The prosecution of Rush Limbaugh is starting to look more and more like a witch hunt every day. So far, they've offered immunity to his housekeeper, who was allegedly extorting thousands of dollars from him. ([sarcasm]Gee, she sure sounds credible.[/sarcasm] When is her book coming out again?) They have also gone on a fishing expedition with his private medical records to see if he's done anything wrong. (So much for the Fourth Amendment protection from unreasonable searches and seizures.)

Now the AP reports that prosecutors have turned down a plea deal with Limbaugh. Instead of putting him in a drug intervention program (to treat his illness) they are instead asking him to plead to felony charges. And of course, they are also deliberately leaking information to the press. I'm trying to keep from sounding biased or sound like I'm being soft on Limbaugh, but considering they have yet to even charge him with anything, the prosecution's zeal seems rather fishy.
