Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 podcast.
What a freaking day, folks.
The national hemorrhoid has doubled down.
After the White House went through the motions of making it look like they're throwing him under the bus.
The National Hemorrhoid goes out there, makes a speech in Atlanta, and doubles down on the racism.
The fact that racism is behind all the criticism of President Obama.
Maxine Waters wants an investigation of the teabaggers.
That's what she calls them, the uh people showing up at these rallies.
Worker morale has uh suffered, worker morale getting beat down.
Now that's incredible because the Washington Post, I think it was no, it was New York Times yesterday had this story that hey, uh, even if you're even if you're uh not working, it's okay because people who are working are getting raises.
And they went on to point out that the companies out there that are used to churn through employees are not doing that anymore.
They're they're they're not firing anybody, but they're not hiring, and that's good.
And now we have a story the Washington Post today.
So uh sorry, CNN.
CNN says worker morale getting beat down.
Uh all of that, much more coming up.
Greetings, great to have you here.
Rush Limbaugh at 800-282-2882, and the email address L Rushball at EIB net.com.
President Barack Obama.
Fulfilling something I knew was going to happen.
Part of his view that this country is unjust and immoral, has abandoned Poland and has abandoned Czechoslovakia.
On September 17th, 2009, the President of the United States made this announcement.
We will continue to work cooperatively with our close friends and allies, the Czech Republic and Poland, who had agreed to host elements of the previous program.
I've spoken to the Prime Ministers of both the Czech Republic and Poland about this decision and reaffirmed our deep and close ties.
Together, we are committed to a broad range of cooperative efforts to strengthen our collective defense, and we are bound by the solemn commitment of NATO's Article V that an attack on one is an attack on all.
That's absolute BS.
This happens to come, he's he's he's canceling the missile shield in Europe to protect these uh these emerging democracies from Russia.
He got in bed with Putin.
He got in bed with the KGB, got in bed with Medvedev, uh, which is an essentially getting in bed with Iran because that shield was also going to be some sort of protection for uh anything launched out of Iran.
And he makes this announcement to Poland and the Czech Republic 70 years to the day of the Soviet invasion of Poland.
This is not an accident, it is not a coincidence.
This man is making a statement about what he thinks of past U.S. foreign policy and imperialism from the UK Times Online dismay in Europe as Obama ditches missile defense.
Fledgling democracies in uh eastern and central Europe have now been sacrificed to appease the Russians.
And a lot of people feared this was gonna happen after Obama went over to Moscow, had a meeting with Putin and had a meeting with Medvedev that this would be the uh the result of it.
So let's let's uh take some things in order.
The president not only is he weakening our economy, not only is the president attacking the U.S. economy, he is now weakening our foreign policy, he is weakening our military, he is weakening uh national defense.
And it's all being done on purpose.
Obama turned 9-11 into a day of serving the state.
He's about to go wobbly on Afghanistan, too.
The generals over there say, We need more troops, but in uh in Washington, Pelosi and John Kerry, who served in Vietnam, so we're not gonna no more trips, no more trips, and so Obama's about to go wobbly there.
He will not rush his decision on his commander's call for more troops to win there.
Uh he has surrendered missile defense to Putin now.
He's moving toward large cuts in defense spending.
And just as dangerous while all this is going on, Barack Obama is bankrupting the United States.
He is severely weakening our economy.
We're not going to be able to afford to defend ourselves even if we wanted to before this guy gets through.
The dollar rapidly declining in value, as is America's military might.
Um you know, uh I started the year by saying I hope Obama fails.
I'm actually wondering, I'm asking myself, is it maybe that Obama wants America to fail?
So that he can rebuild it and remake it.
Is it not eerie?
Yesterday, the national hemorrhoid, Jimmy Carter, emerges from whatever orifice he holds up in, and all of us have a massive itch looking for the giant tube of preb itch, prep H to deal with it.
He doubles down today, or in a speech last night saying I'm not backing down, I'm gonna say it even louder.
Here is a man the by any objective estimate, the worst president of this or last century.
