good friggin’ point

From feministe.us/blog:
So Rush Limbaugh was caught at the Palm Beach airport on the way back from the Dominican Republic with Viagra in his suitcase, for which he did not have a prescription (it was made out by his doctor to another doctor, probably to hide the fact that he’s using it). And while it’s fun to snicker about this little development, here’s something that should give us all pause. From commenter amyc at Tbogg’s place:
The Dominican Republic apparently has a booming sex trade (or rape trade, if you’re like me and don’t believe 13-yr-old girls really consent to be whores for rich tourists). As nightmare-inducing as the answers might be, I think The American People need to ask why an unmarried Christian man would take a suitcase full of dick drugs on a Third-World sex tour. (Although perhaps we shouldn’t rule out missionary work.)
Limbaugh joked about the search on his radio show Tuesday, saying Customs officials didn’t believe him when he said he got the pills at the Clinton Library and he was told they were blue M&Ms. He later added, chuckling: “I had a great time in the Dominican Republic. Wish I could tell you about it.”

damn straight, all the freakin’ double standards when it comes to U.S. citizens getting prescription drugs elsewhere(chiefly Canada & Mexico) but “Mr. Conservative Airway” himself gets his ass busted w/ BONER PILLS!!! Lol. I gotta hand it to him, that’s freakin’ scandalous, all this profiteering for the pharmaceutical companies by the Bush Admin. I bet Viagra offers him a commercial

oh yeah, about the sex trade, did you know European women frequent Barbados, Jamaica, and other islands. It’s the “lure of the big bamboo” the myth of black sexual virility, prowess that draws them. There’s beach boys and dreads that flock to the beach to pick up white women. It’s kinda funny since this aspect of the sex trade never gets attention, kinda like male rape, or the psychology behind prison rape being heterosexual domination, the same reason men rape women.
