It's a bold statement, but one I stand by. Here is a man who has gained notoriety - and thus influence - by spreading hate and discontent. Here is a man who has a long and sordid history. And here, too, is a man who has gone on the public record to say he hopes President Obama fails.
Oh, and did I mentioned Rush calls himself a Christian? Worse still, his devotees call him a Christian as well. And themselves too.
There have been a lot of studies recently showing that people think Christians are more judgmental, less forgiving and more hypocritical than non-Christians. These same studies show that people who do not yet know God, are turning away in droves simply because they see so many so-called Christians -the judgmental, damning, hypocritical people like Rush - and want nothing to do with them.
It's a shame, really.
Jesus tells us we are to pray for our enemies. And this is my prayer to Rush - a man I consider to be an enemy of Christianity.
I pray that he finds Christ. Not religion, but Christ.
He's already found religion. Or at least that's what he says.
