I suggest that you spend some time researching documents published by the US government, as well as the UN and other international organizations, on the sex trade. Yes, the DR - and other countries as you point out - have different standards than ours regarding prostitution. That does not alter the fact that children are a large part of the sex trade in the DR, and these children are sold to rich men from rich countries who wouldn't dream of purchasing a child on their home turf. Limbaugh could have gone to Vegas - but he didn't. Why not? The correct application of Ockam's Razor is that he was there for something he couldn't easily get here - or perhaps he needed the anonymity. Limbaugh has had several beautiful wives, and has a beautiful girlfriend HERE. He didn't have to go to the DR for beautiful female companionship, but he did. WHY?
Do you know anything about Limbaugh that has a souce other than the MSM? Have you ever watched him at a media dinner and saw how he completely ignored his wife - as if she literally were not there? (Maureen Dowd had dinner with him once. She said that he treated her as if she literally were not there, and that he was incapable of talking about anything other than himself.) After he was busted several years ago, his then wife (who is a fitness instructor) claimed that she knew nothing about his addictions, and knew nothing about the numerous times he had spent checked into Betty Ford type clinics in an attempt to get cleaned up. It doesn't sound like he had a real marriage. It sounds like these women - and the honey from CNN - are what official Washington calls a beard.
We also know that Limbaugh is a tower of mendacity and hypocrisy; and he sports a head full of bad wiring. The simplest explanation is that Limbaugh has (once again) been caught doing something he shouldn't be doing.
