vanekl (Diary) Wednesday, December 30th at 10:39PM EST (link)It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.

It could be any number of things. He lost a lot of weight quickly.
archer52 Wednesday, December 30th at 11:37PM EST (link)For some reason he was losing a lot of weight real quick. He has a new woman in his life and maybe he is just trying to hard to get to a place where he thinks he looks good. I hope it isn’t his heart, it shouldn’t be, his mom, dad and granddad lived a long time. I hope it isn’t drug related either. That would be crushing.
Hopefully, if it is his heart they catch it, stint him and he’ll be back better than ever. My buddy had his first attack when he was forty five, too many hours, too many cigarettes. They stinted him and it’s been five or better years with no problems. Another buddy got his first at thirty-six (genetics and Krystal burgers). They stinted him and he spent a year in Afghanistan in the mountains doing some serious work with no problems.
Yeah, I've been wondering about that diet he went on...

ABC news reported that Rush was in “stable condition” and apparently the word on twitter is “serious but stable” but I don’t know where they’re getting that info. I pray that God pulls him through and that Rush with a speedy recovery.
And then Rush needs to quit smoking and start taking really good care of himself from here on out. America needs him too much for him to go home anytime soon.

As Expected
michigan Thursday, December 31st at 10:21AM EST (link)I was online last night when the news broke of Rush. It was predictable and expected for the left to unleash and expose on cue, their signature hate for someone that disagrees with them, making jokes like, “how can Rush have a heart attack when he has no heart?” So blinded by this instinctive, Pavlovian rage that impairs them totally; unaware that this is a reflection of what’s truly in their soul, revealed for all to see, that they have none.
Well, we do have to have some Sense of Humor...
JLenardDetroit (Diary) Thursday, December 31st at 12:55PM EST (link)about ourselves and not such thin skin all the time. I say that and will refer to Dick Cheney in how he was more than happy to laugh off the Darth Vader, and the like, as well as many of the “Heartless,” related jokes/comments, Does an issue of our ‘thin skin’ (and we are all human and more than capable of having days where we fall to such) an issue of Holier-than-others indulgence OR is it indeed that we are reading the INTENT (tone and context, of course, should help understand/determine that) correctly. The issue is that intent and often it is all about the JUST TO BE MEAN that they say things.
Now, I have certainly said a few things, couched in “poor taste humor,” at times that many on the Left might not find funny – but I generally say them in a context with a reference that provides some kind of point to anyone that wants to actually pay attention.

clowngirl (Diary) Thursday, December 31st at 1:01AM EST (link)…also according to Twitter.
If you google “Ed Driscoll” I first saw it on his Twitter account but I think he was repeated from someone else ( I don’t use Twitter and am not sure how to track a post) anyway – there are several tweets now along the lines of saying Rush will be ok – doesn’t sound like any of it is confirmed though – but enough time has passed that one would think it likely that they’d have some idea.
The guy seemed to have originated the tweet also tweeted that his sources are saying there should be a statement from the hospital within the hour -presumably these are the same sources that are saying Rush is going to be ok.

Dear heavenly Father:
basalt_conservative (Diary) Thursday, December 31st at 12:41AM EST (link)Please take care of Mr. Limbaugh, who has been a bastion against the ungodly, hateful Left for many years. Give him strength during his recovery and beyond. And please bring those who speak spitefully of his medical problem to repentance.
Especially, during this trying time, bring justice to the unjust, judgment to the wicked, mercy to the penitent, comfort to the weak, and peace to those that love You!

Even Rachel Maddow has chimed in with well wishes for Rush
TNJim (Diary) Thursday, December 31st at 1:54AM EST (link)on twitter. Too bad some of the other lefties on twitter don’t feel the same way, some of whom may even watch her show. Some leftie blogger has even put up an obituary already.
From the Rush Web Site:
USNJIMRET (Diary) Thursday, December 31st at 2:12AM EST (link)ALERT: Rush was admitted to a Honolulu hospital today and is resting comfortably after suffering chest pains. Rush appreciates your prayers and well wishes. He will keep you updated via RushLimbaugh.com and on Thursday’s radio program.
****************************************************************
That last part, that he will update on Thursdays radio program, sounds like a full recovery is in the offing!
Thanks God, appreciate this one.
Awesome, prayer works...

