Likely true!
Rush flunked out of school before deciding to proselytize how much smarter he is than academia and capitalize on the ignorance of layfolks, who’re prone to mistaking cockiness for intelligence, by peddling short-sighted ideas, based mainly on hate, that seem sensible only on the surface, the depth of which is about all either he or his audience is equipped to explore.
A DittoHead is a special variety of idiot: the arrogant who congratulate themselves for abilities they don’t have and summarily demonize intelligentsia for lacking a “common sense” that is only common to uneducated people.
Hannity was a dropout too, which qualifies him as genius by conservative reckoning, oops but then Liberty University gave him a handout: an honorary degree. But conservatives still regard him as smart, so how can this paradox exist? Well, Liberty University teaches the earth is 6000 years old, so I can only surmise if one is educated in bullshit, it doesn’t count against their common sense… even if it was a handout they didn’t earn.
Now this guy is REALLY stupid:
