Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 Podcast.
Excuse me just a minute here, uh, ladies and gentlemen.
Can somebody tell me where the official program observer is?
There you are.
There you are.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Right, right.
Little liberation theology going on back there with you.
Anyway, greetings, my friends, and welcome, what a what a day this is shaping up to be.
What a weekend it was.
Rush Limbaugh, the Excellence in Broadcasting Network, a full week of broadcast excellence just for you.
The telephone number if you want to be on the program today, 800-282-288-2 and the email address, L Rushmow at EIB net.com.
There's still up in arms out in Denver on purpose.
Senator Salazar, one of the original signers of the Harry Reed smear letter, has sent yet another letter to my uh syndication partners at Clear Channel asking that I be reprimanded for my comments about the Democrat National Convention in Denver.
Uh when are these people going to learn?
I wonder, Senator Salazar, if you're going to send a note to Doug Wilder, who said that Chicago would be nothing compared to what Denver's going to be if Obama doesn't get the nomination.
And it looks like he might not.
And it won't be because of me, and it won't be because of Hillary.
It'll be because if he doesn't get the nomination, it's going to be because of Jeremiah Wright.
This guy, folks, I mean, the i i i unless Obama comes out and totally denounces Wright in all in unequivocal terms, he's going to have huge problems.
This I watched some of Reverend Wright this morning at the National Press Club.
It seems obvious to me that he's doing everything he can to wipe out Obama's candidacy.
And I'll tell you why I think it is.
I think that people like Reverend Wright, and I think there are a lot of other race business hustlers out there, by the way, who think this are really upset that if a black candidate is elected president that they're going to be somehow diminished in their in their in their uh task at keeping everybody in their flocks all revved up and angry about the ages old Senate slavery and the ongoing discrimination.
And so it appears to me.
You look at Reverend Wright, listen to what he says, and analyze it from the context or perspective of what's best for him, which is clearly all he's interested in.
What's best for him is that if Obama loses, because then it's easier for him to say, see, the white power structure doesn't want a black man to rise to the pinnacle of power in the United States of America.
And it would certainly fuel Reverend Wright's future and continue to help him raise money and keep people, you know, whipped up into a frenzy.
Uh it very that he's not helpful.
Whatever he thinks he's doing, it is not helpful to Barack Obama.
We have sound bites coming up.
Howard Dean has also changed his tune.
Howard Dean, up until today, you know, Howard Dean was saying that the superdelegates have to make up their minds by June as to who's going to win this primary.
Now Howard Dean is telling Obama and Hillary one of them's gonna have to quit in June.
Now that's a far cry from getting the superdelegates to commit in June and to solve this.
If this is true, what it tells me is that uh Howard Dean having major problems getting a superdelegates in line, and so now he's throwing the onus back on the candidates.
You guys gotta quit.
One of you guys have to quit.
McCain has done a 180 now, I wonder why, and said, since Obama has mentioned right, and since Obama said race is clearly part of the campaign, McCain says it's okay now for him to comment on this.
I don't buy that explanation for one minute.
I think that what happened when McCain turned on his own party, and when he he just he lashed out at the North Carolina Republican Party and acted like they're idiots and they're not listening to him.
And they're they're they're just they're they're not based in reality and so forth.
I think he heard about it from everybody.
I I think he heard about how wrongheaded that was from a lot of people, uh, both in and outside of his campaign.
Uh and and he uh what he said was he's still not gonna get involved in this himself, but he understands now that other people will, uh, meaning Republican state party organizations and what have you.
So we're gonna touch on these uh items and a lot more, but there's a big Supreme Court decision today, too, and this is really, really big.
And I want to pass this on to you.
The Supreme Court ruled today, and it's funny to read the uh the AP version of this.
Uh the Supreme Court ruled today that states can require voters to produce photo ID without violating their constitutional rights, comma, validating Republican-inspired voter ID laws.
