5. He's also a lot like Father Caughlin

google Toyko Rose. I used to shop at J. Toguri Mercantile http://www.weeklywire.com/ww/01-20-98/chicago_cover.html

It seems that "Toyko Rose" is an Urban Legend of sorts.

However, Rush Limbaugh is very real.

When I think of Limbaugh, I think of the Nazis bragging about the corporate money that bought them a thousand broadcast cars to propagandize the nation. The Nazis also bought up all the radio in Germany. See how it's done?

6. I Met Eva Toguri

In the 70's...she did a guest interview on a local Japanese radio program in Chicago...right after her pardon from Gerald Ford. Eva's story is fascinating as she was born in this country and was trapped in Japan when the war broke out.

She spent the decade following the war in jails and then faced being considered a traitor in her native country...the U.S. and a non-person in Japan. Although she was in her 50's when I met her, she looked like she was in her 70's.

Eva read what she was told to. Rushbo does his own writing and promotes it for his own personal gain. He makes flaunts it and had removed himself from any accountability through his ratings and financial influence.

Someone named Father Coughlin...who is a close Rushbo clone, but never had the political influence that Rushbo enjoys. I see Rushbo more as a distorted parody of a Machiavelli or Metternich...who used their media...the written word to spread their philosophies. Difference between them and Rushbo is that they had all of their IQ not tied behind their back.
