Time Text
Okay, we're gonna start uh the we'll resume the soundlight roster with number 14, go in order from there.
And greetings to you, thrill seekers, music lovers, conversationalists, all across.
The amazing and wonderful fruited playing Rush Limbaugh, the EIB network.
America's Anchorman emitting vocal vibrations, rhetoric, and residence.
Uh coast to coast at 800-282-2882.
All right, the Washington Post and much of the Inside the Beltway drive by media will not let go of George Allen and his macaca comment.
But not much at all is being made of the uh person that worked for Representative Benjamin Cardin that he had to fire.
A campaign staffer who posted racially charged comments against his opponent, Michael Steele.
Now I have the AP version of this story, which ran two days ago on September 16th.
This story never once identifies Congressman Ben Cardin as a Democrat.
Um here are the stories.
This staffers that get fired.
The staffer's blog includes references to Oreo cookies.
Cardin's opponent, Republican Lieutenant Governor Michael Steele, who is black, has said people threw Oreos at him during a 2002 debate as a slight directed at his race and political views.
In a statement, Cardin, who is white, also condemned comments written by the female staffer on her blog that he considered derogatory to Jews.
I am deeply offended and disgusted by the blog's racial and anti-Semitic overtone, said Cardin.
The staff person responsible was promptly dismissed and will have nothing to do with my campaign.
Melissa Sellers, a Steele spokeswoman, criticized the blog.
It is deeply disturbing to learn that a staff member of ten term Congressman Ben Carden, Democrat Maryland, let me throw it in there since the AP doesn't, would keep a blog chronicling racial prejudices toward Lieutenant Governor Steele and others.
This is the kind of attitude and gutter politics that uh Marylanders are sick of and why they are ready for change.
The woman was a junior staffer who worked for the campaign for about a month, said Cardin spokesman Orin Schure.
He declined to identify her or elaborate on her duties.
More on that in just a second.
A blog posting on August 25th refers to a stack of Oreo cookies looming in the back of one of the campaign pantries, and how staffers have to surreptitiously glance around before eating them.
The subterfuge would be unnecessary and snack time would be far less amusing had an angry citizen not thrown the aforementioned delicious snack food at one of our opponents to comment on his lack of racial loyalty.
The blog entry reads.
Blog also contains an entry describing Cardin's friends as large men with strong loud voices and Jewish noses.
Now excuse me, our buddy, the prowler at the American Spectator Online, has the portrait of this person.
No big surprise that the campaign aid to Representative Ben Cardin, Democrat Maryland, challenging Lieutenant Governor Michael Steele for the open Maryland Senate seat, was steered to Cardin through MoveOn.org and the Democrat National Committees as a state Democratic operative.
Cardin's senior staff on Sunday mulled, putting out a story that the woman was believed to be a Republican plant.
But after reviewing notes of the woman's hiring, they discovered that she was a Democrat Party operative.
The staffer has been canned.
The woman who composed a blog called Persuasionatrix joined the campaign after moving to the DC area from Chicago, says the State Party operative.
She was a low-level staffer doing minor office assistant type of jobs, nothing more important than making sure there were enough pens and notepads around the office and making coffee.
Two weeks ago, the Persuasionatrix posted comments indirectly referring to Steele, who back in 2002 was pelted with Oreo cookies at a campaign stop, and I've I've read you some of those quotes already.
In another post she dealt with her discomfort with some of Cardin's associates.
love my job, love the people I work with like my candidate.
I adore his wife.
I do not, however, like some of his friends.
When my father was in medical school, there were a number of people he knew whom I would shy away from and not talk to at all.
This was strange, as most reports indicate that I did not shut up for a good ten years after my first sentence.
Of course, sometimes I'd run out of the room screaming, which is this is all on a blog.
This is deranged rantings of a lunatic.
As I've grown older and gotten to know these men who seem so frightening to the toddler me, I find that they share a number of characteristics.
They are large men with strong loud voices and Jewish noses.
They are also overly friendly.
