Time Text
You know, folks, uh, David Pluff.
David Pluff, worried about me and Sarah Palin traveling around the country purging the Republican Party of these moderate rhinos.
That's not what they're worried about.
Me and Palin purging.
Let me tell you what Pluff, Obama, Pelosi, let me tell you what they're worried about.
They are worried that I am going to purge the blue dogs.
They're worried that I'm going to knock the blue dogs off and get them to vote against health care in the final analysis when it happens, Blue Dog Senate Democrats and so forth.
That's they're they're afraid of blue dogs losing elections.
Next uh next November, they're not afraid in on it.
In fact, they would love if this party were taken over fully by the Rhinos.
They'd be in perpetual power, the Democrats would.
Anyway, greetings and uh and welcome back.
Rush Limboy here on the EIB Network.
Great to have you with us.
Telephone numbers 800-282-2882 and the uh email address L Rushbow at EIBNet.com.
Folks, we have reached a tipping point in vulgarity, perhaps.
President Clinton has once again demeaned himself by using a phrase describing a perverse sexual act, teabagging as an attack and slur on Americans he used to lead.
We're talking about Americans who do not engage in vulgar sexual acts.
Uh as President Clinton has engaged in.
If anybody's close to being a teabagger, it's President Clinton.
These are people who are standing on the shoulders of Americans' original patriots, those who led the revolt against a tax on tea, which preceded the American revolution.
And that's the problem.
The Tea Parties are protests by Americans who object to an intrusive government.
A government which is confiscating private property under the threat of punishment, incarceration.
These people, you people, you Tea Partiers, people like me, Sarah Palin, we have to be destroyed.
We represent something very dangerous.
Individualism.
American exceptionalism.
There's some serious irony at play here.
Americans who object to central planning, a loss of liberty, and unreasonable taxes are demeaned by a former impeached president using a sexually perverse phrase, who as a married man had an affair with an intern, an affair that became famous for the creative use of a cigar, phone sex, and semen on a blue dress.
And he's out there calling us teabaggers.
Here we have a sexual predator, Bill Clinton, hailed for the left.
And by the left for these sexual perversions using a vulgar sexual phrase against law-abiding Americans exercising the constitutional rights President Clinton once swore to uphold.
Courageous, ironic, deeply disappointing.
Of course, this demonstrates the esteem President Clinton, anyone else who uses that vulgar phrase has for their audience.
We have no evidence that Democrats are offended by anyone using the phrase teabagging, but macaca?
Ho ho!
Makaka, we gotta drive George Allen out of politics.
He used the word macaca.
But President Clinton can run around and call us teabaggers.
Without consequence.
Yeah, Clinton talked to the Democrats yesterday.
He urged them to give, I mean, he turned them into kamikaze party yesterday.
Bill Clinton treated the Democrat senators as as kamikaze pilots.
He ordered them to get in their Japanese zeros and fly them into the nearest aircraft carrier.
Clinton said, uh, yeah, yeah, you know, the reason the teabaggers are so inflamed is because we're winning.
We have sound bites.
Uh this is President Clinton.
After he spoke with the Democrats, a reporter said, What did you tell them in there?
The worst thing to do is nothing.
One of the things that I think most Americans don't know is that under all versions of this, everybody already has health insurance, not only knows they can't lose it now, but they get to keep their kids on the insurance policy until they're 26 years old.
There's more for mammograms, more for prostate cancer.
There are a whole range of insurance reforms where the benefits flow immediately as we work up toward universal coverage and work out the financing and the costs and all that.
It's not important to be perfect here.
It's important to act, to move, to start the ball rolling to claim the evident advantages that all these plans agree with.
Well, now in addition to none of that being true, there is a big contradiction here.
He says we gotta get going.
Pass it now, pass it whatever you can.
Just pass it.
Here, listen next bite, and I'll give you my analysis.
That's up to them to decide.
The opposition is already been generated.
But if the support gets disenchanted and the turnout goes down, and you the surveys don't get anything because you're at a structural disadvantage.
So I think I think it is good politics to pass this and to pass it as soon as they can.
But I think the most important thing is it is the right thing for America.
The worst thing to do is nothing.
No, no.
In fact, the best thing to do right now would be nothing.
Nothing equals stopping this.
Stopping this, stopping this equals doing nothing right now.
Then we can do our own reforms.
We don't need to do this now.
But Clinton wants this done now.
Just do it, do it, and you know, every year add on.
