Time Text
And we're back.
It's Rush Limbaugh, this, the Excellence in Broadcasting Network, and the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
We are in Los Angeles, but as long as I'm here, it doesn't really matter where here is.
Looking forward to talking to you for the fastest three hours of meeting.
I can't believe we're already into the third hour here.
I mean, it's just, it's going by lickety split.
800-282-2882 is the number if you want to be on the program, the email address, lrushbaugh at EIBNet.com.
Senate Majority Leader Dingy Harry gave Republicans his most direct warning to date that he is prepared to use a procedural maneuver to pass health care reform with a simple majority.
This is the old reconciliation route.
And he's going to, if Republicans don't come on board and join him on this and get him to 60 votes, they're going to say, hell with you, Republicans.
We're going to go reconciliation.
Do it.
The Republicans need get nowhere near any of this.
As we've been saying for months, let the Democrats own this.
The American people don't want it.
And like I said, Harry Reid, Obama, Pelosi, they don't give a damn on the thoughts of the American people.
They just want to ram something through to say they did.
They're building monuments to themselves.
Here's Obama last night, by the way.
He was on Letterman.
And now there's a story he's out playing basketball in New York this afternoon, playing hoops with his best guy friend, a guy named Reggie Love, out there playing basketball.
I thought he was formulating a new strategy on Afghanistan.
I thought he was the trooper question.
What are we going to do?
We need some more time here.
Out shooting hoops.
After warning the world that we're about dead because of climate change.
He's out shooting hoops and playing golf going on a letterman.
Here he is last night.
Letterman says, the stimulus, you're satisfied the level and degree that the stimulus has worked?
If it hadn't been for the stimulus, you probably would have seen an additional, say, million and a half jobs to 2 million jobs lost.
Or possibly even worse.
So it's definitely not.
Stop.
We've had almost 3 million jobs lost.
We're up to 9.7%.
Re-Q this, we're up to 9.7% unemployment.
With the stimulus.
He promised it wouldn't be any higher than 8%.
He's talking to a genuine idiot, David Letterman, trying to disguise himself as an informed American who happens to tell jokes.
So are you satisfied with the level and degree the stimulus worked?
And here comes the oft-repeated lie number 4,442 has said for the one gazillionth time, well, if we hadn't done it, why, I don't know how bad it would be.
If it hadn't been for the stimulus, you probably would have seen an additional, say, million and a half jobs to two million jobs lost, or possibly even worse.
So it's definitely worked as a tourniquet to stop the bleeding.
The one thing that I try to make sure the American people understand is that it took us years to get into the hold that we're in.
We took a bad hit.
We lost $5 trillion worth of wealth because of this crisis.
We're not going to recover overnight.
Unemployment is still going to be a big problem for at least another year.
Where do you go with this?
Where do you go with this?
We've got what is it?
4% of the stimulus has been spent.
It kicks in in earnest.
Next year happens to be an election year.
That's where a lot of the money is going to go.
Yet we've applied a tourniquet.
The bleeding has stopped.
Yeah, I guess that's why we're going to extend unemployment benefits again.
I guess that's why last month 42 states reported net job losses, up from 29 in July.
We got that tourniquet on there.
And we've reduced our carbon munitions emissions more in the first eight months of this year than at any time in our history.
And we've put a tourniquet on that economy.
We're going to have all kinds of competition in our health care plan.
This can't.
The American people are not going to accept this.
They're going to keep on.
They're going to keep on doing this, this media, the message business.
He's going to show up on television all the time too much.
There is going to be a backlash against this man and his policies and this administration.
The only question is when and if it will happen in time.
Here, Letterman then says, well, whenever you invoke like Great Britain or Canada, people start to shudder because, oh my God, it's socialized medicine.
Oh, my God, it's socialized medicine.
And I'm not a socialist, but it doesn't sound that bad to me, says Letterman, in full 100% doofus mode.
Letterman asked the question, and here's Obama's answer.
It doesn't sound bad to Canadians that they're perfectly happy with their system.
You've got every other advanced nation provides coverage for all of its folks.
When I talk to other world leaders who are paying attention to this argument, and they hear some of this stuff, and these are, in some cases, conservative leaders.
They're heads of center-right governments, and they don't understand why it is that Americans would not want to set up a system that would save them money over time, would work better, would make people healthier.
Uh, where do we start?
It doesn't sound bad to Canadians, and this doofus audience starts applauding to go along with a doofus host.
