Rush's audience is conservative....and nobody's kidding me, his diatribe was designed to alienate Newt's base which was listening.
His research team must be working overtime to find every bit of minutia about Gingrich, no matter how old or obscure......and to throw it out over the air waves.
Romney gets nowhere near such treatment.
I turned him off right away.....and I'm a listener for 22 years. I agree with him 96.5 percent of the time....., but after listening to him this week I've come to the conclusion he's got an agenda.....and it ain't mine..

I concluded that Rush's agenda wasn't mine when he failed to discuss Obama's eligibility or vet the man in many important areas. I was done with Rush in 2008. That he is doing this to Newt, is mere confirmation that I was right in my first judgment.
Also....Since I don't listen to Rush, my bet was that on the Georgia eligibility court hearing this morning where Obama and his attorneys failed to show was.....CRICKETS!!!.....!!!
“When I turned on Rush he had started the second hour. From 5 minutes after the hour and for the next 10 minutes, he dredged up every negative thing he could about Newt in rapid-fire succession. It was a vicious and awful bill of particulars artfully wrapped up in a velvet glove.”
I don’t know how Rush can look in the mirror.
They’re all giving Romney a free pass.
So, where do conservatives go for news and perspective...now that Fox, Rush et al have sold out?
I was going to blog about this earlier and after I looked at what I had written, I decided to wait a day, after I calm down.
The liberals have won, Conservatism is dead, except for a few pockets like here on FR.
You know, Rush’s “I didn’t know about these Newt comments” doesn’t ring true. First I remember many of them. I just wouldn’t have been able to find or source them. But I do remember many. And if I recall, Rush even addressed some of them over the years. Again, I just don’t know where to source Rush’s comments on Newt’s comments through the years. So I don’t buy he was taken by surprise by the comments.
