Time Text
Welcome back, my friends.
It's the one and only Excellence and Broadcasting Network.
And one and only Rush Limboy, your host for life.
Firmly ensconced behind the golden EIB micro.
By the way, Brian, I know you sent this thing out to get it refurbished.
They find any major problems with it.
I didn't think so.
We sent the golden EIB microphone out to make sure it stays golden.
I did that last week when I was uh away.
We're back now.
800 282-2882 is the phone number.
If you want to be on the program, the uh email address rush at EIB net.com.
Uh, New Jersey.
This is from our buddies at WorldNet Daily.
A New Jersey College's Board of Trustees has called for an emergency meeting tonight to discuss how to handle a controversy surrounding an email by a professor suggesting that soldiers in Iraq should kill their superior officers.
As WorldNet Daily reported, the email by adjunct English instructor John Daly of Warren County Community College was a reply to freshman Rebecca Beach for her announcement of a campus program last Thursday featuring decorated Iraq war hero Lieutenant Colonel Scott Rutter.
Daly wrote real freedom will come when soldiers in Iraq turn their guns on their superiors.
And remember, folks, the best and brightest of all of us are teaching your skulls full of mush.
Your young little crumb crunchers in all these institutions of higher learning.
Professor Daly said Sunday he was worried he would be fired tonight, and he already had been told not to show up for three classes he was scheduled to teach today, according to Inside Hire Ed, an online news source, the instructor, said he stood by the email message, but it was being taken out of context.
His comment about soldiers turning their guns on superiors was meant in the most metaphoric sense, he explained.
He uh also said that because uh Rebecca Beach was never one of his students, he thought that she was a young Americas Foundation organizer and sent the message with that in mind.
Uh so Young America's Foundation is a bunch of conservative students, and of course this guy's a freak wacko leftist.
He said he would have used a different tone if he had known she was a freshman, although the content wouldn't have changed.
his email.
Daly said that he would ask his students to boycott the event and Also vowed to expose her right wing anti-people politics until groups like Rebecca's won't dare show their face on a college campus.
That's it, Professor.
That's it.
Show your guts.
Show your courage.
Here you have these young skulls full of mush.
Showing up as freshmen, and you're intimidated by them.
You don't even want them around.
Don't even want to take a chance at trying to change their minds.
You just don't think they should be in your presence.
The uh Young Americas Foundation, which came to uh Rebecca Beach's aid, said that besides organizing the event, Beach's offense was hanging up flyers, contrasting a number of people killed under communism to those liberated under President Reagan.
Beach responded to Daly's written tirade with a demand that Warren President William Austin institute seminars on free speech and sensitivity to teach intolerant faculty members to be respectful of a differing opinion.
The college has issued three statements since the controversy began, with support for Daly apparently declining with each one inside higher ed said.
So anyway, here you have an adjunct English instructor, suggesting in an email that real freedom in Iraq will come when soldiers in Iraq turn their guns on their superiors, claiming he was taken out of context, still backing up his statement and claiming these conservatives have no business being on his little junior college community college campus.
Big meeting tonight to uh determine his fate and uh and future.
Now, uh I don't know how many of you have heard the report that President Bush says um Daily Mirror.
Uh UK newspaper said that President Bush planned on bombing Al Jazeera, had plans drawn up to bomb Al Jazeera.
But nothing ever came of it.
Okay, I uh want to run a couple things by you here, folks.
Um stop what you're doing here and listen for just a second, because I want you to think about what would happen if an influential supporter of the terrorist leader, Abu Mousab al Zarkawi, made the following public pronouncement.
The insurgency was a mistake.
The plan for the insurgency was a disaster.
The lighter al Zakari would be wise to leave Iraq.
Can you imagine if Al Jazeera decided to air an influential supporter of Zarkawi making a statement saying the whole terrorist movement in Iraq's a mistake, the plan was a disaster, and the liar Al Zakhari would be wise to leave Iraq?
Imagine if Al Jazeera broadcast that statement across the Middle East and repeated it hour after hour, day after day.
What do you think?
Those statements would do to the morale of Al-Zarkawi's terrorists?
