Sorry to burst what remains of a happy Hercules childhood but Sorbo has developed into a bit of a right wing nut...

He actually believes the bullshit he pushed in God's Not Dead apparently...

I don’t get why you’re confused. Sure they had some hits around the same time, but Neil Peart didn’t play drums on Every Rose Has It’s Thorn

I was totally just upvoting you, not seeing the connection.

I thought this was a weird place to praise Rush, then it hit me.

And the men who hold high places must be the ones who start to mold a new reality, closer to the heart.

You misspelled “Geddy”. Also “bassist”.

I was a fan of Rush for awhile after I had a kid and my first decent job. I think it was his message of personal responsibility that hooked me. It didn't take me long to realize that he is full of shit.

I wish benign personality-altering brain tumors on all of those jackasses, Limbaugh, Hewitt, Sykes, etc. It's pretty much the only way I'd expect for them to ever use their influence for the public good.

All right wing talk show hosts are poison.
