The views expressed by the host on this program, documented to be almost always right, 99.1% of the time.
However, the views expressed by the host on this program may not represent the staff nor management of this station.
Even after 20 years, there are holdouts.
But soon we'll have them all in the fold.
Our telephone number, if you want to join us, 800-282-2882, email address, lrushbow at EIBnet.com.
I'm going to go out on a limb here.
I don't think Obama is going to get his national health care.
We got too many forces aligned up against it.
He's got some defections within his own party on this public option business.
I do not believe.
Plus, the doctors are tired of being the villains here.
I don't think that he's going to get away with getting the AMA.
He may get the AMA as a group, you know, like getting a union leader group to endorse what he's doing.
But the rank and file in the AMA, the doctors of this country are tired of being considered the villains in healthcare.
And it's only going to get worse for them if we get this public option, this government-run healthcare.
So if I were you, ladies and gentlemen, I'd don't give up on this one.
And I'll tell you another reason I think this is going to go down the flames.
Mrs. Clinton's health care plan was going to take years and years and years to roll out.
Obama's trying to get this done in two months.
He's trying to get it all taken care of in one piece of legislation.
And they're just and the closer this gets to 2010, which is an election year for a lot of Democrats in the House, the more problematic.
That's why he wants to do it now.
By the way, this guy, Dan Kildy, in Flint, Michigan, who came up with the idea of bulldozing 40% of Flint, Michigan, and turning the land over to nature.
We did some quick research on Dan Kildy.
And by the way, Obama likes his plan.
They want Kildy now to look at doing this in 50 American cities.
Dan Kildy, lifelong liberal Democrat politician.
He's now in the Flint, Michigan Town Council, and the UK Telegraph article says that.
His uncle, Dale Kildy, is the same liberal Democrat politician as now the congressman from the 5th District of Michigan.
The Kildie family is a family of lifetime government and political workers, not that we can find anyway, a second in the private sector.
And that's who wants to bulldoze 40% of Flint, Michigan.
Not rebuild it, not reinvigorate it, bulldoze it.
And Obama loves the plan so much, hey, Dan, figure out how we can do this in 50 other American cities.
It was just last week that Evan Thomas of Newsweek called President Obama a sort of god.
This week in Newsweek, Robert Samuelson, also a columnist for the Washington Times, has a piece called Obama's Unhealthy Reform.
And here's the lead.
It's hard to know whether President Obama's health care reform is naive, hypocritical, or simply dishonest.
Probably it's all three.
The president keeps saying it's imperative to control runaway health spending.
He's right about that.
But the trouble is that what's being promoted as health care reform almost certainly won't suppress spending and quite probably will do the exact opposite.
How much healthier today's uninsured would be with government coverage is unclear.
They already receive health care, $116 billion worth in 2008, estimates Families USA and Advocacy Group.
Some is paid by the uninsured themselves, 37%, some by government, some paid by charities.
The remaining uncompensated care is either absorbed by doctors and hospitals or shifted to higher private insurance premiums.
Some uninsured would benefit from coverage, others would not.
Either they're healthy or they would get ineffective care.
Robert Samuelson, same magazine that referred to Obama as a sort of God last week now says he's lying or naive or hypocritical.
Probably all three.
Back to the audio soundbites.
Let's see.
This is where we're going to pick this.
Audio soundbite number 10.
Make sure.
Hang on.
Let me get to the next page.
Yep.
Number 10 and 11 coming up here.
This is me, a short time, just a month ago, May 13th, behind the golden EIB microphone.
There's no way that these health benefits are not going to be taxed, one way or a couple of ways.
There's no way.
They're going to be taxes income to you, imputed income to you, or they're going to eliminate the tax deductibility and maybe a combination of both.
It's too great a source of money and they don't have any.
And they want national health care.
And they're going to tell everybody only the rich are going to be paying this tax anyway, not you, as they lie to you again.
Yesterday on Meet the Press, David Gregory to Joe Biden.
Will the president sign a bill that taxes health care benefits for employees?
We made it clear we do not think that is the way to go.
We think that is the wrong way to finance this legislation.
So if the bill comes with that, no, I didn't say that.
Now, that happened pretty quickly.
Let me read that to you.
