Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 podcast.
There aren't words for this.
Well, there are, but it just.
You imagine, folks, how big Obama's head is today.
I didn't think it could get any bigger.
But I think his head's now growing so big that his ears actually fit.
Live from the Southern Command in sunny South Florida.
It's open line Friday.
What a week.
What a week.
It's great to be with you, Rush Limbaugh.
Open Ryan Friday.

Wait, my volume's not loud enough.
I don't hear myself bullying up.
A um shocking announcement today from the National Football League, an announcement that has shocked the football world.
Commissioner Roger Goodell and the board at the National Football League have named the Kansas City Chiefs the winners of this season's Super Bowl, which will be played in February.
The NFL decided to reward the Chiefs for their good intentions at rebuilding a lackluster franchise.
Despite their 0-4 record, they have been proclaimed the winners of the Super Bowl yet to be played in 2009 in a related story.
Barack Obama has won the Nobel Prize for Economics now, as well as uh peace.
This for his job stimulus plan.
Uh it record and continuing massive job losses, which the rest of the elites in the Western world love to see.
Uh, and he is going to be rewarded for a second economics prize from the Nobel people next year for returning the nation's wealth to its rightful owners.
I I folks, I um I think the people who used to run the election board for Saddam Hussein's government were hired by the Nobel Committee here to uh tally the um the votes.
Reuters Reuters went out there, asked the Taliban and Hamas what they think.
Obama getting a peace.
I don't believe this.
He's not only the first post-racial president, he's also the nation's first post-accomplishment president.
He has risen above incompetence.
He's now judged on wishful thinking.
Gore, Carter, Obama.
Can you imagine can you imagine how ticked off Bill Clinton had to be today?
What I mean, the first gut reaction when he found out that this little man child in Chicago has not done diddly squat, got the peace prize, and Clinton's out there.
My God, I got my library massage parlor.
I even scored two million dollars stimulus money for that thing.
Did you see that yesterday, Limbaugh?
I got it.
I got my global uh fleeced people for billions and billions of dollars under the premise of world peace.
What I get slapped again, all because semen on a dress.
Hey, just have no respect.
Don't worry about it, Mr. President.
Your day is coming.
Gore Carter Obama soon Bill Clinton.
You see a pattern here, folks?
Liberal sellouts.
Liberal sellouts get this prize.
George Bush liberates 50 million Muslims.
Ronald Reagan liberates hundreds of millions of Europeans, saves parts of Latin America.
Any awards?
No, just derision.
Obama gives speeches trashing his own country.
And he gets a prize for it.
This actually makes total sense when you look at who the Nobel people are, these elite uh Norwegians, Europeans.
They love what Obama is doing.
And this fully exposes, folks, the illusion that is Obama.
This is a greater embarrassment than losing the Olympics bid was.
And with this award, and Obama got it right, he knows exactly why he was given this award.
The elites of the world are urging him, a man of peace, to not do the surge in Afghanistan.
They are urging him not to take on Iran.
That's what this if you want to get serious about it for a minute, is what this is really all about.
How can he now send 40,000 more troops to Afghanistan after that that cotton candy speech he just gave this morning, f of which we have sickening sound bites that I am going to make you listen to.
None of you will be allowed to turn off the radio.
None of you will be allowed to change stations.
I am gonna play excerpts of it, and everybody is gonna damn well listen to it right along with me.
You didn't do anything.
I just I'm not doing this alone anymore.
I'm I'm not this this is we're good.
We're in this together, we're in this together.
But the the Nobel Peace Prize just told Obama, look, we love what you're doing.
You are destroying your country as a superpower.
Keep it up, bud.
This is what we expected, and you're doing a damn good job.
There those are accomplishments, folks.
And in the eyes of the Nobel Peace Prize committee, these are the accomplishments they're looking for.
Um he's basically emasculating this country, and they applauded today with this award.
They love a weakened, neutered United States.
This is their way of promoting the concept.
And it's uh slam dunk.
I d uh here, let's let's just here's here's you know, I'm surprised that anybody in Norway is still alive there because Ultra ate it uh last week after losing the Olympic bid.
Maybe she vomited them back.
Obviously, here's the announcement this morning.
The Nobel Peace Prize for 2009 is to be awarded to President Barack Obama for his extraordinary efforts.
This is a hand grenade that's just been lobbed into U.S. domestic and foreign policy.
Domestic policy foreign policy.
They've just blown us up here, folks.
So here's Obama admitting he's not worthy, but he's gonna keep trying.