Every year amend it every year, add something else every year, then you get the universal this and you get the universal that, and you get the public option, you gotta do it, gotta do it now.
Why?
Seems to me Clinton understand this.
Clinton went in there, and he told these Democrats that the only way they're gonna keep their seats is if they pass health care.
There have been three stages of Clinton.
When he lost health care in 1993, 94, he uh he blamed it on we just you know, we went to too fudge too much too soon, you know, all one big basket, then he blamed it on the Republicans in Congress, and he blamed it on three different things, but he didn't blame anything on the fact he didn't get it passed.
Not once did he say the Republicans were elected because I didn't pass health care.
The truth is the Republicans were elected for a host of reasons, among them Bill Clinton tried for health care, used Hillary to do it, and nobody liked her.
So now all of a sudden Obama goes up and talks to the Democrats in the House, Clinton goes, talks to the Democrat in the Senate, and both guys tell the Democrats, you're gonna be worse off if you don't pass this.
The only way that you can get re-elected is to pass it.
We've lost the Republicans, they're ginned up, their opposition to this is clear what it is.
You gotta turn out your base, you gotta go and vote, you gotta pass this.
Now, if this is such a winner, if this is such a winner, if if he is such a certain mind that that health care reform will be the biggest winner Democrat candidates next year, why is he telling Congress to pass it now?
Why not wait till next year?
Close to the elections.
It'll be fresh in people's minds when they go to the polls.
Because it's all predicated on the fact people want this, right?
Well, the polls don't say that.
Polls say most people don't want this.
The fringe Democrat base may want it, and the Democrats are gonna need their base to turn out and vote for them, but this is a kamikaze party.
Bill Clinton's advising these guys to basically go out and throw themselves overboard.
He's lying to them.
Obama's lying to him.
See, the the fact is that Clinton realizes most people are against it.
So the Democrats had better pass it as soon as possible and hope that everybody forgets about it by November 2010.
Democrats only gave up on Hillary care in late September in 94.
Don't forget this.
The Democrats frantically tried to distance themselves from the effort in the run-up to the elections.
But it was too recent.
Everybody was still painfully aware what the Democrats had just tried to pull when they went to the polls.
By the way, we're supposed to believe the Clinton Democrat media spin that the Democrats only got wiped out in 94 because they didn't pass health care reform.
People just aren't that irrational.
The Democrats are, but people aren't.
Now they're all in for Obama.
Gotta get this passed.
If you don't pass this, uh, you gonna certain defeat.
Everybody knew it was the Republicans who had stopped Hillary care.
So why would the voters turn around and reward the very party that had stopped something they wanted so badly?
Utilise the delusional state these people are in in order to persuade their allies to get this done.
If the American people in 1994 so wanted health care, why wouldn't they have voted in still more Democrats to make sure it passed the next time around?
It's not what happened.
They threw Democrats out, Republicans took control of place for the first time in 40 years.
This is revisionist.
This is Orwellian, in fact.
Orwellian, you know, screwed Nostradamus.
George Orwell called everything.
He called every he called news speak, he called Big Brother, and he called history revisionism.
Statists sat in there and revised history books to take out all the stuff that the statists didn't want in.
And this is exactly what Clinton's doing now.
And by the way, ditto Hillary Clinton over there at the Brandenburg Gate.
I don't care what your politics, how you can not mention Ronald Reagan, a former president of the United States, who was instrumental in the fall of Soviet communism.
How you cannot mention him.
And still say that you are for a unified America is beyond me.
How you can go over there and you can praise the current president who was barely reaching puberty when all that happened.
And probably regrets that it did.
You mention him, you don't mention Thatcher.
She's right there, just a you know a couple countries away in Europe.
You don't mention Pope John Paul II, who was a huge role in it.
You don't do these people, folks, they are 1984.
They are Sololinsky, they're Abby Hoffman, they are the 60s radical bunch, and they have finally got their arms around this country.
And they're gonna run it into the ground.
We had a brief timeout.
Sit tight, right?
Back.
And we're back, El Rushbo's serving humanity.
How?
Simply by showing up.
Uh essentially serving humanity simply by breathing and exhaling with vocal vibrations.
800-282-2882.
Mr. Snerdley and Cookie up in New York are pleading with me to play excerpts of the uh 25th anniversary hour I did with the KFBK Sacramento yesterday, and it was fun.
It was uh uh it was it was a a great trip down memory lane.
