More Limbaugh and Illeagal Prescriptions

"WEST PALM BEACH Sources have confirmed to CBS4 News that conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh has been detained at Palm Beach International Airport for the possible possession of illegal prescription drugs Monday evening. Limbaugh was returning on a flight from the Dominican Republic when officials found the drugs, among them Viagra."
It's not that important, but a good laugh at the hypocracy of the neo-cons. The question is floating around the internet, who was the 3 times divorced Rush sleeping with in the Dominican Republic? No female was accompanying him on his private plane.

Perhaps?

"Sex tourism" in Dominican Republic, ugh... As if the IMF/WB-fueled poverty there weren't enough! I guess it's not a far stretch from seeing communities and workers as mere commodities to seeing women's bodies as mere commodities.

On the relative bright side, perhaps natural selection will help weed out some of the assholes who perpetrate these crimes. From the last paragraph of the wired.com article:

>> "Do I worry about AIDS/HIV? No," quipped "Joe," a [sex tourism website] member who described himself as a well-educated tech professional in his late 40s. "Quite frankly, (I) believe that heterosexual AIDS is hard for a man to contract." <<
