Well I appreciate that you actually read what I posted. Wasn't sure if you were ignoring them or not.

Many people don't make up their own minds, they just go off of what someone else tells them. If you look at the actual words of the person being spoken, in the appropriate context in which they were said, and then you still come to the conclusion that you don't believe what they're saying, then you can say you have an informed opinion. The Daily Show isn't enough to have an informed opinion.

Kind of like how I know a lot about Obama, have watched his speeches and debates, kept track of what he says in office versus what he said during the campaign... and that's how I come to my opinion on his health care plans for example. It's an informed opinion.

I'm not sure what about me you think is dull and sheep like. I am fascinated by this stuff, as I think you see from my posts. I am very interested in the way people come to their beliefs, why they hold those beliefs, and how that all relates to who gets elected in Washington. I'm not usually satisfied by "Shock jocks" or whatever you think is style over substance... I like real substance when it comes to these topics. Nothing dull or sheeplike about it. Rush is one of the most respected political commentators there is, and both people from the right and left listen to him religiously. As I said, if Rush says it one day, the president of the united states addresses it the next. Along with everyone else in Washington.

But that is a common anti-Rush statement, that the people who listen to him are mindless robots. Can't speak for them, but that's how I feel about it.

Might as well just leave the discussion there.
