So why after eight months hasn't the Palm Beach DA indicted, or otherwise put an end to the so-called investigation? Then again, this DA was elected by the same people who voted for Buchanan because they couldn't get the arrows lined up.

I'm really surprised at how anti-Limbaugh you are. I think he's really being given the run-around for a political purpose and that's never a good thing.

He's got a drug problem, he went to rehab, with most celebs that'd be enough. No, something stinks in the prosecutor's office and it's blatent politicizing of an investigation.

It's something we should all be against, whether it's a democrat or a republican being targeted.

NKR -- Not only do I enjoy Limbaugh's program, but my designated role here is to stick up for rich people -- and I agree with OJ. First, 99 out of 100 complaints about invasion of privacy are wrong evil whining. Second, while he shouldn't cop to anything he didn't do, he should make all information available to the DA (which is Raoul's answer: you can't really complain about how long the DA is taking while tying him up in court). Third, in the long run the left will have more trouble with this than the right.

Shouldn't Rush have learned in rehab to drop the victim mentality?

Doesn't sound like rehab was probably all that effective.

If not, shouldn't he listen to old radio clips of himself and re-learn it?

Limbaugh is spending *lots* of money (I'm sure) to affect the jury pool.

And, no, I'm not being negative or sarcastic.

Why does it have to fall to Rush, to remind Liberals of the slippery slope, they're pursuing.
Remember, they may get Rush, yet they destroy the
expansive view of privacy they champion.

Going after Rush by whittling down privacy rights, and then turning right around and championing them for someone else after he's convicted would be no problem for your average liberal nowadays. Just look at the contradictory positions they're taking on our efforts to prevent future terror attacks -- the statements can whiplash you from one extreme to the other in a matter of 24 hours, giving the topic of the day.

That said, Rush's decision to go along with Roy Black's "any port in a storm" use of the privacy defense in this case is an abandonment of his previous stance that there is no right to privacy in the constitution. The fact that he has the ACLU's backing on this should at least be giving him a moment or two of pause during any strategy sessions with his counselor.

It's actually too bad the Left doesn't have any talk radio hosts worth listening to, because someone should be deriding Mr. Limbaugh as fiercely as he'd be pummeling a Democrat making similarly mewling claims.

Howard Stern?

I know I'm just a stupid conservative, but how is it contradictory to hold that there is no "right to privacy" in the Constitution, and to insist that the state adhere to its own laws regarding the privacy of medical records?

Kevin, are you suggesting that anyone who objects to an abuse of the power of the state for political purposes is just a whining victim?

Mr. Bull:

They are if they've used their bully pulpit to lambaste others for similar.

Ever heard of the words doublethink and blackwhite?
