Do you listen to Rush Limbaugh?

I listen to parts of it almost everyday. Doesn't mean I take him or any of the AM radio talking heads seriously but I do listen. If you try really really hard you can occasionally find a fact not so entirely skewed so as to make it worth absorbing.

He is fun to listen too though. It's hilarious to listen to guys try and imitate him (poorly) like Hannity and Church.

To me it's not about any "facts" so much as the "tone". I like to hear what that segement of the electorate is saying, what they're feeling (because we know large parts of them get their marching orders from him), what the "issues" are for them.

It's just a way to stay informed. Not about the issues themselves. I can find much more reliable and complete information elsewhere, but about certain groups responses to those issues.

It's also amusing to come back to the EE and see exact phrases or talking points being parrotted as original opinion by certain people, but that's pretty much just "bonus" :hihi:
