I normally listen to Rush for about 7 hours during the week. 2 hours some days, 1 hour some days.

This week is now over. I've listened for less 2 hours total for the week.

Want to guess why?

You realized he's an insufferable blowhard?

I agree with Rush 95% of the time, but the man is dishonest, and I am, therefore, alienated by him and shan't listen to his program anymore. I prefer to hear the words of a man with whom I disagree 60% of the time but exhibits scathing honesty and conviction, even when his views make me cringe and call him a fricking idiot.

Too many callers about how great his books are.

Last half hour is nothing but a long book review/commercial,.

Stopped listening to Rush about 15 years ago. Apart from some clever humor segments (the Homeless Update, with Clarence Frogman Henry's "Ain't Got a Home" playing in the background was stellar!), it just got to be the same thing over and over again.

So just tell us why you didn't listen as much as you normally do.

I used to listen to him during the Clinton years. I really don't listen to any talk show hosts anymore, especially not political ones.

Why? Even though I agree with a lot of the ideas of Rush/Hannity/Levin/Berry et al, every single one of them are "everything or nothing" people. If you agree with 99 percent of what they say and disagree with 1 percent of what they say, you might aas well be a commie pinko liberal.

I like to listen to people who have realistic, workable ideas that could actually be put into place by elected politicians. These blowhards live in utopia, whereas I live in reality.

He talks touch much about his books. He is not the same guy anymore. I think he is bored with the show these days.

Earlier this week, a caller was gushing about the books and how much his granddaughter enjoyed them. More than once, he mentioned how his granddaughter was afraid that Rush wouldn't call them back so she was excited he called her. I think many of the book calls are staged and are basically commercials.

On today's show, he was talking about how diverse Louisiana politicians have been (Jindal, Blanco, Mary, etc.) and said that New Orleans hasn't had a white mayor in a long time. Oooops!
