Why should the "law" be applied any differently to him?
Get a freaking grip, Shermy.
Unfortunately, Shermy is dead right. I like Rush and would be the last to want him convicted of an idiotic conoction like this, but the fact remains that since you drug warriors decided to make "money laundering" of exactly this type an illegal activity, you're going to have to bend over and kiss the jackboots of any pissant prosecutor who decides to pad his budget by stealing Rush's earnings.
Federal law requires that money transfers of $10,000 or more be reported as suspicious activity. What they're trying to pin on Limbaugh is something they call "structuring", or making transactions of less than $10K ythat are intended to evade the $10K limit. That's right - it's illegal to transfer $10K or over at a time, and it can also be illegal to transfer less tha that amount if they decide that it's lucrative to make an issue of it.
I hope the JBT's try to nail Rush with this. I want to see his whole fan base rise up against confiscation without due process.
