My friends Stallone Outpost of Sanity which remains on this planet, Rush Limbaugh, the television show.
As you know, the inauguration of Bill Clinton took.
It happened.
441 days, I think.
I haven't really multiplied it out.
I know one of these four years is going to be a leap year.
And we're gonna wish we could just leap past the whole year.
America is now being held hostage.
We are all imprisoned to the liberal idealism of the hippieish 60s, ladies and gentlemen.
And every night we're going to remind you of it on this show.
This show will not go off the air.
This show, taking its cue from ABC's nightline, will be here every night during this crisis.
So as to keep you informed.
That's right.
Thank you.
Now, ladies and gentlemen, let us go down to our nation's capital.
As you know, one of one of the things that I have constantly sought to convince you about is the animal rights movement.
I have told you of how wickedly evil and idiotic these people are.
I've shared with you the fact that these are people who really have an agenda other than that which they state.
Is to drive the vehicle of the animal rights movement, which is the same as the vehicle of the militant environmental movement, which is the same as the feminist movement, all these leftist ideals are simply vehicles which are being driven toward a more socialist America, a poorer America, an America where there are fewer prosperity rights.
I've just invented that term.
They want less prosperity.
Only then can we be a nice people, and things will be fair.
And a lot of people think that I don't understand the animal rights people.
All they're out to do is protect animals.
Every animal is the same as their little pet.
You have your little pet at home,'s got those cute little big eyes, and it loves you, and it knows when you get a mean letter, and it knows when you're feeling upset, and it cries along with you, and that's that's how everybody views their animals.
The animals in the wild are the same as their pets at home.
The animal rights movement, in order to prosper, must devalue human life.
It must devalue the supremacy and superiority of the most brilliant creation of God in the universe, humanity.
To prove it, let's go to the animal ball.
Yes, part of the inaugural celebration.
No, no, wait.
Part of the inaugural celebration, my friends, last night, a bunch of animal rights people got together and had a ball.
An inaugural ball, Hollywood leaders, and we just have some video tape.
Our man in Washington.
Let's roll the tape, Chad.
Our man at the inaugural, there he is, prepared to sneak in with comments from the attendees at the party.
Listen to this.
Define that.
Well, I think that uh, you know, it just has to do with extending humane treatment toward animals under all of the variety of uh uh conditions that we have.
Well, I I haven't gotten that far in Al Gore's book yet, you know, the challenge.
So you say the term animal rights, what rights does that imply specifically?
Well, the right to drive a car, the right to vote.
I'm I'm a great believer in in freeing the animals.
That's all.
Freeing the animals.
Animal rights is the compassion and understanding that humans don't have the ability or the right to consider themselves above another living species.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, I think that every living creature should be given its own rights.
You know, that was Katie Lang who said that uh humans don't have the right to consider themselves above other species.
If I were Katie Lang, I'd feel that way about myself too.
Uh but uh proof.
These people, folks, let's face it, that was a bunch of psychobabble.
That's a bunch of people who have no idea what they're talking about, but they think they're good and wonderful people because they care about animals.
And it doesn't matter what the results of that stupid rhetoric that they just enunciated happen to be.
No, they care, they're compassionate.
You're not.
And they're better people than you.
That's what it means.
It's idiocy.
Now, one of the celebrants at the inaugural Bash incurred the wrath of these people.
But this show would like to honor Aretha Franklin for daring to show up last night's Gala on television.
You might have seen it.
There she is, folks.
That's that is a dead animal.
That is a dead animal she's wearing.
And she is flaunting that in front of the animal rights activists who the day before criticized her for not being of the proper sensitivity.
So Retha, we questioned your participation in this thing last night, but you've gotten back in our good graces by stuffing it down the throats of the animal rights whackers.
What's left on our show tonight?
A lot.
My friends, this is a scene from the Gala that we just showed you a clip of Aretha Frank of that last night.
We are going to analyze parts of the inaugural speech given by uh President Clinton to I just I can't, you know, I feel like I'm in fantasy land when I say that.
Uh President Clinton made the inaugural address today, and we thought we'd spend a lot of time on the show analyzing it, playing eclips.
My friends, it's a 14-minute speech.
It may take us the next four years, but we're gonna analyze this whole thing line by line and we'll get started tonight.
Also, um, doesn't he look more presidential?
Doesn't Mr. Rod that is that is that's that's Mr. Rogers there.
And if you if you said if somebody landed from Mars and said, We want to see your president here, find him in this picture.
Which one would the Martian choose?
Probably, probably uh Mr. Rogers.
As you can see, he's giving a gift to uh the president elect.
This happened last night.
Uh uh, we'll tell you about the significance of this little trolley.
Um the president of the United States, George Bush, uh, left Washington.
If we have time, uh, we are going to try to do a little tribute.
If not, we will get to it on some on some later show.
Uh a couple of shows have done tributes to the president, and they've not been tributes at all.
They've done highlights of his administration and they've mocked it and they've impugned it, made fun of it, and laughed at it, criticized it.
We're gonna do just the opposite.
And of course, the question mark continues to represent what's next.
And uh, we'll get started with all the rest of this show right after this break, so stay right where you are.

Welcome back.
Glad you're with us.
Hey, folks, let this show be a guiding light and a lesson to you.
I mean, there are a lot of people who did not vote for Bill Clinton who uh probably watched today and for the first time in a long time have been on the outside when it turns when it comes to their president winning an election or their candidate.
But you can't let it get you down.
We're smiling here, we're forging on.
I mean, we've got some some things that are somewhat unsettling naturally.
For example, I'll tell you something.
We're gonna get into the analysis of the uh of this uh speech in just a second, very quickly.
But one of the things I I want to make this point before we get too far into this show, and I don't have time to do it.
A lot of people have been asking me uh what I think really is going to happen in these next four years with this administration.
And I I very quickly can tell you, you have heard no doubt the pundits and the analysis of the of the so-called experts say that the presidency of George Bush was a transition presidency.
He was a transition president.
He's the last dying gasp of an archaic generation, an archaic way of doing things, an old-fashioned way of thought.
It's time for the young people to move in.
And uh this transition was a necessary one, and we're all glad it happened, of course, yada yada yada.
But now it's time for the real leadership of America to gake our country back.
I love this.
We must take our country back.
We must get it back, we must unify.
Take our country back from what?
It really, the stuff is grating on me.
Let me tell you that I think this is the real transition presidency.
I think this is the real transition administration.
You know what's happened here because of the quirk of a three-party uh or three candidate race.
And because of the of the quirk of a media successfully convincing people they lived in a rotten economy.
We have some people who are really relics from the hippie 60s.
These are not the mainstream people, I think, from the generation of the 60s.
I think the people that think they've gotten hold of things here are those of the free love, free sex generation, the the free speech crowd from the Berkeley days out in California, basically a bunch of oddballs, kooks, and weirdos who finally have gotten hold of things.
And I think I think I think this administration is gonna cause a major turn back to the right.
I think that this administration is going to see to it that those glory idealistic socialist utopian days of the 60s are once and for all shown to be nothing but idealism, not reality.
And there's no way of a teal.
And I I think that's gonna happen here, and I think I think for better worse, Bill Clinton is a man who cannot keep commitments.
You can talk him out of things with a little pressure.
It goes to just what his convictions are or aren't.
There are gonna be a lot of dis disappointed people, a lot of people feeling jilted very soon.
But but one thing uh Thursday or Friday of this week, he's gonna let loose with a bunch of cultural executive orders.
They're gonna lift the gag rule on abortion, he's gonna okay fetal tissue research, things like that.
That the left initially is gonna go, oh good, oh, finally, oh, and they're gonna collective orgies all over America.
But it's only gonna be for a couple of days, folks.
It's only it's just the surface stuff.
I'm just warning you, it's gonna happen.
Now, I've um I gotta take a break here, or else I'm gonna get get way behind.
We come back, we'll get into the speech analysis, just a couple of quick clips, and uh then we'll move on with the rest of the show, too.

I've been crying over you for a while, over you, except so long.
Left me standing.
I've been crying.
I don't know if you saw that show.
I don't know if we saw the saw the show Tuesday night that ran all over the country, but everybody that went up there, no matter what they said, no matter what they did, Clinton started crying.
I mean, that's too sensitive.
Not half of that stuff was not worth crying.
My gosh, we're getting a signal here, folks.
I didn't know we had.
Never mind, we've gotten it handled.
Uh let's go straight to the speech.
What was that?
It was Deborah's beeper.
You know what it was, Deborah's beeper!
It was dead-rooted people!
Deborah is our commie babe makeup artist, folks.
It wasn't.
It wasn't her, it was her beeper.
Absolutely.
There she is.
Commie make a babe.
You know what?
She desperately, folks, you don't want to watch this next bit on Clinton, because he she wants a husband.
And I didn't know it was that, but she's a commitment phob, she said.
That's the only reason.
So, uh she obviously is wanted on another job.
I didn't know you work for anybody else, Deborah.
All right, let's go to the speech.
We're losing valuable time.
The inaugural speech.
Let's just roll it.
I haven't seen much of this.
I heard some, I haven't seen much.
We're gonna roll it from the top just to give you some on-the-spot analysis, line by line.
I'm gonna say, roll the tape in there, Chet.
My fellow citizens.
Whoa!
Stop the tape!
Stop!
Wait a minute!
Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
My fellow citizens.
Whatever happened to my fellow Americans.
Why?
You you think that he didn't say Americans by accident?
That was on purpose, folks.
I guarantee you that's exactly what this administration is all about.
This stupid symbolism.
You know what the problem with Americans is?
Americans is not inclusive enough.
No, no, it what it does not include everybody.
Alienates people out there on the fringes.
Whose pain we are all trying to feel.
There are a lot of people who aren't proud to be Americans.
Native Americans, the people who don't like to call them red skins and braves and all that.
This is purposeful.
This is exactly what I mean.
When I talk about symbolism over so he just can't say my fellow Americans.
Uh, we got what let's let's roll the next one, Chet.
Just some more from the inaugural speech, see what we get next.
Now the sights and sounds of this ceremony are broadcast instantaneously.
It's uh it's a long word, tough word.
To billions around the world.
Communications and commerce are global.
Investment is mobile.
Technology is almost magical.
And ambition for a better life is now universal.
Stop the I cannot, but what did any of that mean?
I had to go get the transcript for I have it right here.
Communications and commerce are global.
I mean, that's nothing new there.
I mean.
Investment is mobile.
What does that mean?
Crooks walk from bank to bank with their depositors.
What does it mean?
Technology is almost magical.
Almost.
Well, send him the latest copy of the limball letter.
The next issue, we got an interview with George Gilder in there about technology, may learn something almost magical.
And oh, this is the one I love.
Ambition for a better life is now universal.
Now, again, here I go.
I'm gonna attach meaning to what he said.
When he says here that uh the the desire, ambition for a better life is now universal.
That means that before today, some people didn't want a better life.
Some people were content to live in squalor.
Some people were content to just sit there and basically vegetate and be a bunch of zeros.
But now that he is there, oh, everybody wants.
When do these people figure this stuff out?
See, when now in the 80s.
When we had this desire for a better life, it was called selfishness and greed, right?
But now the 80s are gone.
And so now it's okay.
Oh, folks.
Let me let me let me show you the Mr. Rogers clip.
This is take a look at the this is funny too.
Watch this.
It's a couple days ago.
We have brought you something for you and your family to help you along the way.
Thank you.
Thank you.
You know, uh the Clinton family likes Mr. Rogers' neighborhood.
And if we can make every neighborhood like Mr. Rogers' neighborhood, America would be a happier place.
Oh we are, we would all be better people if.
Now we can't go back to the days of Ozzy and Harriet, though.
We can't go back to that.
No, no, those those days.
That's not realistic.
It's not not, you can't expect people to go back and live wholesome lives, but boy, we can all go to the neighborhood and Mr. Rat.
Do you know what that trolley symbolizes?
There, this is maybe a negative omen.
See, she does.
She does.
If you watch Mr. Rogers, that you know that that trolley takes you to the land of make believe.
That's all it is.
All right.
Look, we have to take a break.
We have to take a break.
I can only tell you we're not gonna squeeze everything in tonight we wanted to, but I gotta do James Edward Almost or whatever, Edwards James Almost, whatever, when we come back, so don't go away.

