Time Text
Well, it's the first election loss for President Obama since he was immaculated.
The Afghanistan election.
The runoff has been canceled because Abdullah Abdullah backed out.
He claimed that the election was not going to be fair.
He couldn't be promised the rules would be kept, so he quit.
Obama's candidate out.
John Kerry's candidate out.
The excuse for dithering in Afghanistan is gone.
Now Obama is going to call Harmad Karzai and offer congratulations and so forth.
This was James Carville's candidacy, by the way, the Abdullah Abdullah Carvel actually went over there for a time and ran that campaign.
And so this is the first Obama election loss.
Tomorrow there will be a couple, maybe three more, uh, that he will have to endure.
Greetings, welcome back.
It's Rush Limbaugh.
This the EIB network, the Limbaugh Institute for advanced conservative studies.
Snerdley just told me during the uh top of the hour break that we had what he thought might have been one of the all-time best calls, and the guy didn't hang on.
Now a guy just got out of prison.
He's been in prison for seven years.
What was he in prison for?
Give me selling crystal meth, arson, grand larceny.
Oh, but just it went on and on and on.
Uh rap sheet long enough, seven years in a slammer, just got out.
He said he was watching Fox News Sunday yesterday.
And when Chris Wallace asked me if I was worth or if anybody was worth 400 million dollars.
This guy said he had an awakening.
When he heard my answer.
He had an awakening.
For the first time, he understood capitalism.
And for the first time, he understood that it was him who determined what his worth was, not somebody else.
And it's true for everybody.
You determine what you're worth, and you're worth what somebody will pay you.
Whatever it is, once the market, employer, a partner, whatever pays you, uh, that's what you're worth.
You'll take what you're worth.
You'll fight for what you think you're worth.
Many people are worth far more than they know.
And that was this guy's awakening.
So given that, let's listen to some uh uh uh sound bites from my appearance on Fox News Sunday yesterday.
The whole thing is posted at Rush Limbaugh.com, and there's even uh uh parts of the interview that didn't air.
Uh I think it went twenty-five minutes, but they overshot some video just in case.
Uh they wanted to go longer, and they put what didn't air up on their website, which we have also linked to at Rush Limbaugh.com.
So here the first question, uh, right out of the box.
This week it'll be one year since Obama was elected.
In that time, what's he done for and to the country?
I think it's all two.
I don't think there's any four.
Uh I'm Chris.
I'm I'm really, really worried.
We've never seen this kind of radical leadership at such a high level of power in the uh in the country.
I believe that the economy is under siege, is being destroyed.
Anybody with any economic literacy would not do one thing this administration's done to try to revitalize the private sector.
They're destroying it.
And I have to think that it may be on purpose, because this is just outrageous what is happening.
The denial of liberty, an attack on freedom.
I mean, just a couple days ago, they talked about these 650,000 jobs that they've created or saved.
There's no such thing as a saved job.
Besides that, they've destroyed jobs.
They've lost 3.3 million jobs in this country since Obama's stimulus plan, and it's gonna get worse.
Yeah, and so last week he'd saved or created a million jobs, 650,000 jobs.
Today can convenes a meeting with his economic recovery advisory board uh to talk about what they can do to start getting job growth.
So last week we saved or created a hundred thousand or six hundred and fifty thousand, maybe a million jobs.
Now that was last week, done with FEMI got a new week, we have a new template.
Obama working hard for you to create more jobs.
He hasn't saved or created anything.
Um this next sound bite is one of the two or three things in the interview that's really ticked off the media and uh a lot of uh people in the Obama administration that you now have taken to calling Mr. Obama the man-child president.
Right.
What does that mean?
He's immature.
He's a child.
I think he's he's Got a uh a five-minute career.
He was in the Senate for 150 days.
He was a community organizer in Chicago for however number of years.
He really has no experience running anything.
He's very young.
I think he's got an out of this world ego.
I think he's very narcissistic, and he's uh able to focus all attention on him all the time.
That description is simply a way to cut through the noise and say he's immature, inexperienced, in over his head.
This next answer, Wallace, Chris Wallace seemed a little surprised by.
Let's talk about a couple of big issues the president's dealing with.
Now, first of all, Afghanistan, you suggest that he's taking all of this time to decide what to do in Afghanistan to keep his left wing base on board for health care reform.
