The GOP has been morally bankrupt for years, and is now a cult. Hail to He-Who-Can't-Be-Criticized.

2. Rush is considerably more dangerous than the others.
His reach is significantly greater, and his followers are arguably even more brainwashed than many cultists.

And this is how Rush should be presented. The pressure needs to be cranked up, if he wants to be the Repug defacto leader - well lets make sure it happens. Bwa...ha...haw....haw.....

7. I don't know about the GOP, but conservatism is dead.
For at least a generation.

8. I don't think of Rush as a "conservative." He's a radical hater with a cult following.
Not in the Burke sense of the word. Rush is an uneducated misanthrope - a cheap bully who resents that other kids (Bill Clinton, Obama) are popular. He seethes with rage and self-loathing. He's hardly the first of his type.

13. I know exactly who and what Rush Limbaugh is.
I also know what he is percieved to be. It is that perception which he feeds off of. America will give Obama's policies roughly a generation to work. If they don't, then conservatism will rise again.

11. That's what they said after Goldwater was trounced in '64
Then Nixon came back with a vengeance in '68. And even though Nixon was forced to resign in disgrace in '74, six years later we get stuck with Reagan/bu$h for 12 years.

9. Good call. It is a cult if they are all following Rush.
