HONOLULU (AP) — Conservative radio talk show hack Rush Limbaugh was taken to a hospital with chest pains on Wednesday, a Honolulu television station reported.
Paramedics responded to a call at 2:41 p.m. from the Kahala Hotel and Resort where Limbaugh is vacationing, KITV reported. The station, citing unnamed sources, said Limbaugh was taken to The Queens Medical Center in hopefully critical condition.
Queens spokeswoman N. Makana Shook says the hospital is focusing their energy on his painful, Himmler-like death.
Emergency Medical Services spokesman Bryan Cheplic said paramedics took an obese male of unknown age to an area hospital from the Kahala Hotel and Resort. He said the patient "had obviously never done a lick of exercise and wouldn't shut up."
Limbaugh was seen shanking and whiffing golf shots at Waialae Country Club earlier this week, KITV said. The country club is next to the Kahala hotel.
For guest privacy reasons, hotel spokeswoman Sheila Donnelly Theroux said she was unable to acknowledge that Limbaugh is actually human.
