And Oprah has come out and said, I'm not going to put Palin on here.
Drudge's reports wrong.
We're not even considering putting palin on here.
I'm not going to use my show as a candidate platform.
Ha ha ha.
Be happy to have Iran after the election.
Thank you, Oprah.
Thank you.
I really mean it.
Last thing we need is for this woman, Sarah Palo to be turned into some sort of pop culture celebrity.
Live from the Southern Command in sunny South Florida.
It's open line Friday.
Telephone numbers 800-282-2882.
Email address L Rushbow at EIB net.com and your phone calls will be coming up El Quico here.
They need to call this law in Maryland Monica's Law because they're not really just outlawing sex.
They're outlawing sex between officials and employees.
Maryland state elected officials who have sexual relationships with employees under their supervision.
Would be violating state ethics law if a county commissioner gets his way.
The ethics law would not apply, however, if the official and the worker were married to each other.
So they don't want to ban sex in the office if you're married.
They just want to ban sex if you're not.
Still screw the rest of us from their offices in the bureaucracy, but they can't screw their employees.
Frederick County Commissioner John Thompson says the proposal is a response to a specific situation, but he will not name the people who are involved out of consideration for innocent third parties.
Thompson wants the issue included in a county's list of state legislative priorities.
Several local lawmakers say they would oppose this.
Think of that.
Think of that.
Several local lawmakers say they would oppose the proposal.
They want to keep having sex with subordinates.
Sarah Palin, this afternoon, as you know, made some great comments about Obama and his stupid comments on the surge.
Obama is in Scranton.
And said this.
Global warming is a serious problem.
It's not just some tree hugger, you know, uh sprout-eaten liberal thing.
You know, the polar ice caps are melting.
Temperatures are getting warmer in the oceans, and it could wreak havoc on our agriculture.
It could increase insect-born diseases.
But it is really mess things up, making hurricanes and tornadoes much more powerful and change weather patterns fundamentally.
So we've got to take this seriously.
And I've got the most aggressive plan to try to roll back.
Uh global warming.
Bloom is off the rose here.
This this is just amateur day in Scranton, Pennsylvania.
Well, uh, global warming is a serious problem.
Uh, not just some uh tree hugger uh sprout-eaten liberal thing.
It's exactly what it is.
You know, polarized caps.
This guy, listen, I gotta hear this again.
This this guy's he's becoming laughable to me here.
Global warming is a serious problem.
It's not just some tree hugger, you know, uh sprout-eaten liberal thing.
Yeah, missing the prompter argument.
The polar ice caps are melting.
Temperatures are getting warmer in the oceans, and it could wreak havoc on our agriculture.
It could increase insect-born diseases.
It's recap.
It could really mess things up, making hurricanes and tornadoes much more powerful and change weather patterns fundamentally.
So we've got to take this seriously.
And I've got the most aggressive plan to try to roll back uh global warming.
Right, he's gonna lower the sea level.
Here's the thing about you know, I I don't even I really reluctant to take it any serious uh degree at all, but global warming would help agriculture in a lot of parts of the world if it would actually happen.
The thing that kills agriculture is global cooling.
But uh missing the prompter here.
Uh, not just some tree hugger, uh, sprout-eating liberal thing.
By the way, from the BBC today, the environmental minister in the UK, Sammy Wilson has angered green campaigners by describing their view on climate change as a hysterical pseudo religion.
In an article in the newsletter, Mr. Wilson said he believed it occurred naturally, was not man-made.
Resources should be used to adapt to the consequences of climate change rather than a King Canute style vainly trying to stop it, said the minute.
This guy's right.
We can't stop it anyway.
We've adapted to these things all of our existence.
Poor little Barry.
Poor little I don't want to jump the gun here, but this is.
What happened to our Messiah?
What happened to Mr. Infallible?
Let's go to the top of the audio sound bites.
This is last night on DNC TV, David Gregory talking to the president of the Nags.
Kim Gandhi.
And Gregory said, is Sarah Palin a feminist?
I think that if she identifies herself as a feminist, she probably is.
