I watched the whole thing tonight. He looked very surprised. I have, unbelievably, never listened to his show. I entered adulthood in liberal Massachusetts, and I remember hearing Howard Stern trash him, while I listened to the radio on my way to work...so I said to myself...hmm...sounds bad.
More recently I have heard snippets of his shows on the news, and when I learned that he had stage 4 lung cancer, I felt for him. I have a friend with stage 3B lung cancer, and he is going through hell. And please believe me...I wouldn't even wish that kind of hell on Adam Schitt who really deserves a rather hefty kick in the rear with a 200 pound boot.
At any rate, the President said that Rush Limbaugh did an incredible amount of charity work, and helped a LOT of people, and provided them with inspiration, and that was the reason for awarding the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
I am glad. I know that Rush Limbaugh is a controversial figure, but when you know you probably have a very slim chance to live, and you know even that might not be for long, it is wonderful to have a lifetime of work so publicly appreciated. I wish I could do something similar for my friend.

@MistyCee You obviously do not know Rush is deaf, and even if he was told, he could not know what was said
@sunsporter1649 I didn't know that. I haven't listened to him in 20 years or more. I assumed that since he was still on the radio, he must somehow keep up with the news, but I guess that may be foolish on my part.

@MistyCee No problem
