Time Text
Hi, welcome back, folks.
You are tuned to the most listened to radio talk show in America.
By far, the Rush Limbaugh program on the Excellence in Broadcasting Network, a program that meets and surpasses all audience expectations on a daily basis.
I, as your highly trained broadcast specialist, lead the way.
You see where the uh Scripps Howard News uh news service coming closed the Cincinnati Post and another newspaper someplace.
Um let's see.
I just when uh when a newspaper fails, does the does the forest sigh with relief?
Staffers are all expecting it, but it's still it's a tough blow when the uh when the paper closes.
Is this drive-by's continue to have all kinds of uh of problems out there?
And by the way, this uh uh Hillary Clinton, I'm really having trouble understanding uh uh Elizabeth Edwards attacking it.
You said she's out there saying that she's uh what is it too much like a man?
And does it really uh represent uh uh women's issues well?
I mean, this is an attack on Hillary Clinton's femininity, and I thought everybody uh knew Hillary Clinton's a trophy wife.
How could anybody possibly say that she's not feminine?
How could anybody say this?
Quick, well, you doubt that she's a trophy wife?
Ha, ha, ha.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
That's just it.
You just think about it.
Uh a question, Mr. Snerdley made a good point to me during the uh top of the hour break.
Dingy Harry and the Democrats are always measuring our success in the war on terror by one standard, and that is have we captured bin Laden and Zawahiri yet?
And we haven't captured bin Laden and Zawahiri, and by their standards, uh, we have failed uh to capture uh the people responsible, so we failed in the war on terror.
There's no success.
Whatever to reporter.
We haven't captured the guys that did this.
We got to wondering.
Uh did we did we capture the Emperor of Japan in World War II?
Did we capture Hitler?
No.
He uh committed suicide.
We captured some of the ringleaders who were, you know, hightailed it down to South America.
After the war, how many leaders of countries with whom we've been at war have we ever captured in the middle of the war?
We didn't capture King George during the revolution, and we didn't have to capture him because he went crazy on his own.
We had to deal with him.
Uh Spanish American war, did we capture the bad guy?
Uh Civil War?
Yeah, we got Jefferson Davis, but uh that's the lone exception here.
Different circumstances there.
After the war, all of these things after the war.
We had, do we ever capture a Soviet leader during the Cold War?
No, they kept dying on us.
But when we won the Cold War, did we go capture uh Gorbachev?
Hell no.
We made him a world-renowned figure in the environmental movement.
But the point is, who who do we capture?
We captured Saddam.
We captured Saddam after the invasion.
Dan Rather had Saddam in his clutches to let him get away during that interview.
That's why you can't trust the drive-by media when you're fighting a war.
I mean, Saddam would nobody knew where he was.
Dan rather found him.
Did his great interview.
Did we capture the Ayatollah Homanian?
No, Mike Wallace had him in his hands, right over there in Qum, where the interview was.
It might have been Tehran, I'm not sure.
Right there, got away.
I mean, name it.
Did we North Korea?
We captured Kim Jong-yo.
Have we captured the North Korean leader during uh the Korean war?
No.
What is this?
It's it's a standard that's never ever been met, ladies and gentlemen.
It's time for an update, the Bret Girl All Over the News today with his wife.
Here's our theme song from Paul Shanklin.
I'll tell you what, folks, we wanted to go back and play this update because Mrs. Edwards, Elizabeth Edwards, has confirmed all of this.
You remember uh back in March, the New York Sun, Josh Gerstein did a story in the uh in the New York Sun in which he had uh uh talked to um uh uh what was her name?
Uh oh Kate Michael.
Kate Kate Michelman, former abortion leader babe, uh said of all the candidates that John Edwards was the most sensitive to women of all of them, not Hillary Clinton, not Barack Obama, John Edwards was the guy first female president, just like Clinton was the first black president, John Edwards is gonna be the first female president.
And so we put together this update, uh having having seen that, and then then of course Media Matters for America got all upset that I would dare stoop this low.
Well now, Mrs. Edwards has confirmed it today.
