LIMBAUGH TARGETED BY CUSTOMS FOR HIS POLITICAL ORIENTATION?

BUMPED TO TOP WITH UPDATE

Popular conservative radio personality Rush Limbaugh relates his shocking airport customs experience here. h/t: NealeNews.com

"There's an inbound list [of private passengers] and they know who's coming in that day. It's required by law. So, somebody in there knew I was coming in and from what I was told from people that were there during the time that I was there, mine was the only luggage that was searched. In fact they didn't search the luggage, they just searched my briefcase and the little white bag and they made me open my computer.

(...)

"She pulls out this bottle and says with 25 people in the room, 'What have we here?! Viagra!' she shouts. 'And look, it's not your name on the bottle! This is a crime! This is a violation of law!' She's shouting this all over the Customs Office, and the whole room has come to a dead stop."

Limbaugh says it wasn't until the case was turned over to the Palm Beach County sheriff's office that he was able to finally leave the airport, noting, "What happened is that somebody, and I assume it's at Customs, leaked this. How else is this discovered? ... I think this was leaked before I got out of there. It was in the news before I actually was in the car on the way home."

It looks to me that Mr. Limbaugh was singled out on the basis of his political orientation as a conservative, which, when I last checked, is something protected by the U.S. Constitution.

It certainly looks as if certain Customs agents deliberately singled out Mr. Limbaugh for "special treatment".

Now... imagine the shit hitting the fan all over the world if a Muslim traveller was treated in this manner! The left and the MSM would be screeching "racial profiling". The President would be forced to apologize or something.

Is it ok to discriminate against people for having and expressing conservative political opinions? I say it's not!

The overzealous Customs agent(s) should be fired for such unwarranted "special" treatment.

I wonder what, if anything, the ACLU has to say? Probably nothing... they're probably too busy looking for more Ten Commandments tablets, crosses and pictures of Jesus to sue to have taken away... they couldn't be bothered to actually come to the aid of an American citizen who had his civil rights violated.

What does "ACLU" stand for again?


UPDATE:

From the comments thread, read the following exchange between a leftist and myself and you'll see that leftists are indeed hoping that an innocent man has been bad... just because they don't like him, as he's a conservative exercising his civil right to express his opinion... and he's wildly popular, on a $300 million, ten-year radio contract. Leftists are blindly biased, as you can see.

The commentary exchange between "SB" and myself (note that SB offers no evidence to back up his accusations, while I provide evidence proving Mr. Limbaugh has been proven to be innocent according to the law and according to the facts of the matter):


Please...utterly ridiculous. First of Palm Springs isn't exactly a hopping airport, it could have been that they didn't have much of anything else to do. Secondly, anyone else in the terminal could have called the press: porters, airline personnel, another passenger. Thirdly, the manner in which Mr. Limbaugh was carrying the medication was contrary to law. He broke the law!!! An investigation proved that he wouldn't go to jail, but he is some kind of idiot for carrying his medicine like that.

My response:


(...)No. Your statements are false. You only want to believe this.

http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/Articl...ainment&s_name=

"Strumwasser told authorities he "agreed to have his name on the label in an effort to avoid potentially embarrassing publicity for the suspect," according to the state attorney's office filing. "Thus, the medication contained in the subject pill bottle was legitimately prescribed to the suspect by his physician."It is generally not illegal under Florida law for a physician to prescribe medication in a third party's name if all parties are aware and the doctor documents it correctly, Edmondson said."

Also:http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/06072...agra- probe.html

"the Palm Beach County State Attorney's Office said Limbaugh's psychiatrist had agreed to have his name placed on the Viagra bottle, rather than that of his patient, "in an effort to avoid potentially embarrassing publicity.

"Much more:http://ca.search.yahoo.com/searc...t&tab=&ei=UTF-8

So stop being a rabid, brainless anticonservative partisan moonbat and leave the man alone. He did NOTHING WRONG! You're violating his civil rights by attacking a man proven innocent under the law!Go attack the jihadists instead, for they're your real enemy!See, folks... this is how leftists are. You have your proof right here!

Besides, I didn't know that it was illegal to carry your prescription in a piece of luggage. As a matter of true fact, my father carries his asthma medication in a little black bag, which isn't too different from a briefcase, in which Mr. Limbaugh's prescription was. People carry their legally-prescribed medication however they wish. I think it'd be bizarre if there was a law against having one's prescription inside one's luggage/briefcase. Where the feck are we supposed to put the bottle? In our back pocket? Up our ass?

I'd like to see What SB has to say to that! Will SB cite a law specifying the precise manner in which all citizens are required by law to have their legally-prescribed medication on their person? Does it necessarily have to be in one's pocket? Does one have to tape the fecking thing to one's forehead to prove they have no intent of using the pill bottle or aspirator or insulin needle as a weapon?