Some of these men are now my friends, but some are just a little bit creepy to this day.
The State Party operative says that Cardin's staff informed the party that they were attempting to determine what other sites and activities newer employees and full-time volunteers were involved with.
They don't want another embarrassment like this, says the state party operative.
Cardin needs the black vote in this race.
This kind of thing is needless to say.
Damaging.
And of course, that's it.
I don't know if you've even seen much about this.
But George Allen is macaque comment live to this day.
And it is even growing.
The Washington Post, Dan Balls, and Zachary Goldfarb had a story yesterday.
That is uh it's just I just love this story.
I in fact, you don't even need to know anything more than the headline.
Major problems at polls feared.
Some officials say voting law changes and new technology will cause trouble.
Well, this is very obvious what this story is.
Democrats are setting the stage for their defeat.
Advanced talking points setting the stage for their defeat.
They were screwed again because voting irregular irregularities out there favored the Republicans.
An overhaul in how states and localities record votes and administer elections since the Florida recount battle six years ago has created conditions it could trigger a repeat this time on a national scale.
Of last week's election day debacle in the Maryland suburbs experts report in that election on the uh November seventh election, more than 80% of voters will use electronic machines.
A third of all precincts this year are using the technology for the first time.
The changes are part of a national wave prompted by the Federal Help America Vote Act of 2002.
Well, what a help America vote act of 2002.
Just a bunch of kids, helpless little kindergarten.
Help America vote.
Why don't we call it help the Democrats win act of 2002?
Anyway, in Maryland last Tuesday, a combination of human blunders and techno glitches caused long lines and delays in vote counting problems, which followed ones earlier this year in Ohio, Illinois, and several other states have contributed to doubts among some experts about whether the new systems are reliable and whether election officials are adequately prepared to use them.
Well, there's only one reason for this.
And that is the Democrats continue to lose confidence that they are going to win the election.
They are preparing the groundwork to explain their defeat in November.
Again, it'll be election irregularities, voting machines that have been rigged, and outright theft.
There's no other reason to write the story.
If the election system favored them, they wouldn't write a thing about it.
Their real problem is not enough people are voting for them, but they can't come to accept that.
It has to be something else going on.
Look at Ohio.
They lost big.
They lost 55,000 votes in Ohio.
They still claim corruption.
Kerry was out there saying if he'd only received 60,000 more votes in Ohio, it would have been a different story.
So it's another institution that the Libs are tearing to shreds.
It is obvious they want to rig the system.
More and more reforms will happen until the reforms deliver victory to Democrats.
That's what this is.
That's why they oppose voter IDs.
They can't cheat.
They can't engage in any electoral fraud whatsoever.
You know what the kicker is?
Who runs all these places in Maryland?
Who ran these places in Florida?
The three counties, Palm Beach, Broward, Miami Dade.
Don't Democrats run those counties?
Yes, they do.
Democrats run the state of Maryland.
The kicker is that Democrats are running most of these big cities where all this supposed fraud is occurring.
So I mean the truth would have to be that they are cheating themselves.
They're rigging the system against themselves.
Classic.
I'm telling you what it means.
It means they're not confident, folks.
They're not don't believe all this speaker to be Pelosi stuff.
Donald Lambro today in the Washington Times, Republicans gain in mid-term polls.
He quotes the Zogby poll that we shared with you on Friday.
And it's uh it's just uh more and more evidence piling on that uh that they what we heard lately that Republicans doing much better than thought.
Economy and gas prices uh going uh down is spurring uh rebirth in economic confidence.
Uh what else we have?
The uh uh failure to uh uh register all these new Hispanics after all these illegal immigration protests, the fact that the Republicans are gonna spend them five times to one uh on individual races, uh the fact what of the oh I'm now reading that uh you know there really aren't all that many competitiveness anyway because of Republican gerrymandering.
Uh what else are we reading?
Um there's one other big one out there that's f well a Republican outspending five to one.
I mentioned that's an early way to observe.