But my guess is that she does not identify with the feminist movement.
She's been promoted all summer long by Rush Limbaugh, who uh calls women's rights supporters feminazis.
No, I do not call liberal pro abortion fanatics like you.
Feminazis.
Feminazis are liberals first.
It's incidental that they're female.
Let's go back.
People say Rush, it's all these guys, Gloria Steinem and uh now Kim Gandhi, another guy saying that I've been talking about Sarah Palin all year long.
And I've had some people say, Rush, I don't remember you ever talking about Sarah Palin.
Oh, yes, oh really?
Well, let's go back to February 26th, 2008.
Me on my own show.
Speaking of vice presidential nominees, a new name is surfaced on the Republican side.
She is Sarah Palin.
I hope I'm pronouncing that right.
P-A-L-I-N.
She was born as Sarah Louise Heath in 1964 in Sand Point, Idaho.
She's the governor of Alaska.
She is the youngest governor in Alaskan history.
She was 42 upon taking office.
She's also the first woman to hold the office in Alaska.
In addition to being uh Alaska's youngest governor, she is also the first who was born after Alaska achieved statehood.
The uh the first to be inaugurated, not be inaugurated in June O, instead choosing to hold her inauguration ceremony in Fairbanks.
She took uh office on Monday, December 4th, 2006.
Lieutenant Governor Sean Parnell Palin is the former mayor of Wasala, Alaska.
Her husband Todd works on a north slope as a commercial fisherman.
She has four children.
Bristol, Piper, Track, and Willow.
Yeah, kids have strange names, but off record, off limits.
Names of the kids Bristol Piper, Track, and Willow.
And she's a babe.
She's a babe.
I mean, you gotta say it, she's a babe.
So her name is surfaced.
High up on the list now, potential vice presidents for Senator McCain.
I know I didn't know what to pronounce her name at the time.
I'd never heard it pronounced at the time.
I'd read all this Palin or Wasilla as uh as her hometown.
But that's February 26th.
February 26th.
So, you know, Kim Gandhi.
What's her face?
Uh Gloria Steinem yesterday, yeah, Limbaugh.
I've been calling talking about her all summer long, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Uh Situation Room CNN, uh, montage.
The CNN, I think, has a reporter assigned to me, an infobe named uh uh Carol Costello.
And they had a uh beat reporter, this uh Carol Costello uh do a story on me and Sarah Palin.
You know what I'm finding?
As I read some of the media blogs and I'm they're stunned that I like a woman, a woman.
You know, they they really think that my opposition to feminism means that I'm a misogynist, and that I don't like women.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
But they're still stunned by it, and I think that's one of the themes that runs through this report.
This is a montage Of CNN's beat reporter on me.
Rush Limbaugh says she makes his heart crazy and his mind nuts.
Dare we say it?
Some conservatives are.
Sarah Palin is their Barack Obama.
Charismatic, compelling, a rock star.
Conservatives can love.
Talker Rush Limbaugh called her fabulous.
A once-in-a-lifetime politician who can spin a line.
That luxury jet was over the top.
She sold the state jet.
I put it on eBay.
I put it on eBay.
This lady has turned it all around.
And John McBrilliant pulls this off with the gutsy choice of Sarah Palin.
This from a guy who once urged Republicans to vote for Hillary Clinton over John McCain.
Never did that.
Never said that.
Never said I vote for Hillary over Obama.
You ditz.
Why am I so I gotta I got a new name for Sarah Palin?
The Lorena Bobbitt of Republican politics.
Steve Gilbert at the Sweetnessandlight.com blog sent me a little archival story from July 30th of this year, the New York Times about what Obama did teach in uh in in law school.
The young law professor stood apart in too many ways to count at a scruel where economic analysis was all the rage, he taught rights, race, and gender.
In law school, Barack Obama taught rights, race, and gender, which is agitation.
It means he wanted people to be mad.
Other faculty members dreamed of tenured positions, he turned them down.
Oh.
While most colleagues published by the pound, he never completed a single work of legal scholarship.
And this, according to the New York Times, is an asset.
