Time Text
Yeah, we're back, Rush Limbaugh.
This is the Excellence in Broadcasting Network, folks.
Great to have you with us.
Uh see.
Telephone numbers 800 282-2882 and the email address, Lrushbo at EIB net.com.
Uh I've been thinking about this health health care question.
I was asking myself.
I'm I'm really I'm really beginning to think now, and I can't it's just it's just a wild guess here, but I'm thinking all of this is a bluff.
I I I don't I don't think Harry Reed's got the votes in the Senate.
They can't dare bring this thing to the floor for a vote if it is if it's gonna fail.
Um there's some reports that uh uh you know, Reed went out there and said, Don't worry, I've talked to I've talked to Lieberman Lieber's of he's fine, he's not gonna join any filibuster.
And I've got a blog here that I I wish I had another source for this.
The blog says that um uh Lieberman says, I've never talked to Harry Reed.
I don't have a special deal with him.
I don't know what he's talking about.
Harry Reed's lying.
So it's it's just it's just a blog that that is reporting that, and I'm haven't seen it anywhere else.
It's called Yid with Lid dot blog spot.
Uh but I know Bart Stupak, the Democrat from Michigan, Bart Stupac has got 40 members of the House that say they are going to vote against this thing because of the abortion uh uh provisions in it, and they held a hair health care for illegal immigrants.
And he sent Pelosi a letter that had 189 signatures on it, warning her that uh the she's nowhere near where she needs needs to be.
And yet everybody thinks these votes are imminent next week.
Now we get the story out here that Reed says uh I'm not gonna put a timeline on this, I'm not gonna commit to getting this done by the end of the year.
I mean, if if you take this is a tough thing, if you take these people at their word, what you have to conclude is they don't have the votes, and they're trying to make everybody think they do.
Yet they don't.
So we'll see.
The Heritage Foundation weighs in today on this election, the state of conservatism, by asking what does this mean for the conservative movement?
Whether it was Republican victories in Virginia, New Jersey, or even in typical liberal bastions like Westchester County, New York.
The post analysis was framed on what does this mean on Capitol Hill and more importantly, what does it mean for the conservative movement?
However, uh last night did not represent a new day for conservatives.
On Monday, the same could have been said.
The state of conservatism is strong.
The state of conservatism can be measured through its popularity, its policies, and its people.
Most observers would say election day 2008 was not a good day for conservatives.
However, putting election results aside, President Obama campaigned as a centrist.
Obama promised to address jobs, the economy, national security, even told teachers that they were going to be held accountable for their children's education.
Obama promised the most of America would receive a tax cut.
He promised to win a necessary war in Afghanistan.
These are conservative principles that Obama promised.
While many Americans knew that he would skew left on health care, the environment and diplomacy, they also took him at his word on his conservative window dressing.
Matching reality to rhetoric, Obama has made Jimmy Carter look conservative, promoting job-killing policy after job killing policy.
He has taken uh nine months and counting to make a basic strategic decision on troop levels in Afghanistan, endangering troops and the mission.
This reality versus rhetoric is reminding the nation that conservatism is not merely a talking point, but a first principle.
Now, let's go back to these recent polls that we've talked about.
The Pew Center first, a poll in May 2009, conducted in March and April when Obama was still hugely popular.
The poll showed the overwhelming trend is toward conservatism and not merely among Republicans.
The number of independents calling themselves conservative was increasing to 33%, up from 26% in 2005.
And independents went big Republican yesterday.
The number of Democrats calling themselves conservatives was also up to 8%.
In this poll, 37% described themselves as politically conservative, almost double the number identifying as liberal, which was 19%.
Then the Gallup poll in June.
Conservatives, two to one uh majority over liberals, 40% to 20%.
Now, this is a this is, and this is a great point.
This is a great point to make here.
The poll was not about a person or a party.
It was about ideology.
Conservatism was not in this poll grounded in any one party or candidate.
It was election neutral.
In fact, it was the only tripartisan issue or philosophy overwhelming numbers of Americans seem to agree on.
Conservatism.
