Good News on the Drug Front	excon	04/29/06
Hello: Well, I feel right at home with you rightwingers today. Me, and you're dude, Limpfellow, have both felt the wrath of the DEA. The difference is, I hate 'em. He loves 'em. So, how could anyone love an agency who's 5 year long witch hunt finally screwed him over big time? Frankly, I kinda like it. No, I hate the DEA, but when they bust a guy like the Limpone, I think it's all worth it. Plus, Mexico is legalizing possession for small amounts of drugs including heroine and LSD. Put that in your pipe, DEA. I think I'll illegally immigrate to Mexico. excon

I don't have much to say on this . Rush is not my favorite radio personality ;partly because of the take he took on drug addiction .I know enough addicts of drugs legal and illegal ,as well as other social weaknesses to know that a strict law enforcement solution is not forthcoming or compassionate .But that is not really the issue .Perhaps he has tempered his opinions as a result of his addictions . The DA blustered 2 years ago and denied Rush the settlement that he evidently gave Rush . Instead ;he boasted back then when he claimed that medical records "indicate evidence that would support in excess of 10 felony counts for violations." They also suggested that Rush was involved in money laundering . Evidently there was nothing there ;nor was Rush's violations as serious as the prosecutor let on . Yes ,Rush was able to afford the best lawyers money can buy . But ;a prosecutor grandstanding is still a prosecutor grandstanding ,and makes me very suspicious if justice is in their agenda ;let alone their vocabulary . The question is not if Rush was able to tilt the scales in his favor with his money as much as if he became a target simply because he was Rush .
