Limbaugh Detained At Airport

(CBS4 News) WEST PALM BEACH Sources have confirmed to CBS4 News that conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh has been detained at Palm Beach International Airport for the possible possession of illegal prescription drugs Monday evening.

Limbaugh was returning on a flight from the Dominican Republic when officials found the drugs, among them Viagra.

Limbaugh entered a plea deal back in April in a previous case where his charge of fraud to conceal information to obtain prescriptions was dropped under the condition he continue undergoing treatment for addiction.

Limbaugh had admitted to being addicted to pain killers on his radio program and had entered a rehabilitation program prior to that arrest.

1. My, my, my. n/t

[rocktivity]

84. My, my, my, once bitten, twice shy, babe.

According to post-Mott The Hoople Ian Hunter. At least, Rush is SUPPOSED to be twice shy.

Wasn't he just complaining about a Dem Congressman skating on a DUI charge?

:headbang:
rocknation

[wakeme2008]

2. Who would have thought Rushie couldn't get it UP

:rofl: :rofl:

The real question is were there any "pain killers"!!!!!!!

[MADem]

12. What was he doing in the Dominican Republic with it???

Exploiting poor women, perhaps??

Why do I think that fits his sleazy profile?

[wakeme2008]

18. LOL I will not go into the color of the poor women in DR

or his listeners heads would pop......

[tblue37]

19. Isn't he gay? (eom)

[MADem]

37. Well, then he was exploiting some poor young man, then NT

[serryjw]

81. Yeh....But

It's Clinton's fault...He drove him to it! A life in the closet with his painkillers.

[cantstandbush]

141. Dominican Republic is known as a playland for gay men.

Not to mention access to drugs. My understanding is that Rush was in possession of prescription drugs in someone else's name.

[elgati]

344. yeah, but also for cheap whoring, so it could be anything lascivious

[Divine Discontent]

380. but.. but...

an upstanding republican doesn't do those things...


was he caught with a fake moustache also??????????? OH WAIT, he went right to his VIP room and they brought the 13 yr olds to him there, duh, silly me

[jbnow]

49. Since he was

returning on a flight from the Dominican Republic with the drugs, perhaps it was easier for him to get them there. He might be paranoid dealers here would rat him out.

Kind of sad they noted the Viagra. He could have gotten that legally. If it was most other people I'd feel bad for him.

[DoYouEverWonder]

59. I guess DR is closer then Canada

from FL?

[MADem]

71. The viagra, according to the CBS report, was in HIS doctor's name!!!

Apparently he's got himself a doc who will deal for him....

[johnlal]

314. Was this a US Doctor or a Domenican Doctor?

I wonder if he has a supplier down there?

[MADem]

361. They said there were TWO doctors on the prescription

Which leads me to wonder, was there more than one bottle?

[KurtNYC]

387. That would seem illegal on its face

Can a doctor prescribe narcotics to HIMSELF? Even if he can, can he then give them to someone else< outside of pharmaceutical controls? The law as I read it says that narcotics have to be 1) prescribed by a licensed doctor 2) prescribed for a specific patient and 3) kept in the same container they were dispensed in which shows both #1 & #2.

I hope they bust his doctor also.

[Jawja]

329. I am now under the impression

that Mr. Limbaugh has access to an unlimited supply of any prescription drug that he so chooses; and as long as he is in Jeb Bush's Florida, he will get away with it.

That's a pretty good trade off to be the chief propagandist for the * crime syndicate, I think.

[Maraya1969]

152. Yea what a jerk with the Viagra unless that is prohibited in his probation

too. I don't see why it should be.

[w4rma]

255. It's folks like him that helped make the law like that. He broke the law,

he should do the time.

[dicknbush]

101. Little Boys perhaps????

Well you never know...! It's possible.

[smtpgirl]

Very possible, maybe someone will address this

in yet another arraingment hearing??

Hopefully this gas bag will not be on the air anymore, but I have wishful thinking.

[XanaDUer]

288. My first thought

exactly-is he on some type of slimy "sex holiday"?

[Nimrod2005]

291. Exploiting poor women and children...The Dominican Republic sex trips

and tourism are well known to men from around the world.

[rhino47]

321. with a woman? I always thought rush was gay.

wasn`t there a former college roomie that collaborated that?

[MADem]

362. I remember hearing he got busted in a bathroom, but don't know if it is

true or not.

[AlamoDemoc]

23. hahahahahahahaha....I am laughing my head off

:rofl: I can use Daryn Kagan's picture to top it off

[kskiska]

90. Looks like Daryn cut out just in the nick of time

Imagine the embarrassment!

[AlamoDemoc]

105. LOL...indeed...imagine CNN staffer's water-cooler chat tomorrow

[MADem]

112. She probably didn't want to share her prescriptions with him anymore

Hey, that shit's addictive!

[maxrandb]

301. My Gawd!!! She looks like she used to be a man!!

I guess I can now understand Rush's attraction to her.

I'm popping some fucking champagne!! Could not have happened to a better guy!

[acmejack]

31. Viagra is what he lives on.

After all, he is just a hard on with ears. Take it away and he will merely be Rush Limpbaugh.

[Wise Doubter]

307. a hard on with ears? I always just thought he was....

a big dick !

[ShortnFiery]

163. "The real question is were there any "pain killers"!!!!!!!"

If the answer is YES, Rush should get jail time, i.e., he breeched his legal agreement to NOT acquire Pain Killers in any way, shape or form. :woohoo:

[Maraya1969]

192. That is my prayer also!!!!!

[gogo69]

232. jail time possibly - but not necessarily

I believe I heard he got Adjournment in Contemplation of Dismissal (ACOD) on his original charges. Basically, if he doesn't "stay out of trouble" he will have to face the original charges. Typically, the "stay out of trouble" will include any arrests and I doubt it has to specifically be pain-killers.

He is still not automatically guilty of the original charges. He can still put on a defence or whatever.

No matter what, this can't be good for the bum. I'm sure the corporate media will be all over it - a full two-second clip between their mindless drivel.

[Wise Doubter]

306. Was it really Viagra in the bottle ??!!

one of the oldest High School tricks in the world.


Remember putting beer(or wine, Michael) in a soda can at the varsity football game ??

[MADem]

3. NO, NO, NO!!!!!!!!!!! You mean there IS a GOD?????????

Off to lockup with Pigboy, then!!!!!!!!!!

[RamboLiberal]

63. My sentiments exactly - there may be a God

please let him get sent off to prison!

[ShortnFiery]

170. At least this latest news SHOULD shoot his credibility all to hell ...

even with the Right Wing Kool-Aid drinkers? It should! :shrug:

I knew from my past professional and personal experiences with addiction, NO body goes from Oxycotin Toxic to SOBER in a 30 day treatment regimen.

Rush, you're probably NOT working your program. Are ya? ;)

[Catch22Dem]

64. No

If there was a god, he never would have become famous.

[benburch]

Hahahahahahahahaha!

Schadefreunde is so much fun!

[still_one]

4. Just as I thought, a dick drug for a dick

[IndianaGreen]

5. Parole violation!

Off to the slammer!

[DoYouEverWonder]

65. Too bad West Palm Beach

isn't a zero tolerance county.

[Fluffdaddy]

6. Throw away the key

[LeftyMom]

7. So he's gonna get his parole violated, right?

Joe Average would be waiting for his turn with the phone and trying to decide whether to ring his wife or his lawyer right now.

[wakeme2008]

13. I think Jebbie just signed a bill this term or last the would get the Judg

no choice about that. ....

[Maraya1969]

157. No choice he must get probation or no choice he must go to jail?

I thought he was already on probation.

[tenshi816]

274. Hmm...according to the big man himself,

he was "completely exonerated" on the former charge, which would mean no probation. Of course, anyone who isn't a dittohead knows that Rush is a lying sack of crap.

It's going to be fun watching this play out and listening to him trying to spin this to portray himself as innocent once more.

