I have a confession to make.

I used to listen to Rush faithfully, especially in the 1990s, until the last year. I was a big fan of TV show in the ‘90s also.

Now, after Clinton won a second term in 1996, then we barely got Bush the Younger over the finish lines in 2000 and 2004, the GOP has caved to the Dems since 2007,Obama got elected in 2008, Obamacare passed in 2010,and then Obama got re-elected in 2012, I wonder if Rush has any ability to influence anything at all.

Even now, he comments and comments, but the situation is getting more dire by the day, and there is no leadership on our side, except for the occasional post by Sarah Palin, or speech by Ted Cruz, or Rand Paul.The 2014 mid-terms are the backstop to save America, and if we lose that, it’s all over but the shouting.

I wonder if we are all getting played.

I am tired of losing, of not being effectual, of watching my country go down the tubes.

I have to turn off even Fox now, because I don’t want to waste half my time listening to the other side in a so-called “fair and balanced” setting, because I am sick of the other side, quite frankly.

I just don’t see where Rush or Sean have any skin in the game, but are doing quite well financially stoking the flames on the right and for what? To support the GOP, which is Dem Lite at this point and afraid of their own shadow?

At his age and with his wealth, Rush should lead in some way other than bellowing into the microphone.

Maybe that’s unfair to Ruah, but twenty years of constant agitation over the antics of the Left and watching their progressing success has left me hollow.

I find like minds on FreeRepublic, that’s my only solace.

I call my Congresscritters and do what I can to educate my family and friends, and am probably slated for a boxcar in the future once the phony President consolidates all power.

But what can we do?

I am looking for someone to lead the way.

End of rant.

What you said! This is why I quit watching Hannity, among others, as I really don't give a s##t anymore what the leftists he has on have to say.

Like it or not, there is not much out there. Rush and the others are it.
