>>Rush knows he's on his way to early retirement beginning next year<<
How do you know that? I must have missed it. Did he mention it on his show, or somewhere else?
I know it because every single conservative talk show host that I listen to including Rush has said that should the Dems win both Houses in this election they will pass some form of the fairness doctrine once again to shut down conservative talk radio, their # 1 enemy. Rush has been a lot less excited about it than the others probably because he can retire with no financial worries. All of them expect a good portion of the Pubbies to help the Dems pass it as they are as uncomfortable as the Dems when talk radio turns the light on them and reports on their scurrying like the cockroaches many of them are.
