So, people who use Hillbilly Heroin, a prescription drug, should be exempt? In CA, marijuana is a prescritption drug. Morphine is a prescription drug. Cocaine is a prescription drug. Rush actively sought out through his maid, thousands of pills of hillbilly heroin. HE's exactly the kind of "white man" drug addict junkie that he was talking about. He didn't need thousands of pills because he was in pain - he needed them because he was a junkie. It doesn't matter how he came to be a junkie - a junkie is a JUNKIE. Your twisting yourself into a pretzel attempting to defend him is pretty funny! He's a hypocrite by his own mouth. "There's nothing good about drug use. We know it. It destroys individuals. It destroys families. Drug use destroys societies. Drug use, some might say, is destroying this country. And we have laws against selling drugs, pushing drugs, using drugs, importing drugs. And the laws are good because we know what happens to people in societies and neighborhoods which become consumed by them. And so if people are violating the law by doing drugs, they ought to be accused and they ought to be convicted and they ought to be sent up. "What this says to me is that too many whites are getting away with drug use. Too many whites are getting away with drug sales. Too many whites are getting away with trafficking in this stuff. The answer to this disparity is not to start letting people out of jail because we're not putting others in jail who are breaking the law. The answer is to go out and find the ones who are getting away with it, convict them and send them up the river, too." -- Rush Limbaugh show, Oct. 5, 1995
