Rush Limbaugh Threatens to Leave New York City if the State Raises Taxes on People Making More Than $500,000 a Year

The Bronx will find itself in tears And Queens will be bereft. The joy will drain from Broadway When Rush has finally left.

The worst hit will be Brooklyn. “The future’s an abyss,” The Flatbush people will lament. “The Dodgers first. Now this!”
