Time Text
The views expressed by the host on this show, documented to be almost always right 99.5% of the time.
And you know who this is, the sound of my voice and my name, household in all four corners of the world.
Rushlin Baugh in Las Vegas, judging the 2010 Miss America pageant this afternoon, tonight, tomorrow night.
Have a day off on Friday, and then most of Saturday in the morning, and the big final telecast on the TLC network, 8 o'clock Eastern Time, Saturday night.
Telephone number 800-282-2882.

Okay, here's what I gathered.
I've been watching a little TV this morning, and I've been reading and doing show prep today.
And this apparently is what we're going to hear from the state of Obama's speech tonight.
We're going to hear about the non-defense, non-discretionary budget freeze, which is a total trick.
It's a total sham.
It's going to lock in massive spending increases, wealth-robbing spending increases that Obama put in last year.
That's what's actually, I mean, how can you say a spending freeze that is going to save, quote unquote, $250 billion over 10 years is anything.
As I said, that's the cost of one little dose of mustard on a hot dog at a ballpark.
It's nothing.
It's a rounding error.
Number two, don't be surprised if you hear him talk about a salary freeze for the White House and political appointees.
But we don't know what their salaries are, especially these czars.
Nobody knows what they're making.
It could be tremendous amounts of money.
Tax cuts and tax credits aimed at the middle and working classes.
Now, what's the difference in a middle-class person, a working-class person?
You know what it is?
When you hear liberals talk about working class, that's code lingo for unions.
Middle class is non-union middle-class workers, working families, working people.
That's unions.
I got to tell you, you know, this, this, you know, my failure theme, folks, Obama has not only failed spectacularly, so has liberalism.
Liberalism, once again, demonstrates what a complete failure it is.
And this is, I mean, right out in the open, unfettered, such a teachable moment here.
Also, there will be, oh, on this tax cuts and tax credits, this is not, the tax cuts won't be much.
The tax credit will be what he is focusing on.
And this is an old idea that I don't think made the stimulus package, the slush fund.
And here's basically what it is.
They're going to tell small business people that they will give them, I don't know what it'll be, $3,000 tax credit for every new job they create, which Obama will thus be admitting that job creation occurs in the private sector.
But what kind of deal is that?
Here we are in an economic downturn that shows no signs of recovery on Main Street in the private sector economy.
So you go out and hire somebody, what, $25,000 or $30,000 a year plus benefits, and you save $3,000 to do it, get a $3,000 tax.
That's not a good deal.
That's not an incentive to hire anybody.
The incentive to hire people is your business growing.
The incentive to hire people is legitimate tax cuts and removing government obstacles from the whole concept of growth.
And until that happens, this is still the government making plans and trying to tweak what happens in the private sector with bureaucratic ideas that come from these smarter than everybody else elites.
This is tax cuts will be minimal in this tax credit business.
And when it doesn't work, Obama's then going to say, well, I gave the middle class, I gave the small business people every incentive, but they didn't take me up on it.
This will be a way to switch the blame from his policies to these greedy small business owners who refuse to take his great tax credit.
And of course, this is obligatory.
With every Liberal Democrat education funding, you will be led to believe that we are a third world country when it comes to education.
The only way we are similar to a third world country in education is what we teach and how we indoctrinate students rather than teach them.
But you're going to hear that we are underfunded, that the schools are running out of money, and they are.
But it's not because the taxpayers aren't giving them enough money.
It's because they're top heavy with administration and they show no restraint in their spending whatsoever.
But we're going to take the blame for it.
You're going to hear just what a unfeeling, unconcerned country we are about education, that Bush didn't do enough.
No child left behind, of course, wasn't enough.
Probably some people think he's going to ask for a repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell, gays in the military policy.
And some people think that he's going to make a call for amnesty, illegal immigration amnesty, because the Democrats now know they need more voters.
And I wouldn't be surprised if that's something that is in the speech.
And this I know will be in there, a call for a legislative attack on the financial industry because they've got polling data which says that you hate Wall Street, that you hate the banks, that you hate financial institutions, and you want to get even with them.
And you want the government to show them.
This is what their polling tells them.
And I'm sure we'll hear from something about Haiti and the announcement of a new relief program.
Or Michelle Mybel might have a Haiti survivor sitting next to her up there.
And we'll hear, you know, Mrs. Clinton said the other day, she's getting really frosted at all the criticism from other countries about how ineffective our aid program is.
How does it feel, Hillary?
How does it feel?
