Zev Chafets has performed a remarkable service to the general public. After reading this book, you come away with a clear understanding of how Rush the person relates to Rush the personality. Rush Limbaugh was the original "new media" pioneer, and is an inspiring American success story. He is the epitome of "speaking truth to power" in an age when the members of mainstream TV and newspaper media vote more than 80% in favor of one side of the political spectrum. He is also a champion of liberty for people of all persuasions, and an opponent of those who believe more government is the answer. He is a Thomas Paine for modern times.
