Hiya, folks, we are back and greetings and welcome.
Rush Limbaugh, the EIB network and the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies, meeting and surpassing all audience expectations on a daily basis.
Happy to have you with us.
Telephone number 800-282-2882.
If you want to be on the program, the email address is Ilrushbo at EIBNet.com.
We had a caller with an interesting question just before the conclusion of the previous hour.
And this in fact grab grab soundbite number one because soundbite number one today is what spawned her question.
As you know, uh ladies and gentlemen, I have uh been warning you that the Republican Party, especially as currently constituted, is doing its best to de-emphasize the uh importance and the influence of the traditional conservative base, which is not just the so-called evangelical Christian right or the pro-lifers or whatever,
but you have all kinds of people in the Republican base that are conservatives from values conservatives, social conservatives, uh uh even fiscal economic conservatives, but conservatism has been the base of the Republican Party, and because the conservative base does include pro-lifers, and because many of them are from the South, there are many in the Northeastern corridors of power in the Republican Party who are embarrassed to be in the party with those people.
And it largely it it it really does hinge on abortion.
Uh and it and it hinges on men, Republican men of some means being henpecked by their by their wives.
Well, we gotta get rid of this.
Uh pro-lifers and then all this.
So it's just not worth the trouble, you know, that you get at home.
And and so the and there's been a uh uh general throughout the Republican Party, there's been an element of that party that uh has always been somewhat shy of having conservatives, conservatism as a dominant force.
And so they've got their nominee here.
They've got Senator McCain who's reaching across the aisle to Democrats, and it's interesting when McCain is pro-life.
Although he doesn't make a big deal about it, but but he is uh pro-life.
But they're able to overlook it because McCain's uh not out uh uh cavorting with them.
He's not out actively seeking their support.
Um he's ripping, in fact, uh religious institutions in the past, uh Bob Jones and so forth from the 2000 campaign.
So uh they're able to overlook it.
But i it's you know, we've we've got a candidate now reaching across the aisle for Democrats and independents, and the country club blue blood uh Rockefeller Republican types would be very, very happy if conservatives were de-emphasized, and it was and I've been saying this, and a lot of people think, even though it's next to impossible to prove me wrong about these things, especially after twenty years.
We still have people who doubt me on these kinds of things, even though I say don't doubt me.
So we found a soundbite from last Wednesday, a former Republican conservative congressman from Oklahoma, uh Mickey Edwards, was appearing on a local New York radio show, PBS Network or something similar.
And he's now at the Harvard, he's been at Harvard and Scots there for eleven years.
He's done a total one eighty.
He's a big lib now, married a lib woman, that's all it took.
And it's usually usually something like that.
It never ceases to amaze me.
It's disheartening, but it happens.
Anyway, this the interviewer happened to be Brian Larry or the uh the dull, dry, and very boring uh Brian Lair who was talking to Mickey Edwards.
He said, What what what about Rush Limbaugh here?
I mean, peep people like Limbaugh are out saying if McCain's elected, it's gonna destroy the Republican Party as it's known today.
Uh what do you think will happen to the Republican Party and the idea of conservatism if McCain is elected?
Well, I think if McCain is is elected, it it won't destroy the Republican Party, it won't help Rush Limbaugh any.
And that's probably a good thing.
You know, the fact of the matter is that the conservative base, the Republican base, is not the religious right.
It's not the neocons.
They are less than 30 percent of the Republicans who who go vote.
They're just the ones who are the most active, take the biggest part in primaries.
I think that if McCain wins, uh you know, it will be it'll probably be a good thing, but I don't for for conservatives.
I don't know if it'd be a good thing for the country.
You know, I haven't decided that yet.
This guy, I don't think he knows what he's talking about.
If McCain wins, it'd be a good thing for conservatives and bad for the country.
This is a former Republican from Oklahoma.
This guy was one of the three uh original trustees of the Heritage Foundation.
He used to be president of the American conservative union.
Somehow he ends up at Harvard.
Uh and he's been in sconce there for the last 11 years.
So anyway, he says 30%.
Less than 30%.
And the caller said, look, the black population totals 10%.
Don't know what the voting population is.
The uh the gay population, what is it, 1%, 2%?
Uh that's 12%.
And we're not even factoring out the adult population, the voting population there.
So her question was, how can it be that the Republicans are willing to just throw away 30% of their base, and the Democrats will do everything they can, they will grovel, do whatever they can to make sure their base hangs in with them.
One of the multiple answers to this, but one of the first answers is money.