Elizabeth Edwards has said Hillary is just she's let me get it up here.
I don't want to paraphrase this because it's too important.
Hillary is behaving like a man, unlike her husband.
So vindication, ladies and gentlemen.
Now, as you know, well, you may not know, the Politico, uh fast-rising website out there comprised of former Washington Post reporters, uh posted a story yesterday.
Edwards has planned to diversify scruels.
Senator John Edwards plans to warn later this week that the nation's scrubs have become segregated by race and income, and he will propose measures to diversify both inner city and middle class schools.
The Edwards plan calls for beefing up inner city magnet schools to attract suburban kids, right?
And providing like that's gonna happen.
Well, hanging with me on this.
Providing extra money for scruals in middle class areas as a reward for enrolling more low-income students.
We've been there and done that, and it doesn't work.
He's proposing something that we've been trying for years that's been proven not to work.
Edwards lingered in the big easy this morning, admiring a five-year-old head start pupil's sneakers and hobnop.
What?
Five-year-old head sneakers.
I thought he was on a poverty tour.
He was hobnobbing in a wood floored cafe before racing on to Mississippi, Arkansas, Tennessee, blah, blah, blah.
We still have two public school systems in this country.
We got two Americans, we got two school systems.
I'll say what two school systems are.
Mediocre and real bad.
And Edwards said they're not segregated just based on race, they're segregated to a large extent based on economics, which has racial implications.
As explained by people who've been consulted about the program, Edwards wants to set aside a hundred million dollars to help Scruel districts implement economic integration programs.
The money will help finance buses and other resources for scrubs that enroll additional low-income children.
We have that's right.
His pl bussing, bussing, was just like his revolutionary, blindingly brilliant idea to make work pay.
He has come up with the concept of a paycheck.
Now he's come up with the concept of busing.
Absolutely.
Nobody, nobody thought of this.
And of course, where'd he come up with this in New Orleans where they don't use the buses for anything meaningful?
The buses get flooded with everything else with a hurricane.
He's proposing busing.
Yeah, in fact, that's right.
Snerdley wants to help Edwards here, called them school buses.
School buses, and we will bust people's kids to areas way far away from their homes and put them with people that they're never gonna otherwise see or meet, and it's gonna cause real great diversity, but nobody's gonna learn anything.
And everybody's gonna lose a lot of sleep and think of all the gasoline are gonna be westing with all these long bus trips that have no meaning.
We've done this, folks.
This is this is it's this is just about to end because it's a failure.
Edwards also envisions magnet screws dedicated to economic integration.
The idea is that these screws would attract middle class and suburban students to low-income areas.
He must be hanging around the other America because we've been doing this for 50 years.
Just like people have work is paid.
Uh it pays to work, it's always paid to work.
Uh uh, never since there was work.
Anyway, the political story, which is posted yesterday, very favorable.
Oh, what a brilliant plan.
There's no criticism in it.
But but between that posting and what I have in my formerly nicotine-stained fingers here, Elizabeth Edwards went out there and said that Hillary Clinton behaves like a man.
Clinton Inc.
is not sitting idly by.
Dutifully coming to the rescue is ABC.
ABC's website.
ABC News Rick Klein reports former Senator John Edwards on Tuesday plans to unveil a proposal to alleviate economic inequality in the nation's public schools.
I think there are two public schools here.
However, the Edwards moved to put their kids in a better school so they would not have to have their kids go to a school they didn't want them to go to.
And that's what this story said.
That's the primary point of this story.
When the Edwards family purchased a 102-acre plot of land to build a home on in 2004, they uh they appear to have had those odds in mind.
Elizabeth Edwards said at the time that they chose their location in large part based on the education the couple's two young children would receive there.
According to a local newspaper report shortly after the purchase, Elizabeth Edwards said the family plans to move there because she and her husband are interested in the school district there.
More than a year after the purchase, when local bloggers began buzzing about the fact that the new home would be in an unincorporated part of the county that's part of Chapel Hill, um Carabro uh school district, or Carborough School District, Mrs. Edwards wrote into the blog and cited the great public schools among the reason for their decision to relocate to a new piece of land.
