Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 podcast.
I need to make myself a little note here.
Just thought of something.
Tech ever fed a hungry or sex-starved child.
Yes.
All right.
Greetings, ladies and gentlemen.
Great to have you with us.
It's the Rush Limbaugh program, and this is the Excellence in Broadcasting Network.
Over 600 great radio stations and over 20 million people, comprising the most knowledgeable audience in all of broadcast media.
That, according to research done by the Pew Center for the People and the Press.
The telephone number is 800-282-2882, and the email address is rush at EIBNet.com.
Brian Ross with some more salacious instant messages.
You know, a lot of people start to make a big deal here over the fact that the media doesn't seem to know the difference between an email and an instant message.
The two are being combined to both be essentially the same thing, and they are not.
Somebody sent me an email note.
I can't find it.
I might have thrown it away because I knew it could remember it anyway.
Did some network do a dateline or primetime live or some such thing?
Do a thing on catching sex predators out there?
Daylight NBC made the point that anybody can go on the internet in an instant message format and pretend to be a kid or a page or anybody else.
And they do this to entrap these people.
Detectives go on.
Cops come up with a screen name and then instant message the perp as though he is somebody he is not.
And the only reason that I think the emailer is curious about this is that none of these sources have come forward.
Parents don't want the kids' names out.
The kids didn't want their own identities known.
Foley's not around here to defend himself other than the stuff.
And this is sort of, you know, this is even funny.
Phoney said he was abused by a priest.
And the Democrats, the libs, all, that's just a bunch of excuses.
Why?
Why?
That's nothing.
This is unconscionable for him to come out and say that and not name the priest.
Boy, that's just a bunch of excuses.
Why?
He's just trying to distract attention from this.
Now, if anybody else had come out and said they were abused by a priest, they're automatically believed.
They're hoisted up on a giant platform as the biggest victim of the world because the Catholic Church is a huge target of the American left, as is any religion that's not related to militant Islam.
And of course, the church would be automatically guilty, and the abusee would be coddled and comforted, hugged, and held.
And so.
But now it's just, that's just excuses.
Alcoholism, that's just excuses.
And media now running stories on famous celebs who have used alcoholism or addiction as a means of beating the rap.
And it's funny just to watch the double standards play out here, my friends, as the Democrats just continue to think that this is the issue now that's going to launch them to victory in the House in November.
In fact, there's a story out there.
I want to make sure I get this right.
Have you heard about these West Virginia guys?
A state senator in West Virginia said he's evaluating whether to continue his bid for a second term after a Charleston TV station aired revealing pictures of him last week.
My family has urged me not to withdraw from the election.
I'll work with them to make a decision in the immediate future, said state senator Randy White, a Webster County Democrat, in a letter to newspapers in his district.
An apologetic Randy White also wrote that he was shocked and horribly embarrassed after WCHS TV aired photos depicting him and at least two other men wearing only body paint.
The pictures were taken approximately two years ago in private were stolen from my personal computer, Randy White said.
He's a married father of three.
I'm not sure why they were given to the media, but I must assume for obvious political reasons.
Good assumption out there, Randy.
So he had an identity crisis.
He was going through an identity crisis and wanted to find out exactly who he is.
And the best way to do that was to go nude other than for body paint.
It could have been a tailgate party.
You never know.
Speaking, I'm watching MSNBC this morning, and I couldn't believe what I'm seeing.
I didn't have a sound up, so I just glance up periodically to see what's on there.
And I saw this graphic, nudists angry at Foley.
Holy cow, what now?
And then as they went into the story, they were referred to as naturalists.
Now, what did Foley do to them?
What did Foley do to the nudists?
And for MSNBC to fit, well, everybody hates Foley these days.
I mean, it's just everybody.
At any rate, I have been discussing, ladies and gentlemen, that the Clinton war room is at full speed on this.
And looks like I was more right than I even knew.
It seems that there's a group out there called American Family Voices, and it's a lib group.
And the president of this lib group is a guy named Michael Lux, L-U-X.
They've registered as both a commercial enterprise and a nonprofit enterprise.
And this outfit, American Family Voices, is now doing a lot of push-polling out there to Republicans.
For those of you in Rio Linda, push-polling is they're just making gazillions of phone calls out there.
These are phone calls, you answer the phone, and it's a recorded message.
And the recorded message is telling Republicans to call their Republican House members and urging them to ask for the resignation of Denny Hastert and the rest of the Republican leadership.
