Prayers up for El Rushbo...said he felt no symptoms yet described the lung cancer as "advanced". As for not inhaling cigars, that is not really true, imho...MUD

The number of smokers has been cut in half in the last 20 years, yet the number of new lung cancers (per 100,000 per year) has hardly budged in that same period.

Number of smokers cut in half? Does that include vaping?
Anyways, I have been Googling regarding survival rates and it depends on how early they catch it and whether it remains local to the lungs vs. mestastisizing into other areas of the body. If still local, 5year survival rates around 60%...if it has spread, 5year survival rates drop to under 10%. Once again, prayers out to Rush...he has the fight of his life on his hands...MUD

Survival rates have vastly improved, but that's due to early detection and advanced treatment.
You need to look at the number of new lung cancer cases per year. That number (per 100,000 population) has remained fairly flat. With half the people no longer smoking, you would expect that number to decrease.
If there was a connection between lung cancer and smoking.

You don't think smoking and lung cancer are at all related? My grandfather smoked multiple cigars a day and lived to the ripe old age of 93, but I always assumed there us some correlation, albeit less determinative than commonly portrayed.

Is there a relationship between carbon emissions and global warming?

Rush used to joke that he was holding a paper or report in his 'formerly nicotine-stained fingers'. Inhaling cigars is as bad as inhaling cigarettes. I pray that Rush will make a miraculous recovery as he is the bright and enlightened commentary on an otherwise drab and dreary political landscape.

This is made even shittier by the realization that Clintons still walk the earth.

All die, I've heard.
I'm hoping I'll be an exception.

Not that I've seen established with any degree of certitude...MUD

He had me in tears tonight. His true shock of being awarded the MOF at the SOTU was quite a moment. Prayers indeed. He looks so frail.

"He looks so frail."
They probably already have chemo underway, attempting to fight back the cancerous growth to a point docs can go in and cut it out.

Mark Steyn confirmed today that Rush will be back on the air on Friday...I suppose he will give us some details on how far his cancer has progressed.
