	Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 podcast.
	Hey, hey, hey, hey.
	Greetings, my good friends.
	And welcome to the Rush Limbaugh program.
	As you know, this is a program exclusively tailored to rich Republicans and right-minded conservatives who are not ashamed of being either and to those who aspire to being one or both.
	Anybody else listens at their own risk?
	Great to have you with us as we kick off a brand new week of broadcast excellence from here at the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
	Our telephone number is 800-282-2882, the email address rush at EIBnet.com.
	The president spoke for five minutes today, about a little over a half hour ago, on the fourth anniversary of the Iraq War.
	PMSNBC essentially doing another one of their telethons trying to drum up anti-war support and proclaim it a failure.
	The rest of the drive-by media pretty much in the same mode.
	And the president's speech, we'll get some sound bites of it.
	I wish it were a little bit more upbeat, tonally, attitudinally than it was.
	But I still say that all of these people on the left who have proud ownership of defeat had better start thinking about what's going to happen when this works.
	Where will they be?
	What will they say?
	And how will they handle it?
	Because it's clear that General Petraeus, with only two of the five divisions that are part of the surge or brigades, whatever they are, in place, they all won't be in place until June, are actually having a lot of success.
	We got a couple of interesting competing polls about the attitudes of Iraqis.
	And it's interesting that the drive-bys are ignoring the good poll.
	Also, we had this anti-war protest in Washington yesterday.
	And of course, it was dwarfed in number by counter-protesters, which is also not being talked about much, if at all, in the drive-by media.
	There's also a new commercial, a video commercial on YouTube that is a remake of the Apple Computer Commercial launched in 1984 during the Super Bowl, produced by great movie director Ridley Scott.
	It's done some good movies.
	And it just destroys Hillary Clinton.
	It literally destroys Hillary Clinton.
	And a tagline at the end of the commercial makes it look like that it's from Barack Obama.
	He's out there denying that it's his handiwork.
	I have an idea whose idea and handiwork this is.
	Could be David Geffen.
	Geffen has the know-how.
	Plus, he can handle illegals on something like this.
	Just a wild guess, ladies and gentlemen.
	But this is a new era.
	You know, all of these campaign commercials that are going to be running on the internet, television broadcast outlets are going to be, I mean, they'll still get their money.
	They'll still get their complement of political ads, but it's going to be all over the ballpark on the internet.
	It's a brave new world out there.
	And it's only just begun.
	And the whole point of this ad is, I mean, you've got Hillary on a giant screen with a whole bunch of drones.
	I mean, a bunch of mind-dumbed robots that are filing in.
	It really, it looks like the movie Soylent Green or any, just a bunch of people being filed in to be dispatched.
	They're just zombies.
	And they're listening to Hillary on this giant screen utter one cliché after another about her conversation with Americans.
	And down the aisle, there are two rows, or there's two areas of seats.
	There's a row right between them in the middle.
	And this woman, looking like an Olympic athlete, comes charging down, carrying a sledgehammer.
	And you're winding up ready to toss it.
	Finally, she tosses it and just obliterates and destroys the screen on which Hillary Clinton is uttering her clichés.
	And of course, it's called 1984.
	That's got the Big Brother reference in it.
	This time, the woman's wearing an iPod, by the way, got her candidate slogan on the t-shirt that she's wearing.
	And the tagline for this is on January 14th, the Democrat primary will begin, and you'll see why 2008 won't be like 1984.
	And there's an updated Apple logo transformed into an O.
	The Apple logo used to be an Apple with rainbow colors.
	This is an O with rainbow colors.
	And it's followed with the logo BarackObama.com.
	And so here you have Hillary just mouthing inanities, clichés, to a bunch of drones, and a woman walks in and just totally destroys it.
	Somebody's made a copy of this that goes five minutes.
	A second version of it doesn't look nearly as professionally well done as the first, but it's still fascinating.
	I guarantee you at Clinton Inc., they're trying to pinpoint who did this.
