I always got a thrill when it was time to rag on Gorbachev with the John Williams’ Darth Vader march.

Yes, I forgot that one. The theme is still a staple of high school and college marching bands. I honestly think Rush's use of the song was what popularized it and transitioned it as a marching band selection meant to symbolize the evil of their on-field opponent.

So many great memories!

I believe it would be awesome to pay tribute to Rush with a replay of the lady singing,”God Bless You, Rush Limbaugh”

The technical term was GORBASM

It referred to that feeling of euphoria that liberals would feel whenever they thought of the great things that Michael Gorbachev was capable of.

It was my first introduction to Rush ... his national show had just begun airing in San Diego and was during latter Reagan / Bush years. It was absolutely hilarious while simultaneously driving libs nuts! Just like SOTU tonight ;)
