NEW YORK — Rush Limbaugh (search) returned to radio Monday after what he called "five intense weeks" of rehab for an addiction to painkillers, promising listeners "even more honesty to come."
The conservative commentator thanked his listeners for their concern, and assured them that his ordeal would not affect his radio program.