The far left, and don't, I'll tell you something, the uh the politically active gay community on the left is worth a lot of money.
These people send the Democrats more money than you can possibly imagine.
A lot of it from uh from Hollywood and the arts entertainment, they're not the money, you know, key number one.
You might be saying, well, don't the pro-lifers donate a lot of money to the Republicans?
Yeah.
Yeah, they do, but it still embarrasses them.
It still embarrasses a lot of the country club Rockefeller types.
The Democrats, what are they embarrassed about?
They're not embarrassed about anything.
The Democrats have never set any standards for themselves.
As far as they're concerned, everybody's a victim, uh, even on their side.
So I mean, uh, yeah, these victims are just fighting to be heard, fighting for their rights, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
The conservative rights, uh, conservative right is viewed as trying to deny people rights, blah, blah, blah, you see.
But in addition to the money aspect of this, and don't and don't forget that the left wing base is not even talked about by Mickey Edwards, there is the anti-war kook fringe, and it is huge.
From moveon.org to think progress to my base book, whatever these things, these things, well, maybe not my space or face, whatever it is.
But uh there are so many of these 527 groups out there that are just raising money left and right, and the Democrats are scared to death if these people take their money and go away or go to a third party or what have you.
And so they will cater to them left and right.
The uh the Republicans do not have that kind of uh attachment, apparently, to the uh to the conservative base and whatever fundraising comes in, but I will I don't know what the fundraising totals are, but I think the Republican Party's down in the House and Senate uh campaign committees, RNC.
I see different things from day to day.
Some days they're ahead of the Democrats at DNC, other days um other days they're not.
But I know that many of you in this audience, it's all anecdotal, but I get enough emails from people who say that I'm not sending any more money.
I just got a solicitation today in the mail, I write it, I send a little note back without any money.
Uh I just I I think that there is a uh uh combination of things.
Democrats don't care about standards, uh who their donors are, they really care about the money, they need it, and they will deal with whatever fallout there is like Obama.
Obama is is is now done a 180 on his FISA thing.
This guy is is a piece of work.
The FISA bill that the House passed last week is essentially the same bill that they voted down in February or March.
They made a couple minor changes to the immunity that telecoms get, but the telecoms will still get their immunity.
Then Obama said, I'm gonna vote for the change.
And it all hell broke loose, and now Obama's saying, no, I'm not gonna vote for the change.
I'm gonna make sure that that pit about the uh immunity for the uh uh telecoms is stripped out of there before I vote for it.
So he does respond.
And when the when the when the far left fringe base responds to Obama, he does a flip-flop and a 180 on this if it's like campaign finance reform.
That was Orwellian.
His flip-flop on campaign finance reform, this was stunning.
This was better than Clinton-esque.
Did you hear what he said?
He had promised, he'd had interviews with the Washington Post editorial board, the U.S. aided all these drive-by newspapers, and he promised them.
He promised them That he would support public financing and campaigns.
See, that's all part of campaign finance reform.
And the reason the drive-by's loved campaign finance reform is it gave them more power.
The more people who are proscribed by law from offering opinions or getting into the advocacy race, the more power the drive-by's had because it didn't apply to them.
There were no restrictions.
So Obama's out there promising them he's going to go for public financing.
And then when Obama realizes that public financing will give him 85 million, but he could maybe raise 240 million, he said, Oh the hell with it.
I I'm I'm I'm not I'm gonna opt out of the campaign public finance system.
Well, the media went bonkers for a while, but they'll get over it.
Uh which is they will they'll they'll duly note that uh this is a bad thing.
I mean, Mark Shields said Obama couldn't pass a uh lie detector.
He's such a good liar.
He couldn't play a bad liar, couldn't pass a lie there.
They really fit to be tied now.
But the way Obama did this was classic.
He said, Essentially, look, look at all my small donors.
This is in effect public financed campaign.
I got so many small donors, I cannot just throw these people away.
I just can't throw them to the wolves.
You see, the the the moral to the story is that campaign finance reform is great when the Republicans are outraising Democrats.
But when campaign finance reform would prevent Democrats from outraising Republicans, then it's no good.
And so Obama just said to hell with public campaigns, finance campaigns, and to hell with campaign finance reform.
If if I got people want to give me the equivalent of 240 million dollars, I'm gonna take it.
Screw McCain.
And of course, McCain said, I'm not consuming he lied to me.
I'm considering he lied to the American people.
Hey, Senator McCann get used to this guy who lies to the American people practically every time he opens his mouth.
