Time Text
No, I I think it's pathetic.
I just I I really I think it is pathetic.
No, what Mrs. Clinton is doing.
Here's Ted Kennedy, and he's doing a fiery endorsement of Mrs. Clinton, or of Obama.
Hey, he's quoting Ronald Reagan.
He said, with Obama, we will have our own rendezvous with Destiny.
Quoting Ronald Reagan, greetings and welcome back.
Rush Limbaugh, the Excellence in Broadcasting Network.
Great to have you here.
Phone number 800-282-2882.
The email address is L Rushbull at EIBNet.com.
No, miss, while this is going on, Mrs. Clinton has uh has uh been out there talking.
AP's got a story, and the headline of the story is Bush has lost touch with the public.
Now this this is pathetic.
She is getting her rear end kicked by Obama and Ted Kennedy at this very moment.
She's still running against Bush, not on the ballot in November, not running for the Democrat nomination, obviously.
Uh this is desperation and it's panic, and it's pathetic because while this is going on, she's making an appeal to the fringe coop Democrat base.
She's gone back now to running against George W. Bush.
Uh and I'll tell you something.
I I I I watched the Senator Kennedy endorsement speech of Obama, which is still going on as we speak.
We will have audio sound bites of this as the program unfolds this afternoon.
But what we have here is the uncivil war entering a new phase in the Democrat Party.
Uh Ted Kennedy is delivering the answer to the Clinton Southern strategy, and it is the Northeast liberal backlash.
That is exactly now he did throw in there uh the way oh want a Democrat president.
We all will support the nominee of our party.
He threw that away, just threw it out there, and uh and then is now uh in a full-fledged endorsement of Obama and and uh as I said, he's taking words from his own endorsement letter that he emailed out this morning, uh trashing the Clintons, uh quoting President Kennedy and so forth, and talks of the uh pass the torch a new generation, move the nation forward, get rid of red states, blue states, and substitute it for the United States.
Uh quoting Obama from his 2004 speech at Democrat National Convention, praising him for that.
So the uncivil war has taken a new turn now.
Uh the answer to the Southern strategy of the Clintons has been the Northeastern Liberal backlash, as delivered here by the JFK wing of the uh of the Kennedy family.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Clinton out attacking George W. Bush, saying he's lost touch with the public.
He realized how many people in Democrat primary today care about Bush.
Well, look at where the war is on the list of issues, and all these people that are voting are asked answering questions uh about it in the uh in the exit polls.
It's nowhere.
Another thing that I uh that I predicted to you.
Now I have been saying, uh, ladies and gentlemen, that the Democratic race can be typified by the following statement.
We've gone from Bull Connor to Bull Clinton.
And Mr. Snerdley has suggested it might be helpful for me to tell you who Bull Connor was.
Some of you may not know because of your age.
Uh his real name was Eugene Bull Connor.
He was a member of the Klan.
Bull Connor was a member of the KKK, the Ku Klux Klan.
Bull Connor was a staunch advocate of racial segregation, much as was Bill Clinton's mentor, Senator J. William Fulbright of Arkansas.
As the public safety commissioner of Birmingham, Alabama in the 1960s, Bull Connor became a symbol of bigotry.
He infamously fought against integration by using fire hoses and police attack dogs against unarmed black protest marchers and even white protest marchers who were matching uh marching with the blacks.
The spectacle, all this was broadcast on television.
The spectacle served as one of the catalysts for major social and legal change in the South and helped in large measure to assure the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Connor's tactics backfired dramatically into helping to bring about the very change that he was opposing.
The bottom line was he's a member of the Klan, he was uh he was a sheriff, uh police official, uh staunch advocate of racial segregation, fire hoses and police dogs on protesters.
So when we say we've gone from Bull Connor to Bull Clinton, what I mean is that Bull Connor lives in spirit today in Bill Clinton uh by virtue of his behavior in South Carolina and his dissing of Jesse Jackson uh when uh asked to explain Obama's victory.
Well, you know, Jesse Jackson ran down here too.
He did good in two elections, he ran a good campaign, but Obama ran a good campaign, too.
