A Sad Note

The most successful radio personality ever, anywhere, Rush Limbaugh has announced he’s been diagnosed with advanced lung cancer. If you’re a praying person, he could use whatever help you can petition God to give him.

Like Donald Trump, Rush’s stylistic flourishes haven’t always been my cup of tea. But also like Donald Trump, I recognize in Rush a media master craftsman and an autodidact of great intellect and insight.

There’s a hole in the ground waiting for each person. Most of us will be missed, if we’re lucky, by a handful of friends and relatives. Rush, when he goes, will be missed by millions. With his golden microphone, he has been the godfather of modern conservatism in these United States. Our hope is he can dodge this lethal ‘bullet.’
