Has Limbaugh been to the doctor since his "recovery" program ?
He says he was taking the pills for pain. Did the "recovery" program also cure his pain? Or is he just sucking it up and living in pain? Funny, he doesn't sound like he's in pain when he slobbering all over my radio...But if he still had pain, wouldn't he still be on some medication?

1. On the air yesterday....
he slurred his words several times and sounded rather space-cadetish. My bet, and I truly regret this, as I wouldn't wish addiction on anyone, is that he's using again.

5. Something was definately up with him yesterday..
Edited on Tue Dec-23-03 09:50 AM by Cannikin
As I've stated in other 'rush' threads, he was way off his game yesterday. I was rather amused that his callers made better points than he did yesterday. It was probably Xanax to calm his nerves since it was a big day for him in court.
I bet today he's hoping to play the roll of the victim because of the extortion.


"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."
-- Rush Limbaugh show, Oct. 5, 1995

3. He's still in denial which means any recovery is doomed to fail
With his attitude, he's a goner. Rehab is WAAAY more than just drying out. It requires a whole life change. If you come out of rehab with the same attitudes you had when you went in, you will use again. It's that simple.

I won't shed a tear when he OD's.

9. Good point. They really are his enablers, aren't they
Ironic that his supporters will doom him to relapse and death.

Fitting though

6. I was wondering about that
Maybe to the drs. we don't know about. How could that vapid piece of refuse sit and spout out hate to the faithful for three hours a day five days a week if it's in constant pain??? Beats the fuck out of me.

He's not going to make it anyway, this little rehab stint was just a show for the legal people. If you're really and truly a full blown addict the way to get clean is to adopt an entirely new life, that means walking away from your old life, embracing total honesty, and being 100% true to yourself, nothing NOTHING is as important as staying clean.

I don't believe for a moment that this fuckwad can even come close, and as more pressure mounts the odds increase that we find the pigboy dead of an od.

8. he took a vacation in an exclusive resort
they just pretend it was rehab so he can spin that as "punishment" enough.

The pig should fry. His on-air confessions alone prove he is a felony drug criminal who lives in a state with zero tolerance drug laws.

13. I wouldn't say Florida has zero tolerance drug laws


They're 100% if your last name's Bush.

12. Strange how the pain never kept him from golfing too
I used to golf a little...until I screwed my back up and now I would not even consider swinging a driver. It would be too damn painful to do. I just do other stuff now.

14. I have back problems too
But if I scarfed as many Oxys as Rush, I could probably perform with Cirque du Soleil and not feel a thing.
