Limbaugh Detained At Airport Image

Joy Purdy Reporting

(CBS4 News) WEST PALM BEACH Sources have confirmed to CBS4 News that conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh has been detained at Palm Beach International Airport for the possible possession of illegal prescription drugs Monday evening.

Limbaugh was returning on a flight from the Dominican Republic when officials found the drugs, among them Viagra.

Limbaugh entered a plea deal back in April in a previous case where his charge of fraud to conceal information to obtain prescriptions was dropped under the condition he continue undergoing treatment for addiction.

Limbaugh had admitted to being addicted to pain killers on his radio program and had entered a rehabilitation program prior to that arrest.

Hello,

No rain here, we actually have had a cool down that allowed me to turn off the AC and open the windows. The kids in the neighborhood are asking when they will be able to get back in our pool, LOL!

Hope you and yours stay safe and dry despite the rain (are you on the East Coast, because that looks nasty with all the flooding?)

Glad to be here, MOgirl

What strikes me as odd is the media is giving the impression Viagra is illegal and Rush flies commercial.

Besides, if I dislike him, isn't a thread about his doper butt getting busted a good place to express my gladness about it?

Rush has done more for conservatsism that most folks. He's not perfect, and never claimed to be.

but it was "labeled as being issued to the physician rather than Mr. Limbaugh for privacy purposes," Roy Black, Limbaugh's attorney, said in a statement.

So much for privacy... ROTFLOL

Rush, we LOVE you!

"I don't think Viagra is illegal.... "

Hell, I don't know why it isn't an OTC medicine. All it does is make your **** functional. I suppose it could be considered abusable, and somewhat addictive in a psychological way, but who the hell cares. Chocolate is also illegal to some folks.

Just watched part 2. What a great movie. Duvall is ...Duvall. Was hoping he would marry the broke nose whore and adopt the chinese girls. But he didn't. Nearly got his jewels and member nailed to a stump. I have heard my Grandfather speak of this particular remedy for rapist, back in Louisiana earlier part of the 20th century.

It never ceases to amaze me how gullible so many people are, and in particular people who actually follow this stuff. You would think that after all the false headlines, the fabricated stories, the outright lies the MSM spews about anyone on the right that we all would know to take anything like this with a grain of salt first and wait for a legitimate source. But no, that is not the case, not even here on Free Republic.

Ditto to all that, and sheesh, Freepers, don't we learn anything? I read a lot about press bias here, but when we see another example of it **some** FReepers immediately assume the MSM has it right. Sheesh.

Now I never want to hear another peep from the media (CBS no less on this story) about phone and bank record privacy. One's medical records are even more private than those records == and CBS doesn't give that an ounce of consideration because they have an effective ideological opponent in their sites. Let's stand by our own.

In addition to the lame jokes of Letterman, Leno and the other losers.

I can see it now.

"Limbaugh was detained at Customs in West Palm Beach because he was in possession of a large package".

Rita Cosby seemed to enjoy reporting the story. I have a feeling all the reporterettes will have a field day. I bet that woman who used to be on that early morning news program which is on the same network as MTP wishes she could read this story as her first words of the morning.

I had no takers for my bet, natch. Yah, this is in the news cycle. All this does is inccrease his numbers and profile.
