| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
The views expressed by the host of this program make more sense than anything anybody else out there happens to be saying because the views expressed by the host of this program are documented to be almost always right 98.8% of the time.
We are having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have.
Rush Limbaugh and the Excellence in Broadcasting Network.
And Operation Chaos continues.
Howard Kurtz today, last rights for the Hillary campaign.
You notice all the religious terminology that's being used here to describe the fate of Democrats.
Carville's out there calling Bill Richardson a uh a a Judas.
No, Snardley, there are there are no what rumors that I've been passing around walking around money in Pennsylvania.
I'm not I haven't been to Pennsylvania.
Last time I was in Pennsylvania, I was in Philadelphia.
When was that?
I just no, it was yeah, it was October.
Uh and I had no idea any of this was going to be going on.
No, I'm not passing who's telling you I'm passing walking around money around.
Wait till you hear about this in Ohio.
Where they're threatening to indict me, ladies and gentlemen, for Operation Chaos.
All right, 800-282-2882.
If you want to be on the program, email address L Rushbow at EIBNet.com.
Question, will Kwame Kilpatrick resign and run for governor in New York?
This is the pressing question we have here at the EIB network.
This guy Patterson, this new governor in New York, he's he's all mad now at some advisor who told him to get it all out there about the affairs.
But this look it can I get serious about this for just a second?
In all candor.
You notice when all these Democrats uh go down, there's no media effort to paint the whole Democrat Party generally as unethical or corrupt or what have you.
I mean, we've got Elliott Spitzer gone.
We've got Patterson admitting to serial infidelity, but only after he is sworn in as governor.
We have Kwame Kilpatrick, the mayor of Detroit indicted.
Uh where are the stories about the demise of the Democrat Party?
We are not you can't even find in most stories, at least before the program started, you couldn't, that Kwame Kilpatrick was a Democrat.
In a lot of the stories about Elliot Spitzer, you couldn't find that he was a Democrat.
And you know darn well that if this were a Republican series of resignations or indictments, they'd be running front page stories for weeks on end about the demise, the Democrat Party, how unethical and corrupt that it has become.
Remember Makaka, remember Mark Foley.
But no such stories here about the uh about the Democrats.
And just to remind you, uh Kwame Kilpatrick, he is married, right?
He is married.
His wife was not there, folks.
She was not standing by his side at the press conference in Detroit.
Does he have kids?
I don't know if Kwame Kilpatrick has uh has kids or not, but he does have a wife, and she wasn't there.
She is mad about this.
Uh text messaging and this having an affair and they lying about it and perjury and number of other things.
And if he's convicted uh on all this, uh he could he could spend 15 years in jail.
Back to Operation Chaos at the moment, at this moment in time, a snapshot today, March 24th, 08.
The Democrats are screwed.
The latest news from the Rasmussen tracking poll, very encouraging for Senator McCain.
Obama's favorable unfavorable uh has gone from 46 to 51.
Uh uh is it's uh all-time low, by the way, uh demonstrating no ability yet to staunch the bleeding from the uh from the race speech.
Now, in the Democrat Party, it's a different it's a different picture.
He's pulled back ahead of uh Mrs. Clinton in the Democrat Party primary polling, but I'm talking about national polls now.
Uh the national tracking poll, his uh his unfavorable favorable, he's 46 favorable, 51 unfavorable.
Uh this rivals Mrs. Clinton now.
Uh And I think there's one of the reasons they trotted out Bill Richardson with the Foom Man Shoe Beard.
But here's evidence of what's happened with white voters.
This is from Richard Baer at AmericanTinker.com.
In Arkansas, McCain leads Clinton 50 to 43.
McCain leads Obama 59 to 30.
In Kentucky, McCain leads Clinton 53-43, destroys Obama in Kentucky, 64 to 28.
Lower middle income whites have deserted Obama in one Pennsylvania poll.
Clinton now leads Obama by 26 points.
