I wasn't being funny.
Let's just say from very personal experience this is what I have found. Sure Rehab has helped some, but the for the most part...
If you want some details, let me know....

I love how a blowhard can get you libs so worked up. I also love how a half man half ape can beat your two best candidates. I also love how the half wits of America have relegated your party to second status. I love how conservative MOL posters can so easily manipulate your emotions. I love how you have so little hope. I love this message board. |

Duncan-
Are you calling me a liar about my own skeletons in the closet? How bizzare, especially since you don't know me personally.
While I am not ashamed of my past, I decided against getting too personal on a public board but if you ever want details send me an e-mail.
And it sounds like I struck a nerve on this topic with you. If rehab helped you in anyway, congratulations. But in my experience, the ones quickest to run to rehab were never serious about quitting their crutch in the first place.
Do want to get off booze/drugs? Lock yourself in a room for two weeks and get over it. The only way you are going to kick your habit(s) is to learn to respect your crutch once again. The pain will bring your respect back pretty quick...

Duncan and I had some serious discussion in another thread about addiction. I find your comment about rehab OFFENSIVE and IGNORANT to the fact!
Duncan,

Southerner makes some valid points about Limbaugh. He is a blowhard, and we don't have to let him get to us. I don't understand why Southerner likes to get pleasure from other people's displeasure, but I suppose I never will.
Even Limbaugh has a sense of humor about himself. He laughs at how seriously people take him. Ask why he doesn't run for office, he pointed out he's just an entertainer.
I suspect he doesn't even believe a lot of the stuff he spews.

Tom,
If the other libs on the board were as reasonable and open as you are then I probably wouldn't take such pleasure with their displeasure. It's not like I'm happy they lost their job or their dog died. I simply take pleasure that their political philosophy has been so eroded that all they have left is bi#$ing and moaning. You and I take little humorous shots at each other which I enjoy. You make good valid points about my posting style and content, and I try to jab you a little. However, some of these other libs are a little over the top and these posts about Rush I find amusing. Talk about taking pleasure from a person's pain. Man, this thread thrives on it and Rush isn't even an elected official. In my mind, elected officials leave themselves open to ridicule since they put their hat in the ring. That is why I read this board. I'm pretty sure Bush can stand the heat as can all politicians. But Rush is an entertainer and making millions and these libs on this board act as if Rush has real power. I also can't understand how libs allow folks like me or SLK or Straw get so under their skin. If you truly believe what you say then you wouldn't get so emotional about a subject. As crazy as many of these threads and posts seem, I don't get bent out of shape because I know my side is correct.
And yes, Rush is a blowhard and he knows it. He's laughing all the way to the first tee. I'm sure he believes what he says just like all of us do. And yes, most all of us are blowhards in some sort of fashion. Rush just gets paid big bucks to do it. |

Entertainers also open themselves up to insult. So taking pleasure in Limbaugh's pain is not the same thing as doing it with your fellow participants here on MOL. I don't find it fitting to let loose on Limbaugh totally, because addiction is a disease, and he doesn't have full control over it. Also, I will insult some public figures, but I don't find it in me to do it against Limbaugh. He is a hypocrit, however, for saying all drug users should be locked up. And his prescription fraud has no excuse.

Indeed dave23 thats the problem right there.
I would love to know how anyone can have "pure" addiction experience. There is nothing pure about it.
I sat in a meeting with a guy getting off Heroin who had cut his leg off because it itched so much. Or is that what you mean by "pure", SLK.
Whatever your experience if you are clean and sober then great. To me you post more like you are dry. And I expect you know the difference between the two. |

It probably pays pretty well, and there are a lot of easy jobs out there.
Tom,
I agree about Rush being a public figure and I have no problem with posters going after him. I'm sure it really upsets him. My simple point is I do find it hilarious that a guy like Rush gets so many libs easily emotional. Do you think Franken and his antics get to me? Heck no. He sees a market and is going for it. And if it seems wrong that I take pleasure in other posters pain then you are taking this board way too serious. If libs have enough time to full with this board then life can't be so bad. And if they can't take my laughter at them then they should simply scroll through my posts like I do to a few posters. But we all know self control isn't something associated with the liberal philosophy. If it were they would stay quiet and let Bush self implode. Instead they will do the usual whine and march routine which will only push the half wits in red America to vote Republican. I'm available if the Dems need a strategist. |

It wasn't that many years ago (when our world was very different) that such 'entertainment' as Rush Limbaugh provides was known as hate radio. The sad thing is that it has become mainstream.
Not only does he not believe the lies he spews but he actually makes fun of his audience who generally aren't bright enough to notice.
He's been in place for many years fuelling the hatred in current day politics and one of the key strategists in the brainwashing of the public through the media, which this government have condoned, that was in place going back to the impeachment of Clinton and which has set the stage for the atrocities that are taking place today. The press, media, entertainment (call it what you will) no longer feel the responsibility or need to tell the truth (which is required by the Constitution) and these people have literally have blood on their hands for what has been allowed to happen with regard to the war, torture, outing of CIA agents, the list is endless. Rush Limbaugh is a key player in spewing non-facts and lies with no checks and balances. No sympathy here for his predicament. He probably took drugs to help deal with his conscience. |