Uh the uh but what what what what is there was there there's one it's about a it's about particular um uh oh culture corruption's falling apart on them.
Uh that isn't working.
There's a lot of stuff that was just in the can that they were banking on that now is uh apparently not the case.
They're worried.
Quick timeout, we'll be back and continue right after this.
So last Friday, I'm in the new car, I'm tooling around on the way home, got the top down.
It's amazing how well I can hear uh uh in that car with the with the top down, too.
It's got a great sound system, this new SL65.
It's got folks that think it has 612 horsepower.
It's got the same engine that my MyBach has.
A MyBok weighs about 6,000 pounds.
This thing weighs less than half that.
This thing is dangerous.
I mean, it's cool, it's fun as it can be.
Speed limit here is 30, so I I had to venture off to highways on Saturday afternoon to put the thing through its actually.
You know, cutting some figure eights in there.
Just for the heck of Walmart's open 24-7.
Well, good thing you told me that.
Super good thing you told me that.
Uh it's not well, it's it's fairly fuel efficient.
I mean, can it it you I every time I go by a gas station, I have to really hold that steering wheel because the thing wants to go in there.
Uh no, it's not fuel efficient.
I didn't buy the car to be fuel efficient.
It's a twin, it's a bi-turbo V-12.
What do you mean, fuel efficient?
There's no such thing as fuel efficient by turbo V-12.
So anyway, I'm driving home and I've got I got satellite radio in there.
And uh, and I'm I'm I'm punching around and I'm putting all my presets in there.
And I come across uh CNN, and I'm listening to Wolf Blitz uh interview George Soros.
And I couldn't believe what I was hearing.
So we got the sound bites.
This is where Soros on Friday afternoon on Blitzed Show was talking about Bush is worse than Hitler and worse than the Nazis.
Or at least like them.
But you can't call terrorists Islamo fascists.
Blitzer says, I want to read you a quote that sort of startled me.
I guess I guess Soros has a book out or something.
I want to read to you a quote that sort of startled me.
I'm sure a lot of your readers, once they read it, uh the Bush administration and the Nazi and communist regimes all engaged in the politics of fear.
Indeed, the Bush administration has been able to improve on the technique used by the Nazi and communist propaganda machines by drawing on the innovations of the advertising and marketing industries, quote unquote.
Blitzer says, Now, what a lot of people hear comparisons between President Bush and Nazis and communists, they're gonna say, George Soros, you've gone over the top.
There are some similarities in the propaganda methods.
I think there are some serious arguments About our open society being endangered by the policies followed by the Bush administration.
the war on terror which does not have an end changes it it it leads to an undue extension of executive powers It has stifled debate, criticizing the president, this considered unpatriotic.
And as a result, we have been following policies which endanger our position.
When uh President Bush said you are either Vida's or uh or you are with a terrorists, that's when I was reminded.
Um has anybody said that it's unpatriotic to criticize the president?
I think it's the left who said that that is the new definition of patriotism.
I've never seen patriotism is supporting the mission against the Islamo fascists and and supporting our courageous troops on the battlefield, not undermining them and their morale and the mission.
So there you have it.
And this is one of the largest funders of these Democrat blogs and uh kook websites, 527 organizations out there, George Soros.
So Blitzer says the war on terror, uh you're right, cannot be won.
An endless war waged against an unseen enemy is doing great damage to our power and prestige abroad.
The world is in danger of sliding into a vicious circle of escalating violence.
We can escape it only if we Americans repudiate the war on terror.
So Wolf says, well, what are we supposed to do?
Just sort of give up and let the terrorists win.
When you fight the terrorists, you have to pick off of the terrorists and not war wage war, which creates innocent victims, which uh uh uh fuels rage and resentment, which feeds right into the terrorists' cause.
The war on terror is a false and misleading metaphor.
We have to fight terrorism, but war is the wrong re way to do it, and that is actually what I tried to explain.
It creates innocent victims.
It is an abstraction so that we can't distinguish between Al Qaeda and Hamas and Hezbollah and the Sunni insurrection.
