He'd have to wonder at the spelling ability of pundits.

Bane =/= Bain

Although, I can see the simularity...one is a dangerous villain and the other is a comic book character.

Rush is afraid that the audience might be as brain dead as his. I don't think he has to worry. Most viewers of Batman movies can distinguish fiction from reality, his audience cann't. Rest easy Rush.

Poor Rush has so much airtime to fill. It would be so out of character for him to refrain from disparagement.

This Bane/Bain noise is the sort of insight I hear from 4th graders who are off their ADD meds for the summer months.

Yeah. Obama went back in time to 1993 and pitched a lame idea to DC Comics about a supervillain who would break Batman's back.

I used to think that most of the country was like me. Maybe not as educated or as affluent but that we shared certain values: Our childrens opportunities should be better than ours; when someone falls down, you help them up; we are all in this together; etc. What Dubya and his viled compadres taught me was that I was very, very wrong. It is a tough lesson to learn when one is 50 years old.

Rush is foul, despicable, the stuff I scrape off my shoes. He is not stupid. He knows exactly how to manipulate his audience.

If jefferson was around today he might be questioning what he and the rest of the founding fathers did.
