I guess you've heard what the uh the new British Prime Minister said.
Oh.
He said, either we are we are going to miss Tony Blair.
This guy said, don't say terrorists are Muslims.
Don't say that.
And we shouldn't use the phrase war on terror.
So they've elected a Breck girl of their own, a uh John Edwards of their own.
Greetings, my good friends, and welcome back.
It's Rush Limboy here on the Excellence in Broadcasting Network.
We're doing open line Friday on Tuesday today.
We're heading into a holiday tomorrow, and and uh we've got a best of show coming up.
So we're just sort of lacking not we're not lack of days ago, but we're not as rigid as we uh normally would be on uh on a Tuesday.
Telephone number if you want to be on the program, 800-282-2882.
The email address is Rush at EIBNet.com.
I know a lot of you want to keep talking about the Libby thing.
Feel free if you do.
One more thing on it, and I'm gonna move on to some other things.
And that is this.
Uh Scooter Libby was Mark Rich's defense lawyer, one of them, from 1985 to 2000.
And in uh in that period of time, Fitzgerald was the opposing counselor, the prosecutor uh when Libby was Rich's defense lawyer.
And so there you have, you know, a little perhaps a recipe for some vindictiveness.
Um I don't know if Libby was involved in lobbying the president for Rich's pardon.
Uh it's probably discoverable.
We should uh try to find that out.
But if uh if that was the case, I'm you know, you get a conviction on somebody and then uh president comes along and pardons and this has happened to Fitzgerald twice.
Well, not a pardon yet for Libby, just the commutation of the uh of the uh of the sentence.
Anyway, uh Tony Snow at his press briefing today said that the White House is getting hammered uh by conservatives, too, for this commutation.
And I don't know what conservatives are hammering the White House.
I'm sure they're some conservatives are upset.
I've had some emails from people who uh if they're upset about anything, they're upset that the full pardon was not granted.
But this I don't know.
I I think that's uh you know, to position the fact uh that uh hey, it's not just the libs up here that are biting at our ankles, it's uh everybody else.
We have our first winner, ladies and gentlemen, in the uh iPhone giveaway contest, Tom L. We're gonna protect the identity of these people uh by not mentioning their last names because uh mobs and hordes may descend to their homes later on trying to pick up the iPhone that they have won.
But Tom L. of North Platte, Nebraska, who listens to the EIB network on the mighty KODY AM 1240, uh is the first winner.
So they have nine iPhones to go, one a day.
All you have to do to become eligible is go to Rush Limbaugh.com and register for our daily free newsletter called Rush in a Hurry.
And it's just a summary of the program shortly after the program ends and gives you a little heads up on what the full website's gonna look like once it's updated at the end of the day.
Now, we're giving away these iPhones, but they cost money to use, obviously.
You have to have a two-year service contract with ATT.
So uh we are paying every winter, writing them a check, roughly fifteen hundred bucks for two years of usage service for the iPhone with ATT.
That's about $59.99 a month is the plan that we've uh that we've chosen.
Uh and the contract is for two years, 24 months.
So you get the iPhone, you will get a check for around 1,500 bucks.
A year's subscription to the Limbaugh Letter, and if you're current subscriber, you'll get an extension on your uh subscription.
And also the uh the people at uh at one of our great sponsors, Boca Java.com.
Great spectacular coffee or throwing in one hundred dollar gift card for every winner.
And all you have to do is go to Rush Limbaugh.com and sign up for Rush in a hurry.
If you did it yesterday, you don't have to do it again.
You registered.
If you registered any time in the past, you're qualified.
You are in the pool.
Your name is subject to being drawn.
The next winner will be drawn on Thursday, since uh tomorrow is the is the uh the fourth of July.
Uh and I just want to assure you that that uh this is not being done for any solicitation reason.
You're not your email address is not being uh given to what we're not asking for it, so we can sell it or use it, or we're not even gonna hassle you with it.
Uh this is all about uh expanding a uh great aspect of the website, the rush in a hurry aspect, and the podcast feature that we have every day.
Every program is available via podcast via iTunes uh within an hour.
Some days it takes a little longer, but usually within an hour, hour and a half uh after the uh after the program.
So that's that's what's up, and uh feel free.
We were I think we had a hundred and fifty-five thousand people.
