I think you have gone way overboard. I listen to about 20 minutes of Rush most days and it is a rare moment when I disagree with him. The reason he is polarizing is because he was the first conservative in media with a massive audience that challenged the left and the left-stream media bias and news filtering, and THEY HATE HIM FOR IT, especially because he has over 20 million daily listeners. The left cannot stand the fact that they are being called out every day in public for their bullshit leftist policy agenda and hypocrisy --- it drives them nuts. No wonder they would rather demonize him than debate the real issues of the day, because they lose on the issues as they are on the wrong side of them. Before Rush, they got away with their slant and with a media that carried their water unchecked; luckily for the sake of the country, those days are long over. Most non-haters agree with what he says, and more would if they gave him a chance to overcome their predisposition which has been ingrained by the left-stream media.
