Default OT: Good Luck Rush Limbaugh

Well, Rush did something truley amazing today. Near the end of his broadcast today he confessed to his prescription drug addiction, and will check into a rehab clinic for the third time tomorrow to once and for all rid his body of his painful addiction. He will be off the air for 5 weeks. Sorry for the OT, but this guy is my hero and I wish him the best.

It's nice of Rush to throw a bone to the radical left, they still are hurting after the CA recall vote.

Radical Left. Like Shillary saying about Schwarzenegger; she has to be careful not to cross the Preditor now.

*** Dunt! He was a special forces officer in the Preditor!!!

The next few hours and days will expose more of them as being clueless.

You know what? Good for him. I don't like the guy, but at least he's fessing up to his problems. He's getting the help he needs.

I love a ratings sweep. Timing is everything.

Sure... he has an addiction, and I wish him well with it, and his 5 week vacation.

Rehab is no vacation, he will be hurting from withdrawl and I hope his suffering will be short. I would also like to hear about these other problems! El Rushbo can be harsh, but he is no Mark Levin.

I'm sure rehab is tough... but you actually think he's gonna be at the local clinic?

Get real.. he'll be at his Palacial Estate resting on 450 acres in Ireland. There will be a team of doctors, there will be anything he would ever need.

Seriously... don't you find that this is really good timing? The heat is on from his recent comments... and a little media insider for you, a new ratings book begins Tuesday. When he returns, he'll clean up on the back side of the book and his ratings will be artificially high.

There many reasons why this seemingly good thing is just so bad. People who have been in the media for a while have known he's had a problem.... most people don't go deaf overnight, and then fully recover in a few months time. Drugs... they do bad things to good people.

He confessed to it after it had been in the media for several days? Geez, that is mighty big of him. What a great man.

Oops. I mean hypocrite.

So the Enquirer holding this for almost two years then just dropping it out of the blue doesn't key into the ratings book timing?

Curious.