You guys did nothing but tar George Bush and you still are over Hurricane Katrina.
You know what else was predictable?
The Super Bowl storyline.
The people of New Orleans deserve this.
We're going to get two weeks of Katrina-related stories since Brett Favre, Brett Favre, Brett Favre is not in the game.
That's what we're going to get.
And we are.
But it's going to really ratchet up.
Teams show up on Sunday and Monday.
And tomorrow is when the teams go back to work.
They've had the days off since Sunday.
Now, I have some helpful suggestions.
If Obama really, if he's serious, oh, by the way, ladies and gentlemen, I'm reading some of the email.
And you are suggesting that I don't sound the same here in Las Vegas, that I sound like I'm in a cavernous building that's very large.
It's true.
We are in a very large and cavernous building, and it doesn't have the best acoustics, but the reason we went for it is because it has that echo without us having to turn on a reverb.
It has the Obama echo for the entire show.
That's how you have to look at this.
So don't sweat it.
It is what it is, and this is the best we could do maintaining our super secret.
Nobody could possibly find us even with hints.
Location.
So if Obama really is serious, here are some suggestions for a post-Massachusetts, post-New Jersey, post-Virginia state of Obama speech.
Defund Acorn.
Prosecute voter intimidation.
Fire all the czars and end the practice of hiring them.
Propose a bill that actually cuts spending 2% every year for the next 10 years and veto every spending bill until the requested bill is passed.
List your proposed cuts to achieve the 2% reduction in spending every year.
Across-the-board tax cuts, individual two levels, 10% up to $100,000 a year, 25% for over that amount.
Corporate tax rate, 15%.
Repeal the alternative minimum tax, the death tax, and capital gains taxes.
Just repeal them.
Privatize General Motors and Chrysler, and that includes getting the unions out of ownership.
End TARP and the slush fund.
Cut off all slush fund and porkulus spending that has not been spent.
Lift all restrictions, preventing interstate health insurance and real tort reform, and endorse Charles Krauthammer's proposal to scrap the current medical malpractice system.
Repeal Executive Order 10-988, which gives federal workers the right to join unions and bargain collectively.
Reserve constitutional rights for Americans.
Treat terrorists as enemy combatants and not common criminals, criminals, and U.S. citizens.
And return the right to interrogate those that attack us to the FBI and the CIA.
And last but not least, keep Guantanamo Bay open for business because we're going to need it.
Very simple.
Those are my suggestions.
You want to fix what Obama's done wrong.
And I had a pipe dream it ain't going to happen.
Make no mistake.
That's just my way of illustrating in another clever way what's wrong with what Obama's done.
A couple sound bites here before we take a break and get to your phone calls.
Well, well, well, Evan Thomas.
Evan Thomas pretending to be surprised that Obama's a liar.
Remember, he's godlike?
He's godlike.
In fact, let's play number 18 first.
This is November 5th of 2008 on the Charlie Rose show.
And this is Evan Thomas having an exchange with the managing editor, John Meekum, about the election.
President-elect Obama.
He is very elusive, Obama, which is fascinating for a man who's written two memoirs.
In Grant Park, he walks out with the family, and then they go away.
Biden's back, you know, locked in the bar or something.
You know, they'll let him out.
And have you ever seen a victory speech where there was no one else on stage?
No adoring wife, no cute kid?
He is the message of the.
There is a slightly creepy cult of personality about all this.
I mean, he's such an absolutely.
Slightly creepy cult of personality.
Yes.
What's slightly creepy about it?
It just makes me a little uneasy that he's so singular.
He's clearly managing his own spectacle.
He's a deeply manipulative guy.
That's Evan Thomas, and it also called him godlike at one point.
So Sunday morning, local Washington TV program inside Washington, Evan Thomas had this to say a little over a year later about Obama.
The chance Obama missed, he really had a chance.
A lot of people saying, okay, you're going to change government.
He was not fundamentally honest.
What caught him up, I think, was his dishonesty.
He didn't level with the American people.
Even those who are not politically engaged smelled dishonesty and a rat, and their reaction to it is to go to tea parties and, you know, vote for Brown.
Oh, he wasn't fundamentally honest.
How come all of us conservatives could see that from day one, even in the middle of the campaign?
And these people do not see it until it's a year too late.
Sit tight.
Your phone calls are next on the Rush Limbaugh program and the EIB network.
Well, Apple Computer Steve Jobs has done it.
They have released the iPad tablet.
And I read a story today that state-controlled media is looking at the new Apple tablet.