Now, who is this guy, Michael Lux?
Well, Michael Lux served in the White House from January of 93 to January of 95 as a special assistant to the president for public liaison.
In 1992, Lux served as the constituency director on both the Clinton Gore campaign and the presidential transition.
So these people, Clintonoid here, Clintonoids are trying to take out Danny Hastert.
People are trying to get close and close and close to the source of these instant messages.
Who are these people?
Brian Ross is intimating that most of his sources, if not all of them, are Republicans.
But some of his people that some of his sources are ex-Democrats who only recently switched parties, which leads to the question, yeah, well, what about their staffs?
Look, folks, there's no question Democrats are behind this.
Democrats are even starting to talk about it.
Stephanopoulos was on a TV show, Reimpa Good Morning America.
We have the soundbite coming up.
Speculating, hey, if this is discovered to be a Democrat dirty trick, not what Foley did, but the timing and the volume and the intensity of the daily dribble, the daily spurt, perhaps we could say here of information involving this whole story revolving around it.
Even Dawn smiling.
That's good.
Whether that is a Democrat dirty trick, and Stephanopoulos, it doesn't matter if it is.
Bagala, the forehead, alluded to the possibility.
I don't know if it's a Democrat dirty trick.
It could be.
It won't matter anyway.
So anyway, this program was all over cable news last night from the Ditto Cam interview with Denny Hastert and a number of drive-by media people very upset with me for raising the possibility that Democrats are engaging, getting very close here to engaging in gay bashing.
And that's what this is.
So they were all over themselves last night to defend themselves against the idea they might be involved in in gay bashing.
Andy McCarthy at National Review Online has an interesting piece today.
I just want to take a few moments to excerpt it.
We'll do that.
Get to the audio soundbites and your phone calls as well right after this first of the day.
EIB obscene profit timeout.
Back after this.
All right, we're not going to spend all day on this Foley stuff, folks.
I want you to know that.
I don't think it's going too many places.
We've got some audio soundbites that we'll go through, but unlike the previous days this week, I want to get into some other things because there are other things out there.
President is just kicking butt out in California.
Nobody knows it because he can't reach him.
He can't outdo the noise that the Foley thing is causing.
But he is on the warpath about the danger the country faces if Democrats are elected to power in November, either the House or the Senate.
I'll tell you a little bit about that.
As well as, well, we're hitting 300 million people soon, thanks to illegal immigration.
And the usual warnings from the population crowd are out.
And it's just a rehash of things I've heard my entire life about all the doom and globe and all the pitfalls and all the problems that such a large population in this country, the United States, poses to the world.
But first, here's Andy McCarthy, a little piece here in National Review Online called The New Democrats.
It says, it's more than a little precious to observe the feeding frenzy and recriminations over Foley's salacious internet chats with former pages, the ones that Speaker Hastert did not see and yet is accused of consciously avoiding by failing to do follow-up upon learning of creepy but not sexually explicit emails.
Now, I'm no flack for the speaker, but I thought he and other leading Republicans exhibited very poor judgment in coming to the defense of Congressman William Jefferson, Democrat, Louisiana, when the Justice Department was trying to investigate him for corruption.
But the current critique of Hastert smacks of suddenly changing the rules on a guy halfway through the game, it wasn't so long ago, that Democrats were horrified not by the specter of middle-aged perverts seeking or indeed having sex with the young people placed in their care for metering purposes.
What bothered them was that they regarded as the preternatural interest in it showed by those stuck-up, straight-laced Republican Bible thumpers like Judge Starr.
After all, he could have just dryly given us the bottom-line details, but oh no!
Democrats cried he had to linger on graphic detail after graphic detail in the star report over what happened between Clinton and Malinsky.
Here's one, phone sex.
I think is a pretty good 90s analog of instant message sex.
According to Monica Lewinsky, she had President Clinton, she and President Clinton had phone sex some 15 times.
And one of these times, Clinton was on the phone with Dick Morris.
Morris is getting his toes sucked, and Clinton was, well, Monica was under the desk.
And at any rate, all these tawdry details came out.
We don't have transcripts of these phone sex sessions, of course.
We don't know what the president of the United States was precisely saying or squealing like we do with a comparatively tame Foley, who for all we know was not actually having a physical sexual relationship with the objects of his virtual sexual attentions.
But we do know that at least some of these phone sex sessions took place on non-secure telephone lines, creating the possibility that they could be eavesdropped on by foreign agents compromising Clinton and our national security.
