RUSH LIMBAUGH IS A JUNKIE!!!

Nope never thought I'd write those words!!
According to the New York Daily News the bloated conservacrat has a serious oxycontin jones and has his maid score for him hither and yon.
It just doesn't get any better than this it doesn't!
I mean not for nothing but for how many years did he regularly refer to Bill Clinton as "our pot smoking President?"
And all those nasty cracks about Ted Kennedy's drinking...anyone remember those?
Or his dark insinuations about Hilary Clinton's medicine cabinet??
Lets not even mention his frantic hymns of praise on behalf of hard labor, the lash, the hangman's noose as the solution to ALL life's problems.
Good thing he has moved to Miami, thanks to the "Noelle Bush precedent" he can expect leniency as a well heeled GOP drug offender.
Oh I'm just kvelling about this I am I am I am.
Can we deport Rush....ship his fat ass off to Port Au Prince or something?
It'd be sweet poetic justice the way he's called for the deportation of HIV positive immigrants and the like...see how he likes trying to get high in the slums of La Gonave.

Well what can I say?
Stuff like this can't be made up!
Hey Hermann Goering (Rush's spiritual partner and look-a-like) had a shameful little pill problem, he was addicted to something called paracodeine...nasty little narcotics capsules.
Everyone who mattered knew about Hermann's habit...
The guards at Nuremberg got him off the stuff, shaped him up and made a man out of just in time for the Reich Marshal to commit hari-kiri with some cyanide he had hidden up his ass.
But then back in 1946 we knew how to handle rightical chic junkies.

Geez this really is the conservative crack-up happening right before our eyes isn't it?
One of this blog's most resolute notions is that modern conservatism is a dying creed in this country.
Rush has just made it's anti-drug pro-personal responsibility jeremiads a laughing stock.
Consider the whole matter from a ideological perspective:
Modern conservatism is a unnatural menage a trois between national security hard-liners, free market fanatics and religious hysterics. Each leg of the triad strengthens the other, the fundies sanctify the freemarketeer's money worship, the national security freaks make everyone look broad-minded and patriotic, all covered by a syrupy goo of old time religion.
it's a symbiotic relationship built around mutual advantage.
However:
IF
Your economic policy openly benefits naught but the rich and the few....
And
IF
National Security takes a backseat to juvenile snitchery and Karl Rove's need to terrorize CIA field agents into submission...
And
IF
Your loudest and most obnoxious spokesmen on behalf of harsh measure against social misfits re themselves, pimps, gamblers, and junkies...
Well then my friend you do have a problem and it's a very real philosophical problem that can't be dealt with via clever advertising copy or relentless press spin.

So yeah the affair d' Limbaugh does have serious implications for the GOP and it's conservative super ideology.
And then there is the image of Rush forcing his maid to go out to score for smack at the local Pharmacy...too delicious for words.
So much joy today...all of it nasty, but joy nonetheless.
