Honestly, I don't listen to Rush. I haven't since he "set himself free" after the last election. But about once a month, I hold my nose, and press the AM button....just to see what the fat blowhard is saying. I did that today. And what did I hear? An anti-Bush rant about how he should have completely fired all the US attorneys ala the clintons.
Personally, I hold Rush accountable for losing the Senate seat in the state of Missouri, with his attack on Michael J. Fox. If you study the election returns closely, you will see that there was an anti-Limbaugh vote in this state that amounted to 2 %. Limbaugh had a brother who was on the ballot in the Supreme Court, and he got 2% less than the rest of the judges on the state-wide ballot.
That 2% was all we needed to win that Senate seat, and hold the Senate. So, no. I don't hold Rush Limbaugh in much esteem, and never will. Maybe he ought to stick to golf.

Rush hasn't been anti-Bush over the firing of 8 Clinton appointed judges.
Clinton fired every single judge across this country, and nary a word was said by the Democrats or the Republicans. Why? Because that's part of the job of POTUS.

Rush was absolutely right about Michael J. Fox. Had it not been the Dems year, it would have made no difference and I am not sure even now that it did. Talent barely won his first election and was not a particularly strong candidate. His opponent, Claire McCaskill, was very well known and quite popular statewide. She shamelessly exploited the stem cell issue because Talent has consistently expressed his opposition to stem cell research and the state conveniently had the issue on the ballot.
BTW, Rush only has one brother, David. He is a well-known columnist and author and I seriously doubt that he was a candidate for the Missouri State Supreme Court last November.

Rush's uncle (and/or cousin) is a judge, I believe.