She has now taken the lead from him in North Carolina.
And he he owned that state.
Rasmussen national numbers now are Clinton 46, Obama 44.
And head to head in the general election, the Rasmussen tracking poll is McCain 49, Obama 41, and McCain 49, Clinton 43.
Now, according to all of this, there is uh there is no question that Hillary is the stronger general election candidate.
She's more competitive in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Florida.
Obama does better than Hillary and states the Democrats are going to lose anyway.
Georgia, Wyoming, Kansas, and Nebraska.
Mr. Baer also points out some other good news.
Only Arkansas among Southern states is really in play.
Uh and now McCain leads even Clinton there.
McCain very well positioned in Florida.
Senator Lieberman will get Jewish votes for him.
Veterans, Cubans, Northern Panhandle Whites don't like Obama or Clinton.
And Virginia surprisingly strong for McCain, who holds a solid lead over both Democrats there.
Now the New York Times, sorry, not the New York Times.
This is Gary Reese and the Florida Insider.
And this is uh this is four days ago.
It's it's it's the 20th of March, and I mentioned this on Friday, right before we left.
Uh this is right toward the end of the program, and I I saved this because I wanted to go over this uh again on Monday when uh when I oh Mr. and Mrs. Kwame have three kids.
And the three kids weren't there either.
And Mrs. Kwame wasn't there, only Mr. Kwame was.
She's mad.
She is mad, and she's not doing a Silda Spitzer.
And she's not doing a Hillary Clinton.
Uh 82%.
This is this is this is polling after Obama's speech last Thursday on race, and the Reverend Jeremiah Wright, 82% knew about uh Obama's relationship with Wright and about Obama's speech about race in America.
And of those who knew about the controversy in the speech, 52% said it made them less likely to vote Obama.
Fifty-six percent of blacks get this now.
Fifty-six percent of blacks said Obama's speech made them less likely to vote for him.
This is an insider advantage poll, by the way, uh, from Gary Reese.
Barack Obama's speech about race on, I guess it was Tuesday last week, impressed many who witnessed it or read it, but most of America did neither, and many of them white and black were less persuaded of the speech's capacity to heal racial wounds or to put the issue of race behind Obama as he continues his quest for the White House.
It looked the poll numbers in this story are really bad.
The disturbing numbers for Obama are the independent voters by 56 to 13 percent.
Independents said they're less likely to vote for him because of the speech.
Now that's now.
And it's a snapshot of now.
Uh and I I think this is what the the Obama internals were showing them, and that's why they went out and reached out to Richardson.
I don't think there's any question about it.
Uh and the way that thing looked on uh on Friday with Barry and Richardson, it looked like it you could have been looking at the potential uh Democrat ticket.
Now the Gallup Daily poll, which is just the Democrat Party, Barack Obama has quickly made up the deficit he faced with Hillary Clinton earlier this week, uh, with the latest Gallup poll daily tracking update on the Democrat nomination preferences showing 48% of Democrats favoring Obama and 45% favoring Clinton.
She uh she was leading in this after the speech and going up to it.
Obama has come back on the Democrat side.
Now this is this is a uh this is a Gallup poll.
Uh and they say here that uh Obama's campaign clearly suffered in recent days from negative press, mostly centered around his association with uh Jeremiah Wright.
Uh perhaps as a result Clinton moved into the lead in Gallup's Wednesday release covering March 16th to 18th polling, but Obama has now edged back ahead of Clinton due to a strong showing for him in Friday night's polling, uh, which is obviously a result of the press conference and the appearance with Bill Richardson on the well, not on the ticket, but the uh the endorsement.
Um both Democrats eventually closer to McCain in the latest update on registered voters' general election preferences.
McCain holds just a two-point edge over both, 46 to 44 over Obama, 47 to 45 over Hillary.
Uh this again is according to uh to Gallup.
So the uh it remains as we all know it will, which remains highly uh uh fluid in a great state of flux.