You think it'd inspire them?
Do you think it would demoralize them?
What do you think that statement would have?
What effect do you think it would have on rogue states that support Al Zarqawi?
What do you think would happen?
I'll bet you that there are plenty of people in Iraq who would love to go on Al Jazeera and make that kind of style Al Jazeera never put them on, but just imagine that they did.
And imagine that once they were on, they ran it every day, multiple times a day for six months straight.
What do you think the shape of the insurgency would be?
What effect would that statement have on the people of Iraq?
Wondering if we would succeed or the terrorists would succeed, and who they should cooperate with?
Would the Iraqis cooperate more with Alzar Kawi or Uncle Sam?
What effect do you think that statement would have on our allies, our sunshine allies?
Will we get less copper cooperation or would we get more?
Well, the answers here are obvious.
Those words would echo around the world and affect all the players, our troops in the field down to the United Nations Security Council.
Does anybody out there on any side of the political debate question one word of that?
Come on now, the insurgency would crumble if this were to happen.
In other words, if we could find the component to American leftists in Iraq and get them on Al Jazeera, if we could find the anti-war Muslims, the anti-war Iraqis, the anti-Zarkawi Muslims, and get them on Al Jazeera and start ripping Zarkawi as a liar, as a fraud.
As none of this is good.
He's killing all of us, he needs to leave the country.
We don't want any of this.
Can you imagine what the effect would be?
Well, that's exactly what has been happening in this country.
If you can see the damage an insurgent statement would make, can you also see that statements made from the other side our side by our friendly American Democrats and leftists might be having the same effect here?
The left in this country, the American left and Democrats and the weak need moderates are now rallying around a focus group line.
It is our patriotic duty to investigate what the president knew, and did he cherry pick intelligence?
I don't agree with their premise, but to make a point I will allow for a moment that it is their patriotic duty to challenge, demean, and distract the president just for the sake of it.
On the other hand, it is unpatriotic to discourage our fighting forces.
It's unpatriotic to encourage rogue nations.
It is unpatriotic to let our non performing allies off the hook, and it is unpatriotic to signal Iraqi citizens that we're getting ready to run.
So let's see now, using the left's own patriotism guide, their own patriotism handbook.
We add this up, it's one patriotic act for them and four unpatriotic acts for the rest of us.
And you have to wonder is the left playing for patriotism or they playing for politics?
Is the left willing to fight political wars but not willing to fight real wars?
Wars of their self interest but not wars of national interest?
Certainly looks that way to me.
They'll fight whatever war necessary to preserve themselves, but to preserve this country, they are no shows.
AWOL, anybody?
AWOL?
You damn right it's unpatriotic to discourage our fighting forces, Ms. Sheehan.
Congressman Mertha.
Damn right it is.
It's unpatriotic to encourage rogue nations to join up with Al-Zarkawi.
It is unpatriotic to let our non performing allies off the hook.
And it especially unpatriotic to signal Iraqi citizens that we're about to ready cut and run.
It's far from me to label anyone anything, but this is serious stuff.
I mean, I wish each of you would imagine a line.
One extreme patriotism, the other extreme treason.
In the middle of that line, of course, is the middle of the line.
But on the far end you got patriotism, and over there, the other end you've got treason.
On what side of the line would you place John Kerry, Ted Kennedy, and Barbara Boxer?
Don't tell me you'd place them on the patriotism side.
That's where they think they're, because they're redefining patriotism as having the guts to criticize a lying president who cooked up the intelligence that we all saw anyway.
On a scale of patriotism to treason, where would you place the New York Times?
On a scale of patriotism to treason, where would you place a lot of the mainstream media?
Where would you do it?
And just imagine if we had a John Kerry and a Ted Kennedy and a Barbara Boxer and a Nancy Pelosi and a John Mertha.
And a Howard Dean, and a Dick Durbin.
If we had all those people in Iraq saying about Zarkawi, what those people are saying about their own president in the United States.
What do you think the result would be over there?
What do you think would Al Jazeera ever do it?
Nope.
But what if they did?
Quick timeout, back after this.
Stay with us.
