Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 podcast.
So I'm in the uh in the what are you called the kitchen.
Forgot what the room was called for a minute because I'm so seldom in there.
I was in the kitchen and Snertley comes up.
This is about a half hour ago.
Snurdly comes up to me and says, you know, this horse thing is getting way out of hand.
And if you were who you were back in the late 80s and early 90s, you'd be doing animal rights updates all over the place about the obsessive coverage over this horse.
He says there are real heroes in this country and across the oceans in foreign countries that are dying that don't get the kind of coverage the horse is getting.
And I'm sitting there and I'm listening to this standing there, actually.
No seats in our kitchen.
Uh, they're in the dining room.
Anyway, greetings.
Let me tell you where we are.
The EIB Network, the Limbaugh Institute, I, America's real anchor man, Rush Limbaugh, here's the phone number.
800-282-2882.
Email rush at EIB net.com.
So I said, look, Snerdley, I haven't shame.
If I attack this horse, if I do anything that makes it look like I'm attacking the horse.
There's there's nothing in it, and I don't feel that way anyway.
This is a brave horse.
This is a horse that everybody was pulling for.
The horse gave it everything.
We're talking about Barbaro, of course.
He said, I don't care about any of that.
People are going nuts with this.
They're writing cards and giving flowers to a horse.
The horse can't read.
The horse didn't know they were.
Sturdley.
You got to understand.
It's not about the horse.
And I reminded him of the of the funeral for uh Princess Diana.
Uh I mean, you remember that.
There were how many millions of people roaming the streets of London, 500,000, whatever the number was, and they were all dropping off flowers and placing notes and cards and so forth.
And everybody was trying to figure this out.
And uh George Will wrote a column.
I think it was George Will.
Uh I think came up with the best explanation for this.
That is, people wanted to be part of the story.
And it's the same thing with the death of Barbaro, and even before his death, they wanted to be part of the story.
And it makes people feel good to write notes and give flowers to an animal.
There's a story on the Drudge site today from London about a cat that's now taking Prozac.
The cat was depressed.
The cat was afraid to go outside.
Uh, so it sat around and just it did nothing but eat, bloomed up to 15 pounds, put it on Prozac, is now walking around the garden, goes outside, has no fears, uh, and has lost seven pounds.
You know, there's an attachment to animals because they're the essence of innocence, especially hardworking animals who were, you know, had this great will to live.
But it is, it is kind of interesting to watch the phenomenon of people get so attached here to an animal that they've never seen, other than on television.
But uh, he was really worked up about this.
Anyway, folks, great to be with you.
We have lots on the uh plate today, a uh a veritable uh buffet, a uh smorgas board, if you will.
You know, we just had we just had a a brilliantly hugely successful military operation in Najaf.
We wiped out hundreds of terrorist insurgents.
We blew up a plot by Shiites to kill leading Shiite clerics, including the Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani.
And uh the in fact the Shi'ite uh group that was going to do this are gonna use kids and others, uh, and they were gonna disguise themselves as pilgrims on the way somewhere, and they're gonna wipe out all these clerics.
And we blew it up.
And we stopped it, and we wiped out hundreds of these.
It's a huge story about cooperation with the Iraqi military and the security forces.
It was a great victory.
Would you like to hear the New York Times headline?
Missteps by Iraqi forces in battle raise questions.
Folks, trust me when I tell you, these people are invested in defeat.
It was somewhere like 250 to 400 bad guys killed.
And we get this headline, missteps by Iraqi forces in the Jaff battle raise questions.
They can't afford success in the Middle East.
In fact, let me amend that.
They can't survive.
The left in this country, the media, the drive-by media, the Democrat Party, they can't survive, ladies and gentlemen, if we win this in Iraq.
They cannot permit it.
It's not that they will not allow it.
They can't survive it.
It's not about belief anymore.
This is about political business.
Uh it it's it's uh But the Times even had to begrudgingly admit here, well, the Iraqis and the Americans eventually prevailed in the battle.
But the Iraqi security forces' miscalculations about the group's strength and intentions raised troubling questions about their ability to recognize and deal with the threats.
Well, let me ask you, uh, New York Times, who wrote this uh Mark Santora.
Mr. Santora, how are the Iraqis supposed to learn this?
Off the internet?
Is there some manual on dealing with Shiite insurgents that they can consult?
No, it's like anybody else learning to do something, including you learning to write bogus stories, you have to do it.
Well, you know, if only the Iraqis were as uh wise and clairvoyant as the reporters of the New York Times, why you realize the greatness that they could achieve.
