Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 247 podcast.
Well, let's see.
Would you call what happened to Air America jobs lost or uh well you'd have to say jobs lost.
Why couldn't Obama save those jobs?
Air America, Chapter 7.
Fine.
I thought talk radio was so easy.
Greetings, my friends.
Rush Limbaugh, the sole survivor.
Despite the kitchen sink, they continue to throw equity.
Live from the Southern Command in sunny South Florida.
It's open line Friday.
And we look forward to speaking to you today, as um.
Probably should explain for those of you who are new to the program Monday through Thursday when we go to the phones.
The callers have to be talking about things I've brought up or that interest me.
Because I don't want to sound bored.
If I sound bored, then nobody will listen.
But on Friday, uh-huh.
Different story.
Take a huge career risk.
We go to the phones.
Whatever callers wish to discuss, they get free to discuss.
So here's the number 800-282-28282-2882.
It is a golden opportunity.
Um golden opportunity for those of you who think something hasn't been discussed, should be.
Yeah, I guess you know there's something we might want to do today.
Uh we've done this in the past.
We will move uh former Air America listeners to the top of the um, but certainly there aren't any.
I mean, that's see, that's the whole problem.
Uh there never were any.
If we get one, it'll be the only one.
Or if we got somebody claiming to be an Air America listener, uh, they're gonna have a damn hard time proving it to me.
Anyway, here number 800.
Uh no, you don't have to be an Air America listener to insult me in 30 seconds.
Every liberal does that.
That's no claim to fame by an Air America listener.
I just I'm just stunned Obama couldn't save these jobs, folks.
I'm just I'm just stunned.
I really am.
Did you see that the Club Gidmo's still open?
One year later.
Greg Craig, who has ordered with closing the place down, has been canned.
Uh and it's been uh you've been let go, and from a suddenly understanding Washington Post now.
Justice Task Force recommends about 50 Gontanamo detainees be held indefinitely.
A Justice Department led task force has concluded that nearly 50 of the 196 detainees at Guantanamo Bay should be held indefinitely without trial under the laws of war.
Oh, it's fine now.
It's fine to keep it open, and it's fine to keep them incarcerated with no trials.
We had to close it when Bush was president, but the Washington Post now suddenly understands the gravity of the situation.
I was reading about this Conan O'Brien J. Leno thing at uh at NBC, and one thing really stood out under the deal, which came seven months after O'Brien took the ransom Leno, O'Brien will get more than 33 million dollars, NBC said.
The rest will go to his 200 strong staff in Severance.
Now here's a guy that has a one-hour a night television show and has a staff of 200.
A staff of 200.
We do a three-hour radio program every day, and we do it with less than ten people.
To do actual show research and so forth.
I'm not talking about the sales staff, but that 200 strong staff is not his sales staff either.
200 staff people.
I wonder how many of them are uh are writers.
Umrated.
Oh, yeah, like you guys are overrated, highly overrated staff, yeah.
Well, um, you know the Hollywood storyline.
I'm gonna I'm gonna start off talking about uh Obama, uh ladies and gentlemen, the Hollywood storyline.
The rise of Barack Obama was understandable.
I mean, they they get caught up in the real life story line, the emergence of Scott Brown, however, is profound.
It really is.
You know me, uh ladies and gentlemen.
I have forever celebrated the extraordinary accomplishments of ordinary people.
And I think it's one of the great things about this country.
Ordinary people do and can accomplish extraordinary things.
But rarely have I ever seen any ordinary person bring such extraordinary achievement in such a short time.
In political time, it's a nanosecond.
Scott Brown, Senator elect Scott Brown has not even been sworn in yet, but he already changed Washington as liberals thought they knew it.
A few short weeks ago, folks, 99.9% of the country never knew that there was a Scott Brown.
Just a few weeks ago.
And today, the unstoppable Obamacare is stopped.
The arrogant, smug, veto-proof liberal senators are bouncing off the walls.
Sherrod Brown is blaming Max Baucus, Barbara Boxers in a sweat.
The seemingly all-powerful Speaker Pelosi has thrown in her mallet.
The Republicans in name only are rethinking their core beliefs, and state controlled media waiting for its next marching orders and wondering if it should follow them.
In addition, state controlled media already trying to help Obama out of this crisis, John Harris at the politico, the Clinton years hold clues for Obama.
