word games...
You are stating it is a fact. "Rush's hearing loss was due to a virus. It was not due to his alleged abuse of narcotics."
I didn't, or didn't mean to. Look, he screwed up, got addicted and if that's why he lost the hearing so be it. But don't expect him to be honest about it, if that's the case. I'd lie too. Here's a question for you: Would he have admitted the addiction if he wasn't outed by the National Enquirer?
I guess you've initially avoided my question about being a Rush basher. If you are, you should own up to it.
I don't know Rush personally, though I think he has done very good things for conservative causes. His hearing loss really has nothing to do with it.
I'll admit whatever you want but it still doesn't change the fact that I'm not a Rush basher, and I get tired of those who are.
