A Rush job to save face El-Rushbo, is el-stupido!
Rush Limbaugh's spin team came up with a secret plan to save their boss after the
conservative commentator admitted he was addicted to painkillers, the Daily News
learned yesterday.

The plan involved taking up former Sen. Bob Dole's offer "to help" the embattled
radio jock - and suggesting he write a supportive letter to Newsweek magazine.

The Oct. 13 memo to Premiere Radio Networks' president Kraig Kitchen, obtained
by The News, also recommended doing a survey of Rush's listeners to gauge their
reaction to Limbaugh's embarrassing admission.

"If results are positive, we can use PR with stations, advertisers and media," the
memo states. "If not, we don't have to publicize."

It also urges "Kraig to send memo to Congress" with updates on "coverage,
advertiser and affiliate feedback."

1. Hard to live in a glass house if ............. oh well you know the rest.
I do think this type of endless drug stuff is foolish but Rush did not and the law is with his wanting to send them to jail.

I cant remember which show it is..but its tonight. He's supposed to give his strategy for his defense. I'm hoping someone will come up with a compilation of his anti-drug comments. I'd love to hear it.
And this is unrelated, but I'm anxious to see if he defends his buddy, Drudge. Bill O has attacked him pretty hard.


....This is my first post and I'm pleased to be here, by the way.