	And if they can find out that Obama had anything to do with it, he's out there denying it, of course.
	But this is the thing about the internet.
	Anybody can put anything up there.
	Callers to a talk show.
	Anybody can call a talk show and claim to be anybody they want to be and say whatever they want to say.
	And how do you really disprove it?
	It's up to the responsibility of the host to determine whether or not something is airworthy in that sense.
	But on the internet, and this is not a complaint, there is no such filter or guide.
	And I don't mean to sound like a drive-by journalist here in worrying about no filter on the internet.
	That's not what I mean.
	Anybody can put anything up there, put BarackObama.com at the end of it, make it look like it is.
	Whether it is or not, and it's, I mean, eventually they'll find out who did it.
	This is getting such rave reviews that the ego of whoever did this will not survive long in anonymity.
	The person is going to want to take credit for it.
	The drive-bys continue to go nuts over the U.S. attorney firings.
	A strange, strange headline today in the Associated Press: White House hopes Gonzalez will stay on.
	Hopes Gonzalez will stay on.
	What is that?
	The White House said today that it hopes Alberto Gonzalez survives bipartisan calls for his resignation and remains in President Bush's cabinet.
	When asked if Gonzalez will serve for the rest of Bush's term, Tony Snow said, Well, we hope so.
	What do you mean, we hope so?
	I hope he survived, hope he'll stay.
	It's up to him.
	Adamo, this, this talking about this last night with a friend, I just remain mystified over this White House's refusal to fight back on any of this stuff.
	There has to be a reason.
	And the reason cannot be that they don't understand that they are being targeted for destruction.
	They have to know that.
	It cannot be that they are relying on some miracle down the road to pop up and embarrass all these critics.
	I mean, if it's that, Lord help us.
	There has to be an active policy and philosophy that says we're not going to respond to this, and we're not going to fight it, and we're not going to get down in the mud with the people leveling these charges.
	We're just going to give these people what they want.
	We're going to act embarrassed.
	We're going to act like we got caught.
	It is really inexplicable to me.
	Some might say that, well, you know, the president, he's never been partisan because he believes that being partisan is beneath the dignity of the office and he's just not going to do it.
	Well, okay, fine and dandy, but why does that mean when they want Rumsfeld scalp, you give them Rumsfeld scalp?
	And why does that mean when they want somebody else's scalp, you give them them?
	I'm telling you, it's beyond explanation to me.
	I do not, I just don't have an answer.
	And I have thought of every possibility out there.
	And it's not just the president.
	Nobody within the administration reacts to this stuff in an instinctive or visceral way, the way all of us do, the way all of us would if it were us that were being targeted for destruction.
	Make no buns about this.
	You know, I keep saying that the objective here of the Democrats is to take Bush out before the 2008 election.
	It'd be, nah, they're not going to do that.
	They don't have time.
	Maybe they won't have time and maybe they won't get it done, but I'm going to tell you right now, I full well, and I've been predicting this since before the 2004 election.
	I expect there to be articles of impeachment filed at some point this summer just to get the whole process going.
	Whether they succeed with it or not is irrelevant to them.
	I mean, if you want to have the ultimate procedure in pestering and hounding the White House with all these Iraq resolutions and everything else that's going on, a U.S. attorney flub, why not add articles of impeachment to it?
	So I, well, let me pull back.
	I'll stop short of predicting it at the moment, but I seriously will not be surprised when it happens.
	We got audio soundbites of a lot of things today.
	The Reverend Sharpton misspoke a couple times today during a press conference, responding to the three detectives being indicted in the Sean Bell shooting.
	A big story in New York, huge story.
	This is the story where three cops fired 50 rounds at an unarmed man, a groom, at a wedding and coming out of a nightclub late at night.
	And now they've announced what they're going to do.
	They're going to indict the three cops.
	Sharpton at a press conference.
	We got audio.
	And Al Sharpton's still over the weekend outside the campaign headquarters of the star of the internet today, Barack Obama.
