Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 podcast.
Well, you get the strangest things in the mail these days.
I mean, these things just come in.
You have no idea what it is.
And then somebody says, oh, yeah, I remember that.
I will explain this in due course as the program unfolds.
It's a uniquely shaped piece of candy that we got here today, folks.
It comes in both white chocolate and dark chocolate, I'm told.
Greetings.
The Rush Limbaugh program, the EIB network, underway.
Another three hours of stellar broadcast excellence hosted by me, America's anchorman, El Rushball.
The telephone number, if you want to be on the program today, 800-282-2882, the EIB, the email address, rush at EIBnet.com.
And just a couple of housekeeping things.
Just want to continue to remind all of you military personnel and your families to take advantage of the opportunity here to receive a complimentary one-year subscription to RushLimbaugh.com and our newsletter by registering at rushlimbaugh.com.
Just go there and register as a military fan.
We just have to build a valid database.
It's not complicated, but we need you to do this so that you can be matched up with donors who want to show you how much they love and support what you're doing in defense of freedom in this country.
And the mechanism for this is just as easy as it can be.
You just go to the homepage at rushlimbaugh.com.
It's a small little form to fill out, nothing like you'd have to fill out for the government.
And as soon as we qualify you, we will match you up with a donor.
And the Adopt a Soldier program is a non-profit enterprise.
In fact, I'm getting emails.
Rush, why are you being so defensive about the fact that you might make a profit?
I thought you're a big-time capitalist.
I am a big-time capitalist.
We make our profit.
Don't worry about that.
But this was not a scheme, as it was portrayed by some, to profit on the backs of the U.S. military.
It was an idea from a caller that basically has at its root a way for the audience here, the American people, to show their support for our troops in Iraq, Afghanistan, and all over the world.
So if you're a member of the military, don't be bashful about signing up here.
There are thousands of Americans that want to donate this to you as a show of support, love, and affection for all that you do.
The Adopt a Soldier program.
Second thing, you know, it's amazing.
We put out a press statement announcing that we're going video on our podcasts on December 12th.
And I read the stories about it today.
It's just amazing how it's not that they get it wrong.
It's that they don't understand what they're talking about.
In the first place, 24-7 is not a club, but I see so many stories.
The Rush Club, the Rush 24-7 club.
Have I ever called this a club?
It's not a club, and it says that if you join the club for $7, you will get – there's a whole different pricing structure, varied pricing structure.
You can join it by the month.
I mean, you can become a subscriber by the month, or you can do it by the year, or two years, or in a variety of things.
Also, what we're making available is not a snippet of the program.
I was expressly clear what is going to be made available.
We are going to, at the end of this program, every program, I record the morning update that runs on our 600-plus eager affiliates the next day, usually early in the morning a couple of times.
What we're going to do is dittocam me recording the updates.
They are 90 seconds.
They are not 60 seconds.
I don't know where this 60-second thing came from, but as I read the stories today, I got the impression that they're just going to take a 60-second snippet of the program and put it on an iPod podcast, sit it down there to video people.
It's a specific feature, and it's the morning update.
It will be recorded after the program.
It'll be set along with that day's podcast.
It is El Freebo.
It will not cost anything additional to current subscribers.
Well, new subscribers either.
I mean, it's a value-added service.
The next thing I read is that we have gotten into the video advertising business, that the reason we're doing this is to advertise the program.
What a crock.
You know, it's just, it is amazing to watch how things get reported.
And we were very clear in all of our press releases and statements about what this is going to be.
This is not an advertisement for the program.
They're portraying this as we are advertising.
This is video advertising.
And some of these people that are reporting on this are looking at this as a new trend on the portability of TV advertising.
This is not that at all.
This is value added for existing subscriber club members here at Rush 24-7.
And I'm going to tell you something else.
It all starts on December 12th, by the way.
You don't have to do anything if you're a subscriber.
It'll just come to you starting on December 12th.
But we've got bigger plans than this.
We're reporting this as, and we are trendsetters.
We're on the cutting edge.
And one of the great things about this is that this audience is one of the most highly advanced technological audiences in all of radio.
