Good man.  R.I.P.  A giant in radio.  

A giant fountain of hot air, hate and misinformation.

It's amazing how many people sh!t on a still warm corpse.

Couldn’t even wait a day, hell an hour. 
 

Same people that champion criminals.

As if the others here would’ve done any different if it was some liberal hack they didn’t like who passed away.

I have little doubt that they would.

Honestly, I enjoyed listening to him. I didn't always agree with him, but he was certainly entertaining. Listening to him on one of his rants was interesting...I never understood how someone could be so outright ANGRY. 

Anyways, RIP, Rush.

Same here.  I grew up listening to Rush, read his books, he taught me a lot about politics.  As I got older I lost interest and increasingly disagreed with him.  Haven't listened to him in over 20 years.

I don't see where all the hate and vitriol is despite not agreeing with his politics.

Exactly.

As much as I despise 🤡🦖, I never wished any harm upon him, particularly when he was hospitalized with the COVID. 

Limbaugh was the source of a lot of divisive coming out of the alt-right to this day, with talks of civil war and demonizing everything on the left. 

He gave birth to infotainment and fostered polarization in this country. He, FOX and Newt Gingrich helped create the angry alt-right, with the reaction being CNN and MSNBC pandering to the left.

I haven't listened to Limbaugh since the rise of the Alt-right, so I don't know what he contributed to it, but I can tell you that CNN pandered to the left back in the 80s/90s, and Limbaugh was the counteraction to that.

RIP.  I can hardly remember a time when he wasn't on the radio.  I used to work in a warehouse with a guy who walked around with a little pocket radio playing his show.  Every.Single.Day.

I listened to him quite a bit leading up to the November election. I didn't realize until then that the angry alt-right was parroting his vitriol, which I'd been seeing all over Facebook and then in this forearm.

I never listened much as his show was on when I was working.  I do respect that he never waited for others to give him....his opinion like so many people do now. He said what was on his mind.

There is a lot of anger all around, Rusty.  You can't blame one person or one side.

Doesn’t surprise me. Lots of stupid people in the world. Lots of hate.

First guy to rush to reply in this thread. You described it well. "Vile".

Who did he hate?

I might be mistaken, but I got the impression that Rush wasn't a huge Obama fan. JS.

Wait, I thought the left believed in never hating...  At least that is what those signs in people's yards said about "There is no hate here" and so on...

I guess they were lying?

There is this weird thing in America, has been going on since the 70s. The gubment ties you up and makes you listen to something you're not interested in. I really wish they would allow people to change the channel/station and listen to something else :(

He will not be missed by me. I have nothing positive to say other than he had enough sense to copy from Howard Stern.
