Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 podcast.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hang on.
Here we go.
Just uh printing a late arriving missive.
And I'm gonna need soon.
Greetings, my friends, and welcome.
It is the Excellence in Broadcasting Network.
And I am L. Rushbow, America's truth detector, and the Doctor of Democracy here on the Excellence in Broadcasting Network.
800 282882 is a phone number.
Any email address, L Rushbow at EIBNet.com.
You can stop sending me emails that Adita Anita Hunita Dunn is leaving the Obama administration.
We reported that last week on this program when we also reported that her husband is joining the administration.
He's a lawyer in some capacity.
I'm expecting Obama will drop off Anita Dunn somewhere in Asia on his next trip there so that she can uh fully immerse herself in her Maoism.
800 282-2882, if you want to be on the program, the uh email address Lrushbaugh at EIBNet.com, unemployment likely will remain high for the next several years because the economic recovery won't be strong enough to spur robust hiring.
Federal reserve officials warned today.
Problems in commercial real estate, and that's just around the corner, by the way.
Small business could hinder recovery.
A cautionary note was uh struck by the presidents of regional Fed banks in San Francisco and Atlanta were the first public remarks of Fed officials since a government reported last week that the nation's jobless rate bolted at 10.2% in October.
Now that's what I needed to print out here, because that 10.2% rate is not accurate.
It is always calculated low.
I have talked to many economists who claim uh that the to calculate the actual U.S. unemployment rate, you multiply whatever the government says by one and a half.
During a recession, you multiply it by two.
So 10 and a half unemployment reported by government would equal 21% out in the real world.
And there are all kinds of factors of people that are not working, have given up trying to work, and there are people who are still working who are being overworked by people who refuse to hire anybody new, but they're making them work longer hours.
There are also people in jobs that they hate, but they can't leave because there's nowhere else to go.
Uh so that doesn't add to productivity.
When people hate their work, productivity is way weighed down.
Uh but the bottom line is this, and the reason why this weak recovery won't spur that there's no recovery.
There's no recovery.
Now, uh you you can look at Wall Street and it's it's going through the roof.
It's it's skyrocketing, and people why is that happening?
It's because there's no place in the real economy to put your money.
So you go in and you buy equities and Munis and whatever else.
Some people are selling short, some are uh selling long, but uh the the market right now, the equity markets, the one place that people feel confident uh putting their putting their money.
But one of the one of the problems here, folks, and I uh I know a lot of you in this audience understand this.
The problem with so much bloated government.
I mean, there's a story in the stack here about how banks are going to tighten credit card restrictions.
In other words, they're gonna crack down on lending.
Now, what was TARP all about a year ago?
What was it all about?
It was all about expanding the credit market, getting liquidity into the bank so they can loan money to people so they can invest and grow and so that's not happening because the government is sucking it all up.
The government is sucking up all of the money in the private sector, the government borrowing, government printing.
Um, there's not an infinite supply of dollars running around.
It's a finite supply.
The money supply is what it is, and and uh when government takes more and more of those dollars to finance its own operations, there's less and less out there in the private sector for people to borrow uh for whatever reason.
Credit cards go to the bank, get a loan or what have you.
So it it's it's it really uh is it boils down the fact that all of this unemployment is caused by bloated government sucking up all available credit.
And now they're also regulating banks into restricting credit.
There's two things going on.
This is why I continue to say, And this is causing some Republicans to say that I am not inclusive, but it's got to be on purpose.
At this point, there's enough evidence to show that the political solution here that's being tried does not and is not working.
And now we've got the Fed.
I mean, how does this make you feel?
You talk about that there's a there's a genuine hopelessness out there.
Contrary to all this hope and change, there is a hopelessness from people who are out of work, people who are in jobs they don't like, people who have given up trying to find jobs, and now here we get the official word from the Federal Reserve uh unemployment likely will remain high for the next several years, and they're really not the first people to talk about it.
The administration has said that it might go up to 11%.
