There’s a common misperception out there that people who listen to Rush do so to have their opinions formed by him. Actually, the opposite is true. We already have our opinions and conservative principles. Rush is simply stating what we already believe.
Before I started listening to Rush, I would watch the news, and hear Peter Jennings or Tom Brokaw editorialize on something, and ask myself, “Am I the only one here who doesn’t see it that way?” I felt isolated in my opinions.
But then I started listening to Rush articulate my own opinions and I would realize that there are at least 20 million people out there who also have the same opinion. It’s very liberating to realize that you’re not alone in your beliefs, that there’s a groundswell of support out in the country for what you believe in.
haha...sounds like me living around the bay area.
In my teens I use to ask myself, ‘am I alone in how I think?’
