Hang on a sec LR. I'll admit im not a fan of Rush, (He is what my grandad would call a checkered pants Republican.) But the only one to blame for his problems is Rush himself. If the stories are correct, then Rush committed multiple felonies when he bought narcotics without a prescription. As far as some people making a seperation between legal and illegal drugs. Rush bought illegal drugs period. The second he made a purchase off someone other than a legal pharmacy without the legal prescription, He bought an illegal drug, period, end of story. The difference between Limbaugh and the junkie on the corner is that Rush has the financial ability to not have to rely on street drugs to get his high. I am SHOCKED at how Clintonesque some of us here at FR are being on this issue.

And I am SHOCKED at the people on FR who refuse to consider how Rush became hooked.

Once an addict is hooked, they all do what they have to, to get what they need. IMO those who became hooked through no fault of their own deserve our sympathy and support. Actually, not to muddy the issue too much, but anyone who sincerely tries to kick the habit deserves our support no matter how they got started.

You can call it Clintonesque if you wish, but many of us remember what it was like to smoke 3 packs a day or have family/friends who are alcoholics - never mind serious drug problems.
