Time Text
And welcome back, ladies and gentlemen.
Fun frolic and frivolity for all.
As well as the serious discussion of issues.
A package combination not found anywhere else.
In major media, Rush Limbaugh, Commander in Chief.
U.S. Operation Chaos from behind the golden EIB microphone.
Nice to have you here.
Telephone number 800 282-2882, the email address.com.
Howard Kurtz, Washington Post today.
What have I always told you?
The man who tried to soar above politics has been brought back to earth by the same media organizations that helped fuel his spectacular rise.
Bingo, as I have always said, if you let the media make you, the media can break you.
After more than a year of mostly glowing coverage, Obama is having to defend his relationship with the Reverend Jeremiah Wright, his temerity in not sporting a flag pin, even his arugula-loving bad bowling let me eat my waffle persona that fostered what Newsweek has branded the Bubba Gap.
Now they are circling the wagons now, but they did hit him pretty hard.
The media makes you, the media can break you.
People for the ethical treatment of animals seeking the suspension of eight bells jockey, the horse that was euthanized after breaking both ankles in the gallop out on the uh Kentucky Derby on Saturday afternoon.
Gibrital Saez was riding eight bells when she broke both front ankles galloping out a quarter of a mile past the wire, euthanized on the track.
PETA spokeswoman Kathy Gilermo said, What we really want to know, did the jockey feel anything along the way?
If he didn't, then we can probably blame the fact that they're allowed to whip the horses mercilessly.
The trainer of eight bells, Jerry or Larry Jones said it to Philly was clearly happy when she crossed the finish line.
I don't know how in the heck they can even come close to saying that, he told the AP.
She had her ears up, she's clearly galloping out.
Suez, a 20-year-old Panama native, was riding in his first derby.
The letter to the Kentucky Horse Racing Authority from PETA also sought a ban on whipping limits on races and the age of racehorses and a move to softer artificial surfaces for all courses.
So this is this is liberalism on parade.
This is how it happens.
And of course, these people at Churchill Downs and the people associated with the horse aid bells are caught totally off ground.
What is this?
Because do you know how these owners treat these horses?
They treat them as pets, they treat them as friends.
It is a uh, you know, this the sport of kings, as they say, the first horse race of a 300 years ago somewhere in Great Britain.
They still go the wrong way around the track, but still.
Uh they they started the horse racing.
The idea that who is PETA?
This is this is back reminds me back in the old days when the Nags, the National Organization for Women, Nags, the uh National Association of Gal sent out a press release saying women demand X, women who are these people.
Their maximum membership was 250,000 people.
And the drive-bys gave them the credibility of speaking for every woman in the country.
Now PETA gets the uh same imprimonter.
They are allowed to speak for all animal lovers.
Who are they?
There's a bunch of people with a f with a for the fax machine.
And uh and a logo.
So we'll see how this uh this shakes out.
I want to go back, ladies and gentlemen, to the top of the audio sound bites on this, the eve of the primaries in Indiana, and in North Carolina tomorrow.
Uh, and the the uh audio sound bites that have happened over the weekend about Operation Chaos.
Because the drive-by media is doing everything it can to say there is no operation chaos, it's ineffective, it doesn't matter, and yet others in the drive-by media can't stop talking about it, cannot stop analyzing it, cannot stop trying to figure it out.
It's hilarious.
We start with Mrs. Clinton on Stephanopoulos' show yesterday.
Rush Mboss asking Republicans to come out and vote for you in order to divide the police.
He's always had a crush on me.
Mrs. Clinton is saying that I have always had a crush on her.
You know, it's probably just the other way around.
I've told you about the time she followed me in an elevator at a New York hotel and uh and hit the stop button and asked to be treated like a woman because it hadn't happened so it's a long time.
Uh and but I also did this.
Said this back on January the 10th on this very program.
The acceptance speech.
After she had won the primary.
I thought she looked better than I had ever seen her.
When she came out late at night, gave the acceptance speech.
I thought she got the hair down.
You know, every day during the Clinton years is a different hat, different hair band, different hairstyle.
She got the hair thing down.
She looked glowing.
