Caller #1 was certainly correct, that used to really get my gaul when he would pose for the cameras as he left church. So phony. Thanks to Rush, I have been able to keep a somewhat steady course.
I think talk radio was a phenomena that "stealthed in" under the opposition's radar- it became popular before they were aware of it and able to mount a campaign against it. We have back to back conservative shows here, with Neil Boortz as a nice Libertarian complement to it.
I do know that a lot of people listen to these shows. It has to help!
