No you're wrong.

Now answer me a question. Have you heard a single report of a disinterested party reporting ever seeing Rush Limbaugh in visible pain? Ever? Sure is strange, considering all the arguments defending the illegal use of narcotics to treat chronic pain. Very strange indeed.

So have you?

Rushie - god bless his formally nicotine stained fingers - was jonesing for a hook up just before his second trip to Serenity Hill.

Sounds great, but when the LIBERAL media makes such a big deal about Rush, and ignores media stars like 'Matt"(and if this is correct, he used an ILLEGAL drug); I give up.

There is a huge difference in legal drugs and illegal drugs.

Maybe it's only me, but I have a major problem with cocaine users VS prescription drug users.

What I'll be interested to see is how differently Matt is treated vs. how Rush was treated.

I hope this is not still true about Matt. But 20 years ago is a bit much. I'm confident we will be much more tolerant of Matt than Katie was tolerant of Rush.

...Of course the Left will circle the wagons around Lauer if these allegations turn out to be true. Sadly that's a no-brainer. Just like they did with Aaron Sorkin, former producer of The Left-er-I-mean-West Wing.

Well you're the first. You should go public with a signed affidavit. I'm sure you could go get lots and lots of airtime to defend Rush Limbaugh with a credible report of seeing him in visible pain since there has been no previous report.

But you were kind of light on detail. Why don't you share the context publicly so Rush can be more competently defended against charges of being a run of the mill drug addict?

Interesting......this is more serious than Rush....actual non-prescription drug use.

I hope he has recovered from the addiction in any case.

Are you suggesting Rush wasn't in physical pain because there have been no reports by "disinterested" parties that he was?

I have seen Rush in visible pain.

Certainly after Clinton won in 1992, he was. I was in excruciating pain, myself, that night.

I doubt I am the first and only.

But frankly, it is none of your business.

I was a little kid in the 80's, but I had a crazy time in the 90's.

Should my drug use, drunkenness, etc back then disqualify me for service in the future?

God help him (and p.s. that ought to squelch the preaching over at 30 Rock).
