NY Daily News - "Rush Limbaugh declares his health is fine - and so is nation's health care system"

[TomCADem]

Of course, Rush Limbaugh would use his own health situation, and the fact that he can afford ready access to health care, to attack health care reform and declare that there is nothing wrong with the current health care system:

Conservative radio loudmouth Rush Limbaugh learned this week there's nothing wrong with his heart - and there's nothing wrong with the nation's health care system.

At a New Year's Day news conference in Honolulu, Limbaugh said Friday that tests revealed nothing medically wrong with his heart.

Severe chest pains landed him in a Hawaii hospital Wednesday.

"The pain was real, and they don't know what caused it," Limbaugh said.

Doctors said he did not have a heart attack and he doesn't suffer from heart disease.

Turning from his health to politics, Limbaugh declared Friday he got the best health treatment in the world "right here in the United States of America."

"I don't think there's one thing wrong with the United States health system," Limbaugh said.

1. Rush Limbaugh, with the money he's already earned from his lucrative contract,

could have flown in an entire medical team and paid the surgeon's annual salary and written a check for a complete heart transplant ... and had plenty left over to use to campaign against making him pay another dime in taxes ...

so yeah, he's "just another average Joe", like all his listeners who have to make do with their lower and lower wages ...
