Disney to take revenge on Limbaugh tomorrow
Saw bumpers for tomorrow's Good Morning America and World News Tonight, both of which feature stories on whataRush.

Disney owns ABC and ESPN, which took a black eye from the Donovan McNabb and druggie controversies.

Here's hoping they take the gloves off.

5. Here! Here!
McNabb IS overrated and so are most NFL quarterbacks.

Brad Johnson and Brett Farve are the only 2 that would be hard to overrate.

6. McNabb is the entire offense
Edited on Tue Nov-18-03 01:24 AM by _Jumper_
Look at how awful the Eagle's offense was when he was hurt last year.

Do you, like Rush, think he is overrated because of his skin color?

10. I am quite glad they didn't interview Lewis
Detroit is still terrible and the Bengals are 500 after beating an undefeated team.

11. But Rush is saying McNabb is a starter only because he's black
That's basically what he was saying. That the NFL, the media, and even his own team were propping up an average quarterback simply because he was black.

He didn't say that outright, but that's basically what he meant. It was a stupid comment. Particularly because McNabb has been VERY successful, even going to the Pro Bowl 3 times (Voted on by the players).

Rush is a drug addict. And drug addicts tend to say really stupid things.

12. It probably really was a drug-fueled rant...
Edited on Tue Nov-18-03 01:42 AM by Dr Fate
...read my other post #7 about his favorite "fix" -oxycotin-

That narcotic is some VERY HARD, very serious shit. Rush has been getting his off the black market, so I'm sure that is not safe either. No telling what it will make you do...

2. don't expect much from it
They will probably say that everybody listens to his show and how courageous he is to face his problem, blah, blah, blah.

7. the truth about "trailor park smack" (links provided)
http://www.oxycontinaddiction.info/

http://www.oxycontinaddiction.info/injecting-oc.htm

The most widely used diversion technique at the street level is doctor shopping. Individuals who may or may not have a legitimate ailment requiring a doctors prescription for OxyContin visit numerous doctors, sometimes in several states, to acquire large amounts of OxyContin which they abuse or sell to others.

Individuals who abuse OxyContin by injecting the crushed tablets quickly become addicted. Injecting OxyContin requires a preparation regimen similar to that of heroin. This allows the abuser to receive the full effect of the pure Oxycodone almost immediately. This creates an effect similar to illicit opioid narcotics, such has heroin. Such a regimen requires the removal of the tablet coating by either sucking on it or scraping it with the teeth or a razor blade, followed by melting the remainder on a spoon, adding water, and then injecting the solution. Dissolving and injecting the contents of OxyContin can slow down or stop breathing and lead to death. Injecting OxyContin can also kill the tissue around the injection site and trigger heart and lung problems.


Signs of OxyContin addiction may include withdrawal symptoms when the OxyContin is discontinued, requests for OxyContin at frequent intervals around the clock, personality changes

Continued increases in the diversion and abuse of OxyContin are likely. Reliable strength, potential prescription cost coverage, and significant profit potential make OxyContin attractive to both illicit distributors and abusers.

OxyContin addiction is serious and is very difficult to overcome through out-patient or home treatment.
