I still don't get how Rush got so sloppy?
I used to think that Rush was a political analyst who was entertaining. Now I believe he is an entertainer who has an interest in politics. IMO, that's the only way to explain what he's been doing. He wants controversy. He wants an audience.
Unfortunately for him, unless he realizes what he's really done, and does some serious backtracking, he's going to lose a large piece of his most loyal listeners.