And is it his presidency is being paralleled?
It's being recycled.
Everything Jimmy Carter did to our national security setup, everything he did to the military is being done by Barack Obama.
Everything Carter did to destroy the U.S. economy being done by Barack Obama.
And I, you know, folks, I don't like talking about myself on this program a lot.
I don't like patting myself on the back, but I did often predict that uh we're this this administration is going to be Jimmy Carter on steroids.
Now, if uh if if if he's scrapping missile defense in Eastern Europe, and it doesn't leave them very many options.
I mean, he gets on the phone and says, You guys, oh, don't worry, uh, we're one of us is attacked, uh, we all get attacked.
Uh NATO Article 5, don't worry about it, you guys.
Uh, we got it handled.
Uh, and they're not feeling comfortable about this.
How well's the newer smarter?
You mean Obama's got a newer smarter system?
He's got a newer, smarter than what the missile defense?
A newer, smarter system of defense, newer, smarter, what what?
Like not defending anything.
Oh, you're gonna use boats, you're gonna launch the missiles from from boats.
He gonna you're gonna launch defensive missiles from boats to protect Eastern Europe.
What body of water uh are these boats going to be floating at?
Well, maybe it's if it's smarter, it's too smart for me to understand.
Anyway, maybe if they can't have our missile shield, um maybe they might consider adopting our second amendment and build some bunkers.
Maybe Obama could give them some grants, bucks for bunkers, bucks for buckshot.
It's the least we could do for our former allies.
Uh, ladies and gentlemen, the majority of those people still employed now put in longer hours for less pay, quelling motivation in the workplace.
Now, the headline's depressing enough.
The whole story is uh is a downer, especially when you realize that Obama wants to add more pain on top of this with taxes on health care and cap and trade.
Uh, what is it, $1,700?
The administration itself is saying $1,700 additional per family in cap and trade taxes to an average family.
The incentive to grow, the incentive to prosper is being snuffed out and snuffed out fast.
You don't have to get laid off to feel the pain of the recession.
Many workers lucky enough to have survived the acts are still feeling unhappy and unmotivated at work, raises bonuses.
Other incentive programs have been slashed since the downturn began.
Employees saddled with additional workloads for less pay are becoming increasingly dissatisfied with their current position.
You can't help but just do the bare essentials to keep from getting fired, said Dominic Eger, information technology specialist in Phoenix.
If Eger's not alone, it's clear that the recent economic downturn has had an adverse impact on productivity and morale.
Well, wait a minute.
Seriously, now the New York Times said just the opposite yesterday, that if you are still working, and if you haven't been laid off, you're getting raises.
Wages are booming out there.
We had the story, and I know it was just a you know a uh a transparent cover-up of uh of Obama and his dismal economy, but they still said it.
But now all of a sudden CNN is throwing cold water on the whole thing, worker morale getting beat down.
Here's Maxine Waters.
This was yesterday.
She was on the uh Fledgling Bill Press radio show and press said, Do you uh do you agree with President Carter that all the criticism of our great president is rooted in racism?
What I've been interested in is hearing from those people that everybody's referring to, the people on the mall in the rally.
What's on their mind?
I'm looking for the air people who carry the signs.
I want those people talked to.
I want them interviewed.
I want uh journalists to be all over those rallies and those marches of the uh berthas and the tea baggage.
I actually think this is a great idea.
I think it's absolutely a great idea.
She went on to say, if you if you put the microphones in front of them, if you do the interviews, they'll tell you what they believe, what they think.
That's a great idea, Maxine.
Let conservatives tell the state-controlled media what they think and why.
Actually go out and cover the rally.
Don't just rely on a C-span camera.
Actually, go out there and cover the rallies and talk to these people.
Find out what it is they're doing there and why they're doing there.
And then everybody will be shocked when they hear no explanation that contains racism.
I actually got a little worried there when I some of you know I actually agree with what Maxine Waters is saying here, although for different uh different reasons.
