Gravitymaster 0 #30 October 11, 2003 Quote By default, someone without money who needs drug treatment will be a burden on society. Someone with money, won't be. Yet they're suffering from the same problem. Why should the justice system treat the poor as harshly as Limbaugh advocates while allowing him to buy his way out of it? Why are you assuming the justice system will treat Rush differently than someone who is poor? Why are you assuming he will be allowed to buy his way out? The common punishment for a first time drug offender is probation and drug rehab. My guess is this will be Rush's punishment. I also fail to see how you equate a first time drug offender to a crack-head who commits felonies over and over to support their drug habit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheAnvil 0 #31 October 11, 2003 I never mentioned the name of everyone's favorite senator. I simply stated a fact about Rush's predicament. Must be the actual quote that struck a sore note. I'm for making 8 October National Drug Addiction Awareness Day in honor of Rush as long as 19 July is National Drunk Driving Awareness Day. It's quite sad that Rush has become addicted to drugs and made no comments on his previous remarks about drug users & addicts. I hope he does in the future. If he does, I can forgive his not doing so now in light of what he must be going through. I fully expect to hear from him on that issue however. Those comparing his addiction to that of some of the street urchins who made a conscious choice to try illegal drugs really need a reality check. Let's do keep this discussion about Limbaugh. We can wait until July to discuss Mary Jo's murder.Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gawain 0 #32 October 11, 2003 QuoteQuoteI just hope he learns from this that it's not just liberal criminals who fall into this problem and starts advocating legitimate help for those who suffer from addiction. Well said! I hope so too. The problem is that legitimate help, no matter how much money you throw at it, no matter how many doctors you throw at it, or AA, CA, NA (et al) 12-step programs you throw at it, no matter how much religion or spiritual therapy you throw at it, it is doomed to failure if the victim/subject/addict is not willing to accept such help. The success rate of 12-step programs was significantly higher before the advent of organized for profit "rehab" programs. Less than 1 in 30 will reach 1 year of clean and sober recovery. The numbers exponentially climb from there. Likewise, the money that Rush throws at this 30 day program will not work unless he is willing to truly address the myriad of issues in early recovery on a continued daily basis beyond the rehab. The physical detoxification will last months. The mental and emotional readjustment will likely take years. I hope he can do it.So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

ChasingBlueSky 0 #33 October 11, 2003 QuoteOh well. I'm disappointed in Rush, but still wish him the best. His commentary is usually funny as hell. Unfortunately, lefties everywhere will use his hypocrisy as a tool to discount anything and everything he ever said or stood for - not all of which is bad. I'm sure he'll conquer this with rehab help and come out the stronger man for it.Quote I just can't wait to see how the guy tap-dances his spin on this one when he gets out. It should help with the sales of his next book if he plays it right. I'm not a fan of Stern, but I wish I caught his morning show when this item hit the wire. As PhillyKev says - I don't think he should lose his job because of this. And I see no differance between him and a poor addict that can't afford to donate to charity. I just find the whole thing rather ironic. Sad, but ironic. QuoteIt's not like he drove a young lady off of a bridge while drunk off of his ass, left her there to die, denied the whole thing, then got elected to congress or anything.

A better question would be how much assistance do they pay for themselves, or do they depend on the government to subsidise them? I see, so certain activities should only be illegal and punishable if you're poor. Yeah, I guess that's the American way. Guess that's why Jeb Bush's daughter didn't got locked up for buying Xanax illegally. What? Where did that come from? My reply was that Rush bashes and is "critical" of drug addicts that are burdens on society. Scroll up. Punishment was never an issue in the post I replied to.. Well it sounded like you were classifying Limbaugh as being different than other drug addicts because he has money to give to charities and therefore shouldn't suffer the same consequences for his actions that he advocates for those who don't have his income. By default, someone without money who needs drug treatment will be a burden on society. Someone with money, won't be. Yet they're suffering from the same problem. Why should the justice system treat the poor as harshly as Limbaugh advocates while allowing him to buy his way out of it? First, I was saying that he is different from other drug addicts. He has the money to buy treatment for himself. He will do this without the rest of the country having to bear the cost burden. I would call that a significant difference. Someone here mentioned that an addiction is a disease. I don't quite agree with that. I don't think that you can think your way out of a disease. I'm probably going to get a lot of flack for this view, but so be it. Sencond, I never mentioned anything about punishment, let the law be the law. If the justice system wants to prosecute him, then by all means, he is no different. If the system wants to try to encarcerate him, then fine. Ask your self this though, how many first time drug offenses actually get jail time? I'm not talking about major drug purchases, I'm talking about personal use. Then after you answer that, ask how much tax money would be used to persecute Rush. Should we be using that much resource on all the other offenders? Can you fathom how much that could be? Hey, like I said, I am all for prosecuting to the full extent of the law. You seem to be making the point that he should be made an example of.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites turtlespeed 226 #39 October 13, 2003 QuoteQuoteIt's a shame that the liberals find pleasure in some ones misfortune.
