Actually radio ratings are fore casted just like television ratings. It was very apparent that Rush's show was stagnating later during GWB’s presidency. It wasn't getting the kind of fantastic audiences that it had when Clinton was in office mucking things up. Because it lacked the the kind of controversy in which rush could talk about.

Zero is so fantastically stupid that he's granting Rush his wet dream. A full on mainstream national stage. Zero is trying to portray Rush as some mega-villan but he's too stupid to realize that Rush is a radio personality and doesn't hold the responsibilities that an elected official does.

Rush doesn't need to play by the same rules and the sooner he makes that separation clear the more ammo he'll have to crush and humiliate Zero with.

But yes this is for rating and just as the article points out it's worked. Read my post #47 if you want I simply don't feel like explaining yet again how this simply benefits Rush and this feigned shock and melodrama is rather transparent.

**this simply benefits Rush and this feigned shock and melodrama is rather transparent.**

OF COURSE IT IS ... and off the record.. Rush would probably say “and this is a bad thing, how?” BUT ... it’s WORKING!!

If NOBAMA is STUPID enough to give RUSH the ROPE.. you KNOW rush gonna hang ol’ BARKY with it.. and then LAUGH all the way to the BANK.