Uh being there 25 years ago and for three and a half years, and uh Stan Atkinson, good friend of mine, Dale Carlson, a sleep train came in as surprise guests, and it really was a lot of fun.
It was really it was commercial free.
They had uh uh every had some local news in there, but they they had uh a couple of segments of uh quick soundbite excerpts of me over the years.
And I'm conflicted, uh I'm conflicted because the people of Sacramento heard it.
We've got the whole thing on the website at Rush Limbaugh.
What are you saying?
You know what I mean, play some of it anyway.
I I have uh everybody's just in there to play some of it.
Okay, but see, it's not about the issues.
I mean, it's uh just about me.
All right, I'll play some in the next half hour.
I'll play some sound bites in the next half hour.
The whole thing is at Rush Limbaugh.com.
I was reading my genuine hometown newspaper today, the Southeast Missourian, Cabe Gerardo.
And there is a uh it's it's either a letter to the editor or it is a column by a local resident, William Pearcy Sr.
Mr. Obama, I'm calling you out.
Now, this is Heartland America, folks.
This is about H1N1, and that you know the hysteria has disappeared.
Have you noticed the hysteria has disappeared from the dry price?
We had a national emergency.
We had what's your name, Sabelius?
And who else was out there every day to you gotta go do this?
You gotta go get the now There's no news about it at all.
And that's because the government has totally botched it.
They have no vaccine.
There's a shortage.
And so the Obama government has stopped all the faxes and emails to the media to keep the hysteria going.
They've dialed it back now because they don't want people to think it's a hysteria anymore, or that there's even an emergency because there's no vaccine.
The new era of government control over our lives and freedoms has begun.
This week it got personal, and I felt helpless.
The doctor overseeing my health care advised me to get an H1N1 flu shot.
I've been under a six-year treatment program for a chronic infection, plus I have heart and lung problems.
Therefore, I'm considered a high risk.
Fortunately, my doctor had three shots available, but I get this now.
this.
The doctor had three shots.
His doctors got three shots of the vaccine, but I would have to get approval from the county health department.
Much to my surprise, the woman at the health department apologized and told me that even though I was a senior citizen in high risk, the health department had been instructed to approve shots only for children Folks, in this vaccine, we've already got rationing of health care.
And the doctor has to tell the patient to get approval from a county health board.
Already, without the passage of this monstrosity, we can already see the failure of government health care in this vaccine program.
Can you imagine going into your doctor?
He's got three vaccines, and you got to call a county health department?
You got to call a bureaucrat for approval?
So Mr. Pearcy did that.
And the health department had been instructed to approve shots only for children and pregnant mothers.
I uh I asked when a shot for my situation might be available.
We really don't know.
Check back with us sometime in December.
What?
Terrorist attaines at Gitmore are getting shots this month.
Why not a high-risk senior citizen, Mr. Obama?
This is what we call health care rationing, which you claim won't happen under a government-run health care program.
If George W. Bush was considered the Barney Fife of executive power, then welcome to the Chicago-style politics of the new Vito Corleone family.
The president himself, like a strong-armed enforcer, said in a nationally televised speech, if you misrepresent anything in this plan, I will call you out.
This administration has turned the once dignified and esteemed oval orifice into a war room for its liberal propaganda on his first day in office.
The president signed the ethics commitments by executive branch personnel executive order.
During the campaign, he vowed to keep lobbyists out of the administration.
But in section three of this order is a waiver clause.
The director of the Office of Management and Budget may grant a written waiver of any restriction.
Former lobbyists were given waivers and now hold key positions in government.
Mr. Obama, you lied.
At the same time, lobbyists were coming in the front door.
Dozens of new unvetted hand-picked ideologues are being shuttled in the back door.
Many of these people were placed in key policy making decisions.
Citizen Collins in Maine was worried about 18 of these unvetted czars, ten of whom worked in the White House.
An amendment to force these appointees to testify was shot down by Democrat leadership.
Collins was especially concerned about Carol Browner, who negotiated fuel economy standards with the car companies.
She even sent a letter to Obama, and one of his counsels replied that no one would be made available.
The administration fears no one, especially a senator who dares to enforce something as minor as checks and balances.
Obama promised transparency.
He lied.
On the topic of transparency.
The $787 billion stimulus bill was a progressive Trojan horse.
It's loaded with political favors and programs that set up the infrastructure for education, health care, and climate change.
It was passed and signed in a matter of weeks.
This was not a bill to put Americans back to work.
Obama said it would produce three and a half million jobs in two years.