I am both surprised and deeply humbled.
You're not humbled by the decision of the Nobel Committee.
Let me be clear.
I do not view it as a recognition of my own accomplishments.
Uh-huh.
But rather as an affirmation of American leadership on behalf of aspirations held by people in all nations.
Except this one.
To be honest, uh, I do not feel that I deserve to be in the company of so many of the transformative figures who've been honored by this prize.
Then why did you accept it?
Here's uh.
Yeah, this gets 1.4 million dollars.
I think is it four is did I read it?
Is it four is it four, ten hundred dollars or one point four million dollars?
Yeah, it's I think it's I think I've read it right.
1.41,400,000.
That's put it in his stash for Detroit, because they're not gonna have enough there, right?
Um he's gonna accept the award because it'll give momentum for his cause.
Throughout history, the Nobel Peace Prize has not just been used to honor specific achievement, it's also been used as a means to give momentum to a set of causes.
And that is why I will accept this award as a call to action.
A call for all nations to confront the common challenges of the 21st century.
These challenges can't be met by any one leader or any one nation.
And that's why my administration's worked to establish a new era of engagement in which all nations must take responsibility for the world we seek.
By the way, uh they got hold of Obama's family over there at the uh in the in the Hut village, somewhere in Kenya, and they uh one of the family members was coming back with the day's water supply from the uh from the lake.
It's uh three miles away.
And uh, what do you think of uh old Barack winning the Peace Prize?
Obama's uncle said that uh told Reuters by telephone from the ancestral village.
Somebody, a reporter took a satellite phone in there because there's no phone service in the actual Obama homeland, the village of Kogelo, Western Kenya.
They said it's humbling for us as a family, and we share in uh Barack's honor, or we congratulate.
I think Obama's the second Kenyan to um uh win the prize.
I think that there's I've lost my place in the audio, so oh, there's uh there's uh was that it?
Was that the last of Obama?
Was that sound bite?
Oh, there's one more.
Oh, well, wonderful.
Play it.
I am the commander in chief of a country that's responsible for ending a war and working in another theater to confront a ruthless adversary that directly threatens the American people and our allies.
Right.
Hold on.
Stop.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
He's talking about Afghanistan there.
Working in another theater to confront a ruthless adversary that directly How can he confront a ruthless adversary as the winner of the peace prize?
He has been given the peace prize precisely so that he doesn't surge in Afghanistan, so that he doesn't take on Iran.
This man has his his ego is so huge, he doesn't understand why this has happened.
He says that he does.
Well, this is uh this is to give momentum to my agenda.
Yeah, but what his his agenda is uh is to weaken this country to remake it, and that's what he's been awarded for.
And I I th this this how can he how can he now uh protect us from ruthless enemy?
And I don't believe I've ever heard him say before uh that ruthless enemy directly threatens the American people and our allies.
Do you recall him ever talking about the Taliban in that way?
Who's he talking about?
Al Qaeda?
Well, Al Qaeda and a Taliban, you know, they're they're brothers and sisters.
Yeah, no, you know.
What I know, I know, I know.
He's out there, he said that the Taliban has a future in the uh in the rebuilding of uh Afghanistan.
All right, so anyway.
How how can he now add troops?
How can he ramp up military activity after getting the peace prize?
Which of course, you know this it Alfred Nobel was a dynamite maker.
That's what's hilarious of it.
He invented dynamite.
And he's gotta be and and Nobel, if you if you read his original intent for the Peace Prize, it was to go to people who actually pursued the elimination of standing armies.
No Bill was a kook.
Everybody thinks he's rolling over in his grave.
No, no, no, Bell, this could actually bring him back to life, folks.
We'll be back.
Stay with us.
Don't go up.
Uh my friends, look at the bright side here.
Uh the Nobel committee today just suicide bombed itself.
They destroyed themselves far more than we ever could with this with this award.
And it just it gets hilarious.
A top Democrat National Committee official reacted furiously uh today to a statement from Republican Party Chairman Michael Steele uh mocking and describing his unfortunate uh Obama's Nobel Peace Prize.
This is the statement from the DNC.
The Republican Party has thrown in its lot with the terrorists, a Taliban and Hamas this morning in criticizing the pre in criticizing the president for receiving a Nobel Peace Prize, DNC communications director Brad Woodhouse told Politico.
So maybe the ruthless enemies that Obama talked about that we are facing, and he's currently the Republican Party and conservatives.
Maybe he weren't even talking about Afghanistan.
Because the DNC now says Republicans have thrown in their lot with terrorists, Hamas.
