Remembering Rush

 It was two years ago today that Rush Limbaugh died. He and I were best of friends beginning in October of 1989. Some of his best quotes:

”You know why there’s a Second Amendment? In case the government fails to follow the first one.”

“Let me tell you who we conservatives are: we love people. When we look out over the United States of America, when we are anywhere, when we see a group of people, such as this or anywhere, we see Americans. We see human beings. We don’t see groups. We don’t see victims.”

”Bigot: A person who wins an argument with a liberal.”

”Now, what is the left’s worldview in general? What is it? If you had to attach not a philosophy but an attitude to a leftist worldview, it’s one of pessimism and darkness, sadness. They’re never happy, are they? They’re always angry about something. No matter what they get, they’re always angry.”

”Liberals measure compassion by how many people are given welfare. Conservatives measure compassion by how many people no longer need it.”

”Character matters; leadership descends from character.”

”I keep half my brain tied behind my back, as always, my friends, just to make things fair here.”

”Compassion is no substitute for justice.”
