Broadcast excellence, hosted by me, Rush Limboy, your guiding light.
America's real anchor man, the doctor of democracy, the truth detector.
All combined as one harmless, lovable little fuzzball.
As we are celebrating our 20th anniversary all week, gearing up to the big day tomorrow.

The recession is on hold.
Democrats are dumbfounded and dismayed and disappointed.
The economy grew last quarter at an adjusted 1.9%.
And of course, we have here a headline in the New York Times.
GDP grows at tepid 1.9% despite stimulus.
So we got 2% economic growth for all intents and purposes.
There is no recession.
The growth last quarter was 0.9%, so the trend is upward.
And it's tepid, 1.9%, despite the stimulus.
Anybody could have told you the stimulus wasn't going to have that kind of an impact on the economy.
It was a bribe for votes on the part of both parties.
And from the Associated Press.
Retailers are already talking about price increases of up to 15% this year on holiday goods, from staples like tree ornaments and toys to luxury gifts like European handbags and clothing.
The main cause soaring energy prices.
While most consumers are just starting to think about back to scruble shopping.
Retailers are already preparing for the critical holiday season.
And you are going to have a bad, bad Christmas, folks.
It's just it's just going to be bad out there.
It's going to be horrible.
In bad shape.
Now the Obama tour has not helped in Florida, Ohio, or Pennsylvania, according to a Quinnipiac University swing state poll.
With likely voters concerned more about energy than the war in Iraq.
Barack Obama's recent tour did not help.
Senator McCain has gained on the Democrat front runner in Florida, Ohio, and Pennsylvania.
According to simultaneous Quinnipiac University Swing State polls yesterday.
Okay, that's good news, right?
McCain's up there.
Obama got no bump.
Obama's actually starting to lose some ground in the polls, right?
Try this.
Republican Senator John McCain engaged in increasingly sharp attacks on Barack Obama, pledged that if elected president, he would work closely with Nancy Pelosi.
He praised her as an effective leader and an inspiration to millions of Americans.
Senator McCain said, Yes, I do.
I respect Speaker Pelosi.
Hey, she's one of the great American success stories.
He said this during an interview with the San Francisco Chronicle or some chronicle prior to a yet San Francisco Chronicle prior to a fundraiser at the Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco.
We talk about Senator Clinton and her inspiration in millions of Americans.
Speaker Pelosi has been an inspiration as well in a role that is in many ways more powerful than the President McCain said.
Then Senator McCain had high praise for the 2000 Democrat presidential candidate Al Gore and his advocacy on the issue of climate change.
What can we say?
He's going up in the polls.
Actually, not Obama's going down.
It's a referendum on Obama.
Senator McCain, he just said yesterday, inflate your tires and get tune-ups, and we won't need a drill for oil.
Senator McCain.
You're running for President Nancy Pelosi wants to castrate you if you become president.
She's not going to work with you what's this is just unless you bend to her wishes.
Passing on such a great, great opportunity.
I mean, it's just out there begging to be taken.
We could wipe the country with Democrats in this election.
We could.
Somebody has to go out there and act like, ooh, it's really cool.
Are there really great inspirational people?
Right, she's inspiring millions of people.
Her book is at number 900 on Amazon.
By popular demand, ladies and gentlemen, countless requests to replay the call from yesterday from Jennifer in Colorado Springs.
Anyway, back to the phones to uh Colorado Springs.
Jennifer, you're next on the EIB network.
Great to have you here.
Well, Rush, you might change your mind about that.
Um I'm kind of angry.
All those accolades that you're receiving are literally making me sick.
And in fact, my doctor, believe it or not, actually maybe tongue in cheek, but wrote me a prescription for lowering my blood pressure.
And that is is that I listen to your program as infrequently as possible.
Because in reality, you are the one who believes that you are the Messiah, not uh not Obama, and what's more, you're very sexist.
You're very sexist.
You think that you think that the Democrats are sexist and racist.
You are absolutely the epitome of sexism.
Do you want to know why I think that or not not really, because you're wrong.
I don't I don't I don't like to hear people tell me why they believe something when they're dead wrong.
I don't even know if you're if you're really suffering high blood pressure, why are you even listening?
Well, maybe I'm a mastica and I can't help myself.
I don't know.
I know, I don't think that's what it is.
