Sources: Limbaugh Rushed To Honolulu Hospital
KITV Honolulu ^ | Dec. 30, 2009 | KITV

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.

"He has been complaining of neck ( cervical pain). He said surgery was not possible because the procedure could cause larynx damage."

That is the same problem he had before he went into rehab. He kept calling it back pain and that he choose not to have surgery because they would have to go through his esophogus and he just couldn't take the risk of larynx damage. I think after rehab he learned how to deal with the pain. That is why suddenly when he started complaining last week, I think it was more then just his neck/back problem.

It just took me 10 minutes to find CNN.

I couldn't find it either! I went up from FOX and found the NASA channel and three Cspans.

To be fair, only one of the stories has Obama personally attesting he was born at (X) Hospital, the other claims it on his behalf.

I guess it’s a good sign he was sitting up. I like the Kahala, nice hotel.

Stress takes a toll on all of us. I’m sorry. I’ve had to deal with quite a bit of stress lately. An entirely different story which is still no excuse for rudeness.

I stand by every word I’ve said. I know a phony when I see one, and it’s damn pathetic to use someone else’s trouble in an attempt to glorify yourself.

dear dmd25, it's been an awful night, but Rush is in stable condition now, which means that he's out of any life threatening danger. Most of us, including me have been crying and praying and commiserating here. I won't stop praying and I know I won't sleep well (if at all) tonight, so I'm staying close to the radio and leaving the TV on all night. God speed, dearest you.

Given HIPAA policies, I don’t see how we can know any of this. Wouldn’t a relative have to make the statement - didn’t we truly only know of Michael Jackson’s death when his brother announced it himself?

NO - still no “official” health status - some are saying he’s good - others still report him as serious trouble

no other way to describe it

Yes there is...whether you are a believer in Christ or not we are witnessing Demonic possession(s).. The relentless battle between 'good & evil'. It IS supernatural. No preaching intended here..but that is the only explanation for the absolute insanity (in words AND actions) that we are witnessing.

Well, “stable” is what has been reported and I think we can hold with that overnight.
