Time Text
Hiya, folks.
Great to have you back.
Fastest Week in Media underway.
Here we are already at Friday.
We're already in the last hour of Friday, which is Live from the Southern Command in Sunny South Florida.
It's open line Friday.
Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yahoo.
Hubbahuba Doobado and all that.
When we go to the phones, the program is yours.
Talk about whatever.
If I don't care about it, it doesn't matter.
Telephone number 800-282-2882, and the email address is Rush at EIB net.com.
Well.
Still have lots of stuff to do here.
As uh as you know, uh, ladies and gentlemen, it was uh it was on Wednesday, uh Hillary Clinton appeared on the Today Show.
And just let me let me recap my theory for you about because everybody's been trying to figure, including me.
What is this Obama phenomenon?
What is it?
It it came out of the blue.
I mean, I know there was this speech at the Democrat Party convention, and then they had this best selling book and so forth, but this is this is this goes beyond that.
This is my first theory was that he appears godlike to the godless and to the hopeless and the thirsty.
Uh Saint Obama, if you if you will.
But still, this how is this happening?
Everybody knows that Hillary Clinton is the anointed one.
This is her nomination.
This is the Democrats have been building up to this for years and years, I think I finally figured this out.
At least this is a possibility.
I think the drive by media is engaging in a uh a plan to build Obama up so that Hillary Clinton has something to overcome, an obstacle uh rather than just go through this appearing to be anointed with no competition.
Front runners don't usually win things when they're front runners from the get go.
So you put Obama out there, you build him up, going into New York, making a play for Hillary's people.
She's got a challenge now.
And uh at the right time, forces, powerful forces will come together and descend on Obama and squash him like a gnat.
And it'll be made to appear that Hillary has overcome this great obstacle.
And and uh and she's you know, I think she's uh being set up here for this.
It's all part of a some grand strategy.
Uh Obama, I don't think is part of it.
I I I think he's I think he's buying fully into this notion that he's godlike to the uh to the godless.
And of course, we've got you know Hillary coming out now talking about uh her can't well according to Insight Magazine, Hillary's team is interested in his uh Muslim background and is he really a Muslim and hiding it from everybody.
It's it this is Hillary's team doing this.
This is not a bunch of Republicans saying this.
They wouldn't dare.
They don't have the guts.
And then we've gotten stories about how mainstream traditional civil rights leaders such as the Reverend Zax and the Reverend Sharp do not find anything particularly great about Barack Obama because he's really not one of them.
Born in Hawaii, educated in Africa in part.
Uh so all these little rifts now are starting to show up.
And Hillary was on was on uh Matt Wower uh Today Show.
Uh, and we we've got want to play this bite again uh with the Clinton War Room zeroing in on Obama, and we've added we could play this Wednesday.
We've added my conclusion that I added on Wednesday at the end of this bite.
Then Lauer said, Look, Senator Obama uh has announced he's opening an exploratory committee.
Is he qualified?
He's been in the Senate two years.
Is he completely qualified to be commander in chief in your opinion?
The voters will make these decisions.
That's what's so great about it.
I mean, he's a fellow Democrat.
Would you be comfortable with him in the White House?
I'm gonna let all of those decisions be sorted out by voters.
Meaning, wait till we get through destroying this guy ourselves and make it look like the Republicans did it.
I'm not worried about Obama, she is saying.
No, she's not.
She's probably not worried about him at all.
And then but but uh it's of course being presented that she is.
Last night on CNN The Situation Room, correspondent Jonathan King interviewed the Reverend Dax.
And he said to him, Um, you say you're inclined at this point to support the man who would be the next African American in the Democrat field, Barack Obama.
It's all in my heart links to it, Barack.
He's a next door neighbor, literally.
Uh I think he's an extension of our struggle to make this a more appropriate union.
I'll talk with all of them, but uh my inclinations uh really to it Barack.
Really?
It's all in my heart linked to Barack, next door neighbor, literally.
Hmm.
Because Barack has a strange real estate deal that uh is involved in the acquisition of some part of his property.
Well, see, this is interesting too, because now this this is the civil rights leadership responding to the story out there that they don't feel a connection to Obama.