You can tell that by the number of podcasts that we distribute.
You realize that we distribute over a million hours of podcasts a week.
By the time you add up all of the members and all the hours and all the podcasts that go out, it's huge out there.
And of course, it's free.
Now, we have additional plans for this video business, folks.
I mean, you roll this stuff out on stage.
I'm not going to tell you what it is.
But this 90-second snippet, as they're saying, is just our first phase.
We're constantly growing.
We're constantly looking for ways to service and satisfy our audience here.
I mean, I would love to tell you that we would love to grow a whole bunch of how much more growth is there?
I mean, there is potential for growth.
Don't misunderstand.
But at this level, as important as that is maintaining the level of service that meets and hopefully surpasses the expectations of the existing audience as well.
So I wanted to get those two things.
It's not a 60-second snippet of the program.
It's going to be the morning update.
It runs 90 seconds, and it'll be a video podcast starting on December 12th.
And if you're a current subscriber, you won't have to do anything.
It'll just show up.
You might have to go out and get a video player in order to see it.
But other than that, you won't have to do anything as a subscriber.
All right.
There are things in the news out there.
Mr. Sterling, would you bring that piece of candy in here?
Grab audio soundbite number two, if you would, Mr. Broadcast Engineer.
I want to go back to August 22nd of this year because I got an email from Cookie in New York yesterday who said, you won't believe what you just got in the mail.
And I said, try me.
So she said, in fact, I ought to show this on the Ditto camera.
Oh, yes.
All right.
Well, turn the Ditto cam on, Brian.
Let's go ahead and you really think I ought to do this?
Oh, yeah.
Yes.
You really?
Oh, yeah.
Well, I guess I guess I can do it.
Let me see what's going on.
Okay.
Folks, let me take a brief time out here because what I'm going to do here is going to take a little bit longer than what I have.
Also, we've got big news out there.
The president's going to make a speech tomorrow at the U.S. Naval Academy on Iraq.
And you would not believe the pre-coverage of this speech in different media outlets.
Some guy named Fred Kaplan at slate.com is all worried about this, the way it's going to be received.
There are others, Los Angeles Times.
Basically, it's this.
The media is prepared to say that Bush is going to admit defeat and announce a pullout of troops from Iraq, is going to announce the timetable.
And I'm going to have to set everybody straight on this, but that's how they're going to spend.
In fact, they're already spinning it before he's even given the speech.
That is Tamartha Naval Academy.
We'll have that plus this other little thing.
I don't know if you saw this or not, but some of you women out there are causing some problems within the medical community.
It seems that the female derier, female backside has been swelling, shall always be expanding.
And current hypodermic needles are too short to reach the buttocks muscle when doctors have to inject it in there for any kind of medication.
And so they're going to have to go back and retool and get longer needles.
This because the American female butt is just, it's getting too big.
In fact, many American men could swear to.
A quick timeout back after this.
Don't go over.
You're listening to Rush Limbaugh on the Excellence in Podcasting Network.
Oh, yeah, I love this Patapan.
Mannheim Steamroller, we are in full Christmas season mode here as far as the bumper music is concerned.
Rush Limbaugh, the EIB Network Commerce Department, said that sales of new single-family homes shot up by 13% last month.
That's the biggest one-month gain in more than 12 years.
The increase pushed sales to an all-time high.
Thought we're going to be having a housing bubble.
Everything is going to fall apart out there.
Gasoline prices are down.
Home sales are up.
And it all means that Democrats are still stuck in doom and gloom.
All right.
I want to go back to August 22nd on this program.
I'm going to play a clip of me from this program.
I'm going to set this up this way.
I got an email from Kathleen in New York said, you won't believe what you got in the mail today.
I said, well, try me.
She told me what it was and said, there's also a little card.
They're thanking you for helping them generate almost $1,000 in sales on this.
I don't remember this.
She said, well, I'll go back to the archives and I'll dig up what you said about it.
So she sent it to me.
And you know how we often say, folks, that if any discussion of the human anatomy offends you or if your children are listening and you think it might be something unsuitable for them, we give you plenty of time to do something else.
