Again, Dan,

   my point exactly...  Rush does make the claim to bring the facts as you 
(or i ) would never hear them on the "DLM"...  when he makes that claim, he 
is no longer a commentator.  HE DOES REPORT THE FACTS.  when he does that, he 
is a reporter.  a journalist.  and one who falls into the "journalist 
crossing the line for commercial endorsement".  
   let me now say "WOW".   i listen to Rush.  do you???  apparently not.  and 
i must say that I am suprised.
