And you couldn't be more wrong. He comes from a very long line of conservative, politically active parents and grand parents. His brother is a conservative author.

I know his family history, too. And I believe he would have gone the other way for the money if he had to do it.

I enjoy his show, mind you.

I listened to him until about 20 years ago. When he was the only guy out there, he was funning, entertaining. Now that he has competition, he tries to out kook his competitors.

I was driving to the LSU game and for whatever reason he was on so it was the first time in a long time so I listened. Some doctor (former military) was out of breath trying to tell us how the gov't is lying and we're all doomed. So Rush went to a commercial break to let the guy catch his breath.

So then he comes back and the guy goes on and on and on until Rush realizes what he's saying... The govt is telling us we can't get Ebola during the first 21 days when they person is symptomatic... it's less than a 1% chance but still they're not telling us!

Rush said "wait a minute! less than 1% chance?!?" And the guy says yeah but it could happen and Obama hates America and he doesn't care if it's spread here. So then Rush catches himself, clears his throat and says.. um yes.. yes that's right... it's very dangerous and the govt should not be exposing us to that threat. Even he didn't believe it.

20 years ago he'd laugh that guy off the air.
