A client of mine told me about Rush in 1989, and I listened to him almost every day until his death. I contributed to the blood cancer research every year and got T shirts and polo shirts as his way of thanking me. My wife liked the shirts and bought me more of them from his web site.
I remember the day after the 1994 election when Newt won the Speakership. Rush started his show with “Ladies and gentlemen, I sure as heck...”. The next thing you heard was the James Brown song “ I feel good!”. I felt pretty good too.
Me too, and I bought Rush golf shirts, still wear his ball caps and re-read his books, especially his "Rush Revere" books, they are priceless and timeless.
Rush paid $3.9 million for his FL house and it sold for $155 Million {and the judge in Trump's NY fraud case says that Mara Lago is only worth $18 million when it is estimated to be worth between 1-1.5 BILLION.
RIP El Rushbo, we all miss you and pray for your love of the USA.
Rush was just the best. He was so much fun to listen to. I also have listened since 1989 , August of that year. I rarely ever missed a show. I still have 100’s of downloads of past shows. Every now and then, I listen to one at random. They are very heavily oriented toward news at that time. That’s what Rush did. He covered the topics of the day. I’m positive he got a lot of his news from Free Republic. I even saw it on his computer screen a few times.
This will always be a sad day for me.
