Chloe slipped it into his bag!
Rush busted for drug possession. He had
(are you sitting down?)
a bottle of viagra! Throw him in jail!
Rush Limbaugh was detained for about 3 1/2 hours at Palm Beach International Airport after authorities said they found a bottle of Viagra in his possession without a prescription.
The 55-year-old radio commentator's luggage was examined by U.S. Customs and Border Protection after his private plane landed at the airport around 2 p.m. from the Dominican Republic, said Paul Miller, spokesman for the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office.
Customs officials found in Limbaugh's luggage a prescription bottle labeled as Viagra, a prescription drug that treats erectile disfunction, Miller said.
"The problem was that on the bottle itself was not his name, but the name of two Florida doctors," Miller said.
This sounds like a problem that will be solved with a call to his doctors. Was Laura Ingraham and Mark Levin down there in the Dominican Republic with Rush? They had guest hosts the since Thursday as well. Here is Rush's attorney's statement:
Roy Black, Rush Limbaugh's attorney, issued the following statement today in response to several inquiries by the media:
While going through routine Customs inspection of luggage at Palm Beach International Airport upon his return from an international trip, Rush Limbaugh was detained by customs agents after they noticed a non-narcotic prescription drug, which had been prescribed by Mr. Limbaugh's treating physician but labeled as being issued to the physician rather than Mr. Limbaugh for privacy purposes. After a brief interview, Mr. Limbaugh was permitted to continue on his journey.
Seeing as how Air America interns probably rummage through his trash on a daily basis and that Keith Olbermann probably sits outside his house with binnoculars, I totally believe this privacy claim here.

Hey, anything to embarrass him. The guy on the morning radio show I listen to sometimes kept saying, "What's the big deal?" as he continued to discuss it...

His hometown radio station explained that viagra was used for "erectile disfunction", the sad part is I would bet 60% of the county uses it. It has a lot of old retired people.
