Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of The Rush 24-7 Podcast.
And now you know, ladies and gentlemen, now you know why President Obama does not want you or anybody else listening to me.
The story that we had on the stealth health care reforms in the stimulus bill.
We did it at two o'clock afternoon, hour yesterday afternoon, has now become mainstream news.
It's all over the place.
Even Senator Spector didn't know that it was in there, and he was questioned vigorously this morning about it.
On the Fox News Channel, great to have you here, Rush Limbaugh in action at the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
Here's the telephone number if you want to join us today.
800 282-2882, and the email address is L Rushbo at EIBNet.com.
Well, we're going to get to Obama's presser last night in mere moments.
But believe it or not, I have something that takes precedence over that.
It's a shocker.
It is a stunner.
Uh and it explains a lot.
And you remember Mr. Snerdley.
And the rest of you.
I was speculating.
I was asking an open-ended question last fall.
How the hell did this economic collapse happen at just the right time to effect an election?
We may now have the answer.
In part.
I'll get to that in just a moment.
In the meantime, this press conference last night, ladies and gentlemen, the drive-bys are all over the place talking about how wonderful it is, how great Obama's mind is, if It was a bomb.
It was a bomb of a press conference.
He starts out with a teleprompter.
He never once looked at the American people straight into the camera.
He does his usual gaze over everybody, head turning left and right.
And then he goes and it was a campaign speech.
Then he goes to the questions, and you could you could tell the difference between Obama on a prompter and Obama impromptu.
It was uh it was it was stunning.
Uh and uh one the so many funny parts of this thing last the whole thing to me was hilarious.
I thought I was listening to Fidel Castro.
He went on for 13 minutes answering the first question and never answered it.
In the first half hour, he must have taken two or three questions.
He never answered any of the questions.
He just gave a um uh it was the White House lecture series.
They ought to put put this on DVD and start running it on PBS.
Then we got Geitner.
Oh, this is one of the funny parts of the press conference last night.
Funny parts of the press conference last night, uh Obama gets a question about what Geitner's gonna say today regarding uh the the big bail, and by the way, is that going over good?
The uh Dow Jones Industrial Average is down 277 to 288.
Uh sure, I mean it was down earlier, but before Geithner spoke, but now after Geitner has spoken, I mean it is just plunging out there.
Not a whole lot of confidence.
See, the real problem here, folks, is that Obama can con the base and the drive-bys.
Geitner has to go out there and con the business community and the investor class, and he's not doing a good job of conning the investor class, the business class.
The investor class, the business class is way ahead of the public in understanding what's going on here.
Uh, and it's being uh it's being illustrated here in the market plunge that uh that is happening today.
And I was watching this last night.
He gets his question about the Geithner plan.
He says, Well, I you know, I don't know, I don't want to step on the toes of the Treasury Secretary.
I uh I'll uh I'll let the Treasury Secretary what do you mean step on the toes of the Treasury say you're the President of the United States, he works for you.
What Obama really says I have no idea what this plan, I don't know what he's gonna say tomorrow.
I'm not been involved in writing this.
I'm gonna have to defer to what Geitner says.
He doesn't know what's in the stimulus bill.
He deferred totally to Pelosi and Reed to write it.
He has no clue what's in it.
All he cares about is that there's spending in it.
That's the Obama economic plan.
Just keep spending.
Now, this health care thing, back to this yesterday.
No, I still haven't gotten to the uh to the uh uh the oh, what's the word for this?
This is this is major.
I haven't gotten to it yet.
You could say that I am teasing you.
Yes, I am I'm gonna continue to tease because I gotta I, you know, I I've got to point out the reason Obama does not want you listening to me is this health care thing that we uncovered yesterday, Betsy McCoy writing at Bloomberg.
Uh I found it.
I detailed it for you, and now it's all over mainstream media.
Well, it's it it were headline drudge for a while uh last night and today.
Fox News is talking about it.
Some of these senators are being asked about it.
They didn't know that it was in there.
We will get to the details of that again shortly.
Here is I want you to listen to this.
Paul Kanjorski.
He's a Democrat member of Congress in Pennsylvania.
He was on C SPAN's Washington Journal on January 27th.
On Thursday at about eleven o'clock in the morning.
Stop the tape a second.
Go back and re-cue this.