Los Angeles Times today, Mara Reynolds, the infobabe reporter at this is unbelievable.
The Democrat majority is still the talk of the Capitol.
Yes, you heard what the Democrat majority still the talk of the Capitol.
Here's the opening line, the lead.
Will President Bush put the ick back in Democratic?
That was the hot topic around Washington yesterday after the president was asked why during his State of the Union address last week.
He referred to Congress's new Democrat majority.
Well, that was an oversight, Bush said on NPR.
I'm not trying to needle.
I didn't even know that I did it.
This is, as I printed this out, one, two, maybe three pages printed out.
And get this paragraph.
Whatever the initial impulse or rationale, the term Democrat Party became controversial as far back as the 1950s.
Senator Joseph McCarthy, Republican Wisconsin, famously used it to deride Democrats during his hearings, investigating whether communists had infiltrated the U.S. government.
During the 1956 Republican convention, the usage of Democrat Party was so common it prompted the New York Times to report that dropping the ick had become official party policy.
Now this is stunning.
The Los Angeles Times here has gone back 50 years.
5-0, 50 big years, to a Joe McCarthy speech or a 1956 GOP press release.
And there's the story also goes 20 years back to Reagan speeches to do an in-depth study into the also crucial origins of Democrat Party.
Yet the Los Angeles Times will not go back a few years to tell us what Hillary Clinton actually said about Iraq before the war started.
But they have devoted who knows how many man hours, how much research, and how much newsprint and ink to research a story on why it is and how it got started that the Republicans call the Democrats the Democrat Party.
That's...
You gotta love these people in lighter moments.
Ladies and gentlemen.
And let's audio soundbite here quick before we go to the break.
Miles O'Brien.
This was This Morning on CNN.
Stories of the morning are coming up.
We'll check in uh on the campaigns for president, Hillary Clinton, John Edwards, Rush Limbaugh, although he's not campaigning president, all weighing in.
You hear that Mike, you got that ready to go again.
Yeah, hear this again, folks.
This just speaks for itself.
Top stories of the morning are coming up.
We'll check in uh on the campaigns for president Hillary Clinton, John Edwards, Rush Limbaugh, although he's not campaigning president, all weighing in.
Now, how is it that I get mentioned in this roster when I am not running for anything, even though he mentioned?
Uh and I'm not a Democrat.
Hillary Clinton, John Edwards rush.
Well, there's an answer to these questions that I'm asking.
Later uh during the program, Miles O'Brien continued.
First, Democratic candidate John Edwards admits it might have been too soon for him to run for president in 04.
Edwards was serving his first and only Senate term when he declared himself a candidate four years ago.
Now he says that he has the experience needed because he went through a presidential campaign.
On the other side of the political spectrum, there's Rush Limbaugh.
He told uh his listeners none of the current Republican candidates.
Rev him up.
So that's how I got thrown in the mix.
What I actually said was nobody revs me up yet.
Here's the whole telephone call.
And by the way, I've seen this all over the place now.
It's not just on CNN, it's in print.
Uh limbaugh not excited about any of these candidates.
That's that's that's interpreted by the drive-by says as good news.
If I'm not excited about any of them, then that they're they're they're using that to tell themselves that the Republican stable is a bunch of duds and that they don't have to uh worry about it.
But here is the call that uh this this uh not revved up about any of them yet comment came from.
It was on Monday, January 22nd.
You know, to be honest with you, there's nobody out there that revs me up, so why should I pretend that there is?
Not to say there won't be.
It's up to everybody in public life who wants to run for office to get noticed.
You know, when I was struggling young disc jockey when I was seventeen, sixteen, and I would have loved if my radio station had gone out and bought a bunch of billboards and television advertising to tell my little town all about me, but it doesn't work that way.
Yeah.
And it's gonna be up to these guys to get it.
It's gonna be a challenge for any Republican who's not McCain or Giuliani or Mitt Romney, because they've got you know the early media attention on this, but all it's gonna take is a couple wins, surprise wins in primaries, the whole thing can be upset.
Now the caller was asking me about Sam Brown back, and well, why aren't you talking about Brownbeck?
I mean, Brownbeck's conservative, and why aren't you mentioning Sam Brownbeck?
And I say, No, frankly, uh, it slipped my mind that he was in the list.
And then I went on, well, well, you gotta get I said, No, it's not up to me to get no.
It's not up to me to pick these guys up and make sure everybody knows about them.