You're listening to Rush Limbaugh on the excellence in podcasting network.
Okay, let's go back to the phone.
It's been a while.
It's uh Jay in Atlantic City, where by the way, Jay, I'm hearing the gasoline prices in Atlantic City are a buck eighty-eight a gallon now.
Yeah, it's very good to have gas coming down now.
We must have built a lot of refineries.
I don't know what happened all of a sudden.
No, it's it's uh it's it's all a pressure on that guy at the oil companies that sets the gasoline price.
Uh they they think the heat was on.
They knew the people weren't falling for the gouging this time.
Okay.
Uh Russia, uh, I always had great respect for you and your abilities and all that, and always pushing the truth coming up, but I feel that I'm totally against your position on the Iraq war.
Um you've been saying that things aren't going that bad and all.
I feel we've lost this Iraq war from the beginning, and we're never going to get it back with the leadership that we have now.
Uh if you allow me to keep going, I'll point give you the point right to the point where you have taught me that.
All right, go right ahead.
Yeah, sure, go right ahead.
I need to break anyway.
My own points, uh the Iraq war.
Um we we didn't have enough troops when we get it went in there, and it's been proven that to our generals that kept saying that we needed more troops, and Bush shoved them out.
Um Wait a minute now.
Wait, wait, wait, but that's not that's Well, whatever.
They were retired.
No, no, no, wait.
No, I'm just that's not what I've heard.
No, wait, I'm not arguing with you.
I'm just telling you that Bush has always said that the generals want more troops are gonna get them.
I've never heard of the people.
I'm going to the beginning.
The generals he has there now are the generals that are shall we say the KA generals, as I would put them right now.
Not the generals that were there when he started.
Um, give me the names of the generals that were there who wanted more troops.
Okay, how about besides Shenzeki, how about if we talk with General Zinni, a Republican who wanted more troops and air wants more troops.
Here we go.
Shenesky's in the you're talking about left-wing hacks here.
Oh, General Zinny is a left-wing hack.
Okay, well, let's get away from that point.
Then you had Bremer who Well that was easy.
Let's let's go to the gen let's go to Bremer, who did the beef debatistization with the uh Iraqis in there, and didn't have enough troops to take control of the country after we did that.
We got rid of all their army, all their all their police, which were Sunnis at the time, which were Bathis, and we didn't have enough troops to take it over or control the situation.
So there was a loss right there again.
Well, but again, you you you want to take up arms of Saddam's cops.
Well, what I'm saying is we were lost from the very beginning.
Now, if you go to the present position, the present position is we only have what do we have there?
160,000 troops here right now.
Yeah, give or take 25 or 10.
Every time we chase these insurgents in and out of a town, right?
We chase them out.
We have to go put a fire out in another town in another area because pop them up out there like Jackson a box.
They take the area back over again.
Yes, you're right.
That's the biggest problem we're having over there.
We are going to win this war with the position that the Bush administration has put us in this right now.
We're basically in a Vietnam.
Because we can't win, so we're treading water there.
The soldiers are doing a fine job, but they can't do it without either enough troops or the position to win the war.
And you have taught me this from a long time, Rush.
You have said that we had to go into a country, or not we, anybody that thought that they were going to win a war had to go in and pummel that country, destroy all the infrastructure, and then dictate to those people what the terms were going to be.
You have said that for years.
Yet we didn't do that.
We allowed them to tear down their own.
Wait a second.
Now, wait a second.
I gotta step in here.
I have advocated doing that to enemy nations.
Iraq was not an enemy nation once we got rid of Saddam Hussein.
We we're not gonna go in there and totally destroy the country and rebuild it.
That was never the point.
We'd lose the people doing that.
Now look.
I will grant your overall point, which is, and I think this is I think i i if i some percentage of the numbers in the president's disapproval numbers come from people like you.
Uh and I'm I'm with you on part of this.
I don't think we have gone in with near enough force.
Uh I I think I think uh a lot of Americans look at this as okay, so it's Mark Zuck Zarkawi and Zawehiri and whoever else, we are the United States.
What is this nickel and dime business?
Let's go in and kick butt.