Think of a larger iPhone, larger iPod with connectability, Wi-Fi, and all that in it, and the same kind of touchscreen operation.
I haven't seen a picture of it yet.
I just saw a crawl.
And they think this could really revive because it gets a Kindle all-in-one.
You could read life site newspaper stuff on it.
I don't know the size of the screen.
I think 10 or 11 inches is what somebody said that may be a little large.
But regardless, I think this day is going to be more remembered for the iPad from Apple than the State of the Obama show.
At any rate, I promise to go to the phones.
I do want to comment, though, and I'll do it on this Tim Thibaut controversy involving his ad, the ad with his mother, Focus on the Family Bought.
It proves a point.
It proves a point that I have been making since I started this program in 1988.
But first, Mike in Fairfield, California.
Great to have you on the program.
You're up first today.
Maha, Rusty Limbaugh.
Greetings from California.
Thank you, sir.
People's Republic of Rush.
Mr. Obama, after the detonation in Massachusetts, seems to be given a little headfake towards this triangulation after hearing his comments about how he didn't make any backroom deal.
It appears to me he's trying to put a little space between him and Aunt Nancy and Uncle Harry.
There are a lot of people who see that exact thing.
Triangulate, put himself, like Clinton did, put himself above conservatives and Republicans and put himself above Democrats.
And there are a lot of people on the left who are telling him, don't do that.
Most of the people on the left, most of the people in his base, want him to come out ripping a new one.
They want him to be angry as hell.
They want him to continue to bash the Republicans.
They want him to talk about jobs and blame Wall Street for everything that's going wrong.
They want Obama fit to be tied just as they are.
And they are fit to be tied over his spending freeze.
They actually think that that matters, that it's some big deal, which it, of course, is not.
But people live on growing government and bigger government government spending.
And the left is frosted.
So it's just one year.
Just one year.
The failure of Obama and the failure of liberalism on display.
And all it took was one election.
One election.
The Ted Kennedy seat, held by Ted Kennedy for 47 years, now gone, held by a Republican.
Waterbury, Connecticut, Mark, great to have you on the program.
Nice to have you with us.
Hi, Rush.
Appreciate you taking my call.
Thank you.
This so-called stimulus package is going up by $75 billion from $787 billion to $862 billion.
Yes.
And this is to pay for unemployment benefits.
Now, as sorry as I am for the unemployed, I have a question.
And that question is: how is that stimulus?
I mean, to me, a true stimulus would be allowing businesses to keep their money so they can hire more people.
Exactly right.
Now, Caterpillar laid off 20,000 people, and this is the very business that Obama was using as an example to how the stimulus was working.
Exactly right.
I hate to say this about our own president, but I now think he's a fool.
I'm sorry.
Dangerous fool.
Dangerous fool.
What he has stimulated is government.
$787 billion stimulus was actually closer to $1 trillion.
Don't forget, my friends, that he had to do a bunch of stuff like they did in the Senate to get people to vote for this, to get his own Democrats to vote for this.
So the $787 was actually closer to a trillion when you have the pork in there.
But Mark here is right.
$75 billion more expensive than estimated.
It's now $862 billion because it didn't work.
If it had, revenues would have picked up.
But what has happened, it's cost more because of the extension of unemployment benefits.
I mean, this is laughable.
If it weren't so serious, it has stimulated nothing but government, which is what Obama wanted to do.
And he's going to keep this whole speech tonight, state of Obama, is designed to convince you he's changing sees the light while he continues these same policies.
Make no mistake.
This is what he wants to happen.
If they were willing, if they were willing to totally ram a health care bill down everybody's throat, but nobody wanted, they will not stop with any of the rest of their agenda.
They'll just proceed to the parts of it they think they can get done.
I wouldn't be fooled by any new attitude, policy shifts, focus change, any of that.
Joe in Ventura, California, you're next.
Thanks for calling.
Hey, Rush, two quick comments.
First, you had mentioned earlier about him firing all of his czars.
I would assume Premier Obama tonight will announce that he's going to have a Medicare fraud czar.
I'd like to see him implement that.
You serious?
Medicare fraud.
You know, I mean, in his healthcare plan, they were going to attack all the fraud in Medicare.
That's right.
That's where they're going to get the savings to make it revenue neutral.
Yeah, and the other thing, real quick, is Limbaugh's Folly, where we buy Mexico on the condition that after Obama's first term, him and Reed and Pelosi and Schumer and Frank, it's mandated that they go down there and run it.
All the liberals have to run Mexico.
Well, Mexican government might have something to say about that.