Speaking of Maxine Waters, the uh this is from the Los Angeles Times House House Ethics Committee is investigating Representative Maxine Waters, who has come under scrutiny because of her husband's ties to a bank that received federal bailout funds.
Word of the investigation came as the committee announced that it was delaying an inquiry into whether the representative uh Jesse uh Jackson Jr. or his representatives tried to buy a Senate seat vacated by Obama by promising to raise money for Blogo.
The final panel cited an ongoing federal investigation in Chicago.
So uh uh Maxine sent some stimulus money to her husband at a bank.
And the House ethics panels and basically how racist is this?
How can you know targeting Jesse Jackson Jr. now tank targeting Maxine Waters as as as racist?
It's just gotta be racist.
Why go why else?
I mean, who in Washington doesn't use stimulus money to send to their spouse?
Diane Feinstein did it.
Hey, look at her.
She's Jewish and she's white.
Of course you're not gonna investigate her, but they're investigating the black babe.
Maxine Waters has to be racism.
You know, I met Maxine Waters once.
Yes, I did.
It was uh Super Bowl Sunday 1995.
I believe it was when it was in Atlanta, and it was the game between the the cowboys and the Buffalo Bills, and it was the night, actually the night before, I think it was the commissioner's party.
And I'm trolling around there, and I'm I'm uh saying hello to some people that I knew, and I get this tap on the back and I turn around.
It's Maxine Waters and her husband Sidney, who got the g bank cash uh from uh from stimulus money.
And Maxine looks at me and says, you know, I'm not I'm I'm not a socialist, I'm I believe in free markets.
I mean, she started telling me about the businesses that she and her husband own and all this sort of stuff, and I'm just at the Super Bowl this happens to me.
But she she made I don't remember the exact conversation, but she made a big point out of saying she wasn't socialist.
She believed in profit and all that.
And obviously, uh her husband does too.
Profit from your tax dollars.
Maxine.
No, I don't, I don't you know that's I think Sidney, and he used to play for either the Oakland Raiders or the uh or the Steelers.
I'm not sure his name is not Waters.
I I don't know, I don't what's I don't remember Sydney's last name, but Maxine Waters' husband.
But yeah, something in my mind says he did have a rogue auto dealership somewhere in Jamaica or in the Bahamas or some such thing that that got some for some reason attention was focused.
Obviously, uh it was racist.
Uh the the attention focused on it.
Waters uh was in the spotlight earlier this year because uh Massachusetts based one united bank received twelve million dollars in bailout funds three months after uh Waters, a senior member of the Congressional Committee of Overseas Banking helped arrange a meeting between officials of the bank and other minority-owned financial institutions and Treasury Department representatives.
And don't forget, what that what wasn't there some other stimulus package some years ago, I forget what it was, uh maybe the Mexican bailout or something.
What was it?
Oh, that's right, that's right.
It was the floods in North Dakota.
We had federal bailout money for the floods in North Dakota and uh Maxie Waters went to the floor of the house and said, Well, hell, if you're gonna bail them out, I want money for my constituents in South Central.
And uh, and uh what it turned out to be grooming grooming money, 300 bucks a person, right?
That she was able to pass out.
It's 300 bucks.
You want to talk corruption, but I'm sorry, it's not corruption to uh point out any of this uh at uh Maxine Waters is racist.
I'm sorry, but we'll be back.
Stay with us.
Maxine Waters' husband Sidney Williams, he was a linebacker for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
He also played on the Cleveland Browns championship team in 1964.
He now also, after he left football, he uh started as a business developer with ex-Cleveland Brown star Jim Brown's Black Economic Union in LA.
And now uh Sidney Williams owns a Mercedes dealership and obviously has an interest in a bank that his wife sent stimulus money to.
Uh he was also ambassador to the Bahamas under uh under Clinton.
By the way, folks, uh, it's not just Poland that we have turned our backs on.
It is Honduras, along with the Czech Republic.
Greta last night on Fox News had a big segment on, I think it was last night, uh, next week.
The Obama administration will allow Ahmadinizad, Castro, Hugo Chavez, Gaddafi, and several other international dictators into New York City to speak in front of the UN General Assembly.
