>>Oh, you think that, like Rush Limbaugh, Perry never voted for Reagan? <<

Your assertion is more than a little disingenuous.

Rush Limbaugh didn’t vote for Reagan because he didn’t register to vote until the age of 35.Rush was a conservative WAY before then.

He did NOT vote for Jimmy Carter.

He did NOT vote for Walter Mondale.

If you were trying to draw a similarity between Rush Limbaugh and Rick Perry in this way, you failed. ;-)

To: Do Not Make Fun Of His Ears

Um, actually, I probably succeeded beyond your wishes. If Perry was a convinced Democrat and voted his convictions, I’d have more respect for him at the time (though NOT for his convictions) than for Rush. At least he would have done something about what he believed, beyond talking.

I agree with most of what Rush says. But he’s mostly a talker. There is no defense for him not getting his lazy butt to register to vote, while his big mouth was talking conservatism and Reagan. It’s a shame on him.

To respect the man’s ideas, there’s no need to respect every last action (or inaction) taken (or not taken) by the man.
