   You are quite mistaken, my friend.  Rush are *very* conservative.  Go to   
   theguardian.com and do a search for "Rush, socialism."  I'll give direct   
   quotes later if you like.  But they are extremely conservative, and *modern*   
   conservative, at that.  Not old    
   school like Barry Goldwater or William F. Buckley, but very much in line with   
   our current President, Sean Hannity, Michael Cohen, and America's Mayor Rudy   
   Giuliani.     
      
   When I see Rudy Giuliani on Fox News, I can practically hear Neil Peart making   
   up for his recent inactivity on the drums with vigorous applause.  I   
   definitely feel that Neil will be inspired by the Trump Administration's   
   doings to return to lyrics and    
   drums, and also to rediscover his Christian Faith.  This will make for a fine   
   comeback album, and will forever silence the fringe of Rush's fanbase who   
   project liberalism, "science" (which has been perverted by the left and   
   reinterpreted to appear    
   incompatible with Biblical teachings), so-called "reason" and even atheism   
   onto Rush.   
      
   These are deeply religious and conservative men.  And no one who reads the   
   article on theguardian.com will doubt this for one instant.   
      
   Like Jesus, Rush will return to stamp out the nonbelievers.  And like Trump,   
   they love the Old and New Testaments equally.  Their humility in the face of   
   God prevents them from showing off and quoting the Testaments in casual   
   conversation; but their    
   comeback work, their REVIVAL if you will, will state clearly and unequivocally   
   their love of God and Christian Faith.
