Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 Podcast.
Liberal drive by info babe mugged outside Washington Hotel this morning.
Is this the first step to her becoming a conservative?
Greetings, my friends, and welcome, Rush Limbaugh, the Excellence in Broadcasting Network.
And we are back at the EIB Southern Command.
We got out of there to nick a time.
I mean, there's a major snowstorm headed in there.
Perhaps six inches.
And of course, no snow removal because of budget cut back.
Now I'm just kidding.
That's Chicago, I forgot.
The Chicago no snow removal because of budget cuts.
Here's the phone number, folks.
If you want to be on the program, 800 282-2882, the email address, L Rushbo at EIBNet.com.
Mikab Zhezinski was headed to an interview with the Washington Mayor Adrian Fante this morning.
She's standing outside a hotel out there.
They have not named the hotel.
It's about six o'clock in the morning, and she got mugged.
A mugger approached her from across the street and demanded $20.
All she had, all she had, a liberal drive-by infobe.
All she had, ladies and gentlemen, was six measly dollars.
And she forked it over to the mugger.
And the mugger then went away.
Joe Scarborough gave the details of this story on his PMS NBC television program this morning.
She was waiting for a car to pick her up to take her to the 6 a.m. broadcast.
She was embarrassed by what happened and complained that the bell desk should have been paying attention.
The hotel should have had somebody outside there.
I don't know why they're not naming the hotel.
My guess is the reason that they're not naming the hotel is that NBC people stay there a lot, probably get a good rack rate, and they don't want to embarrass the hotel any more than uh than they are doing so here publicly.
But it will leak out.
Because people know where NBC stays in Washington, D.C. Now, ladies and gentlemen, you know, I have a unique take on most things that happen.
To me, the most interesting aspect of this is not what so many people are emailing me about, and that is will she now become conservative?
Because you know the old the old cliche is a conservative is a liberal who has been mugged.
And she got mugged.
She got held up for six bucks.
The mugger, though working cheap, accepted six bucks after demanding twenty.
What happened to Mekab Zhezinski makes the case for tax cuts.
She only she works in the drive-by media.
She works in television.
It's as though she's got nothing left after giving Bernie Madoff the money.
She only has six bucks to give man who is down on his luck.
We have to understand who muggers are.
Muggers are the salt of the earth.
They're the backbone of America.
They've just been placed in this current circumstance because of the evils of the Bush administration and uh supply side trickle down economics.
These are good people.
They have been forced into thuggery, muggery, and holdups in order to survive.
And what happened to Mekab Zhazinski is exactly why we need permanent across the board tax cuts.
If we cannot keep more of our own money, muggers are gonna have to work overtime.
This guy could have gotten everything he wanted from one victim, but because Mekab Zhushinski only had a measly six bucks, he had to probably go hold up a couple or three more people to make his take.
And that puts that many more people in danger, and of course it risks uh the mugger risks getting caught with each attempt here at fleecing somebody, he could end up in jail as well.
I mean, how did how how is it that a drive-by infobabe on the road doesn't have enough money to help out a fellow citizen who's down on his luck?
This country's better than that.
When we get held up, we should all we should have more than six bucks to give the muggers.
You know what the richer told?
The richer told walk around with a significant amount of cash is if you do get held up, uh, and you got a couple three hundred bucks, then your your your odds of surviving the mugging are greater than if you don't have anything.
So rich security personnel are advised, uh, the the rich are advised by their security personnel to carry significant amounts of cash.
How is it?
How are you how is it you're on the road and you've only got six bucks and you work in the drive-by media?
You work for NBC Universal.
The mugger was a worker, by the way, he's out working.
These are tough economic times.
He probably lost his job at an auto plant or some such thing.
Um maybe he used to work at Wall Street at a bank.
Uh, who knows?
Probably not paying his mortgage, still has his house, but he needs food.
And uh to collect a measly six bucks from a drive-by info, babe.
That embarrasses me as an American.
As somebody as accomplished and achieved as Mika Bzzinski only had six dollars on the can you imagine taking a road trip, folks, and only having six dollars.
Remember, this happened before six o'clock in the morning.
This mugger was up early.
This mugger was a worker.
He was up early working the streets.
Somebody might want to hire this guy.
This guy is loaded with initiative.
This guy obviously has ambition.
If Mika had a if she just had a measly $20 on her, she gives the mugger the money, and she can feel good about it.