Uh which it's really close to 20 when you when you get down to uh brass tax.
Uh this story here says small businesses which held up reasonably well in the 2001 recession have been clobbered by the downturn, accounting for about 45% of net job losses through the end of 2008.
Why is that?
There's no money in the private sector for them to expand with people out of work, they don't have as much money to consume things.
I mean, it it the government cannot provide private sector economic growth.
All the government can do is make itself grow.
But the government cannot grow the place where you are, the private sector where your jobs are.
It's uh it's just it's it's common sense.
And the AP, uh New York Times, all Chicago Tribune, USA Today, state-controlled media.
Uh the continuing not a report on the math behind all those jobs Obama has saved or created.
The AP found that a pay raise for 500 eight 508 employees was counted as 935 jobs saved.
The New York Times discovered that uh 1,047 dollars for a rider more, a lawnmower, rider more, for a cemetery in Arkansas, was credited with saving or creating 50 jobs.
Uh, you talk about minimum wage, divide 50 jobs into 1,000 bucks.
What are these people being paid?
To ride a lawnmower.
The Chicago Tribune found that 4.7 million sent to schools in North Chicago was credited with saving 473 jobs in a district that employs only 290 teachers.
Now that's math we can believe in.
The kind of math being taught in the school system today, USA Today, reported that a 26,174 grant to fix a fence and repair roofs in Texas was reported to have created 450 jobs.
The actual number of jobs involved, six.
And 60, it's total fraud.
65,000 construction jobs lost in the last reporting period that gave us the uh the 10.2% uh unemployment.
So the the the economy is what it is, it's not getting worse, and it's being caused by bloated government, all the stimulus, all the tarp, all the expansion of entitlements, all of the uh extended unemployment benefits, all of this is is just in fact there's a story today confirming, confirming what I have said in a little editorial in the Wall Street Journal.
Some some big uh uh ranking Democrat went uh went somewhere and let the cat out of the bag of the purpose of health care.
Redistribution.
The purpose of health care is not to get people insured.
Not to get it.
This is the Democrat incumbency forever act.
It is to create so much transference of wealth, it is to create so much dependence in the middle class on government that Democrats will never lose power.
That's the objective here.
To make so many of you dependent on your very existence for government subsidies, handouts, and checks, that you think only the Democrat Party will provide those for you, that everybody knows the Republicans, if they ever get in power are going to cut that back.
So this is the long-term goal.
It's also a way for Obama to get even with the achievers in this country who he uh really is not happy about.
I mean let me find that story.
I've got it here.
There's a big health care stack and a uh uh law and have it this.
New York State will be broke by Christmas.
Look what happens when I stop going there.
That's the governor of New York, David Patterson, uh, with that shocking news.
Here it is, Wall Street Journal today, confessions of an Obamacare backer.
The typical argument for Obamacare is that it will offer medical, uh better medical care for everybody and cost less to do it, but occasionally a supporter lets the mask slip and reveals the real political motivation.
So let's credit John Cassidy, part of the left wing stable at the New Yorker, who wrote last week on its website that it's important to be clear about what the real reform amounts to.
Mr. Cassidy is more honest than the politicians whose dishonesty he supports.
He wrote the U.S. government's making a costly and open-ended commitment.
Let's not pretend that it isn't a big deal or that it'll be self-financing or that it'll work out exactly as planned, because it won't.
What is really unfolding, I suspect, is the scenario that many conservatives feared.
The Obama administration is creating a new entitlement program, which once established will be virtually impossible to rescind.
Why are they doing it?
Because according to Mr. Cassidy, Obamacare serves the twin goals of making the United States a more equitable country and furthering the Democrats' political calculus.
In other words, the purpose is to further redistribute income by putting health care further under government control and in the process make the middle class more dependent on government as the party of government Democrats will benefit over the long run.
That's, well, we don't need some guy from the New Yorker saying this.
We all understand this, but I guess the wall street journal is happy.
