Charlie Foxtrot, this whole administration, his whole damn Democrat Party, Charlie, Charlie Foxtrot.
And the reply to that is Foxtrot Alpha.
Greetings, my friends, Rush Limbaugh, this, the Excellence in Broadcasting Network, the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies on Friday.
Live from the Southern Command in Sunny South Florida.
It's open line.
Friday!
No, no, no, no, no.
Oh no!
I'm on a roll here, and you're gonna Oh yes.
It's twenty one years.
Here I am in the middle.
I'm on a roll.
Yeah.
It's twenty-one years.
And the st this the staff is not at their seats.
The staff is in the studio here.
Just presented just presented me a uh anniversary cake, 21st anniversary and a singing balloon.
Yeah.
A singing balloon.
Cool in the gang.
Let's celebrate.
I can't hear you because Ed head and turn down the music.
But anyway, happy twenty.
This is our twenty first.
Well, it's tomorrow, actually, is the twenty-first anniversary.
I hadn't even decided whether I was gonna celebrate it today or Monday.
But I guess the we're celebrating it now.
Twenty twenty-first anniversary.
Well, yeah, it's big.
Um you can't blow those out.
Those are sparklers.
Well, that's cool.
Who's gonna eat the cake?
It certainly isn't going to be me.
I got my favorite, it's ice cream if you're not happy.
Oh, it's ice cream.
Okay, go ahead.
It's like a giant uh ice cream sandwich.
Thanks everybody on the staff.
And it is our 21st anniversary is tomorrow, uh August 1st, 1988.
We started the EIB network.
The uh Open Line Friday edition now continues.

I just saw, I didn't know this until the top of the hour break.
Uh, ladies and gentlemen, Senator Christopher Dodd has been diagnosed with prostate cancer and is going to have prostate cancer surgery in August.
What I don't know is whether he's going to Canada or the UK for the surgery.
Since he can't trust his insurance villains and doctors in this country to do it right.
Where's he going to get his prostate cancer surgery?
Canada or the UK.
He's staying here to get it done.
Christopher Dodd's gonna have his surgery in in America.
Senator Senator Dodd's gonna have prostate cancer surgery in the United States with this sucky health care system we have here.
Well, not according to him.
I know it's the best in the world, but not according to him and his doofus party.
Healthcare system in this country is such bad shape, such rotten shape that the same Dingleberries that screwed up the cash for clunkers thing.
You know, folks, this this Cash for Clunkers thing, can I put this in perspective for you?
This is a transaction that everybody over the age of 16 in this country understands.
Trading in an old car for a new one.
You go to the dealer, you make a deal, you get your new car, you go tell your friends how you screwed the dealer, how you had inside information on the real wholesale price, not the lies on the sticker.
That's it's it's an American tradition.
Everybody understands how to do it.
And be it's so simple, and yet it has been turned into one of the most complicated bureaucratic mazes possible.
Because a bunch of idiots who think they know better how to improve everything in this country are in charge of it.
We don't even know if it's suspended or not.
We're hearing both.
It is, it isn't.
It was, but it has been reenacted or re-employed or what have you.
Now, I don't want to upset people here on this, but the clunker program is a subsidy for the United Auto Workers and government-owned General Motors and Chrysler.
You think it's a subsidy for you, but it's a subsidy for them.
The other car companies are going to get some help too, but this is a subsidy for Obama Motor Companies.
And the union workers who work there.
That is why.
They don't want to give away too much money.
They don't want to return too much of your money.
The American people want tax cuts, deep, permanent as possible tax cuts that will allow people to buy new cars, old cars, or no cars, go out and buy claws, buy a new dishwasher, whatever people want.
It's staring them right in the face.
This program alone is right in the face telling them what they need to do to really stimulate this economy.
And of course, they won't expand on this because they want to be in command and control.
And they don't want you having too much freedom.
Now I have a couple of stories here.
One, the first story is from a mega car dealer who owns 21 dealerships.
And I'm told that that uh customers responded by going to showrooms in droves.
This dealer had about 100 applications for the uh for for the for the cash for the trade-in into the government.
This dealer who has 21 stores who had about a hundred applications has heard back on two customers, both rejected by the government.
