Rush Limbaugh, conservative talk radio pioneer, dead at 70. RIP Rush Limbaugh. He lived life to the fullest, he was a fighter, he was a king among men. Who will replace the king? Is he even replaceable? We think not.

He was a trailblazer. Although I didn't usually listen to him, the others that I do listen to were all inspired by him.
Yeah, I didn't get to listen to him much either. Seemed like I was always working. Which I'm sure is the case with millions of others. Makes you wonder how large his audience could have been if his primary target listeners weren't the kind of people who generally have jobs.
I listen to Andrew Wilkow on Sirius Patriot 125 from noon to 3. I have the app on my phone, and when I'm working with no tenants in the unit, I can have my Bluetooth speaker on, otherwise I use my wireless ear buds.
There are advantages to being an independent contractor, and the guy you work for is as conservative as you.
What a loss, the kind of man you cannot imagine being replaced.
I'm crushed. Radio won't be the same without him.
Rush took conservative radio and made it into a Mountain of resistance against the left and limps. He will be missed on the airwaves, there is no doubt about that. He has sat the standard by which all others will be measured. There is only one unique individuals that make their mark for others to follow. Edward R. Murrow, Paul Harvey and Rush Limbaugh.
Rush fought the good fight, stood up for what he believed in and had no problems with having arrows and stones thrown at him. His sense of humor was one that was cutting and made points that could not be disputed. Now as he rests from the fight, those left will pick up where he stopped and carry on. That is what fighters do.
We who are left to carry the fight have the best example there is for doing so. Rush Limbaugh.
RIP
I have struggled all morning with what to say. Thank you dt for saying it for me. RIP Mr. Limbaugh. Keep watch over us.