We don't just throw it at you.
We don't just shock you with this stuff.
So I'm going to count down from five.
And if after I finish the countdown, you're still here, then you have no reason to complain.
If you call somebody, complain, they're going to ignore you because you have been warned.
So here we go.
Five, four, three, two, one.
All right.
If you're still around, you're on your own here.
And you listen in the future 10 minutes or so or five at your own risk.
Here is the clip from August 22 of this year.
Boise State University Women's Center distributes vagina-shaped candy.
Says candy is a playful reminder that women should not be ashamed of their bodies.
Some guy named Jeff Ray of KBC ITV filed a report.
They might taste good, but some BSU students think the vagina-shaped white chocolate candy that the school's women's center is distributing is in poor taste.
That's almost to the point of being degrading to a woman's body, in my opinion, says business student Vicki Johnson.
Representatives from the Women's Center distributed the candy this week during a meeting for freshman honors students.
But the center has actually been distributing the candy for six years now, and during that time, the center says it's received plenty of criticism.
Their interim coordinator, Autumn Haynes, thinks that criticism is okay because it gets people talking.
We want to dispel the myth that it's not okay to talk about down there.
How TV news has changed.
Folks, the limits are gone.
Now they're passing out vagina-shaped white chocolate candy up at the Boise State University Women's Center.
And the coordinator there thinks, eh, this is cool.
We want to dispel the myth that it's not okay to talk about down there.
Many times young girls, particularly in our society, are raised with the belief that they have to fit a certain kind of body type and it's not okay to feel comfortable about their sexuality.
And our mission is really to dispel that myth so that women can feel comfortable about their body.
So we're passing out vagina-shaped white chocolate.
The center says it distributes the candy to promote the annual production of a play called The Vagina Monologues.
It's based on the stories of hundreds of women and Bill is giving an honest account of their lives.
The center says ticket revenue pays for the candy and no taxpayer funds or student fees.
Well, I guess that makes it okay.
Other students say they're not offended by the candy, but I wouldn't eat one, says Jennifer Gilmore.
They're just trying to get attention more than anything.
That's what I honestly think about it all.
Get publicity, said Tad Dunovan.
On that point, the women's center would probably agree.
They want publicity for their message, a message about women's sexuality delivered without any sugar coating.
All right, so that's what I didn't remember discussing back on August 22nd.
Well, they sent me a sample, and now they've expanded beyond white chocolate.
They've gone to dark chocolate, and they sent a card here from this outfit with warmest appreciation.
By mentioning the chocolate vaginas on your show, we were able to raise $845 in sales for the Louisiana Coalition Against Domestic Violence.
In appreciation, we've enclosed one of the fabled vaginas for you.
Thank you so much, the Organization for Gender Equality and Education.
OG.
O-G-E-E is the acronym 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 signatures on the card.
There's the card for you ditto cammers.
And there is the note in the signature.
And this, ladies and gentlemen, now, this is not going to be very, I mean, this is obviously, I'm not going to zoom in on this thing.
But I'm going to show you on the DittoCam the chocolate vagina here that they sent.
Some of you, now, I'm sure that those of you high school students who are listening, you won't need the close-up since you are shown this every day in sex education class.
Some of you might have to use your imagination other than the high school student.
But here it is.
Let me straighten it out there.
That's.
And I'm not going to, I even thought about taking it out of the wrapper because the wrapper causes a shine and gets, there's a better, there's a better.
So this arrived in the inter-office courier pack today, and I was literally stunned.
This is actually a real thing.
And so I did.
When it came in, I walked in there and I showed this to Brian and Dawn.
Snerdley was in his office.
And I said, you know what?
I'm just going to leave this here on the counter where Snerdley sits.
I'm going to see if he notices it, see if he recognizes it.
We all knew he'd zero in on it.
And he did.
He did it right off the top.
And what I was hoping for is that he wouldn't figure out what it was.
What is this?
Maybe it's a football.
I should have turned it the other way around.
Speaking of football, let's get this.
I knew this is going to happen.
Let me go to line five.
