Welcome back, Rush Limbaugh here at the Excellence in Broadcasting Network, meeting and surpassing all audience expectations.
Not only every day, but every minute.
The phone number, if you want to be on the program is 800 28282, the email address L Rushbow at EIBNet.com.
Before we return to our analysis of the Democrat convention, and folks, face it.
Just admit something.
It is more fun to listen to me talk about what happened last night than it was to actually watch it.
Because what happened last night was just unbelievable.
It was boring.
It was it was the repackaging of repackaging.
I mean, even poor old Ted Kennedy.
The opening shot in the video tribute to Ted Kennedy was of water.
Water.
We got nobody.
Nobody said McCain all night.
Nobody said the word Bush all night.
Where was the hate?
There was no hate.
And that's not the Democrats.
They should have had Ted Kennedy up there.
Videotape of him trashing Robert Borkle delegates would have been I saw a graphic.
I don't know which network.
I watched two last night, CNN and Fox.
A little graphic at the bottom of the screen.
Four percent of the delegates to the Democrat National Convention are disabled.
So there are a problem with a wheelchair ramps.
I mean, big whoop.
Identity politics?
Bring it on.
Before I get into more on the spot analysis, I must inform you of a weather situation that poses a great threat.
There is a hurricane currently making its way toward the southern peninsula of Haiti called Gustav.
The National Hurricane Center's track forecast turns this into a category five hurricane by Sunday or Monday.
And the many models are fairly close in in uh this hurricane going into the uh Western Gulf, maybe Texas, Mexico, but one model.
One model, the model that I know that the National Hurricane Center relies on the most, called the GFDL, takes this baby right for New Orleans.
Can you say Katrina too?
This hurricane, if that model is correct, this hurricane will bear down Cat Five on New Orleans on day one or day two of the Republican convention in St. Paul.
Can I fill in the blanks here for you?
Drive-by media will point out that the Republicans, the rich Republicans in their private jets with their diamonds and their limousines, are in St. Paul debating the continuation of tax cuts for the rich and the elimination of the death tax, and then they will cut to photos of Obama and Michelle laying sandbags in the French quarter.
And passing out water bottles.
If that model is correct, the media will en masse leave St. Paul.
There will be no media left to cover the Republican convention.
It will all how you how many delegates there are in Denver?
Roughly 4,000.
You know how many credentialed drive bys are there?
Twenty thousand.
Five times the number of delegates.
And if that model, and of course it's a long way out, and it's impossible this far out to tell where this thing is going to go.
But if that model holds steady and turns out to be right, you have been warned.
All right, now let's get back to Ted Kennedy for just a second.
I tell you, I felt for him last night.
You know, you you as I say you watch these things with your mind and your heart at the same time.
But it just wasn't, it does it just wasn't the same.
The applause when he came out was okay, But uh video didn't inspire much because it again he was being repackaged.
He was being presented as somebody he has not been.
He is the aging liberal lion, we are told of the Democrat Party.
And last night we got Gramps.
We got Gramps on the boat opening that video with water.
Closing the video with water.
Chappaquitic.
Anyone.
The speech was written by the Obama people, obviously, and it was the whole night was just flat.
Last night is the only way to describe it.
It was it was just flat.
All right, let's go to the audio sound bites.
What has happened here involving William Ayers and the association he has had with Barack Obama is quite stunning.
Ayers, and this is key, is an unrepentant terrorist.
He is an even at his current age, he drapes himself in the American flag for a photo in a disrespectful manner.
He has apologized not for trying to blow up the Pentagon.
He is unrepentant about any of his anti-American activities.
He was a mentor of Barack Obama's.
Obama has uh has tried to say, I just listened to the neighborhood.
I don't know the guy.
One of these guys I met growing up, he did fundraisers for Obama.
He has been one of the many people who has filled Obama's head with various thoughts on America, as his professors at Harvard have, as the Reverend Wright has, uh, and Tony Resco and a number of other people based on the Chicago machine.