Uh next he discusses how dangerous it is for a um black candidate, King responded.
And yet, as uh Jackson shares memories of eighty four and eighty-eight with his friend, he also remembers the ugly side.
There was such uh and and tip of the tour, my running, we received the most threats of any candidate ever.
I had the most sensitivity to the fact that what they have secure to at our home uh the threats of real.
Every place we went, Secret Service was always on the edge, and if you think it's not real, I mean think about what happened to John Kende and Barbara Kenda and Baltic King.
Uh there's the ever present threat.
Right.
And it was said that uh Alma Powell, Colin Powell's wife didn't want him to seek the presidency for the same reason.
Of course, I don't know anybody's ever made any movies uh threatening the assassination of Jesse Jackson or Barack Obama, as they have about George W. Bush.
I don't know anybody's written any books on how to do it, uh, as have been written about uh George W. Bush.
Well, at any rate, that's the latest Obama.
Get this, the state chapter, the MAALCP in North Carolina yesterday called on those involved with the Duke Lacrosse sex assault case from the defense attorneys to state bar officials to shut up publicly while the state attorney general's office begins its review.
We sincerely believe that the high level of public scrutiny and controversy involved in this matter is unwarranted and threatens to pervert the truth finding process, said the Reverend William Barber, president of the NAALCP.
Uh Barber said nobody knows the totality of the facts.
We don't expect, nor should North Carolina citizens condone a resolution of this case based on biased and political or public pressure from the public or any overzealous supporters on either side.
What we must do is insist that we follow the facts wherever they lead and face the facts when they are all in.
Well, doesn't surprise me as it surprise you.
Makes total sense to me.
The NAA L C P wants everybody to stop talking about this case.
You know why?
Because it makes all the race pimps look like just what they are.
A bunch of hysterics with no regard for the facts.
You know, the picture of this accuser is starting to crystallize with more and more people after she's changing her story all these times and all that all that uh uh all that uh DNA.
I was gonna say DVD, all that DNA that had nothing to do with any of the cross team.
Of course I I'm totally I totally understand why the NAALCV would like people to shut up about this.
Because it's ruining their business.
You know the dirty little secret.
These guys would love for this rape to have occurred.
And since there's no rape now, they would love for this sexual assault to have occurred.
That would promote the race business.
That would promote the template.
That would give them a reason to go out, fundraise and uh and all of that.
That's why they want people to shut up about this.
I there was a column, and I don't think I printed it out.
Column by a columnist, the Raleigh newspaper, News and Observer, and it's a great column.
He talks about how he felt when he watched the Attorney General for North Carolina come out last Saturday and make the press conference.
We're taking over the case.
Because it the next scheduled hearing in this case is February 5th.
And at that hearing, the charges could be dismissed.
They can just the judges throw this thing out on February 5th.
But the Attorney General said, hey, my prosecutors don't anything about this.
We haven't even got case files yet.
They didn't get them to this past Tuesday.
Now we're not probably we've got to get up to speed.
We're starting scratch.
We're starting in day one, which means they've got what, 20 days to February 5th when they took this over.
They can easily say we're not ready by February 5th and ask for a delay, which is just going to prolong this.
But the last paragraph quoted uh one of the defense attorneys, Donald Evans, I think his name, saying, We're happy.
We want this investigation.
We can't keep billable hours, too.
Uh, didn't say that, did I?
Billable hours.
Yeah, we want this investigation to go on and on and on because the more investigation takes place, the more it will be clear to everybody no crime was committed.
And we want these prosecutors to know this because you can't prosecute a crime that didn't occur.
And I said, Oh, yes, you can.
You it happens.
You think that crimes that have never been committed haven't been prosecuted?
I can tell you they have.
Uh Patrick Fitzgerald.
There's no crime in terms of what the original investigation was about.
He claims a crime was committed in the process of investigation.
There's no crime, but there's a there's a there's a prosecution, there's a trial.
Don't kid yourself that it doesn't happen.
Be back in a second.
Okay, spanking bill in California.
State legislature about to weigh in on a question that stirs impassioned debate among moms and dads.
Should parents spank their kids.
Wants to outlaw spanking children up to three years old.