Well, it's partly that, but I also don't think he cares much about it.
I think once I no, see, this is I I know this is gonna sound uh controversial, but I don't think he cares that if he Chris, if he cared about, we've got soldiers and their families worrying about what we're gonna do.
The general on the ground said we need some more troops.
The policy that he implemented in March he now doesn't like and is trying to figure out how best to uh make everybody happy here politically on his side of the aisle and also for his image.
You know, Democrats have a tendency to be seen as weak on defense, so he's he's battling with that.
But again, if he cared about victory, remember he said about Afghanistan, victory is not something he's comfortable with.
The concept it reminds him of the Japanese surrendering on the USS Missouri.
It made him very uncomfortable.
He wants to manage this rather than achieve victory.
He says these things.
I don't know if people actually listen and have them register when he does.
But I hear them.
And I don't believe what I hear.
It's just remark the the the fact that he says I don't I'm not comfortable with the concept of victory.
Uh people I I think I'm the only one that remembered that.
Uh now here's the next question.
You you say you don't know that he really cares.
Do you at least give him credit for going to Dover to honor the remains of soldiers, dead soldiers who came back from Afghanistan?
The politically correct thing to say here would be, oh, yes, I am very impressed that President Obama decided to uh go show his concern for the remains troops who've given their lives for freedom in this country.
It was a photo op.
It was a photo op precisely because he's having big time trouble on this whole Afghanistan dithering situation.
He found one family that would allow photos to be taken.
None of the others did.
Throughout the Iraq War, it was Barack Obama and the Democrat Party which actively sought the defeat of the U.S. military.
They convened hearings and accused General Petraeus of lying.
They said the surge would not work.
Harry Reid stands up, waves the white flag.
This war is lost.
Jack Mertha is out saying our Marines at Hadith are guilty of rape.
John Kerry is accusing our Marines of committing terrorism acts by going into the homes of Iraqis at midnight in the dark, terrorizing, looking for Al Qaeda or whoever was there.
Yeah, I mean, look, I hate to be honest with you here, but I do question their commitment to national security.
I question their commitment to the U.S. military.
They'll put their political survival and their political power being gained over anything else.
They'll use anybody and throw anybody away in order to achieve it.
And one more.
Chris Wallace, you've made no secret of the fact that you oppose the public option, government-run health insurance, to compete with private insurers.
With tens of millions of Americans still uninsured, do you think the government has any moral obligation to find some way to cover them?
There is a way to insure the uninsured without doing any of what we're doing.
If that were the objective, then I'd be full for it.
This is not about insuring the uninsured.
This is not about health care.
This is about stealing one-sixth of the U.S. private sector and putting it under the control of federal government.
And when they get this health care bill, if they do, that's the easiest, fastest way for them to be able to regulate every aspect of human behavior.
Because it'll all have some related cost to health care.
What you drive, what you eat, where you live, what you do.
And there'll be penalties for violating regulation.
It's going to be the biggest snatch of freedom and liberty that has yet occurred in this country.
A brief timeout.
We'll be back.
800-282-2882 when we go to the phone.
Sit tight, folks.
We are back.
El Rushmore.
Kicking off a brand new week of broadcast excellence.
We we now have audio of uh former Vice President Biden, at least as he was referred to by CNN.
He's up at a rally uh in Watertown, New York, New York 23 for Bill Owens.
And by the way, I have a question.
They keep calling Didi Skazefava a moderate Republican.
What is it going to take?
What is it going to take for an for any of these networks to define a candidate as liberal?
Are there any liberal Republicans?
Or are they all moderates and centrists when they trash conservatives and conservatism?
For crying out loud, she has endorsed the liberal Democrat.
And she was more liberal than the Democrat.
There was nothing moderate about Didi Skazafava.
I think I think when the media looks at Republicans, they automatically, if a Republican is pro-choice, i.e., for abortion, that's what makes them moderates.
Anything else is ignored.
Whatever else they do, they can be a for tax cuts and all, but if they are pro-abortion, the media loves them and calls them moderates.
And that's it's just infuriating.
Dee Dee Skazefava is as left-wing radical as Obama and his crowd.
Moderate Republican.
Anyway, here's Biden.
It's not a cheap microphone.
It figures in this uh in this rally up there for Owens.
We have two soundbites.
The views that he's embracing, or at least the views of the people who have embraced him and made him the poster boy for.
