he'll mention perjury traps, how senate can't call witnesses unless trump gets to call the bidens and maybe even brennan, obama etc, and trump's making sure lmbaugh will attack the crap out of the senators 'on the fence' or suggesting witnesses without bidens

the only one missing there is putin

lmbaaugh might name a few senators but generically will tell the dittohead/teabag/trumper/evangelical base (all the same) that any republican senator in any state who starts to cooperate with dems is a traitor needing punishment

and maaking sure lmbaugh will re'tweet' his tweets on 600 radio stations and from them onto 1000 more

media needs to know if trump/russians have been paying talk radio gods because dr fiona hill is not an idiot

So I ask: do campaign and election law have anything to say about a person running for office and a person such as Limbaugh and what they would have to declare or register as? Doesn't this meeting put it pretty clear that Limbaugh's show is part of Trump's campaign?

Doctors are usually loathed to tell a patient like limbog that his drug addiction caused his hearing loss because people like that say, "prove it," and you usually cannot prove it, but only show the correlation.

The worst aspect of implants is the transmitter that has to be stuck to the side of your head, like Frankenstein’s bolt through the neck. Here’s how they work:

EXTERNAL:
- One or more microphones that pick up sound from the environment
- A speech processor which selectively filters sound to prioritize audible speech
- A transmitter that sends power and the processed sound signals across the skin to the internal device by radio frequency transmission

INTERNAL
- A receiver/stimulator, which receives signals from the speech processor and converts them into electric impulses
- An electrode array embedded in the cochlea
- Surgical procedure necessary to install

I’ve suffered major hearing loss in one ear (too much ¡ROCK AND ROLL! when I was younger), but I’m not at the implant stage yet, but I do use a BiCROS system of over-the ear hearing aids; one piece is a mic (for the deaf ear), the other a conventional hearing aid; the mic sends audio signals through a self-contained processor over to the “good” ear, so EVERYTHING is heard through one ear. Amazingly, the brain “understands” the input, and you perceive all sound as being “in the middle” of your noggin, not just a flood of sound into the “good” ear.

Sorry to go into so much detail. Bet you didn’t expect a crash-course on hearing devices.

At one point, Rush was buying over a hundred pills per day. He doctor shopped, going to several different doctors for multiple prescriptions. He was finally arrested in the wee hours buying pills in a Denny's parking lot.

Oddly enough, even though he was doing enough drugs to knock out an elephant, his show did very well. Nobody noticed the guy was so wasted he was lucky to be able to get out of bed.