And while we're at it, let's clean Syria out, because we know that they're supplying a bunch of people.
And while we're at it, let's uh let's send a little message to Iran.
Now, for whatever reason we didn't do this, and I I think it's because we're attempting to hold the minds and hearts of the people in that region and not go in there and level the country as you suggest, because then it would fulfill this this this mistaken notion that we're the big bad evil United States.
I know there are a lot of people that are frustrated that we don't seem to be using the amount of force that we possess, that we're not using the power that we actually have.
Uh that there's a serious conflict, and let's treat it that way.
In fact, President McCain of the media, uh, this is in Mort Kondracki's piece, uh uh says that uh uh where is it?
Uh McCain is calling for more troops.
McCain, normally a hero of the media, myself included, Kondraki admits, advocated increasing U.S. troop strength by 10,000 in a Washington, D.C. speech on November 10th.
It got played on page 21 of the New York Times, page 16 of the Washington Post.
McCain, though, has it right.
We must stay in Iraq until the government there is a fully functioning security apparatus that can keep Zerkawi and his terrorists at bay and ultimately defeat them, he said in an American Enterprise Institute's speech.
Drawdowns must be based on conditions in country, not arbitrary deadlines rooted in our domestic politics.
Uh Kondraki writes that McCain, President McCain spelled out better than President Bush has the stakes involved in leaving Iraq prematurely.
So here we have Kondraki admitting that he is a McCain slave, uh, and uh talking about how the press gave top of the page one treatment to Mertha and his call for immediate troop withdrawals, yet when McCain demanded more troops, they buried the story.
So what what's what's surprising about that?
McCain needs to take this as a lesson.
I know McCain thinks his base is the media.
But if McCain strays from what the media wants, which he's gonna do now and then, they're not gonna give him the McCain treatment.
And if it comes down to McCain versus Hillary, do anybody know where the press is going to choose sides on that one.
Now, there's a also a companion story here that in reaching out to the Sunni Arab community, Iraqi leaders have called for a timetable for the withdrawal of U.S. led forces and said Iraq's opposition had a legitimate right of resistance.
Sunni leaders have been pressing the Shiite majority government to agree to a timetable for the withdrawal of all foreign troops.
The statement recognized that goal, but did not lay down a specific time, reflecting instead the government's stance that Iraqi security forces must be built up first.
What what what who whose policy does that sound like?
Doesn't that sound like President Bush's?
Sounds like the Iraqi policy is right on par with President Bush's, but just what Bush's policy has been all along.
So you've got you got people all over the ballpark on this.
McCain wants more troops.
The Democrats want to pull out and want us defeated.
People like you want more ammo, and I'm with you on that.
Back in a moment.
And we're back.
Remember, we've got a fourth hour today, folks.
And let me explain to you what these fourth hours are.
They are for the internet audience only via Rush Limbaugh.com.
You must be a subscriber to uh hear the fourth hour.
And a fourth hour, just what we call it.
There are no commercial breaks in a fourth hour.
And if it goes ten minutes, that's the fourth hour.
If it goes twenty minutes, that's the fourth.
However long we go, it's the fourth hour.
It doesn't mean it's a full hour.
I don't know what it's going to be.
And when I get tired and I'm through and I got nothing else to say, it's over.
And whenever that happens is when it happens.
Well, we are going to do one today because I promised two weeks ago that I would do one, and uh today is the day that I have chosen for it.
Washington Post reporter.
Bob Woodward dismissed claims that he should have revealed his role in the CIA leak case.
When he discussed the investigation on news interview shows, the Post's Ombudsman, Deborah Howell, wrote in Sunday's editions that Woodward erred by publicly commenting on the case on CNN's Larry King Alive and on National Public Radio without mentioning that a top Bush administration official had told him the name of a covert CIAO.
She was a covert!
How does this survive?
She wasn't covert.
If she was covert, there'd have been an indictment on it.
Who wrote this?
There's no byline on this AP.
They're starting to hide the authors now.
Woodward told uh Larry King on Larry King Alive last night.
Every time somebody appears on your show talking about the news or giving some sort of analysis, there are going to be things that they can't talk about.