:rofl:

[pokercat999]

292. His Doctor WAS on the plane but bailed out over

Miami. He forgot his Viagra, hence the confusion. All is well here, nothing to see, go back to sleep America.

The 40% er's will blame it on the liberal cops (customs agents), after all they are FEDERAL EMPLOYEES!

:sarcasm:

[hang a left]

258. Not to mention you are not allowed to leave the country

when you are on formal probation.

[BrightKnight]

366. It's a violation regardless of subsequent criminal proceedings

He will have to report it to his supervising officer.

[Mnemosyne]

8. .

:rofl:

:rofl:

:rofl:

[grytpype]

9. Maybe they'll finally lock his fat fascist drug-addict ass up.

Finally.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

10. Viagra!!!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Can't manage it on your own, huh, Rush? All that Oxycontin can tend to take the lead out of the ol' pencil, I guess. Though the idea of Rush using Viagra to do that thing that one uses Viagra for, is more like :puke:

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[TrogL]

50. Is he married?

If so, is he intending to procreate? At his age? If not, he shouldn't be using it. Sex is only for procreation. The Bible says so.

If he's NOT married, why does he need Viagra?

[Fluffdaddy]

58. No longer with his 3rd wife

[Arugula Latte]

83. Wow, she must have been crazy to not hold on to a gem like him!

Ugly, mean, stupid, drug-addled, fascistic, impotent -- What's not to like? :rofl:

[Change has come]

239. may I add. . .

Pasty, hypocritical and in desperate need of a man bra. Oink Oink Oink

[Nothing Without Hope]

187. Maybe the Viagra is to stiffen a back with no spine?

Otherwise, thinking of Rush Limbaugh and the usual purpose of Viagra is EWWWWWWWW!!!! And the second thought is, what poor person did he abuse?

[Virginian]

198. If he's NOT married, why does he need Viagra?

Fundie Pharmacists don't want to give Birth Control pills to MARRIED women, but, they think it is alright for an unmarried man to get Viagra?

Married woman? Adultry!
Single woman? Fornication!
Adult man? Gay!
teen or younger? pervert, preditor, sex offender.

Wake up Fundies, the man intends to deliberately break one of Gods laws. Boycott Rush. Write to his stations about what an evil man he is!

[Mad_Dem_X]

309. Good question!

Why would he need Viagra if he's not married??????

[mistertrickster]

311. That's a damn good point. Here's somebody who's all on-board

abstinance FOR OTHERS.

So typical.

[The Brethren]

334. my thoughts exactly

I was also thinking along the lines of how many people would recognize his pumpkin sized face outside of the states -- say in the Dominican Republic? So he wouldn't have to worry about his love-for-hire date "kissing and telling." ::bad visual!!::

Btw, I'd peg him more as the predator type. Wonder what the laws of consent are in the Dominican Republic?

[Wise Doubter]

310. re: If he's NOT married, why does he need Viagra?

As mentioned in a post above, the Dominican republic in known as a gay playland.


Who wants to go to the candy store with a toothache ?? :rofl:

[greenbriar]

11. yank his show!!! put him in jail. If it were Howard Stern he would be go

lock him up, put him in a cell with a Hells angel Dem named tiny and throw away the key

[IndianaGreen]

14. Keith Olbermann is going to talk about it on his show tonight!

He just gave the heads up!

[marmar]

15. Cosmic karma....

Maybe he can give the viagra to his new friend Spike in the holding cell.

[Sherman A1]

20. karma

kickback.... doesn't that just get `cha......

[hollowdweller]

96. Karma for all the bad things he said about poor Jerry (Garcia)

Maybe he understands how it is now. I'd like to hear someone ask him if he'd like to reconsider his statements about him.

[Lochloosa]

155. A kick just for you and Jerry.....N/T NEEDED

[WindRavenX]

16. karma, baby

And this time, I hope he goes to jail.

Vile, vile hateful pig.

[Terran1212]

17. It's pathetic to attack him on this

I don't do character assasination or beat people when they are down. He has his problems and I hope he fixes them.

I will however say he's a psychotic with a horrible temper who, along with O'Reilly, Boortz, Hannity, Coulter, and the other people who have testosterone as the only hormone in their bodies, should quit their jobs immediately.

[Jacobin]

25. I exempt hypocrites who advocate jail for

the same crimes they themselves commit from my sympathy.

[darkstar]

48. Well said

and hi back atcha from earlier today.

Everything's going well, I hope.

Take care. Maybe talk soon.

:hi:

[Sherman A1]

26. Granted

Yes, he has a problem and it starts with hypocrisy, this is just the big "in the news" indicator of it.

[speedoo]

27. It's never pathetic to attack a hypocrite.

It's entirely proper, actually.

Attacking any of these thugs, for anything that's factual, is not only appropriate, it's necessary.

(edit-typo)

[LostinVA]

52. Exactly -- which is why I'm for outing conservative elected officials

That vote against gay rights. They're sickening.

I'm gay, btw, so I have an especial vested interest in this.

Hypocrisy will get ya almost every time...

[goclark]

137. May he rot in hell with pills sprinkled all over his fat body LOL

I'm getting a photo shop visual! :rofl:

[Joanne98]

375. I'm for outing them too. Especially Gov. Rick Perry of Texas....

[greenbriar]

30. pathetic my ass . That bloviating pig leaves nothing off limits and he

claims he is from God and the best



I say laugh and then demand jail!!!

[Rufus T. Firefly]

33. Nope.

I hope he gets help - the same help he has already gotten. But not preferential treatment. He's been to rehab, he got a second chance under the law, and now he's blown it within a couple of months.

You or I wouldn't have gotten that kind of a deal without actually being indicted, and he deserves to be imprisoned if he did it again.

Once the laws are changed so that regular Americans aren't imprisoned for what he has done, then I will withhold commenting on his breaking of the law.

[MadMaddie]

35. If he didn't get on his radio show and

blame poor people, black people and anyone else downtrodden that happened to have a drug problem for their addictions I might agree with you. He spouted that they should be thrown in jail..and the key thrown away...


What comes around goes around...

[Terran1212]

39. maybe he'll learn

Probably not, but continuing to do what we know is wrong (what HE does) will not do it.

[fishwax]

36. i think his hypocrisy makes him a target

[Quantess]

275. people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. _EOM

[kenny blankenship]

41. I suspect a severe LACK of testosterone in their bodies

compensated for by loutish yelling.

[MADem]

44. It is NOT!!! It's called NOTING his HYPOCRISY....sheesh

Have you bothered to read his statements on how drug users (everyone but him, of course) should be treated? Lock em up, toss the key.

He's a Do-as-I-say asswipe, and he's getting what is quaintly called his comeuppance. I hope they haul his ass to the slammer and make him do the rest of his eighteen months behind bars, like they would for some poor bastard from the po' side o' town.

[PurpleChez]

177. Rock on!!!!

Even before BushCo and all of its attendant hypocrisies...at least as far back as Ollie North and Iran Contra...conservatives have been getting away with a grotesque hypocrisy, in that they insist that everybody else follow the ryle of law without question, while reserving for themselves the absolute right to disregard any law they disagree with.

[IndianaGreen]

Rush violated the terms of his probation

He should be locked up just as any of us would be were we to do the same!

[zonmoy]

287. sure think that some hard prison labor would do him a world of good.

[Catch22Dem]

69. Fuck him

and fuck that. I'd kick him if he were dead! He's a piece of shit who has dished it out to people who were unable to respond for YEARS. He called the 12 year old first daughter a DOG on his show. Fuck him. I'll kick his fucking ass all the way to the sewer.

[jefferson_dem]

86. DUDE! Rock on, Brother!

:yourock:

[Catch22Dem]

88. HEHE

Sudden outbursts...gotta watch those. ;)

[LincolnMcGrath]

107. Damn Right! I'll offer him a plea deal.

5 years hard time.

Or

1 hr alone with me.

[rateyes]

196. "Hard" time?

Story about Viagra. Sorry, couldn't resist. :rofl:

[The Brethren]

331. LOL

I say give him one hour alone with you!

