Rush Limbaugh should be sitting next to them in the dock. Some of us remember him stating on his syndicated radio that drue users should be imprisoned. Of course, he was not including himself in this estimation.

Funny how White supremacists and neo-conservatives, (aren't they one and the same thing?) are willig to run to the ACLU when their backs are against the wall? - The Angryindian

Showing a pic of Stanley Crouch proves nothing. He likes White Power. Your intellect and lack of decorum shines brightly. If you have nothing constructive to offer, why waste your time commenting? How smart is that?

The story is about illegal business practices by an American capitalist commpany and Rush Limbaugh's connection to that drug and its abuses. Why not comment on that? Flaming is useless, facing the issues that affect us all is on the other hand, "progressive".

Apparently your ability of recalling information is lacking. Limbaugh was never arrested for abusing drugs or of 'doctor shopping'. He voluntarily checked himself into rehab and beat his addiction. We can only hope that more abusers follow his lead.