They're perfectly happy with their system.
They're not perfectly happy with it, nor are they happy with it in Great Britain.
And here comes the old Clinton argument.
Clinton used to, I go over there and I talk to these world leaders and they simply can't, for the life of them, they cannot understand why we haven't done what they've done.
And I keep trying to tell them, well, we're working hard.
It takes a lot of work to change things in America, big countries, so forth.
But they can't believe, and here's Obama doing the same thing.
They can't believe Americans wouldn't want to set up a system that would save them money.
Americans do want a system that would save them money.
Americans do want a system that would work better.
And it just isn't Obama's.
He's out there telling this doofus audience the American people do not want an improved health care system.
They do not want a cheaper health care system.
Because that's what he wants everybody to believe his is.
I'm going to ask this question that I asked yesterday.
I want you to stop and think about something.
Name for me a major government program in the modern era.
Say, let's go to the, including a 20th century.
Start with FDR.
Name one that has not exceeded cost projections, that is not in bankruptcy or near bankruptcy.
Name one that has saved money.
Name a government program that actually reduced taxes in order to make the program happen.
Name for me one instance where any major government program has accomplished its objective.
Name for me one government program, which in fact has destroyed many of the people that is trying to help.
And I can answer that.
That's almost all of them.
Name for me a government program that has not wreaked havoc on the people it wanted to help.
You can start with the war on poverty.
You can start with Social Security.
You can start with Medicare, Medicaid.
You can start with the Great Society.
You can start the Cash for Clunkers program.
You can start the Midnight Basketball, the cops for the whatever.
I don't care what the program is.
It doesn't work as advertised.
It costs much more than ever projected.
Taxes have always gone up to pay for them.
Why in the world, where is the sanity in believing that this magical plan is for the first time in modern American history going to lower taxes, going to lower costs, going to insure more people, going to squeeze the doctors and the insurance companies, and health coverage is going to get better?
Where is, it is insane to believe this.
Yet people have an endless faith in their government to make this happen.
When I talk to other world leaders, oh, you've got every other advanced nation providing coverage for all its folks.
Well, you know what?
We provide treatment for all of our folks.
You have a coverage all you want, but people in emergency medical situations get treated.
So this just lying through his teeth with a putz as a pawn and a puppet to facilitate it is just breathtaking.
And then there was this.
A couple of days ago, Jimmy Carter started talking about this behavior of speculating perhaps this unease or poor decorum was rooted in racism.
Is he on to something there or is it just something to talk about?
Well, first of all, I think it's important to realize that I was actually black before the election.
So really, this is true.
How long have you been a black man?
And so the American people, I think, gave me this extraordinary honor.
And that tells you, I think, a lot about where the country's at.
Now, he needs to do more of this, telling a joke about it, but he's kind of soft-peddling the notion, it's not about race.
They elected me.
How could they elect me if the country had these arguments based on race and so forth?
And Bill Clinton came out and said, hey, hey, you know what?
He's Jimmy Carter.
I don't know what he's talking about.
I mean, these same people that oppose Obama oppose me.
And I'm not black.
Not that I know of.
I don't know any black blood in my lineage, but I'm not black.
I don't look black.
And they still oppose me, so I don't think it has anything to do with race.
So that's, let's see, that's Obama in a small way.
That's Clinton in a major way have now undercut state-controlled media trying to make this and the Democrat Party all about race.
New York Times has reported that a sophisticated identity theft ring often sent a woman wearing wigs into bank branches to drain accounts.
The authorities said they were holding the woman at a federal detention center on a charge of conspiracy to commit bank fraud.
Now, this theft ring had hundreds of victims in D.C., Maryland, Virginia, Illinois, and elsewhere.
Ten people accused of belonging to the theft ring have been charged.
Other fugitives are being sought, according to authorities.
I don't know if it's the same ring, but don't forget the Federal Reserve chairman had his identity theft stolen.
He was ripped off.
He was swindled.
Fed chairman.
Now, nobody's going to stop all identity theft.
But when you see articles like this, the first thing I think about is lifelock and that there are still people who don't have it.
Especially in these challenging economic times, this is when identity theft crops up.
Cheap way for people to score money and things.
You're more vulnerable than ever during economic times like this.
And it's not necessary to risk taking chances with your money or your time or especially your reputation when you can have lifelock for just $10 a month.