And remember, uh polling this far out on the general election is just what it is to a snapshot of things today, uh, and doesn't really mean much because the I mean, we still haven't gotten the op the end of Operation Chaos here yet.
Operation Cha still has not.
I mean, the the big the big artillery.
The big firepower of Operation Chaos is yet to happen.
Uh and that will affect obviously uh uh these polls down the lone uh down the line as well.
All right, quick timeout.
Uh we'll be back.
More phone calls, more sound bites, more of everything, plus things that I don't even know are going to happen after this.
Okay, back to the phones we go as we kick off a brand new week of broadcast excellence.
Uh back to Norfolk, Virginia.
This is Mike.
Thank you for waiting, sir.
I really appreciate it.
Hey, Rush.
Uh uh longtime listener, uh first time call of Hampton Rose Law Enforcement Ditto's too you.
Thank you, sir, very much.
I appreciate it.
This weekend, uh read in the paper how Senator Clinton uh referenced a 1996 visit to Bosnia.
She was sent because the president couldn't go.
And she made representative house they landed under sniper fire and had a duck underneath uh bullets to get into the car and rush off the tarmac.
And I'm kind of wondering, you know, I did some research back on the internet and I didn't see anything that referenced to that.
So kind of sounds like she's some of some falsehoods there.
And you know, this uh Keystone cops, three Suges uh Democratic Party here, continue to shoot themselves in the foot.
And why anybody calling her on it?
Why nobody's gonna be able to do that?
Well, in fact, the Washington Post the Washington Post has today, the Washington Post blog um has a uh a fact checker uh post, and they've fact-checked this, and they've given Mrs. Clinton four Pinocchios on this story.
But I the thing that troubles me about this is and that troubles me that amazes me, uh, this is old news.
I I I can remember talking about this two or three weeks ago, maybe even longer.
Um the you know, Mrs. Clinton, she told everybody she had a corkscrew down in a plane because there was all kinds of enemy fire when she landed.
She had a run for cover because bullets were flying everywhere.
None of it was true.
There was a recognition ceremony, it was safe as it could be.
There were no hostilities going on anywhere near where she was.
It was all a lie, and I remember talking about this three or four weeks ago.
I don't even know why it's come back up again, but I was directed today to this Washington Post blog, which they've fact-checked it, and they've given her four Pinocchios, meaning out of five, which talks about how big a lie it is.
But what I don't know what's bringing this up now, and you say nobody's talking about a lot of people have been talking about this for quite a while.
That's the first time I've seen it.
Uh I read in the newspaper this weekend.
I never seen anything about it, and I was like, that's that's something different.
I never remember anything about that.
Snerdley is telling me she repeated the story even after it had been fact-checked and been shown to be a lie.
Look, you know, there's a lot of stuff happening with the Clintons.
We're finding out all these these documents that uh Judicial Watch uh got from a Freedom of Information Act request.
We find out basically after the debacle of health care in 1993, she didn't do anything.
She didn't do anything of any substance whatsoever until the impeachment stuff came up.
She was managing the Paula Jones case, and she was managing Bimbo eruption.
She was managing uh the Lewinsky situation, but she really she didn't have much to do with anything after the health care debacle.
Uh and I I think that uh you know this this is stuff that the Clintons wanted to avoid Because this goes directly to her claim that uh she had all kinds of experience.
She'd be ready on day one.
When the phone rings at three in the morning, you want somebody who's the phone never rang at three in the morning, according to these records.
Uh so I mean she never answered a phone at three o'clock in the morning official for the anybody knows of, neither did Clinton.
He probably wasn't home by then anyway, and then the phone didn't ring, so who knows?
But all I remain a little puzzled uh at the surprise factor when people learn that the Clintons lie.
As though, wow.
And I know it's not that.
No, it's Rush, we know they lie, but here's proof here's proof.
Yeah, there's been proof for twenty years didn't matter.
