Repug Rush supporters starting to turn on him
Rub some of this on the Ahnold wound... it will feel better.


-----------------------

Rush is suddenly silent
Bucks County Courier Times


Rush Limbaugh, the most successful conservative radio personality ever, must come clean over allegations of drug abuse, or he's toast.

I say this sadly, since I'm one of Rush's 23 million fans.

Allegations that he illegally obtained and used huge amounts of addictive pain pills like OxyContin, the "hillbilly heroin," can't be papered over with "let's stick to the issues," as Rush told his listeners yesterday.

Unless he proves the allegations are false, he is no better than those goofs on the left whom he regularly derides as "long-haired, dope-smoking, maggot-infested" wackos.

It's not right to hold yourself up as being "on the cutting edge of societal evolution," as Rush often does on 600 radio stations coast to coast, while at the same time stuffing your face with mind-altering substances that put a lie to that boast.

SNIP - on to the last paragraph

Come clean, Rush, without lawyers, without spin. If you're weak, well, welcome to the club. Being honest with your listeners is more important than protecting your empire or your ego.

If not, then good riddance, you hypocrite.

SNIP

1. So all he has to do, really
is pull a Jimmy Swaggart, admit his guilt and ask forgiveness, and all his adoring fans will rush back to his side. He'd be an idiot not to do that.

(The fact that he *is* an idiot--a big,fat one, at that--has no bearing on the above.)