Now, you're saying, wait a minute, Russia Obama can't let those people in.
I mean, they're coming to the UN diplomatic communities.
One country's president will not be allowed into the United States.
President Roberto Micheletti from Honduras will not be allowed to enter the United States of America.
His visa was revoked by the Obama administration in August.
He is the legal president of Honduras.
He was installed not in a coup, he's the legal press president.
So, for the first time, for the first time in our nation's history, the president of the United States is siding with Marxist communist leaders.
Hugo Chavez, Daniel Ortega, Raul Castro, Ivo Morales, in condemning our democratic freedom-fighting ally of Honduras.
Do not doubt me.
This man has a chip on his shoulder about this country.
It was unjust and it was immoral until he became president.
And now he's going to reverse all of what he considers to be unjust and immoral and illegitimate about this country.
Starting with our economy and redistributing as much wealth as he can, and next tearing down our defense establishment and our foreign policy posture.
Because to men like this and his allies and cronies, we're nothing but a bunch of imperialists.
We are five percent of the world's population, but we steal 25% of the world's resources.
We are causing poverty all over the world.
We ally with people who blow up other people.
We are just horrible.
Our nation, a horrible and rotten, and nothing redeeming about it, and that's why he runs around apologizing for it.
And that's why he's pulling us back.
And that the story we had yesterday, uh, in fact, it was in the uh the morning update today, International Institute for Strategic Studies, has issued a report that celebrates what they consider a weakened United States.
Clearly, says the report, the U.S. share of global power, however measured, is in decline.
Now that this place is in London.
And they say also that domestically Obama may have campaigned on the theme, yes, we can.
Internationally, he may increasingly have to argue, no, we can't.
And they praise Obama for recognizing there's only so much America can do to impose its views on others.
Well, the traditional view of America was one of freedom and liberty, neither of which can be imposed.
Unless you're a dictator or a terrorist leader, and then, of course, freedom for your people is considered an imposition.
America's difficulties to Iraq and Afghanistan have supposedly exposed the limits of our military power.
The financial meltdown has sapped our economic base, and we've lost traction dealing with Iran and the Middle East, and all these lefty think tanks are applauding this.
They're happy.
A weakened America is an improvement because, in their view, and Obama's, America has not been the solution to the world's problems.
America is the problem.
We'll be back.
Stay right where you are.
Okay, we are back.
I want to I want to finish this little riff here on the European think tanks being all giddy and happy with Obama weakening America.
We're no longer the power player that we were.
There's this guy named Robin Nibblett.
And he's head of Chatham House, which is another London think tank, and he says that the rise of power of the Chicoms, the re-emergence of the Soviets, and a European Union, which is laughable, has made it difficult for America to influence others.
Besides America's long been seen as the problem.
Climate change, financial crisis, Middle East policy.
Robin Nibblett says Obama's administration is far more frank about U.S. interdependence with the rest of the world, and that's a good thing.
They're loving the fact that Obama's tearing this country apart.
They love it.
They love a weakened America.
They love that the whole process of America is being seen as the problem here.
Now, Mr. Nibblet and the rest of you European leftist socialists, maybe a weakened America sounds good to you.
And maybe it sounds good to Obama and his cronies, but it does not sit well with non-liberal Americans.
We've been through this before.
And you know what the answer to a weakened America was?
Two words.
Ronaldus Magnus.
So don't start celebrating yet, Mr. Nibblett.
We are not done, not by a long shot.
And furthermore, Mr. Niblet.
Who is going to protect your little lily livered white butt when somebody has you in the crosshairs?
Who's always done it?
You guys over there haven't the ability to defend yourselves.
We have to clean up every mess you people start, and now we're not going to be able to.
We're not going to have the means, we're not going to have the wherewithal, and we're not going to have the policy.
So the next time you're in somebody's crosshairs, the next time Russia wants to cut off natural gas supplies to your area of the woods, uh, you got to deal with it on your own until we get rid of this administration and replace it with one that will rebuild America as a superpower, which is for the good of everyone on the planet.