She looked genuinely happy, Mr. Snurk.
She did.
At that acceptance speech, she looked genuinely.
She even looked sexy.
I thought she looked sexy.
And at that point, Cookie Gleason, Cookie Preus up in New York, uh, just panicked and thought I was losing it.
And she still panicked over the fact that Hillary says that I have a crush on her, and Cookie hasn't heard me deny it today.
Uh the fact that look it if Hillary thinks I got a crush on her, so does Bill.
The Clinton household thinks that I've got a crush on her, and that would explain why Clinton hit on my date.
About a year ago in New York at the Kobe Club.
I told the story to Martha McCallum a half hour ago.
She didn't think I was telling the truth.
She thought I was telling a joke.
But it's the truth.
I'm sitting there minding my own business, and Clinton came to the table three different times.
The second time he brought the mayor of Los Angeles to distract me.
And after I'm talking to Mayor of Los Angeles for about a minute, minute and a half, I glanced to my left, and Clinton's face is inches away from my date.
He came back a third time with Ron Burkle.
Is it the Kobe Club in New York?
I mean, it was written about.
There were witnesses in there.
People put their cell phones were taking pictures of this.
Martha didn't believe me.
So clearly Clinton thinks that I've got a crush on his wife, and that's why he hit on my date at the Kobe Club.
Well, this was discussed all over the drive-by media, first on Fox and Friends this morning.
Gretchen Carlson was discussing this with Mrs. Clinton.
Do you also have an advisor for niceness?
Because that's been one of the biggest raps against you.
And things seem to have changed for you recently.
Now that line yesterday about Rush Limbaugh, who's helping you?
Nobody.
I'm just having a good time.
I I think this is so much fun campaigning across our country and especially these last couple of weeks at North Carolina and Indiana.
People have been wonderful.
The spring is here.
Everything is blooming.
I mean, how could you not have a good time?
It's been wonderful.
She's denying me.
She's denying.
She says nobody's helping her.
Who's helping?
She knows full well that Operation Chaos is helping her, and that's in fact this this business about my having a crush on her.
That's her way of thanking me.
You know, that was that was that was sort of cute.
Say I have a crush on her.
Then this morning on Morning Joe Scarborough's show on PMS NBC, he and uh the uh guest host or co-host, Mika Brzezinski discussed this.
I'm a little disappointed.
Senator Hillary Clinton in Greenville, North Carolina.
I had no idea that Rush Limbaugh had a crush on you, too.
I'm flabbergasted.
Oh boy.
Don't you think uh I don't you don't you think we've uh caused a little cognitive dissonance out there?
I I think so.
That's one way to put it.
Do you hear how happy she sounds?
She sounds schoolgirl happy.
Mrs. Clinton sounds schoolgirl happy.
She's laughing and cackling it all up out there.
You remember my friends.
She's singing so much fun out there now, and I have a crush on her.
She's having more fun than she's had in a long time.
She's winning these primaries or coming close.
Obama hadn't won diddly squats since February 22nd.
But you remember before Operation Chaos?
Crying about how hard the campaign was.
Remember she got this planted question up in New Hampshire?
How do you do it?
How do you do your hair everything?
And she started crying.
You know, here came the tear.
It's hard.
It's very hard, she said.
And we At Operation Chaos came to her rescue.
Her emotional rescue.
Rolling Stones.
We've got the audio.
I mean, if we wanted to go back to the archives, we've got the audio of Mrs. Clinton talking about how hard it was with the tear, and now she's talking about how much fun it is.
Uh so it's clear, ladies and gentlemen, that there has been a sizable emotional and attitudinal shift in her campaign brought about by Operation Chaos.
I would go so far as to say, ladies and gentlemen, I and all of us at Operation Chaos are doing the job for her that her husband can't do or won't do.
Yeah, I know I'm just trying to find the sound, but I want you to use.
Yeah, okay, number uh we're gonna do number 32 and number three, Mike.
We're gonna do a back and forth.
We're gonna illustrate here.
This is Mrs. Clinton, ladies and gentlemen, January 7th, 2008, in the morning in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
Uh, and this just is a little bit here of what she said on that date.
