If you read between his highly delusional lines, Rush is doing a very funny/sad thing here. He is creating a new narrative for all the ills of what could be wrong with our country, the educated. He's trying to make education the new enemy his ideological crusade. He's also stealing a page out of the Democrats playbook from the recent election. The Dems effectively waged a class warfare campaign by making it the middle class vs the rich, corporatist, unfettered greedy ultra conservative Republican, Bush soldiers. The classic have's vs. the have not's, President Obama made it the greed the enemy while Rush is making education the enemy and the highly educated academics vs the common folk red states. He is getting downright laughable, "Ladies and Gentlemen make sure to tip your servers. I'll be here I'll week."
It's getting pathetic to see the GOP with absolutely zero vision or leadership on how to get some semblance of stewardship out of their current state. Think about it, everything recently they have done or are trying to do has either been reactionary or blatantly plagiarizing the Dems: Palin-reaction to initially get Hillary votes
Michael Steele- Hmmm, do you think this was a reaction to the first black president?
Bobby Jindal- Hmmm, do you think him being selected to give the GOP's first response to President Obama was a reaction to the first ethnic sounding
dark skinned highly educated Ivy League President elected?
Rush's new class warfare- copying an effective model the Dems used to win back the
White House and the House of Reps. and the Senate?
It's time for the GOP to re-invent themselves and they have absolutely zero idea how to do it. The country is passing them by and they don't know how to either jump on board or power their own train. It kind of sad, it reminds me of when I took a trip to Prague a few years after their velvet revolution and seeing the elderly walking around confused, not knowing how they could fit into the new society. The world they knew had completely changed and I'm happy to say so is ours.
