   Plus which, he said on his show last week that he was going on a “guy’s weekend” to the DR.

   You just gotta love this story!

   By the way- I have to wonder if his doctor broke the law by issuing a prescription for himself to give to Limbaugh?

   My guess is he did. But I have problems with that explanation, knowing that any doctor worth his salt has stacks and stacks of samples, of Viagra and most other high-profit drugs still under patent protection. If he really wanted to preserve delicate Rush’s privacy, he could hand him a bunch of blister packs and tell him to call when he needed more.

   No, I suspect our Rusty is up to shenanigans again.

   My comment on that sentence disappeared. I said this story works for me in so many ways.

   This is just a cockamamie story. He obviously has an ego that compels him to this one-upmanship.

   Odd, I thought more folks would comment on this. Perhaps, not. I mean, at the rate this stuff must be flying off the shelves (just looking at the number of the commercials), a very large percentage of the male population could be using this drug.

   Ewwww.

   But, Nancy. I heard this story breaking on the drive home yesterday. First thing that I said to my wife pretty much mirrored your thoughts. Pure as the wind-driven snow, indeed.

    You know, I think he’d be in even MORE trouble, if he had a controlled substance in blister packs, as opposed to a controlled substance that’s at least in a prescription bottle.

    But leaving that aside – the thing that puzzles me is, why would a guy pack controlled substances, and then face the inevitable airport security checks, for anything less than (say) heart medication? Let alone a guy who is already notorious for substance abuse?

    Why would he not have his cache of little blue pills in PR, and back at home, and in Poughkeepsie for that matter, and then NOT have to carry it hither and thither?

    Actually, the ‘privacy’ dodge makes it the ersatz prescription look all the more like premeditated fraud, since it looks (to me) like a decision WAS made that a prescription bottle was better than a ziplock baggy (or a generic blister pack)…which is all the more curious, give that the lip flapper was ALREADY operating with a legal “mulligan”…(I guess his lips aren’t the only thing on him that ‘flap’)

    Yeah, it looks like stupidity, but I am not as surprised. Afterall, anyone who depends on their hearing for their livelihood and then abuses a drug to the point that his hearing is lost, is pretty stupid.

    He doesn’t depend on hearing. Just talking.

    Brian, did you read that despite his brilliant acting career, he never really lived down his reputation of being a cat murderer. What a conflicted soul he must have been.