Now she has to carry the shame of only having six dollars with her and shorting this hard-pressed working American 14 bucks.
This just proves to me, folks, we need a tax holiday.
This is what happens when the government hoards all of our money.
Muggers have to mug more people per day just to get by.
With tax cuts, if we had tax guts, Mika had 20 bucks, this guy would get his 20.
He didn't have to work again until after lunch.
But think about it.
The mugger had to take what amounts to a 70% pay cut because he had to settle for a pathetic six bucks because that's all Mika Brzezinski had.
And he's got to make that up by mugging more people.
It just isn't right.
These people are out of work because of circumstances beyond their control anyway, and now in their effort to keep up, they've got a mug even harder.
This is not the America I have grown up with.
Liberals are in charge, however.
Mika will get a tax increase, and muggers will have to work a little harder because people like Mika Brzezinski and future Marx will have less cash.
Well, she certainly she's going to be able to expense this, uh, Mr. Snerdley.
Uh the news story is the receipt.
I'm sure the mugger did not give her a receipt for the six dollars.
But this news story uh is effectively the the um see that's another thing.
I I I would I would I would be embarrassed to expense this.
If I were Mika Brzezinski to turn this in, I want six bucks here because I was mugged.
I that would embarrass me to say that's all I had.
Just it folks, we're it's not the same country.
Well, we all we all just have to admit this here.
I wonder what that you know, how are they gonna deal with this during the inauguration of the Messiah?
Oh, speaking of that, he has asked Rick Warren of the Saddleback Church out there to do the prayer.
And this poet, by the way, he is he has asked this poet, and I've done a little research into this poet, this poet is got a smut mind like you would not believe.
Oh, this poet, I mean, puts Eve Ensler and the vagina monologues.
It may as well be kindergarten to what this poet has written.
You know, we went with with Bill Clinton, we had Maya Anzelou, who uh did the viva Zirac in Zitzi uh and talked about uh dinosaur droppings.
Remember that?
Dinosaurs left dry pellets or some such thing?
And Clinton's in the back there with that WC Fields grin on his face and applauding.
I love that.
I love the fact I got dinosaur droppings we discussed here at my inauguration.
Wow.
Um I think uh what might need to happen here, you know, we're gonna have card check.
The Obama campaign uh owes the unions, and the unions are gonna try to unionize as many businesses and and occupations as possible.
And I think why not unionize muggers?
Why not unionize them?
And give them a guaranteed minimum.
If you get mugged, you know that the mugger is gonna be a Member of a union, what's the difference?
And that you have a minimum you have to carry around if you're in Washington, D.C., if you get hit by a unionized mugger.
He'd have his union card, maybe wear a little uh pin on the shirt or the cap to identify himself as a union mugger.
Anyway, uh, ladies and gentlemen, so United United Muggers of America, UMA.
At any rate, so Rick Warren's gonna do the prayer at uh at the Messiah's inauguration.
And of course, gay groups are livid.
They are they are just, I mean, they're climbing the walls because Rick Warren opposed, well, he was for prop eight, he was he's opposed to gay marriage, and uh gay groups feel totally let down by Barack Obama.
Again, I want to caution all of you extreme leftist groups like militant leftist gays, and all of you that are that are worried about Obama's cabinet like Bob Gates over at the Pentagon is gonna stay on.
Ray Lahood, a Republican from Illinois, has been named transportation secretary.
You guys are just calm down.
You just you this is a brilliant political stroke by Obama.
He knows that he embarrassed himself profoundly on the pro-life question with Rick Warren.
His is an attempt by Obama just as Clinton did it to make it look like he is not what he is.
He is not the radical extremist that we know he is.
This is all just public relations right now.
This is all just for show.
You leftists are gonna be happier than you know.
This is just it's like the education secretary's Arnie, what's his name?
I forget his name.
But by the way, who?
Arnie Duncan, yeah, the guy that ran the Chicago schools.
I said yesterday, he's a figurehead.
Everybody that has the guts to understand this knows full well that William Ayers is going to be discussing education policy with with uh Barack Obama.
And Arnie Duncan's just up there as a figurehead.
And there's a story out today today uh that that basically says that Arnie Duncan even got ties to the Annenberg Challenge, which is where Obama and William Ayers uh did their education work.
You're gonna get what you want.
You're gonna you're gonna get a massive stimulus package, you're gonna get massive growth of government, you're gonna get what you've just stopped complaining.
