[capt. norm]

Bump for the "Godfather of Talk Radio".

[veronica]

Mega-dittos and an EIB bump for the all-knowing all-seeing Maha Rushie. My guru. Long may he prosper and have all of his hearing returned when he has his surgery.

[FreeTally]

You need some knee pads.

[BibChr]

Well said — and it is well that you said it.

On a personal level, I shall never forget how he lifted my spirits after the disastrous '92 election.

Dan

[veronica]

Do something constructive with those sour grapes, make some whine.

[stevio]

He opened my eyes. God bless him.

[Jean S]

Long may he prosper and have all of his hearing returned when he has his surgery.

Dittos. I don't listen to Rush every day because his ego sometimes gets in the way on his show. And when he talks about his golf game, I turn him off. But his is a true conservative and I almost always agree with him.

And FreeTally, just because one is a fan of Rush doesn't mean they're wearing kneepads.

[FreeTally]

These wee your words, babe: Mega-dittos and an EIB bump for the all-knowing all-seeing Maha Rushie. My guru.

"All knowing, all seeing"? "My guru"? You need help.

I listened to Rush on a daily basis from 1993 to 1995(the good days). I stopped when he refused to address real conservative issues such as NAFTA, GATT, gun control and private property rights. He essentially mimics what most rational, intelligent people know, but he has corporate bosses to answer to. He is so full of himself I cant stand to even look at the man. Sure, he has done a lot for talk radio and (so-called)conservatism, but you dont have to have an orgasm over the mere mention of his name.

[Lucky2]

Rush truly deserves to be among the conservative greats. His thoughtful, concise and intellegent discussions what is wrong and right in our country is what we all need to hear. God bless you Maha Rushie, you're the best.

[FreeTally]

And FreeTally, just because one is a fan of Rush doesn't mean they're wearing kneepads.

I made that comment based upon veronicas "All knowing, all seeing" and "guru" comments. She sounds just like Katie Couric and such.

[veronica]

It's clear you do not listen to him now.

All knowing all seeing is part of HIS schtick, and he is my political guru. I happen to think he is very wise.

If you are not a fan so be it. Why bother commenting at all?

[what's up]

Rush is a true hero.

He has lifted millions and millions of American spirits in the Great Culture War.

He continues on...and always with great humor. God Bless him!

[saminfl]

Notice that FreeTally hasn't listened to Rush in at least 6 years. There are a lot of people on this forum who don't listen to Rush but claim to be experts on what he is thinking. Rush explained his views on NAFTA and GATT, apparently, FreeTally wasn't able to refute them, so he just quit listening.

[eskimo]

As far as I’m concerned, the giants of modern day conservatism are William Buckley, Milton Friedman, Ronald Reagan, and Rush Limbaugh.

What is "modern day conservatism".

[Tribune7]

Levin is no slouch himself. I always thought he should get his own talk show.

[b4its2late]

Dittos. Well written.

[b4its2late]

Mega-dittos and an EIB bump for the all-knowing all-seeing Maha Rushie. My guru. Long may he prosper and have all of his hearing returned when he has his surgery.

I'll 2nd that.

[Basil314]

The new Queen of Conservative Radio

Laura Ingraham

[blackbart1]

Thank you JeanS, Mark R. Levin couln't be more right about Rush.

Rush was a vocal critic last spring of the timidity of the GOP House tax-cut plan, authored by Ways and Means Committee Chairman Bill Thomas (R.-Calif.). Thomas, having been cowed by the class warfare propaganda of the Democrats, rejected conservative efforts to cut retroactively all income tax rates—including those in the higher brackets.

(Ashamedly)Bill is my representative. Arghhhhrrrr. I heard Rush when Bill called and, of course, Rush couldn't be horn swaggled. heh heh

Rush is a Lion, He is THE King of radio and political thought.