It drives a gap between us and the terrorists so that we are the victims, they are the perpetrators, so that we don't realize that our actions have an effect on how people relate.
This goes uh well, we I mean it's it's uh this is a lost cause.
We can't distinguish between Al Qaeda and Hamas and Hezbollah and the Sunni insurrection.
Why should we distinguish?
Uh drives a gap between us and the terrorists so that we are the victims, they are the perpetrators so that we don't realize our actions have enough.
See, we're causing all this, ladies and gentlemen.
It's exactly what Sam, what's his name here, and I read his piece in the LA Times earlier.
Um Sam uh Sam Harris wrote, liberals just do not get this.
They do not understand who militant Islamists are, they do not understand their desires, their objectives, and they think that they can fix it all simply by empowering these people economically and with democratic rights and being nice to them.
Yeah, we have to we have to fight terrorism.
Well, fight it in the courtroom.
We have to fight terrorism and not have a war.
We need to fight on it, we need to pick them up.
We need to go every country where they're terrorists and pick them up and then bring them to court.
That's what we need to do.
We need to get serious about those.
We need to pick up these terrorists and we need to we need to let John McCain and Lindsay Graham deal with it, I suppose, or Jordan Soros himself.
Well, well, no, we'll have to capture them, but we don't do it at a war.
We can't we don't we don't have to have a war with them because we're gonna we're killing innocent people.
We're going out of our way not to do that, by the way.
Anybody killing innocent people, it's them.
3,000 on 9-11, Mr. Soros.
Later on in this interview, Mr. Soros uh uh acknowledged that he might have stepped over the line, because Blitzer kept pressing that.
They might have stepped over the line uh in uh uh calling Bush uh Hitler and Nazi-like.
My my my might have stepped over the line.
By the way, do you people remember the foiled plot in England to blow up ten jumbo jets headed uh where were where were they uh headed?
Um They were headed.
Where were they headed?
Hang on, don't tell me.
Now just don't I some reason fertile little gray cells here just aren't connecting.
Where were those airplanes in Al-Qaeda was gonna?
Oh go on, they were going, come on.
Brain?
What do you want?
They were coming to America, that's right.
They were gonna kill us.
They were gonna blow up passengers to America.
Ten airplanes in one day.
What are we supposed to do?
Fly up there with uh Chuck Norris or whatever, drop him out of some stealth fighter to get inside every one of the jets and nullify the terrorists, but not go to war with them.
These people are just genuinely stupid.
You know what?
They're the smartest people in the world are stupid.
Half my brain tied behind my back just to make it fair, Rush Limboy living a legend.
Serving humanity simply by showing up.
National Weather Service still bummed out that none of these hurricanes are reaching land.
But there was a big story in the uh the local paper, everybody's favorite paper, the Palm Beach Post.
Warning us that even though these things may be shearing, and there may be an El Nino effect, and all that, remember.
Hurricane Andrew came along in a slow season and killed everybody.
And remember, some of the most destructive hurricanes don't even happen till October, where they come from the South and the West.
Don't let down your guard.
We can still all die within 30 days.
Why do I?
Well, it is.
Palm Beach Post is everybody's favorite paper for whatever purpose that it serves.
Bird dropping liner for cages or whatever.
It's a some people like it.
It reads like a left-wing blog.
I mean, it's you ought to read the letters to the editor to it someday.
Sounds like George Soros writes every one of them.
Interesting piece in the Weekly Standard.
Um by David Gartenstein Ross.
Interesting premise here.
Practice makes terror.
And His point is, you know, all these false alarms we read about, suspicious airline behavior.
One passenger going berserk, causing the airplane to have to land, uh, all these things that have happened.
Maybe they're not false.
Maybe those aren't false alarms.
Maybe those are trial runs.
Maybe it's just not a bunch of kooks.
Maybe it's not just some deranged individuals.
Maybe it is.
The point is we have to consider this.
He gives some examples.