I mean, actually, Life Lock's less than $10 a month because when you mention my name, El Rushbo, you're going to save an additional 10%.
There's a number to call here, 800-440-4833.
And use the offer code, the promo code Rush.
That's 800-440-4833, 440-4833 with an 800 in front of it.
Life lock.
As is the case with every one of our great sponsors, it works.
Ha, how are you?
Rush Limboy, emitting vocal vibrations, coast to coast, and having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have at the same time this afternoon in New York City at the UN.
Fox News reporter Eric Sean interviewed the Bolivian president Evo Morales.
He asked him, what do you think of President Obama?
President Obama, I expect, like any other president who is part of the UN, regardless of this debate about climate change, he has good observations, but no solutions.
We are convinced if we are to save humanity, it is important to save the planet Earth.
What hurts this planet is capitalism.
Well, there you have it.
And this is one of Obama's buddies.
What hurts this planet is capitalism.
What hurts this planet is the unequal distribution of capitalism.
Not enough nations have capitalism.
That's what hurts the world.
But for this guy, Evo Morales, why, Obama's not socialist enough for this guy.
Now, here's Clinton on Carter, Obama, and race.
Last night, Larry King alive, CNN.
King says, President Carter says racism is at the bottom of all this uproar.
What do you feel?
I believe that some of the right-wing extremists which oppose President Obama are also racially prejudiced and would prefer not to have an African-American president.
But I don't believe that all the people that oppose him on healthcare and all the conservatives are racist.
And I believe if he were white, every single person who opposes him now would be opposing him then.
Therefore, while I have devoted my life to getting rid of racism, I think this is a fight that my president and our party, this is when we need to win on the merits.
I'm going to throw up here.
I mean, this soundbite roster today has been, I can't handle this.
I walked in here feeling really good.
Now, I overslept.
I was up late last night.
I always come out here, and I have a lot of friends.
And a guy, you know what I got to do last night?
I go to a Monday night football party at William Shatner's house up in Studio City.
Great, great, great view up.
He's got this giant, he's got a bigger screen than I've got.
Now, it doesn't, no screen envy, but it doesn't look as good as mine.
But it's good.
It looks good.
But it's, I mean, the thing's huge.
He's got his own screening room, but of course he's in pictures.
And I met John Voigt last night.
And these guys are all Indianapolis fans, so I decided to pull for the Dolphins just to make it a fun night.
And I left shortly before the Colts went ahead with their final score because my intention was to go back to the hotel and stay on East Coast time and get to bed.
And I got back to the hotel and I fired up the iPhone.
It was all kinds of email stuff to deal with, distracting stuff.
So I had to deal with that.
And before I knew it, it was 1.30 or 2 o'clock in the morning here.
So, you know, and I can't set an alarm because I've taken my cochlear implant off.
So, and the sun doesn't come up early enough this time of year to wake me up.
So, I just normally go to bed and I wake up every hour out of fear I'm going to oversleep.
But for some reason, I woke up and I intended to leave the hotel at 5.30.
I woke up at 5.55.
Now, I've left instructions with the concierge.
If you don't see me in the lobby, in the driveway, you don't see me by six, get up there to wake me up.
So, it's 5.55.
I got out of bed, and of course, I'm not dressed.
I'm thinking, well, the first thing I got to do is find the phone and fire it up and send a text message to tell everybody I'm up.
So, I did.
Then I went about, you know, the preparatory routine in bathroom.
Then I find that the text message didn't go because of a weak AT ⁇ T signal.
So, I said, oh, no, I'm sitting here in the bathroom and somebody's going to walk in here and I'm not.
And it happened.
And I said, oh, geez.
So I hustle and bustle.
I get down.
We hit every red light possible coming in here.
But I was feeling really good because it was a great night, had a great plane trip out, everything hunky-dory, fine and dandy.
And then I get to this audio soundbite roster today, and I want to throw up everything I've heard is just destructive as it can be.
It's destructive to the American people.
It's insulting to the American people.
It is representative of a dramatic decline in the way we're being told to think, the way our culture is going, the way we're being raised.
I mean, that Newsweek story yesterday, the case for pulling the plug on Granny with the previous Newsweek cover being, your kid is a racist by the time he's six months old.
And now we got Bill Clinton.
Did you hear this?
Let me tell you something, Larry.
I believe some of those right-wing extremists which oppose President Obama are also racially prejudiced and would prefer not to have an African-American president.
He says that.