The state of conservatism and conservative popularity is strong.
It can be seen all over the place.
And the this is why this folks, this is why I I really love the people at the Heritage Foundation.
This is this is just a post on their blog today called the Morning Bill.
And it is exactly what is needed.
We had it, we had a guy call here named Bobby.
Why aren't these electoral margins any bigger?
How come they're so close, other other than in uh Virginia?
And the, you know, the We're turning this ship around, and it's uh just beginning here, and this was a major, major statement.
And what Hoffman almost pulled off in New York 23 is big when everything is looked at it.
And so here comes the Heritage Foundation.
I write this piece on their blog intended to inspire people.
Don't get depressed, don't get down on the dumps.
It's it's hard because you know, people still do, even though the numbers are down, people still do watch the media.
And the media does not report what over half the country thinks or over what half the country does.
And so that half of the country never sees or reads or hears itself, mentioned or accurately portrayed in what is called the mainstream media.
Conservatives have been offering alternatives throughout.
Conservatives support a health care plan that eliminates imaginary barriers from true competition by allowing insurance to compete across state lines, allowing consumers to take their insurance from job to job, uh, giving them the same tax breaks the federal government gives big corporations.
Conservatives write the Heritage Foundation have a destiny.
Conservatives can strengthen our economic and national security, can offer real solutions to the nation's challenges without robbing Peter to pay Paul.
Conservatives can continue to learn about the issues that affect their families, their communities, their businesses, and with this knowledge you affect real change.
Heritage Foundation has never been stronger.
Well, half million members now, half a million members.
It's actually more than that.
Uh, and it uh it continues to grow.
You can join the Heritage Foundation and help them keep up the work that they're doing.
Just go to Askheritage.org and check it out.
Well worth your time, well worth your investment.
I people are I'm I'm being showered here with confirmations that what I saw on this blog, Joe Lieberman says Harry Reed lied, is in fact true.
That Fox has reported it last week in a dramatic announcement.
Lieberman announced that he will vote along with the Republican Party to filibuster the Obamacare bill in the Senate.
It was a big blow to the Democrat efforts to take over health care, so Tom Harkin threatened to throw Lieberman out of the Democrat caucus.
Yesterday, Harry Reed's office reported that Reed and Lieberman reached a secret deal where the senator will not vote for a filibuster but will continue to vote against the bill in the final roll call.
But sources said that Reed's staff is telling liberal interest groups that Lieberman has assured Reed that he will vote with Democrats in the necessary procedural vote to end debate, perhaps with intentions to change the bill.
He's one of these characters you never know with Joe.
But a spokesman for Lieberman is uh refuting this report, that he has struck a deal with Harry Reid.
The Hill newspaper reported that Reed's staff told liberal interest groups Lieberman had assured Reed that he would vote with Democrats.
Lieberman spokesman Marshall Whitman vehemently denied this.
He told Fox News, If you believe this story is true, you will also believe I'm replacing Arod in game six of the series.
So Harry Reid is just lying about it.
Just lying about it.
So that's that.
I was happy I was able to straighten that out.
But brief time out here, folks, we'll be back and uh continue right after this.
Stay with us.
All right, we are back, uh ladies and gentlemen.
Your phone call's coming up uh in in a jiffy, but one more prediction.
Uh and actually, this this I I got a uh a limbaugh echo here from F. Chuck Todd.
Uh this is a point yesterday.
I hammered it home.
Folks, look at me.
Look at me.
I want I want to issue you a profundity here.
If any Republican wins today, it has to show that it is attracting independence, right?
Because the White House, David Plough and all these people saying that GOP party affiliation is at an all-time low.
If party affiliation is at an all-time low and Republicans win today, why it has to be independence by their own definition.
And I'm going to hang that around their necks tomorrow.
And I can't wait.
Last night on uh hard-boiled, Chris Matthews was talking to White House correspondent F. Chuck Todd.
And Matthew said, uh, this guy Corzine, big money guy from Wall Street.
I mean, let's face it, he can't walk away.
Who would want to walk away from that?
