Rush Limbaugh Announces Cancer Diagnosis — Blue-Check Twitter Leftists Show How AWFUL They Are
Rush Limbaugh, on his program yesterday made an intensely personal announcement.
He is facing a tough fight with ‘advanced’ lung cancer. How the Left responded was… instructive.
He isn’t moping or crying about it. He is just stating things how they are. And since he knew the news would eventually come out he decided he’d be the one to tell us.
Moments like these are where we see the difference between the people who make up the movements on the Left and the Right.
The Left loves to tell the world that THEY are our moral betters. The compassionate ones. The ones who CARE, while we on the Right are all immoral bastards.
And then someone announces a serious illness, or injury, or a prominent political figure dies.
Jerry Nadler is not going to be on any Republican’s Christmas card list. But when he announced he’d be with his wife in hospice, we respected that personal tragedy, and many offered condolences. When the Dems’ favorite judge, the ‘Notorious RBG’ took ill, some of us wondered about her ability to continue fulfilling her duties, but we did not wish her ill. If anything, we wished her a full recovery and a quiet retirement with her family when that day came.
Compare that with the glee Democrats showed when Rand Paul was assaulted by a neighbor; in the BernieBro’s politically-motivated baseball diamond assassination attempt that very nearly cost Scalise his life; in the gleeful gloating in the death of a David Koch — who was no friend of Trump’s, but that didn’t matter. He donated to *gasp* conservative causes. That makes him irredeemable.
Robert Byrd, on the other hand, is a ‘good guy’ who had EVERYONE show up at his funeral. Never mind the fact that he used to be a recruiter for the KKK.
That’s the personalized hatred and loathing that has become baked into the ‘Liberal’ half of America, where the Personal is Political has been taken just a tad too far. They can’t separate the fight against the ideas from the hatred of the person. And that’s pretty sad.
But they contend that Republicans are somehow responsible for the coarsening of political culture — as Bernie Bro staffers talk about chucking Bricks and burning MSNBC reporters alive if their guy doesn’t with the nomination.
Let’s check in on how the Leftosphere is reacting to the news of Rush Limbaugh’s cancer scare:
It's not cool to joke about Rush Limbaugh having cancer. You might jinx it.

Is Rush Limbaugh an odious, white supremacist, scum of the Earth who’s contributed to the racist zeitgeist of America? Yes.
But should we truly celebrate the possibility of his death? Also, yes.

Seeing a lot of people celebrating the news about Rush Limbaugh. And I just want to say good. Carry on.

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.

Charles Coughlin was the Rush Limbaugh of the Great Depression. 30 million tuned in as he railed against the New Deal (socialism), embraced fascism, and spewed anti-Semitic rhetoric.
Few remember him because he wasn't a builder he was a wrecker.
History is a harsh mistress.

Rush Limbaugh has spend decades spewing dangerous anti-Black racism.
Now he has cancer…
I know we shouldn't celebrate one's misfortunes….

“He disagrees with my politics… I hope he dies.’
How very ‘progressive’ of these people. How very ‘humanitarian’ and not-at-all-fascist of them.
Yeah, that ‘coarsening of politics’ must be coming from the right.
No other possible explanation presents itself.
We’ve all seen the dishonest games the left have played with the power they’re entrusted with, they’re obviously unworthy of that trust.
But what about 2020? Could a moral person pull a lever for Trump with their integrity intact? Would Jesus himself vote for Trump? We’re glad you asked. There’s a brand new book that covers precisely that question:
“Would Jesus Vote For Trump?” by Doug Giles and Brandon Vallorani.
Would Jesus ever choose someone, with a less than stellar past, to be a leader? Would Jesus be cool with how Trump blasts CNN, The Left, and his feckless ‘compadres’ on The Right? What about Health Care? Would the Great Physician give Trump’s opposition to ObamaCare the ‘two thumbs up?’ Find out in this BEST-SELLER!