[Rufus T. Firefly]

144. Like what Lionel on WOR said about Ann Coulter

Before defending her right to say whatever she wants, he said:

If she were lying in the street, clutching her chest, and said to me, "Take my cell phone. I dialed 9-1-1...please press 'Send,'" I'd take the phone and throw it as far as I could.

www.lionelonline.com has links to podcasts. My favorite radio show apart from the ones on Air America.

[Human Torch]

149. Let's also remember one big reason why Al Franken hates his fat ass...

...when Jerry Garcia died in rehab, Limbaugh said (essentially) that he was a drug addict who got what he had coming to him.

Al, as we all know, is a consummate Deadhead.

But beyond that, Garcia was gifted, and he was sad. On one hand you had a visionary artist and on the other you had a kid in a candy store who didn't know when to stop. And when he did decide to stop, it was too late...the damage had been done. Limbaugh chose to piss on the corpse of a man who only wanted to be well again.

I hope that visions of Jerry Garcia haunt Rush Limbaugh, and that he meets his maker while sitting on the toilet and straining at a stool, just like that other legendary, visionary, tragically addict rock star.



:toast:

[YOY]

283. Don't really know what Al thinks abour Cobain, but I'll

never forget just what Rush said about Kurt when he killed himself:

"Kurt Cobain was, ladies and gentleman, was a worthless shred of human debris."

Asshole...

[lwin]

265. That was right on point...

Great post...:rofl:

[maxrandb]

304. Like I've said a thousand times

If Rush Limbaugh were on fire, I wouldn't even piss on him.

[B3Nut]

320. Dayum!

Tell us how ya really feel! :D :D :D :D

Helluva rant, man! You deserve a beer!

Todd in Beerbratistan :beer:

[Catch22Dem]

391. I'll take that beer!

Thanks, man!

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

75. Except he was railing about Kennedy a few weeks back

[KyndCulture]

91. Glad you are so much better than all of us.

Hypocrites don't get sympathy. He'd advocate to his dying day that they lock you up in prison and throw away the key for what he just did.

[Bushwick Bill]

99. Disagree.

When he first got investigated/nailed for this stuff, I honestly felt bad for the guy and didn't enjoy piling on him because I think we all know people who have substance abuse problems. But, I thought it would help him change his ways a little and he would come back a little more compassionate. Instead, he has been the same old prick. Fuck him. If he can't get over his problems, he should be treated exactly the way he would have others treated.

[smtpgirl]

Ah, but there lies a problem within a problem

He was supposed to be getting treatment, not scuttling drugs across the border.

Yep, I am a hard ass. Was arrested twice and convicted once of a DUI.

This bastard thinks that he is Rush Limbaugh, just like Leona Helmsley, "we are just little people, we deserve the hardset conviction ever", but when it comes to the "big" people, ok judge, sir, I will fulfill the requirements of my probation.

Put that lame ass in JAIL, and wait for an arraignment hearing!!!!

Sorry, what comes around, goes around!!!!!!!!!!!!

[951-Riverside]

143. Wish we could trade him for Chris Farley

[rpannier]

123. I disagree

This is a man who berates others for their 'moral failures'

He deserves it. I hope he gets better, but he deserves it.

[Bluzmann57]

131. No it's not pathetic to attack him on this

This motherfucker has been able to make more money than most of us will ever see in our lives by ripping on druggies and others who may not be all bad. He should be in prison after this, but I think that he will never see the inside of a jail cell nor will he get taken off the air, which I believe would almost kill him.

[ShortnFiery]

174. "He has his problems and I hope he fixes them."

I second that sentiment BUT "off of the airwaves." This man is morally depraved ... even more so than "The Bookie of Virtue" Bill Bennett. Betcha money Rush's ass will land on FOX. The horror of actually having to look at that ... oh please put him in re-hab behind lock-up for say 6 months! :P

[Skittles]

189. F*** HIM

I normally symapthize greatly with such things but this bastard said drug users should be locked up

[Change has come]

243. Have you ever heard this Pigs attacks?

He has damaged this country to the point it's unrecognizable and has earned every derisive comment on this board.

[katinmn]

381. He's the guy who thinks raping a prioner with a broomstick is "hazing"

He's assinated his own character.

He's also an arrogant ass who keeps getting away with stuff because he loves the Bushies. I hope he goes to jail and suffers horrible withdrawal.

[TacticalPeek]

21. Where are mandatory minimums when you need them?

BWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

:evilgrin:

[Dr Fate]

22. "possible possession?" He was holding or he was not. n/t

n/t

[MADem]

29. In HIS bag, but the prescription on the bottle was made out to his DOCTOR!

Uh, oh!!!!!!

[Dr Fate]

46. That clears it up- he was indeed "holding" the "stash"

Note that my quotes indicate terms thay may only be known to those with connections to the sorid, drug under-world. You know, like Rush. ;)

[hollowdweller]

98. Was it "Dr Nick" ???

[rpannier]

241. Hi everybody!!!!!!

Mr. Limbaugh, you are obviously suffering from an acute case of addictive-hypochondria and you will need lots of viagra and pain killers to fix this very serious problem.

[Human Torch]

24. The freeps don't know about it yet...or they don't want to discuss it.

I sense they'll scream "He was set up" or talk about Clinton's BJ...anything other than the fact that the Pillsbury PillBoy was caught red-handed again.

:evilgrin:

[kskiska]

47. They know now!!

He was busted for having 'illegal' perscription drugs, that is he didn't have a prescription for what he was carrying.

32. Jail him

I agree with IndianaGreen on this one, this is either a parole violation or a plea deal violation. I'm sure that under the conditions of his "plea deal" he was supposed to stay clean. He didn't so he should go to trial and then to jail.

Sonia

[liberalnurse]

77. I think it could fall under Probation

violation instead of Parole. Parole is issues to those who have served prison time and are conditionally released by the Parole Board....for example, one can be eligible for parole after serving an ordered minimum sentence period within closed parameters as issued by the Judge.... ie....5-10 years....eligible for parole in 5 years....

Limbaugh SHOULD of gone to prison but was given a "sweet deal"....which now he has violated.....:woohoo:

51. Since his connections here in the States are "compromised,"

I'm given to wonder if he was importing these, trying to get around the sensible limits/punishments imposed upon him here. People do it (elsewhere) with Cuban cigars and such, right?
What a damned hypocrite. I'm glad he's getting caught flaunting the laws...it shows what a liar and false person he is. Morally, he's always been living way beyond his means...time now to walk the walk.

"As part of this agreement, Mr. Limbaugh also has agreed to make a $30,000 payment to the State of Florida to defray the public cost of the investigation. The agreement also provides that he must refrain from violating the law during this 18 months, must pay $30 per month for the cost of "supervision" and comply with other similar provisions of the agreement.

More terms of the deal:

The formal agreement between Mr. Limbaugh and the State Attorney will be filed with the Court on Monday. The terms of the agreement are substantively as follows:

* Mr. Limbaugh will continue in treatment with the doctor he has seen for
the past two and one half years.

* After Mr. Limbaugh completes an additional 18 months of treatment, the
State Attorney has agreed to drop the charge.
* Mr. Limbaugh has agreed to make a $30,000 payment to the State of
Florida to defray the public cost of the investigation.

Rush Limbaugh's Attorney Roy Black Responds to Media Inquiries
Mon June 26 2006 21:21:11 ET

Miami, FL -- June 26, 2006 -- Roy Black, Rush Limbaugh's attorney, issued the following statement today in response to several inquiries by the media:

While going through routine Customs inspection of luggage at Palm Beach International Airport upon his return from an international trip, Rush Limbaugh was detained by customs agents after they noticed a non-narcotic prescription drug, which had been prescribed by Mr. Limbaugh's treating physician but labeled as being issued to the physician rather than Mr. Limbaugh for privacy purposes. After a brief interview, Mr. Limbaugh was permitted to continue on his journey.

