[Liberty Valance]

Merry Christmas Rush. It's true, you find out who your friends really are during the tough times.

Best regards and Merry Christmas,
Liberty

Haven't read thru all the posts so this may have been covered, but I will opine nevertheless. First medical records ... Clinton never released his, although most presidents do ... the exception, another democ"rat", JFK.
The 4 doctor issue ... two were from the same Florida clinic, another was a CA doctor involved with Rush's hearing problem. The 4th I believe was a NY doctor ... not all that unusual. Rush disappointed a lot of regular listeners to his show, including myself. He had to know a requirement of what he does for a living dictates he live a blemish free lifestyle ... anything less and his critics will exploit the flaw ... which is exactly what is happening. Rush was stupid to give them that opening. However, Rush is a genius as a voice for conservatives ... no one (conservative or liberal) come even close to this man.

A NOTE TO MY FELLOW CONSERVATIVES:
Your silence regarding Rush Limbaugh is excruciating.

And the silence from our "Conservatives" in Congress when Klinton was before them to be sentenced for his CRIMES was deafening...

And the silence from all DemonRAT's media when a DemonRAT is caught is DEAFENING!

So...I have come to the opinion...in the court of Public opinion, I will perform EXACTLY like all the DemonRATs do...why should there be a double-standard tolerated?!

We Conservatives play by the rules, fair and square...we are low-blowed and jumped at EVERY turn!

No more! Hit them HARD..hit them FREQUENTLY...and if we must...make stuff UP! (Although this REALLY isn't necessary...the truth is usually worse than anything we can invent when it comes to DemonRATs).

If the LIEberal intellegentsia wants a war...they have one! And we will fight it however WE deem appropriate...no more of this two sets of rules crap!

The fight is now joined..."and damned be he that cries 'Hold! Enough!'"

I didn't see Rush on National T V wagging his finger at the camera saying, "I did not have drugs with that woman", while his other hand was on a Bible at a Grand Jury.

[Let's Roll]

Rush's problems have been cussed and discussed ad nauseum on FR - if it's not enough for you - sorry. Most of us are "commenting" with our radio listening habits. "Sounds" pretty loud to me.

[Leatherneck_MT]

When Rush has been convicted of something Illegal in a Court of Law, then I will make my judgement.

Until that time he is innocent.

A Message to Mike Graham:

What do you suggest we do regarding Rush ? -

Perhaps, we could all start blogs and maybe some of us could get syndicated by using his popularity to puff our ratings.

Ever think of that one Mike??

[Publius6961]

This a*****e goes from "silence" to "defending him" in one easy rat step. Pretending he likes and has supported Rush is a pretty transparent strategy.
I have not seen anyone "defending" Rush or any other drug user, either on FR or anywhere else. Speaking of drug users, there are drug users and drug users.

Does this ding dong want to have a "your drug users are worse than my drug users" contest? He should be careful what he wishes for.

I wish I were a "conservative" so I could feel the need to respond in detail. But since I'm not I'll just ignore the 'Rat slime machine.

Well, Michael Graham, I've got your "fellow conservative", right here.

Obviously, Graham is a "Rush-wanna-be". By trying to get his web page out there for all to see, and espousing political/personal opinions. I've seen enough people, liberals and conservatives alike, jump on Rush to see that a bit of "King of the Mountian" is in play here.

Well, first of all, I don't believe in jumping on a man when he's down. Oh, the West Palm boys will probably find SOMETHING to convict him on, just to appease the long arm of the clintonites who live there. Hillary knows that if she announces to run, Rush is going to be her biggest speed bump.

Those who try to equate Rush's problem, to bill clinton's problems, are obviously on something themselves. Eight years of corruption, rape, lying, and disgrace in no way can be equated to addiction to LEGAL pain killers.

And "Doctor shopping"? I - and several million others - probably didn't even know there was a law against going to more than one doctor, because the first ones were not satisfactory. If I am in pain, and the first doctor(s) I see won't do anything to help, I'm going to find one who will.

[madison10]

Don't know if it's "silence" or patience. We're waiting to see what happens next in the legal battle. What's to say so soon?

(BTW, is Rush still married to Marta?)

[A2J]

An excellent article that shows the high degree of hypocrisy in those who claim to be "conservative."

[F16Fighter]

A debate dealing in proportion and context is totally foreign to Liberals...

Rush medicated for personal physical pain; Arkansas Governor Bubba and his brother coked-up for recreation, and for baiting broads for diddling.

I think Bob Tyrell and 'American Spectator', and a slew of witnesses can back that second fact up -- IF they're still alive...

[CyberCowboy777]

I have heard not stop discussions on the subject for weeks - this author must not be listening.

[Pablo64]

So far as I've been able to tell, Rush has admitted to an addiction problem and sought treatment. The rest of this is still unproven allegation. If you have iron-clad evidence, then let's hear it. Otherwise, kindly shut your pie-hole regarding things you can only speculate about (or at least admit that it's just speculation and not act like it's a proven fact).

[RightWhale]

What's to say about Rush Limbaugh? He had a good run, probably still has a ways to go. He's not running for public office, so who cares.

[k2blader]

Almost every Rush thread I happen across reminds me why I will never vote Libertarian.

[Lurking Libertarian]

As Rush himself said very wisely and correctly when Jim Carville made the same argument defending President O.J., "It doesn't matter what Ken Starr's politics are if you're innocent."

Worth repeating.

[B0rat]

Granted Rush Limbaugh is trully not on the moral high ground in terms of substance abuse any longer. However Rush is right that there are people who are trying to use his addiction to destroy him. Mr. Limbaugh remains a powerful man, with many loyal listeners who agree with his criticisms of Democrats. But the largest and probably most corrupt political party is not going to stand by without using this as an opportunity to destroy Limbaugh.

And what do you have to say about the violations of our State Constitution ? In your quest to take a cheap shot you might consider wiping the vaseline off of your lens .
Self serving jackass that you are .
