Hurricane Rush
If you’re like me (I know, you hope you’re NOT!), you’ve been diverted lately from the usual political comedies by the tragedies in Houston and now Florida which is in the crosshairs of Hurricane Irma. Irma? Who comes up with these names, some bored yahoo in the basement of the National Storm Appelation Department? And if you’re like me, you feel lucky to be torn away from the 24/7 drumbeat of Trump Tweets and maybe you even feel a little guilty considering the suffering of folks down there in the Bible Belt whose God has apparently forsaken them.
But now along comes that bombastic bomb thrower Rush Limbaugh to suggest the hurricanes are nothing more than liberal conspiracies to alarm the masses and thereby open the door for legislation on Global Warming, as big a hoax to the Rushter as the notion that Obama was born in the same country as him. Lies, all lies! A conspiracy of the left! An evil plot to destroy America! But he can stop them, maybe only he can stop them, by broadcasting the truth from his beacon of Brietbart babble.
Thank God for the Rushman! Faux hurricanes! Who’d have thought the Left could stoop so low. Bogeyman meteorology!! What’s next? Glaciers supposedly melting? Polar bear uprisings? Icebergs plowing into San Francisco? Is there nothing too low for these liberals to stoop to?
Apparently not, according to Herr Limbaugh. But … today he has decided to, well, let’s just say he’s decided to play it safe. He’s evacuating himself from the phoney baloney hurricane that’s nothing but liberal hot air. Not, I’m sure, to protect himself. No, the man is far too courageous for that. Truth, he would tell you himself, is all the defense he needs. The mouth is mightier than the sword. Or the whirlwind. Or whatever …. No, I’m sure he’s taking a small break from the routine of Savior, maybe indulging in a much needed vacation. Either way, I’m sure we could use a much needed vacation from Rush. And if that hurricane should actually make landfall with 150 mile sustained winds, don’t think it’s proof the libs were right. Probably brought on by the sudden vacuum of the Rushster gone silent.

As a small businessman, I’ve watched Rush Limbaugh’s approach to business with utter fascination over the years.
I remember when he made offensive comments on the air, repeatedly, not in the pursuit of free speech but just because he wanted to insult someone. His advertisers left. Then a little later he duplicated that error in judgement, hurled out a few more insults, again without freedom of speech involved in any shape or form. That time he lost most of the radio stations which broadcast his program.
Now he’s asking what remains of his loyal listeners, who have stuck with him through thick and fat, to ignore warnings from Fake Weather, and hunker down under a 12 foot storm surge. Except for him, he has a security issue that requires him to flee like a wide eyed screaming child pursed by his bigger, older, meaner cousin with a rope.
Its hard to tell what Rush’s end game is, but I’ll give him this, he’s been consistent. Even so, killing your customers might be a tad rash. But what do I know, I’m just a guy he’d probably call a delusional libtard who believes in satellites and weather forecasts.
Not to mention living, breathing customers who can mail checks next week.
This may explain why you and I are small biznessmen. Course, we haven’t attempted the Tried and True approach of treating our client/customers like suckers and mental midgets like the Rushter. Still, I hafta agree that asking your true believers to hunker down in Category 4 or 5 hurricanes seems, oh, I don’t know, stoopid?? We can only hope Rush flew the wrong way, maybe to Key West.