It's not easy.
It's not easy.
Um and I couldn't do it if I just didn't, you know, passionately believe it was the right thing to do.
You know, I have so many opportunities from this country.
I just don't want to see us fall backwards.
No.
So started crying, clearly not having a good time.
Uh, she just lost Iowa, which wasn't supposed to happen.
And then this morning on the Fox News Channel.
Do you also have an advisor for niceness?
Because that's been one of the biggest raps against you.
And things seem to have changed for you recently.
Now that line yesterday about Rush Limbaugh.
Who's helping you?
Nobody.
I'm just having a good time.
I I think this is so much fun campaigning across our country, and especially these last couple of weeks at North Carolina and Indiana.
People have been wonderful.
The spring is here.
Everything is blooming.
I mean, how could you not have a good time?
It's been wonderful.
Ladies and gentlemen, the contrast is stark and undeniable.
Everything's blooming.
She's got schoolgirl giddiness.
After announcing yesterday she thinks I have a crush on her.
You do you heard the contrast, and something has clearly changed out there.
Do you remember this story?
Back during the Ohio primary, prior to the Ohio primary, the Attorney General Vare and others were threatening Operation Chaos voters with potential felonies, and me.
Radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh been telling his audience for days now he could be indicted for encouraging Ohio Republicans to take a Democrat ballot in the March 4th primary in Operation Chaos.
Could that actually happen?
This is Greg Polowitz at the media blog at National Review Online.
It says, We have no intention.
Leo Jennings, a spokesman for the Democrat Attorney General, Mark Dan, D A N N. Leo Jennings said, We have no intention of prosecuting Rush Limbaugh because lying through your teeth and being stupid isn't a crime.
And it's a good thing that being stupid isn't a crime.
One skill, Attorney General Mark Dan is honed in his first year in office is damage control.
There have been four notable examples of gaffes since April.
The latest coming over the Thanksgiving holiday.
The press release with tips for holiday shoppers issued by Dan included one unexpected tip, the telephone number for a telephone sex hotline.
And it has further been learned.
Ohio's attorney general, whose spokesman called me stupid, admitted an extramarital affair with an employee last Friday, soon after three of his aides were fired or forced out after an investigation found evidence of sexual harassment and other misconduct.
Leader of both parties were critical of Attorney General Mark Dan, one of several Democrats swept into office in 2006 after a scandal over state investment sullied Republicans.
He apologized to his wife and supporters, but promised not to step down.
I'm embarrassed.
I've taken responsibility for what I've done.
He had Lived with two of the aides at an apartment during much of his first year in office.
Some of the alleged harassment by one of his aides occurred there.
I didn't create an atmosphere in my public and personal life that's consistent with the important mission of the Office of Attorney General, Dan said.
I am heartbroken by my failure to recognize the problems being created and by my failure to stop them.
My ass, he's heartbroken.
Heartbroken he got caught.
It was a group thing.
Yeah, it was a group thing.
Uh so anyway, this is the gentleman whose spokesman said you can't be prosecuted for being stupid.
Well, that's a good thing.
Because the Attorney General.
Okay.
Back to the phones we go.
This is Virginia in Greenwood, Indiana.
Nice to have you on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hi, Rush.
How are you?
Great, thank you.
Well, Megaditos from Greenwood, Indiana.
My dad and I are both longtime listeners, and I'm so excited to talk to you.
Appreciate that.
And my six-year-old, I've already indoctrinated him.
He loves your show every day.
He comes home from kindergarten and listens to you.
Appreciate that.
Yeah, we don't call it indoctrination.
You call it enlightenment, education.
That's true.
That's absolutely true.
And I have a seven-month-old little girl, and she will be listening with me also in a few years.
Tremendous.
Great.
And I just wanted you to know that I have my marching orders for tomorrow, and we'll be at the polls nice and early, and no one will deter us.
Uh I appreciate that.
And your courage is infectious.
Thank you.
I hope your courage is felt by other operatives of Operation Chaos listening to your phone call even as we speak.
Yes, absolutely.
So why are you going to why are you going to go early?