Mr. Obama marched students through the thickets of campaign finance law.
I can translate that.
What that means.
Here's how to register a bunch of times.
Here's how to contribute multiple times, get away with it.
Before he helped redraw his own state Senate district.
This gets better with every sentence.
Making it whiter and wealthier.
Obama taught districting as a racially fraught study in how power is secured.
And before he posed what may be the ultimate test of racial equality, whether Americans would elect a black president, he led students through African Americans' long fight for equal status.
So he's a civil rights agitator in law school.
This is what he was doing in a pretty pretty good window, I think, into what he was doing in uh his community organizing.
All right, people have been waiting patiently on the phone.
So I want to go to Oklahoma City start with Tammy.
Thanks for your patience, and welcome to the EIB network.
Hello.
Hi, Rush.
Hi.
Pleasure to talk to you.
Thank you.
And I totally agree with you that Sarah Palin is a new kind of feminist.
She's actually not a new kind.
It's been around for a long time.
I have a women's studies minor because, like all people when I was in college who grew up conservative, I turned into a big rebel.
Well, my way of rebelling was to be a big old feminist.
So I'm a women's studies minor, and we were taught that there's two schools of feminism.
You have the first camp that thinks that men and women are all the same.
The only reason that we act differently is because we are, however, socialized.
And I believe that all these liberal uh journalists, female journalists, the liberal female politicians, all belong to this camp.
And you have a second camp, and they believe that men and women are inherently different.
But what is female should be valued.
And that's the kind of feminist that I believe Sarah Palin is.
That's the kind of feminist as I am as a conservative Christian woman.
That what is female should be valued in a society.
And they don't know what to do with her.
And now suddenly they all want to switch camps, influencers.
Now they don't want to swear.
That first camp that you described, you know what their big tactical mistake was.
Well, their big tactical mistake occurred be because they were mad.
They were mad about everything.
I mean, everything.
They were just outraged.
And so that was the that was the uh impetus behind changing.
And what they want to do, what they struck out to do was to become just like men.
So they wanted to dress like men, they wanted to pursue corporate careers like men, they wanted to invade male-only clubs.
Right.
Because they were being they were just mad.
And of course, no man wants a woman to be like him.
I don't want to be like a man.
I mean, I want to be valued as a woman.
Because, you know, I feel sorry for men sometimes that they can't be more like women in some ways, but I don't expect them to be.
I expect my man to be a man.
And I expect me to act like a woman.
So that bugs me as a big thing.
See, that opens up a can of worms because in different people's uh attitudes, you know, what what's a woman.
You know, what what I think if you look at if you look at Hillary Clinton let's let's say Hillary Clinton side by side with Sarah Palin, uh Hillary Clinton is has been held up for the longest time as the archetypical victim of a male dominating, oppressing society.
She gave up everything that she could have been on her own to trek to the sticks of Arkansas with a hayseed that she met at Yale, who she thought might be present someday.
So she she broomed everything on her own, hitched up with this guy, and then decided that when he got wherever he was going to go, she would take over.
In the process, he humiliates her with all these affairs and so forth, but she doesn't care per se, not like a normal woman would, because she's got another agenda, which is shared power and her own future power.
So she puts up with all that.
That's not that's not being a woman.
But but she's been held up as as a feminine.
Now you take Sarah Palin, who basically runs her life, and she's found a way to incorporate men in it and love a man, twenty years, incorporate her children in it, love them.
The early phrase I remember with the ma militant feminists was women can have it all.
That being a traditional woman denied them the chance to have it all because they were uh subservient to men.
Uh Sarah Palin has be she is the epitome of exactly what the militant feminist told women that they should be.
And now look who they dump on.
They dump on her not because for any reason other than she is a Republican and a conservative.
So feminism is about liberalism.
Your your second definition of feminism has no political context to it.
The first feminism that you describe does is totally politics.
It's just it's just a fig leaf for another tentacle of liberalism.
Well, uh, what I love is having being a mother of two daughters, is Sarah Palin is going to change the whole conversation about what being a feminist means.
And that goes.
No, it's not.
