Rush Limbaugh

I used to listen to Rush Limbaugh when Bill Clinton was the president and he actually made some sense back then, well before his admitted drug addiction and hearing loss which was caused by said drug addiction.

Lately though, he has become quite shrill and even desperate as he sees the Republican dream of Ronald Reagan and Newt Gingrich falling deeper into the congressional pit of ill repute and bloated government.

Ronald Reagan was a hero to me and someone not afraid to veto a spending bill or admit a mistake. George Herbert Walker Bush was my Commander in Chief while I proudly served in the first Gulf War. These were the men that put conservatism on the map, who won the cold war and who refused to be pushed to the center. Rush Limbaugh rarely mentions their names now and can only be the mouthpiece for a disgraced Tom Delay, Denny Hastert and the shadow president, Dick Cheney.

Just as President George Bush has placed our nation in a war of attrition with our young men and women being used as cannon fodder for insurgents, Rush Limbaugh follows the president's lead right into the pit. He allows Rumsfeld to spew his pure fiction out to the unsuspecting and mindless dittoheads that Rush has brainwashed.

Even yesterday Rush was ridiculing a man with a debilitating disease and then backing away from his position. When Rush first found out he was going deaf, we all prayed for his recovery and no one ridiculed him. Even when it was made known that Oxycontin was the culprit, we still wished him a speedy recovery, but he has gone too far and only a Republican miracle or October surprise will keep him afloat.

Rush has been on too long and needs to spend his last days with Tom Delay in either hiding or on some far away island. He is not a conservative, but is simply a Republican apologist. His only skill is to shout down dissenters and to ridicule all but his loyal followers.

Goodbye Rush
