Isn't his racist comments enough to get him pulled? I find his homophobe and racist remarks worse than any sex dicussion on Stern's show. Oh wait a minute, Stern totally trashed Bush yesterday and Rush is a big Bush supporter, oh stupid me, now I get it.
PS: Clear channel is a big contributor to Bush.
Or perhaps the quid pro quo is more narrowly focused. Experienced Bushologists let out a collective "Aha!" when Clear Channel was revealed to be behind the pro-war rallies, because the company's top management has a history with George W. Bush. The vice chairman of Clear Channel is Tom Hicks. When Bush was governor of Texas, Hicks was chairman of the University of Texas Investment Management Co., called Utimco, and Clear Channel's chairman, Lowry Mays, was on its board. Under Hicks, Utimco placed much of the university's endowment under the management of companies with strong Republican Party or Bush family ties. In 1998 Hicks purchased the Texas Rangers in a deal that made Bush a multimillionaire.