In a splintered six to three rule.
There's nothing splintered about this, and the lead opinion was written by John Paul Stevens.
He he he's he's huge liberal on this court.
He joined in with the majority here, six to three in favor.
Uh the court upheld Indiana's strict photo ID requirement, which Democrats and civil rights groups said would deter poor older and minority voters from casting ballots.
Its backers said that it was needed to uh deter fraud.
It's exactly what it'll do.
It will mean that anti-voter fraud efforts this fall will be easier.
I had an email exchange back and forth with John Fund today at the Wall Street Journal, who's been following this story.
And there are there's another element here.
The Democrat Senate, which has uh in this instance being led by Barack Obama, has shut down the Federal Election Commission, preventing them from taking any enforcement action because they're short a member.
And there hasn't been any action on replacing the member who is absent, that there's a vacancy at the FEC, and the sole reason for that uh is that one of one of Bush's appointees had supported voter ID laws once.
And so he was not allowed to be seated.
That excuse is now blown out of the water.
Uh the the Democrats shut down the FEC largely to be able to get away with more voter fraud.
They're raising a lot more money than Republicans are.
And when you're raising a lot more money than you usually do, the odds are that there's some shenanigans going on.
But now there's not an FEC to oversee any of this.
But the the unambiguous decision from the Supreme Court today, with even liberal John Paul Stevens joining in, will mean that anti-voter fraud efforts this fall will be easier.
So the state of Indiana can go ahead and have voter ID, photo ID for voter registration, uh and uh and actu for actual voting uh as well, without violating anybody's constitutional rights.
Uh this is a huge, huge, huge move forward, and it will undercut the Democrats' effort to get away with fraud in this election uh by having an inactive F.E.C. Here is what uh John Paul Stevens said in his opinion.
The law is amply justified by the valid interest in protecting the integrity and reliability of the electoral process.
Uh he this is an opinion that was joined by uh the Chief Justice John Roberts and Anthony Kennedy, the so-called moderate swing vote.
Also, Justices Alito Scalia and Clarence Thomas agreed with the outcome.
They, however, filed their own opinions.
Justices Stephen Breyer, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and David Suter dissented.
They are the three in the minority.
Uh more than twenty states require some form of ID at the polls.
Courts have upheld voter ID laws in Arizona, Georgia, and Michigan, but they struck down Missouri's.
Uh today's decision comes a week before Indiana's presidential primary.
So big news in the Supreme Court today, common sense ruling, and it's so commonsensical that uh even John Paul Stevens, one of the most liberal members of the court, joined the majority here.
Have you seen the circulation numbers for major newspapers?
The Dallas Morning News is down 10.6%, 363,313 daily daily circulation.
Uh Los Angeles Times is down 5.1%.
LA Times used to have over a million readers.
They're down to 773, 884.
They all remain in denial about why.
Uh And they, I don't know if you watched any of the White House Correspondents Center on Saturday night, but they remain as arrogant as as ever.
It's it's it's fascinating to watch these guys, and their newspapers just continually lose circulation and ad revenue and pages and fire or lay off employees or offer them contractual buyouts.
There's trouble in the print phase of the drive-by media, and they won't for even the slightest moment take time to analyze exactly why.
They are alienate, alienating their readers, alienating their audience.
As I keep saying, the news business is the one business where it is standard operating procedure that the customer is an idiot, is wrong, and doesn't know the first thing about what the business is doing.
So if you have a complaint about your local newspaper, your local TV or radio station, their reaction is you're not sophisticated enough to understand.
Sort of like Obama and the way his elitist buddies look at the clingers in bitter America.
They cling to God, they cling to church when they're unhappy, government's ignoring them and so forth.
Basically a bunch of unsophisticated rubes, is how the drive-by's in large number look at their own audiences.
And the audience is saying I don't care to read you anymore.
I don't need you.
Your old hat.