But he's got it on his back.
The other thing out of this, and I just don't want us to lose this fact.
The independent, the Republicans, win or lose in New Jersey tonight, will carry independence in Virginia, will carry independence in New Jersey, and are going to win independence in that New York 23 race.
That is not insignificant.
And that should be a warning sign, sort of like a yellow light, not a red light to the White House, but a yellow light.
It's a red light.
F Chuck.
So it's a warning.
Limbaugh Echo syndrome.
And let's go to the LA Times headline.
Republican victories send message to Democrats in the first page, uh first paragraph, uh, giving the GOP a lift and offering warning signs of Democrats ahead of the 2010 midterm elections.
And then we go to the Washington Post, which endorsed Creed.
I guess the Washington Post really didn't have all that much influence, does it?
Uh headline.
Contests serve as warning to Democrats.
It's not 2008 anymore.
Warning!
Warning!
Independents have abandoned ship.
Republicans can win independence with the right message.
And the media spins with the messages in the next story.
Now the hard part for the Republicans continuing to straddle the center and the right.
As McDonald's lead widened, he poured on conservatism, however.
In the final days of the campaign, as his lead widened in the polls, McDonald more often declared conservative intentions.
He spoke daily of limited government, low taxes, free enterprise.
He said he would stand up strong against a same-sex marriage bunch.
And to protect the unborn.
Conservatism is ascending.
It was a large factor in both these guys being elected in Virginia and in New Jersey.
Do not let anybody else tell you otherwise.
All right, uh, let's see.
This is Ram, is that right?
Rom.
Rom in El Segundo, California.
Hi.
Yes.
Uh Rush.
Good to be with you.
Ditto Cam Watra Diddos.
Um just wondering how you think the Hoffman defeat is going to affect Sarah Palin's movement towards the Oval Office, and I'll take your comments off the air.
Thank you so much.
You are more than welcome.
I don't know that she has intentions of moving toward the Oval Office.
People are surmising this, but I don't know that she's going to do that.
Uh now she's laying the groundwork for it.
You got to write a book.
And in her case, I think she actually wrote it.
She's um.
She's got these people in the press in such a tizzy.
There is an anti-palin book coming out.
Uh and it were they are uh two people were interviewed on the on a CBS morning show today.
The experts on Sarah Palin, one of them who wrote the book happens to work at CBS.
Um I've always said that the Democrats will tell us who they really fear.
The Democrats will tell us.
Who are who who on our side really, really threaten them.
And there's no question that Sarah Palin is that.
And we had a we had a good caller earlier.
Guy said, you know, it's not just the Democrats.
You know, this the elite Republicans, they don't like her either because she's an average person.
She's a normal person.
Normal people are not welcome at the highest level of electoral politics.
She doesn't have the right pedigree.
She doesn't come to the right from the right part of the country, and therefore she doesn't know hobnob with the right kind of people.
I don't think, you know, we've got Diane Sawyer on Good Morning America today, and I have no idea what the what the sound bite is, because I've got 34 sound bites here, and I have no idea.
Let me see if I can find it real quick.
It's number 11.
This this out and the media couldn't wait.
This is just one example of what was happening today all over television.
What about the congressional race in upstate New York?
Where, as we all know, Sarah Palin and Rush Limbaugh intervened to push the moderate Republican candidate out of the race in favor of a conservative candidate.
Well, it seems to have handed victory to the Democrat.
They're doing anything they can to ignore Virginia and uh and and New Jersey.
So the talking points are uh Limbaugh and Palin lost.
Uh intervened.
I have never been to Watertown, New York.
I have never spoken to Doug Hoffman, although as the titular head of the Republican Party, I of course was uh behind fixing the mess, which was Didi Skazafaza.
I I forced her out.
I single-handedly intervened, and I forced Didi Skazafaz out.
If I could have gotten her name off the ballot, I'd have done that, but I only had so much power.
The Sarah Palin is not damaged at all to answer the guy's question.
Sarah Palin is not damaged at all by the good showing of Doug Hoffman.
Not at all.