This is Rod in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Welcome, sir.
Great to have you on the EIB Network.
Hello, Rush.
Former Vietnam vet ditto see you, buddy.
I just had to call you.
I'll tell you, I don't know what all this doom and gloom is about.
I beat Cancer.
I came back from Vietnam after being wounded twice.
Life is fabulous out here.
But I just had to call and tell you, gold coats.
They're 11-0.
Yeah, see, I knew I was going to get this from the Colts fans out there.
There's no stopping these guys when they don't want to be stopped.
There's literally no stopping them.
They're a proficient offense.
Their defense is much improved.
And the Steelers look like the actually, I was going to say, they looked like the plastic curtain defense last night.
The defense was not that bad, all things considered, but they don't have an offensive line anymore.
Steelers just don't have a can't run the ball, and that's key to them.
But yeah, this has been a long time coming for the Colts.
I mean, they've been going through the regular season fine and losing in the postseason, but they've played together for a long time.
They've remained remarkably injury-free this year.
And I think it was a fun game to watch last night.
The intensity of this game last night.
You could feel it.
Did you watch it, Brian?
You could feel it through the television.
It was a great Monday night game.
And up until, I think the Steelers were in it up until the midway point of the third quarter.
And then the offense just could not get anything done.
Couldn't run the ball, couldn't take time off the clock, couldn't go downfield.
The Colts have a great team.
There's no question about it.
But I'll tell you what, Colts fans, and I'm not trying to throw poor cold water.
I'm telling you as a friend, because I'm a Steelers fan.
And last year, the Steelers only lost one game.
And it didn't mean a thing once they got to the playoffs.
And they played at home.
They lost to the Patriots, as the Colts have done each of the past two years in the postseason.
The postseason is a whole totally different animal.
All right, I've got to take a break here at the bottom of the hour.
We'll come back.
I've got a lot of phone calls I want to get to.
We got audio sound bites from today and yesterday.
I didn't get to any of them from yesterday.
But I do want to talk about Duke Cunningham.
Terrell Owens has a new advocate, and it is Arlen Specter.
Arlen Specter of the United States, too busy to handle the hearings for Supreme Court nominee Sam Alito, but he can sit around worrying about the future of Terrell Owens of the Philadelphia Eagles plus the Bush speech tomorrow from Annapolis on Iraq, all coming up right after this.
Yes.
America's anchorman serving humanity.
Utilizing talent on loan from God.
800-282-2882.
Email address, rush at EIBnet.com.
I just got a couple emails after showing the chocolate vagina, which is a fundraising device, by the way, at Boise State University.
Showed it on the ditto camera.
A guy said, you're holding it upside down.
I know because I've seen a couple.
It's the guy says you didn't have to use your cigar to point that out.
I got thoughts of Bill Clinton and Monica going on.
That was the idea.
And somebody said, do they sell Tootsie rolls or chocolate-covered bananas too?
And I said, I don't know, and that's all I'm going to say about it.
Done deal, folks.
I just had to show you, I didn't remember it when I saw it today.
I still don't believe this.
I can understand some people being upset about it up on the campus at Boise State.
Former National Security Advisor Sandy Burgler pleaded guilty today to reckless driving after an officer clocked him at 88 miles an hour in a 55 mile an hour zone.
A judge fined him $250.
Burglar did not speak during his brief appearance before Judge Richard Haran in Fairfax County General District Court.
His lawyer entered the guilty plea on his behalf.
So this is typical of the Democrats.
Their culture of speeding and document destruction continues here.
You know, I think I have to laugh, folks, because I'm listening to the Democrats go on and on and on.
We had Randy Cunningham admit that he had taken $2.4 million in bribes.
He resigned from Congress.
He said he can't change what he did, but he can atone for it.
And of course, the Democrats are out there and they're all over the place saying, see, see, Republican culture of corruption, culture of corruption.
And, you know, it shows you how shallow these people are.
What about, did we, when Ray Nagan and Kathleen Blanco totally botched everything about dealing with the oncoming Hurricane Katrina, did anybody run around and say on our side, the whole Democratic Party is a culture of corruption and incompetence?