Um well, it just gets my day going, and um I'll be able to bring my son with me, and um I'll show him, you know, the election process, and um we'll just get out there and get it generally.
I would actually suggest that you go in the middle of the day.
Uh Republicans I can hear you.
I did hear your your thoughts on that.
Yeah, there's something to consider.
Of course, it's up to you, and that you're your uh your admitted courage probably can overcome any of the obstacles the Democrats throw at you at uh at the polls.
Uh I was also thinking of of putting a little t-shirt on my some seven month olds, a little Operation Chaos t-shirt.
Well, by all means.
Yes.
Excellent.
Well, I it's it's great.
It's great to hear from volunteers who happily and eagerly are willing to follow orders.
Thank you, Virginia.
Jim in uh Roseburg, Oregon.
Hello, sir.
Nice to have you with us.
Rush, it's great to talk to you.
Um you know, I'm frankly getting really disgusted with the Republican Party uh for their inability, either their inability or I'm not sure what it is to take advantage of the easiest issue out there right now.
And that is, excuse me, gas prices uh and use that to talk about domestic drilling.
This is just i it's ridiculous, and frankly, I'm a little disgusted with President Bush for not talking about it more.
He did.
Well, I know he did today, and I and I am happy to hear last week too at a press conference.
He talked big, he really ripped into Congress, and last week uh Texas Senator K. Bailey Hutcheson did the same thing on this program, and she's written an op-ed in the um uh uh investors' business daily about the same thing.
I think what you're really saying is that right now when you talk at this in this climate, when you talk about Republican Party, you're talking about the presidential campaign, right?
Yes.
And what you really would like to hear is McCain talking about this.
That's that's that's the vessel for Republican votes coming up in November.
Absolutely, but we know he is not going to do it because he's constantly sucking up to the left vis-a-vis, you know, the ecology, you know, environment and whatnot.
Uh so somebody's gotta do it.
I'd love to hear you do it more, but they'll just, you know.
Uh you know, I'm blue in the face.
I'm I'm I'm blue in the face from doing it.
Uh uh sometimes you can you can overdo things to the point that people run out of emotion.
Right.
And don't want to hear it anymore.
Right.
Yeah, and you turn it off.
So it just takes it takes an instinctive uh understanding of timing.
But believe me, I hear your frustration.
I'm watching with great glee the debates here between Obama and Hillary on the gasoline tax holiday, the federal gasoline tax holiday.
Uh And you know, Hillary's saying, I don't care if there aren't the economists.
I don't care if there aren't the economists.
This is a good thing that Obama's out there talking about what a boondoggle that it would be, and these are the people Obama thinks prices are going to bring it too high.
We'll be right back.
No go away.
Now we don't just take it to the limit.
We cross the line.
Regularly here on the EIB network, Claudette in Linden, New Jersey.
Welcome to the EIB Network, Claudette High.
Hi, Rush.
How are you today?
I'm fine.
Thank you very much.
Okay.
I just wanted to ask you, what is your rating now?
What is my rating?
Now.
You mean like PG X R N C. What do you mean by you mean my audience ratings?
Audience ratings.
Uh you know, this is tough to discuss because we're technically not allowed to give intimate details, but I'll just tell you through the roof here, Claudette.
And what was it before?
Operation Chaos.
Uh look, they're number one, then they're number one now that they're up.
It's it's it's it's actually phenomenal.
We've only gotten uh in the January, February, March rating period, which we in the broadcast business called the winter book.
We only have about 25 markets in the top 25, which is 80% of the country in terms of population.
It's it's kick-ass.
Oh, okay.
Is what it is.
And I think now Operation Chaos only started in a month of March.
I think, you know, the next report will get us in July.
And I think that uh we have monthly reports, but those no radio ratings are strange.
They're not they're not like television ratings at all.
But uh don't worry about it out there, uh, Claudette.
We're we're expanding expanding in almost geometric proportions here.
I just wanted to tell you that I think that Operation Chaos is silly, it's misleading, it's backwards, it's an insult to your listeners, and it leads me to question your love of people, your love of country.
And I want you to know when you um say things um to really throw everybody in confusion.
What do you think when you hear words such as truth, honesty, trust?
