I have been a listener of Rush Limbaugh since March of 1989. I was a proud peddler who drove 70,000 miles a year. This amount of windshield time let me get intimately acquainted with my radio. My territory was out of the range of WGN Chicago so, more often than not, it was impossible to pick up my beloved Cubs. Aside from an occasional CD of Jim Morrison's greatest hits, Patsy Cline, Shania Twain and a beautiful CD by a lovely young lady, Enya, I don't listen to music. Whoops! I gotta throw in disco, too. I like it. I can't tell you the singers but I do like the rhythm. It was at this time, scanning, that I found and became a devotee of the "Doctor of Democracy". Can you believe he was doing a parody song about Barney Frank? It was something about "up, up and away in my beautiful balloon." Either that or the song, "my boy lollipop". I started laughing and haven't stopped since.
If someone paid me by the hour for the time I've put in with Rush I'd have enough to own a 747 jet. Today he was at his best. His take on the Obama presidency is he doesn't want him to succeed. If this happens then every liberal program from Obama, Pelosi, and Reid will be instituted. If you're on our side do you really want total tax regulation, control of industry, education, abortion on demand, airwaves regulation, etc.? According to Mr. Limbaugh if European style Universal Health Care is established we will have lost the battle. Once in, never out. We will be completely and totally socialistic. Even some mealy-mouthed Republicans are being forced to say, "he has to succeed for the country to make it". That sounds like politically correct nonsense. Another of Rush's points: why do we have to support Obama? Did the Left support Bush? Not from day 1. Did the Left support Reagan? Never. Stupid questions I know. What about Clarence Thomas. Was he supported by the Democrats and the left? Absolutely not. He was demonized by the press and by the Left. Funny how, eight years after a joke about a coke can we had to make light of real scandal and the Left decided it was "only about sex". And Thomas, just like Obama, is black. Where was the black leadership in support of Thomas? Oh, I remember, Thomas was a conservative so there wasn't any. Limbaugh's position is it's idealogy, not racism. As for bipartisanship, we don't need it. For democrats bipartisanship means republicans cave.
For the most part, Rush covered the white/black situation today; the idea that we are a racist nation is silliness. I know most of you didn't hear his program because you have something I don't. It's called a job. Not to worry. You can go to his web site tomorrow. He'll have his monologue all typed out for you. It's superb. One of his best ever.