Well, please don't.
Why wh why you keep using the term feminist?
Why have they label this?
She's a woman.
Why why can't you say she's going to redefine what it is to be a modern woman in the business of politics?
Well, you know what?
I will I will accept that because you're exactly right.
And I can show this to my daughters and say, you know, you don't have to be this one way to be a strong woman.
This is an example.
I show them every day what that means.
But now they have someone politically that they can just really rally around.
The first strain of feminism you described believed that a f Sarah Palin woman in many ways was impossible.
Because if she if she committed to a devoting marriage and and and and and uh had a bunch of kids, that she was sacrificing herself, that she was giving up and and violating the tenets of the sisterhood.
That she was demeaning herself, that she was missing out on so much.
And it it it it's all I it's like I said yesterday.
There are Sarah Palins all over this country.
It's just they're not known.
But these are the women that go to the PTA and they're fighting the bureaucracy and the education, and if their towns are doing things they don't like, they go fight the town and so forth, and then they take the kids to play baseball or soccer or whatever.
And they may have, you know, a husband running around that they have to keep in line here and there, but I mean these women are all over the place.
They're the backbone of America.
They're the literal backbone of America.
She's she's what makes her unique is that she's visible.
Now everybody i has different capabilities and and and and different uh degrees of ambition.
And it may well be that not every woman could handle the life Sarah Palin's chosen for self, but she can.
Enough said.
It doesn't diminish anybody else who doesn't do that what she does.
This whole notion that women ought to all be the same, that they ought to all be militant.
They ought all to be hanging out together, hanging in together, uh, everything for the sisterhood and so forth.
Typical liberal groupism.
Typical socialist take away the individuality here.
All about advancing some quant some sort of perverted movement, which is true purpose was to subvert a traditional American culture, which is what militant feminism always has been.
To the extent that militant feminism is uh is been nuked, it's not because Sarah Palin's a feminist, because she's a real woman.
It's open line Friday.
We go back to the phones, and uh this is Colville, Utah.
The Steve, nice to have you on the program, sir.
Rush.
Yes.
Ditto's from a 41-year-old white heterosexual, middle class, pro-life married police officer who enjoyed hunting.
Member of the American minority.
It's great to have you here.
Call from here on the High Prairie.
Uh, we could use a little uh global warming, because uh I didn't even put my crops in this year.
We had snow until June, and it started snowing again on September 1st, so I hope it comes.
But uh Rush, I wanted to thank you for today's morning update, because uh I watched MSNBC last night and more out of morbid curiosity than anything else.
And Oberman Matthews and that group.
I mean it just disgusting.
I'm driving into work today and I heard your morning update, calling out those drive-by hacks by name.
Assassin so and so, carpet bombers so and so.
Absolutely priceless.
I was laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes.
And uh I wanted to thank you for having the guts to do that and calling those jackals out by name.
I've always believed that's what you do.
I have always name them.
That's why I always read who the whoever the byline on this story read them.
Tell people who wrote this stuff.
And uh because they deserve to know so that next time they read something about these people will have a little bit of perspective in context.
I appreciate what you said.
It's very nice.
I'm glad it I'm glad you uh enjoyed it.
Well, you know, I was on the sidelines for this election because I didn't really have a candidate, but uh after seeing Sarah, and then uh also these these hacks in the media.
I sent in the largest donation I've ever sent to any candidate, and I bet you there's others that are gonna do the same.
Well, terrific.
I'm glad you called.
Thanks very much out there, Steve.
I I have uh, ladies and gentlemen, the text of today's morning update.
You may not have heard it.
Let me briefly run through it so that you are informed as to his call.
Starts this way.
Governor Sarah Palin's home run acceptance speech sent chills of fear throughout the Democrat Party.
Their war room launched a rapid response effort led by special forces from the Associated Press.
AP Sniper Dina Capiello reported that the nickname for Sarah Palin among environmentalist wackos is the killer from Wasilla, because she has a philosophy of cut, kill, drig and dri a dig and drill.
Palin's chief environmental sin is that she doesn't buy into the man-made global warming hooks.
