    Made it to 4:19 (from 4:00), when he condescendingly says people don't understand conservatism because of what they've been told.....

    A new record for me... 19 whole seconds... pats self on back...

    Not really. But it’s a good lesson on smoking and lung cancer. I hope the right still isn’t clinging to the idea there is no connection and no need for second hand smoking laws. Rush smoked cigarettes during the first half of his life and cigars the second.

    We on the Right must remember not to return the 'favor' of seething, vomit-strewn hatred to these radical Democrats when Biden keels over and croaks (probably in the next two years, max).

    They hated Rush Limbaugh's guts with a fervor that's difficult for rational people to imagine, but they should reflect on the fact that in all the time that he was 'on the air' there was no one (NO ONE) in the ranks of the hyperliberal, America-hating, Leftist media 'personalities' who could ever stand as Limbaugh's equal in either audience-share or in the affection of his fans.

    All these hyperliberal, Leftist media-stooges and other midget-nobody's have scurried around for years, like cockroaches in a darkened kitchen, far beneath the towering presence of a man with Rush's calibre of wit, perspicacity, accuracy, and intelligence.

    I will miss him in much the same way that I've missed William F. Buckley for many years, but now there's no one to take Rush's place, and we've got four, long, wretched years of "Obama 2.0" before us....

    1. I said nothing negative about Rush.
    2. Dutch is the one who said Rush was his best friend. I made no such claim.

    He caused great harm too your ideology.
    You have no clue what you are talking about. Show us some of those racist quotes. Like when he said white n words? Racial jungle?

    Joe Biden has a far worse racist past.

    Limbaugh was on the air for thousands of hours so please show all these racist comments. People have to make up racist comments like the libs who lied that he once said slavery was a good thing.

    Somehow, we've gone from Limbaugh to huge boobs in 9 pages...

    So we've basically ended up where we started....

    So then surely you agree that "The Sentinel" and his devoted followers are now as distasteful as Rush was many years ago? If not far more so.

    Well stated.

    I think we have some up and coming solid figures on the Right like: Ben Shapiro, Candace Owens, and Steve Crowder that all owe Rush a huge "thank you" for opening the door to views that rarely saw the light of day prior to Mr. Limbaugh.

    “I mean, let’s face it, we didn’t have slavery in this country for over 100 years because it was a bad thing. Quite the opposite: slavery built the South. I’m not saying we should bring it back; I’m just saying it had its merits. For one thing, the streets were safer after dark.”

    How exactly does and African colonial despot behave? Trying to degrade our President by attacking his African roots?

    The entire left wing in America is in a frenzy of hate today. It's almost as if they are joyously spewing their hate.

    ahhh I'll see Rush again.... I''ll miss him to then, As his widow said he was truly full of love.

    I'd watch the response of the Right when a liberal icon died... quite a contrast to the Left's response on this thread.