Twelve passengers on Northwest Airlines Flight 42 departed Amsterdam for Mumbai on August 23rd.
Quickly aroused the crew's suspicions.
Eyewitnesses reported that 12 passengers who were of South Asian descent attempted to use mobile phones and pass them back and forth as the flight took off.
Compounding that suspicious behavior, some of the men began walking in the aisles before the plane's seatbelt signs were off.
The flight was escorted back to Dutch airspace by F-16 fighters.
Passengers were arrested.
Dutch prosecutors announced the next day they found no evidence of a terrorist threat.
This dramatic incident comes amid what has generally been described as a rash of false alarms following the August 10th revelation of foiled transatlantic air terror plot.
Since then, at least 20 public incidents involving the airline security have been reported in the U.S. and Europe.
Recent events include a September 1st air tram flight to San Francisco being diverted after a passenger was seen sniffing a substance in a bag, and August 29th U.S. air flight from Philadelphia to Houston being diverted after a threatening note prompted a bomb scare, and an August 25th U.S. air jet being diverted after a disruptive passenger pushed a flight attendant.
The commonly accepted explanation for this spike in incidents is that airline crews and passengers are on a hair trigger.
There may also be casings and dry runs occurring, and it's difficult for an open society to guard against these exercises.
You know, it has been said, uh, ladies and gentlemen, that the Constitution is not a suicide pact.
A former Supreme Court justice or judge, some of some repute said this, don't remember exactly who.
and we all love to talk about freedom, and we rant on and on and on about it.
But you know, um, it does have its limitations.
And I think the people doing a great job of proving this to us are the Islamo fascists themselves.
I mean, let's face facts here, shall we?
Our minds have become so free and open and with political correctness, we've become so tolerant of opposing points of views, and because of our lack of ability to make judgments, we do not condemn that which is wrong or that which is evil for fear of offending evil or those who are wrong.
And as a result, our minds are becoming so open, our freedom is so free and open, our brains are falling out.
If we can't rein in what we call freedom, because what we call freedom has unfortunately morphed into a self-destructive license.
We're going to be so free that we're going to allow people to tear up the Constitution, we're going to allow people to murder us, we're going to allow people to commit terrorist acts against us.
Oh, yeah, and we've got people who and you know what?
Whose freedom we're talking about here are the terrorists, the enemy, the John McCain's and the Lindsey Grahams and the John Warners and the 45 Democrats in the Senate.
That's whose freedom and rights we seem to be concerned with.
We seem to be hellbent on here protecting the enemy and making sure they like us and making sure that they understand that we're not trying to make them mad.
We're really just good people.
We don't want you to kill us, we don't want you to make you mad.
And so we're promised not to torture them.
And we promise not to do this or that.
And we promise not to even let me ask you a question.
Let's let's say we don't torture them and fine and dad.
We don't even roughly interrogate them.
But if we put them on trial, isn't that not going to enrage them too?
If we have a bunch of trials with a bunch of terrorists, unless they're represented by the ACLU and get a liberal judge and they get acquitted, but isn't just the fact of putting them on trial going to enrage them as well, ladies and gentlemen.
Islamofascism, militant Islam, is the perfect example...
How you cannot allow evil to coexist with good.
When good negotiates with evil, evil always win.
Evil will always consume everything good because evil is aggressive.
Good is passive.
At least for most people.
Here's Larry in St. Petersburg, Florida.
Welcome, sir.
Nice to have you on the program with us.
Mega Dittoes and greetings from Home of Florida's best newspaper.
Thank you, sir.
Nice to have you with us.
Mainly because they say so.
Um today's front page of the St. Petersburg Times, uh, they have an article about angry and sour voters, and how and what's happening and what you should do.
Um because mainly because the voting public is too stupid to know what to do.
Um there are several columns.
I'd like to read one sentence.
Uh polls show, and politicians and experts from both parties agree that steady drip of bad news from Iraq, anger over high fuel prices, and the state of corruption and scandals have soured the public's feelings toward the ruling Republicans.
All right, Larry.
Yes.
