Well said! I must admit, I was turned of by Rush's arrogance at first..until I caught on..and then I loved listening. What he did for me was really appeal to my grown children, keeping them enthusiastic and solidifying their conservatism. He rallied the troops and converted many to the cause. I am forever grateful.

Thanks for the nice comment and I'm forever grateful too.

I guess it did. JL's a good Beattle though. He usually likes my stuff. I guess that means I give up now.

Oh! Woe is me! :) Just kidding, J.L.

I stopped reading at this point.

To understand Rush H. Limbaugh III, you only need to take a look at Ronald Reagan, Rush H. Limbaugh, Jr. and the patriarch, Rush Hudson Limbaugh. These men were largely responsible for creating "the most dangerous man in America."

Don't be writing Rush's' eulogy just yet!

He has much more work ahead of him!

Hope ya get his mention, if not a spot on his show!

Conservatism is easy. It is living under tried and true rules and ethics that have proven to be real and effective frm thousands of years of experience. Examples that have been proven to work: capitalism, discipline, personal responsibility, monogamy, hetero-sex, honesty, phonics, unity over diversity, mommies that stay at home with their children, working to earn a living, earning self esteem through effort.

Liberalism is exactly the opposite. To be a liberal you must first throw out all the wisdom ever passed down from the sages and adopt every cockamamie, kook theory that comes along. Examples that have proven that DO NOT work: socialism, communism, whole word reading, diversity, homo-sex, free love, welfare, the ends justifying the means, unearned self esteem, abortion, avoidance of responsibility.

Very well said!

We all go through life, meaning to thank someone, then realize too late, that we failed to do so.

Thank you for this article,and thanks Rush for all that you do!

When has Rush called Bush on anything of import? I always thought he was a real conservative but he seems to be going along with this neo-con stuff and ignoring the debt like everyone else.

A truly superb read. It is hard to imagine not having Mr. Limbaugh on the radio. I know that he helped me survive High School and College, and for that I am eternally grateful.

But with our huge war deficit, how will we keep paychecks going to tens of thousands of feminazi bureaucrats under the hundreds of different entitlements to destroy the patriarchal family (sarcasm, irony)?

Democrats have been crying about that, and so are the Euros. We couldn't stop them in Congress, so we're doing it another way. And yes, I'm willing to pay the higher interest to preserve the family against the witches and their lilting male feminist friends. Let the next Democrat president catch up on the deficit instead of destroying our families in their efforts to destroy common men.

I dont listen to Rush 3 hrs every day, but I grew tired of his show when he became too much of an Bush apologist. Yes, he on occasion took issue with some of Bush' actions, but to me, I got tire dof listening to the same junk day in, day out. To me at least, the only time I still find him intresting is open line Fridays.