Now, at this uh at this bash at the Capitol Center in Landover, Maryland last night.
Big televisor, Bill cried at virtually everything.
Have you ever noticed Gore Clapp, by the way?
I want to get it.
That's how it claps.
Edward James Olmos made a speech.
This typifies what these people think is important about life.
Watch this.
My own background is one of inclusion, so I can relate to it.
The entire concept.
For you see, my route originally is from Africa.
I am African first.
Crossing the continent to Asia.
I'm Asian second.
Leaping over the ocean to add some Mayan Aztec heritage.
which in the 15th century, with the arrival of my Jewish, Hungarian, Spanish ancestors from Europe, bring the dog's bloodlines and produce the multi-ethnic man standing proudly before you.
This is...
Why can't he just say I'm an American and I'm proud of it?
Why is it the birthday?
He's a mongrel.
But they think that's important.
All of that irrelevant stuff makes him a good person.
It makes it just stupid.
It's sad.
That's what they think's important.
We're in trouble.
We're not supposed to notice that stuff.
We're all humans.
Whatever happened to that concept.
I mean, it's it's it's the same thing that I was trying to tell you regarding the cabinet when they were putting that together.
All they're looking for is diversity.
They're not looking for the best.
The thing that puzzles me is these are the same people, folks, who are trying to tell us that we should not notice what somebody's skin color is.
We ought not notice what their ethnicity is.
And if we do that, we're bigots.
But here are these people come and saying, This is what's important about me.
Listen to this.
Oh well.
I want to close the show tonight, ladies and gentlemen, with a recap of this day.
There's President Bush.
Shaking hands with Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton.
There he are.
Uh there he is, Mr. and Mrs. Bush.
Mom and Dad, uh, if you will saying goodbye.
They are leaving the house.
They are going away, folks.
There they are.
They're actually leaving.
And guess what?
They're leaving us.
We are with Bill and Hillary.
They're home alone.
For four years, folks, for four years.
They're home alone.
services provided and promotional fees paid by the following brush limbaugh's wardrobe by rochester A quick reminder, first of all, of what this program's central theme really is.
A note of caution.
America held hostage.
Day three.
Welcome to our Fireside Chat Show, ladies and gentlemen.
Day three of America Held Hostage.
Day three out of 1,461 days.
And we'll be here for every five of those days, since we don't work weekends on this show, to keep you posted on the latest developments of this latest American hostage crisis, the Clinton administration.
Fireside Chat Show.
It's time to fire up the fireplace.
This is our remote control romance fireplace.
This is especially pleasing now to uh Senator Gore Vice President Gore and uh and other liberals who believe in symbolism over substance.
This is it.
Our little don't you feel cozy and warm and homey and so forth.
Well, don't they just make you feel like the real thing here, folks?
All right, uh our fireside chat show is one in which we we uh uh change the intensity a little bit.
And uh I'll be honest with you, the reason for it, we uh we taped the Fireside Chat Show uh before the end of the week.
We tape it on a on a Thursday, we do two shows on Thursday, and the Fireside Chat Show is the second show.
And since we are not psychic here, we're not gonna try to predict uh what's gonna happen tomorrow as we tape.
And uh during the week, there are always a number of things that we haven't been able to show you that we've wanted to, and so that's generally what we use our fireside chat show for.
I would like to show you something.
This is funny, as you know, we've had our man in Washington throughout this entire inaugural week, and he has spoken to several dignitaries of the Democratic Party and asked them various questions.
Most recently a question about me and my television show and why it isn't in Washington, other resorted questions as well.
Here is his report.
There he is now, our man in Washington.
Don't laugh, studio audience.
Washington, D.C. is the only major city where Rush Limbaugh's television show is not on.
Why do you think that is?
I don't really know.
Maybe they have good taste.
I guess the profit would have been take somewhere, unfortunately.
The purpose is to let as many people see it as possible, and I hope they will ultimately.
He's got a very big audience, so uh surprised he's not here at here.
Would you welcome him in Washington, D.C.?
Sure, I'd be glad to have him on the air.
Right.
You think Washington so they misses that television show here?
Well, they ought to have a little dose of conservatism every hundred years at least in this town.
Thank you.
Uh thank you, thank you, Senator Dole.
Now, we got a uh a thing in the mail the other day uh from somebody who I think is from Texarkana, uh, Arkansas.
Let me get the name out just so that we give them credit.
Eric Saylor lives in Texar Kent, Arkansas, or Texarkana, Texas, and uh the family found themselves at a McDonald's in Arkansas.
And guess who strode in?
That's right.
Now, let me let me show you some things here in this picture.
That is President Clinton with the McDonald's staff.
Now you notice that little kid.
That little kid is in sheer agony.
You know that kid is crying and throwing a fuss.
That that is the child of Eric Saylor.
So they they wanted to see how they could maybe get the child into a better mood and get him out of that feeling of oppression and fear and anger, and here's how they did it.
Look at this.
Same Little boy.
Same little boy.
Holding my book, The World is Fine in a picture with President Clinton.
That's a smart kid.
He's got.
Now, this just came in the mail the other day, folks.
Just happened to show up.
And I was uh it it was in the hands of Diana Schneider, who's the editor of the Limbaughter.
Hey, by the way, you know what?
We just hit 152,000 subscribers this week.
We've been up since September with this.
We're setting all kinds of records.
Thank you.
And as always, as always, the the success of any venture that originates from uh this television show, the radio show, all of it is due to you.
Uh of course it wouldn't be happening if I weren't here, but uh since that's a given, uh, we appreciate I mean it's just it warms my heart, it really does, and I thank you so much, and I'm proud of it, and that's why I share it with you.
So we get a lot of mail uh to the show here, the radio show, and the newsletter is starting to generate its own mail.
And the editor got uh a letter from Keith Corso, who is the instructor of broadcast communications at Westminster College in New Wilmington, Pennsylvania.
There is a textbook, and I think they're either using it or they're going to be using it soon, that has been written by a guy named John Vivian of Winona State University.
Here's what the cover of the textbook looks like: the media of mass communication.
And they sent me, uh, Keith Corso sent me a sample page, page 191.
Now you can see there's a picture of me at uh sitting in the prestigious Attila the Hun chair uh at the EIB Institute.
That's the radio show there, it's the radio microphone.
I want to read to you the caption that goes with this picture because it's too small for you to see it.
I want you to notice the tense.
Radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh attracted past tense notice that huge audiences in the early 1990s, but critics say people listened more to be entertained and outraged than to participate in dialogue on the great issues of the day.
The great disappointment of talk radio is that it has fallen short of its potential as a public forum to help democracy work better.
Well, obviously, we know this guy is a commie lib.
Obviously, this guy.
You know, let me tell you something.
Let me tell you a little bit about, thank you.
Let me tell you a little bit about talk radio.
Nobody ever said talk radio is about democracy.
That's the media's fix fixation with it.
All of the critics in Time and Newsweek.
You know, when talk radio hosts around the country during the pay raise of 1990 sent in LO's tea bags during the it was December of 1989, Time and Newsweek wrote letters.
Oh, is this a threat to democracy?
Why these hosts are actually getting people to send in tea bags?
They're actually getting people involved in their government.
Can democracy withstand this assault?
They actually wrote that.
So now here's this idiot who writes this textbook claiming that talk radio is failing in whatever he thinks it should be, and that is a forum for democracy.
Well, I Mr. Vivian, let me just tell you something.
If in case you haven't heard, if you're gonna put me in your textbook, you ought to get what I do right.
Because you're out there trying to take young skulls full of mush and tell them hopefully the truth and teach them about broadcasting.
And I'm gonna just I'm gonna just fire full force, I mean, double barrel right at you.
If you want to teach somebody in broadcasting how to exceed in broadcasting, who better than me as a role model as an example?
Seriously.
Wait, this is now seriously.
This is not ego.
In terms of my radio show and this television show, we're doing it unlike the way anybody else does it, and we're the third most watched late night show in America.
We're watched by more people than Watch Letterman.
We're watched by more people and watch CBS late night.
We're watched by more people than who watch Whoopi or uh on some weeks even Arsenio.
And and the idea that somehow this guy's got to write a textbook and criticize what's happening here is a disservice to the student who reads this book.
I have never said that this is about democracy.
In fact, it's not.
This is a benevolent dictatorship.
The only reason this show is on the air so you can discover what I think.
The only reason I do the radio show, it's totally about what I think.
It's not about trying to find out what you think.
Get your own show if you want to tell people what you think.
What is wrong?
What is wrong with using the medium of radio or television, which are both entertainment medias?
What's wrong with critics say people listen more to be entertained?
What else do people turn on radio and TV for?
Have their shoes shined?
Do they turn on radio TV for the per.
Why don't you hold the network news to the same standard, Mr. Vivian?
People don't get one IOTA's worth of input into the TV news.
And when people try to tell the TV news people what they think of, the TV news people say you're too stupid.
You don't have enough knowledge to know what's going on in the country.
You're gonna get it the way we want you to hear it.
But no, this guy has to write a textbook where he is instructing people in broadcasting and communications and gets it entirely totally wrong.
Now I don't apologize for responding this way, and I only feel sorry for whatever students have to take the course where that's the textbook.
That's what's wrong with the country.
Even if he disagrees with me, there is no reason to show or to hold this radio or TV show up as examples or bad examples of broadcasting.
We have only revolutionized it.
We have not done it with irresponsibility.
We've not done it with dishonesty.
Uh we have not done it uh fooling anybody by any stretch of the imagination.
We're a commercial success.
I mean, at least we don't need a government grant to keep us on the air because people don't want to watch us.
I mean, we're only going out there and ascertaining and amassing our audience within the free market that is known as the U.S. economy.
Ooh, I gotta take a quick break here, folks.
Uh, you may notice these little things here from me on the side.
See these?
We'll tell you what they are.
Um if you have a vivid vivid imagination, you might be able to figure it out.
If you can't, we'll tell you when we come back.
Don't go away.
Thank you.
I got home.
There you have it, folks.
That's Clarence Frogman Henry.
What is it, 1965?
Uh it's a 1965 kinescope of the frogman on some one of those old television shows that you see after school.
The frogman, as you know, is singing our official homeless update theme, ain't got no home.
Uh, we have some video from the homeless ball at the uh at the Democratic.
But first, before we show you that, I gotta explain these little things.
Now, can we can you get a close up of these where they are?
Do I need to move them somewhere?
What would you do there?
That's good enough.
Here, let me uh little eyes on there.
Can you see them?
Wait a minute.
They're hidden by the there.
Can you see the little eyes?
Uh blue denotes what?
Male, right?
Little boy.
And this is pink.
See this?
Good.
These ladies and gentlemen are boy and girl sperm.
What happened on this show the other night?
I happened to mention that Deborah, our commie babe makeup artist, was fed up with men.
She was a commitment phob, and she was afraid of committing and finding a husband, but she wants a baby.
So I said she was looking for a sperm donor.
So somebody, a woman makes boy and girl sperm and sent these things in.
These are the sperm that have been donated to Deborah.
Now we're only, I I want to stress something.
I want to stress.
The audience doesn't know whether gee, I've never applauded sperm before.
It's okay, folks.
It's just a gag.
Uh and and of course, uh Deborah has no, she's we were just teasing her, so you know, and I made a joke.
If you do send some sperm in, make sure you include the condom.
And uh now these, we also told you about these are our official new pointers.
And and these are from the rainforest.
The trees died to make these pointers.
Promise those to you.
Now our homeless video, homeless ball video.
The first one is from George Stallings, Father George Stallings.
He's a reverend in the Catholic Church, he's a renegade Catholic priest, actually.
Here is our man in Washington interviewing him this week at the homeless ball at the inauguration.
The ball itself, ladies and gentlemen.
And soon.
It looks like a heavily attended ball.
Why was it important to have a homeless ball?
It is important that we have a homeless ball to enable the president-elect to see that the homeless are a part of the tapestry of America.
And that since our president desires to reflect the basis of America in his new administration, this is our gift to our new president to say that while he would have desired to send invitations to the homeless to invite them to the various activities,
and knowing that they have no homes where those invitations could have been sent, that then we have taken it upon ourselves, as those who are sensitive to the needs of the homeless to create an inaugural ball so that they, as homeless, can feel a part of this of his great uh event and the great celebration of a new president.
He wouldn't shut up.
Well, now you laugh, but let me tell you something.
That's the kind of guy who takes Clinton seriously.
Those are the kind of guys who think that they have finally arrived.
They're out of bondage now.
These guys have finally gotten out of the shackles, and this administration is theirs.
I mean, they really, and we pointed out to you on this show just the other night.
There is no homeless cabinet member.
He said he was gonna have a cabinet that looks like America, and there's no homeless, and there's nobody from the homeless on the cabinet.
Now, do you remember Mitch Snyder, who was uh the uh the one of the big time homeless guys?
Big time homeless guru.
Mitch Schneider uh uh assumed room temperature in the spring of 19, I think 90.
And uh Mitch was, after assuming room temperature, they then cremated him, and his urn is on display at the homeless shelter he founded, called the uh what the center of the committee for creative nonviolence.
What are you smiling at, Sandy?
You're not supposed to smile because when you smile, I start laughing.
And it's supposed to be a sensitive segment talking about well, Mitch uh committed suicide because of a love affair that had gone sour with a woman named Carol Fennley.
We just happened to have videotape of her.
She was asked the same question, Bill Clinton in the homeless, and isn't it wonderful?
Here's her response.
What changes do you expect from a Clinton administration?
None.
I think people are delusional.
They think he's gonna change anything.
You don't expect him to try to do anything to end homelessness or alleviate it?
Um, he hasn't had a clue and doesn't have a plan.
So no, not really.
Absolutely right.
Oh, by the way, you know we have another broken promise.
Promise 18, he was gonna have some kind of a jobs bill or something uh that was going through the legislative session.
It's number 18 on your promises promises sheet if you have it.
Uh it was going to do something on the day he was inaugurated and it didn't happen.
Uh, and and we mentioned it to you the other night.
I just wanted to remind it uh uh remind you of it again.
Let's take another quick break and we'll do that.
We'll be back with more right after this.
We have some home videos coming up too, so don't go away.
*laughter*
Did you see that, Deborah?
Okay, enough.
Enough.
We're having more fun here than human beings should be allowed to have.
Folks, this is from this is from the kids are gonna do it.
You can't stop them, department.
In East Palo Alto, California, the school district there is considering taking out life insurance for the students.
Do you know what for?
There are more murders per capita in East Palo Alco, California, than any city in the country.
And the school district there is they're having all kinds of problems with the students shooting each other or killing each other.
So you want to go out and buy life insurance to handle the burial.
The burials cost $1,500.
I'm not making this up, folks.
The burials cost $1,500, and the teachers have been kicking in $500 each to handle this, and they're tired of paying for it.
So they're gonna go out there, they're gonna get an insurance policy for this.
And they talked to uh some guy, a spokesperson for the association of California School Administrators, when asked about this whole idea of life insurance to bury dead students.
He said, Well, I credit the school district in East Palo Alto for being responsive to social to for being responsive to social conditions that affect learning.
Well now, we gotta hand it to this guy.
He's got a point.
After all, death can affect learning.
He's very sensitive about this.
I mean, I can just I can just see it now.
A mother calls the school.
Hi, this is Mrs. Jones.
Billy won't be there.
I mean, he's calling in dead today.
Mutual of Omaha's wild kingdom.
You know, I can just see now that they'd be the sponsor.
I want to show you the tackiest moment of that Tuesday night gala and extravaganza.
I better take a break, otherwise we're not gonna get there.
We're gonna have a problem.
Let me take a break.
I want to show you the tackiest moment of that big gala at the Cap Center with the Clintons and Gores were all there, Michael Jackson, all that going on.
I'll show you the tackiest moment when we come back.
Don't go well.
Thank you.
We are very good.
I asked the audience, well, we don't have much time.
Just give me one clap, and they did it.
Tackiest moment.
This is Bill Cosby, and I think this is one time I felt sorry for Clinton, and I think he should have told Bill Cosby a thing or two under his breath.
Watch this.
I think this is really insulting and tacky.
I'm fine.
And how are you, sir?
Congratulations.
Congratulations, sir.
And congratulations.
What I wanted to talk to both of you about was.
I'm confused.
Um you have people in black tie and tails, and you're from Arkansas.
You're from Tennessee.
Where are the clothes?
Look at Clinton.
I got the wrong clothes, but I think I have the right clothes.
We're gonna bring it home.
Got it?
You're not always funny, Bill.
It's not always funny.
And that clearly wasn't a funny moment.
And the Clintons didn't look like they thought it was very funny either.
It's one time I just I, you know, I could see him under his breath.
My friends, we'd like to show you our version of how we saw the coron the inauguration of William Jefferson Blythe Clinton.
There are four names.
May we show it to you now as we go out.
Thanks.
Have a great weekend.
We'll see you next time.
*music*
Services provided and promotional fees paid by the following.
Do you remember, you people in the audience, I'm sure remember this.
Spike Lee's movie, uh Malcolm the 10th.
Apparently, if you go, this is Spike is making this charge.
Everybody involved denies this charge.
Apparently, if you go to certain theaters to see Malcolm the 10th, your ticket represents, or they have printed on your ticket some other movie, as though you didn't really see uh Malcolm the 10th.
And that, Spike says, is an attempt to underreport the success of his movie, and they investigated found it wasn't true.
We got a letter from a guy in Moore, Oklahoma, Mr. Paul uh and Sharon Janes, Mr. and Mrs. I assume, um, Paul and uh Sharon Janes, Moore, Oklahoma.
Guy went in to uh you think I ought to mention the name of the store?
What the heck?
it's a fine store.
It's an absolutely marvelous store, one of America's greatest success stories.
There's a Walmart store in uh in Moore, Oklahoma, and this guy, Paul James, walked in to buy my book, as nearly two million other Americans have done.
And when he got his receipt, we have a we have a picture of this receipt to show it.
Now look at this receipt.
This is Walmart says we sell for less.
Go lions, more quoma.
Now you see down there underlined, it says sweet liar.
It's underlined if you go over quantity one, 1648 was the price.
Other stuff on there, just so you'll know videotape, film, snack cake, candy, snacks.
This is a junk food family, obviously.
But they bought my book.
Now you say, Rush, where's your book on there?
Sweet Liar is what my book is.
So we got this, and we said, what is Sweet Liar?
Is there another book out there named Sweet Liar that maybe they're trying to credit when my book is purchased?
So we found there's no other book called Sweet Liar.
So we called this Walmart store.
We actually call them there.
So what's going on?
What is this mean?
Well, that's just the way it's in the computer, sir.
Don't know how it got there.
Well, obviously, what's happened?
They've got a kook running loose at this Walmart store.
One of the finest store chains in America, Sam Walton, an American successor.
They got a liberal running around, and they've put, you know, the barcode on these computers.
When my book gets scanned, it's reported as sweet liar.
So there's obviously a liberal who resents the success of my book and thinks I'm a liar, but I'm a sweet person nevertheless.
And that's we've always share, because we did, we did the research.
We are sure this is not uh chain wide.
In fact, we know it's not chain-wide.
We know it's only in the Walmart in Moore, Oklahoma, and there's gotta be, you know, some loose fruit cake running around in there.
All right, what do we have on tonight's show?
It is so good.
Let's get started.
This, ladies and gentlemen, is uh the Concord supersonic jetliner landing from London in New York.
On board is Carol Mosley Braun.
Uh, the first welfare queen elected to the United States Senate.
She's from Illinois.
We have an amazing number of details about the controversy which she finds herself in.
This is Patricia Ireland, the chairman and president of the Now Gang, the National Organization for Women.
She's reacting to Bob Packwood, a big protest.
Gotta get Peckwood out of the Senate.
Sexual harassment story.
We'll have that for you tonight.
Um, we were speculating in our production meeting today.
You know, one of the one of the, if you wanted to punish this woman, what would be the single most harmful thing you could do to her?
You could force her to go out with her husband.
Think about it, uh, folks.
Think about it.
What's what's this?
Oh, oh!
The inaugural balls, Bill's balls, and the parades and everything coming up.
This this is a this is a marching band that's been in every inaugural ball and parade and so forth since 1957, but not this one.
They have been X'd out.
And our fourth monitor, I can tell you, we're not gonna get to it.
There's nothing there tonight.
All this other stuff's gonna take too much time.
We gotta get started with it.
So don't go anywhere.
We'll be right back and get started.

