Woman wrongfully arrested, forced to listen to Rush Limbaugh (not the Onion)

In a lawsuit filed last week over the Oct. 4, 2010 incident, Bridgett Nickerson Boyd said her trouble began when she noticed her engine steaming and pulled over to the side of the highway, the Houston Chronicle reported. As she was pulling over, sheriff's deputy Mark Goad pulled behind her – and then arrested her for driving on the shoulder.

To make a bad day even worse, her heart began racing dangerously fast and she had to go to the hospital, according to the report. Goad followed her there – and then rearrested her once she was treated.

The final straw came when he then put her in the back of his car and cranked up the conservative talk show host – who was making "derogatory comments about black people" all the way to jail, Boyd charged.

All of the charges against her were almost immediately dismissed by a magistrate.

Damn I miss one day of Rush Limbaugh and he chooses that day to start saying derogatory things about black people. It has to be a day I missed since I have never heard him say anything derogatory against black people.

I'm still wondering how a lady who is arrested at 9 am in Texas can be forced to listen to Rush in a car when he doesn't come on until 11 AM CST.

1. If someone forced me to listen to Limbaugh, I'd want them to get the death penalty. And I am against
   
capital punishment!

2. Waterboarding
   
if there was ever a call for it this would be it. If it was Michael Savage I'd add forcible removal of fingernails.

8. I agree she should get an award, but......
   
it should be no more than say $500,000,000 + legal expenses.

Where does all that money come from?

DUmmy bouncies are like living in 'Toon Town.  The laws of physics/reality that you and I take for granted, either don't apply, or only apply selectively.
