re: #647 Charles

And it pure unadulterated facetiousness. If nothing else he wouldn’t be this stupid. He’s not a Michael Savage etc. It’s easy to lump ‘em all into a single pot - I’ve listened to them all. Rush is a cut or two above the others. I wouldn’t bother to defend him if I had any doubt about it.
Ya have to listen to the show for awhile to know where he’s coming from - he can be as deadpan and poker faced as the best of ‘em when he wants and I can completely understand how someone listening to this clip would think otherwise if they haven’t listened on a regular basis. He once began the show by declaring he had just registered ‘Democrat’ - so convincingly that listeners were going bonkers.He did it to make a point, that’s all. Many callers were talking about throwing in the towel, the Reps. had no chance to win the election etc., (can’t remember now which election) and he feigned the same ‘giving up’ attitude announcing he had ‘seen the light’ and ‘if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em’ etc. He waited until the next day to explain himself. Hey, he’s an ‘entertainer’. It was good entertainment for a dull commute.