By the way, I need to make a small correction.
I said that the administration announced a $1,700 a year tax increase with the Obama's cap and trade program, and I was wrong about that.
That was buried in an internal report that was found, it was discovered by the Conservative Free Enterprise Institute think tank with a Freedom of Information Act request.
Exactly right.
It was not dug out by our watchdog media.
The reason I got fooled on this is because I only saw the headline of this story, and the headline, administration announces or admits $1,700.
I thought they announced it.
I should not have been so foolish.
It took some digging.
All right, now let's let's return here to the subject of race.
What's really going on here's two things going on.
Well, there's multiple things going on.
Let me focus on three.
The first thing is that this is page one of the Democrat Party playbook, and they're replaying it, and they're doing this because they're losing on everything.
They're losing At everything.
This is a tantamount admission that they are in disarray and they're flummoxed as to what to do next.
What they're really trying to say is the whole conservative movement is racist.
That conservatism equals racism.
This is their point.
I mean, they could go out, and they do routinely.
They can trash black, brown, yellow conservatives day and night.
They're never accused of racism.
We question a president who is black, we're racists.
Automatically.
It was never said by the liberal media that attacks on Clarence Thomas were racist.
Or that attacks on Michael Steele were racist.
Or that attacks on Miguel Estrada or Gonzalez or Condoleezza Race, and on and on and on.
We're racist.
This is all manufactured.
It's intended to intimidate and distract, and I believe, I believe it's coming right out of Rama Manuel and David Axelrod's office.
And I think it's a tactic.
It's page one of the playbook.
And of course, the the press goes uh right along there.
Here the New York Times today.
As race debate grows, Obama steers clear of it.
B.S. He's behind it.
He's promoting it.
He is permitting it.
He is allowing it.
He likes it.
It's chaos.
It's distracting.
This is exactly what he wants.
And it's the same, his modus operandi since he's been in politics.
Obama has his hacks go out and do the dirty work while he pretends to be above it.
Just just the way Obama's hacks went after that Republican Senate nominee was Jack Ryan.
Something in Illinois try to take him out of the race while Obama played dumb and stay above the fray.
It had nothing to do with it.
So I just I saw this.
As race debate grows, Obama steers clear of it.
Yeah, what did he do?
He woke up and he said, Look, honey, look, Michelle, there's a race debate going out there.
This stuff preceded Carter.
Obama did nothing about it.
He declined to answer questions on it.
No, no, no, no.
He is promoting this.
He just as he is Acorn, just as he is Van John's, he is racism.
He is behind this.
It's his administration.
You can't, you cannot get away with the president of the United States saying above the fray, steering clear of it when the whole operation is orchestrated from his White House.
Let's go to the audio sound bites and listen to the Daily Stenographer pool, which is the state-controlled media.
It's a montage.
Yesterday, last night, and this morning, state-run media attacking me on race.
Rush Limbaugh.
Well, no, he says in Obama's America, white kids get beaten up by black kids.
Rush Limbaugh says Obama's nation is one where black kids can beat up white kids on the bus.
Rush Limbaugh was saying this is Obama's America, black kids beating up white kids on a bus.
Rush Limbaugh saying it is Mr. Obama who's playing the race card.
Obama's America, white kids getting beat up on school buses now.
Rush Limbaugh.
He talks about how race rules all in what he calls Obama's America.
I don't think we ought to let Rush Limbaugh's comments drive a conversation like this.
And then you have Rush Limbaugh and some of the other conservatives saying that it's whites who are being persecuted.
Rush Limbaugh was talking about this violent beating on a school bus.
You know, now that last voice was Kate Snow, and she actually called the office yesterday.
She called HR, and HR, chief of staff, said, You're missing the point.
This was this was cynicism.
This was sarcasm.
And what it was really about, what they've all left off of this, and I don't think they even know.
I think they get whatever their news sources, media matters, the slime pit, or maybe the Huffingkin Puffington Post, whatever it is.
