The state Attorney General's Office rebuked a Palm Beach County prosecutor Wednesday for allegedly misrepresenting conversations between the two agencies to make it appear the AG had endorsed releasing sensitive plea-bargain documents about Rush Limbaugh to the public.

Palm Beach County State Attorney Barry Krischer released two pages of plea negotiations with Limbaugh last week in response to a public records request, along with a memo indicating that the agency had been advised by an Attorney General expert that the release was required by public-records law.

The documents show the radio talk-show icon proposing to settle allegations of prescription-drug abuse through treatment, potentially avoiding a permanent criminal record.

Limbaugh's attorney, Roy Black, questioned Krischer's motives and said the release was part of a smear campaign. Prosecutors said they believed they were doing the right thing after consulting the law, the attorney general and the Florida Bar. But there was nothing in writing to support or refute their claim that they were following legal advice from the attorney general.

1. Wow... A "Smear Campaign" Against Limbaugh

A "man" who has been trying to smear every prominent Democrat for years.

El Rushbo is finally getting a taste of his own medicine.

2. Fascinating

that Krischer has "question(able)" "motives", while the Republican Attorney General, apparently, does not.

Actually, it's not fascinating at all.
