Rush started out years ago on the right track. In his book "the way things ought to be" he talked about the many aspects that this country was under attack. Multiculturalism was a whole chapter in the book. At some point while Clinton was in office he changed his toon. He started to water down his words and his principles. Most of what he stood for in the book has nothing to do with his values today. I don't know if it was the drugs, the big money, or the desire to be a main stream country club republican that changed him. But one thing is for sure. All of his talent for the cause was lost.

There's a big difference when you are in opposition, and when you are governing. When you are not in power, you don't have to compromise. When you are in power, you have to.

Oh brother. Rush has not changed a thing. What has changed is his audience, who due to the Internet believe that they are actually better informed, when they really are not. Listening to today's show, it is obvious that Rush has made some calls and done some homework on the issue. Calls that you and me cant make and expect an answer to our questions.

The Internet has not given us the ability to find more facts, even though the facts are out there, all it has done is give us all a place to find support for our emotional opinions.
