Notwithstanding his past problems, why did he take the risk of traveling to the Dominican Republic, with its reputation for cheap sex, carrying a bottle of Viagra? He may have not engaged in any sexual misconduct, but the circumstances could lead people to believe that it happened. Granted, a man who has been divorced three times is no exemplar of family values, and Limbaugh never pretended to be one. However, an unmarried man carrying Viagra to a place known for available prostitution looks bad. Limbaugh should have dumped the Viagra, especially if the prescription was not in his name, to avoid hassles at Customs.
Limbaugh has been the pioneer of nationally broadcast conservative radio and he played a major role in the Republican resurgence in the 1990s that led to the GOP capturing the White House in 2000 and holding it in 2004, as well as maintaining control of the House of Representatives for almost 12 years. He blazed the path that Hannity, Savage, O'Reilly, and others have followed. However, his lapses in good judgment and his personal problems are serious enough that he needs to step back for a while. The best thing for him and conservatism in general might be his retirement from talk radio, or at least a sabbatical.

No way!! He that has no sin, let him cast the first stone!
I'm single (divorced) and travel every other month or so. I keep a toilet kit with spare razor, toothbrush, comb, etc ready to go.
I also keep a few condoms tucked in it. Do I plan to get laid on every trip? No.
I have little doubt that with Rush's travel schedule that he has similar arrangements, besides, wasn't he in DC before heading to DR? Perhaps he had a liason with a DC honey?
Regardless, it's none of our business and it's a sin, and probably a crime, that the officials at the Palm Beach Airport decided to leak all of this.
