Time Text
And welcome back, music lovers, thrill seekers, conversationalists all across the fruited plain.
Rush Limbaugh, it's Open Line Friday special edition.
Live from the Southern Command in sunny South Florida.
It's Open Line Friday.
As I say, special edition of Open Line Friday today.
It is our annual cure-a-thon.
We do this one day a year.
We raise money to cure leukemia and lymphoma and the blood cancers.
And I want to thank all the people who sent emails.
It's mixed emotions.
Because I'm getting a lot of emails from people who have recently been diagnosed or were some years ago who just want to say thanks to every one of you in the audience.
And of course to me, but you are the more important here in helping to find cures, increase survivability rates.
It's hell going to the doctor and getting a diagnosis of any type of cancer.
What we're dealing here today is with leukemia and lymphoma.
And the telephone number, if you want to donate by phone, is 877-379-8888.
Or believe me, the simplest way, and it's safe, you have to sweat it, is go to my website, www.rushlimbaugh.com.
And you can be done with it there.
Just one click, go in there, make the donation.
Credit cards are accepted and they're safe.
You're not going to be bombarded with any solicitations after you do this.
No other charities will get this information.
They take Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and the Discover card, the online donation page.
It's safe, it's secured.
It's the easiest and it's the most efficient way to donate.
And nobody has to send you anything as if you call the number.
If you want to call the phone number, you can if you don't use the computer.
And if you don't, if you don't trust the internet yet, feel free to use the phone, 877-379-8888.
But believe me, the website, rushlimbaugh.com, is the fastest way to go.
We've got one hour.
Well, actually, no, we got more than that, but we got one hour to hype it, as we say.
The phone number and the website will be active all weekend long if you're thinking about this.
And by the way, you know, we've got the premiums here.
$60 premium for, well, for that, you get a t-shirt, a one-size-fits-all t-shirt, suitable for sleeping, and $300, you know, a camel-colored golf shirt, EIB logo right here on the left front, and my signature on the left sleeve, left sleeve.
Yes, I was getting there, left sleeve.
But you don't have to give $60 or $300.
Look at the number of people we have in this audience.
Everybody just gave a dollar.
We would set a record.
And a dollar, even with the Euro these days and the strength it has against it, you could afford a dollar.
So don't be embarrassed if you don't have 60 or 300.
I always get worried when we mention those two figures because people think that they have to get at least 60, give 60 for it to matter.
And that's not the case at all.
Remember, we're dealing in volume here.
There are millions and millions of you out there.
And any amount, believe me, there's no judgmentalism in this.
It's not like being polled by a pollster and you think you've got to give them the right answer and they're going to think you're a nut.
That's not applicable here.
Any amount of money that you have spare that you can donate to this cause will be as appreciated as anything else because it's all going to add up.
There are five blood cancers here that are being worked on.
Well, leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease, and myeloma is actually four.
And the survivability rate for all of them is skyrocketing.
A story today in the Washington Post, traffic deaths, the number one killer.
They leave abortion out of this.
Abortion would have to be in the top 10.
It would be number one.
Traffic deaths around the world are the leading cause of death worldwide.
But right there at number 10 is leukemia, which is what we're working on today to raise money to try to speed the cure and expand survivability rates for people who are diagnosed.
And the survivability rates are increasing.
As I mentioned, I keep hyping this because I didn't know this until we got ready to do this this year.
Bone marrow transplants were pioneered.
I knew that.
Bone marrow transplants pioneered by the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
But bone marrow transplants are in fact adult stem cell transplants.
And all these years, this is our 17th year, all these years, we've been supporting the only stem cell therapy to date that not only shows promise, but has worked.
Fashion that.
Nothing against any other stem cell treatment, but this works.
The bone marrow transplant is actually a stem cell, adult stem cell transplant.
And it's showing more and more promise each and every year.
They're now getting research started on taking bone marrow from somebody who is not identical to the patient and making that work.
And that is all because of the money that you have come across with.
And it's a moving thing.
As I said, I've been with this 17th year, and all the people that I've been working with have been with Leukemia Lymphoma Society for all those 17 years.
It's the same group of people we work with every year.
And they're involved because they're committed.
Not just a job to them.
They've all been affected by it somehow, either themselves or a family member or what have you.
Leukemia, by the way, if you're just talking about it, it's number 10 worldwide.
It's the number one cancer killer of children, people under the age of 20.