146. Roy Black will be buying Tahiti oceanfront after draining this scumbag's $

[daleo]

167. Wouldn't that be against the law (for both parties)?

Knowingly misrepresenting the prescription information on a drug bottle?

[knitter4democracy]

212. Yes, it is. That's what Hubby says.

He's an internist, and he thinks the doctor will drag Rush down with him (as he's sure to at least be censured).

The whole privacy argument is crap--HIPPA protects all that (except from Pharma, as they get prescribing records to do marketing studies). If he didn't want a soul to know his info, they wouldn't.

[daleo]

227. Thanks for the interpretation.

It makes sense to me.

103. OMG

:rofl:
:toast:

[msanthrope]

104. This deserves a reprise of James Wolcott's

immortal blogpost regarding Limbaugh's fixation with BJs and his girlfriend, Daryn Kagan.

"On Some Sad Laps, No Heads Bob"
http://jameswolcott.com/archives/2005/04/on_some_sad_lap.php

[lolly]

From Wolcott:

If the plentitude of blowjobs is part of the Clinton legacy, millions owe the former president a debt of gratitude and an annual pilgrimage to the Clinton Memorial Library in Arkansas.

:rofl:

No wonder wingnuts hate him--they feel left out of all the fun Clinton started!

[Nothing Without Hope]

206. OMG!!! HILARIOUS!!!

continuing to quote Wolcott's 2005 piece:

Yet, like so many products and pleasures, blowjobs aren't evenly distributed in society. It's a renewable natural resource not everyone gets to enjoy, and I was struck by the vehement tone of Limbaugh's tirade. He sounded bitter. I've seen this rancor inflict so many middle-aged men. Reading about all the oral sex young people are presumably having, they feel envious and resentful. No classmates were treating them to afterschool blowjobs in high school! Nor were hot teachers like that one in Florida seducing them in parked cars. It doesn't seem fair. It doesn't seem just. We're living in the Golden Age of BJs, and men in Rush's recumbent position feel barred from Eden, forced to imagine the action from their recliners as they stare sullenly at their plasma screens. It's probably how many adults felt during the free-love Sixties as the lid came off the nation's libido.

Clearly no small part of the undying enmity conservatives like Rush (and many liberal men too) have for Bill Clinton was that he was their age (maybe even older) and yet was able to participate in the exciting blowjob youth movement courtesy of Monica Lewinsky's bright red mouth. How this made them seethe, and the fact they still mention it at the slightest farfetched opportunity shows that they seethe still.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[mucifer]

109. Any other sources for the story?

Seems odd to me. Yes, I'd love this to be true. But, I don't see it anywhere else. I think some fun loving person at cbs 4 might be sabotouging the website.

Among his stash of all things was Viagra.

Will he serve out his time, or be an OJ???

[journalist3072]

114. Doesn't this mean he violated the terms of his agreement then

I thought they said he had to get in a program and stay clean for 18 months, in order for the other charge to be dismissed against him?

[jmowreader]

116. If it's true, they almost HAVE to put him in prison

I kinda figure his plea agreement says "you will not violate any laws."

[MADem]

125. If there's just Viagra, he can probably skate, BUT, the way the thing

was written up, it sounds as though there were other pills in the bottle BESIDES Viagra. And THAT's where the problem will really come in for him. What pills were they???? What were they for?

If his doctor's name is on the bottle, someone needs to ask the Dr. if something other than Viagra was prescribed, and the script for that drug ALSO done in the Doc's name to avoid the shame of being limp balled.

[ShortnFiery]

194. "it sounds as though there were other pills"

The Customs had confiscated the drugS (that's plural!)

The spin doctors are trying to play down with the Viagra defense (he he heh), but even that is disgusting on so many levels.

Yes! DRUGS DRUGS ... means MORE THAN JUST VIAGRA!

Yippee! :woohoo:

[MADem]

203. What I think is that he had the DR script for the big blue pills

...and while he was down in Dominica, he either caught the clap, and bought antibiotics, or he got himself a little oxy or some other fun drug, just to take the edge off on the ride home. And he stuck those pills in his V bottle!

And then, he was so high, he forgot about 'em, or figured they wouldn't bother him, because he has a private jet, and he's so important, ya see!

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - Rush Limbaugh was detained for about three-and-a-half hours Monday at Palm Beach International Airport after authorities said they found a bottle of Viagra in his possession without a prescription.

The 55-year-old radio commentator's luggage was examined by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement after his private plane landed at the airport around 2 p.m. from the Dominican Republic, said Paul Miller, spokesman for the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office.

... Sheriff's investigators confiscated the drugs, and Limbaugh was released around 5:30 p.m. without being charged.

However, the sheriff's office plans to file a report with the state attorney's office.

"We believe there may be a second degree misdemeanor violation, which is possession of certain drugs without a prescription, because the bottle does not have his name on it," Miller said.

[CatholicEdHead]

147. Would a 2nd Degree misdemeanor be a probation violation?

I'm hoping there isn't some wiggle room or "samples" exclusion. It sounds like there isn't.

Limbaugh Detained at Palm Beach Airport
Monday, June 26, 2006
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Rush Limbaugh was detained for more than three hours Monday at Palm Beach International Airport after authorities said they found a bottle of Viagra in his possession without a prescription.

Customs officials found a prescription bottle labeled as Viagra in his luggage that didn't have Limbaugh's name on it, but that of two doctors, said Paul Miller, spokesman for the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office.

A doctor had prescribed the drug, but it was"labeled as being issued to the physician rather than Mr. Limbaugh for privacy purposes,"Roy Black, Limbaugh's attorney, said in a statement. <snip>

Limbaugh has been doctor shopping again. Also, the AP story mentions that there were other drugs besides Viagra but doesn't say what they were.

[The Brethren]

340. good catch....

"the AP story mentions that there were other drugs besides Viagra but doesn't say what they were."

I saw that too. Why didn't they mention what they were? They had no problem talking about the Viagra.

[ptolle]

236. small surprise

No, not that pigboy thought he was above the law but that fux news(?) channel reported it at all. It's out there amongst the brain-dead/damaged now and spin it as they will their control is now minimal and the story will take on a life of its own. I'd love to be in a writers meeting for TDS sometime soon here.Olbermann will have a great take on it as well.

[ebayfool]

266. Two doctors names? Sounds like MORE than one bottle, doesn't it?

And wouldn't that also smell like more doctor shopping?
I've never seen script written out to 2 names before.

Uh-oh! :rofl:

[nytemare]

315. Well, wasn't a very good job of privacy protection, was it??

Now, everybody knows that Rush needed viagra because Mr Willy flopped from the Oxy.

Everybody knows.

Bwaaaaahahhhaaaa

[debbierlus]

209. He's an addict and deserves same compassion he would show other addicts

Which would be none...

He should be thrown in jail to rot (according to his beliefs and poisonous words).

[Patchuli]

211. Sounds like jailtime this time!

F*cking hypocrites! They had better treat him just the same as they would treat any of the rest of us if we tried to do what Rush has done.

[Up2Late]

213. Oh, Thank You Jesus!

Please say this is true! :evilgrin:

[cobaindrain]

216. wow, he'll never live this down

[smtpgirl]

217. I JUST LOVE THIS THREAD

Let him "burn", maybe his just dessert???

HMMMM!!!

[ikojo]

218. Rush needs help to get things

to rise to the occasion?

[smtpgirl]

219. Rush reminds me of Keith Richards & Paul McCartney,

He wants us to be sympathetic of him, oh no, not I.

PLEASE just once, let him get treated like a minority, poor, non-white, woman, whatever.

Then just let him broadcast his HATE again!!

I dare!!!

[cobaindrain]

221. well, you know Rush has to remain "potent"

For those nubile young Puerto Rican boys he's after.

"Rush's bizarre island sex romp!"

what a headline that would be

[whistle]

222. Again, Limbaugh using prescription drugs which are not his....

...Exactly what happens when someone takes 100 Viagra doses? Does that cause a persons brain to think only ultra conservative thoughts?

