Limbaugh Arrested

by RonChusid

Those conservative “moral values” are apparent again. From AP:

Rush Limbaugh was arrested Friday on prescription drug charges, law enforcement officials said.

Limbaugh turned himself in to authorities on a warrant issued by the state attorney’s office, said agency spokeswoman Teri Barbera.

The conservative radio commentator came into the jail at about 4 p.m. with his attorney Roy Black and was released an hour later on $3,000 bail, Barbera said.

The warrant was for fraud to conceal information to obtain prescription, Barbera said.

  1. Same case but how nice of the state attorney and the media to remind every one.

  2. When I first saw this I thought Ron was posting old news.
    So I wonder if he is blaming a bunch of liberal police officers for his problems.
    Time for him to get pink shorts and play hide-the-soap…

  3. battlebob,

    Dave from P needs to get in here and explain all the reasons Rush has to blame the liberal police officers.

    It all goes back to Clinton, really.

    Personally a LOT of the police officers I have met were not liberals. Not a representative sample however.

  4. Couldn’t happen to a nicer drug addict.

    Will the state send him to rehab, or will they lock him up and throw away the key?

    What would Rush do?

  5. Don’t act like you don’t know Ginny!

    This is payback pure and simple.

    This is just because Rush and the other true American family values heroes were spreading the truth told by those Arkansas state troopers about Clinton’s trysts while he was Gov. Just because they later admitted they made it all up for $ isn’t important of course. The story was and still is true, because they said it and it was/is repeated constantly by the honest unbiased media!

    So what does Bill do? Obviously, he gets Janet Reno to use her connections in FL to get her jack booted thugs to frame poor Rush.

    Damn you again Bill Clinton!

  6. I had my picture taken with Janet Reno (okay, so Patty, who took the pic, cut off both our heads so I can’t actually *prove* it’s me and Janet chillin’) anyway, do you think that means I’m part of the vast left wing conspiracy to get Rush?

    Please? Can I be part of that? I so wanna be part of that. ;-)

    Maybe Rush will be a guest on The Colbert Report soon, you know, to clear his name.

  7. If he keeps it up there will be the
    Rush Limbaugh Wing at the Betty Ford Clinic.

    I wonder if thinks to thank Liberals for giving him a chance to clean himself up?

    What am I thinking about?
    He will blame Liberals for allowing him to have illegal access to drugs and for making it a crime!

    After all,it is Liberals who want to regulate every part of your life; especially what goes on in your own bedroom.

  8. Does Florida have a three strikes and you are out rule for crimes like ths?

  9. KJ,

    I have a pic of me with Janet too(with our heads on though). It’s from last year after she spoke at my office as part of our issues forum. She was speaking on the importance of pre-K education. She also touched briefly on a few other subjects, including her time as US AG etc and answered questions.

    She seems like a very sweet thoughtful person with good sense of humor. Unfortunately, it appears her illness is definitely progressing. The hand tremors had become very pronounced. :-(

  10. BB & Dave! Good morning! Just brewed some coffee, I so rarely have the chance to chat with you all in real time!

  11. Well, almost real time. Sorry, I was over “live blogging” Hayden’s speech, otherwise known as “conversations with myself #210″

    BB, I need your help. Months and months ago, you posted a link describing 4GW that I printed out, but didn’t copy the link. Pretty sure Lind was the author. I’ve been to the site, but can’t find that particular article… it was the one where he describes soldiers actually becoming part of the community where they were stationed… do you know what I’m talking about? Can you help?

  12. KJ,
    I remember the article. It was a while back.
    The only thing I can suggest is go to

    http://www.military.com/Opinions/0,,Lind_Index,00.html

    and work through the articles.

    Here are a few guesses:

  15. I am waiting for the moral values right wingnut freaks to wade in.

    There are a lot of those int the office today and I am having a fun jabbing them with it…

    Like: “I didn’t know buying illegal drugs shows high moral standards?”

    Is this what you mean by compassionate conservativism?

    WMDs are made by Pfizer. Instead of nuking Iran, nuke Pfizer.

  16. battlebob,

    Are we talking an outsourced Pfizer plant or bombing ourselves? I’m not sure W would understand the difference…

  17. LOL

  18. It never cease to amaze me when “conservatives” find excuses for the drug abuse of other “conservatives.” The president of the u.s. is a prime example. Now this idiot, limbaugh. What a flipper this guy is, with his view of minorities, not “liberals” as he might have everyone believe. He is a racist, drug addicted, simple minded, idiot and should be locked away, along with georgie boy, for an extremely long time.
