I'm neutral on Rush, I don't listen to him or any other talk show host i just don't care for them, he plays to his followers and makes a good living doing it just like the rest of them do, I can't fault them for it because nobody is forced to listen.

Rash Lamebrain gives conservatives a bad name. He is a lightening rod for liberal attacks, and we don't need that. Republicans need independent voters, and Lamebrain isn't helping any.

His career in the Monday night football booth didn't last long. His prescription drug abuse showed he was a hypocrite. His attempt to buy an NFL franchinse was laughable, since no black would play for him. His many divorces and his current very young wife show he is not a family values type of conservative.

I enjoy the way he upsets all the Lefties. If you listen to him on a regular basis, you would know that he says controversial things to keep the pot stirred, and most of the time his opinions are correct.

I love how he tweaks libs.

He controls the liberal/progressive media without them even knowing it.

And he is, of course, 99.6% correct in his political analysis.

He always seems to know what the libs will do before they do it.

Rush Limbaugh Mocks Chinese President Hu Jintao - The Note
Rush is an entertainer for the right wing and actually can outdo Ann Coulter when he makes up his own facts. I think he holds the world's record for oxycontin consumption at 30 big ones(160mg each) a day.

He is responsible for creating an atmosphere of hatred (along with Palin and their other buddies) that fuels incidents like the Arizona shootings. He is a hater beyond belief and people like him are an embarrassment to fellow Americans

His diatribe against China's leader was juvenile.rude and uncalled for,but typical no class limbaugh behavior, i guess it gave his flock of sheeple a good laugh..

Who might you be talking about? Rush is none of those things.

Since he is the Number 1 most listened to radio talk show in the entire country, it would seem like there are a majority of Americans who disagree with you and the rest of the libs on here, wouldn't it?

He has a huge audience. No liberal that has had a talk show has had anywhere near the audience, and none have lasted very long. There is a reason. Think on it.

He is just a paid propaganda mouthpiece for big business.