He has spoken with other dealers around the country, and he says he ha he doesn't know of one approval.
Now that's not to say there haven't been any approval, just this guy talking to other mega dealers, can't find one approval.
Not one deal's been completed he can find out about.
Not one government check has been written yet.
To his dealership or to any of the other dealerships that he knows.
Here's another.
This is a clunker email.
A family try to take advantage of the program.
We have two old cars.
I referenced this earlier in the uh in the first hour.
We have two old cars.
When the clunker thing was announced, I th I thought surely our 13-year-old unreliable money pit would be a clunker.
Then Chrysler says that they'll match the 4,500.
That's nine grand.
I think that $9,000 off a new car.
So I start kind of looking and I decide Chrysler has a 22,000 streep down strip-down jeep that'll hold my family.
And then $9,000 off?
Why it might be worth rating the 401k again, right?
I I'm even a little giddy at the thought of getting 4,500 of my money back for a change.
It's not like I don't pay lots more than that in taxes every year.
Well, evidently, this person's clunker didn't qualify.
The 22,000 strip-down Jeep does not qualify either.
The 13-year-old car didn't qualify, and the 22,000 strip-down Jeep didn't qualify.
My well, the good car does, but the blue book is more than 4,500, so it's stupid.
But here's the rub.
According to the this person's experience.
Nothing that Chrysler makes that qualifies will hold my soon-to-be three teenagers anyway.
That's why Roomer and Stabenow have to talk about how great this is for the environment.
Because the cars that qualify don't hold families.
The question is this, folks.
One of the many questions is this.
Why is it any of Barack Obama's business or Debbie Stabenow's business or Christina Roomer's business?
What kind of car you drive?
Your taxes go up to subsidize one billion dollars that went to other people to buy new small cars, is what this is going to end up being if it works.
Otherwise, people keep driving clunkers.
Pay more taxes.
And this is how healthcare is going to work.
This is the blueprint for all of the mess that's going to Exist in health care.
What business does Barack Obama have determining what doctor you see?
What business is it of his?
What kind of treatment you seek and get?
What business is it of Barack Obama's what car you drive?
He's making every aspect of your life or as many aspects of your life as possible.
His decision.
His business.
Quick timeout.
We're going to get to your phone calls after this.
Stay with us.
How many of you today can honestly say you trust used car salesman more than congressmen?
I can.
I'd much rather deal with a used car salesman than a congressman.
About about Senator Dodd, I I hope he goes and gets a second opinion here, because based on what President Obama has said, Dodd's been diagnosed with uh with prostate cancer and is uh apparently going to stay in this country for the surgery, amazingly.
But I'd get a second opinion to make sure this doctor is just not diagnosing the surgery here for the line his pockets.
You know, Obama told us all these surgeons don't uh don't really have to take out all these tonsils they take out.
And I've Senator Dodd, you might want to get a second opinion here to make sure you actually need prostate cancer surgery.
I'm just I'm just trying to learn from our president.
We got news.
Our sales department called me yesterday, ladies and gentlemen, said that the uh the Justice Brothers, it's an often often on client, had requested in program commercial time for today.
And I said, What about?
And they said the beer summit.
I said, Well, people are getting, you know, uh, we'll sell them a couple commercials just for Friday in the in the program, Justice Brothers on the Beer Summit.
That's a nice quick thirty thousand bucks from the Justice Brothers.
Thomas Liffson has an interesting comment at American Thinker.com.
The White House, the official White House photo.
White House blog has published an official photo of the of uh one of the things that happened yesterday.
And here let me for those of you watching on the digital camera, let me let me show it to you.
I'm some I'm I don't I'm not gonna mess with the auto foot.
But you see there I don't want to mess with the focus, I really don't, because then I'll never get the rest.
What you have is Obama two steps ahead of Gates and the cop walking out of the West Wing.
And the what what we see is Obama's like two or three paces ahead, Sergeant Crowley is helping Professor Gates, who is walking with his cane down the steps.
This is what this is what Lifsen writes, Sergeant Gates, the sole class act in this trio, helps the handicapped Professor Gates down the stairs while Obama, heedless of the infirmities of his friend and fellow victim of self-defined racial profiling, strides ahead on his own.
