Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 podcast.
And welcome to the EIB network to the Rush Limbaugh program.
Uh Roger Hedgecock here on the Left Coast, coming at you from KOGO Kogo Radio in uh San Diego.
San Diego had a tough weekend last weekend.
Both the Dodgers and the Democrats were in town.
And uh we'll leave the Dodgers to the sports shows, but the Democrats um well, it was the first time that the California Democratic Party had had a major convention here.
They had previously uh not come to San Diego because there weren't enough union-controlled hotel rooms.
Can you imagine if the Republican Party said we're not going to convention anywhere uh unless there's enough evangelical-owned hotel rooms?
Uh but obviously the press uh just assumes now that the Democrats only go to union-controlled hotel rooms.
And there's no even breath of conflict or pandering to their base or any of that other stuff.
So anyway, they came to San Diego, found three hotels uh located within 96 miles uh of the uh convention center that they could assemble.
And they did.
In fact, we had some very interesting conversations with the Democrats who came to San Diego in this uh California Democratic Convention, where by the way, since our primary here in California has been moved up dramatically, I guess it's still February, something February 5th or something next year.
Uh now uh instead of just coming here to uh take money out of uh Hollywood and uh West LA, the uh uh Democrats were here to actually speak to people.
So uh but first uh we we ran into uh last uh week, ran into some interesting uh I've saved some of this uh for this show.
Some of the delegates here, for instance.
Well, I I I asked the question what's your agenda?
What do you want to accomplish here?
What are the things that are going to move America forward that you're in favor of here in San Diego in this important convention?
Here's what delegate Dave answered.
Indictment, impeachment, trial, and imprisonment of Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Colental, and Rice.
I I was waiting for the uh uh bring us all together, can't we all just get along?
Uh uh diversity is uh our strength.
I I was waiting for something other than uh uh just another rant by the lead singer from uh Rage Against the Machine, if you saw that down the Coachello Festival, uh tr what what was the phrase uh try burn and hang, something like that, uh uh George Bush.
So this is the tone now.
It is beyond angry, ladies and gentlemen, and I want to explore this today.
The tone of the Democratic Party is now basically gone from angry to fury.
But other things happened.
I want to get to that in a minute.
Other things happened that were interesting in this um in this convention.
As I say, all the presidential uh hopefuls, uh, the Democratic side were there.
And um Hillary uh Clinton, for instance, we didn't know it was a lot of mystery, a lot a lot of tension, a lot of uh suspense here in San Diego about which Hillary would show up.
Uh would it be this Hillary?
Uh would it be our Southern fried Hillary?
I don't feel no ways tired.
I'm too far from where I started.
Okay, okay, stop.
Uh would it be that Hillary or or you know, which one exactly?
Well, funny enough, here's uh what and and I thought this was a parody.
I actually thought this was a parody.
We had to verify this was Senator uh Mrs. uh Bill Clinton speaking.
When I was growing up, the neighborhoods I lived in were surrounded by farm fields.
And every harvest season we had a lot of the migrants who'd come up from Mexico through Texas following the harvest all the way up through Illinois and Michigan, and the children would go to school with us, and every Saturday morning my church group, we'd go out and babysit the younger children so that the older children could join their families in the fields.
What?
What did she just say?
Fifty years ago now I'm not in Illinois, so you folks who are in Michigan and so forth, I'd love to hear from you.
Fifty years ago were there uh illegal Mexican migrants coming into your community, uh working in the fields.
I mean, well I I'm sure there were there was more farmland in those days.
I mean that that part I I understand.
What kind of farmland are we talking about?
I mean, I thought it was like uh wheat and corn, and you know, what do I know?
I'm in California.
Uh we have out here strawberries, uh pears, peaches, avocados, what have you that need intensive labor.
I thought you guys mechanized your deal a long time ago, which of course we would have done too, except for the cheap illegals.
But uh this uh uh this thing about Illinois 50 years ago, and she's babysitting the younger children.
Now we've got a claim that Hilary Rodham in her early years, before her affiliation with Youth for Goldwater, was babysitting illegal kids.
Now, you know, this is the earliest example of exploitation of the illegals I've yet to find.
If true, uh babysitting the illegals' kids, taking money out of their paychecks that they would otherwise have sent to Mexico to prop up that corrupt government that they would that that Hillary found a way, much like she did of turning a thousand into a hundred thousand, you know.
