Yes, ladies and gentlemen. I\u2019m checking the e-mail during the break: &#8216;Are you gonna talk about the Fruit of Kaboom Bomber?\u2019 That\u2019s what we\u2019re going to call the guy. Yeah we\u2019re going to call about the Fruit of Kaboom Bomber and Obama and all of this stuff. But everybody is curious about my medical circumstances last week and I wanted to thank everybody involved in treating me and all of you for the tremendous response I got from all of you. The whole thing was actually an upper as it turned out. And yes, I checked the e-mail, &#8216;Rush, do you know that there were Democrats saying that you had died? Do you know that there were Democrats hoping?\u2019 Yeah, of course, folks. I knew that was going to be the case. You know, we\u2019re always being lectured to on civility. But here\u2019s the thing you need to know. Those people that were delighting in my potential death and distress, even hoping that I would die?<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re the same people who are asking to control the health care system, and I want to stress one more time: When I went out there and said that the American health care system is the best health care system in the world, I was thanking and praising the people at Queen\u2019s Hospital, and they said, &#8216;That\u2019s a political attack! That\u2019s a political attack on Obama,\u2019 as though the Drive-Bys had never politicized anything. Then they tried to say, &#8216;Yeah, but Limbaugh inadvertently screwed himself here because Hawaii has the most progressive health care system in the country. In fact it\u2019s been exempted from a lot of Obamacare because it\u2019s got so much of Obamacare in it. So Limbaugh praised Obamacare!\u2019 I even had some journalists sending me notes on Sunday wanting me to comment on that, and I said, &#8216;How stupid and dense are these people? There was not one shred of Obamacare in any aspect of the care that I got.\u2019 <\/p>\n<p>A, I don\u2019t have insurance. Hell, I may have it, I don\u2019t even know. But I don\u2019t use it. I pay cash for it. I gave them a credit card and they took the credit card. There was not one bureaucrat involved. Now, in Obamacare, you have to have health insurance or go to jail or pay a fine. I\u2019m not gonna get health insurance. I\u2019m not going to inflate my bill by 35%. This cost me 30% less than had insurance been involved here. There was not one bureaucrat determining whether or not I was gonna get treatment. There wasn\u2019t a death panel here. There wasn\u2019t a set of guidelines saying, &#8216;Okay, this guy is 58 and is going to be 59 in two weeks. This is going to cost X. Eh, maybe it\u2019s not worth it.\u2019 That did not happen. There was not one shred of Obamacare involved in my visit to the Queen\u2019s Medical Center in Honolulu. Here are some audio sound bites. <img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125107.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"264\" class=\"alignright\"\/>This is a montage last Friday, Saturday, and Monday, a bunch of people from the media outraged that I praised the health care system.<\/p>\n<p>HENRY: Rush Limbaugh [is] getting right back into the thick of the health care debate. <\/p>\n<p>GLOR: Limbaugh said he\u2019s received, quote, &#8216;the best treatment in the world\u2019 and that &#8216;there\u2019s not one thing wrong with the US health care system.\u2019 <\/p>\n<p>BRIGGS: He did weigh in on the condition of our health care here in the United States. <\/p>\n<p>BREAM: Limbaugh could not resist the opportunity to turn the conversation about his health into politics. <\/p>\n<p>JARRETT: A very vocal opponent of government health care reform put in a plug for the current state of US medical care. <\/p>\n<p>RITTER: &#8230;using all this attention to blast health care reform. <\/p>\n<p>NGUYEN: Limbaugh says the results showed no heart problems. Then he delivered a similar diagnosis for America\u2019s health care system. <\/p>\n<p>HENDRICKS: Limbaugh couldn\u2019t resist taking a political jab at a hospital news conference. <\/p>\n<p>HILL: (music) &#8230;couldn\u2019t resist taking a jab at the debate over health care reform. <\/p>\n<p>FIRFER: Limbaugh couldn\u2019t resist taking a political jab at a hospital news conference. <\/p>\n<p>COWAN: Rush Limbaugh didn\u2019t waste the opportunity yesterday to say that his experience at the hospital here was proof that the health care system is just fine. <\/p>\n<p>OLBERMANN: Rush Limbaugh explains he now has first-hand knowledge that the current health system works. Of course it does if, like him, you make $33 million a year.