Rush didn't have a prescription and obtained the drugs through his maid, who got them from the black market, therefore they were illigal drugs.

I just be upfront with you. I have no problem with tax reform. I think its time to revise the tax code. Currently the tax goes up to $250K and maxes out at 35%. It should continue up in increments to higher levels. Incomes are higher now and the code needs to be changed. I just don't like the way certain rich people are demonized and others are excused when it comes to taxing the rich. OWS talks about Wall Street like everyone is rich, but not everyone on Wall street is rich. I'm one of them. I invest in Wall Street and I'm in the 15% income bracket. George Soro, Bill Gates, they are really extremely rich, but you never hear OWS people talking about them. It just seems like selective demonizing

Obama does selective demonizing. Its reflected in the OWS crowd

Maybe that's because Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, and George Soros have all said that they would be willing to pay more in taxes.

I think white liberals don't understand conservatives have differing values than they do. So, they demean them. There's nothing new here, biggotry has existed for as long as there have been different tribes of men.

He became addicted after he experienced a back surgery and was prescribed drugs to address his pain. It's not like people have never become addicted to pain medication because of unremitting pain.



source

Limbaugh, who has a residence in Palm Beach County, was named by sources as a possible buyer. He was not the focus of the investigation, according to the sources.

The radio talk show host said he first became addicted to painkillers "some years ago," following spinal surgery. However, he added, "the surgery was unsuccessful and I continued to have severe pain in my lower back and also in my neck due to herniated discs. I am still experiencing that pain."

He had tried to break his dependence in the past and has checked himself into medical facilities twice before, he said.

Limbaugh said that he is "not making any excuses" and that he is "no role model."

"I refuse to let anyone think I am doing something great here, when there are people you never hear about, who face long odds and never resort to such escapes. They are the role models," he said.

Fine, let them write all the checks they want. As far as I'm concerned we all, at least for the 49% of us who actually pay taxes" pay far too much now. I think we all need to pay less in taxes.

Oh, this is so true to life. At the very least, Libs and Progs ought to be hammering their rich to do the right thing and volunrtarily fork it over. Maybe Gates and a few others are doing it. But what about so many others? Streisand, Pelosi, Hanks, Spielberg, Soros, and on and on. How about some investigative reporting in that direction?!

Can't wait to hear why you chew out the GOP rich, but never your own.
