I don't always agree with him, but many times I do.
Well, that puts you above about 80% of is audience, man. Whenever I have a discussion with Rush listeners and suggest that the guy was wrong about something/anything, it's like I jumped into a pit of angry, spitting cats.

I mean, kudos for having the nads to think for yourself. I know it's the same with some people, that agreeing with Rush is like jumping into that same pit. I agree with him about 40% of the time but the shrillness of the 60% is so deafening that I can't stand to listen to the show.

As far as Rush being better-informed, that may be the case, but when I listen I hear someone better-informed who only reads half of every source. Better-informed, who only pays attention to the stats that agree with him. Better-informed who only says "I told you so" to the half he was right about, ignoring the half he was dead wrong about.