It is unbecoming of you leftists to be so panicked uh here.
You you're just pay attention to the substance and forget the PR.
You're gonna be cool.
Quick time out, back with more.
The controversy surrounding Caroline Kennedy continues to explode.
Upstate New York did not treat her kindly.
She went on a Hillary listening tour.
Uh and the people up there said, I don't, I don't we want to hear you.
What are your qualifications?
And I want to warn you people out there on the left, if you do this, if you put Caroline Kennedy in the Senate, with admittedly zip zero uh uh not uh qualifications and experience.
Then when 2012 comes around and Sarah Palin re-enters the national scene, this notion that she's unqualified ain't going to fly.
Back after this.
I'm looking at a website, the Weather Underground.
Weather Underground's a great, great, great website, by the way, and they've got a national map showing all of the severe weather warnings, snow, ice, and so forth.
It looks like we have entered the ice age everywhere in this country except here in Florida.
We're looking at 80s for the next three, four days down here.
But I mean, it's uh it's from Washington State all the way through the upper Midwest into the New England area, New York, and so it looks like an ice age.
And yet the ridiculousness of this global warming stuff continues to be discussed.
All this climate change, and in fact, all of this severe, and by the way, below normal winter pre-sipping temperatures is below it it's it's well above normal, the temps are uh the below normal, but this is this is this is not common for this time of year to have this kind of frigid freezing precipitation and temperatures over as much of the country as we do.
And of course, the drive-by media reports this.
Well, you know, this is just an illustration of how fast the uh the earth is warming.
It's just everything is upside down.
Everything's upside down.
It's ridiculous here That the global warming is being discussed.
I know Al Gore cannot be in all of these places at one time.
But wherever he goes, this happens.
When he's got a global warming seminar, this is what happens, but he can't be in all these places.
But he's got to be somewhere where this is happening.
All right.
Caroline Kennedy.
By the way, it's Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg, the drive-by media doing its best to leave off her married name and simply refer to her as Caroline Kennedy.
For example, yesterday, Syracuse, New York, she had this exchange with drive-by reporters.
Are you ready for this, Mrs. Kennedy?
You're not going to answer questions at all?
Mrs. Kennedy, you're avoiding questions, Mrs. Kennedy.
Ms. Kennedy are avoiding questions.
Following the process laid out by the governor.
Okay, I told you not to talk to us.
It wasn't pretty in upstate New York, the drive-by media not getting the memo.
Ladies and gentlemen, to be nice to Mrs. Schlossberg.
It's Mrs. Schlossberg.
How can that kind of accuracy be even tough for these people in the media?
She made a statement, by the way, in Buffalo, but declined to talk about her qualifications.
Well, I just wanted to say that as some of you may have heard, I've told Governor Patterson that I'd be honored to be considered for the position of United States Senator.
I wanted to come upstate and meet with uh Mayor Driscoll and others to uh tell them about my experience and also to uh learn more about how Washington can help you.
But you've never held public office, so what experience is that?
And there's a lot of good um people in this candidates that the governor's considering.
He's laid out a process, and um, and I'm proud to be in that process.
This is amazing.
These reporters are actually hitting her pretty hard.
They're calling her Mrs. Kennedy, which is erroneous, but they're really trumpeting the fact she's got no experience.
It doesn't matter.
All this is wired.
Uh big time unions in New York and Mayor Bloomberg have called Governor Patterson and pretty much said, hey, get this done and get it done as soon as you can.
This is what everybody wants.
And that's why she's not answering any questions, because it's probably a fate accomplished.
Uh eventually, uh in in Rochester, New York, she came up what uh with with some experience.
She had some experience that she wanted to share with people to let us know why she's qualified.
I have had a lifelong commitment to public service.
I've written books on the Constitution and the importance of individual participation, and I've raised my family, commitment to education in New York City, uh, training principals, working for kids, and and I think I really could help bring change to Washington.
What do you think?
Well, now Shazam, that sounds like somebody else that recently ran for high office.
So it sounds like Sarah Palin.
I mean, it's it it pales uh to Palin.
It pales in comparison, but well, I I've I've had a lifelong commitment to public service.
I've written books.
Uh I've I've raised my family.
I am committed to education in New York City.
Uh training principals, working for kids.
She's stealing Hillary's thunder.
Of course, Hillary can drop the working for kids now.