If she succeeds, California would become the first state in the nation to explicitly ban parents from smacking.
They're crumb crunchers.
Making a SWAT on the behind a misdemeanor might seem a bit much for some, and the chances of the idea becoming law appears slim at best, but Lieber begs to differ.
I think it's pretty hard to argue that you need to beat a child three years old or younger.
It's okay to whip a one-year-old or a six-month-old or who's talking about whipping or beating.
That's not what spanking is.
Remember, I had to go cut my own twigs a bunch of times.
Why I could sit out in my underwear in the backyard at night to cut my own twigs, and we're next to hospital and nurses walking by, you know, in the alley behind the house.
I said, gee, whiz.
I got all embarrassed.
Nurse didn't know I was there, it was dark.
Bill is being drafted, be written broadly, she said, uh, prohibiting any striking of a child, any corporal punishment, smacking, hitting, punching, any boy.
What do you equate spanking with punching?
So there you go.
It's a miss the what's the what's the what's the penalty here?
It's such a long story.
If my six-year-old doesn't put his clothes in the hamper, I'm not going to whack him.
He just won't get his clothes washed.
Well, that makes sense.
You can see send the kid around in bad hygiene.
That's really good punishment.
It's like rubbing your dog's nose in its own poop to housebreak it.
That really makes a lot of sense.
Next time the dog comes along and licks you.
Can't find it's a misdemeanor.
Uh oh, up to a year in jail.
Up to a year in jail or a fine up to 1,000, although a legal expert advising her on the proposal said first-time offenders would probably only have to attend parenting classes.
That's even worse.
Bunch of arrogant, conceited liberals trying to take over.
The raising of children.
Channel 5 in San Francisco, CBS 5.
Do parents have the right to spank their children?
It's a controversial issue.
And while a Bay Area lawmaker wants it addressed in Sacramento, a majority of those surveyed for a CBS 5 poll expressed opposition to a spanking ban.
Five hundred Bay Area adults conducted by Survey USA on Thursday.
57% would oppose such a bill.
Only 23 would uh support it.
A poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 4%.
Folks, you you gotta forget the results of the poll or you just somebody has proposed this.
It's not the state's job to raise your kids.
It just isn't.
Arnold Schwarzenegger, by the way, the governor of California, who is calling his proposed tax increase alone.
I still can't get over this.
Sorry, I just can't.
I mean, you know, Clinton calling them investments was bad enough.
We're not even getting an investment in California.
We're gonna borrow a tax increase.
Growing up in Austria, Governor Schwarzenegger said he got smacked about everything.
But when it comes to disciplining his four kids, he and his wife never resort to spanking.
He expressed an open mind yesterday to a controversial proposal that would uh ban parents and spanking children under the age of three.
Hinted that he has concerns about how the bill could be enforced.
Is it that when you see someone spank a kid, you go and say, Can I see a birth certificate of the kid?
Hey, we got spies in grocery stores that have ratted out parents and called child protection services.
Hey, we've heard about all this.
Hell yes, you're gonna have all kinds of neighborhood spies running around trying to look in windows listening for kids crying.
Probably not even ever witnessing the spanking, just hearing the crying.
Maybe there was no spank, calling child protective service and the kids going nuts and the accusation, you gotta prove you didn't do it.
It's just it's just asinine.
I wonder if this bill.
You know, once it starts at three, you know, liberals never solve problems with this legislation.
They go higher than that.
What's if three, then it'll raise it a five.
Then they're raised to eighteen, they'll raise it so that you can't discipline your kids at all.
Wonder wonder if they would ever have a bill saying you can't spank yourself.
You know that and what's this gonna do to San Francisco?
Where spanking is a way of life.
It's enjoyment.
I used to spank myself uh when I'd made an error on the radio or whatever, and then people would call it get mad, and I would spank myself.
I did it on my television show to demonstrate it once.
We have the audio from that, because I'm not gonna do it now here on the ditto cam.
Uh, but this is from November 6th of 1992.
I can spank myself.
People who spank themselves, next rush.
Watch this.
Do it.
My left hand, I'm I'm right hand, so it won't hurt as much.
Do it with my left hand.
