Another reason that the health care bill desperately needs to pass.
Limbaugh ‘leaving the country’ if health reform passes
By David Edwards and Daniel Tencer
Tuesday, March 9th, 2010 -- 12:48 pm
For years, promises to leave the United States in the wake of an undesirable political development have been the domain of liberals. Celebrities such as Alec Baldwin, Sean Penn and Susan Sarandon all at some point suggested they would move to Canada if a Republican won the White House.
(There's even a Facebook group around to motivate them, complete with a helpful link to Canada's department of citizenship and immigration.)
While most of those were empty threats, there are notable exceptions: Film director Robert Altman moved to France after George W. Bush's victory in 2000; Law & Order star Michael Moriarty shipped off to Canada well before that.
But now the decidedly non-liberal Rush Limbaugh has made a similar move, telling his audience he will move to Costa Rica if health care reform becomes law. And now the only question that remains is whether Limbaugh will make good on his word, or join the ranks of the empty-promisers.

Nah. He's just blowing more methane to get his ridiculous and brain-damaged audience all upset that they might lose their beloved and junked-out, pedophilic, limp-dicked icon. Rush isn't going anywhere, but wouldn't it be great if he would? Costa Rica is nice; they have bushmasters there and perhaps he might sit on one.

Yeah, but he hedged that by saying, "...if this passes and it’s five years from now and all that stuff gets implemented... — I am leaving the country. I’ll go to Costa Rica."
Costa Rica, hmmm? One of the most progressive and peaceful countries in Latin America, and the "happiest country" on the globe. With no military and with a Democratic Socialist President. |

Another example of this guy's lunacy here. |

| Oh, and Costa Rica has a national, universal health care system, one of the finest in Latin America. But after his time in a fine Hawaiian hospital, Rush already knows how great socialized medicine can be. |

Yeah. A couple of years back, he took a vacation in the Dominican Republic with a bottle of someone else's Viagra. At that time, the DR was known for child prostitutes of either gender.

Ol' Hawgjaw do love him some socialized health care, that is, as long as no US citizen's getting it but himself.
Right-wing radio talker Rush Limbaugh must be confused.
During a recent broadcast, he vowed to "go to Costa Rica" if President Obama is successful in passing his health reform legislation. Most assumed he meant the statement in the vein of his promise to leave New York City over its tax rates, which he did. Now Limbaugh is saying he will not leave the U.S., as in, move away. Instead, Limbaugh claims that he will simply "go to Costa Rica" for his medical care.
Interestingly enough, even as the Republican icon has made many a dollar damning proposals for public health care in the United States, his future hospital bed in Costa Rica will be watched over by the same "socialists" he's so known for deriding.
Costa Rica, you see, has socialized health care operated by a government insurance monopoly, which provides a remarkably high quality of service for a fraction of the costs routinely seen in the United States.
"Costa Rica’s public health insurance system, commonly known as the Caja, is available country-wide to all citizens and legal residents," the Costa Rican government's Web site explains. "There are ten major public hospitals – four in San Jose, including the Children’s Hospital – affiliated with the Caja. For non-emergencies and everyday medical care, small clinics, known as EBAIS (pronounced ay-vy-ice), are located in almost every community."

He certainly puts the "hippo" in "hypocrite," does he not?