They say that somebody with credibility from an Obama supporter saying it makes it more believable.
This writes the journal explains why Nancy Pelosi is willing to risk the seats of so by the way.
Have you noticed how that theory is picked up?
Here it was a couple of weeks ago.
I, L. Rushbow said, Do you blue dog Democrats?
Do you understand something here?
Do you understand what's going on here?
You are supposed to support this and then go home and lose.
She is willing.
And I'll tell you something, the same thing in the Senate.
Uh Clinton's up there today having lunch with the Senate Democrats, and he's aiming right at Blanche Lincoln, and he's aiming right at Ben Nelson.
That's why he's there.
And the story from Obama, and I got I've got a public policy polling story to back this up.
The spin that Obama started, and now this little polling group in California, sorry, North Carolina is furthering, is this.
The message to Democrats is you will be hurt more if health care doesn't pass than if you uh then it then you'll be hurt if it does.
That's what Obama told them last week.
Uh on Friday, that's what Clinton's up there telling him today.
Uh Clinton's gonna tell him, uh, you know, uh uh look at look at what happened to me back in 1993, 94.
We didn't get it done, and that's why the Republicans won Congress.
We didn't get it done.
If we'd have gotten done, if we'd have got something done, the Republicans would not have won Congress.
Now, I think they're dead wrong, but they're trying to they're in fact they know they're wrong, that they're lying to their own members.
They don't care.
Folks, this is so important to get this health care bill.
Because this guy's right, once it's there, it can't be undone.
It won't be rescinded.
What government program ever is, may I X you?
So, they're willing to even lose their majority to get this.
They are willing to lose their majority to get this.
That's how big health care is.
And that is why the leaders I'm talking about, the leaders and Obama on down are happy to get this if it means even if it means losing their majority for a while.
Because once they get this, I mean they're gonna they figured they're gonna get their majority back lickety split.
So the lesson here is you can be as opposed to this as you want, and everybody is.
There's not one poll that shows support for this in a majority.
The majority is opposed to it.
Doesn't matter.
Doesn't matter.
They are going to even sacrifice their majorities to get this.
And another thing, we now know why Obama has not offered his own plan.
We now know why Obama has not even written a sentence.
Because he can say, I didn't write the plan, I signed it, but the Congress did it.
This is Pelosi and Reed and members of Congress.
This is what I meant last week when I was Warning everybody that Obama will throw anybody overboard, even in his own party, to get what he wants.
So in fact, I'll tell you that Obama wouldn't even mind a Republican majority in 2010 in the House, going into 2012 so he can play off of them.
The way Clinton played off in Newt Gingrich with the school lunch program and all that sort of stuff.
So the way Obama's looking at it, he can't lose.
He just needs to get this health care plan.
And he'll sacrifice any member of Congress and any senator to do it.
Uh quick timeout.
We'll be back.
Don't go away.
Hi, welcome back, Rush Limbaugh on the cutting edge of societal evolution.
Great to have you with us.
Telephone number 800-282-2882.
We're gonna get, yeah, more into the uh into this Fort Hood business.
The president just arrived on there with Michelle My Bell to go to the uh memorial.
I uh I've got a soundbite says he's not gonna say anything.
Uh but I'm not sure that that's uh that that's accurate.
He's gonna go to the memorial service.
Yeah, here to go grab number four.
Uh audio sound by number four.
Last night, world news, ABC's World News tonight, Jake Tapper interviewed the president.
We got a lot of sound bites on this.
Uh Jake Tamper says you concerned based on what you know about the case at Fort Hood that the government was not talking to itself uh the way that after 9-11 we tried to ensure that it would.
We are going to complete this investigation, and we are going to take whatever steps are necessary to make sure that something like this doesn't happen again.
Beyond that, I think it's important for me to let the investigation play itself out so that we know exactly what happened, when it happened, how it happened before I as president of the United States commentating.