So who is showing compassion here for a minority?
It's the cop.
The cop is helping Skippy Gates down the steps, and Obama just walking two steps ahead, ignoring him.
Folks, it let me tell you something.
My father.
My father told me many times one of the best ways to judge someone's character is to watch how they treat people who can't do anything for them.
If they treat people who can't do anything for them like dirt, then you're dealing with a lowbrow.
Plastic banana good time, rock and rock and roller phoniness.
Bad guys.
No character whatsoever.
All right, to the phones.
We're gonna start in Pittsburgh.
Bill, great to have you with us, sir, the EIB network.
Hello.
Thanks, Rush.
It's a pleasure talking to you.
Yes, sir.
But I heard you're talking about Cash McClunks, and I just had to chime in and just kind of tell la last night here are the government saying, you know, they shut it down, then they didn't shut it down.
And last night when I was at work, they uh we actually could not process any more applications because the government computers were shut down.
You couldn't even access them.
Wait, you're a car salesman, right?
That's correct.
Okay, so so you you um uh you were you work at an auto dealership.
Right.
And last night you heard the government's shutting down the program.
So what take take it from there again?
Well, they uh they had told us when I they started showing us uh news reports, you know, the general manager's uh very conservative guy and and you know Republican, and he kind of printed out something from the news, and we all looked at and shaked our heads.
You know, there were customers in the uh the showroom.
Well, you're supposed to take these applications of people that are you know want the cash for clunkers, whether it's the thirty, five hundred or forty five hundred, and then you you take their their clunker and put it in the back, and then and then you uh you take this application and you've got to put it all through the computer.
Once you find out that they're approved to get either the either one of those rebates, then you have to take it uh and and the whole application, and and it's really a lengthy thing you have to fill in on the computer.
And they went and tried, we had a backlog of about nine or ten applications last night, and they couldn't even put them in because the computer, you just can't access it.
It was actually.
The computer system shut down, it was overwhelmed.
But I want to know the mechanics of this.
Let's say I come in and I think I've got a clunker, and I want forty five hundred bucks for it for a new car from your dealership.
Well I have to leave the clunker with you at that moment, even if I don't get to drive off with the new car.
Oh, sure, we'll make we'll make the difference.
Well, basically what they've been doing is in the car you're the new car go with you and but put uh a dealer plate, in other words, it's a good one.
Okay, but when when do I get the forty five hundred bucks?
And what happens if after I drive off, you hear back from the the government that uh the whole process that I didn't qualify.
Well, see, that's where it's all in question.
No even the dealers are not sure they're gonna get unless we get a a definite approval, and we have on some, have driven away already, okay.
But we're now it's pending because they're you know, I went walking in there yesterday and they said we're not sure if any of some of these are even gonna go through.
So we'd have to actually call those people back because you know a dealership's not gonna get strapped forty five hundred dollars ten times.
You know, you're not gonna let somebody walk out, you know, and nothing.
Okay.
We have to get the money.
The government gives us the money.
On the forty, five hundred dollars, it's the dealership that gets reimbursed by the government, right?
You deduct that from the price of the car, the uh the new car buyer gets that taken off, walks out, drives off.
You then are on the hook for the 4500.
And if it's not approved and you've got a car that supposedly is now used and it's been driven, and you gotta you gotta get it back.
Well, the only ones we're letting drive away on on the a certain finished done deal are the ones that have been approved by the government.
Okay.
So now we have a backlog, and we're a small bush.
Let's say we have a backlog of ten of them that we couldn't put in last night.
Uh bunch more people come in today.
Well, I'm still not sure if the computers are up or not.
I haven't checked.
But yeah, we're on the hook for that 3545.
On the average four thousand dollars, okay.
Because you it depends on how much mileage you're saving on the vehicle you pick.
Yeah, good luck giving it to bring in.
Yeah, I understand how all that works.
I wish I had more time, but you got a lousy phone connection.
Your cell phone's going in and out.
Um I wonder why I'll ask the question we get back.
This is unfrigging believable.
I'm watching MSNBC.
They got this headline up on the screen.
Obama working on bipartisan solution to continue cash for clunkers.
Oh, so Obama's doing it now.
Obama's working on a bipartisan solution to continue the cash for clunkers program.
