With a good detox program, Mr Limbaugh might become a liberal. At least the effect of the drugs--if correct--would explain his views. I would be an angry screamer too with all those side effects. >>>>The drugs Rush Limbaugh is accused of abusing are legal only with a doctor's prescription. All are habit-forming. - Hydrocodone Anti-cough agent and painkiller similar to morphine. Side effects include anxiety, poor mental performance, emotional dependence, drowsiness, mood changes, difficulty breathing and itchiness. - Lorcet Brand name for the combination of Tylenol and hydrocodone, prescribed for moderate to severe pain. Side effects include dry mouth, nausea, vomiting, decreased appetite, dizziness, tiredness, muscle twitches, sweating and itching. - OxyContin Potent time-release medication for relief of moderate to severe pain, known as hillbilly heroin because of black-market popularity in some rural areas. Side effects include drowsiness, dizziness, sweating, muscle twitches and decreased sex drive. A large dose can be fatal.<<<< Edit: Hmm. On second thought, some liberals tend to be angry screamers too. Maybe he could become a moderate.

I feel sorry for the guy right now. Though frankly, pretty much every talk show host I've ever heard I prefer to Rush. I could never understand his popularity versus everyone else in the genre.

Jeez, he's lucky to be alive. He must have the constitution of an elephant. I don't understand why he should be in much pain from a cochlear implant, though - my husband has had two, and we know several people who have had them, and they weren't in any extraordinary pain.