The problem, Mr. Harris is, and Mr. Harris writes this, that the Obama administration is not interested in any help from the Clinton administration.
So I, as I cautioned you uh yesterday, ladies and gentlemen, the left has been so blindsided by this that they have not yet revved up their attack machine, but they will.
You know, they're they're still in the process of trying to make you think they have changed, that they've seen the light, that these results have made an impression.
Uh, but they're only changing their skin.
They're not changing who they are, they never will because they can't.
And you just wait before long.
They will paint Scott Brown as a combination of George W. Bush, Sarah Palin, me, Attila the Hun, and the Tooth Fairy.
Well, after all, all of these things are going to make him out to be whatever, but it isn't going to work because folks, the toothpaste is out of the tube.
The genie is out of the bottle.
The bubble has been burst.
One ordinary man, one extraordinary achievement.
Look at how it has discombobulated an entire political machine.
One election.
One guy.
And now Obama is taking further aim at the economy.
Mr. Depression.
That is what I am going to do.
He is now attacking the banks all over again.
And he's doing it because the polling data he has suggests that the public is still mad at Wall Street, still mad at banks, still mad at all these bonuses, so it's pure class envy.
It's an attempt to revive his poll numbers, and in the process, he is taking yet another swing at capitalism and is totally taking this country toward depression.
He's not cracking down on the banks, folks.
He's raping them.
In Obama's world, if he were to able achieve whatever he wants, there would be no insurance companies.
There would be no oil companies, no people or small businesses earning over $250,000 a year.
There would be no banks.
The government would be running all of this.
This paradise that Obama envisions sounds very Mao Tse tongue to me.
Meanwhile, while everybody is scrimping and saving and unemployed with no hope on the horizon for any kind of improvement.
Barack Obama lives like a king.
His buddies in the unions are rewarded with tax dollars and tax breaks that they have not earned.
The government gets bigger and bigger and bigger.
And I'll tell you, Barack Obama uses the word regulation to give the impression of reform or consumerism.
But when you hear him use the word regulation, understand that what he means is nationalization in whole or in part.
I am not kidding about this.
The word reform means nationalization.
The word regulation, common sense regulations, meaningful reform.
All it means is more government control over as many entities in the private sector as possible.
We have a man child not qualified to be president of the United States sitting in the Oval Office.
He always wants to do the biggest this, the biggest that, since the depression, or since the founding.
He's a man, I think, who is insecure with himself.
I think he craves adulation.
These stories were heard yesterday that the White House did believe and still does believe that he is this transformational figure, that he was messianic like.
Well, if they think it, they're treating him that way.
And they may be treating him that way because he thinks it too.
Even in this period of time this week where it's all collapsed.
Everything's collapsed.
He lives in an alternative universe as though he's not aware of it.
Still thinks of himself as the guy causing people to faint in the campaign.
Nobody's fainting now.
They're all crying.
They're all panicking.
He confuses big with right.
He confuses massive with smart.
And I think he's gone through his entire bag of tricks.
I don't think there's any more left in the repertoire.
The repertoire is what's on the teleprompter, and that's lost its magic.
He's lashing out.
Look at what he's doing.
He's in Ohio today stumping for jobs, another speech.
Another speech on jobs.
This is a man who believes the world is governed by the aggressive use of speeches.
Another speech on jobs.
People don't want talk.
They want work.
He's lashing out.
He's throwing wild punches in every direction now.
Wall Street's not happy.
77% of investors oppose what he is doing with the banks.
Twenty-seven percent of investors support what he's doing.
Who are they?
Who are those twenty-seven percent investors?
Support what he's doing.
The investor class is not happy because most of America used to and wants to own stock.
So again, he's lashing out at the American people.
And I I really think that there seems to be some instability taking over now.
His comments, his actions.
They're not rational.
They're not they're not immersed in reality.
I don't think, I don't think Obama could win election to the Chicago City Council if he ran for that office today.
I know he wouldn't be re-elected president.
Did you hear the union guy yesterday who I forget the union guy said if Obama decides to run in 2012?
I read the quote myself.
I just don't remember who it was.
I don't think it was Andy Stern.
It might have been Andy Stern, service employees International Union, but whoever it was, uh if he chooses to run in 2012, he will blah, blah, blah, blah.