	And CNN has decided to defend the Breck girl on the orchestrated and mean-spirited neocon attack on his looks and on his femininity.
	And who do you think is the focal point of the CNN criticism?
	It occurred last Friday.
	It is I, your host, El Rushbow.
	All of that and much more coming up right after our first obscene profit timeout.
	Don't go away, my friends.
	On the cutting edge of societal evolution.
	In sort of as a setup to the story CNN did defending the Breck girl against allegations that his looks are a factor in the election.
	A story here that I found Friday night, this is from Livescience.com.
	Man of steel mentality helps guys heal faster.
	Now, we've heard all the stories over the years about how men don't ask for directions despite taking wrong turns all the time and just being individual.
	And I'm going to do it on my own.
	I'm going to get there on my own.
	I'm not going to stop and stop asking directions and all these other clichés.
	And the stereotypical tough guy, a real man, rarely asks for help or shows signs of weakness because then he wouldn't be a guy.
	Many scientists have considered these masculine tendencies to be barriers to health and recovery, meaning you don't ask for help, you don't admit your weakness, then that's a sign of a lack of health and a chance to recover and get stronger and so forth.
	However, a small study of about 50 men suggests the exact opposite.
	The man of steel mentality, often associated with military men and those in other high-risk occupations, can boost and speed up a man's recovery from a serious and/or traumatic injury.
	It's been long assumed that men are not as concerned and don't take as good care of their health, said Glenn Good of the University of Missouri at Columbia.
	But what we're seeing here is that the same ideas that led to their injuries may actually encourage their recovery.
	Now, this, even though it's not cited here, I recall the story we had last week.
	It talked about genius men, creative men, and how it's impossible for them to stay wedded to one relationship.
	They're constantly out there needing new challenges and new thrills because they're easily bored.
	And it's this high-risk-taking factor of creative men that Einstein was cited as an example.
	You wouldn't believe a number of guys I had, even friends of mine, emailed me wanting copies of that to show it around.
	Because after that story, every guy that heard it thinks he's a creative genius now, as a means of, I guess, granting him the internal authority to proceed as he wishes.
	Anyway, so here we have this story about how man of steel mentality may get guys in trouble, but it also helps them heal faster.
	The annual incidence of traumatic brain injuries in the U.S. is greater than of all cancers, writes the study author, and men account for three-quarters of such injuries.
	The number will increase if the Iraq war continues.
	But men who focused on their careers, success, power, and competition reported better relations in their community.
	The docile wusses, the pansies, the linguini spines were miserable.
	And they're always waiting for feedback.
	They're waiting for approval to make them feel good about themselves because they don't have the innate ability to do it within themselves.
	And men who focused on their careers and their success and their power, the man of steel mentality participants showed greater improvement a year after their hospitalization.
	The immediate message here is to encourage psychotherapy along with traditional methods of healing.
	Therapists trying to help men recover from serious injuries could encourage men's masculine tendency to seek success, but discourage them from believing it's appropriate to exert power over women.
	And so I don't know what that is all about.
	How to drag that in there.
	But anyway, just another one of these clichés that may be willing to fall by the wayside, which of course takes us to the Brett Girl.
	CNN, very disturbed that there are assaults on the manliness of the Brett girl that are taking place out there.
	Carol Costello with this report Friday on the Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer.
	It's sad how much looks play a part in this election.
	As for John Edwards, there is an orchestrated campaign.
	The politics of pretty is getting ugly.
	Now that he's front and center and looking fabulous in a laid-back gap kind of way, it's paved the way for his political enemies to brand him the equivalent of a dumb blonde.
	Take a peek at Rush Limbaugh's website.
	Edwards appears in a wig, and Limbaugh often refers to him in feminine terms.
	Also, we've decided any further John Edwards news, we will use this tune as an official update theme for the Brett Girl.
	I am a woman who hear me roll in numbers too big to ignore.
	Are you listening, Ann Coulter?
	All of this climax with Neil Kahn and Coulter's now infamous Edwards slur.
