Things Would Be Different if Rush were Still Here
His sober, calming message is desperately needed
I miss Rush so much. There are a few people in my life who constantly look to me to inspire them, tell them there is hope, encourage them. But the person who did that for me was Rush Limbaugh.
“I’ll tell you when it’s time to panic,” he used to say. Except you know what? Deep down, Rush was never going to come to that point where it was time to panic. He had a deep-seated, abiding faith in America and her institutions; of her founding by God; of her (still) unique place in all the world. For those reasons, he always maintained a faith that America’s best days were still ahead.
And given how horrible some of the stuff we deal with on a daily basis from the Rutabaga and his corrupt, illicit, suicidal administration hand us, it’s actually hard to see how things can get worse.
Rush would remind us that sooner or later, they all reach the end of their rope; that at some point a just God always delivers justice. And in telling us that, he would entertain us by ridiculing these chalksmokers, while at the same time logically exposing the fallacy of their utterly demonic ideologies.
I can’t help but think if Rush were here we’d all feel just a little bit better, just a little more certain that whatever is happening, America will pull through.
And never were some of his “Undeniable Truths of Life” more relevant than today:
*The world is governed by the aggressive use of force.
*The aggressor sets the rules
*Feminism was invented to give unattractive women access to the mainstream of society.
To those he had a few other obvious maxims, such as the environmental movement is a facade for anti-capitalism and Marxism. Or, there is a country class and a governing class, and the latter does not care about the former.
Though not a Trumper when Donald Trump came down the escalator, within a year Rush was fully on board the Trump Train. By then, I think, he had come to see the Republican Party for what it is: a corporatist protection racket that got elected occasionally by throwing a sop of tax cuts to the base. But after they rolled over for Zero and did nothing to seal the border, Rush gradually edged away.
I am especially grateful to President Trump for rightly honoring Rush with the Medal of Freedom before it was too late.
We miss Rush more than he could ever imagine.
Thank you Rush. Here is his last Christmas farewell to us all.

Nobody is hanging onto anything. We are rightly remembering the greatness of a hero.
So beat it.
True ultimately, but all movements, as even Lenin noted when he refuted Communism without knowing it, said that all movements are led by (individual) men.
Look, for example, at the "Yellow Vest" movement in France. Leaderless, it has been going on for a year and done nothing.
