The thing that irritates me about Rush is his refusal to go head to head with the opposition. You never hear Rush take on an opponent who can match up with him. When he posed the "10 Questions" to Richard Clarke after his book came out and his appearance on '60 Minutes', I kept wondering why he didn't have Clarke on his show so he could ask those questions to him directly.

To me, Rush doesn't take nearly enough phone calls, and the ones he does take always seem to agree with him totally. I'd just like to hear some debate on the Limbaugh show.

Neal Boortz is my favorite. Whether or not you agree with his political viewpoints, you have to admit, it's a pretty entertaining show, and I love how he nails his opponents to the wall. I've heard Boortz debate Hannity on drug legalization, and believe me, Boortz pratically ate him for lunch.

Rush's callers are either bots are sufferable fools. I've more than once heard someone sign his praises and how much they love and agree with him only to have him leave the call obviously wondering how in the heck the caller can breathe on their own.

The other thing I've began to notice is how he will switch gears and suddenly go to the phones and have someone ready to talk about that topic. Think about it guys. It's too hard to get through to find someone after a short riff on a topic that 's ready to go. Try it sometimes. These have to be staged calls.

If you like debate, try Michael Medved. I think he tells his screener to NOT take calls from people who agree with him.

Yes and Boortz tore up Bill O'Reily one night on his TV show. Bill called Neal a vicious SOB. LOL!