In fact, imagine him being able to, if he were to win this election, take issue with any position Rush Limbaugh took.
Or take issue.
I'm sure I'm being serious about this.
I'm being deadly earnest about it.
What is he saying?
Does anybody have any idea what he's saying?
Let me read it here.
Uh the views that he's embracing.
He's talking about Hoffman here, or at least the views of the people who have embraced him and made him the poster boy for, in fact, imagine him being able to, if he were to win this election, take issue with any position Rush Limbaugh took.
Does that mean disagree with me?
Well when you take issue with somebody, here's who disagree with them.
Is that what he means?
Or is he trying to say he's a sick offend of Limboy?
He's going to give us what Limbaugh believes.
I think that's what he meant to say, but it just didn't come out right.
Or take issue.
I mean, I'm being serious about this.
I'm being that means he lost his train of thought.
He had no idea what he was saying.
We have no idea what he was saying.
And when that happens to Biden, who always goes with the I'm serious about this, I'm being deadly citizen, serious and honest about it, because he's lost his train of thought, has no idea what he's talking.
Just had to get my name out there because he thinks my name will rally pro-democrat turnout.
And he wasn't finished.
By the way, I like her.
I really do.
Not a joke.
This is not a it's not a cheap shot.
The fact of the matter is Sarah Palin thinks the answer to energy was drill baby drill.
No, for a joke, it's a lot more complicated, Sarah, than drill baby drill.
What chance do we have?
Well, look, let me quote, let me make this point.
I know what these guys are against.
I know what Bill's opponent against.
I know what Rush Limbaugh's against.
I know what Dick Army's against.
I know what all these folks are against.
I'm not being a wise guy, but I don't know what they're for.
Ah, Joe, that's just you know it's amazing how uh devoid of any substance these people are.
They know exactly what we're for, and they oppose it to the hilt.
We are for liberty and freedom, a colorblind society.
We for economic growth, we are for tax cuts, smaller government.
He knows exactly what we're for, and our agenda is based on optimism and good cheer, and having a positive, loving attitude about American exceptionalism and all the people who live and work here and make this country work.
These people, like Biden and his party, look down on the American people with contempt.
They are not happy in their personal lives.
They look out over the American landscape and they see nothing but suffering.
They see nothing but soup lines, they see nothing but people being uh uh malcontents, they don't see anything uplifting.
They've created this disaster that is now the United States economy.
They are stealing from it and incorporating their theft into the private sector.
Well, Pelosi's health Care bill is just a giant theft of the private sector via taxation and control doesn't know what we are for.
They damn well do know what we are for, and they are scared to death of it.
Because what we're for, and if we succeed, if we are ever victorious, then it means more and more people are going to be freed from the yoke of control of the Democrat Party, because we are for individual liberty, entrepreneurism, and freedom.
We want people to realize their dreams.
We want people to have dreams.
We want people to exercise their ambition and use whatever talent and effort they want to become who and what they want to be.
We don't want to put anybody down.
We don't want to conclude anybody is incapable of anything.
It's just the exact opposite.
The differences could not be more stark.
What we are against is precisely what is happening now under the guise of an agenda to rebuild the United States economy.
All right, to the Fawns is promised to Ames, Iowa.
Troy, you're up.
I'm glad you waited.
Appreciate your patience.
No worries, Rush.
Uh, I'm glad to be on.
I've tried most times to get on the network, and this is definitely my first time on.
I appreciate that.
Um my question for you is this.
Um I believe that uh the Democratic Party does really well attacking uh well, not attacking, but influence my age group using these entertainers.
And uh I was wondering what the Republican Party can do to start influencing these young voters to get out there and vote Republican.
Uh well, that's a good question.
It's one of the things that the the uh the Democrat Party, liberalism owns the entertainment culture in this country.
I mean, you go look at most movies, listen to most songs, particularly in a hip hop arena, turn on the video music channels and so forth.
Uh Saturday Night Live, doesn't matter.
Conservatism Republicans are routinely impugned, laughed at, made fun of.
Um and it even happens in schools, and I would consider schools to be part of the pop culture, uh, because clearly people in school are not being educated like you and I were.
So what the Republicans can do about it is is a um is an interesting thing.
I I it it's it's a good question.
It's it's one of the elements, it's it's like uh trying to get hold of education uh and turn that around.
