ABF was right about everything.

My dad took my change of political viewpoint personally. He's the one who got me to listen to Rush Limbaugh when I was 8 because he thought I would enjoy the funny parody jingles (and he was right). Because, retrospectively, that's the sort of mentality to which Rush best appeals, in terms of both style and substance. He gave me Rush's books as gifts. He whipped me with extension cords when I couldn't correctly identify Goldwater as the GOP 1964 candidate.

Of course, I'm kidding. I had to buy his books with my own money.