And he's talking about September the 18th here.
Let me tease you even further.
September the eighteenth is the day last year that the world economy almost came to an end.
Don't smirk, it's true, snurdly.
That's what Konjorski is saying.
So he's talking here about Thursday, September the 18th.
On Thursday at about 11 o'clock in the morning, the Federal Reserve noticed a tremendous drawdown of money market accounts in the United States to the tune of $550 billion with being drawn out in a matter of an hour or two.
The Treasury opened up its window to help.
They pumped 105 billion dollars in the system and quickly realized that they could not stem the tide.
We were having an electronic run on the banks.
They decided to close the operation, close down the money accounts, and announce a guarantee of $250,000 per account so there wouldn't be further panic out there.
Do you remember this?
This is the day I think that the Atlanta banks ran out of $100 bills.
But now stop and think of this.
A $550 billion withdrawal from money market funds in one to two hours.
I am convinced, and there's one more soundbite to go here.
I am convinced that this is what they took to the White House and said to President Bush, we have got a disaster.
You have got to get on board with a bailout which came later on in October.
You've got to get on board with the 700 to TARP one, uh, all because 550.
Now what precipitated this?
Here's the second Kandorsky soundbite.
If they had not done that, their estimation was that by two o'clock that afternoon, five and a half trillion dollars would have been drawn out of the money market system of the United States, would have collapsed the entire economy of the United States, and within 24 hours the world economy would have collapsed.
It would have been the end of our economic system and our political system as we know it.
We're really no better off today than we were three months ago because we've had a decrease in the equity positions of bank because other assets are going sour by the moment.
Now, this is January 27th.
Uh Kandorsky's talking about this, and we have to allow, since Kandorsky is a Democrat, he's part of the Pelosi team.
We have to allow that some of his comment here is being flavored when he when he ends up by saying we're no better off today than we were three months ago.
Some of this is obviously oriented toward panic and getting people to go along with the bailout today.
But let's leave that aside because that's traditional Democrat power party politics.
If they had not done that, if that $550 billion withdrawal in an hour or two had not been stopped, if they hadn't closed the windows, he says that five and a half trillion would have been drawn out of the money market system of the U.S. Now when I hear money market, you know, I think of uh uh savings accounts, a little higher interest rates than uh passbook savings at the old downtown building alone, uh, where people park their money temporarily till they decide where to put it permanently.
He says five and a half trillion would have would have uh vanished from the banking system, would have collapsed the entire economy of the U.S. And within 24 hours the world economy would have collapsed.
Now we got to allow here for some exaggeration.
It's amazing.
This was set on C SPAN on Thursday, September, the or on January 27th, and nobody picked up on a website of it.
We got it from a uh a website called Live Leak.
Uh they were rummaging through things and they found this.
Now let's assume for a second here that elements of this are true.
Let's assume that there was a $550 billion run, electronic run, on the banks, uh money market accounts in one to two hours.
The question is, who was doing this?
Who was withdrawing all this money?
And the next question is why?
And that's where my mind starts exploding.
And this is dangerous to have these explosions going this way.
Could it have been George Soros?
Could it have been a consortium of countries?
Russia, China, Venezuela, countries that are eager to have Barack Obama elected, because they know that will make it easier for them to continue their own foreign policies in the world.
In the meantime, five and a half billion dollars in one to two hours, that can probably be confirmed.
The five and a half trillion is speculation based on the rate at which money was coming out.
We could check that the Fed stopped the trading windows.
They closed the window that we know we do know they were pumping money into the system left and right.
And remember when the Federal Reserve loaned elements two trillion dollars and we weren't told who got the money?
And we still haven't been told who got the money.
We know that last fall, the Federal Reserve lent two trillion dollars to somebody or a series of somebody's, and we still don't know where it went.
We know last year that we had a crisis on our hands, and everybody was saying if we didn't do this today, the country was finished.
And they got Bush on board, they got Paulson on board.
Obviously, this kind of new is if if somebody from the Fed shows up, if Bernanke and Paulson show up and say, hey, we we got a chance here to losing five and a half trillion dollars if we don't do something.
I mean, that's got to scare anybody into some sort of uh action to stem the tide.
Fox just ran a piece, by the way, at the at the top of the hour when his program began, chronicling the history of the bailouts.