Woodward again acknowledged he should have told his editor at the Post.
Well, you have some audio soundbites from last night's Larry King alive.
And uh let's just start order here.
King, first question you're referring to, Woodward's appearance on his show on October 27th of this year, uh, and the statement that he didn't have a bombshell says, Robert, what were you not telling us that night?
I was telling you the the exact truth that uh I did not have a bombshell or any story uh for the next uh day's paper.
Uh I did know that back uh you know over two years ago, uh at the end of a very long interview, substantive interview for my book, Plan of Attack, uh a source had when I asked about Joe Wilson, uh told me that Wilson's wife uh worked at the CIA as a WMD analyst.
Uh at that point and on your show, I didn't know what that meant at all, because it was such a casual offhand remark.
All right, now I happen to think Woodward has this pegged, folks.
I happen to think that this this whole Wood uh Wilson's wife business will just DC gossip.
I think it was passed around that way.
The point Woodward makes here is he asked there whoever his source is in the administration, and it's still a big DC parlor guessing game, uh, didn't volunteer it.
Woodward asked about it.
And it was it was returned, the it was the answer was supplied casual, offhand way.
Woodward didn't think he had a bombshell here.
That's why Woodward's always thought this investigation is a bit crazy because there's a lot of people knew it, and it was not that big a deal.
And but but what it's what this does is blows holes right through the mainstream media and the Democrats' theory that this was a conspiracy cooked up at the highest level of the offices of Mr. Evil, Vice President Cheney.
He of the black X on CNN.
By the way, if you missed this, CNN this morning tried to go in and recreate the X and they couldn't.
It was a computer glitch.
So essentially they apologized for the big black X over the face of Mr. Evil, Vice President Cheney.
I um I think Fox people ought to go get their tech guy, take a camera in their control room, show people what a switcher is, a video switcher, and just start flashing black X's all over program.
Flash a black X over Alan Colmes tonight on uh on Hannity and Combs, a couple liberal guests or whatever, and um just show how it's done.
I haven't seen him do it yet.
I hope they do it.
But uh they want I and I've I've made a little bet of a dollar with someone that they will do it.
So uh we'll see.
But the point is that there was no giant conspiracy.
This is what Woodward's point all along is there's no giant conspiracy.
He knew this before Libby told it to whoever.
King's uh next question.
Last week the post ombudsman Deborah Howell said, last week we found out that uh Woodward kept the kind of information from Downey the editor that is a deeply serious sin not to disclose to a boss.
That uh that can kind of get a good reporter in the doghouse for a long time.
Why didn't you tell him, Robert?
The significance of this is yet to be determined.
And uh what what's the good news in all of this is when it all comes out, and hopefully it will come out, people will see how casual and offhand this was.
Remember, the investigation and the allegations that people have printed about this story is that there's some vast conspiracy to slime Joe Wilson and his wife, really attack him in an ugly way that is outside of the boundaries of political hardball.
The evidence I had first hand, small piece of the puzzle I acknowledge, is that that was not the case.
Why didn't you come forward then?
When you were for two years you watched that be the focus.
We're gonna nail somebody we're gonna nail Bush.
We're gonna nail Cheney.
We're gonna get Rove.
We're still gonna get Rove, by the way.
They're gonna do whatever they have to do to get Rove.
They know Rove was behind whatever wasn't going on.
There was no conspiracy.
Bob, you knew this all along.
I guess it was the indictment of Libby uh that that you know caused Woodward's source, hey.
Hey, uh we gotta do something about this.
Because Bob, you knew it, you knew about it before the guy this has been indicted.
Uh Lynn King says, Well, when and why did you finally decide to disclose this to your editor?
The week of the indictment, I was working on something and learned another piece of this puzzle.
And I told Len Downey about it, and I told him about the source and what had been disclosed to me, and there was a sense before the indictment, well, this kind of interesting, but it's not clear what it means.
Then the day of the indictment, uh I read the in the charges against Libby and looked at uh the press conference by the special counsel, and he said the first disclosure of all of this was on June 23rd, 2003 by uh Scooter Libby, the Vice President's chief of staff to uh New York Times reporter Judy Miller.