She's over at Foggy Bottom in the State Department.
Now, this morning on the Scarborough show, after the mugged, oh, by the way, by the way, people are saying in emails to me, what does she need money for?
Rush.
She works for NBC, everything's on an expense account.
They feed her.
They're probably food and coffee at the studio.
Uh she goes to the hotel, she can go to a hotel restaurant, sign it to the room, or get room services so forth.
What does she need cash for?
Folks, have you ever heard of tips?
But Rush, but Rush, she could put she could she could sign the tip on the on the receipt, charge into the room, not a bellman, not somebody helping her with her luggage, you know, not a doorman.
Look at my friends, I, El Rushbo, am not out of touch.
I'm telling you that when you live in New York and you travel to Washington on business for whatever, and you leave with six bucks.
Something wrong, especially when you've got a lot more.
There's something weird about this.
But as I say, and it it has it's it's a shame.
I think probably one of the she has a the highest tax rate possible.
I'm sure she earns a lot of money uh at PMS NBC.
She'd probably pay in the top marginal rate, plus she's got New York taxes.
Oh my gosh, or in well, I think she lives in New York, maybe New Jersey, but whatever.
Taxes in that region are as high as you'll find anywhere else.
So the Fed rate plus that, I'm sure she's at 50-55%.
And if she weren't paying so much in taxes, she probably would have more than six bucks to give a mugger.
So I said the whole thing's embarrassing.
But anyway, on the show that she works on, they talked today with uh Peggy Noonan and Democrat strategist Lawrence O'Donnell about Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg.
You know what's interesting, may I ask?
We don't know what Caroline Kennedy stands for, what her positions are, what her political philosophy is for the city.
She was born in the campaign.
I understand that, but she was born into a democratic family.
And she breathed it in.
She's part of that family.
No, you don't.
You don't know philosophically where she stands on taxes.
You barely know with Obama where he stands on taxes.
I'm talking about philosophy.
I think we do.
I'm talking about some serious stuff here.
What it is you've decided over time as you live that you stand for, and what are the reasons behind it?
What's the logic behind it?
What's interesting to me about Caroline Kennedy is that's all that may turn out to be surprising.
How she thinks.
Where have we heard this before, ladies?
I don't know what Barack Obama's worldview is.
No, I don't know how he really sees where China is.
We don't know a lot about Barack Obama and the universe of his thinking about foreign policy.
I don't really know.
And do we know anything about the people who are advising them?
You know, it's an interesting question.
He is principally known through his autobiography and through very aspirational speeches.
I don't know what books he's read.
What do we know about the heroes of Barack Obama?
There's a lot about him we don't know about.
Yeah, we don't know much about Carolina.
I can tell you about she's a liberal.
What else in the world could she be?
Southern California Mountains are snow covered, the same area that was destroyed.
Well, not destroyed, but scorched by wild fires in October.
Snow for the first time in 30 years in Las Vegas, shutting down the airport there.
Major winter snowstorm moving into the Northeast from the upper Midwest today.
Illustrating, of course, ladies and gentlemen, how quickly the earth is warming.
Joe Scarborough and uh Mika Bzinsky discussed her mugging today on Morning Joe, co-host Willie Geist.
Joe Scarborough, tell us what happened this morning.
Mika was waiting for the car.
I'm not gonna say what hotel she was staying at, and she got mugged this morning.
It's okay.
She is sitting outside of a hotel, and a guy comes up to her and says, Give me your money, and nothing will happen to you.
She had six dollars.
I had six dollars.
It was infuriating to me.
And he probably just needed the money.
I was a little nervous it wouldn't be enough.
He wanted twenty.
See, he just he just needed the money.
Mika understands poor out-of-work guy, probably brought on by Bush economics, Reaganomics, never know.
She feels bad too that she only had six bucks.
Poor mugger is gonna have to go out and work even harder.
She would have had more than six bucks if we had tax cuts.
And so then the the mayor of DC was the scheduled guest on their show today.
And Scarborough says, sitting outside a hotel door with a bell standing guy, walks across the street straight for her and mugs her.
And the mayor says this is what mayors do.
You know that stuff.
So we we're gonna look at it and work with the hotel and the police department.
Oh, Lord.
Mayor, it was six dollars.
It's okay.
Seriously.
Well, if she see she's got the right attitude about this.
It was just six dollars.
I'm sure she wishes that she had had the full twenty.
It isn't any big deal.
