Yes, I think I was listening to some of his repartee that time I was listening to him to scope his position on something, but I think it was a caller. I could be wrong. But I remember thinking that Boortz flunks "plays well with others". Bill Bennett, Hannity, and Dennis Miller are among the few who pass as being totally civil with guests. Rush doesn't have guests on his show -- that "nonguested confrontation" format that he shares with Levin and Doc Savage, and which Ed Schultz was paid to imitate.
Agree with you all the way except Hannity. Hannity’s juvenile and repetitive format is unbelievably boring, and he doesn’t give his guests a chance to speak. He talks over them constantly, and doesn’t have the intellectual heft to engage in a stimulating conversation.
Hannity is kindergarten for conservatives. Rush is post-graduate.
I like Boortz because he is all over the place in his thinking, and like he says - “Somebody’s got to say it.” I like his niche and can separate his good from his bad.