Yet, because of research and the donations that you've come across with, the most common form of childhood leukemia has an overall survival rate today of 87%.
Now, I mentioned last hour, and I was talking to Mr. Snurdley about this during the break, because I was asking him how he thought the mix went, it's tough to do this every year.
Well, it's not tough.
I mean, it's a struggle to come up with the mix because we don't go wall to wall on the fundraising.
We still mix in regular program content with the fundraising.
We try to come to an accurate balance or a good balance of both because it's important that you, the people in the audience, hang on through all of this and everybody listening gets some of what they want today in the process of doing the good work.
It's a great day for this to happen too, because of so much of the tumult and chaos that the country has been subjected to all week long and even last week leading up to this.
This is a nice time out to take a breather, do something productive, do something for a lot of people.
I hear the phrase, well, people want to make a difference.
I want to make the world a better place.
This is a real way to do that.
This is a totally substantive way to make a difference and do something that will help people.
You'll never meet them, but believe me, you'll have their gratitude.
Their kids get diagnosed with this.
They get diagnosed with it.
Most people feel like it's a death sentence, and it's not a death sentence anymore.
It's not quite that severe because of the donations that you've made over these years that has enabled all the research.
So again, 877-379-8888.
That phone number be operative all weekend and rushlimbaugh.com.
And that, again, the most efficient and sensible, easy way to do it.
Brief timeout.
We'll come back and continue.
Get to your phone calls on Openline Friday right after this.
877-379-8888 to cure lymphoma and leukemia or rushlimbaugh.com.
You can donate there as well.
Now, look, I have a story here from the Washington Post today that epitomizes drive-by media.
Headline, baby boomers appear to be less healthy than parents.
Here's the pull quote.
People are working two jobs.
They're not sleeping as much.
They're experiencing more job insecurity.
They have less time to take care of themselves.
They're more socially isolated, said Lisa Berkman of the Harvard School of Public Health.
This could all add up to a huge crisis and really calls for us to examine the things that perhaps we're not doing so well.
Now, this is absolute poppycock.
The life expenses.
I am far healthier than my parents.
I mean, this is people working two jobs not sleeping as much.
They're experiencing more jobs.
This is just a testimonial of baby boomers and their narcissism and their self-focus.
And everybody is me, I mean, this is classic.
Baby boomers appear to be less healthy than parents.
Take a look at the statistics that we shared with you today on the success of these blood cancer diseases.
And this is happening in a lot of medical research.
Work two jobs.
Well, lower taxes or get rid of feminism for crying out loud.
Well, I mean, this is, we got a crisis.
We're going to have a crisis.
This could all add up to a huge crowd.
If they're right, then the baby boomer is going to die off soon and put less pressure on Social Security.
It'll be better off for their kids.
There's always a positive side to everything.
To the phones, Ned, Corpus Christi, Texas.
Welcome to the EIB Network, sir.
Hello.
Hello, sir.
This is Ned down by Rockport, which is just a few miles from Corpus.
Been listening to you since about 1991.
Thank you.
Got a request.
I've got $200 as a retired Army guy that I'll throw in the fund if you'll play two of the parodies.
First one being Barbara Boxer get your thong on.
And the second, Ted Kennedy Tried to Say Barack Obama never does.
You will donate $200 if I play one of them?
Both of them.
Oh, you're driving a hard bargain here.
No, sir, not really.
Just retired Army trying to hear some fun and levity.
Past week's horrific event.
I'll tell you what.
That's very big of you.
That's a very creative way of increasing the pile that we are raising here.
So I'll tell you what I'm going to do.
You're a retired Army guy.
Yes, sir.
And we on this program have love, admiration, respect for all of you Army guys, Navy, Marines, Air Force, doesn't matter, retired or current.
So we're going to play both parodies.
We'll take your 200 bucks.
We thank you so much for it.
But I'm going to add $10,000 to my total in honor of you here.
I've got a grandson that's remitted from it.
You have a grandson that is.
Remitted from leukemia.
Congratulations.
Yes, sir.
Great.
Great news in the family.
I can imagine.
I can imagine.
We had a guy call Earl the first hour from Texas also.
Where's Troy, Texas, by the way?
That's where he was calling from.
I don't know.
I'm not familiar.
Texas is pretty damn big, but I don't know.
It's bigger than half the countries in the world.
That's true.
So at any rate, he didn't have any money this year.
He donates everything.