[ebayfool]

272. Certain body parts explode?

causing the user to blow madly around the room like an untied balloon? Just guessing here. Wouldn't that give him a heart attack?

Horrible Rush mental pictures, ewwww! ... I gotta go wash my brain!

[cobaindrain]

223. Roger HedgeCOCK to fill in for Rush LimpDick

possibilities are endless

[nealmhughes]

224. A transcript of Lush Limpball on drugs:

I want to let you read along with me a quote from Jerry Colangelo about substance abuse, and I think you'll find that he's very much right…"I know every expert in the world will disagree with me, but I don't buy into the disease part of it. The first time you reach for a substance you are making a choice. Every time you go back, you are making a personal choice. I feel very strongly about that."

--Rush Limbaugh TV show (9/23/93)


"My how the worm begins to term, when will the the drug fiend ever learn?" (apologies to Rice and Webber)

[Buzz Clik]

228. Limbaugh is a bloated pile of shit, but...

... he has never denied full responsibility for his problem. Now, granted, he has used his money and celebrity to keep his sorry ass out of jail, but he at least gives lipservice to being responsible. And then gets busted again.

[Beausoir]

244. The pig NEVER took responsibility for his crimes. NEVER.

He used his employees to buy his drugs.

He never admitted his crimes. He never accepted responsibility.


Never.

[Buzz Clik]

318. well he did say ...

that his addiction was in part due to choices he made. My only point...

[cobaindrain]

225. and don't forget...this is all Clintons fault

[DesertRat]

229. The Freepers are going nuts

I peeked into Freeperfille. They are blaming liberals, ranting about Rush's privacy being invaded and saying that Rush should sue the airport for leaking the info.
But none of them have questioned why a single, Christian man needs Viagra...

:rofl:

[HuffleClaw]

256. they have multiple threads about this

and what i find interesting is that there is open dissent about the issue. funny how some of 'em have managed to blame everyone (hillary, fdr, the media, a liberal conspiracy, foreign (read: hispanic) airport workers, dan rather...) for this EXCEPT rush. good reading if ya need a laugh.

[DesertRat]

355. Are there any doctors here?

Is it legal to prescribe a med. in YOUR name, then give it to a patient?

[lpbk2713]

271. And why did he still have it on his RETURN trip from the D.R.?

He's so pathetic and so ugly he couldn't score if he wore a suit made of $50 bills.

When they searched his luggage did they find his blow-up doll too?

[savemefromdumbya]

230. Lost for words!

:rofl: :rofl:

[drhilarius]

231. Poor Rush ain't thinkin' straight...

either...

1) Too much blood being diverted from his brain due to the viagra or

2) tertiary syphilis from banging whores in the DR.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

233. Maybe he was hoping his erection would last 10 years so he could sue

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=5305528&mesg_id=5305528

[SeloverB]

234. Violation of Plea Deal?

If this ia all about vaigra, I doubt that it will warrant much
importance in the Criminal Justice system just by itself. It
could however, violate his plea deal in the previous case
about the doctor shopping for oxycontin, which could mean
re-sentencing on that case. Wouldn't that be a shame,
especially for someone already rehabilitated!  

[bushwhacked2008]

235. We just gotta prove that he actually "inhaled" them somehow.

How can we prove that he was using them?

[Barad Simith]

286. No need to prove that he was using them

International drug smuggling is a crime, and committing any crime is a violation of his probation.

He's done.

[Best_man23]

237. Maybe he was trading the Viagra for Oxycoton

Somehow, I don't think the little blue home run hitter, even at 100 mg dose would help the gasbag.

Why do I get the feeling we won't hear much about this on the Repug News Channel (aka Faux News)?

[dapper]

238. Rush Limprod

...Someone had to have thought of this prior to me posting it but I'll have to read through all those messages.

Rush Limp-rod...bwa ha ha ha

Dap

[pstokely]

240. what use does he have for viagra? (besides posibily hookers)?

[SlipperySlope]

245. I take glee in the distress of my enemy

It is that simple.

[Not Sure]

247. I'm reminded of something Bill Hicks said...

"Speaking of Satan... I was watching Rush Limbaugh the other day. Doesn't Rush Limbaugh remind you of one of those gay guys who likes to lay in a tub while other men pee on him? Doesn't he? Am I the only one?

"Can't you see his fat body in a tub while Reagan, Quayle and Bush just pssssh just stand around pissing on him, and his little piggly wiggly dick can't get hard... 'Aah, aah, I can't get hard, Reagan, pee in my mouth!' 'Well, how's that, Rush?'

"Still can't get hard, so they call in Barbara Bush, she takes her pearls off, puts them up his ass, then squats over him, undoes her girdle, her wrinkled, flaccid labia unfolds halfway down to her knees, like some ball-less scrotum.

"'Ungh, ungh.' She squeezes out a Lincoln to his mouth, finally his dick gets half hard: 'Oooough!' A little clear bubble forms on the end, with a maggot inside. The maggot pops the bubble and runs off and joins a pro-life group somewhere.

"Am I the only one who sees that, or no? Thank god I'm not alone. Thank god I had the insight to notice that Rush Limbaugh is a scatmuncher! He munches scat!"

-- Bill Hicks, Rant in e-minor

[goodboy]

290. I miss Bill..One of my favourite quotes of his:

See I think drugs have done some good things for us. If you don't think drugs have done good things for us then do me a favor. Go home tonight and take all of your records,tapes and all your CD's and burn them. Because, you know all those musicians who made all that great music that's enhanced your lives throughout the years? Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreal fucking high on drugs, man.

Bill Hicks lives inside of me.

[MatrixEscape]

248. And most of you ...

Are acting like post-modern-jews ready to pass judgement on the anti-jesus as if that is really a good thing. Yes, I agree with you, it would be nice to see this character get the justice he deserves.

What I am noting is the release and orgasmic relief that is coming in here. You are all primed and pumpes and ready to be moved. Rush is just a player in a bigger game and, potentially an easily sacrificed show just waiting to happen.

However, you are prone to "getting off" and that is both impulsive and very predictable. Hmmm ... should we get beyond this YET? Or do we just play along, build up, release ... and tack on some sort of result like rightous idignation in the service of some vague good without a bad?

I am not putting down this group celebration, but questioning the nature and intent beyond it and behind it.

If we could crucify Rush for his sins, would we? ;)

Glad you are all enjoying this news as much as I, but don't forget to see the much, much bigger picture that the sheeples tend to miss and ignore as the show goes on.

[Alcibiades]

260. A rather bad analogy

because the whole jesus/barabbas episode hinged on a choice between two convicts, whereas here no choice is being offered, not to mention the antisemitism that has resulted from the episode, which may be either apocryphal or the result of a mistranslation in any event.

A far better comparison could be made to the way right wingers pilloried Bill Clinton for his sexual indiscretions. Does it speak well of us that we are behaving similarly? Not really, but most of us are frustrated with the double standards imposed on Democratic versus Republican public figures.

In any event, Limbaugh has invited all this rancor with the self-righteous cult of personality he has cultivated among his following over the years. I'd probably feel a little different if it were someone else, say one of the Bush daughters, but Limbaugh is a big boy who gives as good as he gets, and wholly deserves any and all derision aimed at him, particularly since he has blown the free pass he would surely have denied anyone else, given the chance.

Limbaugh is not easily sacrificed. There's no one to replace him. In this big picture, this is yet another chicken that has come home to roost, another veil that has been lifted, another sign that the emperor really is naked. If there is malice and vitriol in our celebration of limbaugh's comeuppance, it is because it is long overdue, and we remember well the ill-will Limbaugh himself feels for us, which he expresses every chance he gets. The coarsening of the political discourse in America is Limbaugh's real sin, and yes, I'd drive the nails in myself if given the chance, because open, reasoned debate is the lifeblood of democracy, and Limbaugh has done much to stifle real debate, working assiduously to brainwash his followers in the most cynical way imaginable.

