Libs on facebook are posting a pic showing:

GOOD RUSH— (the rock band)

BAD RUSH— (El Rushbo)

yuck.


That's funny because Neil Peart, drummer and lyricist for Rush the rock band has dabbled in the philosophies of Ayn Rand like objectivism and libertarianism. The GOOD RUSH is closer politically to the "BAD RUSH" than they are the libs on Facebook.

As of fact I remember that Rush the band made some nice comments about Rush Limbaugh when Rush first came on the national scene in the early nineties. I can't remember exactly what was said but Peart and Co. didn't reject Rush out of hand like a knee jerk liberal would.

Geddy Lee’s parents lived through the holocost, if I remember correctly, and so I believe he has a particular sensitivity to freedom in all its forms and facism’s effect on it.

2112 is all about individual liberty, but I think written by Neil - “We are from the galactic federation and we have assumed control....”

I had a good friend who loved Rush (The band). I knew he was big liberal. I “complimented” him once on his Rush concert hat about how open minded he’s becoming, favoring Limbaugh like that. He got this disgusted look on his face and threw the hat into the back seat of the car he was driving. Where it stayed for months.