Uh don't does I don't want you to give me a name, but does this story have a byline?
Is it an AP story written by somebody?
No, it is not.
It is a time staff writers.
Uh well, then they've lifted that from our buddy Nedra Pickler at the Associated Press, because I've seen all uh I have seen practically that exact line, and what struck me about I saw it last week, and what struck me about it is that gas prices are going down.
I realize that, and they they forget that the uh the uh public is taking their uh vehicles to gas stations and seeing for themselves and being able to to think for themselves.
They think that uh the public are just stupid idiots.
What do you know?
Well, some of them are, we have to be honest.
But uh the the uh uh bottom line is this.
That story came out last week in the midst of plummeting prices, and the story is that prices might continue to plummet all the way through the fall, so much so that on Friday afternoon on CNN, Bill Schneider, noted political scientist and pollster analyst for CNN allege that it's possible that big oil is behind this drop in fuel prices because they would prefer Republicans remain in power in Washington,
and it is possible there is a conspiracy going on here to lower prices.
Now he didn't he didn't explain what the big oil purpose was in raising prices, according to his very own conspiracy theory, which damaged Republicans earlier this year.
But I mean, this is CNN, drive by media, and a professional is alleging to the possibility of a conspiracy.
Your paper is so behind the times.
Gas prices are plummeting.
When did the story run?
Uh today on the front page.
Well, wait a minute.
You said it was an editorial.
No, uh, it is an article by Wes Allison and Bill Adair, time staff writers, stationed in the in the DC, that's for real Linda, that's District of Columbia.
Um uh uh I have often said don't try this at home, ladies and gentlemen.
Uh they're the Washington, they're the Bureau Chiefs up there in uh for the for the St. Petersburg Times.
I I have read the same thing in an AP dispatch.
Uh all these woes, all these things are gonna be the disappointing people toward the Republicans.
Once again, what you have there, Larry, is your two ace reporters writing a story they hope becomes the reality.
Gotta go quick time out.
We'll be back in just a second.
It's Abraham Lincoln that said the Constitution is not a suicide pact.
It's attributed to mutual sources or multiple sources to Abraham Lincoln.
I knew that.
I had just forgotten.
We'll be back in just a sec.
Stay with us.
John Boehner is not backing down from the furor he caused last week by questioning the real intent of the votes of several Democrats in the House of Representatives.
He's on Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace yesterday, and got this question.
Congressman, do you take back your remarks?
Again, what Boehner had said was sometimes based on the votes they cast, you wonder whether they're more interested in the rights of the terrorists and in protecting the American people.
And that's exactly what I've been saying today, frankly, in my own way.
McCain and all these people trying to protect terrorists and try to protect their rights and try to protect this rather than protecting the American people.
They seem more interested in that.
Here was Boehner's reply.
If you look uh at the USA Patriot Act, uh, we're trying to give the President tools to protect Americans, they fought against us.
Uh, you look at the Hamdan decision that came down from the Supreme Court.
Democrats were jubilant that the that the court was taking away uh the president's ability to do these military tribunals.
And then when the leak came out on the terrorist surveillance program over at NSA, uh the Democrats were jubilant uh that uh that this had been exposed and began to to press the administration.
So the point I'm making is that I think uh these programs have helped protect the American people, helped uncover uh terrorist plots before uh they happened, uh, and they're necessary programs.
And we're willing to give the president the tools that he needs to take on the terrorist.
And many times they stand in the way and try to fight us giving the president these tools.
No question about it.
They do it for a host of reasons.
They hate Bush.
But they're also liberals, and they're obsessed with guilt, and they really think these people could be made to like us if we would just empower them economically.
And we get our military out of the world and so forth, and we'd have no problems.
They they have such a perverted, convoluted view of reality.
Uh he's exactly right, and he is not backing down.
Hat tip today to John Boehner, majority leader, House of Representatives on the Republican side.
Dan in New Orleans.
Thanks for calling.
Welcome to the Rush Limbaugh program.
