Summary: good humor man
Review: If you like his show you will love his book. Hilarious, occaisionally rather touching. His thoughts on radio and defending his career from pressure groups by taking it to the streets was very interesting and something I didn't expect him to discuss. As another reader said, it was also an interesting snapshot of life in the eighties. I suppose if you disagree with his politics, you would find this book maddeningly irritating. It is not, after all, a book of philosophy or poly sci; it doesn't make complete argument, so much as smart alecky editorializing. It's rather like the right wing version of the dennis millers rants, with perhaps slightly more attempt at persuasion thrown in.Ultimately there's no sitting on the fence; you love this guy, or hate him. and you'll judge his book the same way.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I never realized how conservative I was.
Review: This book definitely sheds light on the lies that the liberal media and leaders try to dish out to us. Everyone who cares about our country should read this book.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Look elsewhere for accuracy
Review: As an independent, this book makes one lean to the left. Most troubling is that Limbaugh's assertions are rarely supported by accurate facts. Any book espousing a philosophy and attempting to refute another obviously should contain end notes to verify the assertions. His errors are too numerous to detail here and a better summary of the conservative philosophy can be found elsewhere.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I loved this book!!!
Review: People who hate Rush Limbaugh very rarely argue on the merits of what he actually writes, because he's so very hard to contradict with facts! So instead they resort to name-calling and saying he's a demagogue. But read this book, and tell me where he's wrong! I can't find it! Rush is America at its best & brightest!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Not as good as one hoped
Review: Although not conservatively inclined I looked forward to reading this book as I thought that it would be like P J O Rourke, witty bitting and funny. In Australia we do not get Mr Limbaughs program but its reputation is considerable and the author is said to be something of a wit. It was thus a disspointment to labour through the book. The writers background is apparently that of a disk jockey. Most of the book is rather anecdotal and all over the place. The jokes are laboured and long winded.

The attraction of the book is hard for an outsider to see. It probably says something more to people caught up issues. To a non American it just seems to be another " I don't want to pay tax and anyone who wants me to show some social responsability is a commie" type tract.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Rush makes sense
Review: "Rush Limbaugh ought to be institutionalized." Now that's funny.

Though I don't agree with him on everything, Rush speaks the truth on many accounts. If things were more like the way Rush sees that they ought to be, then I really think that this would be a better world to live in.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Sickening
Review: Rush Limbaugh is the Tokyo Rose of America and should be institutionalized because of his disgusting dillusions.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: the defender of conservatives, our very own ATLAS SHRUGGED
Review: rush carries on in the tradition of the late great Ayn Rand if not echoing her verbatim.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A light in the liberal darkness of the early 1990's
Review: Mr. Limbaugh's book is a work of amazing insight and intelligence. His knowledge of the political situation in modern America is amazing to say the least. "The Way Things Ought to Be" is a must-read for anyone who wishes to understand the lies and deceit behind modern-day liberalism.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Tripe
Review: Sorry, that's all I can say about it. Read Al Franken's _Rush Limbaugh is a big fat idiot_ Or check out Fairness and Accurace In Reporting (FAIR) at the obvious URL. It debunks many of Limbaugh's claims.