This guy, one of the brilliant things about this guy is he gets away with attacking the political system while being the number one practitioner of the political system.
This guy is using politics better than anybody he has, while at the same time he's ripping it to shreds.
And people are falling for this.
So they think he's Messiah, he's reform, he's changed, he's outside the bubble.
This guy is quintessential politics.
And now he's out there saying the Republicans are going to attack his race.
I have the soundbite of that and other things coming up.
We've got to take a break right now.
We'll do that and be back and continue right after this.
Okay, qu uh a quick phone call.
This is interesting.
I had forgotten about this before we get on to the Obama items here.
David in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Nice to have you on the EIB network.
Hello, sir.
Hello.
Uh yeah, I was just wondering uh I I noticed that Mickey Edwards, uh, you're talking about him, and I remembered he was my representative in Oklahoma years ago.
And I just want to remind everybody that he was caught up in the house banking check writing scandal.
And as such, he did not even win the uh Republican primary.
Yeah, I remember this.
He finished third.
That was this when we got Ernest Istuk in the House, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Um that explains a lot, you know, because you people that have not been here for 20 years, you may thanks for that reminder, David.
But uh the House, the House banking scandal, the lid on net was blown on this program.
And I remember being invited on uh on the uh McNeil O'Lara News Hour when Judy Woodruff was host at they had me on there, and I went through this whole routine after I had done it on the radio.
And after it was over, they had a com they had a panel of congressmen to talk about.
One of them was Guy Vanderjack from Michigan.
And they asked Guy Van Jack, what do you what do you think of this?
What Limbaugh just said, and Vanderjack's and he pointed at the camera, he said, That limbaugh, he just hit the nail on the head.
Because this is simple to understand.
People cannot write checks for money they don't have.
But a lot of members of Congress have been doing it for years.
And they were going, and if Mickey, I'd forgotten Mickey Edwards was one of those guys.
So that's uh understandable why Mickey Edwards would have uh a bit of a problem that did take him out.
And then after that, it's on to Harvard.
Uh and uh all the other things associated there.
Here is oh, one more thing about uh global warming before we move on.
The majority of the British people are still not convinced that climate change is caused by humans and many others Believe that scientists are exaggerating the problem, according to an exclusive poll for the the observer.
Now, how about this uh the observer?
This this appears in the UK Guardian.
Uh the results have shocked campaigners who hope that doubts would have been silenced by a report last year by the uh international or intergovernmental panel on climate change, which found a 90% chance that humans were the main cause of climate change and warned that drastic action was needed to cut greenhouse gas emissions.
The findings come just before the release of the government's long-awaited renewable energy strategy, which aims to cut the UK's greenhouse gas emissions by 20% over the next 12 years.
This is the second such poll like this I've seen, where a majority of not just the UK, in this case it's UK, a lot of people throughout the entire European Union are not buying the notion that it's their fault.
And one of the reasons is that they have been suffering the consequences a lot longer than we have.
People in the European Union and the UK have seen tax increases out the wazoo to deal with carbon footprints and global warming.
Their taxes have gone up.
They have seen no improvement in the global warming situation, and in fact, the leaders keep blaming them.
Even after all these tax increases, the proponents of man-made global warming continue to make it worse.
It's getting worse here.
So people in the UK European Union are saying, wait a minute, you've raised our taxes, we're paying out the wazoo for all these things, we've done all the things you've told us to do about changing light bulbs, all this other crazy stuff, and yet you now say it makes no difference, so they're starting to doubt it.
They're way ahead of the curve over there, uh, way ahead of us.
Here is Senator Obama.
This was Friday, Jacksonville, Florida, at a campaign event.
We know what kind of campaign they're going to want.
They're going to try to make you afraid.
They're going to try to make you afraid of me.
They're going to say, you know what, he's young, inexperienced, and he's got a funny name.
Did I mention he's black?
Ah!
He's got a feisty wife.
Were you able to understand that conversation?
You weren't.
Come on, snurdly.
We added some foundest sound effects to make it sound like the Messiah was speaking.
But we thought you could still hear what he was saying.
You didn't understand what he said.
Well, I'll okay, then I'll translate it.
He said, We know what kind of campaign they're going to run.
They're going to try to make you afraid.
They're going to try to make you afraid of me.
They're going to try and say, you know what?
He's young and inexperienced.
He's got a funny name.
Did I mention he's black?
He's got a feisty wife.
This guy, ladies and gentlemen, is diabolical.
Barack Obama will do and say anything.
