Christian Science Monitor: Rush Limbaugh said he'd go to Costa Rica for medical treatment if the healthcare reform touted by President Barack Obama is passed. If that happens, he'll join legions of American medical tourists who travel to this bastion of socialized medicine every year.

That fella is one Grand Ass Hat..........

Hell, I'de buy his ticket!!!!!

I would kick in only if it were one way.

Someone her volunteered to carry Limbaugh from the airport on his back.

Maybe Costa Rica could treat him for his lust for little boys

He's really starting to slip.

I would kick in only if it were one way.

I have a list...

Old, and incorrect, news....geeze. Keep up. Was a post on the front page last week.

Rush should have gone to Costa Rica for treatment of his pilondinal cyst during Vietnam fer de lance

So does anyone who accepts Medicaid, Medicare, uses a public library, went to or sent their children through public school, etc, etc.

Hey you gotta love guy Rush. He reminds me of a modern day version of Citizen Kane. When he dies down there, someday, in Costa Rican hospital he'll probably whisper that last word, "Rosebud".

'...he'll probably whisper that last word, "Rosebud".

Rosebud

Good one Americanunity, I spit my coffee out laughing at that one,

"legions of American medical tourists who travel to this bastion of socialized medicine every year"

except that medical tourists don't use the socialized medical system. They use the PRIVATE cash-only providers. People also travel to Mexico, India and the Philippines for the same reason.

Sorry to spoil your Rush Bash!

what would the lib-conservative paradigm be without ol' fatboy rush's shit-filled ass to fill his side's biggest bully chair?

Vernons right!!

Money doesn't talk.......it swears!!!

The Supreme Court told us all so about a month ago!!!

who is your ass filled with?

Thought you were a "Christian", VERN

You have a very dirty mouth and a sour disposition. Nice "testimony" of your faith *sarcasm*.

Well, at least you didn't whine about Bush again

Vernon's faith is Bush's fault! The Devil made him do it!

(Seriously, some of our Christians here count among the least forgiving and most verbally cruel people I've "met." But maybe that's pure Internet persona. Sure makes me wonder, though.)

Leave it to a dumbass like vern to miss the entire point. It doesn't matter if Flush is paying cash; it's a socialized system and it's better than what we have here in the US.

He should move to The Sudan

Costa Rica has always ranked extremely high on the life expectancy charts.

Japan leads the way - and most especially Okinawa, with the highest percentage of 100 yr-olds in the world. The common thread among all the healthiest countries is diet/lifestyle.

Far down longevity list is USA. We spend FAR, FAR, FAR more per capita on drugs and medical interventions in this country than ANY of those with much higher life expectancies. It's ass-backwards here. More DRUGS and surgeries are not the answers to improved health.

Diets full of refined/fake/artificially preserved/colored/fat and sugar laden foods will ALWAYS wreak havoc on functional health.

So - we talk about throwing 100's of billions here and a trillion there at "health care". It's all total smokescreen bullshit. Until the entire paradigm shifts toward fueling our cells with actual building blocks they need to function - and I'm not holding my breath - real health is totally out of reach.

that's cause taking drugs is easy. americans have become a very lazy lot

What a total distortion of what he said. You libs just can't quit spreading false shit.

Come for the implant, stay for the little boys.

No, Dave, you are the one missing the point.

Countries like Costa Rica have two parallel health systems. The cash business is different doctors, different hospitals and different technology -- all vastly superior compared to what the peasants get.

Rush Limbaugh is not going to sit on a hard plastic chair in a hot, dusty waiting room.

He'll be at the gated hospital across town, enjoying air conditioning and ESPN while he is treated by American-trained doctors.

It doesn't matter if Flush is paying cash; it's a socialized system

Wait, what? I thought all medicine was somehow magically free under socialized medicine.

Are you suggesting there are still costs? This contradicts what I hear from the right about all the libs thinking all the lazy people and criminals are entitled to free health care.
