JULY 6--Rush Limbaugh was traveling with four other men--including the producers of the hit show "24"--when he was detained over a mislabeled bottle of Viagra found in his luggage during a Customs search. A Department of Homeland security passenger manifest shows that Limbaugh and his four buddies flew from the Dominican Republic on a Gulfstream IV jet owned by Premiere Radio Networks, which syndicates his radio program. Limbaugh returned to Palm Beach, Florida on June 26 with Joel Surnow, "24"'s co-creator and executive producer and Howard Gordon, another of the Fox hit's executive producers (Hollywood agent Jeffrey Benson was also part of the Limbaugh quintet). With all those guys in tow, it is unclear what Limbaugh needed with those 29 100mg Viagra pills. The passenger manifest was among several documents released today by the Palm Beach County State's Attorney in response to a TSG open records request. Included in the material released were a copy of the handwritten statement Limbaugh provided investigators after he was detained upon the discovery of the impotency drug. An affidavit sworn three days later by Limbaugh was also released. In that document, Limbaugh explains that the Viagra "was intended for my exclusive use" and that the drug had been prescribed in the name of his drug treatment doctor, Steven Strumwasser, "to further maintain and protect my privacy."

"Wasn't there some heart medication that was remarketed for erectile disfunction?"
Yes, viagra.
Sue them for libel. That'll teach them.
Enron got so much press for bad deeds that they changed their name.
I have bottle of asprin in my travel bag that must be ten years old.
So what does that prove?
30 according to Rush. Prescribed in January of this year.
What "stuff"?
It is bullZogby. The press makes things up (just as Zogby biased his "Kerry wins" polling figures).
Viagra should hire Rush to do ads for them. Vile lefties, they will stoop so low to bring someone down.
Rush,
I gotta side with Trump on this issue. If you need Viagra ... you're with the wrong woman(s).
Dittos though!
Viagra was originally created as heart medication.
NICE RIDE !
30
It's an embarrassment for Mr. Limbaugh -- I think most folks know exactly what activities he had in mind when he packed his bottle of Viagra.
I read there were thirty originally in the prescription. He had used one between the time of the original prescription (last winter maybe?) and the Custom's search. When and where is unknown, but probably was not on the Dominican Republic trip. Remember he was surrounded by all those good looking ladies on one of his golf outings earlier this year.
Talk about media complicity...I remember nothing about who (read: how many wimmins) else was there; but I do recall thinking that his knee injury was consistent with falling because your pants are down around your ankles.
Note to self, read all post before answering question.
rush SAID ON HIS SHOW: 30
"So Chloe didn't go along?"
She actually smiled in year 3.
He went on at length about it in one of his books.
He also mentioned muttering some obscene things in the Mr. Magoo shorts (generally edited out) and his idea of an X-rated Mr. Magoo feature around the time of Fritz the Cat where Magoo wanders into a red light district and reinterprets his surroundings.
30 pills perscribe years ago. ONE pill used.
Seems the smoking gun needs a viagra pill for their lead.
Seriously, this incident shows customs is compromised in Palm Beach because it can be USED for political reasons rather than real security.
HELLO?!!! homeland security! security breach WPB!!!! hello!!!!!!!!!!
(they must be on the mexico border looking for the illegal penguin importers)
