I forgot, it's not nice to say something at all critical about a dead guy. I guess I coulda said it yesterday?

Well, to be honest, after the crap I have seen printed in regards to his death by people who are professing to want "unity", it's kind of appalling to see their comments.
.
This person wasn't someone I always agreed with, but it was entertaining to listen sometimes. That was what most these people are, entertainers.
Their job is to incite a reaction.
I have been to funerals that I didn't even like the person, but respected what they did and was respectful to their family.
My integrity would be questioned, otherwise.
Would I say I liked him? Not particularly. Did I find his show entertaining?
Yes. Just as I listen to several radio talk shows and half those I don't agree with.
It is what it is.
In Fumo Pax Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.
Division is where the money is these days. Hannity, Limbaugh, Madow, Hayes, Carlson all make millions and they do it by demonizing ad hominem attacks. Those evil otherfuckers, they don't have a heart or they don't have a brain.... Substantive discussion of all points in a controversy is yawn-inducing to the average consumer.
If he'd have been on the CNN crew with Cuomo and Don Lemon, he wouldn't have been able to do anything wrong.
It matters which side of the fence you stand on, with the media.
For that matter, Hollyweird is pushing their political hatred more and more everyday.
If one side isn't spewing hatred, the other side is.
And god help anyone who tries and have a logical discussion about any of it, cause usually in a short time, you are a heathen, a racist or worse.
Logic has no place in discussions such as these.

I stumbled across Rush, twirling the AM dial, while traveling the wilds of Montana in the early 90's. He was like no one I had ever heard before on the radio. As he said many times, he was just articulating (and very well) what I, and most conservatives already thought and many of his bits and parodies especially in the early years were really funny. I learned a lot listening to him over the years and I believe he was a patriot. RIP Rush.

Meh, so what. He was a divider. I prefer uniters.
We’d all be united as long as we all agreed with liberals, right Frank?
No, Bryson, and I think you know me better than that. You know that I despise Donald trump, and I voted for him zero times. Still, I agree with many conservative principles.
As for rush, I remember shows he did in the 90s, talking about how certain people who contracted HIV deserved it, or how he used racist language as he talked about people from a third person perspective, etc. He was an outspoken opponent to gay marriage when it was still socially acceptable to be an opponent, pontificating how overturning DOMA would erode the fabric of American decenscies.
But for all of the things that I disagreed with him for, I despised him because he preyed on the emotions and fears of American conservatives to create a charged narrative that was the very start of the "win at all costs" doctrine. This eroded the classic American political compromise doctrine. It fueled the "contract with America," which aside from being an utter failure, began the pattern of politics where the main goal was to ensure that the opposition executive was a one-term president...in direct opposition to the tip o'neill model.
Sure, he was the quintessential conservative mouthpiece for a generation of republicans, but at what cost? Plenty, in my opinion.
Bottom line for me is that he was a demagogue and divisive. His death changes none of that. If you want to take my conservative card from me and kick me out of the club for that opinion, that's fine.

Frank, very well stated, though I disagree with much of it, it was a much better post than your first.
I took it as obvious sarcasm. But I assume if someone is far enough on the left side of the political divide, they would believe it as the truest truism they cling to most.

Yeah, I know, hence the winkie at the end of my post. It just struck me as funny because you could take it as truth from a left-leaning person; it could be read either way.

He was a much needed conservative voice to counter the left.