She found a way to tap in to the illegals uh mut-I I again for our folks in the Midwest, uh if this is true, I'd love to hear about it.
It it it it strikes me as being the most fantasized, made up bunch of BS that I've ever heard.
Let's hear this tape again.
I want to I want to hear from again, the phone number, of course, is 800-282-2882 here on the Rush Limbaugh program.
Here is Hillary in San Diego last week.
Play it.
When I was growing up, the neighborhoods I lived in were surrounded by farm fields.
And every harvest season, we had a lot of the migrants who'd come up from Mexico through Texas following the harvest all the way up through Illinois and Michigan.
And the children would go to school with us, and every Saturday morning, my church group, we'd go out and babysit the younger children so that the older children could join their families in the fields.
In other words, she bab uh so much of this is so uh insane.
She babysitted the young kids so the older kids could violate the child labor laws by going into the fields.
And what is this about following the harvest?
I mean, I'm not I'm no farmer, but d don't the harvests start in the north and go south rather than in the south and go north?
I mean, the way the weather works, you know, or used to before your SUV uh got cranked up.
Uh it used to be that, you know, you were your shorter uh growing periods were in the north.
What do I know?
1-800-282-2882.
I'm sure I'm sure Hillary is uh is entirely correct.
Um interestingly enough as well, there were a lot of uh caucuses, and the typical thing, if you don't know this about the Democratic Party, uh is they are made up of a lot of little segmatized uh groups.
It is a groupthink party, and you're in your group.
You're defined as the LGBT.
That's not a sandwich, let me just tell you.
Well, it could be a sandwich.
Anyway, uh you're defined as uh, you know, a Latino, uh the black uh caucus, uh, and so forth and so on.
And all of these the environmental caucus, they all met in their separate little segregated uh uh pigeonholed uh I'm a uh slash slash slash kind of American.
I am a Latino LBGT uh no sandwich American.
So this is, you know, the way the Democrats organized themselves.
Uh the first motion made in the children's caucus was to have refreshments at the next meeting.
The second motion to have soft drinks with those refreshments.
The environmental caucus turned off the lights for one minute to save energy.
This actually this actually happened now in San Diego last weekend.
The Environmental Caucus met.
They turned off the lights in the room for a minute to save energy.
And then of course it took a minute more or more to finish the business they actually had to do once they turned the lights on.
But but it but it made them feel so much better.
Uh then there was the Progressives, the LGBT, and then the senior caucus, uh, which seemed to be talking uh a lot louder than the other caucuses.
I'm not sure exactly why.
The uh progressives, the reporters would not go to the Progressives Caucus.
There was a in and even, you know, and you know how this goes.
Ninety percent of the reporters are Democrats.
Even the reporters would not go to the Progressive Caucus for the aromatic issues in the room.
Apparently there wasn't sufficient ventilation for the I bathe uh once a month and use one square of toilet paper each time kind of person in the Progressive Caucus.
The business and professional caucus did meet.
Uh there was a professional looking easel there, a giant pad.
There were no people at the uh business and professional caucus.
Apparently that part of the Democratic Party actually has jobs.
They were actually not present during the work week.
Anyway, we had some uh we had some fun here in San Diego.
Uh one of the serious things that did happen, uh one of the serious things that did happen was the um naming of some people in uh California as co-uh chairs of the various uh candidates committees, you know, rounding up support and so forth.
And the uh 90 percent Democrat uh press here uh failed uh would not cover some of the more interesting ones, but I thought I'd share them with you.
Of course, where else are you gonna go for great information here on the Rush Limbaugh program on the EIB network?
Uh Hillary Clinton has hired Raul is a Giri.
Y-Z-A-G-U-I-R-R-E.
However you pronounce that, that's how you spell it.
He was for thirty years the president of an organization called the National Council of La Raza.
If you do not know, La Raza means the race.
The National Council of the Race is a racist, race-based organization advocating for uh Latinos.
It is consciously race-based.
They are anti-Semitic, they are anti-white, uh.
We're all uh European usurpers, they're all Indians of some kind, uh indigenous peoples, and so forth and so on.
They're just the most racist organization in their rhetoric that there can be.
This man, 30 years the president of that group, has now been uh promoted by the Clinton campaign.
Uh he will lead the New York Senators' outreach to Hispanic voters.
