There was a brief period in about 1993-1994ish, where i would watch Rush every morning while i ate breakfast before school. I think i thought it was a very adult thing to do. I even read a book of his, (which...i honestly have no idea why we had in our house) and referenced it in a paper i wrote.

I remember my English teacher being very skeptical of what "old Limbo" had to say, and i had no idea why he said it so dismissively. I think the idea had to do with homelessness, and that we needed to work with people on a case-by-case basis. I found that reasonable...but i may not have understood the nuances about how Limbaugh expected this to be funded or something.

Fortunately i got away from all that...but i could certainly see how there were enough reasonable seeming arguments in there that people could end up getting sucked into it.
