344. It would take Rush Limbaugh 10,000 years to just get by the restitution step.
He has offended or lied about thousands of people. He would spend all of his time trying to get through the 8th step of recovery, where he had to sincerely apologize to others he harmed. It's been a few years so he has had plenty of time to have worked up to the 8th step. But as you suggested, he isn't even working on the 12 step program, and by not doing so has probably violated the terms of the legal agreement he made to stay out of jail.

The 8th Step: Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all. Since Limbaugh's words of hatred have so polluted the political discourse he should have to apologize to everyone affected by his hate, whether it was directly or indirectly. He should even apologize to everyone in his audience since his lies are harming them by causing them to hate even more. (Even though they are willing participants in the process they are nevertheless witless victims to Limbaugh's vulgar attacks)


I wish you the very best in our quest at sobriety. And I'm proud of you...