Then he says, I believe if he were white, every single person who opposed him now would be opposing him.
So what's this business of right-wing extremists out there who oppose him because of racial prejudice?
If everybody who opposes him now would be opposing him then.
Therefore, I've devoted my life to getting rid of racism.
Right.
You've devoted your life to getting rid of racism.
Your party has promoted racism.
Your party has done everything it can to divide people in this country.
I don't care if we're by race, by gender, by sex, by age.
That's how the Democrat Party survives.
This is a fight that my president, our party, we need to win in America.
These guys are doing everything they can to destroy every institution and tradition that defined this country's greatness.
I'm sitting here, and I know it's my job, but I'm earning it today because I want to throw up every soundbite I've played.
The only difference between a soundbite and a bag of manure is the bag.
You know, the human characteristic that rubs me the rawest is lying and then arrogant condescension.
And Obama is all three of those, and Bill Clinton is too.
And then you talk this Afghanistan on it where the general that he appointed says, it's 40,000 troops or we lose this in a year.
And Hillary Clinton comes out and says the general doesn't know what he's talking about.
Hillary Clinton, who we are led to believe once wanted to join the Marines or some branch in Chicago, but they wouldn't let her because she was a girl.
And that wasn't the reason.
The Army, the Marines do not have uniforms that fit that big an ass.
And they don't have, well, never mind.
They don't have boots that are the right size either.
And now we get to listen to Clinton say right-wing extremist.
is the guy who tried to blame me the Oklahoma City bombing.
All right, I've vented.
I can't wait to hit the golf ball this afternoon that ball is going to be Obama and Clinton combined.
I have a couple soundbites here I want to play for you.
Bill Clinton playing the race card on both sides.
Well, first to go back to January 26th of 2008, it's in Columbia, South Carolina, outside a polling voting station.
Clinton is speaking with reporters, and a reporter says to him, what does it say about Obama that it takes two of you to beat him?
Now, I'll guarantee you, Clinton hears that question and he starts seething inside.
You little pip squeak, you're nothing but a reporter here in South Carolina.
You're asking me, how come it takes two of us to beat that kid?
But that's not what he says.
You will remember this.
Maybe here's Clinton's answer.
Jesse Jackson won South Carolina twice in 84 and 88.
And he ran a good campaign, and Senator Obama's won a good campaign.
He's got a good kickback, everyone.
Now, I guarantee you, they got the name and address of that reporter after this.
That question, but he said, Jesse Jackson won South Carolina twice, 84 and 88.
That's Clinton playing the race card.
Well, of course he's winning here.
Hell, Jesse Jackson won the Democrat primary hill.
It's no big deal for a black guy to win the primary in South Carolina.
That's what he's saying.
And then he knew he'd said so.
So he had to start covering it up here with these faint praise of what a great campaign he's running.
Then Obama came back after that and said, and said, well, Clinton played the race card on me.
And so Clinton said, I didn't play the race cards.
The arguments about race.
Do you remember during the Democrat primary, the sole place where arguments about race were taking place was in the Democrat Party in the primaries.
It was the L.A. Times that gave us that column, The Magic Negro.
Now, here's Clinton playing a race card on the other side.
May of 1993, White House correspondence dinner, Clinton talks about me, and I had just defended Janet Reno, who was being really treated rudely by John Conyers during a committee hearing on the Waco invasion.
Do you like the way Rush took up for Janet Reno, the other night, on his program?
She only did it because she was attacked by a black guy.
There was Bill Clinton out there saying, well, his party has done everything it can to rid this country of its racial problems.
And it's just the exact opposite.
Tony Blankley had an absolute great rant.
It was on a program called Left, Right, and Center.
And he was asked by the host about the coarsening of our culture.
And I'm going to summarize what Tony Blankly said.
Because the host says, well, I mean, look at all the coarseness of the culture that's going on with all these people making pictures of Obama as Hitler and blah, blah, blah.
You know, you've heard all this stuff.
And Blankley said, well, the Democrats call people showing up at town halls an unruly mob.
Then Harry Reid called them evil.
And Stenny Hoyer call them un-American.
Then Pelosi call them Nazis.
Then Obama called them liars.
And then Pelosi suggested that they're assassins waiting and lurking out there.
And the left guy on this program then cites three or four outrageous signs people are carrying at a town hall meeting.
And Blankley said, you know, you're showing me people at a town hall meeting.
