I still have a couple of problems with your post. First of all - since when has Rush had to pull a "stunt" to get ratings. His rating have been consistently high for 14 years, and have only increased since 9-11. I don't buy your "ratings-stunt" theory ... it just doesn't add up.

Secondly, George W. Bush, while an excellent President, is not Christ. He has made mistakes in office, and he diverged from his conservative roots for a while. With the signing of the CFR Bill, the Farm Bill and the implementation of Steel Tariffs - how can anyone possibly disagree? These items are NOT conservative, and they should have been summarily vetoed.

Rush only pointed out the minor failings of our illustrious President. He did not abandon ship - but he did not accept liberal infiltration of a Republican President. As far as I can tell, Rush was entirely consistent in his criticism of Bush, just as he is in his genuine support of many Republican causes. The Republican Party is generally correct on most issues - but it is far from perfect. Its members have been known to sway now an then - and it is good for commentators like Rush and Hannity to keep them in line.

Bull!

Rush spent the better part of a week bitterly denouncing Bush for some mild comments Dubya made criticising Israel for it's offensive into the West Bank.

Never mind that Bush was attempting to keep the whole damned Middle East — especially Jordan — from boiling over and never mind that Bush never did anything concrete to force Israel to withdraw.

As for Bush signiung the farm bill et al, these are piddling matters compared with our war against radical Islam and Bush can't allow himself to get bogged down in a series of battles over domestic issues, especially when some of the major bills would have been passed over his veto.

Make no mistake, this war against the Islamic terrorists will determine whether the West will survive and the outcome is far from certain.

Look at Europe; France, Holland, Belgium and the Scandinavian countries may well become Muslim nations within the lifetimes of today's children.

If Bush can be today's Charles Martel we may not need tomorrow's el Cid.
