Rush Limbaugh gave a press conference today to announce his release from hospital. He was hospitalized in Hawaii on Wednesday after complaining of chest pains.

Limbaugh says medical tests show no signs of coronary disease and doctors do not know what caused his chest pains Wednesday afternoon.

Limbaugh thanked the staff at the Kahala Hotel for coming to his aid, saying he arrived at the hospital within a matter of minutes.

He also said he received great care at Queen's Medical Center and that there is nothing wrong with the American health care system.

Caller after caller to his show Thursday sounded their well-wishes, asked to simply say "ditto" — a traditional Limbaugh catchword — so they could get on with questions and comments on social and government issues on the national talk show.

    "He also said he received great care at Queen's Medical Center and that there is nothing wrong with the American health care system." Sure, for those who can afford it.

    No hardened arteries, just a hardened heart.

    Kathy.......I would hang my religion on a tree limb for 30 seconds.........just so I could pound your secular head up against it...

    THIS Christian WILL tear your ass up....and have NO remorse...

    What you need to do 'oh-enlightened-one' is run your trash mouth to a muslim........

    But you wont because youre a cowardice woman, going with the flow of the secular society...and its only cool now to make fun of Christians....because in your mind, and alot of other 'enlightened' young persons, Christians wont fight back........

    Youre wrong...we're Strong....

    But if you were to run your mouth in front of this Christian, with your "Everybody look at me. I just made fun of a Christian for all to see".......youd be tasting your own blood from your gums because your teeth would be on the ground...

    THEN youd be pretty for the society you relate and belong to...

    The lower classes.....

    Once again.....BE GLAD your ugly and foul mouth isnt in front of me hollering your 'enlighten

    Lowell....Im a poor, poor fool...I have no job, I have a bent up back, I just got evicted from my home of 7 years...and 4 days ago my son was doubled over in severe pain from testicular 'something'...hes 18...
    I asked him a couple of questions to make sure it was severe enough to go to the hospital..
    It was....
    I helped him to my van, loaded him in and proceeded to the hospital..
    He has no insurance, not even on medicade....
    They done tests, consulted me as well as his future wife and told me that he has to be transported to another hospital because they dont do type of SURGERY at that facility...
    We didnt wait on the ambulance...I loaded him up in my van again and drove him 12 miles to the facility that handles procedures such as this....
    He was rushed in the emergency room, cut open and fixed.
    There is NOTHING wrong with the healthcare now...WHY change it??
    Ofcourse, and here is the smart@ss remark....Im trying to talk common sense to someone who was mesmerized by 'Hope-n-Ch

    "Grafted Devil" I'm sure your comments were addressed at "um,Kathy?" and not the author. "um,Kathy?" routinely puts out commie trash and attacks the author personally but never presents facts, just childish name-calling.

    It's awesome to see that Kathy Shaidle's main advertiser on her website, five feet of diarrhea, is some kind of weight-loss snake oil. Go, Kathy! Those eighty extra pounds are workin' for ya!

  • Chad 2 years ago

    Hahahahahahahaha, S***Head!

    Maybe you should gain some more weight, Kath. You've never been good at self-control. Just let yourself go. Wait, sorry, you let yourself go in the 80s.

    Did Rush steal any drugs for recreational use while he was in the hospital?

  • walrus 2 years ago

    My wife is a big, fat pig like Rush. She has health problems all the time. Maybe that's the problem.

    By the way, Um, Kathy? is actually Kathy Shaidle posting as someone else to drum up more comments here. Examiner pays her for every comment posted.

  • Jakesteroni 2 years ago

    What is this Shaidle, a relay board for right wing talk BS artists? She never had one original thought or post, they're all based by her idols Rush's or Anne's rants. So this is why she has been reduced to keeping people, who already know or don't care, informed about the health of her fat source of all her ideas

    Please read this discussion of Kathy Shaidle. It's wonderful.

    I can't post a URL on here, so just Google "Shaidle is ill," and you should come up with only one hit. Click on it and enjoy. These are true intellectuals, and it is the best assessment I've read yet of Kathy Shaidle's motivations and humanity, or lack thereof. Be sure to click on the "more" bar at the bottom of the page. There are about four pages of discussion. It's fascinating not just for the discussion of Shaidle but also for the discussion of whether or not it's possible, and maybe even desirable, to be friends with others whose political views differ from yours.
