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.
Just before I read your post I was saying the same thing to my husband.
Where the f### is the news? I’m not going to bed without more info!
If they would just limit their loathing to themselves instead of spreading it to everybody and everything, the world would be a happier, safer, more prosperous place....
((((hugs))))

TMZ is working the hotel angle but nothing on Rush’s condition
UPDATE: 11:29 PM EST — Sources inside the hotel tell TMZ the hotel took drastic measures to get the mystery patient — reported to be Rush Limbaugh — out of the resort without being seen.
We’re told hotel security shut down a wing of the hotel and the guest elevators — the patient was transported using the employee elevator bank.
I trust JustLori too.
Some of 'em can but it's not a prerequisite. I'm a transcriptionist and I deal with them spelling words they think I might not know quite incorrectly.
I am doing the same thing - sitting right here at this computer until I hear he is OK. I couldn’t sleep now if I tried.
Just appeared on Drudge. Link to Breitbart;

Yes, he’s in STABLE CONDITION, which means he’s NOT IN ANY LIFE THREATENING DANGER!
THanks,happy new year as well. I will be praying all night.
IF I read & remember correctly, an EMT said that Rush had initially been in serious condition, upon delivery to the hospital -— HOWEVER, we all know how FACTS get lost in the thick of the first few hours of any event, so really, who knows if it did originate from the EMT -— perhaps the comments were in posting number 285, or near there.
Oh, I hear ya. This western girl feels the same way!
I think RUSH 24-7 Members should be the first to know of any news... ;)
In my area of the country it was leather boat shoes with no socks...everyone wore them. I dont think one can find boat shoes anymore. Topsiders.
CNN now reporting live from the hospital...nothing new.
