Hush Mr. Rush

Rush Limbaugh is drawing the ire of both sides of the aisle as Congress follows Obama's lead down the primrose path to socialism. A Republican Congressman Gingrey, I believe, largely unknown outside his district, is trying to tamp down not only Rush's volume but obviously stifle the amount of criticism his constituents, who agree with the truth Rush is broadcasting, are sending him. Rush is only one voice, but it happens to be the voice of the people. Members of Congress like Gingrey won't squawk much when local content requirements or the imposition of a new Fairness Doctrine are put in place to deny the Right the forum that Rush created and the venues that took conservative thought from relative obscurity in The National Review to the groundswell of Reaganism and the tidal wave of Limbaugh.
