I wish Rush would use more of the Paul Shanklin songs. They are so funny.

Yes I wish he would revert to the humor-based format he used in the 80’s and 90’s and not the current format of monologue, bloviate, pitch books, sell tea, bloviate some more, take two calls and then finish with a commentary segment that is actually a live-read ad.

He overdid it for a while, and Shanklin did better with the Clintons than with the Obamas.

I miss the classic Update Themes (Paloma Blanca, verious versions of "You Don't Own Me", "Born Free" and of course "Ain't Got No Home"). I wrote Rush once, suggesting "Speedy Gonzales" ("Speedy Gonzales, why doncha come home?") as the "illegal alien" update, but he didn't take me up on it.

I know... I really miss those. He said years ago he doesn't use them as much anymore because he is deaf. Well... no offense, Rush, but most of your listeners are not deaf, and would *really* would like to hear Shanklin's clever songs.