Although they are evidently sudden converts to family values and a robust national security, Democrats didn't seem very interested in such matters not so long ago.
What we heard back then was that Starr was too sex-obsessed.
It was unseemly to go into all this icky stuff.
And Andy's piece today reminded me of all that.
You know, you got to wonder, was one of these times where the CIA and the special ops had bin Laden in their sights and they call Sandy Burglar and Burglar gets hold of Clinton and can't get hold of Clinton is one of those times when Clinton's got Monica under the desk.
The story is that, no, that Clinton was out on the golf course and didn't want to deal with it.
But, you know, Clinton has a way of teaching women how to play golf.
The Clinton method for teaching women to play golf is you start out with the irons and then you work your way into the woods.
So who knows what was going on out there?
The theory is that Clinton was on a golf course or at a country club, saw burglar's name on his cell phone and just didn't want to deal with it and didn't answer the phone, a call back when the window of opportunity to nail bin Laden had closed.
So you have to ask, was Clinton engaged with Monica during one of these particular times?
We don't know, of course, but it would be, Brian Ross probably has sources who could dig deep if there were any interest.
Now, oddly, under circumstances where Foley is now gone because he couldn't last 30 seconds as an elected Republican once his conduct was revealed, we are now observing a frenzied call for Haster's head for not doing enough to investigate behavior that actually pales in comparison to Clinton's.
Now, the left is trying to say, and some people on the right are trying to say, come on, Foley did it.
He resigned.
It's horrible.
It's creepy.
It's predatory.
Why do you keep bringing up Clinton?
The reason I bring up Clinton, ladies and gentlemen, and the reason I continued down this tack is that the Democrats are trying to portray themselves once again, the liberals as people.
They are not.
They don't care about kids.
They don't care about phone sex.
When Clinton or any of them got caught engaging in it, it was, this is creepy.
Ken Starr is a sex addict.
Ken Starr is a pervert.
And they went out on the attack trying to destroy Starr.
They were not appalled whatsoever.
They did not think Clinton should resign.
They said this is a private matter, particularly a private sexual matter.
That really makes it nobody's business.
And beyond that, it didn't affect the way he ran the country.
Well, how do we the hell know that?
We don't.
Bottom line is, those same people are now leading the charge with willing accomplices in a drive-by media to not just hound Foley out of office, and he's gone.
Now, all of a sudden, Hastert has to go.
And now, all of a sudden, Boehner has to go and the whole Republican leadership.
They all have to go.
What's new about that ever since this administration was impaneled?
Rice has to go.
Rumsfeld stinks.
Cheney stinks.
Rove stinks.
Do you see a pattern here?
Regardless what the issue is, the Democrats' primary objective is to get Republicans out of town.
It's not just defeat them, it's destroy them.
That's the Clinton war room.
And when you are in the Clinton war room and you're a Democrat and your side is guilty of worse than what is being alleged about a Republican at present, you go on the warpath not to cleanse your party, not to get rid of the perverts in your own party or the creeps in your own party.
No, no, no, no.
You make it sound like it's an unfair attack based on sexual perversion on the part of the special prosecutor or a bunch of holier-than-thou stuffed shirt evangelical Christians, and you go out and try to destroy these people.
My point to you is that the attempts by, and I can, Chris Matthews, Bob Shrum, anybody at CNN, anybody at MSNBC, I don't care who they are, acting all offended and shocked and outraged and morally repelled by all this, are lying through their stained teeth.
These people are not a political party anymore.
They are akin to a mafia operation, which cannot win and control things in the area and the playing field of morality and legality.
And so to control the playing field and to win, they have to take out their opponents.
What is somewhat striking to me is how so many elected Republicans in Washington, after running the place, the House of Representatives, since 1994, don't seem to understand this.
Don't seem to understand exactly who the enemy is, what their MO is, and how to deal with it.
They continually allow themselves to be put on defense.
They go out of their way to show their enemy, no, we're not the bad people that you say we are.
I mean, Boehner's done some good things lately in fighting back, and you see how that angered the Democrats.
But I mean, there's no embarrassment.
There's no hint of irony whatsoever about the facts involving Bill Clinton and real phone sex and real sex.
Sorry, BJ's artist.
Whatever.
And now, not only did Clinton get to stay and there should have been no effort to get rid of him, nobody else should have been made to pay the price either, but the whole Republican leadership now should resign.
Don't buy it, folks.
