And I sure and the hell don't remember any presecutors even "beginning" and

hooked on "scripts" get a pass. (sorry for the pun), but Rush gets leaks to
tabloids, blackmail that is not prosecuted, complete reversal of
investigations, and the special attention of states presecutors. Does not
seem very fair to me. Hell It would be different if Rush was caught with a
bag full of hundreds of pills. But he wasn't.

Farve was an asshole for taking that sack so Strahan could get the
record... and Rush would take several hundred pills on a weekend -
several hundred - think about it.

Payback time for what, his opinions?

Ummm, yes. Rush is the moron who said that all drug abusers should be
rounded up and thrown in prison. Are you saying this shouldn't apply
to him? Why? Because he's a media hero and your guru?

My my, this is mighty liberal of you, you're concerned about revenge
against a person that has done nothing against you other than to hold
opinions that are judgmental.

Not just judgemental, absolutely stupid. And payback is a bitch, isn't
it?

But you are willing to let the people that actually adversely impact your
life to get away with it without a whimper. (let's see, Bill Clinton come
to mind, as does a cavalcade of other corrupt politicians, lying
broadcast show hosts, deceiving doctors, etc.)

Bill Clinton allegedly lied about a blow job. Rush Limbaugh DID lie
about drug abuse. There is a difference, except in dumb conservative
minds, I guess.

As the jobs flow overseas, (yes, yes, Mr. Bush is increasingly to blame
for this as well), as your Rights ebb away under this Patriot act or the
other, as your guns are confiscated, as your health care coverage lapses,
we'll all know that you got your priorities straight because one of the
few things that inspired you to action was taking delight in the
destruction of Rush.

"W" is destroying himself through absolute stupidity. If you can't see
that, you're a stupid as he is.

I don't listen to Rush anymore, haven't for many years now. But, and I
have a very big but, (From Pee Wee Herman's movie), if they apply undue
attention to Rush, they need to revisit all of the other politicians,
actors, and sports figures that have been caught up in similar misdoings.

I never did, but I know he's a pompous jerk. And always was. But why
would it be "undue" attention? If he's a fraud and a liar, it's
certainly "due" attention. Unless you happen to be a dumbass
"dittohead", of course. Then logic doesn't apply.

Merry Christmas

Merry pagan winter feast day to you, too.

If being an asshole were sufficient grounds for incarceration, most the
the current collection of nobodies trying for the Democratic nomination
would be in jail.

Let's not damn with faint praise here... so would most of the current
administration.. but then, I figure that could easily be applied to nearly
every politician on both sides of the spectrum... :)

It is not whether the law was broken, it was.

In the case of Bill Clinton he obstructed justice, perjured himself, and
tampered with witnesses. Rush obtained prescription drugs illegally,
tampered with witnesses, and probably possesed enormous quantities of
prescription drugs illegally.

I am questioning the application of the law.

Lets face it, anyone of us has broken a multitude of laws, some more serious
than others. It just seems to me that there seems to be a special place in
the heart of most liberals for Rush. My point was that if it were just
about anyone else the prosecutor would have bailed on the case and forgot
it. Your personal attacks against anyone that agrees with Rush just prove
my point.

Lets say that you are the states prosecutor. You would go after him with a
vengeance. Well ok, so be it. How did you feel about Ken Star? Did you
like that? Did you think that was fair?

What I am talking about is the biased use of power. Anytime it used in this
way it is bad. It makes a mockery out of our court systems and makes me
rethink being politically or socially involved. I mean I could get a ticket
for jaywalking because some police officer seen me in a social/public venue
that he/she did not agree with. While at the same time a police man lets a
guy off a speeding ticket because he is wearing a Mason's ring? Don't think
it has happened?
I know it has! (The Mason Ring example that is)
