My review of Zev Chafets book Rush Limbaugh an Army of One is available at Amazon.com here.

In my opinion it is the most balanced portrayal of this important historical figure that you will read.

    Important historical figure? seriously?
    Like all other radio/tv pundits he shoots his mouth off, speaks nonsense, and gets paid (extremely well) for doing so.

    Celebrity. Yes. Voice for conservatives. Yes. Radio Talk Show host. Yes.

    Historical figure…um no.

    To pretend that Mr. Limbaugh’s influence on American politics is insignificant or unimportant is a denial of reality. Granted you are a bit younger than me so you may not see it as much but believe me it is true.

    Influence on American politics. What legislation has he introduced in any level of government. Was he ever president and signed such legislation into law? Which war did he fight in? What medal did he win?

    What major historical event was he a part of that caused him to become such a historical gentleman?

    I’m just saying ‘historical’ is probably not the proper word that should used to describe him in said context.

    He was single handedly created AM talk radio as a successful enterprise resulting in the employment of thousands and making the conservative message a credible one. You do not remember when conservatism was considered marginal at best so you don’t appreciate what has actually been done.