If I got this right, I think I got the number right.
155,000 people yesterday that uh that registered.
And I was reading some of the emails from last night.
Boy, this is really this rush in a hurry thing, why I didn't know that this was happening.
And then I the people started learning about the uh podcasts, and really this is my fault because I just I I don't I'm not comfortable sitting here like I'm doing now.
We're doing this because we're giving away the iPhones, but I don't want to sit here and hawk my own self and stuff.
Uh just I've always had a uh I respect you people enough as it is.
I you we got a website, you know, we do podcasts, and if you want to go there and avail yourself of it, that's fine.
But I'm not gonna spend a whole lot of time on every show selling stuff uh that that uh we're engaged in here, because the important part of this program, of course, is the issues.
The content.
So uh what we got we had this idea to do the iPhone giveaway, and and uh we were able to get our hands on Tinder.
But these are the big ones, by the way.
These are the eight gig uh iPhones from the global warming stack.
This just gets more ridiculous each and every day, and every time we get a new story that's uh qualified to be put in our global warming stack of stuff.
It also uh serves to illustrate that I know these people like every square inch of my shrinking and yet glorious naked body.
I know liberals like nobody else does.
I know why they do what they do, I know how they're gonna try to sell what they believe.
Get this.
This is from the uh Sydney Morning Herald in Australia.
Humans are just one of the millions of species on Earth, but we use up almost a quarter of the sun's energy captured by plants.
The most of any species.
Now try try to envision this.
There's some people who seriously think this is a problem, that it leads to global warming.
Humans are greedy.
Human greed takes the lion's share of solar energy.
The human dominance of this natural resource is affecting other species, reducing the amount of energy available to them by almost 10 percent, say scientists.
Researchers said that the findings showed that humans were using a remarkable share of the Earth's plant productivity to meet the needs and wants of one species.
They also warned that the increased use of biofuels like uh ethanol and canola should be viewed cautiously given the potential for further pressure on ecosystems.
These scientists are from Austria and Germany.
They publish their results today in the Journal of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Uh they analyze data on land use, agriculture, and forestry from 161 countries representing 97% of the world's land map, and they're dead serious.
Well, I know we d I know we don't use it.
I fly over it a lot.
It's amazing how much is barren.
It's amazing how much of the land mass on this planet.
I'm not talking about Antarctica and Arctica.
I'm talking about places that that uh you could live and farm.
It's barren.
We uh that that's why you look at the whole notion of overpopulation, and uh it is it is the everything that these people are saying about this is as wrong as it could be.
But let's let's stick with the the the premise here that we are somehow overusing our fair share of solar energy.
How does one even start thinking that unless you are sick to begin with?
We are no different than any other life organism on this planet, and yet it proves the point that these people believe we are predators, that we are not a part of nature, that we ha we we our existence here is destructive and predatory.
Uh we are not part of what they call nature.
Because, see, they know that, or they think that all other living organisms don't have the intelligence to compete with us for solar energy.
And so we do, and so that's not fair.
We are, I mean, liberalism is totally encapsulated here.
You've got victims and you've got oppressors.
You've got an evil majority, and in this case, it's all of human well, actually, not all of humanity.
Get this.
What's that story with the Chinese, Mr. Sturdley?
The government of China has asked the what is the World Bank to uh delete something like it's not right, right, right, right, right, right.
That's it.
That's it.
In China, which was exempt from the Kyoto Protocols, it is said, by the way, and I de I even doubt this, but it is a communist country in a lot of parts of it, so it could be true.
Because communism kills.
That's the big lesson of communism.
750,000 Chinese people die every year, they say from pollution.
The Chinese lobbied the World Bank to have that statistic removed from an official report on the environment and pollution in China.
Because if it got reported, the thing is nobody would care.
You think Al Gore's going to start ripping China?
Do you think a bunch of libs of the United Nations are going to start ripping to the Chinese and say you start ripping us and we're going to come after you?
They're not going to put up with it.
And nobody's going to rip China anyway because they're afraid of them.
And I'm going to rip China because actually some of these world governments are far closer in practice to China than they are, say, a free market capitalist system such as ours.
So this is the kind of thing that's going on.
