But on this side of it? I'm so glad it IS over. This type of bogus suit is just the type to send a lot of people over the edge. Rush stayed firm. :)
And "the Great One" (-;
I'm waiting for NPR to air a tearful piece about politically-motivated investigations harming American democracy.
WHY?
Was Rush guilty until he could prove himself innocent?
Good Hunting... from Varmint Al
Who slept with Rob Lowe's mom.
Thanks for posting this. Sometimes I wonder what kind of nation do we live in? The innocent are persecuted while the guilty are made famous. Presidents can use drugs, rape, lie under oath, etc. Prosecutors are above the law, people who want to live are starved to death and people protest letting crimals and animals die with pain. Thank God there is a higher
power we must all answer to!
"When he wakes up tomorrow, hell still be a conservative icon. And Barry Krischer will still be a disgrace."
Amen.
Rush didnt acknowledge a thing until the housekeeper revealed he was giving her plenty of "cabbage" for the "baby blues"
Now Rush can't criticize junkie Libs like Charlie Sheen, Ethan Hawke, Mr. or Mrs. Wachowski.....etc because he has the stink of addiction clinging to him.
Now, whenever Rush makes a good point, all the liberals have to say is "what does that drug addict know?"
Sorry, but the Mahajunkie has no credibility now.
I wonder if he had a Sam Kinison/Jessica Hahn moment that caused the Lovely Marta to flee.
I'll get my political commentary from Severin, Hannity, and Drudge.
It'll never happen. He's a democrat.
Thank God. The whole thing was disgusting to witness.
Thank you, Mahajunkie, for showing us that accountability is for the peons.
Well, now Palm Beach County can go back to doing something constructive, like trying to throw elections to Democrats.
They sometimes go after regular people for things like doctor shopping where I live. I think it's a really crappy thing for them to do, but some prosecutors are just zealots. It is not at all uncommon for people prescribed highly addictive drugs to become addicted to them. The longer people are taking such prescriptions, the greater the likelihood the patient will become addicted. Once addicted, these people are likely to result to doctor shopping and even worse to feed their addictions. Where I live we don't see a lot of these prosecutions, but we do see some. I think we are seeing less now that they had a case where a person well known in the community was charged and the jury refused to convict. It was jury nullification pure and simple, and I'm glad they did it. This was a good guy with a serious health condition for which he was frequently prescribed heavy duty pain medications. He did get addicted and he did go to doctors all over town getting prescriptions. He didn't do this though because he's such a terrible person. He did it because he happened to be one of those unlucky enough to become addicted to pain medications he was prescribed for a legitimate health problem. This is one area where prosecutors need to use their discretion not to prosecute, or should at least handle the cases in a fashion where the people will not end up with criminal records. The final outcome with Rush is probably not that bad of an outcome actually. For a non-famous person it wouldn't be bad at all. It would ensure that he gets help, but not leave him with a criminal record. That's about as close as we can get under our current system with treating a health problem like a health problem instead of a criminal problem. Where I live though our jerk prosecutors want to stick these people with felony convictions. They aren't really looking for prison time but they want felony convictions and several years of probation where at any time for any minor violation probation can be revoked and these people can be shipped off to prison.
To read later.
Well...Elvis was known to use large doses of pain killers for recreational uses...nobody appears to putting down his good name. The media needed something I guess to clam their nerves over conservatives speaking out...so Rush was their fix.
Despite everything Rush has been through I pray something comes out of this mess.

This whole disgraceful episode was done for one reason: The Political Left was trying to get Rush off the air. After the '02 mid-term shellacking the Democrats took, Daschle publicly announced that Rush's audience was NOT primarily conservative mind-numbed robots; they're were actually LIBERALS listening to his show that began to abandon the Democratic Party because of Rush.
As a result, this pathetic persucution began. And to his credit, Rush beat all of them.
That very much has the ring of the Great One.
I love Rush but this is the kind of B.S politicians do. I'd also have preferred he fought it to its conclusion and won but I know this was the easier and definitely cheaper way out. Funny how a Baldwin brother arrested for COCAINE had his charges DROPPED! Ahh, to be one of the beautiful people.