So a 527 group, the American Issue Project, ran an ad.
Here's the audio from the ad.
Consider this.
United 93 never hit the Capitol on 9-11.
But the Capitol was bombed 30 years before by an American terrorist group called Weather Underground that declared war on the U.S., targeting the Capitol, the Pentagon, police stations, and more.
One of the group's leaders, William Ayers, admits to the bombings, proudly saying later, we didn't do enough.
But Barack Obama is friends with Ayers, defending him as quote, respectable and mainstream.
Obama's political career was launched in Ayers home.
And the two served together on a left-wing board.
Why would Barack Obama be friends with someone who bombed the Capitol and is proud of it?
Do you know enough to elect Barack Obama?
That was not a John McCain ad.
That was a group called the American Issue Project.
Now, Obama responded to this.
Here's the audio of his ad.
I'm Barack Obama, and I approve this message.
With all our problems, why is John McCain talking about the 60s trying to link Barack Obama to radical Bill Ayers?
McCain knows Obama denounced Air's crimes committed when Obama was just eight years old.
Let's talk about standing up for America today.
John McCain wants to spend 10 billion a month in Iraq.
Tax breaks for corporations that ship jobs overseas, selling out American workers.
John McCain.
Just more of the same.
Pretty lame.
Pretty lame.
Barack Obama was only eight years old.
Okay, uh John McCain was in a Hanoway Hilton when Joe Biden first got to the Senate.
Big whoop.
Doesn't matter how old Obama was when Ayers was doing what he did.
It's that Obama knew and knows what Ayers did and has still chosen to befriend him.
And Ayers is unrepentant.
The response, the rapid response from Obama.
He had two options here.
Ignore this, let it go.
It was a local buy.
It was not national.
This was running in select cities, select markets, but it was not a national ad.
The Obama campaign has proven the old axiom.
When critics get it right, then you reply.
And when you reply to something they've gotten right, it's evidence that the critic has gotten to you.
And this this defense.
So one of the things that Obama has been able to do, the reason he was elected to the Illinois Senate, he was able to disqualify all of his own opponents.
One of them, a long-standing black woman who had great reputation, the love and devotion from the district that she represented, Obama found A way to disqualify her on something a bunch of his opponents, but he can't disqualify McCain.
He's got a he's running for president of the United States.
And they cannot go through an entire campaign ignoring the associations that Barack Obama has had because Barack Obama is saying things both in Berlin and in the United States that make people question his knowledge of America, his respect for the country, and his.
Well, people question whether he thinks we're a great country or not.
He apparently does not.
He sees the country negatively.
And so does his wife, which is why her speech last night was just Stepford.
It was it was repackaged.
As a caller said earlier, it sounded like a Republican speech.
Michael Baron has written about this.
Let me give you a pull quote from a piece he has posted at Real Clear Politics.
Obama was willing to use Ayers and ally with him despite his terrorist past and lack of repentance.
And that's the key on this as it goes forward is to always characterize airs as unrepentant.
He has not apologized.
He has no regret and no remorse for what he did.
And I I wonder if if somewhere down the road they have to get heirs out there, so I'm looking at this is being way overblown.
I am sorry for that.
I have reformed.
I'm now a college professor, I teach education.
That's going to open up a whole new can of worms if they do that, because what kind of education is he indoctrinating with these students?
And it ain't good.
We know what he's teaching.
And that's part of what he and Obama worked on at this at this foundation.
But if he came out and apologized with the American people, so okay, it's no big deal anymore.
No, we tend to we tend to forgive people who apologize.
But this guy bragged about the bombing of the U.S. Capitol, a Pentagon.
And Obama thinks he's fit to run around with and associate with.
And it was Ayers, by the way, who helped Obama gain insider status in Chicago civic life and politics, the community agitation.
We don't know how much, but clearly they were more than just passing acquaintances.
