Limbaugh Detained At Airport Image
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.
That seems reasonable to me. This is a continuation of a witch hunt.
Just curious, if you knew that you were hated by the left as much as he is, wouldn't you try to be as perfect as possible especially in regards to perscriptions. I know for a fact I would not use another name or anything like that. He just gave them ammo. I pray he will be ok.
That's some pretty creative name-calling there, n00bie.
Countless people use those pill organizers. I have to think Rush was either targeted or just had an overzealous customs official.
"For that matter, Republicans and conservatives really need to make a major case out of Frank Fuster, who is still rotting in a flori-duh prison for one of Janet Reno's imaginary witchcraft scenarios which never happened in real life."
I thought Frank Fuster was arrested in the 80s. Am I wrong on that?
That's disgusting. Rank radio, sheesh.
"What was he doing in the Dominican Republic?"
Thinks that make you go "Hmmmmm?...."
People, people have we fallen so far that this story is no longer capable of eliciting childish humor?
OK - I'm game. If you crush up Viagra and sprinkle it on your tomato plants, do you still have to stake them?
Does anyone believe that the President of the United States goes to CVS or Walgreens and picks up his own prescriptions.....?
This is all so very ridiculous... Privacy is the issue...
Some folks take so many maintenance drugs that are prescribed in 3-month amounts that they would need an extra suitcase to travel with the original bottles....
It turned out to be a whole lot of nothing. Except now everybody knows Rush takes Viagra :)
Barf--it's too early in the morning to look at that! :o
I believe he was there for Jerome Bettis' Wedding. My husband's cousin is Clark Haggin's who plays for Pittsburg Steelers and Clark was there for Bettis' Wedding also. I think Rush is friends with Bettis. I could be wrong....
The Dominican Republic has some of the best golf resorts anywhere, Rush goes there a lot. But I believe he was there for a friend's wedding.
I always take a few before bed time. Keeps me from rolling out of bed.
I don't think she's kissing back though jonny. :) She looks pretty closed lip there. She was cute on that panel, I didn't know she had been a comedienne before 24. But she was quick with her wit.
Except now everybody knows Rush takes Viagra :)
It's too early in the morning to think about that!!!!
Read what Ileana Flores/Fuster has to say about the way Janet Reno's gulag operated. It's not clear to me that anybody was ever treated much worse in nazi prison camps.
When they stop gunning for you, you are in the 99 cent discount rack and you are doing Bar Mitzvahs
I remember that Imus show. Charles McCord tried it as well.
Imus asked Charles if it was working. Charles replied, "not at all"...after which Bernie suggested that they try speaking German to Charles.
