Maybe so but it is still the truth. I suspect others may feel the same way. I find that more and more frequently I can listen to whole programs where I feel like it was a waste of time because he goes on and on about a football player cold cocking his girl friend in an elevator, the latest I-phone etc. Give me a break! The country is falling apart. I always listened to his program because I could get the cold hard political facts that the MSM ignored. And don’t dare tell me to go elsewhere to post my honest opinion...I’ve freeped for many years.

Not fond of iPhones but you are totally missing the point on the NFL. I think this may well be THE cultural front-lime battleground because it has for so long defined America (vs soccer) and masculinity, so he's dead on. Personally, I don't want another Hannity who repeatedly interviews Jamie Dupree or his little stable of pollsters.

And while I don't think Rush has put it together yet on technology---see the Drudge stories on smart robots---in fact the "cell phone" has become THE single biggest tech driver on the planet and we aren't close yet to appreciating the vast nature of its impact.

When Rush gets sidetracked on something you don’t like, turn him off. Just don’t try to rationalize your now anti-Rush by trying to enlist the rest of us.

Rush would say you sound like a seminar caller with the “I’ve been a Dittohead from day one” qualifier promotion. Sounds a bit like that here too.

rush is getting duller thats for sure. Increasingly rare are the insightful and sharp tongued analysis that kept the fire in our bellies alive. I can think of a few reasons why he has “mellowed” out recently:

1. he’s getting older, has fought the good fight so long that he is wanting to pass the torch

2. he thinks America is lost - unfortunately i come away with this filling often after listening to his perspective on the political issues. If he feels this way then why not talk about human things instead? It is a natural way to transition the psyche.

3. He has been corrupted by some outside influence and is purposely toning down rhetoric - perhaps warned by the government?

4. He is just being himself. He enjoys talking about day to day things other than politics and realizes obama is a lame duck so isn’t going to waste energy on those topics anymore. Damage is done - he is resting up in preparation for 2016’s fight.