Airport Lumber builds a better garage.
Pass it on.
People are talking because at Airport Lumber, we've got the best quality materials and workmanship could turn dreams into reality.
I had an idea.
Bob Wilkes designed it and Airport Lumber made it real.
Airport Lumber found a way to combine the deck in the garage and gave us exactly what we wanted.
I wanted to blend in with the house.
I told him the size I wanted, and Airport Lumber drew up the plan.
Call me or Nelson Whiteers at Airport Lumber.
We'll work with you to build a better garage.
Pass it on!
Thank you.
Let's go.
Let's go.
A lot of stuff to do here.
Um, as you know, on Tuesday, the 103rd Congress is sworn in, and amongst our new leaders, uh Carol Mosley Braun, uh, Senator, there she is.
Um Illinois.
Now, she's, of course, elected because of all the unfairness and uh the mistreatment of uh Nita Hill during the Clarence Thomas situation.
She's gotta go in there and fix and straighten that out.
She's embroiled in a controversy, folks.
Um, let's just show you here, real quickly, what the criticisms of Carol Mosley Braun are.
Here they are.
One of them is that she took the Concord and a friend's private jet back from vacation when her campaign is in debt.
We're gonna have some details on this later in just a minute.
During her closing days as the Cook County recorder of deeds, ten people were improperly hired.
Some of them worked for her campaign.
She said, gosh, it's right, I apologize.
I was on autopilot, I didn't know it.
She sold the modest home in which she lived, moved into a $3,300 a month penthouse apartment, and bought a new Jeep and some expensive clothes while members of her campaign staff have not been paid.
Now, by the way, her campaign got six million dollars in donations, uh, and there's still a $500,000 debt.
She has said that she's not interested in a seat on the Judiciary Committee, and that's the whole reason she ran for the Senate.
But let me tell you why she doesn't want to go to the committee.
I'm just gonna, I'm just gonna tell you.
Point back up from the TV set because it's coming right out at you.
When you're on the Judiciary Committee, many of the things that happen there are televised.
And so when you're an idiot, the world will see it.
None want to go there.
You gotta understand about liberals too.
It's symbolism over substance.
What do you mean?
Judiciary committee, why?
I don't have to go there just because I'm in the Senate.
That's the difference.
This is the woman who said that women are better equipped to nurture the economy back to hell.
Does that mean she's the national nipple?
I don't understand what that stuff means, but that's what she says.
Now wait, wait, wait.
She went on that 30-day vacation.
She went to South Africa.
I said, Why go to South Africa?
Why in the world?
She's black.
Why go to South Africa?
She vacationed there for 30 days with her campaign manager, Cozy Matthews.
He's been accused of sexual harassment by unidentified female staff members of hers.
She said, Well, we'll show you what she says here in just a moment.
Let us play for you now.
Carol Mosley Braun responding to the questions by reporters about these improprieties in hiring her staff.
Here's what she said at press conference this week.
Who's gonna be on your staff?
You want to you want to get see?
I was gonna hold that for an actual press announcement.
Um, I have uh uh we haven't reached total closure on some of these.
Total closure on hiring the staff.
Oh, she is perfect for Congress.
Gridlock has begun.
Total closure.
We haven't reached closure on the hiring of the staff.
Folks, I'm gonna I'm gonna tell you another thing right now what's going on here.
This is a woman who is not equipped.
My opinion, that's what the show's about, what I think.
She's not equipped by virtue of experience or for the job.
She didn't want it because she has any great ideological concerns.
If you've seen her interviewed on This Week with Brinkley by George Will, she doesn't.
She just has no clue.
She may be a totally nice woman, but she has no clue.
This is all about perks.
This is simply, you know, I've seen everybody else get theirs, and I want my piece of the pie now.
It's simply get me in there, and it's my turn.
It's our turn.
I want in the inside.
That's what all this is about, as you'll soon see.
Now, here is what she said about her vacation and the arrangements and all of that.
Take a look.
I planned for this vacation.
I saved for this vacation.
I've paid for this vacation out of private resources.
I have not taken a dime of campaign funds for anything.
By the way, that boyfriend of hers, her campaign manager accused of sexual harassment.
She said, uh unfounded charges.
I don't think it has anything to do with it.
We'll show you what she says about it.
Um this business of her expenditure and everything, vacation, what it costs, we've put together a little budget.
She makes $50,000 a year as Cook County recorder of deeds.
Don't put it up there yet, Chet, because we I want to take a break.
Let's go to a break.
We'll come back and we'll just run down as we've put it together here, being very fair, very even-handed, extremely understanding of the costs of things these days, and we'll find out just how much.
By the way, that boyfriend, she's paying 15 grand a month, too, to run her campaign.
It's twice what they get in Illinois Fort.
Be back with the budget.
Don't go away.
Thank you.