[MatrixEscape]

270. Granted ...

But the repressed and infuriated crowd rushes in for blood sacrifices not based on the real person or issues, but because the powers that be might find a sacrifice or martyr for its own, greater purpose.

Like it or not, we are all One. The Universe is One. We are all part of this passion play and very few of us like the idea of seeing it that way because we are very much stimulated, cajoled, and trapped into our own personal games that require what is happening as a result, as supposed to seeking and finding a comprehensive and intrinsic solution to it.

It is a game, in the end, isn't it? Doesn't that require sides, squares of different colors, etc? My dislike for Rush and his views is my part of that game. He is STILL a human being who has found his place to play and has done well in his strategy. I do not envy that, but I don 't want to end up being trapped by the morals and standards that people who fall, at will, into the seriousness of the show and fail to see that we are all players, regardless of the spoils. Who wins and loses is a moot issue in relation to the fact that, as much as we fight the fact, we are ALL IT!

Without that qualification, in short, I see nothing more than players who not only don't see the game with its overall process and implications, but who play it deadly seriously with a self-imposed righteousness that illustrates that both sides are merely ignorant poles of the very same phenomena, differentiated only by formalities and obvious dichotomies.

We are all in this together. We are all this together. Does that ever get to what is behind the facades?

[NJCher]

281. the achievement of Rush Limbaugh

He is STILL a human being who has found his place to play and has done well in his strategy.

I really have to question your values. Your statement would have one believe that perversion of the language and logic for purposes of personal enrichment is finding his place in the world. Hardly. This man has exploited the disenchanted and disenfranchised and while doing so, he has turned them into a cult that serves the premiere exploiters of our time, the republican party. That's a calling?

Next, what do you mean by "has done well with his strategy?" Do you mean financial enrichment? Or do you mean he has been successful in rousing the marginalized to the cause of the republican party? Neither of these could be considered a worthwhile life achievement.

392. "Glad you are all enjoying this news

as much as I, but don't forget to see the much, much bigger picture that the sheeples tend to miss and ignore as the show goes on." Sheeples? Interesting choice of words.

I already see the "big picture", in fact a little too much. And I'm also quite capable of forming my own opinions on this or any other issue...but thanks for your advice.

"Hmmm ... should we get beyond this YET?" To answer your question, for myself, no. Actually, I don't plan on "get(ting) beyond" this issue anytime soon whether I talk about it here, to my partner, friends, etc or anywhere else.

"If we could crucify Rush for his sins, would we?" Verbally - absolutely, legally - without a doubt, if I could.

[Ilsa]

249. Heh heh. He went to Dominican Republic in the off-season?

Geez, it has to be really hot there, even for a Caribbean country. I wonder if it was for the drugs or someone to use them with?

[mnhtnbb]

250. Big deal. Rush can't get it up without help. What a surprise.

This is only an embarassment. Who cares?

[DainBramaged]

251. Viagara, the impotent Repug' s best friend besides crack whores

[lpbk2713]

257. I wonder if Jeb will get Pimple-Butt off the hook ..... again?

Limbaugh no doubt has the Jebster on his speed call list. Those RW multi-millionaires stick together you know.


Just the same it's good news knowing this asshole is stewing in his own juices.



:applause:

[knight_of_the_star]

259. Hmmm

What was he doing in the Dominican Republic?

[Canuckistanian]

261. Rush has got a Jones

A monkey on his back, a hang-up.

Oh, what will we tell the children? :evilgrin:

[Alcibiades]

262. Oxycontin causes impotence

Although it may well be the case that Limbaugh is impotent for other reasons (I suspect he may have hypertension), opiate analgesics such as Oxycontin are a cause of drug-induced impotence.

Thus, his need for viagra may offer a clue to what some of the other drugs found were--it is possible that the Viagra was identified because of its distinctive shape and color, or because unprescribed possession of it is not as serious a crime as possession of OxyContin. As a schedule II narcotic, it may be that they sent it to the lab for testing and simply don't have the results back yet.

Just a guess.

[mirandapriestly]

264. It seems like Viagra wouldn't be the problem for him

finding someone to do it with would.

[Bigmack]

280. He needs Viagra .....

to get it up to get a little piece of fist!

[wanpete]

268. his pompous arrogance about his whole "addiction situation"

is catching up with him. He never expressed any sincerity about the seriousness of his problem, his empathy for others fighting addiction, not to mention his mean-spirited comments prior to him being caught doctor surfing. This and many other things will haunt him and all other hate spewers who have hijacked this country purely for political and economic gain with no sincere concern for its people or its principles.

I don't feel sorry for him at all.

[bluestateguy]

273. I'm sure Jeb Bush is readying the pardon

right on his way out of the Governor's Mansion.

278. Lib here, motivated by guilt

Yup, I'm guilt ridden, as Rush points out over and over. Today I'm super-guilty of being so damn happy with this story....

[truthisfreedom]

279. was it a violation of probation for limprod to leave the state?

just asking.

[Divine Discontent]

282. I think it may have been!

I don't like seeing personal misery for drug users. but this WINDBAG keeps attacking others while he himself has had major problems... what a loser.

[truthisfreedom]

285. there's no way he could have left the country without permission...

i imagine his lawyer worked something out for him. but there's always hope he completely blew it off...

284. Oh, we got him, now. And it ain't the legality, either.

BWAHAHAHAHAH LIMPDICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PatGund]

294. Rush Limpbaugh.......

.........with talent on loan from Pfizer.

[sendero]

295. I find the "labelled as" qualifier interesting.

... that doesn't mean the drug contained is actually Viagra. Viagra is easily available stateside from any number of sources, some "discreet". If fear of someone finding out he was getting Viagra was the issue, flying to another country and getting a bottle under someone else's name sure seems like a lot of trouble to go to.

What if the bottle was "labelled as" Viagra but actually contained something else. With the bogus name used as another layer of protection. That is the conclusion I would reach in this situation.

[Ragin_mad]

296. The Limbaugh Institute

For Advanced Drug Studies ?

[liberal N proud]

297. Isn't this a violation of his earlier agreement with the court?

[Ganja Ninja]

300. Thats the question I have too.

If he plead no contest to the earlier charges and made a deal then the deal should go out the window and he should be re-sentenced on those charges.

[Francine Frensky]

298. Notice how the headlines have dropped "other drugs"! the coverup has begun

When the story first broke, it was about other drugs AND Viagra. Now the headlines are just about the Viagra, and the lawyer/spin doctor has quickly gotten a story out there to play on the public's sympathy for viagra users and privacy issues....nothing to see here, move along.....My guess is something happened behind the scenes (jebby called) and all the other drugs found in limpballs possession have been flushed out of existence and off of the record.

In spite of violating parole by new doctor shopping and prescription tampering, leaving the country to outsource his sex life, AND most likely having other illegal drugs in his possession....I'd bet a million bucks that he walks away untouched. The republicans are so corrupted and morally bankrupt that they will allow this sick man to be their spokesperson forever. And oddly, that will work in our favor as he continues to embarrass himself every few months. There's no way his antics are good for the corruptublican party.

[Ragin_mad]

299. leaving the country to outsource his sex life

I see no problem with that. The only problem is that he came back.

[truthisfreedom]

303. except that he claims to be Christian and he's unmarried and having sex.

either that, or he can't masturbate successfully without viagra.

[shain from kane]

305. Then there's that onanism thing. n/t

[Wise Doubter]

313. a 4 hour masturbation session?

WOW,...:freak:

other hour is just for himself.

323. lol

[DUBYASCREWEDUS]

324. Is it just me

or is anybody else out there totally and violently ill at the thought that anyone would want to have sex with that pig? :puke:

[Felix Mala]

325. To be a conservative... Everyday you have to get up, look at the

world and somehow convince yourself that things are fine and your man Bush is doing a heckuva job. So it's easy to say, as they are on their blogs, that Rush isn't a backsliding drug felon. Nope, he's the victim of nothing more than an "improperly prescribed" medication. Completely removes him from the equation because surely there's some other entity responsible for this. It's like shooting somebody and then claiming you didn't, that they were victims of an "improperly delivered" bullet.

