Liberals do you agree or disagree? Rush: Left wanted a powerful state. Here it is

[peach174]

Ha, as if you had more than one choice in that scenario. You can always be a homeless bum, but you could never be Rush Limbaugh.

A 1%er drug addict with a book to sell? Is that the new aspiration for the RWN's?

He's not a drug addict, dumbass.

That's right he has been drug free for over 10 years.

How the hell do you know?

He was so drugged UP he couldn't sit still for even 2 seconds. You have to be blind not to see he is on drugs.

What did you think of the criticism that he talked about on the Republicans?

 

[CrusaderFrank]

The Progressive Nazis would like nothing better than to outlaw Limbaugh. They cannot tolerate dissent; that is why they are history's most prolific mass murderers

Oh Bullshit!

He was so drugged out he couldn't even sit still during the whole interview. And he is talking a mile a minute, he has clearly found a bunch of "doctors" to prescribe all the uppers he can swallow.

While you're making shit up, how many puppy dogs did he kill?

You must be blind, it was so obvious. Your MessiahRushie couldn't even sit still while Wallace asked a question in the lightning round. Porky is clearly cranked up on something, if not pills then coke. You do often hear him suck in his snot during his radio program when he doesn't get to the cough button fast enough.

Once a junkie always a junkie.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Notice the extreme hatred, panic, and bile spewing from the liberals in this thread. They are unable to refute what Limbaugh said, so they call him names, lie about him, smear him, and call him some more names for good measure. While presenting no evidence or proof for anything they've claimed, of course.

This is what "debate" has deteriorated into, for the leftist fanatics after they got blown out in the last election.

And they are the people who think they should be the ones running OUR country.

USMB Liberal are the most vile, ugly, awful and hateful people I've never want to meet

[Borillar]

He was addicted to oxycontin.

Prosecutors' three-year investigation of Limbaugh began after he publicly acknowledged being addicted to pain medication and entered a rehabilitation program. They accused Limbaugh of "doctor shopping," or illegally deceiving multiple doctors to receive overlapping prescriptions, after learning that he received about 2,000 painkillers, prescribed by four doctors in six months, at a pharmacy near his Palm Beach mansion.​

Rush Limbaugh Arrested On Drug Charges - CBS News

He suffered a temporary paid killer addiction, something that happens to millions of Americans. Holding that over his head forever is just crappy. But you Leftists are despicable people who would do just that. May you be judged just as harshly for your past mistakes.

He was addicted to "paid killers"?? I don't think that happens to many people.

Then you're an idiot. Prescription Drug Abuse Top 10 Things CDC Says You Should Know The Rundown PBS NewsHour

You're the one who claimed he was addicted to paid killers, not pain killers. I know, just a typo. I normally wouldn't hold a pain killer addiction against anyone, but Limbaugh has been quite outspoken about his desire to see drug offenders severely penalized. I guess when it is his own "hillbilly heroin" addiction, it should be treated differently from some regular citizen's transgressions. Rich people get rehab and no legal repercussions, while poor people get prison time.

You're like one of many Leftists who never listen to his show and go on what others say about him. He doesn't take strong stands like that, his art is parody. His show isn't preachy and not once did he say he wants drug offenders severely penalized. Now maybe you're assuming that because he's conservative and other conservatives have taken definitive stands on drug abuse, that he takes the same position, but he doesn't. Why don't you try actually listening to him, because nothing you say is based on what actually comes out of the EIB Network.

And on another note, very few if any conservatives think that drug abusers should be severely punished. Drug pushers yes, but not drug addicts. There's a very human side of this issue that reveals that throwing addicts in jail doesn't solve the problem. Most conservatives are very well are and sympathetic of this dynamic. So your accusation of hypocrisy is really based on a myth that Leftists tell one another in lieu of the truth and Rush Limbaugh's past pain killer addiction is not an act of hypocrisy. If you actually listened to his show, you'd know this.

