It's obvious that once Rush's doctor stopped prescribing the pain pills for him, he sought other ways to get them.

OBVIOUS? Based on what, the National Enquirer?! Why don't we wait to hear from a credible and, dare I say, official source before we pronounce judgement?

My God, you are living in fairy tale land!

The man just admitted he’s an addict. He has a problem and needs rehab.

He was either obtaining those drugs in those amounts illegally, or his doctor is going to jail.

You can cling to the later possibility, but obviously the first is far more likely.

"OBVIOUS? Based on what,"

Well, Rush says in his statement today that he's addicted to prescription pain killers. I find it hard to believe that any doctor would prescribe addictive pain pills for an individual over a period of several years, especially if the person taking the drugs has shown signs of addiction. Rush states that he underwent rehab twice before. Why would any doctor prescribe addictive pain killers to someone who has already been in rehab twice? There's still some grey areas that Rush needs to clear up on this story.