Most American politicians would not have chosen to associate with a guy like Ayers with his past and his beliefs.
But Obama did, actively chose to go into business with the guy, quote unquote.
And so people might reasonably want to take that into account and try to figure out why, when it's coupled with Jeremiah Wright and the anger that has come out of Michelle's mouth during the campaign and the uh the comments unflattering about America that have come out of Obama's mouth during the campaign.
Quick timeout.
Be back.
Your phone calls are next after this.
Don't go away.
Results as recently as yesterday, McCain up two points now.
So the Obama camp going in reverse one day after their convention starts.
Now, on this on this William Ayers thing, you're you're it's an this is another one of these things, folks, where the drive by us are going to not touch this.
They're gonna leave it alone.
They're gonna have to be dragged kicking and screaming into this.
And when they finally do get there, the question is why are we even having to talk about this?
I mean, what is this so long ago?
Barack Obama, he was only eight years old when when Ayers tried to blow up the Pentagon and so forth.
Uh maybe so, but he was 34 years old when he attended his first Ayers fundraiser.
Obama was born in 1961.
Their first fundraiser was held in 1995.
He has known Ayers for at least 13 years.
Doesn't matter that he was only eight years old when Ayers did his terrorism.
And Obama was not eight years old when Ayers reaffirmed that he was glad to have bombed the Pentagon and only wished that he had done more.
Ayers did that in 2001, six years after the first fundraiser that Obama and Ayers held together, and that was when Obama was 40 years old.
He had served for years with Ayers at the Woods Fund and the Chicago Annenberg Challenge and was planning a run for federal office.
So this notion, this this ad, folks, the fact that he's come up with this ad and that that's his response is an amateurish response.
It is a response as somebody who's guilty, immediately trying to change the subject back to McCain, and he's tired, worn out Democrat cliches about health care and Iraq.
This ad has hit home.
It has hit home so much that the Obama campaign is trying to get it taken off the air.
As I said, it was not run nationally.
Both CNN and Fox News declined to air it.
But by yesterday afternoon, about 150 times it had aired in local markets in Pennsylvania and Ohio, Virginia, and Michigan, according to Evan Tracy, head of the TNS Media Intelligence Campaign Media Analysis Group, which is an ad tracking firm.
Obama's spokesman Tommy Veter said that Obama supporters of inundated stations that are airing the ad, many of them owned by Sinclair Communications.
They claim they sent out 93,000 emails, call the ad false, despicable, and outrageous, and they are trying to get it pulled.
They want to the Justice Department, the FCC, wherever they're going, they want the ad pulled.
Now you don't do that unless this ad's gonna hurt you.
And if the ad can't hurt you because it's false, if you've got a response to it that blows the ad out of the water, then you let the ad run, and you let the ad make a fool of the people that are running the ad, and you let it embarrass McCain.
But the embarrassed figure is Obama.
And that business, well, it's only eight years old when Ayers did that stuff.
Doesn't wash.
Doesn't wash at all because Obama became an adult and knew full well what Ayers had done.
And when Ayers reaffirmed that he had done it in 2001, said he wasn't apologizing for it, said he wished it had been more successful.
Obama had already been an associate of his, an intimate associate, for six years, not a casual acquaintance.
This is a big one.
And it has hit home.
It has struck a nerve.
Christian Pinkston of the American Issues Project, which ran the ad, said seems they protest a bit too much.
They're going all these roots to threats, intimidation, to try to thwart the First Amendment here because they don't have an argument on merit.
And you know something, folks, that is a concise way of describing the entire Obama campaign.
Obama cannot run a campaign on the merits because there aren't any.
He doesn't have any real achievements.
He doesn't have a resume that would even get him hired someplace in a lot of ways.
Yeah, he comes in and speaks well.
Yeah, he's got this great education.
Yeah, he's uh be charismatic, but then you look at the resume and you don't see anything.
You don't see anything.
He says, Yeah, this guy's done a job before.