	Some say it was meant to further feminize Edwards, to make him appear weak.
	As for why neocons would pick on John Edwards, well, one pundit says, some believe Edwards is the guy who will eventually move to the head of the pack, and this is the strategy they're using to cut him down early.
	Others told me it was just mean-spirited fun.
	That is a pathetic report.
	In the first place, we don't use Helen Reddy, Carol.
	We use the Brett girl singing the song.
	I'll let you hear it in just a, we've been calling him the Brett girl since 1984, where, or 2004, where have you been?
	And it was a woman who referred to him as potentially the first female president.
	It was Kate Michaelman who said of all the men out there, John Edwards has the most ability, the greatest ability to get in touch with women.
	He's, for some reason, understands them better.
	And of course, this led to the claim, just like Bill Clinton is the first black president, that the Brett girl could be the first female president.
	Hey, we're just reacting here to what Democrats are saying out there.
	Well, we did invent the Brett girl.
	Take off on the hair.
	Now, Carol Costello, somebody call her up.
	Tell her next time she does this report, this is the tune to use.
	This is the official John Edwards Brett Girl update.
	All right, there you have it.
	A little bit of I am woman.
	That's Paul Shanklin, the vocal portrayal there impersonating the Brett girl.
	How about the opening line of Carol Costello's story?
	It's sad how much looks play a part in this election.
	As for John Edwards, it's an orchestrated campaign.
	There may be an orchestrated campaign out there, Carol, but we're not part of anything that's orchestrated here.
	We are the leaders.
	And if there are followers, more power to us.
	Quick timeout.
	Hey, right back.
	Stay with us.
	That's right, ladies and gentlemen, redefining hip on the radio.
	The Airbus A380 just now landing at Los Angeles.
	What an airplane.
	The Airbus A380 landed earlier today in New York at JFK.
	They got two test models that are out there flying.
	They lost billions of dollars, Airbus did, with delays getting this airplane online.
	No, I'm not going to get an Airbus.
	The problem with getting an Airbus plane that big is you have to go to commercial airports.
	You get stuck in ice, weather, snow.
	No, no, no, no.
	You don't want to fly one of those unless you have to.
	Let's see.
	I just saw something on CNN, and it just, I mean, I laughed about it, but it burns me.
	You know, the phony polar bear picture?
	It's out there with a polar bear supposedly on a melting glacier with nowhere to go.
	It's out there in the middle of the Arctic Ocean, nowhere for them to go.
	It's a hoax picture.
	It's phony.
	It's an ice flow created by the waves.
	The polar bears are out there playing around.
	They can get off of it.
	They can get on it.
	They can go wherever they want.
	They're not stranded.
	I just saw a fundraising ad for the Natural Resources Defense Council with the two polar bears on that ice flow.
	And as the commercial, the video proceeds, the ice flow melts into the letters SOS with the two polar bears on top of the SOS.
	And I predict, you know, little children will see that.
	Mommy, mommy, mommy, the polar bears, the ice flow's almost gone.
	They're going to die.
	What can we do?
	What can we do?
	These creeps.
	Also, it's breaking news here from ABCNews.com.
	Waleed Mohammed bin Attash has confessed to the bombing of the USS Cole in 2000, killed 17 U.S. sailors.
	Don't know if he was at Club Gitmo, but regardless, more fodder for the libs here as they can ramp up this torture talk that they think plays with the American people.
	You know, to give you an idea, if you instinctively think there are two Americas out there, and this is a country that is unlike it's been in 100 years, here we are.
	We are at war, and we have a war on terror going on.
	And here we had Khalik, our Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, admit to planning and being the mastermind of 9-11 and a number of other terrorist acts.
	He may have been excessive, may have been taking the credit for some he didn't get credit for, didn't actually do.
	Either he's got an ego problem or he's trying to shield his buddies from further pursuit of prosecution.
	But regardless, isn't it strange that we're talking 9-11?
	Forget all the other things.
	Forget the 93 World Trade Center.
