Limbaugh Detained At Airport
Joy Purdy
Reporting
(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.
Unfortunately, it's so elementary, and the big time investors behind the drive in the stock market aren't so stupid. This isn't the false economy of 2000.
i wonder how much money he spends cleaning and fixing all those glass walls in his glass house?
hehehe--viagara. people do use it recreationally...but given the physiological mechanism of the drug, that is about as smart as drinking a paint thinner cocktail.

it's only a big deal because he made it a big deal. Rush has a very strigent drug abuse policy that he put out years ago. I forget the exact thing he said, but he thought that recovering abusers should still be punished and was just so disgusted at the fact drugs could be abused. He took a very noncompassionate stance on the whole thing, and now he's a gigantic pill popper.
There are definitely people who have the views that he says on the radio, but apparently he doesn't follow what he preaches. And taht's pretty fucking lame.

I remember not facing the issue and instead I would address a past issue because that was easier.
The point is that many of you are going against every conviction you pretend to stand for because it is Rush Limbaugh. You know that it is ridiculous that someone was detained for an illegal Viagra prescription, and if it was anyone but Limbaugh it would be a gross violation of privacy, or just a plain idiotic display of judgement when considering the actual drug in question. Because it is Limbaugh, and it shows a very large hypocrisy in things he preached in the past, you throw out all of those convictions you hold because you hate the guy.
LW's comments are relavent because drug abuse is sad and correctible to you in certain instances, but when it comes to someone you dislike it is a joke. It is just a matter of consistancy.

Hahah, yes. God, I am being judgmental and lacking in compassion, oh wait I'm pretending to be Limbaugh. Oh, the sarcasm is just so juicy. He is a saint, oh, I feel for him, he is such a wounded angel. Wait, sorry, my penis has been imbedded in a large, piece of shit individual that for some reason has been given the right to speak. Give me a fucking break

Just say you don't get it. It is easier then trying to be clever and sarcastic.