Ah!
Applause.
Imagine that being a crime.
Spank your now, I know I'm older than three, but you know, and I must say that when I spanked myself at work.
I usually didn't make the same uh mistake again.
By the way, we've been on this case.
We've been on the case of spanking, and the government tried to control it for the longest time.
Okay, gonna be going to a break here pretty soon.
We're gonna get uh a lot of you people on the phone just hang in there because I'm gonna try to go wall-to-wall phone calls in the uh in the next hour because I've run out of things I care about here, other than well, not totally.
There's still some things here.
But some of your calls, frankly, look more interesting than some of the garbage I got in the stacks here remaining.
Uh federal uh the Fed Reserve chief yesterday warned that entitlement growth could harm the economy.
Uh it's true, but and the warning has been issued here for all my life.
All my life.
We haven't done anything about it.
And we won't do anything about it now because we have to deal with global warming.
We will be back.
We need tax revenue for really you don't have to think about it if you don't want to.
We do that for you.
And back to the phones.
As promised, Baltimore and Nick.
Welcome, sir.
Glad you waited.
Welcome to the show.
Hi, Rush.
It's an honor to speak to you.
Uh you know, I I've learned more history from you and Bob Grant than my history teachers here at school.
I mean, um I was pretty much told that Israel is a state sponsor of terror and that they train Muslims.
I mean, Menachem Bacon was the originator of uh Islamic terrorism.
Well, I've heard that Menachem Bagan was a terrorist.
I mean, I've heard that that line of thought, that accusation, but but but not of Islamic terrorists.
Um is your guy trying to say the Islamists learned that from Menachem Begin?
Yes.
I mean, they're pr he was pretty much saying that the teacher that is.
He was pretty much saying that Menachem Bacon originated it, and they're just following his script.
Your professor saying this?
Yeah.
I mean, and and it's and it's in such a way that you're not.
Are you in college or high school?
I'm in college.
You're a freshman in college.
Yes.
Oh man.
What university?
Uh I go to uh well, I'm in Baltimore.
I go to a private college.
Uh, a private col this is that that's absurd.
I know.
And um, you know, it it's it's all like what you've been talking about about the definition of terms.
Uh I mean, they define the terms in such a way that you can't respond to them.
And you know, I I was just wondering if you had any kind of rebuttal that I could give to this guy.
I mean it's kind of like You know, I here's here's the thing.
You you tell him this.
You know, what's his first name?
Well, no, don't do that.
I don't want to get just say, Mr. Professor, I can understand if you want to try to tell us your version of terrorism, and then you want to tell us that that that the Israelis are Minocham Bagan actually taught these people how to do it.
Why in the even so, why does that excuse them for doing it?
You are this is this is you're excusing their behavior on the basis that they're not responsible for it because they learned it some that's absurd.
I'm just trying to give you a question you can throw back at him.
It's got some logic in it to force him to defend what apparently is his tolerance for Islamic terrorism.
Yes.
Uh I mean he and you know, he's he's uh he obviously doesn't like Israel.
He says it's you know an illegal state and um it shouldn't exist.
No, man.
You're you're f you're you're f you you're fighting a losing battle with this guy that you're you're dealing with an anti Semite uh for one thing.
And you and and he's got the power because he's the professor in the classroom.
They're crying out loud this and he's is is this a history class, did you say?
Yeah, history 101.
101 of Western civilization.
This is absurd.
All he has to do is tell him to go read the Quran.
Tell him to go take a look at some of the ties that uh militant Islamists, the the grand mufti of Jerusalem had with Hitler.
Back in World War II.
Uh the the uh the the idea that that uh that there was no Islamic terrorism prior to Menachem Bagan, is this what he's saying?
Yes.
That that's what he's saying.
All right, then th here's another thing you can say.
Because everything is blamed on the Jews.
You can say this is a country that is nine miles wide, not very long.
You trying to tell us, Professor, that a nation of six million or four million Jews is responsible for the woeful economic circumstances of the five hundred million plus Arab population that surrounds this country.
Are you telling us that the terrorism that's occurring by militant Islamists in the Philippines and in Singapore is because of Israel?
No.