Um now all of a sudden it um it does.
But anyway, I uh we'll we'll link to this Washington Post uh story, the the the uh fact checker at rushlimbaugh.com later this afternoon so that you can uh read all the details of it.
I've been through it before.
Lincoln, Nebraska, Jacob, you're next on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hey Rice, pleasure to be on the show.
I've been a long time listener, and this is the first time I've gotten through it.
I was a rush baby, actually.
Well, welcome, uh welcome home.
Uh I have uh I have a question I'd just be interested in your thoughts on.
Um you have um understandably been fairly tough on the uh superdelegate situation with the Democratic Party.
I'm I'm not terribly well informed on it.
So I remember back in 2000, I was listening a lot then, and um I I remember the uh electoral college and all that was uh you you really promoted it then, and I mean I remember that was a big deal.
I I learned a lot about it back then as I'm sure most of the country did when it really came to matter.
And I'm just wondering if if you would talk about uh what you see the difference philosophically, why the electoral college is good for American democracy, uh, but why the uh superdelicate system in the uh Democratic Party is bad for American Doctor Wells.
But you can't you can't compare the two.
The Electoral College is constitutional.
Okay.
And the Electoral College was there for the proportionality of uh votes uh uh uh uh around America.
It has nothing to do with uh not trusting the uh the average voter.
It may have at the in in its origins.
They were worried about how many people were actually informed in the early days of the country, not that they were stupid.
Uh, but the superdelegate thing is uh is a Democrat Party creation.
And here's what's interesting about it to me.
It was created uh well, it's conceived in the 70s to prevent the party from nominating another McGovern, who lost in a 49-state landslide.
And the superdelegates are the party elders, the supposed elites, the smartest guys in the room to make sure that the Democrat Party voters don't screw it up.
Uh and of course, you you can look at it and say, okay, the superdelegates are the equivalent of the Electoral College, and the voters are the people.
And the Electoral College, superdelegates come in and say, uh-uh-uh-uh, you guys that's but that's not true because the superdelegates are not apportioned by virtue of popular vote.
The superdelegates are apportioned by proportionality.
It's it's such a convoluted thing, you would not you there's no comparison at all to the Electoral College.
And the Democrats aren't even consistent on it.
If you mentioned 2000, back in 2000, Al Gore won the popular vote, but lost the Electoral College vote.
And the Democrats then started talking about we got to get rid of the Electoral College.
Well, this is not what the founding fathers intended.
This is horrible.
Our guy got most votes than he's not going to be the president because Supreme Court chose Bush.
You remember all that.
Then in 2004, John Kerry lost Ohio by something like uh what, a hundred thousand votes.
So the Democrats started and he lost the popular vote by four million.
This is key.
You still with me here.
Yes.
It's hard to follow numbers on radio.
Two thousand.
Remember now in two thousand, the Democrats wanted to get rid of the Electoral College.
In two thousand four, they desperately wanted to use it again.
Because Kerry lost by four million popular votes and a hundred thousand votes in Ohio.
They immediately started charging voter fraud, and Kerry's out there saying, if I could have just turned around fifty-five thousand votes, I'd be president today.
Oh, really?
If he could have turned around 55,000 votes, he would have won Ohio's electoral votes and been elected president despite losing in general in uh by four million votes.
So the lesson here, Uh, Jacob, is that the Democrats, they don't have any rules, they just have customs and traditions.
And whatever it takes to win for whoever they want to win is whatever they support at the time.
In 2000, they wanted to dump the electoral college.
In 2004, they were hoping to use it along with charges of voter fraud.
The superdeleg I don't, you know, you say I oppose the superdelegates.
I don't oppose superdelegates.
I'm not a Democrat.
They can do what they want.
I frankly love the superdelegate situation in the sense that it's helping us to promote Operation Chaos.
Talent on loan from God, a national treasure, a living legend, a way of life.
Learn it, love it, live it.