Getting hold of the pop culture is gonna be something that's uh that's key.
What snurderly?
What?
Hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Well, Mr. Snerdley asked a question.
How come so many youth listen to me?
Because I'm cool, as I'm hip.
Because it's a good show.
And because they love learning.
They love learning.
And uh that's that's so we're doing okay on the youth front on this program.
The Republican Party, you know, they're they're too busy trying to make sure they save candidates like Didi Skazafava.
Uh and so forth.
Uh the before the Republican Party can get their arms around the pop culture, they're gonna have to figure out who they are.
Appreciate the call, Troy.
This is Todd in Mesa, Arizona.
You're next to the Rush Limbaugh program.
Hi.
Thank you for thank you, Rush, for taking my call.
Listen, I I donated to Joe Wilson.
Newt Genrich sends me emails wanting me to donate to the Republican Party.
No, thank you, Newt Genrich, because Newt Genrich, I'm so disappointed in you.
You're not for gay rights.
You're not for higher taxes.
You're not for anything that the lady in the 23rd district is for, and yet you came out and supported her.
Am I right in disowning Mr. Newt Genrich, sir?
Well, that's uh the decision for you to make, and I think a lot of people uh are uh upset.
You know, I think Newt got caught flat footed.
He was trying to be a loyal party soldier here.
Uh probably didn't know much about Skazefava and and believe the local party organization up in the district.
Uh because the it it the uh if if it was an informed decision, it doesn't make any sense.
If it was an informed decision to endorse it, it doesn't because this woman is the antithesis of what Newt Gingrich stands for, believes in.
And I'm a little in Russia, I'm a little bit disappointed, and one of the uh right-wing talk show hosts who has a TV show, has never con has never can uh said anything bad about Newt Genrich on this.
I know they're personal friends, but still don't be a phony about it.
It's not good.
Well, you um it's one of the dangers of getting close to people that you comment on.
Uh that's it's one of the uh it's it's it's why I you know don't go to Washington.
It's why I I I really uh I don't I don't hitch my wagon to politicians.
Look, I'm they've come and gone uh in the twenty-one years I'm still here.
You know that they can say first time I ever got through.
I want to thank you for taking my call again.
You bet.
Appreciate it.
David Meadow Lake, uh, New Mexico, is that right?
Or is that Minnesota?
No, it's Harron Lake.
Heron Lake, I'm sorry, Heron Lake.
I didn't have my glasses on.
Yeah, I'm a northern New Mexico.
Okay.
I'm worried about uh the influence that Egghorn could have on elections, and will the Democrats turn them loose on the elections that are going on tomorrow.
The problem with the uh Republican Party is they gotta get it rid of these uh clubhouse uh Republicans, you know, from uh these people that uh believe that they're better than the people below them.
They gotta get after these candidates, uh, maybe have a background check on who they're putting up for office.
Well, they know they know who they're putting.
Look at that they're they're putting up people like them.
This this is why I said the Republican Party needs to be, as Ronald Reagan said, retaken.
This is this isn't this is no time for third party movements, it really isn't.
But you mention the election fraud.
I tell you what, tomorrow's gonna be a dry run for Democrat mischief and malfeasance getting ready for 2010 and 2012.
Acorn, S E I. U, the new Black Panthers, they get their equivalent of the Super Bowl Tuesday.
I'll explain when we come back.
There is uh some interesting polling data.
Let's let's get to some of these races uh that are happening here.
I just um got a note from John Fund at the Wall Street Journal survey USA.
Independents are moving for Chris Christie at an unbelievable rate.
He was uh twelve points.
Uh yet 12% support from independence a month ago, he's got thirty point support today.
Uh that is the uh the big story.
Uh and Obama's health care is not helping Democrats uh with independence.
The it the independents are the ones moving away from health care.
The Republicans have never been on board health care.
It's the independents who are moving away from it once they learn uh what it's what it's all about.
Now, we often mention here public policy polling, a a lib group out of North Carolina, and that's why I mention them because they're Lib group.
Uh and and they you know they're the people that uh been asked by Democrat uh strategists all over the country to not publish poll results from various states because they look so bad for Democrats.
Here's some interesting facts from our unweighted numbers so far.
New York 23, they say really a mess in a three-way contest, Hoffman leads Owens by nineteen points.