Oh, yippee.
I'm Roger Hedgecock, in for Rush Limbaugh, 1800-282-2882.
Back with more after this.
Roger Hedgecock in for Rush Limbaugh and uh new poll numbers on the presidential race.
We'll get to that in a minute.
And this business of the fury of the left, we're going to have to perform a public service here, ladies and gentlemen, at the EIB network here at the uh Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies, we feel compassion, and we're going to reach out in a moment.
Uh let's take a call first.
Ron in Chicago, Illinois, next on the Rush Show.
Hi, Ron.
Yes, hi.
Um I grew up about three miles away from Hillary.
I went to high school with her.
She was one year ahead of me in high school.
We were in the same school at the same time.
And she's live.
There, first of all, there were no farms in the area whatsoever back then.
Um it's a suburb of Chicago.
It's it's a fairly urban area and uh very, very wealthy suburb where she grew up.
Um it's uh it'd be like uh if you call it like uh I don't know, you know, a real fancy neighborhood.
And you don't you don't doubt you don't doubt that she was uh she was uh uh babysitting these uh illegal children were do you?
I don't know where she would have found anyone to tell to say she'd have to have them imported from somewhere because the the fact is that where we grew up there were no there were no families um and this is not a good thing.
I mean saying that at that time there were no families who weren't white middle class families.
We I went to high school with her, and in our high school, the only kids we ever had who were not white native English speakers, basically were uh foreign exchange students.
So Ron, what what high school was that?
Maine Township High School East in Park Ridge, Illinois.
All right, thanks, Ron.
Thanks, Ron.
I appreciate uh the call.
We're gonna check on that.
I mean, I don't know, the guy could be uh from anywhere, but that's interesting.
So here's a and I read this before, uh upper middle class uh White neighborhood, uh basically a suburb.
Where was the farmland?
Where was the I don't know.
Anyway, but let me get to this point because it is the today somewhat of an undercurrent that isn't being fully exploited by the drive-by media, fully understood by the American public.
There is a fury on the left.
And we've got to address it.
It's uh it's uh a boil that needs to be lanced here, uh, and we're prepared to do it.
The uh the left is in a fury over this veto.
Even though George Bush prepared him, I mean, how many times did he tell him this is what I'm gonna do?
It wasn't a surprise.
Nonetheless, the fact that he actually did it, the vote in the House was 222 to 203 to override.
Now he needed what uh 60 to whatever was uh votes, and they don't have it to override the veto, and they certainly are not going to be put in the position uh this close to an election of cutting off the material needed for troops in the middle of a war.
That's not going to happen either, and Bush knows it, and they know it.
So there's a fury on the left because there are people on the left, and there are people in the United States Senate and in the House who want the Congress to courageously take a position against the war by not just setting a timetable, but by cutting off the money.
Now, bring the troops home now, cut off the money.
Congress declared war, gave the authorization for it.
Uh the you know, Edwards voted for that, uh.
Kerry voted for that.
Um Hillary Clinton voted for that.
Now, of course, uh they uh apologize for it.
Uh they uh they say it was wrong, we were misled, Bush lied, all the rest of that stuff that uh Rush has just pinned him on uh repeatedly on this program.
I don't need to get back into.
But the new thing is this.
The left is now divided.
Do we uh send our leaders into the White House as they did yesterday to try to talk about common ground and what we can come up with so we avoid the fallout of actually declaring this war over and return the troops and cut off the money and take the political consequences of that?
Or uh do we know try to again set some kind of timetable, uh, put some kind of timetable on the Iraqi government if uh if Bush won't accept one, how about putting one on the Iraqi government?
Which, by the way, their Parliament is taking a two-month uh vacation in the summer.
In the midst of this war, the Parliament is taking a two-month vacation.
What do they think they are?
The U.S. Congress, these people?
Come on.
So uh 222-203.
The the left is in a fury.
Uh examples of uh and evidence for that.
Uh today's publication by Time magazine of the 100 most influential people in the world.
Rosie O'Donnell is on that list.
Leonardo DiCaprio is on that list.
Model Kate Moss is on that list.
Uh Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton and Martin Scorsese are on that list.
The director.
George Bush is not on the list.
So the fury of the left.
Now we uh tend to be as big hearted as this country on this program, and in that big heartedness, we feel like we need to reach out.