But the Medicare fraud, speaking of which, I've heard some people, the Democrat side, say, we don't want to scale back our health care proposal and go for it in smaller increments, which I have no doubt they'll try at some point.
I hope they do.
I hope they bring it back, and I hope that it continues to roil people all the way through the summer.
And they're just obstinate enough to try it.
But let's not forget, I've been talking to a lot of people out here, and it's interesting to hear the opinions of people who are casually involved.
Of course, when it comes to health care, I think most people are much more than casually involved.
But it seems that one of the reasons the Democrats are in big trouble is that what people really want is for the people that don't have insurance to have it.
And then they want costs to come down.
And they think that that's not that complicated.
They don't understand what's so complicated about insuring the people that don't have insurance, except when it boils down to the fact that everybody who does have insurance is going to have to pay for it.
And they don't like that, of course.
But they think it's just not humane in America that people would be so uninsured and they want to get costs over control.
And the Democrats addressed none of that.
That was not going to happen in either of those two events.
Quick timeout back after this.
Don't go anywhere.
And we're back, El Rushbow and the EIB network, the iPad, a 10-inch diagonal screen.
And I just looked at a little bit of it here during the break, and it looks just like a large iPhone or iPod.
My guess is it's going to be tough to get one out of the box.
I think this thing is going to be so popular.
It'll be more popular than the iPhone.
I don't know what the price point is, and that might be the one thing that makes it less popular than the iPhone, but it's still going to have the same kind of demand.
Now, advice.
Advice for Obama and the state of Obama speech tonight.
Here's former Labor Secretary, Robert B. Rice.
He was on MSNBC this afternoon, and he's advising the exact opposite of what you just heard me suggest.
The infobabe Chris Jansen spoke with Secretary Reich.
He said, you suggest the president should propose a WPA-style jobs program.
But the American people suggested they don't want maybe the government taking control of everything.
There are concerns about the growing deficit.
How much can the government really do?
How far can they step into the fray?
Government, in terms of the economy, does and can do quite a lot, Chris.
I mean, the Federal Reserve Board, in its policies over the last year, has done more than the Fed has done in living memory.
Look, we are in a society.
I mean, we can't turn against government.
That's like turning against society.
People may not like bureaucrats, as they call them.
People may not like complicated red tape.
But in the last resort, we're all in this together.
And so the president has got to make a very strong argument for why in a time of stress, we do need to come together.
And government is what we have and what we need.
I so hope he listens to former Labor Secretary Reich.
I really more government.
That's what we need.
More government.
And let's just continue on this theme.
This is a montage of media people.
Matthews, Bob Shrum, F. Chuck Todd, Michael Crowley from the New Republic, and again, Labor Secretary Robert B. Reich.
Does President Obama go left like Bill Clinton did after losing the House back in 94?
If we didn't elect him to be a third term of Bill Clinton, they're not going to do what they believe Bill Clinton did, which is do a complete 180.
We're seeing the first term of the Clinton presidency being replayed.
I worked with Bill Clinton, and Barack Obama is no Bill Clinton.
Ooh, there's conflicting advice there.
Some say we are going to get Clinton, and some say that we aren't.
And here's the rage in Cajun, James Carville.
You have to put things in context, George.
The president has to explain what he took over and what happened.
The war at Afghanistan has to be explained that there was a failed capture of bin Laden when they had a chance to.
President Reagan, if you go back to 1980 in his original State of the Union dress, blasted Jimmy Carter.
And when he said, before you can ever know what you're going to do in the future, you have to understand the past.
Explain what it is that he inherited and to put into context what his program is.
He can't.
He can't put into context what his program is because people really wouldn't accept it.
And he's been bashing Bush.
Like a spoiled little kid, he's been bashing Bush.
And here is a montage.
Obama is announcing a staff shakeup.
He's putting David Pluffbout in there and a bunch of liberals.
It's a brilliant move.
Oh, this is a brilliant, brilliant move.
Here's a montage of people.
The president is reassembling the vaunted political team that helped him win the White House.
And he's ordered a review of the Democratic Party's entire political operation.
They wanted the best player on the field.
And after a lousy week, this is good news for Democrats.
He's bringing the commander of the ship back for a repeat performance in 2010.
The White House shakes up the political team.
President Obama is calling on the team that helped put him in the White House.
Mr. Obama is now turning to a proven winner.
He's shaking things up.
He's bringing back the team that helped win the White House.
They've now recruited a familiar face to get them back on track.