And who?
Hamas and uh the Taliban.
As Obama says it.
Ladies and gentlemen, yesterday afternoon after the program, I uh I hot footed it over to the Breakers Hotel where I sat.
How long would that go, H.R. Yeah, a little over an hour interview with Jamie Gangell of the uh of the Today Show, NBC.
She's the wife of the uh noted author Daniel Silva.
And uh uh she'd been asking us to do this interview for what a year.
Uh over over a year, and I'd I I had said way back when, yeah, I'll do it.
But I'm not uh I don't I'm not gonna commit to it any time soon, but kept kept asking, he kept looking, I gotta do this because I said I would do it.
Went over there, sat down for a little over an hour, and yes, sternly I did the obligatory I mean the the entire formula was on display.
Uh The interview was formulaic.
I've done these.
I had a blast.
I gotta tell you, I had a ball doing this.
At one point, H.R. had to leave the room because he was laughing so loud.
And then the um then the uh the uh obligatory walk.
It wasn't on a beach, certainly.
I didn't go that far.
They have a beautiful sidewalk there at the breakers, that is the uh uh butts, the uh the the beach.
And uh yeah, I did the did the walk, and the question that she she asked me twice, asked me once inside in the sit-down portion of the interview, and then during the obligatory walk, she uh asked me if I was invited to go to the White House by President Obama would I go.
And she said, What would you say?
I'd say hello.
And uh I don't give it all away.
There it's gonna run in two parts uh Monday and Tuesday.
Now she told me that the Monday part's gonna run a 7 30 half hour.
It's gonna be the entire half hour.
Now, an entire half hour on the Today Show is about 14 minutes because they got it got to come out and you go, I'll joker and the weather, and then they gotta do the uh whatever news headlines there are, uh, and then they gotta talk to, you know, whatever fashion person uh is on that day with the latest fashions on uh Madison Avenue or wherever they are, and then they get to this.
And then the second part is Tuesday.
And I i it's just a shame they can't use the whole thing.
I mean, it was.
Oh, you are going to love this.
Well, and they teased it this morning.
And here's their tease.
This is how they promote it.
My audience for ratings.
I will admit it.
Let me let me shock the world right here on NBC.
I am doing my radio show for ratings.
I want the largest audience I can get because that's how I can charge the highest advertising rates, which means what else do I want?
Money.
Are you the leader of the Republican Party?
I am not the leader of the Republican Party.
Don't want to be the leader of the Republican Party.
It's silly for them to keep talking about how I'm the leader of anything.
It's just creating more curiosity about me.
He said 21 years more popular than ever.
Lord thank you for my enemies.
Well, he certainly says what he thinks.
And but it is unusual for him to sit down and do an interview like that because generally he leaves all his talking for his own airways.
I've got words for everybody.
I don't have to reserve them exclusively for this microphone.
My words fit any microphone.
Now, this business um of doing it for ratings.
I mean, 60 minutes asked me this.
Way back in uh 1990.
And of course, my whole answer, I'll uh I'll I'll put the whole answer here in context for you.
She said um uh asked me what you know what my priorities were, you know, how do I use my power?
I said, I don't think about my power.
I'm sure I have it, but I don't think about it.
I'm not trying to wield any power so you're doing it for ratings, as though it was an accusation, as though there's something immoral about succeeding in this business.
I mean, I said to her, yes, let me shock the world.
Let me admit it.
Let me get rid of the secret.
I'm doing this for ratings.
I'm doing this for money, too.
I went on and on.
I said, I said, if if I don't succeed in producing a profit every year, then I will have to fire my employees, and they'll go on welfare and have to depend on Obama for health care, and I simply wouldn't tolerate that.
So I continue to work very hard so I can pay the people who work with me.
I said, Do you think NBC's concerned about the stock price?
Are you having me on the show so your ratings go up on the Today Show?
Or are you just doing this because you're just doing it?
Do you want the NBC stock price to go up?
You want advertising rates at the Today Show go up?
You want to stay employed?
It was it was not being critical.
I'm not being critical of Jamie Gangell, because I had a great time.
Don't misunderstand here.
But the uh your critics say finally, after hearing that for four or five questions of who are they?
Name these people.
I don't have any critics.
Everybody that listens to me loves me.
I'm not controversial.
You're not controversial.
No, that's all I'm gonna say.
Uh give you a flavor for it.
Uh so it's Monday, 7.30 hour.
That's what they said.
Uh tevo the whole show, because that way you can see how standout this segment is compared to whatever else they do on uh on on the show.