But if you if you actually come up with the notion that human beings are uh are unselfish or selfishly stealing and using more than our fair share of solar energy.
It's just how can anybody, in fact, most people aren't.
There's a great story today that the vast majority of the people of the world think all this global warming stuff is hyped, it's overdone, and is being exaggerated.
And I think we're going to pull this out.
Uh, you know, Al Gore's got this concert this weekend.
This live earth concert.
What is the carbon footprint of this stupid live earth concert that he's doing?
It's got to be huge.
All these dirty, filthy, smelly patrons of rock concerts showing up, getting in the mud, smoking their dope and doing whatever, chugging the lone star lognecks, whatever's going on out there, uh, forgetting to take birth control pills or other forms of contraception.
You know what this thing is going to be.
It's just an absolute mess.
Now, would Gore go out and buy a bunch of carbon offsets?
We're going to plant a whole bunch of trees.
Here's a guy who is engaging in a in his in his view, in his way of thinking.
I don't have a rock concert all day.
It's fine with me.
You can have one all week.
But Gore's belief is that this kind of activity pollutes and leads to climate change and destruction and so forth.
So Gore's out there basically doing a concert uh to get rid of concerts.
It would it would be like if I did a charity golf tournament for the express purpose of ending the game of golf, because it destroys the native environment by creating grass where weeds used to be.
Uh this stuff is just getting to the point now that it's absurd, but thank God for them because they give us laughing points.
Uh pressure bills.
Oh, they're dumping all over the new head down there at the uh National Hurricane Center.
Surprise inspection yesterday.
The Fed strode in there, well, recently.
Surprise inspection of the National Hurricane Center because this new guy that's running the place is out there, it happened.
Yeah, it was yesterday.
The unannounced visit came in the wake of serial controversies stirred by Bill Proenza.
The center's new director has been sharply critical of his superiors at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
Uh, and we know that nobody can be sharply critical of a bureaucrat.
Sharply critical of a bureaucrat, the bureaucrat will come after you.
Meanwhile, for the first time, one of Prowenza's hurricane forecasters expressed public concern about some of his actions taken since he took over in January.
Uh Lixion Avala, lead forecaster, center employee for more than 20 years said he believes that Prowenza meant well, but unintentionally has undermined public faith in hurricane forecasts.
Uh the new chairman down there has complained about budget shortfalls.
Uh he called uh multimillion dollar bogus NOAA anniversary celebration.
And uh he also he's the guy that told us that that satellite up there could fail any moment that tracks hurricanes, reducing forecasting uh success by 15 or 20 percent, and it's not slated to be uh replaced until what, 2015 or 2016?
And so this uh this Avila guy says going to the grocery store and people coming up to him after reading about all these controversies.
Well, you you you lost the ability to forecast hurricanes.
No, we haven't lost the ability to forecast.
I'm sure the new uh director didn't mean it.
So they have surprise inspection down there.
Uh to uh try to get this mind guy's mind right.
Anyway, a little long here in this segment, a brief time out.
We'll come back and continue.
Your phone calls are next right after this.
Time flies when you're having fun.
Rush Limbaugh, the cutting edge.
Half my brain tied behind my back, just to make it fair.
We go to Quebec, Canada.
This is Pierre.
Pierre, great to have you with us.
Hello, Rush.
How are you?
Just fine, sir.
Never better, actually.
Actually, nice shirt.
Thank you.
I kind of like that.
Yeah, all the uh all the suck ups are not writing in talking about how much they love the shirts.
Well, basically it's not the shirt that's creating that fuzz on the screen.
It's basically that you're brilliant, that's all.
That's what it is.
Good point.
Yeah, I'm getting ready for another question.
You can see them coming.
Uh yeah, I had a question for you concerning uh Hillary, and I thought you'd be the only one being able to answer that.
Probably true.
If you look at the ideology of all those extremist people, the factions and everything, you put them all together, and the man is above everything and everyone, and basically women are treated like dirt over there.
If Hillary gets elected, will he accept to deal with a woman?
Because by doing so, they would be giving the wrong picture to the right.
Well, yeah, they'd have no choice.
Uh they deal with uh Condoleezza Rice.
I mean, look at I'm gonna tell you this.
I this she she's a side dish.
I mean, if Hillary gets elected, she's it.
Well, that's just a side dish.