We need to ask those of you in the audience, and I know there are many, who are in this quandary on the left, who in your heart want to just stop this war now.
The Dennis Kucinich approach, cut the funds off, stop the war now.
Then they're the practical left.
Well, you know, we get caught uh holding a bag here on a defeat and uh millions die in the Iraq when we pull out and it's uh blamed on us and we lose the next ten elections.
Which one are you on?
And and and please vent.
It's particularly if you have a fury with regard to this veto, a fury about George Bush, uh wanting him in the words of uh of the uh lead singer there of a rage against the machine to be uh shot, hung, and tried, or whatever the uh order was of that.
And uh and I love the idea that we'll have the trial last, uh the punishment first.
So again, 1-800-282-2882, if we can be of service for your venting on the rage From the uh from the left on this veto and the fact that it could not be overridden.
I'm Roger Hedgecock, in for Rush Limbaugh.
Let's take a break on the EIB network.
I got time.
Let's take a call.
Mary Beth in Glassb.
I'm glad you said that.
Glastonbury, Connecticut.
Welcome.
Sure.
I just was calling my husband and I are in our pickup truck, and we're on our way to pick up some supplies and are listening to the show.
And you do have it reversed.
They do work up the coast, the immigrants, they do work up the coast and they go from the south to the north, because we are farmers in Connecticut.
Okay.
And I just wanted to let you know that.
Is that true in the um in the Midwest as well?
Or do the the wheat and corn come in before the stuff comes in down in Arkansas and Texas?
I don't know.
Well, I I I I really don't know about that.
I'm I'm a farmer in Connecticut.
Um you use a legal do you use illegals on your farm?
Well, uh, we do have legals on our farm.
Uh-huh.
We'll be back right after this.
Welcome back to the Rush Limbaugh program.
Roger Hitchcock Infor Rush Today, the program number 1 800-282-2882.
Lots going on.
Let's get to it.
Again, a rage on the left.
And if you are on the left, if you are uh liberal democrat, we'd love to hear from you because uh I want to uh I want to just see where where we're gonna go with this because this business of uh talking about uh uh impeachment and killing and shooting and hanging uh the president,
it's starting to really uh get over the top for a lot of people, and I think we're going to have to just uh talk people down uh from the uh from this position because uh it's just not healthy.
I mean, my my feeling is we can perform a public service here.
Leftist fury, you need to vent.
We need as a nation to restore a little civility here, folks, so please uh give us a call.
Now, today, tonight, and it's interesting where this is being held, the uh first of the quote debates, unquote, for GOP uh nominee hopefuls will be held at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, California, near LA.
And uh as this uh gets uh prepared for uh later this afternoon, uh later this evening in some places, uh Clinton and Giuliani still uh are on top of the pile in their respective parties.
Uh Mrs. Clinton is at uh in the uh AP, let's see, is this AP?
Yeah, in the New York Times today, AP is saying uh Hillary Clinton at uh 32, Barack Obama 18, Al Gore at 14, and don't doubt for a minute he's running, my theory.
John Edwards, 12.
In the Republican pile, uh Giuliani, 27%, McCain 19, although in some places yesterday's poll said, particularly South Carolina McCain is advancing.
Fred Thompson, who's not in the race at 14, Mitt Romney, who is at eight.
Um we're proposing for Mitt Romney, by the way, a popularity offset.
Uh with the money he got, he could buy some popularity from some of the other uh candidates.
Uh he's the top fundraiser, but uh apparently at 8% not getting the popular vote, so a popularity offset uh alongside his carbon offset would be a the appropriate uh thing to do for Mitt.
Uh but the most interesting thing about tonight's debate, quote unquote, is who is moderating it?
Who is moderating the debate?
This is in the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library.
It's Chris Matthews.
Chris Matthews is going to moderate this debate.
Now, he has spent on um softball.
Is that the name of the show?
I forget.
Anyway, his show.
Uh for the uh you know a couple thousand people that watch that.
He has spent the week talking about all the things that are going to go wrong, could go wrong, will go wrong with these candidates.
How far are they going to distance themselves from Bush?
How are they ever going to justify their stupid policies?
How are they ever going how are they ever going to distance themselves from all the flip-flops they've been involved in?
What about Giuliani's three watches?
I mean, they go on and on.
On and on.
And then Chris Matthews is going to turn around and be the objective moderator.