Tom,
I admit that was sentence was completely conjecture on my part. I am allowed to state opinions aren't I? I don't expect everyone to believe everything I do.
Elgato,
You really should not take him so seriously. Rush is a radio disc jockey! And he came into success and remains successful to this day because he appeals to an audience that no other outlet up to his show was appealed to. If you fair minded libs hadn't allowed your liberal media outlets to run amok with total bias you probably would still have a firm grip on the media. I think your real anxiety comes from the fact that conservatives started fighting on the liberal level, and in fact, have taken it to another level. Listen, after a long day of being bombarded with conservative BS, lay in bed and watch the Daily Show and Colbert and you'll calm down knowing the libs are at least trying. Maybe I should go off about Stewart's bias like you did with Rush. Then again, I'm too busy laughing at his form of infotainment. Rush and Stewart are laughing at all of us! |

Rush has been around a lot longer than the Daily Show and Colbert. They are also comedians, Rush most definitely is not. I would say that on any of the Sunday morning political shows there's a much more conservative slant - some days they only have on conservative guests and there is absolutely no balance at all. Any 'liberal' media on tv or radio is in response to Rush and Hardball and the likes. What liberal outlets are you talking about prior to the above-mentioned? |

Rush Limbaugh doesn't raise my blood pressure. I listen to him occasionally only to hear what crap he's talking about and whether he can still manage to blame the current US situation on Clinton (he often can - it's quite amazing). I am purely an 'observer' of these things because it fascinates me how propagandized and ill-informed the US population is compared to the rest of the world. Some people I've discussed him with actually think he's a news program. Not even you believe that!
I'm only asking you to name a couple media programs pre-Daily and Colbert. It can't be that hard if there's so many out there. |

Elgato,
There your true liberal colors come through - "ill-informed the US population is compared to the rest of the world". You libs just don't get. Your consistent denigration of the American electorate will only come back to bite your elitist backside. Your elitist snobbery is disgusting and I love how Rush gets to you. And I love how the ill-informed have been sticking it to you and your kind for over 10 years now. When the Repubs maintain control I'll expect your post about how ignorant we are. Or maybe you will make a grand prognostication and profess to leave the country if us conservatives stay in control. Your limousine liberalism is absolutely laughable. If you are so perfect and the country is so ill-informed then why don't you run for office and fix everything. |

Southerner, you claim that liberal elitists "don't get it." It's true that there are many Americans we don't understand, but your persistent disrespect for those with whom you disagree is not the path to reuniting as a country. It's fairer to say we don't understand each other. It takes two to miscommunicate, which is to say that it makes no sense to blame one side alone.
I see your 10:10pm post as the equivalent of liberal elitism, though in a backlashing sort of way.

Tom,
We are not miscommunicating!! I understand your view perfectly and you probably understand mine perfectly. What is wrong with disagreeing? Why do you spend time thinking about uniting? It is never going to happen and I don't think it is a bad thing. Different viewpoints and philosophies are healthy.
Tom, my 10:10 post was in response to Elgato's broad brush claim that Americans are ignorant. I would think that you and I could agree that she is wrong. If the Dems win back Congress in November, are Americans all of a sudden smart? She is absolutely an elitist snob with this mentality. I may be an •••#ole, but I would never call a group of people stupid because of how they vote. As over the top as many of my posts may be I have never attacked anyone or any group for their vote. Sure, I disagree with their viewpoints but I have never said "Reingold, you are a stupid fool for voting for Kerry". I simply say we disagree and I'm glad my guy won, but that is far from calling you and other libs stupid. But you've gotta agree, I've been called every name in the book as has our President. We can both take it and it only makes my laughter louder at election results. |

Tom,
You are correct. I do not respect a lot of people. I may not respect someone but that doesn't mean I will be vulgar towards them (and if you think any of your above quotes is vulgar then you have led a sheltered life). I do not see disrespect as a bad thing. Of course I don't respect your political opinions. How do you respect someone you disagree with? I know you libs don't respect me. That is why, we have two options. We can either take up arms and go to battle or we can use the Democratic process of elections to settle our philosophical disagreements.
Bajou,
Okay. You know how to stop me from laughing at the silly minority party in this country. Ask Al Davis. |

Southerner only resorts to insults when he can't answer the question. I am still waiting to hear an example of the 'liberal media'.
I never said Americans were ignorant. I said ill-informed. This is due to the fact that the media is in it for the money, lack of national newspapers, the isolationism, Rush Limbaugh and his ilk who are a peculiar American phenomenon (he spends a lot of time in London by the way, much as he likes to criticize the rest of the world). |

Duncan-
It is too bad that guy cut his leg off when all he had to do was get over it.
I found that most people are on drugs for the wrong reasons. They are on street drugs instead or prescribed ones or instead of facing up to real issues at hand.
My problem? I was lonely and found a strange (and wrong) route to cure it. It is only whne I cleaned up is when my "loneliness" went away. I hated what I turned into, a selfish person, and that was enough for me to turn a new leaf.
I am not trying to compare addictions and maybe my "rehab is for P*ssies" was harsh. I just been around so many people that went into rehab for the wrong reasons. They went in FOR OTHERS/OTHER REASONS instead of themselves.
You don't need rehab to quit anything when you have your own inner drive.
All it took me was one methadone pill and a desire for a new life.
That is just my opinion.
Peace...
