Rush Limbaugh against digitized records because it will be harder to get excessive oxycodone.
It's as much fact based as him stating Michael J Fox was faking the effects of Parkinson's Disease.

The sister of an Illinois man who died of lymphoma said his policy was rescinded for the failure to report a possible aneurysm and gallstones that his physician noted in his chart but did not discuss with him.

The 21st century is beckoning you, the health care dinosaurs.

LIMBAUGH: It's — you know, it's just — it's just we can't hit the girl. I don't care how far feminism's saying, you can't hit the girl, and you can't — you can't criticize the little black man-child. You just can't do it, 'cause it's just not right. It's not fair. He's such a victim.
