Just can't allow anyone else to be exposed to it, can you?  No surprises
there -- you look like one of the pro-censorship types.

To you, who may never have been within 1500 kilometers of Kelley (and
hopefully, no closer than the 320 or so you are to me):  are you one of
those folks who likes to think he has the ability to read minds?
If so, I suspect you're failing miserably in this case.  Unlike you, I don't
pretend to know Kelley well enough to be talking trash about him.

>You know something, I agree with him for many reasons. I think for myself,   
>unlike you who believes EVERYTHING on TV.

Gee, I don't believe in "EVERYTHING on TV" -- don't even watch it all that
much -- and my opinion (not a fact, as you're fond of stating, just *my
opinion*, dammit) is that Rush's ego needs to be deflated with a few jabs
from a screwdriver.  I'm obviously not a DittoHead, since I dare to disagree
with your hero...

>May God make his wrath known to you, you insignificant scumbag!

I think it'd be more fitting, if he *did* bother to show up, to tell you to
leave well enough alone and let him do the judging bit...

Humble?  *You*?  I'd never have guessed it if you hadn't been so kind as to
inform us.

>And another thing: Rush was around when Carter was President! And his ratings
>were the highest in his old market. 

Wow.  I was around during Carter's Presidency, too -- got my bachelor's
degree at UH four months into his term.  So what's your point?
(He wasn't in Sacto *that* long ago -- if I remember right, at that time
he'd have been in Cape Girardeau...and being #1 in a market that size
doesn't mean a whole lot.  As a matter of fact, that and 85c will get you
downtown on Metro...

--PLH (I listen occasionally, myself -- he's usually guaranteed to shoot
himself in the foot, sooner or later.  He's always good for a chuckle in
that department.)