Hi, welcome back.
This is Rush Limbaugh, the television show, the show that looks like America.
I just asked members of our audience, anybody in the audience from Illinois.
Not one hand went up, even though I know there's got to be somebody there.
Um they're just afraid to admit it.
And I know you people in Illinois got to be embarrassed.
You're the ones who've done this to us.
You're the ones who have elected this woman and sent her to the United States Senate in this the year of the woman.
But as is always the case here at Rush Limbaugh, the television show, Rush Limboyer prices.
We don't get upset at this stuff.
We look at it as fun city.
Now, let's look at this trip, her her her cheap and all.
We've put together a budget here because we're going to show you Democrats' version of deficit spending.
And we want to show you just how odd this story is and how tough it is to believe.
Now, we've we've put together the budget.
We're gonna run a total on it as we go.
Her salary is fifty thousand dollars a year.
As Cook County recorder of deeds.
Now, as a member of the Senate, she's gonna get $120,000, but it is important to remember for this exercise, you people, that she has not received that money yet.
She's being paid at the rate of $50,000.
Remember, she had to give back the $28,000 she stole from the welfare department because they caught her.
She had to give it back.
She said she didn't steal it.
She said she didn't still.
I'll take it back.
She did she had to give back the money she mistakenly kept.
So we can't kind of now.
We figure she pays taxes, but she's a Democrat in Chicago, and that may not be true.
But we nevertheless think that it is, and we figured $12,000.
This is this is roughly about 30% or $22, $25%, whatever it is, uh taxes.
Um a grand total, then we have $38,000 here to work with.
So she got $30,000 a year.
Now what'd she do?
She bought a Jeep.
Now I have purchased a Jeep.
I know what Jeep costs.
We're gonna give her the benefit of the doubt.
Say she got it at cost because she knows somebody, a Democrat who owns a dealership.
She got it for $22,000, but she didn't pay that.
We're figuring $500 a month for the payments plus insurance if she can get it.
Times $12.
So we're figuring six thousand dollars for the Jeep.
That gives us a total now of $32,000 to work with.
Then she moved on up, and we're moving on up, moving on up.
She moved from a thousand dollar a month pad to a thirty-three hundred dollar a month high rise on Lake Shore Drive, Lake Michigan Drive, somewhere in Chicago.
That $3,300 times $12,000, $39,600 per year.
Ring it up.
And there we're into the red here, folks.
She's down $7,500.
She's not in South Africa yet.
Okay.
She's down $7600.
Now she bought some expensive clothes for this vacation.
I asked some women, what do you think for 30 days expensive clothes?
What do you think?
They said $10,000.
We're being conservative with this.
The shoes alone could probably cost $500 a pair, depending on where she bought it.
We're gonna be conservative.
$10,000.
We ring the new total.
She is $17,600 in the red, still not in South Africa.
She got to get there.
She's gonna fly first class.
She's a member of the U.S. Senate.
It's time to get hers.
She's got the perks.
First class airfare to South Africa three.
She took her son, she took her boyfriend campaign manager, Cozy Matthews, and herself as three people.
We called a travel agent.
$4,000 one-way first class times three's $12,000, new total, $29,600 in the red.
She is in South Africa.
Now she's landed.
We'll deal with the costs of that in just a moment.
Now, she's got to leave South Africa after being there for 30 days.
So she's got to fly from South Africa to London.
This is what she did.
First class airfare for two, one way, South Africa to London, $6,000.
There you see it.
New total deficit spending, $35,600.
She then took the Concord back.
This is the supersonic airplane we showed you the beginning show.
London and New York, we checked it out.
We called.
We don't make things up on this show.
$10,000 one way for all three of them.
She's now $45,600 in the hole.
She took a private jet back from New York to Chicago.
Now, it was a gift, but she's got to report that, especially now since we have done this show.
And now what I also have chartered jets.
I'm a big star.
Sometimes I have to avoid crowds.
I know what this costs.
$10,000 if she's.
It's just a lear.
She's gonna pay around $10,000.
Lear's a small jet.
$10,000, new deficit spending total.
$55,600.
Now let's go back to South Africa.
She's got to stay there in a hotel, right?
Now, this is where it gets interesting.
She got three people.
Her boyfriend and her son.
Did she get one room?
Did she get two rooms?
And who slept in the second room?
Did they get a three-bedroom suite?
We figured she's a virtuous woman.
The Democrat in Illinois.
Virtuous woman.
We're not gonna make any assumptions.
Three bedroom suite.
We were conservative.
30 days, $9,000 for her hotel in South Africa.
Grand total.
$64,600.
In the red.
She said she didn't use any campaign spending.
She didn't.
She saved up for this.
She saved up for it.
We're not counting food in South Africa.
We're not counting car rentals.
We're not counting any of this stuff.
We're not counting cable TV bills.
Well, we're not counting tours.
We're not counting safaris.
Whatever she did over there.
We're just getting a hotel.
We're not adding food.
The woman has to live.
We're not counting makeup.
We're not counting the condoms that I'm sorry, didn't mean to mention condoms.
She can get those for free.
She called Joe Fernandez in New York, New York City Public School.
Now I didn't mean.
But you know, you've you've you've you've got you've got all kinds of incidental living expenses that we have not even tagged.
We have been more than fair, would you all not agree?
Right.
Now there's one other item.
The phone.
One of the big complaints is that she hasn't gone to any of the Senate orientations.
She's not put together staff.
She hasn't been in contact with anybody.
So we figured that she was very economical.
Here's how much she spent on phone calls to her staff from Johannesburg, South Africa to Chicago.
Zero.
Grand total deficit spending.
$64,000.
In the meantime, 10 members of her campaign staff have not been paid for a long time.
She's $500,000 in debt, and she purchases all of this stuff.
She's paying her campaign manager $15,000 a month.
That's a rate of $180,000 a year.
He didn't work that long, but but that's that's the rate.
Um, and uh he's been accused of sexual harassment.
This woman, my friends, bears a lot of watching.
I think she's not even well, she is in the Senate now, but this all happened before she was in the Senate.
She is a great Democrat.
She's gonna be fun to watch.
We'll be doing just that.
We'll be back with more right after this.
Don't worry about it.
Thank you.

Take a look.
I've never made any uh uh bones about uh dating Jose Matthews or going out with anybody.
Uh matter of fact, I'll tell you who I date if you if you're if you're interested, although I think that's personal and private.
In terms of the campaign effort, it is consistent with my 15 years of fighting for women, that I would absolutely want to know all the facts.
I would absolutely want to know whether or not this occurred, and quite frankly, had I gotten information that something like this occurred in the context of the campaign, I would have moved on it immediately.
Boy, wouldn't it have been great to hear that about the idiocy and the silliness of Anita Hill's unfounded charges?
Isn't it funny to point out this hypocrisy of sexual harassment?