It's their job as candidates to uh to get noticed.
Uh and so I said, didn't nobody in the race on our side revs me up yet, and that becomes big news.
Yeah, I did.
I said I'm too early.
It's too, it's meaningless right now.
I'm too time, especially these polls.
I mean, it's not meaningless, but you can't take a presidential poll right now.
I don't care whose it is, and and project who's gonna win the election uh a little over what's two years from now, a little under two years and you just can't do it.
It's there's too many other stuff, as uh too many other things, too much other stuff to talk about today, as I will demonstrate uh coming up on the program right after this break.
Stay with us, my friend.
Hey, look, snerdily.
If you go quickly to Amazon.com, you can buy a toy Barbaro the horse doll.
Greetings and welcome back, ladies and gentlemen.
L. Rushbaugh, all knowing, all caring, all sensing, all feeling, maha rushy uh here at 800-282-2882.
Yesterday, we did a then and now with Mrs. Clinton showing how she is literally lying over the weekend in Detroit, or in Iowa rather than Des Moines, as she was describing to people how she voted for the Iraq War and what it meant.
She wasn't voting for war, she was voting for the president to negotiate, and he mistrusted uh uh everybody and tricked her uh and misused uh her vote, which she was not authorizing anybody to go to war.
We found sound bites from 2003, speaking to Code Pink, where she contradicted herself in every substantive way possible, even before the Iraq war started.
So no, I did my own research.
The world can't help us on this.
The world won't, just like the world didn't help my husband in Kosovo.
We have to do this alone.
This something that must be done.
We have to get rid of Saddam Hussein.
Oh, over the weekend in Des Moines, of course, uh totally lying about it.
We've got two more examples of this just to illustrate.
Again, let's go back to Des Moines, East Haskrule uh town meeting.
This is what she said about her position on a wall.
I said that we should not go to war unless we have allies.
So he took the authority that I and others gave him, and he misused it.
And I regret that deeply.
Yeah.
And if we had known then what we know now, there never would have been a vote, and I never would have voted to give this president that authority.
There are no do-overs in life.
I wish there were.
You know, I acted on the best judgment that I had at the time, and at the time I said this was not a vote for preemptive war.
And the president took my vote and other votes and basically misused the authority we gave him.
This is it's not just shameless.
It's uh that this is this is I don't know how to describe it.
She's just lying, uh, as large as can be.
This is not a white lie.
This is an attempt to restate the record.
Of course, the drive-by media has not gone back and researched any of her statements or her writings or her floor speeches from 2002 and 2003.
We've done it.
The drive-by media is busy researching the roots of how the Republican Party began calling the Democrats the Democrat Party.
But they're not researching and contrasting Hillary now with then.
Well, we'll continue to do the job.
The drive-by media won't.
September 15th, 2002, meet the depressed.
Tim Russert says to Hillary, do you believe that we could have disarmament without regime change?
I doubt it.
I can support the president.
I can support an action against Saddam Hussein because I think it's in the long-term interest of our uh national security.
And let's go back to 2002 again.
Senate floor, Hillary Clinton said this about Saddam Hussein.
In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program.
He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including Al Qaeda members.
Though there is apparently no evidence of his involvement in the terrible events of September the 11th, 2001.
It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare.
Two thousand two, ladies and gentlemen.
Two thousand and two on the floor of the Senate and on the stage on the set at Meet the Depressed with uh with Tim Russert.
And now go back and listen again.
Go back here.
We got audio soundbite number four.
This is what she said last weekend in Des Moines, Iowa.
I said that we should not go to war unless we have allies.
So he took the authority that I and others gave him, and he misused it.
Right.
And I regret that deeply.
Oh, and if we had known then what we know now, there never would have been a vote, and I never would have voted to give this president that authority.
There are no do-overs in life.
I wish there were.
You know, I acted on the best judgment that I had at the time, and at the time I said this was not a vote for preemptive war.
And the president took my vote and other votes and basically misused the authority we gave him.
Why didn't you say so at the time the war started?
If he misused your authority and vote, why did it take you until this past weekend in uh in uh Des Moines, Iowa, some three years later, almost four.
Let's go back to 2003, March the 7th, before the war started, Hillary again talking to uh Code Pink.
There is a very easy way to prevent anyone from being uh put into harm's way, and that is for Saddam Hussein too disarm.
And I have absolutely no belief that he will.
I have to say that this is something I have followed for more than a decade.
If he were serious about disarming, he would have been much more forthcoming.