But let me ask you folks, and let me ask all of you on the left, uh, what exactly has Barack Obama done for the middle class?
I mean, what's he done for them?
We all know what he's done to the middle class.
They don't have jobs.
They're facing massive tax increases, but what has he done for the middle class?
What exactly, exactly has he done for small businesses, other than target them?
What exactly has Obama done to bring ethics and accountability to government?
He has made it worse.
What exactly has Obama done to improve the economic environment in this country?
Nothing.
What exactly has Obama done to improve reading and writing schools or skills in our schools?
What's he done to improve education?
What exactly has Obama done to improve conditions in the inner cities?
Nothing.
What exactly has Obama done to clean the air and the water?
Nothing.
What has he done to lower the sea levels?
Nothing, although nobody could do that, but he claimed he could.
I could go on and on and on.
I could ask, what has he done for X?
And the answer is nothing, except for unions.
Except for the public employee unions.
They appear to be his masters or his partners.
In lieu of doing something substantive and something positive, he spends and spends and attacks and attacks and lashes out.
Literally nothing has improved under this president.
Not one thing.
Nothing.
Obama the petulant, criticizing everybody else, still like a child blaming George W. Bush, living in a fantasy world where he tells George Stephanopoulos that the same anger that elected him elected Scott Brown.
Anger at George W. Bush makes a lot of sense.
The rage at Bush, a Republican elects a Republican, Scott Brown, in Massachusetts for the Ted Kennedy seat.
This is scary.
It is so devoid and so absent reality.
Criticizing everybody else, demeaning people who have actually created jobs and wealth.
They are being focused on.
He, ladies and gentlemen, targets and demeans people who create jobs and wealth.
He arrogantly makes demands, bullies people, bullies businesses.
I don't think Obama has the concept of the role of a president or the limits of his intelligence or abilities.
But the good news is that most of the American people now do.
Most of the American people do understand who he is and what more importantly he is not.
It is time, ladies and gentlemen, to regulate Obama.
He is trying to regulate us and everything else.
It's time to regulate him.
And that's what we intend to do in November.
And welcome back.
It's Rush Limbaugh, open line Friday at 800-282-2882.
Remember, folks, next week, the Miss America pageant.
The work judging that begins Sunday.
You would not believe it's a 12-hour day every day.
I mean, it is stunning.
That doesn't count going to dinner every night.
I will, because of this, uh only be working Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday of next.
H.R., who's who's who's here on Monday and Tuesday?
Mark Stein both days on Monday and Tuesday.
Oh, that's good.
Uh then we'll be uh live from Las Vegas Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.
By the way, what one more thing about about President Obama, all he really knows how to do, folks, is agitate, which is what he's doing.
That's all he knows how to do.
He knows how to agitate, he knows how to demand solutions.
He does not know how to reach them.
He has the not the slightest idea how to reach solutions.
That's something Saul Olinski never taught him.
And even according to Olinski, that is the difference between an organizer and a leader.
An agitator, an organizer, demands solutions.
And agitates.
He hasn't the slightest idea how to reach one.
Ladies and gentlemen, oh darn, we don't have time.
Oh, we've got a we've got a brand new Barney Frank song.
And I was going to try to squeeze it in here, but we don't.
It's Barney Frank parodying the BGs.
The lights all went out in Massachusetts.
We'll have it soon coming up on the EIB network.
Also, uh, ladies and gentlemen, uh, I want you to do me a favor.
If anybody knows Abraham Foxman of the uh Anti-Defamation League, please call him and have him turn on the radio wherever he is to this program in about three or four minutes.
Uh and if uh anybody else who has been bought hook, line and sinker by the latest transparent attempt to brand me of all people an anti-Semite.
If if uh anybody else in this audience is interested in the truth about this, uh, I'll have it uh as we lead off the the next segment on this program.
And I want to make sure Mr. Foxman hears this, because if anybody owes anybody an apology, it is Mr. Foxman who owes me one.
Now, this headline from CNN, Obama to focus hard on economy after Democrat loss.
This, folks, a little bit of an expansion on what I said yesterday regarding how we have to be alert to the attempts of the left to change their skin, their appearance to fit the current environment.
This this is one way they do it.
They start talking about things that we are interested in that we think are important, like jobs.
So he's in Ohio today, where the unemployment rates, what, 10.8%, 10.6.