Secretary of State is not just a side dish.
Interesting choice of words from you there, Pierre.
Uh but look, this is I I make no brief for Mrs. Clinton, but screw these people.
If we elect a female president and they tell us that makes us even a bigger target, then come on.
Oh, I'm allowed to be.
The biggest problem that we're making here is trying to reorganize and reorder our lives so we don't offend them or don't offend that group or don't offend that country.
Frankly, I'm fed up with it.
I'm they're the ones that offend me.
They're the ones that are living in a dark ages.
And if we're going to give them some sort of veto power, even if it, you know, the the the election of Hillary Clinton notwithstanding, yeah.
Um we're we're in big big big trouble.
So you don't think that's going to create anything major?
I think they're already as angry at us as they can get.
They already despise our existence.
We're infidels.
That might, you know, put a cherry on top of the whole thing.
Uh bad choice of words there, folks.
I really Well, I said side dish.
Apologize for that.
Uh but we elect a female president, that might, you know, they're already over the edge.
We're we're dealing with lunatics here.
Yeah, I know.
And what we'll get you there, Rush.
Uh, another thing, uh, if I may.
Well, of course.
Uh, from outside the U.S. point of view, if I may say so, you look at CNN and all the media uh hoopla going on about every topic you can dream of.
America used to be looked at as a great nation, first power, first superpower.
I mean, you guys had it all.
And the media is making such a mockery of your country now.
There's not a single positive word that gets out on the media anymore.
And that includes us.
Oh, I know.
We're very much aware of that here.
People in the States do realize that.
I mean, it's it's getting to a critical point where you hear the word Americans, and people are almost I'll tell you what's gonna happen.
If Mrs. Clinton's elected president, what that will mean is that Bill Clinton is all also back in the White House, and you're gonna see the biggest 180 on the part of the media.
The economy will be great.
People's attitudes, they'll take polls.
The American people have never been happier.
The homeless are even nicer on the streets when people pass them by and give them a quarter.
You're gonna see America is all of in in the space of however long it takes to do the inaugural balls.
America will be loved again.
According to the media.
There will be newfound respect.
The Ahmadinezads of the world and the Hugo Chavez will want to sit down and talk business with us now that the great Satan has uh has been relegated to the ash heap of presidential history.
So what this really is is not I mean, I I I I do admit that there are a bunch of people in this country who despise the country as it exists and would love to tear it down to rebuild it in their own image.
Uh but at the same time, these are just a bunch of liberals in the media and in the Democrat Party, of course, who just can't get it through their heads that they've lost two presidential elections to somebody they think is an absolute Doomkoff.
And they're besides themselves with rage.
And so they hate Bush.
They hate Americans for electing Bush.
They're going to make it look like the whole world does.
Get somebody on their side back in power, and we will be a paradise once again.
Just keep adding to that list as the libs keep piping up.
And we're back.
800 282-2882.
Interesting column today.
I yeah, I guess it's a column.
No, it's a story.
I don't know what it is.
It's it's it's an article.
I used to be a difference between columns and articles uh in the drive-by media today.
It doesn't matter.
All articles are columns anyway, essentially.
This is about the immigration bill.
They got a fairly decent immigration stack here, too.
On the morning the immigration bill died, again, the ideological Washington Times exposed a supposed plot on page one.
A photo of Senator Charles Schumer, the liberal Democrat from New York, conspiring with a Republican traitor, quote unquote, from South Carolina, Senator Lindsay Gramnesty, to put something over on the American people.
In reality, they could have been checking a takeout menu.
That Thursday morning, however, Schumer and Gramnesty were in agreement that the Senate should keep talking and voting on revising laws on illegal immigration.
To the conservative media, Schumer and Gramnesty symbolize the enemy.
Hours later, the senator's cause was lost.
And the new media, websites, emails, conservative talk radio, televisions scored their most clear-cut victory since the re-election of President Bush in 2004.
Now get this next line.
This time the new media did it without strings being pulled by Carl Rove.
These guys in the media just can't get past their action lines and their templates.
It's like the Washington Post referring to me as a uh an untamed piece of the GOP message machine.
They actually believe that all of these things, say I say, or anybody else that you listen to might say all comes in facts or email form.
