"Rush is not the leader of the Republican party"

False. Rush has more power and influence than any other Republican. The ******* Speaker of the House asks for his approval on policy decisions for crissakes.
Influence and power are not the same thing.

Rush can lead a conversation and get people talking about something.

In terms of actual power he has none. He supports traditional Conservatrive issues. He doesnt invent anything.

He is the guy that stands up and makes us feel good about oursleves.
You need Rush to "feel good about yourself"?  That's pretty darn sad.

Before Rush the mainstream version of Conservatism was negative. Rush stood up and said that all the people who believe in less government, lower taxes and a general reduction in the scope of government are right!

Look at All in the family. The only conservative on the show was an ignorant racist. Any defense of Conservative values was made to look stupid.

Rush made Conservatism "cool"!

So you want to be Fonzie, then? And Reagan and Rush made "Liberal" a slur. But you can't really argue that conservatives favor smaller government, because the ones that have been elected President have grown it, raised taxes, and increased the debt. So really, they are only conservatives of convenience, not conscience. C'mon, Rush has been married four times, is that a "conservative" value and someone that truly believes in the sanctity of marriage?

What really ****** me off is the total liberal lean in all media circuits. They always make conservatives out to be the bad guys. The animosity between the parties is just astounding as well.

Reagan and Rush didnt make liberal a slur. The polices of liberals made them a slur.

Bussing, welfare, gun control, gay rights and tax and spend policies. Just a few of the beliefs that made the liberals change their names so no one would recognize them.

The idea to bus kids to racial integration is possibly the best example of a liberal policy.

This was created to fix an imagined problem, was highly promoted, any opposition to it was labeled as racist and ended up A Total Disaster!

Liberals dropped the name. They are Progressives now. If they lose another national election they will probably find a new name.

The right may get flack about thier beliefs but they stand up for them.

The left always wants to hide their views. Gay Marriage, Obama said he isnt for it, and then did everything in his power to promote it as secretly as possible.

Secretly? If so how the hell do you know? You are by no means very well informed.