Because this is, you know, Biden's learning here from O'Biden or vice versa.
Obama, I'm sorry.
We made it clear we do not think taxing health care benefits is the way to go.
We think that's the wrong way to finance the legislation.
Gregory.
So if the bill comes with that, Biden.
No, no, no, no.
The president wouldn't sign it.
Biden.
I didn't say that.
We don't think it's the way to go, but if we have to sign it with that in it, if it's the only way we can get it, we'll do it.
In other words, they just want to pass it off to Congress.
They want Congress to take the heat on raising taxes on your health care benefits.
That's all it is.
The downsizing of the U.S. consumer, Money Magazine, old colon.
There's been one stall mark, a stalwart the economy could count on for the past quarter century.
That's you, the American consumer.
Name any calamity in recent memory, savings and loan crisis, the bursting of a tech bubble, even 9-11.
Every time you, the consumer, came to the rescue by opening your wallet and going shopping, which is what the U.S. economy is.
The American people engaging in commerce.
Rising stock prices, falling tax rates, by the way, rising stock prices, not today.
On Friday, I believe it was Friday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at, it closed up to a point where it had wiped out all the losses in calendar 2009.
But that's gone.
It's down 195 at this moment.
And Obama's Medicare speech, his healthcare speech, did not bring it back.
Rising stock prices, falling tax rates, seemingly endless supply of cheap credit helped.
So did a housing boom that allowed homeowners to raid their equity.
No wonder spending grew to more than 70% of GDP.
The new is this.
The plunges in housing and stocks, rising unemployment, and tighter lending standards have made the consumer the problem, not the solution.
That's the wrong way to put this.
I know what they're trying to say.
The problem is not the consumer.
The problem is that assets and wealth in the private sector are being depleted by Obama.
The economy has plunged.
The consumers are holding on to what they have for fear there are going to be more losses.
So they're trying to say that the consumer's reluctance to spend, the consumer's reluctance to engage in commerce is now the problem, where it used to be the solution.
Well, if you want to reverse that, what do you do?
What do you do?
You need to put more money in the hands of more consumers, do you not?
And how do you do that?
Well, you do not do it by raising their taxes.
You do not do it by depleting money in the private sector and transferring it to government control.
Economists don't think this behavior will change after the recession as families work to repair their finances.
As a result, the U.S. economy is likely to grow at a slower pace than its usual annual rate of 3%.
Economies in emerging markets like China will likely be the new drivers of global wealth.
All because of the philosophy of Barack Obama and the Liberal Democrats.
You simply cannot take control of the private sector to the degree they have and want to in even more ways transfer that wealth to government control and expect the private sector to grow.
The private sector, by definition, shrinks.
If Obama is successful in getting health care transferred to government control, all of it, that's $2.5 trillion.
That's one-fifth of the U.S. economy.
You take $2.5 trillion out of the private economy, move it over to the government, guess it's gone.
And that's what he's proposing to do.
Brief time out, much more straight ahead as we continue.
Hey, folks, I don't want you to get overconfident now when I postulate that the healthcare system Obama wants is going to go down to tubes and that he's not going to, I don't mean you should just say to yourself, all right, it's over.
It's only going to fail if everybody keeps speaking out against it, if everybody maintains their energy level against it.
I'm just telling you, I'm getting the sense that the energy level to this point is starting to get some traction.
But don't take my opinion here that it can be beaten back and stopped as a sign that it has been and that you don't need to get engaged or involved in it.
The North Koreans, ladies and gentlemen, are now talking about nuclear war.
After the UN sanctions, the North Koreans are saying, well, screw you, we're in nuclear war.
And the CHICOMs, our buds, are saying, you better not use any, many militaristic approaches here to dealing with our friends, the North Koreans.
Now, everybody's looking at Iran and everybody's looking at Obama's domestic agenda.
North Korea front and center in terms of making news.
People at the Heritage Foundation have been reading research, insightful information at AskHeritage.org for some time.
And long before the people in the drive-by media, the state-run media picked up the story on North Korea, the Heritage Foundation was producing and releasing a film called 33 Minutes.
33 minutes is the length of time it would take for a nuclear ballistic missile launched from North Korea to reach a U.S. city.
33 minutes.
And Obama's talking about cutting missile defense at the same time.
