Travel Agency Gives Rush Limbaugh One Way Ticket to Costa Rica
Oddly, Rush Limbaugh has not kept his pledge to move to Costa Rica if the health care bill passed. As of this morning, when President Obama signed the historic legislation, Limbaugh still appeared to be transmitting a radio broadcast from his U.S. studio.

“The sick feeling in the pit of the stomach. We all feel it!” he assured a caller on his show.

No one should have to feel that way. And today, a travel agency called Joan’s Travel Partners has volunteered to put Limbaugh out of his misery, offering to pay for a one way ticket to Costa Rica.

Said Joan LaPore, the travel agency owner, “As a service to the country my travel agency is more than willing to send Rush Limbaugh ONE WAY to Costa Rica or the country of his choice –as long as it is off American soil.”

He might have said it, but would never act on it. I think if someone had made a wager as to whether or not the Health Care bill would pass, he probably would have reneged on his bet.

6. He'll need a very large aircraft.
I hope the airline has properly planned for his demands His posse will clearly need a very large transport plane.

And that's just for his sacks of Viagra and OxyContin!

11. Push him. Shove him. Put him on the plane. Revoke his citizenship.
Don't forget to get the flag back before he leaves.

12. That woman is a Patriot!
Can we help get him to the airport? Maybe he's too traumatized to leave on his own steam. He would never tell a lie, would he?

13. unfortunately, if you believe his word (and who does?), he said
Edited on Wed Mar-24-10 07:31 AM by zbdent
"In five years, ..." (which, by the way, would be $100 million later)

he also tried to weasel out of it by claiming he'd never said he'd leave the country, just that he'd leave it for procedures. But that's also bullshit, because I heard the clip and read the transcript ... and he was saying he'd leave the country ... no qualifiers.