So now backed into a corner.
Obama is uh is coming out today and next week to hit the economy and jobs.
And doesn't that sound so good?
Oh, yeah, he's gotten the message now.
Well, it's fake, folks.
It is a lie.
They've done everything but throw the kitchen sink out to keep jobs from happening in the natural normal way.
They are assaulting the private sector on purpose.
They want the public sector to grow.
Now they come in, make it look like they are going to find you jobs after doing this for a year, supposedly they've got the message now.
Uh it is something that we have to constantly be on the alert for and not fall for.
And keep a sharp eye because it's all gonna come true exactly as I say.
Back right after this.
Hi, how are you?
Welcome back, Rush Lynn Boss, serving humanity simply by showing up on this, the most listened to radio talk show in the country.
It's open line Friday.
We'll get to the phones fairly soon, numbers 800-282-2882.
Earlier this week.
I posed a political question in the uh process and in the in the context of uh trying to help a friend and uh my audience understand a concept that people ask me about a lot.
Why are so many Jewish people liberal?
And a friend of mine, a good friend of mine, Norman Padoritz, has written a book, an excellent book to explain it.
Mr. Pedoritz is himself Jewish.
He is the the uh the husband of Midge Dector, the father of John Fedoritz.
And I know all of them very well, and I've socialized with them on a number of occasions.
And in the process of let me just read you Pedoritz is has written a uh a response to uh Abraham Foxman of the uh Anti-Defamation League, who is demanding that I apologize for borderline anti-Semitism.
Now, anybody who listens to this program, even marginally knows that this program is and has consistently been uh one of the most outspoken supporters of the Jewish people and of Israel in in particular.
And Mr. Foxman knows this as well.
What I suspect happened is the usual thing that happened.
Somebody took a few words that I said in the uh uh in a in a pretty long monologue, cut them up, and published them in a way to make it appear I said something that I didn't say.
And rather than check it out, and by now I would think anybody, I in the uh in the mainstream media or in any mainstream American uh uh uh endeavor, after twenty years of this attack, these types of attacks, me being taken out of context and every one of them being shown to be wrong, every one of these attacks being shown to be fallacious.
I would think that by now some people would realize what's going on, but I don't think that they do.
I think they want these attacks to be real.
I think they want the out-of-context quotes to be real.
It's just like during this uh this NFL controversy when there were purely fabricated quotes of me that were that were uh plastered all over the American media, newspapers, websites, television, the Reverend Jackson repeated them, that I supposedly supported slavery because it kept the streets safe at night, and that I wanted a congressional medal given to the assassin of Dr. Martin Luther King.
And people knew that I didn't say it, but they wanted to believe I'd said it because they would love to get rid of me.
Folks, the left has never been angrier at me than they are this week.
Because of what I myself said this week, only yesterday.
Back when Obama was inaugurated, even prior to him being inaugurated, everybody was inside the celebrity bubble.
Oh, we must not criticize our brand new president.
He's so young and he's so historical.
This means so much to America.
We must hope and we must pray that he succeeds.
Well, I didn't join any of that.
I didn't want him to succeed.
I don't want socialism in this country.
I do not want the government Running car companies, the banks, the student loan program.
I don't want the government telling banks how they can and can't operate.
I don't want Obama being everybody's boss.
I don't want the government being able to hire and fire people and set salaries.
That's all happened.
I don't want that kind of thing.
I wanted him to fail.
I was the only person to say so.
And that changed the political dynamic.
It got rid of it, burst the bubble of the celebrity bubble that was everybody was in, treating Obama not as a politician, but something much larger, transformational, postpartisan, post-racial, and now we know post-achievement.
He hadn't achieved anything.
And so this year has transpired, and everything he's fought for, the big things have crashed and burned, and it all came to a culmination this week.
And so the the uh the sheer hatred of me crystallized and compacted this week.
So I don't, you know, I I totally understand people trying to uh damage me and my credibility so that I'm no longer a factor.
The thing is, when they do this, they only amplify me and add to my supposed importance.
But you don't have to be anything other than a liberal to lie about me and attack me and so forth, and this uh this silly borderline anti-Semitic charge from the anti-defamation league is just silly.
And here is what Mr. Pedoritz himself has written in response.
He titled this, It's not Rush Limbaugh who should apologize.