Other than 140 days in the Senate.
So they can't run a campaign on the merits.
They haven't run a campaign on packaging and repackaging.
And this packaging and repackaging is oriented toward making people think that the Obamas are just like every other American family.
When they're not.
By the way, Edward Cardinal Egan has issued a statement from New York.
Like many other citizens of this nation, I was shocked to learn that the Speaker of the House of Representatives of the United States of America would make the kind of statements that were made to Mr. Tom Brokaw of NBC TV on Sunday.
What the Speaker had to say about theologians and their position regarding abortion was not only misinformed, it was also and especially utterly incredible in this day and age.
We are blessed in the 21st century with crystal clear photographs and action films of the living realities within their pregnant mothers.
No one with the slightest measure of integrity or honor could fail to know what these marvelous beings manifestly clearly and obviously are as they smile and wave into the world outside the womb.
In simplest terms, they are human beings with an inalienable right to live, a right that the Speaker of the House of Representatives is bound to defend at all costs for the most basic of ethical reasons.
They are not parts of their mothers, And what they are depends not at all upon the opinions of theologians of any faith.
Anyone who dares to defend that they may not be legitimately killed, or they may be legitimately killed because another human being chooses to do so, or for any other equally ridiculous reason, should not be providing leadership in a civilized democracy worthy of the name.
She has been slapped hard.
Edward Cardinal Egan, the Archbishop of New York, the Archbishop of Washington has slapped down Pelosi, as have two priests in Colorado.
There will be more now who speak up because of the leadership of Cardinal Egan.
Next up will be Joe Biden.
At what point will the Catholic Church have to say, you know, we got two Democrats misrepresenting their own religion for political purposes, seeking the two highest offices in the land.
We will get to your phones here after one more little item.
There's a uh a blog post today.
Oh, by the way, the uh the Gallup tracking poll I've just mentioned at McCain Up 2 after the first night, no bounce, no bounce in Biden, no bounce from Teddy, no bounce from Michelle My Bell.
Could we maybe convince a Democrats to go two weeks with their convention?
I mean, just tell them, hey, you know, this is so great.
You're you're you're rivaling the Olympics out there with excitement.
Why don't you guys go a second week?
I'm sure Denver would love to have you.
A post at a blog called Gateway Pundit.
Guy said, you know, the the reading this, listening to his speech last night, and Michelle My Bell said two things here that I thought were vaguely familiar.
And he was right.
Michelle Obama has quoted lines from Saul Alinsky's radical manifesto called Rules for Radicals.
She said Barack stood up that day talking about a visit to the Chicago neighborhoods, spoke words that have stayed with me ever since.
He talked about the world as it is and the world as it should be.
All of us driven by a simple belief that the world as it is just won't do, that we have an obligation to fight for the world as it should be.
Here's an excerpt from chapter two of Saul Alinsky's book Rules for Radicals.
The means and ends moralists constantly obsessed with the ethics of the means used by the have nots against the haves, should search themselves as to their real political position.
In fact, they're passive, but real allies of the halves.
The most unethical of all means is the non-use of any means.
The standards of judgment must be rooted in the wise and the wherefores of life as it is lived, the world as it is, not our wished-for fantasy of the world as it should be.
Now, I'm sure some of you are saying, why, Rush, why are you obsessing?
I'm not obsessed.
Why are you spending so much time on Michelle and parsing it and picking it apart?
Well, ladies and gentlemen, I I two things, maybe even more.
One, I've always come behind the microphone on this program, shared with you my passions.
And as you know, all of us or most of us in this audience have a vested interest in the United States of America remaining the kind of country it was as founded, with the rule of law and individual freedom and liberty, pursuit of happiness, all of these things, capitalism free markets, and they're they're genuinely under assault.
They're under assault not just by a guy running for president, they're under assault by an entire political party and a class, a political class of leftists, who are everywhere, including in the drive-by media.
They seek power to deny others liberty.
