The only difference between him and your average coke-head is that Limbaugh has access to a doctor who can prescribe it to him even when the doctor may be aware he's abusing it. I am making that accusation based on working for a major prescription drug benefit provider, and i know what the reality of drug abuse is in America.

Last i heard he said anyone who breaks the law(refering to drug addicts) should be sent to the big house. I am sitting in my flame proof buncker, so don't even bother. by the way, perl stinks.

SHouldn't he be thankful to all the hippies, gays, and "find-yourself-don't-give-a-shit-about old-family-values" treehuggers that a divorce is now socially acceptable?

Ah, of course, every human being is exactly the same, except you, right? No? This next bit isn't directed just at you: Who is Limbaugh anyway? From the frequency he gets mentioned here he sounds like a politician so if so how about we tear apart his politicial views and leave his private life private. Hold the same standards to yourself or shut the fuck up.

That is becuase his political views are intricately tied to things that would be considered personal. If he hadn't had such a tatared marriage record he would probably be advocating making divorces illegal. That is the type of person he is, that is why it's relevant to mention his private life when tearing down his political views.I could have easily talked about him being bald and fat, but i didn't.

OK, I meant the allegations of doctor shopping. I should not have said drug abuse allegations.

Be careful about the above, it isn't false, but it is taken out of context. Without that context it is easy to to see flamebait works (feminazi in particular) and not knowing how he uses it think things are much worse than they are. He is an interesting charicter. Entertaining and all that. There are few places in the US (world really as there is a shortwave broadcast too) where you can't listen to him for 3 hours a day. Spend a few weeks listening to him and you will know what he says. I think you will have a hard time finding a small town without some old man who isn't a lot like him overall. Minor differences of course in the details. He however is an excellent radio host. I'll let you decide where you stand on his politics. Its a sad situation when you have two people who agree 100% on politics.

The context is a few (about 5 total) women who want to see as many abortions happen as they can. Not just allow them, but encourage them. If you can't see how anyone opposed to abortion would see that as equale to the Nazi's killing of the jews you need to open your mind.

here's el Rushbo in his own words:
I prefer to call the most obnoxious feminists what they really are: feminazis. The term describes any female who is intolerant of any point of view that challenges militant feminism. I often use it to describe women who are obsessed with perpetuating a modern-day holocaust: abortion. A feminazi is a woman to whom the most important thing in life is seeing to it that as many abortions as possible are performed. Their unspoken reasoning is quite simple. Abortion is the single greatest avenue for militant women to exercise their quest for power and advance their belief that men aren’t necessary. Nothing matter but me, says the feminazi; the is an unviable tissue mass. Feminazis have adopted abortion as a kind of sacrament for their religion/politics of alienation and bitterness. --The Way Things Ought To Be, p.192-93
(my emphasis) first of all, he says he uses it to describe militant feminists. then he adds the definition you like. so, no it isn't limited to "less than 5 women". second, about this "as many abortions as possible" charge. does he offer any proof for this nonsensical claim ? real proof, not based on an out-of-context quote from someone else ? and finally: no, Nazism has nothing to do with abortions. it's a weak and transparent attempt to harness the emotional impact of the word "Nazi" for his own devices. he's a demagogue.

You know, my bulls*** detector goes off full blast the minute a man tries to apply to women logic that works when you're dealing with men. His line of thinking goes like this: "If I were female, I would feel subservient to men, and abortion seems like a good way to alleviate that feeling." Of course this stems from the fact that as a man he believes that women are beneath him. This may also hint at the explanation for his trio of divorces...
