Coordinated Avalanche Against Newt Doesn't Match My Memory of Reagan Years
The full transcript is there. That is probably the most time he has spent on any one candidate thus far in a segment, and it is all defending against these attacks.
Please. If we look more closely, we notice Rush simply reports on the attacks. He does NOT defend Newt FROM the attacks. In fact, he brushed off the magnitude of the full conservative assault on Newt, by trailing off on how Myth is being attacked by the left, and then wondered back to Newt, and then broke the pace up with his comments on his stupid tea! Then it was a commercial interruption. Come on, this guy is a master at timing and excellence. The closest Rush came that I heard was that speaking of all this, was when he incidentally mentioned, that “this” was not the Newt he remembers, speaking on some of the attacks. Then he goes into repeating them. Sheesh to Rush!
Did you not listen today? He was defending him left and right. He played soudbytes of Nancy Reagan praising Newt, he talked about his own experiences learning about Newt, he quoted Reagan officials who liked Newt, and so on... He may not have used the exact words you wanted, but the overall theme today was defense of unwarranted attacks.

I no longer trust Rush. Each to their own, but when this election is over, I will no longer listen to his show.
It bothers me to say that, because I have been with him from the beginning.
