A CBS report out of Hawaii says that Rush Limbaugh was rushed to the hospital in serious condition after experiencing chest pains. The conservative talk radio host was vacationing in Hawaii for the holidays.Limbaugh was taken by ambulance from his hotel to Queen's Medical Center in Honolulu at around 2:40 p.m. local time, which was just over three hours ago. There is no word on his present condition.
Updated 7:20 a.m.: "Rush was admitted to and is resting comfortably in a Honolulu hospital today, after suffering chest pains," according to a statement from "The Rush Limbaugh Program."
This is not the first time Rush Limbaugh has experienced health problems. In 2003 a botched surgery left him with severe back pains, which led to an abuse of prescription painkillers oxycodone and hydrocodone.
"Rush appreciates your prayers and well wishes, and he will keep you updated via RushLimbaugh.com."
A spokesman told ABC News it is unknown when Rush will go back to work.

Hey Jeff,
There is a place in heaven for Rush. You on the other hand are going straight to HELL.
God bless Rush limbaugh
ahhh yes Jeff, another fine example of how sweet you liberals really are!
God have mercy on your hateful soul. Shame on you!
I am praying for Rush and whoever you are I want you to know I'd pray for you, too. I'm 64 and life is too short to hate. God bless Rush and you, too!
God Bless You Rush!!! Get well soon!!!!
So sympathetic, and they want to run our Healthcare system!
Jeff, I like Rush Limbaugh, but even with people who I disagree with I would never wish death on them, my dad has heart problems I know what he has gone through I would never wish this on anyone and to invoke God on him just shows how ignorant you are. Whenever I hear of someone who is in serious condition whether I agree with them or not I pray that they make a full recovery, my prayers are with Rush tonight.
Please God let Rush be fine. Libtards like Jeff give me heart pain...