Thanks to us.
Make up your own mind.
Now let's go to the Culver Military Academy.
This, this, my friends, is a I think of uh uh uh something of note.
The Culver Military Academy horse team, uh, there they are even now, uh, have uh marched in presidential inauguration since 1957.
They're out of there this year.
The Clinton administration said no, and instead, the Washington Post has reported that the inaugural parade, groups had been invited to participate are a precision lawn chair marching team, a reggae band, two Elvis impersonators, and the lesbian and gay band of America.
They can march, but the Culver Academy can't.
Our cameras have spotted rehearsals on the part of these groups.
Our cameras are rehearsing all over the world for this inaugural parade, and here is the footage that we have found exclusive from the Rush TV show.
That's the precision lawn chair team.
Here comes a short little Elvis impersonator.
Who does this guy think he's kidding?
Looks more like Daniel Inowa.
That guy's a.
And now, this must be, yeah, that's well, there's a transvestite sunprints at uh dykes on bikes there, gay men's on dope, uh precision marching through the lawn chairs and ah, dikes on bikes are there.
That's what it's gonna look like, folks.
That's what this inauguration is going to look like.
Oh, shut up.
See, guys.
And the Culver.
The Culver Military Academy horse team is out of there in favor of that collection.
A wandering parade of dare we say human.
Ah, never mind.
Good thing we're out of time here, folks, but we'll be back with another show tomorrow, so don't go anywhere.
Bye.
services provided in promotional fees paid by the following rush limbaugh's wardrobe by rochester big and tall speak of the pure politics i find it difficult to understand
How the White House, for example, could not have coordinated uh with a senator as powerful as Sam Nunn on such an issue.
Well, I think they probably were in touch with Sam Nunn.
I don't think there was any breakdown of communication between Sam Nunn and the president.
I think they're friends, as a matter of fact.
Uh, I think that uh could he have played the game differently?
Sure, he could have played the game differently.
Uh, but I think that everyone has to respect the president who campaigns and says black is black or white is white, and then speaks the same language after he gets elected.
You have to have a kind of respect for him, even though it's a very difficult issue.
Political consultant Paul Bigella helped Bill Clinton win the White House.
So what are you gonna do now?
I mean, how do you how do you help the president get over what is clearly a major hurdle?
Well, you you try to make your case.
And you make it as best you can.
You appeal both to the principle and the pragmatism behind the policy.
Uh you state it clearly and unequivocally, and then you move on.
I think one of the reasons that this issue is taking on such a life of its own is that it is existing in a vacuum.
Uh, one of the reasons we're able to talk tonight, for example, is that you're not going live from Port-au-Prince.
Because President Clinton saw crisis coming and he averted it.
And he should he should get credit for that.
I know it's not the nature of the media, and I don't mean this as a criticism that people don't stand up and say, well, you know, tonight, Peter, there are no boat people coming from Haiti because President Clinton took decisive action to stop them from coming.
But he did.
And so we have to talk about something.
The economic package is not ready yet.
Once that's ready, it'll suck all the oxygen out of these other stories.
They're gonna wither and die because the economy really is what President Clinton is focusing on like a laser beam, just as he said the day after the election.
But between now and then, what does this do to other policies?
What is the what does this do to affect the overall perception of how successful he is in his first week in office?
And what difference does that make?
Well, exactly.
The voters gave him four years.
Constitution gives him four years.
Uh, we've got to deliver on those meat and potato issues.
Does a president modify his position when he feels that public opinion is going too much against him?
Modifies his position if he feels that it would be wrong not to.
And that that can be affected by a lot of factors.
Wrong ethically or wrong politically.
Wrong ethically, wrong, uh, just materially, whether or not the policy won't work.
And then finally, I mean, you can't always bow to public pressure.
You can't bat public pressure just because of the fact of public pressure if you believe you're standing for the right thing.
But certainly you can modify details and modify the way you do things.
At the moment, it seems as though the president will have no option but to modify his original plan, which of course was to legalize gays in the military by executive order.
The most powerful man in Congress on military affairs is, as you've heard, the chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, Senator Sam Nunn of Georgia.
He told me this evening that if President Clinton holds off on issuing that executive order, he believes that Congress will hold off on writing current Pentagon policy into law.
Senator Nunn is pushing for Senate hearings on all sides of the issue.
Perhaps in March.
That would give everyone time to cool off and compromise.
It may be the best offer President Clinton will get.
I'll be back in a moment.

Hey folks, welcome to the only television show of its kind, the Rush Limbaugh television show.
We are here to get started.
A lot to do tonight.
Just gonna run down these Monitors, tell you what's coming up on the show, then take care of some business that we have to straighten out or add to from last night.
As you know, hypocrisy running rampant now from the Clintons as they have decided to send their daughter Chelsea to a private school in Washington, D.C. This is now wait, be kind.
Be kind.
I I don't blame him for doing it.
That's, I mean, you if if you lived in DC, would you send your kid to a public school there?
Well, but you would have to, you see, unless you have lots of money or lots of influence.
What Bill Clinton did, you, most of you, most of you, don't have the chance to do.
And he doesn't want you to have the chance to do.
Oh, we're going to talk about that tonight.
Yes, we are.
This is the school.
Notice how they've pictured it here.
Look at the old modern version of the old one-room cabin.
A one-room schoolhouse.
She'll probably be walking 12 miles a day to school.
I get to the place.
This is uh from last night.
You know, I liked the line I used so much about her last night that I said I want to do it again.
The line is this is Patricia Ireland, the president of the now gang.
She her husband, a painter, lives in Florida.
Her uh girlfriend lives in Washington.
That's where she lives.
The biggest punishment of if you really wanted to ruin her day, you'd make her go out on a date with her husband.
We have.
See, it works.
It works because it's clever.
And nobody else on TV would dare say it.
Sexual harassment update on tonight's show.
Also, my friends, have you heard about the latest potential danger to males in this country?
This, if you put this in your hair, this can happen to you.
You can die.
And of course, our fourth monitor, I can promise we won't get to it tonight, so don't ask what's there.
Okay, now, last night, you'll recall, or yesterday, we showed you a receipt from a Walmart store in Moore, Oklahoma.
Why, there it is.
The magic of TV, you can look at it.
Now, see down there, keep it up there, Chet.
See where it says sweet liar down there.
This, there it is.
We even make it bigger so you can see it easier.
That is uh, as it turns out, the title of a book.
Our staff yesterday, when we heard about this, see that guy bought my book at that at that Walmart store and got home, looked at the receipt and said, Sweet liar.
I didn't buy that.
Why?
They're calling Russia a liar, and it's a secret code in there.
So he sent us a note in that receipt to let us know.
And that's what we reported last night.
We were wrong.
There is a book called Sweet Liar.
Here it is.
It's by Jude Devereaux.
There's Jude on the back.
She's not bad.
Um it's a uh, I'm sorry for noticing.
I'm sorry for noticing.
It's a sexist thing I did.
Sorry for we said this book didn't exist.
Turns out the book does exist, but not even the publisher knew.
We called, we called the company that publishes this book.
Same company that publishes mine.
They didn't know it existed.
So, anyway, uh the guy who runs the book department at Walmart, uh, his name is Kendall Kilman.
And he he sent this note here, he apologized to us and said, Look, this does not mean your book is not being credited with the sale.
He told us how it works.
Uh, it's too lengthy and complicated to go in here, uh, go into here.
But the the simple fact of the matter is uh they can't keep enough of my books in stock.
He said, send us more now that we got you on the phone, Rush.
You gotta send more in there because we can't keep them on the shelves.
Which, of course, was great news.
We uh we enjoyed hearing it.
So uh, those of you out there who are uh giving Walmart grief, please don't.
They're great great American tradition, and we didn't last night to get mad at them.
We thought that there was some loco weed running around.
They're just having some fun with the barcodes.
Turns out there is uh there is this book.
Also, got a fax today at the office.
TV guides got this cover story.
I'm sure you've heard about this.
All these Rumors that President Reagan voted for Clinton.
Some uh yeah, right, is exactly.
One of the uh unidentified anonymous Clinton staffers is out there saying that it happened.
Well, I in my office today got this fax.
Take a look at it.
We'll put it up.
Statement by President Reagan.
I'm gonna read this to you.
Los Angeles, after more than 80 years on this earth and several decades in public life, I thought I'd heard everything.
But this week's TV guide story ranks up there with the worst of them.
To put an end to such nonsense, I'll spell it out for you once and for all.
I actively campaigned and energetically supported George Bush in the November election, and I proudly cast my vote for him.
So there we are.
Okay!
Please, please!
Please, please, please.
We have the rest of the show tonight.
I know this is you want to applaud with virtually every syllable I say.
But you gotta have to control yourself.
Finally, ladies and gentlemen, this is this is just funny as it can be.
You all know who Al Sharpton is.
Well known black leader and black civil rights advocate and so forth, and and uh Al Sharpton wants to be the president of the New York City Council.
He's gonna run for city council presidency in 1993.
There was a problem.
It seems that Al didn't file a tax return in 1986.
Now you would think that that would hurt you.
No, no, no.
In New York, that's resume enhancement.
What you here's what you did.
No, no, no.
He copped a plea.
He copped a plea.
Now, normally when you cop a plea, you go down to say, well, yeah, I did it, but I'll admit to doing it, and then you won't punish me for it.
That's how you cop a plea.
You plea bargain the charge down.
He admitted it full-fledged.
He plea bargained guilt in preparation to run for the New York City City Council.
In other words, you cannot run for office in New York City without a guilty verdict on your record.
I wondered, could it be he may not have even done this?
He may, it may have been made, you know, because the general, mayor Dinkins, he didn't pay his taxes for two years.
He just forgot.
And look at him, he's mayor.
See, Sharpton only didn't pay his for one year, so he can only run for city council.
What though, if he did pay?
He could have just he could just be lying about this guilty verdict so as to get votes.
Uh, we have a rest of our show.
Think about it.
Rest of our show's coming right up.
Don't go away.
We'll be right back.