But for those of you who think that she's gonna head into um conservatism because of this, you can think again.
Russell in Vancouver, Washington.
Let's go to the phones and start with you, sir.
Great to have you on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hello, Rush.
Diddle's 20-year listener here.
Thank you.
Um I just wanted to suggest that maybe this man's not a mugger.
He's a wealth redistribution specialist.
And he is probably working under a community organizer in the first tier of the uh new administration's trickle up economic plan.
I like your thinking out there.
I can Tell that you are a 20-year veteran listener of this program.
We have rubbed off on you in profound ways.
This could, in fact, could well be a microcosm.
This is a sign of what's going to happen to all of us.
Shortly after January 20th next year, the mugger's just going to come disguised as somebody different, but we're all going to get mugged at some point.
This is just a little warning sign.
So you think community organizers practicing trickle up economics here.
He may just work for the IRS.
You never know.
Nah, I think the mugger's probably been laid off, and I think he's in dire economic circumstances, and this is why it's a shame that uh Mika Brzezinski only had six dollars.
You know, this Rod Blagoevich in uh in Illinois, the governor, this guy is a Piker.
I mean, what was he?
He was looking for play, he's looking for payoffs.
Pay for play, he called it.
He was looking for big bucks.
And while he's looking for payoffs, the Clintons got them.
The Clinton team has finally released some of the donors and the amounts for the Clinton Library and Massage Parlor.
And the 205,000 donors on this website.
The Clintons have ended ten years of resistance to identifying the sources of its money.
Saudi Arabia is among the biggest donors to the Clinton Foundation.
So it turns out that Blogo is a Piker.
If you're out there selling influence, don't look for a couple low-paying jobs for you and your wife and some low six-figure donations.
If you're out there looking to peddle influence, you got to go get tens of millions of dollars from international players, and then after you do that, you get yourself named Secretary of State so that the back scratching can continue.
You're even willing to take a pay cut from Senator to Secretary of State because there's a law out there.
The founding fathers, ladies and gentlemen, for those of you who voted for Obama, founding fathers are the people that wrote the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and built the United States of America.
You may not have been taught about the Founding Fathers in school, but that's that's what they did and who they are.
And they had a profound belief that government could be too intrusive and get too big very easily.
And so they wrote the Bill of Rights, the first ten amendments of the U.S. Constitution, which specifically spelled out limits against the government.
The Bill of Rights tells government what it cannot do to us.
And of course, Obama looks at the Bill of Rights as negative rights, and he doesn't like them.
And there's this new movement among the left to look at the Bill of Rights and say it limits government too much, and we got to do something about this.
These are these are negative rights.
It's not good because while it says what government can't do to people, it doesn't say what government must do for people.
Well, that was the idea of the founding.
The government was supposed to do for anybody other than provide for the national defense and a couple other big ticket items like that, but now it's just it's that that's been swept under the rug, and the whole notion here is, you know, not ask not what your country can do for you, demand it.
Demand what your country can do for you.
So here we have Blogoyovich running around looking for all of these small fry donations from punks like Jesse Jackson Jr.
Instead, the Clintons are showing everybody how this is done, get tens of millions of dollars from international players and then become Secretary of State.
And you might say, how can she become Secretary of State because she was in the well, no, you might not say this.
Some of you in the audience, because some of you may not know that this law existed, but the uh the framers way back in the early days said that if, for example, you're in the Senate, you could not take a job somewhere else in public service in the Federal Union.
You couldn't go to Secretary of State if, while you're serving in the Senate, the salary for Secretary of State had been raised because you in the Senate vote us.
You couldn't vote yourself a pay raise.
Imagine that.
That was part of the fact you could not vote yourself pay raise.
So Mrs. Clinton was in violation of that law because she authorized, as many other senators did, a pay raise for the Secretary of State while she was in the Senate.
And so Mrs. Clinton said, I'll fix that.
I'll fix that.
I'll take a pay cut.
I will not take the raise.
I will not accept what the Secretary of State is at present making.
And why should she?
205,000 donors to the Clinton Foundation, number one Saudi Arabia.
She's gonna go over to Sex State, and she's gonna be able to continue to scratch the backs of people who have donated to the Clinton Foundation.
Ladies and gentlemen, the news is filled with corruption that is now being institutionalized.
When many of these donations came into the Clinton Foundation, the donors were investing in the Clintons.
That's how in part it was sold.