They're going away in droves and the drive-by is or sitting there in j in in in in total denial and blaming the customers for not being smart enough to understand the brilliance of the work they are putting out day by day in their newspapers.
Quick timeout.
We'll be back.
Reverend Wright Audio coming up.
Stay with us.
Rush Limbo America's real anchor man.
Total package here, Doctor of Democracy.
Truth Detector all combined is one harmless, lovable little fuzzball at 800-282-2882.
Let me deal with this Denver situation as we be done with this and uh and move on.
For those of you not quite up to speed on it, I know the the drive-by's did not make a big deal about this over the weekend for obvious reasons.
Ken Salazar, Democrat senator from uh Colorado, who is uh uncommitted as a superdelegate in the uh Democrat presidential primary race, sent a letter, another letter from another senator to my uh syndication partners at Clear Channel Communications demanding that I be reprimanded for my comments,
which have been mistakenly portrayed as sending Operation Chaos operatives to Denver to start riots.
That is not what Operation Chaos is.
I have no intention of inciting riots anywhere.
It's not Republicans who riot, it's Democrats who riot.
There is a group in Denver called Recreate68.
They have a website.
We've linked to them at our website, Rushlimbo.com, recreate68.org.
For those of you who are too young to know, 1968 was when the Democrat Party had their convention in Chicago, and they burned down part of the town for four days before the police were allowed to uh respond to it.
Jerry Rubin, Tom Hayden, Abby Hoffman, this bunch, they were an anti-war crowd, just as the uh recreate 68 bunch is today.
They are actively promising unrest.
Al Sharpton is doing the same thing.
He's threatening demonstrations if Obama is denied the nomination by the superdelegates.
This is something that I have known.
A historical context is 1968, and so I simply say if they want to self-destruct, and it's sort of like go ahead, make my day.
You guys want to protest and start fires and so forth in Denver, fire away.
That's who you are.
Show the country who you are.
Somehow this has been interpreted by the Denver Drive-by media as I.org,
uh, which is run by an associate of some sort of Ward Churchill's.
They're headquartered in some bunker outside Boulder.
In addition and to Al Sharpton, suggesting there would be demonstrations if Obama's denied the nomination.
Going back to the Atlantic Monthly's blog by Mark Ambinder, February 19th of this year, there's a new talking point this week from Team Obama about the unpalatable prospects of a brokered convention.
2008 will be just like 1968, but worse.
And these words that I'm going to read too, you're spoken to by Obama ally Doug Wilder, who ran for governor of Virginia, and for whom the Wilder effect is named, the Wilder effect is white voters lying to pollsters, saying, Yeah, I'll vote for the black guy, because they don't want the polsters to think they're racists.
Then we get to the polling booth and the privacy of the voting booth, they don't vote for the black guy, and so all these pre-election polls showing all this massive support for black candidates turns out to be not so massive.
That's known as the Wilder effect.
There's the Bradley effect, as it happened to Tom Bradley running for governor in LA.
I mean, he was a California.
He was ahead of George Duke Majin.
In the in the final pre-election poll for Governor of California, and Duke Major ended up winning by a sizable margin, shocking and surprising everybody.
So the pollsters started looking at uh the the Bradley effect and the Wilder effect, and there's the reverse Wilder effect, a double the double reverse Wilder effect, all these analysis.
So here's Doug Wilder.
I think it would be a mistake because you pointed that to take away the nomination.
I think it'd be a mistake because you pointed out the first convention you went to was 68.
You know what a mess that was?
If the majority of the American people who are participating in these processes, either through caucuses or through primaries, have a majority of those votes going for either of the candidates.
And if the superdelegates intervene and get in the way of it and say, oh no, we're going to determine what's best.
There will be chaos at the convention.
It does nothing to help the Democrats.
And if you think 1968 was bad, you watch.
In 2008, it'll be worse.