Great to have you with us, sir.
Ditto's from uh New Orleans here, Rush.
How are you doing?
Thank you.
Okay, look, I'm really, really getting fed up with all the Democrats crying and whining about our lost freedoms.
Um, let me ask a question to the Democrats.
Where was your crying and whining whenever I lost my freedom to smoke a cigarette at a barbecue on a beach in California?
Where was your crying and whining whenever now I have to wear a helmet instead of choosing to wear a helmet when I ride my motorcycle?
It seems like all they care about is giving freedoms to the Muhammad Atas of the world to plan another terrorist attack instead of caring about all freedoms.
See, I think uh uh Dan and the rest of you, I this is why I I remain eternally optimistic.
You came up with that on your own, right?
That sounds totally original.
I've never heard anybody say that.
You came up with this on your I I think what the Democrats are doing is so obvious.
I think what McCain and Graham and Warner are doing is so obvious.
I think most Americans get what we face.
9 11 was real for them.
I mean, to be honest with you, Rush, I I've sat here and I've racked my brain for about a week now trying to figure out exactly what freedoms have I lost because of the Patriot Act.
What have I lost?
Don't you know?
Don't you know?
Wait a second, Dan.
I'm surprised.
Well, you're in New Orleans.
Why you're a second class citizen.
President trying to kill you.
The president flooded your city with dikes and levees and a hurricane.
You know, right?
And he still hasn't rebuilt New Orleans.
And you're worried about what freedoms you've lost?
How about your economic freedom?
I bet you're poor and deranged and don't know where your next meal's coming from.
No, not exactly.
Um we're having filet mignon tonight.
So filet mignon of what?
Uh cow, I think.
Okay.
Well, steer, actually.
But you know, it's funny you mentioned that, Rush.
I saw a very funny political cartoon the other day, and the cartoon went wise man builds his house upon the rock.
Foolish man builds his house on the sand of the beach.
New Orleans man asked for 9.1 billion dollars to rebuild his house underwater.
Sorry, we're not to laugh.
Um we lost it.
We look.
Uh I I like.
I guess I'm foolish.
My house is on the sand.
Of course, it was it was uh well, it's not actually on the beach, but I'm 14 feet above sea level, but it um it's actually built before I bought it, but I was still foolish enough to buy it.
At any rate, uh I just think a lot of people are that irritated.
I I think I think there's far many more informed, knowledgeable people out there today paying attention to this.
And there's always this silent majority of people, but I tell you, they're there I'm I'm sure so many of you are just literally frustrated over what seems to make no sense whatsoever.
And it does boil down to something very simple.
The president is trying to protect the country, and the opponents are trying to protect the rights of those who want to kill us.
Ed in Chicago.
Welcome, sir.
Great to have you on the program.
We have about a minute here.
Yeah, Rush, I'll try to make it quick.
Uh thanks for taking my call.
You bet.
Uh back to this drive-by media hand wringing over the election uh electoral problems.
Yes.
Uh we we act like it's just an accident.
Uh if you pick up uh the book by David Horrow, it's on the shadow party.
Uh he points out how George Soros has been involved in flooding the voter rolls since 1994.
And he follows the pattern of uh Cloward and Pivans, who uh uh bankrupted New York by flooding the welfare rolls, and he's taken the same strategy to uh uh just like that destroyed welfare in New York, he's trying to create chaos from which he can pull uh out uh his own conclusions.
No question about it.
There's the not just Soros, uh all this mad cap voter registration.
The problem is they can register all the voters they want, but if they don't have the issues and the passion to get them to the polls, then their problem becomes get out the vote, and the Democrats do not have anywhere near the get out the vote effort and ability and system and plan that the Republicans do.
Uh plus, despite all these efforts to rig the system, the Democrats have still been losing.
And that's why they're really mad.
They've been trying to rig it, and they still can't cheat and win.
That they don't understand it.
Back into Steelers Jacksonville tonight on Monday Night Football, always a brutal football game.
If you love football, don't miss this one tonight.
