Rush Limbaugh's defense is that he was protecting his PRIVACY
Edited on Mon Jun-26-06 09:44 PM by abernste
That concept alone is worthy of its own thread. Just think about that the next time he and the other thugs jump all over themselves to defend the BFEE's open attack on every American's right to privacy.

Scumbags.

Limbaugh detained at Palm Beach airport

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - Rush Limbaugh was detained for more than three hours Monday at Palm Beach International Airport after authorities said they found a bottle of Viagra in his possession without a prescription.

Customs officials found a prescription bottle labeled as Viagra in his luggage that didn't have Limbaugh's name on it, but that of two doctors, said Paul Miller, spokesman for the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office.

A doctor had prescribed the drug, 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.

3. Cut your own nose off to spite your face, Rush boy.
Getting rid of privacy rights is okay for others, but not you.. yeah right. They searched you and are investigating you again. Well, welcome to the hell of your own making, worm.

4. It figures that anal retentive gasbag would have trouble getting it up.
I bet he still has trouble finding it. Maybe Rove can give him a hand. Better yet, Ann the Man.

So just shut up and sit down, Mr. Jeff Christie.

And don't be making up no steenking lameass excuses about how Bush White House male prostitute Jeff Gannon gets to use Viagra, and no one cares about him.

We don't want to hear your whiney excuses.

With a generous dose of kozervative kompaSSion, SH

8. Sure, he wants HIS sex life (shudder) to be private,
even though he and the other GOPers want to know what's going on in the underpants of every other American. He doesn't want it generally known that he has a limp wiener, but why didn't he just buy his Viagra on the Internet? (And even if he had a doctor prescribe it in his own name, what's up with going to Dominican Republic -- a country known for its underage sex trade?)

15. It is against the law to carry YOUR OWN RX drugs in anything
other than the pharmacy bottle showing your name, the type of drug and doctor prescribing the drug.
If the doctor gave Rushbo a prescription in his name, the doctor needs to be looked at too.

You can't put your prescription in a plastic bag or in an unmarked prescriptionbottle. You can get busted.

16. Maybe he can get the ACLU to file another Amicus brief for him.
They always seem to be able to support his rights, no matter how badly he and his freepazoid buddies talk about them.
