Too bad its only on a drug charge.

"He was released an hour later on $3,000 bail.
Limbaugh’s attorney, Roy Black, said his client and prosecutors reached a settlement on a charge of doctor shopping.
Under the deal, Limbaugh would eventually see the charge dismissed in 18 months if he continues treatment for drug addiction, Black said."
Sorry to burst the bubble.

I never said he was charged, only arrested.
-
Serves the pudgy bastard right....
-
Who is this 'Rush Limbaugh' character, again?
-
Pudgy Republican mouthpiece.
-
Considering the current condition of the American media, you're going to have to be a little more specific than that.
-
Pudgy Republican mouthpiece who is possibly more right-wing than Reagan and Bush combined.
A little better?
-
hes also a memeber of the klan :D
-
Say what?!
-
just a little healthy propaganda :D

I knew one of you people would be all over it like a wet blanket.
Truth is, yes, he gets a sweet deal out of it, if he complies with the simple requirements of paying a fine, and doing the rehab program for a year and a half, he will have the charge either sealed or expunged from his record.
By the way, Limbaugh willingly turned himself in, Cops and or DEA did NOT go in and raid his mansion or the EIB building. Get that outta yer head right now cause that's simply not the truth. Now, if Limbaugh didn't turn himself in, he wouldn't be able to get this sweet deal of his.
Mefustae, if you're serious about your question.. Rush Limbaugh is a republican talk show host, which is the #1 talk show broadcast in this country. He used to be on television back in the early 90's, but only does radio now. Pro republican, anti democrat, anti liberal talk show host.
I think it's too good. I believe there's something behind the scenes here. Other people have been scarred for life over less serious charges. I, myself do not listen to Limbaugh anymore. Ever since Bush has been president, he's said some things that I just not agree with. Recently though, I was listening in on the radio show and I heard him talking about how Gas prices absolutely must be higher than they are today. He also has no consideration for poor people in this country, thinking that anyone can go out and get a 5.15/hr job and still pay for gas when it reaches 4-5$ a gallon. Limbaugh IS a mouthpiece for the Republican party. Though I would not call him a true conservative, his values seem to be wherever Bush's values are. As Michael Savage pointed out on his show yesterday, it makes you wonder if he's saying what he is because of all the pills he's taken. If he's doped up on painkillers while doing his radio show, that might explain why he says the things he does, because he's off in la-la land due to the painkillers.
With that said, a much better radio talk show though that I like much more than any conservative host would be Michael Savage. Sure, he yells and screams, and he wishes America was like it was in the 50's, but at least he's critical of BOTH sides, and critical of Bush an awful lot. Savage is an independent conservative, and doesn't give a **** about who or what's in power or popular to talk about, he tells it as it is, and lets the listeners decide.

The Republican party hasn't been conservative in any meaningful sense of the words in years.
-
As an aside, I can't help but laugh when Americans moan about petrol prices....

Are you on drugs, or do you actually believe that bull**** that he says?

He's also an idiotic sensationalist. One of his books is titled "Liberalism is a mental disorder". I was reading the inside cover excerpts and couldn't figure out if it was meant to be bad humor or was the writing of a madman.
I'm not sure if he understands the Constitution either. He apparently supports the Sedition Act of 1918 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sedition_Act_of_1918) and wants it to be re-introduced. His reason? He wants to censor popular news sources like ABC and CBS.

For the record, yes I was serious, as I don't listen to all that much American radio, what with my living on another continent and all.
And thankyou, that explanation reminded me...

Too bad nobody busted into his house to arrest him... that would've been sweet. I can see the SWAT team now...
