I think trying to impose your will is akin to bullying and Patty Sexton qualifies in that regard, herself.
A bully is a person who intimidates, belittles or demeans smaller or weaker people. Rush is bigger and stronger than Patty Sexton in many ways. As a professional broadcaster with a large audience, he's bigger and stronger by virtue of his nation-wide broadcasting power. And he used that power like a sledgehammer on Patty Sexton. If calling her a "busybody woman" was not an effort to belittle or demean, then what was it?

I'm only expressing my opinion on the subject matter and so is Rush.
As I said above, he's doing more than that. He's a bully and you support him.

Quote:
You can be described as a bully here yourself, by your own parameters.
I defined bullying above and I don't fit that description.

Moreover, another reason I think he was on a bullying mission is because he ignored the pertinent issues that she raised. If one doesn't speak to the issues, what's left? The only thing left is "name calling" and lumping her in with those who are against trans fat and SUVs, as if she might be part of a larger conspiracy to take away our freedoms.

Rush would be all for cutting taxes by cutting waste from school budgets, but not football. Oh, noooooooo! We NEEEEEEEEEEEEED football! And to those who will cry that I'm putting words in his mouth, I say this: His silence (on the tax issue) speaks louder than words. Therefore, not only is he a bully but a hypocrite too.
