1. I saw him interview that woman.
Joe was trying to downplay the use of prescription drugs and first time offenders. She nailed Joe with the fact that 80% of first time offenders do jail time.

Gloria Alred's daughter so you can see where she gets her ability to tell it like it is. Go, Lisa.

I've finally figured out what "compassionate conservative" means.
It's compassion FOR conservatives.

25. You had it right at the beginning
whoever it is, is an idiot. Have we forgotten that alcohol is legal? So, the people who are involved in DUI cases should not be prosecuted, because what they are using is legal?????????????

6. You aren't dead.
Joe's definitely an asshole.

I think this whole shitty neo-con house of cards is starting to fall down- not just Limbaugh.

9. Anne the man was saying that as funny and able to define things as he
was on drugs, what can he do when he's clean? I almost fell out of my shoes.

8. Now hold on, I think that Rush should be treated with the same dignity
and respect that he himself has afforded any other celebrity drug abuser who has checked himself into Betty Ford (mind you, W "kicked the alcoholic habit himself", according to the PR).

14. You can bet that....
O'Really, Insanity and Ann the Man are working overtime behind the scenes to knock Rush out of the park so they can grab his audience. They turn on each other, don't you know. hehehehe

16. Rush's Karma
Edited on Fri Oct-10-03 10:05 PM by Erika
Although I do not wish drug addiction on anyone, I hope it teaches Rush that hate speech and intolerance of people facing problems are wrong.

13. Ann Coulter must be similarly outraged
Yeah, right.

Kate Moss and other celebrities used heroin, and they are hideously reviled by this vicious harpy in her screeds, but wanna bet Rush Limbaugh's partaking of high doses of illegally obtained Oxys has now been elevated to the level of the Holy Eucharist by Miss Ann?

HYPOCRITES! Liars!

OR: All right. Your book's doing great, and it's doing better than your first book, and you have a very big following.

But I don't know why you're so vitriolic in your writing, and let me give the folks an example, if they haven't read your book. Kate Moss. You know this little waif, Kate Moss, this little model. She probably didn't even go to high school. Here's what you say about Kate Moss. This is unbelievable.

"Even model Kate Moss took time out from her drug habit to wrap her head around the war issue. Terrified that an attack on Iraq could lead to an attack on Colombia and dry up her supply, she was foursquare against the war." Now come on. I mean Kate Moss?

ANN COULTER: Well, that is one of the frivolous chapters. It's toward the end. I do cover the celebrities, and that's a chapter that really is just for laughs.


transcribed from his show........lost link

JUST FOR LAUGHS.....use this when the pugs decry any funmaking of Rush's illness.

17. Didja hear his "Hey Joe" fan letter?
Edited on Fri Oct-10-03 10:06 PM by eleny
The one where someone asked Joe if he supposed Tim Robbins rolled over in bed and asked Susan Sarandon if a cold wind was blowing up in Sacramento?"

Well, I sent Joe this email:

"Hey Joe,
Do you suppose Karl Rove rolled over and asked GW "Hey, George - do you
suppose there's a cold wind blowing up Rush's fat ass????"
--Eleny in Colorado"

20. he DID talk about how unbiased he is on Jon Stewart
Stewart tried hard not to fall off his chair, but was way too polite in stifling whatever incredulous reaction was lurking close beneath the surface.

that segment was very hard to watch
