I tried calling into tell Rush many times but never got through. He's an incredibly saught after man.

I know the feeling.

The closest I ever got was the call screener, and that was but one time.

Rush Limbaugh is one of the greatest Americans in history.

Words can not describe his positive impact on this nation and the world.

That doesn't mean the world would be a better place if the Soviet Union had survived.

You don't live a life worth living without making enemies along the way.

Can't make another one, they broke the mold after making the first.

Was the soviet union collapse a good thing though?

Yes.

You can argue about how the followup was handled, but the world is a better place for having lost the Soviet Union.

He never told people what to think, he merely spoke on behalf of millions who shared his views but didn't have the proper means to express them.

Even when you know it's coming eventually, you still hope it comes later rather than sooner, and nothing really prepares you for when it actually happens.

I'm usually 'oh, well that's sad' when big names I actually care about die, but I can't say I really feel all that much.

This, however...I'm feeling it. It really is like losing a loved one, even without having ever met the man.

Man was so much more than merely a radio host. He was one of the greatest Americans of our time, one of the brightest minds of our time.

Dare I say it, I think he was the greatest philosopher of our age. He just happened to have a radio to help him get his philosophic wisdom to the masses.

Maybe it's the emotions getting to me, but I think there's a case to be made that Rush is to 20th and 21st Century America what the likes of Aristotle, Plato, and Socrates were to ancient Greece.

Trump needs better advisors.

Like the kind that spend less time convincing him to take out such lines and more time helping him more efficiently squeeze in more insults.

Should have gone for the worse version.
