if Rush weren't now so duplicitous.

I disagree. I think Rush is quite sincere. And his criticisms aren't all bad. I think he has gone overboard in the last few weeks, especially since CFR, but I believe he believes what he says and has no hidden motive.

I'm becoming more and more of a Dubya fan -- despite CFR --as his term progresses. I think God was really looking out for this country in Florida in November 2000.

But I guess I could turn on Dubya too, especially if he starts appointing pro-aborts to the bench -- something he has courageously refrained from doing.

I admit, that I have gone for months / weeks, NOT listening to Rush, and haven't listened to him, when I do, for the full three hours, in many years, now. Lately, whenever I've had him on, he is bashing Bush; not ONE word about his unsigning the ICC, ot any other positive move. Yesterday, he appologised , to TWO callers, for not even having thought about, the favorable pointm that each had raised about the president. NOT EVEN GIVEN A THOUGHT TO ? Of course not ... Rush is far too busy thinking about the next trashing session, or some rather silly , off the wall thing, such as that guy , who bought the lake, and built a wall. There's a thread on FR, as well ; however, FR also has posts that are hard news items.

In 1989 and 1990, Rush bashed Dems, the eccoterrorists / enviros,peacenicks PETA , condoms in schos, abortion rights advocates, and a whole host of others ; he did NOT spend day agefter day, after day, after day after endless, weary day, bashing President GHW Bush, nine ways to Sunday ! Those were the days, that I spent listening to him every day, three hours a day.

When the Senate failed to throw X42 out, Rush didn't spend day after day, week after week, month after month trashing the Senate GOPers ! Why not , if he is oh sooooooo " principled " and upset with this President Bush now ?

OTOH, Sean Hannity has some disagrements, with some of the things that President Bush has done. He talks about them, and then moves on. He also talks about the " good " / right things, which this president has done. Thats the way to do it; that's principled !

There isn't a president who has / will ever do 100 % of what his supporters want him to do . If he manages to get 50 % done, that's a miracle ! Frankly, I can't think of one , NOT ONE , president, who accomplished even 50 % of what his party platform stood for / he said he'd like to do, as a candidate . Can you ?

President Bush has been a GOD send ! If Gore had pulled it off, in 2000 , we might all be agreeing here ( LOL, maybe not. ), but life would be an absolute disaster, with little hope of EVER turning the clock back, on anything .