APPLAUSE Thank you!
Why don't we just do that?
Why don't we just do a whole show of applause?
No, no, no, don't do it.
Don't do it.
You know, ladies and gentlemen, we have some members of the New York City police department in the audience tonight, New York's finest.
And they're saying, Rush, no, you sound like you want Sharpton to be elected.
I'm saying, yeah, it would be fun for what I do.
And uh they said no.
So uh it's it's not all happiness and unison here on this issue.
Now, uh Bill Clinton and his daughter Chelsea and school choice.
Now, first off, I as I said at the top of the show, you can't quarrel with with with if if I'm for school choice.
I think parents ought to have the right to choose where their kids go to school.
That's called competition.
That would create competition that's going to make all schools better, including the public schools.
Now, Bill Clinton thinks that he should have that choice too.
He exercised it.
He found you don't have the tuition to this school.
Let's show you the school.
This is the uh the the Friends of the Sidwell Friends School, and this is where so many children of elite rich parents in Washington attend school.
We have a list of those names coming up for you in just a moment.
Uh, I have no quarrel with him sending his his kid there, but you don't have that right, and he doesn't want you to have that right.
He is beholden to the National Education Association.
They're a major, major lobby.
Now, Bill Bennett, a good friend of mine, was on Good Morning America today and pretty much summed up uh the hypocrisy that is evident here.
Let him say it.
They have uh they made personal uh judgment as to what was best for Chelsea, and that's fine.
I don't argue with the personal decision, but it does show the liberal hypocrisy when it comes to the issue of school choice.
Uh the Clintons made the best decision for their daughter, but this is not a decision that poor people can make as long as you have the current uh monopoly.
I saw the heads of the teachers' unions on this morning saying, well, that's his decision.
Uh they didn't want uh the Clinton's daughter, they just uh they just want the money.
Let's show you some of the uh other parents you'll recognize the names who are sending or have sent their kids to this school.
Donald Graham, that's uh publisher in the Washington Post, Judy Woodruff, PBS McNeil there, Albert Hunt, married to her.
They have sent their kids.
Their kids go to the school now.
Next page, Porfavour, Spanish lingo there.
Senator Jeff Bingaman from New Mexico, Bill Bradley from New Jersey sends his kids there.
Senator Max Baucus of Montana, I think we have even more.
David Brinkley of ABC, Leslie Stahl of CBS, uh Marion Wright Edelman.
Now that's interesting down at the bottom.
She's head of the children's defense fund, and she's one of Hillary's big buds.
And uh they've all they've all sent their kids there.
Now, now a lot of people say, Rush, why are you being so critical?
I again, I'm not being critical of the decision.
But here's a guy.
See, he's he that this is symbolism over substance.
He's been trapped by symbolism, folks.
Because here's a guy who's planning his inauguration, this big parade with bus tours and all this stuff.
Every bit of his campaign was symbolism, the volleyball games, the jogging of the beats, the going to McDonald's, it's symbolism.
So if you're gonna live by symbolism, you've got to be prepared to die by it.
If you can live by the photo op, you gotta be prepared to die by the photo op.
And Bill Clinton's spokesman, George Stephanopoulos said, Look, this is a personal decision.
This is no politics entered into this.
Well, his supporters think you can't keep politics Out of it, liberals believe that politics should govern the way you live your personal life.
And if you don't live your personal life according to their politics, you're a bad person.
You're mean and you're evil.
Now, here's the full impact of the hypocrisy.
Bill Clinton was seven years old when his mother moved their family from Hope, Arkansas to Hot Springs, Arkansas.
Now, that's another little side issue because they've got this film, The Man from Hope.
He didn't grow up in hope.
He left hope.
He left Hope at age seven, went to Hot Springs.
Hot Springs in Arkansas is the equivalent of little or of Las Vegas in Nevada.
So they couldn't, the man from Las Vegas.
They just wouldn't fly.
So they make up this big bee about going to Hope.
When they got to Hope, Arkansas, his mother didn't like the school.
It wasn't good enough.
His mother decided and then chose to put him in, of all things a Catholic school.
Do you know Bill Clinton was taught by nuns?
And his mother is on record as saying it's the best decision she ever made for him.
Now, interestingly, here, in addition to all that, the choice aspect of this and his mother exercising it, when you're taught at a Catholic school, you're taught the Ten Commandments.
You're taught certain elements of religion.
And Bill Clinton says the best thing that ever happened to him.
His mother says it's the best thing that ever happened to him.
But here's Bill Clinton saying, Now you can't have any prayer school, no religion.
He's everything that happened to him that made him what he thinks he is, no good for anybody else.
And it's not because he doesn't believe it, it's because his supporters won't let him be himself because he's got to pay off these ultra-liberal groups.
This school that Chelsea is going to is a Quaker school.
It's a religious school.
There are elements of religious instruction taught.
So he knows how important it is.
He's sending his daughter to the best school he can find.
But he wants to deny you the same opportunity.
That's what if you hear the school voucher plan discussed, that's what it's all about.
You say, Well, I can't afford it anyway, no matter what.
You could, if they let you spend the equivalent of what's being spent for you on public education and give you a voucher in the amount of your share of public education and say, you can spend that voucher at any school you want.
You could do the same thing Bill Clinton just did.
But Bill Clinton doesn't want you to do that because the National Education Association, the big teachers' union, would have a fit.
The big teachers' unions have set themselves up so that they don't have to be tested by quality.
They got a monopoly, and it doesn't matter, therefore, how good they do teaching your kids.
And as we all know, many people are dissatisfied with the job they're doing.
But if you had vouchers and if you could send your kid to whatever school you wanted, just as the Clintons have done, that would improve education all the way around.
This hypocrisy is blatant, and it raises this question where is the soul of Bill Clinton?
What is the soul of Bill Clinton?
This is a good example of how the next four years may look on a lot of issues.
We'll be back with more right after this.

When you choose your six o'clock news, look for the difference that matters.
Turn to ABC World News tonight at 5:30 and 19 Eye Witness News at 6.
See the difference that matters on W H O I, your news source in the heart of Illinois.
You may be used to hearing words like single, quarter, and junior to describe most burgers, but a dad means we use words like T bone, ribeye, and sirloin to describe our steak burgers.
Dad means is the only restaurant in the area to grind beef daily, right here in the store.
We also use a local product to ensure quality and freshness.

My hands explored you.
That was Anita Hill in our sexual harassment segment coming up.
I was just told that I that I inadvertently said that Mrs. Kelly, Virginia Kelly, uh went to hope.
She left hope.
I thought I made that clear, Dick.
They're harassing me.
I thought they left.
He left hope and she did not go back to hope.
Not even to get the groceries.
She left hope.
They went to Hot Springs.
All right, Bob Packwood was seated despite the angry protestations of the Feminazis.
This is a man who's been accused of sexual harassment.
Here is a protest.
Now see if this is not an elevating thing.
See if this doesn't make you feel better at the feminist group.
Listen to this.
Pack your bags.
Pack your bags, pack wood, pack your bags.
Real elevating stuff.
There you go.
There's the now gang label.
That's they're out there, they're upset.
A bunch of women have come forth and said that he harassed them.
Uh now, Patricia Ireland, who again we could really punish by making her have a date with her husband.
Said the following about this evil guy, Packwood.
take a listen packwood continues to insist that he just didn't get it when he committed unquestionable acts of physical assault that were beyond the bounds of propriety even by pre-anita hill standards For the Senate to confirm this man would be a mockery and an embarrassment to the institution and to the U.S. Congress as a whole.
Let's get something straight about this.
Real quick.
Bob Packwood maybe did bother some women sexually.
And I'm not here to defend him, but I do think that there's too much inconsistency in all of this.
Because you remember during the Clarence Thomas Anita Hill hearings.
They asked some feminist commentator, one of the one of the people on TV did said, Well, if no means no, what what does that mean?
What what what should a woman do?
What should a man do to ask a woman out?
And the answer was no means no.
And when a man asks a woman out, he should do so very carefully.
But if she says no, that's the end of it.
Now, in the real world, everybody knows that no doesn't mean no all the time.
Sometimes it means maybe, and sometimes it means yes.
This is a fact of life.
That's very unrealistic restriction to place on natural behavior.
But here's something I'll bet you don't know about Packwood in this situation.

Watch 2020, Friday.
Just tonight, 350 Marines based at Camp Pendleton made their homecoming.
They are among the first veterans of the massive humanitarian operation in Somalia.
and for that reason they bring back war stories of a different kind Oh, it's definitely worthwhile.
Um when uh we went into Baidoa, and uh well, we when we first got there, don't going down the main street to buy dough was pretty sparse.
There wasn't a lot of uh commerce, wasn't anything going on, and in the short time we were there, uh, we were there about three weeks.
When we were leaving, you could see a big difference.
I know that we had a beneficial effect.
I went on one of the food convoys.
I saw them deliver, oh, I think it was 300 tons worth of food, uh, wheat from Australia and corn from France.
Um I saw it delivered to the villages, and I saw the faces on the people.
Uh, I saw the kids coming out smiling and waving, and I felt in my heart that hey, we're doing something right, and this is good.
I thought it was definitely one of the most memorable things I've ever done in my life.
I'll never forget that place.
There's a lot of improvement that needs to be done.
But there was a lot of improvement that that was done while we were there.
Main concern about that country is to get a government.
I think it's gonna be hard to establish a government where the people are so divided.
They have uh so many clans, so many groups of people.
It's gonna be hard for them to establish a government that people will follow.
It's a country that's gone amuck.
Um, there's no government, there's no control, and it reminds me of a Mad Max movie.
Uh, and the only control there was the U.S. Marines.
There's still a lot of work to be done to be accomplished in Somalia.
A great deal of work.
We barely barely dropped made a little drop over there to help with the food lines.
But if the people there don't care for themselves and care for their country, it's not gonna get better.
That's not gonna get better.
I I personally agree with the Marine Corps mission.
Let's go in there, let's get it done, and let's get out, and let's hand over the responsibility to some other countries.
And uh I would, if anybody asks my opinion, I would certainly urge that be done as quickly as possible.
That needs to go to the UN peacekeeping troops.
Uh, we we can't stay there as the policeman forever.
It's just not uh it's not feasible.
I'll be back in a moment.