What comes to your mind?
Me.
Truth honesty, trust equals R U S H. Okay, I'll be able to do that.
That's what comes to mind.
What in the world you Claudette, how long have you listened to this program?
Everything about this program is done for America.
Okay.
I was expecting that answer from you, and thank you very much.
All right.
Bye-bye.
Bye-bye.
What the hell was that, Snurley?
What?
Those are the answers that she was expecting.
Back to the audio soundbite.
So you straighten it out in there.
What are they getting interrogation from a caller?
Insult to the listeners, leads me to question my love of people.
Operation Chaos.
It's all about love of people.
It's all about love of country.
Everything about this program is about that.
You do have to be informed to participate in Operation Chaos.
You can't just be a bump on a log out there.
Operation Chaos continued in uh Indianapolis last night.
The Jefferson Jackson dinner, Hillary spoke first, then Obama.
And in between them, Hallard Dean showed up to rally the troops.
We need you to knock on your neighbor's door.
You can overcome anything that Bill O'Reilly and Rush Limbaugh said if you show up.
I want you to think about this.
I want you to think about this for a minute.
If you're in Texas, Mississippi or Tennessee, and you're a hard working guy and drive a pickup truck, maybe the gun rack in the back, you vote Republican.
Unless you're a member of a union.
And why is that?
Because if you're a member of a union, you still believe in things that those hardworking folks in those states believe, but you have a guy talking to you every month about why it's important to vote for a Democrat.
All right, now the first part of this bite, clear evidence of Operation Chaos.
Despite the fact the New York Times and others are trying to deny that it's impact is measurable.
Howard Dean Tells the assembled Democrats last night in Indianapolis you can overcome anything that O'Reilly and Rush Limbaugh say if you show up.
Then he goes on to insult people in Texas, Mississippi and Tennessee, hardworking guy drive a pickup truck, and he has to throw that gun rack in the back comment in there, which just fulfills proof, illustrates proof of the cliched version uh view that they have of you people.
You're a bunch of hay seed hicks.
But if you have a gun rack in your pickup and you're a Democrat, then you're not a Hayseed hick because you believe in unions.
Now, Doug Wilder used to be the governor of Virginia.
Now he's mayor of Richmond.
Yeah, Richmond, Tennessee uh Richmond, Virginia, who was on Slay the Nation along with Evan Bye, Senator from Indiana.
This was yesterday morning, and Bob Schiefer said, uh Governor uh Wilder, if Hillary should wind up winning out there in Indiana and at least just coming close in North Carolina, shouldn't she hang in there?
Shouldn't she stay in despite what people say that this is tearing down both of them?
Let's get real.
The bloggers, the right wing commentators on the radio.
Who are they supporting?
Not Barack Obama.
They are literally begging people.
And these are Republicans, literally begging people.
Please vote for Hillary Clinton.
They have no intention of supporting Hillary Clinton in November.
Stop taking neither do half the people that voted for McCain in our primaries have any intention of voting for McCain in November.
These independent moderate Democrats in New Hampshire and uh in Iowa and all these other places, you guys chose our nominee.
This just this just amuses the hell out of me, Governor Wilder, because you can't stand the same kind of ploy being used on you that your party has been famous for for decades.
Why are they doing that?
Why is it Barack Obama can reach what some call the elite voter?
But he can't reach the others, that's poppy cock.
There is a concentrated effort to derive those voters away from him and to drive them to Hillary Clinton because many of them think that Hillary will be the weaker.
So I think there's a hidden message here, Bob, and I think the answer comes from those persons who should be saying why they are asking everyone to vote for Hillary Clinton in a Democratic primary.
He admits it.
So you people at New York Times and elsewhere who want to pretend that there's no impact, Doug Wilder, former governor of uh Virginia, he understands what's going on in North Carolina.
He knows full well the impact of uh of Operation Chaos, and he resents it.
And when he sits there and says, bloggers, right wing commentators on the radio, who are they supporting, not Obama?
Operation Chaos is what he's talking about.
