I’d like to read that essay. I’ll see if it’s online. To be honest, I don’t think Rush is a neocon. I also have never heard him talk about the civil war. He is certainly against the flag ban - and is, surprisingly, Mark Levin. Now going to look to this essay!
One of his callers was going on about the North went to war freeing slaves blah blah blah and Rush shut him up and quoted Lincoln about freeing none of the slaves and preserving the union. He also said the South wanted to be left alone to do their own thing, states rights.
Rush's pre show prep is Freeping of this I am convinced.
“To be honest, I don’t think Rush is a neocon”
I don’t either but sometimes he shows their influence. One reason being that for a long time Rush appeared to be clueless what they were about and that some of them harbor a dislike for pre-Reagan America. They were happy Cold War liberal Democrats until the isolationist McGovern and the inept Carter crew took over their party.
I’m glad you found it. It’s a great essay but unfortunately we can’t link to it.
