If you recall, Lonsberry was fired last week from his Rochester, NY and Salt Lake City radio job becaused he made a "racial" reference to to a Rochester politician. Another loss to political correctness.

Its been a tough week. On Sunday, you said an NFL quarterback was a media sweetheart because he was black. By Wednesday that had cost you your TV job. Then on Thursday, word leaked that you might have a drug problem, and had spent four years scoring OxyContin from your housekeeper. I wonder about the timing of the Thursday smear. We know how the 'Rats love to kick people when they're down. I would not be at all surprised if the 'Rats had the drug story in the hopper for some time, and timed the release to provide a one/two punch.
Remember the Clinton connection. Zuckerman at the Daily News is a old cards-playing buddy of Bubba, and Bubba's lawyer is the in-house consigliere for the National Enquirer. These two outlets have been the source of numerous Clinton plants over the years. It's kind of a "Communication Stream of Conspiracy Commerce", if you will.

Rush - don't play victim and try to say this is a "left wing " conspiracy against you. Stand up, don't be a crybaby wimp and play the role of victim. Stand proud & tell it like it is, never back down. Fight unto the end - no one respects someone who won't face their enemies to be respected. Fight fire with fire.

Rush is being destroyed before our very eyes. When you are a hard line conservative theres nowhere else you are allowed to go. If you are a left leaning democrat any perversion is acceptable to the world. It makes me remember how we lost Nixon,Gingrich,and so many other of our right wing champions.Once they crossed the invisible line the shit hit the fan. The sad thing is that all of them did it to themselves. It isnt the race thing that will get Rush but the drug use if it is proved true. The question of the day is who will pick up the torch?

Your problem was you are white and you mentioned race.
So many people say we have to "confront" race, bring it out of the closet talk about it. But it appears to your humble servant that this is code speek for white people to flog themselves over the actions of a few and excuse the actions of some blacks.
Sorry, I refuse to play that game.

Unless of course he is innocent. I can't beleve the number of pills. How do you take that many and not end up in the hospital? Sounds like his housekeeper was trying to account for the pills that actually went to a number of customers. Like maybe she would get a lighter sentance if she was simply an enabler of one person instead of a pusher for many.

Don't you think your comments are a little premature to say the least?

That OxyContin is a devil sweeping across the country.This is an example of why people who need pain relief do not get adequate treatment. This particular drug is very effective at relieving pain but doctors are highly regulated in prescribing it (a class II drug).
Why? Because of its "potential for abuse". What's the problem with this? Because some people abuse this drug, everyone has to suffer for it.

Some of those people shouldn't have resigned either "Nixon,Gingrich,and so many other of our right wing champions." Guilty or not, Rush has a lot to give. We weren't following HIM so much as the message and the messenger does not make the message.

DRUDGE REPORT **Exclusive**
President Bush expressed support of radio star Rush Limbaugh in conversations with top staff on Thursday, a senior administration source told the DRUDGE REPORT.
"Rush is a great American," the president said of the beleaguered host, who has championed the conservative movement for decades. "I am confident he can overcome any obstacles he faces right now."
Like President Bush, I am confident, of that, too.
I especially like and agree with his use of the word, "ANY".

Gee, that black coach that claimed that "WEATHER CONDITIONS" affected how players of different races perform still has his job.
Oh, I forgot only "SOME" can talk about "THINGS" that affect people of different races.
Rush was exposing how PC'd the media has become and part of the reason is there is a blackmailer the Rev. Jackson running around and collecting his shake down from deep pockets.

Should you quit your radio show? Should you give up your career? Only if you want to send the message to every other addict out there that they are useless and ruined and ought to jump off a bridge.
But if you believe you can lick it, if you believe you can lay bare you soul on this matter to your audience, if you believe you still have something to offer, then you should stay on the air.
Personally, thats what I think you should do.dittos

I've been telling my hubby for years that this country is headed for civil war
between the races. There is a LOT of anger simmering just below the surface.

Rush,
Do the Ramsey thing and surround yourself in lawyers. Remember: everything you say can and will be used against you. Don't even mention these allegations on the air.
We will continue to admire and respect whether you popped illegal painkillers or not. We don't need to hear your "side of the story".

Everone needs to reminded of the way in which Rush handled his hearing loss.
He didn't wine, complain, feel sorry for himself, or let anyone else feel sorry for him, or give up. The man dealt with it head on like so many other things. In a matter of time, he was right back to his media gig and doing just fine.
The way in which he handled his hearing loss was demonstrative of his true conservative convictions.
