He knows the liberals are out to get him and lets himself get caught with a bottle of viagra. It is kind of sad.

Not as sad as being sad about BS.

This was debunked last night right after it was first reported. He had no illegal prescriptions with him. NYT is taking another opportunity to smear a conservative talk show host, what jerks.

That's what I was thinking. Doctors give out samples of these drugs like they used to give out lolly-pops!

"About as common to get this stuff now in MExico as it is to buy TUMS in Detroit. What's the big deal? Why don't they get real serious and go after the crack dealers in the streets of NYC and get REAL serious on the fight to stop drugs?"

Because crack dealers vote Democrat.

How is this any different than doctors giving out samples of prescription medications without a prescription? If he was under a doctors care and the doctor gave him the meds whether it was in the doctors name or not what's the damn difference?

This point was discussed in an thread from earlier today.In short,there are a number of Federal laws (and,I suspect,state laws) that regulate the distribution of prescription medications...including ones that aren't addictive (that is,aren't "controlled substances").

No it is hysterical. This is going to be on the radio and get a ton of air play. Not only is Rush going to make the Florida DA out to be a fool, he is going to attack the NT Times for making this front page news and burying Iraq.

"Don't they love pounding that one into the ground."

I'm sure there's a NYT subscriber somewhere whose dog does not know what viagra is for. The NYT is just making sure everybody understands.

Why is the NY Times reporting about this? I don't see how it directly aids Al Qaeda terrorists.

Oh, but it does.

Remove Rush from the airwaves (NY Times' agenda), and you remove a powerful anti-Al-Qaeda voice.

Sorry in advance to RUSH fans, but after all the BS he went through on the other charges he should have known better. In this case he should have untied the other half of his brain.

He wasn't caught with anything. He had viagra, it was prefectly legal and they let him go after questioning. This was all put to rest last night but NYT is using it to smear Rush for those people, apparently you are one of them, who wish to believe the worst of a conservative, especially Rush.

so what's the difference between this and getting free samples of the same stuff from an MD?(also without a name/prescription label on the bottle)

The bottom line is Rush had a valid perscription.

The key to this whole thing is the leak to the press. Who did it? It wasn't wrong for them to hold him and resolve the prescription issue. But a phone call should have resolved it before anybody found out.

It's the Customs officials and/or the Palm Beach County Sheriff's office that ought to be in trouble here, for making this public. It's not clear that Rush committed any crime, nor has he been charged with committing any crime, and yet he's being put through public embarrassment with the story of what pills he's taking being broadcast around the globe.

Shouldn't both Customs officials and the Palm Beach County Sheriff's office have more pressing matters to attend to these days???? And why does anybody need a prescription for this stuff anyway? It's not an addictive narcotic, and has nowhere near the potential for harm that acetaminophen (e.g. Tylenol) has -- the latter being the leading cause of acute liver failure in the U.S.
