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.

I haven’t been able to listen much lately...only I did catch him before Christmas and he seemed his jovial self. I was in the car with my dad who said—Hey! Let’s listen to “El Rush-o.”

A physician should at least be able to SPELL!!!! Get outta here!

Not necessarily. One of the smartest people I ever knew couldn't spell at all. Every time he wrote a tricky word, he spelled it differently.

LOL. Art Bell is a weird little guy. I’ve met him in person. At one time, he was a conservative, then he whacko. I used to call the show during the time when he was a conservative...lol.

Your son felt the prayers and he healed. I wish everyone could heal, but it’s not possible.

Take your time Rush, I agree. And to others - let us not stoop to the left’s hate - it is their trademark - and albatross.
May God be with Rush.

Lefty tweeters are hoping Rush gets a black doctor?

I advise everyone here to stop worrying about spelling, and think about the serious matter of Rush’s health.

BTW: Doctors have some of the worst handwriting, and bad spelling may simply reflect the fact they have more on their minds than typing.

My posts often have spelling errors, because I’m not a very good typist and I often slip and hit post without proofreading.

What bearing does this have on this conversation? Well, I’m a professional magazine editor. And a former newspaper reporter. And a historian. And one of my humanities papers is now used by my professor as a model for students on how to write a humaities paper.

Unless you’ve got more than that, I’d holster the accusations, Lori.

We’re told hotel security shut down a wing of the hotel and the guest elevators...

I don't think the hospital will even confirm that Rush has been admitted. The initial report seems to be all from the hotel and paramedics, or someone who observed Rush being taken from the hotel.

I'm fairly sure the next of kin must authorize any release of information by the hospital, even his admission.

Could the hospital be waiting for someone from Rush's family to arrive before speaking to the media?

My stomach just turned to ice. Don't even say that!

I'm sorry! I didn't mean like "next of kin". I just meant since he is a celebrity, the hospital would want someone from Rush's family to make the first statement about his condition.
