Iconic Conservative radio personality Rush Limbaugh announced on his Monday radio program that he has been diagnosed with advanced lung cancer. He says he will not be on the air for some days due to treatment.
“This day has been one of the most difficult days in recent memory, for me, because I’ve known this moment was coming,” Limbaugh said. “I’m sure that you all know by now that I really don’t like talking about myself and I don’t like making things about me… one thing that I know, that has happened over the 31-plus years of this program is that there has been an incredible bond that had developed between all of you and me.”
“So, I have to tell you something today that I wish I didn’t have to tell you. It’s a struggle for me, because I had to inform my staff earlier today,” he said. “I can’t help but feel that I’m letting everybody down with. The upshot is that I have been diagnosed with advanced lung cancer.”
“(I plan to) do this show as normally and as competently and as expertly as I do each and every day because that is the source of my greatest satisfaction professionally,” Limbaugh said. “(and) personally.”

Tehillim name??

Rush is American treasure. America needs him.
This is news because ?
The post about the death of american basketball player is equally newsworthy as a post about an american radio personality.
To ANON: Tehillim name? Really? Try Reuven ben Sarah.
A speedy recovery to a great American icon. Rush you are in our prayers
To ANON21: His name is Rush son of Rush Hudson. For non-Jews the name of the father is used.
watch the liberals say how somber they are but smiling with a grin

Rush should have a רפואה שלמה וקרובה.
Rush Limbaugh Should merit a רפואה-שלימה. He is an absolute Gem & Diamond, and speaks the absolute unadulterated truth of the highest order, and is so genuine & correct in all he says. I listen to him everyday, and he is simply Incredible!! השם ירחם עליו
I’m really sad. We really need him. I hope Hashem sends him a refuah shlaima
Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy. We should all show him the same empathy and respect he always showed others.
May he have a Refuah Shelima. He is true defender of Jewish values.
It happens
MoisheInGolus clearly G-d had other plans
Swings, and your point is?
It is urgently time to quit all forms of smoking; Not just cigarettes, but even cigars.
I think Mr. Limbaugh is one of the worst things that has happened to this country in the last few decades. Nevertheless, I do not wish this on him nor am I glad he is sick. Having lost both parents to cancer (one to lung cancer) I wish him a complete recovery. I also hope that he utilizes his ordeal to make teshuva for all the harm he has done to individuals and to our national consciousness. A Rush Limbaugh who has discovered the suffering that serious illness brings and has decided to crusade for adequate health care for all would be an asset to our country, as he would be if he also began to teach respect and civilized speech by example.
And remember that it says in Avos not to rejoice at the fall of our enemy. Mr. Limbaugh may have been a major driver of the bitter partisanship and lack of respect that now haunts our country, but no one should be happy that he is sick.
He is the greatest partially because he is entertaining and is not mean spirited. Anyone who has a nasty comment are those who have never listened to him. He doesn’t say anything offensive at all, you can be a socialist and enjoy the show. Limbaugh is a great litmus test for the type of person you are dealing with.
Midwest2, RE: “Mr. Limbaugh is one of the worst things that has happened to this country in the last few decades”, if you mean by “this country” leftists like you and anti-American Democrats, then Rush deserves a credit?
mosheingolus=midwest2 is just a trolling fool!
