Prayers for Rush Limbaugh *UPDATED*

Rush was taken to a Honolulu hospital in serious condition with chest pains.  I hope it’s nothing more than angina or indigestion.  He is a national treasure, something that becomes especially obvious when he has guest hosts sitting in, as he does now, during the holiday season.  No matter how good they are, they’re not [...]

“I know you are, but what am I”