Meanwhile, ABC News reporting that the House of Representatives has pumped an additional two billion dollars into the cash strapped cash for clunkers program that was just after the top of the hour here.
Well now wait a minute.
The House says they've done it.
Obama says he is working on a bipartisan solution to continue cash.
You know, I'm used to being surrounded by idiots folks, uh we all are.
But I mean not governed by 'em.
Not governed by them and not told what I have to drive, can't drive bipartisan solution to find the cash for the cash for clunkers program.
Politico has this story.
Four of the most powerful business leaders in America arrived at the White House one day last month for lunch with President Obama sitting down on his private dining room just off the Oval Office.
White House staffers collected credit card numbers from each executive and carefully billed them the cost of the meal with the president.
The White House defended the unusual move as a way to avoid conflicts of interest.
Now I have had lunch in that dining room uh twice.
And I've had dinner up in the White House residence twice, or the the the during the eight years of George W. Bush.
I never was asked for a credit card, nor was I sent a bill.
The political story says that the Bush administration never charged presidential guests for meals.
And at least one etiquette expert found the whole thing unseemly, is suggesting it was a serious breach of protocol.
Letitia Baldridge, who headed up Jackie Kennedy's White House staff in the early 60s, says I'm sure they have their political reasons for doing that, but I think it's not what, quote, hospitality unquote is all about.
We gotta relax about this.
To have people to White House and worry about the price of things is laughable.
It is.
It is stupid as Jimmy Carter taking his own suitcase off Air Force One.
We all know it was empty.
It was a prop.
But this this is this is not this is not to avoid conflicts of interest.
This is Obama telling these guys who's boss.
This is this is it's it's always an honor to be invited there.
Did you notice, by the way, if you if you watched any video of the beer summit yesterday when the uh when the butler when the waiter went out there to serve?
Did you notice there was not even an acknowledgement of that guy from Biden?
From Gates or from Obama?
Not even an acknowledgement, not even a look, not even oh, thank you very much.
None of that.
Indentured servitude.
Uh but charging people for lunch in the White House.
Good lord.
This is Yeah, I'll bet he writes a check for a $55,000 date in New York.
I'll bet he wrote a check to get his wife and kids flown over to Paris on a 757 and back.
I'll bet he paid for all the shopping spree.
I'll bet he paid for all of that.
Look, the guy makes 400 grand a year.
I know he's got a reserve there because of the uh gazillions and uh royalties he earned from his book.
But you know, there is there is sort of a uh uh a budget presidents have.
Certain things like their their personal meals in the residence, they do have to pay for that.
Oh, yeah, they they they do.
But but stuff like this they don't.
This is expensive.
You're doing business having lunch in the White House, you don't charge I've I've eaten in the White House mess, I've never gotten a bill.
Well, I'm not allowed in a mess.
I've been in a wardroom of the mess.
But you uh you you gotta work there or be military to get in the mess.
But uh never ever gotten gotten a bill.
Uh John in uh Westminster, Maryland.
Great to have you.
It's open line Friday.
Hello, sir.
Hi, Russ.
Um, you know, who should be very terrified right now are first-time home buyers and uh home builders, realtors.
Anyone who's planning on taking advantage of that $8,000 credit that the government supposedly is promising and guaranteeing until a certain day, because a lot of these people are planning their business decisions around this and their lives where they live.
You know, can't some of the people who are buying.
Why should they wait?
Oh, they might just pull the plug at any time.
You never know.
You know, the the same people mismanaging the cash for contrast program are the ones who are administering that program and all the fund on that.
I don't know why you would think that.
Just because this bunch is goofing up this program doesn't mean they're gonna goof up that program.
I mean that program uh lasts until November.
Supposedly.
You know, if they missed it.
I have to admit I I I have to admit this is a uh this is a relevant point that you were making.
$8,000, max ten percent of uh subsidy for your mortgage if you are a first-time home buyer buying a new house.
But don't worry, Obama is working on a bipartisan solution to the Cash for Clunkers program.
What the hell bipartisan solution?
Have you ever had to have anything bipartisan to get a trade-in done?
It's a trade-in.