Throw another log on the fire...

[The Brethren]

326. How many breaks does this moron get?

He already got out of charges before. Now his supporters are saying he only used his doctor because he was afraid if everyone found out about the Viagra. I'm sure he was. But he still broke the law. And if this were a Democrat or liberal, he'd be all over them in his show.

And wanna guess what Mr. Hypocrite was doing in the Dominican Republic with his little bottle of Viagra? LOL Nothing I bet the fundies would like to know about.

[racaulk]

327. Ha ha!

[YankeyMCC]

328. ROTFLMFAO!!!!!

:spray:

Part of me really feels ashamed at laughing, this sort of drug addiction is a serious and often devastating problem for so many. But this gas bag's hypocrisy and hate-mongering just pushes this man beyond my sympathy at this moment.

[underpants]

330. I have to completely agree

:rofl:

[lebkuchen]

332. There will be no "rise and shine" for Rush this morning!

Poor thing. :)

[The Brethren]

337. Nope, no morning taps for Bugle Boy

hehehehehehe! except he probably has an extra stash under his office chair as the good Christian boy that he is. O8)

[DiverDave]

335. Fuck that fat fucker.

I would kick his ass if I ever saw him in person.

Yup, you scumbag freepers that read this site, and I would kick your ass too.

I am so sick and tired of idiots, with all the evidence that this junta (look it up freeper scum) lied and caused the death of THOUSANDS of innocents.
And FOR WHAT????

NOTHING!!!
Then, you glorify a drug addled loudmouth that RAN AWAY from serving his country?

Tell you freeper lurkers what, PM me, we will set up a meet, and we will "discuss it".
But you better come with a lunch, you see, I have a bunch of frustrations to clear up.
So it may take awhile.

And, joe freeper, I'm still waiting for the time and date to talk about you "beating down" my Liberal Dad ass.

Time to put up or shut up, you freeper goons, come on, LETS ROCK!

God, please let there be just 1 to answer.

[tabasco]

338. I'd kick his ass too.

Let that asshole call me a traitor to my face, the cowardly fuck.

He calls all liberals traitors.

He has damaged this Nation with his lying and hatemongering.

I have nothing but ill will for such a rotten person.

Rot in hell Limbaugh. I LMAO at your misfortune.

[BigDDem]

336. Rush LIMPbaugh

time to send him "up the river"

[raggedcompany]

339. I can 't stand Limbaugh, but this story makes me angry for another reason:

WTF are they searching people for? To prevent terrorism, or to make arrests for misdemeanors? Farg..Viagra isn't even narcotic.

String him up if you want, but the real issue here is police state mentality. Why the hell are we allowing the government to arrest people for petty shit like this??

I have big reservations about this kind of thing.

[uncle ray]

343. true, but

this worthless fuck is the LAST person i want as an example of how wrong the US drug laws are.

it doesn't matter that Viagra isn't narcotic, you're falling for his lawyer's spin. the bottom line is he was in posession of prescription drugs that were in someone elses name. to compound it, he violated his plea agreement. any poor person KNOWS DAMN WELL that when you are on probation or any kind of plea, you DO NOT fuck it up! a sympathetic police officer may look the other way if he finds drugs on a first time offender, but if you're being watched by the state, he will not let it slide. the thing is, the stupid fucker COULD have avoided this snafu if he had only followed the law and got his prescription in his own name, nobody but his doctor and pharmacist would know he has a tiny limp dick, but no, he had to hide it, and now the whole fucking world knows. beautiful irony.

as far as the drug laws on the books, as long as they are what they are, i don't have much of a problem with authorities checking people entering the US from foreign countries for drugs, as they have been for many more years than the bullshit war on terrorism, but i DO have a problem with that level of scrutiny on people travelling within the US.

[RangerSmith]

345. Sounds like

how you feel about someone is more important than how they got in trouble.

The speech that disgusts you the most is the speech you must fight the hardest to protect.

Basically applies here as well, IMHO.

[tabasco]

349. Nobody's trying to shut Rush up.

We're calling out a hypocrite.

Rush tries to silence dissent and calls dissenters traitors.

I'll fight for Rush's right to say what he wants but I damn sure don't have to like it or like Rush !

In fact I revel in his misfortune.

Rush does his best to further the police state. He is only getting what he asked for.

[Sapere aude]

351. There was a time when that speech had an equal fair reply .

What Rush does is destroying our country and even though it is legally protected speech there is such a thing a morality. His speech is immoral because it is nothing but lying propaganda the same as what Joseph Goebbels did for Hitler. Rush supports an immoral illegal administration with lying propaganda and that is nothing I want to protect.

[RangerSmith]

354. Thats what the other side

says about Michael Moore.

[FredScuttle]

383. And what say you?

hmmm?

[Maccagirl]

393. Still waiting for an anwer RangerSmith

Michael Moore=truthteller

Rush Limbaugh=liar and slanderer

[raggedcompany]

357. re: you're falling for his lawyer's spin.

Are you trying to be insulting? I'm falling for no one's spin; I'm offering my perspective on the story. What a shitty thing to say in supposedly civil conversation.

[FredScuttle]

384. A question on your post above

Since when did a customs search equal violation of civil liberties?

[The Brethren]

353. I don't know why they chose to search him.

It could've random been or someone tipped them off. They also haven't disclosed what other drugs they found - unless it was a typo with the news to begin with.

I don't see this as a police state mentality issue. Anyway you cut it, it is illegal to use or possess prescription drugs that are not in your name...which he got caught doing. I also personally don't see it as a petty issue. In addition, he may have also violated his plea agreement with his earlier case - another offense. No sympathy here. Aside from his hypocrisy in general, limbaugh got away with fraud to conceal infor. on his other prescription charge and walked away with from it. Had that been any "ordinary" person, they wouldn't have gotten off so easily. Apparently he thinks he's above the law and the law has allowed him ot think that way.

I feel he is getting just what he deserves, only not everything he deserves because once again, he'll probably get a pat on the wrist. Even if they report later on that they found more serious drugs on him...he'll still get out of it.

[raggedcompany]

358. I understand what you're saying.

And I certainly won't argue for his defense. But I also won't argue in defense of the government's ability to search and arrest people for crap like this. It's ridiculous. He's not smuggling. He's not dealing. He's technically breaking the law, and his terms of probation, etc. But Jesus Christ, we've got nothing better to do than prosecute people with an illicit bottle of boner pills?

That's taking things way too far imho.

[FredScuttle]

385. A customs search is "taking things too far"?

Are you serious?

[MADem]

365. They are searching him because he was coming from a FOREIGN country

Like Jeb's wife was...with her tens of thousands of dollars of undeclared, taxable goods.

It's not always about terrorism. It's about the TAX GAP. Google it. You'll be seeing tax enforcement take on a new priority nowadays, because they've got a war to pay for.

Of course, he wasn't down there to do any shopping of the duty free variety, but how would one know that until his bags got tossed?

Surely you aren't suggesting that because he flies on a private plane, he doesn't have to go through what every other traveller experiences coming through customs???

[raggedcompany]

374. That makes sense.

I get what you're saying and it makes (a kind of) sense. I still don't like it. It's a bottle of Viagra. Sure, technically, it's against the law. But it's petty stuff. It's not a narcotic, it's not a large amount, it's not being smuggled for resale, etc. It's just a dude with a bottle of viagra pills. Why is that worth arrest?

If they found a box of cuban cigars, and arrested him on the same grounds, I'd be just as indignant.

And no, of course I'm not saying rich people shouldn't be searched.

I'm just unhappy with the application of the law here. It's nitpicking and petty...follows the letter of the law but hardly the spirit.

Around here, the fact that it's Limbaugh means that the stupid application of the law is a cause for celebration. But if it were someone we like who got treated this way, more people would be complaining like me that the story is just lousy.