So here's an Obama ally, Doug Wilder, back in February, saying if Obama's denied this, if he wins it and is denied it by the superdelegates, it's going to be worse than 1968.
So my question for Senator Salazar is this.
Have you sent letters to the National Action Network, Senator and Al Sharpton, who over the weekend promised and stirred up unrest, promised riots in New York City, promised to close down New York City.
Have you, Senator Salazar, sent him a letter demanding that somebody reprimand him?
Have you sent a letter to Doug Wilder?
Suggesting his comments are inappropriate, and that the Obama campaign needs to reprimand Doug Wilder for intimating that Denver 08 could be worse than Chicago 68.
And Senator Salazar, have you sent a letter to the clowns that run Recreate68.org?
And have you told them that somebody the city or the cops or the Democrat Party, somebody needs to disavow and reprimand the people at Recreate68.
This is another failed and plainly transparent attempt, once again, ladies and gentlemen, to uh do political harm to my reputation.
Of course, the the funny thing is that the Democrats have thrown everything they've got at me.
Nothing has stuck.
It won't stick, and there's there are countless reasons why, most of which I have explained, and I'll do so again.
The media did not make me.
I am not the success on radio that I am, because the media told people that I was the best out there and thus created my audience.
And the media did not have anything to do with my sustaining this program's position at number one by providing a lot of buzz.
Oh man, you gotta watch Limboy, you gotta listen to Limbo, it's the hottest thing in the.
There's been none of that.
The Democrat Party had nothing to do with the success of my Program other than they exist as a huge target every day.
A justifiable target every day.
But Senator Salazar, Senator Reed, none of the others have had a dimes effect on my success.
Who has you?
Those of you in my audience, you are the ones who have made this show what it is.
Of course, along with me.
And therefore, if these other elements, such as the Democrat Party, Senator Salazar, the drive-by media, don't someday come to understand the familial relationship, the bond that all of us, me and you, as the audience of this program have for one another, they will never understand how it is that they will never be able to break that bond.
Only I can.
I could screw up on my own and maybe cause a problem, but they can't do it.
And the the philosophy works for anybody in any avenue of life.
If you let somebody else make you, you let somebody else get you where you are, they can destroy you too.
That is not happened here.
The Democrats and Senator Salazar still haven't learned it, and they never will.
All right, now you tell me.
You tell me if you think that this is the Reverend Jeremiah Wright trying to help Barack Obama.
He said today that he will try to change national policy by coming after quote unquote Senator Obama if he's elected president.
Reverend Wright also insisted Obama didn't denounce him and didn't distance himself from Wright's controversial remarks, but he did what politicians do.
Uh Jeremiah Wright again implied that Obama still agrees with him by saying he had to distance himself because he's a politician from what the media was saying I had said, which was portrayed as anti-American.
I just I just said to Barack last year, if you get elected November 5th, I'm coming after you because you'll be representing a government whose policies grind under people.
Is this helpful to Barack Obama?
This once again, he has just destroyed the entire reason for Obama's success, and that is he's a messiah.
He's a new kind of politician.
He's a politician we haven't seen before.
He's a politician which had never ever trod the land of glory that is the United States of America, Barack Obama, brand new, nobody ever ever had been like him.
And here comes Reverend Wright.
Eh, just your average runner mill politician.
He had he had to say what he's meaning, there's nothing new, nothing unique, nothing distinct about Barack Obama.
He's just a politician.
And then the Reverend Wright says he's gonna go after him.
He's gonna keep on him to change America the way Reverend Wright wants.
Quick phone call before we go to the Wright Soundbite San Francisco.
This is Sherry.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Hello.
Hello, Russ.
Thank you for taking my call.
Anytime.
I came home Sunday with my San Francisco Chronicle, and I normally don't read the front page first, but I laid it down, and here I see your name and your picture on the front page of the San Francisco Chronicle.
Wow.
And was that not, was that not a very, very good picture?