Yeah, so he's not going to comment on it until all the facts are in, until all of the uh the investigation is completely inappropriate for the uh president of well, what's he gonna say at the memorial today?
If he's gonna say anything.
Next bite he refuses to call it terrorism.
Jake Tapper says, philosophically, what separates an act of violence from an act of terrorism?
In a country of 300 million people, uh there are going to be acts of violence that are inexplicable, even within the extraordinary military that we have.
Uh and I think everybody understands how outstanding the young men and women in uniform are under the most severe stress.
They're going to be instances uh in which uh an individual cracks.
Well, maybe so, but that's not one of them.
This is not this guy didn't crack.
This guy has a history of being seen on the path to blowing up.
I mean, they ignored everything.
It is just uh just he will not say it.
I he will not say it's terrorism.
Who I think that political correctness, there may be other things going on.
Now, I'm also hearing that uh that Obama is gonna personalize this and pay tribute to each of the fallen personally.
Um, and if he does that, that means he's stinging from the criticism of his speech um with uh, you know, to the uh the tribal leaders, where he gave a shout-out to this incident while praising the tribal leaders at that scheduled conference.
It was terrible, it was horrible.
It was it was his out of touch, disconnected from reality, it was insensitive.
It was it was all the things that people thought Obama was not when they uh when they when they elected him.
Uh so uh you know we'll have to just wait and see what he does.
But look, listen to the this the stories that I have on this guy.
Um, just in this stack.
Here's Thomas Lifson at The American Thinker.
Despite the best attempts of the Obama administration and its media clack, very few Americans are buying the narrative that Major Hassan was a lone psycho who snapped.
His PowerPoint presentation, warning of adverse events if Muslims are made to fight in Iraq and Afghanistan has now made its way to the media.
He tried to contact Al-Qaeda.
His radical Imam inspired two of the 9-11 hijackers, for instance.
He had 10 to 20 instances of contact with the radical Imam continuing into this year between 10 and 20.
So the press here is getting uh more creative in finding anything other than Islam's injunction to jihad to blame here.
The New York Times is claiming this is just one and a strong uh string of violent incidents at Fort Hood.
Um that's that this is uh what the left likes to call blaming the victim.
And it it has a double virtue in the Times eyes of slandering soldiers as violent louts.
And boy, you ought to see this New York Times story.
It's all about how there are divorces, there are wife beatings, there are incidents of violence that we never hear about at Fort Hood.
This guy was no different than anybody else, da-da-da-da-da.
They're going out of their way to make sure that the U.S. military is maligned for this.
A respected, veneered institution of freedom and liberty under assault because of political ideology and political correctness.
So when Obama talks today, look for these words by his uh himself and his media lap dogs, tragedy, grief, healing, face the future, unite, strength, blah, blah.
They're gonna hope the the uh the memory of this phase.
That's what they're hoping.
We'll be back.
Yeah, just imagine this, folks.
Imagine if the Fort Hood shooter, Malik Nidal Hassan, was shouting, Jesus Christ, as he uh unloaded fire.
You think there'd be any of these calls to hey, hey, hey, let's not rush to judgment here, let's not.
Imagine if some uh idiot walked into a planned parenthood place and open fire.
Can you imagine there wouldn't be any call for a uh calm and let's not rush to judgment and any no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Let's go back.
Let's listen to Obama.
Answer the question from Jake Tamper, philosophically, what separates an act of violence from an act of terrorism?
In a country of 300 million people, uh, there are going to be acts of violence that are inexplicable, even within the extraordinary military that we have.
Uh, and I think everybody understands how outstanding the young men and women in uniform are under the most severe stress.
They're going to be instances uh in which uh an individual cracks.
Well, that's pretty uh pretty open-minded, refuses to call it terrorism, speculates that the military and military stress made the guy crack.
Well, what about radical Islam?
Obama's having to do with it?
Let's go back July 22nd at the White House, this Obama's famous primetime press conference, and a columnist, Lynn Sweet, Chicago Sun Times.