They may think they're doing it all for the common good, but they pose a great threat to me for the future of this country as we know it, and as you would like for it to remain for your kids and your grandkids and their kids and grandkids.
So we have a candidate who has been in no sane political party would dare nominate a guy like this, and I'm not talking about anything other than he has no experience.
Uh he's got no achievements, but his associations with genuine American-hating Radicals occasionally cause him to say things that lead me to believe he's bought into a lot of what he's heard.
I think he's bought into it, and I think he repeats it.
I think he is the formation of a uh of an indoctrination that has occurred to him his whole life, and now he seeks the presidency.
Now anybody can try for it, but this party, the Democrat Party, as I said earlier, would nominate Daffy Duck if they thought Daffy Duck could win.
They may have nominated Daffy Duck, in fact, in Barack Obama.
Well, no, d Porky the pig is the vice presidential nominee.
But the this this this stuff matters, it's real, and when we have a drive-by media, which is not interested.
They don't care either.
They don't care who Obama really is.
In fact, they know and want to cover it up.
And so it has to get out there.
You know, what you do with it is up to you.
But these associations and these uh ideas, the lack of specificity from this guy, uh all we have is what we know, and what we know is is not flattering.
And so I think it's just it's imperative that all of these things be uh be spoken so as to be so as you can be informed and people understand that this is not about image, it's not about hope, it's not about change, it's not about all these meaningless, vapid nothings.
Presidential elections matter greatly.
And this one does too.
And if we end up with the wrong group of people running this country from the top down, it's gonna take years to straighten it out and fix it.
All right, to the phones.
I have had diarrhea of the mouth uh for most of the program, which comes natural to me, ladies and gentlemen.
I'm watching this thing, and I just I th there's so much to say about it.
I have every thought that I express to you.
I'm thinking two others at the same time I'm speaking.
And so I'll interrupt myself and want to say, oh, by the way, did you see this, did see that?
And I'm afraid genuinely there's so many thoughts I'm gonna lose my train of thought.
Which seldom happens.
But it is a gold mine.
While it's boring and dull, it still is a gold mine.
All right, here's Patty.
Patty's been waiting for Biloxi, Mississippi.
You're next.
Thanks for the patience, and hello.
Hey, Rush, it's an honor.
I've been a devoted listener since 1988.
Thank you.
Um I think that the depths of orchestration of this whole thing was made evident in Obama's little cameo, where I just noticed it didn't quite sound right when he called his little daughter Sweetie twice.
And it came to fruition later on nightline when they were doing a little um story on the women, Hillary supporters who were chanting outside the Pepsi Center, you know, gone between caucus fraud and sweetie, making reference to the derogatory statement uh he made to the little reporterette a few months ago.
And I just think that the depth of trying to create a you know like a back history, like, you know, oh well, he calls his daughter Sweetie, so it's n it could never be a derogatory comment for a woman.
Um see, this isn't this is a great illustration, too.
And you are showing the value of spending time on these things.
You've been with it since 1988, so you are on your own, able to pick up on these kind of things watching the drive-bys.
But there is no anything that comes along that would cast him in a negative light, the drive-by's are going to try to cover it up and reposition it and restate it so that it doesn't harm him in any way.
They're out there running cover for the guy.
Exactly.
Exactly.
And so if they're running cover, we got to penetrate it.
Thanks, sweetie for the phone call.
It's great to you bet.
Not a problem doll.
Doug in uh in Fitchburg, Massachusetts.
Nice to have you on the program.
Oh, Rush, uh, we love you in Matt.
Keep up the good work.
Thank you.
Hey, I was uh watching the DNC last night trying to stay awake, and uh Michelle was talking.
And they and she's talking about how um she gave birth and how he drove the kids home from the hospital, and they pinned the crowd to the little old woman with glasses on, and she's got tears in her eyes and she's wiping them away.
I'm like I I think I did the same thing, only when I was crying, my kids on the way home, you know.
