Heard the I-man mention that he did not know Rush personnaly, but that he liked the guy a lot. I have listened and watched IMUS for years and think I have a pretty good feel for those times when he thinks there is more to a story than what is out in public. Just my observation.

Notice particularly last sentence in previous post:
"As noted in the February 27, 1997 CyberAlert, Snyderman was amongst the 831 people the Clinton administration listed as overnight White House guests during its first term.

Agreed, it really looked like they went out of their way to find the most unflattering photos of Rush. For that matter, it was simply bad journalism since the photos were clearly out of date. Rush has been trim for over a year now.

Here's a start :
(from http://www.mediaresearch.org/news/cyberalert/2000/cyb20000503.html)
A small world. Hillary Clinton handled the 1988 divorce for ABC's Nancy Snyderman, the ABC News medical correspondent and frequent fill-in host for Good Morning America revealed Monday morning on the show in an interview about her new book, Necessary Journeys. MRC analyst Jessica Anderson caught the revelation on the May 1 Good Morning America. After talking about her discovery in 1988 that her second husband had squandered their money and that he was cheating on her, this exchange occurred between Dr. Nancy Snyderman and Charles Gibson:
Snyderman : "So I spent a very restless night and then I did what I think lot of young women do the next morning: I called mom."
Charles Gibson: "Who said?"
Snyderman: "Who said...go down to bank and get safe deposit box. If there are things you need to know, they're always in safe deposit boxes."
Gibson: "And you found a string of unpaid bills, tax liens, everything else."
Snyderman: "Former lives. I dumped that safe deposit box into a cardboard box and called a very good friend of mine, Connie Failles [sp?] in Little Rock and said, 'I'm in trouble and I think I need an attorney and I don't know what to do.'"
Gibson: "Who was your divorce lawyer?"
Snyderman: "Hillary Clinton."
Gibson: "What did she say to you about a philandering husband?"
Snyderman avoided the implication: "Well, that's a great question. Life was so complicated at that time. One of the funniest things was Connie called Hillary and said, 'Nancy's in trouble. We need to find the best divorce attorney in town. Who is that?' And Hillary said, 'I am.' [laughs] And you know what? She's a great attorney. And she said bring down everything. She sat me down with one of her partners who did tax law and this man, as I walked in with this box of stuff from the IRS and unpaid bills and accounts I didn't know existed, he sort of developed this very sweet smile and I said, 'Are you smiling at me because I'm stupid?' He said, 'No, I'm smiling at you because if I had a dime for every woman who's walked into my office in circumstances like this, I'd be a millionaire.' And with that, the legality of dealing with the IRS and unpaid bills and Hillary helping me start to separate myself from this, it wasn't just a husband with another life, it was a series of layers of things."
As noted in the February 27, 1997 CyberAlert, Snyderman was amongst the 831 people the Clinton administration listed as overnight White House guests during its first term.

Guess we did the same Google search :-)
I guess what they say about great minds thinking alike is true (wink!)

Isn't the internet great?! It's wonderful to be able to research things so quickly!
To: markfnkl
Dr. Nancy Snyderman, gave a rather unilluminating, cool analysis, and her only personal comment about Rush was unsympathetic No surprise here -- she has always been far left on her positions and I believe she is a close personal friend of Boxer (or is it Feinstein?).

I respect your bravery! Thanks for the good "intelligence"! If we don't know what the "enemy" is up to, we can't fight them very well. So--carry on.
Rush is an incredibly important general in the Conservative cause and he has--I am convinced--helped his country win an incredible victory for freedom and justice by supporting first the candidacy and now the administration of George W. Bush. I thank God that President Bush is the CIC now--the thought of Gore or Clinton leading us in these times makes me shudder. And just as President Bush is engaged in a battle that he could never have imagined, so is Rush Limbaugh. I'm sure both often wonder if they're up to the fight--and sometimes wish they could flee from it. But the strength and courage they will show--because they are so eager to find and embrace it in others--will give us hope and encouragement. And--in the end--I believe both will achieve victory in their respective struggles. Maybe I'm being too much of an optomist--but so are Bush and Rush. Incurably so--so God Bless them! And you--behind the lines!

Exposure to noise doesn't lead to this type of rapid hearing loss. What garbage...but what do you expect from one of these medchix whose only goal is to avoid seeing real, live patients and instead get paid to chatter? One thing I haven't seen discussed is that IV antibiotics can cause this type of hearing loss. I'm sure that Rush, the innovator, who essentially was the Conduit of Conservatism in liberal times, will innovate a way to continue his radio show.

It's amazing how these networks stock their staffs with liberals, even in positions like medical experts that in theory have no political aspect. Of course that liberal bent undoubtedly enters in to her commentary on issues on the borderline between medicine and politics, such as smoking, gun injuries, etc.
To: markfnkl
That's it -- close friend to the hildebeast (and probably Boxer as well).

This is a golden opportunity for the left to show off its hypocrisy for all the world to see (or, at least, for those who care to look). The lefties will mock Rush mercilessly, particularly if his diction grows worse with time as I suspect it will. The liberals hold themselves up as the champions of the disabled, disadvantaged, and the handicapped. But, since Rush is not only a conservative, but wealthy, he will not be afforded the same sympathy that the libs gratuitously bestow on the common folk. Oh, no. He will be the laughingstock of the left as, I'm sure, is already the case on DU(mp). I would drop in to see, but I just ate breakfast.
To: milagro
Thanks, Commander Miracle! I will soldier on. I have been surreptiously scanning the spectrums emanating from the NBC and CBS transmitters, but so far have nothing to report regarding their anti-Rush maneuvers!
To: markfnkl
the headphone possibility could or couldn't be real.
it is not uncommon for radio talent to suffer hearing loss due to headphones. Total is uncommon, but varying degrees of partial is very common. My guess is the rapid advancement would indicate that headphones aren't the cause.
To: bird humming
I can't say I think to much of Imus as he shows a decidedly liberal bent once in a while. Leibermann suck up for one. Besides that, out of each hour you get 50 minutes of commercials and 10 minutes of Imus. I end up watching that other starting to go liberal C-Span.

Did they mention that Snyderman was an ENT Specialist? As an ENT specialist, SHE missed a wonderful oportunity to educate (as opposed to speculate).
To: Protect the Bill of Rights
Actually, they did mention that Snyderman is an ear, nose and throat specialist. One more reason that I was disappointed by her superficial and unsympathetic treatment of Rush's situation.
Now that I know she is a certified Friend of Bill, this all makes sense. By the way my continuing internet search shows her quoted as a "friend of the family" and making highly complimentary remarks about Chelsea.
To: Mamzelle
I damn near started to flame you. When scrolling down, I glanced at the end of your post, and I thought it said Rush was the "Condit" of Conservatism.
To: markfnkl
The party of
"feeling and compassion" are secretly glad that this is happening. They know that a voice of reason and truth will probably be gone.

I have no doubt that many liberals are gleeful at the news. Then again, I'm sure Rush himself is well aware of the glee in liberal ranks, and that is likely to provide motivation for him to keep soldiering on.