Mr. President recently, Professor Henry Lewis Gates Jr. was arrested at his home in Cambridge.
What is that incident say to you?
And what does it say about race relations in America?
It's fair to say, number one, any of us would be pretty angry.
Number two, that the Cambridge police uh acted stupidly in arresting somebody when they there was already proof that they were in their own home.
And number three, what I think we know separate and apart from this incident, is that there is a long history in this country of African Americans and Latinos being stopped by law enforcement disproportionately.
That's just a fact.
Just a fact.
That's just a fact.
It's not a fact.
Not for the implicated reason that he or implied reason that he is suggesting there, but there was no hesitation here.
I mean, he didn't think he had to wait for any investigation to play out before condemning the Cambridge police.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
This was why we can see the facts of this plain as day.
We have a racist white cop, uh stupid cop, we have a revered, respected academician Skip Gates, who is in his own home, and he was, of course, besieged upon by bigotry and racism.
The template was there.
We didn't need any investigation for it.
Bam, bam, bam, thank you, ma'am.
However, in this case at Fort Hood, well, we can't jump to conclusions, uh, Mr. Limbois, a lot of factors here, very nuanced situation.
Very, very, very, very, very, very careful.
From the Los Angeles Times.
Nidal, Malik Hassan's contacts with a radical Islamic cleric linked to some of the 9-11 hijackers were investigated but found to be mostly innocuous.
Officials say, Really?
I what about all this talk post-9-11 that we had to start connecting the dots that we didn't properly connect prior to 9-11?
You know, the headline here, Fort Hood suspect was on U.S. radar.
Really, radar.
Well, you know, that's the screen with those little dots on it, the little green dots that appear, and and uh government's supposed to connect those dots on the radar.
And get this, page two of this story.
DOJ, Department of Justice guidelines did not warrant further investigation.
What are we doing to ourselves here?
9-11 never happened?
Or we're going to reframe why it happened and who did it and for what reason?
And somehow it's our fault.
Investigators concluded that Hassan's activities did not warrant a more formal investigation, even though the Imam had ties to Al-Qaeda operatives, and was the author of a popular website espousing jihadist activity.
I have some of what he posted on that website about jihadist activity.
The officials also said Hassan's emails to the uh radical imam appeared mostly innocuous, not worthy of further investigation or monitoring under Justice Department guidelines.
Uh this make you feel safer out there, folks.
From Reuters, tireless defenders of the faith at Reuters, Fort Hood suspect contacted Islamist, U.S. intelligence agencies, learned an army psychiatrist contacted an Islamist sympathetic to Al-Qaeda.
They relayed the information to authorities before the man allegedly went on a shooting spree that killed 13 people in Texas last week.
While the agencies were monitoring contacts by Anwar Allawki, the uh fiery anti-American Imam in Yemen, who sympathized with Al-Qaeda, they came across some communications late last year with the shooting suspect, Hassan.
They said the uh information was given to federal authorities who determined Hassan's writings were largely consistent with his academic work, offering no hint that he was planning an attack or was following orders from anybody.
The 10 to 20 communications between Hassan and the cleric continued into 2009.
That prompted authorities to look into Hassan, but they decided the matter did not warrant an investigation.
In August 2009, Hassan purchased two firearms that he used to carry out the attack, but the government officials said the U.S. law does not permit them to connect that purchase information with any other intelligence they had.
What?
He doing to ourselves.
What in the world are we doing to ourselves?
Now I guess a lot of this is shocking to a lot of people.
Unless you've been sitting up and taking notice for the last 10 years or so, all they said was the information was given to federal authorities who determined that Hassan's writings were largely consistent with his academic work.
Sad thing is that might very well be true these days.
And here is the I'm not going to read it all to you, but 44 ways to support jihad.
This is this uh Imam from his website, February 5th of this year.
Um the ten of them here are listed on the PDF file.