This is a chilling documentary.
Makes the case for just how America can and should protect itself.
So, members of the Heritage Foundation are already up to speed on the effect of Obama's budget cut request, $1.4 billion in missile defense, as being wrong at this time.
You can see highlights of this documentary at www.askheritage.org.
Become a member.
I am a member.
And you'll be one of many other people.
And you'll be able to see many, many things that you suddenly have access to.
And you can set up a screening of this film with friends and neighbors.
Askheritage.org.
They're doing great work there.
And this documentary, 33 Minutes, is a great illustration from the San Francisco Chronicle last Thursday.
Jobs from the stimulus hard to find.
Now, remember, we've already played the soundbite of Biden.
So, yeah, we guessed wrong on that stimulus.
It's not going to create whatever number of jobs.
Now, only going to create 600,000 jobs.
It's not even going to create 600,000 jobs.
There's nothing in that bill that creates a single job counts.
President Obama announced that the $787 billion Porculus bill had created or saved 150,000 jobs in his first 100 days, and will create or save 600,000 more in the next 100 days.
Good luck finding them.
And the story goes on to describe people who are out of work and are looking for all these jobs that are supposedly being promised by all this stimulus spending, and they aren't there.
And of course, they're not there.
Have you seen unemployment?
It's up to 9.4% after Obama's stimulus bill.
Here's Walter in Blairstown, New Jersey.
Great to have you on the EIB network.
Hello.
Rush.
Yeah.
P.B. Dittos.
Thank you, sir.
You're welcome.
I know something about health insurance because most of my or much of my adult life I've carried my own policy.
And Obama is setting up this straw man, President Obama, I should say, is setting up this straw man about preexisting conditions.
Preexisting conditions is something, it's not so much something you have as something you know you have.
It's something that has to be diagnosed previously, or it's something that a reasonable person would have to seek medical attention for.
And President Obama is making it out that a person can be denied coverage.
A person cannot be denied coverage because of preexisting conditions.
Treatment can be denied for a period of time, but my son is disabled.
He's blind, and he's deaf.
I'm nervous, Rush.
He's blind.
He's deaf.
He has a heart condition.
He needs support in all areas of living.
And last year, New Jersey canceled his Medicaid.
So I called my insurance company, and I said, I'm being a reasonable person or a responsible person, and I said I needed a policy for my son.
So I explained to them that he's disabled and that he takes a lot of medicine, but I was still able to buy coverage for him.
And not only was I able to buy coverage for him, but because he had Medicaid going in, there was nothing against his preexisting conditions.
All right.
Now, that's an excellent point.
And I'll tell you something else.
If you didn't have that private option, you'd be SOL.
You wouldn't be able to get insurance for your kid from the government.
And not only could they not deny him coverage, they can't even charge him more.
The charge is based on...
Now, you're going to have a lot of people out there.
We're going to get a lot of calls from people who have pre-existing condition limitations put on them and are going to disagree with what you're saying.
I just want to prepare you for that.
If we get some, we'll put them on because a lot of people, this is very strange what you're saying to a lot of people who have been bitten by this preexisting condition, rigmarole.
I live in New Jersey.
I've done this in New York and I've done it in New Jersey.
I can't speak to all 50 states.
His premium was exactly the same.
They have a rate chart.
It goes by the county you live in and it goes by your age.
Now, here's something else.
Another point I want to make about this.
Did you hear the description that Walter gave of his son?
He's disabled in practically every way you can be.
He's blind.
He's deaf.
He's got a heart problem.
Now, that is the kind of condition for which we need reasonable insurance.
We don't need health insurance or people to go to the doctor for a sore throat.
We don't need 50 tests when you have a sore throat or however many tests they give you.
But it's this kind of unusual, out-of-the-ordinary condition that ought to be the first that's insured and take a lot of other people off the insurance rolls who can pay for this by themselves.
And then you will lower premiums for everybody and you'll cover the people who actually need because this man, with his son's condition, there's no family that could afford the kind of cover of the kind of medical bills that this young man is going to require.
That's what you need catastrophic insurance for.
And it's conditions like his, his kids, that are the hardest to insure because everybody else is being insured for things and they have to draw the line.
