Pence tweeted that Rush Limbaugh is a National Treasure

It's one thing to not wish him suffering of cancer, but Pence's tweet is ridiculous. Limbaugh is no "National Treasure" (note Pence's use of capitalization for emphasis). He's a radio host and hatemonger. Pence is such a fraud.

@Mike_Pence
Rush Limbaugh is a National Treasure who has made a difference on the airwaves of America for 30 years. Rush, Karen and I will be joining millions across this Country in praying for your swift recovery. God Bless You!

They have no sense of character honesty or respect for this country or its principles.

Because I would tell him to go straight there. National treasure, that's a joke. Millions across the country are praying for him. Yep, they're praying him all right, praying for him to finally be gone.

National Treasure, right? Nicholas Cage? Great fun!

Oh, Mikey? That's not what you are talking about? Rush Limbaugh? Seriously? He's the bottom layer of scum in a fetid and festering pond.

Since when do opioid addicts become national treasures? And just what WAS he doing in the Dominican Republic with the Viagra?

Enquiring minds want to know.

You probably can't relate.

I also really like Christains who actually follow the teachings of christ, I know you can't relate to that either.

We don't Wish Rush ill, we wish all the people he inflicted his hate on, good mental health and recovery.