SHEESH! FOFECKSAKE! LEFTISTS!

Again, the left exposes itself...

Analyzing the Left

Gayle of "My Republican Blog", from Texas, has written this piece with which I agree.

Recommended reading & food for thought.

Is the left selfish? I contend yes. Does the left sometimes commit evil without knowing/intending/understanding? I contend yes. Gayle's post also points thereto.

But a warning to leftists: if you're going to simply troll into Gayle's blog and try to be disruptive rather than civil/constructive in commenting, you might find yourself either deleted or your comment won't even be approved, if moderation is on. Oh, yes. Many of us regular folk, like myself and Gayle, have learned how to keep law and order online so as to prevent leftists from taking over the place on the basis of their sense of entitlement. We do not have to put up with selfish, anal leftists. We know our rights, so if leftists don't respect them, then they have brought whatever ensuing consequences (deletion, banning) upon themselves. It isn't acceptable in polite, civil society to barge into peoples' homes and insult them... same thing with their blogs.

Which reminds me of the very first leftist I banned. Calls himself "Don". He did nothing but say I'm wrong/delusional/stupid and make vulgar personal insults as if the Charter guaranteed his "right" to do so. His false sense of entitlement (oh, and he's a longtime, never-say-die, big-L Liebrano, big surprise) led to his being banned from commenting here. To this day, the things he says about me... one gets the impression that he literally hates me, either due to my not acquiescing to his brand of ideological dogmatism (Liebranoism) or to my justly banning him (does he not accept my right to enjoy my own blog and have rules and have my wishes respected?).

"Don" is a prime example of entitlist leftists, for he's a rabid loyalist of the Liberal Party of Canada, the party of ADSCAM, the party of David "I'm entitled to my entitlements" Dingwall, the party of political expediency, the party who only does things with a cynical, greedy view to getting votes to get and stay in power so they can exploit Canada and Canadians and use their power to run a massive money-laundering scheme on behalf of themselves and their cronies/comrades.

I believe that leftists, while believing that they mean well, are actually causing harm rather than helping humanity. They believe that just because millions of other leftists keep saying that what they do, what they believe, etc. is altruistic, then they must be doing good. But they're often greedy money grabbers in delusional denial. There's no honor nor goodness in doing personally financially enriching things on the dogmatic, delusional belief that they're doing good for humanity.

One of the raisons d'etre of The Canadian Sentinel is to expose the left so as to perhaps minimize the harm they can do to the world and to innocent folks due to their selfishness and false sense of philanthropy/altruism (taking other peoples' money, giving a little to some other folks and keeping the rest for themselves and their pet projects). Leftists are frequently empty inside, void of a telos, therefore they make up a whole artificial belief/value system, go out of their way to impose it on the world and demand the world accept their dogmas as true and as the only "good" system. We've seen this most blatantly in the Liberal Party of Canada.

Funny... the left reminds me of communists and Islamofascists. No wonder leftists relate to such fellow dogmatic travellers as the communists and to the jihadists and always try to frustrate free enterprise (with high taxes) and the war on jihad.

Leftism is a mental disorder, a disease of which, for the sake of humanity, we must now proceed to cure.

UPDATE:

Might I recommend the following book: Leaving the Left, which is scheduled to be released in October and can be pre-ordered (link at the bottom of that page). The author, Keith Thompson's blog is: http://sanenation.blogspot.com/

Listen up, everyone: it's ok to leave the left. No one has to be a leftist. No one has to submit to any intimidation by the left to acquiesce to its radical dogmas. I personally left the left long ago and have absolutely no regrets, for it's a far better life to understand reality, understand oneself and, as a consequence, be more in control of one's own life and be happier overall. It's about self-determination, as opposed to the collectivism and submissiveness of leftism.

Whoever in their right mind could oppose self-determination?

ANOTHER UPDATE: Gayle has made a new, to-be-classic, quotation which is perfect:

If I thought everyone should agree with me I would be a liberal!

Destitute NK Steals China's Trains

No kidding. North Korea, with its crumbling economy and restless citizenry, has stolen trains belonging to China, which had brought humanitarian aid to the reclusive rogue dictatorship of Kim Jung Il.

Read about it here. h/t: FreeRepublic

You know... I'm beginning to think that perhaps Kim Jung Il is actually a complete whackjob of a totally-gone nutcase.

What was he thinking, stealing China's trains?

Oh, dear... I certainly hope he's so messed mentally that he gave orders to his scientists to develop NK's WMD technologies in a manner which would render them virtually worthless (this week's failed missile launches point to this very well). Perhaps the nuclear warhead technology is similarly duddy. Perhaps the NKers will blow themselves up by accident, thanks to that foolish-jumpsuit-clad, incessantly clapping, frizzy-headed, four-eyed, pathetic little egotistical monster of a man and his insane way of running things.

