re: #232 Gus

Don’t know where this is going. Clear Channel should have suspended him at the very least until things cooled down. It would have been better for all of us short of firing him. Bottom line IMO would be for Rush to do the right thing and knock it off but he won’t. Basically he was in a hole and kept digging.

If he were to quiet down his listeners would go elsewhere for their rage-fix. So he’ll keep on DERPing and hope the storm blows over. He’s painted himself into such a corner that he has few other options.

His best option, though, is one he will not take, for it would involve humility and humiliation. He could invite a more religious guest on and before the guest came on offer a sincere-seeming apology. Then have the guest come on and clearly state why Rush was wrong within the Christian tradition. After that the guest would suggest some acts of contrition for Rush to perform, and Rush would need to perform them. This would likely involve at least a personal, written apology to Sandra Fluke.