In my new book, Why Are Jews Liberals, I argue that it no longer makes any sense for so many of my fellow Jews to go on aligning themselves with the forces of the left.
I also try to show that our interests and our ideals, both as Americans and as Jews, have come in recent decades to be better served by the forces of the right.
In the course of describing and agreeing with the book the other day, Rush Limbaugh cited a few of the numerous reasons for the widespread puzzlement over the persistence of liberalism within the American Jewish community.
And while discussing those reasons, he pointed out and pointed to the undeniable fact that for a lot of people, prejudiced people, as he called them twice.
He was not referring to himself.
He was referring to bigots, prejudiced people.
I was referring to Jew haters, and Mr. Foxman, this is what's been omitted from what you read that I said.
I was I was uh I was alluding to what you know exists.
You know that there are Jew haters out there, and I know there are Jew haters out there, and many of them are in the Obama administration or in his circle of friends.
And Mr. Foxman, if you really want to go after anti-Semitism, you should first start looking at it on the left and within the Obama administration and within his circle of friends, because that's where you're gonna find it.
You're not gonna find anti-Semitism on this radio show.
You're gonna find nothing but love and respect and admiration for the Jewish people and an unwavering support for Israel that has not ever shaken.
I was referring to the Jew haters, the bigots, twice I referred to prejudiced people.
The word, and let me get the paragraph over here again.
While discussing those reasons, Limbaugh the undeniable fact that for a lot of people, prejudiced people, as he called them twice.
The words banker and wall street are code words for Jewish.
Was it possible, he wondered, that Obama's attacks on bankers and Wall Street were triggering a certain amount of buyer's remorse within the American Jewish community, which gave him 78% of the vote.
And finally, taking off from my observation that many Jewish liberals like to call themselves independents.
This is Mr. Pedoritz speaking.
Limbaughed whether a fair number of the self-described independents who deserted Obama and voted for Scott Brown in Massachusetts might actually have been Jewish liberals.
If so, Limbaugh concluded, Brown's victory could be even more indicative of an even bigger change in the political temper of the country than has so far been recognized.
And for this, Rush Limbaugh has been subjected to a vile attack by Abraham Foxman, the national director of the Anti-Defamation League.
Of course, Mr. Foxman has a long history of seeing an Anti-Semite under every conservative bed while blinding himself to the blatant fact that anti-Semitism has largely been banished from the right in the past 40 years, that it has found a hospitable new home on the left, especially where Israel is concerned.
The left is where the anti-Israel forces exist, including in this administration, Mr. Foxman.
This makes Foxman a perfect embodiment of the phenomenon I analyze in my book, Why Are Jews Liberals.
Now Foxman has the chutzpah to denounce Rush Limbaugh as an anti-Semite and to demand an apology from him to boot.
If an apology is owed here, it is the national director of the anti-defamation league who should apologize for the defamatory accusation of anti-Semitism that he himself has hurled against so loyal a friend of Israel as Rush Limbaugh.
Michael Ledeen.
By the way, this uh we've we've put uh Mr. Pedoritz's statement on my website, it's also at the commentary blog.
Uh Michael Ledeen weighed in on this with a post at the National Review Online Corner blog.
Norman Pedoritz quite properly takes anti-defamation league czar Abe Foxman to task for insinuating that Russia is somehow a Jew hater for wondering if Jewish voters are having buyer's remorse regarding Obama.
They certainly should, both because of Obama's striking nastiness to Israel and of his attacks on greedy bankers, which Rush mentioned, free broadcasting, and of course the crusade against American medicine, all enterprises in which Jews have long flourished and all enterprises Obama is attacking.
Rush should be a hero to Abraham Foxman and American Jews, but they're so blindly partisan that they can no longer distinguish between their friends and their enemies.
Foxman has relentlessly attacked American evangelicals, arguably the most pro-Jewish and pro-Israel people in America, but conveniently disappears when the government goes after real Jews for presumed dual loyalty, which one might say is the core principle of the anti-defamation league.
Foxman wants Rush to apologize.
Nuts.
I want Foxman retired and replaced by somebody who fights for Jews and our friends.
That's Michael Levine.
You know, I I have to uh tell you folks, one of my closest friends is Mark Levin.
Everybody knows this.
Mark Levin is Jewish.
Mark Levin is disgusted with Abraham Foxman.