Okay, you got a pre-existing condition here or you've got, well, I mean, why should we insure this life expectancy here?
All that sort of stuff.
But if you lower the cost pressure, the price pressure of some of these other insurance policies that are not even necessary.
Now, the insurance company may not like hearing me say this.
I mean, they love the premiums.
But still, I mean, this is the, you know, when you talk about a responsible health care system, this is it.
We don't need insurance for nine people, six people to make 2,600 visits, nine people to make 2,600 visits to a single emergency room in six years.
We don't need health insurance for that.
This is so out of whack.
But this pre-existing condition, look, I have preexisting conditions.
We all do.
I'm 58 years old.
I'm able to get, I have to have every year key man insurance in order to do this program.
Since I'm it, if I go, so goes the show.
So I have to get insurance for that.
It's a thriving business called Key Man.
You would not believe the physical I have to take for this.
And it shows up pre-existing conditions.
The premium is what it is.
You go to get the best price you can.
But the point is, I can get it.
It's out there.
I wonder what would happen to Key Man Insurance when the government's running it, especially mine.
Back to the phones we go.
And Shauna in Spring, Texas.
Great to have you here on the EIB Network.
Hi.
Hi, Rush.
I'm so excited to talk to you.
Thank you.
I am a doctor in Texas, and I was listening to Barry's speech, and he says that doctors will be better off because if we don't, prices are going to skyrocket, premiums will go up, and our practices will suffer.
But if you listen to what he said, he said that a large part of this will be paid by reimbursements being based on outcomes and best practices, which means that if a patient doesn't get a perfect outcome, they're going to just deny the claim.
And this already happens.
That's bad enough.
But who's in charge of deciding the best outcome?
Exactly.
Two people, the trial lawyers and Barack Obama.
Well, and I'll give you an example that already happens.
With Medicare, if you have a patient in the hospital and she needs a catheter in her bladder for days at a time and she gets an infection from that catheter, even though having it in with the standard of care, Medicare will deny the whole admission and not pay for anything if she gets an infection.
How common are bladder infections with a catheter?
All the time.
Because when you give antibiotics and you do everything right and everything perfect, it's going to happen sometimes.
And so the whole admittance, everything to do with it, can be denied.
Yes, and that happens every day.
So Dr. Gerg basically works from the hospital's office when it works for nothing.
Yep.
And Obama says this is going to get worse if we don't do his plan.
Yeah.
So it's getting worse for us.
Cut to the chase.
You're a doctor.
You heard Obama's speech.
Are you inspired?
Absolutely not.
Quite the contrary.
I don't believe anything he said about cost.
Are you a member of the AMA?
No.
All right.
Well, you know about them, I'm sure.
I do, but they're a little too liberal for me.
Well, it's like the American Bar Association.
It's just a bunch of commie bastards.
They are.
They are.
Just a bunch of commie bastards anymore.
The ABA leadership.
American Bar Association.
Tort lawyers run the whole thing.
And I just wonder if the AMA is a similar special interest group.
All Obama has to do is promise the AMA some money.
There's all kinds of leverage he has with that group.
And then, of course, the drive-bys, the state-run media can go to the AMA, report whatever one person there says, and make the country think that's the opinion of every doctor.
So we'll see how this shakes out.
Thanks, Shauna.
Dicks in Northampton, Massachusetts.
Your turn.
Hello.
Hi, Rush.
I was thinking a good headline for that Flint story would be destroy it and increase its value.
What's the headline?
That would be a good headline for the story.
Destroy something and increase its value.
Oh, I see what you mean.
Yeah, well, they want to bulldoze, if you've missed this, they want to bulldoze 40% of Flint because apparently 40% of the town has homes that are boarded up, foreclosed on, and so forth.
So they want to bulldoze it and turn that land over to nature and downsize the city.
I mean, that's just something I'm not ever thought I would see in America.
Well, we had urban renewal back in the 60s, and there's cities that are still suffering from that.
Yeah, okay, it's a good way.
Another form of urban renewal.
And we know who got renewed, by the way.
And they weren't renewed.
Well, the reason I called, Rush, was I've been thinking about the first chance that the electorate will have to put the brakes on the government is, of course, the congressional elections in 2010.
That's right.
