It is my personal view that Rush uses FreeRepublic regularly for his show prep, then he ironically calls his show the show prep for the media. Of course, without attribution or dismissive attribution. So, Freepers, take a bow. Rush talks and makes bug money, but he never led a protest or showed at one, during the whole eight years of Obama’s damaging Presidency.

I’m not sure I have a problem with any of what you view as being objectionable… If Rush uses FR for research and gets some of his best ideas from here, yes indeed JimRob and all of us should be proud of our role, take a bow and be very thankful for the opportunity to provide a contribution to changing the mindset of the country. I’m just glad there is somebody who has the platform large enough to make the points he does to the public at large… and Rush to a large extent created that platform long before he, you or I ever heard of FR. As for him not leading a protest, we all do what we can and in his case, that probably would be counterproductive.

Trump fought back hard, taking on the Democrats, the Republicans and the entire media, all while Rush stayed on the sidelines and would not even support him until he had to to keep hiss creds with his audience.

To say "Rush stayed on the sidelines" is a ridiculous way over-reach but sure…. it took some time for him to get it. As the old saying goes, “A wise man changes his mind….a fool never does.”

For a man so smart, he should have “got it” way sooner than he did.

To him, it is all about the show and its viability and not the nation. The sidelines were quite comfortable.

That become evident throughout all of 2015 and 2016.

Obama was too big a threat to America to deal with him with kid gloves.

I know that mine is a minority opinion, but I listened to Rush from 1988 to 2014 almost everyday.

It took a lot for me to get where I am today concerning him.
