Another argument for sending Limbaugh to jail was suggested by the talk radio king himself. Newsday columnist Ellis Henican has called attention to remarks Limbaugh made in 1995 concerning the disproportionate racial impact of the war on drugs.

"What this says to me," Limbaugh told his radio audience, "is that too many whites are getting away with drug use....The answer to this disparity is not to start letting people out of jail because we're not putting others in jail who are breaking the law. The answer is to go out and find the ones who are getting away with it, convict them, and send them up the river too."

But what has Rush said about drugs in 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2001, 2002, and 2003?...I am sick of seeing those same couple quotes from 1995.

That's the quote on what he said. Now it's your turn, show where he changed his tune. You will of course reference his comments as those above have done.

I believe that infamous statement was made BEFORE Rush's failed back surgery, which put him on oxy contin to deal with the pain.

Oh, did I mention that oxy contin is said to be 7 TIMES MORE ADDICTIVE than cocaine and that MILLIONS of Americans are hooked on it by simple prescription every year?
