poor old Rush

I've read that Rush's latest defense against money laundering aalegations is that the money was used to pay blackmail and extortion. Based on that, all those withdrawals of just under the reportable $10,000 limit don't qualify as money laundering.
What ever you say Rush. What a joke...

Did you hear that from Rush himself or is this just something you read?

It says you “read” something. I was trying to give you the benefit of the doubt. In any regards I wouldn’t put to much weight into what you read unless you have other collaborating articles by independent sources other then all liberal publications.

I personally haven’t heard anything about it, either pro or con. Since I have nothing to go by I will say this that anyone paying someone blackmail and extortion money to someone usually has something to hide.

If I was someone like Rush, a huge public figure, and someone was trying to blackmail or extort me I would simple get on my program and make it public at the first mention that someone was trying to damage my reputation. With it out in the open before anyone can actually blackmail or extort you then your possibility that the public will believe you while you prove it out is much greater…

The cover-up or perception of a cover-up is usually always worse then the actual act that one may be trying to cover-up…

If you actually believe that Rush has been laundering money, well I have a pristine 1983 Corvette I'll sell you at a reasonable price.

While never offered to the public, a total of 43 - 1983 model Corvettes were built.

There is only one know to exist at the moment, at the Corvette Museum, until now that is, when the one that Frank S has popped up.

Re: poor old Rush

It's been a tough year for Rush.
It started out with high hopes and kind of crumbled.
Rush has been waiting patiently for the Eagles to collapse so he could at least say, "AH-hah! I told you so!"
but, dang if McNabb didn't just win again.
Oh well, there's always next week.

Actually, he's taking credit for motivating McNabb to perform better. Half jokingly of course.

McNabb, ain't that a stolen burger. No, that's Bulger and he's already out of the playoffs. Oh well, next Sunday the Panthers feast on Eagle. I'm just glad the Panthers aren't playing at home. It really screws up the traffic patterns around the center city.
