Um, whatever your thoughts, please don't imply that I have formed a judgement or conclusion. Until I heard his remarks this morning I was inclined to believe the charges. Then I start reading about this couple and I then offered my impression of Rush's comments.

No more, no less.

To me he sounded like he wanted so badly to say more and offer a denial---that is how he sounded to me, but is following Black's advice.

By set-up I certainly was not saying that if he was lured to purchase drugs illegally he would therefore not be guilty. Nonsense...if he engaged in illegal behavior I expect him to face the music. By set-up I mean that *perhaps* his taking of legally prescribed drugs has been manipulated somehow to implicate him in this former maid's activities. I have no idea if that would be the case. But he did not sound guilty to me, contrary to others' impressions. I am keeping an open mind and won't deny any culpability he may have if the evidence is produced that demonstrates it. As I said, until I heard him speak I was leaning towards the story having substance.

I agree. I think there is more to this story than what is at face value. It's just going to take some patience to let the story unfold.

Good post. My thoughts exactly.