This is a disgrace.
And people should be furious with this kind of thing.
It is the Democrat Party that brought up race, all of the racism, all of the sexism, all of these things that are supposedly the Republicans are guilty of and that the country is guilty of, were on full display during the Democrat primaries.
Barack Obama is out there virtually ignoring the fact that it was the Clintons and any number of other Democrats who were pointing out he's not black enough.
It was Democrats and Liberals who started the whole refrain, is he authentic?
Meaning, has he been down for the civil rights struggle?
They are the ones.
The Reverend Jackson reference by the Clintons in South Carolina.
Hey, of course they know he's going to win here.
He's black.
You know, Clinton was right.
They played the race card on him.
And of course, the sexism and so forth.
Meanwhile, while all this has been going on, John McCain has done everything he can to distance himself from anything that mentioned Obama's middle name, Obama's race, or what have you.
He's made it plain he doesn't want to go there.
And yet here is The disgraceful Barack Obama coming out doing and saying anything, making it up.
And in fact, what you might even be able to conclude from this is that it is Obama who is playing the race card himself.
And he's trying to evoke sympathy.
Nobody, I don't know anybody who's talking about race when it comes to Obama on our side.
Do you?
They're all everybody on our side scared to death to say anything about Obama.
I don't know who's bringing this.
I don't know anybody's talking about him being a Muslim.
Who's doing that?
But he's out there saying they're gonna call me up.
Who on our side's doing that?
Do you know anybody?
I don't know anybody saying that.
Anybody that matters.
You're guiding light and all that stuff.
You know how it goes.
Rush Limbaugh back at 800-282-2882.
So Obama's out there accusing the Republicans of playing a race card.
He did this in Florida on uh Friday.
They're gonna try to make you afraid of me.
They're gonna say, you know what, he's young, inexperienced, he got a funny name.
Did I mention he'd black?
And he's got a feisty wife.
By the way, the Atlanta urinal constipation today, speaking of the feisty wife.
Actually, from Saturday, this is a looks like it's a blog.
Michelle Obama has been the recipient of rougher treatment than her husband for a reason, says the president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference.
One of the Obamas has ancestors who were slaves and the other doesn't.
And that's the explanation.
That's right.
This I could Charles Steele Jr., president CEO of the decades-old Atlanta-based civil rights group, the Southern Christian Leadership Conference.
Uh Steele was talking to a morning gathering of the Georgia Association of Black elected officials.
He said Obama is of the system.
I mean, he's gonna be in the system.
Why are they attacking Michelle Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama, not really attacking to that degree her husband?
Because she has he has no slave blood in him.
He does not have any slave blood in him, but Michelle Obama does.
The system the system is an issue.
I don't care what you say, you can't expect the system it enslaved you to save you.
Steele is this is just weird.
You know this this is just weird.
The Steele admitted to the crowd that his remarks about the Obamas were intended to be provocative, but afterwards he declined to expand upon them.
The Southern Christian Leadership Conference said his larger point was that even though Obama should win the president, should he win in November, the problems uh facing African Americans will still require an outside voice.
I told this, say this is the bottom line.
Everybody said, Rush, you gotta, you've got to understand here if Obama wins, we have crossed the threshold.
We have reached the promised land, we have reached the mountaintop.
There will no longer be any valid charges of racism.
No way, folks, it's gonna get worse.
Obama's playing a race card now.
I think any criticism of him is racist.
Any mention of his name, and he mentioned of his race, and he mentioned of Michelle, and he mentioned of his name.
It's all racist.
Now we got the Southern Christian leadership honcho saying, hey, hey, nothing changing.
Obama wins, nothing changing here.
We still need an outside voice because not black enough.
He non-authentic.
The Southern Christian Leadership Conference, what's his guy's name again?
Charles Steele Jr. has just said, if you know how to translate this stuff like I do, because I know liberals, he's not black enough.
He is, he's from the system.
He is the magic Negro.
He is the guy.
He is the one that they've all been waiting for.
Guilty white liberals who can say, fine, I can vote for a black guy and get rid of the guilt I feel over slavery that I had nothing to do with.
But not so with the Southern Christian Leadership Conference.
These people don't miss a trick, do they?
They don't miss a beat.
Hey, you white people, you think Obama being elected is gonna Change things, you got another thing.
We still gonna need an outside voice.
You're still gonna hear from us.
Barack doesn't have any slave history, but Michelle does.
And that's why people are supposedly ripping Michelle.
Uh, Mr. Steele, I don't think you understand.