Well, I mean, when it when it comes to other places around the world, and this is supposed to be history, he pretty much blames America and says that, you know, we incite this all over the world by our actions.
Of course, America's responsible for Israel because we support Israel.
Why, if we didn't support Israel, there wouldn't be any terrorism, and the terrorists would love us and the Arabs would love us if we didn't support Israel.
This is all this this is um It it's like the script you're always talking about that the drive-by media subscribes to and you know every liberal.
this is beyond that.
What you're describing is somebody who is absolutely uneducated and is living off of bigotry and bias and And obviously hatred.
Mm-hmm.
There's no there's no knowledge backing this up.
There is nothing more, and he's trying to indoctrinate you guys with this.
I'm glad you're resisting it.
Uh I'm glad you're on the air down here that I can hear you.
Because I mean you're you're a sense of truth.
Well, you're one of many uh thankful Americans, and I'm I'm glad you're out there as uh as well.
But you um what is your what what is your instinct here to just let this guy preach to you know it's a bunch of BS, go in one ear and out the other, take the test and get out of there, or is it to challenge the guy?
Well, uh my first inclination is to challenge the guy because I don't agree with anything the guy stands for or what he's talking about, but on the other hand, I also realize that he controls my grade.
Right.
And if I, you know, push it push the wrong button, he may he may um you know penalize me.
Right.
Now my advice, I get this question a lot.
My advice Is stand up for what you believe in.
You're a freshman in college.
You already can tell by talking to you educated, you're articulate, you're able to express your opinion, and you're only going to get better at it when talking to people with whom you disagree.
Don't shy away from it.
Just don't make it personal with the guy.
And your grade shouldn't be subject to things.
Make it appear like you're trying to learn.
He's got a point of view, you have yours, he's the teacher.
You can always maintain that that that respect for his authority and his position, but it doesn't mean you have to cave on your beliefs.
You'll be far better off standing up for yourself and learning to express what you think and then come up with even more affirmations for your belief the more you are challenged on them.
Uh particularly in this kind of you're the only guy in class that uh uh feels this way, or is you got so you got some compatriots in there.
Oh, I do, um, but they're not as vocal as I am about it.
Yeah.
Um unfortunately.
Well, uh no, I don't mean about that.
I'm just saying I if I wanted to know how outnumbered you are in here, because that can be somewhat intimidating too.
But since it's uh it's a 100 uh level course, it's it's required, so a lot of people just don't even care.
Yeah.
They just uh and that's that's what scares me that people are actually believing what he's saying.
Yeah, I know.
I know.
And it's it's uh and it's probably the first time I've ever heard anything like this, and they go, wow, yes, this makes so much sense.
Because they have no factual basis to challenge it, as you do.
Well, uh stand up for yourself.
Uh tell him where you think that uh you you disagree.
Don't don't say, look, klutz, you're wrong.
Uh you you can you can do this, you know.
There's diplom diplomacy comes in many forms.
You you can tell this guy he has an open mind rather than tell him he's got holes in his head.
But I wouldn't I wouldn't cave on what you believe just for the grade.
That's that's that's not a good life lesson either.
Uh-huh.
But you never know.
The guy might give you a better grade and have some respect for you because you're standing up for yourself.
And as long as you're not challenging his authority, long as you do this in the context and the guy's trying to learn, you'll be fine.
Okay.
Even though you know he's wrong.
Uh huh.
Your your attitude, we're I'm here to learn.
You're presenting something that's uh foreign to me, blah, blah, blah.
You know, take him out of the limb further.
Make him get even more ridiculous proving this stuff to you.
That that'd be fun to listen to, too.
Yeah.
Just can say I don't quite understand.
How can that you know, by the by the time you get through with this guy, the whole class may recognize he's a kook.
I can only hope.
Yeah, hope.
No, don't hope.
Do.
Yes.
Don't hope.
All right.
Thanks for the call.
Appreciate it out there.
Nick, this is Tim in Orlando.
You're next on the EIB network.
Hi.
Uh mega golf, great golf dittoes from Orlando, Rush.
Thank you, sir.
Um, you know what?
Uh, my job is I write position pieces and marketing pieces for various types of equipment that come past my office and my desk.