AP Storm Trooper Eric Gorsky handled the religious attack, accusing Palin of hiding her true faith.
Sarah Palin often identifies herself simply as Christian, he wrote.
Yet Don McCain's running mate has deep roots in Pentecostalism.
A spirit-filled Christian tradition that is one of the fastest growing in the world, if often derided by outside and Bible believers alike.
Do you think that AP stormtrooper Eric Gorsky, when writing about Maryland representative Bob Wexler, representing Florida, living in Maryland, would ever write.
Yet Mr. Wexler has deep roots in Judy.
Do you think that would ever happen?
Of course it won't happen.
Sarah Palin.
They can just impugn whatever they want.
AP Demolition specialist, Ted Anthony, was assigned the job of carpet bombing the family.
He suggested Palin's photo ups with her children, even at the convention, came across as contradictory.
Hey, media, leave these kids alone so we Republicans can use them as we see fit, is supposedly the message the Palins are sending.
And then of course, veteran A.P. Hitman, Ron Fournier was called to defend the drive by his blitzkrieg on Sarah Palin.
He wrote the media views its job as scrutinizing her background, helping voters determine her readiness to serve.
No Ron.
What is clear to all is that your mission is to destroy her.
As it is the mission of A.P. Sniper Dina Capiello, AT AP Stormtrooper Eric Gorski, and AP Demolition Specialist Ted Anthony, all from the AP Special Forces team.
Your effort is to destroy her.
Your purpose is to destroy her.
And it will not happen this time.
Jerry in Milwaukee.
Welcome, sir, to the Rush Limbaugh program.
Hello.
All right, thanks for taking my call, Rush.
Um, this pick by um uh Senator McCain, uh, I believe it was kind of a desperate pick because he picked someone much more conservative than him to appeal to the far right.
He his campaign admitted they didn't really fully vet uh her because they wanted to keep it a secret.
And and things are coming out after the last week and a half.
Imagine if Michelle Obama had connections to a successionist party like Todd Palin, the the the husband ha has connections to a successionist party.
Imagine she would be said you would call her an American, you would say that she hates America.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, Jerry.
Let me try to say straight.
Uh her husband had flirtings with a secessionist party.
She didn't.
Michelle Obama took her kids every Sunday to Jeremiah Wright's church, where her kids got to hear some of the most anti-American drivel hate speech ever.
This pick, you're you're dead wrong about it.
You're living in fear.
This pick by McCain was brilliant because this pick is not to the far right.
There is no far right of any size and substance.
This pick unified the conservative base of the Republican Party to the party.
McCain could not do that on his own.
He can't win without Republican conservatives excited about the ticket, and they are.
He's now free to go out and be who he is, campaign for his precious moderates and independents and so forth.
Uh it was smart pick.
It was uh that's that's more than that.
That is why on this program his name recently has been morphed and changed into John McBrilliant.
This is Tim in San Diego.
Tim, thank you for calling your next on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hi, Rush.
Okay, you just brought up the topic I'm calling about.
Uh I called about McCain, but can I make a quick comment about Sarah Palin's baby?
Go for it.
Okay.
I think that one reason.
Which you mean the the uh the the five-year-old, the five month old?
Yes, uh, got I think that one reason the liberals don't want Sarah Palin on the ticket is because if she were elected, it would mean that there would be a down syndrome baby in the White House.
And that's exactly the same kind of baby that Obama voted against protecting if they survive an abortion.
Because he said he didn't want to grant personhood status to those babies.
That's a good point.
The very existence of that baby gives Obama a problem because of his stand in favor of infanticide.
Exactly.
And here would be a vice president raising a down syndrome baby before the eyes of the whole country.
And so what better illustration could there be of the chasm between the culture of life and the liberals' culture of death?
So that's my point on that.
We'll exactly take that.
Okay, now I the real reason I called is to implore you to please not use the phrase John McBrilliant when describing McCain.
And let me let me lay out why.
I feel McCain is the same guy he's always been.
Now he may be a clever strategist, but you know, a few smart moves don't make him brilliant.