I think you're constantly enraged and angry and you need reasons to stay that way.
And I'll tell you why I kill the bill.
Because every day it seems that you find a way by innuendo or any other means to put women down.
It's not by innuendo.
It's not by innuendo.
I do it directly.
I put down liberals.
If they happen to be women, I put 'em down, and there's no innuendo about it.
Can I give you an example of your direct comment?
I'd love to hear it.
Do you recall do you recall your comment?
I think it was about three months ago.
You were talking about Hillary when she was uh running against Obama.
You said that women are trying to move into a man's world.
If you had said that about Obama or a black person, you'd be off the air right now.
You'd absolutely be off the air for a while.
Well, I wait a s wait a second.
Why would I be off the air if I'd accused Obama into moving into a man's world?
Well, no, into listen, if it were the same thing if you accused Obama of moving into a white man's world.
Oh the air.
Well, but that that would never even occur to me.
There are black there are black politicians all over the country as there are female politicians.
But the presidency up till now has been a man's world.
Okay, and you're not doing anything to change.
What's the big deal?
Hillary puts her pants on one leg at a time like all the other guys do.
Uh-huh.
Well, what's I mean, why why are you bothered by this?
See, like all the other guys do.
You see, I this is something I've been wanting to ask you for a long time.
Why is it that you always call Hillary Clinton Mrs. Clinton and you never give her the respect of calling her Senator Clinton?
Are you trying to demean it?
I do call her Senator Clinton sometimes.
I have I listen to you practically every day, which is why I have high blood pressure.
I have never heard you.
You know, you really, you need to go take a test.
This, you're not, you're, there's something not right here about you, Jennifer.
Well, what's right what's not right about you is I think you're insecure.
No, no, no, no, no.
Jennifer, I'm trying Jennifer, please, I'm trying to help you.
I'm trying to help you women love me, Jennifer.
You had better get used to this.
And this is your way of leveling the playing field.
I'm not trying to I don't believe you know, I don't believe a playing field can be leveled, Jennifer.
See, I am based in reality.
But Jennifer, you're you're my my my my concern for you is that you may die listening to this program high blood pressure, and you don't have to you can turn it off.
You may be committing a slow form of suicide here on purpose.
There's some that's not right.
Mm-hmm.
I know it.
I know it.
So, you know, I know I don't always listen to my doctor either, so um, you know, I don't listen to you.
You're a woman.
You don't listen to men, period.
Uh-huh.
Well, men don't listen to women, so that's there's equality right there.
Listen to everything that you've said.
Uh-huh.
And you've had sexist re uh uh sexist reaction to it, too.
I enjoy, you know, this is my first opportunity to talk to you.
I'm really happy I got through.
I really am.
Well, I'm glad you did too.
But I'm worried.
If I could say, could I say one more thing?
I'm in the Colorado Springs area, but I listen to Cah Radio in Denver, and you are a topic of conversation almost daily, and women are calling in and talking about your sexism and the phenomenon of your ditto head women calling in and treating you as if they love you, following your sexist remarks.
It doesn't make sense.
You know, the I'll tell you if you want the the real sexism in this country was on display in the Democrat primaries, and it was aimed at Mrs. Clinton by Democrats.
The real racism in this country was on display, the Democrat primaries aimed from the Clintons to Obama.
I helped Hillary Clinton.
Operation Chaos.
I kept her in the race.
You, if you listen to this program as often as you say, you would know that I did everything I could to help her and did.
Operation Chaos was so important, it's now the subject of academic study.
Jennifer, I appreciate the phone call.
I'm glad you got through too, but I am worried.
This is the first you're the first caller ever who has admitted.
I mean, you're masochist.
You've g this is this is it's uh it's unhealthy.
I I I I think you need to lighten up a little bit.
You what you think is sexism, is simply me poking fun at liberals, which of course that has been taboo uh for a long time.
And there you have it from yesterday, Jennifer, Colorado Springs, the first caller in my memory to admit the program is killing her, and yet she can't stop the suicidal behavior.
One final story here before we go to our uh uh obscene prophet timeout.
At least one of many large lake-like features on the Saturn moon called Titan, studied by the International Cassini spacecraft, contains liquid hydrocarbons, making it the only body in the solar system besides Earth, known to have liquid on its surface, NASA said on Wednesday.
