Rush Limbaugh is off the air. But his critics are only just now getting on his back. As he tries to kick his prescription drug habit, those who hate him are just kicking him. I say, give it a rest.

Neil has MS and has addressed his condition on his show and the FACT that he is in a wheelchair and that he will never be a poster boy to the MS organization just because he has this horrible disease.

Wow. I had no idea.

I do know Charles is in a wheel chair but am not sure if it is MS as well. Could be another ailment that is just as horrible as MS.

I'm an ass because I comment on the fact that someone who daily extoles the fact that he's a "man you can trust in a Motel 6 with your wife or your daughter" cannot be trusted in my bathroom medicine cabinet?

No. But you do your reputation no credit by lying about the man's problem and about his statements. What's more, your insinuation that he would steal your prescription pain killers (Legally obtained?) is baseless slander. Stop trying to be the big shot by kicking a man who's down.

Worth repeating, I agree !! ...

Rush, all I'm saying is there are a lot of people out there still not keen on you. Please know there are far more -- far more – people that are still very much rooting for you.

Could'nt have said it better in any word or deed !

Get yourself better Rush

I have the same problem. What brings them on, I don't think I will ever figure it out. When they strike, I can barely think or focus. I have had to pull my car over several times to throw up. I don't think I could medicate them if I wanted to because my stomach has to remain empty during and for a while after they strike. Luckily, they don't strike to a full blown headache but maybe once a month or two. But, most days I have to live with that feeling that one could be coming on.

On the days when they strike the worst, I would probably take anything to make it stop.

Why all the paranoia about the war on drugs?

Another excellent Cavuto commentary bump!

(It's my belief, that if you're REALLY good, you don't have to be cocky)

Bring cocky was part of Rush's routine. He did it to entertain. I'm not saying it bears no resemblance to who he is, but his over-the-top ego was part of his act.

Downey didn't go on air and defend the War on Drugs week after week.

Neither did Rush.

I always liked Neil and thought he had a class act. This just proves it and makes his "act" even a bit classier.

The Left has no standards. They champion every vice and perversion, even the evisceration of babies.

None of them will ever face a fall like Rush's -- when you uphold no standards, you do not have far to fall.

I guess a lot of people like "cocky", and Rush is definitely good at what he does.

I had to google to check on Charles. WOULD YOU BELIEVE THE FIRST LINK WAS TO A POST ON DU?

I finally found this everal links down.

Krauthammer wrote that he had been in a wheelchair from a spinal injury since age 22. "For 28 years I've been hearing that a cure is just a few years away. Being a doctor, I have discounted such nonsense." A medical expert -- a disabled one, no less -- was preaching the right message in a national newsweekly.

I just love Neil Cavuto. I watch his show even though I'm not interested in stocks and the financial markets. I learned something from your post --- that Neil used to work for The Indianapolis Star. (I grew up and now live in Indianapolis.)
