We will never see the likes of him again and we've lost a great defender and promoter of our freedoms and the American Way of Life... Absolutely!!!! I agree that Rush was a true gem. I wonder if those folks back in the early 1800s felt a great lose when men like Jefferson, Adams, Monroe, Washington and others died. They were the early defenders of freedom. Now we say goodbye to Rush. In the early days these men I mention used the pen to relay their thoughts to those that wanted to know. Rush used words through the radio. Rush was the first voice in.my life for Conservatism and Patriotism and for the Constitution and the Republic. He was the first voice supporting the freedom and good wishes to our age since our Forefathers. Rush loved what he did and said often how lucky he was to have a job that was not a job. He worked right up to the end because he loved this country so very much. I too crisscrossed this big beautiful country for work and pleasure and Rush went with me everywhere. I call him by his first name even though I never met or spoke with the man because I considered him a friend.
I used to think my code of ethics, political view and morals didn't jive with what was preached in the media and schools. It seemed like I was alone in my thinking. Then one day I came across Rush Limbaugh while driving somewhere out there.. He showed me that there are millions of liked minded people that grew up with the same values, work ethic and love of country. I listened to him at every chance. He gave me hope that this nation would survive if we kept the flame alive.
Rush was so perceptive. It seemed like he always had his finger on the nations pulse. He stood tall in the face of constant opposition and criticism. I greatly admired that steadfastness.
I have very few heroes. Rush is one of those few. D.J. Trump and Ronald Reagan are in that club too because they all obviously love/loved this country with all their being. The entered the fray not for personal wealth, but for the good of all of us.
I say rest in peace my friend Rush.
Makes me wish I had listened to him more. RIP Sir! Higgins, without him giving a voice and force for conservatives the Tea Parties would have never gotten a foothold and that lead to the conservative movement that led to people realizing the truth about our traitorous Govt and that movement became a spring board for Trump. God used Rush to lead America to Ttump.

Rush let the genie out of the bottle. He let us all become aware of the fact that we who hold dear the Constitution and Liberty are not oddballs with no peers. He brought unity that cannot be extinguished. That legacy will live on.
Don't be the darkness.
America will perish while those who should be standing guard are satisfying their lusts.

Memory Eternal. For a man who did more for freedom and liberty during some of America's darkest days than most.

Yup
Same here, we got his show here around the military base on a small AM, then an FM station.
I was about 20, 1991ish
I had my own little business working for several Realtors, I could ride around in my truck and listen to almost his whole show. 11-2
When Clinton got elected, the match was lit. The shows are just killer and hilarious too. He gave clinton hell. All that “yesterday...all my troubles with the gays”
“The queen berets”
All that waffle business.
Best years, I got his books and read them.
I didnt get to listen for a few years, local stations dropped him and the Nashville affiliate was sometimes washed out by some bleed over from a mama-jama station is neegersville Missouri or some crap.
I like the early Rush much more than in later years. Loved all the spoofs and songs. Bomb, bomb, bomb Iraq. And of course, Barack the Magic Negro Absolutely agree...wasn’t the same after he lost his hearing. I was on I-90 going through Billings the first time he played “Barack the Magic Negro”.
I retired from the Johns Manville asbestos pop tart factory in ‘59, and still never made the connection.—-Slumlord

Caught the show one day, Nixon called in.
Gave me a first chance to hear the man out on his own terms, allowed to be free to speak without media editing. Was a great show that day as always.

Laughing. Rush already called it and joked about it, speaking about liberal turds like you dancing on his grave.
