Limbaugh denies he was arrested.

[Cyrano]

On his Monday radio show, Rush Limbaugh said: "There was no arrest. There were no handcuffs. There was no perp walk. There is no charge."

However, according to a jail official, Limbaugh's surrender on a warrant and his booking at the jail certainly is an arrest. (Story at above link.)

If Limbaugh told his dittoheads that the earth is flat and the moon is made of green cheese, I have no doubt they'd believe him.

I wonder if anyone will ever find a cure for these poor creatures who have surrendered their ability to think to The Great Pig?

[redqueen]

1. I doubt there's any cure besides them pulling their own heads out

of their own rear ends.


It's kinda like addiction... first you have to realize you have a problem.

One would think hearing this whole "I'm not guilty!" "Okay, but I wasn't arrested!" shit would make a good 'bottom' for these folks.

2. "moon is made of green cheese, I have no doubt they'd believe him"

You know it! He has a legion of mindless drones. :dunce:

[Ganja Ninja]

3. How much you wanna bet he's still popping pills?

[Roland99]

4. No arrest, eh?

Of course nowadays all these Republican criminals think they are going to the mall for a Glamour Shot, they don't know how to be embarrassed for themselves.

13. Geez, I thought he was supposed to have lost weight...

...you'd think "hillbilly heroin" would whittle him down a little.

[CPMaz]

25. Thanks.

I'll add it to my collection; so far, I only have Tom Delay's, but I have plenty of hard drive space for Bush's, and Cheney's, and Rove's, and Rice's, and Ney's, and.....

Hey - Duke Cunningham should have one by now. Anybody have a link to it?

[caledesi]

27. "I am ready for my closeup Mr. Deville." And oh, BTW did all

of you notice that the mugshot was cropped, so the black ID card and number wasn't shown. How clever!

edit: grammar

[acmejack]

9. To assume out of custody status

would lead one as unschooled in these matters as myself to imagine that an individual would have had to at one time be classified as "In Custody", of course that is only among us amateurs.

[Roland99]

12. He was for at least an hour. When being booked, one is In Custody

His fingerprints are now in the national database along with millions and millions of other criminals.

[Cyrano]

10. OP link has been corrected.

[Viva_La_Revolution]

16. damn those pesky public records!

Foiled again!

:rofl:

[karlrschneider]

5. If it quacks like a duck...

:eyes:

[MikeNearMcChord]

7. Well what's with the photoshoot with

the Palm Beach County Sheriffs? Was he there to endorse him? Hell even Drudge showed it. I think Rush , is trying to control the damage with shrinking listenership, Hey Rush, nice solidarity with those who desire medical marijuana, you prick!

[Norquist Nemesis]

8. Sure. They take mug shots of everybody and their uncle!

NOT!!!

[ComerPerro]

14. Why wasn't he just locked up a few years ago like the criminal he is?

After all, drug abusers should be punished severly, right Rush?

[librechik]

15. arrest implies he was trying to escape the law illegally

surrender implies he was trying to escape the law legally.

He's not a criminal, he's a weasel.

There is a difference ther to be exploted by ruthless manipulators like Rush. I'm sure most folks were not really fooled, except for the backwash.

[Inland]

23. Hah! that's close...

more like "surrender" means that he was caught without the sweat of a footrace at the end. Being a chubby cigar smoking drug addict means you take a taxi to your own scheduled booking.

[madrchsod]

17. the moon isn`t made out of green cheese?

why didn`t someone tell me....

[Dr Fate]

18. He also swore up and down that Iraq had WMDs n/t

n/t

[Initech]

19. Watch, Rush will blame Clinton for this in 3... 2... 1...

:popcorn:

[Crankie Avalon]

20. Don't forget to vote in the poll at the link ("Did Rush get off too easy")

57 "yes" to 43 "no" so far.

[JohnnyRingo]

21. And he says this deal is proof of his innocence

If he's so innocent why then doesn't he just tell the state to shove the $30,000 up their ass?
Why would he put up with monthly drug tests? (from his own Dr)

Oh yeah...He's paying it to save the state from an embarassing and expensive trial.
Ol' patriotic Rush never passes an opportunity to donate extra money to the govt.

[Inland]

22. You mean, he didn't have to go? And could leave any time?

If not, then it's a fucking arrest. Limbaugh, now that he's no longer a criminal defendant, adopts the police BS of "you're not under arrest, really, you're just coming with us and you have no choice". Took about a day for fucker to revert to form.

[Inland]

24. How come they get to SMILE for their mugshots?

I've never been booked, but for passport photos or other ID, you don't get to plaster a big shiteating grin on your face. But these pubbies all get to make PR glossies.

[Norquist Nemesis]

26. I was wondering about that. Came to the conclusion it shows

a absolute contempt for the rule of law as it applies to them. Can you imagine how they would be howling in chorus if one of their targets were cheesing it up for the camera?

[geniph]

28. Gawd, he sounds like a spoiled toddler!

"I did not either get in trouble! Did not! So stop saying that, or I'll hold my breath and turn blue! MOMMMMMMM!"

[walldude]

29. No charge... just pee in this cup... hehe n/t