But remember, folks, what drove all this yesterday, this is hilarious, was Newsweek.
Newsweek magazine saying that that uh uh we're we're born racist.
We're born racist.
Oh, yeah, it's right.
White white children, white children are born racist.
That's right.
Not all, not we, white kids are born racist.
And by six months, I mean they're they're able to distinguish black from white and yellow and brown, and they know to hate everybody.
And it says parents are uh that uh standstill.
I don't know what to do about it.
It's a newsweek story.
Newsweek Earlier this summer said we're all socialists.
Now they say all white kids, all white babies are racist.
I'm playing off of that.
Okay, it's Obama's America.
He is the president.
And it's all racism.
Everything is now in race.
So they're purposely getting this wrong, but it's funny to watch because it's so predictable.
Now here's Kate Snow.
Uh, who says, even if I was doing a send-up, even if I was being sarcastic, it's still racist.
Rush Limbaugh was talking about this violent beating on a school bus, what his producers call a send-up of Obama's post-racial America.
Obama's America, white kids getting beat up on school buses now, with the black kids cheering, yay, rad on rad-o, rad on rad on.
And of course they're big, oh the white kid deserved it.
He was born a racist.
He's white.
Limbaugh's assistant says his audience understands he was being sarcastic, but even conservatives are saying that kind of talk is dangerous.
Conservative columnist Rod Dreyer says lacking any leadership, the right is turning to media stars.
To be fair, any real racism is coming from a minority on the right.
Any criticism of an African American president's policies or statements or misstatements is racist, and that's it.
It's all a debate the White House would rather avoid.
Kate, Kate, no, the White House is behind it.
The White House is White House is pushing this.
But what does she know?
She's just a stenographer.
HR, how much time did you spend on the phone with Kate Snow yesterday?
Ten to twelve minutes.
Her report here was 44 seconds.
You spent 10 to 12 minutes and you I read the he sent me a summary of the phone call, as he is under orders to always do.
So I know what he told her.
He gave her every bit of context possible, and she still Well, maybe so, but I still racist.
It's still very ra just totally leaving out the whole newsweek aspect of this.
The whole send-up yesterday was mockery of the media, was mockery of Newsweek.
And of course, saying it's Obama's America.
Let's just say this, my friends.
Nobody better than I, Il Rushbo, at tweaking these schlubs.
Like I say, I know these people.
I know.
Why do why do they find why do they find Obama's America objectionable?
Um you really you need me to answer that?
Why why why does the media find it objectionable to say Obama's America?
Because it happens to be true.
And remember, the image was that none of this was going to happen.
All this was supposed to be over.
All this was supposed to have seen its last day.
There was to be comedy.
There was to be a joint holding of hands and singing kumbaya.
We were all going to be at love with one another and at one with one another in a figurative sense.
Uh in a new utopia.
And no partisanship and no arguments and no bickering, and no racism and no sexism and no bigotry and no homophobia.
And it's worse than ever.
It's all broken down because it's the design of this administration to create this kind of chaos.
And I tell you, there's a for the rest of you in the in the state controlled media, let me give you the daily tweak.
Let's just do this.
You know, we ought to come up with a feature, the daily state controlled media tweak.
Guaranteed to be used incorrectly, no matter how often and laboriously we spend time explaining it to them.
This charge of racism is being shouted out to give Obama cover for being a failure.
This is a this is a seminal point, folks.
In fact, this is a profundity.
The whole point here, or one of the big points.
He is a massive failure.
The libs are even writing this on the Huffing and Puffington Post.
And they're starting John Stewart starting to make fun of Acorn now and the media for ignoring it and not covering it.
Obama is clearly failing.
Which to us is good, but to the left, it's a panic sign.
So, remember now he's the one.
He can't fail.
It can't be him.
Oh no, it can't be his ideas.
It can't be his agenda.
It can't be his action.
No, no, no.
It has to be racism.
The only reason Obama's not succeeding.
The only reason is racism.
That's right, folks.
The only reason.
That's the message.
That's what they're doing.
It's cover.
