That said, he is a total hysterical mess who was sure Trump would never give up power, etc. and a bit of a cringey effeminate too. I give him about 4/10 respect because he is capable of resisting pretty strong groupthink.
Yup. I was just noting for how much blister he thinks he has, I was actually kind of surprised I hadn't seen any of his movies.

Now, back to Rush. Never really much of a fan but when I was working for minimum wage and tasty smoked seafood treats after I finally pulled my head out of catatonia from the split (divorce) with a gumption to get out of the tent, the rusty old codger I was working with used to have him playin' in the background just he had something to bust a wisecrack remark about how stupid he was while the day passed.

I remember one rant where rush was essentially saying that he didn't understand the concept of a "moderate", and then proceeded to rant for a half hour about how moderacy was just another way of saying "I stand for slowly losing" which now that I think back upon, was probably a pretty big impetus contributing towards the polarization of both camps. "Two camps".....
Jacob told us to camp in between em in Genesis 32:3

Said that's where God's camp is, so I'm gonna say our resident lefties have this one.