We get talking points, marching orders every day from Rove's office.
And then that's how everybody's on the same page.
They can't believe that conservatism is an ideology has certain principles that uh its believers adhere to.
So this time it happened, but we did it despite Carl Rove.
Uh the idea that that the conservative movement was opposed to this, and most conservatives were opposed.
Most Americans, in fact, the Democrats had an interesting poll.
And this is the uh San Francisco Chronicle, a new Democrat poll released Tuesday.
This is this is uh back during the debate, and I just wanted to remind you of this.
Because this was a factor in this thing going down too.
A new uh this story is dated June 20th.
A new Democrat poll released Tuesday could spell trouble for the big Senate immigration bill scheduled for another key procedural vote this week.
It's a democracy corps poll.
Stan Greenberg and James Carville showed intense voter concern about immigration in battleground congressional districts.
Voters were far more likely to support proposals that would tighten the border and stop illegal immigrants from getting government benefits than efforts to legalize them.
This this the Democrats poll said most people didn't really care about the amnesty.
That wasn't what it was.
It was that they're gonna be on the welfare state rolls and that they're gonna be pouring over the border with nobody checking it, and we're gonna lose control of the country.
The numbers on this poll, Democrats were evenly divided, 47 to 47% on whether the immigration bill should become law.
Yet this little guy in uh in the Buffalo News is all convinced that it was the new media that single-handedly got this done.
It couldn't possibly be that the legislation was bad.
It couldn't possibly be that Gramnesty and Schumer were indeed conspiring in ways to go over the heads and ignore the wishes of the American people on this.
Oh, could no couldn't possibly be that.
The most interesting thing piece thing in this guy's piece, though, is the last line.
Actually, the last paragraph.
And this guy's name again is Douglas Turner.
The stunning victory scored by new media in this episode raises a big question for the power structure, the lobbyists, the political establishment, and their friends in the mainstream press.
How are they going to manage the message in the presidential election when more and more people out there are looking elsewhere for details?
Now what strikes you about that last sentence?
How are they going to manage the message in the presidential race when more and more people out there looking elsewhere for detail?
Manage the message.
Lobbyists, political establishment, and mainstream press.
Well, thanks, Mr. Turner, for confirming what we've all suspected.
What we've all known.
There's a there's an agenda.
And it's no longer hidden.
And now managing the news, managing the message, something that's been alluded to here.
And they're girl, they're worried, they're concerned, as they should be.
This is uh this is not the first time something like this has happened.
Uh and it's why they're they're constantly trying to do everything they can to diminish the quote unquote power of the uh of the new media mark in uh Potosky, Michigan.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Great to have you on the program, sir.
Hi, Rush.
Happy upcoming Independence Day to you.
Uh before I get to my point, might I be able to share uh uh another testimonial about how your program has changed the way America thinks?
By all means, sir, we love those kinds of testimonials.
Good.
We have to go back to February of this year, the day after the uh Super Bowl, and you were talking about uh the disparity or the perceived disparity by the mainstream media of the lack of black head coaches in America in football.
And you said something that I that I'll never forget, and I'll tell you why.
You said so here we have four head coaches, and the first thing I thought you were going to talk about was Paul Bagala.
Four head coaches.
You just had to try to get your little joke in there.
Did you tell Snerdley that joke?
Did he did he approve you telling that joke?
No, he didn't.
Okay.
He would lie to me.
He would lie to me.
So I just kidding.
Lighthearted mood.
I j I genuinely thought I generally thought of Paula Baket Paul Begallo when you said that.
Well, let me tell me, you know, I want to say, since you bring up the Super Bowl and you and you you started talking about the uh the media and so forth, the you know, I I had a lot of fun during the during the uh the Super Bowl.
The the media was all over poor Rex Grossman.
They just couldn't give the guy a break.
The guy was just out there just messing up every time it was a it was a crapshoot when Grossman took the field with the Bears.
And because of the uh comment that I had made about the media and Donovan McNabb, uh, I thought I would tweak them, and it worked.
I was out there saying, why do you think the media is all over Grossman and so forth uh and trying to get rid of him, and I said it's because he's a white quarterback.
And they took the bait and they actually ran with it.
I set him up and they ran with it.