So they fled a bad school district, bought someplace to go to a good school district.
I think I'm not sure.
But uh uh wouldn't surprise me if Clinton Inc.
is shopping this little tidbit around, because Edwards is going to announce his big diversity in schools plan this week, and now it's out there on ABC and it'll spread throughout the drive-by's and the other candidates that he's a hypocrite.
Because the plan he's going to devise for everybody else, he had a way to avoid himself and did.
Everybody puzzling over my meaning of uh Mrs. Clinton being a trophy wife.
I think bowling trophy wife.
Welcome back, Rush Limbaugh, the EIB network of the cutting edge of societal evolution.
Also, an emailer suggests Russia, it's a great idea.
To make sure that the hookers uh gonna charge a fair rate tonight for the all-nighter in the Senate and to make sure that there are porta potties in there, but the age of these people, they got cots.
You forgot to suggest bed pens.
That's that's good.
Very helpful.
We uh we simply want to do all we can to help.
Also, there's a town meeting uh tonight in Davenport, Iowa.
Uh Elizabeth Edwards and Kate Michelman, who uh uh uh essentially dubbed John Edwards the first female president.
Uh the gender wars are just beginning here because this Kate Michaelman is the one who got it all started that John Edwards is a guy that is the most up to speed, the most sensitive, the most aware of women's issues.
Uh, and then, you know, said in Salon in an interview that Hillary uh behaves like a man.
Gender war is just beginning.
Los Vegas, this is Dale, your next on the EIB network, sir.
Hello.
Okay, Rush, I gotta tell you, I've listened to you for 15 years when America needs a $10 cigar, we're in deep trouble, and I'll tell you where it's coming from.
Tell me.
The trial lawyers, okay.
This week they've destroyed the Catholic church.
It'll never come back again.
It's lost all credibility.
They shook down the biggest drugstore chain in America for incredible money.
They want to fight the war on terrorism by trying each Muslim extremist terrorist as a American with civil rights.
If we if we fought the Nazis that way, how long would it have taken to prosecute all the Nazi soldiers in World War II?
I mean, with all the appeals and you know, the uh all the legal procedure.
Oh, that's that's if we had been permitted to catch him.
Well, we don't another thing, too.
With capturing Osama doesn't mean a thing.
He's a mortal.
The most common name in the Muslim world is Osama.
The most common name in Britain is Mohammed.
Okay, so even if you caught him and Hung him, it doesn't matter.
He's replicated a hundred million times.
And we got a nuke from Iran headed our way.
I don't have time for you to call him play by play for Democrat and Republican football game or whatever.
They're the same party.
They're in the same club.
The there's no difference between them.
Neither one of them are going to secure the border.
Okay?
And you're in charge of this country, not the Congress.
We need you to take some action on this.
Because we're gonna we're gonna go down in flames in the election.
I used to work for Reagan in the Republican Party.
After Bush took over, I don't even know what that party is.
I don't know what they stand for.
Yeah, I have I have great empathy for you on those uh feelings about what happened to Reaganism.
It's been one of the one of the most puzzling things.
Here is a party that was shown how to be a majority party for who knows how long and they rejected it.
They are gone, and listen, you gotta quit taking so many golf breaks.
You're starting to worry us.
We need you at the home.
I mean, i I don't mind you you know, every other weekend or whatever, but uh really you're in control here.
They sent you that that's no accident, it's a ten dollar cigar.
They're letting you know that they have your number and they're coming after you, and if they can't get you on the furnace doctrine, they're gonna pry the cigar out of your fingers.
And you know it, and I know it.
I've waited fifteen years to talk to you, and I wanted to make sure that you heard what I said.
I've supported you so many times, shot down in rush rooms and vilified.
I was working in a university surrounded by liberals.
Yep.
And I thought if I ever get a chance to talk to you, I sat next to Edward Teller.
I thought I'm gonna ask him a question, okay?
You've got nuclear power in your hands, but you gotta use it and get off this democrat you're trying to breathe life into a sock puppet.