Greetings to all in Northwest Ohio.
We've signed on a new station in Toledo, folks, NWO Channel 24.
It's an ABC affiliate.
I'm on at 6 and 11.
They can't get enough of me in Toledo.
They've had to put me on twice.
Don't miss it.
How was that?
Is that all right?
Good.
Okay.
Get that done.
How long did the show start?
Four on.
That was the start of the show.
You I thought the countdown.
I thought the countdown.
Greetings, my friends, and welcome to Rush Limbaugh, the television show.
I thought that countdown was for the promo.
I was supposed to do this promo.
And I was wondering where the teleprompter was.
You know, it's your last day on this show, Matt, and that's my and it really is.
We're not being unkind.
It's been great having you with us, Matt.
Matt's been the floor manager all week long while uh our regular floor manager's gonna wait.
Now could we bring the lights down?
It's our fireside chat show.
It's time now, ladies and gentlemen, to start the fake.
There it owes.
Remote control romance, the environmental fireplace.
There it is.
That makes liberals happy.
Symbolism over substance.
Now, there are a number of you out there who are no doubt pleased that we do this.
You are phony.
We'd like to now show you real.
We have an animal rights contingent in our audience in the front row.
Can we take a shot?
Some women have shown up.
There they are.
Now let's show you how they came attire.
our way That was real.
That is real.
Hey, is uh is Deborah here?
Deborah?
Deborah, ask me the question that you asked me last night.
This is this is this is our commie babe makeup artist, Deborah, who loves me now.
When we started the show, show us too conservative, but now ask me the question.
I miss the question I asked you why does it seem that most conservative men get divorced.
Yeah, uh here's here's what she said.
She can't we finished the show last night, and I'm busy unwinding.
This is a monumental project.
I'm sitting in my real TV show host office, and Deborah kind of walks in to take the makeup off my face.
She says, hey, how come so many conservative guys get divorced?
Well, I'll tell you, folks, I didn't miss a minute.
I'll tell you why.
People, I'll tell you why men get divorced.
I don't know about conservative men.
It's real simple.
It's because we accept the responsibilities of life.
We're out there trying to make a better life for our families, our wives, or whatever.
And while we're out there doing that, they get bored because we're not spending enough time with them.
You don't spend enough time with see, try to tell the truth.
You're not spending enough time with me, it isn't it?
So, you end up leaving for some guy who sells jeans at some shop, making one-third what your divorced husband makes.
That's fun for a couple of years, and then you miss the good times.
You miss the good life, and you want somebody who's out there who'll spend 50 hours a week with you and 50 hours a week working, Deborah, so that you can have all you want in life.
For two years you want romance, and then you want the fur coat.
And anyway, anyway.
Anyway, we actually we actually like ourselves a lot here, and we like each other a lot, and then we we did have fun with that.
But I really believe that.
I mean, I've I've been divorced twice, and it wasn't my fault.
I was out doing what I supposed to do.
I thought and uh, well, I don't want to share my dirty laundry with everybody, but I want to uh once again show you the map, folks, of everywhere this show can be seen.
Not much has changed.
We've added a lot of stations in Alaska, we'll let all the stations in Baja, a lot of stations in Mexico.
But there's still this lingering little red dot here.
Our nation's capital, Washington, D.C., where this Show still cannot be seen.
And again, the answer to the question, why, Rush, can't your show be seen in Washington?
Because whatever general manager decides to take this show will never be invited to a party the next four years in Washington.
Because of the politically incorrect thing to do.
Now, let me show you a couple of things, though, to illustrate just what a mistake in a business sense this is.
Uh Chet, let's show the printout from the Washington Post.
This is the Washington Post, folks.
Uh, last week.
That's the top selling books.
Number one, the way things ought to be by me.
I mean, it's not as though we're not popular there.
Now, most shows would not do what we're gonna do.
Now, most of the time we wouldn't do it, but we're different.
And that's why we are gonna do it.
This is electronic media.
This is a trade publication.
There's a long shot of it.
It's read by people who run television stations and who generally work in television and radio in the broadcast industry.
This is the cover of the most recent issue, January 4th, 1993 survey of stations, the mood of the market, the most rewarding purchases of 92.
What they did, this magazine surveyed Station General Manager said, What was the best decision you made in syndicated programming you decided to air on your station this year?
Now put that cover back up there, Chet.
We tied the most rewarding purchases this show and Roseanne.
Now, if you open, if you open this up, open it up to page four, take a look at this story.
Rush Tops Snaps list for sweeps.
That's a rating service and an audience measurement service.
Now, when you see all this, I mean, obviously we're proud of it, and and the reason it's happening is because you're watching the show and we love you for it, and we're grateful and uh highly appreciative.
But when you see this, I mean they in Washington are carrying television shows with one third the audience this show has, and they still don't want to carry this show.
Do you think it's a business decision?
No.
But there's more.
Broadcasting magazine.
This is another trade publication.
And I now turn to the inside here, and there's a little story.
There it is.
Let me read just portions of it to you.
The Lone Star shining in late night has been multimedia entertainment's half hour Rush Limbaugh Strip.
And the rest of it goes on to talk about how well we're doing and gives the details.
My point is, folks, is that there is no business reason why this show is not in Washington.
It's purely a political reason, as we have demonstrated.
Now, what else do we have in this segment before?
That's it.
What do we have later on of the show?
We've got some viewer videos, and they are superb.
And guess what?
I never would ask you to do what I wouldn't do.
And so I just returned from vacation.
I have my own home video from vacation.
I'm wearing shorts and a golf shirt.
And I'm going to show it to you next when we come back.

Uh I just got back from Hawaii.
I had a great time over there.
I uh stayed at a place called Holly Kalani, and I met the general manager and his wife Urs Abe.
He's from Switzerland and his wife Katie.
Gorgeous hotel.
I have a picture of it to show you.
Also, I got a tour of the USS Indianapolis.
It is a uh nuclear sub.
You ought to see the bunks on this.

And I've I've I'll tell you, it's a these bunks, they look like bookshelves.
They're not much bigger than this.
And uh they're not longer than 5'8.
If you're longer than 5'8 or taller than 5'8, you can't stretch out in these things.
I mean, it's it really is cramped.
The largest room on board is the mess, and it's the size of two picnic tables for huge submarine.
And the people who serve on this thing uh have a very important job.
There's a little footage.
I took my video camera and I brought some footage back, and we've put it together just so that I can get in on this home video stuff like you people always do.
And here's some footage.
It starts out with uh some footage of a house in Maui that a friend of mine from Sacramento just built.
This is a gorgeous house.
And I'd love to show you the whole thing, but I didn't get his permission.
Now, this is the hotel room.
This is a Holly Kalani.
This is this is where I was staying on vacation, and out that window there, that's Diamond Head.
We're on Waikiki on Oahu.

The flag is on this set.
They sent that to us.
We'll show you that in uh just a second.
That little ridge in the mountains that were the Japanese Zeros flew in for the attack on Pearl Harbor.
They flew straight that way and then made a right turn as you're or left turn, actually, as you're looking there to where the Arizona Memorial uh was.
Captain David Zacharias is the skipper of the USS Indianapolis, a great crew, and uh it's a it's a unique thing to see uh to be able to see that uh submarine and nuclear sub and see how it works and so forth.
Access a periscope and you go down the hatch just like you see in the movies.

Thanks for letting me say it.
Then hang out.
Now we want to go back, show you some videos from last year.
We got one more for 93.
We want to show you some from last year, some of our highlight videos from last year, ones we think are the best.
And we've actually lifted these from previous programs, so you'll hear the way they actually aired from those previous programs in 1992.
The first one we called dumpster dining.
This is an amazingly creative uh video.
This is a guy, this is before the election, and uh he is uh coming home.
This is a voter and a former a great American citizen uh arriving home.
He's gonna let the trash dumpster collector people know that he's home by putting that flag up.
And uh he's now he's arriving home.
He's he's getting in.
There he goes.
Now the we have audio, you can have half-eaten chicken and some sourdough bread.
Great.
Hey, you know, I was so skeptical of taxes under Bill Clinton.
But since we laid off all of the employees and let the business go back to the bank, aborted the children, and sent the house and the car back to the finance company.
We don't have to pay any taxes.
This is life in the West Lane, people.
It just doesn't get any better than this.
LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE Our next one.
This is just priceless.
So many uh people have sent uh uh videos in of their children.
We love children on this show, as you can imagine.
And uh this one we call the Kid Crib.
take a look at this one Sneaking into the living room here.
Don't worry, he's not drunk.
It's got responsible plans.
Now watch.
Came home, got out of the crib to watch Rush Limbaugh, the television show.
Getting hold of these young skulls full of mush, folks, and forming them and shaping them to great conservative Americans.
How much time left on this show, uh, Matt.
All right, we have we have a couple of minutes left, and this is our final uh video for the night from 1993.
Um this one is really, really fun.
I think very creative and funny.
We call it the mint commercial.
Here it is.
Take a look.
Introducing sexual harassments.
Feminist everywhere.
Are you tired of that annoying normal male behavior in the workplace?
Are you fed up with the inconvenience of having to falsely accuse your male competitors of sexual harassment in order to climb the corporate or political ladder?
Well, now your worries are over.
Thanks to the amazing new product from Anitico, sexual harassments.
Just one mint dissolved in his favorite hot beverage will transform your male competitor into a totally docile wimpy wet noodle head.
Thanks to our special tranquilizer ingredient, we guarantee that slimy male will have a skull full of mush and be unfit for any private or government office except Congress for at least 24 hours.
No more messy legal battles or perjury allegations.
I'm fierce, I'm feminist, and I'm in your face.
The mints that make your man a mouse available in all fine liberal establishments.
Now I heard, I heard, because I have superb hearing.
I heard some groaning in the audience from some women out there, but I think there are a lot of men who look at this whole uh sexual harassment issue as uh as that.
But see, anyway, the the the point is that it's not even something you can have fun with without some people getting old disturbed and upset.
And don't forget, it's not.
What are you trying to chop off your arm or something?
You know, we have signals in TV.
This just I said, give me that for a half minute.
This guy's going.
It's Matt, we've enjoyed having you.
I mean, it's been great.
Gender-based.
What is it?
Gender-based power abuse or something like that, is what sexual harassment is.
Anyway, hope you guys have a great next couple of days, and we'll see you with our next show.
Hope you're here, because we will be.
See ya.
So this is provided.
promotional fees paid by the Calloway.
All right, let's just get.
Oh, look at that tie.
Man, that shows.
Now, see, from this distance, the home viewing audience cannot tell Sandy what this tie is.
Why don't you zoom in tight here, uh, John?
See what those are?
Those are hearts, folks.
Yes.
I'm such a warm-hearted conservative kind of guy.
All right, well, we've got a show tonight that's going to do um what uh a lot of people in the media are doing, especially the liberals in the media.
They're very disappointed, very, very disappointed at uh President elect Clinton.
He's breaking promises before he's even president.
Imagine that.
I mean stop to think about that.
That's an amazing thing.
Now, before we get to the broken promises, we'll get to that in just a second.
First off, we got some problems with some cabinet appointees.
Zoe Baird, the attorney general appointee.
There she is.
Be kind.
You know, she's not what you think.
Most of her enemies on Capitol Hill are the liberals.
This is a corporate attorney.
She's 40 years old.
She worked for Aetna Life and casually.
She'd been named attorney general.
Liberals don't like that.
They want these legal aid lawyers that have never been paid a dime to go sleep on sewer grates with the homeless and so forth.
And they go, they go serve beans to Haitians and so forth down in Miami.
That's the kind of lawyer they want to be attorney general.
And Zoe Baird is not that.
But folks, she did a no-no.
She put an ad in the paper, wanted to hire a nanny.
No Americans applied.
So she hired a couple from Peru.
Illegal immigrants, folks.
And she said, Well, what am I supposed to do?
They didn't apply.
No Americans applied.
That's right.
We have exported those jobs to Mexico.
And you know what this does prove?
I mean, let me tell you what this proves.
There are just certain jobs that Americans aren't gonna do anymore.
And those are the jobs that exported to other countries, low-wage jobs.
Nannies are not necessarily it.
But just because no Americans apply doesn't mean you break the law and go out and hire illegals.
Well, I had no choice.
That's a great excuse, isn't it?
I held up that bank because I had no choice.
I had no other way of getting money.
Now, this, folks, this is hilarious.
This next is hilarious.
How many of you saw our show on Tuesday night where we showed you the answer Les Aspen gave to the question, what do you think we should do about lifting the ban on gays in the military?
Let's play a portion of that answer again just to refresh your memory.
And if you didn't see it, it's it's uh some of you have to.
Let me say what uh let me let me tell you, uh, Senator Coach, where I'm coming on on the issue.
Um, because I think we'd be dealing with this issue in some form in any case.
I mean, I think first of all, my view is that there's some obvious uh flaws in the current policy.
I think that this is an issue that is kind of a gathering storm here.
I I see the clerk starting to noble uh a little bit.
Uh okay, okay, let me have it back here, Chet.
Now, that answer went off for 10 minutes, but it never made any more sense than what you just saw.
So I'm reading the paper today, and uh it's it's a story about uh Clinton says he's still committed to lifting the ban on gays in the military, but but he may immediately not do it, may wait a while, and aides have suggested that he consider asking Les to issue a written directive ordering The end to discrimination against homosexuals.
It takes us three weeks to read it.
And he's he still, he still wouldn't lift it.
Now that's just an example.
I mean, Clinton is running from that issue, folks, by giving it to Asmond, having a guy we just shoot you do it.
Oh, I'll tell you.
Now flip-flops, changes of mind.
Uh gee, I didn't really mean it.
Haiti.
Haiti.
To Haitians from Haiti.
He's sending them back.
They're distressed.
He's the one who's doing it.
He has broken promises.
This is the new international symbol for broken promises.
That we're gonna talk about those tonight.
And we have, if we get to this tonight, we're gonna violate a rule on this show.
We have a guest.
And it's here if we get to it.
If we don't, we'll do it some other time.
We'll be back and get started with all of it right after this.
Stay where you are, kids.
David?
Thank you.
We all know how exciting the holidays can be, but it's what we don't know that can hurt us.
Thousands of times this holiday season, while you're busy shopping for holiday gifts, a car will be stolen.
Last year alone, over 1.6 million cars were stolen in the United States.
I'm Officer Jack Clerick.
As a police officer, I've witnessed the tragic side of vehicle theft.
That's why I've teamed up with the club in Operation Lock Up to help put a stop to this crime.
The club is an effective, low-cost deterrent to rising vehicle theft.
Once attached to the steering wheel, it makes driving nearly impossible.
Plus, its bright color effectively deters thieves, convincing them to move to an easier, unprotected vehicle.
This year, don't let the holidays be an opportunity for car theft.
Make sure the anti-theft device you buy says the club on the handle.
Accept no imitations.
Ask for the club by name.
The club.

