Rush Limbaugh- Lung Cancer
Rush just announced on-air that he has advanced Lung Cancer.

Prayers for him if you will.



BIDEN SUCKS.

If you're goin' through hell, keep on going.
Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it.
You might get out before the devil even knows you're there.

I wouldn't wish that insidious disease on anyone. Sad news.

There are big advances being made in treatment of “advanced” lung cancer. I have a friend whose tumor genetics make him eligible for a new drug that will likely give him years rather than months to live.
Rush has all the money in the world, so he will get the best of care.
I will pray for him.

I just caught the end of his program and heard the announcement.
Rush has been a rock star in the conservative movement and and inspiration to me for the last 31 years. I've always enjoyed his radio program. After WFB he's probably had the most influence on conservative thought, opinion, and always does it with good-natured humor.

I drive through his home town of Cape Girardeau regularly and I know his brother and we have several other people in common. I've never even met the man personally, but he's a friend nonetheless.

This comes right after a friend of the family died of lung cancer. Sad news.



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

Been listening to him since his Sacramento days when I lived in NoCal.

“Ladies and gentleman, this day has been one of the most difficult days in recent memory for me because I’ve known this moment was coming in the program today,” Limbaugh began. “I’m sure you all know by now, I really don’t like talking about myself and I don’t like making things about me other than in the usual satirical joking way.”

“I like this program to be about you and things that matter to all of us,” Limbaugh continued. “The 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 has 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,” Limbaugh continued. “And it’s, it’s a struggle for me because I had to inform my staff earlier today.”

“I have been diagnosed with advanced lung cancer,” Limbaugh said.

I was listening with it in the background and realized he was saying goodbye in case he couldn't be back as much as he wanted to be. Frown

I'm quite sure he was. He would often refer to "My formerly nicotine stained hands". I think he smoked cigars after quitting cigs.