No, not enough time to be fair with uh another caller.
I fully expect, by the way, the uh you know there's Obama Kool-Aid, and the kids in school are already drinking it.
You may not have seen it in the stores, but there is Obama Kool-Aid, and Obama Kool-Aid drinkers soon are going to be able to buy a new drink from the legendary Kool-Aid drinkmaker Barack Obama's Ego Juice.
Upon hearing the Nobel Peace Prize Committee's decision, Kool-Aid accelerated the introduction of a product already in the works, Barack Obama's Ego Juice, be available in stores everywhere this December in time for the president's footprint trip to Oslo to um accept it.
The school kids have already been test marketing the product.
Forced feedings of Obama's ego juice uh are going exceptionally well, and so the rollout timetable being moved up to December.
Folks, the Nobel Peace Prize, we owe them.
Our president has become a laughing stock.
They are telling jokes about Barack Obama even in state-controlled media.
ABC is assembling what they think are the funniest jokes that they're finding anywhere, from blogs to uh uh state-controlled media sources and so forth.
And it just it it's it's hilarious.
Everybody in the world is laughing except the Norwegians.
Everybody's laughing at our president.
You know, I am I'm a former nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize.
I was nominated last year, the year that Gore got the Peace Prize, official nominee.
I'm especially qualified to uh to comment on this.
I mean, I'm I'm much closer to having won a Nobel Peace Prize than any of you people are because I've actually been nominated.
So I think this is and by the way, when I was nominated, there wasn't any laughter.
No, there was no left.
There was anger and rage from certain sectors of this country, but there was no laughter.
Our president has won the peace prize, and he is a standing joke.
Stop and think meanwhile, his ego's so big his ears are starting to fit the head now.
You gotta think this guy is he's he's in the White House, he's in his cocoon, he's surrounded by Ram Emanuel of Ballerina.
He's surrounded by uh the that drip uh Gates, the uh Gibbs, the uh press secretary.
And and I'm sure they're telling themselves, oh, way to go, baby.
We are bigger than ever.
Who would have ever believed that?
Meanwhile, outside the Oval Office, everybody's laughing at this guy while he thinks he is the biggest human being to ever walk the planet.
In nine months, in nine months, he is a post-accomplishment, post-racial, post-partisan, now post-accomplishment.
You don't even have to accomplish anything to get the Nobel Peace Prize.
All you have to do is have good intentions.
And you know the libs are always rewarded on their good intentions, aren't they?
That's how they want to be judged.
Never on the results of those intentions, which are always disastrous.
But I just we couldn't have done this ourselves.
We could not have made the world laugh at our president.
But the Nobel Peace Prize Committee and their award have pulled it off.
We owe them a debt of gratitude.
There I mean, this this guy is gonna be joked about all over the media for this weekend.
They've set up the Sunday shows for this, and he goes out there and admits he's not qualified.
Grab that soundbite again.
I've put it at the bottom of the stack.
I'm gonna find it right here.
Uh soundbite number two.
He admits let's see.
Yeah, he admits it.
I am both surprised and deeply humbled by the decision of the Nobel Committee.
Could you speed this up?
I do not stop it.
I I it's it takes two.
This is 34 seconds, it seems like an hour.
Speed it up.
But rather as an affirmation of American leadership on behalf of aspirations held by people in all nations.
To be honest, uh, I do not feel that I deserve to be in the company of so many of the transformative figures who've been honored by this prize.
Oh, but you do, Mr. President, you are totally at home with the likes of Jimmy Carter and Al Gore and anybody else who's been running around.
I mean, he's in a club.
People who have received peace prizes, people like Yasser Arafat.
Ha.
What a club.
Wouldn't you want to be a member of that club?
I would have refused, by the way, had I won the award.
Because I wouldn't want to have I wouldn't want to be in that club of thugs.
Nah, that's that's true.
I would have I would have accepted it.
I'm just, I'm just I was up late last night.
I was like four.
Oh, yeah.
And I'm I'm I'm one of these giddy moods here today, folks.
So we usually throw caution to the wind.
We've we've expanded the delay to a full ninety seconds today, by the way, to accommodate something I might say that could be regretful.
To the phones, Suzanne in uh in Los Angeles.
Great to have you on the EIB network open line Friday.
You're up first.
Hello.
Good morning, Rush.
If the president actually s opened his fat mouth and said he does not deserve to be in the company of these figures, why is he accepting it?
And why doesn't he donate the money to charity?
