No reason whatsoever. I keep reminding all my right wing buddies that the guy is a hypocritical dope-head who is trying to duck prison for his illegal drug activies - though he clearly stated liberals who do what he does should go to jail.
So why are they even listening to the guy? He lost credibility - even for the conservatives - ages ago. If they even start off the conversation with,
"Hey did you hear what Rush said -?"
I always riposte with, "Rush? The drug addict? Yeah, what did the dope-head mumble now?"
It gets my point across.
