/p> p>It isn't a surprise, really, that Rush gets that reaction. The Left, believing itself morally superior, is very used to conservatives cringing and cowering whenever they call us names -- what has always offended them about Rush is his refusal to accept their claim to moral superiority. I wish there were more conservatives -- say, in the Republican caucus in the Senate -- who felt the same way. All these "hate Rush" folks have done is reveal what losers, what pathetic "human beings" they are. br> -- Brad Bettin br> Melbourne, Florida /p> p> I was both amused and saddened to read about Margaret Cho's snide attacks on Rush. You may not be aware of this, but Ms. Cho is (or, at least claimed to be several years ago) a recovering alcoholic and addict. I know this because I was an executive of a company that several years ago produced a cable TV show comedy show called "Bottoms." It was a live show at a small comedy club in L.A., featuring comedians in recovery riffing on their alcohol and drug experiences and subsequent recovery. I have no idea how many of those we taped are still clean. But one common theme among recovering alcoholics and addicts is charity towards anyone who is trying to kick the habit. To see someone in recovery attack a person who had admitted their problem and is getting treatment is simply despicable. Ms. Cho has no right to comment on anyone else's problems. br> -- Greg Richey /p>

If David Hogberg really wants to read vile postings on the Internet from the brain-dead of our society, he should try DemocraticUndergound.com.

Beyond the Rush hatred they spew, they are even worse on Bush and the war in Iraq. Many posting they actually pray for more American soldiers to die in Iraq so Bush won't be re-elected.

p>Only a country as great as the United States would send brave men and women to fight and die to protect the rights of even the most stupid and hateful of us. br> -- Greg Barnard