Uh then Evan Bai, the uh senator from Indiana, also on the show, Bob Schiefer said, Senator, one of your fellow Hoosers, the former head of the DNC, Joe Andrew, switched from Clinton to Obama last week, urging other Hoosers to do the same.
Do you think Hoosers will listen to him?
Doug was talking about Republicans coming over and that kind of thing, and I I don't want Doug, I agree with you on one thing.
We don't want Rush Limbaugh deciding our primary.
But if you look at the poll state, the average of all the polls, not just one here or there, in the state of Ohio, which was the key state last time.
Hillary now runs about eight or nine points better than Barack.
In Florida, which was the key state in 2000.
She runs about ten or eleven points better.
She's inched ahead of John McCain nationally.
Barack's a little behind.
So all these things suggest that with Democrats, independents, Republicans, she's doing very, very well.
Senator Evan Bye, we don't want Rush Limbaugh deciding our primary.
Operation Chaos.
While the New York Times and others try to play it down, people on the ground in Indiana and North Carolina know full well, as does Ariana Huffington of the Huffing and Puffington Post.
Sunday near Friday night, actually, with uh host Campbell Brown on CNN's election center.
She was asked, uh, Ariana was, do you believe there's some troublemakers out there?
Well, it's not really a matter of opinion or belief.
It's a matter of listening to Rash Limbaugh, who has launched Operation Chaos, and he suspended it for a day while he thought maybe Obama was in real trouble, but he has reinstated it.
And he's urging um his dittoheads to go and vote for Hillary Clinton because he wants to prolong uh this primary.
He wants ideally a win for Hillary Clinton.
And uh that so that is that could have an interesting uh impact on the race.
I don't know too many self-respecting Republicans that are actually going to vote for Hillary Clinton.
I mean, I think some of that has got to be a little bit of dog and pony just to make a point.
Well, you know, Rash Limbo has a lot of followers.
They may not be self-respecting.
But nevertheless, they could very well go and do whatever Ashlimbo wants them to do.
They could be challenged.
Indiana has some quirky rules about challenging people who do not vote for the other party in good faith.
So it could be a long time before we know the results.
Ariana Huffington, the Huffing and Puffington Post.
Uh acknowledging Operation Chaos.
Brief timeout, ladies and gentlemen.
We will get back to your phone calls right after this.
We get back.
You know that uh open borders and multiculturalism agenda that's supposed to really play into the Republican Party's strength.
We're supposed to have amnesty programs, our immigration let all these illegals in rush because we got to go get those voters.
That's a Republican Party is the natural place for these.
Remember, we were heard all that a year ago during the debate on the amnesty bill.
Well, a story from the politico.
Hispanics may put Florida in play for Democrats.
Democrats are poised this week to pass a crucial milestone in Florida.
For the first time, the number of Hispanic Democrats in the state is expected to exceed the number of Hispanic Republicans.
The Florida Secretary of State expected to release the month's voter registration figures to the state Democrat and Republican parties.
The last set of figures released in April showed a bare majority of 212 Republicans over Democrats among the states, roughly 1.2 million voters who describe themselves as Hispanic on their official voter registration forms.
The significance of the numerical flip, mostly symbolic, but it's a powerful symbol at a key moment.
Quietly, Democrats are debating whether to amount a full out, expensive challenge to McCain in Florida, or essentially cede Florida's twenty-seven electoral votes to the GOP.
The Florida Democrat Party, still in the midst of a scheduling battle with the Democrat National Committee, points to the numbers to argue the National Party should return to the state.
They absolutely need to be in Florida, said the Democrat chairwoman Karen Thurman, who called the anticipated shift among Hispanic voter registration historic.
We are winning.
Yep.
This is what all of us knew.
All of us knew that the uh massive numbers of Hispanic immigrants are going to end up in the Democrat Party.
And yet the Republicans didn't want to stop these immigrants illegals from coming in in hopes of getting them to vote Republican.
And now the Hispanic vote may put Florida in play for the Democrats against McCain.
I will cease commentary at that point, though I could say one more thing.
Casper Wyoming, this is Gary.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Hello.
Thank you for the call, Rush.
This has been very, very exciting.
I uh don't know if I can go on after the last lady out laughing so much.