Over the past year, the administration has changed its story daily.
Finally settled on the creator saved propaganda.
Obama said the bill would keep unemployment under 8%.
The rate has climbed to over 10%.
Either his economic advisors are incompetent and need to be fired, or once again, Mr. Obama, you lied.
Mr. President, you said you didn't want to run our car companies and banks, but you do.
With the $350 billion in TARP money left by President Bush, Obama's people continued the surge of bailouts.
Americans might be shocked to know the recipients of the bailout money now total 727 institutions.
This government controlled in the private sector is unprecedented.
Government run health care, card check, cap and trade, net neutrality, control of radio stations, and possible newspaper bailouts are just part of this administration's agenda.
It's time for the American people to get in this government's face and call it out.
This coup d'etat can be defeated.
We have the numbers, the votes, the will power to turn back this assault on our individual freedoms.
With 15 million unemployed Americans, I'm sure we can find a few willing patriots to fill all those upcoming vacant seats in Washington, especially with an annual salary of 170,000, office staff insurance expense account, and best of all, a three-day workweek.
The only requirement for this job are honesty, integrity, and love of country.
Mr. Obama, I'm calling you out.
There's a lot of anger, and there's a lot of fear in the hinterlands, the heartland of this country about this duping that we've had on this swine flu vaccine.
The White House stopped feeding the drive-bys their hysteria email of the day, and so they stopped covering the story.
You know, every TV and radio newscast for months it led, and now they've been found out to be the incompetent jerks we knew they were, so the spin is silent.
And the drive-byers are too stupid to figure out that they have a real good story here.
Government screwing up royally in vaccinating people against a declared emergency, a government-declared emergency.
Health department to get approval for a vaccine.
Now that last column letter to the editor I read was from the Southeast Missourian today by a senior citizen who lives in my hometown, Cape Girardo, Missouri.
And he's been advised by his doctor to get uh the swine flu vaccine, and he went in there, and the doctor had three vaccines, and the doctor said you got to call a county health department.
Folks, this is a death panel.
If we are to believe that there is a national emergency, and they've declared one with swine flu.
This man had to call a county health department, and the county health department said, Nope, uh, only pregnant uh women and young children.
Oh, okay, when can I get mine?
We don't know when we'll get any more.
Check back with us in December.
What if he gets the swine flu between now and then?
Now, where does the where does where does the county health department get its marching orders?
Who do you think tells the county health department who they can approve and not approve to get swine flu vaccine?
Kathleen Sabilus.
The health and human services secretary in the Obama administration.
No other way to look at this.
Rationed care death panel.
All right, let me grab a couple phone calls here.
Kelsey in uh in Hurricane Utah.
Oh, by the way, speaking of that, the remnants of Hurricane Tropical Storm Ida are just pounding parts of the southeastern coast and the eastern seaboard.
And I have spies in these places.
Lots of friends they say there's not one media person on site to report the carnage.
Not one.
Even the locals are not out there telling people it's raining.
All right, Kelsey in Hurricane Utah.
Hello.
Hello, Rush.
How are you today?
Fine and dandy, thank you.
Hey, it's great to talk to you.
Uh real quick, uh, I wanted to get back to the uh the CNN reporter.
Yeah.
And how he was describing uh Nadal Hassan's religion.
Now, am I remembering correctly?
Did he use the word conservative?
Yeah, conservative Muslim.
Well, you know, normally, if if you would want to describe his actions, wouldn't you kind of use a different word?
Wouldn't you say radical or nut job or traitor or extremist?
No, but it see, we are the extremists.
Obama's calling us the extremists.
This guy's a mainstream uh Islamo fascist.
But you know your point is well taken.
Look, they call uh the media calls Mamun Ahmadini's on the Mullahs, the conservative leadership in Iran.
Yeah.
Well, you know, I think that's a good thing.
We're the enemy this big marketing.
You know, we are we are labeling, we are marketing, we are using rhetoric and trying to convince people that that the duck that's walking like a duck and quacking like a duck is not a duck.
Well, if um I know.
But see, what you have to understand is we're the enemy.
We're the ones that need protection against backlashes.
Not Muslims.
Muslim backlash in this country is hardly any hate crimes against Muslims compared to other religions.
Okay.
Uh by popular demand.
Here's some excerpts from the 25th anniversary show, KFBK Sacramento.
Now, set this up.
I was there, got there in October of 1984, and it was my last shot at radio, and I was insistent that I'd be able to do it my way to find out if I could be the reason people listen to the radio, not an endless parade of guests that didn't care about whether I succeeded or not.
