Also yesterday, the National Enquirer reported that “the police web is tightening around Rush Limbaugh” and that he could be arrested in days.

Limbaugh’s lawyer, Roy Black, yesterday called the tabloid story “a pure fabrication” and a “thinly veiled attempt to destroy Mr. Limbaugh’s reputation and career.”

If Mr. Limbaugh’s career is indeed ruined by his illegal activity I can’t see how he can blame this on law enforcement. He’s not being challenged because he is an addict, he’s being challenged because he broke the law, it’s as simple as that.

As bad as the drug laws are, they have to be enforced equally. The fact is, anyone else dealing with the number of pills in this case would immediately be charged with distribution. I mean, we’re talking tens of thousands of pills according to the maid that Mr. Limbaugh bought the drugs from. Being rich shouldn’t enter into it, but already people are defending him by saying he had no motive… well, having a motive doesn’t enter into it, it’s still illegal activity.

If Tommy Chong goes to jail for selling bongs on the internet certainly Rush Limbaugh should be punished for putting tens (if not hundreds) of thousands of dollars into the illegal drug trade and supporting terrorism.

Being rich (or a republican) is no excuse for illegal activity.
