Sounds as if there is a there there. What's wrong with saying "I never bought drugs illegally."

Only YOU can make fundraiser posts go away. Please contribute!

"I'll tell you everything there is - well - maybe more than you want to know."

It would have been better than taking the fifth. I guess he can't come clean until he knows what the prosecution knows.

Rush is one great guy. And if it turns out it is true about the drugs and he is/was addicted, I wish him all the best and I have faith that he will become an even stronger force for Conservatives because of this! This only makes me hate the DEMOCREEPS even more!! They are evil and I know are planning even more attacks. Never forget what they did to Bush just before the 2000 election with the DWI thing! This is all out war now and it will be until the last day of the 2004 election. JUST BE PREPARED FREEPERS! I just hope Bush is!

He's beaten the ESPN thing to death. It will be interesting to hear what the callers will be asking him, if he takes any calls today. If all we get are callers who want to talk about ESPN or football or Arnold, then he's toast.

Ugly times.

Liberals thrive off the misery of others. Compassion? They don't even know how to spell it!

[Eala]

But we don't how much "there" there is there.

The question is: Even if all the "there" is there, does that diminish the information he presents? Or will the ad hominem attacks succeed in silencing this source?

[areafiftyone]

I know - we need tons of mops to wipe up all their drool!

[Destructor]

Rush is milkin' it! He'll have huge ratings as every gullible fool in America tunes in to find out that Rush is innocent, and the allegations are bogus.

Brilliant! analysis. I agree with you 100%. This is a war of sorts and its time for spineless conservatives to act or get out of the way. Senator Phil Graham once said either pull the wagon forward or get out of the way before you get run over, but you are not going to ride for free anymore.

Come on Rush...how hard is it to just answer the question...if you did an illegal wrong, fess up to it. If it is nothing, can't you just say there is nothing there, nothing done illegaly and lets move on? This is not a Gary Hart thing, or is it? Stop with the when I tell you something I will tell you something BS!! Even Imus has fessed up to the drug and alcohol thing and paid his price and is our there on radio today, as strong as ever!! By trying to string us loyal listeners on and on, all you do is plant seeds of doubt. Give us the answer already. You spend three hours a day talking and what is so wrong with just closing the door on these situations?

How will he do that from jail? We are talking about potentially breaking the law here. I hope it's not true, but if indeed Rush broke the law, he needs to face the consequences.

The "Progressives" have a new composite rightwing bogeyman to bash: Rush Schwarzenbush, a racist drug addict who fondles unwilling virgins on movie sets while failing to find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and exposing covert CIA agents who hate their own government. What's weird is, these are all categories of humanity that liberals usually claim to love.

6Fools get into constant quarrels; they are asking for a beating. 7The mouths of fools are their ruin; their lips get them into trouble. 8What dainty morsels rumors are--but they sink deep into one's heart. 9A lazy person is as bad as someone who destroys things. 10The name of the LORD is a strong fortress; the godly run to him and are safe. 11The rich think of their wealth as an impregnable defense; they imagine it is a high wall of safety. 12Haughtiness goes before destruction; humility precedes honor.

Proverbs 18.

At least this mess has inspired me towards serious introspection.

I give up on Ele Rushbo when he led on for months about how he had a copy Of Hitlary's thesis that was being sent to him and when he got it he would read passages from it.

Ole Rush plays pretty lose with the truth when he thinks he can get away with it.

Senator Phil Graham

Senator Phil Gramm. He was a fine Senator who did his share of pulling.