When are Republicans going to learn?
90% of every bureaucracy is Democrat.
90% of every newsroom is Democrat.
90% of every college campus is Democrat.
And those are, as you know, sometimes underreported estimates.
Thank you.
All right.
Oh, I got a San Diego call.
We got to take it.
Maurice in San Diego.
Welcome to the Rush Limbaugh program.
Go ahead.
Yeah, how are you doing there, Roger?
Okay.
Yeah, I I listen to you every once in a while, and I just wanted to call you because we wanted to hear from a liberal t liberal Democrat.
Sure.
You know, my my parents.
My father was a was a ex-Senator in Minnesota.
And but I just I just want to say one thing about the war.
And I just I just don't understand you know why we're going to continue this war when you know there they're clearly corporations are there for profit.
You know, we say it wasn't for oil, but yet, you know, now I hear that the Parliament for uh the Iraqi government is uh is in recess and is in the and the uh uh cor American corporations and uh not even American, but also UK and French uh oil companies are moving in to to steal, you know, the co to make sure that the oil profits go to them.
So Maurice Maurice, what do you what would you like to see the Democrat Party in Congress then do with this?
You know what I like to say take all the profit out of the war.
Take it all out and see how many and see how long this war will last after that.
Because without you know, have our military have our military go in and and do the work that of these uh private corporations and and general corporations.
Well, but Maurice, wait a minute.
Uh I want to just I want to just talk through this with you.
Uh I want to reach out, uh Maurice.
What what can Congress actually do?
When you say take the profit out of uh traditionally what's happened in this country for a long time uh under both Democrats and Republicans is contracts are let for various things.
They build the tanks in private uh, you know, and then the ships and so forth in private companies.
But well uh uh what would you like to see Congress actually do?
Just make it illegal for any company to make a profit during war.
Period.
Period.
So the whole point is to me not to be out of the way.
So then there wouldn't be so then this this would stop the war then because there wouldn't be any tanks or trucks or Hummers or whatever, right?
Well, you know, but during World War II, I mean they they stopped making cars so they could create the the uh tanks and c and jeeps and things that they needed for the war.
That's just not happening now.
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Maurice, are you suggesting the General Motors Ford uh Kaiser, all the rest of these people who built the fabulous war machine of World War II didn't make a profit?
Not during war.
So that's the whole point.
That's just my point.
I just want to be any war.
Maurice, where were you taught that?
Well, I mean, this is just a spot of my history.
It was an interesting.
Where did you but where but where did you learn it?
I mean, I understand what you're saying, but where did you learn it?
Well, I I mean I I went in school.
I mean, I I thought that that was a one of our um I I I I that was a mandate that during World War II that that the government was not that the government mandated that companies weren't exploiting uh explo exploiting making profit during war.
So I mean I I just think that's not and that's not happening now.
There's a lot of companies, uh there's a lot of uh there's there's a l uh I mean there's there's a lot of people making money, and that's why they want I believe in our and our president included wants to keep this war going because they're making money.
Would you and and don't you think the Democrats are in on that too?
Well, I you know, have you heard of have you heard of have you heard have you heard our senator, Diane Feinstein?
Have you heard of our senator as a member of the military appropriations committee in the Congress of the United States directing billions of dollars of these contracts you're discussing here to private companies for the purchase of military goods that were controlled by her husband?
I I think that um you know, as far as our government, I mean, I think I had to take the lesser of the two evils.
I know one is better than the other, but I just I believe the Republicans are are are about making money and profit of war more than the Democrats.
So I gotta I have to say, I have to say that.
All right, now Maurice, have you felt better about venting here?
I'm sorry?
Do you feel better now that you vented here on the Rush Show?
Yeah, I kept my point across.
Like I hope a lot of people agree what I'm saying, but I I do.
I feel much better.
Oh, then I feel better, Maurice, and I appreciate your call here on the Rush Limbaugh program.
1-800-282-2882.
Today reaching out because of the fury on the left has reached a point where simply there must be an intervention.
There has to be an intervention.
We're going to we we just need to do our part on this program to restore civility.
Ken in Ocala, Florida, next on the Rush Show.
Ken, welcome.
God bless you and what you're doing.
I'll tell you one thing, a 20-year veteran, after listening to Maul Reese out there, he frightens me more than the enemy does, and that's includes Reed, Pelosi, Durbin, Burke, and Keninche.
