Just Wow. For those that were listening, it was one of the most facinating exchanges between a listener and Rush Limbaugh. Rush was speaking to an out-of-work grandmother who loves Pittsburg, and used to live there when Rush was working at a local radio station. She said that she couldn't afford the trip up, and was nearly indigent, and Rush is going to get her and her son a hotel room, a ride from their home in FL to Tampa for the Super Bowl.
Glenn Beck was near to tears on his show earlier today, and now this overwhelmed grandmother breaks down on Rush. Tear-jerker Friday. Here's the difference between conservatives and liberals, folks...conservatives are generous with their OWN time and money (Rush, Hannity, Beck; even O'Reilly), whereas communist liberals want to 'give' with money stolen from others.
NOTE TO RUSH: I’ve never been to a Hanna Montana concert...
The liberals will try to tax the tickets, hotel, and transport as income.
LOL..>NOTE TO RUSH....LOL!
“RUSH GIVES TICKETS TO A GRANDMOTHER AND FAMILY”....
...”...NEWS AT 9!!!....”
If you believe we see that headline then I have some ocean front property in MO I want to sell ya!
LOL! So freakin’ true.....
It was great....I’ll bet he sends a car to pick them up from somewhere too....but, we won’t hear about it.
I’m pretty sure that there will be a sizable check in with the tickets for “travel expenses” along with a letter requesting she keep the amount confidential. Limbaugh typically works his charity off the radar screen of the media.

Reverse Petition: Stand Strong FOR Rush Limbaugh
To:The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee
Stop distorting Rush Limbaugh’s comments about President Obama’s war on prosperity.
I agree with Rush’s assessment that President Obama’s far left liberal vision for America is bad for America, and I too, hope that he fails, because when liberalism fails, America wins.
Heck Rush could have gotten off cheap with me. I would have said on Super Bowl day, me and my family will be BBQing turkey franks for the game. *wink, wink*, I would have been fickled tink with a little Allen Brothers.
LOL! This is great that this woman will be able to see this game.
Unlike the Hollywood left that attends the latest disease dinner so they can secure a photo op followed by a well rehearsed comment.....
Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong, but she didn't personally give them away (like with her money covering the cost of the cars), she only did it on her show for the car company...AND you are right, the recipients were to pay the taxes, title, license, etc. THIS cost Oprah nothing at all! And she could have afforded it a billion times over and then some!
Me too.
>>THAT EEEEEVIL REPUBLICAN! HOW DARE HE FORCE THIS WOMAN OUT OF HER HOME<<
Remember the incident when Patsy Shroder, the lib from Colorado actually believed Rush’s mother was eating dog food? Rush had said he got his mother a can opener so she could open her cans of dog food.
~LOL~ wonder if Ralph Nader — who just accused Rush today of being a freeloader — did anything similar? My guess would be — nope!
I remember reading a story about the Tuskegee Airmen.
They were invited to the inauguration by O. They were told to find their own accommodations, make their own way to D.C. and then make their own way to their seats.
Given the age of these men it’s criminal the way they were treated.
That’s the O way.
>>Can you be happy for someone else?<<
Exactly. Some people don’t get it.
Yes. The show got the Pontiacs for free from Pontiac. The mentions on her show were more than worth it.
Rush made it clear that the GMC was out of HIS pocket as are the Super Bowl tix. If he got his for free the negative publicity would’ve been unbelievable and he knows it.
To me, the bottom line is character. Rush is a class act and an honest person. I don’t believe for one minute that Oprah would’ve voluntarily bought those cars out of pocket.
Actually this was a kind gesture and I missed that part of the show today. Way to go Rush!