But I mean, what the hell are you gonna do?
You got black people down here support black people, they support losers.
I may support Jesse.
Jesse Jackson's a loser, but I had to go in.
You know what I had a sister soldier, that guy, in order to get elected myself.
You can't get anywhere with these people.
You can't get anywhere these people are from.
That's what he's saying.
Uh and so Bull Connor to Bull Clinton.
Now let me get back to this Senator McCain business.
I continually am uh not so much lately.
I must tell you, uh uh after last week, I think I'm getting less fewer inquiries uh about this.
But the one thing that people continue to pepper me, a CNN wanted me on today this morning.
I didn't want to get up early enough uh to be on CNN and not enough audience there to warrant uh shortchanging my uh sleep.
Uh but they wanted me on to discuss the statement I made that if Huckabee or McCain get the nomination, that's it.
Uh the Republican Party is finished as we know it, because conservatives sit home.
What do you want?
They want to know what I meant by that.
Uh and uh some some McCain people, I understand, are are saying that that comments like that made by me are no different than some of the fringe kooks and their comments at Democrat Underground and daily cause some of these other uh left-wing blogs.
And I think what the McCain people don't get here is that those of us who call ourselves conservatives also consider ourselves a movement.
We're not politicos.
We're we don't go issue by issue and say, okay, if we support this, can it help us here and do this?
We're we're we're movement people.
Uh and we're we're we're sick and tired of having Republicans elected who are not movement people.
We believe in conservatism.
We believe in it as a governing ideology.
We believe in it because it's the founding principle of this country.
And we want it to take root.
And we want it to soar because when it does, people soar.
Country soars.
S-O-A-R-S.
Uh and to sit around here, we're not making calculations on the basis of one political issue to the next.
Uh one of the reasons I think the Republican Party would be i at least reshaped, is that I think it would lose big.
Uh I I think I think conservatives, some of them just won't vote.
I don't think uh the McCain people understand just how deep the resentment for Senator McCain has been and is based on his time in the U.S. Senate.
I don't think they understand it, and I think that they think that it can be overcome with a little outreach here and a little outreach there, by saying he's changed his position, uh changed his mind on illegal immigration.
We got some audio soundbites, clearly indicate that he hasn't done that.
He was asked, for example, if the amnesty bill came up again, would he vote for?
Oh, sure.
I'd vote for it again.
But he said, what you don't understand is it won't come back that way.
But he says he'd vote for it.
Now if he says he'd vote for it if he had a chance to, if he was sign it as president, if it came to his desk, then he hasn't changed his mind.
Uh and who knows, it could come back.
That's the whole point.
It could come back in that same form.
But let me let me elaborate a little bit here on the question I asked you before the previous hour ended.
One of the points I've made throughout the past eight years, people have called here, and you know who you are, and you have weighed into me, and you have gotten extremely angry at me.
How come these Republicans in the Congress, boy, they're not governing as they said they should, said they would.
They run as a conservatives and they get in there and they and they compromise so and I ask them point blank, what can they do?
If you are a conservative in the House, and your president is calling up Ted Kennedy to write the education bill and the immigration bill, what can they do?
It is death to go against your own president.
You just don't do it.
So you either lag and let the legislation you disagree with go nowhere, but you certainly don't go on television and rip your own president.
McCain does and has, and this presents a big problem for us.
Do you think, let me give you the counter view.
Do you think let's play a little game?
Let's take the Bush presidency the past eight years, and instead of uh having Denny Hastert and uh and whoever the Speaker of the House is, uh let's put Newt Gingrich in there.
Do you think Newt Gingrich would have been able to accomplish what he did with a Republican president who was not conservative?
There's no way, folks.
It wouldn't have happened.
And what I fear is what I know, what I know is that if McCain is elected president, the Republicans in Congress are going to be hopelessly hog tied.
And they're going to be hamstrung, tied, hands tied behind their backs.
They won't be able to do anything.
And by the way, I should point out here that it'll be even worse than that.
Because McCain would be working with the Democrats against conservatives in the Congress, just as he has on uh during his time in the Senate.