But I just want one time for one person on the left, or a Democrat, or especially the ones in Morrison, D.C., to tell us how, if we said today, okay, we agree, we're going to get out.
Tell us how to do it.
I mean, for God's sakes, don't they know that they they'd be shooting us as the last plane left or how would we do it, Roger?
I don't know, and I'm not in favor of it, Ken.
I'm just trying to reach out today.
Uh it it doesn't make sense to me.
I'm sorry I'm old enough to remember when the last helicopter left the roof there in uh Saigon.
So and Ken, so you know better than I. Uh the doing that again is uh is is not something most Americans want to see here or or experience.
But uh that's why I'm asking the Democrats today, not only for this idea of civility, uh reaching across the the venting uh which we've got to do here to bring the level of this uh hate down.
Uh hate is bad, uh uh and and the left now is raging.
They're in a rage, they're in a fury about George Bush's veto, and we've simply got to reduce the hate.
But I'll tell you, I uh this in in terms of how to end this war, if you're just going to announce a date of surrender and then call it support for the troops.
Uh I don't I don't understand it.
You don't understand it, but we've got to we've got to reach out.
Those people, those people that are always saying it, and the American people have spoken, I don't believe the American people, the majority of them want us to lose that war over there.
And they should stand up and say, how do you want us to do it?
If you say get out today, how how can you do it?
That ought to shut their mouth.
Well, we'll find out, Ken, when we come back.
Well, God bless you, Roger.
I appreciate the call.
Thank you.
Was that actually Rush calling in?
It could have been.
I'm Roger Hedgecock, it's on the Rush Libaugh program, and we're going to take a break and be back.
1-800-282-2882 with your phone call next.
Welcome back, everybody to the Rush Limbaugh program.
Roger Hedgecock filling in for uh Rush Today, taking your calls at 1-800-282-2882.
Talk to it again, I want to reach out here because we've got to get some of this uh this fury on the left.
Uh Time magazine coming out, hundred most influential people in the world.
And Leonardo DiCaprio, I mean, cute, but come on.
Um, on the list and George Bush isn't.
Now that's fury.
I mean, that isn't that isn't even reasonable.
That isn't even I mean, uh we would put Clinton in his era on the 100 most influential because influential for you know, good or ill, I mean, you debate it.
But to say the President of the United States is not influential, come on.
Come on, time.
I mean, this is a fury.
This is a we we need to vent here.
You we need to get the liberal left out because this fury uh is a is a negative force uh in our country and it needs to be vented.
Uh Bunny in Kimberton, Pennsylvania, you're next.
Hi, Bunny.
Roger, thank you for taking my call.
I don't know what I am anymore.
I I worked for for Papa Bush in 88, but I want you to know the fury is not just on the left.
Our legacy can't be I mean, we grew up most of this at uh at least formative years, some with somewhat with the 60s thought process, which was peace.
Where where is the money?
Where's the appropriation for that?
I just sent some uh uh a request for for an emergency one million dollars for educating and and putting the coalition for pe coalition for peace together that'll go in with this proposed um, you know, this appropriation for the war on terror.
The war on terror isn't isn't gonna be fought with bullets.
It's got to be fought with minds.
And we've got to reach young people, they aren't born not getting along.
Okay?
Capacitant Protestants in in Belfast aren't born not getting along.
Kids will play with each other, they don't care what color they are, what creed, or any darn thing else.
And it's not the fury isn't just on the left, and it isn't just about this war, it's about Eisenhower, who was Republican, warned us about the military and c industrial complex.
And I'll tell you something.
You know, I'm I'm involved in a lot of different groups, but but one of the people that I listen to the most is Al Ron Hubbard, and he said, until we can talk about the city.
Let me let me just interrupt, Bunny.
Let me just interrupt for one second before we get to L. Ron Hubbard.
I mean, I'm in California.
We tolerate a lot of uh, you know, of uh diversity of opinion.
But before we get to L. Ron Hubbard, let me just ask you, uh bringing bringing it back down to today's headlines.
What would you like to see the Democratic majority in Congress do about this war?
I what I just said.
I think we need to appropriate money to get people over there who really can start settling differences, getting, you know, people on both sides, uh, you know, look, fanatics are like fanatics, mainly because they're not educated.
