Remembering "The Big Voice on the Right"
Steyn Online ^ | 08/23/2021 | Mark steyn

Posted on 08/23/2021 8:46:26 PM PDT by Kevin in California

With that in mind, I thought you might like to take a three-quarter-of-an-hour break from America's Suez moment and enjoy this finale to our friend James (Snerdley) Golden's series Rush Limbaugh: The Man Behind the Golden EIB Microphone. For this postscript, James has collated various vignettes from the life of America's anchorman, as told by yours truly, Rudy Giuliani, Megyn Kelly, Scott Baio, Mary Matalin and others. It's a timely reminder of who and what we're missing right now. Click below to listen:

Indeed we miss Rush, I have been listening to James' tributes via podcast to Rush, so much nostalgia after years listening to him.

Damn, Rush is a much better place then we are right now and I know he is weeping for our once great country.

Before I retired I would hurry through my office time so I could get into my work truck and listen to Rush. After I retired I used to wake up and hurry and get my self ready to listen to Rush. Really miss him.

Retired now. I was looking forward to listening to Rush uninterrupted. Are there ways to broadcast his past shows one subject at a time? Most of his issues are timeless and every one of his shows had ‘official’ listeners/observers. It’s called cut and paste.

Me too. I was so hooked on Rush that, back in the 90’s, I actually started a fan web site called “Dittoheadquarters.”

I haven’t listened to talk since. I can only imagine how he’d talk about Afghanistan

Aww Rush. God I miss him. Would have loved to hear his often hilarious but brutally truthful forensic analysis of the horrendous unfolding disaster of the “Biden-Harris” administration. Gone too soon sir.

Yes, he was just a radio talk show host, but as the country is slipping away, there was comfort in his voice saying not to give up.

After listening, I can’t see the screen so well. Mrs. cutting an onion I think.

Thank You for sharing!

God Bless the United States of America!

Gosh, I miss Rush!

He was the voice of sanity so many times, and I loved his sense of humor. I need him badly.

Rush said it best. Talent ON LOAN from GOD.

Looked at from that perspective we can see where he was coming from and the good he intended for us and the Country.

Loans always come due. We were here to appreciate it as long as it lasted. Thanks be to God as Rush would have wanted the praise to be.

Rush pumped out his Libertarian views but not necessary Conservative values. Big difference.

He had a way to talk me off the cliff . I need to be talked off the cliff now. When I was working I’d have a radio on in my office, never missed his show and when I retired he was on every day . Long, long time listener.