Here it is, straight from the horse's mouth (or ass):
"There's nothing good about drug use. We know it. It destroys individuals. It destroys families. Drug use destroys societies. Drug use, some might say, is destroying this country. And we have laws against selling drugs, pushing drugs, using drugs, importing drugs. And the laws are good because we know what happens to people in societies and neighborhoods, which become consumed by them. And so if people are violating the law by doing drugs, they ought to be accused and they ought to be convicted and they ought to be sent up.

What this says to me is that too many whites are getting away with drug use. Too many whites are getting away with drug sales. Too many whites are getting away with trafficking in this stuff. The answer to this disparity is not to start letting people out of jail because we're not putting others in jail who are breaking the law. The answer is to go out and find the ones who are getting away with it, convict them and send them up the river, too.

...We are becoming too tolerant as a society, folks, especially of crime, in too many parts of the country.... This country certainly appears to be tolerant, forgive and forget. I mean, you know as well as I do, you go out and commit the worst murder in the world and you just say you're sorry, people go, "Oh, OK. A little contrition."... People say, "I feel better. He said he's sorry for it." We're becoming too tolerant, folks."

Big difference between illegal drugs and prescription drugs. He was talking about illegal drugs and he was not using any pain killer drugs in 1995.

“The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerated the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism: ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controlling private power.”
President Franklin D. Roosevlet.

This is so much more meaningful and powerful.
Sorry rushie.

Limbaugh said he no longer believed the Garner case involved a chokehold (“What are you talking about?” Wallace asked) and that the incident would not have occurred were the left not “so eager for tax collection.”


“How many cops descended on that situation for cigarettes?” he said. “How many people smoking marijuana did the cops ignore on the way to Eric Garner?…I think the real outrage here is an American died while the state is enforcing tax collection on cigarettes! It’s absurd. People talk about the left, they want a big state, they want a powerful state. Well, here it is.”

Sure when you have corporate money. But then you are a slave to the corporation.
Get it.

until proven otherwise, Lush is full of crap. He makes his living wallowing, and stirring shit. The profession suits him well.

But in fact every pathetic attempt of the Left to duplicate Rush Limbaugh's success on AM radio, even with the aid of tax money, has failed dramatically. It's easy to throw popcorn at people who succeed. It just cements your legacy as a loser.

 

[Derideo_Te]

That's right he has been drug free for over 10 years.

He got busted in 2006 and went into rehab in 2007 so you must be using the new CONSERVATIVE MATH.

He got busted for 2,000 oxycontin and managed to pull off a plea bargain and that just reeks of "white privilege".

Assumes facts not in evidence. He was an addict long enough to lose his hearing. What is even worse is that he is a hypocrite. He condemned others for being addicts while he was one himself. He has never apologized for that. Anyone who trusts Limbaugh is a fool in my opinion.

How about you getting some facts.
He lost his hearing because of a autoimmune inner ear disease not because he was addicted to pain killers. That operation is what caused him to become addicted to pain killers.

The gullibility of Limbaugh's audience is a given.

I am not one of his audience.
How about looking it up on the Internet you who believes the lies rather than facts. Talk about gullible.

Limbaugh's own doctor said that drug addiction does cause hearing loss.

When questioned whether Limbaugh's sudden hearing loss was caused by his addiction to opiates, his cochlear implant doctor, otolaryngologist Jennifer Derebery, said that it was possible but that there is no way to know for sure without performing tests that would destroy Limbaugh's hearing completely. "We don't know why some people, but apparently not most, who take large doses may lose their hearing"​

Rush Limbaugh - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

Auditory sensitivity in opiate addicts with and without a history of noise exposure Rawool V Dluhy C - Noise Health

So the facts are that we have your hero admitting to being an addict, studies confirming that addiction can cause hearing loss and his doctor saying that it possible.

But you believe otherwise because you are gullible enough to believe him?
