I still want to hear Rush AND his defenders (on the presumption that the facts are accurate) call for either an END to the assault on the Constitution (AKA the WOsD) OR Rush's IMMEDIATE guilty plea and request for the mandatory minimum sentence for being in possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute, which (given the alleged quantities) would be a VERY reasonable charge, even if they were for his own personal consumption... I do NOT mind that he used such drugs, as that is HIS affair as it surely had no effect on me, whether for good or ill. What I object to is the blatant hypocrisy of the Dittoheads who would give him a pass, yet still advocate stiff jail terms for anyone ELSE in his position.

I've never advocated stiff jail terms for non-violent drug offenses. I think it is one of the most overblown issues of the past 2 or 3 decades.