You're showing me people at a congressman's office or outside some government building holding a sign.
I'm talking about the highest officers in our government calling over half the American people a mob, evil un-American, Nazis, liars, and assassins.
And that's exactly right.
Now, got to hear Calypso Louie, Calypso Louie, all happy that Muammar Gaddafi is in town.
He's on the Al Sharpton Show.
This is another show that has no listeners.
And so if I don't play this, you would never hear it.
But you got to hear it.
Calypso Louie on the Al Sharpton Show talking about the arrival of Muammar Gaddafi.
Brother leader Muammar Gaddafi, along with many, many other African, European, and Asian, and Latin American and Caribbean heads of state, are going to be visiting the UN and the United States.
We have had a very long and fruitful friendship almost for the whole 40 years of his leadership of the Libyan Arab Jamairiya.
We wanted to come into New York and say to our brother, welcome to the United States of America and welcome to New York City.
Well, there you have it.
Calypso Louie, who voted for Barack Obama, who voted for Bill Clinton, who votes for every Democrat, can't wait to welcome Brother Muammar Gaddafi into town on the Al Sharpton Show.
Al Sharpton then says, understand, Minister Farrakhan, that Colonel Qaddafi will be addressing the United Nations.
And I saw in the interview in the Amsterdam newspaper that you don't know exactly what he's going to say, but you think it'll be historic.
Well, you know, Brother Qaddafi has been on the terrorist watch list for the United States for a long, long time.
And this country and others have put sanctions.
Speed this up.
I don't want to have to listen to that.
And Libya.
And his country worked.
No, I mean to be being heard.
I don't care what he's saying.
Brother Gaddafi has their way out of those sanctions.
And this year, Libya is a part of the Security Council.
Oh, yeah.
And it will be a Libyan diplomat that will head up the General Assembly.
And so, Brother Muammar Gaddafi is coming to America to deliver a message.
Thank you for speeding it up so it would end sooner.
Back to the phones.
This show today has been work.
This show has been a challenge to my normal Ebootians.
My normal, great, festive, cheery, good mood.
This has been a direct challenge.
Cookie, who puts the roster together, she's profusely apologized.
Not your fault, Cookie.
It's what's out there.
I mean, it is what it is.
Gary in Findley, Ohio.
Thank you for waving your next on the EIB network.
Hi.
What a bunch of jackasses dittos, Rush.
Sum for five, Professor.
That's right.
Obama is a jackass.
I tell you, Rush, my main point, the reason I called was I wanted your opinion, slash, what you thought the founders would think of.
Now, we're going to have National Health Care, and we're going to have Captain Tax.
That's anywhere from the rough estimate from $3 to $10,000 out of my pocket again, because any raise I got in the last five years or for the next projected anything, because my union knucklehead little collectivist, it's gone.
I lost $17,000 in the market, and I'm just kind of trying to wait it out.
But I just wanted your opinion, sir.
I respect you, and I listened to you from the beginning, brother, because I'm a real Indian from Russia.
Well, I appreciate that very much.
I can only answer this honestly.
If you think that all that's going to get swallowed up is your raise, is your raises.
You are short-sighted.
Your future will be swallowed up.
The opportunity for prosperity of your children is being swallowed up.
Money they haven't even earned is being spent.
Not even taxed, just spent.
So it's much more than just your raises.
But the numbers you gave me, yeah, you got to have a health care plan.
If you don't, you're going to get fined.
A cap and tax is going to raise your electricity bill, all of these things, the cost of living, and there will be middle-class tax increases all across the board in a number of ways.
Healthcare is going to be more expensive, despite what they say.
So, yeah, it's going to eat up the numbers that you gave me.
But it's also going to prevent you from getting ahead or even getting even because more of what you earn is going to be taken from you.
And which, by the way, is the plan.
Let me take a quick break here.
We'll do that and be back and continue in just a moment.
Don't go away.
You know, I sit here and I am literally stunned at all of the lives we have improved over the course of 21 years on this program and all the money that we have saved people.
Genuinely, we talk about saving money and reducing your costs, and it happens, unlike the Obama administration.
Now, Barney Frank was on the Jay Leno show last night.
I am going to be on the Jay Leno show Thursday night.
After I appear on the couch, I'm going to drive their little electric car around the track and run over as many pop-ups of Al Gore at a five-second penalty for each hit that I can.
