RUSH'S MEDICAL RECORDS SUIT IS LOST!!
JUDGE DECIDES WHICH FILES GIVEN TO DA!!
RUSH BEGINS TO PERSPIRE AND THEN BREAKS OUT IN COORS!!
The affable, effervescent, windbag we know as Rush Limbaugh is facing a crisis of great multitude. His 19 month lawsuit seeking to prevent authorities from viewing his medical files for determining if a felony(ies) had been committed was lost. Now a Judge has sifted through all the papers and decided which will be seen by the prosecutor seeking possible charges of doctor shopping for narcotics, money laundering, possession of narcotics and many others. Rush's lawyers are shouting injustice, injustice, while others are silently hoping Rush has his day in court to determine whether innocent or guilty.
Mr. Limbaugh is best noted for his wicked distortions of facts to present a more affable and personalized point of view-his. Newsworthy items are often chopped up enough to begin seeing the liberal consipiracy in the baking of grandma's cake, probably laden with narcotics, or a poor Christina humanitarian dying in Iraq seeking to bring violence upon herself. His machinations are endless, but the real Rush is much more to fathom.
For all his pseudo-patriotism and blowing the horn, Rush Limbaugh has never served his country in uniform. Like many other hawks, Limbaugh used a medical reason to seek a draft deferment, an anal cyst, which isn't exactly life threatening. More so, it can be cured simply by a physcian lancing and then watching carefully for reinfection. In fact, Rush's facther had the same problem, but served more than honorably in World War II. Tis Limbaugh, however, felt that other people should be in uniform rather than him and received his deferment for a trivial condition while many others served honorably with far more serious conditions.
Rush has often criticized Vietnam Veterans and was particularly vicious a few years ago with comments concerning the homeless. In fact, Rush offered a solution to the whole social dilemma: simply picki them all up and bus them out. Not that he isn't socially conscious, but Rush failed to grasp one-third of those homeless were decorated Vietnam Vets who had a good chance of making it with a little understanding, therapy and kindness. Limbaugh's solution, however, was out of sight, out of mind; give them to someone's else's jurisdiction.
He did take flak for this and sort of recanted in a Rushian way. Controversy isn't new to him as many of us recall his quasi-racist statements concerning black athletes in the NFL which earned him a firing at ESPN. Rush's problem has always been with his words. He simply does not know how to arrange words in a dynamic flow to achieve a goal rather than being brusque and nearly abusive. His ESPN excuse was "they knew what they were getting when they hired me." That's true, but even Beano Cook was demoted for making racial comments on the air. Civility always plays an intricate part in the public communications market and Rush left his with one of his ex-wives.
He controls his stage very carefully like most outspoken pundits do. There was the time, however, when a mischievious Vietnam Vet got through to discuss John Kerry and then after setting Rush up, asked him why he wasn't drafted. Rush hummed, hawwed, blustered, and then blurted out a few fallacious lines about the military not having what he wanted and it was his choice not to serve. Gosh, he sure was in a different Selective Service that myself. It didn't work that way and millions in this nation know it from their own experiences. Finally, Rush hung up on the guy and then ranted and raved about him for the next hour. In fact, it appears Rush didn't even have his first mandated physical at the Armed Forces Entry and Examination Station following high school graduation which is a requirement by law. Rush went to college following graduation, dropped out and was reclassified 1A, eligible for immediate induction, but it wasn't to be. There was a sudden letter authored by his private physican to the Draft Board and Limbaugh was automatically granted the 1Y classification without the benefit of a physical examination by an offical AFEES physician. The 1Y was changed to 4F in December, 1971, when the 1Y classification was abolished. This was a time when the military was taking anybody, but influence, money and silver spooned status kept Rush Limbaugh from being inducted.
What is it about looking at yourself in the mirror that bothers some of these outspoken commentators? O'Reilly getting busted for sexual harassment, but never really owning up to it after paying out something like $14 million to her. Michael Savage getting fired also from MSNBC for blurting out really idiotic and cruel rema ks about AIDS sufferers. Ann Coulter getting canned from National Review, MSNBC and USA Today simply for being unprofessional. Yet to ask each of these, the primary reason was the liberal influence in today's media. Hardly, no one stood at their shoulder and suggested their various acts which resulted in their being noticed and/or apprehension. It's simply a fact that power accumulates with media visibility and with it develops a sense of sanctification; a feeling that they are above it all, even the law, and can do virtually anything and not have to worry about reprecussions.
Many have suffered from this the past few years and felt the stinging heat of light after being revealed. Martha Stewart convicted of lying to federal agents; Jimmy Swaggart committing sin with prostitutes, repenting, and then doing the same again; Jim Baker sodomizing a woman who filed charges eventually bringing down his empire; Richard Nixon-crook; Wilbur Mills; and many more who apparently felt their heightened status prevented any time of "little people" treatment towards them.
Reality is what it is. Diana Ross was busted in Tucson for drunken driving at 4AM. She was driving erratically and had been reported by citizens when she was stopped at a local closed video store seeking to return loaners. Her entire interlude was videotaped and later her attorney spent unlimited court hours trying to acquire that tape from the authorities. Meanwhile, Diana was convicted, but spent her jail time in a posh Connecticut facility where she was allowed to sign in and out. The Tucson authorities since have protested this incarceration and would really like for her to return to this city. She won't.
Bottom line is all should be equal under the law regardless, but we know this isn't so. There are many who doubt Rush Limbaugh or Michael Rove will be indicted, much less endure a court trial. I, for one, hope they both are and the facts brought out in a court of law to burst their little bubbles. It's time we realize the caliber of people many seem to idolize don't really possess strength of character nor another important feature, honor. Rove and Limbaugh has both abused their positions of trust with the American people and need to pay the price. In fact, they need to take several more with them as well, but it won't happen as attorneys are working round the clock to find technicalities. Regardless, they aren't the type of role models children need to emulate much less learn from.