Scientists positively identified the presence of ethane, according to a statement from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, which is managing the Cassini mission, exploring Saturn, its rings, and its moons.
Liquid ethane is a component of crude oil.
We have the building blocks on the moon titan, Saturn Moon Titan, the building blocks of crude oil.
The Democrats in the House, the Democrats in the Senate had better before their August recess, put a bill into play and get it passed and set up to the White House for signature, that there will be no drilling for oil ever in a history, remaining history of the universe and time on Titan.
Hi, Russ.
It's uh your friend Clarence Thomas.
Virginia and I congratulate you on your great, great career, and thank you for all you're doing and for giving us just such great information and entertainment and laughs and everything else.
You've been a great friend and a great patriot.
We wish you many, many more years, and we hopefully we'll see you soon and spend a lot more time together.
Uh congratulations, my friend.
Bye.
Wow, Justice Clarence Thomas.
You know, it's the these he is he's become a very close friend, and he's one of these people that I wish everybody could know him the way he is, rather than the way he's constantly portrayed.
He's one of the happiest, the most jovial, most intellectually engaged people.
I have never seen him since the Anita Hill sub.
I've never seen him in a bad mood.
I have I have never seen him less than uh less less than jovial.
He's uh just and his wife Jenny, they're just they're just two of the nicest people.
It's an honor to to be able to uh count them uh among among my friends.
Ladies and gentlemen, Cookie Gleason has found an inconsistency.
Audio sound bite number six.

She sent me a note.

And of course, I rose to the challenge.
From ABC News, a blog.
Jan Crawford Greenberg reporting McCain's new strategy.
This I saw this.
My head came close to exploding.
We have just, we just had the story from uh the San Francisco Chronicle about how McCain admires Pelosi is very inspired by her, as are millions of Americans ditto Mrs. Clinton.
Part of the calculus now is how his VP choice will further sharpen McCain's message.
There is significant support among McCain top advisors that he make a transformative pick who would change the Republican Party, someone who would appeal to moderate Republicans and Democrats.
This pick would be somebody who, like McCain, has taken the unpopular stands, made the hard calls, and stood firm on principle.
A person who fills that bill, these advisors say, is Joe Lieberman.
So significant support among top McCain advisors that he make a transformative pick.
You know something the Republicans don't want to win this election.
They don't, I don't care.
McCain may not, he does want to, but these people around him that are given in this advice, they must not want to win this election.
He he was at the top of the ticket.
He's transformative.
He's enough.
We don't need two guys on our ticket trying to appeal to moderate Republicans and Democrats.
McCain can handle that himself.
Daniel Henninger in the Wall Street Journal today.
The headline of his column is McCain Stupid.
On Sunday, he said on national television to solve social security.
Everything's on the table, which of course means raising payroll taxes.
On July 7th in Denver, he said Senator Obama will raise your taxes.
I won't.
This is not a flip-flop, writes Henniger.
This is a sex change operation.
What I'm asking is, does John McCain have any mental focus?
Does he have the intellectual discipline to avoid being outslicked by Barack Obama if he isn't abandoned by his own voters first?
Is John McCain stupid is the headline?
And he concludes there is a reason the American people, the past 100 years elevated only two sitting senators to the White House, JFK and Warren Harding.
It's because they believe most senators, adept at compulsive compromise, have no political compass and will sell them out.
Now voters have to do what they prefer not to do.
Yeah, Senator McCain has honor in country.
Another month of illogical impolitic remarks, and Senator McCain will erase even that.
Absolute coherent message for voters.
He'll be one on one with Barack Obama in the fall, and he will lose.
So here we have it, folks.
Republicans close to McCain.
We need a transformative figure.
Hey, look at it.
If you like the way the government's going now, and you like how big and bloated it's gotten, and you want the Republican Party to become that, you got your choice here.
Hey, Rush, it's America's anchor.
Uh hang on a second.
Well, anyway, it's the anchor of NBC Nightly News in New York.
Uh, an interested listener.
Let's put it that way.
It's Brian Williams congratulating you on a great run.
I know you're just getting warmed up.
Go get him.
He was going to call himself America's Anchorman, and he stopped himself because he realized he's not.
He was going to call himself America's Anchorman.
