113. Rush has cancer?
Mon Feb 3, 2020, 05:07 PM
Feb 2020

So what's for lunch???

How ironic since Limbaugh IS a cancer. His single good attribute was that he's a Steelers fan but that hardly makes up for all the hatred he spewed and the damage he's done to the national psyche.

Hey, Satan...you got one headed your way soon.
