In 2002, Wilma Cline said, a Palm Beach attorney showed up on her doorstep, gave her a check for $100,000 and made her sign a promissory note, but said the "loan" would never be collected. Four months later, in November, the attorney gave her a check for $100,000 and told her not to give Limbaugh any more pills.

Fishy item #1: What if it was a *real* loan (or two), and these accusations are her way of trying to weasel out of repaying it? The fact that there's actually a promissory note bolsters that scenario.

David Cline was arrested for cocaine trafficking in 1982 in Collier County. He posted bond to get out of jail and then skipped, living as a fugitive in New York and Fort Lauderdale under different names until surrendering in 1989. He was convicted and sentenced to five years in prison. In April 2000, while he and his wife were allegedly supplying Limbaugh with drugs, Cline was arrested in Palm Beach County and charged with identity theft, having a counterfeit or stolen driver license and a false vehicle registration, possessing marijuana and resisting arrest.

Fishy item #2: Doesn't this guy sound like the sort of person who'd try to blackmail someone, and/or try a "get rich by selling a juicy story to the media" scheme?

"Those names (the Clines) have never come up. Never." Eisenberg said, "There is nothing in the case about Limbaugh, about the Clines, about anything like that. There is no connection as far as I can tell."

That comment alone is speaking volumes to me. And Clines' massive rap sheet and continous documented lying about everything is speaking even LOUDER!

I agree with no pardons, this stinks to high heaven! Unbelieveable.

Thanks for posting this article.

Just this week a relative who is a lawyer had a charge come through on a credit card which was not his. A quick investigation revealed that a secretary in the dentist's office had stolen the number and made the $300+ charge. She had already been in trouble with the law for drug trafficking and had a $10,000 credit card fraud case pending against her. The question one has to ask is "Why did the dentist not do a thorough background check before hiring this person?" This woman will undoubtedly go to jail and, in the aftermath of this experience, I have to wonder about the Rush accusers. You cannot trust anything said by drug traffickers, criminals who skip bond, fugitives from the law, people who are convicted and sentenced to prison for five years, charged with identity theft, etc., etc. These people are sociopaths..They have no conscience and will do anything. I think it is possible this whole thing is going to blow up in the face of the media because last evening, when a clip was played of Rush saying what he said on ESPN, my husband and I looked at one another with the same thought..The honest average American of any race, is going to view that and is going to say, "What is all the fuss about?" And then that same person is going to get upset as he/she thinks that we live in a society which will fire you and persecute you for giving an honest opinion if it is one they do not agree with. Rush's experience here may do more to demonstrate to America the ugliness of political correctness than anything which has come along to this point. And, the good people of all races should rant and rave against it because they do not deserve to be used in dirty political agendas

I agree that there is a lot that stinks, but we should wait until the whole story comes out. If it turns out that Rush is addicted to painkillers to the point of going to illegalities to get them, then conservatives need to see that a) he gets treatment, and b) he pays the legal price.

He'll rebound, but conservatives need to stick to principles.

Fishy item #3: Would a lawyer ever do something like this? I think that it would be instant disbarment.