We're the ex-president and first lady.
We have context.
We can get done anything you need to do.
Invest in us.
And remember now, at the time they're out there soliciting donations for the Clinton Library Massage Parlor and Foundation.
At that time, Hillary was supposed to be the next president.
So when you donated to the Clinton Foundation, you were buying favor with who everybody thought was going to be the next president of the United States.
The Clinton prid uh quid pro quo market fell apart when Obama won.
But by putting Hillary back in as Secretary of State, the Clintons are once again a good investment.
And here poor old Blogoyovich in Illinois was scratching his head saying, how the hell this happened to me?
I'm a Piker compared to these guys.
These guys are heralded.
The Clintons are loved and they're celebrated, and everybody thinks they're the greatest politicians come down the pike, and everybody thinks I'm a thief.
When it's all said and done, ladies and gentlemen, the Clintons will make tens of millions of dollars from the foundation and personally during Hillary's tenure as Secretary of State.
The money machine just got ginned up again.
Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg will shore up the financial picture of her family.
You know, there's a lot of Kennedys dipping into the Kennedy fortune these days.
A lot of Kennedys that don't work.
So you need to do something here to make the Kennedys again something to invest in.
Blogo, if he would just get out of the way in Illinois, the crooks can get back to doing business the way they're used to doing it.
And Biden will get his son in as his replacement as a senator in Delaware, and the beat goes on.
So it's politics as usual.
It's uh members of the political class, the Washingtonians, getting rich and trading on their public service.
Most of the people doing this are big-time liberal Democrats.
Nobody smells anything odd about it.
Nobody says a peep about it, except when Bloggoevich comes along and clumsily explo uh exposes how the whole thing operates.
We now know, and we've known for a long time why they want to get rid of Blogo.
Blogo's an embarrassment.
Democrats don't turn on Democrats unless they threaten to expose the whole game.
And Blogo in his ineptitude here, uh, you know, six hundred grand, five hundred grand to sell a Senate seat working with Jesse Jackson.
What the this is embarrassing.
This is chump change to what the Clintons and the Kennedys have going on.
And Blogo has to go.
So as soon as he gets out of the way, as soon as they figure out a way to do, and it's just whatever his price is, they're gonna have to meet it because he's in it for that.
And uh, and and then we can get back to the normal culture of corruption that goes on beneath the surface that nobody sees, and everybody apparently seems to love because it's Democrats who care about people who are engaging in it.
One thing this isn't hope and change.
What this is is bolstering a culture of corruption and an insider's game that has nothing to do with putting taxpayers in the country first.
We stay with the phones, Detroit.
And Robert, great to have you, sir, on the Excellence and Broadcasting Network.
Hello.
Rush, how you doing?
Thank you, Macaulay.
Great, thank.
Couldn't be better.
Uh you know, I used to get uh real upset, you know, when I listened to you.
You know, but really much not anymore now.
Uh I was wanted to say that uh that I'm uh I'm definitely happy with the turnout of the election, but you know, all the stuff that you say, you know, clearly basically said one thing that you are extremely disgusted that the president has brown skin.
Now, one in the world, how we're in the world do you accuse me of saying that?
You know for a that is not true, right?
It has nothing.
It has nothing to do with anything.
I did not say that.
You said you were disgusted.
I mean, the things that you're saying.
I mean, you don't have to directly say it, but all of these accusations, you are just completely rail uh giving the man all kinds of bad lip, and he hasn't even been uh inaugurated yet.
It's like you're trying to tank this complete historical thing that's going on here with a whole lot of well, if he talked to this person or if his administration, it's a lot of if, and well, probably nothing has really been proven.
You know, Robert, I think you're misreading here.
You're you're you maybe you may be calling the uh the wrong show.
We're we're we're doing nothing but having a lot of fun here.
Uh is what's going on.
Well, yeah, I mean, I'm I'm uh I am I do find a lot of humor here, but Robert, please grow up.
It has nothing to do with the color of the Messiah's skin.
Oh, it absolutely does.
I want to ask you another thing, right?
Rush Rush.
Um I used to say to myself and people I knew, I'll say, well, Russia's show is going to turn into a comedy show after the election.
Because after the election, I mean, you didn't play around with these little ridiculous kind of joking things.
You try pretty much, you were pretty much on the issue.
You tried and tried and tried everything to get McCain to win.
Now, if you don't care about McCain whatsoever, I know that you don't.
