I could stand to lose.
But dressing in drag helps me mentally.
We all need niacin, if there is not enough in our normal diet then we need to supplement with vitamin pills. The talk show host Michael Savage, who has a doctorate in such matters, says folks of more years than forty, fifty or so (I don't remember his cut-off) should ALL be taking vitamin supplements.
The reason is a that as the body ages it is both less able to produce such vitamins as it can by itself, and less able to use the vitamins self-produced or supplied by diet in the cell's metabolisms. Taking vitamin supplements is a benefit to longevity and general health.
Oh and he'd be the first addict to EVER do something like that.
Why not take two pills then?
I do take vitamin supplements, but how do you know if you are getting the right amount needed?
It was only oral sex, and, besides, he was lonely sounds a lot like it was only prescription drugs, and besides, he was in pain.
Hurt and horney are not the same.
Yes. It's probably easier to tell porkies on the radio as no one can see those Lyin' Eyes.
Hopefully, the prison will have a radio station this hypocritical lying druggie can pontificate on.
Florida has made doctor shopping for narcotics a crime, albeit a misdemeanor.
I believe there are few if any other states with the same law but this has been part of Florida's attempt to clean up their state.
On another topic altogether, I suspect that a big part of Rush's back pain could have been aleviated if he had lost weight OR not gotten so overweight in the first place. His lack of self discipline appears to be part of his problem.
There will be very few conservatives that are not sorely disappointed that Rush pulled himself down off the pedestal. But you are making a grave mistake that conservative views and values are tarnished because human beings have trouble living up to them. Rush didn't climb up on the pedestal; his listeners put him there. And they put him there because the views and values that he expressed was the only public source that validated what the listeners valued and believed. Rush's success is based on the fact that he was the best mirror of what his listeners believe and wanted to see or hear validated.
CS, the best vantage point for scrutinizing is the higher ground, but it is hard to see that looking at the world from your own central hole.
(2) That's a 64,000 dollar question. I go by how I feel an hour and two after. And adjust based on strenuous activity or a cold/flu (more C & E).If I don't feel better, I change my vitamins or skip them.
The big answer is we need more front line nutitional therapists. By "front line" I mean people should be seeing a nutritional therapist every three months afther age 40 until they get settled in a program, and then every few years.
Most sickness and ill-feeling -- including drug abuse -- can be helped with proper nutrition.
Ask your doctor, but don't count on his response to be the "final answer." Some vitamins previously recommended (vitamin E) are now being discontinued by docs because of study results. As for the increased doses of niacin, it's for additional lipid lowering when used in combination with another anticholesterol agent. The high doses do have side effects and no one should be self-medicating without advice from a physician.
What points DID I address in my post? What was the core of the argument I made?
You missed it all.
I don't think you understand morality and if you don't understand morality, why no one in such condition can hope to make sense of LAW.
Not in all cases. This being one. Here's another. The laws in Massechusetts that will come about beacuse of that wild State Supreme Court ruling will be immoral laws. Yet how does one defy them?
Total prohibition is immoral. Why? Because morality requires, at times, drinking. What? That is you've already said "What?!" to that assertion.
But there it is in Genesis. Noah's grapes, Noah's wine. To drink an appropriate amount of wine at times is a moral action, and it is a religious obligation.
Do you divorce morality from the Creator's Law, like some secularist? If so, by such libertarian impulse, surely you'd find that a total prohibition is immoral, even on a libertarian or secularist's "morality".
If not, howso? What a confused muddle of morality you'd then have-- and by that muddle where clarity is required -- an immoral "morality".
The Prophet and King Solomon -- a most wise man -- tells us "There is a time and a place for everything under the sun." Under a total prohibition, G-d's full bounty "under the sun" is denied, is impaired. A denial of G-d, in effect. That is immoral.
Is a partial prohibition moral? Sure. Is tis case one? In my read, no. Immodesty is imoral, and a Government that looks over the shoulder of every action of adult men and women is by that immodest, disrepectful oversight, immoral.
And our FEDERAL government is bound and limited by honest contract, by charter, by it's LIMITED charter. We call that charter, that limited charter -- the Constitution. It has been seriously run afoul of, been broken by those in power. All branches, unfortunately. Hardly a Federal Pensioned Soul respects the limitations, nor respects to adequate degree the due regard to the free and private actions of adults in our Republic.
Why the PROSECUTORIAL class brag as to how they can "Indict a Ham Sandwich"! There's a clue of tyrannnic impulse where we need it least. The fruit of the damn "drug wars".
Yep, everything is a fabrication by the National Enquirer
"Fabricated" medical records, e-mails and answering-machine tapesFrom March to September, Limbaugh picked up 1,733 hydrocodone pills, 90 OxyContin pills, 50 Xanax tablets and 40 pills of Kadian -- time-release morphine, search warrant records show. The court documents indicate that sometimes less than a week would lapse between him getting different doctors' prescriptions for the painkillers."Doctor shopping" is a third-degree felony under Florida law, punishable by up to five years in prison.
Limbaugh first came to authorities' attention in December 2002 when his former housekeeper, Wilma Cline, and her husband, David Cline, met with the State Attorney's Anti-Money Laundering Task Force and the FBI, according to the search warrants."The Clines advised they have been selling Rush Limbaugh large quantities of hydrocodone, OxyContin and other pharmaceutical drugs in Palm Beach County over the course of many years," the search warrants state. "The Clines made a taped statement, providing answering machine tape recordings and electronic mail in support of their information."
The Clines also provided authorities with the name of another person who allegedly sold Limbaugh most of his drugs, according to court records.
Great post. I love Rush, but I'm not sticking my head in the sand. Conservatives deal with facts, even ugly facts.Here is the moral relativism I have seen expressed by Rushbots on this site:
The bitch set him up.
No one ever gets prosecuted for violating these kinds of laws.
He wasn't hurting anybody else.
It's just a vast left-wing conspiracy to get him
You can't believe what you read in the National Enquirer.
A person in such a powerful and public position and as smart as he is would never commit such petty criminal acts.
You can't trust someone who would betray the person they work for.
That evidence will never hold up in court, so he's legally off the hook.
Do those defenses sound familiar? Some Freepers have stolen the Democract playbook and are shamelessly copying it to the letter.
