CONSERVATIVE VOICE OF FREEDOM RUSH LIMBAUGH DEAD OF CANCER AT AGE 70

Rush Limbaugh, the conservative radio host who founded talk radio out of the ruins of the "Fairness Doctrine" and taught two generations of up and coming conservatives about our values and the tactics of the Left (anong many other things) passed away esrly this morning.

His death was announced by his widow at the opening of his show. It came as a shock to all concerned.  We all knew Rush had cancer and we all knew it was terminal, but we all hoped for just one more day, one more week, one more month.  Sadly there are no more. 

We first heard of Rush Limbaugh courtesy of a leftist alternate newspaper which called his show "Right wing brain vomit".   The next day we were scanning through the AM radio channels and came upon a satirical presentation asking why it was needful to teach kiddies about condoms by teaching them using one and a banana as a prop.   

Naturally he was called among other things the Left's favorite epithet "racist"; but after one listen to his show it was evident to any but the blindest that he was anything but.  

It is incumbent on we who live on to put his precepts into practice; to spread the philosophy and reasoning of conservatism and to defend the Constitution from the pack who are no doubt even now salivating as they think their old enemy is dead.  He is not.  He lives on having taught 30 years worth of listeners how to deal with the threats to freedom we face today.  The time for weeping is over.  It's time to get busy.
