DID RUSH LIMBAUGH RAPE A CHILD IN THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC?
In which Rush Limbaugh the obese drug addict sex tourist accuses Democrats of being “rapists
Oh dear. Rush Limbaugh’s projection problem is back. It’s sad to see an obviously sick man accusing others of rape, when his own personal history is questionable to say the least.
Rush Limbaugh could see a deal with prosecutors in a long-running prescription fraud case collapse after authorities found a bottle of Viagra in his bag at Palm Beach International Airport. The prescription was not in his name.
Limbaugh was detained for more than three hours Monday at the airport after returning from a vacation in the Dominican Republic. Customs officials found the Viagra in his luggage but his name was not on the prescription, said Paul Miller, a spokesman for the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office.
The Smoking Gun has the affidavit itself.
“What’s so incriminating about that?” you ask. “A lot of people use Viagra, and obtain it illegally.” That is true: but not everyone is caught with illegally obtained Viagra on their way back from the Dominican Republic, one of the world’s most popular sex tourism destinations:
That’s hardly specific to the Dominican Republic. Plug “adult travel” into a search engine and you’ll find dozens of membership-based sites where men around the world swap information on prostitutes, brothels and the price of oral sex in Brazil or Cuba.
The pricing schemes vary, but the content is the same. It’s a war of sex-oriented bragging: Members send in their R-rated travel reports in which they boast about the number of women they’ve “nailed,” including naked photographs of their conquests. They share tips and warnings, such as this post from a tourist who visited Boca Chica, a beachside town in southern Dominican Republic:
“If you go there, beware of a girl named Caroline. Bad, bad news: underage, pregnant and on drugs….”
And as you might expect, in a country like the DR, poverty is rampant and children work as prostitutes. From the same article:
In the Dominican Republic, as in many developing countries, many women are driven to sell their bodies by poverty and lack of alternatives. It is a profession that is illegal but tolerated by local authorities, who accept kickbacks to turn a blind eye to the seedier side of tourism.
In Puerto Plata there are so many streetwalkers competing for the attention of vacationers that one hair stylist said she doesn’t leave her home after dark because she doesn’t want to be mistaken for a puta. In the town’s discos, bars and restaurants, solitary women stare suggestively at male tourists or rub up against them like cats.
“I don’t have an education, and I’ve got two children,” shrugged 15-year-old Belkis as she slinked along the busy beach promenade here in a hot pink Lycra dress. “Where else can I make such good money? To be a prostitute, you don’t need schooling, all you need is your body.”
Did Rusty actually fuck children when he was in DR? I don’t know. I wasn’t invited on the trip. But according to a report by ECPAT International, it is not outside the realm of possibility:
Prostitution is illegal in the Dominican Republic and the age of sexual consent is 18, but child prostitution is a visible and growing phenomenon. The UNICEF report on the problem estimates that there are now at least 25,000 children involved in the sex trade in the Dominican Republic, of whom 63% are girls (UNICEF, 1994). Though there is, and has always been, some local demand for child prostitutes, it is tourism that has fuelled the rapid growth of this market for children bodies.
That’s 15,750 underaged girls working as prostitutes. A simple google search brings up more results than you can count.
No matter where you go, having sex with an underaged partner is considered rape, even if the sex is consensual, as Marcus Dixon will tell you.
Am I claiming that Rush Limbaugh rapes children? No. But I am claiming that someone who gets caught with a suitcase full of illegally obtained Viagra on his return trip from a renowned sex tourism destination that has a well-earned notoriety for child prostitution, would be well-served to keep his big fat mouth shut when it comes to calling his political opponents “rapists”.
It looks a LOT like projection, and forces people like me to write embarrassing posts like this.

[...] Rush, if someone calls you out for being a sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot, just brush it off, much like you do to the eight pounds of food that drops out of your mouth as you stuff your gullet. Don’t take it personally when someone accuses you of child rape or of drug abuse. [...]
