15. I have sympathy for the limbaugh on a personal level
BUt on every other level this can be considered nothing more than poetic justice. This man has consistently praised the war on drugs and the increase in prison terms for drug-related crimes including possession. He has attacked those who have drug problems and he has shown zero sympathy to those who attempt to seek treatment. Any time someone even mentions the concept of treatment over incarceration he he has immediately been on the side of locking people up over an ILLNESS.

While I sympathize with him for the pain that his addiction is undoubtedly causing him, I have no sympathy for the destruction of his career because he has done nothing but foster an attitude of "me first" in this country and pushed an agenda that debases our society as a whole.

I don't revel in his addiction, I revel in the destruction of his credibility.