We'll ignore the other 33, but you have to accept the fact that this radical imam is not a terrorist, and a recruiter of terrorists, and a fundraiser for terrorists.
And if that's true, if this radical Imam is himself not a terrorist, not a recruiter of terrorists, and not a fundraiser for terrorists, then the term terrorist has no meaning.
And I think that's what this administration is headed for.
The word terrorist has no meaning.
They've already stricken the word terror from war on terror.
You can't use it.
Government officials cannot talk about war on terror, and yet a major in the U.S. Army of Palestinian extraction and Muslim persuasion raised no concerns when he repeatedly corresponded with a radical pro-Al Qaeda Imam.
Those charged with protecting our security, quote, decided the matter did not warrant an investigation, close quote.
That is criminally irresponsible.
This is criminally irresponsible.
FBI, whoever it is, Department of Justice.
Washington Post.
Story by Dana Priest.
Fort Hood suspect warned of threats within the ranks, cited stress facing Muslims.
Hassan spoke at Walter Reed in 2007.
He stood before his supervisors and about 20 other mental health staff members and lectured on Islam, suicide bombers, and threats the military could encounter from Muslims conflicted about fighting in the Muslim countries of Iraq and Afghanistan.
It's getting harder and harder for Muslims in the service to morally justify being in a military that seems constantly engaged against fellow Muslims.
It was really strange, said one staff member who attended the presentation and spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the investigation of Hassan.
The senior doctors looked really upset at the end.
These medical presentations occurred each Wednesday, and other students had lectured on new medications and treatment of specific mental illness.
Now, folks, uh this guy was not hiding.
He was not on the radar, he was on stage.
This guy was waving his arms.
This guy was shouting, notice me, notice me, notice me.
He wasn't on anybody's radar.
The final three slides indicate that Hassan referred to Osama bin Laden, the Taliban, suicide bombers, and Iran.
Under a slide titled Comments, he wrote, If Muslims can convince Muslims that they are fighting for God against injustices of the infidels, i.e., enemies of Islam, then Muslims can become a potent adversary, suicide bombing, etc.
The last bullet point on that page reads simply, We love death more than you love life.
This isn't his presentation.
Radar, he's on stage.
Under the conclusions page, Hassan wrote that fighting to establish an Islamic state to please God, even by force, is condoned by Islam, and that Muslim soldiers should not serve in any capacity that renders them at risk to hurting killing believers unjustly.
The final page of his presentation, labeled recommendations, contained one suggestion.
Department of Defense should allow Muslim soldiers the option of being released as conscientious objectors to increase troop morale and decrease adverse events.
Here we go.
Conscientious objectors, so it's the military's fault.
why why Could not connect the dots on this one.
They couldn't connect the dots.
They couldn't connect the dots on stage.
Dots, we don't even have dots.
We've got words.
We've got communications with a radical Imam.
We've got his own website.
We've got the purchase of guns.
We've got people willingly putting their head in the sand, looking the other way, hoping against hope that this was just not what it was.
For whatever reasons.
Be right back.
As I said yesterday, ladies and gentlemen, the umajor Hassan attended the radical Imam's mosque in False Church, Virginia, a number of times, along with two of the 9-11 hijackers.
And I guess I guess that just like Obama did not ever hear a word, Reverend Wright said, that Major Hassan never heard a word while in the mosque of this radical Imam.
Now do you remember back in May when the abortion doctor George Tiller was murdered?
They immediately, Eric Holder and Obama immediately sent federal marshals to protect other abortion centers, and Obama spoke out within minutes to condemn the action in no uncertain terms.
Here was the statement of the Attorney General on the murder of Dr. Tiller.
The murder of Dr. George Tiller is an abhorrent act of violence.
His family is in our thoughts and prayers at this tragic moment.
Federal law enforcement is coordinating with local law enforcement officials in Kansas on the investigation of this crime.
I have directed the U.S. Marshals Service to offer protection to other appropriate people and facilities around the nation.
