Have no doubt about it: Film critic Roger Ebert is no fan of Rush Limbaugh. The unabashed liberal reeled off a series of one-liners on Twitter against the radio talk show host over the weekend, in the wake of Limbaugh's hospital visit due to chest pains.
A sampling:
"Rush: Hawaii is the only country where the Hawaiian shirts come in S, M, L, XL, Rush, and Sumo."
"Rush: Nurse at snack time: 'You have nuts?' 'No!' 'You have dates?' 'Hey, if I had nuts, I'd have dates!' Ah...Har! Har! Har!"
"Rush: Stuck in this hospital room watching TV, I really miss Lou Dobbs. All the Oriental nurses are U.S. citizens, though."
"Rush: Our US health care system is the best in the world. The nurses here in Hawaii keep offering me lays."
"Rush: 'They told me aloha means hello. Only now do they tell me it also means goodbye. Everybody keeps using it around me.'"

Ebert making fat jokes is like Helen Thomas making ugly jokes.
Once again the left’s classlessness on full display. I am so not amused. Too bad he doesn’t know his @$$ from a hole in the ground about rating movies and juding by his most unfunny jokes his judgement is also on full display too!
Roger Ebert is a FRAUD.
He admitted when he got caught a year or two ago that he DID review an entire movie on the basis of a short (10 minute or less) clip and left the theater.
Phone it in.
Same as he’s doing here. Hasn’t seen Rush to even know how large his girth is or isn’t. Doesn’t listen to his radio show.
Just blogs into a liberal echochamber. What a pathetic old man.
Music critic.
At least a movie critic may save you from wasting 90 minutes of your life watching something blah.
Music critic? Seriously?
“Cheap” Limbaugh jokes.
Beyond being “inappropriate” at the time, they weren’t even accurate to his size.
Good satire has a sting of truth to it.