Remember, it was only a few months ago that this guy was saying that he will proudly sign the Kyoto Accords, something Clinton wouldn't even do.
And you, my friend, were saying, we are so screwed.
Do you remember that?
Yeah.
Yeah.
We were.
This is the same guy.
Past tense, we were.
Well, hear me out, hear me out here.
This is the same guy who didn't get the nomination last time he ran for president because of his disparaging remarks against Christians.
This is John, you know, gang of fourteen, McCain Feingold.
I approve this message, McCain, who even In his speech last night talked about putting Democrats in his in his administration.
And this is a guy who just two weeks ago was seriously considering putting a liberal Democrat, Lieberman, in the number two spot on the ticket.
But he didn't.
Yeah, that's true.
I agree.
There was a time in the distance past when you used to refer to him sarcastically as President McCain.
Do you remember that?
Yes, and Vice President Graham.
Yes.
And you haven't used that phrase for a while, and I know why you haven't.
Because this principle.
Wait a minute.
Look where it got us.
Okay.
I and now I agree.
And I'm going to vote for McCain.
And I hope that's a good thing.
Okay, you just don't want me to say that he's brilliant.
You don't want me to call him McBride.
That's a guesty choice, Chris.
I agree.
I agree.
But that doesn't make him brilliant.
It just means that he he made a smart move.
Before I hang up, can I get you to promise me that you will not refer to him as John McBrillian?
You can say an act that he did is brilliant.
But before his first 100 days in office are through, could you please not do that?
Because otherwise I swear I will barf when I hear you say it.
Can't make the pledge.
Oh God.
Can't make the pledge.
What do I have to do to get your vote on this one, Frank?
Well, you've got to understand part of the part of the uh the genius and the wizardry behind calling him McBrilliant is to tweak the media.
Don't forget what we do here.
Uh we love to keep him confounded and and and uh off uh off stride.
We know who McCain is.
We know what he's going to do.
We we he's 73 years old.
We have what we have here, and we have a reality has to be dealt with.
And the uh you know, I just have a a personality type.
Once something's settled, you move on.
You don't whine about what you can't change, and you don't start telling your stories about disasters that are going to happen down the road.
You're gonna be miserable.
You start talking to yourself today about what McCain's first hundred days are going to be about, to me you're whining.
I don't know what they're gonna be about.
I have no clue if they're even going to happen.
I don't know that he's going to win.
So, you know, I try to live in the now.
Somebody has to stand for the now.
There are too many people living in the future, and those that do that are always negative.
They're always telling themselves the worst.
And I'm I can't, I I know it's a natural human tendency.
I no longer do it.
I used to, like everybody else, I do not do it.
Folks, you know, if I were like some of you, I wouldn't be here today.
I can't tell you what it is.
It's not a big deal to you, but today I have been waiting for this day since April the third.
Can't tell you why.
Over the past six months, three, well, three or four months, I could have spent these last three months.
It ain't gonna happen.
It ain't gonna happen.
I'm gonna be miserable, I'm gonna run around complaining, it ain't gonna happen.
And I could be bugging the people who are in charge of making it happen, and they'd hate my guts by now.
Because no amount of whining and complaining can change what's gonna happen.
This is like three Christmases rolled into one to me today.
And I still don't know if Santa Claus is gonna make it down a chimney, even though I was told I would know an hour and forty-five minutes ago.
Now, if I dwelled in the future and focused on the negative, I could not have done the brilliant show I have to date done today.
It would have been miserable, I'd have been distracted, I would have been this or that.
Things are what they are.
And the future, we don't have a slightest clue.
We don't know.
And to start living in the future, you can prepare if you want, and a lot of people try to prepare for either eventuality or multiple eventualities if they got something big, you know, coming down the road.
I understand that.
But to go into the future, which you can't possibly know, and then start telling yourself stories about how rotten it's gonna be.
Why make yourself miserable?
We have no idea what's gonna happen next week on the campaign trail.
What of these three could screw up?
Say something total four.
We know Biden will.
It's a question of how bad it's gonna be and so forth.
