Rush Limbaugh Quotes on Obamacare
Rush Limbaugh: Quotes on Obamacare
I write about politics about as often as I write about quilting. And I probably know as much about one as I do the other. I have been only mildly interested in the entire healtcare reform debate. But since yesterday marked the passage of what has been called an "historic" vote in favor of Obamacare, I thought I would listen in to Rush Limbaugh today and hear what he had to say. I am a conservative, but I can typically only take Mr. Limbaugh in small doses. But I do often admire his pointed and sometimes pungent expressions. The following quotes were written down by myself while listening to his 3 hour live radio broadcast today on March 22, 2010.

- “insurance premiums will skyrocket over the next couple years until the private insurance industry collapses and the government takes over the entire healthcare system”
- “Starting today the best healthcare system in the world is history…”
- “this is not about healthcare this is about wrecking and destroying the United States of America as we know it”
- “this whole thing has to be broomed and swept away and blown up”
- “Medicaid has just been expanded, and it is a 45 year failure”
- “We HAVE to defeat them!”
- “They know they are governing against the will of the people, and that has to have them on edge…”

- “The objective is to inflict harm on the private sector of our nation”
- “They have to be hassled and hounded and run out of office”

- “They don’t deserve to win another election EVER!”
