Actually you are, in ther words of the Maha Rushie himself...
el wrongo! According to the un-authorized biography of Mr. Limbaugh written by a liberal reporter from the New York Post(in which every attempt to find "the bad" came up limp)Rush had a condition known as a piloidinal cyst. In other words, for those of you with fake-sounding arab names, it was a cyst on his butt!
You are living proof that a little knowledge is a dangerous thing!

Yeah, we had a Lot of those in the Army. Most of them got kicked out, as privates.

Well, I take it that you didn't take time to do any research on this.
If you had you would have found out that this was a very serious condition to the military and was enough for a medical deferrment.
See this quote.
"This seemingly minor disease process has physicians baffled, as demonstrated by the multiple theories of its etiology and management in the current literature. Congenital and acquired theories of etiology have been proposed. For a time, the entity was referred to as Jeep rider's disease. It caused more than 80,000 US Army soldiers to be hospitalized during WWII and accounted for 4.2 million sick days. Much of the information we have about the disease comes from the military."
This came from the following link:

Note that it is mentioned as possibly being congential.
I remember hearing Rush mention that one of his relatives had the same problem.
