Topic: Limbaugh "I will leave US if health care passes"

here's what the MobFather said...it would help...if you'd listen to his show... "Well, if doctors are not permitted to opt out of the government insurance pool and so forth, Medicare, Medicaid, whatever it is, and if they're not allowed to establish a private practice with private sector patients paying their own way, then I'll go to Costa Rica." Well, that has been turned into I'm going to leave the country for Costa Rica and move there if Obamacare passes. I've had all kinds of reporters: "Are you serious? Do you really mean this?" So I've had to patiently explain today to people who do not bother to stay informed on this stuff what the genesis and the primary context of my comment was. I said, "Look, there are insurance companies who don't want to be put out of business." We've talked to them on the program. I've talked to them privately. They are establishing health care clinics with quality doctors in places like Costa Rica. They're going to continue to sell policies to people who have the ability to fly down there and get treatment. If I have to get thrown into this massive government health care insurance business and end up going to the driver's license office every day when I need to go to the doctor, yeah, I'll go to Costa Rica for treatment, not move there. So they're just in a tizzy out there, between Costa Rica and Eric Massa. So -- (laughing) -- it's going to be a fun day. Heck, it already is a fun day.

so noone has figured this out that political talk TV/radio host defend their party and insult the other party,it's what they get paid to do and Rush is laughing all the way to the bank and then McDonalds and while he is eating his Big Mac he's going over to his pills dealer for a hook up Hmm. Pity you can't also include names like Rachel Maddow, Bill Maher, Janeane Garofalo, or AL FRANKEN. You've obviously intentionally overlooked the foam-at-the-mouth rantings of the thankfully-extinct 'AirAmerika' (even after The Gorebasm's 'investment' failed to keep it on the air). And how could you overlook shills like Mikhail Moore, Keith Dildoman, or Chris Matthews (Mister 'Thrill-Up-My-Leg') ... Funny how selectively permissible it is in your universe for only ONE side to be given the power to insult others ... but that's par for the course when we're in LibWhackLand ... i just used Rush cause thats who the OP was refering to.life is to short to sit infront of a TV and listen to jerk offs basically jerking off,and getting paid for it.their opinions are doing their job though to bad they are clueless on how to fix the problems in our country,and if and when they do then maybe i'll listen

I don't know. I'll just tell you this, if this passes and it's five years from now and all that stuff gets implemented -- I am leaving the country. I'll go to Costa Rica. I say we all pitch in and see if he'll leave now... Maybe we can get him to take Hannity, O'Riely and Beck with him... I like how you're think'in.....

#1 way Conservatives use to out debate liberals in an online debate---create their own wikipedia accounts and write their own facts.

Costa Rica, no. I'd rather see Rush live in North Korea for the rest of his days. It would be poetic justice.

people like Rush thrive on controversy and publicity and left wing hyperventilators aid them by making threads just like this one. True that.

A Ticket for Rush Two thoughtful guys in Brooklyn want to help Rush Limbaugh make good on his promise to move to Costa Rica - or at least go there to enjoy their universal health care - if Congress passed health reform. They are accepting $1 donations toward a first-class ticket. If Rush refuses their offer, they will donate the take to Planned Parenthood. A noble endeavor. "Who are we? We are Mike and Patrick. We are two dudes living in Brooklyn. We don't have health insurance." http://www.commondreams.org/further/2010/03/22-3

If Democrats didn't have all the incentive they needed to pass health care reform already, then conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh may have provided the final push they needed by vowing to flee the country if the reform bill is passed. Responding to a caller who asked him where he would go for health care if Congress enacts reform, Limbaugh replied, I don't know. I'll just tell you this, if this passes and it's five years from now and all that stuff gets implemented -- I am leaving the country. I'll go to Costa Rica.

Do you know how ignorant you people sound? LOL He never said he would move. He said he would go to there for health care. I believe it was posted earlier in this thread.