Um, oh my god, they're talking about my heart strings so much.
I don't think that's what I don't think that's what the tears were about.
You don't think so?
No, no, no, because I mean if if Democrats are gonna try if they're if they're genuinely gonna cry when a mother successfully gets her babies home from the hospital, then we are in more trouble than even I imagined.
I don't think they were crying because of the It's Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
It is a big deal for Democrats to get a baby home alive.
You're right.
You know what?
You're right.
You're right.
I I I you you think about it.
You yeah, you're good for you.
They were well, maybe they were crying.
You never know when the news that a baby got home healthily, that may they could have been crying in sadness because he said the abortion movement back.
Seriously, I th I think that they were crying because this young, attractive black woman running as first lady for their husband, and she's heir.
It's it's it's like in in San Francisco, 1984.
Democrat Convention.
I was there.
And Marion Barry, who was the mayor of Washington at the time, was just going nuts making his speech.
And the theme of his speech was Tonight, tonight, we on the inside.
And so remember now the attitude is that uh liberal blacks are discriminated against, they're still in slavery, there's still all kinds of oppression out there.
And here's one of us on stage running for in the White House.
And I think they just were overcome with emotion.
It's it's sort of like, remember after Clinton was elected, the week between um uh well the f the the the week leading up to his inauguration, the Democrats took over the mall, and they had all these song stylists like Aretha Franklin and actors and so forth.
Ron Silver was there, Ron Silver at the time was a Democrat.
But all of the singers were singing songs that were written by people who had been jailed unjustifiably and had gotten out.
It's like they had been released from prison with the election of Bill Clinton.
And at the same time that these songs were going on, a couple of Air Force jets did a flyby, and Ron Silver was with somebody and looked up and saw the military jets.
What the hell is that?
Wait a way, wait a military jets and this a film.
And then the guy with Ron Silver saying, Ron, Ron, supposed your jets now.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah, oh yeah.
So I think there's just a a general you have to look at you have to understand the mind of a liberal.
A mind of a liberal is not grounded in reality.
The mind of a liberal does not see positive optimism.
The mind of a liberal is a different beast, folks.
It's got a whole different DNA genetic code in there.
And you have to be a highly trained specialist to understand it.
Quick time as I am.
We'll be right back.
Stay with us.
Rush Lindbull with talent on loan from God to Greensboro, North Carolina.
This is Roseanne.
Welcome.
Great to have you here.
Hey, Ross.
You know, Bill Clinton has an excellent opportunity here to make for himself a legacy that might not be half bad by not being Nancy Pelosi's little dog and pony show.
When Bill Clinton was in office, you used to talk excellently about how he was obsessed by his legacy, and when you're obsessed with your legacy, you don't create a legacy.
And from where I live in North Carolina, when we try to do Operation Chaos, people hate Bill Clinton because they see him as being responsible for losing their jobs.
They put free trade on his shoulders.
And another Bill Clinton legacy is moral relativism, which you know, people don't have to do right by their family because everybody's a sinner.
That's what they said about Bill when he was dropping his hand.
Oh, wait a minute.
Speaking of that, you've got to hear this exchange between Katie Cruic, the perky one, and Jeff Greenfield last night at the Democrat National Convention's audio soundbite number 14.
Just listen to this exchange, Roseanne.
Do you think the voters really want to see a couple who is faithful to one another?
Yes, and I believe in the primaries you you quoted Harry Truman often to these candidates saying if a man can't be honest with his wife, could he be honest with the country?
A lot of Americans believe that.
And even many more want to see what's this dynamic is like, whatever that marriage is.
They think they can see the president through the marriage.
So there, I mean, you have just nailed it, Roseanne.
Clinton's legacy is moral relevance.
What this this Katie Current question, did you people hear this?
Do you think the voters really want to see a couple who are faithful to one another?
And Greenfield says, yes, and I believe in the primary.
What a question.
