On the recordOctober 16, 2001
I first heard about Rush Limbaugh I do not know how many years ago. I was in Cincinnati, Ohio. We were there for Christmas visiting with family, and my brother-in-law asked if I had heard about this radio talk show host who was conservative. I was a State senator from the Colorado legislature. We talked about politics all the time, and had these great family arguments. He asked about this talk show host. I said, Gee, I have never heard of him. The next day we happened to be in the car and Limbaugh was on the radio there, WLW in Cincinnati. I remember listening, and wherever we were going, the rest of the family got out of the car and went in to go shopping or whatever they were doing, and I stayed there in that car listening to Rush Limbaugh for about another hour, just fascinated, not only with Rush's treatment of important issues that we deal with, that the country deals with and all citizens do, but the way he managed to accomplish that within the context of good-natured humor.