	Just put 9-11 in your mind.
	Isn't it strange that that news was not greeted with any appreciation or celebration?
	It was greeted with utter contempt.
	It was greeted by the drive-by media with utter suspicion.
	Was he tortured?
	I'm telling you, folks, the people on the left in this country own defeat and they are deathly afraid of any good news because they can't participate in it.
	They have gone so far out now in the concept of owning defeat that they can't afford good news.
	They can't afford victory.
	They can't afford anything like that.
	So even the good news, even this, even in this is, I don't know, commensurate, comparable to if somebody captured Hitler or somebody had captured the people from Japan who ordered the bombing of Pearl Harbor.
	It would have been celebration.
	There would have been great pride.
	It would have been a sense of achievement and accomplishment.
	There was none of that.
	Everybody in this country is so beaten down on this that it had no impact.
	And this is not a comment just on the drive-bys.
	This is a comment on the people.
	Our population, so beaten down by negative news about this, that I'll predict to you that if the surge ultimately is victorious and if Baghdad is someday rendered peaceful, that will not be big news either.
	It'll be clouded by how long it took, how many deaths were necessary to secure it.
	No big deal.
	Could have been done sooner.
	Shouldn't have been done in the first place.
	Blah, blah, blah, blah.
	But now the guy who pulled down, this is a big story too, the guy who, along with the Americans, pulled down the Saddam statue, he's apologizing, saying he might have made a mistake.
	Drive-by's found this guy.
	I don't know where he is, but he's saying, yeah, it might have been a mistake.
	I don't know.
	We might not be better off today than we are than we're then.
	So anyway, we'll wait to find.
	I don't know if this guy, Waleed Mohamed bin Atash, was at the Club Gitlo, but wherever he was, I'm sure he was tortured, will be the news.
	Here now, Al Sharpton, the Reverend Sharpton, at a press conference today, responding to the three detectives who've been indicted in the Sean Bell shooting.
	Listen carefully.
	As we listen to the announcement of the district attorney, it falls short of what we would want.
	Clearly, in our judgment, all five officers should have been shot, should have been charged.
	Let me be clear.
	All five officers shot.
	All five officers shot.
	We do not endorse their being shot.
	Why didn't you say charged the next three times instead of all five officers being shot?
	The reason two of them weren't charged, I think they were auxiliary cops.
	They were unarmed.
	I think the auxiliary cops didn't have any weapons.
	But anyway, that's the Reverend Sharpton with the faux pas, the slip of the tongue.
	In our judgment, all five officers should have been shot.
	The Reverend Sharpton's still hanging out when he's not following the story outside campaign headquarters of Barack Obama.
	The Reverend Sharpton clearly upset that Obama.
	By the way, there's a fascinating story in the LA Times today, which, yeah, get this headline.
	Who wrote this?
	David Ahrenstein is his name, LA-based, writes about Hollywood and politics.
	The headline of his column, Obama the Magic Negro.
	Kid you not.
	As every carbon-based life form on this planet surely knows, Barack Obama is running for president.
	Since making his announcement, there's been no end of commentary about him in all quarters, musing over his charisma and the prospect he offers of being the first black president in the country.
	But it's clear that Obama also is running for an equally important unelected office in the province of the popular imagination, the magic Negro.
	The magic Negro is a figure of postmodern folk culture, coined by a snarky 20th century sociologist to explain a cultural figure who emerged in the wake of Brown versus Board of Education.
	He has no past.
	He simply appears one day to help the white protagonist reach the description on Wikipedia of the Magic Negro.
	Well, he's there to assuage white guilt over the role of slavery and racial segregation in American history while replacing stereotypes of a danger, dangerous, highly sexualized black man with a benign figure for whom interracial sex congress holds no interest.
	The problem is that Aaron Ehrenstein says, he's not real.
	Al Sharpton's real.
	Snoop Dogg is real.
	But Barack Obama is not real.
	He's just there to assuage white guilt.
	In other words, the only reason Obama is anywhere is because whites are willing to support him because they feel so guilty over slavery.
