Like so many people who come from humble beginnings, then rise to great fame and fortune, Limbaugh has gradually lost touch with the common man.
He lives in a rareified world of personal luxury and security, unknown to people like us. No matter what happens on the political stage, his nest is safe and feathered with down. Always will be.
I think it’s all become an intellectual exercise for Rush. Its why he seems unperturbed by events that raise the hackles on the rest of us. I think it’s also why he’s sometimes more interested in issues like ‘deflategate’, when far more pressing things are rattling the people’s nerves.
Notice that he’s not doing a thing to step up and take a bigger (and riskier) role in the nation’s affairs. Glenn Beck may be a nut, but he has stepped outside his personal bubble and put it all on the line, many times. Can’t say the same for Rush, who’s steadfastly remained in his ivory tower, pontificating from on high.

So very true.
Lol. I don't think that was Beck's choice. It was the voices in his head telling him to do it.
What this whole fiasco has shown us is that there are very few PATRIOTS left in the country. A lot of them are very good at faking it for the paycheck.
The one that kind of surprised me is Hannity—A true patriot. You can hear the righteous anger and concern in his voice.
