Not only is he brainwashed, but he's brainwashing everyone who listens to him. My husband is a hard core republican has been listening to Rush and other "right wing extremist" talk show personalities for years. I am a republican too, but I can't stand listening to these shows. It drives me crazy how these guys belittle anyone who calls and disagrees with what they say. This is America and everyone is entitled to their opinion and for these guys to call someone "stupid" or "ignorant" just because they have a different opinion is completely rediculous. My husband believes every word that Limbaugh says and when I disagree with something he says, I get the same "you are wrong and I am right" treatment just like Limbaugh gives his callers who disagree. This attitude even starts aruguments at times. I realy believe he is branwashed from listening to this crap so long.
