Limbaugh May Have Avoided Speeding Tickets (Humor)

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Authorities are investigating whether Rush Limbaugh, already reeling from drug problems and his expulsion from ESPN, may have driven his vehicle just below the posted speed limits on numerous occasions, a law enforcement source who spoke on condition of anonymity said Wednesday.

As long as four years ago, local law enforcement manning Florida DUI checkpoints and 'speed traps' repeatedly clocked the ultraconservative demagogue at anywhere from one to six miles per hour below the applicable speed limits. Unconfirmed reports indicate that Limbaugh was also seen proceeding through intersections while traffic lights were yellow. One officer who declined to be named told the AP that he had personally observed Limbaugh cruising at 43 in a 45 MPH zone. No charges were filed at that time.

Critics contend that Limbaugh drove very close to the speed limit on at least 30 or 40 occasions, most likely with the deliberate intent of getting to his destination while avoiding tickets for speeding.

Limbaugh's attorney, Roy Black, did not return a phone call for comment Wednesday.

He does not put the seat down sometimes after he pees either according to the National Inquirer.

That's nothing. My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Rush actually go through the express lane at the supermarket with MORE than 15 items. Scandalous!!

The media have a "Rush" and "Bush" thing going on inside their toadie little minds. Their mindset is fighting against the "Wish" we could control free thinkers in America. It appears they are losing at a geometric rate. As much as the libs stir the pot, they do not seem to be gaining traction.

IMOHO

Whoops. Here's a link to Rush's site for non-members of Rush 24/7:

http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/home/today.guest.html

Rush then links to his story on our thread under "illustrating absurdity" near the top of the page.
