    In these excerpts from one of his early interviews, Rush reveals how the talk radio sausage is made. Like any form of entertainment, the primary goal is to capture the attention of the audience and compel them to keep listening. Rush is remarkably candid in describing his attitude toward his performance and the importance of caller screening.

    So he's basically admitting that his whole show is just an act. He even implies towards the end that he doesn't believe in what he says. I don't really have that big of a problem with an entertainer misleading the populace. The problem is that the shit he spews incites hatred and has actual political influence.

    Remember, half the population have an IQ below 100, but everybody feels their above average. And Rush is making millions off of these two points.

    @ColdDadaNothing I love how doing something for a profit is considered to be a bad thing. The reason why his show is successful is because of a lot of what he is saying... And, anyone out there who has their head on straight knows that the majority of people out there are fools. Plain, and simple.. I have no problem with hearing Rush express that fact, and the fact that if you let the fools run the show... then the show will only appeal to fools..

    Rush is a gay man, an ugly American, a total asshole. He always has to pay for sex. He goes on "boys only" cmamping trips with Viagra in his fanny-pack. He's as slimy and disgusting as they come. Anyone supporting this evil lard ass has given up all credibility. After kissing Limbaugh's fat ass, you're unfit to ever join any logical discussion group again!

    Funny, if you listen to him speak here, he actually comes across as an intelligent person. Ironically, his program is a sharp criticism of his own audience: they'll idolize anyone willing to endorse the shit they believe, even if he's clearly only doing it for profit. More than one Rush fan I know would be crushed if they saw this. Or not; they'd most likely rationalize the fact that Rush is basically admitting he's a shameless attention whore... convince themselves Rush still cares about them.

    @jigen08 Ah, it is wise for one to rely on "google" as one's sole source of research.

    Anyone who calls into a talk radio is a loser from step one.

    @jigen08 The Founding Fathers were liberal in the classic sense of the word, which is essentially modern day libertarianism which is on the rise.

    @jigen08 speaking of embarassing oneself, I think you meant "His audience isn't intelligent people..."
