35 Undeniable Truths.
There is a distinct singular American culture - rugged individualism and self-reliance - which made America great.

The vast majority of the rich in this country did not inherit their wealth; they earned it. They are the country's achievers, producers, and job creators.

No nation has ever taxed itself into prosperity.

Evidence refutes liberalism.

There is no such thing as a New Democrat.

The Earth's eco-system is not fragile.

Character matters; leadership decends from character.

The most beautiful thing about a tree is what you do with it after you cut it down.

Ronald Reagan was the greatest president of the twentieth century.

The 1980's was not a decade of greed but a decade of prosperity; it was the longest period of peacetime growth in American history.

Abstinence prevents sexually transmitted disease and pregnancy - every time it's tried.

Condoms only work during the school year.

Poverty is not the root ("rut") cause of crime.

There's a simple way to solve the crime problem: obey the law; punish those who do not.

If you commit a crime, you are guilty.

Women should not be allowed on juries where the accused is a stud.

The way to improve our schools is not more money, but the reintroduction of moral and spiritual values, as well as the four "R's": reading, 'riting, 'rithmatic, and Rush.

I am not arrogant.

My first 35 Undeniable Truths are still undeniably true.

There is a God.

There is something wrong when critics say the problem with America is too much religion.

Morality is not defined by individual choice.

The only way liberals win national elections is by pretending they're not liberals.

Feminism was established as to allow unattractive women easier access to the mainstream of society.

Follow the money. When somebody says, " It's not the money," it's always the money.

Liberals attempt through judicial activism what they cannot win at the ballot box.

Using federal dollars as a measure, our cities have not been neglected, but poisoned with welfare dependency funds.

Progress is not striving for economic justice or fairness, but economic growth.

Liberals measure compassion by how many people are given welfare. Conservatives measure compassion by how many people no longer need it.

Compassion is no substitute for justice.

The culture war is between the winners and those who think they're losers who want to become winners. The losers think the only way they can become winners is by banding together all the losers and then empowering a leader of the losers to make things right for them.

The Los Angeles riots were not caused by the Rodney King verdict. The Los Angeles riots were caused by rioters.

You could afford your house without your government - if it weren't for your government.

Words mean things.

Too many Americans can't laugh at themselves anymore.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rush Limbaugh's updated "35 Undeniable Truths of Life" as read on his nationally syndicated radio show on Friday, February 18, 1994.

Some Rush Stats Born: January 12, 1951 at Southeast Missouri Hospital Color of Eyes: Hazel Education: Graduated Cape Central High School 1969 Attended Southeast Missouri State University 1st Job: Shined shoes at College Barber Shop when he was 13 years old As a teen noted for: Imitating voices Telling stories Hanging out with friends at home DJ (Rusty Sharpe) on KGMO Debate Club Football 1967 Voice of Democracy Disliked school Rush started his nationally syndicated show in 1988 with 56 radio stations. In 1994 he boasted 600 stations. He was inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame in 1993. Author of Best Sellers:

1992 - "The Way Things Ought to Be" 1993 - "See, I Told You So"

Back to top

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Family Briefs Rush H. Limbaugh III comes from a family of conservative, high powered attorneys. Grandfather, Rush H. Limbaugh, Sr. served as President Eisenhower's Ambassador to India. An accomplished attorney, he continued practicing law after celebrating his milestone century birthday. Rush Sr. died in 1996 at 104 years old. Rush's uncle, Stephen N. Limbaugh, Sr. is a federal judge appointed by Ronald Reagan and his first cousin, Stephen N. Limbaugh, Jr. sits on the Missouri Supreme Court.

His brother David practices law in Cape Girardeau. He is with the law firm founded by his grandfather, Limbaugh, Russell, Payne & Howard Law Firm. David also serves as Rush's legal representative.

Rush credits his father, the late Rush H. Limbaugh, Jr. for his political philosophy. Rush learned at an early age to speak his mind. He was a champion debater. Whatever he believed in he contended passionately. At age 13 Rush developed his dialogue skills while shining shoes at College Barbershop. He could hold his own on any political issue of the day. Although his father did not immediately approve of Rush's career choice, he lived to see the triumphs of his role in the political arena.

Millie adored being the mother of the country's most popular radio talk show host. She passsed away in March of 2000. She said that her son was controversial and provocative. In support of her son she said, "I am 'The' Ditto Head!" She spent evenings spinning the satellite dish trying to keep abreast of political news. Her favorite program was? "Rush Limbaugh" of course!

Rush's admittedly checkered career began in his hometown, Cape Girardeau, Missouri, where he spun records at KGMO as "Rusty Sharpe." Although his outspoken ways have taken him from job to job, he held onto his never-say-quit attitude. He has broken numerous broadcasting records while creating the image he has today.

I'm on my 1 .. 2 .. 3 .. 4th harddrive recording Rush now - the first was a 40, then a 60 followed by an 80 and now a 160 GB - and that's not counting some of the early cassettes (from '91) or the cassettes from 98 - 2000 ...

These two might come back to haunt him:

My wife and I saw Rush live and in person during the early nineties. The "Rush to Excellence" tour. The venue sold out and people were standing. He was his usual excellent self. Can't wait for his return to the golden EIB mic. Nobody replaces Rush...they just sub for him :o)

Best wishes and regards for Rush

I hope we are not rushing Rushs return.

Dittoes. I'd have rather heard he'd return when he & his physician agreed he'd be able than as if this it's a train schedule.

Have you heard anything about Marta.

Last I heard (unconfirmed rumor) was that she was trying to avoid supboenas from the State of Florida.

I think read that her magazine folded...

I thought that had happened a long time ago (Rush hasn't plugged Marta's 'zine for a few years).

Prayers for Rush

Coincidence?

I heard he is returning on the 17th. Looking forward to listening to him again (his substitutes are okay, but they are NOT Rush).

Thank you for the wonderful pictures and the background. I saw Winston S. Churchill, grandson of the Primate Minister, interviewed on FNC yesterday morning and couldn't help think that when he looked down, something about his pose reminded me a LOT of Rush. Both from families of character! Maybe that's the similarity!