It's almost as crazy as Chris Collinsworth asking Kobe Bryant, are you sure you want to sound all patriotic?
Big red, white, and blue.
You sure that goes over anymore?
Rush, you are my children's father figure because of the void their father who jumped on the moral relative Van Wake and Gap.
Anne Coulter is a lot of for men I know who are raising their children alone, Anne Coulter is their children's mother figure.
And that's why we raise decent children.
If Bill Clinton refuses to be Nancy Pelosi's dog and pony, he can be a cult figure to those of us who go to any government building that's controlled by the minute.
Hold it.
Hold it.
What are you saying he should do?
I think he should go up there and he should stand strong to the fact that he thinks they're all ridiculous.
He should stand on his principles.
In the short term, he'll lose.
In the long term, we'll rise him up as a club figure.
Hold it.
What principles?
You're talking about Bill Clinton here.
What principles?
But it goes along the same lines as what you said.
If somebody's willing to say I'm sorry, we'll forgive them if he s if he how could he benefit himself?
It's like he's putting the nails on his own coffin.
He's letting Nancy Pelosi reduce him to a dog and pony show.
You mean by you mean by by the edict that he speaks on the foreign policy in his speech tomorrow?
All of it.
All of it is ridiculous.
What they did to Hillary, everything.
This is all.
Oh, I know, but you know what?
Let me let me tell you something.
Last night was a dull dry ball convention.
The names Bush and McCain were not mentioned.
The convention got no hate.
There were no professionals running that show last night.
So Hillary gets on there tonight, and I will guarantee you, whatever Hillary does, and it may be multifaceted, it's going to be based on two things.
It's going to be based on showing these Obama people who the real politicians in this party are, because Hillary and her crowd are going to have this crowd so pumped up and filled with hate tonight of Bush, of McCain, of all of this, and they're going to be showing the Obama people how to do it.
At the same time, Hillary is going to be telling this convention, see what you blew.
You could have had me.
Hillary's going to be standing up there thinking, this was mine.
It was all mine.
And they took it away from me for the dweeb.
Okay, so she's gonna she's gonna try to tell people what a mistake they made.
And then Clinton goes tomorrow night.
Now I understand Clinton not wanting to talk about foreign policy.
Look at what happened when he was president of World Trade Center bombing in 93, the USS Cole, um the uh the the embassies being blown up, leading to 9-11, Kosovo equals Georgia, Somalia, the genocide of Rwanda.
Of course he doesn't want to talk about foreign policy, because he had a lousy one.
He wants to talk about his great economy.
A former Clinton advisor said Monday that Bill Clinton's not happy that he's been asked to deliver a speech on national security.
I don't know what he's gonna do.
He may not be able to help himself.
Here is Todd in Lima, Ohio.
Todd, you're next on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hey, sir.
Thank you for taking my call.
I appreciate it.
You bet.
Hey, I just have a comment last night uh about the DNC convention.
Yeah.
One thing that I really noticed last night when I first turned it on is when Pelosi was on stage.
Every time the camera faced out to the audience or took an audience shot, I noticed the audience didn't look enthused.
There was people standing, milling around, trying to find their seats, and she just was trying to raise her voice above the crown, just talking.
I I have stated previously on this program that I, and I am alone alone, am uniquely qualified to understand and explain the liberal mind.
Let me explain Nancy Pelosi to you.
She is in a fantasy dream world.
She's in an alternative universe.
She is convinced that this whole country is just thrilled and happy and impressed and in awe of her, because she's the first woman to become speaker.
She doesn't see that she barely sells 4,000 books.
She doesn't see a board audience.
She doesn't s she has literally no concept of how irrelevant most people think of her.
And those who don't think of her as irrelevant look at her as somebody who is dangerous, uninformed, cliched, purely partisan, and uh incompetent.
Nancy Pelosi, we were just talking about her.
Nancy Pelosi told Democrats this morning that all these polls are underestimating the strength of Obama.
