ADDICTION KNOWS NO PARTY LABEL Conservative talk radio personality
Rush Limbaugh's public admission that he is addicted to prescription
painkillers is proof that addiction knows no race, creed, color or
political philosophy.

Just as professional athletes and celebrities have fallen prey to
substance abuse along with the downtrodden and the unemployed,
political figures aren't immune from addiction. While some seek to
milk Limbaugh's fall for political advantage, the sad truth is that
addiction is a disease.

Limbaugh's troubles should prove a cautionary tale. If it can happen
to him, it can happen to anyone. If he can enter treatment and come
out the other side whole, perhaps his best days might be ahead of him
as a spokesman for those who become ensnared in substance abuse.