Yes, and all at the same time, having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have behind the golden EIB microphone.
Utilizing talent on loan from God.
Newt Gingrich said yesterday that Denny Hastert handled this whole situation appropriately and dismissed a call for Haster's resignation by the Washington Times.
And I don't agree with that, Newt said.
I think it's very premature, very inappropriate.
Gingrich was in Lexington, Kentucky to give a speech to the University of Kentucky's Sanders Brown Center on Aging Foundation.
Haster's getting some support someplace.
L.A. Times storied a Foley case shakes GOP.
This is by Janet Hook and Ronald Brownstein.
Hastert, who was elevated to his post during the turmoil caused by the sex scandal involving President Clinton on Tuesday, shrugged off calls to quit.
I'm not going to do that, he said, during an appearance on conservative commentator Rush Limbaugh's radio show.
But there was no consensus among conservative leaders that Hastert or other House GOP leaders should step.
Down, notice how the template just easily gets placed out there.
Somebody says Hastert should go, and it becomes the whole focus of the day of the drive-by media.
Limbaugh, during his show Tuesday, charged that much of the furor over Hastert was fueled by Democrats who wanted to suppress conservative turnout in November.
Yes, I did charge that, but it's true.
There is no question that that's all this is about, suppressing conservative turnout.
That's the only way the Democrats have any hope of winning.
Other prominent conservative voices, including Focus on the Family and a Wall Street Journal editorial page, rejected the idea that any GOP leader should resign.
Mr. Snerdley told me today that he thinks I am the driving force yesterday that kept a parade of weak-need conservative organizations jumping on board the Hastert resignation.
Republicans, conservatives are conflicted over this.
And it's, I mean, the conflict derives from only looking at it in one way, and that is, oh, my God, we've got a creep and a pervert in our party, and we stand for what?
He's got to go.
And anybody had any slightest knowledge, clear him out of there.
We can't afford this.
And that's understandable, but they fail or don't attach enough importance to the political tactics, the strategy, the tactical effort that this is by Democrats to take out Republican leaders.
And every time somebody demands a Republican resign, if we're going to say, yep, yep, yep, okay, we'll quit.
It's bad to ignore.
I mean, Foley's gone.
Foley's been gone since Friday.
And yet this story survives.
The story survives now because it's only about using this to continue to get Republicans to quit and get out of there on the basis of doing the right thing or what have you.
The right thing has been done.
Foley is gone.
Denny Haster didn't send any instant messages that I know of.
Denny Haster didn't send any of these emails.
Denny Haster didn't do any of this.
As Haster himself has said, somebody's known about this for a number of years.
He didn't.
But somebody has, and all these holier-than-now people stepping forward saying they do this for the children couldn't have cared less about possible sex crimes against Churin.
Here's a story by Charlotte Robb from the French news agency.
A roiling sex scandal that led to the resignation of prominent Republican lawmaker Mark Foley has left the party fearing conservative voters may sit out next month's crucial midterm elections as President Bush said he was disgusted by the affair.
Yeah.
This is also the template.
You people, you are so outraged.
You are going to, you know, if people don't show up, I'm going to tell you what's, I've said this, I don't know how many times.
If the Republicans lose this election, you know what the main issue is going to be?
Remember what I said, Snerdley?
What's the main issue going to be?
What will it be?
Illegal immigration.
And that's the roiling issue out there.
If these people inside the Beltway and in New York and Los Angeles, San Francisco would get out into the middle of the country or the southern part of California and just get out there and find out what's on people's minds.
School shootings in Pennsylvania and all over the, there are people that are, they're just, they're distressed over a whole bunch of things.
It has nothing to do with this Foley business.
Illegal immigration, upset at other things that Congress is.
If there was a possibility that conservative vote turnout would be suppressed, it's already been done.
This is, if anything, this is going to rally people back to the polls because they've seen this so many times in the last 15 years, knowing what it is, they're fed up with it.
I think these guys just totally me.
They're 180 degrees out of phase on this.
It is like Chicago Tribune, and this is Hastrit's paper, Hastrit Image Party's Moral Stance at Risk.
As the Mark Foley scandal ignites D.C., the GOP base wants answers from the top.
You know, the Republican base was waiting to sit this out anyway.
And that's been a strategy that the Democrats have been trying to play for the longest time.
It's always been a question of turnout for this election.
There's nothing new about that.
They're trying to suggest that this somehow is going to suppress it.
