That was my impression as well.

I wonder if some of his surprise was due to his hearing?

Congratulations to Rush and I truly hope he can make a total recovery. I can’t imagine a world without his voice of reason and ability to read the tea leaves.

Even though he was invited to SOTU, and having doctors appointments, and possibly treatment TODAY, he might not have been made aware of the award.

Guess I missed it earlier but Tulsi Gabbard (D) showed a lot of class with her wishes for Rush.

Marked difference from the juvenile hate being spewed by the left in general.

I started listening to Rush about the time President Clinton entered office. I don’t get to listen as much these days but his efforts are still very valuable and greatly appreciated. Praying for his full recovery.

I was a Rush disdainer until that white trash grifter masturbating buffoon Clinton was elected. WFB, David Horowitz, Rush, Thomas Sowell and others brought me around. I hope Rush will make it through to see the re-election of DJT.

I was choked up, no doubt about it.

I hope it sinks in.

The limited media reports before the address indicated it would be presented in coming months(s).

I saw this clip and Juan Williams makes some very touching comments.

I think we all knew the moment we heard the diagnosis that there would be a substantial number on the left that would dance on the man’s grave before he was even placed in it. Has he been a polarizing figure in our time? Absolutely. What these people fail to see is that Rush has done so much for so many and he doesn’t beat his chest and announce it to the world. His charitable work is something that he does because it’s a good thing to do and not because it gets him good press.

Former congresswoman Katie Hill posted the following: "Oh FFS Rush Limbaugh getting the Medal of Honor is a low I sure wasn’t expecting." — Katie Hill

If you remember, she is the one who resigned late last year after a personal controversy.


On the other hand, our local newspaper opinion column person(he is very left) wrote a column titled: No one should be celebrating Rush Limbaugh’s cancer. Being human shouldn’t be hard

He admits he doesn't agree with Rush, but still won't cross a line and say bad things about this situation.

Rush started in Sacramento - the station he started his rise still employs the woman who was Rush's producer back then.

Stupid cow doesn't know the difference between Medal of Honor and Medal of Freedom.

Looks like the dimwits at "the skew" (AKA The View) are taking shots at Rush. Apparently, they didn't think he actually did anything...

I would call them dumb whores, but I can't think of any man that would defile themselves with their company.

Tony.

If the idiots on the Left had any idea in their clueless heads, how many millions of dollars Rush has raised for various charities (and contributed heavily to himself), they still wouldn’t like him being honored, but I’d feel better if I knew they understood that they were being assholes about it.

Rush Limbaugh — Political Commentator, Radio Talk Show Host
Place of Birth

Cape Girardeau, Missouri in 1951
Industry

Radio & Television
Early Career

Rush Limbaugh launched his radio career when he was only 16. Adopting the handle Rusty Sharpe, he began spinning records as the station disc jockey.

After graduating from high school in 1969, Limbaugh attended Southeast Missouri State University, leaving after two years to become a DJ in Pittsburgh. He continued in the radio industry, working at several stations and ultimately ending up in Sacramento, California in 1984.

In Sacramento, Limbaugh began to build a solid following of conservative listeners. In 1988, he moved to New York City and became the host of a national radio show. It came at an opportune time, falling between the two major US party conventions.

By the early 1990s, Rush Limbaugh had become the most popular talk show host on radio. His style combined performance with a hard-hitting, intellectual presentation of the facts. He became renowned and appreciated for his wit, satire, and sharp humor. He was unafraid to touch upon even the most taboo subjects of the day or to take on national personalities. Eventually, his show was syndicated to more than 650 radio stations across America. Today, the show reaches more than 20 million listeners every week.
Advocacy and Philanthropy

Rush Limbaugh has used his platform for philanthropic causes, among them the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of America. His annual Cure-A-Thon broadcast on his three-hour radio show has raised more than $47 million to advance the organization’s research and family-support programs.

The stated mission of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) is to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma as well as to improve the quality of life of patients and their families. Founded in 1949, LLS has partners and chapters throughout the United States and Canada. Limbaugh and his wife, Kathryn, have personally contributed more than $600,000 to LLS.
Marine Corps-Law Enforcement Foundation

Rush Limbaugh is also a strong advocate and supporter of the US Armed Forces. He has used his show to raise awareness of the accomplishments and needs of the country’s military personnel. In particular, Limbaugh has been a long-term supporter of the Marine-Corps Law Enforcement Foundation and has helped to successfully channel millions to support the organization. His designer tea company, Two If by Tea, has been a sponsor of the Foundation since 2011.

The Marine-Corps Law Enforcement Foundation was founded in 1995. It supports the children of fallen soldiers by providing medical assistance and scholarships. More than $50 million has been distributed to qualified children since its founding.
Awards and Recognition

Rush Limbaugh is one of the most famous voices representing conservatives in America. He has received multiple awards from the industry and other media platforms. The National Association of Broadcasters honored him with the Marconi Radio Award for Syndicated Radio Personality of the Year five times since 1992.

In 1993, Limbaugh was inducted into the National Radio Hall of Fame and the National Association of Broadcasters Hall of Fame in 1998. Time Magazine listed him among the 100 Most Influential People in the World, and Forbes Magazine named him as one of the 50 Most Powerful Celebrities in the United States.
