Explain to us Limbaugh's zero-tolerance policies on drug users
Users/pushers of illegal drugs, my dear.

Please, supply us the links to Rush claiming to look down on people with addictions to prescription painkillers - I dare you.

Humor is only funny...if the humor pokes fun at conservatives, right?

Lets just pray that Ted Kennedy's cancer overtakes his entire body and he suffers a slow death, lets hope that Janet Napolitano catches swine flu and dies a slow death as a result...HAHAHAHAHAHAHA JUST A JOKE
Wait!! Don't you remember the lefties going absolutely bonkers when it was determined obama had contact with a man that died of symptoms similar to swine flu? Oh! Any hint of wishing him ill sent them into a frenzy.

I guess that is fair game now, right? Too bad he didn't contract the virus - would that be OK with you guys now - I mean, it's just a joke, right?

There's a convenient distinction............fact is, Rush has abused drugs in an illegal manner, and that is just as bad as any of the users/pushers he so easily rants against.

I don't know why you injected race into the mix. I suspect, but I don't know. There's only one explanation for it in this context, that I can think of. Perhaps you can give a reason that doesn't make you a racist?

"Uppity" means acting above your social class. Here we have one entertainer making a joke about another entertainer. They're equals in that realm. So I wonder what it is that puts Sykes in a lower social class than Limbaugh?

She's a woman? She's gay? She's black?

Take your pick, OP - what kind of bigotry were you calling out when you used the term "uppity?"

Three cheers for death jokes. I guess they are fair game if it is "just in the name of comedy" now.

That's usually true, only because there are no good conservative comedians, and because conservatives are often dour, humorless people of low creativity and little understanding of humor.

The choice of "uppity" was indeed interesting.

Maybe it was a code for "how dare she speak out against the leader of the GOP"