So you elect a President McCain, President Huckabee, who is more eager to work with Democrats, more eager to work with liberals, then he is his own side.
And we've even we've seen elements of this in President Bush.
I I would just assume to have conservative Republicans in the House of Representatives and whoever they are in the Senate, to be able to be full throated and full voiced advancing an agenda of opposition.
And I think it'd be easier to do that with a Democrat president.
Given our choices here if it's McCain or Huckabee.
I don't want to repeat here the last eight years.
Remember when I told you I'm through carrying water?
Last last November, November of 06, I'm through carrying this is exactly what I meant.
I'm I'm I'm through trying to say, don't get mad at these guys, they're doing the best they can.
I'm through doing that.
I you know, we're not politicos, we are members of a movement.
We want it advanced.
And people who are not members of that movement, who nevertheless are Republicans, uh, but want to want to make make whoopy and and friends with Democrats and thwart the movement.
What what's what's the point in sabotaging my own belief?
It really is no more complicated than that, and it isn't personal.
I have never met Senator McCain.
It is not personal, nothing to do with anything of the sort.
Now I gotta take a brief time out.
We'll do that, we'll be back, we'll continue in mere moments here on the EIB network.
Stay with us.
Ha, how are you?
Welcome back.
Rush Limbaugh with Radios Nationwide, tuned and locked to the excellence in broadcasting network.
So Obama just got through thanking Caroline Kennedy for her support and endorsement.
Sweet Caroline.
Bum bump.
Good times.
Never felt so good.
Anyway, she was the young girl under the desk in the Oval Office.
The mess that she left on the blue carpet was spilled milk.
Who doesn't remember?
Who hasn't seen that classic photo from the JFK years?
Little John John and Caroline Kennedy playing in the oval orifice under the president's desk.
We've come a long way since then.
Caroline Kennedy is now Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg, mother of three, successful author, generous philanthropist, one of the founders of the Kennedy Profiles and Courage Awards, and the author of an op-ed in the Sunday New York Times that is reverberating around the world.
It's already the most emailed email in the New York Times site.
First and laugh paragraphs pretty much say it all, a president like my father is a title of her piece.
Over the years I have been deeply Well, you know what's shaping up here?
The modern day version of Hatfields and the McCoys.
The Clintons versus the Kennedys.
Over the years I've been deeply moved by the people who've told me they wish they could feel inspired and hopeful about America the way people did when my dad was president.
This sense is even more profound today.
That's why I'm supporting Barack Obama.
I have never had a president who inspired me the way people tell me my father inspired them.
But for the first time, I believe I have found the man who could be that president, not just for me, but for a new generation of Americans.
Now, it's understandable but not joyous that she does not acknowledge Ronaldo's Magnus.
But look over look as she passes over here when she says that she's never had a president who inspired me the way people tell me my father is.
She's passing over LBJ.
She passing over Jim McCarter.
She passed over Bill Clinton.
She has said in the pages of the New York Times that Bill Clinton did not inspire her, nor did LBJ, nor did Jimmy Carter.
This is important, folks.
Remember, Caroline Kennedy, sweet Caroline, a proud liberal.
And that this rare because most liberals are not proud to be liberal.
They try to hide it, they mask it, and they cover it up.
She's not a political activist.
She's not a political pawn.
She's the daughter of JFK and Jackie O, and she is a she.
She is a she.
And the she is not endorsing the she.
She is endorsing the black guy that the she and her husband are trying to destroy.
On the pages of the New York Times.
I know, Mr. Sterley, that was the point.
Most people, most Americans, the last young girl playing under the desk was not Caroline.
That's why I made sure to say that the mess that she made on the desk was milk being spilled on the carpet.
I covered my bases on this.
All right, back to uh Senator McCain.
Uh before we get to this interest, John Fund has a great passage today in Wall Street Journal Peace.
Let's play Audio Sum by 17.
Uh Meet the Press, Tim Russert interviewing Senator McCain.
Russert says if the Senate passed your bill, uh S 1433, the McCain Kennedy immigration bill, would you, as president, sign it?
Yeah, but we the look, the lesson is it isn't one.
It isn't gonna come.
