Yeah. He's just like one of us, you see?

1. You should see the house he has down here (Palm Beach)...
...but pretty much all of his listeners live right there on A1A.

:rofl:

2. It's cheaper for him to have a private jet...
...as opposed to buying six seats every time he flies.

13. Yeah, I was thinking it must be a "jumbo jet"
Perhaps a Boeing C-17A Globemaster to ensure safety when carrying large objects.

...but Rush is and he loves to talk about how rich and powerful he is.

He talked about his Maybach for a half hour one day.

It's my understanding that its a top-of-the-line Mercedes. Very rare and very few are sold.

I think they're around $300,000. They're custom made with thousands of different options.

Edited to add:
This is actually a pretty cool video! I love it when they go into the Maybach room--where the
customer customizes the car. You can get diamonds in select places in the interior...as well as
all sorts of other crazy options. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSdJFrH3Q9A

7. That's how he travels to the Dominican Republic for his sex weekends with 'the boys'.



He and some friends were arrested on a return trip with a lot of Viagra but Jeb Boosh got them off the hook.

18. That pic was from three years ago.



I'm sure he's bloated a lot more than what that shows by now.


(Damn. I would have made I post about his three year anniversary if I had noticed it earlier.)

11. So?
Lots of rich folks have them...including many on our side.

In fact, everytime I listen to him (always try to understand the other side - makes arguing more effective; you know where to hit) he speaks of himself in elevated terms.

I would have been more surprised if he did not have a jet.

23. His listeners don't complain because they think he deserves it.
They probably think that the same thing is waiting for them if they just work hard enough. Meanwhile, the middle class continues to get poorer and poorer and work longer and longer, while the upper income has made out like bandits. His listeners get led by the nose right to the slaughterhouse every election.

But what did you expect from someone who talks into a gold-plated pimp microphone and who calls himself talent on loan from God? Yeah, this guy is going to fall hard someday and I'll be the first in line laughing and kicking.
