Rush In A Hurry

Naming a hurricane after an illegal immigrant is not right. Hurricane Humberto was only supposed to be a tropical storm, but suddenly they've upgraded it.

Norman Hsu left a suicide note, coining a new Rush-ism. Near death by campaign contributions will now be known as "Hsu-icide."

Chris Matthews interviewed Laura Ingraham and commented on her looks, calling her "one of God's gifts to men." This brings to mind Matthews' recent comments to the CNBC Street Sweetie. Rush recommends Laura's book "Power to the People." Buy It Now. It's inspirational, and really well done.