Uh a few of them figured it out in time to spare their brethren from going overboard with it, because it was clearly a tweak of the of the of the media that but they're so they've got their agendas and they've got their action lines, and if something happens to cause their knee-jerk reaction to keep moving that action line forward, what really is the truth about anything becomes irrelevant.
Now, what was it that you really called about other than your joke?
And I, you know, I've warned people don't try this at home.
What I really called about was an article that I saw in the New York Times Sunday uh about how Elizabeth Edwards called in to um an angry uh Elizabeth Edwards called in to a TV talk show to um berate uh Ann Coulter for the things that Anne Coulter said, uh or people didn't understand how she said what she said.
Uh yes, they did.
That's another of course they did.
They just chose to ignore the context on purpose because the standalone phrase gave them a chance for their eyeballs to pop out for them to have veins pop out and start saliva slipping down the corners of their mouth and they could go nuts and think it looked good for ratings.
That's they purposely ignored the content.
They knew what she said and how and where and when.
And not only that, but the New York Times, the way the New York Times reported that story, they said that Elizabeth Edwards spontaneously called into uh to a TV talk show.
First of all, I, and I think half of America knew that it was Chris Matthews Hartball Show.
The other uh and and also uh she didn't call in spontaneous.
Chris Matthews arranged that call.
Well, you can't call in spontaneously if you don't know the number.
And Hardball doesn't take phone calls.
So there's no way you could have known the number.
She had to call somebody to get the number, and the question is, did she call them and ask to be on, or did one of the producers say, Ms. Edwards, we got Ann Coulter on for the full hour, would you like to say to you?
You're never gonna, but you're right, of course.
However, whoever started it, the whole thing was a setup, and it was an ambush from the get-go, and it was planned that way.
That's how I that's how I understood it, and and uh but the New York Times didn't report it like that.
They reported it as a spontaneous incident.
Uh you've got you've got expectations of the New York Times that you should drop.
Uh your expectation is they're going to tell you the truth about things, and that's if you if you have that expectation about the New York Times, you're going to forever uh be saddened and disappointed or angry and outraged.
It's the last thing in this political climate that they're interested in.
Back here in just a sec, folks.
Ha, welcome back.
Great to have you, Rush Limbaugh and the EIB network heading into the Fourth of July weekend.
Hey, Mike.
I should have mentioned this to you earlier.
Uh check our uh profit archives to see if you can find the uh Red Skelton version of the Pledge of Allegiance.
We used to remember that used to play that all the time.
It brings tears to people's eyes, and it's uh it would be especially poignant and uh relevant today.
Couple things about the uh UK terrorist attacks, one thwarted the other one uh near miss.
Uh everybody's expressing shock.
Everybody's expressing surprise that uh highly educated, uh very achievement-oriented people actually turned out to be the terrorists.
The terrorist plot, by the way, was hatched in British hospitals.
And, you know, the the conventional wisdom is if you listen to the uh the drive-by's and American leftists, the traditional wisdom is that these people, these Islamo fascists are just a bunch of poor nomads.
They're a bunch of Bedouins, and they've been forced to live and eat desert sand all of their lives.
They're admired in poverty, and they have the indignity of having to be um the surrounding uh a nation filled with Jewish people, and it's just too much.
And they can't take it anymore.
So they've gone to blowing themselves up, and then they start blowing everybody else up that they can blow up.
And they're just a bunch of poor people, and all they want is justice.
All they want is freedom.
All they want is a chance, economic prosperity.
Good.
Why do we deny everybody so much of what we have?
Ah, boo-hoo.
Then all of a sudden we find out that the conventional wisdom and the profile is dead wrong.
And that the these are the kind of people that the British have been seeking as immigrants.
Now it's one thing to seek highly educated and skilled people for your immigrant uh population, but it's another thing if you're importing them from countries that are terrorist breeding grounds.
I knew something went up, was up when I saw that the car that they had loaded with all the explosives and the nails and stuff was a Mercedes.
I mean, it was a it was a small little Mercedes, but still it was a Mercedes.
You don't see it wasn't some thousand-year-old Volvo, you know, with uh, you know, a couple windows shattered out and duct tape holding the rear window together and a couple headlights missing.
It was a Mercedes.
And now we find we line that these people are all highly achieved.
They are doctors.
