35 Undeniable Reasons
to Celebrate
Rush Limbaugh’s Birthday
by Chris Davis(Writer33)
It has been three long years since I wrote the essay: Rush Limbaugh is “The Passion.” His continued labors in conservatism have shown that Americans support the conservative ideology, largely because of their guiding principles, not the vehicle behind that ideology.
It is the same with Rush Limbaugh. A little over three years ago Rush Limbaugh announced his addiction to prescription drugs. The media, the Palm Beach County prosecuting attorney, and some conservatives were ready to march Limbaugh down the gang plank to the feasting sharks below. The facts of the case soon emerged, and they emerged with passion, leading me to write Rush Limbaugh is “The Passion.”
In an excerpt of that essay, I wrote: Everyday Rush withstands the assaults, he strengthens my resolve to praise him more and more. The more the liberals bash Rush the more I salute him. The more they harangue him the more I respect him. They cannot, nor will they ever, break my obstinate resolve. Instead, they have only succeeded in convincing me how corrupt, phony, and merciless they really are.
With Rush on the radio, I continue to conquer day after day, living in conservative principles, consumed with the fiery notion of my new life. I rebuke liberalism with special thanks to my educator. I love the life I have earned, as I pursue success after success, and eagerly wait another broadcast day of “The Passion.”
He continues to be steadfast in his approach, remaining on top of the radio world. Never has he been so popular. Never has he been as strong as he is today. Never has he been so steadfast in his conservative zeal. He is supported by Americans, conservative Americans that share those same guiding lessons he handed down. I am just one American, echoing those sentiments of these lessons taught by Rush Limbaugh.
There have been many reasons for wishing Rush Limbaugh a “Happy Birthday,” but there are thirty-five undeniable reasons to celebrate his birthday. Those reasons are:
* For enacting the new media and galvanizing the conservative movement.
* For the EIB Network.
* For advancing conservative talk radio and supporting hosts like Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Mark Levin and others.
* For proving that rugged individualism and self-reliance make Americans great.
* For proving that you can become wealthy through hard work, perseverance and dedication to success.
* For uncovering incompetence in the Palm Beach County Attorney’s office.
* For overcoming addiction and continuing broadcast excellence.
* For effectively explaining the benefits of tax cuts.
* For refuting liberalism on a daily basis.
* For hammering environmentalists and their defense of the Earth’s fragile ecosystem.
* For demonstrating that conservative principles are those principles that represent the majority of Americans.
* For supporting our troops and becoming a patriot, espousing America, representative government and freedom.
* For touting that Ronald Reagan was the greatest president of the 20th Century.
* For reporting the truth about Iraq.
* For blaming terrorists for murder.
* For reminding people of September 11, 2001.
* For promoting abstinence.
* For explaining the simplicity of punishing criminals.
* For explaining that America is the wealthiest nation on Earth and that our poor our not really impoverished.
* For demonstrating time and again that throwing money at education isn’t working.
* For stating, “There is a God.”
* For no longer “carrying the water” for Rhinos.
* For writing the “35 Undeniable Truths of Life,” and for airing that on the radio twice.
* For The Way Things Ought to Be and See, I Told You So.
* For defining MORALITY.
* For being a compassionate conservative.
* For laughing at himself, dispelling the myth that he is an elitist.
* For Rush Limbaugh the Television Show.
* For explaining that swift political reform can be disastrous.
* For touting the economic recovery through tax cuts and job creation.
* For explaining the ugly truth of feminism.
* For defining that pro choice means only one choice.
* For blasting judicial tyranny and defending Americans.
* For explaining that men and women are actually different.
* For injecting conservatism in up to 20 million listeners.
It is hard for some conservatives—those that have always been conservatives—to appreciate the true impacts of the accomplishments of Rush Limbaugh. Many can remember his first broadcasts. Many celebrate him, thanking him when they call on his show. There are those that still wish to throw him to the wolves because of imperfection. Those individuals have obviously never been locked within the suffocating grasp of liberalism. Those individuals choose not to understand his contributions to America and conservatism.
Never let it be said that we don’t appreciate Rush Limbaugh, and never let it be said that we don’t understand the impact he has had on America. Let it be said that Rush Limbaugh is one of the greatest of Americans, and that we—as conservatives—will be forever grateful for all that he has done and all that he will do.
So, today, January 12, 2006, I celebrate Rush Limbaugh’s birthday. It is a day that should be remembered, not because of the vanity of a birthday, but largely because of the importance it has to conservatism and the new media. True greatness comes along maybe once or twice in a lifetime. This greatness will be identified when history unfolds, and as one conservative American of many, we will do our best to record that greatness.
There have been two men that have raised me. One was my father, having an impact on my growth as an American man. The other is Rush Limbaugh, having an impact on my growth as a conservative.
Happy Birthday, Rush Limbaugh! Thank you for all that you do, and for all that you will do for this country, conservatism, and Americans. |
