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.

Downey didn't go on air and defend the War on Drugs week after week. That's a big difference.

Where is your evidence that Rush went after the war on drugs week after week?

Just curious.

Taking painkillers to stop pain doesn't make you a sinner.

C'mon... 5 years and two known failed attempts at tossing the monkey.

Look, this is what we know for sure... Rush has been addicted to opiates (same f'n thing as all those 'dirty' street analogues - morphine, heroin, opium) for upwards of 5 years. This wasn't pain management (see: cancer patients that use MJ) This was pure visceral pleasure seeking.

I will once again reiterate - I agree with about 70% of what Rush proselytized, but I never liked the man's delivery (It's my belief, that if you're REALLY good, you don't have to be cocky)

If Rush were doing this "week after week", you would think that the liberal media would be able to find something other than that 8-year old quote they keep re-using.

I could not bare to listen to Cavuto when he was all finance. Now that he has truly shown he is capable of handeling a broad range of subjects I must say I am a huge admirer.

Neil, I am sure suffers a lot of pain due to his own health conditions. Who better to comment on this subject than someone who has walked in Rush's shoes regarding pain.

THANKS

Cancer patients us MJ to alleviate nausea and vomiting.

Back up that Rush was knowningly pleasure seeking painkillers!!!


I don't agree with everything Rush every said but I must say I agree with him 90% or more.

What is the 30 % you dont agree with? Just wondering.
