Seattle's substitute for Limbaugh is defending his drug use
Edited on Thu Oct-02-03 11:27 AM by chascarrillo
No joke! I don't know who it is (tuned in late), but... wow!

He also stated "Do I believe it? Yeah, I do."

EDIT: Sorry for the confusion - it turns out that KVI has a local fill in show that's substituting for Limbaugh. Probably more related to Limbaugh's show moving to another station next week (something that's been in the works for months). Many apologies for getting everyone's blood pressure up. :(

9. Humphries, originally from Reno, Nevada, just moved to ...
Seattle, and has signed to do a show there. He will have his own show, just like he used to have in Reno, which was syndicated. Rusty is a piece of screaming crap, and not very bright. How he managed to get his own show in a major market like Seattle, I'll never know.

What great timing. Maybe they can setup a studio in the rehab center.

5. They can always play 'Rush's Greatest Hits" for the next ten years...
But it would be too good if that asshole were not brought back on the radio...

6. The defense, summarized
Edited on Thu Oct-02-03 11:22 AM by chascarrillo
1) Don't you know anyone who's suffered with pain?

2) If my wife was hurting, and the doctor said "no more pills," then you bet I'd be out on the street corner.

3) And, of course, this is an all out war on conservatism.

8. Then it's true?
I was thinking some kind of ruse, this is heavy stuff! Have they done a drug raid on his Home(s) yet? Sounds like a job for the FBI, transporting illegal drugs across state lines? Or does he only camp out in Florida? Does he need reservations to the Betty Ford center or does he just show up? :bounce:

13. CNN is reporting that Rush is on tape
discussing getting drugs through his housekeeper. The investigators say that they are convinced the voice on the tape is Rush.

The investigators still say Rush is not the target of the two year investigation.

16. It doesn't matter if he's the target or not....
The damage has been done! And I noticed he didn't deny he was a degenerate junkie in his little statement today.

15. The old RW Candard: Conservatives are Rational - Liberals are Emotional
They scream it over and over - never realizing how ridiculous they are.

Poor Right Wingers - they are such VICTIMS.

20. I always like what Jean Godden called KVI radio

(She's a former columnist for the PI & Times, and now city council candidate, for those of you non-Seattlites)

She always refered to them as "KKKVI"
