See, I Told You So

Rush H. Limbaugh

Pocket Books, 1994 - United States - 426 pages

Rush Limbaugh, America's #1 radio talk-show host, bounded to the top of the bestseller lists with the record-breaking "The Way Things Ought to Be." Now, this consummate entertainer and provocative political commentator, whom conservatives love and liberals love to hate - this "harmless little fuzzball" who delights in being called "The Most Dangerous Man in America" - has made publishing history again with a record breaking 2-million-copy first printing of "See, I Told You So." The Democrats may be in the White House, but Rush leads the charge to embrace and defend the fundamental values that have shaped the American character: belief in God, devotion to family, law and order, rugged individualism, commitment to excellence, rewarding achievement, and...the notion that the woman is always right! An no less a liberal then Ted Koppel, quoted in "Vanity Fair, " said, "You ignore him at your peril."

This book was written during President Clinton's first term. It is propaganda for sheep, for bored "ditto-head" men who want to be told that "liberal" is the only evil on the planet of America. It is ...

User Review -

Totally a great book! After reading his first book, I decided to purchase this, Rush Limbaugh's second book. I stand amazed at his literary skills and vision, way ahead of its time, See, I Told You So is a must read. You will find yourself laughing and laughing again, you will be inspired and in awe by the irony Rush provides and in the way he articulates it. He demonstrates the absurd by being absurd day in and day out on his nationally syndicated talk radio show and has done so for thirty plus years. This book is as relevant today as it was over twenty years ago. Concise and to the point, See, I Told You So will appeal to those who want a glimpse into the liberal mind by providing real world examples and thoroughly thought-provoking material from one of America's beloved individuals in the entertainment business. See, I Told You So is a must read for each the conservative and skeptic alike!

About the author

Rising from a Top 40 D.J. in the 1960's to what he himself refers to as "the number-one talk-show host in America," Rush H. Limbaugh III is arguably one of the most phenomenal success stories of the 1990's. Combining conservative politics with satirical humor and showmanship, he has built a nationwide audience of loyalists -- proud to label themselves "Dittoheads" -- who revel in his ability to skewer modern liberalism, from animal rights activists to militant vegetarianism and everything in between. He began his career working as a teenager for the radio station in his home town and birthplace, Cape Girardeau, Missouri. His mother, Millie, once said "He didn't start talking until he was two, and then he didn't stop." His communications' abilities took him through jobs as a reporter, newsreader, and professional baseball marketing executive before he found his true calling as a radio talk-show host in Sacramento, CA in 1980. Beginning with his first book, "The Way Things Ought To Be" (1992), Rush Limbaugh's writings espouse the same concept that he promotes in the broadcast media: liberalism is the cause, not the cure, that underlies our nation's problems. His solution is a return to the traditional mainstream American values of his father, attorney Rush Hudson Limbaugh. His Populist approach connected with a large segment of America, for the book quickly reached the top of the New York Times best-seller list. In 1993, he embellished his theme in "See, I Told You So." Undeniably provocative and controversial, Limbaugh has more than his share of critics as well as fans. Yet, even Washington Post Book World reviewer and critic Jon Katz said, "Limbaugh has no desire to be taken seriously by journalists or reviewers." But as more Americans are learning every week, Limbaugh ought to be taken seriously." In 2013 Rush Limbaugh made The New York Times Best Seller List with his title Rush Revere and the Brave Pilgrims: Time-Travel Adventures with Exceptional Americans. Limbaugh also made The New York Times Best Seller List with his title's Rush Revere and the First Patriots: Time-Travel Adventures with Exceptional Americans and Rush Revere and the American Revolution in 2014.
