The Best of America on Display in Houston
RUSH: Things going on in Houston today, over the weekend, we're seeing in many ways the absolute best of America. It is a devastating scene. It is incomprehensible to people with all kinds of questions. At the same time, the heroism and the selflessness that is occurring there to rescue people and animals, pets and so forth, is just a typically American thing to see.
Rush Talks to Vice President Pence About the Response to Hurricane Harvey
THE VICE PRESIDENT: We have more than 8,500 federal employees on the ground. We have dozens of Coast Guard assets in the air — fixed wing, helicopter. Coast Guard is involved in rescue operations. And, frankly, you know, the volunteer effort that is also underway where people are heading out, looking after vulnerable neighbors and friends who are stranded in the midst of this historic flood is… It reminds us of everything that's great about being an American. But, look, it's early in this process. We're a hundred percent focused on lifesaving efforts right now.

Don’t Be Surprised If Bannon Becomes a Media Hero
RUSH: The media could portray Bannon as the only sensible, sane guy in that White House, and he wanted out of there but didn't want to resign, 'cause that's quitting. He wanted to be fired, and that's why he called The American Prospect, and that's why he sold Trump out, because Bannon's the only sane guy in there, and he couldn't take it anymore and he wanted Trump to fire him. I can see them doing that. Anything to get Trump and anything to portray Trump, you know, as unbalanced and a lunatic.