A year ago, roughly a year ago, the original bailout proposal uh or or stimulus package, fifty-six billion dollars in both the House and the Senate.
By October of last year, it had grown to two hundred billion.
Now we are at a trillion on the stimulus plan, the porculus bill, and now with Geitner out there today trying to con the business community and the investor class, and he failed royally doing that.
Well, that's his job.
It was right out there.
He's out there to come.
Obama can con the base, he can con Democrats, he can con the media.
He can't con me, and he can't con you, but he can con all these acolytes, these brain-dead supporters of his and these stupid fools in the media to whom he cannot fail.
But Geitner, Geithner sounded like the dog ate my homework today when he went out there and made his speech.
He is a little bit uh like that and a little bit of an authoritarian, and he said, by the way, getting federal money is not a right, it's a privilege.
And by the way, he's we are not shoring up the banks to help the banks.
We are shoring up the banks to help you so that the banks will loan money to you so that you will then borrow money.
And I think what their ultimate plan here is, their ultimate plan is to get the they're botching it.
I mean, I don't think they know what they're doing here because there's a simple way to accomplish what they want, because at the end of the day, what are these people want to do?
They want to raise taxes.
And they can't raise taxes right now.
They just can't.
They can put all kinds of stealth stuff in their stimulus like this abomination.
They've got nationalized health care in the stimulus bill, folks, which we shared with you yesterday and has now become mainstream, which again is why Obama doesn't want you listening to me.
What they obviously want is for people to start investing.
They want the banks to start lending, they want people to be able, they want to raise our taxes.
They want people to start generating some income out there so that so that uh they can raise taxes.
Geitner even said today we are not gonna put out the the uh the details of our plan until we get it right.
So he gave an overview today.
This is a con job.
And of course, the people on Wall Street and in the markets are not being conned.
They're flirting here with being down three hundred uh on the Dow Jones Industrial Average.
Dirty little secret.
Obama doesn't mind this at all.
Here's a guy last night in his press conference talking about a catastrophe.
Here's a guy talking about it could get worse.
It's gonna get worse even if we pass this.
He's out there lying.
In fact, the New York Times today has vindicated your host, your lovable and trusted commentator, L. Rushbow, by pointing out that I was right, don't use my name, of course.
Well, we are nowhere near economic conditions as they existed in the Great Depression.
We're not even as bad as they were in 1981 and 1982.
And the New York Times points it out here today.
I don't know that CNN will take notice of it or any others in the uh in the drive-by.
So we have a lot to do today.
I have set to table.
We'll take a break now and come back after our first obscene profit timeout and get started with all the detail.
We do not present broad outlines on the EIB network.
We do detail after detail after detail, so that when we're through, you have no questions.
All you have are answers.
We have an AP Obama story here that uh targets the date of this run on money market accounts to September 16th.
It was Kand Jorsky on C-SPAN on um on January 27th who said it was Thursday the eighteenth.
Here's the AP story.
A money market mutual fund that broke the buck amid a rush of orders to pull out cash has begun returning an initial twenty-six billion dollars to investors who had been unable to access their money for more than a month.
On September 16th, a rapid sell-off of assets caused the value of fund assets to fall to 97 cents for every investor dollar put in.
That's the first instance in 14 years of a money market mutual fund breaking the buck or having its per share value fall below one dollar.
Reserve management froze redemption orders.
That led institutional investors.
I think can't I think both dates are right.
September 16th, the rapid sell-off begins, uh, and that led institutional investors to pull out cash from the fund, creating fears about the safety of the $3.4 trillion in assets held in money market funds and uh a new temporary government money fund guarantee programs.
Sort of just a casual hate, no big deal kind of story from the Associated Press.
And here again is Ken Jorsky talking about this.
Let's go back to these two sound bites.
Uh Paul Kandjorsky, Democrat, Pennsylvania, on C-SPAN's Washington Journal on January 27th.
On Thursday at about 11 o'clock in the morning, the Federal Reserve noticed a tremendous drawdown of money market accounts in the United States to the tune of $150 billion was being drawn out in a matter of an hour or two.
The Treasury opened up its window to help.
They pumped $105 billion in the system and quickly realized that they could not stem the tide.
We were having an electronic run on the banks.