I went, whoa, because I knew I'd learned about this uh in mid-June, a week, ten days before.
Yeah, very interesting, which raises some questions about the whole investigation.
See, I think also what this is showing here is that the uh independent council investigation totally bought into hook line and sinker, this whole story of a wrong CIA agent and her and her and her husband, uh Joe Wilson, and thought there's something you know terribly unjust that happened here, and that propelled the investigation in that direction.
And what Woodward's uh revelations here indicate that that was not what was going on here at all.
Uh it was just gossip.
That's why he's been saying for two years as much ado about nothing.
Woodward then continued with this.
So then I say something's up.
There's uh there's a piece uh that the special counsel does not have in all of this.
I then went into incredibly aggressive reporting mode and called the source.
Uh the beginning of the.
Well, stop the tape.
I went into incredibly aggressive reporting mode.
Is that like something we we we need, what was it?
Um super duper.
Huh?
No, no, no, no, no.
Somebody would have just super I I'm having a mental block on what it was.
Super Oh, uh uh uh what's his name, Spectre.
Uh we're gonna have some super uh precedence, super something or other.
What is incredibly aggressive reporting mode?
He got I guess there's different levels of reporting mode uh for reporters, and and Woodward went into a incredibly aggressive uh reporting mode.
All right, here's the rest of it.
Do you realize when we talked about this and exactly what was said?
And the source in this case at this moment, it's a very interesting moment in all of this, uh, said, I have to go to the prosecutor.
I have to go to the prosecutor.
I have to tell the truth.
And so I realized I was gonna be dragged into this, that I I was the catalyst, and then uh I asked the source, if you go to the prosecutor, am I released to testify?
And and the source told me yes.
And Kingman says, Well, uh, did your source indicate whether Mrs. Play was an undercover agent or just a desk analyst?
Specifically said uh that the source did that she was a WMD, weapons of mass destruction analyst.
Now, I've been covering the CIA for over three decades, and uh uh analysts except uh in fact I don't even know of a case.
Maybe there are cases, but they're not undercover.
Uh they are people who take other information and analyze it.
And uh if you were there at this moment in mid-June when this was said, uh there was no suggestion that it was sensitive, that it was secret.
Of course not.
Woodwards was the one that brought it up.
Uh the so you see what i it it's apparent here this is all much ado about nothing.
There has been an inertia created here.
And and I am I am just I don't know, I'm a little surprised that because the reputation of Patrick Fitzgerald is so uh uh great.
Uh but but to have been led down this this road here without you know veering off into any of the uh obvious other directions that that this goes.
I just it's it that surprises me.
But interestingly, here here you have uh Mrs. Plum, who is an analyst of WMD.
She recommends her husband to go to Niger to examine WMD.
I still think that the real truth of this is that these two clowns, Wilson and Wilson, Wilson and Plaim, cooked up this whole thing to try to undercut the whole war in Iraq, the war on terror, and the Bush administration, because this Wilson guy is a left-wing activist.
Still think that's what this is all about, and they've successfully turned this around and acting like they're the biggest hurt and harmed victims in the history of international intrigue, and it's all a big joke.
And that's the sum total of Woodward's comments, even though he doesn't use those doesn't use those exact words.
I gotta run a quick time out, much more ahead after this.
All right, we go back to the phones now.
Uh Susanville, California, this is Cliff Cliff, nice to have you on the program and welcome.
Thank you, sir.
Twenty-year log truck and ditto's to you.
Well, I appreciate that.
I'd like to answer uh your little question in regards to uh Bill and Hillary's little pull-out disagreement.
Yeah, uh uh just to rephrase this.
Uh Bill thinks, well, in Dubai, Bill said we shouldn't have gone to Iraq we're gonna pull out of there.
Hillary says, no, we shouldn't pull out of there.
And Bill came back to New York on Sunday after being in Dubai last Wednesday, said maybe we should stay there.
So there's a disagreement here over the pull-out.
Now my question is, when was the last time there was a disagreement over pull out and what happened?
Well, I imagine Bill uh won the conversation or the circumstance, so to speak, and I would say the end result was Chelsea.