<\/p>\n<p>MATTHEWS: Rush Limbaugh managed to turn his trip to the hospital last week into an attack on president Obama and the Democrats. Look, I\u2019m sincerely happy Rush is okay, but does the man have to turn even an emergency hospital visit into a political event?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: (laughing) I\u2019m still tweaking them, and they\u2019re really upset because they know that I made a point. They know that I did. These people politicize everything! All they do is see the politics of any event. They see a terror attack or a potential terror attack and say, &#8216;Oh, my gosh! Will this hurt Obama politically? How can we insulate Obama? Oh, another crasher got into the state dinner for this Indian prime minister, a third one? Is this going to hurt Obama? Will this hurt Rahm Emanuel?\u2019 They\u2019re always looking at things in a political sense, and why shouldn\u2019t I make that comment? Hell, I coulda gone even further. I coulda said, &#8216;Ladies and gentlemen, I want to thank God that this happened to me now instead of 2013 when Obamacare goes in full force, if it does.\u2019 So this is fascinating to watch these people react. I told Kathryn, I said, &#8216;That little comment, we\u2019re going to get three days out of this. We\u2019re gonna jab \u2019em. You watch. That\u2019s what they\u2019re going to hear: State-Run Media outrage.\u2019 This is ABC\u2019s This Week on Sunday, most of these. They continue to be outraged that I used the hospital news conference to praise the health care system.<\/p>\n<p>BROWNSTEIN: What Rush as saying &#8212; uh, Limbaugh was saying &#8212; was great except for the 47 million people (snickers) who don\u2019t have health insurance. Uh, uh, uh, uh &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>REPORTER: And are not as wealthy as he is.<\/p>\n<p>BROWNSTEIN: And &#8212; and &#8212; and &#8212; and don\u2019t have access. <\/p>\n<p>REPORTER: (giggles)<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125107.Par.4584.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"350\" height=\"393\" class=\"alignright\"\/>BROWNSTEIN: Uh, I do think in the end they do have to make, uh, a deal and re &#8212; and &#8212; and reach a bill. The Democrats, have&#8230; You know&#8230; This has been a very difficult hill to take. The &#8212; the political costs of it are obvious, uh, the approval rating of the president, ideological polarization around the size of government. There have been a lot of costs to get to this point. It is further, we should point out, than any president has ever going to gotten. No universal coverage bill has passed either chamber. Uh, to be at this point and be the get to the finish line would be almost unimaginable.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Universal coverage? We don\u2019t have that yet. That\u2019s going to take a while. But did you notice here that Mr. Brownstein said \u201947 million people who don\u2019t have health insurance.\u2019 Ladies and gentlemen, I was taken to the emergency room where I was treated, and anybody who had what I had would have been treated. It could have been some troll underneath a bridge. If they\u2019d been found with this kind of problem and put in an ambulance, the law requires that the person get treated in the emergency room. You don\u2019t need insurance for it. They eventually come to you for some kind of payment, but the 47 million is actually 30 when you take the illegal aliens out of it. We know this from President Obama. We\u2019ve run the numbers on this. The number of people that really want health insurance and can\u2019t get it is 12 million. But regardless, the Obamacare health care bill in the House or Senate does not insure these 47 million, Mr. Brownstein. It doesn\u2019t come close &#8212; and we don\u2019t need to spend $2.5 trillion to insure these 47 million. <\/p>\n<p>We could take unspent stimulus money and insure all the people in this group without changing the health care system at all! Again, I want to reiterate this one point. A lot of people say, &#8216;Rush, you\u2019re really running a risk here of sounding out of touch when you talk about how you can pay for this.\u2019 I\u2019m sorry, folks. If that\u2019s being out of touch, I\u2019ll run the risk. I\u2019d rather look at it this way, and this has happened to me before. I remember in the mid-nineties, I got a famous call &#8212; H.R., you\u2019ll remember this &#8212; from some guy in Nacogdoches, Texas, who said, &#8216;You\u2019re out of touch,\u2019 \u2019cause I had told him I\u2019d paid the bills the other month and I didn\u2019t have a problem writing the checks. &#8216;Yeah, you don\u2019t know what it\u2019s like to have to not be able to pay your electric bill.\u2019 I said, &#8216;Yes, I do. I\u2019ve gone through countless months where I\u2019ve been unable to pay my bills.