The Department of Justice will work to bring the perpetrator of this crime to justice.
As a precautionary measure, we will also take appropriate steps to help prevent any related acts of violence from occurring.
They immediately dispatch the marshals to abortion clinics all over the country.
Obama spoke within minutes.
This was not an attack on Fort Hood.
Just like 9-11 was not an attack on New York City.
This was an attack on America and one of its great institutions.
And it's not isolated.
There have been a spate of these things.
Arkansas, Fort Dix.
There are people willing to look the other way for whatever scary reasons here.
All right, let's uh let's go to the phones.
People have been holding for a while.
South Windsor, Connecticut, and George, you're up first.
Great to have you here on the EIB network.
Yeah, Rush, mega farting diddos.
Thank you, sir.
But anyway, you know, uh the liberals have been telling us for years dealing with these fanatics.
Oh, let's we can get along with them.
Let's just talk to them.
Let's just negotiate with them.
We we can talk them into not wanting to kill us.
Well, the federal government paid six figures for this guy's education, gave him a six-figure salary, and what did he do, Rush?
He killed us anyway.
So where's the negotiating with these bad guys?
Well, that's a that's a liberal.
Look at look at look at Obama's doing the same thing with Iran.
Obama's doing the same thing with Iran.
Oh, okay, we'll look the other way here, we'll look the other way there.
We don't mean you any harm.
We really don't mean you any harm.
They really do believe uh that it's hard for people to accept this.
But there are people in this country who hate it.
There are people in this country who believe that the reason for all war, the reason for all angst, the reason for all confrontation is us and our size and our power.
That we have been colonial, that we have been imperialistic, that we have conquered and stolen all of the world's resources, and we have enriched ourselves and left the rest of the world in abject poverty.
And so we are a bad nation and we are evil, and that's why people hate us.
And they work at the highest levels of government after 9-11.
The State Department convened a seminar.
What did we do to make them mad?
What is it about us they don't like?
So as difficult as it may be to believe, there are people, and Obama's one of them.
There are people in this country who believe we are at fault, and therefore the mission has to be to show these people that we mean them no harm, and that's and we'll even apologize for our transgressions in the past as a means of showing you how sincere we are.
We know the country prior to my becoming president, it was a bad place.
But now that I'm here, you can check our record in the last nine months.
We haven't attacked anybody, we haven't insulted anybody, we haven't offended anybody.
I'm running around the world apologizing for our country, for my country, to show you that we don't mean you any harm.
Now we understand your grievance against us, but we want to have a family of nations throughout this world where there really aren't even any countries.
I want to run it, he says, but we don't even want any countries.
We just want a unified world, peaceful, loving and so forth, and I get 10% of everything we generate from the taxes of all citizens of the world back in a second.
Let me remind you of something and and run something above you.
Our government officials uh always go to great pains to say that this is not a war against Islam.
Obama said it, Harry Holder, all these people.
The real Muslims, they say, strongly opposed to violence.
Real Muslims are strongly opposed to it.
If this is so obviously true, why is it even necessary to have to say it?
Why aren't the recruiting centers overflowing with Muslims who are offended at how these extremists are perverting and defaming their sacred religion?
Why aren't they?
Why aren't they reporting suspicious activity by extremists in their neighborhoods and mosques?
Why aren't they fighting these extremists in their own countries?
Let me put it to you another way.
Imagine if there were suddenly a sect of radical Quakers.
Richard Nixon was a Quaker.
Imagine if there was uh a sect of radical Quakers suddenly came to think that they should make everyone else become Quakers, and if they didn't become Quakers, they're gonna kill them.
Wouldn't other Quakers rise up and try to stop them?
Wouldn't they at least denounce them?
Turn them into the authorities?
Yet they're going to great pains to say this is not a war against Islam.
Real Muslims are strongly opposed to violence.
Uh these people running this country must have so much guilt and so much animosity toward this country.
The only thing that can explain this.