He didn't have any money, but he was going to put his name on the bone marrow transplant list.
So I donated $10,000 for him, and he'll get the shirt, yes.
And I'm going to add $10,000 in your name, too, since you're going to take $200 from your retirement fund to do this.
Dr. Rush.
You bet.
All right, here comes.
What does that put me up to?
That puts me up to $320,000.
Because I never ask people to do things that I don't do.
So for Ned in, well, he's near Corpus, wherever he said he is.
Here are the two parodies in order that he wanted to hear.
Barbara Boxer Thong parody.
All right.
Now, the second one he requested is the Ted Kennedy Obama name mess up.
I want to set this one up because after we played this, the Drive-By Media going to Media Matters, whatever, that website, the front organization for the Clinton campaign, bought and paid for by George Soros and the Clinton people, Media Matters for America, which takes everything that we say here out of context, puts it up there.
They are the supply source for the Drive-By Media, what is said on this program and a number of others.
The Drive-Bys don't actually listen to this program.
And so we played this business of Ted Kennedy, and afterwards, word spread like wildfire through the Democrat blogs that I was calling Obama Osama, Barack Osama.
And it was never I who did it.
It was Senator Kennedy.
Now, that was a parody because Senator Kennedy at the National Press Club was asked about Obama and said, well, we need to ask Osama about that.
It was Ted Kennedy that first called Barack Obama Osama and even said bin Laden and caught himself, started laughing about it.
We parodied it.
And so anyway, there are the two requests for Ned, who was in Lockport, which is near Corpus Christi.
Barbara in Chicago.
Great to have you next on the EIB network.
Hello.
Help, help, help.
I wish I could put you in my pocket and take you with me Sunday.
I'm going to see an inconvenient truth, which is being given at a library.
If you be patient, I might fit in your pocket before too long.
And there'll be a discussion after.
And I really want what salient parts can I address.
My first point would be: don't, Agosi, but since you're going, why are you going to see it?
This I must know.
Oh, well, one, I haven't seen it, and I talk against it so much from what I hear, and I feel that, you know, I really should see it and get more aggravated.
And I want to, these are upscale, very intelligent in quote community.
And I, I, I, you know, when they had a Michael Moore last year or a few years ago, right away, it should go to the high schools and it should, you know, they hook line and sinker for it.
Oh, God, you're ruining my day.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Michael Moore.
Well, look, here's the thing: there's their number of tricks in this movie.
And keep in mind, they're playing this for school kids all over the place, and it's pure propaganda.
I know.
The graphics are slick, and the audience is fawning.
And so it appears to be just right down the middle factual.
One thing to look out for, they make a big deal in the movie about polar bears and how their ice glaciers are melting.
And they come up with a computer-generated graphic of stranded polar bears on the ice to illustrate this.
And this has got little kids all over the country scared to death.
We're killing the bears.
We're killing animals.
Their parents are because they're not doing enough about global warming.
I think you need to take a general approach with people after this and just say something like, Do you really believe this?
And make them explain why they believe it rather than and then and then when they tell you what they tell you, your education and information on this will allow you to refute what they say.
You may not even discuss what's in the movie.
Some of them are going to say, well, the movie said that.
Why do you believe that?
Well, I'm not leading the discussion.
I'm just going to be one of the viewers.
Here, hang on.
I've got to take a quick break here.
Hang on.
Go into more of this when we come back.
Stay with us.
And we're back, and we're back with Barbara in Chicago, Illinois, on Open Line Friday.
Barbara, I want to understand: you're going to go see this thing.
You're going to go see Gore's movie.
Are you going to participate in a discussion group after it?
Well, we're just a group of people from the community.
And so somebody leads the discussion, and we all talk as we want to.
So I want to wait after they've all said their two cents.
I want to put in mine as far as the other side of the story.
All right.
Here's, look, this is the simplest thing to do.
My guess is, based on other people, the stories I've heard of other people watching the movie, they're going to go, ha, oh, no.
And they're going to believe it.
They're going to think this is, this is, we've got a crisis here.
Point out that the polar bear thing is a graphic.
It's made up.
That there's no truth.
There are not melting glaciers, and polar bears are not stranded.
Is it true that this was taken?
The picture was taken by a boy in Canada in the middle.
That picture's not in this.
They do a computer graphic of a similar picture, but that picture was taken by a woman reporter who accurately captioned it as an ice flow that was made by waves.