Oh, yeah, I have been saying that for a long time.
Well, at least the incompetent part.
But I'm talking about the technique, basically.
James Trafficant was convicted.
We didn't accuse all Democrats of being like Traffikant.
Bob Torricelli for crying out loud.
If you want to talk about a culture of corruption, Bob Torricelli, cookie, go back to the archives and get the couple sound bites we have of that they're funny as they can be.
And if you haven't heard them, you've got to hear these.
The things that the illegal gifts that Torricelli took and then his denial of it is just tremendous.
You know, acting like Duke Cunningham is the first here to be involved in anything like this.
Don't forget Bob Torricelli.
How about Bill Clinton and all those indictments?
And what we did then, we attacked the Democrats for excusing all this stuff.
They excused Torricelli.
They excused Trafficant.
They excused Clinton.
But we didn't accuse the Democrats of being all like that when one of them were nabbed or was nabbed in the process.
But the bottom line to all this is, folks, that they are losing.
We had this poll that we cited yesterday that was in Sunday's Washington Post.
Their big effort about pre-war intelligence is backfiring.
70% of the American people, 55% of Democrats think that it's nothing but a political ploy, and they think that it is demoralizing to the troops to constantly criticize the effort.
The public views it as a political ploy that hurts the troops.
It's backfiring on these people.
I have maintained, I don't know how long, when you people have been up and down and sort of in the dumps about this, I have maintained that all of this behavior is going to backfire on them.
When's the last time you heard a Democrat other than Joe Lieberman have anything positive to say about anything?
Not only do they not have an agenda, they don't have anything positive to say about anything.
Everything they come up with is negative, doom and gloom.
It is amazing.
It's why I've always asked people, what in the world must it be like to get up every day as a liberal and face the world as they see it?
There's never any joy.
They are joyless, angry, bitter people, and they take it out on everybody else, and they try to make everybody else as bitter and joyless and angry as they are.
You can listen to when liberals call this program.
The one thing you can tell, the one thing you can notice, regardless whatever it is they're calling about or what they say, there's no joy.
They don't get happy at the holidays time.
They don't get happy at Christmas time.
They're not happy when other people are happy.
That's not fair because they're not happy.
Everything about them is utterly negative.
Doom and gloom morning to night.
They even dream nightmares.
They don't even have pleasant dreams.
They don't even say sweet dreams to each other because they don't know what it is.
Don't want to experience them.
It's like if they say something positive, they've gone off message.
If they come up with an agenda, they worry they've gone off message.
It's got to be constant negative pounding.
So you take a guy like Duke Cunningham, who admittedly did some things here that are horrible, they're bad, and he's admitted it and paid the price.
But he's a Vietnam flying ace at the same time.
He was a Vietnam War hero.
There are good parts about him, and he's made a mistake.
Democrats want to take the bad part of Duke Cunningham, the mistake that he made, and try and tar and feather all Republicans with it.
I'm just going to tell you, folks, it isn't going to work.
You can get upset about it, and you can think, oh my God, wish 100 Republicans and fight back.
Have faith in your fellow people, your fellow citizens.
This stuff is not permeating.
It's not creating doom and gloom among the American people.
That's what they want to happen, but it isn't happening.
I mean, these are hateful people.
They're not even likable.
Any liberal on television, any media person, you don't attach the word likable to them because they're so bitter.
Their minds are so twisted with rage that you don't find anything likable or even humorous about them.
It's the 1960s generation.
As we've said repeatedly, they're out of touch with the current generation.
Current generation of Americans far more patriotic than the 60s generation ever thought of being.
In fact, they're so out of touch when they've had to redefine patriotism as being nothing but anti-American, anti-Bush, and constantly dissenting.
That to them is the new definition of patriotism.
They're out of touch with the greatest generation.
They have the slightest clue about the greatest generation.
This dinner that I had Saturday night, a bunch of people my age, anywhere from 48 to 54.
And I forget the comment.
One of the guys made a comment about how young he feels, even though he's approaching 50.
He's not worried about approaching 50 or becoming 50 at all.
