I love it too.

So they have this poll that says a lot of younger voters don’t like Rush, and they get all excited - “he can be the new “Bush”, the guy we’ll demonize just like Saul Alinsky taught us”.

Except.

By focusing on him, they do something Rush would never have been able to do on his own - - become elevated to the same level in national debate as the President of the United States!

Many of those “negatives” come from people who have never heard Rush. Young people don’t listen to AM radio, thet don’t seek out the opinions of stout cigar-loving 50-ish white men who probably remind them all too much of their fathers.

But now, more people than ever will be tuning in, seeking “the forbidden fruit”. Rush could never have drawn in these new listeners to the extent they are now coming on their own, to hear what it is that they are being told at every turn they must NOT listen to. Not all, but some, will listen, think, and believe.

Isn’t this how it was for all of us, when we cast aside the idealistic dreams of our liberal youth and finally realized the wisdom of conservative principles?

The amazing part is, The Snake and The Forehead were to dumb to figure this out!

Exactly. Rush is Corbomite any attack on him makes him stronger and they are rapidly elevating him to Bush status as a Demon!
They are incompetent, yet dangerous morons.

Amen to that.. Listened to Rush when I was 22 and changed my whole life and how I see things. I became successful in everything I do because of the confidence I found listening to Rush.

Their arrogance led them astray. There is an old saying from the day when newspapers were the medium of choice: "Never get in an argument with someone who buys ink by the barrel." I think you could update that to add, "Never pick a fight with someone who has a microphone and 20 million listeners."
