re: Do you listen to Rush Limbaugh's show?

He is a talented broadcaster and I was entertained when I did listen.


I did a bit in the late 80's and early 89's, off and on. Somewhere along the line he lost integrity, starting saying whatever he felt stroked his ego while at the same time made the listener feel he was agreeing with them. Have thought he was phony ever since.

For about 3 months, 3 years ago.

Schtick got old about that time. He is, by far, the most entertaining political host. But that's kind of like being the tallest midget.

My parents used to force feed it to me when I was younger. I don't know what station it comes on in Nola. I enjoy him though from time to time.

For not listening to Limbaugh? Insert intelligent in the place of sensitive. His schtick got old in the early 90's and all he does is validate the feelings of the relatively few who do listen to him. I don't need Limbaugh, Maddow, et al...to be informed.

No, for being offended at his arrogance over tongue n cheek comments.

I am not offended by anything he says. I don't know how anyone could listen to his schtick and not realize he is full of shite and just too partisan.

I don't think that was implied. I didn't define "better." Are you? Don't get your feelings hurt because some people feel he appeals to people who need to have their feelings validated by an entertainer.

I listen to him to gauge what the far right is thinking.

I actually think many ultra-lefties are scared to listen to him because he might actually make sense to them and they cannot have someone actually speak truth from the right.

I think it is funny when ultra-righties or lefties refuse to listen to extreme counter opinions...I think it has more to do with fear that they might be pursuaded than frustration with the message.

He is too partisan for me to say I like him, but he is actually correct on many issues and is much more intelligent and grounded than his counterparts on the left like Olbermann IMO.

Haven't heard anything from him in years other than when he makes news, but he is terrible. Worse than Hanity and just as bad as Beck, Olberman and that "chick" from msnbc.

Yes it was. Your post was dripping in condescension.

As is this. A statement which could be applied to anyone who listens to any political commentary.

Well, it seems you may have some issues yourself in this area if you feel it was condescending. Rush is a partisan hack, feels there are two simple sides and appeals to those who need validation.

Rush is like online porn, the industry is booming, but you can never find anyone that has actually looked at it!
