    According to Rush those few individuals are dangerous because they 
set the agenda of the feminist movement (disregarding for the moment the 
fact that most rank-and-file feminists think they're nutburgers too). To 
me this seems like a striking parallel to the left-wing furore against 
Rush himself - people saying that of course *they* know when Rush is pulling 
their leg, but that they're concerned that all the "mindless" dittoheads 
are going to be misled. IMHO both the strident anti-Rush people and the 
strident anti-feminazi people should give a little more credit for 
intelligence to the respective groups they're afraid are being misled.

    No, but recall (again according to Rush) that the leaders of all those 
movements are "all the same people". Thus, there are probably more than 12 
or 13 of them in order to cover all those interests, but at last count I 
thought that Rush had changed his Feminazi census to say that there are 
actually about 25 or so. That's enough to cover all those groups and to 
even allow for a couple days off every month.

>So, why *does* Rush Limbaugh continue to scream? Reminds me of the ole
>Wolf Man at XERF sometimes. 

    Yeah, screaming made Wolf Man really popular; it also made him a lot
of money. And you wonder why Rush continues to scream?

Don't you get it yet.  Basic human nature is to be competitive.  Some people 
are more competitive and ambitious than others.  Granted some people start 
out with the deck stacked in their favor.  However, given two people who start 
out with the same opportunities and resources, most often one will achieve 
more success than the other.

I am surprised.. Does one have to listen to Rush to help
Conservative people accept the  defeat. It's now more than ever that
we have to stop their raving and insulting arguments and should help
them get used to liberalism and social responsibilities (ouch).
Don't worry I won't abandon all of you until they find a cure.

	The difference, of course, is that all of quayles gaffes have
been recorded in black and white, and the VP has given his critics and
rich stock of evidence agruing for his intellectual vapidity. 
	Gore, on the other hand, has always proven himself an
extremely intelligent man.  Besides, he's at least someone whose
vision of America is one that includes all American's. Ol' Danny Boy
would rather see the whole country become a country club of some sort.
Maybe just one big golf course.
	If the only thing you can find to pick on Gore about is his
concern for the environment, then that's a much sadder statement about
you than it is abour our Vice President Elect.

    Maybe Rush is human after all, eh? I don't consider Rush's "Epitomy 
of Morality and Virtue" as anything other than part of the act, but I'm 
sure that this will be food for thought for a few dittoheads out there.

    That's a tempting conclusion to draw, but I think you're ignoring the 
simple fact that Kennedy jokes have great comedy value for conservatives 
in the same way that Quayle jokes have comedy value for us Commie-Libs.
I would write off Rush's Kennedy bashing as purely business interest, but 
I'd also add that this might go a long way in explaining why Rush hasn't 
sought public office. Can't you see it now? "If character isn't an issue, 
why isn't Rush Limbaugh president?"