Except now, instead of the factory, instead of the corporate outfit taking care of the dealer on whatever rebate or incentive, you're dealing with a government agency or a series of them doing it, and they can't keep track of it, and it's a tiny one billion dollar program.
Aaron in Chico, California.
Nice to have you with us on the EIB network.
Hello.
Rush conservative dittoes.
Thank you, sir.
And I want to give you a quick uh anniversary present.
I recently just became a member of Aff Heritage, and I renewed for a two-year subscription to your 24-7.
Thank you for everything that you do, sir.
Well, that's thank you.
I appreciate that very much, sir.
It's good for you, too.
Yes, it is.
Thank you.
But my uh my comment this morning was uh regarding uh Bill Crystal apparently was on uh the Daily Show uh early this week.
Um and apparently John Day uh John Stewart got him to admit that government run health care works, uh, but to the office of working through the military.
And uh this was brought to my attention by a liberal friend of mine at work, and uh I didn't get a chance to say because we're kind of back and forth as far as working.
But uh what I didn't get a chance to tell her is that the the government owns you and you are property of the government, and they want you in and out taken care of so you can be put back in your position in them as far as working in the COG and machine of being in the military.
I was in the military and I know what it's like, but she doesn't get the point the fact that the government owns you, and you have pretty much Well, wait, wait, I I need to go back and uh uh not you said that Bill Crystal was on the Daily Show.
Yes.
What's the Daily Show first?
The Daily Joe with Stonk with John Stewart.
Oh, the oh, the Comedy Central thing that most young people think is real news.
Yeah, exactly.
Okay, okay, okay, I was having a mental block there.
Okay, so Bill Crystal goes on with John Stewart, and and did you say that Stewart gets Crystal to admit that government run health care works using the military as an example?
Yes.
And uh And so your point is well, of course it works because they own you and they get you in and out as fast as they can, and it's uh well I hear a lot of complaints from military people about their health care at the hospitals, the VA, and a number of other things.
What um well, this is just far as like when you go to the TNC as far as your basic treatment or your basic care or what have you, as far as like if you're sick, if you break a bone or whatever, they get you in, you go to the TNC, they send you back to your unit, you're set with a certain amount of uh what's a TNC.
Um it's the the medical center for on-site wherever you are on your base.
Okay, there's a certain number that's called a TNC training method.
Sort of like the uh the hospital of the PXs.
Yes.
Yeah, in a way.
But uh they they send you to the the one that's at your unit, you go in, you wait, you're seen, they prescribe you whatever for your duties that you can and can't do, and then they send you back to your unit.
But they send you in, they send you out, so you can go back to your unit and perform your task that you're meant to do in the first place.
Yeah, but these are these are in these circumstances, these are also military personnel who are the doctors and the nurses, correct?
Correct.
You're not dealing in the private sector at all.
No, not at all.
I mean, you might there has been some times where people, whether it be for like pregnancy or certain related things where they'll have um hospitals just outside the base hospitals that people can go to because it's closer to their home, some that are traveling from their house home uh off posts.
All right, but the point here is that you you think Crystal got tricked into admitting it works and you're trying to tell us it doesn't.
Right, because it's it's it's a it's a small little niche situation where it's specifically controlled where you get the entire thing.
The thing that gets me about this, I mean, I know John Stewart's a you know state-run uh, you know, live democrat, and if he's having to resort to pointing to the military as something that works in order to sell a program, that's a huge sellout.
These people hate the military.
We'll be back.
Stay with us.
Okay, we're back.
Rush Limbaugh, open line Friday with talent on lawn from God.
Here's a story from Iowa, a seventy-eight-year-old woman from Carroll, Iowa, says she is so tired of seeing Obama on TV that she is selling both of her TV sets.
Dolores Nissen, a retired nurse's aide and former Kmart employee, who was raised on a farm near Audubon, placed a classified ad with the Daily Times Herald for Friday's paper.
The ad cost her five and a half dollars.
She tells readers she has two TV sets for sale.
The reason Obama on every channel and station.
In an interview, Nissen said she's serious about selling a two TVs, genuine about her disgust with what she believes to be an overexposed president.
I just got tired of watching him on every channel.
I thought, my gosh, does he ever stay at the White House?
You know, I I have to agree with her.
