You personal hate for Rush interferes with the power of persuading people to listen to you.
Whats different about Sean Hannity or Al franken, Rush L. or Randi Rhodes? Not much, they all have air time, all of them donate money to their charities and or have charities, and all of them help out on a common ground for the people, but fight different battles. Different voices from different points of view. The topic was, about this message from Rush, fact or crap?
You may have said it unknowingly but you agree with Rush but would like to hear it from one of the Democrats. Rush or Randi Rhodes, I would agree with both of them, if giving more money to our troops is what they are backing.
Also, you can discredit any one person under a microscope, from Martin Luther King to John F Kennedy. We have all made mistakes, knowingly and purposely. Doesnt prohibit someone from greatness.
Rush, in this case hit it right on the head. This is definately fact.