Well, the uh because he's a jackass, that's why.
I don't know.
He doesn't deserve he hasn't done anything.
He has.
This is what you don't understand.
Okay, explain it to him.
I'm the the guy who has said this best today is John Pedoritz.
At uh a blog, I think he put his commentary, maybe contentions, I'm not sure what they have to.
But here, I'm gonna read it to you.
Okay.
It's contentions.
I can't agree with my colleagues here on contentions that a Obama should reject the Peace Prize, or B, be embarrassed by it.
The Nobel Committee chose him wisely because he does, in fact, represent the organization's highest ideals.
He is an American president queasy about the projection of American power.
He is an American president who rejects the notion of American exceptionalism.
He is an American president eagerly in pursuit of legitimacy to be granted him not by those who voted for him, but by those who do not cast a vote and who chafe at American leadership.
It is his devout wish that America become one of many nations influencing the world indirectly or not influencing it at all, rather than the indispensable nation, as Madeline Albright characterized it.
He is the encapsulation, the representative, the wish fulfillment, the very embodiment of the multilateralist impulse.
He is almost literally a dream come true for the sorts of people who treasure and value the Nobel Peace Prize.
It's the most obvious choice, once you think about it, since Michael Moore won an Oscar for bowling for combine.
You know, you made me queasy just hearing you read all of that.
Garbage.
It's not, you know, I'd rather see them give this prize to Michael Jackson for his work with children.
The President doesn't deserve this.
He actually doesn't deserve to be president.
But he ha I get tired of him apologizing, and the goals he set for the United States is exactly what?
Driving us to poverty, selling us off one dollar at a time to China.
That's precisely why.
That's precisely why he he's qualified for the prize.
This is what the Nobel people want.
This is what uh European uh leftist elites want.
This is what our enemies want.
This is what the United Nations want.
Is he gonna give this money to Reverend Wright to start a new church?
Well, no, here's the thing about the money.
Uh we looked it up.
It what is it, ten million Swedish kroners that you're thinking about a buck fifty?
Well, that's the see that's you are you are I mean, you're on a roll here today.
The ten by inspiration from the We looked it up.
Ten million Swedish kroners, uh, depending on in December when he gets the money, depending on how badly he continues to trash his own currency, the dollar, could be worth anywhere between 1.2 and 1.5 million dollars.
That will not even cover one of the 747s that will take him and his fleet of fellow egoists over there to accept the award.
I thought it might have covered the money he wasted going to Copenhagen.
Uh no.
Maybe he should give that to Daly in Chicago as an I'm sorry you didn't get the Olympics.
Now that's see, Daly's sitting there in Chicago saying, What the hell Happened to me.
I go over there to Copenhagen.
I bring Barack along.
He's my ace in the hole.
We're gonna get the Olympics.
I'm gonna be able to have some of my buds get rid of their slums like Valerie Jarrett.
I'm gonna have all kinds of people getting rich because of me.
I'm gonna be in power forever here.
And they get shut out with 18 votes in the first round, totally embarrassed.
Obama was a hindrance.
And then the very next week, in fact, exactly one week.
Do you realize it was just last Friday that that debacle in Copenhagen happened?
Today, Obama gets the peace prize, he gets the money, he gets the accolades, and Daly sitting there in Chicago saying, what the hell?
I keep thinking about this speech Obama gave today in the in the Rose Guard.
See he was surprised and humbled, he had no idea anyone nominated.
I don't believe that.
By the way, this story they put, I don't believe anything here.
Apparently, what happened?
Reporters first called Gibbs at six o'clock and apparently woke him up and said, hey Gibbs, what's the reaction to the president winning the Nobel Peace Prize?
And Gibbs said, What is this April Fools?
What happened?
Then Gibbs wakes up the president.
And the president tells us that his two dirt two girls came in and they brought the dog in.
It's Bo's birthday.
This is the same dog that dropped a load on Air Force One.
We learned about this yesterday.
Then the two girls came in, hey Daddy, uh, you won the Nobel Peace Prize.
Really cool.
It's a three-day weekend, Daddy.
Let's get up.
Let's go.
And Obama said, Yeah, it's really great to have kids to help you keep things in perspective.
And I it's, you know, that was I'm on the verge of wretching right there.
Then Obama gets to the meat of the matter, says he doesn't deserve the award.
So Obama, I mean, he's agreeing with the Taliban and us because we don't think he deserves the award, neither does the Taliban.
The Iranians are upset.
They don't I'll kite ahead and wade in, you know, Osama bin Laden, but there sure should be a tape before the uh before the weekend is out.
