IMO....this is exactly how and why people like AAA and hapa think the way they do.
Consumers of Rush and the rest of the right-wing whack job media eventually begin to believe that this stuff is rational thought. Yet I could say the same for the left-wing kooks too.
People like Rush have over the years convinced their sycophants that the other side is not just wrong...but they are evil. It's not that the opposition's ideas can be debated and discussed...it's that the opposition wants nothing short of "Death to America," and that in fact they hate America and all it stands for.
People Rush while making 20 million per year are in the process of irreparably balkanizing this country for the sake of ratings....for the sake of money.
It's a sad state of affaires indeed.
Vote Libertarian.