To the extent that people are ripping Michelle Obama, it is only after she inserted herself into all this and started claiming that she was never proud of her country until the last year or so.
And then when she's out making speeches to poor people, she's essentially telling them to stay that way and don't have any higher aspirations.
You have to understand something, Mr. Steele, when anybody, I don't care who it is, I don't care what their ethnicity, what their race, what their sexual gender orientation happens to be, when somebody enters the presidential race and starts getting involved in it from the standpoint of ideas, people are going to react to it.
And if you think that you guys can get away with shutting that down simply because well, you might be with some of the Republican Party, but there are other people are not going to be intimidated by this.
What?
Not able to criticize anybody because their name, not able to criticize anybody because of their skin color.
And yet we are playing the race card.
But all that aside, this last sentence in this story is the P.S. that is distance.
The Southern Christian Leadership Conference said his larger point was that even should Obama win in November, the problems facing African Americans will still require an outside voice.
Obama is not really black.
Obama does not have a slave past.
He has no slavery in his bloodline.
I think this is, well, you might say he's got some Al Sharpton on him.
So Sharpton's on a protest line, you know, while Obama was in the prep school.
uh And naturally some of these guys feel sort of shoved out of the way by Obama.
And so they're making it plain.
Hey, hey, we kind of dig Michelle, she got slave past, she got slavery in her blood, but not this guy.
They're still gonna need us to explain how things are not right racially in this country.
Here's uh Oh, I was gonna play an audio somebody the drive-by's reacting to Obama throwing the race card.
We have a montage here.
This is uh from Friday through Sunday morning.
Who do we have?
We got this the uh we got Jack Cafferty, the old.
He's it.
Well, he's out of his mind, his curmudgeon is a CNN.
We got Gloria Borger, uh, we got Ed Henry, all these people CNN, we got Ann Curry of NBC, we got Howard Feynman from Newsweek, we get Scarborough, we got Mika Zhezinski, we've got John Meakin, we got and Obama.
Oh.
Okay.
They're all responding to Obama.
So Obama's responding to himself here.
Very shrewd.
Very shrewd to put this out there now before they do, because they will.
It's pretty funny.
Why not bring it up with a little bit of a sense of humor at this point?
President Bush does that with humor of Obama addressed race at a fundraiser in Florida using a little humor.
Anything you can laugh at or with, you're not afraid of.
He's really played it quite brilliantly.
Great stuff.
Well, that's one hell of a good politician.
Throwing the race card down and supposedly doing it with humor.
In other words, telling lies about people is just fine with the drive-bies.
They think it is a fabulous strategy and hilariously funny that Obama has called Republicans racists.
Here's Ben in Atlanta.
Ben, I'm glad you waited.
Welcome to the uh EIB network.
Hey, Rush.
Uh, I think what this is all about is that the Republicans have not gotten involved in race, not talked about the only people talking about it are are the uh Obama's camp and the Clintons.
So they played a preemptive race card because they've got to drag the Republicans into this to get them where they want, which is away from the questionable radical associations of flagrant and right and uh heirs, and get them onto the stuff itself because I think they're finding that reasonable Middle class uh American blacks are turned off by all this radical stuff with right and flagrant and they've got to change the topic and get it onto something with that they know is a winner,
and the winner is race.
Um yeah, I I don't disagree with any of that.
This is all part of the repackaging of Obama.
Absolutely and uh and so forth.
But once again, it it it it does distort the whole thing.
All of the racism was I mean, if anybody played the race card on this guy, it was other Democrats.
It was the Clinton, it was it was it was all over the place.
Um it's just it's just I I think it's deplorable what he's doing.
I don't find it funny.
But when you do it this way and play the preemptive race card, you get to maintain your victim status and still get the first blow in and say those those rascally Republicans are you know what they're gonna do to me.
Right, right.
Well, I just want to I just want to do something right here, ladies and Ben, thanks for the call.
I just want to let you know it isn't gonna work on this program.
Just like I hang around with liberal women and not be changed for good.
I'm not intimidated by Barack Obama.
The Reverend Al Sharpton singing Barack the Magic Negro, which is all about the fact that Barack's not authentic enough.
He's not black enough, and lo and behold, the same point has been made by this guy's steel at the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, in which he says should Obama win the presidency in November, the problems facing African Americans will still require an outside voice because Obama doesn't have slave blood in him, but his wife Obama does.
Ain't got no blood.
Ain't got no slave blood.
