[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 479698, member: 2189"] D, Yesterday going to work, I wasn't into music and the sports talk on ESPN radio was dull so I flipped the dial just to see what Rush was talking about at the time and boy was I in for a shock. I mean this rant was nothing like I'd ever heard Rush before and it was sad at the same time. Sure, I know Rush is bombastic entertainment but mixed in are some factoids about gov't worth exposing. I mean Rush can't be all bad if he's willing to quote and expound for his audience of the works of Robert Higgs and the folks at the Independent Institute. There was a time Rush really called for smaller gov't in and with a serious voice while still exaggerating himself in a humorous way. But yesterday dawned the real Rush Limbaugh. From the Lew Rockwell blogs, it's a rehash quote of what he said with some comment.