I ended up voting for the resolution after carefully reviewing the information and intelligence that I had available, talking with people whose opinions I trusted, trying to discount political or other factors that I didn't believe should be in any way a part of this decision.
But I would love to agree with you, but I can't based on my own understanding and assessment of the situation.
Her own understanding, her own assessment of the situation.
She's telling Code Pink they're wrong.
We got to go get Saddam.
We can't depend on the rest of the world to do it.
That's the next bite we don't have time for because I want to go to Soundbite Number Nine.
Last night, the CBS evening news with Katie Couric, which nobody watched, which is why I'm playing the bite for you.
Uh A montage of Gloria Borgers report.
You'll hear some background noise in there.
Listen to this.
What has Washington buzzing is the way Hillary Clinton chose to answer what seemed like a seemingly innocuous question about how she would deal with the bad actors on the world stage.
Some political strategists figure it was part of a plan to deal with the inevitable questions about her marriage.
Early with humor and some attitude.
There is a much more serious issue that keeps coming up, not about the former president, but the current one.
If we had known then what we know now, there never would have been a vote, and I never would have voted to give this president that authority.
That's a very complicated answer, Katie.
And some of the other Democratic presidential candidates have just decided to simplify.
They just say they made a mistake.
What it's a complicated answer.
It's too complicated to answer the question to say they made a mistake and a president misused their vote.
You see, the drive-bys have no interest in doing any research the last three or four years on what Hillary Clinton or any other Democrat pres candidates have said about Saddam Hussein and the war in Iraq.
Back in just a second.
I don't believe you putting up a bunch of horse calls.
And there you are complaining to me that the only thing you're seeing on the news is news about the horse.
It's the horse and Hillary.
That's what people want to talk about.
The horse and Hillary.
How can you well?
800 28 Sorry.
You know the drive-by meet that Gloria Borger thing we just played.
Look it.
They're not even disguising it anymore.
They are just pure propagandists.
You know, they're not reporting the news.
They're not even it's not enough to say that they are advancing an agenda.
They are just propagandists now.
I mean, for come on.
We can go back and we can find these audio sound bites and we can get the text of Hillary Clinton's floor speech supporting the war in Iraq and all these horrible things that she was saying about Saddam while she claims it was the result of her own assessment and her own research.
And yet when the drive-by's discuss, well, that answer, you know, it's a little too complicated.
Let's let's focus on uh Hillary and and who she meant by evil men.
Uh latest answer on that, by the way, is me.
Uh, as was stated on Fox yesterday by some female talk show host at.
So we have that bite coming up.
Plus, we didn't talk about this much yesterday, but how about Hillary saying that she resents Bush saying that the war on terror will not be over by the time she takes office in 2009.
She resents that, and she wants all that stuff taken off the table and wrapped up, however it is to be done, even if we lose, just so she has a clean slate.
Now, you know, uh that's cool.
We ought to we ought to make that part of presidential politics and put this in the Constitution that every issue facing the country be uh uh before a new president is set to be inaugurated.
The current president, the outgoing president, has to fix it all before the new president takes office.
Uh which means that Jimmy Carter would have had to gotten rid of 19% inflation, 18% interest rates, and the misery index.
It means it means that Bill Clinton.
No, it means that George H.W. Bush would have had to get out of Somalia before Bill Clinton surrendered in Somalia.
I mean, this is absurd.
She resents it.
Anyway, but you know, she's doing that.
Your calls are coming up quick, folks.
Uh, just sit tight.
You know, Hillary having this conversation, this chat with uh with people on her website.
Our hackers are there.
There you go.
The conversation at Hillary Clinton.
Oh, we've got another one.
Our hackers got another one.
Oh, okay.
Let's listen to the second one.
At Hillary Clinton.com, the conversation continues.
Our next question is from Steve in Seattle.
I'm a 27-year-old married father of two who doesn't support the president's war in Iraq.
As president, what would you do to get us out of Iraq?
Thank you so much for bringing that up.
You know, There's nothing more important than our men and women serving in the military.
I meet people all the time who come up to me and say we need to get out of Iraq.
As many of you know, I'm on the record as I've um said many times before.
We need to come together and solve this problem.
And you know there's a lot I can do as president to get us out of Iraq.
So, as president, I'm committed to making this my top priority.
Our next question is from Rashid in New Delhi.
I'm 30 years old, and I'm your website support technician.
Mrs. Clinton, my question is, why do you need all this bandwidth?
Including me.
There are only two people logged into your website at this time.