They decided to close the operation, close down the money accounts, and announce a guarantee of $250,000 per account so there wouldn't be further panic out there.
Now he was uh, by the way, should tell you that Kand Jorsky's source for this uh is none other than uh uh Bernanke, Ben Bernanke, the Federal Reserve, and the Treasury Secretary Hank Polson.
They are the two figures that told members of Congress what was going on with this initial run of 550 and electronic run of the banks, money market accounts, uh in in uh investor accounts here, and then they were he goes on to say this that if they had not stepped in to stop this, if they had not closed the window.
If they had not done that, their estimation was that by two o'clock that afternoon, five and a half trillion dollars would have been drawn out of the money market system of the United States, would have collapsed the entire economy of the United States, and within 24 hours the world economy would have Collapsed.
It would have been the end of our economic system and our political system as we know it.
We're really no better off today than we were three months ago because we've had a decrease in the equity positions of bank because other assets are going sour by the moment.
So through the last part, I think that's just salesmanship for doing something now to get uh the stimulus bill passed.
Although Kandorski is among some Democrats starting to shift to the camp that more time is needed to make a correct decision this time, uh, which I think is one of the reasons Geitner proposed uh uh postponed his announcement to today from last week or even today.
So, you know, I I have been suspicious of all this that happened last fall.
It just seemed so too perfectly timed.
Now we know that these these are not individual money market accounts like you would have had to withdraw your money.
This is money invested in a money in a mutual fund money market account.
Uh so it is it is quite possible somebody could have started a run on this thing and the word spread, and it did, and the $550 billion withdrawal in one hour would panic anybody.
So it's this this there's so much to this, you know, it's always the case that there's so much more going on in all this than we don't know.
The drive-by media any longer is worthless in ferreting out the truth involved in events.
They are they totally exist on the surface.
They exist with a path of least resistance, particularly with Democrats in power, because the presumption that Democrats could uh abuse power or commit ethics violations just doesn't even cross the radar.
Doesn't even show up in the radar.
It's not possible for Democrats to behave in that in that fashion.
And so all this stuff goes on below the surface, and we find out about it much later after the fact.
Barack Obama is in Fort Myers doing a town meeting for the second day in a row at the same time.
A program hosted by the man he doesn't want anybody listening to is also on the air.
And uh I I listened to a little bit of it during the uh during the break.
The people in Fort Myers, Florida are obviously far more jazz than the people in Elkart, Indiana were yesterday.
In Elkart, the town meeting yesterday seemed like a funeral today.
This seems like a church service down there.
I mean, I Obama will say something, hey, we've got to stop the bickering in Washington.
Hey Member, amen!
All this amen does not get church service done.
We're gonna we can't deep do the same old A member, hey member, and uh people have people don't want handouts on their work hard for hey member, amen, amen.
Not a whole lot of amens, but just they're scattered from around the crowd.
Now Obama's uh taking questions and answers.
The Senate is getting ready to vote soon on their version of the pork bill, which also contains nationalized health care.
The stimulus pork bill being voted on in the Senate contains the nationalization of health care, the computerization of everybody's health records, rationing of medical care for seasoned citizens.
If you're a seasoned citizen and you go to the doctor, you have an ailment of some kind, the doctor will do a test.
The doctor will then consult your medical records.
The doctor will then consult federal guidelines to find out if you are to be treated.
And if the cost of your treatment as a seasoned citizen is deemed by the government to be too expensive based on how much longer you have to live, then you don't get treated.
The architect of this is one Tom Dashel, and he says, much like Governor Dick Lamb of Colorado, old people got to come to grips with your circumstances.
You gotta come to grips with your diagnosis.
Understand, we're all gonna die sometime, and it's your turn.
And this is in the Senate stimulus bill.
I want to know what happened to the saucer.
I have a very simple question.
What happened to the saucer?
I remember the first time I interviewed Mitch McConnell on this program, the Republican leader in the Senate.
He described to me that the Senate is the saucer underneath the hot, perhaps even boiling, cup of coffee or water.
The House of Representatives is the scalding hot liquid inside the cup.
And the houses moving at break nakes, breakneck speed, the houses doing this and doing that, and the Senate is where the whole thing slows down.
The saucer is where all of the heated liquid, coffee, water, whatever it is, in the cup overflows and it cools in the saucer.