Brian's another one of these guys people don't know about he is hilarious.
In private.
He is as funny as he can be.
It's a shame that in the solemn world of the presentation of the news in the drive-by media, he does not get to uh demonstrate that.
Back to the archives as we celebrate our twentieth anniversary tomorrow.
We're doing a little little more each day as we build up to tomorrow to the archives we go.
It's this Clinton country, and uh sir, we all do what needs to be done for the next two and a half weeks, and we elect Mark Roosevelt as our governor, and you re-elect.
And you re-elect old Kennedy in the United States Senate.
We're gonna start on the 96 campaign to elect Bill Clinton as a re-elect him on the next one.
And oh sir, we all do what needs to be done for the next two and a half weeks, and we elect Mark Roosevelt as our governor, and you re-elect.
And you re-elect old Kennedy in the United States Senate.
We're going to start on the 96 campaign to elect Bill Clinton as a re-elect him on the night.
This is the country in the United States.
Senator Kennedy, what is it, nineteen ninety-four or nineteen ninety-five, I think?
For the next two and a half weeks, and we elect Mark Roosevelt as our governor, and you re-elect and no re-elect him on the next minute.
And you re-elect old Kennedy in the United States Senate.
We're gonna start on the 96 campaign to elect Bill Clinton as a re-elect him on the next minute.
And off sure we all do what needs to be done for the next two and a half weeks, and we elect Mark Roosevelt as our governor, and you re-elect and re-elect him on the next minute.
And you re-elect Kennedy in the United States Senate.
We're gonna start on the 96th campaign.
Senator Candidate, 1994, 1995, 14 or 13 years ago.
Uh we first we first played that uh that sound bite on the television show, and then brought it over to uh to radio.
Okay, to the phones to uh Moran, Pennsylvania.
Mark, thank you for holding your next on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hello.
Uh, I think we got a real dilemma here.
We got Barack Obama acting like a candy ass any time somebody says they don't agree with uh whatever he stands for.
You know, he says uh, you know, f put more air in your tires and get tune-ups.
I mean, come on, people.
We we got enough energy in this country to last for centuries.
In Pennsylvania, we used to be uh the one of the coal kings.
Coal everywhere.
And now you can't burn the coal because you've got the environmentalist.
But on the other hand, I don't see much coming from McCain.
And if he's gonna have to lower himself to uh to work with Nancy Pelosi, then I guess he gets the candidate.
You know what he was doing?
You know what he said this out in San Francisco, and that's her district.
That's where she's from, but it still made my head one explode and made me want to puke.
Well when he gets this is not how he's gonna fur he's not gonna win the presidency by going to San Francisco to get Democrats to vote for him.
It just isn't gonna happen.
And I'll tell you something.
This this this this business of his advisors saying need to find a transformative figure, moderate Republican or Democrat as his vice president.
I have suggested on several previous occasions that the blue blood country club Rockefeller Republicans would just as soon get rid of the conservative base of the Republican Party because it embarrasses them and a whole host of other reasons.
And this is you put these two things together.
You're right.
You're absolutely right, Mark.
Here we've got we've got a Democrat presidential candidate who is a child.
He may be the Messiah, but he's a child.
He's a baby, and he has not learned to think.
He only repeats what he has been taught.
I still I still can't get over this business telling people to inflate their tires properly and get tune-ups in order so we will not have to drill.
Democrat Party is invested in no drilling, they're invested in defeat in Iraq in a sane political environment.
They'd be toast.
They wouldn't even be viable.
Here is, pronounce this, Bava.
Baba in Brooklyn.
Hi, Baba, nice to have you on the program.
Uh first of all, I would like to congratulate you on your twenty years.
Thank you.
Uh I remember ten years ago when I first listened to you.
Before that, I I read a book that today I consider really, really stupid.
It was about you, and it was called Rush Nymbor is a big fat idiot.
But I I wasn't really involved in politics.
I was busy with kids and home and you know, and things like that.
But then I started working with my husband, and every day I listened to the radio and I I turned it on onto your program and I heard you talking about Israel, and I'm in Israel.
I was born in Israel.
And I'm like I I went, Oh my gosh, I wish all Jews would talk about Israel the way you do.
And I started listening to you on that day, and I realized you actually helped me realize that I am a conservative.