And I was thinking, where could we get some candidates that would have name recognition and not too heavily identified with the party, would have the skills and everything.
And I thought, how would it go to encourage disenfranchised car dealers, of which there are five, an average of five in every congressional district, to take up the run for Congress?
They have the mailing lists, local contacts, are known locally.
People evidently trust them if they've been customers of them.
Yeah, but see, look, if a disenfranchised car dealer runs for office, how many voters are going to trust the sticker price of the vote?
Well, they have as good a chance as they have trusting the sticker price on the vote that they're going to get otherwise.
Look, I like your thinking.
I like the fact that you are thinking because there are a lot of disgruntled, disenfranchised.
Their businesses have been taken away from them by Barack Obama, who doesn't want to run the car business.
He doesn't want to run the banks.
He doesn't want to run health care.
He's got enough on his plate.
He's got to run.
He's got to rock.
He's got North Korea.
He's got Afghanistan.
He doesn't want to run all this stuff.
But he doesn't make any speeches about any of that other stuff.
He runs around and makes sales speeches on all this domestic stuff that he wants to control.
Well, it will depend on who the candidates are.
But look, let me remind you again, Gallup poll out today, 40%, and this is the largest percentile.
40% of American voters identify themselves as conservatives.
21% identify themselves as liberals.
About 22% of that 40% is Democrat conservatives.
So all conservatives have to, all the Republican Party has to do is run a full-blow conservative campaign.
And they'll pick up that 40%.
That's why I said if the Republicans had nominated a conservative in 2008, Obama could have been beaten.
And this is why the left, you know, don't listen to people on our side who rip Sarah Palin.
Don't listen to Republicans who rip Sarah Palin.
Listen to Democrats.
Listen to liberals.
They'll tell you who they're afraid of.
They tell you who they're afraid of by trying to destroy them.
If they thought Sarah Palin was the easiest slam-dunk defeat they could ever engineer, they would be talking her up.
They're scared to death.
She can draw 20,000 people, as it was said earlier today by somebody reading a cookbook.
There's no other Republican candidate that enthused and energized the crowd that way.
So just listen to the left.
Just listen to the Democrats.
40% of the people identify themselves as conservative.
Now, people say, well, if that's the case, how did Obama win?
I can give you a number of factors.
Bush fatigue, there was no conservative on the ballot to vote for.
And the whole notion is change parties.
Let's just change it.
It's been eight years.
Everybody hates a Republicans.
Let's just change parties.
A lot of conservatives stay at home.
But 60 million people did not vote for Obama.
58, 60 million people did not vote.
We got to get rid of Reagan, they say.
Reagan got 58% of the vote in 1984.
58%.
What was Reagan?
It was a conservative.
I get blue in the face talking about this.
It's so simple.
It really is so simple.
And the people who think they're the smartest people in the room have to get in there and start monkeying around with something that's not complicated to try to prove how smart they are, whatever else they're trying to establish.
When the blueprint's there, and the base is ready to go, the right candidates.
So if you are a Republican and if you're thinking for running, I don't care what part of the country you live in either, by the way, forget this Northeast garbage.
Might have to exempt Massachusetts, but I doubt it.
Certainly maybe Maine.
If you're a Republican and you want to win and you want to run for office in 2010, be conservative and don't make any excuses for it.
And don't apologize for it.
Just run as a conservative on the principles.
Apply the principles to today's issues.
And that ain't going to be hard because it's the easiest thing in the world to contrast conservatism with socialism.
And that's what Barack Obama and the Democrat Party is.
Lincoln in New Orleans, great to have you on the program, sir.
Hello.
Rush, Greg.
It's great to talk with you.
I just wanted to respond to a very perceptive comment you made regarding Obama according to the AMA.
Obama obviously is doing this as a public relations ploy to get them to sign on board to his version of health care reform.
Now, what the public does not understand is that the AMA does not represent America's physicians.
The AMA has, to put it kindly, has always been very, very supportive of politicians.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Hold it a second.
I missed a word.
Did you say the AMA does not support patients?
No, the AMA has not been very supportive of or very representative of doctors' interests.
Only about 25, maybe 30% at most of the nation's physicians are members of the AMA.
I'm a surgeon.
I have not been an AMA member for 20 years.
I think most of the surgeons in this country are not AMA members.
