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.
Hoping that’s an error
I hope he’s a liar. He’s probably hoping to cause some of us to die from the stress.
I fervently hope so.
seems to be coming from somebody on twitter called Biodome10, who claims to have photos, but has to stop talking about it now cause he has worked out a deal with TMZ...
I heard him say he would not risk his vocal cords too.
KEEP PRAYING!!!
We are old and dear friends.
There’s enough of us here, but you’re right, we spent many a night here late. Gosh, all nighter’s were common place.
That made me smile.
The 10 minute announcement is about 15 minutes overdue.
More recent update, minus the trash reporting

They are saying horrible things on my crime website also. I decided not to read anymore of their hateful posts. I DISLIKED Ted K. but stayed off their mourning threads out of respect. Low class scum, IMO.
I know that - however others are Tweeting it and saying they have sources at TMZ
That’s why I put ??????
Don’t freak out. It seems like the doctors are being very tight-lipped and we have no real info. If there were going to be an official announcement, they would be setting up a press conference and not sending it out in a news release.
All the national news stations would be hooking up local reporters to the scene if the hospital sent out word of any sort of official announcement to take place. They would also be breaking into regular programing to let us know official word was on it’s way.
What an asshole. Photos of his corpse!
BTW there is NO Mrs. Limbaugh as he writes:
“more news on Rush Limbaugh coming soon, tryign to get ahold of Mrs. Limbaugh
about 1 hour ago from web”
NOOOOOOO that guy sounds kind of credible or am I just gullible. All those facts, time of death, rush taking pills AND drinking....
Go to that link if you dare, it is scaring me and making me feel very sick.
Noooooooooo
LOL!
I doubt that this so-called “Dr. Chan” would be talking to this tweeter.
My feelings exactly...
The link at 1284 — can it be true, can it be true? Oh PLEASE G-D NO!!!
For your own sake, please stay away from those left-wing hate sites.
The posters there are deranged and don’t have any “inside” information and are just posting rumors to feel important and/or to freak people out.
Probably some Perez Hilton wannabe posting those rumors.
Thanks for the calming words. I’m simply aghast that one blogger has already printed his obit and now these TMZ rumors. If it’s all bogus — what a commentary on the depths to which the left has sunk.
What you say makes sense. I am taking deep breaths. Thanks.
