I don't care what he stands for,,,,I find him rude, boorish, and offensive. but it's a free country,,,,,he can say what he wants to.

And yes,,,,I've listened enough to make that call for myself.
Rush's call screeners are very happy to take calls from liberals, if they are throwing soft balls.

It's funny, in the new members' section, this discussion is mostly about the vaping aspect, in this one, it's mostly about what we think of Rush. No comment from me on Rush's agenda, I go to ECF to read about vaping, not politics or celebrities.

Copying my comments from the other thread. Because I'm lazy.

Rush is in his 60's, has long been a cigar smoker, and has had his share of health issues. A strong personality celebrity that promotes vaping is good for the vaping community. I hope he is able to stay away from tobacco. If he backslides, his comments about vaping could be less than helpful.

I agree. Rush is a strong celebrity in support of non-smoking. However, his attempts to quit smoking have included abuse of prescription drugs. Not the best role model, IMHO.

Love it and yeah I'm a minority too because I like Rush. No I don't always agree with him but he's not afraid to go against the popular majority whatever that happens to be at that time. I like and respect people who are who they are and refuse to bow and drink the koolaid because I'm kinda like that.

Maybe some of you jaded veterans could learn something from this.

You noticed that too? :laugh: I'll stick to the new members thread.

That's because the experienced vapers know about vaping. The extra-vaping BS is of little use to them, like who does what and why. When an outsider like Rush puts himself into the vaping picture the experienced vapers ask why?

Rush didn't quit smoking by vaping, he quit by abusing alcohol and OxyContin.

And the personal hate vendetta goes on....

Let's keep it civil and keep personal attacks out.


Don't know why you are quoting me. All I have done is have a different opinion than yzer. Much like Rush's opinions are different than his. Green Shirt/Redshirt. Mine are no more valid than his. Just different.

Of course I could agree with him...but then we would both be wrong! ;)