In a two-way contest, Hoffman leads Owens by fifteen points.
So the Didi Scuzza Fava withdrawal and endorsement will probably tighten the race some, but not nearly enough.
Fifty-eight percent of Republicans think that Skazafava's a liberal, and that was obvious uh obviously before her endorsement yesterday.
The Rush Limbaugh effect, they're polling the Rush Limbaugh effect up there.
Hoffman has a 79-point lead with rush listeners, while Owens has a six-point lead with people who don't listen to the show.
Now that's interesting given that the new template up there is to say I handpicked this guy.
You know, Biden's up there saying it, and I'm sure everybody else up there that's uh that's campaigning for for uh Owens today's Hoffman, yeah, Limbaugh picked him.
Now they must have either some focus group data, some polling data that says mentioning my name is gonna really turn out Democrat voters.
Because apparently I'm so hated.
But if public policy polling is right here, Owens has a six-point lead with people who don't listen to the show.
That's not that big.
Not that big.
Seventy-nine per point lead with rush listeners while uh Owens has a six-point lead.
Uh now this is uh the day before, so that's it's outdated.
I'll forget that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm gonna get to the Super Bowl thing here in just a second.
Um I just love how the associated press is trying to spin all of these elections.
They have everything to do with Obama and his policies, whether the state controlled AP wants to admit it or not.
Analysis, elections could offer some clues.
Results could provide lessons for Democrats and Republicans before 2010.
President Obama isn't on the ballot.
Tell that to the Democrats in New Jersey.
You can't run around up there without seeing a sign with his name on it.
His name gets top billing over uh Corzine's.
And by the way, who is John Corzine?
John Corzine is a billionaire, and he made his money where?
On Wall Street.
Goldman Sachs, to be specific, but Wall Street, the hated dreaded enemies of the world on Wall Street, and he's one of them, and he's a rich Democrat.
Guys like him now are having their salaries cut by 90% by the Pazar.
So I Corzine ought to not get one vote from Democrats.
Democrats hate these Wall Street people.
Obama has seen to it.
I'll bet Corzine still hops his jet and goes to Vegas now and then.
Neither are all members of Congress or most governors on the ballot, but to varying degrees, the outcome of a few disparate disparate elections.
The outcome of a few disparate elections Tuesday could provide clues about how people feel about their country, their president, and their party in power one year after Democrats won the white.
You think so, Liz?
You think so?
Did Obama's campaigning in Virginia and New Jersey persuade the diverse voting coalition that lifted him to victory to turn out for Democrat candidates in 09?
Did fickle independence stick with the Democrat Party?
Did the out-of-power GOP overcome fissures within its own ranks to find a winning strategy?
Obama has hurt people wherever he's gone.
Let's it'll be interesting to see.
Now this takes me to the fraud uh and this the Super Bowl analogy.
Wait, the last line.
The last line of this AP story.
State controlled associated press.
I'll read the paragraph in which the last line comes.
The party divided between GOP candidate Diddy Scuza Fubba, who supports abortion rights and gay marriage, and Doug Hoffman, the conservative party candidate.
The split threatened to give Democrat Bill Owens the wind, then trailing badly in the polls.
Scuzza Fava bowed out Saturday with a GOP establishment swung behind Hoffman as it looked to ensure a Republican victory in the longtime GOP district.
In that case, this is the takeaway.
The GOP still isn't unified no matter the Tuesday scorecard.
That's the end of the AP story.
The spin no matter what happens.
The GOP isn't unified.
That's the spin.
See, I think I think they already have an idea at state-controlled AP what's going to happen.
And so the spins getting out there early.
They ran a story.
They ran a story before the markets opened today, saying the market soared.
The market dramatically up on some sort of news.
They posted the story based on the futures, but before the market had opened.
They're writing news before it happens.
They're creating template and spin.
And it's it's fascinating to uh to watch.
Now public policy polling again.
Christie, Chris Christie leads Corzine 4741 in their final poll in the New Jersey governor's race.
Chris Daggett is at uh 11%.
Corzine had pulled it within a point of Christie on our poll three weeks ago after uh trailing by as many as 14 points over the summer.
Uh you know, these are the only guys that have it this big.
Public policy polling and the it's a six-point lead here for Christie, 4740 won't be interesting to see if these guys are right when uh when all of this is said and done.