The Senate thus slows things down to apply a reason, theoretically, and uh deliberation to the overheated and uh out of whack speed with which things occur in the House.
Well, that I've heard that description by more than just Senator McConnell.
The obvious question today is where is the saucer?
Both bodies are proceeding at breakneck speed on purpose.
The Democrats are running the show in both the House and the Senate.
They want this done, and I'll tell you why they want it done.
They want it done so that fewer discoveries take place as to what's really in this.
You can be guaranteed that most members of the House and Senate have not read every page or even close to every page in their respective pieces of legislation.
They're just ramming this through because the Obama economic plan is spending.
Spending, spending it doesn't matter on what.
Just get the government involved in as many things as possible.
Let me find something in the stack.
I've got to find this, ladies and gentlemen, is a classic illustration of what is wrong with uh with with it involves General Motors, and it puts the lie to this whole notion that the stimulus bill is about creating jobs.
This is a Reuters story.
General Motors said today that it will cut its global salaried workforce by about 10,000 or 14% this year, and it will impose pay cuts on most remaining white-collar U.S. workers as it scrambles to slash costs under a restructuring mandated by the U.S. government bailout.
Now, wait a minute.
Wait a damn minute.
I thought the government was trying to stimulate the economy.
I thought Obama and his bunch were trying to create jobs.
Yet here we have General Motors slashing jobs to live up to government mandates.
You see, my friends, this is what happens when the government can't even run their own damn dining room in the Senate, tries to manage the economy.
They're now this this this uh what's being done to Wall Street with this populism and all this this business of uh limiting executive pay.
The amount of revenue generated via taxes is going to plunge.
But that shouldn't surprise anybody but liberals.
They don't care about the revenue generation of taxes.
Rush, how can you say that?
Well, because every instance from JFK to Ronaldus Magnus to George W. Bush cutting taxes increased revenue to the treasury.
And they fight it.
They're opposed to it.
They don't care about revenue, as they're demonstrating to us now they'll be happy to print the money.
When they're in charge, they'll be happy to run deficits.
It's about power.
It is about control.
It is about taking over as much of your life and America's private sector as possible.
Obama was asked last night by Jake Tapper, hey, President Obama, what are your measures for success here?
And not one answer.
Not one element of his answer.
Did he talk about revenue generation?
Because they don't care about.
In fact, when tax cuts raise revenue.
Democrats move into fast action to revise history and talk about how just the exact opposite happened.
They want to call these tax cuts the creators of these large deficits.
That's another thing.
Obama, I inherited, I inherited, I inherited, oh, woe is me.
I didn't want this to be the first thing I had to do in my presidency.
Oh, woe is me.
But he voted for every damn thing that led to all this.
So General Motors is going to can 10,000 people, 14%, white collar people.
A lot of Americans will applaud.
The unions will applaud.
Liberal Democrats will applaud about time the white-collar people.
There is an all-out war on achievement in this country.
Be it on Wall Street, be it in the executive suite in the Heartland.
And it's being conducted by Barack Obama and the Democrat Party.
An all-out war on achievement.
The achievers are to be punished, and they are to learn that they are never to achieve again.
There will be penalties.
There will be harsh criticism.
There will be demonstrations outside your house.
Yes, my friends, the big CEOs of some of the Wall Street banks are being protested in the lobbies of their buildings and on their front yards where they live.
There has been a creation of hatred.
And it has been building for decades.
It's coming to a fore now.
As the Barack Obama administration focuses genuine hatred on the achiever class, and I don't just mean Wall Street.
If you have a small business and you achieve and you've got a couple cars and a nice house in this economic climate, you're a target, my friend.
You are a target.
You are not playing by the rules.
It's unfair.
It's not right.
You are to be gotten even with.
So here's Obama out of one side of his mouth.
I want to create jobs.
I want people back working.
I want people to be able to own their houses.
And yet the very mandates that go along with General Motors bailout is forcing a $10,000 employee cut.
As GM scrambles to cut costs under a restructuring mandated by U.S. government bailout.
So the U.S. government, in the under the guise of saving General Motors, is causing 10,000 jobs to be lost, while Obama flapping his gums down in Fort Myers, Florida, talking to the great unwashed about how all he wants to do is get their jobs back.
I don't know.
