Yeah, I know it's not cool to enjoy someone else's pain.............

Sometimes, it's just too delicious to pass up.
Normally, I'd consider drug abuse to be a tragedy. But when the doper is Mr. Family Values, Mr. Self-Righteous, Mr. Throw Away The Key, Mr. Rant About Your Invented Enemies, Mr. Spew Vemon For the Dittoheads To Spread As Gospel - then it takes on a different meaning.

NeoN got me going on this. As I read about it, I realized that Rush Limbaugh's addicition to Hillbilly Heroin - Oxycontin - very likely is what cost him his hearing. A dangerous side effect of the hydrocodone is hearing loss.

Even with that hearing loss, he kept going back to his illegal drugs. What's next? Lose a billion dollar media empire? Go to Jail?

The best rehab would start with a regimen of honesty and humility. Anyone care to take bets on this one?

Some guys have all the luck. Others just never learn.
