DRUDGE FLASH: RUSH LIMBAUGH WINS 'AUTHOR OF THE YEAR' FROM CHILDREN'S BOOK COUNCIL
What is my business is people like you implying that either hydrocodone or acetaminophen causes hearing loss. Why would either drug be on the market if that were even remotely true? Where are all the lawsuits? Why hasnt Rush filed one? Please, Doctor, tell me the mechanism of action by which Vicodin causes hearing loss in ONLY Mr. Rush Limbaugh, but not the millions of other Americans who take it every single day.”
Been a life scientist for most of my life. Lay people simply think that a sample of one is a basis for making such declarations. I have had to explain this to hundreds of people calling for advice. Besides, attacking the messenger is not what this is about. Rush’s wonderful message in this book should be the focus.
There are side effects with every drug, and I mean every drug. It is a risk-benefit issue. Millions take Vicodin everyday. There is absolutely no way to prove that drug is responsible for Rush’s issue.
Of course millions take Vicodin everyday but do not abuse the drug like Rush admitted to. There is a big difference.
There is absolutely no way to prove that drug is responsible for Rushs issue.
Yes there is. One neurologist quoted stated that it can be differentiated on biopsy which of course would be highly invasive and risky to other inner ear functions.

Really? I’m sorry but vicodin does not induce a pathognomonic lesion.
“..Then they were fed, and then the commie Alinsky would preach his message to this captive audience, and solicit them to join the communist party....”
Too bad a bullet didn’t accidentally crash into Alinksy’s head from some Patriot.
I still remember getting a book at Christmas from one of my Aunts (who was truly an interesting individual)... it was a book about Benjamin Franklin. As a young teen this was the last kind of gift I was hoping for. I wanted fun stuff and more fun stuff.
That book sat on my small bookshelf for several months. Then came a rainy day and it was still the only book on the shelf that had been unread. Reluctantly I opened that book and began to read. I was surprised how much I enjoyed it. That began my fascination with this Founder who was truly gifted and very wise.
With encouragement and rewards from parents such books can make a huge difference in innoculating our youth from the marxist Ayers programs they will encounter in classrooms.
Buy the books!
