      We already have sub prime health care. As in, it's not good enough. I'm sure your insurance is paid in full by the good old EIB though Rush, and your 40+ million per year you're paid to puke out your bile over the airwaves should have you covered for a long time as well.

      Overpaid pundits should stay out of this debate, it doesn't really concern them.

      Sing it with me...

      RUSH! Ah-ah! Savior of the universe!

      Out of sheer curiosity, when's the last time Mr. Limbaugh has gone down in history as the man who "saved" anything?

      I mean, he's had a fairly long career, so I imagine there's at least one damsel in distress that yon white knight did rescue.

      Right?

        Limbaugh won't even go down in history as the guy who saved the last doughnut for one of the underpaid interns at EIB.

          wonder if this puke, has even had a passing thought, about the 3,000 employees that lost their jobs, at the same company that so grossly over pays this pig?

      You are right Rush...

      About 1.5 million families lose their homes to foreclosure every year due to unaffordable medical costs.

      And like the housing bubble... The United States spends six times more per capita on the administration of the health care system than its peer Western European nations.

      A recent study by Harvard University researchers found that the average out-of-pocket medical debt for those who filed for bankruptcy was $12,000. The study noted that 68 percent of those who filed for bankruptcy had health insurance. In addition, the study found that 50 percent of all bankruptcy filings were partly the result of medical expenses.9 Every 30 seconds in the United States someone files for bankruptcy in the aftermath of a serious health problem.


      They are exactly alike!!

      Instead, you're known as the man who supplies America with substandard radio blather . . .

      I hope he is... althoug a little bit differently...

      I hope that we get a decent public helath care system.
      I hope it's the envy of the enitre world.
      I hope America finally wakes up a says "Wow this is great!"
      And then...
      I hope everybody remembers who the man was who wanted to be known as they guy who killed it.

      And I want to be known as the man who forced Limbaugh to tell his listeners the truth about his arrest in Pittsburgh in the Early '70s in the company of a male prostitute in an area known for gay activity. This happened when he was a DJ using the pseudonym "Jeff Christie".
