hannity showed some independence on immigration. He does not follow the wh on immigration and dubai like tony snow did.
I just quoted Savage. So how are my words not accurate? He said Rush turned himself in for arrest. So he was arrested, then released on bond.
I'm not a big Rush fan anymore, but this smells of politics to me. Don't count out Rush yet.

Rush Limbaugh arrested on prescription drug charges
Associated Press
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - Rush Limbaugh was arrested Friday on prescription drug charges, law enforcement officials said.
Limbaugh turned himself in to authorities on a warrant issued by the State Attorney's Office, said Teri Barbera, a spokeswoman for the State Attorney's Office.
The conservative radio commentator came into the jail at about 4 p.m. with his attorney Roy Black and bonded out an hour later on a $3,000 bail, Barbera said.
The warrant was for fraud to conceal information to obtain prescription, Barbera said.
Black said his client and authorities reached a settlement on a single count charge of doctor shopping filed Friday by the State Attorney will be dismissed in 18 months.
Prosecutors seized Limbaugh's records after learning that he received about 2,000 painkillers, prescribed by four doctors in six months, at a pharmacy near his Palm Beach mansion. They contend that Limbaugh engaged in "doctor shopping," or illegally deceived multiple doctors to receive overlapping prescriptions.
Limbaugh has not been charged and maintains he's innocent. He has acknowledged he became addicted to pain medication, blaming it on severe back pain, and took a five-week leave from his radio show to enter a rehabilitation program in 2003.
OK.......... I'm going to eat.
Have a great weekend.
Savage sounds happy about this thing with Rush. that just reeks to me.. Almost like Stern.. that is , in the way Savage blasts his competition.
They have been going after Savage because of the port deal and now it is his turn. Turn about is fail play.
Rush is now convicted of a drug charge !!! WOW.
A la raza whinnie is on
Only if Hilary is on the opposite side of the fence from us :)
"Rush is now convicted of a drug charge !!! WOW."
You just posted an "F" in reading comprehension. I'm no Rush fan, but please read the story correctly.
Fair Play
Rush has been arrested not convicted. We live in a nation of laws (for the time being at least). He is innocent until proven guilty.
One can be revolted by Bush's domestic and foreign policies AND be revolted by a bi-polar maniac (Michael Weiner), who like a broken clock, is correct every once in a while.
savage is right about clinton bush connection.
Double up.
It's a plea agreement. He is busted.