It isn't gonna come.
The lesson is they want the border secured first.
That's the lesson.
But you would sign your bill.
It's not gonna come across my desk.
If pigs fly, uh then uh look at the So it's the bill.
The bill is dead as it is written.
We know that.
We know that.
And the bill is gonna have to be, and I would sign it, securing the borders first and articulating those principles that I did.
That's what we got out of this last very divisive and tough debate.
And we have to get those borders secured.
That's what Americans want first.
Wow.
So he would I would shine it.
I would shine it, but it's not gonna happen, Jim.
It's it's a pig devil pig fi.
Um, but he says he would sign it.
People want the borders secured.
That's what the American people want first.
Um look at, you know, you you you be the judge.
You go ahead and and decipher this as you want, folks.
I've I've had my say here.
Uh Brenda in Sarasota, Florida.
Thank you for calling.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Hi, Russ.
How are you?
Fine, thank you.
I got a vote tomorrow, and I don't want to vote for McCain.
I don't like him.
I want to vote for Matt Romney, but they keep putting these polls on the TV that the only person who could be Hillary is McCain.
And I think that's why a lot of people are voting on it.
I know those that's I I've run into that when I had the argument with the woman in New York at the restaurant.
That's you would don't you want to beat Hillary?
I just went through that.
No.
I mean, not if I'm gonna end up with with a with a um uh a governing situation is gonna destroy the country.
I want the Democrats to get credit for it.
But look at it, what was it uh six months ago, Giuliani was the only one that could beat Hillary nationally.
Ah, you're right.
Okay, so six months.
So all these polls ought to be meaningless.
But Giuliani ought to be the nominee, right?
Don't believe any of those polls on on on who's gonna beat who and who's up nationally, right?
That's so far down the road, none of it is relevant.
I mean, it may be an accurate representation of what people think now, but it's not relevant because the election is not till November.
Right.
And you think Romney can do it.
Obviously.
Yes, of course I th I th I think Mrs. Clinton can be beat, and I think Obama can be beaten.
But we got we're not time to put, you know, the uh the horse before the cart, cart before the horse, whatever the hell it is.
I've never had a horse or a cart, so you know what, though, I think that's why people are voting for McCain.
I don't know one person who likes him.
Well, I know I don't know about that.
I mean, I think a lot of people I I think My family were all republican, but no one likes them.
Now a lot of people have respect for him because of the prisoner of war thing.
But that's different.
Well I have respect for him, but I don't like Allen.
Well then they think he can beat McCain or be beat uh Hillary.
And there's a lot of uh of McCain's supporters, and that's the reason why.
There's now look, I understand our side hates Hillary.
Don't want the Clintons back in there uh for any reason whatsoever, and whatever it takes to keep him out.
Look at if Obama beats her.
Do you realize how happy this country is gonna be that Clintons are have Did you understand both sides because being delirious?
Thank you.
I know.
Hey, drive by a prediction for you.
For those of you at Media Matters for America, you can get a note of this too.
My prediction is uh quite simple, ladies and gentlemen, founded in pure, pure logic.
Uh and it is this.
Remember that picture on the cover of Time magazine that portrayed the African American O. J. Simpson much darker than he actually is.
And remember people said, what the hell is that?
And Time said, hey, shut up.
This is journalistic photo rec photographic license.
No, it's not.
That's not how he looks.
If Time magazine has no compunction about photoshopping a cover picture of O.J. Simpson to make him look blacker than he is.
Don't be surprised, ladies and gentlemen, if in coming Clinton Obama ads he is made to appear darker than he is.
Did you drive bys get that?
And you people at Media Matters for America got it.
Because I look, I know these people.
I know them like every square inch of my glorious naked buddy.
And uh not predicting it.
I'm just telling you, don't be surprised if the next time you see a Clinton look like a still shot in an ad.
Be much easier to doctor a still shot than a whole running piece of video.
Much less expensive.
You see one of those things in Obama looks a little darker than he normally does to you.
Well, remember, we've gone from bull Connor to Bull Clinton.
We have an uncivil war in the Democrat Party, and the Clinton machine is trying to say that blacks stick together and vote for blacks.