Now, Super Bowl business.
Those of you who are football fans, you know what the Super Bowl.
You get all wired for it.
It's a big almost national holiday.
It's the biggest day of the year for football fans.
Well, an election is the biggest day of the year for the fraudsters.
Acorn, SEIU, the new Black Panthers, they may get their equivalent of the Super Bowl or maybe World series, if you want to look at it tomorrow, this will be the first time they can affect an election since Obama's immaculation.
These people have been waiting excitedly for a chance to go out and affect an election like um uh you can't believe.
Now everybody should understand that a Republican will never win a close or contested vote in a state with a Democrat as Secretary of State.
One thing law abiding Americans can do when they vote, and I would suggest New York 23, New Jersey, in Virginia.
What I would suggest that you do, even if you're not voting.
But I I don't trust these polls.
Do vote.
Please understand you gotta follow through here.
Uh you gotta finish.
And finishing means voting.
Take your cameras.
Take your cell phone cameras to polling places, ready to record anything that appears suspicious, illegal, or intimidating toward voters.
I mean, this is how the new Black Panthers were caught in Philadelphia.
Intimidating voters.
Somebody had a picture and they rolled camera on it.
Uh not that it did any good, uh, thanks to Eric Holder and uh and Barack Obama.
Uh but this is you know, this this is this is their this is their day tomorrow, and that with the Democrats in trouble, dry run.
Dry run tomorrow for 2010 and for 2012.
Now, Biden, back to old Joe.
Joe Biden doesn't know what I'm for.
I want to read something.
And and Obama Obama says he'll listen to ideas.
How many millions of ideas have I thrown out on this radio program?
I wrote a Wall Street Journal op-ed on a bipartisan stimulus plan.
He's not listening to anybody else's idea.
Somebody got a better idea.
Oh, listen, he's not listening to anything.
He listens only to himself and uh Ron Emmanuel and Axe.
Axelrod.
But I wrote a piece, October 17th, 2005.
During the Harriet Myers fiasco, when George W. Bush had nominated her for the U.S. Supreme Court, and those of us uh conservatives, no no no, no.
This this this is uh this too this is too important.
And I wrote, because they were at the time the media, the Democrats were saying that there was a crack crack up, conservative crack up going on.
We were cracking, we were we were falling apart.
We were not unified conservatives, we're not unified because of the Harriet Myers mess.
So I wrote a piece of Wall Street Journal.
I just want to read the first paragraph to you.
I love being a conservative.
We conservatives are proud of our philosophy.
Unlike our liberal friends who are constantly looking for new words to conceal their true beliefs, and are in a perpetual state of reinvention.
We conservatives are unapologetic about our ideals.
We are confident in our principles and energetic about openly advancing them.
We believe in individual liberty, limited government, capitalism, the rule of law, faith, a colorblind society, and national security.
We support school choice, enterprise zones, tax cuts, welfare reform, faith-based initiatives, political speech, homeowner rights, and the war on terrorism.
And at our core, we embrace and celebrate the most magnificent governing document ever ratified by any nation, the U.S. Constitution.
Along with the Declaration of Independence, which recognizes our God-given natural right to be free.
It is the foundation on which our government is built and has enabled us to flourish as a people.
Secretary, Vice President, former Vice President Biden says he doesn't know what we're for.
He knows exactly what we're for.
Scares him to death.
Coco, well, we'll re-link to this.
I'll give I'll send you the link, Coco.
We'll put it uh put it back up uh at Rush Limbaugh.com.
Let's see.
Let's see.
Uh Christine in Nazareth, Pennsylvania.
She's been hold holding a long time.
Thank you for your patience.
Hello.
Hello, Rush.
Megadiddo.
Thank you.
I just want to say I'm honored.
Um I was a member of your audience back in your New York TV show in 1993.
Loved your show then.
Still love you now.
Um two things, serious, and then one good news.
The series.
Mike woke up the other morning to that picture op of the uh caskets returning home and Obama saluting them.
Yep.
Why didn't anyone in the media come out?
With Bush, it was how many casualties, number by number, day by day.
The blood of those soldiers are on his hands for not sending troops for over 60 days.
I'm not a war person, but he didn't give them any help, and the blood is on his hands, and the media should come out to say so.
That's not gonna happen.
I understand your anger, but it's not gonna happen.
My other thing is good news, and your name gets all around.
