It's a term I use to describe those who use patriotism as a means for profit, and at the expense of truth or fact. As we both agree, this isn't necessarily judical activism, yet the talk radio hosts either state or allow callers without correction to state that this is another example of judicial activism. They profit because it keeps listeners tuned in, responding and ad dollars flowing.
I tend to like Rush, I've heard him be very eloquent at times. I listen if he's on when I'm driving usually. I believe he is more of a Republican than I am, however. I don't mind that he's made money from it, pursuit of profit is a good thing, IMO. I might think he was weird if he ran it non profit and gave all the extra to charity, for instance.