That was a picture uh that showed me of supreme confidence, total relaxation, uh uh at one with and in love with myself.
I totally agree.
However, I've never heard you called the great Satan or the political prince of darkness.
Well, it's a badge of honor.
You gotta understand the San Francisco uh population would look at me that way.
This this was a story on Operation Chaos.
It was by Carla Marinucci.
Uh, and I uh I spoke to her via email on Wednesday, and I gave I took her from the first day of Operation Chaos all the way up to the present uh because she was she was stunned that the media wasn't writing about it, and she thinks that it's a big factor, and she was stunned the media wasn't writing.
I had no idea it was gonna be a front page story.
Uh so it comes out and uh and with the the headline is great, the picture is great, so it's it's a very, very good story, I have to say.
And the great saying, you know, I told her, I sent an email, I said, you know, Carla, I actually like your story.
I love the critics of mine that you found for this piece.
The transgender crowd and all these others that you went out to, I love these critics that you found.
So, yeah, I was a little surprised at the tr transgest uh gender Uh quote that she's got in the paper, but I agree it was a very good article.
Eight columns you made.
Yeah, it's a long, long story.
Uh as you say on the front page, below the fold.
Well, I'm glad you saw it.
We're gonna we're gonna link to this at uh at Rush Limbaugh.com uh so that uh so that people can read it because it is it is a good piece.
And then as I say, Carla was she was curious that uh nobody's talking about this when it's a big deal.
She's the the drive-by's are ignoring this.
And uh she sent me a note yesterday morning after it ran, and she said, by the way, the comments that we are getting here, uh and the degree and the the volume of comments is over the top, uh so which is which is typical, as this always happens with me, uh this kind of reaction.
Well, I'm glad you saw it, Sherry, and I'm glad you liked it.
Thank you.
You bet.
Thanks very much for the uh for the call.
Let's see.
I'm sort of intrigued here.
Let's one more call before we go to the uh Jeremiah Wright summit.
No, uh line uh line three.
That guy on line one, I've dealt with that since nineteen eighty-eight.
Basically, we've got some guy on the phone.
Where did you serve?
What do you have what right do you have to talk about war in a row?
You didn't go kill commies when you had a chance.
I mean, that's I don't know, I don't even want to waste my John from Libertyville, in fact, let's go to John of Libertyville, Illinois.
Let me just deal with this rather than talk to him off here.
John, you there.
Hello, John, welcome to the program.
Hi, thanks for taking my call.
Yes, John.
Um I read an editorial in the uh uh Chicago GM I thought was pretty illuminating that pointed out that Reverend Wright had given up a student deferment and chosen to join the Marines to go serve in Vietnam and then later became a Navy corpsman and served at Bethesda Naval Hospital where he treated then president.
He was part of the medical team that treated Lyndon Johnson and received commendation letters from the White House.
Now, I know that Dick Cheney used five deferments to avoid service in Vietnam and Bill Clinton had a student deferment, and you yourself had a medical deferment.
And I'm just wondering if Reverend Game if Reverend Wright's comments are fair game, wouldn't it be more honest to assess the man based on the trajectory of his whole life experience rather than just a couple of statements?
I've never heard you mention anything about his honorable service to our country.
I've mentioned it before.
We've played tapes of Obama talking about him having served in the Marines.
Uh Lee Harvey Oswald was in the Marines too.
So uh I don't I don't think that uh in the sharpshooter uh division.
I I I don't I don't think that alone um has anything to do with it.
We examine everybody in the current context as to what they're saying about the country.
These are not snippets.
In fact, the more of these sermons you listen to, the worse it gets.
These are not just a little couple of comments taken out of context with uh with Reverend Wright.
Uh it's it's pretty but this is one angry, livid, enraged individual.
Uh and uh Obama's got a serious problem with him now.
You may not you may not want to admit it, and the Democrats and the superdelegates may not want to admit it publicly.
