Is "Rush" really his first name or a nickname?

It's just always funny when a fat or a slow guy is called "Speedy" or "Zippy" or "Flash" (or like "Lightnin' " on the old "Amos and Andy Show).

Voted for Bush x2 and McCain, just don't like being bullied by the "Social Conservatives". They should just start their own party, the country is big enough for another political party. It shouldn't be a choice between just socialism or strict religious values. There's gotta be a middle ground for us independents. Sorry, was I ranting?

Good Luck Everybody, with the rest of 2009!

Update:

Will,

You say Rush has us scared. Who do you mean? Us 60% of the population in the middle who are not really part of either party?

Yeah, you hard-core nutacase 20% on either side just go on fighting with each other. Most people in the USA are independents, even if they register with one party for convenience.

    No it's his real name. The Limbaugh name is prominent in Missouri. Rush comes from good stock.

    I believe that his name is something crazy like, "RUSHSHOSHANNA".......For short, he is called RUSH.....

    PS: That would probably explain his "GHETTO" mentality......-D)
