Excuse me .. your answer is to be rude and insulting! Go back to DU and give it up - okay!!

[LanaTurnerOverdrive]

Good point. If he was taking as much vicodin as alleged, I'm surprised he could even function.

It was alleged that he bought that many pills....not that he consumed them over a specific period of time. Purchasing pharms on the black market is spotty. I often grab whatever I can when it is available for later use. I mean....a friend of mine does.

Dorothy Kilgallen...there's a name from the past! The mother of all conspiracies...the JFK Assassination. She met with Jack Ruby 3 weeks before his death. Dorothy knew a lot. Did she know too much?

Interesting you should mention her on a day when all the attention has been on 'leaks' to another veteran reporter.

There is NO WAY Rush could do ALL the work and activities he does and be on codene and oxycontone and murid of other downers its impossable he would be sleeping 95% of the time

Speaking only for myself, in a half-century of living, I've taken codeine for assorted broken bones, abcessed teeth, and a variety of other injuries, and the stuff just makes me feel slow and stupid.

You may recall that right before 9-11, the usual suspects in the Jackal Pack Press were trying to paint oxycontin as the new Demon Drug-- there were stories of crazed codeine-heads driving maniacally all night through trailer parks to get their fix.

I though it was a pile of garbage, and still do.

I'm surprised your the first one to say this. I'm sure the media-crats will say the same.

Yes and combined with the smear about him " owing " her $80,000 and then adding $120,000 to it, as " hush " money ? BALDERDASH !

What, he hadn't paid her in two-three years ? That's why he owed her $80,000 ?

[CyberAnt]

It's not for money - it's for power! Pure and simple.

The only way the democrats have a snowball's chance in hell to get ANY TIDBIT of power back is if they destroy Rush!

This is a set-up - a phoney - a power grab of the the extreme kind.

[CyberAnt]

Thanks!!

Interestingly, as MSDNC and CNN come back live from the overnight sleep, both are running the ESPN crap (and lying through their teeth about it in a breathtakingly evil manner) as their top story, but completely ignoring the drug story.

[nopardons]

I just checked...the N.Y.POST isn't running with this story at all. It isn't on the front page; unlike the Daily Trash...errrrrrrrrr, I mean News.

[CyberAnt]

Once you go to the Enquirer - you're not a credible witness any longer. This is a smear - this is not a legit criminal case. No credible police unit would allow their "star" witness to give her story to the Enquirer. I'm telling you this is a bunch of malarky!!

[nopardons]

I said the same thing, hours ago. LOL

You're surprised that I'm the first of 665 posters to read the article correctly?

So am I.

[Richard Axtell]

Remember how this plays out, and let's find out who is behind all of this. Backlash should become a word these vile DNC reptiles fear.

[CyberAnt]

You got it!!

[Michael121]

Right. Agree. It seems with some "friends" like these on here, jumping in to say hey it could be true, Rush needs help...etc.... we don't need D-enemies.

Sheesh, you would think that logic has been lost here.

<< Bill Clinton had forcible [Sodomy] with dogs. >>

Notwithstanding that the felonies Cli'ton is known to have gotten away with would have earned you or I more than 200 years in prison for seperate first offenses, that one was not supposed to EVER get out.

But now that it has, you'd better have the hole tawdry truth.

That was why, according to the note it left on once-white house notepaper, poor Buddy KKKli'toon, the nutted dog, offed itself.

[Samizdat]

Time to change the subject. Lets dig up Vince Foster and talk about that neck wound. That'll get 'em going and on the run.

[CyberAnt]

I don't believe this Rush allegation.

However .. the best lawyers (good ones) will tell you it's not a good idea to allow your client to talk. The reason is that their words become "public domain" or something like that and it's a real problem for the courts. It makes some stuff admissable and other stuff not. That's the best I can explain it.

[CyberAnt]

I read ya!!