I'm practicing to be an angry feminist, folks.
Have you heard the latest thing that women are doing to recapture their legacy and their heritage?
They're playing drums out there someplace in New Jersey, in fact.
Really?
That's what they've natural heritage.
Women can express their outrage and anger by playing the drums.
the outrage and anger that the oppressive men in our society are causing them.
Well, I feel better.
I don't know what they.
This next segment, pretty much, speaks for itself.
This is a rarity on this show.
In this segment, you really don't need me.
But you're gonna get me.
Let's go back to November.
I think it's the 16th, somewhere around there.
Wait, is it is it this year?
What is it?
No, wait, wait, are you saying sure it's November?
This happened before the election, I thought.
What?
This is the statement right after the.
Right after the okay, okay, because he made this statement Before the election, too, but what I oh, okay, we have it uh in a post-election statement.
But you well, when you see this, he made this statement during the campaign.
Here it is.
I think that the blanket uh sending them back to Haiti uh under the circumstances which have prevailed for the last year was an error.
These are the refugees from Haiti coming here in boats, trying to find freedom, fleeing poverty and oppression in their own country.
And you remember during the campaign, he said that he disagreed stringently and stridently with the president that the president's policy was heartless and all that.
Clinton says, I think it's right.
Now, Bill Clinton had to make a speech, a radio address, if you will, to the people of Haiti.
It was broadcast today.
Here's an excerpt.
Many hundreds of Haitians, including women and children, have already lost their lives in dangerous sea voyages.
Just this week, some 400 Haitians hacked aboard one ship are reported to have died at sea.
For Haitians who do seek to leave Haiti, boat departure is a terrible and dangerous choice.
I've been deeply concerned by reports that many of you are preparing to travel by boat to the United States.
And I fear that boat departures in the near future would result in further tragic losses of life.
For this reason, the practice of returning those who flee Haiti by boat will continue for the time being after I become president.
Those who do leave Haiti for the United States by boat will be stopped and directly returned by the United States Coast Guard.
You know whose policy that was?
George Herbert Walker Bush.
That was the policy of the United States government.
Bill Clinton denounced it, said it wasn't any good.
He welcomed the people of Haiti, said they were going to be welcomed into our country.
So they came.
400 of them, he's right, 400 of them perished at sea because the makeshift boat they manufactured to get here sank.
You see, the thing that he forgets, and I'll tell you the media is very forgiving in this.
I guarantee you, had it been a Republican president who said, come on in.
And so they came and died in the process, and then after that said, don't come on in.
Stay there.
They would have been all over that president's front door.
Don't you think the death of those people may be at your feet?
Not one question about that toward Bill Clinton, but my friends, this is a classic example.
Words mean things.
The people in Haiti believed him.
And that's something this administration had better get used to.
The words they say, people believe.
We're going to show you in another segment of this show, but the liberal media is among the most disappointed group of people in this country because these, I'll tell you, folks, we got a president here who I don't think has a soul.
I think this guy says things for symbolic reasons.
I think he says things because he should.
It's psychobabble.
It sounds good, it makes him look good, it makes him feel good.
But he doesn't think anybody's really going to listen, but they do, especially the oppressed who want to come here and can't wait to get here.
Words mean things.
He was asked about this at a press conference recently.
Here it is, his response.
I still believe the policy should be changed.
We are changing it.
I think it should be changed more, but I don't think we can do it on a dime on January the 20th.
And I have been profoundly moved by the dangers involved.
You should be in having a lot of people set sail in homemade boats made from wood.
They told them to lose their houses.
You encouraged them to do it.
As far as we know, nearly 400 people died just a few days ago.
Yeah.
And I do not want to do anything to fuel that sort of uh danger and perilous journey.
Of course not.
That wouldn't be nice.
Uh uh policy still needs to be changed, but not on January 20th.
Maybe not all the way, but we still need to change the policy.
Words mean things.
May I take you back to the campaign.
Remember the debate?
I guess it was in Richmond, Virginia, the second debate, that idiot with the ponytail.
The Clinton poster boy, and everybody applauded this guy.
Oh, because he said, would you stop talking about each other?
Would you stop talking about character?
Treat us as your children.
What are you going to do for us?
And everybody went, oh, finally we're getting to the meat of this campaign.
And I'm telling you something, folks, you can't take character out of leadership because leadership descends from character.
And I wonder how long it's gonna be before people start questioning the character here.
This is a serious, serious problem.
Because people have died.
400 plus people have died.
And he's right, others are making votes and they're coming in.
I don't know about you, but I remember the news reports after he made the statement and after the election was over, all these excited Haitians, oh boy, how did he believe him, Mom?
I can't wait to come.
They were saying there's a lot of them.
No, no, no, don't laugh.
I mean, it they they they take words mean things.
And character is for all of you people who don't think it matters.
It matters, and it's gonna be showing that it's gonna be showing itself to you.
It's gonna demonstrate itself to you, character mattering throughout the next coming weeks.
You're gonna be blindsided by it.
Now, broken promises are up next.
Uh not to the Haitians, but to you.
Right after this.

APPLAUSE Hi, welcome back.
If if you are a subscriber to the Limbaugh Letter, one of the most successful newsletter rollouts in recent memory, then you have received this.
This is called Promises Promises.
This, there you have it, ladies and right there on your screen is side one.
It's a two-sided uh page, and it lists 50 promises made by candidate Bill Clinton.
And uh lo and behold, I told you in the rundown of the show, we can show you where the first promise has been broken.
And as I said, it happened before he was president.
Now let me show you how this works.
If you have one of these at home, Chet, put this up.
Here we go.
Uh you can't see it.
Doesn't matter.
Uh it's too you're too far away from it.
I'm just gonna show you what happens.
Here is a a column that says date broken down here.
This is a check box, and these are the promises.
Now, the promise that has been broken is number 44.
Middle class taxpayers will have a choice between a children's tax credit uh or a significant reduction in their income tax rate.
That he stated in putting people first, his massive economic plan.
Well, that promise has been broken, as we'll demonstrate for you in a minute.
Now, what you do.
It's a magic, you know, just wipe it away.
What you do, you come down here to number 44, you check the box, and you write in the date.
Like that.
And of course, you do it on your page at home, don't do it on a TV section.
And uh keep track it, and as this has been done as a service to the readers of the Limbaugh Letter, and we of course can keep you track and uh keep you uh posted and keep track of these things for you as well on television.
Now, here we have some video tape.
Uh Governor Clinton, president elect Clinton, explaining why all of a sudden he has to break this most important of promises.
Take a look.
I think I have to revisit it in light of the bigger deficit.
So there's a chance now it won't happen.
There's a chance that we'll present a slightly different program.
Because I think now watch this.
There are two issues of Eastern Middle class tax.
Making it up here as he goes.
When I first proposed in New Hampshire when the deficit was about half what we now know it to be.
It's a little more than half.
But that's not true.
That is not true.
Um there was the whole question of thinking about it now, thinking about it.
What am I gonna say?
What am I gonna say?
Whether that should contribute to a stimulation of the economy, which was very depressed, and where there was virtually no consumer demand.
All right, there you have an example of the psycho babble.
Now you hear what he's saying.
He's saying the deficit is half as high as we thought it was going to be.
It's half again as much as we thought it was going to be.
It's not.
It's $18 billion, folks, higher than what they thought.
200, what would they have?
278 billion to 292 billion if you want the numbers.
18 billion.
And for that, we gotta just throw it all away and get rid of the middle class tax cut.
Here's the truth about it.
He never intended to give you a middle class tax cut.
He just said it because he thought that it would help win the election.
Now you may say politics as usual.
It is, but you wanted change.
This is politics as usual.
This is the epitome of politics as usual, and you said you wanted change.
You don't have change, you've got the same old thing times about five.
This is pure concentrated, undiluted same old thing.
Now, now, wait, no way.
At this same press conference, he was asked, well, President elect Clinton, how do you think the people are going to judge you since you have decided to uh change your mind about the middle class tax cut now?
Watch this.
I think the American people voted for me because they knew what I can they supported the big things that we were running on.
Uh from New Hampshire forward, for reasons that absolutely mystified me.
The press thought the most important issue in the race was the middle class tax cut.
I never did meet any voter who thought that.
Oh, he never made a voter who thought a middle class tax cut was something on which they were counting on him to deliver.
Now you know why they called him slick Willie.
You never wanted it in the first place.
Why?
You know, you only wanted to, you were only concerned about the big things.
What are they?
I thought it was the economy, stupid.
And if taxes and how much you have to spend are not part of the economy, student, I don't know what is.
Now the fallout has begun, folks.
Look at this.
We have two columns just to show you.
Just want to illustrate this.
We got Michael Kinsley, well-known liberal, Washington Post, phony excuses on the deficit.
He's all upset.
He says, Come on, this doesn't wash.
Tell us the truth.
But go ahead and it's what it what it says there is is um, it goes right here.
It says, break your campaign promises if you must, but don't insult our intelligence.
Then Richard Cohen, also in the Washington Post, an unpromising start.
Uh he writes in here, listen to this.
I have to read this to you.
In poll after poll and focus group after focus group, the so-called character issue came up.
It's folly to think that all has been forgotten or forgiven.
And he goes on here To chronicle how people believe what Bill Clinton says.
Words mean things.
That's my phrase.
Symbolism over substance, it's my phrase.
These guys, these liberals, Kinsley, Cohen, a bunch of them, the reason why they're doing this, you think there's media bias, and there is, they believed in him, folks.
These are idealists, these are utopians.
He was their savior.
He was a guy that was going to do what they thought needed to be done for the last 40 years.
He's the same old thing.
Only worse.
Because he didn't, he didn't tell.
I mean, he is he's breaking promises already.
I mean, I'm trying not to use the word that begins with an L. Got a break.
