Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire It's really good to hear Rush on the radio...

...again.


This country is going to miss him when he's gone.

Yep. He sounded up beat as usual.

Yep...

Sounds great...

Yep. He had a good story to tell about this past Tuesday.

I’m gonna miss him for sure!

Sounded good today.

Wife is a Cancer Patient case manager at the Local Hospital's Cancer center.

She said Rush will be lucky to survive the year. She said he's been going thru treatment long before his Public Reveal. She could see it in his face.

Here I thought it was going to be about the Neil Peart/Rush tribute that SiriusXM has been playing the last few weeks...

I was 15 when I first listened to him. It was like being hit with a bolt of lightning. My eyes were opened. Thank you Rush.

Yep,big shoes to fill.

some them there colored folk don't think so...............

I hope he beats it.

He sounded much better today than I thought he would. I hope & pray his treatment goes well but he's got a terrible diagnosis to deal with.

I'd prefer to hear a good flush.

I had a vacay day today.

Caught parts of his show. Didn’t know it was his first since his anouncement.

Caught part of the Trump story. Telling of how last Tuesday went down.


Though some of calls in were as if he was already dead.....

It was indeed great to hear him this morning. I’ve been listening to him since the summer of ‘89. I listened to him more intently this morning, and will continue to for as long as he’s behind the golden mic.

He mentioned there’s a bunch of y’all that’s been with him for 31 years.


I was 11.


222Rem,

Was the Dems / Reps this far divided back then?

That's what we all should be praying. There's a lot of prayer power on here, if we just use it.

In my opinion yes, but the dems weren’t openly communist, and the GOP was more conservative too, as a whole. Everything has been shifting to the left on both sides of the isle.

The traditional media sources were still very biased, and ran unchecked. William F. Buckley was one of the lone conservative voices to counter the left. And honestly, as a teenager (my first vote went to George HW Bush), Mr. Buckley was a lot for me to absorb. Then Rush came onto the scene. He articulately explained the current political events, and brought both understanding and validation to the everyday conservatives who were working while tuning into his show. He truly pioneered talk radio, and I think his success is both due to his immense talent, knowledge, humor, and wisdom in understanding of the conservative “average American” who can still productively stay on task while listening to him for three hours. The show was more fun back then. Songs and parodies, and some legendary callers.

As far as the dem/rep split specifically, I think the change started with Clinton’s terms in office. His complete lack of moral character, and his VP inventing the internet (ha!) which ultimately expanded our information sharing, marked a turning of the tide for the traditionally semi-civil and stately behavior In politics. Bush Jr. did well at acting Presidential while being steamrolled by the left and the press, and never fighting back. Zero spent eight years setting new low standards. Trump (having grown up a doer rather than a politician), isn’t afraid to lock horns with the media and the left, and won’t let himself become a punching bag like Bush Jr. It’s not Presidential, but it’s effective, and is driving the left insane enough they’re no longer pretending a lack of bias or disguising their agendas.

Not my best explanation but what I could tap out on my phone.

Thanks for thst.

Yep, it was great to hear him on the airwaves again. He had a few coughs and sniffles but said it was a cold he just started coming down with and not diagnosis related.
