I understand full well what they do, how they hold an audience and why 90% what they spew is entertainment and does not pass for serious discourse on policy issues. When the battle over the repeal of DADT took place other than occasional perfunctory comments about the military not to be used for social experimentation both Rush and Hannity were UA. No Elaine Donnelly, no comments on false polling data out of the DoD. Not one mention on the policy ramifications, costs or moral implications of the repeal. Rush did not even provide a passing comment. I listen to them every day thinking they would pick up on what was really about to happen. I was wrong just silence. They are entertainers and the entertainment industry is pro-gay. Their silence spoke volumes. I expected to read that Rush was bored with it all needed new challenges and was thinking of retiring. Reading that his Achilles heal was the gay issue was old news. Rush avoids real discussions on gay issues like it was cancer. I no longer listen to Hannity, Rush and myriad of others “conservative” talkers because I discovered that even navel gazing would be a far better use of my time that listening to them. If I want to kill brain cells scotch goes down far better than hearing you're a “great American” 10 times in 10 minutes. I am not some single issue idiot but this issue is personal as is the attack on military retirees, veterans and servicemen, another issue given lip service. Do not get me wrong listening to any liberal talking head makes finger nails on a chalk board sound like Mozart.
