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 dont think one can find boat shoes anymore.

Sure you can. Every shoe store around here has them. I wear the things all the time. But I can't stand shoes without socks. It feels creepy to me.

I told one of my friends that that was a distinct possibility. So many of the leftist stooges are in Hawaii right now.

EMS confirms a male was taken from the hotel in serious condition.

I'm skeptical. Paramedics don't assign "serious condition," and HIPAA would prevent them from even discussing it. Sounds like a reporter with Jayson Blair Syndrome.

Yeah, it was a shock. I listened to his program when he talked about Ramona and then wham, his friend took him to the Philipines and that was it. The friend also has a young Filipino wife.

Tweets are great at times like this.

I meant to check if they’re tweeting in Iran as they did last summer. Spealing of those who need prayers...

I am afraid to go to sleep until I know something more definitive than what we hear now. Rush means so much to me.

Art Bell is a weird little guy. I’ve met him in person. At one time, he was a conservative, then he whacko.

Art Bell is a great interviewer, but he has done some odd things. His sudden remarriage to a woman he had never personally met and relocation to the Philippines was quite odd, and I cannot quite figure out the transition from libertarian to Obama fan. He's still the best at doing Bizarro Radio.

Hopefully if it was real, he is out of the cath lab and well on the way to recovery. However, I hope the cath lab was not necessary because this was clearly not ACS. (Acute coronary syndrome for non medical types)

Here’s Another Doozy from Daily Hate (I mean KOS)...:

“Die, Die, Die, Die, Die
Ooops, sorry, insensitive.
Oh, thats’ right, I learned that from Rush.

So... in Rushes honor...

Chest pains? Tongue biting,mind twisting,upchucking pain for you I hope. You hateful pig.

Die Die Die Die Die.
I hope you suffer in extreme pain and die,die,die,die,die mother-hubbard. May we dance on your grave.

The fate you have long wished for your “enemies” now stares you down. Be a man, you fat pig.
Die.”

Every time that Fox News Alert comes on I feel sick!

It is nerve-racking. But if they had SERIOUS breaking news, there wouldn't be an alert. We'd suddenly see a stunned back-up anchor trying to read a note somebody just gave her. A Cronkite moment :-|

So the annoying alert is a good thing, lol