I wasn't uh registered in any party before that, uh, but on the day that Hillary Clinton announced that she's actually running for Senate from the state of New York, I became a registered Republican.
And so uh and and you know, since then I have been listening to you and uh more and more.
Um I am a conservative more than than a Republican.
I'm really very conservative in every possible way.
I love I love hearing you say that.
I love hearing you say I'm a conservative, because you're saying it with pride and you're saying it with conviction.
Absolutely, absolutely.
And I have to tell you, I I work in the healthcare industry.
Uh a small part of just I I collect money from insurance companies.
And every day I'm convinced more and more that socialized medicine is gonna be a disaster.
An absolute disaster.
Yeah, and that's you know, especially if you look at the economic climate that we're in, uh the growth is happening, but if you look at the credit crisis, the uh the the mortgage problems and the housing industry, imagine piling socialized medicine on top of that.
I I just I shudder to think about it.
Well, tell you what's gonna happen.
Uh the sympathy play that the Democrat Party will mount upon the death of Senator Kennedy will lead to the push for one of his signature issues, which is socialized or nationalized health care.
And they'll probably call it Kennedy care or some such thing.
And it's gonna be it they they're gonna really be tugging at people's heartstrings emotionally.
It's gonna be tough for elected members of Congress to resist this.
How could you deny the one thing Senator Kennedy devoted his life to?
Have you no heart?
And what about the children?
Be prepared, Baba, because it's going to be an onslaught.
And it really scares me.
It really scares me.
I I see what's happening today, and he just uh uh people are not gonna get health care, they're just not gonna get it.
Exactly what's happening in England is going to happen here, and you're not gonna have doctors, you're not gonna have people going into lo into medical schools.
It's already starting to happen.
Doctors are already opting out, and they're setting up fee-for-service business.
If you give them a retainer, like a lawyer, then you can go see them off insurance, off Medicare, off this kind of there the la doctors here are already opting out of this.
I also I I I heard on the Pret Hume show two nights ago, that doctors are signing a patient that they're not going to go to a lawyer if something wrong is going to happen, they're going to go to an arbitrator, and they're going they to be they're going to be bound, but the arbitrator says, and the di I think there's a limit to what they the doctors can be can pay like forty million dollars or something in these arbitrating agreements.
Yeah, that's well, that highlights another problem is is the medical malpractice insurance.
Courtesy of the tort bar led by estimable people such as John Edwards.
Yeah.
When he's not hiding out in the basements of hotel bathrooms, avoiding reporters in a national inquirer.
That's right.
Baba, thank you so much.
Great to have you appreciate it.
Thank you very much.
Thank you so much.
I appreciate that.
Here is Scott in uh Jacksonville, Florida.
Hi, Scott, nice to have you on the program.
Jack Bauer and Alan Brothers Megadiddos.
Thank you.
Sir.
Happy anniversary.
I've been listening to you since 92.
I've told my uh wife's grandfather, who's 93 years old, World War II bombardier to listen to you, he's listening to you right now, my uh father-in-law, so many people I've told about you.
The one thing I had told Bo that thinking of these last twenty years, Rush, what you've brought to us.
I remember you on PBS with Norm Ornstein when you talked about the house banking scandal, uh your impressions you've done over the years, Judge Hirschner, uh, Senator Hollings, uh, James Carville.
I remember Kennedys in Jeopardy.
I mean, what a great I mean, I think it was about a week of Kennedys in Jeopardy you did.
I remember the day when people called in from across the country saying how you changed their lives, like they lost jobs, but because of you, they found new jobs, uh doing something they love to do.
I want to thank you for Manheim Steamroller, and for twenty-four, and especially for Allen Brothers, and uh I just want to thank you for being there these past twenty years.
Well, you've got a great recollection of things.
I had forgotten about the Kennedys in Jeopardy game, and I don't know that we found it when we were going through any of the archives, but that was hilarious.
It was it was a uh a week-long series based on the T V game show Jeopardy, but it was called the Kennedys in Jeopardy, and it was it was hilarious.
Uh if we're unable to find it uh by tomorrow's program, and uh we've had a couple people uh this has been an arduous project going back and trying to find all these things.
And we've been uh working on it for quite a long time.
We'll try to find that.
