Conservative talk radio pioneer Rush Limbaugh, who died Wednesday after a year-long battle with cancer, made an excavation of President Biden in his latest Facebook post two weeks before his death.
“Biden canceled ‘an important foreign policy speech,’ people, over two inches of snow. I have no children,” Limbaugh wrote in late Feb. 2.
He added a link to a story on his website titled “Biden sees his shadow, cancels the major speech.”
A day earlier, the president pulled the plug on a trip to the State Department, where he had been scheduled to deliver his first major foreign policy speech as commander-in-chief, citing the couple of inches of snow that fell on DC that weekend.
The speech was “rescheduled due to inclement weather,” a White House official told reporters.
“I don’t know, maybe Biden saw his shadow. What is this? Will two inches of snow close Biden? Will Biden put a lid on it? Limbaugh wrote instead.
At the end of his radio broadcast on February 2, he admitted that he had another host on hold in case he could not complete the program due to his deteriorating health.
“It simply came to our notice then. Another excursion to the excellence of can diffusion. I have always enjoyed being with you. And we look forward to next time, ”said Limbaugh.
“Thanks to Mark Steyn who has been on standby all day. I wasn’t sure I could go there today and then every hour I had to rate. But we got it. Thank you, Mr. Steyn. See you next time, ”he added.
Limbaugh also fired another shot at Biden on Facebook that day.
“Chances are there are a lot of people, coal miners, a lot of people who have voted for Biden who had no idea what he was going to do and what was yet to come,” he wrote.
Limbaugh’s death at age 70 was announced Wednesday on his influential radio show by his wife, Kathryn.
“I know I’m not the Limbaugh you heard today. I, like you, wish Rush was behind this golden microphone right now, welcoming you to three exceptional three-hour broadcasts, ”his wife told listeners in a surprise announcement.