You just live in the now.
Learn from the past, and be stealed for the future by not having it already figured out in your head to the point that it's doom.
We'll be back in a second.
And we are back at Rush Ball serving humanity.
Half my brain tied behind my back Just to make it fair.
By the way, you know this secession business.
This is this is one of the lamest straws.
The lamest little twigs that the left have out there to try to go after Sarah Palin on the basis that her husband Todd supported secession for Alaska.
Now, two things.
Look at me on this.
Follow me.
Two things.
Now, I don't support secession, obviously, but I can damn well understand why people in Alaska feel put out.
Here you have a bunch of elite city slicker liberals in New York and California and elsewhere.
And remember they don't like liberals in these urban areas.
They don't like liberal politicians telling them when, how, and where they can explore for and drill for their own natural resources.
They don't like having to hear Harry Reid and Harry and Nancy Pelosi tell them when and where they can't do things.
They don't like hearing it from Obama.
They don't like being told that they can't use their habitats and all of that.
Now, I don't support secession for Alaska, but I understand why people get ticked off up there.
By the way, I said McCain 73, 72.
But can we go back to the recent past?
There was a piece by John Fund on June 12th of 2006 in the Wall Street Journal.
Senator Akaka from Hawaii undermined his own bill last year when he made statements in National Public Radio that the sovereignty granted Native Hawaiians in the bill could eventually lead to secession.
That could be, said Senator Daniel Akaka.
As far as what's going to happen at the other end, I'm leaving it up to my grandchildren and great grandchildren, quote unquote.
Basically, Obama and Biden both voted for a caucus bill that opened the way for Hawaii to leave the Union.
And when this bill came up, we were all talking about this is going to potentially lead to secession.
And Obama and Biden both voted for it.
Now, this is a clear example of double.
Alaska hasn't done anything like this.
They haven't certainly had a member of the uh of their congressional delegation propose it.
But Daniel Akaka loved pronouncing that name.
Daniel Akaka from Hawaii not only proposed it, but it was uh it was debated and passed.
Both voted on by Obama or voted for by Obama and uh and Biden.
So what is this?
It's it's the double standard just reigns supreme.
And it's all out there.
But see, we don't live in a monopoly anymore, and the left cannot seem to get it through its head that we have researchers, and that we have an archive of the stupid, contradictory, hypocritical things they have said and how they voted.
So when they just, I mean, it's it's the rope of dope again, okay.
You want to go after Todd Palin for flirting with Alaskan secession?
Fine, Obama Biden voted for a bill that could lead to that very thing in Hawaii.
By the sponsor's own admission, Daniel Akaka.
Priscilla in uh North Pole, Alaska.
Hey, welcome to the EIB.
I'm hoping for Santa Claus to show up today.
Maybe you're it.
Thanks, Russ.
Uh, just want to thank you for all you do uh every day.
Um I'm not a longtime listener, but I've been listening since the Governor Palin story, and like to hear what you think.
But uh when I read the Oprah headline this morning, my thought was that she's in a big quandary right now.
Um, you know, her empire was built on Governor Palin's stories.
And uh, you know, my thought was that.
And by the way, wait, wait, wait, wait, what thing very important here.
Obama or uh Oprah's audience is predominantly white women who cry a lot.
Yeah.
And and here she shouldn't, you're right.
As a business proposition, she's got a huge quandary.
She is a businesswoman.
And she says that she doesn't turn her program over to as a forum to uh candidates.
She most certainly has.
She's done so now she's in a tank for uh the man child of Barry Obama.
And so her audience, you're you're exactly right, Priscilla.
Sarah Palin is exactly what Oprah's been telling her audience to go out and become.
Now she can't have Sarah Palin on.
I don't do candidates.
I don't candidates.
Look at I told you, you just gotta be faithful, confident in me here.
The left will eventually be ensnared by their own policies as long as there is a vibrant and willing opposition conservative movement to take it to them each and every day.
That's why we're here.
Brief timeout here at the top of the hour, ladies and gentlemen.
Open line Friday will continue after a brief obscene profit break.