And Tony Morrison, who came up with this moniker that Bill Clinton was the first black president, has actually endorsed Obama.
This little rally that uh Ted Kennedy just had.
I watched this thing for Obama.
It was far more important and impressive than anything Oprah did.
And do you notice the white people in the background in that shot?
A lot of white people behind the podium where all of these endorsers happen to speak.
But I have to there was one conclusion that I came to.
And really it is that the Democrats have not changed.
They really have nothing of substance.
They have no ideas that they wish to be honest about.
They don't they don't have any real ideals.
So they they fill themselves with uh with with a lot of candy.
Uh sweet nothings, camelot.
You know, Camelot was a dream.
There was no real Camelot ever on the planet.
And now they want to try to bring to bring to life again something that was a dream, camelot made up by Jackie and the drive-bys to help us deal with the grief of JFK's death.
Uh it's like it's like Obama.
There's no there.
He speaks and he says soaring things, but there's no there.
There's no difference policy-wise between Barack and Mrs. Clinton.
Uh, but they're gonna be they're gonna be hot and heavy here on this uh on this Kennedy rally.
Uh there won't be much news about Hillary here, and they got the State of the Union tonight, because they're all just having orgasms here or to return to Camelot.
Wow.
Uh But it is nothing.
It literally is nothing in terms of policies and so forth.
Now back to Senator McCain.
We'll get to your phone calls here in just a second.
Senator McCain is referenced by John Fund today in the Wall Street Journal.
And basically it is that Samuel J. Alito.
Now you wonder why I'm bringing this up.
This is nominations to the Supreme Court, and McCain said, I don't care what you people think, I'm going to nominate guys like Scalia and Roberts.
Now, McCain has told conservatives that he would he would be happy to appoint the likes of, say, John Roberts in the Supreme Court, but he indicated he might draw the line on a Samuel Alito because, quote, he wore his conservatism on his sleeve, unquote.
Well, I'm here to tell you that if that were true, if Alito had worn his conservatism on his sleeve, he wouldn't have gotten the support of Arlen Specter.
And he did get the support of Arlen Spector.
But see, there we are, this is the problem that the movement conservatives have with Senator McCain.
I mean, it's just this nagging feeling that uh after all of his years of chummily bonding with liberal reporters and garnering favorable media coverage from them that Senator McCain is embarrassed to be seen as too much of a conservative.
And we don't I don't I don't want people who are embarrassed to be conservatives.
I've run into enough of those parties in the Northeast.
I have, and I d I don't I don't want people who are embarrassed about it.
And McCain seems to be.
Uh now, in fairness, Rich O'Lowry at National Review Online quotes Steve Schmid of the McCain campaign, saying that this item in Fund's peace is absolutely false.
Senator McCain was instrumental in helping confirm Alito.
We relied on him a great deal during the confirmation process to reassure the American people Alito was the kind of justice needed.
McCain was a warrior to get Alito on the beach, a bench.
Uh does that deny the claim?
Uh nobody said that McCain didn't work hard for Alito.
What the claim is that McCain said that uh he might draw the line on the likes of a Samuel Alito because he wears his conservatism on his uh on his sleeve.
Uh so uh the question boils down now, did McCain say this or not?
John Funn can help us with this.
Uh and whether he worked for his nomination or not, would McCain have nominated Alito?
I mean, these it may be nitpicking to you, because if you're if you're looking at this from the standpoint of can we beat Hillary and so forth, you mean why does any of this matter?
Nominations to the Supreme Court matter.
Somebody who doesn't want to be seen uh with conservatives or supporting because it might be embarrassing that matters to those of us who are uh in the movement.
Alan, Jacksonville, Florida, nice that you waited.
Welcome to the EIB network, sir.
Hello.
Hey, Rush, thanks for taking my call.
Yes, sir.
Uh first of all, say I appreciate that last caller.
I'm also a Florida voter tomorrow, and I've been getting calls from McCain all weekend, his people saying, you know, they're the only one that can win the election in the fall.
And my response is we haven't put our team together yet, so that that's just not true.
