I respect your opinion but the guy has never been humble.. when under attack use whatever means neccessary to fight the media war. He could of said "thanks for the emails, letters, and call in's with support." End of story.. instead he'll use numbers to "shock and awe" his audience. Sad.. again.. in my opinion.

When you get your own radio show and have about 600 stations broadcasting your comments 3 hours a day, I’ll listen to your advice on what Rush should have said. So far your broadcasting is limited to yapping at Rush’s heels .. from a far corner of the planet.

After reading your comments, it struck me that your screen name is appropriately translated as “candy ass.”

Well, these numbers could be considered 'great' or. . .'small'; depends on personal reference. For Rush's enemies; they might well believe and probably do. . .that 45,000 is not much considering his audience. . .they would be the first to offer as well, that he probably recieved 'TWO' if he just gave a non-specific 'thank-you'.

Of course, bottom line, if you do not like Rush; he will not 'win' by any scenario.

As for his lack of humility; much of that is 'show' and 'tongue and cheek' as for the rest; well. . .he does acknowledge everyday his talent; and it's origin. :^)

On the contrary. Rush is very humble. The traditional bravado is an act. Sean Hannity was just saying today that Rush is incredibly generous in ways that he has never published or mentioned. Rush was incredibly gracious publicly toward ESPN and those cohosts of his, while they trashed him in public the minute he was out of sight. That contrast shows you we are dealing with a man of character.

He is mortal. But he is a good man, a man with a heart, a man with incredible courage, and he has soared on the wings of his success as well as paid dearly for it.

Prayers are going up for you always, Rush. I hope you have some real-life support system around you now when you need it the most.
