I assume he’s trying some last stand treatment or he’s at the end.

He’s been out days before, even a week, but I haven’t noticed him out multiple weeks.

Pulling for that talent on loan from God. However, should God call him home, I am forever grateful.

Damn, sad to hear. I hope he's just taking time to rest and come back.

I came across his old appearance on the Haney Project. Still can't get over how different he is when not on the air

Years ago I listened to a friend of Rush’s give a brief interview. They often golfed and dined together. He said Rush always would check the tab to make sure the wait staff was tipped well and often left $100 tips.

Tune in to see if he’s back and it’s been the longest stretch I can recall. Don’t want to hear a weakened, fading version of Rush & I doubt he’d want to sign off like that either.

He’s truly in a class by himself.

I've enjoyed listening to Rush since the 90's. There will never be another like him.

I’m missing him too. Hope he isn’t feeling too bad and hope he gets behind the mic soon. Mark Steyn is my favorite fill-in though.

He has given millions a voice. He has said what we were all thinking and stood the guff from the left for years so it could be heard. Like a prophet he said it loud and clear and alienated the powers that be. God bless him and if his time has come Oh Lord, welcome him to heaven with open arms.


He has fought a good fight, finished the course, and kept the faith. We are grateful for his life. Let us honor it by standing for what is right and decent.

true dat - I am steeled to have him muster up the strength to do one more goodbye show - I tune in every day to see if this is the day.

Praying for his complete recovery of course but primarily for comfort and peace. I don't think we will hear a personal appearance unless he can be in full voice.

Sad times - he has been a stalwart of reason and logic for thirty years - still never forget the first time I heard his name, nor especially the first time I happened upon his radio show while on a vacation up around the Great Lakes. I had been looking for him on late night talk show circuit where I first heard Larry King mention him with an insult.

God bless Rush - talent on loan from GAWWWWDDD!!

I don’t think it’s looking too good. I’ve heard multiple callers offer prayers.

/\ THAT'S IT!! /\

I had given up searching for him on late nite radio - and was just searching for something on am dial up in Michigan. Came across this wonderful voice saying exactly what I was thinking at that moment!! I stayed on that station and soon he identified himself as Rush Limbaugh.

Been hooked ever since.

Was just having this conversation with my wife 10 minutes ago. She has had chemo and we talked about his situation. I think we are witnessing the end but I hope I am wrong. Miracles happen every day.

Whatever happens, happens. We are/were very fortunate to have him.

in 2008 when the downturn in the economy happened they had a female collar call into his show telling him how her vehicle was repossessed because she couldn’t pay the note anymore and she was worried about getting her kids to school and getting back-and-forth to work. Then Rush tells her to go to her local Chevy dealership and pick out any car she wanted besides a truck or a Corvette and that he would buy it and he did.

She called back a couple of weeks later to confirm that he had actually bought the vehicle for her and it was awesome.

I am really going to miss him when his time comes. They will never be another one like him

I have to laugh at the timing of Bill Gates going on 60 minutes talking about climate change and the future and then Texas gets hit with a massive snowstorm. It’s like Rush always says, these climate change zealots always pick the worst time to start yapping about the warming planet.

All signs are the talent that is on loan is being recalled and the man is going home soon.

My prayers are that he stays but I understand that we must all go when we are called.

I was fortunate to have been a listener since '04 and have learned a lot.