She's not damaged, folks.
This is I I had some people over for dinner last night, and I it happened.
I started I lost my temper.
I started throwing a napkin because I got questions.
These are people.
These are my friends.
There's people listen to my show.
These are people that I talk to a lot, and and these guys, one of them, started spouting questions to me that were just reflected every criticism of her that has been in the media.
The Katie Couric interview and this and I said, look at well, I'm not going to tell you what I said because it was laced.
But if I went on for five minutes, and I'm pounding the table and I'm throwing my napkin and throwing it, picking it up and throwing it again, and when I f and everybody's at table um uh is spellbound, and when I finish, they all pick up their napkins and they start throwing them.
And the guy says, All right, that's what I wanted to hear.
I don't understand I I I've really have a tough time uh juxtaposing what what I have seen with my own eyes, what I heard her say, what I I've heard her speak, I've written, uh read what she's written, I have seen the crowds that she draws.
I know what she thinks about things.
And I don't have any qu I don't I don't buy any of the conventional wisdom about it.
She needs to bone up on this, she needs to bone up on that.
For crying out loud, folks.
Don't anybody tell me, please, that in a contest of what we've got going on in this country now, led by Barack Obama, that Sarah Palin wouldn't be a welcome change.
I just so would any of our people.
Don't don't misunderstand, but for crying out loud, I don't I don't understand the disconnect.
I understand the liberals being afraid of her.
I think that should make us be confident in her.
But this inability that some people have to distance themselves from the impact of mainstream media Democrat Party criticism is really curious and troubling to me.
I'm not saying she's perfect.
I'm not endorsing her.
I'm not doing anything of the sort.
But I'm gonna tell you this woman is one hell of a strong woman.
Look at they have tried literally to crucify her.
They have done everything in every venue of media, popular culture media, music, television, books.
They've done everything to destroy her reputation, her image, her life.
They've brought her kids into it.
Well, Russia, she brought her kids into it.
Well, every politician brings their kids into it, but most people's kids, politicians' kids are end up being off limits.
And she's still hanging in there.
She obviously has a deep belief of the principles that she holds, and she considers it very important.
So I I uh I I don't think this race result, the Hoffman race is gonna is gonna damage her, give her any kind of a uh problem.
I and I don't even know.
I don't even I don't know if anybody knows that she actually intends to run for president.
Everybody's assuming so because it looks, you know, the pattern here, the track uh is similar to the path that others who have done this have taken.
But we'll just have to wait and see.
Regardless, I don't think the thing with Hoffman hurt her at all.
Did it hurt me?
Can I let's be honest about something?
Twenty-one years.
Whenever something like the New York race happens, hey hey, Limbaugh bombs out.
Limbaugh blew it.
Limbaugh rejected by New York 23.
Limbaugh when Clinton was elected.
Limbaugh rejected Clinton.
What's when we're gonna talk about?
And I'm still here.
More popular than ever terms of ratings.
We've never had a down business year.
Now I know I'm not a politician running for office seeking votes.
You know, getting votes is much different than getting listeners.
But nevertheless, it hasn't hurt.
It arguably has helped.
Uh same thing with Palin.
This is a criticism of palin, it's so transparent anyway.
I mean, if if you're gonna say that Palin really is harmed by what happened in uh in New York, but I'm gonna tell you what, Obama five times in New Jersey, and the same people are saying it's not about him.
Wasn't about him.
We'll be back, folks.
Stop with us.
Okay, we are back, Rush Limboy.
Having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have.
Telephone number 800-282-2882.
All right.
I have to say it.
I don't want to say it, but I have to say it.
Folks, I put my calendar and my schedule together way, way in advance.
And I'm not going to be here tomorrow and Friday, and I'm really conflicted, but I have some important responsibilities and commitments that I made, and I have to I have to keep them.
And I I'm I'm just I'm flipped off here that Pelosi's threatening to have this House vote on Friday, this rally uh tomorrow in Washington.
Am I not being here as a um it is a I can't tell you how frustrated it is, but it this is a it's a it's a matter of honor here with me, and and I have not been released by these people to whom I made the commitment.