Please allow me to allocate this unused space to Obama.com.
I'm glad you asked that, Rasheed.
You know, I hear about this from so many people.
There's nothing more important than this issue.
I meet people all the time who come up to me and say we need to do something.
At HillaryClinton.com, the questions may change, but the answer is always the same.
We women of the United States have a very clear message for every single presidential candidate, including or especially Hillary Clinton.
And we women say Paul.
Ouch.
No!
Rush Limbaugh, your guiding lights, a living legend serving humanity simply by showing out uh showing up, showing out.
Oh.
Um the uh just so you know that that's a code pink babe uh in Washington on Saturday, and uh at first I thought she was talking about troops.
Now to the phones.
People have been very patient.
This is uh Deborah in Richmond, Virginia.
Hi, Deborah.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Hey, Brush.
Hey.
Hello, Deborah in Richmond, Virginia.
Yes, hello.
Yes, hi.
Well, I have uh a different perspective of the uh cards and condolences for Barbaro and and Princess Die.
Yeah.
Um there's something called in in the communications literature called parasocial relationship theory.
Wait a minute.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
This is a new one.
Para social relationship theory.
Right.
And essentially, because these entities, Princess Guy, um Barbaro, uh, you know, soap opera stars and sitcom stars and so forth are a part of the media, people develop the ability to predict communications outcomes and behaviors, and therefore they develop a one-way relationship, which is essentially impossible, but that's what they believe.
So they feel they believe they have a relationship with these entities.
I'll say, you know, each Princess Guy or Barbaro.
And so they react accordingly.
So they're groupies.
Well, yeah, exactly.
They believe they have a relationship.
It's it's a theoretical perspective in the communications literature that was developed uh at the time that uh television became uh popular.
Yeah, uh soap opera stars would go out and go shopping and folks would meet them in the store and say, you know, they would act like they knew them.
Oh, oh.
So now I get the I was getting I was getting confused here uh when you said they're able to predict communication outcomes and behaviors.
I that that I don't know if there's any pred what what what like what is a Barbaro fan predicting?
Well, they can empathize with the horse, they've seen pictures of them, they know that the horse is a a grave soul.
They I mean it it's a little stretched in terms of Barbaro, but it's certainly not in terms of Princess Guy.
This all sounds like a global warming theory to me.
No, it's it's actually out there, and I'm just asking you to be a little more charitable.
These folks aren't just trying to get in on the event.
They really believe they have a relationship with these folks.
Well, okay.
Uh uh That's it.
So so uh additional sensitivity is called for here.
That's the point that you're additional sensitivity.
That's right.
Okay, this is uh parasocial relationship disorder.
No, or parasocial relationship theory.
Theory.
That sounds like a disorder to me.
Well, it could be, but that's the way it is.
I'm gonna tell you a little story about your soap opera star.
I cannot, I cannot.
I cannot reveal the source.
A certain United States Senator took a set visit to a very popular action thriller television show.
And he he dealt with every character in character.
He went up.
You remember uh Louis Lombardi, if you if you if you watch 24.
Yeah.
Okay, remember Edgar, the big guy that was c well, Edgar died, but before Edgar died, Edgar's mother died in a in a terrorist explosion.
This this senator went up to Louis Lombardi and said, Edgar, I felt so bad for your mother.
But you were you were very strong in dealing with it.
I I I so that's what we're talking about here.
That's well, then uh I mean that's a minor.
This is uh I mean I don't think the guy sent Edgar's mother cards uh and get well cards and so forth.
Well, that he talked to Edgar.
But I know what that's a good point.
But um all right, so that's more to it than just wanting to be part of the story and wanting to feel good because they care about something in it is it's having to do with the fact their lives are are are not fulfilled in some ways, maybe uh empty or meaningless.
Well, I think that it means that they can't distinguish between characters and and uh how many of these people you are you sound like an expert in this, Deborah.
I'm not an expert.
I've studied it, but uh that makes you an expert in this country.
Tell me how many of these people vote.
Oh, probably a lot of them.
That's scary.
Yes, it is.
It is scary.
Uh it makes one-way relationship.
Not possible.
Of course, actually, there may be a lot of marriages like that.
But I'm not talking.
You are too tempting.
I have got to go, otherwise I will get um in trouble.
Yes, in my normal ways.
Okay.
Thanks.
I love you, Russ.
Love you too, Deborah.
Thanks.
Thanks for the uh call.
We'll be back.
And I'm not gonna identify the senator.
