Yeah, he’s doing the same thing on all his website photos, and in the dozens of other such photos.

I can’t see Pinch being too happy about this.

Which is a good thing BTW. :)

Rush, as I see it, is sticking his cigar in the face of the Nanny State and THAT, my friends, is cool.

Then leave it at that.

Like someone just said above...sometimes a Cigar really IS just a smoke.

Go call Cigar Dave and complain to him.

Otheriwise it looks to folks like you just came here to bash Rush.

Look...either find something constructive to say about the article or leave.

I’m tired of you trashing up my OP with your insepid raving about Rush Smoking Cigars.

Go read the damn article and THEN get back to us.

Ok?

I nominate this for the dumbest, most meaningless statement to be made on FR in quite a while.

I second the motion. What a maroon!

Don’t like phony cigar smokers like Bill Clinton and Rush ...who started publicly puffing away the minute Cigar Afficionado hit the stands.

Rush was a cigar smoker long before he was featured on their cover in the spring of 94. In fact, one could argue that his on air discussion of that issue probably gave more free advertisement and subsequent subscriber enrollment than at any other time in the history of that publication......

“Yeah, you post something and I have to respond to it in a way that you approve.”

I posted a link to a 9 page article on Rush that will appear in the Sunday NY Times magazine.

And instead of having anything useful or constructive to say about the article itself...YOU have to go off on some hairbrained tangent about the pictures take of him SMOKING A DAMN CIGAR!

You didn’t post “something”...you posted (censored)

He started smoking AFTER CA hit the stands, just like the zillions of others.

As a football fan who follows the Philadelphia Eagles a bit, I was disappointed that the Times ignored Rush’s short stint on ESPN when he spoke the unspeakable: “(Philadelphia quarterback McNabb is) “overrated ... what we have here is a little social concern in the NFL. The media has been very desirous that a black quarterback can do well—black coaches and black quarterbacks doing well.”

All three points true, but none of them what ESPN wants us to hear on their shows. Rush resigned from ESPN shortly thereafter.

At least you admitted in post 25 that you are a Rush hater. That’s all I need to know.
