to all those people who feel like rush leads a bunch of 'blind' followers, i
should ask you..what type of people do you think followed ross perot?! my god!
talk about sheep! he was no more worthy of presidential consideration than i am
! even those who voted for clinton (all 4 out of 10 of you) mostly did so be-
cause he wasn't george bush. he has no agenda worth pursuing. he is one of the
only presidents i can think of who wasn't elected because of his policies. by
the way..what are his policies? he doesn't even know. the only thing i do know
about it is that his policies are whatever hillary's policies are.
anyway, what liberals don't understand is that rush illustrates absurdity by
being absurd. liberals can't understand that. they have so much trouble laughin
g at themselves once in a while that they take everybody and everything way too
 seriously-including rush limbaugh. they still don't get it, do they?

No I don't think so. Rush requires his 'followers' to stop thinking
for themselves since he will tell you the TRUTH. I guess that's what
makes the difference between Rush followers and people who are
willing to thin for themselves. Rush makes people feel good when
they need it. Nothing bad about that but it gets scary when those
same people start worshipping him like a 'God'. Come on people Rush
is an entertainer who uses sentiments present in the right wing, who
are in need for some comfoty, to bash liberals using far fetched
arguments. Sure when you believe Rush you might think he is the
greatest thing since sliced bread. But he is just someone who is
imitating conservatives to make a few bucks.

That means there is room for the gerbils.... (This is a joke to
those people who have been following Hollywood rumours)

I like to listen to Rush because he is so funny and he is using such
stupid arguments. I have to admit it, I do it for an ego-trip. His
attacks on liberals is so funny and so far fetched it actually make
s me proud not to be a conservative. I like to hear different
opinions, unlike some of the worshippers of the mighty Rush.
And why shoudl I read some fish conference somewhere ? Rush itself
smells fishy enough for me....