So we've got Mark Davis tomorrow, Mark Stein will be here on on Friday.
And I I I know that I know it's tough to saddle on.
Um, but you can do it for two days.
And I'll be back, be back on Monday.
And I've been putting off telling you, I've been putting off telling you because I know the timing of this is just horrible.
Now, why are you s snerdily why are you laughing in there?
This is this I am I am deadly serious about this.
Well, I know, I know the snarks are still gonna email me email me no matter what what I say, but I mean I I could have I could have taken the chicken route and just not said anything and just not shown up tomorrow.
And uh oh, what happened?
What happened?
I you know, I always yeah, snurdies.
Snerdley says that I should tell you all of what I'm actually doing is previewing a documentary that people are making about me, and I'm gonna be watching it all day tomorrow.
Um and I look, folks, I promise I will not have a good time.
I will come back Monday complaining about the rotten time I had.
So it'll be okay.
Uh audio sound bites.
Andrew Breitbart at his website, biggovernment.com or big org, whatever.
Eleven more kid videos singing songs to Obama.
Eleven.
This it is it is apparently obvious now.
This is not just a uh random thing that's happening.
This is not random.
There's a there's a coordinated plan to this.
We have three sound bites.
Here's one from February 7th, one from July 16th, and one from March 29th.
First one, it's Big Hollywood, is the website, bighollywood.com.
Gotham Avenue School, fifth graders.
We'll be right back.
We believe in Barack Obama.
He loves you and he loves your mama.
That's a Gotham Avenue School, February 7, 2009.
This is again Breitbart's Big Hollywood.com.
Here's the James W. Hennigan elementary school, a portion of a great a group of uh grade school kids singing a song praising Obama as fresh as cool, uh, and an added bonus in this song, the kids trash Bush and McCain.
Obama is fresh.
Obama is full.
He has two guys that like to go to school.
It's not outside, but jump in the pool.
Obama was the president and has an own resident.
There's people all around me.
Questions are the admin.
But I want your guys to be their own bank.
She doesn't want the brothers to do it instead.
The 44th President of USA.
Because he beat Senator John McCain.
Oh, but my child of the overall office.
He told Bush and his cabinet and get Obama command.
Hey, hey.
And now I'm still the President of the USA Tomorrow's a new day And we're living our life Thank you.
That's uh the James W. Hennigan Elementary School, July 16th.
And there are 11.
Is it 11 of these or 24?
I'm having a metal block now on how many there are.
But I think it's 11.
And and at Big Hollywood, the website, the transcripts of all of these uh songs are there, as well as videos of this.
It's obvious this is not random anymore.
Or it never was random.
Here is uh the Giffin elementary school, March 29th.
But hey, about the man, it ain't about the woman, he's the leader of the thing.
He was blind, Hawaii, then he lived in Illinois.
Then thought he moved to Arizona, he was a little boy.
He got to do some trouble, man.
He was 17, then he got to sell a city.
Now he's done a city, baby.
He's got to civil rights and better health care.
He wants to make sure that the law is down there.
He wants to reform, the first step is in him.
He's very educated and he's got a lot of wisdom.
First black president of the heart of the community.
He wants to make the world better for being a citizen.
At the time of university, he used to be a citizen.
And till I was a boy, he was a king of fear.
I never had you.
National Connecticut.
Yes, we can.
Hey, yes, we can.
Yes, we did.
Yes, we can.
Yes, we did.
I wonder if they've learned yet that two plus two is four.
Uh Gallup poll is a tracking poll.
It's on the edge, 50 to 43.
Job approval to disapproval.
50.
And I bet they had to work real hard to get it to stay at 50.
He's below 50 in the Rasmussen poll.
All right to Newburgh, New York.
Bob, you're next on the EIB network.
Sir, great to have you here.
Rush, I love your show.
Thank you so much for taking my call.
You bet.
I really appreciate you know I've been on hold for two hours, but it's been worth it because if my wife is on schedule, she's listening to us right now.
