Is Rush extreme? Would anyone here, deny the positive and the 'good' of Rush's being on air and sharing his ideals of Conservatism and for so many years? Does anyone here, now think he is now; not worth the air waves he speaks from; because he departs at 'some point' with viewers who do not like just 'one' of his choices; one of his ideas? It is not a straw man issue. It may be closer to 'throwing the baby out with the bathwater' however; whereby, we end up with 'no baby'. And for some here; that seems okay - unfortunately.
No agrees l00% with what ANY candidate says; and arguing that because a candidate does not agree with one; l00% - while discounting all the positives that otherwise would not come into play; should Obama remain - is just self-defeating; IMHO.
Of course, no one is 100% perfect . . .but some candidates clearly have a more perfect vision for America; than do others. Or at least, a greater skill set in acheiving the highest goals they set forth.
In which case; we should at least, want the best available.
Rush should talk up Santorum to see if he can move any of our intransigents.