Perhaps little fat Kimmy will make a big fat whoopsie? And if he survives, will he just shrug, say, "Sorry. I goofed." and return to his stupid clapping?


Below: Newman, Jerry Seinfeld's arch nemesis. The Kimmy lookalike may have seemed evil, but he, like Kimmy above, was merely an incompetent fool who was always jealous of the smarter, more successful Seinfeld. His harebrained schemes to "get" Jerry invariably ended in hilarious, pathetic failure. Like, for example, Kimmy's failed launch of the missiles earlier this week. Kim Jung Il is to George W. Bush as Newman was to Jerry.

This is scary, isn't it?

NORTH KOREA FIRES MISSILES

Story here. h/t: National Terror Alert

That's a serious provocation.

Not since the Cuban Missile Crisis has there been such provocation to the United States and the Free World.

Three missiles were fired. The first is suspected to be a long-range ICBM, a Taepodong-2, while the others are apparently scud-type missiles.

However...

The first missile turned out to be a dud, apparently, and the other two splashed into the sea.

Rather makes Kim Jung Il look like quite the pussy, doesn't it? Big, scary missiles... but he can't get them up! Perhaps he could use some Levitra?

Although this is indeed a serious matter, it can't hurt to heap ridicule upon that frizzy-headed little turd of a man, so everyone... let's clap in applause for his impressive showing today.

Feckin' A, Kimmy! Jolly good show, you little four-eyed frizzhead! We're soooo a-shakin' in awe at your sheer superiority on the world stage!

Meanwhile... America gets it up on Independence Day! Yeah! See, old Kimmy, America's better than you! Nyah, nyah, nyah! They can get it up; you can't!

Are You a Leftist? A Test

Here's a test for everyone to take so they can determine whether they're leftist.

Yes, you have to take it! So go right ahead! If you don't, then you're a leftist!

If you find any of the statements at the link to be true for yourself, you are a leftist and will have to feel great shame!

Myself? Of course I took the test. And I'm pleased to announce that I'm not a leftist.

What about you?

HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY, AMERICA!

Oh! say, can you see, by the dawn's early light,

What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?

Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight,

O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?

And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,

Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there.

Oh! say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave,

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

On the shore, dimly seen thro' the mist of the deep

Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,

What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep.

As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?

Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,

In full glory reflected, now shines on the stream

'Tis the star-spangled banner. Oh! long may it wave

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

And where is that band who so vauntingly swore

That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion

A home and a country should leave us no more?

Their blood has washed out their foul footstep's pollution.

No refuge could save the hireling and slave

From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave,

And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand

Between their loved homes and the war's desolation,

Blest with victory and peace, may the Heaven - rescued land

Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.

Then conquer we must, for our cause is just,

And this be our motto --"In God is our trust."

And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

NORAD Goes to Higher Alert

Story here. h/t: Drudge.

Could be something to do with North Korea's ICMBs. Does the administration see something coming?

Could it be Iran-related? Or related to some nation from which we don't expect an attack, at least not for a longer time?

Could also have to do with an asteroid, which is expected to come very close to Earth, about as close as the moon is. A collision with Earth isn't expected, but that's only the scientific prediction for now.

Do read the story at the link for more.

But at least the authorities are paying attention to real threats and taking precautionary measures, even if the left could care less!

HAPPY CANADA DAY!

Myself, I have spent it with family.

Family is important. It is the foundation of civilization. And of Canada.

Hope y'all enjoyed Canada's birthday!

Libs $34,818,257.32 in Debt

... According to Liberal Sheila Copps.

According to Elections Canada, in their last annual filing, the Liberal Party of Canada was $34,818,257.32 in debt, by way of 13 bank loans.

But the Liberals won't admit it now. Why? To try to fool Canadians who don't already know the truth into thinking that the LPC is doing all right financially?

For Your Information.

Remember that.

And think of how they came to owe so much so quickly.

If they'd do it to themselves, what's stopping them from doing it to Canada's finances, should they ever come to power again (scary thought, isn't it?)?

No wonder the Liberals are demonstrating such sheer desperation these days.

I say it's time to put the Liberal Party of Canada to rest and let a new party or parties take its place. That would be a natural, beneficial happenstance. After all, look at what happened to the old Progressive Conservative Party: it shattered into pieces and came back together again in a new entity: the Conservative Party of Canada, which governs currently and is, according to more than 40% of Canadians, doing a good job as government.

As currently constituted, the LPC is incapable of building a governing alternative ever again... it's too thoruoghly disgraced as is. No potential leader worthy of taking on Prime Minister Stephen Harper will touch the LPC leadership contest with a ten-foot pole. That speaks very loudly as to the worth of the LPC today and in the future.

The Liebrano$$$ are just making fools of themselves. No wonder they're having such great trouble raising donations. Who in their right mind would give money to them?

They just don't know when to quit!