And I, you know, that just cued me up.
I said, well, I have a theory about that.
And of course, when I speak, the table goes silent.
Happens every time it's tried.
I said, I got a theory about that.
And you've heard me say it, and I went through it.
I said, you know why you feel so young?
It's because you haven't had to grow up yet, unless you want to.
Take a look at your parents and grandparents, all of our parents and grandparents.
Look what they had to face.
They had to face the Great Depression.
Then they had to face World War II, and that was a genuine World War.
And then here came the Korean War.
Then here came Khrushchev over to the United Nations pounding his shoe, telling everybody he's going to bury their children.
I mean, they had to grow up real fast.
They had to learn very early in life, probably in their teenage years, that there were things a lot larger than themselves.
Their children, you and I, I said to the guy, we've had to go out and invent our psychoses.
We've had to go out and invent things like ADD.
We've had to go out and invent all of these post-traumatic stress disorder things to make us think our lives are tough.
We've had to go out and literally create a bunch of stressful activity because compared to our parents and grandparents and the sacrifices they made for us, we have had a life of Easy Street.
We have had a life where we can be totally focused on ourselves.
What's good for me?
What's important to me?
What do I want?
How can I get it?
When can I get it?
What do I not want to do?
What do I not want to have to do?
Who can I tell to go to hell when they tell me I have to do it because I don't want to do it?
Our parents and grandparents didn't have that.
Value system number one, they didn't have the opportunity either.
There wasn't, they didn't have the choice.
But aside from the Vietnam War, we have not had a major armed conflict.
This is our first one, and even it bears no resemblance to what was going on in World War II.
This is such an amazing country while 19 and 20-year-olds are being shot at and they're sweating their lives away over in the deserts of Baghdad.
19 and 20 year olds are in nightclubs stoking up on whatever the fuel of the night is, hoping they can hook up and score without the slightest bit of interest that there are other 19 and 20 year olds stationed all over the world trying to save their lives and give them the freedom to go out and pursue a hedonistic life.
I'm not being critical of anybody.
I'm simply giving you the details.
And this is how it's greatly different today than it was, say, back in the days of the greatest generation.
These kinds of things.
Go back and look at the movies made during that era.
They were all pro-America.
They were pro-military.
Go look at the movies about World War II.
I saw a thing on Drudge yesterday.
Hollywood's coming up with a whole bunch of movies, television shows, about the end of America.
And advertisers are all excited about it because they think it's finally some creativity coming out of Hollywood.
Yeah, so we're going to do, we're going to have TV shows, mini-series or whatever, on life in America after it's destroyed, meaning after it's no longer a world superpower.
You didn't find that back then.
You didn't find these kind of things.
You didn't find dueling definitions of patriotism.
You didn't have people like Ramsey Clark flying over to Nuremberg to represent the Nazis who were on trial.
It didn't have these kinds of things.
And this is, we have these disparities because we have so much prosperity today that so many people have so much time on their hands that they have to go out and invent things to do.
You ever wondered why previous generations didn't have gyms and didn't have workout rooms and didn't have health clubs?
It's because their lives kept them in shape.
Other than the fat corporate executives, and we all know who they were, they never exercised.
But of course, back then, being fat was a sign of status.
It meant you were well off.
But bottom line, folks, is that we have so much prosperity and so much freedom.
We have so much opportunity in this country that a large portion of the population doesn't even need to know or care what the other portion of the population is doing to secure its freedom and prosperity.
Doesn't have to even, doesn't have to care, doesn't have to support it.
It's going to happen anyway.
And so if you're 48, 49, you're approaching 50, and you think back when your parents were 40, you think, my God, they seemed old and set in their ways.
And they were.
By the time our parents were 40 years old, their lives, their die was cast.
They were in the job they were going to have the rest of their lives.
They were in the career.
They were in the house they were going to be in.
They no more could dream about the prosperity we have today.
My father wouldn't believe my life.
He would not believe it.
Would not believe it possible.
For one reason, because I didn't go to college.
To him, coming out of the Great Depression, if you didn't go to college, you didn't have a prayer.
He would not be able to understand it.
