Like him or not, he’s the best at what he does. His guest hosts are not in the same league. I’ve noticed that for years.
None of the others have the Left nailed spot on as he does. None of the others “get” the media and Washington as he does. None of the others have his flair for entertainment. Rush can do it and keep it fresh. Others drone on and on.
I hope he can beat his condition, but those are long odds. He’s been a gift to conservative. He preserved A.M. radio. He redefined Talk Radio. We’ve been fortunate to enjoy 30 years of it.

YES Hatari, Rush is a national treasure and one of a kind. I stared listening in the late 1980's and he taught me I wasn't crazy and he taught me how to connect the dots. I now can spot liberals with x ray vision.

I never listen if Rush is not on personally. I fear the end of "the golden EIB microphone" is near.

He sure is an amazing individual. Overcoming a handicap ( deafness) and still succeeding.
3 hours a day for over 30 years speaking extemporaneously. Amazing talent. Very generous human being too giving tens of millions to vet charities.

Tucker Carlson could take that role. Not saying they are the same. Not at all. But Tucker is gaining attention and influence.
Rush can’t be there forever. No one can. I think Rush wants to keep going, but Stage 4 lung cancer is a tough nut to crack.
I have listened to him for 30 years.

I've listened since he came on in Idaho and wish him the best.

The amazing thing about Rush is he pioneered this venue and his show is still as relevant today as ever, despite the huge increase in competition

Been listening to him since he came on WGST AM in Atlanta, I forget the year. I hope he makes it, he's got a tough nut to crack.

I have been listening to him since 1989 I believe. Hope he is able carry on for as long as possible. His guest host Mark Steyn in pretty darn good too.
Always remember that you are unique, just like everyone else.

I started listening in late 1988, soon after he was nationally syndicated. I was a Navy flight instructor at Whiting Field in the Florida panhandle. His name was brought up in the ready room, and he was being called "that crazy guy on the radio." We tuned in on a local AM radio station that we could pick up on our NDB. I could switch him on in my headphones, and the student next to me couldn't hear. Been listening daily, ever since. All my children have been listening to him for years, and are very well grounded politically. He has done a great service to our country by educating the masses, and warning of the national mental disorder which is the Democrat Party.

Rush IS talk radio. Everyone else is an imitation.
We have a local guy in Nashville who I’d say is the second best. Phil Valentine is his name.

I was an IP at NAS Meridian and I started listening at a about the same time and for a similar reason. One of the guys in the Ready Room mentioned to me that I ought to listen to Rush. I was skeptical at first but once I started listening to him I realized that there were lots of other folks that thought a lot like I did.

........................Agreed......As far as Rush's guest hosts are concerned, there maybe one or two others who really nail the hell out of the left.......Otherwise imo, there is only one other who REALLY nails the left and does an outstanding job doing so. And that is Mark Levin. When Mark Levin gets done blasting the left on any subject, NO demCRAP leftist could come back with an adequate rebuttal.