There's an ongoing effort, town to town, city to city, drive-by media, outlet by drive-by media outlet, to suggest that it's already happened.
I mean, they've already taken a poll.
You people have already told them.
You aren't voting.
You are fed up.
You have had it.
What do we bet yesterday, Snerdley?
We bet that this guy Negrid would win the election in Foley's district.
Oh, yeah, we can't say what we bet.
I remember now.
Can't say what we bet.
But, well, at any rate, we've got that.
You agree or he disagree?
You think the Democrats win the seat?
See, Sterdley has no hope.
Sterdley, he gets caught up.
He watches C-SPAN and all this stuff all day long.
I get away from it.
I went down to Miami yesterday.
I'm thinking about, I can't say this or I won't get it.
Never mind.
Almost blew.
Now I'm looking at perhaps renting a suite for the Super Bowl because it's in Miami.
And so I went down there, took a look at the stadium.
You know what?
I got down there and all these TV trucks.
I said, what?
Who leaked the fact that I'm coming here?
And I found out it wasn't me.
I was able to sneak in a side entrance and a loading duck and up an elevator to the 300 level at Dolphin Stadium.
They fired the manager down there.
The Marlins did, Joe Girardi, and they hired a new manager, the third base coach from the Atlanta Braves, Freddie Gonzalez.
And that's what all the media hubbub was about down there.
So when I saw that it wasn't about me, I was free to walk in and out of there.
But I mean, I get away from this stuff.
Sturdley hangs in, and he is totally affected by the media bubble all the time.
And he's convinced that the Republicans have lost Foley's seat.
I am not.
Audio sounds, I think the turnout in Foley's district may surprise people on the Republicans, particularly if the Democrats don't let go of this.
And if there's more to come spurting out, and if there's another thing that happens on Friday, or whatever these October surprises are, I'm telling you, there's rage and anger out there at the Democrats.
The media never reports it.
The media never talks about how much anger there is at the Democrats.
And even on their side, other than when they talk about some of the blogs on the left and how upset they are that the Democrats are not sufficiently anti-war.
But other than that, I mean, there's a lot of discord in the Democratic Party.
There's a lot of unhappiness.
There's no such thing as total unity on the Democrat side, but there is, and there's anger there, but it's never reported.
But the raging anger at the drive-by media and willing accomplices of the Democratic Party felt by conservative Republicans is something never accurately measured by the drive-by media and the Democrats, other than they give lip service to it by calling us angry white men.
Audio sound by time.
Last night, CNN, the Situation Room, correspondent feeder Peter Viles reporting on the Foley situation.
Every network last night mentioned my interview with Hastert.
Only one reporter in CNN got close to describing what I said correctly.
The man who pretty much invented conservative talk radio was urging his listeners to support Speaker Hastert and the Republican Party.
If you want to say goodbye to the Supreme Court actually having a fundamental change in its ideological orientation, if you want to say goodbye to all that, then fine.
You go ahead and you encourage Hastert to resign and anybody else you think ought to resign, and then you encourage Republicans to lose.
You know, this was in a discussion yesterday about Republicans and Hastert needing to fight back on the issues that really matter to people.
People are not going to go to the polls on the basis of this Foley scandal.
Some Democrats might, but what really matters to people is the future.
You ever hear Democrats campaigning on the importance of Supreme Court nomination?
They're not even doing that themselves.
They are so bereft of any substance in this campaign, they're not even warning their voters about that.
Now, they'll probably get to it once the 08 presidential race comes around, but this is just an effort by me to get the Republicans focused on issues, go back on offense and tell the American people how precariously balanced the nation will be if Democrats do get power.
Last night, same show, fill-in host John King, CNN, talks to Democrat commentator Bill Press.
Hey, question, who does it turn out, Bill, and who does this Foley scandal keep at home?
What's your assessment?
What Mark Foley did was so repugnant, but the fact that there were five Republicans, three of them in the leadership, who knew about this five months ago, six months ago, maybe as much as a year ago, and did nothing, I think is worse than anything.
And for Hassert to go out there, and I heard him today on Russ Limbaugh's show trying to change the subject and talk about Democrats are going to raise taxes.
What about it, Bill?
What's wrong?
That's not fair.
It's not fair.
We've got Hastert pinned down talking about Foley, and he tried to change the subject.
All he wanted to talk about how Democrats are going to raise taxes.
Bill, are you afraid of the truth?
You're afraid of people hearing the truth of what you're going to do if you win power?
