When it's the same color pill as OxyContin:

You'll recall that last night I wrote about how this Rush Limbaugh story seems to be missing some key fact. Why would they detain him at the airport for three hours just for having a vial of Viagra? Well, one of our readers weighs in.

Perhaps this might explain some confusion you have with Rush's pills "labeled as Viagra": Viagra are blue pills. Zoloft is also a blue pill. Xanax in the higher doses are blue pills. Oh, and what color is Oxy-Contin? Yes: Blue. You're right that there well may be something more here.

and what is the Dr's name who aided and abetted Limbaugh?

1. Sorry to say but the bills are pretty easy to differ between

Shapes are different and the labels are pretty obvious

5. You are assuming that the drugs are legal drugs not black market drugs.

If I was to make OxyContin, forming it into a viaga shape would allow them to go undetective in most inspections....

6. For all we know they were Pez Candies too

I just think this is a bad stretch and reads far too much into it for what it's worth

7. Maybe and maybe not...

remember we are talking about a VERY RICH drug addict here.

IMHO it was the big V and Boner boy was down in DR for the cheap women and maybe boys...

2. BIG stretch!

Viagra pills have a distinctive shape, and the Pfizer name etched right into them. In fact, I think even the shape of the pill is a trademark. They look nothing like an Oxy, and the blue ones you mentioned aren't even the same shade of blue. I think you're looking for too much. I think it's more like, fat pig-boy is a perv -- as seems to happen to old rich white men who think they rule everything -- and was in the DR looking for sordid nookie with questionable characters. I think his actions are stupid enough as it is without trying to go all conspiracy theory on this one!

3. Not all OxyContin tabs are blue.

Some are pink, some are white, some are green, depends on the dosage. The blue one has the highest dosage:



Here's a Viagra tab:



and Zoloft (these can also be green):



and Xanax:



It is possible Rush may have had some other stuff in the bottle, but drug companies mark their products to say what they are (as you can see in the pics), so it shouldn't have been too difficult to figure out.

4. Surely his current actions justify a "random" drug test?