But I had a meeting with my family Saturday night, especially after all the endorsements to McCain and how disheartening all of that was.
I said, look, this is a two-man race.
I mean, Florida is a winner take all state.
If it wasn't, I wouldn't even call it a rush, because everybody could vote who they love, and those delegates can go to those candidates.
But that's not gonna happen in Florida tomorrow.
Either Romney or McCain are going to get all 57 delegates.
So I told my family.
We have to derail the McCain train in Florida on this election.
And what you got to do is you gotta vote Romney.
I'm not saying Romney's the con the most conservative.
Um I'm saying that if you vote for Giuliani or Huckabee or Ron Paul, those votes are not going to count because those candidates right now the polls have Romney and McCain this morning about 30 percent each.
Yeah, well, but there's a Rasmus and Paul.
These polls be very careful with this.
These polls have uh uh there's Erasmus and Paul that has uh Romney up 33, I think to 27 uh over McCain.
Look, I I I want to step in.
I don't want anybody telling anybody how to vote.
I am studiously avoiding that myself.
I have not done, I've not endorsed anybody.
I'm not telling anybody how to vote, and I really don't want any of you to do it either, because it's it's going to get me in trouble.
I'm going to need I'm going to have to grant some equal time here to McCain people who want to counter this.
I just, I cannot have to afford to have anything here that sounds like a campaign commercial or advocacy when it gets to that point, telling people, you know, don't vote for Huckabee, don't vote for You vote for who you want to, folks.
That's what this is all about.
That's what primaries are for.
We sort all this.
You vote for who you want to.
I have I have full respect that people in this audience have independent minds, will come to their own conclusions about things, and that's what we don't want any mind-numbed robots here.
You uh you're free to vote however you wish.
Uh we'll we'll just we'll go from there and deal with what happens as it does, because that will be the uh the reality.
Uh but one thing to notice, and I do want to point this out, it is this.
The McCain camp thinks that the opposition to the to their candidate comes basically from me and a couple three others in talk radio, uh and perhaps some other elevated places in the media.
And this I don't think, even when I've when I've been around people who are fervent McCain supporters, uh, and when I say, well, what about this issue and that issue, and what about always trying to undermine the conservative side of the thing, but they don't care, but none of none of that matters to them.
It's the they got to beat Hillary, and they think he's the only one that can do it.
But they, I don't think the McCain camp, a lot of other people understand just how um betrayed uh a lot of genuine conservative voters in this country feel after eight years of Senator McCain interacting with President Bush on a number of issues,
seemingly uh eager to undermine the conservative position on various pieces of legislation and other items that may not even be up for legislation or legislative consideration.
Uh there's more out there of this nature than I think across the country.
I'm not talking about Florida, just across the country, uh, then I think people understand because most of the people who are assessing all this are the inside the beltway D.C. establishment types uh who are as unfamiliar with what's going on in Tennessee, Missouri, Iowa, Arkansas, Colorado, as they are with what's going on in Darfur.
Hey, I got another question here, folks.
Uh question rooted in tradition and history.
If Hillary does win the presidency, will a ball gown that Bill Clinton wears to the inaugural ball be put in the Smithsonian as all first ladies uh ball gowns, inaugural ball gowns are.
You know, it's a tradition here that we uh that we do that.
I wonder who will design uh Clinton's ball gown.
Vera Wang, Donak Karen.
Just released a statewide Florida poll on the Republican presidential primary from some outfit called Datamar.com, and I must confess, no offense to them, I never heard of them.
Uh statewide poll to Florida voters for the presidential primary released today by Datamar Inc.
shows Romney at 35.6%, McCain in second place with 23.2 percent.
Rudy Giuliani, third place, 14.8.
Governor Huckabee at 13.2%.
The findings are based on a January 25th through 27th survey of Florida voters, 492 sample size, the margin of error plus or minus 4.4 percent.
I don't know about these Republican polls, but I I have to tell you, if if I if I were in a polling business, uh running these Democrat polls in South Carolina, New Hampshire, I've got to ask myself, it's embarrassing how wrong and off the mark they have been on the Democrat side.