Well, excellent.
Uh I wanted to tell you, we are fired up about this protest tomorrow.
My wife is actually we don't have a lot of money.
I'm a truck driver.
I'm actually in Bristol, Connecticut now, right down the road from ESPN.
Excuse me, ESPN.
But uh, we don't really have a lot of money because I took a huge pay cut this year.
We're gonna take 180 bucks.
Take our kids out of school, and my wife and my daughter Katrina and Miranda are going to DC, and they're gonna get in our congressman's face, and we're gonna say, just say no.
We're tired of this.
They work for us, not the other way around.
They don't look at I know, but they don't, they don't it's long past them looking at it like that.
Uh and why why would they when they can vote themselves raises?
If they work for if they work for us, I mean I've never had to say so whether they get a raise.
Oh no, they never asked me either, because I sure wouldn't vote for it, but that's not the point.
I mean we've already got a conservative in line to take his seat.
Oh, I our congressman is Tim Ryan, 17th of Ohio.
This guy is going down.
He actually voted for the captain trade, even though he was on the radio a couple days later saying, Well, all my constituents said they don't want me to vote for it, but I voted for it anyway.
You just told your bosses that you didn't want to listen to them.
Yeah.
That's happening throughout the Democrat Party side of this.
I mean, but what you know, your call is is uh illustrative that this is effervescent.
There is a uh bubbling up out there.
Uh oh, Russian.
I was asked about Sarah Palin a moment ago.
I think, you know, Sarah Palin, average normal person.
You is you you can see her at anybody's house having dinner, and the more people attack her, the more they are attacking middle class, average, ordinary, everyday people.
And I think I think there's a uh a line that's already been crossed with her.
You watch her book sales, you watch.
You're the people are gonna be stunned over that.
They're trying to harm her book sales, they're trying to make sure she's perceived as a joke, and she keeps out there plugging and and and you know I won't I don't know if she's gonna be at this thing tomorrow or how it hurts.
You know who else you better watch is Michelle Bachman.
She's gonna be well into the next speaker.
You know, that's another and there's another one, Marsha Blackburn in Tennessee.
Now I find this I'm very pro I want everybody to listen to me.
I am very, very proud here that three of the most vocal, principled, action-oriented, not standing down but standing up to all of this onslaught in our party are women.
Sarah Palin, Michelle Bachmann, who is helping to organize this thing tomorrow, Marsha Blackburn, and and there are others.
And we've had to go through this this mindless criticism that we are anti-female, anti-this, anti-that.
Um and of course, nothing could be further from the truth.
That's uh it's great.
And I'm I'm proud that that's the case in our party.
Thanks very much for the call out there, Bob.
A quick timeout.
We'll be back after this.
We uh have had people here um going through the Barack Obama documentary called Combat Pay.
And we put together a little montage here.
The the uh the documentary is entitled by the people, the election of Barack Obama from the film November 7th, 2006, during the midterm elections.
Here's a montage of Obama and Robert Gibbs talking about the returns.
Did they have a count on the uh house seats, yet?
That's the other one that this pickup.
The uh in Louisville is up with uh 96% in, but they haven't called it.
My goal is every candidate I campaign for I want to win.
Every single one.
I love elections.
I mean that's so much fun.
It's even more fun when you're not on the ballot.
My goal is every candidate I campaign for, I want to win.
Ah, oh, and that was in the um documentary that they're last night.
I guess it doesn't apply anymore to Corzine, as Bob Beckle called him.
Folks, I do not have a cold.
I've had uh Snur Snerdley just asked me, I've got emails, you sound stuffy.
I was up late last night.
I do not have a cold.
If I had a cold, you would never know it anyway, because I would take Zycam.
I'm getting you know, it's funny, I'm getting email from people uh that yeah, I've got secret stashes of the gel swabs, just like I have a secret stash of light bulbs.
People are hoarding light because this stuff has been banned and so forth.
The gel swabs for Zycam are no longer available.
