It is funny how it always depends on whose ox is gored on how people perceive other opinions or statements. This has become a major source of entertainment for me during this political season. I get a smattering of Limbaugh, Hannity, and Levin at the various times I'm in my car during the day. Levin is the only one who has clearly lined up in a certain corner. The other two are still in the "bob and weave" mode for the most part.
The strongest thing I've heard from Rush on Cruz are statements about being the most conservative candidate. I've also heard Rush admire the way Trump has handled the media with his non-PC approach. Hannity has really been the most difficult one to classify because he's been pretty scrupulous on the on-air time for every candidate.
One good thing to come out of all this is the exposure of “conservatism” as being a subjective term more than an objective one.
Before anyone flames me, to attempt to clarify- the Establishment has had us in a box all along. They’ve told us what conservative values are and they scorned anyone who dared think outside that box. And now we find that they’ve created that box so that we wouldn’t pay attention to what was going on outside those box parameters to enrich themselves. They could control us by holding the things up in the box like a carrot for us to fight over. And all the while they were operating outside the box with the guys from the other box.
maybe someone will understand what I’m trying to say and say it better.

It is not so much the way Rush is treating Trump, it is the condescending way he treats Trump supporters that call in. He goes to great lengths to try and explain to the Trump Pests that they are just too slow to get it. Many of us have attended the University of Democracy for 28 years and yet we are too stupid to understand the professor. Yeah Right.