On Friday in Charlotte, North Carolina, Bill Clinton at a campaign event for his wife spoke.
And here's a portion of what he said.
I think it'd be a great thing if we had an election where you had two people who love this country and were devoted to the interest of the country, and people could actually ask themselves who's right on these issues.
Instead of all this other stuff, it always seems to intrude itself on our politics.
This has caused a fire storm and is helping to fuel Operation Chaos.
I think it'd be a great thing if we had an election.
You know, where had two people love this country, devoted to the interest of the country.
He's saying, I w we need my wife and McCain.
Because they had two people love this country.
Now there's a real reason that he really I mean the Clintons are out there showering McCain with all kinds of great platitudes, because they know.
They think anyway, they think it'd be a piece of cake to take on McCain because McCain's out there saying it can be honorable.
There won't be any attacks on the Democrat presidential nominee, whoever it is, and that's music to the Clintons' ears.
You know, that's just that is a sign of weakness that the Clintons will just pounce on.
Uh but this has been interpreted by people as saying that uh Obama doesn't love his country.
May not be a patriot out there.
And so the day after comparing Clinton to Joseph McCarthy, uh Obama supporter Tony McPeak, and that's how he that's how he responded originally to Clinton's statement about Obama is that this is McCarthyesque.
Uh Tony McPeak stands next to Obama at a rally in Medford, Oregon, and explains why he said it and doesn't back down.
President Clinton was speaking to a group of veterans yesterday in North Carolina, and he said something that frankly astonished me.
Let me say first, we will have such an election this year.
Because both Barack Obama and John McCain are great patriots who love this country and are devoted to it.
So is Hillary Clinton.
Any suggestion to the contrary is flat wrong.
I'm saddened to see a president employ these kind of tactics.
He, of all people, should know better because he was the target of exactly the same kind of tactic when he first ran 16 years ago.
So the uh Obama campaign not backing down McKe McPeak, not backing down uh Clinton once again.
I'm people are gonna ask the question does he really want his wife to win this?
Or does he want her to lose?
Um that's you know, nothing that happens with the Clintons is a coincidence.
Never forget that.
Sunday Unmeet the Press, Tim Russert spoke with John Meachum Newsweek about the Democrat primary race.
Uh Russert said, where we are, where we headed, is there a way for this Democrat Party to unify to this kind of primary?
Are we in a situation where in order for Hillary Clinton to be successful and appeal to the superdelegate, she has to win a nomination even though she won fewer elected delegates?
Depending on where you end up with the as you're saying, the popular vote or the the fledged delegates, you do have the capacity for a kind of corrupt bargain charge.
Uh echoes of 1824, which I think we should always be talking about uh every Easter.
Yeah, I apologize for that.
But uh John, 1824, tell us who it was quickly.
Well, very quickly.
Uh Andrew Jackson won the popular vote.
Uh Henry Clay threw a support to John Quincy Adams, Adams Becomes president four years later, running on a chart, running on a campaign, saying that was a corrupt bargain.
Jackson takes over, founds the modern Democratic Party, and here we sit.
So the Democrat Party is basically founded on corruption and remains corrupt to this day.
But the this is Operation Chaos.
These people are worried.
Are the Democrats heading for Armageddon?
Can they unify after all of this?
And here's the problem that they're going to have.
The problem they're going to have unifying is that uh Obama has become the candidate of race.
There are so many people who are for Obama.
If he doesn't get it, they're going to be fit to be tied, and either won't vote or they'll vote for McCain.
There are a number of people who want Clinton to get this, and if she doesn't get it, they're going to be fit to be tied and either sit out or vote for McCain.
This all this talk of unity, uh here we have again.
Let's just bring this down to real life terms.
We have the leading Democrat presidential primary contender Barack Obama campaigning on what?
Hope, change, unity.
We can all get along.
We can all come together, and we can do what's best for all of us to reach the mountaintop.
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
A can't even unify their own party.
