Rush saying stem cell research could bring back his hearing
So now he is claiming to be all for it.

1. The true value of a conservative: Selfishness

3. Yep...
The swine Orrin Hatch favors stem cell research for the same reason--it might help someone in HIS family who's got Parkinsons (or something similar).

4. He needs to hope for more than his hearing. His mental faculties
could sure use beefing up. Maybe the part of the brain that controls decency could be helped as well.

And since I'm on the subject, the part of his body that controls mean, fat and ugly...

Nope, not possible

5. there's no bringing back Rush's hearing
That ship has sailed. God rendered final judgment on that 3 or 4 years ago. He took away the one thing Rush loved the most. The sound of his own voice. That is some heavy Karma shit. Let him have hope, I guess.

14. It wasn't karma, it was the massive amounts of hard drugs he took
I think when his karma is finally delivered it'll be much more severe than just hearing loss.

6. He could have prevented it by laying off the hillbilly heroin
That's what likely caused his hearing loss anyway. Self-abuse.

7. Maybe Rush could be a guinea pig in medical stem cell research
...and have anal embrionic stem cells tansplanted into the hearing centers of his brain.

8. he is not claiming to be all for it.
If you listen he is claiming to be all for anything Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi are for. This is a joke, not a statement that he is for anything.

10. The only reason he has trouble hearing...
...is because he has his head shoved so far up his own ass.

21. Rush had a cochlear implant in one ear.
The implant replaced the works in that ear and there's no turning back. Possibly there'll be a cure for the other ear.
