Rush Limbaugh shocked listeners to his radio program on Monday by announcing he has been diagnosed with “advanced stage lung cancer.” Limbaugh claimed he vacillated about going public: “I like this program to be about you and the things that matter to all of us…there has been an incredible bond that has developed between all of you and me.” Well, right away leftwing haters celebrated, and that’s when patriots made them regret it.
On his show on Monday, Limbaugh told listeners he was diagnosed with advanced lung cancer and might miss time on the air while he receives treatment.
“So I have to tell you something today that I wish I didn’t have to tell you,” he said. “And it’s, it’s a struggle for me because I had to inform my staff earlier today … I have been diagnosed with advanced lung cancer.”
“I wish I didn’t have to tell you this, and I thought about not telling anybody,” Rush added. “I thought about trying to do this without anybody knowing, ’cause I don’t like making things about me. But there are going to be days that I’m not gonna be able to be here because I’m undergoing treatment or I’m reacting to treatment, and I know that that would inspire all kinds of curiosity with people wondering what’s going on.”
Rush’s on-air right-hand man, Bo Snerdley, is African-American, which is rich considering the haters are accusing him of being “racist.” Snerdley reacted on Twitter right after Limbaugh made the announcement:
“Those of you who are listening to the Rush Limbaugh show now. Pray with us. Thank you. God Bless you, Rush Limbaugh. Love you so much Rush,” tweeted Snerdley.

However, leftwing losers are proving just how disturbed and sick they can truly be. Their sheer hatred of Rush Limbaugh is based on lies the mainstream media have reported as facts and on the ridiculous rhetoric that leftists spew about Limbaugh.
They hate him because he speaks the truth.
“Rush Limbaugh has spend decades spewing dangerous anti-Black racism. Now he has cancer… I know we shouldn’t celebrate one’s misfortunes…. but #PartyOverHere,” tweeted Tariq Nasheed, who is some infamous Black Lives Matter loser.
“I’ve listened to him many times and have never heard him say a racist word. You celebrating the fact that Rush Limbaugh has cancer is truly despicable and disgusting. You should be ashamed of yourself,” tweeted Alexis Haridopolos responding to Nasheed.

“I’m so sorry for lung cancer, no one deserves Rush Limbaugh. I wish him the best medical care he’s worked on denying to others,” tweeted Nick Jack Pappas, who claims to be a “comedian.”
“Pretty sure Rush has given millions – and help raise many more millions & spent considerable energy, over several years, on promoting funding and research to treat leukemia. I for one will be praying for him and his oncoming treatment, and, while I’m at it, I’ll pray for you,” tweeted “Gumpling” responding to Pappas’ disgusting tweet.

“It’s not cool to joke about Rush Limbaugh having cancer. You might jinx it,” tweeted Johnny McNulty, another blue checkmark loser who identifies as “he/him” and as a “writer and comedian.”
“Wow you he/him guys don’t play around when it comes to wishing death on those you don’t agree with, do you?” tweeted “Son of Taris” responding to McNulty.

“Rush Limbaugh is, without a doubt, one of the most hateful, awful people of the last half-century, and one who had one of the most negative impacts possible on this country. It’s only fitting that this cancer upon the world should be stricken by it,” tweeted Jon Tayler, another leftist who claims to be an unemployed sportswriter, who used to work for Sports Illustrated (SI).
“Rush has raised millions in charity for leukemia/lymphoma research and for Marine Corps-Law Enforcement orphans. What have you done? Oh yeah, you were a low T jock sniffer for SI. DIAF,” tweeted “Wonkish Rogue” responding to Jon Tayler.

“Mr. President, Please make Rush an honored guest at the State of the Union. If he can make it, it would be an appropriate acknowledgment for a lifetime of advocacy for liberty & freedom. Trailblazers don’t come along often. If they did the trail would’ve already been there,” tweeted Dan Bongino.

Rush Limbaugh revolutionized talk radio.
He revolutionized the conservative movement, and he got a ton of flack from the GOP elite for embracing Donald Trump as a candidate. Limbaugh started his radio program 31 years ago. At that time there were zero talk radio shows for conservative Americans. Over time, Limbaugh became the most valuable player for rightwing causes by speaking to Americans about the dangers of socialism and the truth of how dangerous the left could be if they ever got total control.
Advanced stage lung cancer is a tough diagnosis. Limbaugh expressed his heartfelt thoughts to his listeners:
I’ve had so much support from family and friends during this that it’s just been tremendous. I told the staff today that I have a deeply personal relationship with God that I do not proselytize about.
But I do, and I have been working that relationship (chuckles) tremendously, which I do regularly anyway, but I’ve been focused on it intensely for the past couple of weeks.
But over the years, a lot of people have been very nice telling me how much this program has meant to them. But whatever that is, it pales in comparison to what you all have meant to me. And I can’t describe this. But I know you’re there every day. I can see you. It’s strange how, but I know you’re there.
I know you’re there in great numbers, and I know that you understand everything I say. The rest of the world may not when they hear it expressed a different way, but I know that you do. You’ve been one of the greatest sources of confidence that I’ve had in my life. So I hope I will be talking about this as little as necessary in the coming days.
Rush closed the show Monday saying he expects to be back on Thursday: “So I’ll be back here. I hope I’ll be back Thursday. If not, it will be as soon as I can — and know that every day I’m not here, I’ll be thinking about you and missing you. Thank you very much.”
We know all patriots are with him in spirit and are offering prayers so Almighty God may support, strengthen, and give him peace, as he fights this battle.