Let me ask you, Bill, what's the first thing Democrats in the Congress are going to do if they win power?
Is it going to make sure to flush out every sexual predator in the House, Republican and Democrat alike?
Is that what they're going to do?
Bill, that's what you want us to believe.
You want us to believe that Democrats are going to really, really, really ferret all this stuff.
We're going to get the creeps.
We're going to get the perverts.
We're going to throw them out.
We're going to clean the place up.
I know Democrats aren't saying that, but they're making it sound like they're the guys to do it, which is another howler.
We know you're going to raise taxes.
Bill Charlie Wrangell is saying so.
What is so frightening, Bill, about the truth in a campaign to you Democrats?
Back in just a second.
Okay.
Greetings, my friends.
Welcome back.
Rush Limbaugh, what is with this race?
To be the first guy to say, I'm the father of Anna Nicole Smith's kid.
What in the world is that about?
I just see these things.
You know, I glance up during the commercial break at the TV.
I would no more cover that story or talk about it.
I might make fun of it like I'm doing now, but to treat it seriously.
There it is again.
This is the second time in less than a minute that PMS NBC, Larry, breaking news.
Larry Burkhead says he is the father of Anna Nicole Smith's baby.
Is it some great thing to have had sex with this woman?
I mean, this is my kid.
It's my kid.
That's not what they're really saying.
They just want everybody to know that they made whoopee with the babe.
Got an email.
Got an email.
Check the email during the break.
Dear Rush, you said in 1998 there was overwhelming anger at Clinton and it would drive conservatives to the polls.
It was even the cover of your newsletter that month.
We lost seats.
Sorry, Rush.
I'm hoping for the best, but I'm expecting the worst in November.
This is from a man named Edgar in Atlanta.
Okay, so I went back and I turned back the hands of time and the little gray cells here, millions and millions and millions of them, all firing neurons at light speed.
As my memory was being researched, what was the circumstance in 1990?
What were the Republicans talking about in 1998 during the midterm congressional elections?
Yeah, there was overwhelming anger at Clinton, but what was it about?
Was it not, if you go back and look, 1998, was the entire Republican message not focused?
Let me, I don't want to ask it as a double negative.
It's confusing the people in Riolinda.
Do you remember the entire Republican message in 1998 being focused on Clinton's sex scandals and the resulting impeachment?
And everybody was saying, where's the outrage?
Where's the anger?
How come nobody's mad about this?
And the Republicans had a singular message.
We were flabbergasted that during all of this, Slick Willie's approval numbers were still in the 60s.
And we were agitated and irritated watching all these Democrat strategists go on television at night and explain it, make excuses for it and so forth.
I don't recall that the Republicans in 1998 were talking issues.
And also in 1998, we didn't know of the terrible terrorist threat that we faced as we know today.
So I think circumstances are somewhat different.
In fact, Lanny Davis was where Larry King alive last night.
And King says, Lanny, can this give me, compare this to Clinton Lewinsky?
It's about a private behavior situation.
I think Democrats have to be real careful not to try to turn this into a political partisan issue.
Stop the tip.
It's about Lanny.
They already have Lanny.
Listen to the rest of this.
It's about children.
It's about why the Republican leadership took so long.
We have to ask for an investigation and get the facts out and stop and be quiet.
I'm an admirer of Howard Dean, but the Democratic National Committee puts a press release out today.
It's a purely political organization.
That's what we should not do.
And we have to be very careful about not allowing this to be exploited politically.
Of course, we need to ask questions and have the facts speak for themselves, but that's about it.
See, a little warning out there from Landy Davis.
You're going overboard, my friends.
He's saying to Democrats, politicizing this, calling for Haster's resignation before the investigation is complete, doing all this.
He's worried, too, about it going overboard.
He's been there on the other side.
And I'll bet you that if Lanny had the chance, he would say, yeah, the Republicans' singular focus on Clinton's sex and sex capades and impeachment and so forth made it easy for us.
And if you look, the Democrats go, whatever the issue is, they fire everything they've got.
They overdo it, everything.
The pattern has been that it all backfires on them at one point or another.
What if it, for example, what if at some point in this whole saga, it is learned that this is a Democrat dirty trick?
Democrats are so confident that even if that is proven to be true, they're not worried about it.
They don't think it'll matter.
Lanny Davis does.
I'm talking about the guys engaged in the effort itself, the strategic political maneuver.
Quick time out.
Back with more after this.
I just figured it out.