Never be able to prove it, but I hope that there are some dingleberries out there who actually believe that by now their job would be back and Obama would be buying their gasoline.
I hope they're starting to wonder where the hell that is.
I hope there are some Obama supporters starting to wonder, hey, where's my job?
Hey, where's my mortgage?
Hey, where's my gasoline money?
The longer this goes with people staying impoverished, the more people are going to begin to wonder where the hell is he not going to be able to get away with blaming all this on George Bush.
The media is going to help him do this.
Make no mistake about it.
Here's more from General Motors.
In the struggling automakers home market, about 3,400 of 29,500 white-collar jobs will be cut.
This will no doubt trigger more home foreclosures.
People lose their jobs.
Talking white-collar people, unemployment benefits are not enough to pay the mortgage.
Most jobs will be cut by May 1st.
Most remaining U.S. staff will see pay cuts of between three and 10% for the year.
The job and pay cuts are the latest step General Motors is taking to pair its operations ahead of a deadline to present a restructuring plan to the U.S. government on February 17th.
Notice.
Notice who is not losing their jobs.
Union people.
United Auto Workers are not losing their jobs, and this is part of the scheme as well.
There is an all-out war on achievement in this country, and it has been mandated in a bailout of big three automakers by the Obama administration.
General Motors has also offered buyouts to its U.S. workers represented by the United Auto Workers Union.
You see, behind every economic catastrophe, you will find a powerful union.
Wait till you hear that in California, they're suing each other over furloughing state employees.
Of course, don't misunderstand you union people.
We support the workers.
We love workers.
I am I am the most supportive person in the world of work.
I just don't support the unions.
But I support workers.
Just like I support the president.
I just don't support his policies.
General Motors also said that uh executive pay would be cut by 10% for the rest of the year.
Salaried workers in the U.S. whose jobs are eliminated will be eligible for severance pay and some benefit assistance.
General Motors had suspended some benefits for salaried workers in November.
The non-union people uh had they tried that with the unions, all hell would have broken loose.
So there you have it.
There you have it.
General Motors laying off all kinds of people, firing all kinds of people, cutting back uh salaries.
All to be in compliance with a federal mandate from an administration that claims its number one objective is getting people their jobs back.
And welcome back.
It's L. Rushbo serving humanity, executing assigned host duties flawlessly.
In the stimulus bill, the pork goodness bill which has passed the Senate 67 to 31.
It was a slam dunk.
And now it goes to the uh to the conference report.
Where hopefully somebody will be able to slow this down and stop this insanity.
In this Senate bill, there is the nationalization of American health care.
There is a new uh bureaucracy created, the national coordinator.
National coordinator of health information technology, which will monitor treatments to make sure that your doctor is doing what the federal government deems appropriate and cost effective regarding your treatment.
It's gonna be just like the UK.
You go to the doctor, your doctor's gonna have to consult either a book, a computer program, or maybe even make a phone call to find out what kind of treatment you can get and how much to charge for it based on how much the government's going to reimburse him for it.
As such, the author of this plan, by the way, is uh former senator from North Dakota or South Dakota, I'm not sure which one I get him confused, Tom Dashell, who asks for airtime for this message.
It's in the Senate bill.
The National Coordinator of Health Information Technology.
Jim in Manassas, Virginia.
Welcome, sir.
You're up first today on the EIB network.
Russia, you're you're a great guy.
Just one uh point out the uh cut you air uh had the congressman saying we're no better off than 90 days ago.
Well, that coincides with Chuck Schumer and his release of the report that led to the Indy Bank or Indy Mac Bank's collapse.
And the then began the run on numerous banks that uh started all of this.
Well that was back in July.
Schumer Well, no, it was 26 June.
Okay, well, June or July, but I did it it's it happened, it predates what happened in September.
You think it's a is a cause and effect thing?
Yeah, well, he's saying we're no better off than 90 days ago.
And that coincides with the end of June.
And that's when uh Schumer, who by the way was the chairman of the uh Senate.
Wait a second now.
I I'm getting it maybe 90 days ago is three months.
Right.
Okay.
January, December, November.
So 90 days.
No, no, no, no.
We're going we're going to be able to do that.
Oh, I thought about 90 days ago is June.
Right.
Ninety days ago is is is is November.
No, no, no, no.
October.