So forth.
And uh that was the first place in all my career after having left home that you know I had established roots, was a member of the community.
You know, Pittsburgh and Sacramento are the are the two uh places.
Well, I can't leave out Kansas City either because it was there ten years.
But Sacramento really was was uh had more friends there than anywhere else, and uh uh it w actually became a member of the compu uh community rather than just a uh you know a passing personality, a vagabond climbing the ladder of success.
So uh Kitty O'Neill, who was my call screener there, was the uh was the co-host among Tom Sullivan, who was one of my good friends there.
And she said that Rush, you came.
How long do you remember that Morton Downey Jr. had been gone that you came into KFBK?
I replaced Morton Johnny Jr. because he had told a ethnic joke about a member of the city council and he refused to apologize for it, so they zapped him, and I was in there to replace him.
There's a name here that I have to mention.
Uh he has he passed away San Francisco.
His name is Norman Woodruff.
And uh Norman was uh consulting a radio station in Kansas City, which um fired me for being too controversial.
I was doing commentaries about the 84 Democrat primaries, and they didn't like that.
So but Norman was consulting that station, he was there after I'd been gone for uh a week or a week and a half uh trying to find another job.
He called me at home and asked me how I'd like to be a star in California.
And I said, Whoa, star of California, where is it?
He says, I'm not gonna tell you until you say yes.
And I said, Well, this is not good.
It must not be Los Angeles or San Francisco.
He said Sacramento, and then he he laid out what the job would be and what the opportunity would be.
And uh you know, I weighed it pretty heavily because I'd never been to California.
I'd never been there.
It was um you know, it was a frightening thing, but I said, Okay, I'm I'll uh I'll do it.
And Norm Woodruff is the man uh singularly most responsible for watching my back and making sure that the way I wanted to do my show out there happened.
There was all kinds of pressure when I got there to have guests and to do a formulaic talk show like everybody else in the business was doing, and I had I told Norma that I wanted to find out if I, once and for all, could be the reason people listen to the radio.
I didn't want to invest in a bunch of guests that didn't care about my success, any aspect of my success.
He had a guy named Bruce Marr, who came in later, really had my back on this, and one of the most fortunate things that happened was that shortly after I got there, the management stole from I I even forget the name of the station.
There was a competing talk station across town.
They stole the morning team, Dave and Bob.
And of course, when they got Dave and Bob, uh for for those of you sophisticated listeners, most of you are, the morning show is where everybody focuses their attention.
That's what matters.
That's prime time in radio.
So they forgot about me.
They forgot about the formula, they forgot about what I was doing, they were focusing everything on Dave and Bob, which is the best thing that could have happened to me because then I had three to four months to establish myself, and when the ratings came out after the first three or four months, they were better than I'd ever had anywhere.
And so Norms, you know, having my back and just the natural uh uh flow of events there allowed all this to happen as it did.
And if it if it hadn't been for you know, Dave Dave and Bob being hired and Norman Woodruff, none of the rest of this would have happened.
Because I wouldn't have cut it as a host who had to have guests.
I would have I would have blended into the crowd and been uh you know no different than anybody else.
So then uh this is Dale Carlson.
Uh he is the owner of Sleep Train, and he was the first sponsor that had the courage and guts to let the controversial Rush Limbaugh endorse his product.
Uh And I still do.
I still do his commercials out in Sacramento.
But here's that segment.
Rush, one of the very first radio remotes I ever went to was with you.
And it was in the Thomas, and it was this store that was only one of them at the time.
It was called the Sleep Train.
Remember that?
And in studio, we do have Mr. Dale Carlson.
Hey, Rush, how are you doing?
Dale, how are you, my man?
I'm doing fantastic, thanks to you.
Did you single-handedly do this too, Rush?
Did you make it He did, he did.
Without Rush, I wouldn't be where I'm at today.
Well, you know something.
I was talking about this on the radio today when I was mentioning I was going to be doing this hour on KFBK.
I figured out after talking to Sullivan, as Sullivan was the business guy, the money guy, and we'd sit around and just chew the fat about radio, and and finally it dawned on me, or he mentioned to me, you're gonna have to find your way into the revenue stream.
You've got to put your name, your hand on X amount of dollars you generate that'll give you ratings insurance and so forth.
And out of the blue, there was a salesman first named Frank, forget his last name came to me.
Frank Bush.
That's right.