It was an environmentalist who got hold of the picture, put it out two years after it was taken with a different caption that led people to believe these two bears were stranded on a melting glacier and had nowhere to go and they were going to die.
It was all BS.
But here's the thing: you can say, for all of you who believe this, can we look at Mr. Gore and ask if he's offering leadership?
He's got something on his property.
There's a mine, mine shaft in his property in Nashville that is a huge polluting thing.
Number two, he has not reduced his use of energy at all.
He's out using this carbon credit scam to not reduce.
This movie asks everybody to reduce their usage.
Everybody's supposed to reduce their carbon footprint.
Everybody is supposed to make do with less.
He is not.
You can factually and honestly tell them and remind them it was all in the news, how big his electric bill is, how big his gas bill is in his little mansion there outside of Nashville.
And he says, well, that's okay because I'm not buying carbon credits.
In other words, he's investing in a company he owns that's supposedly planting trees or some such thing to make up for all of the carbon and CO2 that his mansion, his property puts out.
He's not doing in his own life what his movie advocates.
But, you know, it's going to be tough.
I just want to warn you going in because these people are going to watch it as sponges.
Everybody likes being scared.
Everybody thinks that we're in a doom and gloom period anyway.
So just follow your instincts on this, and you'll get through it just fine.
Well, the gas is in the ozone.
I don't know how to answer that.
There is more.
What do you mean the gas is in the ozone?
You know, the ozone is, there's more.
What am I trying to say?
You say there's less ozone.
There's an ozone hole?
Right, right.
There's not.
The ozone hole is a natural phenomenon.
It opens and closes.
Ozone's made by the sun.
Right.
And it's really the sun we should look to that's causing all this.
Right, exactly.
The sun's the primary.
The sun is the source of all life.
It's the source of all energy.
We'd have to put the sun out.
We'd have to get rid of ozone, and that can't happen.
This is all.
They're saying that the gases we emit, you know, cause the difficulty with the old.
Well, just tell them that volcanoes put more pollutants in the air than all the automobile traffic since it was invented.
Oh, this is good.
Okay.
But you're not going to persuade them with this.
The thing to tell them is, you people are, is this your new religion?
You're going to adopt this as your mistake.
Just ask them to start thinking about the complexity of their planet.
Ask them if they really think that all of these steps they're supposed to take, like new light bulbs and driving Priuses, they really think if they could be in a space shuttle orbiting the Earth, they really think that that is going to make it.
We're too vain.
We don't have the power to create or destroy this, no matter what they think.
And people just need to be commonsensical about this.
But it's going to be a challenge for you because people will, they naturally gravitate to this kind of apocalyptic forecast.
The religion aspects of it are that I tell you what, if you really want to have a Donny Brook, tell them this is nothing but pure liberalism.
They're trying to make everybody who watches the movie feel guilty and accept the blame for quote-unquote destroying the planet.
And the reason for that is so to assuage that guilt and that sin, they'll sit back and allow bigger government and more taxes and restrictions on freedom and lifestyles, which is liberalism.
That is liberalism.
And this is just the latest campaign of the liberals to get what they want.
And it's the latest campaign of the world to get all of their hands in our back pockets.
We feed the world, we clothe the world, we clean the world.
We're being blamed.
All of it's BS.
It's 100% BS.
Thanks for the call, Barbara.
I appreciate it.
Here again, folks, the numbers, we're running out of time.
To make a difference, to make it count, to cure leukemia and lymphoma, 877-379-8888.
Or the simple, efficient way, go to rushlimbaugh.com.
The phone number and the website, both accepting donations all weekend long.
But the thrust, of course, is occurring here during these three hours as it does once every year.
We're running ahead of last year.
I sometimes cringe in telling you that because some people say, well, great, we're running ahead.
I can back.
I don't have to contribute.
It doesn't matter.
Five bucks, one buck, $10.
It really, it all adds up and it all matters.
Here's Diane in Westland, Oregon.
You're next.
Great to have you with us.
Hey, great to be on the ⁇ I'm with you.
I am calling because last Barbara called and she said she's choosing to go see this Inconvenient Truth.
I have a seventh grader in public school who's being, that's being shown in his science class.
So my question to you, and he wants to skip school that day.
He doesn't want to go.
So I'm wondering your advice, what I should say to him.
Should I say something to the school?
Here's what I would do.
There are parents in the UK who are demanding the schools not show it.
The same thing's happening there.
In the state of Washington, some parents rebelled because both sides are not being presented.