How in the name of Sam Hill, and there was a Sam Hill.
How in the name of Sam Hill are they going to unify the country?
The whole thing is an illusion.
I did a great, great monologue last week on the whole concept of unity anyway.
I mean, for crying out loud, folks, I'm sound like a broken record here.
Obama can't even unify his own inner circle.
He's got people in his inner circle that are fit to be tied themselves.
Pastor's perennially angry, his wife's never happy.
Uh well, recently was happy because of his presidential campaign.
They're worried about Armageddon.
They're worried about the party self-destructing.
In the meantime, they're running a campaign on unity for the country.
It's a it's it's a uh it's a pipe dream.
By the way, one thing here about uh about Senator McCain, Senator McCain has uh has not wrapped up the Chuck Hagel endorsement yet, and I wanted to uh uh mention this to you.
Hegel was on this week with Stephanopoulos on Sunday, and Stephanopoulos said to him, Look, Senator McCain's a good friend of yours.
Why haven't you endorsed him?
When I work for someone or commit to someone, I want to be behind that person in every way I can.
I've obviously got some differences with John on the Iraq War.
That's no secret.
I want to understand a little more about foreign policy, where he'd want to go.
Uh certainly doesn't put me in Obama or Clinton's camp, but John and I have some pretty fundamental uh disagreements.
Well, I'm telling you what, if a if a moderate independent candidate like McCain cannot get the Hegel endorsement, where are we?
This is troubling, ladies and gentlemen.
This is this is puzzling to me as well.
Unless, of course, Senator Hagel's holding out for a pipe dream uh for his own third party candidacy or independent candidacy somewhere down the line.
Uh speaking of Senator McCain.
I'm sure I'm sure you people have seen this by now.
The uh New York Times, Elizabeth Bumiller, uh, a picture of the haughty John Kerry, and uh Senator McCain sitting somewhere in uh deep leather chairs, McCain slouching like he's fatigued and tired.
The caption of the picture, Senators John Carey left.
John McCain meeting with reporters in 2002 as they discussed automobile mileage standards.
The headline of the story, McCain twice flirted with the Democrat Party.
Candidate considered leaving the Republican Party as a McCain in 2001 and running with Carey in 2004.
Uh now, as I say, I'm sure you guys have all seen this, but it's still it still stuns me.
Assume what?
Well, because well, that's right, it's a New York Times.
Maybe I shouldn't assume people have seen it.
But it's been it's been out there since last night.
I mean, the news, you know, if it's it's in the newspaper today, but it's well, the drive-by's have not made it news yet.
That's uh that's true.
Because the drive-by's are occupied trying to hold their own party together.
The drive-by's are trying to get the Clinton sitcom canceled.
So maybe, okay, Snergley may have a point.
Maybe you haven't seen this.
Here's how the story is by Elizabeth Bumiller, and here's how it opens.
Senator John McCain never fails to call himself a conservative Republican as he campaigns as his party's presumptive presidential nominee.
He often adds he was a foot soldier in the Reagan Revolution, and that he believes on the in the bedrock conservative principles of small government, low taxes, and the rights of the unborn.
What Mr. McCain almost never mentions are two extraordinary moments in his political past that are at odds with the candidate of the present.
His discussions in 2001 with Democrats about leaving the Republican Party and his conversations in 2004 with Senator Kerry, the haughty Senator Kerry who served in Vietnam about becoming his running mate on the Democrat presidential ticket.
Now there are widely divergent versions of both episodes, depending on whether Democrats or Mr. McCain and his advisors are telling the story.
The Democrats, including Kerry, say that not only did McCain express interest, but that it was his camp that initially reached out to them about being Kerry's vice president.
And McCain's denying that.
But uh the Kerry camp, no, that we got a call from uh from from uh from McCain.
And you know that Kerry very publicly proudly said that he was considering McCain.
This 2001 business, you know, I had forgotten that.
