Stevens says Limbaugh got no help from him
WASHINGTON -- Conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh, who has made light of Iraqi prisoner abuse reports, last week told his listeners this: A U.S. senator authored an amendment aimed at censoring him, but Limbaugh talked to Sen. Ted Stevens, and Stevens had it "watered down" for him.

Stevens, through his spokeswoman, said the Alaska Republican only faxed Limbaugh a copy of the amendment, after the Senate already had passed it.

"We did not water it down," said Courtney Schikora, Stevens' spokeswoman.

1. So, will Rush even mention this?
I'm sure he will not bring it up, even if a caller gets through and asks him about it.

2. Speaking of Oxy-Rush, anyone have any links to his alleged arrest
back in the 70's for lewd behavior?

3. Stupid Senator!
Don't try to censor Rush. . . ugh. That forces me to AGREE with the deceitful swine about something.