Now, here's the New York Times.
Barack Obama wins Nobel Peace Prize by Walter Gibbs and Alan Cole.
And listen to this paragraph.
As to whether the prize was given too early in Mr. Obama's uh presidency, peace be upon him, by the way, uh, we are not awarding the prize for what may happen in the future, but for what he has done in the previous year.
We would hope this will enhance what he's trying to do.
The prize committee said it wanted to enhance Obama's diplomatic efforts uh so far rather than anticipate events in the future.
Do you understand?
You've you've you've you've probably heard this.
Now, but uh we are not awarding the prize for what may happen in the future, but for what he's done in the previous year.
Now the voting began on November 1st.
That's when the votes were over, nominations are over.
The voting was November.
He had been in office something like 11 days.
February.
He'd been in office 11 days when the voting took place.
They just announced it today.
So February.
That's what I said.
I did don't tell me what I didn't say.
No, the voting is it's announced in November.
The voting takes place in February.
Did I not say okay?
I was up till four o'clock.
Thanks for helping me out here.
So anyway, the point here is that they they awarded him this on the basis of 11 days of work.
The stimulus bill hadn't even been passed.
So they were giving him an award for the campaign.
And it's Gitmo, all these things.
Well, but but he's out there saying that this will add to the momentum of his agenda.
And they're saying, no, no, no.
We are not awarding the prize for what may happen in the future, but for what he's done in the previous year, we would hope this will enhance what he's trying to do.
Barack Hussein Obama.
Peace be upon him.
We have a swine flu epidemic, at least the drive by us we do.
We're bombing the hell out of the moon.
The U.S. dollar is worth nothing.
Unemployment skyrocketing now near 10%.
We are in debt.
Our dollar Is worthless.
Taxes are going up everywhere.
They're about to let Obama become our universal doctor, banker, and employer.
Some of our kids are dying in foreign countries while Obama goes out for ice cream.
Our other kids are killing each other in the streets because they have no education and no hope for a future other than killing each other in the street.
We are about to move worldwide progress back to the cave era with the crap and tax plan.
The whole world would like to put a nuclear missile up our rectum, and apparently getting the means to do so, and this guy goes out and wins the peace prize.
Peace be upon him.
It's just a joke.
It is a joke.
Everybody in the world is laughing at our little president.
Peace be upon him.
Uh Darnell in Houston.
Darnell, thanks for uh waving your next and open line Friday.
Hello.
Hey, how are you doing, Russ?
Oh, Peachy Keene.
Thank you for continuing to shine the light on what's going on out there.
Somebody has to do it, sir, and I'm up to the task.
And everybody also out there knows it as well.
I got a question for you.
Sure, fire away.
All right.
Now that basically the Massaj has been lifted to Godhood.
Um sort of, you know, sitting on the third line now for the longest time.
Now that uh Obama's received this acclamation from the world, uh, just how much damage do you think this is going to do as far as uh pushing the agenda and agendas he hasn't even let people know about now.
Well, as I said at the uh at the top of the program, I I think what's happened here is that the committee has thrown a hand grenade right in the middle of our politics.
And they do this now and then, but this one's particularly insidious.
Because the message here, don't do the surge in Afghanistan, don't do anything in Iran, don't do anything that would make it look like you're not a man of peace.
This almost, the Nobel Peace Pride here's almost a straitjacket for Obama.
Not that he would see it that way, but for the rest of the world, threatened by evildoers, bad guys, and just plain little rotten creeps, and nobody to come to their aid anymore.
If Obama follows the tenets of the Peace Prize, if if he he's gonna accept it.
He did accept it.
That means uh he's he's gotta he's gotta be a man of peace, and the way the left defines man of peace is everybody else can have guns that we can't.
Everybody else can go to war, but we won't.
And even if we're attacked, we're gonna first try to find out why they don't like us.
And then we might respond, depending on whether the enemy holds up in civilian homes or some of the so he's he's kind of he's he's kind of sandwiched here.
This this was it it really is insidious, all humor aside, it really is insidious.
The intent of the Nobel Peace Prize Committee is to neuter the United States of America.
And they've done it in their minds by rewarding a pacifist, inexperienced young man with a five and a half minute career now.
Back after this.
Here's the the real issue, the bigger issue here is how the left-wing global elite is manipulating Obama from the United Nations to the Nobel Committee to uh capitals in Europe, and that's exactly what this award is.
It's an attempt to manipulate Obama to the detriment of the United States.
