Default Rush Limbuaugh's recommendations

I agree with a lot of what he says and listen to his radio show. He advised listeners to check out his favorites.

I am not in agreement with him on this one.

Never even heard of this Charles The Great he speaks of....

Is Rush as "right" as he claims or have his senses left?

Is there anyone he didn't name? How much did they pay him? I would think someone with his income would be smoking more premium sticks.

He was talking about LFD Chisels the other day and was saying he pinches the head to smoke it, and said cutting the head ruins the cigar. that was new to me also.

That's how I open them up to smoke them. It is kind of a unique deal.

I would guess he was paid to endorse this sampler that Finck Cigar Company is conveniently offering to sell you on the same page. Finck probably made the decision as to what would be in the sampler and likely wrote almost every word on that page.

Charles the Great and Lamb's Club are house blends for Finck Cigar Company. He's shilling for them and only names brands that they carry.

The first thing I thought, also, was that Rush was shilling.

The thing I can't understand is:

If they are paying him in cash, how much more does he need when he gets about 20 million a year I believe.

If they are paying him in cigars, he must actually smoke some.

Regardless of what he's getting to pimp the cigars or what pills he's popping, I'll keep listening to his show as it's a great way to pass my commute to work, and I agree with a lot of his political views, which I won't even begin to talk about in a cigar forum.

Maybe we could invite him to CA and get him in a newbie sampler trade.

I think its remotely funny, if only because its mildly offensive. Either way though, obviously shilling going on.

If anyone else calls Rush a windbag, I'm gonna get really mad.

Oh wait, I already knew he was and think that's the reason he's so popular.

Now Jim Carey, that guy sure acted funny and made a lot of funny faces last time I was around him, but kept trying to push Taboos into my hand!!!

This is turning into the thread I posted on CS when Rush was interviewed about cigars. Naturally, cigars were secondary to the remarks in the thread! I personally like what I like, and pay more attention to the reviews here than in Rush's recommendations. Remember that taste is taste- there are some that like Cremosas or they wouldn't be making them anymore!