Doesn't matter who the senator is, it just is no.
I don't think he's really prepared.
Quick time out, back in just a second.
Thanks for the note, Brian.
I'm glad you got your digital sender fixed.
News makes my day.
Welcome back, folks.
800 two eight two two eight eight two.
And the email address rush at eibnet.com.
Um the cliff in Bismarck, North Dakota.
Welcome, sir.
Great to have you with us.
Thanks, Rush.
You bet.
Wife and I were watching the news last night at six o'clock, and I wanted to.
What need more information?
What network, what anchor?
I think.
I think I was switching channels.
I think it was ABC.
Oh, that's gotta please ABC.
You don't know that you were watching them when you were.
Yeah.
You're not sure.
Well, I switched.
That's great news.
Okay, I love that.
Anyway, what did you see?
A refield reporter was giving a report on the death of the racehorse.
And his he went on to explain how they had to put him down, and his last statement in the report was, and his last meal was grass.
You gotta be kidding me.
I thought I was watching a report on execution in Texas.
Why why the why single out Texas?
They execute people in Florida too.
Why do you have the last meal?
The last meal, like pork and beans.
What were the horse's last words, by the way?
Was there any report on that?
No, no, no.
He he he was too sad to report that.
By the way, Barbero fans, you understand this is about the media.
This is not about the horse.
Yeah.
The poor horse that had no idea any of this insanity was going on the population.
That's that's the interesting thing about this is the horse was clueless.
I mean, they could have taken the horse to the notes and taken the horse to the flowers, and it would have made no impression whatsoever.
Um, well, I hope that I hope that was ABC.
That is a great story.
The horse's last meal.
Grass.
Probably was the horse's first meal, too.
And probably every meal in between.
Maybe some hay thrown in.
Don in uh Victor, Montana.
You're next, hello, sir.
Good morning from the big sky country of Montana.
Yes, sir.
North Dakota to Montana.
We're covering the northern tier states.
I'm a little uncomfortable having stood in line behind all these horses this morning.
My comment was about Hillary.
There was a fellow named Baker on Fox News this morning from London newspaper.
I don't recall which one, and he was talking in not too complimentary a fashion about Hillary giving away her values here and there at every campaign stop to where she seems like she's only doing this for uh the glory of it, and I was wondering what core values she ever had to give away in the world.
Yeah, that was the thing I was wondering when you said that.
I uh it was on Fox News this morning, you say?
Yes.
I didn't see it.
Uh but and so it was was it a journalist that is is hopeful about her chances and is supportive and thinks that she's blowing it.
I don't think so.
My impression was he was calling it like he worked for Fox News almost.
He just laid out the facts that she was just giving everything away to get what she wanted, which was the presidency.
Yeah, I'm I'm mystified.
Whether it's core values or not, I've been listening to her speaking, I don't know what she's giving away.
I assuming means she's compromising on things.
I I don't see it.
Well, that's it.
I mean, it's like she did have a value, like maybe this motherly image that she's trying to portend now is you know what chance that happened.
When you look at Hillary Clinton, do you think mom?
No.
All right.
Thanks, uh, thanks for the call out there, Don.
We gotta hit the trail, folks.
Back here in just a second.
Look, let me let me explain this Hillary business.
We're we're in sort of a giddy mood here today, folks, so sometimes we get a little bit off point here, but when when a reporter goes on Fox and starts talking about Hillary uh sacrificing her core values or or giving them all that he's saying is that she will say whatever she has to say to get elected.
She'll lie, she'll change her mind, she'll say whatever she has to say, and the press as her propagandist will let her get away with it.
She is not a brilliant woman.
She's not the smartest woman in the world.
She is hack.
She is a political hack, who is viewed as entitled to the White House because of the career of her own she threw away to follow the horn dog in chief to Arkansas.
And then was humiliated for 30 years in the process.
Well, she could have really been something on her own.
Question is if her name was Hillary Smith, would anybody be talking about her as a presidential candidate?
If her name were Hillary Limbaugh, would anybody be talking about her?
In other words, if her last name wasn't Clinton, she wouldn't be anywhere.
Speaking of Barbaro.
Um I was thinking during the break.
If the Republicans, if they if they had just waited and tried to save Barbaro instead of Terry Shivo.
Do you realize how things could be so different in Washington today?
Do you realize that?
What a political miscalculation.
They just couldn't wait.
It just they poured everything they had into trying to save Terry Shivo.
Imagine if that same concern and energy and love had been channeled to Barbaro.
