been used by the GOP machine and the other hosts have been too. He says he’s not going to be a shill for the GOP and I am listening and shutting off once in a while to consider what I’m hearing.

Hannity because he uses so many GOPe guests loses a lot of credibility with me. He has a lot of cred to re-establish in my book.

Levin spoke recently of the notion of a better managed government. That’s not the real issue, its the existence of big government itself.

His constitutional change idea seems to be a way to occupy people’s time in the existing political system without having them ditch it for some third party notion. They talked it up here in PA back in 2005 after a big elected officials pay raise. It went nowhere.

Beck says he’s an addict who’s sober now. I identify with that and listen to him the most.

MY BOTTOM LINE IS THAT 95 PERCENT OF REPUBLICAN ELECTED OFFICIALS ARE FAKING OR REPUDIATING CONSERVATISM.

I wonder how many of the above hosts believe that.