But um, you know, they they've they've got they've got a serious problem here.
This guy is undermining the Obama candidacy.
Jason of Fort Lauderdale, you're next to the EIB network.
Hello, sir.
Hey Rush, how are you doing?
Just fine, sir.
Um I'm a progressive like I said to your to your to the guy on the phones, but uh listen, I uh want to congratulate you on uh what I thought was a very fair-minded comment of yours last week about Tennessee Clinton.
You said uh how she keeps calling on her to quit out quit the race, but you said why should she quit?
She keeps resigning.
And uh I mean she keeps she keeps winning.
And I just wanted to congratulate you on what I thought was a very fair-minded comment from you.
Thank you, sir, very much.
Well, you know, Hillary is one of the uh uh beneficiaries here of Operation Chaos.
And she is.
I mean, uh uh I uh without Operation Chaos, none of this would be Jeremia Wright would not be making his public appearances without Operation Chaos.
Uh Hillary would not have won Pennsylvania without Operation Chaos.
Uh and it is uh this was you know one of the objectives of Operation Chaos was to make sure this campaign went on and on and on.
But I I appreciate your detecting my fair-mindedness when it came to Mrs. Clinton.
And I've why should she quit?
Just because a bunch of people are telling her she should get out of she has no chance.
You go back wasn't that long, it was after I think it was right before Ohio and Texas, right before those two primaries, and the stories then were, oh my gosh, who's gonna tell Bill to tell Hillary that it's over?
Who's gonna go out there and tell her we don't have the guts, but somebody's got a the drive-by's were filled with this, some Democrats.
And now look, now you got to a point here uh where with uh Jeremiah Wright being out there and Obama having not won a primary since February 22nd, with Obama losing to Mrs. Clinton seven of the ten largest states in the Democrat primary.
And Howard Dean now in a frizzled, frazzled tizzy, not knowing how to deal with this.
Last week the Supers were going to have to decide it.
Today he's telling the candidates one of them is going to have to quit in June.
Neither of them will.
One of these two candidates is going to be chosen by the superdelegates, not by the primary process, not by voters.
And I have to tell you, and I'm going to stay on tune here.
The superdelegates and a lot of other people are getting nervous as they can be over Obama.
Uh with Jeremiah Wright, he went on Fox yesterday.
Chris Matt uh Chris Wallace was very polite and so forth.
Uh, but he asked questions Obama's not used to getting.
Obama did not deal with them very well.
He was full of contradictions.
Things he said yesterday about tax policy directly contradict things he said just last week and at the Pennsylvania debate in Philadelphia.
Uh he's he's all over the place.
He needs to establish.
He needs to come up with one explanation for this Jeremiah Wright business and stick with it.
He needs to come up with one tax policy and stick with it.
But he's all over the board.
People are starting to realize that Obama was never what he was.
He was never this Messiah.
He was never this this savior type that was going to come and bring to us a new kind of politics that would unify the country.
It was all a hoax.
It was all a myth.
And a bloom is off the rose.
What is becoming paramountly obvious is that Barack Obama has been shaped and formed by two institutions.
One, the insane Jeremiah Wright, and number two, liberal academia.
It is in liberal academia.
It is in the academy where you will find these views that the clingers are bitter and they cling to guns and religion.
You'll find the arrogant, elite condescension towards average people in the classroom in the universities.
That's Obama's experience.
He's simply repeating what he's been told by people he considers to be his club.
And so he's genuinely bewildered when people don't accept it and respond to it.
He thinks the country and the world, a majority of it, is a replica of what his classroom situation was like, what his uh his experience was in the academy.
And it's not.
That that's not the real world.
He's not in touch with any real world.
And it is becoming paramountly obvious.
And folks, there's another dirty little secret.
We've mentioned this.
Guy named Tucker, Bill Tucker.
American Spectator today, a brilliant piece on the crumbling of the New Deal.
The FDR New Deal's about over.