No, I'm not starting to embarrass them.
That's what I'm doing.
That's not what I'm doing at all.
Bush is gone.
He's not even up for election.
I'm not trying to I'm not trying to do anything here but educate the American people on the dangers they face being governed by a Democrat Party.
There is a difference in these two parties.
It may be minute on some things.
Uh, but there is clearly a difference.
The Republican Party is a low tax uh for the most part.
You got renegades in there, but it's it's a low tax pro-capitalist party.
The Democrats are anything but that.
The Democrats are out to control as many people's lives with as much control as they can muster.
They are after us, but I'm saying the Republican Party is dead.
They'll never elect a dog catcher again.
You gotta let him go.
And Bush is is he's done his thing and you supported him, you carried the water for him.
He's gone.
You gotta let you you are for somebody as smart as you are, and for somebody I am in Mensah and I got a one forty-four IQ rush.
And believe me, I've I've been following word for word everything you said for a long time.
Well, then you you know that what I'm doing.
Yeah, I know exactly what you're doing.
Well, then you tell me.
Okay, what you gotta do is quit making it sound like we have a uh a system that works.
Both parties are doing the same thing.
They just make you think that you have A or B it's a good cop, bad cop routine.
Hang on, Dale, Dale, I gotta take commercial break.
Hang on, just don't don't go away.
You've waited all these years.
You got a one hundred and forty-four IQ.
I'll give you another segment.
I know.
And thank you very much, uh, ladies and no no no.
Thank thanks.
Thanks uh so much.
Here we're back in the EIB network, and we go back to uh the phones.
Dale in uh in Las Vegas.
Yes.
All right, now we have more time.
I asked your question, and you you started didn't answer it.
You started telling me what I should do.
I want you to tell me what you think I do here.
When I sit down at this, you're got a one hundred and forty-four IQ.
You that's one of the Okay, you are the doctor of democracy.
That you're the only person in America that anybody trusts.
Nobody trusts the government anymore.
The government is not serving the people, whatever.
I don't know.
I except for Kay Bailey Hutchison and and a few others.
There's really nobody I can believe in the government.
They're building uh homeland defense thing.
I think they're gonna be used to control the Americans when we rebel and exercise our second amendment rights.
It's coming.
That's why they tried to get rid of the ammunition.
Guns don't kill people, it's the bullets.
All right.
Uh I appreciate knowing your attitude on these things, but I want what I'm I I very much appreciate your Go after the trial lawyers.
Find uh that they that's a conflict of interest to have a executive, no, no, a legislative and judicial, and they're all lawyers.
I understand.
And I look at I think the uh uh what we ought if we You know the best way to fund health care in this business is to take eighty percent of the awards trial lawyers get for themselves in these cases where they sue doctors and where they sue hospitals and so forth.
And when they've been doing that, yeah.
And then take that money instead of the money that they're you know, instead of raising taxes on on on on uh cigars, go out and get these people who are out shopping for money like this, creating all these claims.
I I couldn't agree with you more.
My family's lawyers, they're not trial lawyers.
Yeah, I know the lawyer.
That's what I mean.
I I was thinking, my God, he's a lawyer too.
Listen, they killed off the Catholic church.
I'm a Jew.
The Muslims are gonna be coming for me shortly.
I was planning on having the Catholics as allies.
They're not gonna have any money left.
The Pope's gonna not have any influence.
It's just gonna be me eyeball to eyeball, and there's not enough of us left to put up a good fight.
Well, so what are you gonna do?
I'm gonna call you and tell you to, you know, we gotta work out a strategery, okay?
To go after the trial lawyers.
Yes, get them out of government.
Or at least put a moratorium.
Wait a second.
You know, he's he's he's got a point here.
These the the judiciary and the lawyers have gotten themselves insulated from election results.
On everything.
And and and uh I know that's what that's what OSHA was all about.
They're shaking down corporations for huge money now.
I know.
Jesse Jackson's a piker compared to the trial lawyers.
Huh?
