“Rush has been an influential voice for conservatism for many, many years. Long before the rise of the cultists.”
How did we ever manage to elect Ronald Reagan while Rush was spending his time as promotions guy for the Kansas City Royals? Somehow we were able to accomplish this before the Conservative Entertainment Complex arrived on radio and cable television.
Someone once checked up on Rush’s voting history. He was first able to vote in the 1972 election, the same as me. But Rush never bothered to register to vote until 1988, meaning that he never once voted for Reagan. His interest in politics seems to track most closely with his ability to make money off of it and not out of any commitment to it.
Yup, I did not know that about his voting record. Very telling, that in a nut shell is all anyone needs to know about Rush.
