He's the guy who said, "In Obama's America black kids beat up on white kids on school buses."
I listen to Rush often, heard this show, heard what he said and what other are reporting he said.
The two things are not equal.
But Rush is the perfect barometer to test if a person is willing to think for themselves or just listen to their political side tell them what to think.
I have listened to Rush for over 15 years, he speaks for 3 hours a day, almost every work day, (for a paltry $50,000 an hour)
Yet someone reports one sound bite taken out of context or meaning and try to pigeon hole Rush into some caricature that doesn't exist. You have to be crazy to believe that a person like that would have the largest audience in the history of radio for over a decade.
But if you are cool thinking that you 'know' Rush after listening to a few reports by people that don't like him...then I guess you aren't open to experiencing one of the best 3 hours in radio everyday.
I would think that as a person in the limelight of society, you should know better than most that just because there is a story or report about a person and what he supposedly said, it doesn't make it true. If I wanted to show someone just a few snippets of your blogs, I can make you look like anything I want, from racist to nazi to homophobe to Hellmuth lover.
