Rush isn’t entertaining anymore. No song parodies, no funny fake ads.
And Rush, like Mark and Sean, hasn’t been honest about Hussein. All three of them, and most other talkers, have participated in the Conspiracy of Respectability about the crudely-forged “birth certificate”—the one typed on six different typewriters—and all the other evidence that Hussein is an illegal-alien foreign agent.
Nobody goes to Rush for information anymore. He offers philosophical musings and mildly amusing comments on ephemeral news items.

I think three things took the wind out of his sails: (1) the utter duplicity of the GOP after the 1994 congressional victories (during the past 20 years they've made it clear they're part of the Uniparty); (2) his marriage to Marta and related divorce; and (3) the prosecutorial witchhunt over his misuse of prescription drugs. I would add one more:
(4) three years after his misuse of OxyContin, Limbaugh was detained at the Palm Beach International Airport, arriving from a "private vacation in the Dominican Republic" carrying a bottle of Viagra prescribed under a different name. Was Limbaugh's trip actually a "sex tour"?

Rush will still be on in Boston.
Several years ago WJR in Detroit moved Savage into the two hour 3 - 5 PM Hannity time slot and Savage bragged for months.
Of course what he failed to mention is that the Patriot network picked up Hannity, gave him 3 hours ( 3 - 6 p.m.)and put him on both their AM 1400 station AND their 92.7 FM station..........LOL!

I don't listen to him as much as I used to for those and other reasons. Football and golf discussions/promotions turn me off because I have ESPN and The Golf Channel for those. Don't have young kids anymore so promoting those time travel kiddie books makes me switch channels. Same with tea commercials. The worst is wandering off on tangents and never getting back to the main point. They ought to have a boxing glove on an extender so that Snerdly can bop Rush in the head every time he utters the dreaded phrase “By The Way”. If not, Rush becomes the Master of Asides.

I am still mad at him for ignoring Obamas eligibility and the Os many posted forgeries. Yeah, because you know SO much more about running a successful radio show than he does.

And that is fostered in the schools as their is no time to discuss anything in depth while pedaling to the metrics of Common Core and every other education mandate. This is why schools have bells and periods, to prevent the habit of investigating anything in depth.
The lesson of the bells is to study a subject when and how someone else tells you to.
Mass government schooling has always been about establishing intellectual dependence.

I’ve not listened to Rush in about six years. He’s boring and transparent. I enjoy the give and take online, better.

I think his ratings have fallen because people like me are sick and tired of him diverting off to talk about Deflate Gate or whatever football story there is and try to connect it to the topic of the day. Nope he doesn't broadcast in Spanish. </s>

I find myself listening to John Gibson on Fox News radio more now. He does a good program. John had a good TV show on FOX until he said the wrong thing. I forget what he said but the PC crowd went bonkers I guess.

Have to laugh at Libs who call Rush a draft-dodging oaf yet line up to salivate over Bill Clinton. Rush at his weight would never get past the physical but pilonidal cyst seems to be the stated reason for his 4F rating.

And he does so haltingly, often stumbling over the words. Hannity could cover 25% more stuff if he didn't repeat himself so much.

Just wait until the liberals make their own radio station by stealing money from charities. Then he’ll really be off the air...Oh wait. they tried that.

Burns and Allen. Jack Benny. Fibber McGee and Molly. All of them: two 60-second commercials in 30 minutes. In those days commercials were limited by the FCC. Today a one hour TV show is more like 38 minutes with commercials and what happened previously removed.

"Hannity could cover 25% more stuff if he didn't repeat himself so much." Agreed...during the 2012 election, I got so sick of the repetitive catchphrases that I yelled at the radio.
