The "Undeniable Truths" were part of an article he wrote for the Sacramento Union back in 1988. Here they are:

  1. The greatest threat to humanity lies in the nuclear arsenal of the USSR.
  2. The greatest threat to humanity lies in the USSR.
  3. Peace does not mean the elimination of nuclear weapons.
  4. Peace does not mean the absence of war.
  5. War is not obsolete.
  6. Ours is a world governed by the aggressive use of force.
  7. There is only one way to get rid of nuclear weapons - use them.
  8. Peace cannot be achieved by developing a "understanding" with the Russian People.
  9. When Americans oppose America, it is not always courageous and sacred; it is sometimes dangerous.
  10. Communism Kills.
  11. Neither the US, nor anyone else, imposes freedom on the peoples of other nations.
  12. Freedom is God given.
  13. In the USSR, peace means the absence of opposition.
  14. To free peoples, peace means the absence of threats and the presence of justice.
  15. The Peace Movement in the US, whether by accident or design, is pro-Communist.
  16. The collective knowledge and wisdom of seasoned citizens is the most valuable, yet untapped, resource our young-people have.
  17. The greatest football team in the history of civilization is the Pittsburgh Steelers of 1975-1980.
  18. There is no such thing as war atrocities.
  19. War itself is an atrocity.
  20. There is a God.
  21. Abortion is wrong.
  22. Morality is not defined and cannot be defined by individual choice.
  23. Evolution cannot explain Creation.
  24. Feminism was established so as to allow unattractive women access to the mainstream of society.
  25. Love is the only human emotion that cannot be controlled.
  26. The only difference between Mikhail Gorbachev and previous Soviet leaders, is that Gorbachev is alive.
  27. Soviet Leaders are just left-wing dictators.
  28. Abe Lincoln saved this nation.
  29. The L.A. Raiders will never be the team that they were when they called Oakland their home.
  30. The US will again go to war.
  31. To more and more people, a victorious US is a sinful US.
  32. This is frightening and ominous.
  33. There will always be poor people.
  34. This is not the fault of the rich.
  35. You should thank God for making you an American; and instead of feeling guilty about it, help spread our ideas worldwide.

Rush has updated this list, many of the "old" UTOL having become somewhat dated (but no less true for being in the past tense!) As read by Rush Limbaugh on his radio show, Friday, February 18, 1994:

(All equally truthful: number 1 is not more or less important than 35.)

  1. There is a distinct singular American culture - rugged individualism and self-reliance - which made America great.
  2. The vast majority of the rich in this country did not inherit their wealth; they earned it. They are the country's achievers, producers, and job creators.
  3. No nation has ever taxed itself into prosperity.
  4. Evidence refutes liberalism.
  5. There is no such thing as a New Democrat.
  6. The Earth's eco-system is not fragile.
  7. Character matters; leadership decends from character.
  8. The most beautiful thing about a tree is what you do with it after you cut it down.
  9. Ronald Reagan was the greatest president of the twentieth century.
  10. The 1980s was not a decade of greed but a decade of prosperity; it was the longest period of peacetime growth in American history.
  11. Abstinence prevents sexually transmitted disease and pregnancy -every time it's tried.
  12. Condoms only work during the school year.
  13. Poverty is not the root ("rut") cause of crime.
  14. There's a simple way to solve the crime problem: obey the law; punish those who do not.
  15. If you commit a crime, you are guilty.
  16. Women should not be allowed on juries where the accused is a stud.
  17. The way to improve our schools is not more money, but the reintroduction of moral and spiritual values, as well as the four "R's": reading, 'riting, 'rithmatic, and Rush.
  18. I am not arrogant.
  19. My first 35 Undeniable Truths are still undeniably true.
  20. There is a God.
  21. There is something wrong when critics say the problem with America is too much religion.
  22. Morality is not defined by individual choice.
  23. The only way liberals win national elections is by pretending they're not liberals.
  24. Feminism was established as to allow unattractive women easier access to the mainstream of society.
  25. Follow the money. When somebody says, "It's not the money," it's always the money.
  26. Liberals attempt through judicial activism what they cannot win at the ballot box.
  27. Using federal dollars as a measure, our cities have not been neglected, but poisoned with welfare dependency funds.
  28. Progress is not striving for economic justice or fairness, but economic growth.
  29. Liberals measure compassion by how many people are given welfare. Conservatives measure compassion by how many people no longer need it.
  30. Compassion is no substitute for justice.
  31. The culture war is between the winners and those who think they're losers who want to become winners. The losers think the only way they can become winners is by banding together all the losers and then empowering a leader of the losers to make things right for them.
  32. The Los Angeles riots were not caused by the Rodney King verdict. The Los Angeles riots were caused by rioters.
  33. You could afford your house without your government - if it weren't for your government.
  34. Words mean things.
  35. Too many Americans can't laugh at themselves anymore.