But uh I had a question about Obama and his remarks.
Well, you know what that lady was trying to do.
I kind of had an idea.
No, what do you think she was trying to do?
Well, she was just trying to make it look like the uh the rating was going up because of the chaos.
She was trying to say, she was trying to get me to say that the only purpose of this is ratings.
That's exactly right.
As though that somehow disqualifies the uh the objective.
And you know, I you know the this is a business of ratings.
That's that what I don't care what anybody says, even the people at NPR, everybody is in this to be the best they can.
The way you measure that's with ratings.
And it's rather with revenue.
And and and to say that there's some people doing this for altruistic reasons is a crock.
But the the left, of course, thinks that that is somehow disqualifying if you're doing it for I mean, the overall reason for doing the program is ratings.
Yeah, but I mean I didn't move to New York to become number three or number five.
So they think it somehow disqualifies.
It's just the exact opposite.
It is an outgrowth of of uh of of having a large enough audience to pull something like this off.
I mean, you realize nobody else could pull off a nationwide operation chaos.
Nobody else could.
Absolutely.
Anyway, what were you going to say?
Uh basically I just I had a couple of comments.
One was on Obama and his remark about the gas hall day would only say thirty cents a day.
How does he come up at thirty cents a day?
Well, he's figuring that's eighteen point four cents a gallon, and the people use less than two gallons a day driving.
Hmm.
And so that, you know, 18.4 would be 36.8 cents.
He figures if you're using not quite two full gallons, you spend thirty cents.
And then that somehow becomes thirty bucks a year.
As though, okay, we got high prices.
But cutting them a little bit ain't gonna help anybody.
Thirty bucks a year doesn't mean to anybody.
And then the lies start.
All these federal workers will be put out of business.
All these three hundred thousand federal jobs will be lost, and the roads will become full of potholes.
I have news for the federal government.
The roads are full of potholes already.
State and city governments, all their budgets not being interrupted at all.
All the roads and bridges are in disrepair.
The idea that we're in the process of repairing them and so forth is a crock, and it would be impaired with a gas tax.
And then Obama comes along and says, with a piece that resistance, he comes along and says, All the gas companies or the oil companies just raised the price of gas and they had to pump to make up the loss of the gas tax.
Hmm.
Well, I I don't know.
I guess he's not thinking about the fact that the whole reason for the gas holiday is for the people that drive somewhere in the summertime to take a vacation.
So that's gonna be a lot more than two gallons a day.
No, it's it's not that at all.
Obama is a socialist, a liberal socialist.
And the idea of the government giving up anything is an ethmo.
It will not happen.
Look at listen listen to him talk about his tax cuts for whoever he's gonna have tax cuts for.
It's always backed up by how he's going to pay for it.
The government is a net winner in all this.
They will never the government will never allow itself to do with less.
There are no budget cuts ever.
They're uh the budgets never get smaller, they always get bigger, particularly the federal budget.
Uh it's all it's all a smoke screen.
And especially when you have the amount of people that are government workers, they're not going to want to give up their jobs.
Of course not.
So they're hiring.
Oh, that's the government's the biggest hire all of a sudden these days.
My excuse me, I might make one other point.
I I don't know if anybody's ever said anything about it before.
I hadn't heard it, but quite a while back in his uh campaign stumps, he would say, that's not gonna happen in my White House.
What happened with our White House?
How come it all of a sudden it would be his White House?
It's just a variation.
And when Hillary says, when I'm back in the Oval Office, In my White House, who knows?
I think this guy Obama does have a an elitism about him, a sense of entitlement.
Uh, and that it's this is really all about him personally, despite his flowery rhetoric and so forth.
Good catch.
Quick time out.
We'll be back.
Wrap it up after this.
Thank you.
Pucker Tia, the MG's wrap it up here, folks, as we have to clear out.
Much to do this afternoon.
This is the dreadful day that I have to pay a stack of bills.
I hate it.
But it has to be done, and I do not farm this out to anyone else.
And never will.
Remember the orders from headquarters today for Operation Chaos.
Can't electioneer much on Tuesday at election day in Indiana and North Carolina.
The battle plan remains the same.