They're in trouble when they play this card and they get the national hemorrhoid out there doubling down two days in a row on this theory.
They know they're in deep doo doo.
And at the end of the day, this is to just give Obama cover for not getting any of his promises done.
Well, he tried.
He really tried.
But you know, we're still a racist country.
Half the country, conservatism is just racist.
That's what's going on here.
And I'm just having more fun laughing at these inept fools who are so predictable.
Yeah, okay, that's the Daily Tweak.
We'll see how it gets picked up and reported.
You know what they'll do?
It's racism.
It's racist.
That's all you'll hear.
It's racism.
Conservatism is racism.
And they'll they'll they'll play that as though I am admitting.
The conservative that's what they'll do.
Mark my words.
We'll be back.
Sit tight, don't go away.
You know, I realize I might be confusing the state controlled media.
Because I I said that it was Orwellian.
You know what they're doing here.
And they may not know what Orwellian means, sort of like a fish doesn't know it's wet.
Have you ever thought about that?
A fish can't possibly know it's wet because it doesn't know what dry is until it's about to die, and then says, whoa, something's not right here.
Fish doesn't know it's wet.
And that's, I mean, a perfect description for some of the clueless brain-dead activity we've got disguised as journalism.
All right.
Obama staying above the racial fray.
Obama steering clear of the racial fray.
This morning in Maryland, the University of Maryland, a health care speech.
I said last week at the speech of the joint session.
If you misrepresent what's in our plan, we'll call you out.
We're gonna call you out.
I never said change would be easy.
Change is hard.
It's always been hard.
Civil rights was hard.
Oh, ho, ho, ho, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, just a second.
Ho ho ho!
Uh, sorry, whoa, whoa, whoa's.
Uh uh civil rights about race, right?
Just compared to health care plan to racism.
I really do apologize on a ho-ho-ho.
One of those things you can't say anymore.
Now, um, what was the biggest lie?
He since he mentioned the joint session speech.
What was the biggest lie Obama told during his speech to the joint session?
It's kind of tough to pick one out, isn't it?
Yeah, there is one, though.
I mean, there is.
No, no, no.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
No, none of that.
Not of the abortion, not the illegal immigration.
None of those are all lies.
The biggest lie told by our president was that he had a health care plan.
If he had a health care plan, then what is this Baucus bill?
This Baucus bill comes out of nowhere yesterday.
Obama gave his speech talking about his plan a week ago.
Why are we even discussing the Baucus bill?
What the hell is this?
Obama said he had a plan.
We were told by the president of the United States during a speech, a joint session of Congress that he had a health care plan, and he had a bill.
A magical health care bill, by the way, a bill that would guarantee health coverage for everybody except illegals.
And it would reduce costs, that it would improve coverage, and it wouldn't add a cent to the deficit, and nobody would have to pay any more than they're paying now.
So, what is this Bauchus plan?
What the hell's that?
Where the hell did that come from if Obama has a plan?
Now, was the president lying?
If not, where's the plan?
I want to see it.
I want to see it today, or the president should apologize to the American people for lying to us and the Congress.
Because folks, the joke's over.
The president had a plan, and yet this idiot Baucus comes out and announces his yesterday.
Now, if Obama's got a plan, what's Baucus doing?
Shouldn't Baucusa shut up because there already is a plan?
Look at here's what Obama said in his speech.
The plan I'm announcing tonight would mean three basic goals.
It goes on and on detailing his plan.
Yet we haven't seen it.
All we've got is this boncas debacle.
So forget the Baucus plan.
We're told the president has a plan.
We just want to see it.
Until we do, that's the biggest lie he told before joint session.
We have an update on the story out of Wichita yesterday, where the couple uh having a private, intimate moment in a dumpster, were robbed by two seasoned citizens who happen to get them in there.
Got a note here, Rush, I'm from Wichita.
The area around Waco where that dumpster is is notorious for its women of entrepreneurial spirit, so to speak.
It's reasonable to assume that the dumpster in question was really the lady's low-rent tax-free office.