\u2019 I said, &#8216;Sir, what I\u2019d rather look at here is that I live in a country where I was able to set a goal, and I\u2019ve been able to achieve it.\u2019 <\/p>\n<p>I might also add that it took a little government shrinkage for my goal to be realized. That was the Fairness Doctrine. Somebody had to get rid of a little bit of government in order for me to exercise fully the opportunities that I wanted to. But this trip to the hospital, I\u2019ll admit that it\u2019s special. I\u2019m very grateful for it but it\u2019s something that I\u2019ve worked for. I\u2019m not running around asking anybody else to pay for it, and I don\u2019t have an attitude in my head that somebody else ought to have to pay for it. I budget this. I figure that these kinds of things are going to happen as you get older, so I set money aside for it. And I don\u2019t know that makes me out of touch. It rather makes me responsible. Now, I know that not everybody can do it under the current structure of our system, which is my real point. Real reform of the health care system would involve NOTHING like what we have done in the House and Senate. <\/p>\n<p>Real reform of the health care system would involve cost control and increasing access to health care, and it would not be hard. It would say some time and it would take some commitment, but if we could reestablish &#8212; like we have in every other commercial transaction in the country, where the customer (i.e., patient) pays based on the ability to afford. And, yeah, there will be different kinds of health care, just as there are different grades of cars and hotels and so forth. Not everybody gets the best of everything and anything! Yet we\u2019ve evolved this attitude that everybody ought to get the best in health care. I know it sounds insensitive when I say that there are going to be levels. Go to Canada or go to Great Britain and find out if in these wonderful socialist utopias everybody gets the best of everything. It doesn\u2019t happen. It\u2019s a pipe dream. And it\u2019s irresponsible for Obama and the Democrats to start promising that kind of thing, especially promising people they\u2019re not going to have to pay for it when their premiums &#8212; everybody\u2019s costs &#8212; are going to skyrocket like you can\u2019t believe. <\/p>\n<p>Everybody\u2019s been sold a bill of goods on this thing. You know, they\u2019re not even going to have a conference committee now. They\u2019re going to play ping-pong back and forth, the Democrat leaders, and be they\u2019re not going to televise the hearings. Obama promised eight times to put this on TV! Pelosi is mad that he made that promise. She\u2019s mad that he\u2019s raising taxes on the middle class with &#8216;Cadillac\u2019 health care plans. She took a swipe at him. We got the audio. Eight times he promised all this transparency! They can\u2019t afford you to see what\u2019s actually in this bill or to see them doing this. The Democrats, they are resigning in droves here. We\u2019re up to five now including Chris Dodd. You know, Abraham Lincoln used to say something about his wife Mary Todd. She came from a very pretentious family, and he always joked, &#8216;You know, God only needed one D in his name; Mary\u2019s family needs two.\u2019 Well, Chris Dodd\u2019s got three D\u2019s in his name; God only needs one. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: One more sound bite. This is from the Morning Joe team on Monday morning. Joe Scarborough, Mika Brzezinski, Willie Geist, Andy Serwer from Fortune Magazine, Hurricane Katrina vanden Heuvel from The Nation magazine.<\/p>\n<p>GEIST: Mr. Rush Limbaugh checked himself into a hospital &#8212; he was on vacation in Hawaii &#8212; suffering from chest pains. But he came out and had a New Year\u2019s Day news conference outside the hospital to announce that all was well with not just him personally, but with the American health care system. No need for change. See, Katrina, there\u2019s nothing wrong with the health care system.<\/p>\n<p>VANDEN HEUVEL: He was at a resort in Hawaii and has insurance. <\/p>\n<p>SERWER: What\u2019s his deductible? What\u2019s his deductible? <\/p>\n<p>SCARBOROUGH: No. Our thoughts and prayers are with Rush&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>GEIST: We\u2019re glad he\u2019s healthy.<\/p>\n<p>VANDEN HEUVEL: Is he on Medicare, I wonder?<\/p>\n<p>SCARBOROUGH: &#8230; for &#8212; for anybody in that position, but we\u2019re &#8212; we\u2019re praying for him, but, yeah, if you make $50 million&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>SERWER: There you go.<\/p>\n<p>GEIST: It works.<\/p>\n<p>SCARBOROUGH: &#8230;you\u2019re going to probably get better coverage.