' Rush has turned his back on the GOP and furthermore I'm pretty sure doing it because of business reasons and not out of principle.

When he got his implant and could hear again one of his first ordersof business was to repudiate Dubya and the GOP.

It was during a sweeps period and you can't tell me that he didn't do it ot start a buzz and boost his listenership.

Limbaugh has to attract liberals to his ESPN gig. He can't afford to alienate half the viewing audience,so he has to burnish his anti Republican bona fides, by running down everyone and anything, associated with the party.In his interview with Sports Illustrated,Limbaugh said he believes the ESPN spot is just the beginning of his football career.