So it's a very convenient way for Obama to go ahead, make a big PR splash in front of the convention there in Chicago, try and get the AMA to sign on board, and ipso facto, de facto, to then extrapolate that to saying the nation's physicians support my health care plan, which is a huge, huge, huge leap of.
Yeah, it's like the AARP claiming to represent every seasoned citizen or the ABA claiming to represent every lawyer.
My brother's a lawyer, and I'll guarantee you, whatever the ABA says about judicial nominees, 90% of the time, my brother disagrees with.
And he's, I think my brother's a member of the AMA, American Bar Association.
I don't know.
Yeah, well, I think that's a pretty good analysis.
The AMA is the same thing, huh?
The AMA is the same thing.
You know, they've been, you doctors snicker, you know, at the AMA, and they're sure they have a core group of supporters.
But as far as the rank and file position in America being a supporter of the AMA or the AMA speaking for physicians, no way.
Good.
The problem is the America's physicians are a very, very diverse group of people with diverse interests.
So it makes it very easy politically to be divided and conquered.
I knew it.
I knew it.
Obama goes out there, talks to a left-wing group, like a union leadership.
It's like saying all union members are left-wing Democrats.
They're not.
Anyway, there's no question he's going to say, yeah, the AMA supports my plan, thereby try to make everybody think all the doctors do.
We've heard from you.
We heard from the woman doctor in Spring, Texas, said she's not even a member of the AMA.
Lincoln, I appreciate the call.
I really do.
We got to go.
We'll be back after this.
Ladies and gentlemen, the White House, since this program has an international reach, the White House has asked us to facilitate the president's new policy on Miranda rights to terrorist detainees in Afghanistan, anywhere else we happen to find them.
Well, there you have it.
The official word from the White House now on how the terrorist detainee Miranda rights are going to work.
People are being gunned down in Iran.
We mentioned this earlier in the program.
People are being gunned down by officials there.
And yet, this was posted this morning at the Huffington Post by somebody named Ann Wright.
While Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was making a major foreign policy speech at Tel Aviv University Sunday, Israeli police outside the university attacked international protesters of Israel's invasion of Gaza, illegal settlements, and the apartheid wall.
Heavy-handed police treatment of the unarmed, peaceful members of Code Pink began immediately after they unfurled several pink banners that read free Gaza and end the occupation.
CODE PINK co-founder Medea Benjamin and New York activist Zul Zulkowitz were physically dragged across the street from their original protest site next to the entrance gate to Bar-Ilan University where audience members and press entered the.
They're gunning people down in Iran and their peaceful protests in Israel, and that's what CODE PINK and the American left media is concerned with.
One of my friends, one of my golf buddies, has a laptop computer.
He has a Mac, he's got, he's a, I think he's got the 15-inch Mac Book Pro and he has been holding out signing up for Carbonite.
He finally, last week, signed up, sent me a note.
I'm glad I'm finally doing this because he it came to grips.
The guy travels a lot and his business is on his laptop and it finally came to grips when he started the backout, the backup.
What could have happened all of these times?
Travels internationally, all these places?
What could have happened when he gets his computer checked by homeland security and so forth?
So he signed up for Carbonite.
And you should too, if you haven't, if you have a new computer, if you're new to the business of computers or if you just never backed up, understand that your hard drive is gonna, it's gonna fail on you.
Something's gonna happen.
It's either gonna just crash or somebody's gonna spill something on your computer.
Carbonite is an off-site online backup and it occurs whenever you are connected to the internet.
You don't have to tell it to do it.
Set it up the first time and it does it after the initial backup.
It'll only back up what has changed each time you log on to the internet and if you have a constant connection uh, then it's always backing up.
Carbonite.com is where you go.
It's cheap it's like 54 a year but the first two weeks are free, first 15 days, with no credit card necessary.
If you use offer code rush, so do it.
Offer code rush at carbonite.com.
The Msnbc NEWS Services is some wire service.
Obama plans sweeping financial regulations.
Overhaul of Wall Street bank rules could be biggest changes since the 1930s.
He's going to roll out an overhaul of intricate rules and pay schedules and systems that govern America's financial institutions.
But he doesn't want to run anything.
He says he doesn't want to run it.
