To: I Am Not A Mod
Wow. I find it truly amazing that he has been able to function as he has while addicted to such a terrible drug. But then again the thing about over a hundred pills a day way probably an out and out lie. Maybe a few at most.

To tell you the truth, I am very shocked by this, but I have no less respect for Rush in any way. He is still a great man and a national treasure. It's not as if he decided to go out on the street and buy narcotics from a dealer. He was prescribed a terribly addictive drug after the back surgery that the doctor botched, and he simply got hooked.

What I truly respect is that he admitted he has a problem and is going to get help. I greatly look forward to more excursions into broadcast excellence in the future!

God bless Mr. Limbaugh. I will certainly pray for this great man.

WOW is a good word. He has always claimed that half of his brain is tied behind his back. That might just well be true. I personally look forward to his next broadcast when all of his brain is loose. LOOK OUT. Just my thoughts.

"Maybe a few at most"??

About 1 out of every 20 people who try opiates gets a EUPHORIC feeling from them. Not only dose it control their pain but their worries cease, they can get their housework done, they feel that life is great, etc. But it takes more and more each week, month, year, years,..... Rush was probably taking a dose which would kill a "virgin" opiate user. Cancer patients are able to drive and teach and lead normal lives when they take megadoses of these opiates to control their pain.