Also the Judge Hirchner, if you don't remember Judge Hirchner, this was during the Clarence Thomas Anita Hill hearings, ladies and gentlemen.
And they had all these advocates for both Clarence Thomas and Anita Hill come up and testify, and of course the advocates for Anita Hill, uh not only advocated for her, but had horrible things to say about Clarence Thomas.
And they had this woman up from San Francisco, Judge Susan Hirchner was she was uh v like a low low level judge, a little up from night court, uh, but a staunch, great lib.
And her husband was somehow there, but liberal activists.
And I you've you've heard you've heard the description of somebody with a with a tight butt and just this woman is that times ten.
And she's sitting there, and she was just one of these most properly spoken uh uh in case we don't have that, I will do my impersonation of Judge Susan Hirchner when we return from this time out.
Had a more fun than a human being should be allowed to have El Rushbo talent on loan from God.
All right, take yourself back in time to the Clarence Thomas Anita Hill hearings in that Senate uh hearing room, and imagine if you will, a middle-aged woman trying to look like she's Mary Travers at Peter Paul and Mary.
Uh whitish blonde hair parted in the middle, some bangs over the forehead, sitting as erect as if somebody stuck a pole down her mouth.
And nothing moves when she speaks.
And of course, these senators are asking her questions.
And when it came time to describe the virtues of Anita Hill, Judge Susan Herschner said something along these lines.
Senator!
Senator!
I...
I have to say that Anita.
It's so pure.
She enter Anita Hill has never had a bowel movement.
She has never foiled a toilet in her how clean and pure center.
Anita Hill in.
Now she didn't actually say that.
But she was close.
I mean, she was.
She smacked her lips at times, uh, yeah, and then that would cookie right now is trying to track down actual audio of um Susan Hirchner.
Um and we may have it, and then you can you can compare my impressing impression of Judge Hirchner with uh with how she really speaks.
Now get this from the Raleigh News and Observer.
Apparently they're gonna have a back to school retail sale.
Estate's gonna eliminate sales tax.
Uh at one minute past midnight tonight, cash register bells will ring as the state's seventh annual sales tax weekend starts, and budget sensitive shoppers will be ready.
The National Retail Federation reports that parents intend to spend an average of six hundred dollars on screw supplies up thirty dollars from last year.
And of course, many intend to shop carefully.
Who wrote this?
Vicky Lee Parker.
The Chickification of the News.
By the way, before I continue with that, it reminds me of a story.
A small increase in water temperature among sensitive fish, like the South American pajeri, can result in a population that is ninety-eight percent male.
That, my friends, is a good thing.
That would global warming there might be an added benefit because this would avoid the chickification of the seas.
Chickification of the newsroom.
Uh gas prices have retreated a bit in the past weeks, writes uh the news observer, but they remain high with costs soaring for many household items, skipping the six point seven five percent state sales tax on computers, scroll supplies, clothing, and other products is an attractive issue, even in a gloomy economy.
The retail federation estimates national spending for kindergarten through twelfth grades this year will reach twenty point one billion dollars.
And they she goes goes on to to talk about how it's not gonna be saving that much money, but it's worth it.
And then in a companion story.
Right up Obama, right, I mean right right up, right up Obama's alley here.
How to shop smart.
This weekend, when you go out screw shopping for your kid in North Carolina.
A triangle family with uh screw aged children, three screw aged children spends two hundred dollars per kid will save forty dollars fifty cents on taxes with such small savings, it's important that it all goes to your pocket, so try to avoid some things that eat into your savings, and here comes the nanny chickification preaching to the readers of this newspaper.
Don't use lots of gas driving all over looking for deals.
Map out the stores you want to visit and try to limit your travel to one area.
If you charge your purchases on the credit card, be sure to pay off the balance within your allotted grace period, paying interest on tax-free purchases defeats the purpose.
Check your receipts.
Make sure the store didn't charge you tax on a tax-free item, and stay within your budget.
If you plan to spend two hundred dollars per child, stick to that.
Think ahead.
If you do have extra cash, now may be a good time to get an early start on your Christmas shopping.

She's, I'm sure she's a wonderful woman, a nice woman, but it's very sexist.
Very sexist to mention that the writer of that story was a nanny mothering.
I just sent one of the staff members out, ladies and gentlemen, to uh properly inflate my car's tires and to get it tuned up.