I think she's I'm not selling TVs.
I just don't watch, but it's just it is oppressive.
Obama is everywhere and is driving a lot of people.
This woman's selling her TVs.
Now I know you're thinking, Rush, she could watch other channels.
I'm sure the woman wants to watch news.
She's 78 years old.
She's labing for the media to tell her what's the latest substance that she's eating.
It's gonna kill her.
And she can't get away from Obama.
Speaking of health care, ladies and gentlemen, this morning on MSNBC, Andrea Mitchell, NBC News, Washington, discussing the new NBC Wall Street Journal poll that's not good news for Obama on health care.
You've got 47% of the people in our NBC News Wall Street Journal poll who have health insurance who don't like what the president's doing.
The problem he's got, 47% of the people who've got coverage don't want change.
They don't like what they're hearing.
Now, they may not know what's good for them, but the problem is that he always knew he was going to have to persuade people with insurance.
That's the largest number, not the people without insurance for expanded coverage.
So they've got a real problem.
They may not know what's good for them.
Sums it up, folks.
That's how the state-run media propagandizing for Obama.
These 47% of the people who don't want, they don't like it, they don't want any part of it.
And actually, in what most polls it's over 50%.
Well, they may not know what's good for them.
But that's still a problem for Obama.
They may not know what's good for him.
So, the conclusion is Obama's brilliant.
The plan is flawless.
The plan is so good for all of us.
We just too stupid to know what's good for us.
And Andrea Mitchell calls herself a journalist.
Remember when Bill Clinton in Buffalo said, Well, the reason I'm not crazy about tax cuts is because um I don't think you spend the money as well as we will.
Do you remember that?
We don't know what's good for us.
That's I mean, that's the foundation of liberalism.
You're too stupid.
You're too ungrateful, you're too obtuse.
You're too stubborn, you're just dumb.
You don't know what's good for you.
So Andrea Mitchell and Obama have to do everything for you.
You're even too stupid to know what's good for you in the Cash for Clunkers program.
We have to tell you what kind of car you can drive, because you're too stupid to drive the real car.
Barney Frank.
Last Monday in Washington National Press Club, unidentified reporter for singlepayeraction.org had this exchange with Barney Frank.
Congressman, real quick, why single payer off the table?
The votes I wish you weren't.
I'm all for it.
I'm a big sponsor.
Don't you think we should scratch everything and start anew with single payer?
No.
Why shouldn't we start with single payer new?
I wish we did.
I think if we get a good public option, they could reach a single payer, and that's the best way to reach single payer.
The best way we're gonna get single payer the only way is to have a public option and demonstrate his faith and power.
The money quote here from Barney Frank is we don't have the votes for single payer right now.
Wish we did.
But if we get a good public option, that'll lead to single payer.
So there you Barney Frank admitting what the public option's all about.
You lose.
Everything about your health care now.
Nancy Pelosi last night on PBS the News Hour with Jim Lara, senior correspondent Judy Woodruff, says the proposal to taxi so-called Cadillac gold-plated health insurance plans.
Are you open to that idea to raise money for this?
I think there's a lot of interest in taxing insurance companies because people really do say across America they know that they have caused the problem that we have with their antitrust uh exemption that they have and and the uh uh immoral profits.
They're making billions of dollars in profits while they're cutting off people for uh uh benefits that they are entitled to under their insurance.
Immoral profits demonizing, villainizing the insurance companies.
Vicky in Belgium, Wisconsin, back to the phones on open line Friday.
Hi.
Happy Friday to you, Rush, and happy anniversary.
Thank you.
Thanks very much.
You know, uh, this health care issue, one of the things that I've not really heard anyone discuss.
Um, I work for a small business and um I'm a manager.
We the when people talk about the fact that, you know, the companies will offload the health insurance cost to a public option, which I think absolutely will happen.
But one of the things that I haven't heard anyone say is that most employees at small businesses will want that to happen because the health care costs to small businesses, insurance-wise, are so ridiculously expensive because government has not allowed companies to do, you know, group buying of insurance.
So the rates are so high they would be better off.
So you're saying that even despite what the president's saying that everybody's gonna rush to the public option, or a lot of people will El Quico, because they're all gonna think it's a better thing.