Today has been a tough day. I always knew there would be a day when Rush would no longer be with us. Today I'm realizing just how much he meant. He was a great friend who I never met in person.

He was a fixture in our country. I remember working for my dad's small business and we would listen to the opening monologue in our service van at lunch. Many customers would have him playing in the background as we worked on site. He was an institution, and the man was one of the greatest teachers I've ever had.

Talent on loan from God. When I remember this phrase it makes me grateful that we were graced by his gifts for these last 30+ years. I will miss him greatly. Rest in Peace Rush, God Bless you

Reddit is celebrating his death. Which is fine because I'll be celebrating when faggots like Obama die. The only problem I have is celebrating the death of a political foe and simultaneously talking about "unity" and "coming together".

We are past the point of ever being one Union again. Civil War is on its way. Once we admit that things we try and "censure" each other for are actually the standard for political discourse, we can move on to separating into two different countries.

You can bet there isn't a single detractor on Reddit that has even listened to an entire Rush broadcast. They, as a matter of policy, vomit forth only what they have been told by the "cool retards" that dictate their thought patterns. Rush has been broadcasting, and I've been listening longer than most of them have been alive.

There never really was Unity.

The only unity possible was with Trump's "meet you in the middle" deals.

But when they can't even do that, say shit like "Not my President" and initiate the riots of Summer 2020.... Fuck. That.

There can be no unity with wild animals such as these.

In my opinion*

I wish the nuclear arsenal of the USSR was the greatest threat to humanity rather than the globalist media virus.

"I have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. It is of immense value, strength, confidence and that's why I'm able to remain fully committed to the idea that what is supposed to happen will happen when it's meant to," he said during one of his final programs.

These 2 were prophetic:

In the USSR, peace means the absence of opposition.

To free peoples, peace means the absence of threats and the presence of justice.

Sounds just like 2021

The Peace Movement in the US, whether by accident or design, is pro-Communist.

After the Soviet Union fell, we found out that most American "peace" groups were on their payroll.

Feminism was established as to allow unattractive women easier access to the mainstream of society.

My favorite truth.

The losers think the only way they can become winners is by banding together all the losers and then empowering a leader of the losers to make things right for them.

Democrats in a nutshell.

We’re going to miss you Rush, but we’ll try to continue your legacy. In order to do that, I’m not so sure us even as a collective group could afford to tie half our brains behind our backs just to make it fair. I guess God got his talent back and it was a hefty dose. RIP Mr. Rush Limbaugh.

TrumpWonBigly2020 2 points ago +2 / -0

Unfortunately there is one in the updated list that is now entirely incorrect:

"The only way liberals win national elections is by pretending they're not liberals."

They've found that they can also win national elections through massive fraud and theft without any need to pretend they're not liberals.

The most beautiful thing about a tree is what you do with it after you cut it down.

Not sure why I looked at this one in particular, but this one speaks to me on so many levels. I'm the son of a man who mills lumber by passion. I see the metaphor as well.