What I've come to learn through this episode is how many Jewish people are disgusted with Abraham Foxman and have been for many years.
And I guess, you know, basically the if if I I really don't want to do this because Mr. Padoritz's book is great, Why Are Jews Liberal.
And if you've ever wondered that, you need to read his book.
If you and I've I know a lot of you do because it's been a question, uh, particularly that I've received a lot since the Obama administration.
It was it was obvious from the early days of this administration that Israel was in a crosshairs of this administration.
And people did it, and and the Hollywood left supports Obama.
And Jewish people on the left support Obama in this, and people say, Well, I don't understand.
I I thought Israel was uh was a key thing to all Jewish people.
And I said, I read Mr. Pedoritz's book, Why Are Jews Liberal.
And basically, it's it's more complicated than this, but I synthesize it down to one thing.
Liberals are liberals first.
They're partisans first, whatever else they are.
They're feminists, they're still liberals first.
If they're animal rights nuts, they're liberals first.
If they are the hoaxers of climate change and global warming, they are liberals or socialists first.
And the issues that they attach themselves to are simply their springboards.
They're jumping off points for advancing liberalism and statism.
And that's what the Democrat Party has become.
Uh uh a coalition of all these disparate groups that uh the civil rights coalitions and the uh uh the the animal rights feminism, all this stuff, the Hollywood left, and they all have one mission, and that is they hate conservatives and Republicans, and they love government.
Uh, and they have big problems with capitalism.
So they're all united in trying to destroy capitalism or limit it or blame it and make America more like a Western socialist uh European democracy.
Anyway, uh thanks to Mr. Padoritz for his his reply, also to uh uh Michael Ledeen.
But Mr. Foxman, uh not only am I not going to apologize, I'm gonna say you should be embarrassed.
And next time, call me if you think I've said something anti-Semitic, or call somebody that knows me and find out what I actually said, rather than trusting your friends in the left to accurately report what I said.
I was in the midst of promoting, because I think it was worthwhile, the work of a celebrated and brilliant American Jew, Norman Padoritz.
And you refer to me as borderline anti-Semitic.
It doesn't compute, Mr. Boxman.
We'll be back.
Stay with us.
And now, ladies and gentlemen, back to doing that which I was born to do.
Serve humanity and perform as a real radio announcer.
800-282-2882, your phone call's coming up.
But first, the left is outraged over this Supreme Court decision that stood up for the First Amendment and free speech.
They are beside themselves, both in print and in politics and in the uh the broadcast media.
Last night on MSNBC, Barney Frank was asked for his reaction to the Supreme Court ruling saying that corporations can advertise as often and as and wherever they want in political campaigns.
Fortunately, there is an approach we can take.
What we can do that's perfectly possible and constitutionally, I believe, unassailable, is to impose restrictions as a matter of corporate law on what corporations can do.
We can limit what corporations do, and uh we limit it not as a matter of campaign finance regulation per se, but as a matter of corporate law.
We will be cooperating with the Obama administration in drafting the toughest possible constitutional legislation to prevent the drowning of American democracy in corporate dollars.
There's no other way to say it.
That's right, because we want the American democracy to continue to choke on union dollars.
We don't want competition.
We don't want fairness.
Your Democrat Party against the First Amendment.
Barney Frank shell-shocked over what happened in Massachusetts.
Zitz.
Peace.
Barney Frank from a District 1 by Scott Brown in Massachusetts and the um the day they lost Massachusetts.
By the way, speaking of Massachusetts, folks, do you remember?
Do you remember how the media and the Democrats were linking me to Scott Brown?
They put me in Scott Brown ads.
I had said not a word about this campaign.
They linked me with Scott Brown before the vote.
He wins in a near landslide.
And now they ignore that I had something to do with it by their own admission, and are trying to call him a moderate, and they're peppering him with questions.
What are you going to do to work with Democrats?
Paul Ryan, Republican congressman from Wisconsin, ranking member of the House budget committee, told National Review online that House Democrats are planning to use the budget reconciliation process in order to pass Obamacare.
This was from yesterday.
Ryan says they're meeting with each other over the weekend to pursue it.
Says he's spoken with many Democrats, and the message is they're not ready to give up.
They've waited their entire adult lives for this moment, and they aren't ready to let a thousand hundred thousand Massachusetts voters derail them.