So, this current climate of liberals, basically a bunch of spoiled, rotten, fat cat kids from the 60s who grew up being free enough to have a total focus on me, And they have so much time on their hands that they're free to be miserable and mean-spirited and extreme, dour, never positive, without joy.
And one of the reasons is they've got too much time on their hands.
They think too much about themselves.
They are so self-focused and they analyze themselves and their feelings so constantly that they never have time to go out and live a life that would give them any satisfaction actually accomplishing anything.
And so they don't understand why they're so unhappy.
They don't understand why they're so miserable.
It's got to be the people who aren't's fault.
If you're not miserable, if you're feeling good, if you're feeling positive, if you're optimistic, if you believe in the country, all the things they don't, and you're happy, then you're the reason they're unhappy and they got to come after you.
Well, that's who these people are.
I'm telling you that they can go after all the Republicans after Duke Cunningham's mess.
They can try to create this so-called culture of corruption among the Republicans.
They can demoralize the troops, but it's going to be perceived by average ordinary Americans who tune in now and then and hear it just as any other average American would hear it.
It's nothing but constant whining, constant negativism, constant doom and gloom, and nobody wants to hear that all the time.
It is not inspiring.
It is not motivating.
You don't build movements the way the liberals are talking and sounding.
You don't do it without sounding cheerful and joyful.
You don't do it without having some optimism.
You cannot take a country which leads the world in freedom and prosperity and opportunity and try to convince the people of this country that they should be miserable, unhappy, and full of doom and gloom with no hope for the future so that you'll put these liberals in charge.
You tell me that makes sense?
It doesn't make sense.
They've got their eyes on 06 and 08.
They're not worried a bit.
I can't tell you how the Democrats still can't tell you what they stand for.
I still can't tell you what they're optimistic about.
I still can't remember one thing they've ever said recently they're for.
Like I've been telling them what you did.
Democrats need to come into clause that's a be honest about.
You want to raise taxes.
You want as many abortions as possible.
You want the U.S. military to fail.
You want the United States not to be a superpower.
You believe that we are the problem in the world.
Admit this stuff instead of trying to hide behind this imaginary culture of corruption you're trying to create about Republicans.
Quick timeout.
Back in just a second.
You want to talk about a culture of corruption?
Lest we forget Congressman William Jefferson, Democrat, Louisiana.
Have we forgotten about him?
Let's go back to Thursday, August 4th.
The Washington Post FBI agents raided the Washington and New Orleans homes of Representative William Jefferson, Democrat, Louisiana, yesterday as part of an ongoing public corruption probe.
Agents conducted early morning raids at the home of Congressman William Jefferson, Democrat, Louisiana, in the 1300 block of F Street, Northeast Washington, and the 1900 block of Marengo Street in New Orleans.
He was supposedly involved, maybe involved in some shyster cell phone deal with some African tycoon.
Congressman William Jefferson, Democrat, Louisiana.
New evidence is emerging that top Democrat on the Senate committee currently investigating Jack Abramoff got political money arranged by Abramoff back in 2002, shortly after the lawmaker took action favorable to Abramoff's tribal clients.
This is helmet head Byron Dorgan, a Democrat.
Now, he's denying the story today, but, you know, it's everybody screams about these Republicans caught up in corruption.
The Democrats do.
But whenever it's a Democrat, whenever it's a Democrat, you never hear about a culture of corruption.
You may hear the media talk about, they all do it.
They all do it.
Clinton just happened to get caught, but they all do it.
So, but I'm just telling you folks, this stuff isn't going to, it doesn't have any sticking power or staying power in terms of the Democrats.
It's because it's just more negativism.
And I guarantee you that poll on Sunday in the Washington Post, they are turning people off with all of this, and they have been for the longest time.
It's no more than another Wellstone Memorial, and you know how that went for them.
We'll be back.
Stay with us.
Valerie Plam.
I don't know if you heard this.
Valerie Plam's leaving the CIA.
We're all in tears about that.
She's going to become a full-time mom and raise her five-year-old twins, which is a hell of a statement for For feminism, don't you think?