So education has to be part of it.
If you you can tell a young person, you know, starting in childhood to hate something, but if they if they actually study and read their own religion, and I have studied Islam, it's a beautiful religion.
It really is.
If if they're taught their own religion, they're not they're they're they're going to get along better.
And it's got to start at very young ages, and it has to I think I think the women's role internationally needs to be played up, and we need to be much more involved in peace.
And I think until we do that, we're just gonna have more military industrial complex, which again the Republican general warned us about.
All right, so by the way, that previous caller, the previous call, Roger, he's not talking about not getting paid.
He's talking about not enormous profit.
We need a Grace Commission concept on on the cost of these humbies and this and that and the other.
There's no way in heck you can tell me that they actually cost that much.
I mean, there's just no way.
I don't believe that.
All right.
Well, now, Bunny, uh we we we've gotten it out on the table.
Uh how do you feel?
I'm still shaking because I can't believe I got through.
You got through and you've got your point of view on.
Don't you feel better now?
I'll feel better when I actually see people funding what needs to happen.
I uh here's a concept for you, Roger.
Checks in the right.
No, no, no, no, but let me go back to my con.
Let me go back to my concept.
All right, go ahead.
All right, go ahead.
I I've got I'm on a mission.
I'm on a mission today, uh of of conciliation, of reaching out, of a return to civility, of trying to get the left to back down uh from the the fury, the hate, uh the the the screaming of uh uh to to hang and try and shoot uh or shoot and try and hang or burn whatever it was uh Bush uh and that I heard last weekend and some of the the uh impeach everybody in the administration uh talk that I've heard.
We we're trying to get people to just vent and start uh a process of healing.
Now now, Bunny, have we started this process with you?
We have, but I'll tell you what, Roger, and you know as well as I do.
Well, I know we have a long way to go.
No, I I'm clear that we have a long way to go, Bunny.
I'm just want to make sure that I have contributed by getting you to start the process of healing.
Roger, it will start when I get the appropriation and we get some financial backing from corporations and and and whatever it takes to actually get a job done that can happen.
Because you want financial backing from corporations that are not allowed to make any profit.
I'm just trying to understand.
Look, there shouldn't be a limit on the amount of profit made, and and I don't know how you do that without you know, then who's guarding the guard?
But this the Grace Commission was a good example, okay?
I tell you what, uh I tell you what, uh God bless you.
Thanks for the call, and uh and we and we uh and we got uh we got it all in before before we got to L. Ron Hubbard.
Boy, that was close.
I'm Roger Hitchcock, 1800-282-2882, the number.
This is the Rush Limbaugh program back after this.
I guess Fred Thompson won't be there, but a number uh ten maybe will be at the Reagan uh library for the Republican uh hopefuls, uh including Duncan Hunter, has been showing up in the straw polls pretty strongly.
Our congressman from this area, the only member of Congress who has actually built a fence at the border between Tijuana and San Diego, a fence that works so well, by the way, that they have now discovered up to uh 31 tunnels under it, as the smokers trying to figure out some way to defeat Duncan Hunter's fence.
Anyway, Congressman uh Hunter will be uh among those the others involved.
Let's take uh got time for a Hubert in Sioux City, Iowa.
Hubert, you're on the rush show.
Go ahead.
Hey, Roger, how are you doing today?
Go ahead.
We got just a uh thirty seconds.
Yeah, Hillary uh she's not well, we used to have mechan or we had mechanical equipment, combines and stuff to do all the harvesting during that time.
The only time we ever had Mexicans up here was during weed control, and that was during uh they would go out and hold weeds in the summer and they weren't around for no time to go to school.
Now wait a minute, we can't we we can't we can't we can't use the H word.
Uh I'm sorry, Hubert.
Uh in the post-IMUS world, uh whatever you just said cannot be said.
Uh uh so without saying that, in other words, you had some weed control, uh they were using some sort of implement uh uh that's known by a name we can't say anymore.
Oh, we don't use a combine?
No, I didn't I didn't mean combine, the H word.
Uh you mentioned Well, anyway, Hubert, thanks uh for the call.
I've got to run, but we're trying to keep that away.
I mean, even Santa Claus uh said it uh three times uh the other day and got arrested.
I'm Roger Hedgecock uh on the Rush Show.
And we'll be back in the next hour.
The things that infuriate me.