Jesse Jackson's a piker compared to the trial lawyers.
That's what I was gonna put.
I wrote that down.
See, I I told you I know you word for word.
I wrote that down on my sheet of notes, so I wouldn't forget to say that Al Sharpton and Jassy Jackson are pikers compared to the trial lawyer.
Let me tell you how they're doing it.
Oh, this is the one forty-four IQ part, okay?
Ready?
Yeah, I'm ready.
Okay, this is how they're doing it.
They're using computers.
See, I was working in physics, I told you.
And we use we have to do massive amounts of data.
So if you take all the data that they say they're only taking for security purposes or this or that, they every time you fill out a little form, they hack into everything.
The Department of Defense, Homeland Security, there's no safe data.
If you put it in a computer, it is public knowledge.
Okay, next they run these massive data programs till they find out, oh, it looks like a certain drugstore chain hasn't promoted enough blacks.
We're gonna sue them for racial discrimination, although they settle out of courts, we never know who was convicted of what or how.
And they they get away with a massive payoff, and it's all hushed up.
That's not democracy.
That's a prescription for disaster.
Yes.
And when you say you're trusting homeland security to stop they were talking about a car bomb in Vegas.
I said it's not going to be a car bomb.
They're training people in Guatemala to impersonate Mexicans to come over the open border, and uh the smuggler family Kennedys are in charge of uh writing the the the border control bill with uh La Raza, which means the race.
I mean, this looks very bad, Rush.
And I don't want any more play by play, Democrat Republican, it's all skull and bones people.
Now we're now we're closing the loop here.
We're I want to go back I I still haven't gotten an answer from you.
Okay, what do you I told you I I'm No, you what am I gonna do?
No, no.
Would you like Well, okay, what's your question?
My question is for the third time you listen to me for fifteen years.
What do you and this is based on the fact that you're you're complaining and I'm just doing play by play of a football game.
Yeah, you're you wanted to be a football announcement.
No, no, no.
No, you said something that got you in a lot of trouble.
I know you were drug addicted.
You know what what the court system can do to you there.
I felt so bad for you.
I was hoping you'd make it.
We're doing it.
That's the thing.
You don't you you've gotta have you've gotta have some confidence in next deal with this this recipe of doom and gloom that you've come to.
No, no, no.
I'm not into doom and gloom.
I want the other guy to have the doom and gloom.
I don't know.
You are into doom and gloom.
You're in a di You're you're you're a you're in such doom and gloom you think the only hope and salvation is for me from behind this microphone to go after the trial lawyer.
I wasn't really serious.
Really, we we've got to work on the money.
But if you weren't really serious, how can we determine how much uh you were serious about other things you said?
I have Okay, really you do have the power.
You you influence a tremendous I'm not sure.
That's that's the answer to the question.
Would you just let me ask the I'm gonna ask and answer my own question.
Go ahead.
The question was, what do you think I do here?
What the answer to the question is I attempt to inform and educate and get as many Americans who are ambivalent about the political process to get involved in it because elections uh do matter.
And it's gonna take time to get rid of all the infestation that we have discussed today, the people that are in government agencies and all over the judiciary insulated from uh election results.
But this immigration thing that just happened, that that's and the OSHA restrictions that were just stopped.
I mean, that's those are two great examples of exactly how it can work and how the people of this country can stand up and be counted and get legislators, senators, and whoever to to uh to listen and and and and bow down.
So those are things to feel positive about.
Rush, rush.
It's not about feelings, okay?
It's about results.
We've got we've asked men to die.
All right.
Thoughts.
Then the American feelings.
The American people can realize here that what frustrates me is when I hear people say, ah, I what I'm not gonna matter.
I'm just one person.
No, Paul, uh, doesn't we just disprove that?
Now, as to your complaint about the two parties, I'm sorry, but there's a difference.
Uh the Democratic Party is run by people who may as well be Marxists.
They are certainly being influenced by people who may as well be Marxist socialists.
I'm talking about the kook fringe bloggers and so forth that they for some strange reason listen to.
The Republican Party is nothing like them.
