You? A liberal/independant? Naaaaah! Give me one example of you being independent. (I just joking in case you can't read though my joking.)

Actually I'm a independent conservative so I must be just the opposite of you. Except that I used to listen to Rush just to see how many of his points I could disagree with. I found in the past that what Rush spouted was just a far from the truth as many in the staunchly mainstream media (read liberal). And as someone who dealt with the "media" on a daily basis from 1975 until 1993, trust me when I say the media lost most of its objectivity somewhere along the way. A lot of local reporters earned the promotions by reporting either their opinion of the facts or the opinions that they believed the bosses wanted to hear.

Most people also don't connect with the fact that Rush is NOT a part of the news media. He is a talk show host. He's an entertainer. He is not bound by anything to say anything but what he wants to say.

And that includes what he says about cigars. Take his comments as what they truly are - a paid commercial endorsement.