But this is a result of how steamed he was over the South Carolina primary uh and losing the nomination to Bush in uh in 2000.
Remember they had the straight talk express was heading on down the highway, and the uh the reporters on it were having the best time, and so was McCain, and the New Hampshire primary came along, McCain aced that.
But the whole thing got derailed in South Carolina over Bob Jones University and a couple of rumors some people put out about McPhane.
Point is he was livid.
He was fit to be tied.
Uh and this is why some people still to this day think he's got it in for the Republican Party.
That's why he crosses the aisle and makes deals with Democrats.
Uh so these two occasions, New York Times writing about it today.
I I'm I guess McCain Cam is aware.
I would hope so that they that they better be aware what's in store for them.
Uh once the Democrats have their nominee and so forth.
This this is just a little little bitty tidbit of Yeah, I know there's stories about the Keating Five out there today, too.
This is this is uh this is just a little heads up about what's coming Senator McCain's way once the Democrats iron out their stuff and Operation Chaos uh has come to a conclusion.
But it's still all of this stuns me.
It literally stuns me that a guy, Senator McCain, who has spent years criticizing his own party and thought seriously about leaving his own party, is now the leader of it.
Ha, we are back, Rush Limbaugh, the excellence in broadcasting network, the limbaugh institute for advanced conservative studies.
Uh we go to Philadelphia.
Carl, I'm glad you called, sir.
You are up next.
Rush, rush, rush, rush, rush, rush.
This operation chaos that you have is really ridiculous and it's stupid.
And it's what we call in sports on sportsman like conduct.
Now, Rush, it's when the Democrat win the election.
I'm on Senator Obama supporter.
I can't uh uh I campaign one of them when they win the election in in November, you're gonna be partially responsible.
You and all these other idiots, Republicans who decide to switch over.
You are gonna be ten percent responsible for putting us in the White House.
So the more you keep this up, the more it's putting us closer and closer to the White House.
I appreciate you doing this.
Well, I was gonna say, Carl, you call up here, you start ripping me.
Say that I'm being a bad sport, that it's ridiculous, that it's stupid, unsportsmanlike, and now you say you hope I keep doing it.
Yeah, I hope you keep doing it.
Because what is what are you doing?
You are itching us closer and closer to the White House because We all know Let me tell you something.
If you want us to keep doing it, Carl, you don't call the people doing it idiots.
You have just insulted the people doing this that are going to put you in the White House.
You've just called them idiots.
You better take it back.
The Republicans that you have are switching over.
Look, if I'm a Democrat, I'm voting for my man.
I ain't switching over it.
And so all these people that are switching over Rush when Hillary over Rock is in the White House.
We're going to call and thank you all because y'all are really having to call.
You should stop this, Rush, really.
This is really, really out of bounds.
It's really, really stupid.
And I'm not sure.
You're not making sense, Carl.
I want you to make you're not making sense.
If this is going to help you, you should not be telling me to stop it.
We don't really need to.
Hey, we don't really need for you all to do this because we can beat Johnmy Kane.
I was going to ask you, how in the world is Operation?
How is Operation Chaos going to guarantee the election of Obama?
Because people eventually are going to get tired of you all coming on the radio, bashing Obama.
You Hannity, Beck, all you guys are bashing Obama.
The American people, you have already put the information out about Jeremiah Wright, and you're still pounding on it.
What you should have done is let the people, American people, make that decision.
We are the American people are going to get tired of hearing this stuff over and over.
There's other issues bigger to be talking about.
Wait a second.
Wait a second.
That you're just telling me that you're really bugged by Jeremiah Wright.
You know it can hurt Obama.
No, I'm not sure.
That's what you're telling me.
You are attempting the usual intimidate the host tricks.
But I've seen all these tricks.
I have seen all these tricks.

Would you believe me if I told you that existing home sales rose in February by 2.9%.
Existing home sales rose two point.
Would you believe it's true, folks?
It is true.
