Note - Edited to refer you to this thread - until this can be verified, it's not good fodder for discussion, here, where we try to stick to verifiable events. This might answer your questions:

Rush's "ego trip" is so exaggerated that it actually goes into self-deprecation, in my opinion. It's a parody - "defeating the left with one half of my brain tied behind my back."
I bought the 24/7 membership and it's worth it just for the parody commercials that you don't get to hear when you listen to him on the radio. "The Tom Daschle show," for instance. Rush and staff are truly brilliant and real thinkers. Rush didn't get where he is by being wrong.
And this is why "Err Amerika" failed - they were not only not funny, they were not RIGHT. (In any sense of the word.  ) |
I love Rush! His humor drives the libs nuts. No matter what you say about the media, we have to remember that it was Rush Limbaugh who gave us our voice. He is the one who broke open the airwaves so we could be heard. Hannity has a different approach and he doesn't use sarcasm in the way that Rush does. They have two completely different styles. I like both, the next guy might only like one of them.

Sean did a masterful job. He not only had previous clips of Kerry (to refute him), but added lots of enlightening commentary. I like the job Sean does, but I'm usually yelling at him because he misses so many obvious Dem/Kerry mistakes/distortions/lies etc. Today, he was damn near perfect.

They tried to make Al Frankin the Rush of the left. LOL . He got less listeners then the test of emergency broadcast system gets. |
That's hilarious and true...  I understand that Franken signed for $15 Million but they ran out of money after 4 months (sometime in the summer) and now he's working for charity...bwaaaaahahaha...can that network Err America survive for long with that going on...the funny thing about famous rich libs is that no matter how much they rail on "the rich" they never really want to give up being rich themselves...I give Franken another 6 months before his grand experiment fizzles out... |

The middle or swing don't pay attention to Rush, but I have found people willing to listen to Hannity. Those same people start listening to Rush after a while though. The main issue I hear about Rush is his arrogance. I've always thought he was being sarcastic, but then again I'm sarcastic and many people throughout my life have thought I was being deadly serious until I tell them different.
Maybe people with no sense of humor are the ones that cannot listen to Rush?
My point is Hannity appeals to more people than Rush. |
yeah, I'm the same way... and lots of people just don't know how to take me.... I usually have to give a little smirk or roll my eyes before they get that i'm just being sarcastic. some people are soooo slow.... (but then again, I'm really slow on other things!)

Rush and Sean have been a very effective counter balance to the Liberal Main Stream Media |
Excellent points and lets not forget that last point when people groan about the "right wing" new media - it is exactly right leaning because the MSM is so left leaning..and most of America is center, center right and right...so.....there is a huge audience who was not being represented by the leftist media organs (as I like to call them when I'm debating about whether there's a MSM bias.) |

Rush is the Dean of the conservative movement. He is talent on loan from God as he put it.
Sean Hennity is Rush's 2nd in command.
I am the grandfather of the vast rightwing conspiracy. Ha, Ha, Ha.
God bless Rush and Sean.
