Rush Limbaugh Gives Caller A New SUV »

«1 of 1»

Belinda Davis just wanted to get something off her chest. So she called the Rush Limbaugh radio show to vent and, much to her surprise, ended up with a new Chevy Tahoe.

“I was frustrated about movie stars who helped with Barack Obama's campaign and the millions of dollars they gave to him,” she said.

Davis, a Kerrville resident, didn't like all the attention and praise celebrities got for supporting Obama, while working stiffs like her and her husband were ignored.

Limbaugh thought she sounded under the weather and suggested she try an over-the-counter cold product called Zicam, which advertises on his show. “I would go out and get some and swab your nose,” Limbaugh said. “I'll tell you what else I am going to do. I'm going to send you a copy of Vince Flynn's latest novel. In addition to Vince Flynn's latest novel, I'm going to buy you a car.”

Davis didn't know what to think. “I thought he was joking at first. I had no idea he was really serious about this,” she said. But two days later, she was at a local GM dealer, where she picked out a $58,000 fully-loaded Tahoe. “I'm just so thankful to Rush,” she said.

Limbaugh told CNSNews.com that he made the offer on a whim because “she sounded so tired, distraught and frightened about her and her husband's business future with an Obama victory.”
