Rush Limbaugh's Prescriptionless Viagra Stash

[Motorboat Cruiser]

As far as the topic goes, I wonder if the fact that he is on probation for doctor shopping might be the deciding factor in whether or not to charge him and/or what penalties he may face.

His lawyer claiming that he did nothing wrong doesn't really sway me. Don't they all say that?

Good lord knows OJ was innocent. Lawyers don't lie. Surely they don't.

The spokesman for the state attorney said it most likely was not illegal- not just his personal attorney.

Fair enough, I'll admit that. Unfortunately it's too late for me to change it.

I have listened to Rush, but not for very long. I found him to be grating, condescending, and pompous. I used to enjoy Al Franken (especially when he was on SNL and the early election/campaign coverage he did for Comedy Central), but I can't listen to him any more because I now find him grating, condescending, and pompous.

Any time someone sets him/herself up on a pedestal and has a holier-than-thou attitude, I revel in seeing them taken down. I care not if they are Republican, Democrat, Libertarian, or whatever.

It mystifies me that people can listen to talk radio. A colleague of mine does and is constantly freeting over the latest political issue. I prefer entertainment without ulcers thank you very much.

I agree with much of his politics and find him condescending.

But I agree with GD on most all talking heads: they HAVE to be confrontational. No one wants to listen to an agreeable political commentator who equally acknowledges all sides of a story and make rational, reasonable decisions.

I would find that so refreshing and compelling. NPR is about as close as it comes. (I hear a right wing sneaker somewhere.)

I wonder if a stiff sentence will make Rush do hard time for this...

Funny, Rush didn't seem any taller last time I saw him on TV.