We find out that Osama bin Laden, uh, you know, all of his buddies.
I mean, Zawahiri is a doctor, a medical doctor, his number two guy, Eamon Al-Zawahiri.
They were all wealthy, educated elites.
Bin Laden's family is uh typical Middle East oil shikdom, business people, billionaire people.
And what they've done is used the poor uh and the underclass in their societies and countries.
That's where the breeding grounds of hate are taking place.
You don't see these wealthy elites blowing themselves up, except this case in in Britain, and of course, you never know when they were young.
This is obviously when the hate was instilled in them.
But the uh the wealthy elites are fanning the hate and the frustrations into actions that help the elites and the wealthy in this group, and they're quite a few of them, carry forth on their uh on their ideology.
It's like Lisa Myers on NBC.
They they did a uh story uh she was talking to who with Lester Holt on uh this was the Today Show this morning.
And uh Lisa Myers said, you know, this greatly complicates the profile effect that these two are doctors.
Uh breeding ground here in this hospital, a hatchet of plant and a bunch of doctors.
Most of the recent plots had been the work of so-called homegrown cells with ties to Pakistan, disaffected young British Muslims who, in some cases, went to Pakistan for terror training.
Here you have a group of highly educated foreigners, the kind of people that this country actually encourages to come to Britain.
So that makes it very tough list.
It does indeed when you're seeking those kinds of people from from the uh countries that are breeding grounds for terrorism.
Had this had the immigration bill survived cloture, and had it gotten a uh you know a winning vote last Friday, and had the bill come out of the Senate, this story, the terrorist actions in the UK over the weekend would have doomed the Senate immigration bill in the House because you know the the obviously abundantly clear the war on terror goes on, and the profile of people is highly different than what we think it is.
Uh and this is you know, border security is one of the problems that the opponents had, so this story would have, I think, put a nail in the coffin in it anyway.
I'm glad it didn't come to that, but it it might have.
We have a thirteen-year-old uh young man on the phone from Somerset, Pennsylvania.
His name is Patrick.
Patrick, great to have you with us today.
Hi, Mr. Limbaugh.
Hi.
I just wanted to talk to you about global warming.
Feel free.
Go ahead and launch.
All right.
When I was in school, we had a current events class, and we would breathe uh more liberal magazines like Time and Newsweek.
And they always had these articles in there about some new study about global warming and about how the earth was like three degrees hotter than it was a hundred years ago.
But they never had any evidence in there that it was caused by people, that it wasn't just a natural cycle.
Did you uh mention this?
Um no, I didn't.
I just thought of it near the end of the school year.
You just observed it.
Well, it's probably wise on your part.
Well, you're very smart because uh you're you're exactly right.
They didn't present any evidence that well, they didn't present any evidence, but did they try to convince you without evidence that it was man-made.
Yeah, they told us if we don't start driving hybrid, then it's gonna be summer in July or summer in January.
Yeah.
Well and at 13 why how where do you think your skepticism of this came from?
Well, my parents have always been kind of skeptical of it.
Well, more and more Americans are being skeptical of it.
You're gonna face a lot more.
Have you been forced to watch Al Gore's movie where you go to school?
No, we haven't.
Our town's um it's kind of conservative.
Well, but look, Patrick, this will be a good lesson.
There are liberals everywhere.
You may think that just because your town's conservative, but there are liberals, they're hiding in the shadows.
And they are lurking there, and they're they're a red-ins, and and the odds are that many of them are in the school system.
Uh, you'll probably at some point probably have to watch this and unless your parents and other other parents find out about it and then demand if you're gonna show this movie, you better show the uh great global warming swindle and put the uh other side to our kids out there.
Well, congratulations.
I'm glad you called and told us this.
This is the kind of thing that uh that gives us all encouragement for the future.
Here you are at 13, already aware of when you're watching propaganda.
That's great.
Thank you.
Okay, Patrick, thanks much.
A brief time out, folks, one hour to go here.
We'll get started with it shortly.
Stay with Okay, we found the Red Skelton Pledge of Allegiance.
So dig it out of the archives, and we'll uh play it for you in the uh in the next hour, as well as uh continue pouring through the stacks of stuff and your phone calls as the Rush Limbaugh program continues unabated into the era of broadcast excellence.
