Hmmm. I am normally against anything that has a shadow of a hint of a shade of an iota of an inkling of a whiff of police powers about it. When I next hear a politician say "tough on crime" and see that they mean all crime, not just crime by lower and middle class people, that could change.
However, for the full force of the law and then some to descend upon a man who has consistently called for more police powers and harsher penalties to be applied to just those practices in which he admits to being engaged, how can that be anything but justice?
Oh, and I used to listen to his show three days a week between All Things Considered and Pacifica. I have determined that Rush Limbaugh is every bit as relevant a political commentator as Cheech and Chong were in their time, which is to say, as a political thinker, he's a fair entertainer.
Edit: Strange, I didn't consciously pick Cheech and Chong for their drug use. Martin and Lewis or Rowan and Martin or even Tiny Tim would have worked as well.