They're not the same.
Uh the the and we're when Republicans do get too close in appearance, look what happens.
Their voters throw them out to hell with the consequences.
As happened last November.
So the the effort here is to um inform people how to view things in the drive-by media, what they don't report on, what they do, all these things, and that's that's what I do.
Uh and that's that's the purpose.
I don't get up every day looking for something a Democrat did to attack him or her.
I don't look for Ted Kennedy's name in the news and start salivating.
I look at what is in the news, and generally, when I see things that I believe in, people who I believe in being attacked, that's when I get in gear.
When I see traditions and institutions that I love and cherish and adore under assault, that's when I get in gear.
I'm primarily a defender of the greatness of this country and the people who made it great and continue to make it great.
Yet the image is I'm out there attacking and get my sword and I'm just going through the villages here and it's totally incorrect.
Hey, you're smart enough to get it, you understand that.
Um and I do it because I believe it matters.
If I had your attitude about all this, you know, I'd I'd take what I've earned, I'd close up shop here, and I'd go down to Guatemala so that the people infiltrating here are no longer to be where I am.
Training Al-Qaeda to impersonate Mexicans.
Well, that's another thing.
He was on hit, I know he was he wanted the cigar tax.
Stop the cigar tax.
Because that was see the cigar tax in his line of thinking, that's that's a derivative of the power of the trial lawyers.
I'm just gonna tell you this.
I know that cigar tax is aimed at me.
I'm the most high-profile public figure who smokes cigar.
Hell, I smoke cigar here every day in the dental camp.
Every picture of the golf magazine, cigars in there, golf course pictures smoking a cigar.
I am the face of cigars.
And they're targeting me, but they are I don't care if they tax those cigars a hundred bucks a stick, they're gonna have to pry them out of my dead hands.
All right, you um you won't believe that.
Well, yes, you will believe it, uh, given where it comes from, comes from Seattle.
All single family homes in Seattle must sign up for table scrap recycling in 2009.
The City Council decided on Monday.
Yes, you heard right.
While residents will have to pay for the service, the city will not check whether they're actually dumping food in the new separate bin yet.
Uh now what am I missing here?
Table scraps, we all know what table scraps are.
You people in real linda eat them.
Table table scraps are leftover food that you don't cover up, put in the fridge.
Now the the there's a uh gadget uh that people use to dispose of these things.
It's called a garbage disposal.
And I'm sure since Bill Gates lives in Seattle, they have them there.
Snerdley, you lived in Seattle.
Did you have a garbage disposal?
All right, good.
So we know that they have garbage disposals there.
What is table scrap recycling at your home?
You have to have a separate big garbage pail out the back.
And you got a I know that I know.
I've been to Seattle.
They got three recycled bins already.
Recycling is a bunch.
No, it's a it's a hoax, too, but it doesn't hurt anything, but it doesn't accomplish anything either.
But what is table scrap recycling, and they're not going to check?
Then why do this?
If they're not going to check, you gotta pay to do this, but they're not going to check whether you're actually dumping food in the new separate bin.
Why I don't believe that for a second.
Yes, Councilmember Richard Conlin, Chair of the Utilities Committee, said uh we can reduce the waste stream.
Uh we can treat waste as a resource and continue to recirculate it as we reclaim, recycle it, or turn it into compost.
So they're making a big compost heap with with uh major American cities' food scraps.
Uh see, reducing food trash was a piece of a larger plan the council unanimously approved on Monday to reduce the amount of garbage sent to the landfill.
So starting in April of 2009, all single family homes will be required to subscribe to food waste recycling, a program that's now optional through the yard waste collection program.
Variety of containers will be available for different rates.
Why do people put up with this?
This is exactly the kind of stuff I'm talking about.
Put put well, okay, maybe Seattle they're gonna love it.
But if this is this is how this is inane.
This is simply a most people you're right.
In Seattle are probably sitting around, boy, our government cares about us.
Our government loves us.
I give up.
You know, the left coast.
Dale may have a point.
John in Centerville, Ohio.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Thanks, Rush.
