The Maestro Speaks

Rush Hudson Limbaugh illuminated the Sunday morning wonk show universe by sharing his vision, wisdom, and insight and in so doing, doubtless boosted the ratings for Chris Wallace to new heights. Rush has earned his position as behemoth of the right, gaining audience, changing minds of those who are willing to listen and not invincibly ignorant, and igniting the scorn of the left as a lightning rod because the internationalist elites recognize that they can not counter Limbaugh's impeccable logic. Rush is the embodiment of Middle American common sense, wit, good humor, resilience in the face of adversity, and personal determination even in the face of character assassination and slander. Rush is the logical inheritor of Buckley, and carries on the legacy of Reagan more than anyone in the public eye. Limbaugh's brilliance is his ability to say what he believes and believe what he says. He is absolute down-home authentic in the way Will Rogers and Mark Twain were portrayed. Rush is innately intellectual, but unlike some who can not see past their own phalanx of advanced degrees and have to see nuance in all issues, managing to find gray areas where there are none, Rush presents the conservative view of the world in black and white, and the left can not manufacture a personality to eat away at Limbaugh's massive and growing audience.
