I wonder how Rush will feed the narcotics monkey on his back...

[Fridays Child]

...now that his source has dried up? That's question number one.

Number two: I wonder how many street drug-connected Rushophiles have offered to take his housekeeper's place?

Number three: If he's buying as much oxycontin, hydrocodone, etc., as the housekeeper says, is he also buying speed to counteract the narcotics?

1. If he wants a monkey - shouldn't he be able to have one?

The government shouldn't be able to arrest someone because of what they eat, and Rush should be able to buy monkey food without having to worry about getting arrested for doing so.

2. Generally speaking, I don't disagree with the position...

...you seem to be taking about drugs. But I'm not making trying to make a point about that. In fact, if I were trying to make a political point at all, it would be about neocon hypocrisy and double standards.

My questions are merely technical/logistical ones, pondered out of curiosity.

4. I've wondered about this also

Do you suppose the blabbering idiot is sweating it out cold turkey right now? Maybe he has an emergency stash somewhere. Whatever, he can have his monkey but the hypocritical bastard deserves all the pain coming his way.
After thinking about this I'd have to say the pigboy was dealing, there is no way in hell a junkie can hold forth three hours a day spewing filth and hatred, all the time eating heavy duty downers. I hope someone is keeping a close eye on this fuckwad.

3. he will be going thru

major withdraw rush is a junkie and will always be a junkie.i asked a street minister if there was anything i could do to help my junkie friend.."you can offer him a whole loaf of bread and he will only take half" i guess rush took the money and nothing else...

5. not his only source

Apparently he had other suppliers, and I'm confident he still does.

Keep in mind that the housekeeper and that whole supply chain was busted up last spring.

When you consider the amount of drugs Rush was buying, one of two things would have happened:

1. convulsions and death
OR
2. he was already set up to buy from several other sources

Cold turkey is not an option for a person abusing this quantity of opiate-based pills.


an alternate option is that he was buying that quantity for wingnut friends

6. I would assume that he is going to a doctor on the side that is treating

his symptoms. He will have the baddest flu he ever had if they
do this gradually. I expect that he'll be 'gone' for a few days
soon if this doesn't work. But it would be EXTREMELY destructive
to his spin campaign and career if he did. It will be proof
that he is a junkie.

7. Of course he probably bought speed...the weight loss

Why do you think they call him "Rush?"

[liberalnurse]

8. He will be on maga doses of methadone.

He won't feel much withdrawl. He probably will be on methadone the rest of his life.