The Democrats are slowly losing the ability to keep all their disparate coalitions together.
And he looks at both these campaigns.
He says the Obama campaign constituency is two.
Blacks and guilty, elite, rich white liberals.
The Hillary constituency is women, uneducated people, and uh one other group, but neither of the two can lay claim to the group of people that the New Deal would not have been possible without, and that is these blue-collar workers, the people that make the country work, the average American, if you will.
The Democrats have grown so elitist they can't relate to them, and they do not relate to them any longer.
This really is a fascinating piece by Bill Tucker, because he he he uh uh goes back and and uh re well it it he actually dovetails a little bit with Amity Schlay's book uh on the forgotten man, Which is about the truth of the New Deal.
The New Deal had roots when in academia.
The New Deal as a policy had its roots with elite whites, professors and so forth, who had traveled to the Soviet Union and came back and said this is how to do it.
And of course, the the uh it's it all these constituency groups are now sort of falling by the wayside.
Uh and Tucker's theory is that if they lose this election, the whole New Deal coalition may be gone forever from the Democrat Party.
Now, this doesn't take the Republicans off the hook because we're not doing the right thing here to capitalize on all this, uh, which is so sad and disgusting and disappointing to me.
But we will deal with it.
We will deal with it.
We always do.
But uh it's it's interesting to watch this.
And don't think that all of these superdelegates and some of the others don't they're worried.
They are really worried that Obama cannot reach average Americans coming off a candidacy where he was their savior.
He was their savior, he was their messiah.
He was gonna get rid of all the hate.
He was gonna get rid of all the discrimination, he was gonna get rid of all the meanness.
He was gonna get rid of all the unfairness.
He was gonna get rid of all the inequality.
He was gonna unite people who today hate each other's guts.
It was gonna be cool by ya, it was gonna be utopia.
It was gonna be every great beautiful thing you've seen in a movie of the same premise.
And now the very people for whom all that was intended can't stand the guy.
Make no mistake about it, folks.
Bill Tucker is right.
American Spectator Todd org, the the New Deal coalition of the Democrat Party is falling apart.
What's amazing about this is that this is happening during this mythological candidacy of Obama, where everybody's gonna be unified into one big love bug.
Uh the only bad thing is the Republican coalition's falling apart too, because the liberal Republicans in our party are doing their best to redefine the Republican Party back to Rockefeller blue blood country club types.
So, you know, we're not we're not uh home free on the we we we we could be we could be destroying these guys in the Democrat Party.
In this presidential race, we we could be destroying them.
And we still can if the if the right message is uh is is part of this.
They are l they're literally eating themselves alive here, and it's uh due in large part to Operation Chaos.
Scott in Denver, you're next on the EIB network, sir.
Hello.
Thanks for taking my call rush.
Yes, sir.
I uh I was watching the news blurb and uh where they advertise our news and at the bottom it said rush uh calls for riots in Denver news, you know, whenever.
And I had a feeling that uh I've been listening to you for twenty some odd years, I guess, and I had a feeling that that was way out of context.
Wait a second.
Wait a way who now I know that there was who who did it actually say Rushlin Ball's inciting?
I think it said called for riots or called the colour.
Called for right.
Yeah.
Well, this is a television station out there.
That's correct.
Yeah, I I know that okay, I I know that a variation of that was going around.
Roslin Bow called while there's Recreate 68 actually doing it, while Al Sharpton's out there actually promising it if Obama doesn't get it, and while Doug Wilder of Obama's campaign saying what happens in Denver could be worse than Chicago 68 if they take this nomination nomination away from Obama.
All these people talking about the hell it could descend on Denver.
I know it.
All I said was bring it on.
Uh let's Democrats act as Democrats.
Let's the liberals show the country what they're made of, and I'm the one blamed.
I've never been in a protest march.
I've never led one, never organized one, wouldn't.
And yet somehow I get tired and federal.