<\/p>\n<p>SERWER: There is the point. That\u2019s the point.<\/p>\n<p>SCARBOROUGH: And all of us around this table get coverage like Rush gets.<\/p>\n<p>BRZEZINSKI: And you\u2019re an international celebrity.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: In the first place, you don\u2019t need to make $33 million a year or $50 million to afford what happened. I\u2019ll put it to you this way. My expenses were less than the cheapest car that you will go out and buy today other than one of these little bubble smart cars. It was five figures less than the average car. Yet for some reason it\u2019s immoral for people to have to pay for that. I don\u2019t have insurance. &#8216;I\u2019m sure he has insurance.\u2019 No. I pay cash for it and it was less than the price of a car. And just as is the case with a car you could finance your health care coverage. You don\u2019t have to come up with the whole lump sum, hospitals, doctors, work with you on this. But we\u2019ve got to this point &#8212; I know I\u2019m going to lose this point, I know I\u2019m not going to succeed in convincing anybody here because we\u2019ve had really 15 to 20 intense years of the Democrat Party slowly but surely pounding everybody with the concept that the one thing in human life that is sacrosanct is not life itself but rather health care, and that it ought not cost anybody anything. <\/p>\n<p>You know when I was a young kid I was a big fan of the space program. I loved Mercury rockets, the capsule and the first suborbital flights. I was mesmerized by it. I\u2019m nine or ten years old and I remember asking my dad &#8212; I\u2019m watching the coverage, I think it was Walter Cronkite on CBS. I\u2019m watching the coverage of the first orbital flight, John Glenn, and somebody talked about how much it cost. And I looked at my dad, and I said, &#8216;Why does it cost anything? Why don\u2019t people donate? Don\u2019t they understand this is for their country?\u2019 The instinct of people is that there ought to be things that don\u2019t cost anything. As a young kid, without full immersion into anything intellectual politically or economic, my instinct was why does it cost anything, why don\u2019t the people who make the rocket donate it and why don\u2019t the people who make the capsule donate it? And why don\u2019t the people working in the building that we see monitoring it, why don\u2019t they donate their work? And my dad looked at me and I could tell he was sort of challenged by the question because normally when I asked a stupid question he could tell me it was stupid and answer it anyway. This one he kind of pondered because he knew he was going to have a tough time explaining this because this was an economics lesson I was asking at age nine or ten. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125107.Par.6713.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"248\" class=\"alignright\"\/>My point is there are people today, adults, who look at the health care system the way I thought of the space program or anything else American and thus patriotic when I was nine. Why does anybody have to pay for it? And the only way you can fully understand why somebody has to pay for it is to get some kind of a basic understanding of economics 101. And even people who have that still get clouded by or confused by what they consider the humanitarian nature or mission combined with the never-ending drumbeat politically of class envy and the poor and the cost and so forth, everybody has a moral right to health care, to the best. And yet they don\u2019t say that about cars, they don\u2019t say it about airplane tickets, they don\u2019t say it about food. They don\u2019t say it about water. Why don\u2019t we have water insurance? Have you see what bottled water costs? But health care &#8212; and this is because for 50 years the Democrat Party has wanted to nationalize it and come up with a single-payer system, putting themselves in total power control over as many citizens as possible.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: My friends, my friends, I totally get it. Let me explain it to you this way. Imagine the costs of my treatment out in Hawaii. I know what the costs would look like to somebody that doesn\u2019t have a job, under water in their house, no investment portfolio. I know how frightening that is. That\u2019s exactly what Obama wants. That\u2019s the fear he wants. He wants everybody thinking, &#8216;Oh, my God, I can\u2019t afford it, oh, it would break my life. Government, please pay for it.\u2019 That\u2019s what they\u2019re all counting on rather than people assuming responsibility for their own health care. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: America\u2019s Truth Detector and the Doctor of Democracy.
