Sources: Limbaugh Rushed To Honolulu Hospital
Conservative Radio Show Host Suffering From Chest Pains

POSTED: 4:20 pm HST December 30, 2009
UPDATED: 5:08 pm HST December 30, 2009

HONOLULU -- Conservative radio talk host Rush Limbaugh was rushed to a Honolulu hospital on Wednesday afternoon with chest pains, sources told KITV.

Paramedics responded to the call at 2:41 p.m. at the Kahala Hotel and Resort.

Limbaugh suffered from chest pains, sources said. Paramedics treated him and took him to Queen's Medical Center in serious condition.

He was seen golfing at Waialae Country Club earlier this week. The country club is next to the Kahala Hotel and Resort.

The radio show host had been in the islands during the holidays. Coincidentally, his visit comes at a time when two of the nation's most powerful Democrats, President Barack Obama and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, are also staying in Hawaii.

In 2001, Limbaugh received a cochlear implant after he suddenly lost hearing due to autoimmune inner ear disease. Limbaugh underwent treatment in 2003 for an addiction to prescription painkillers, including Lorcet, Norco and hydrocodone.

wow, prayers for him.

[tonymctones]

im not nor have I ever been a fan of limbaughs but I hope he is ok, I could only imagine the litany of celebrations that the liberals will have if he kicks the bucket.

Hope he is ok.  I have listened to him since 1996. 

[The True Adonis]

I hope he recovers.  I think he is amusing and highly talented at what he does.  If you ever watch him being interviewed outside of his day job, you get the clear sense that his radio persona is a farce.  Besides, Republicans don`t really take him serious anyways.

I agree Ive heard his show from time to time and seen him outside of his show is they are almost night and day.

some ppl do take him very very serious adonis this is one of the things that turned me off of him. Its ok if you take what he says with a grain of salt but some take him at his word.

When you sell your soul to the devil...
Don't know what is going in with him, didn't he have gastric bypass surgery as well? Too much is going on with him when it comes to his health. Which shows the fallacy of thinking money can buy good health.

If his radio and personal personas are diff, it clearly shows why he doing what he's doing, money, fame...and what is the cost...

12. He probably had a heart attack when he saw Obama's birth certificate.
 If he didn't check out Obama's birth certificate what legitimate excuse would there be for him not checking it out while in Hawaii?

21. I was thinking the same thing. He has no problems getting the best of
 care in the ER and beyond. I bet some poor schlub with a broken leg had to wait his turn while Rushbo and his great insurance went to the head of the line.

DU really is a vile place of communists, marxists, cry babies, left wing leeches, etc.

I go there sometimes to see their reaction to stuff, but by and large I can only take about two minutes of that left wing filfth.

Not really.

People are always sardonic or sarcastic in these type of instances.

[240 is Back]

i like DU, as well as FR.

Half of the time, they're both right.
Half of the time, they're both whiny drama queens who exaggerate.

Both offer interesting articles and viewpoints.

Every topic over there always results in people screaming for more free crap from the govt.

[240 is Back]

"Every topic over there always results in people screaming for more free crap from the govt."

Yep.  On every thread, you have some people doing that.  And, on every FR thread, you likely have someone referring to the Obama birth certificate or blaming libs for everything wrong with america.

It's the nature of message boards.  80% moderates, 10% extreme left, and 10% extreme right.

We could surely benefit by becoming more Norwegian which is considered the very best country to live in.  In fact, their average income is nearly TWICE of the average American.

UPDATE: 11:29 PM EST -- Sources inside the hotel report the hotel took drastic measures to get the mystery patient -- reported to be Rush Limbaugh -- out of the resort without being seen.

Hotel security reportedly shut down a wing of the hotel and the guest elevators -- the patient was transported using the employee elevator bank.

On average they make $11,000 more a year than Americans, But it costs nearly a arm and a leg for things like cars. For instance a a $90,000 Porsche could in theory after taxes and registrationcost very well over $180,000. Also if you mod your car, you pay $100 for every horsepower your car makes over stock. If the cops think your car is modded, they have it dynoed. Try enforcing that in the States. Also doing 80kph in a 50kph zone is a $1,000 fine.

The more misery/pain/suffering he can endure while alive the better as far as I'm concerned......I hope he lives a long time

Praying for someones death is something that only the Repubs seem to do