	Now, before you reject this, Shelby Steele has written a great book about the whole concept of white guilt and how it is allowing our society to become more and more passive about any number of transgressions that the country has made from its inception.
	Here's the clause.
	Like a comic book superhero, Obama is there to help out of the sheer goodness of a heart we need not know or understand.
	For as with all magic Negroes, the less real he becomes and seems, the more desirable he gets.
	If he were real, white America couldn't project all its fantasies of curative black benevolence on him.
	So those of you white people out there who are supporting Barack Obama, you are racists.
	That is the point that David Ehrenstein's made.
	So your attempt to assuage all of your white guilt by supporting Obama is worthless because you're just exhibiting racism because you know he's not a real black.
	As Biden said, he's clean and articulate.
	What else did he say?
	Clean.
	Yeah, clean, good-looking, articulate, one of the first.
	But he's not real.
	This is more of the drivel and the bilge that we get from the drive-by media.
	In order to be a real black, you got to be a Sharpton.
	You got to be a Snoop Dogg.
	You got to be a ludicrous or something like that.
	Obama can't possibly fill this role because nobody knows anything about him.
	And we don't want to know anything about him.
	The only thing that matters is he's black and he sounds good.
	And it allows you white racists to assuage your guilt.
	Now, there is white racism out there.
	Much of it's on the left where the plantitian mentality still resides.
	Now, let me ask you a question.
	The term magic Negro has been thrown into the political presidential race and the mix for 2008.
	And the term magic Negro, as applied to Barack Obama, has been done by an L.A. Times columnist, David Ehrenstein.
	What do you think if I keep referring to Obama as the magic Negro from this day on, I will eventually get the credit and or heat for this?
	Magic Negro.
	It is a term, and it's exactly as described here.
	Its purpose is to allow whites the guilt-free support, but in Barack's case, it's only because he isn't a real black.
	And the L.A. Times, by the way, this is not the first of these types of columns.
	The LA Times have been two or three columns like this.
	Is Barack Obama black enough?
	So forth.
	So there's a racist component out there, the editorial page of the L.A. Times that's obsessed with the race of Barack Obama and is with all leftists, while they are obsessed with race, accusing everybody else of being racists.
	Be right back.
	You know, you stop and think about it.
	This piece by David Ehrenstein, the L.A. Times today, Obama the Magic Negro, it's just infuriating.
	It is the left that continues to besmirch these people.
	It's the left that continues to question their so-called authenticity.
	These people are all human beings.
	I think if it's Sharpton, Reverend Jackson, these people are all human beings.
	Some of them are in the race business.
	I understand that.
	But look at who it is that keeps focusing on whether they're authentic enough, authenticity based on skin color.
	Who isn't doing this?
	It's the left.
	You know what?
	I got a suggestion for those of you at the L.A. Times.
	Let's cut to the chase.
	Go get an old-fashioned auction block and put it in a town square, put it somewhere where it looks like it's real, and just bring all these black people up there and auction them off and find out who it is that sells for the highest price.
	That's essentially what you're doing with all of these nonsensical categorizations.
	Obama's not black enough.
	Obama doesn't have, he's not down for the struggle.
	Obama doesn't have a legitimate civil rights right background.
	Obama's ears don't look like a black person.
	His ears are too big.
	Obama doesn't sound like a black person.
	He's cleaning our tickets.
	The left saying all these things.
	Now he's the magic negro, which is a convenient trick for the L.A. Times to blame a bunch of white people for being racist.
	Well, okay, let's find out who they're.
	Just get an auction block and grab as many blacks as you want to put them up there and let's start the sales, L.A. Times, and let's see who it is that fetches the highest price.
	Isn't that essentially the way they're approaching this?
	These are commodities.
	These human beings are simply commodities, and they are there for some purpose other than their own human existence.
	You doubt the racism and the groupthink and the superiority of the leftists in this country.
	You'll be making a grave error.
	All right.
	To the phones we go.
