Nolte: Rush Limbaugh Is Irreplaceable

A few years back a friend and I were catching up, talking about everything from old times to politics. At one point we got to talking about talk radio, how it shaped our thinking, and how our respective jobs now make it difficult to tune in like we used to. And then my buddy said something I thought perfectly captured what Rush Limbaugh means to tens of millions of us.

“I don’t get to listen to Rush as much as I’d like,” he said. “But I sure feel better knowing he’s out there.”

My friend didn’t say that as though he had given it a moment’s thought, or like he was saying something profound. It was just an offhand comment about the way he felt, but it immediately struck me as a nail hit on the head.

Since 1989, the unwritten rule in this house is that if you have the opportunity to listen to Rush Limbaugh, you listen to Rush Limbaugh; if you’re in the car between noon and three, you listen to Rush Limbaugh. In fact, because we live in the sticks and often travel an hour or two from home, the presets on the car radio are there for only one purpose: to ensure that as soon as our local station goes to static, and regardless of which direction we’re headed, with the touch of a button we don’t miss a word.

Unfortunately, we don’t get to listen to Rush as much as we used to, as much as we’d like, but we sure feel better knowing he’s out there.

Agree, Steyn is pretty good. It’s just a fact. there is only one Rush.

[Buckeye McFrog]

No, he’s not replaceable.

But if the worst happens somebody needs to step-up and carry the ball.

America can’t do without that.

A couple months go, I remember talking with my neighbor about who had the ability to replace Trump.

Rush is the only one we thought who may be able to fill those shoes.

He’s not just irreplaceable, but his Rush Revere history books are great for kids. I would love to see more conservatives write books for economics, business and government for kids. We can’t let Communists control our kids. We need to fight for our schools...