Frank Bush.
And he said that there's this guy with a with a mattress store and wants to uh wants to advertise.
And I went out and I met Dale, and uh I I just jumped at the opportunity to do it because I mean it was called sleep train.
I mean, it was just it was made to order for this.
And at the time, you guys, you remember, I mean, there was a lot of controversy, and and Dale was getting a lot of heat from people.
I am never gonna shop at your store as long as you use the limbaugh.
He stuck with it.
And uh that begot a whole bunch of others like it, and this kind of success I'd never had.
Uh and I'd never had that kind of investment by a sponsor in me specifically, and in my talent, and I've never forgotten it.
The the all that stuff, every everything that you can remember and bring up, even what that I may have forgotten that happened in Sacramento, was crucial.
It was just without doubt, everything that happened out there was what prepared me for what happened later on.
That's why I call it my adopted hometown.
It was the first place in my whole life, except my hometown, where I really felt like a member of the community, like it actually had roots out there.
I was only there three and a half years, and I look back on it, and I still feel like I've lived there longer than I have anywhere else.
Interesting, and you know, Rush, to have somebody uh in a commercial venture just starting out, put their eggs in your basket, and despite all the controversy, keep them there and uh stand by you.
It really it paid off in so many ways, but I think just it was so encouraging for you, as you just said when you were just starting out.
And and look at look at how it's turned out.
Sleep train.
How many sleep trains do you have, Dale?
About 230 stores and different brands and so forth.
But you know, Rush he's done the same thing for me.
When he left town to go to New York, you know, he told me, Dale, the people meet on the way up, same people meet on the way down, and always take care of you, and the man's been true to his word, and you've continued to just be a godsend to meet Rush and a great friend, and I appreciate everything you've done.
Well, vice versa.
Thanks, thank you.
That's right.
He started with one store, one store in Sacramento, California.
He's got two hundred to thirty of them now, all up and down the left coast.
And they're not all called sleep trains.
They're they're different, they're different names, but uh it was it was a fun hour.
We've got let's see, there's uh there's one more with Stan Atkinson.
There's two more.
There's two more going on, but I got folks.
Uh I may have to put off a couple of them until tomorrow.
But we'll we'll get those other two at cookie if if I don't get them to them to get to them today, keep them on the roster for uh for tomorrow.
Folks, the liberties and freedoms.
I want to get back to the issues here.
The liberties and freedoms defined in our Constitution are under attack.
You know, there's a very telling quote from Obama's book, The Audacity of Hope.
That has uh that has been a foreshadowing of what I I told you to expect.
Schnurley was reminding me that I predicted all this economic disaster when I heard about the stimulus package way back in January and February.
And predicted a lot of other things.
I told you to expect this.
Here is Obama's quote from his book.
I have to side with Justice Breyer's view of the Constitution.
That it's not static, but rather a living document that must be read in the context of an ever-changing world.
Now, contrast that with what you know about the Constitution and what most Americans think they know about it.
The Heritage Foundation is one organization that will always defend the Constitution.
One of the One of the uh great thinkers at the Heritage Foundation, Dr. Matthew Spaulding has written and just released a book.
It's called We Still Hold These Truths.
Thoughtfully passionately explains how and why our first principles, the founding principles are still relevant.
And when you become a member of the Heritage Foundation, if you do it this week, make a $50 contribution in the process, that's what gets you a membership.
You'll get a copy of the book.
So go online to Askheritage.org, become a member this week.
It's always a good time to support our freedoms and liberties.
And now you get the benefit of Matthew Spaulding's book to work towards that end.
Askheritage.org is where it all starts.
Yeah, you know, everybody wants to be like me.
And I am a member of the Heritage Foundation, and you should be too.
All right, try some of these headlines.
I don't have time to get into all this.
Gay activists launch boycott of Democrats.
Obamacamp was sourced for Edwin's uh Edwards haircut story.
A infamous uh report about uh Edward's four hundred dollar haircut came from Obama campaign opposition research.
That's in Salat Don Salon.com.

Um, but and the only thing I have to stand up and believe in right now is that there's a couple of good old American senators, Democrats, who are looking at this and going, I've got to make the biggest vote of my entire Senate career on this vote right here.
Um, and that's scary, and that's all I've got to believe in right now, it feels like who are the two senators.
No, I say two.
I don't know, the blue dogs, you know.
Call them what we want, but that's what's that's all we have to go on right now.

But you're looking for a couple of good senators among Democrats?