	Michael in Palm Bay, Florida.
	Michael, nice to have you on the EIB network.
	Hello, sir.
	Thank you very much for having me, Rush.
	First of all, I would like to say that I will not assuage my white guilt by going for Obama.
	I'll do it by going for the Limbaugh Coulter ticket.
	That's an excellent suggestion, sir.
	Thank you.
	Well, my point is about this Clinton that might be from Obama, may not be from Obama commercial that's going on.
	Yeah, on YouTube, yeah.
	Yeah.
	If you go to YouTube and look under Futurama, you'll find one that's titled the Mom 1984 Ripoff Commercials.
	That entire commercial is a rip-off from the show Futurama that plays on Adult Swim every weeknight.
	Well, yes, but it's also a direct rip-off of an Apple commercial from 1984.
	Which helps, which explains the transition because at the end, it's Plan X and not FedEx, just like it's Obama and not Apple.
	It's totally targeted to the 18 to 24, speaking in that age range.
	It's totally targeted.
	Are you in that age range?
	Yes, sir, I am.
	I'm 24 years old.
	All right.
	What is it about the Internet that I know you don't have a hard age rage here demo of 1824?
	What is it about the Internet that makes it or makes this particular spot the Internet targeted 18 to 24-year-olds?
	It's not the fact that necessarily it's on the internet.
	It's the fact that it's getting all the news coverage that it's getting, and the show is totally.
	Remember a few weeks back with that Boston thing, the bombs that were supposedly in Boston, they were all these characters from this adult swim show called Aqua Teen Hunger Force.
	Oh, yeah, It's on in the same, just about the same time block.
	It's all targeted to the 18s to 24s, and it's just one of those association things that somebody of my age may make and be like, hey, well, I'm for Obama.
	Well, you know, no, actually, whoever did this, it's brilliantly done.
	It is very well done.
	And look, here it is on the internet, and all of a sudden it spread to the mainstream.
	I mean, I've seen the news networks today playing excerpts of the video.
	You got the lady running in and throwing the sledgehammer in Hillary or mom, right?
	Which is, I think.
	If I would have done the ad, I would have put some different stuff up about Hillary.
	I would have had her comments up there about wanting to take Exxon's profits, for example.
	There are any number of things other than her clichés.
	And one of the things that leads me to believe that a Democrat did this is that they're going after her clichés and not her substance.
	Because if somebody had gone after her substance, like I'm going to, I just want to take Exxon's profits or any of her other very leftist policy statements.
	Being for the war against this.
	Yeah, whatever.
	You can say, well, maybe a Republican organization did this.
	But the fact that a Democrat or a leftist did this is it's still, you know, there has been a push ever since I've been alive to get the youth vote.
	Candidates, they've tried MTV, rock the vote, and all these things, and they get a lot of registrations, but they don't show up.
	That's why you need to be back on TV, Rush, because you caught me back way when I was young, and I've been listening to you ever since.
	You're a Rush baby.
	Not by birth, but by choice.
	Yes, sir.
	I'm a rush baby.
	Well, the point is, let me ask you, will the internet succeed in reaching these 18 to 24-year-olds who, because they've got other things in their mind, obviously, have no interest in politics?
	I think it'll get their vote just because so many.
	I look at people my age, Rush, and they believe that I'm an idiot because I don't believe that global warming caused by man is a problem.
	We know that most 18 to 24-year-olds are still skulls full of mushroom.
	We understand that.
	And we know that the ones that you would know have their minds have been flaked and formed by academia and so forth.
	But that's where I think the internet is going to have a dramatic effect on reaching that age group, which is why it's going to be fascinating to watch the kind of stuff that ends up there and hell.
	So you're going to see more candidates putting their commercials up there as opposed to broadcast TV to avoid all the expense, too.
	All right, folks, quick time out here.
	Going to take a gander, a couple more pictures of Valerie Plam, and then we'll be back and be ready for the start of the next hour here at the EIB Network.
	Don't go away.
