Title: Limbaugh evacuates South Florida after claiming Hurricane Irma was a liberal hoax

Rush Limbaugh will be evacuating South Florida, just days after the popular conservative radio host claimed that Hurricane Irma would not hit the United States and that scientists and the liberal media were hyping up the hurricane as proof of their global warming “lie.”

“So there is a desire to advance this climate change agenda, and hurricanes are one of the fastest and best ways to do it. You can accomplish a lot just by creating fear and panic. You don’t need a hurricane to hit anywhere,” Limbaugh said on his show Tuesday. “All you need is to create the fear and panic accompanied by talk that climate change is causing hurricanes to become more frequent and bigger and more dangerous, and you create the panic, and it’s mission accomplished, agenda advanced.”

But on the show Thursday, Limbaugh said he would be off the air for the next few days.

“May as well… announce this. I’m not going to get into details because of the security nature of things, but it turns out that we will not be able to do the program here tomorrow,” Limbaugh said Thursday. “We’ll be on the air next week, folks, from parts unknown.”

Limbaugh said the show will be back on the air Monday, but to be on the air Friday would be “legally impossible” for them do to the show out of South Florida.

Limbaugh did not recant his earlier statements about Irma, and he did not encourage his listeners in the area to evacuate. In fact, Limbaugh seemed to even double down on his earlier views.

“The views expressed by the host of this program [are] documented to be almost always right 99.8 percent of the time,” Limbaugh said right before announcing he would be leaving South Florida for parts unknown. “There is a reason for that because we engage in a relentless and unstoppable pursuit of the truth and we find and proclaim it and that happens to drive people crazy.”

On his show Tuesday, Limbaugh said he was reading the paths of the hurricane and was certain it would curve into the Atlantic, and even if it did so, Limbaugh said “official” meteorologists and the media would have accomplished their goal.

“If it ends up not hitting where you are, hits somewhere else, you might temporarily breathe a sigh of relief, but you’re still gonna think, ‘Man, there might be something to this climate change,” Limbaugh said. “Do not doubt me, with everything being politicized, of course it is an objective of some, not everybody, of course, but some of the people involved here.”

Even Big Water was in on the conspiracy, Limbaugh concluded, as people were stocking up on cases of bottled water for the storm that wouldn’t come when they could just use the water coming out of their taps.

Limbaugh’s hurricane denialism came just a week after Vice President Mike Pence joined Limbaugh on the show to discuss Hurricane Harvey relief efforts, but, at any rate, Limbaugh seems to have stopped believing his own conspiracy.

As CNN security analyst Juliette Kayyem noted, Limbaugh has a large audience—his show reaches 15 million people per week—and many of his listeners believe his theories. While Limbaugh evacuates, others may stay behind in part because he wrote off the storm as a conspiracy.

Limbaugh did not respond to requests for comment about where he will be going.

There's fake news for you. Limbaugh never claimed the hurricane was a hoax. He said the liberals linking the hurricane to global warming was a hoax.

As far as the evacuation goes, he may have had no choice in the matter.

No doubt. I recall all the global hotting propaganda spewed after Katrina.

Since Katrina, we have been in a historical ebb of big hurricanes until Sandy, a rarity, hit NYC and NJ.

Now we have two historically big hurricanes in succession. Looks like we're returning to the usual hurricane patterns along our southern and eastern coasts. And no doubt the global hottists will try to make the most of it, just as they did during Katrina.

He never said that, and is typical of a leftard website trying to push leftard propaganda.

However, I have no doubt he is getting on a private jet to carry him to some safe, comfortable place.

More lies from the progressives in the MSM.

He never said such things and knew the MSM would twist his words as they have always done. MSM doesn't care and when they are forced to retract their words will not care because people like willie will not see the retraction because they are blind to the truth. Thats why demoncraps have such a base that they only read headlines and believe its unbiased truth when in fact its just propaganda!

Another problem with progressives is they can not understand satire when used against them.

Wow, you must be mentally-deficient if you believe that's what Rush said. As long as he's not wasting time on bullshit like football and golf, I listen.

No wonder you think 19th-century choo-choos and union thugs are the answer to transportation needs.

e trying to push leftard propaganda

That's what El Rushbo is paid for!

But algore spooked him into evacuating before global warming climate change, blows him to smithereens.

And after twisting together a crown of thorns, they put it on His head
