Van Susteren airs Limbaugh claim that he "might not have survived" if health scare happened after 2013 health care reform

Rush,
Exactly which drugs were/are you taking for "back" pain.

P.S. You are still full of BS....You are still are loser and possibly a scourge on this country. But, welcome back anyway. The Democratic Party needs your help in the upcoming elections.

Inshallah, that you get fined. Go to jail? Pleeeease....Anyone else thinks he is more of a martyr than half of Al Qaeda?

State controlled media?WTH does that mean.I thought it was the "liberal" controlled media?Welcome back blowhard.Good to see you didn't lose our sense of whatever you have any sense of.

Limbaugh was in the hospital in the state that already had the most similar health care system to what is being proposed now. I had a huge laugh at Limbaugh's statement since I had heart surgery in Hawaii years ago when they DID already have mandatory insurance either paid by the employer or by the state. I was in the hospital 31 days and the bill I paid was for $31.00. As I read the Insurance plan in the house and Senate, I see that the plan will provide the same thing for our citizens. Of course, in Hawaii, people do not have to dig up the premiums themselves but alas,they are ALL insured and medical problems are treated in a timely manner when the cost of care is hugely less than when someone without insurance goes to an ER long after the disease process has gotten highly developed. So thanks Rush for giving your plug to Obama care. At last you said something truthful and constructive, but if you try to wiggle out of your direct complimentary statemnt, we can only conclude you have no honesty whatsoever,

So what is the big deal, the dweebs at MMFA also covered his comments.

I guess this is just another example of the cutting edge journalism of MMFA. In other words, pure nonsense.

The woman got a facelift at FOX and now is a different person,including dumbing down.

Um, yeah, Rush... The Healthcare that was passed by the House (aka Obamacare), was supposed to have the public option, be progressive like it is in Hawaii and didn't have the corporate insurance companies getting in the way and denying care for anybody. You claim as if the insurance companies would be all up in our business under the House bill. Maybe they gave you the wrong medication there, buddy. I would go back and get a check up and prepare for a possible lobotomy.

"between me and my check book" what an arrogant SOB! If he can write a check for an emergency room visit, the ambulance ride, and tests for a suspected heart attack then he's certainly not representative of the millions of other Americans who are uninsured. Life is good for this guy.

It's amazing to me just how many people are brainwashed by this man and fall for his point of view. His arrogance is astounding, but his transparency even more so. Limbaugh has upwards of a $400 MILLION contract with clearchannel, not to mention whatever else he makes on the side. OF COURSE the procedure was between him and his checkbook - who wouldn't love to be able to simply write a check for hospital care and bypass the insurance companies? If I made that kind of money I wouldn't have health insurance either - biggest scam in the country, with the EIB network running a close second. Personally I think it was a publicity stunt - very premeditated to draw attention to RUSH in Hawaii while the President was there too. Interesting also is the fact that, in spite of the fact he says our health care system doesn't need changing, they couldn't find out why he 'suffered' from chest pains.

These people keep confusing (I am sure purposely) the issue of quality of healthcare with being able to afford it. It is not that Rush was able to have such quality healthcare, but that he wa able to pay for it and not go bankrupt.

Where's Doc Brown to take Limpy "Back to the Future" so he could experience that untimely death?

Cost was 35% less than if you had insurance? Baloney...!

Doctors and hospitals who agree to accept insurance agree to lower rates, not higher. Their incentive is that that if they accept insurance they will get more patients.

Rush...you lie!

Van Susteren airs Limbaugh claim that he "might not have survived" if health scare happened after 2013 health care reform

Hey I wonder if Van Susteren ever mentions that he recieved treatment at a socialized medicine state! Oh! Oh! not to mention that he was treated by medical union employees!

I guess she forgot that! SMH!

Isn't it interesting how much mileage the Troglodytes are getting out of Rush's little "emergency"? How odd that the official mouthpiece of the Republican Party would be admitted to the hospital with mysterious chest pains just as a Healthcare Reform bill is in final consideration. Even more curious that he would hold a press conference upon his release, declaring that America's Healthcare system is perfect, and needs no reform.

Some people would say...

I have no problem with people (like Rush Limbaugh) who can offer proof of their ability to pay for health care without buying health insurance being allowed to not take coverage. But they should not advocate policies where people who need to be insured cannnot get coverage because of the problems with the current system. Rush Limbaugh and the right are condemming untold numbers of people to financial ruin for no reason except they do not like the current President or Congressional Leadership.
