I was referring to his position on the war on drugs. He was happy to condemn other users when he was making dodgy cash withdrawals from his bank to pay off his own drug pusher.

I say "dodgy" because by all accounts many of the withdrawals were just under the $10,000 mark.

As you may be aware, a withdrawal of just under 10k skirts the federal law requiring banks to notify the US Treasury Department of withdrawals over the 10k mark.

Rush is said to have made between 30 and 40 such transactions.

You've been misinformed.

If I had that kind of money to withdraw, I would always withdraw it in chunks under $10,000. Nobody's business but my own. It's not illegal either. It doesn't "skirt the law," it follows the letter of the law. As in:

"Limbaugh stopped short of robbing banks to skirt the federal laws against bank robbery." LOL!

Why don't you post your bank statements for the last five years on FR, and let's see if you have been "skirting" any laws.
