Rumor-22

Over in the Eschaton haloscan comments-warp, Boilerman10 passes along a very interesting rumor involving Rush Limbaugh. Note the italics. It's just a rumor. But hey, as we were recently reminded, Watergate was once just a rumor.

It seems that Lumpy may owe some money to a few very unsavory characters, if you know what I'm sayin'. And it's not as if he has no means to satisfy his debt to these folks.

He can't pay them off without the transaction confirming his drug trafficking. The authorities have been paying rather close attention to his spending habits, I suppose, so a payoff would likely be noticed and somehow entered as evidence. Poor boy.

Let us all express sorrow for his tragic situation. It could happen to any of us, right?

No. Not right.

Most of us are too busy earning an honest living to become addicted to illicit narcotics while bloviating about sending all junkies to prison on nationally-syndicated radio.

I am looking forward to the release of the pertinent aspects of Rush's medical records. The health-care privacy laws will ensure that his draft-dodging butt-pimple problems remain removed from open discussion.
