DOES IT LOOK LIKE SOMEONE IS GUNNING FOR SOMEONE HERE?
This morning we get the word that when Rush Limbaugh landed at Palm Beach International Airport in his private plane yesterday the customs folks decided to go through every bag on the aircraft.
Alas .. they found a bottle of Viagra that didn't have his name on it. Now this is a big news story, and officials are saying that Limbaugh could be charged with a misdemeanor.
OK .. this is a non-narcotic drug. Limbaugh's attorney explains that the bottle carried the doctor's name for privacy reasons. Since authorities in Palm Beach County are so interested in Limbaugh's medications, that's easy to understand.
What isn't easy to understand is why the customs folks decided to target Limbaugh's plane? What's not easy to understand is why they decided to make such a big deal out of a bottle of Viagra. After watching the debacle over Limbaugh's pain-killer addiction, I'm convinced that there are some officials in heavily-Democratic Palm Beach County who have taken it upon themselves to bring Limbaugh down. This incident makes you wonder just how far their reach really is.

Does this mean Rush can't represent the hard right anymore?

Pretty far. Who tipped off the feds to search Rush's luggage? Looks like they were looking for something that would give them cause to arrest him and they felt disappointed.

" This incident makes you wonder just how far their reach really is." Apparently the "reach" extends into U.S. Customs. Were I Mr. Limbaugh, I would consider moving away from Palm Beach County. I hate the thought of anyone allowing themselves to be run out of a place that they chose to live, but the reality is that they are not going to leave him in peace.

Question for the freepers out there. I thought Customs only had authority to search (without a warrant) if the plane was coming in from a different country. True?
If not, wouldn't the Customs folks require a warrant?

A few years ago two CHP officers were successfully sued for retaliating against a man who had lodged a complaint against him. I hope this is a situation that Rush could win a similar lawsuit if he chose to pursue one.
CHO officers lose lawsuit

His plane arrived from a foreign country.

I told my husband exactly the same thing when we saw this on our local news last night. He should move his operation to the redneck riviera and get the heck out of this place.
