Conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh will be announcing his run for President of the United States when he returns to hosting his popular broadcast following the Easter Weekend.

An anonymous source close to Limbaugh has revealed that he has been rapidly gearing up for the GOP nomination race while he as been away from the show this past week. His website only says that he is in a 'super secret location', jokingly suggesting he may be looking for health care alternatives.

The source elaborated that Limbaugh's feelings about running for office have been slowly changing over the past year as the cost of having Obama in the Oval office has approached the pay cut he often cited as his reason for not running in the past.

It is expected that his campaign will be a great boon for the conservative wing of the GOP, attracting millions of his fans (often called dittoheads for their slavish devotion to Limbaugh's views)...

Statement from Rush Limbaugh on running for President
http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/home/daily/site_040210/content/01125111.member.html

Many times in the past I have said that I could not afford the pay cut I would suffer if I ran for public office. We have now reached a point in time where I have to weigh that against the pay cut from NOT running for office.

During this past week I have been exploring options and giving deep, thoughtful consideration to how I can best serve freedom and the ideas of the founding fathers. At this point I have not reached any decision, but rest assured, if there is any announcement to be made, my loyal audience will be the first to hear of it.

Today is my official taser carry day, anyone dares try an April Fools joke will be in for a shock.

And I suggest the children here stop playing with mommies or daddies computer. April Fools Day is a wasted holiday and is for fools alone, grow up.

Some real things happen to actually occur on April 1st.

Actually, he probably could tie Obama up in knots in a debate and he’s probably a lot brighter and more well-spoken than the average GOPer wanna-be.

I can confirm this is more than talk. I am a member of a group here in Iowa that is fortunate to visit with presidential potential candidates. These are folks that are coming here well ahead of any campaigning, when those candidates want to get a feel of how they would resonate.

Let's just say that EIB One has been breathing lot’s of Iowa air into it's engine intakes recently.

More to come..

Look up the heartfelt sentiments when Rush finally realizes Bill Clinton is the only hope for America and endorses him for president ... April 1, 1992.