And one piece of equipment that I came across is something that has changed my life in golf.
It's it it basically teaches tempo in golf, which um, you know, I was a twenty-one handicap prior to getting this thing, and I'm sitting right at a ten right now, and I haven't done anything other than listen to this thing.
What is it?
Well, all it really does is it it works kind of on the principle of a metronome, and it basically builds your tempo up.
But what is it about what is it?
How does it work?
Where do you is it w uh uh you put you put it in your ear similar similar to like an MP3 player, and um you react to the beeps and the and the noises, and basically it retrains your swing.
And you know what this sounds this this this sounds like the kinds of things that musicians are now putting in their ears to keep tempo, to keep time with the music, little clicks.
It's it's exactly that way.
In fact, the guy who developed it has spent about thirty-five years of his life uh as a as a as a sports he he would he's filmed golf over the last thirty-five years, and he he sat down with all the modern equipment um that's it that's out there on computers, and he basically found that every touring pro, every great pro has the exact same three to one ratio tempo.
Yeah, for those of you who are not golfers, and for those of you who resent discussions of golf, tempo is the i well, it's hard to sick signal out one key in the golf swing, but uh i i it'll tell you tempo tempo in golf just like location, location, location real estate.
Let me ask you this question, Tim.
Does this work for the deaf like me?
You know what?
It it it really does, because I have uh I have no hearing in my right ear um after in a car accident.
It basically um shattered my eardrum.
So I put it in my left ear and it works, you know, it it's implanted in the right.
Well what about what about for people deaf in both ears like I. You know what?
It'll it'll work perfectly simply because it has it has a visual aid to it as well where you can react to a a blinking light, you know.
Uh you can you take this out on the course or this is for the range.
You can y you know what?
It's small enough you literally can take it out on the golf course.
What what's small enough that generates a blinking light that you can see?
It's uh it's an MP three player that has is basically a a pretty strong little LED light that you can see.
Wait a minute.
This MP3 player got hooked to your belt or something, and then you got a cable going up to your ear?
That's correct.
So I'm supposed to watch the MP three player instead of the ball to get the temp.
No, sir.
I I understand your question.
Bas basically you're you you you would have that as a visual.
And um once you're gonna be a big thing.
Yeah, but if it if it's not at the ball, it's it's worthless to me.
Where I can't have anything distracting my eye on the ball of the little red blight lights going off to keep me in time.
Okay.
I in your case a part I I don't know how to answer your question.
Well, then I can.
In my case it won't work.
But I'll tell you this.
If this guy could invent something that does not require an MP three uh player like device, just something self-contained to put in the ear.
As long as the USGA approved it, of course, and I'm not violating golf rules.
I don't want to anger the golf gods.
I do that enough simply by playing.
But if he could do that without a wire in this sort of stuff, I can understand how this would help with tempo.
Because it's uh with the musicians now, the only with with as much noise as on stage and in the arena keeping time, especially if they're matching pre-recorded stuff with live, uh uh it's it's crucial.
I can see where it would be a uh very helpful device.
At any rate, uh Tim, I'm glad you called.
I got to run here a little long in this busy broadcast segment, back with more after this.
Back to the phones.
It's open line Friday.
I'm Rush Limbaugh with half my brain tied behind my back.
Scott in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Hello, sir.
Yes, sir.
Yeah.
Mr. Limbaugh, it's good to talk to you, sir.
Appreciate that.
Thank you.
Um, as I was telling Mr. Snerdley, um as I consider myself and a lot of people do, part of your extended, extended family.
Yes.
Um we hear you talk to Mr. Snerdley and and people on the other side of the glass, and and I hear you talk about your home and you know the view you have.
And uh I I would really love to see a nine foot television.
I've never seen one.
It's bigger than my garage door.
And I was just I don't I don't have one.
I think Fourteen feet.
Oh, okay.
Sorry, I uh uh but uh don't have a nine foot.
Oh, okay.
But as I was telling him, if you could, you know, consider doing, you know, something like an MTV cribs of your home, but with a little class, and you know, post that on your website uh on the free side.
Uh you know, so we can just take a look see at it.
