I think the Old Grey Lady is getting ahead of herself. From what I've heard, there is no investigation, he was simply stopped, his bags were checked at customs, and some questions were raised about a prescription found in his luggage.

The NY Times so desperately wants to silence Rush, that they'll jump the gun with a story like this.

I'm no fan of the NYT, but once the Palm Beach County Sheriff's office (and possibly Customs as well) started babbling about this publicly, it wasn't unreasonable for the NYT to figure it was newsworthy. If Rush didn't do anything illegal, wasn't arrested, and hasn't been charged with any crime, what the heck are Palm Beach and/or Customs officials opening their traps for? Somebody's head should roll for this, but not at the NYT (though plenty of heads should be rolling there for other, bigger offenses).