Oh.
I wasn't even thinking of that.
I was thinking the Paula Jones case.
I uh uh uh you know Hill Hillary's out there uh uh you know, Bill he didn't want any part of that Paul.
He wanted to pull out of that as fast as he could.
Hillary says, no, we're gonna humiliate this woman.
She's trailer parked trash, and I'm gonna work you know, Hillary insisted that that case proceed.
Uh and uh, you know, Hillary won the won the pull-out battle.
I haven't even thought about what oh, geez.
Well, perhaps it was a weak moment.
Well uh who on whose part?
Uh either, because uh would imagine if uh Hillary was gonna follow suit with her mantra, it should have been an occasion for AI, I imagine.
Uh well, now you're giving me pause for uh thought here.
Um let me ask you something there, Cliff.
You're you're a trucker, right?
Yes, sir.
So you uh uh I don't know, do you use a computer when you're at home?
Of course.
You are you a subscriber to my website?
Unfortunately, uh to uh to pay uh the considerable taxes that owner operators uh have to uh have to contribute or force contribute.
Yes.
Uh I don't have time to uh deal with that.
But I do listen to you uh several times a day.
Yeah.
Well, I'll tell you what I'm gonna do.
Uh uh since it's not a matter of money and it's only a time thing with you.
I'm gonna go ahead and make you a complimentary member of Rush 24-7 because what you will be able to do uh when you're able to get to the computer is download all of these programs on a podcast.
If you get an MP3 player like an iPod, you can download all of these things.
It'll download daily automatically, uh, and then you can you can transfer them to your uh iPod or MP3 player and take them with you in the truck and listen to them bam bam flam flam right one right after another.
Thank you, sir.
Yeah, I'm gonna do that, so you hang on here, because that's it that that I mean I hadn't even considered the answer you gave.
Uh uh on that.
So let me uh uh it's clear clever.
Very clever.
Well uh people say that truck drivers have a lot of time to think about things, and you have proven it.

Uh Ray in Canada.
Ray, I'm glad you called, glad you waited.
Welcome to the program.
Hey, hello.
Anybody there?
Testing one two three.
Ray.
He's gone.
Ray Ray split the scene.
Ray was gonna say if we win in Iraq, the Democrats will claim credit, citing their original votes.
Oh, I don't doubt that they'll try.
But they're not gonna get away with it.
They are invested in defeat.
There is no other political position they can take now, based on uh on all that they're doing.
Quickly, Joe in Orange County in California.
Hello, sir.
Hey, Rosh, an honor to speak with you, sir.
I want to get this out very quickly.
I want everybody, I I know you know this uh because you're you've been paying attention, but all the liberals that listen to your program that think that we've forgotten when they say that Saddam Hussein's Iraq had nothing to do with terrorism.
We did not forget that in the opening days of the war we bombed not one, but two terrorist camps, Al Ansar Islam.
They were developing uh rising, and we did not forget that Saddam Hussein was intimately involved, not with Al Qaeda, but with terrorism.
It's not called the war on Al Qaeda, folks.
It's called the War.
You know, this is this is this is another myth that there's no link between Al Qaeda and Saddam.
There's a clear link, and it goes back to the nineties.
Uh there's no clear link from uh uh Saddam to 9-11, no direct link, but they're they're all kinds of ties.
What was Salman Pack was the uh was that tr terrorist playground where they had an you know 727 fuselage and train tracks there that's where terrorists would go to uh get trained on hijacking airplanes, and it was provided by uh Saddam.
Uh quick timeout, we'll be back in just a second.
Fourth hours right around the corner too, so don't go anywhere if you are tuned in at rushlinball.com.
Stay with us.
You might have just heard the commercial for that razor phone from uh Comp USA at Motor.
I got it I got it hooked up yesterday.
It's got Bluetooth in it.
I transferred all of my phone numbers on the computer.
This thing is ju.
It's the most amazing phone I've ever seen in hand.
It's just as thin as it can be.
I hate phones.
And I love this phone, the Motorola Razor at Comp USA.
Stand by on the internet.