I mean, it they haven't even close.
Some of these people blew it by 17 points.
Some polls blew it by 17 points, others blew it by 10.
Now, I don't know.
They seem to have been fairly close on the Republican side.
But these polls are all over the ballpark.
Zogby's got it tied at 3030.
Rasmussen has it 3327 Romney, and now this bunch, Dedamar has it 35 and a half McCain, or Romney and 23.2 McCain.
So somebody's gonna be right.
Well, and unless we have a poll that says McCain wins.
We don't have one of those yet.
We got McCain tied.
We don't have a McCain win.
I'm talking about the Florida primary, not these national things that uh that don't mean anything right now.
All right, who's next?
Fabian in Staten Island.
Nice to have you on the program.
Hello.
Hello, Russian.
Thank you for taking my call.
Yes.
Just wanted to um speak briefly about that photo again from Judge Report of uh Hillary.
And in your defense, I remember when you first made your comments on that photo.
It was back in December, around the time when actress Jennifer Love Hewitt was caught by the paparazzi on a Hawaiian beach where she was judged as being fat.
And you brilliant brilliantly coined the term culture of perfection that is um imposed upon women.
And here's this young actress who wears a size two as being judged as fat.
Now, how is this culture of perfection going to look upon a sixty-year-old woman in the White House who is aging?
And you are saying it almost in that context, if I remember what I was, I was.
But look at they brought it up for a different reason this time.
Let me go back and get it.
Uh where's the Democrat stack here?
I don't I appreciate you wanting to defend me here, but I really don't need it.
Let's see.
Well, I don't know where I put it.
It's somewhere in one of these stacks.
Uh but the the ABC report on this stuff now is that uh the question I asked was on everyone's mind, not just mine at the time.
It was on everybody's mind.
And I went beyond the the just the surface appearance of Mrs. Clinton and asked some very serious questions about how she actually looks beyond the superficial.
Uh and you know, she looks silly.
She looks ridiculous.
She looks mean.
She looks put out based on some of the things that are happening uh in the uh in the in the midst of the campaign.
And that was the point of bringing ABC brings this thing back up again over the weekend or today, changing the context a little bit, saying there's a lot of people rushing the question I was asking when they weren't.
I was the only one asking it, they really ripped me for it.
Well, some did.
Others took it and ran with it and said, you know, this is something we got to deal with.
Because our culture is a culture of perfection.
But today I went beyond the surface.
I dug deep to get to the real looks of Mrs. Clinton.
Silly, incompetent, angry, childish, mean.
This is how she is looking.
She looks incapable.
Her husband has to go out and campaign for her.
Uh she looks the other way.
When her husband starts playing the race card in the uncivil war and doesn't do anything to stop it.
And none of these looks that can be attributed to her are flattering at all.
But none of them have to do with her physicality either.
Here, Jenny, San Antonio Tech.
Jenny, uh one of my all-time top ten favorite female names.
How are you?
Hey, great.
It's it's just wonderful to talk to you.
And um been a fan for a long time.
Listen, I just wanted to bring up this point.
I just can't believe how short people's memories are, because in 1992, the press was continually telling us that Bob Dole was the only candidate the Republicans could run again, you know, in the election.
96, you mean.
Yes.
And uh um, you know, I I just I that's the same feeling I get when they're telling us about McCain.
You know, you know what you're saying is but really what it was in 1996, it was the old war horse's turn.
Bob Dole, he'd hung in there, been a war veteran, he had worked so yet he had stood by George W. Bush even though they had been enemies.
It was his turn.
Uh, and we're basically that's what it means.
It's McCain's turn.
He got so unfairly treated in Flor in South Carolina in 2000.
Great war hero.
Uh it's uh it's his turn.
Uh that's that's really uh, I think what a lot of people think when well, some people actually do think he's the only one that could beat Mrs. Clinton.
But there is a uh a facture here, a factor here that uh it is his turn, and that's not a reason to do it, is it?
Okay, another hour in the can.
It's finished.
It's soon gonna be transmitted and transferred to our secret warehouse location, harsing uh artifacts of the Limbaugh Broadcast Museum.
