- 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.

- 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....
