Make no mistake. Rush Limbaugh is “The Passion.” He is the passion of conservatism, the very pulse, bounding through the veins of the nation. He produces life with every heartbeat of his show as he scoffs at liberals and gives us his interpretation of conservative truth. His brand of ideology shakes the very foundations of liberalism. He follows in the footsteps of giants, such as George Washington, Thomas Paine, and Ronald Reagan, promoting the ideals of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. He broadcasts affectionately trying to steer growing government towards the ideals of the Constitution.
He believes that Americans with limited government are better Americans. He believes that Americans shouldn’t murder babies in the womb. He believes that judges shouldn't legislate from the bench. He believes that tax cuts are good for the economy. And finally, he believes safe Americans living free are the best Americans of all.
Boldly he pronounces the lies of liberalism and asserting daily doses of truth. With resounding conviction, he echoes the sentiments of the Founding Fathers, evoking the wrath of those who oppose him. “The Passion.” His passion forces him to carry the torch of liberty and justice, inflicting backlash, lies, and corruption at his doorstep. The compassionate liberals, those that believe in fair play and equal justice, will do almost anything to berate him.
Mildly he sits and passes on his message, his passion, his views, his legacy. A legacy of truth, justice, and the conservative American way. He hands his gift down day after day, show after show. He will live as one of the greatest men in conservative history correct 98.5% of the time. There are few men in history that has received the same award as President Ronald Reagan. There are fewer men that could go on day after day under the scrutiny he faces. And there are only a handful of men that could keep themselves reserved while suffering the onslaught of the visceral hatred of “compassionate liberals.”
Quite frankly, I don’t know how he does it. How does he stand so strong against so much? How does he execute his duties so faithfully with the onslaught of these lies? How does he continue to go on the air? Especially when the people that presumed to blackmail him walked free! “The Passion.” That’s how.
As I listened to his show today, March 12, 2005, I could hear “The Passion.” "So-called conservatives" tried to infiltrate the show and discredit the man behind the “Golden EIB Microphone.” He was fiery. He was excellent. He’d had enough. They failed to extinguish him and his disgust for weak-kneed Republicans.
I was enthralled. I was overjoyed. I felt giddy, like a kid in a candy store. I knew for the first time in months as if justice had taken a direct blow to the lies and corruption creeping into the federal government. Never had I waivered. Never had I been so steadfast in my disbelief of the news media and never have I lost my resolve in conservatism and this great country, America.
Despite all the claims, I still consider him the greatest conservative I’ll ever know. In his daily in and out battles with the left, he continues to overcome all odds and renew the spirit of conservatism for all citizens, beckoning the day when conservatism will be dominant in America.
I know you’re saying I’m crazy. I know you’re telling me to check myself into therapy, but it’s true. I can’t help it. I can’t help but applaud a man that fights to create a better America, executing liberal lies with impunity. I have too much respect and admiration for the man that put his own show ahead of pain, pushing himself into addiction and blackmail. Too much admiration for the man that removed the disease, the man that removed liberalism.
Liberalism was planted deep within me, as if it were a parasite feeding on me. Rush cut it out like a surgeon excising a cancerous tumor, giving me the opportunity to experience life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. He gave me the chance of a lifetime. The “lone beacon of opposition” handed me a certainty, a guarantee no person had ever given me before. No, he didn’t come to Texas and brainwash me. He presented his case like he does every single day-clearly, concisely and effectively, planting the seed of common sense in my brain. By sowing that seed, he also gave me hope, happiness, and “The Passion.”
“The Passion” to live life, to succeed again and again, and to not feel guilty about creating wealth. He handed me an education in advanced conservative studies and said, “Go forth and produce young man. Give life everything you’ve got.” And I do. I thank him from the bottom of my heart. I owe at a minimum my undying support and loyalty.
Everyday Rush withstands the assaults, he strengthens my resolve to praise him more and more. The more the liberals and weak-keed conservatives bash Rush the more I salute him. The more they harangue him the more I respect him. They cannot or will they ever break my obstinate resolve. Instead, they have only succeeded in convincing me how corrupt, phony, and merciless they really are.
With Rush on the radio, I continue to conquer day after day, living in conservative principles, consumed with the fiery notion of my new life. I rebuke liberalism with special thanks to my educator. I love the life I have earned, as I pursue success after success, and eagerly wait another broadcast day of “The Passion.”
See? What do I know?
He was an icon. Perhaps he and Mark Twain are laughing ... at me. ;)
This is a total misstatement of what I said. I told you that he should be credited for the Republican Conservatism triumph but he is not 100% responsible for it as you stated earlier "he created Republican majorities in the House and Senate. He has given Bush two terms in office". May be you need to clarify your statement.
Rush has been hard on wimpy Republicans all the time.
Well, I'm sure they can get FR in Heaven, and between gigs Chet is lurking. And I think Mark Twain was laughing at all of us, and usually for good reason.
His tone has NOTICEABLY changed within the past few months, but I've noticed subtle changes since he finished rehab.
Bumping is my game. :)
*** Old Chet reads that he will think he is Mark Twain. ;) ***
LOL! Yeah, I bet. :)

What's really dumb is that I didn't hear ALL of the report.
It was actually a guitarist that worked with Chet Atkins
that was reported to have died today.
The really bad part is that Chet Atkins died in 2001.
I can't keep up with all the old-timers that have or have
not passed.
Thank you, sir. :)
Unfortunately, the great Chet died in June 2001.
A finer gentleman there never was.Yes, sir. That is true. :)
Let's hope the GOP "leadership" grows a pair.....or else, we should THROW THEM OUT! The stakes are TOO HIGH to trust our future to wusses! (Are you listening, Dr. Frist?????)
Amen, amen and amen! The Freepers who assault Rush are not conservatives. I look at them as trolls with an attitude and one I do not like. Sorry trolls, but Rush has done more for conservatism than anyone in the US. If you disagree, tell me who has done more?
You're welcome.
Glad you enjoyed it. And I agree.
Glad you enjoyed it and I agree.
Shameless bump!
My pleasure....and he's on a roll again, today!
Thanks for the bump, bentfeather.
He is on a roll today. You're right.
It will cost you big time.:-)
You have no shame. :)
LOL
I'm sure Samuel Clemens, aka Mark Twain, is laughing at all of us, and right next to him is Will Rogers. We should be laughing at ourselves also ... in between the tears.
