Addicts have no problem with denying their drug use or drug problem. They are practiced, skillful and professional performers that can lie very convincingly. They are also skilled and practiced victims that have no problem portraying their victimology for the maxim effect. Rush may well be caught up in a drug investigation and might have obtained some drugs from these people in some misguided fashion that was illegal, but Rush does not portray any signs of a "drug problem" or drug abuse.
Put your money on Rush as having the last word on this subject. I hope the Democratic/Clinton smear machine gets what it has coming to it.

Rush does not portray any signs of a "drug problem" or drug abuse.There is a huge factual difference between addiction and abuse when dealing with prescription pain drugs.
No person can use them for chronic pain without becoming addicted. It is the price you pay for trying to lead a normal life and function at some level without being bed ridden.

Perhaps he was giving pain medicine to his mother during her terminal cancer.

"Put your money on Rush as having the last word on this subject."Guaranteed.
"I hope the Democratic/Clinton smear machine gets what it has coming to it."
It's gonna happen. Those who think they are just too clever for words, always wind up over-stepping themselves.
In the meantime, I'm watching to see who is taking the side of Rush's enemies.
Discernment 101:
A person's enemies, not his so-called "friends", are the best indicator of his character.
Like Rush, I am proud to be defined by who my enemies are.
We already KNOW who they are that have chosen to be Rush's enemies.
THAT is ALL we need to know.
