You gotta be kidding me. He KNOWS these people. Has hobnobbed with them. Rush knows more about what goes on and has gone on that any of us. He MUST play it down the middle. ONE whiff of "conspiracy theorist" and the entire Excellence in Broadcast Empire crumbles to the ground.
I disagree. Rush is a cheerleader for the Republican party. The idea that there could exist something beyond just Democrat and Republican is beyond him. Everything about his commentary for the last 30 years demonstrates that. Don’t fall for his self-hype. He’s very good at making people think he’s a lot smarter than he really is. Having said that, I think he’s done a lot of good in communicating conservatism to a wide audience. But he’s a communicator, not a particularly brilliant thinker.
