Another fan of Rush ... yes he is misquoted frequently. It's either on purpose or the liberals at AP or another news source (Huffington post is NOT news ... it's liberal hate speech) are idiots and they are too anxious to run a negative story on Rush. Remember the "I hope Obama fails" bit? He gave a speech for an hour and the media takes a 15 second sound bite out of context and twists it into essentially "Rush wants America to fail." That one had my mother in a rage for days.
But I don't listen to him much anymore ... once in a while if I have the day off and remember to tune in. Oh, and Rush made a list of the top 10 U.S. celebrities who give to charities ... the same list Oprah is on. Yeah, what a rotten prick he is.
Anyway, I like Glenn Beck better ... he's more positive and easier to like. And I don't think he's faking it. I think his alcoholism has humbled him ... and made him very emotional. That kind of thing happens to people who go through life-altering experiences (surviving cancer, loss of loved ones, etc ...) and come out humbled.
I love how liberal kids rant and rave about Rush, Hannity, Glenn Beck, etc ... They don't remember what it was like in the early 90s. There was no internet ... just a bunch of liberal newspapers, liberal news magazines and liberal TV news shows. You got one point of view ... period. Think that's good for democracy?
I used to tune into This Week with David Brinkley" Sunday morning just to hear George Will's (unusual) common sense once each week. It was slim pickins' in those days.
when i first saw glenn beck i thought his show was a joke...