So the guy who first wrote this uh magic Negro column in the LA Times, uh David uh uh uh Erin Steiner, something like that, has been proven correct.
The Southern Christian leadership conference has now said Obama's not authentic.
No slave blood, ain't got no blood, ain't got no slave blood, Michelle does, requires an outside spokesman.
Point made.
I just want to reiterate here, my friends.
Obama's out there throwing down the race card, and he's also throwing down this bit about his middle name and whether or not he's Muslim and this sort of stuff.
I want to remind you, nobody of any importance in the Republican Party is using his race or the fact nobody's even saying it.
I I don't know who he's talking about.
In fact, he's not talking about anybody.
This is a preemptive strike.
Uh attempt, he's he this what this does is give the drive-by's cover to accuse people of it.
Because the drive-by's are in total uh coordination uh with Obama, and so he's not put it out there.
They're gonna say I'm black, they're gonna make fun of my name, and they're gonna make fun, they're gonna call me a Muslim, and they're gonna say my wife's feisty, whatever.
Uh and so the drive, wow, this is great.
This was funny.
Why get rid of the issue?
This is just Carte Blanc for the drive-by so levely accusations now and a report on Republicans in that context.
But I don't know anybody of any importance who's even talking about these things when it comes to Obama.
The only people I know of that brought up the fact he's black and tried to make a big deal out of it, are Democrats in their primary campaign.
And there are even some Democrats who brought up this Muslim business.
You know, he went to madrasas or madrases, whatever they are, and he went to all these things that they you know, the Clinton campaign and a number of others did their best to subtly and sometimes not so subtly bring this up.
But hell folks, Republicans don't have the guts to go anywhere near any of this stuff.
They don't even have the guts to be all that critical because they're afraid this is what's gonna happen to them.
Which has always been one of the Republicans' biggest problems anyway.
They're gonna get ripped to shreds, so why not do the right thing anyway?
No matter what they do.
The drive-by's the Democrats are gonna impugn them, attack them, so why not say the right stuff?
Just do the right thing.
It doesn't seem to uh doesn't seem to permeate.
Listen now.
This is we got two more sound bites here with Obama, and this is last Thursday evening on his website, uh, declaring or opting out of uh public financing of his presidential campaign.
I have an important announcement, and I wanted all of you, the people who built this movement from the bottom up to hear it first.
We've made the decision not to participate in the public financing system for the general election.
This means we'll be foregoing more than 80 million dollars in public funds during the final months of this election.
Oh, he's gonna go without 80 more.
He cares so much.
He's such a reformer, he's gonna go without 80 million.
Because he's got 240.
Private.
But this this is aggravated to drive by us because he promised them earlier that he was going to do this.
But he's opted out, and he they'll they'll show their outrage for a while, as they have been, but then they'll get over it.
Here's the the second part of the announcement.
It's not an easy decision, especially because I support a robust system of public financing of elections.
But public financing of presidential elections, as it exists today, is broken.
And we face opponents who become masters at gaming this broken system.
Oh, well.
John McCain's campaign and the Republican National Committee are fueled by contributions from Washington lobbyists and special interest packs.
And we've already seen that he's not going to stop the smears and attacks from his allies running so-called 527 groups who will spend millions and millions of dollars in unlimited donations.
I'm I all I can do is laugh.
I I don't think it serves any purpose to get here uh outraged here and all it just I refuse to be put on defensive by the guy.
I'm just not gonna do it.
This is such I can I I don't think they have to have a meeting to come up with this.
I I think this is just in their genes.
I I think Democrats, these liberals, this is just genetic.
I mean, for crying out 527s.
We should be so fortunate for this to be true.
The fact is that the 527s dwarf the Democrat liberal 527s dwarf Republican 527s.
Uh move on.org and this coming the money, I mean it's it's it really, it really isn't close.
Uh and McCain.
McCain smears.
McCain smears and attacks.
Who is McCain smearing and attacking but conservatives?
He doesn't ever smear and attack Democrats, folks.
This is outrageous.
Once again, folks, Obama opting out of the public finance system simply means, and especially he talks about the campaign finance reform system being broken.
Who broke it?
Members of Congress Supreme Court, who fixed it.
All it means is that when the Democrats are raising more money than Republicans, they don't want campaign finance reforms, so he'll he'll opt out of it.
And this is part and parcel of what he's doing.
Lecturing us not to say things we are not saying.
Obama and his pump, his boys, they want to run against people who they are not running against.
They want us to think it's another time and place in this country.
They're trying to shut us up, saying things we're not even saying.
