1. Last I heard, his lawwyers were still fighting the release of his

medical records. I think all these arguments have to be settled before the trial.

7. He actually used the ACLU to prevent his med records from release.

2. Shouldn't he be 'up the river' by now? He advocates that for others,

why not him?

11. Now, wait just a minute

Rush firmly believes in a different set of standards for extremely rich people, and working class individuals. He's being very consistent.

3. He just has to drag it out for another year

After the 2006 Florida governor's race, Jeb can pardon him (he is term limited out).

4. Pardoning Rush may prove to be "unhealthy" for Jeb.

If he has any further political ambitions, that is. It would show him as soft on drugs and crime.

9. They should not defend people who would destroy the ACLU

That would be like them defending O'Reilly. Yes, conservatives have rights too, but let someone else step up to the plate to defend a man who, if he had his druthers, would criminalize the ACLU and put all of their members in jail.