It's just that you know what I find fancy.
You wouldn't have cared.
Let me tell you something, Robert Harman.
I am listening to the city.
You wouldn't have cared that was Pee Wee Herman.
I'm listening to every syllable you're uttering.
And between the two of us, the one who sounds mad is you.
You send man at mad as hell here.
And you're accusing me of saying things and doing things I haven't said or done.
I'm having a great old time.
I'm jocular as I can be.
You make me out to be some kind of sore loser.
You're a sore winner.
I haven't heard the last time a sore loser spends so much time laughing as I've been laughing.
I'm loving this.
You know, you this country gets what it deserves.
Elections matter, they have consequences.
And hang on, Robert, because the ride that you are headed for is going to be a giant stunner to you, regardless of the color of skin of anybody that's happening uh uh or serving uh in Washington.
I'm glad you called and um give me a chance here to.
I in fact, there's a lot of anger on the left.
These people that are mad at Rick Warren or mad at Obama for Rick Warren.
I mean, the left is perpetually enraged, and they can't get up and live without being mad.
And Robert, you you sound like you're almost ready for a straitjacket out there, you're so mad.
And you're mad at me.
And I can't raise your taxes, and I can't send you off to war, and I can't do things economically gonna course your force your company to fire you.
You're mad at the wrong guy, John in Buffalo.
This is a television reporter from upstate New York.
John High, welcome to the EIB network.
Thanks, Rush.
First time caller.
I won't take too much of your time.
I just want to give you an interesting report.
Uh Miss Kennedy slash Schlossberg was in Buffalo yesterday to visit with our mayor.
Yes.
Our City Hall is a huge art deco era building that sits in the heart of downtown on a park-like traffic circle.
Well, I'm sure it's probably the biggest building around.
Yeah.
Uh traffic was restricted around the circle.
All of a sudden, no parking was allowed anywhere around City Hall.
You would have thought we had visiting royalty.
You did.
So I don't know that we even needed to hear about Mayor Bloomberg and the unions.
I I think just evidenced by yesterday here in Buffalo, it's a done deal.
Yeah.
Um, I the fact that you're even questioning this is uh suspect.
Yeah.
So I just wanted to give you that report.
Well, did you have a chance as a TV reporter yourself to uh talk to Mrs. Schlossburg?
Oh no.
Oh, that's the best part.
Uh complete blackout on the press.
Nobody allowed.
Well, we did have we had some audio uh the soundbites of some reporters talking to her.
Well, they must have caught her outside because they were not allowed to talk to her inside City Hall.
Well, it wasn't pretty.
In fact, here, let me uh let me what is it?
What the put them back in the stack?
I want you to listen to one of them where the drive-by's are just really hammering her over having no qualifications.
Number 11.
Here, you uh Yeah, and this this in Syracuse, By the way.
Yeah, I didn't think it was here.
Yeah, here's here's Syracuse.
This is what happened.
Are you ready for this, Mrs. Kennedy?
You're not going to answer questions at all?
Mrs. Kennedy, you're avoiding questions, Mrs. Kennedy.
Ms. Kennedy, you're avoiding questions.
Following the process laid out by the governor.
Now that doesn't sound all that impressive.
And the reporter.
What is what is it with reporters in Syracuse?
Did they not get the memo here that she is royalty?
You don't diss Democrats like this.
Certainly not Kennedy.
That must be the case.
That just must be the case.
Now they're they were totally ignorant of that fact.
I want uh Mike grab some by twelve.
This is what we have a partial of Mrs. Schlossberg while in Buffalo, and I want to know if if this was said inside while you were there.
Well, I just wanted to say that um, as some of you may have heard, I've told Governor Patterson that I'd be honored to be considered uh for the position of United States Senator.
I wanted to come upstate and meet with uh Mayor Driscoll and others to to uh tell them about my experience and also to uh learn more about how Washington could help.
But you've never held public office, so what experience is that's how we got time problem.
Were you there, John?
For no, no, I was not.
I'm not I wasn't aware of that.
All right.
Well, we're happy to inform you, and and uh it's it's it's it's the sk the skids are grease, the grease are skids.
It's see Kennedy, it's gonna happen, it doesn't.
And I'm looking at the most confusing thing.
Fox is doing a story claiming that somebody's calling for the United States to modernize its nuclear missile program.
And I I thought we were getting rid of that.