We Why does this why why why does that you know it probably interests you only because I make the mistake of talking about it sometimes.
No, no, no.
Creates curiosity and you want what you can't have.
I mean what you can't see.
I mean, it's why I tea what's no no no, don't mean it that way.
Um you want what you can't see.
You want to see what you can't see.
Sure.
Absolutely.
Um with whatever you think.
Like like like the the the crew on the other side of the glass.
Right.
I know I know a lot of their names.
Yeah, but I don't know anything about them.
Well, that's the way they like it.
Believe me.
They see what happens to me and they love anonymity.
Okay.
And they love be they they love the fact nobody knows what they look like.
Okay.
Something I can never get back.
All right.
Without plastic surgery, which I'm not gonna do.
Okay.
Uh as for the behind the scenes stuff, I it's it you know, I just it's it's just a matter of there there's no gosh, I can't even explain this.
I don't think there is a classy way of doing it.
I just I just don't.
I mean, I just don't.
I I I don't think that it is um plus in addition to that, there's the the the privacy concerns that I have.
Sure, absolutely.
We wouldn't want to infringe on it, but you know.
Of course you do.
Well, you never say ever so slightly.
Uh what was that?
I didn't have a laughing at myself.
I said ever so slightly.
Ever so slightly just a little peek in the door.
Yeah.
Uh okay.
Well, I may I could I may take a picture of my golf clubs.
Okay.
That wouldn't be a big deal.
That'd be a start.
A picture of EIB one, or maybe a model.
A picture of the model.
That wouldn't be a bad thing to do.
Because it's exact paint job.
Picture of the model of my car.
Exact paint job.
I would love to see the car.
You'd like to say what?
The car that you've talked about, but you haven't told us what it was.
Yes, I have.
Have you uh are you watching on the Ditto Cam right now?
Uh no, no, I don't I don't have uh a subscription.
I get to listen to you three hours a day and and three kids I don't have time to watch on television, watch on the computer.
Yet you would have plenty of time to go to the computer to look at pictures of my TV screen and other things.
Absolutely, I'd make time.
Okay.
I I appreciate I appreciate your honesty in that.
Well, thanks.
I want to get one more call in here before we have to go, and I'll, as I do with all these uh requests, consider it.
One more thing.
Real quick, Mr. Limbaugh.
Yes.
Um I hear you talk about 24 all the time.
I haven't heard anything about the Sopranos in a while.
Have you lost your taste for them?
No, which is not on the air right now.
The only thing I can tell you about Sopranos is that uh James Gandalfini called in sick uh recently for a shoot they had down on Mulberry Street in Little Italy in Manhattan.
I don't think this thing's gonna start airing till March.
Maybe maybe later than that.
It's not gonna start airing till Rome ends, and Rome just started, so.
No, they they're not even finished shooting it, so there's nothing to talk about.
Okay.
All right, well, thank you for your time.
When it premieres and uh and continues its decline, I will I will comment.
Uh Martha in New Orleans, welcome to the EIB network.
Hello.
Hi, Rosh.
Hey.
Um, I disagree about the NFL players.
Um when the Saints picked Reggie Bush, before he even signed his contract, he was down here, you know, helping out, giving my.
I didn't and I didn't say the whole league.
I didn't say every player.
No, I know you didn't.
But I I I think that I mean I can't think of one player on the Saints team who, you know, is a I forget what you called them.
They didn't call them anything.
I said they just exhibit a lot of clay.
That's all right, class like well.
It's not to name names here.
There are there's a there's enough that engage in this.
It's a it's just a cultural and systemic thing.
But look, I know that the United States Saints are clean and pure as the wind-driven snow.
They are a fantasy.
Not a fan no, that's what Obama called you a fantasy.
You th they they they are a dream team, uh, if you will.
And they're tired of this.
They want to be known as a good football team, and maybe after Sunday with the game against the Bears, they will be.
We'll see.
Back in a sec.
All right, make book on it.
Here are the Super Bowl teams after Sunday night, the horses and the Saints.
It's Rush Limbaugh on open line Friday in the can.
Have a great weekend.
See you uh folks on uh uh Monday.
Yes.
