LIMBAUGH NO HYPOCRITE

As usual, Jesse Jackson has no idea what he is talking about. In his column 
(Oct. 21) on Rush Limbaugh, he makes assumptions that have no basis in 
fact. I have seen several Florida prosecutors interviewed on the subject. 
They have stated that no drugs have been found in Limbaugh's possession; 
without possession, there is little or no chance that any charges will be made.

The left-wing nuts will throw around the idea of Rush being a hypocrite; 
that is also nonsense. He became addicted to pain-killers after 
unsuccessful surgery. Rush has railed against cocaine, heroin and marijuana 
users. These users became addicted by playing around with drugs to get 
high. They did it to themselves. I have no sympathy for them, nor did Rush. 
There is no hypocrisy in that position.