So last night, Leno asked Barney Frank, the banking queen, if you had to have dinner with one of the following political conservatives, which one would you choose?
Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, or Ann Coulter.
He would come with the painkillers.
Let's start it from the top so people can actually hear the answer.
I'll read the question again: If you had to have dinner with one of the following political conservatives, which one would you choose, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, or Ann Coulter?
I guess of the three, I would take Rush Limbaugh because it would be very painful and he would come with the painkillers, which he always had.
My first thought was to ignore this and turn the other cheek, but maybe that's what Barney wants.
So I decided to go ahead and use the bite.
And then it got even better.
Leno said the last time you went skinny dipping, when was that?
But now let's conjure that image.
Here's Barney Frank, who gave us the subprime housing crisis.
Here's his answer: I was in Palm Springs in a very private pool.
My boyfriend and I were out there.
I was doing a fundraiser, and it was a very secluded spot, and we didn't see any helicopters, so we went into the pool.
And hopefully, there are no photos.
Well, no, I hope there aren't.
Maybe of him, it wouldn't be so bad.
And they want to tell me that I am engaging in the coarsening of the culture, and yet here is NBC, the Leno show, presenting an image of Barney Frank skippy dimming, skinny dipping in a pool in Palm Springs.
And I guarantee everybody in Palm Springs is trying to find out which pool so they can avoid it.
All right, this next story I absolutely love.
It's from CNN.
Headline: Report shows that state gaming revenue fell as the economy slumped, raising concerns for states betting big on casino and lottery income.
So, lotteries, casinos, remember, oh, yeah, that's how we're going to pay for education.
We're going to solve all of our state's money problems.
All we're going to do is have casino gambling and lotteries.
Libs answer now that that's bombing out.
The decline in gambling revenue is a red flag for states planning to expand gambling activities to help pay for social services.
The decline comes as the economy struggles to recover from one of our longest recessions on record.
Oh, woe is us.
Everybody wringing their hands over declining revenue.
So, what are the Libs going to come up with next?
They're going to tax sodas and sweet beverages and so forth, hot dogs.
If people have no jobs and no money, there's no revenue that people can tax.
Why is this so tricky to understand?
Why is it not understood by these people that if you really want to generate revenue, you got to get people working?
I just maybe what's troubling me today is I'm just I feel like I'm surrounded by total, helpless, uncorrectable stupidity.
And it happens to be running the show, the government, not the show, just the exact opposite is running the show.
Joe in Birmingham, Alabama.
Welcome to the EIB Network.
Hello.
I think you made a good decision not turning the other cheek around Barney Frank.
Well, people said I should ignore it, you know, but that'd be turning the other cheek, which is what he would like.
Hey, I know you've had a tough time with the soundbite roster today, but I heard something on there that might make you grin a little bit.
Told the screener Obama might have stumbled into something where he was right and probably doesn't know it.
You know, he talked about on the Letterman show about the stimulus being a tourniquet.
If I remember from my Boy Scout first aid training, you put a tourniquet on to stop the bleeding, yes, but you also know when you put it on, you're probably going to lose the appendage that's attached to it.
Well, that's it.
A tourniquet exactly right.
The tourniquet equals death of something.
And so if we have to apply a tourniquet to our economy, if that's what Obama says, and I've had some people email me that point.
And I guess I can agree with it.
All right.
Do we have time?
Let's see.
Yeah, Jeff in Buffalo.
I got about less than a minute, but I wanted to get you on here.
It's not her, Mr. Limbaugh.
Hello?
Oh, hi.
How are you?
Yes.
Good, good, Rush.
Snyder.
I wanted to comment on the lack of class shown by President Obama on asking Governor Patterson here in New York to basically withdraw from the next election.
I thought it was in really, really poor taste.
Showed a lack of class.
I mean, there's no doubt that he's a complete failure.
But I think it really, President Obama over there.
I know, you know, a lot of Democrats, a lot of Democrats in New York are saying, hey, keep your mitts out of our state, Obama.
You're a bad enough job running the country.
It's a good point.
It was a diss at Patterson.
Now, folks, look, I'm getting all kinds of grief for playing this Barney Frank soundbite.
It doesn't bother me, folks.
It goes in one ear and out another orifice.
Don't worry about it.
Well, if this doesn't just put the cherry on the top of whatever, morning update I have to do next, right after the program ends, and it's about the national hemorrhoid, Jimmy Carter.
So even when the program expires, I don't get away from this.