Glad Rush appears to be ok...
Addison (Diary) Thursday, December 31st at 5:46AM EST (link)…and, as much as it’s within my cyber-purview to offer apologies for such things, sorry for some others on the left who heard the news with glee and followed reports with anticipation of Rush’s death. It’s sick. And, you know I doubt the same behavior would be observed or tolerated here if Michael Moore were to have a heart attack. I’m not such a nice person online sometimes, but at least I am harsh on political items and know the limits on personal ones…
So, glad to hear he’s alright for the time being. Always enjoy listening to him and getting mad (or, occasionally, agreeing).
it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses
Well done, Addison

I'm so relieved.
Mary Beth (Diary) Thursday, December 31st at 6:24AM EST (link)I’m so relieved. I saw someone on a lib forum say she read some tweets that said he died. I hadn’t heard that and I was starting to freak out until I read this. PTL he’s okay. We need Rush Limbaugh!

wolfeman Thursday, December 31st at 6:47AM EST (link)May you be blessed with a full and speedy recovery so you can return to your very important mission of enlightening people as you have helped to enlighten me. You have much more work to do. Lots of evil to fight.
We Need You Rush!

Just when you think this miserable year was
throwback59 Thursday, December 31st at 8:26AM EST (link)over and we could start fresh we hear this.
I have so many memories of the man over the past 15 years, he got me through the Clinton years and is making the Obama years more tolerable.
Yesterday a post here asked what we would want to see for a headline in 2010, How about this;
Limbaugh leaves hospital after false alarm.
Happy New Year to Rush and all my friends here.
Rush better, liberals wail.

If Obama were as bright as they say
ashland_avenue (Diary) Thursday, December 31st at 10:50AM EST (link)he would interrupt Hawaii vacation to see Rush in nearby hospital, offer to send own physician to assist in any way possible, and issue statement to the effect that although we see things differently, Rush is an American icon and all wish him well.
There is no reason to think at this point that the President hasnt done some of this. For the sake of the nation, I hope that he has.
Unfortunately,...
ceili_dancer (Diary) Thursday, December 31st at 11:52AM EST (link)Obama is a bitter person with a sack full of personal vendettas. Watching him for the last couple of years, you coulod see that he doesn’t have friends, just political alliances. If those alliances fail him, it goes under the bus quickly replaced by some other synchphantic group. Playing political hardball all your adult life does not leave room for friends, let alone being kind to others without an endgame result.
Just think for a moment what George and Laura would do
ashland_avenue (Diary) Thursday, December 31st at 11:58AM EST (link)under similar circumstances.
They'd be there in a minute,...
ceili_dancer (Diary) Thursday, December 31st at 12:08PM EST (link)They’d also do it without a press retinue, any pictures would be taken by Rush or friends of his. They wouldn’t be published on a website proclaiming how great he is. Look at all the visits we hear about that Bush did to Walter Reed and other base hospitals. They came from personal cameras not the high end cameras used by the press.
We already know he has done none of this.
Third Street (Diary) Thursday, December 31st at 3:16PM EST (link)We know this because if he had, it would already be saturating the media. Even if Obama were able to set his arrogant vindictiveness aside long enough to do what you suggest, it would be for the sole purposes of a photo-op and a look-how-magnanimous-and-wonderful-I-am press release. Keeping it classy, quiet, and out of the media a la GWB would serve neither BHO’s political purposes nor his incredible vanity. And Obama has never done a single thing in his life that was not ultimately all about him.

Has he been checked for gallstones?
Paul_In_Houston Friday, January 1st at 11:48PM EST (link)Around the end of the ’80s, I began suffering severe chest pains; the first time resulting in a trip to the emergency room, fearing a heart attack.
They found nothing wrong with my heart, but diagnosed “gastric distress”, and maybe an incipient ulcer.
The pains recurred, off and on, for TWO years, usually after eating anything that had various fats in it (which I tried to avoid, to not much avail).
One day, when going to the local clinic for relief, the doctor I usually saw wasn’t there, so I saw an intern instead who listened to my description of my symptoms, read my file, and then sent me to a local womens’ clinic for an ultrasound scan (which my clinic had not the equipment for).
The result of that scan confirmed his suspicions of gallstones. A surgery was arranged and my gallbladder (which was FILLED with gallstones, looking like small gravel) was removed, FINALLY relieving me from intermittent HELL.
What bothered me most about the episode (aside from the pain all that time) was that it took that long to find someone who had a clue as to what to look for. Finding a doctor who knows his stuff appears to be much like finding a really good mechanic, but far more consequential.
I hope Rush has been checked for this possibility.