As far as someone calling it about the Republicans for the youth, what can I do?
My son is a junior in high school, and his advanced history teacher, his first day said, I make Rush Limbaugh look like a bleep bleeding heart liberal.
I love it.
I love it when people say that to me.
It means we're making progress out there.
So that means there's teachers out there that are teaching the right thing and guarding our children.
Rush, I love you so much.
And Wednesday is my twentieth wedding anniversary.
My husband Tom, and I tell him all the time that you're the only man that I would leave him for.
But how did he feel about that?
He's like, Oh, wonderful, Christine.
Thanks a lot.
Although he does say, because I say I watch Fox News and he goes, I heard everything from Rush, because sometimes I can't hear you.
And he goes, I got he told me everything.
We had our meeting on the mountain.
He gets uh all the information from you.
Keep up the good work, Rush.
I love you.
Thank you, Christine very much.
And I love I love you too.
I appreciate the call.
I'm a little long, folks.
The next segment's gonna be a little shorter than usual, but we'll get to it when we get back.
Weekly Standard uh is reporting on its blog that this rally where Biden spoke, the place was only sixty-five percent full.
Uh Watertown is a is a town of population of thirty thousand people.
Uh the the Biden event for Owens up there was uh open to the public.
Nobody needed a ticket to get in.
Uh two hundred and fifty people showed up, fifty of them with the media.
So two hundred non-media showed up for the for the uh Biden rally, which was only about sixty-five percent full.
Uh there I don't think there's a whole lot of momentum up there.
Uh, and I'm sure the vice president's sure not pulling them out.
Uh and and uh rallying the troops up there, sixty-five percent full, two hundred and fifty people, and fifty of them are the uh are the media.
Here's Alan in Rockland, New York.
Great to have you on the EIB network, sir.
Hello.
Rush, it's a pleasure to speak with you, and I just want to tell you I am uh absolutely honored to be speaking with the bravest non-military man in the United States.
Well, gee, thank you.
Um thank you very much.
Rush, uh I'm trying to be brave myself, and I want to ask an important question.
When is the media gonna ask this question?
Is is Rahmanuel running our country, or is it uh President Obama?
Because he's always out playing golf.
I mean, he's always out at a concert or at a rally with the troops being in harm's way.
Rahm Emanuel, who has been, you know, working with fr uh Freddie Mack.
We we're not allowed to see the board meeting minutes.
I mean, he mails dead fish to opponents.
Um when when will we find out w who this guy is, Ram Emanuel, and is he running our country?
And why is he so close to the president rush?
Someone who is absolutely unstable.
I mean, if you mailed dead fish to somebody, you'd never become a cop or a teacher or a fireman.
Well, what's going on here?
Why can't we find out the board meetings?
Well, let me explain something to you.
Um I don't know how I I'm I'm not frustrated.
I'm not mad.
Please don't take this personally.
But I don't know how many times I'm I'm going to have to say.
The media if you are going to wait for the media to treat them like they treat us, you are forever, you're gonna die dissatisfied.
Cause it's never going to happen.
Why won't the media tell us about Rahm Emanuel and how if if he's really running the country, they don't care.
The f they they're in fact if they know that he's running the country, they're in on the secret.
They're not gonna blow it for these guys.
But here's there's another aspect of your question that I want to address too.
Don't believe for a moment that Obama does not have His sleeves rolled up and is in charge of all of this.
These people are a team.
It's Chicago.
This is Chicago thug politics.
Mayor Daly, if anybody's running this show, it is Mayor Daly.
You got Ron Emmanuel, you've got Axelrod.
They're all out of Chicago.
You have Obama out of Chicago.
This is Chicago machine politics brought to the national level.
And they all think the same way.
They all uh have the same agenda.
Uh it's it's not that Obama is an empty suit and these guys are out there uh as Carl Rove was said to be the genius behind George W. Bush.
He's in on it.
He's in on it, he has said as much, read what he has written, uh listen to what he has said in previous media appearances over the course of his life.
This is exactly what he intended to do if he ever got elected, and he's brought along people who agree with him and are along for the ride, helping him get where he wants to go.
Fastest three hours in media, the first two are already gone.
This headline on the Drudge Report really strikes me as illustrative of something.
The headline is Atlanta poised to elect white mayor.
Think of that.
That that is news.
