Ding dong Rush is dead!
Flush that turd down the head!
At least Death is apolitical and it couldn’t have happened to a bigger asshole. To those who say you shouldn’t speak ill of the dead, go screw yourself! He was a horrible, unrepentant piece of crap who spewed poisonous lies on the public airwaves or what other civilized places call…propaganda. He owes the majority of his career to St. Reagan neutering the Fairness Doctrine which was a mostly good policy because AM and FM radio frequencies belong the American people, not Clear Channel and his dickhole enablers. Without St. Reagan and his thugs putting their thumb on the scales, this fat, living turd would be just another local nut job or what he originally was, a forgettable baseball announcer in the sticks getting by due to his alimony payments.
His legacy will carry on for years as he fooled millions of aging Boomers and some Gen Xers into believing impossible things and making their hidden racism acceptable again. He spawned dozens of imitators too, making his bullshit a game of whack-a-mole to fight. Don’t think for a minute I don’t know what I’m talking about neither. After I graduated from Marquette, I killed some time working for free at my old Milwaukee comic book store, the Turning Page, helping out the owner who listened that filth for hours. The owner was a generally nice guy but my stomach often turned whenever he agreed with Rush. Even if I were a Republican (a million to one thing), I would be puzzled by how fact-impaired the show was which is the current litmus test to being a Republican anyway.
I suppose his heir apparent is Alex Jones. They’re both fat, lying shitbags who shill products and love drugs.
If there’s truly a divine power in the universe, then Hell should exist and Rush would have a cell next to Antonin Scalia; David Koch; Roy Cohn; Hitler; Pinochet; Pol Pot; Joe Kennedy; Stalin; St. Reagan; Prescott, George & Barbara Bush; and a vacancy prepped for the entire Cheney family.
The biggest disappointment in this? The Onion has posted squat when they had a year to prepare.