Uh I'm a gray beard of an IQ of just 129, and I have an intelligent comment.
All right.
We have uh turncoat Reaganite who is undermining the Republican Party and our president.
Why does Peggy Noon have such a burr under her saddle?
Uh really took uh Bush apart and spit out the pieces.
What's her problem?
I don't know, and I have you know what?
I've had a bunch of people recommend that piece to me, and I haven't read it.
Uh I just uh it it uh I guess wasn't that piece Thursday or Friday of last week and the weekend uh yeah, it said I got the notes about it over the weekend, and I just I forgot and never went back and uh and and read it.
I know my brother, who uh is a fabulous national columnist, uh, wrote a column about he was he was stunned.
He was uh sounded like you, and and he wrote a piece about it.
I haven't haven't had a chance to read his piece yet either.
But uh you're not the first to mention to, but I don't know.
I I I haven't uh I haven't talked to Peggy in a long time, and I uh I ought to go read the piece, because I'm actually flying blind here.
You know, I used to like her.
I'm not gonna liking her much anymore.
Uh she'll be sorry to hear that.
Well, anyway, Megadeth O'Reilly.
All right, I appreciate that uh very much.
I uh you know, I the only thing I can tell you about why I didn't read it is because bushbashing is so common that is it's not gonna affect me.
Larger things at stake here.
But let me read it.
Let me I'll have some thoughts on I'm really ill-equipped to offer intelligent commentary.
All I could do would be offer semi-intelligent commentary, and that's too low a standard for me.
Uh Stan and Elizabeth uh Elizabethton, Tennessee.
Uh you're next, sir.
Hello.
Rush, it is an honor to talk to America's number one prophet.
I want to tell you that 15 years ago you said, and I quote, because of this program and others that will surely follow.
Knowledge of the truth will expand exponentially.
Not the truth.
The truth has always been there.
But because of this program and others that will follow, knowledge of the truth will expand exponentially.
You were right.
You are in the purest form of the word in both the Hebrew and the Greek, a prophet, which means inspired speaker based in truth.
Now, you you when you say talent on loan from God, I know what you're saying.
And I know you know what you're saying.
What I want to know is, Prophet, what's up for the next ten years?
No laugh, brother.
It's serious.
You know it is.
No, I know, I know.
I'm I'm laughing because I I've I've got limited time to deal with this.
I understand.
Um, so you'll have to you remind me about this tomorrow, snerdily, and I will I'll uh I'll work work on an answer.
It was uh it has been so true, and exactly what you said has happened.
The truth has expanded, and there are people who are just scared to death of that happening, and it has happened.
So I just want to thank you for holding up your end of the gift.
Well, uh that's not an easy task.
Well, okay, I I'm I'm very much appreciative of what you're saying.
I uh I thank you very much.
Thanks, Rush.
I'm a little speechless here.
A quick timeout.
We'll be back there in just a second.
I know, I know.
Okay, we're back here, uh, ladies and gentlemen, to uh wrap up the program.
I forgot to mention in this hour the last iPhone winner.
Uh we have away ten of them, and today's winner is Angela C of Lexington, North Carolina.
She listens to the EIB network very rapidly, by the way, she said, on WSJS AM600 in Winston, Salem.
So she gets the um iPhone, the eight-gig iPhone, the uh two years uh uh payment to uh get signed up for a service service from ATT, years subscription to both the Limbaugh Letter and the website and the 100 gift card from uh boca java.com.
Now we're out of iPhones, but that doesn't mean our large Jess is over.
Every Friday from the website, you can go to check it out.
We uh we give away rush packs from Allen Brothers, an assortment of uh hot dogs and hamburgers and steaks that are unlike, and I mean even the hot dogs and hamburgers, in addition to the steaks, unlike what you can get anywhere else, and certainly not in the grocery store.
That's not to put down grocery stores.
Allen brothers supplies some of the best steakhouses in the country, and steakhouses get the real prime, and they uh they sell stuff to the public as well.
It's really delicious.
And enjoyed being with you today, folks.