Here in Florida, it's even worse, Diane.
There's a school system here that demanded all of the kids see it, and they were told, the parents were told they had to come watch it too, or their kids would suffer grade consequences.
Now, it's just pure politics.
You've got precedent out there in many other parts of the country.
I'd go to the school and say, I don't want my kid watching this.
This is not education.
This is a political issue, and you are not presenting both sides of it.
And until you present both sides of it, I don't want my kids seeing it.
All righty.
It's just hard to believe.
And even my fourth grader came home with a global warming worksheet he had to do.
Global warming worksheet.
I know.
This is an indoctrination that's happening out there with this.
Young people are impressionable.
You tell them that the polar bears are dying, and they start crying and having nightmares.
Yeah, he came home with the picture of the polar bear on the ice.
And that's a total hoax picture, Diane.
I learned that from you.
Yes.
And in fact, I'll tell you what, we'll have Coco put that whole thing back up on the website today so you don't have to search for it and find it.
That'd be great.
And in fact, we'll put a whole little global warming segment on the website this weekend so that you and the woman in Chicago can get it.
That's the best thing to do.
Just research the encyclopedia that's my website, and you'll be armed for battle no matter who you run up against.
Well, that's what you're great for.
I appreciate it.
Well, many other things too, but I'll accept that.
And thank you for what you're doing for the curathon.
Well, thank you.
Thanks very much.
I appreciate it, Diane.
Andrew in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Hello.
Rush, thanks for having me on.
Yes.
Rush, the question I've always wanted to ask you is, where did you come up with the name Rio Linda?
I didn't come up with it.
The place actually exists.
It does?
Yeah, it's in Sacramento.
I don't want to insult Sacramento by calling it a suburb, but I mean, that's the best way to describe it.
When I moved to Sacramento in 1984, you struggling young media personality, you drive around town getting to know the community, trying to learn about it, where things are, so that even on your first day on the radio, you can sound educated and informed.
And I'm driving out by one of the Air Force bases.
I think it's McClellan.
McClellan or Mather.
Anyway, I'm driving out there and I ended up on a road that had one of these green signs that donates city limits, and it said Rio Linda.
And there was no number on it indicating how many people lived there.
So I thought, well, that's interesting.
Maybe the residents won't admit it.
So I drove through town, and through the main drag, I saw the most incredible sights.
I saw houses right off the main drag, two-lane road, with some of them had two cars jacked up on concrete blocks in the front yard, washing machines on the front porch.
And I thought, oh, this is cool.
So I just, one of my little techniques back then was, you know, to make fun of local community now in a good-hearted and nice way.
And I offered to move there if they would rename the town Limbaugh, California.
I tried that in West Sacramento, too.
I failed in both places.
I was rejected in both places.
But when I say, for those of you in Rio Linda, I'm just trying to help them understand things that other people do.
They need a little work on.
But the place exists.
And it's actually, you know, I've had property values have skyrocketed out there since I have called attention to the place.
They've made some improvements.
Some of these houses now only have one car on concrete blocks in the front yard.
So they've shown progress.
This attention has helped them improve themselves.
All right.
Well, thank you, Rush.
All right.
Happy to explain.
That's a great Open Line Friday question.
Again, we're curing leukemia and lymphoma today, folks.
The four primary blood cancers, leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease, and myeloma.
There are tremendous success stories.
In fact, HR, could you, I want you to send the cheat sheet here that I'm using over to Coco so he can put that on the website this weekend, just the details of the progress that's been made on the donation page, because I think people that go there need to see the results of their contributions.
Even though I have total authority and credibility when I say it, people can read it and have it there, and it'll buttress their decision as to whether or not to contribute.
We're running ahead of last year, and we've set a record every year doing this.
I can't thank you all enough for the efforts that you're making.
And it's appreciated by one and all more than you know, particularly those who are diagnosed with one of these blood cancers.
It's a shock.
It's a life-changing thing.
You're diagnosed with any disease like this.
It's certainly also the case here.
And the level of appreciation that outpours in my email from these people is heartwarming.
And we've got about 10 minutes here left to hype this.
And I can do it only.
The best way to do it is continue to tell you how to make a donation in any amount.
Remember, we got $60.
I'll get you a one-size-fits-all t-shirt, $300, a custom golf shirt, whatever size you want.
But you don't have to give either of those amounts.
You can give more, you can give less.