[FredScuttle]

386. Here's a newsflash for you: People DO get treated like this every day

It's a customs search. It's a drag and invasive and yadda, yadda, yadda, but thousands of people do it every day. Better than 90% of them have the common sense (or are sober enough) to realize that it's probably not a good idea to stash illegal drugs in their bag when entering the U.S.

Does it enter into your thinking that this is a violation of whatever sweetheart agreement Rush struck with the prosecutors? Hey, it's not us celebrating over here that got Rush in trouble and busted his fat ass back to the Big House (hopefully)....it was his choice to attempt to enter the country with illegal prescription pills and he got busted. Life is sweet and I shed not one tear for his dumb ass.

388. I came into the USA from JAMAICA in the mid-70s

Now, many here don't remember that far back, but there was a period of time when SUGAR prices went through the fucking ROOF, like gas prices are now (funny, ain't it, how that high fructose corn syrup shit started taking off around that time, too....but I digress).

I was younger then, making lousy money, and had some aunties and a grandma who loved to bake, and of course, I liked to eat the stuff they made. They were on fixed incomes and bemoaned the price of sugar, which had SKYROCKETED during that time--it was like GASOLINE is doing today. So, since I wasn't rich as Roosevelt at the time, I figured a great, cheap souvenir to bring them from my travels was a shitload of sugar. Why? Because it was something like six cents a kilo there; and packaged very plainly in sealed, flat, clear plastic pouches. So, I bought something like thirty or forty POUNDS of the stuff, and stuck it in my softsided suitcase, which had nothing in it save shorts, t-shirts, bathing suit, flip flops and the usual toothbrush/toothpaste crap.

Guess what happened next?

I go to Customs, have nothing to declare (the cost of the sugar wasn't even close to the max I could have brought in), but I still have to go through the line and deal with the formalities, as we all do. They popped my bag, for whatever reason (profile/random, who knows?) and went APESHIT. I explained to them that it was SUGAR, and of course they didn't believe me. I said "Taste it, asshole! Open every single pouch and taste it, but you'd better tape them back shut, or my grandma will have your ass!"

They sliced into a few, tasted (after I went first), taped them back up as I asked, visually inspected the rest carefully (the sugar down there is much nicer and a bit cruder than the sugar in the US, but if you look, you can SEE what it is--it has a nice sparkle to it) and then, they LAUGHED LIKE HELL. They said I gave them a story for the ages.

I actually thought it was pretty funny, myself...I mean, really, I'd either have to be an idiot or an idiot with brass ones to try to saunter through customs with forty pounds of something illegal that was white and granular in my checked baggage!

[Vektor]

341. Again?

Maybe if he'd just stop embracing the politics of hate, and distance himself from the psychotic Neo-con agenda, he might not need so many pills.

I guess someone consumed with that much vitriol must need a lot of meds to get through the day.

348. Bless your little heart, Rush!

Who would ever have thought Rush Limp-baugh could make me happy, but it's true. You made my day! This is even better than if they'd busted your ass for having oxycontin again.

[Alcibiades]

350. Totslly minimized on MSNBC

They ran the story (without mentioning the "other drugs") and their talking heads were like "It's no big whup." Their brunette Barbie then said something about how he had the "best of intentions."

Huh? How is it that someone who pled to doctor shopping can get drugs in someone else's name and it's not a big deal? The judge needs to haul his ass in ASAP.

[The Brethren]

372. the local repug controlled radio station

did the same thing this a.m. - tried to shrug it off. The same program that insists that they are "fair and balanced." Not!

He belongs in jail. No further sweetheart deals.

Too bad there weren't any reporters or police around him in the DR. I would wager he was involved in a lot more then using someone else's prescription. Things he routinely denounces in his show.

[BOYLANE]

352. why bother

Can Limblob even find his tiny prick under all those rolls? I mean why bother; who would want that it?

[DesertRat]

356. To the FREEPERS who are reading, a question....

Why does an unmarried man (who was not travelling with a female companion, btw) need Viagra for a trip to the Dominican Republic?? Who was he going to need an erection for? :shrug: hmmm....

[Fluffdaddy]

360. For a little Brown Skinned 3rd world Pooh-Tag action is my guess

[Unkle Karl]

364. I have to say...

Once again, no story here, people. Please keep moving. If we as a group have any interest in being taken seriously as a political movement, we might want to think twice about the things on which we so strongly editorialize. I'm no fan of Limbaugh. And I have a problem with the narcotics issue of late. This one, however, is one of those issues that should just pass on by. So the guy can't get it up and he has to use a pill to get wood, and his name does not appear on the bottle. I think we should let this one go and try to keep our eye on the ball: elections and Iraq, imho.

Respektfully,
Karl

[Fluffdaddy]

367. Just having a little bit of fun Unkle Karl. we have 100's of threads about

elections and Iraq...............oh btw, Welcome to the democraticunderground ;)

379. Like Rush is tolerant?

Give me a break.

[Patchuli]

370. I beg to differ with you Unkle Karl!

There is a story here. A man has broken the law repeatedly. He got a sweetheart deal instead of jail (as the rest of us would get) in exchange for keeping his nose clean and not breaking the law for 18 months. He hasn't kept his side of the deal. He needs to go to jail and pay his debt for breaking laws. This is exactly what RUSH editorializes about others; why is HE special?! He is as bound as the rest of us to obey the law.

There is plenty to see here people and propaganda telling us otherwise is just that. I don't know your motivation for trying to sweep this away, but welcome to DU anyway.

[Quantess]

396. We need to have a little fun now and then.

I get weary of being pissed off at the Chimperor & co.

If Rush wasn't such a blathering, self-righteous, hypocrite, it wouldn't be much of a story.

But don't worry-- Rush-&-viagra is nowhere near as infamous as Clinton's Penis. I mean, at least we don't try to blame all the problems of the world on Rush, the way right-wingers blame everything on The Clenis.

[Magleetis]

401. Maybe

Sure is funny though. Don't ya think?

382. Don't lock him up... string 'im up!

"Kurt Cobain was, ladies and gentleman, was a worthless shred of human debris." ~ Rush Limpballs

Man if that ain't the pot callin' the kettle black! And damn if "Rush Limpballs" isn't an apt moniker.
This turd should have been flushed a long time ago! He and people like him are the most "worthless shreds of human debris" to ever walk the earth. He deserves no ones compassion - and I'm a Buddhist! But hey, maybe karma is finally catching up to that piece of shit!

[Career Prole]

390. When pigs fly...

...all alone...with an illicitly obtained bottle of Viagra clutched in their sweaty, doughy mitts...to the Dominican Republic which is sadly one of several popular destinations for sexual predators what's a fella to think? That Pigboy went there for a tan?

Where is child sex tourism most prevalent?

Economically marginalized children are at highest risk of being lured into the sex trade and developing countries have increasing sex tourism problems. Countries such as Cambodia, Thailand, Mexico, Costa Rica, Brazil and the Dominican Republic are popular destinations for sexual predators because of the volume of sex tourism venues in operation and the large pool of potential victims who can be easily lured or forced into the sex trade. Additionally, in some countries, local law enforcement tends to be inadequately funded and/or corrupt.

Not that I'd want to start any unstoppable rumors or Google-bombs, or anything... :evilgrin:

[FredScuttle]

395. I thought Rush was down there scouting shortstops?

"But Meester Limbock....why are you patting my bottom? The game hasn't started yet."

[Binka]

399. Rush Was Looking For A Below The Mendoza Line Batter

:hi: Fred!

[FredScuttle]

402. Too bad Rush's pill intake hasn't been below the Mendoza line

Hi Binka - got your PM, thanks!

"I just don't understand how a grown man with that much money is getting into trouble. "



That just pisses me off... I mean, we all know it's true that money buys a different kind of justice, but the blind acceptance that it's the way things should be just makes me see red...

[BrightKnight]

398. He was caught pulling a Dole.

Didn't Bob Dole get caught with a sack of money in a brothel?