They've come up with other forms and flavors and it does the same thing it's well it arrests the uh onset of the cold or it really slows down if you catch it early Zycam will prevent your cold from reaching full strength and it'll shorten the duration.
It doesn't just mask symptoms it actually reduces the time that you are sick and it enables you to continue to work or do what you have to do because the symptoms will not be nearly as severe you have to catch it quick folks.
I mean if you miss it by a day you may be too late.
That's been my experience with it.
So you got to have it with you and it's Z I C A M. Many different forms, flavors, liquilaz, uh uh lozenge and so forth, and then there's other forms of it uh cold medicine uh with uh the sore throat reliever and so forth but the the minute the second you think that you're exhibiting or feeling a symptom of the cold take it and then follow directions every four hours and you'll be cool.
Here is Teresa Hartford County Maryland.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Hi Rush Hi.
You are a gift from God literally it's my birthday and I can't believe I got 300 Well happy happy birthday.
Thank you.
Um listen I have a theory on why Obama won't go to Berlin and I'd love your opinion.
Oh okay.
The man child is throwing a temper tantrum because when he was running for office he wanted to speak at the Berlin law and they wouldn't let him because he hadn't accomplished anything you know what you may be right they wanted him he wanted to speak at the Brandenburg gate.
Right.
And uh they no that's reserved for uh leaders who have achieved something who are serving in office or something so maybe you know what I think that does explain it.
He's in a snit he's in a snit you wouldn't let me so screw you.
It's it it is it's it's it's this is what I meant by man child immature uh when I said all of this on Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace this past Sunday.
Yeah I think Teresa I have to say that you you thought of something that I didn't and that is rare when that happens you should be very proud.
Well thank you for taking my call okay Teresa thanks much Wayne in Roanoke Virginia welcome to the EIB network hello hey Rush it's a pleasure to speak to you I've been uh listening to you for close to twenty years.
It's the first answer I've had to catch up with you.
Thank you, sir.
Wonderful to listen to you and everything.
Oh by the way I wanted to tell you I was born in Missouri Ron raised in Missouri too.
What part?
I was in a little town called Marshall, about 80 miles east of Kansas City.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know where Marshall is.
Yeah, I remember old Truman saying the buck stops here.
Well, Obama, the passing the buck starts there.
Okay, he got it skirted.
I want, hello?
Yeah, yeah, I'm listening.
I wanted to tell you about, I'm down here in Roanoke in the west side with Bob McDonnell winning.
It really is a statement against Obama.
I mean, we have people down here that was winning just on the cap and trade issue alone.
It's going to devastate the western part of Virginia.
And I heard a lot of people, they were talking about the cap and trade, the spending, and of course health care.
It definitely was a statement against Obama.
Absolutely.
I don't think there's any question about it.
When the exit polls say that people's primary concern was the economy, I don't know how you can say that has nothing to do with Obama.
I mean, it's his.
He owns it.
He's destroying it.
And people are aware of this.
Look at, folks, nothing he said was going to happen has happened.
It's the exact opposite.
It's gotten worse.
There aren't any new jobs.
The infrastructure is not being fixed.
I mean, the stories and the money that being, that $250,000, $213,000, Syracuse University, wherever it is, to study the sex lives of freshman female college students.
It's a dead story.
What do you guys, what do you mean it's a dead story?
Did they cancel the money?
No, they didn't cancel the money.
people would do that for a dollar you don't have to spend 213 thousand dollars for that Anyway, I gotta take a brief time out here, folks.
Uh sit tight, and we will be right back.
All right.
Now remember the big rally in Washington tomorrow.
I really don't have a feel for the number of people, but I think people are going to be shocked at the number of people that show it.
And remember what the objective is.
The objective is to roam the halls of the Capitol Executive Office buildings and find members of Congress and just in person say, no, we won't.
No, we're not doing this health care bill.
Michelle Bachman says that the uh emails and phone calls are no longer having the impact that they that they once did.
And it's um there's a lot going on with this, so it's important to uh to zap it.
Remember now, Mark Davis tomorrow and Mark Stein on Friday.
I'll be back and things will be normal uh Monday.
