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.

If you re-read that comment, I think they meant “scariest time” as in a lengthy amount of time, like the last year we have been through. I don’t think they meant this exact moment with Rush in the hospital.

Dan’s Bake Sale was many, many years ago.

Why isn’t it an annual event, or something similar?
I’d love to rub elbows with my fellow conservatives at an event similar to the legendary Dan’s bake sale in Fort Collins, Colorado. An annual event like this would also piss off the liberals, which would be the icing on the cake as far as I’m concerned.

Prayers for Rush.....I wish he was back home in Florida.

I think that’s the reporter he was posing as at one point.

It’s done ALL the time in FL.

And in the Coachella Valley (Palm Springs, CA area).

Had a psych professor who would wear golf pants and jackets to class. It made it hard to pay attention.

“Oh, for goodness sakes. He was admitted to hospital with chest pains, leftist tweaks are doing what they do and have in fact done to Rush Limbaugh before, this time on Twitter, you’re falling for it and they’re having a field day at your expense.”

You misunderstood what I was trying to say. I didn’t mean Rush’s hospitalization was the scariest time, I meant the Obama Administration! And we need Rush to get us through it.

And again, I don’t believe anyone “fell” for what was going on on Twitter, but heart ailments are serious and who knew what was really happening until we received official word from Rush’s staff?

Precisely. Thank you!

If there was a Rush press conference every alphabet would be there.

The MSM hates Rush, but they know he is big news.

I often watch google trends. The most horrible things happen, the most important legislation passes and it barely registers a blip on google trends. People are more likely to look up a sports figure than “cap and Trade”. On the day the health legislation passed, it read as search #3. (That’s why they can get this stuff through).

Right now, Rush is in the top five searches on google. That’s huge.

“She meant it’s the scariest time with the Obama administration and we don’t want to face the battle ahead without Rush.”

Thank you for helping clear that up! :)

When I saw that on Rush’s site, I actually exhaled and the blood resumed flowing through my veins.

Those were a few minutes that were scarier than anything.

You know how you get dependent on a certain pillow? For me it’s the tempurpedic. Well, if anything ever happened to my precious pillow, I could find another one.

THERE IS NO OTHER RUSH.

How are we going to make sure he is vibrant and around at least until he’s 80?? His grandpa lived to 102 or around there, and that sounds about right.

And the idiot is STILL sticking to his story.

You would think he would stop after Rush’s OWN site stated otherwise.

And this is the same guy who falsely reported that football player’s death 12 hours before he died.

No problem. I had to trace back to see your earlier reply. I had completely missed it. This is a fast moving thread.

Good.
I went to bed early about 8:30 because I feel like I am coming down with something. Came down to get something to drink and it was as if I was in the Twilight Zone.

Seems like he is stable. Now I can exhale :-)

You’re welcome. And, the simple fact of Rush being in the hospital might not be the scariest thing in American history, but it’s in the top ten! ;-D