Don't be embarrassed or shy if it's not $60.
Not necessary.
877-379-8888 or the website, rushlimbaugh.com.
We'll be right back and continue after this.
Hi, how are you?
Rush Limbaugh on Open Line Friday, special edition, a curathon, cure leukemia and lymphoma.
Go to rushlimbaugh.com to make a donation.
Secure credit card.
Nobody's going to solicit you, and nobody will ever know other than the leukemia and lymphoma society.
We just got a call.
This is for Diane out in Oregon.
Her kid was just being told that he's got to go see an inconvenient truth.
And this is great, Diane.
We've got a phone call from a parent who said, Look, my kid had to go do this, and the kids themselves have found a way to thwart the effort of the school to indoctrinate him on this.
A kid in his class took a universal remote in and kept changing the TV channel.
They've had a bunch of TV set up for him to watch it in class, and he just kept changing the TV channel to MTV or something else, or switching it off to a black screen when they didn't want to watch it.
And I don't know if the kid got caught or not, but it would be worth it.
He did not get caught.
They couldn't find out who had the universal.
Oh, the kid got away with it.
So that's probably the best piece of advice.
Have the kids take matters into their own hands and show that they're not going to be indoctrinated this way.
That's it.
Wait till the educators get a hold of me.
I'm just giving the advice I gave myself when I was classes I hated.
I found ways to disrupt them.
Well, I'm not going to waste time.
No, well, I tell you what I did in my shop class.
Oh, I've never admitted this.
Ooh.
No, I was a king of pranks, but our pranks back then were nothing compared to what goes on in schools today, obviously.
But oh, man, it was fun.
The kids can take matters into their own hands here.
Brandon in Carney, Nebraska, welcome to the EIB Network.
Hello.
Hey, Rush, make a ditto.
Thank you.
I was talking to your speaker about last night when you were talking about Reverend Charlton's saying that he's, you know, the group for the cross players, that the girls are being made to be strippers.
Well, I don't bounce her, my especially laws, escort service, and I bounce for her and about four of her girls.
And everyone that I've ever talked to, not one of them in the ACT, my favorite, made the strip.
They make real good money at doing what they do, and a lot of them like it.
And she, you know, runs a legitimate.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, hold it.
You've got a really bad phone.
You probably bought it at Walmart or something.
Just kidding.
I love Walmart.
Give me the, I'm having trouble understanding you.
Give me the basic story here.
Because I got a limited amount of time.
What's the basic story?
Um, you know, I'm a bouncer for, you know, several strippers.
And you're saying that, you know, Reverend Sharpen was saying that...
Oh, oh, oh, oh, okay.
Okay.
What you're saying is that strippers are not made to strip.
They choose to do it on their own.
Exactly.
Right.
Yeah, because okay, I know what he's saying because a lot of, like Terry Moran at ABC said, don't feel too sorry for the Dookies because they were still engaging in all this immoral behavior and there was still a lot of rotgut going along in that house, whether there was a rape or sexual assault or not.
And they had this poor woman come over and strip.
That's how she was earning her money, is his point, right?
They choose to do.
Yeah, and somebody else said, oh, he's saying, so they were not forced to strip.
That's what they were hired and paid to do.
Speaking of that, from the UK, lap dancers are going to have to pay a value-added tax on their earnings from customers.
A high court judge ruled yesterday.
Clubs where they perform are not liable for the value-added tax.
He upheld an appeal by Spearmint Rhino Ventures, which operates a chain of gentlemen's clubs.
So lap dancers are going to have to pay a poll tax.
The poll tax is back.
Poll taxes are back.
Look at Dawn.
I just, we start talking about these things that women do of their own accord.
She just looks away, can't look at any of us, and so forth.
I want to thank all of you for those of you who have donated and all of those who will donate to our curathon today for leukemia and lymphoma.
The phone number, 877-379-8888, website, rushlimbaugh.com, the donation page there will be operative, both the phone number and the donation page at the website all weekend long.
There aren't words to thank you.
One of the proudest elements of the history of this program has been our curathon for leukemia and lymphoma.
The generosity and graciousness of all of you in this audience who've contributed is stunning, heart-stopping, and near tear-jerking.
And everybody involved here, thanks you from the bottom of our hearts.
We'll be back and close out after this.
Have a good weekend, folks.
You've all earned it and deserved it, as have I, and I plan to.
So join me, and we'll be back Monday, revved up and ready to go.
