Having been accused of being a Bushbot, I think I'm entitled to speak on this subject.

I don't totally agree that Rush sets out to bash Bush at every opportunity. I think it just works out that way because:

1. Bush is a brilliant politician and Rush is not.

2. Bush has around him a brilliant team and Rush does not.

3. Bush is not prone to juspeebee (see previous posts) and Rush is.

Rush is just being his big, lovable self and it comes off as very unlovable sometimes.

When Rush annoys me? Easy. Click.

" ...it comes off as very unlovable sometimes."

Right.My beef with Rush is his source material. Today,he used a column by Ann Gearan as his accelerant to light the Bush bonfire.He lets himself get suckered by these liberal columnists time and time again. They write a column saying that Bush has betrayed conservatives and Rush treats the columns like gospel.Rush gives more credence to the columnists than he does to the Bush administration. Apparently, the Republicans in the Senate are backing Bush and the Democrats are angry about the filing. From today's Las Vegas Sun :
" Democrats say they plan to repeatedly confront Republicans with Bush's decision. On Friday, Senate Democratic Leader Tom Daschle of South Dakota requested a Senate resolution supporting the university in the Supreme Court case.

However, Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania, the Senate's third-ranked Republican, objected to Daschle's motion, and Sen. Don Nickles, R-Okla., said Republicans were readying a resolution in support of the president.

"What the administration has done ... is try to focus on trying to provide opportunities for all without putting forward discriminatory impediments to people simply because of their gender, their ethnic background or their race," Santorum said.

Bush's decision to oppose Michigan's admission policies was the Democrats' major focus at the Friday morning forum."

Santorum and Nickles are supporting the President,Daschle,Levin and Hillary are angry-sounds like Bush did the right thing!