The Democrats should have seen this coming and they didn't.
That's why I think they're bringing back David Plough.
It will take all of David Plough's skill to mitigate Democratic losses and keep the Democrats in control of the House and the Senate.
David Plough coming back, and they're excited.
They're excited.
But let's go back.
March 28, 2006.
We have a montage of media people reacting to the news that Andy Card was leaving his post at the White House as chief of staff.
Is this a shake-up or is this just rearranging the deck chairs?
Like rearranging the deck chairs, not really a major shake-up.
Simply rearranging the deck chairs.
The President of the United States needed to rearrange the chairs.
You're basically just moving the chairs in different directions.
Is that not uncanny?
I mean, all of them, every one of them.
We have many more than that.
We just, in the interest of time, they get these faxes and they get these phrases.
But with Bush, it was rearranging the chairs on the Titanic with Obama.
It's a brilliant shake-up.
It's a brilliant day.
It's right on time.
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
By the way, can anybody tell me if those great thinkers at Obama's Jobs Forum in December have reported back?
Remember that jobs summit at the White House with the work groups?
And he had a suck-up session there with Thomas Friedman, the foreign policy correspondent for the New York Times.
I don't know, what does this guy know about job creation?
Anyway, have they reported back yet?
They ever report back?
Are they still in their work groups coming up with plans?
Because we haven't heard any new ideas from Obama about creating jobs.
And we sure aren't going to hear any new ideas tonight.
We're not going to hear anything that would genuinely create jobs.
This isn't going to happen.
Now, this Tim Tebow thing.
Tim Thibault, you all know the story.
Tim Tebow's mother was advised to abort him late in her pregnancy because there was a threat to her life.
And she decided to have the baby.
And the baby is Tim Thibault.
And he's a Heisman Trophy candidate this year, a big prospect for the National Football League, and a general all-around good kid.
So focus on the families pawning up $2 or $3 million, whatever the cost is, for a 30-second spot in the Super Bowl to tell their story.
I haven't seen the ad.
I don't know the text, but that's the basic theme.
And all of a sudden, the NAGs, and I knew heads were going to explode.
I knew this heads were going to explode over this.
And the NAGs have come along and proved my point that I've been making since 1988.
And I can remember when I first started making this point, everybody got mad at me like they always do.
How can you say that?
How can you think that?
That's just so extreme.
And what I've been saying all along is that if they have a chance to stop a birth and cause an abortion, they'll do it.
If you have an abortion clinic very close by to a counseling place where women can go to be talked out of an abortion, the Planned Parenthood people will actually try to intercept those women and get them in to have the abortion.
The NAGs, the National Association of Gals, have actually opposed this ad.
They want CBS to not run this ad.
They'd already approved it.
And Their objection is that we really think this is divisive.
On a day where we all come together for the Super Bowl, why do something that will divide us?
What are they afraid of?
What are they afraid of?
What in the world could possibly be wrong with them telling this story?
Why do they feel threatened?
If pro-choice is pro-choice, well, the mother had a choice.
She chose birth.
They should be happy.
But see, this proves that pro-choice is not pro-choice.
It's pro-abort.
And the stories that I saw in this actually referred to these people as pro-abortionists.
And that's exactly what they are.
Now, I know this is an uncomfortable subject for people because it's so deeply personal.
And it delves into people thinking that people won't tell them what to do with their bodies.
It really isn't that.
It's just people trying to make the case for the sanctity of life and pointing out that pro-choice is not pro-choice.
I mean, when I saw that the nags were pressuring CBS to not run this ad after committing to it and after approving it, on the basis, why?
What are they so afraid of?
Ask yourself, what is so threatening to the pro-choice crowd to have this story told during the Super Bowl?
And it answers itself.
A successful baby taken to term where an abortion was suggested threatens the political nature of their cause.
And make no mistake, abortion is not about a woman's right to choose.
Abortion is not about freedom.
Abortion is not about any of these things that they use to describe it.
It's liberalism, folks, and liberals lie.
Abortion is about advancing liberalism.
Abortion is simply taking an event in someone's life and being the people that make the decision for a woman.
It is sick.
And the people that are on, they're just liberals.
And I know it sounds easy to say.
Russia, is everybody that's a liberal bet?
Yes, folks.
I mean, it's not a gray area here.
This is black and white.
And the sooner a lot of people understand this, believe me, the better off this country and our future will be.
The United Nations climate expert, the climate change expert, is admitting that there could be more errors in his reports.
Mistakes were made, but can't we all just move on?
These people, everything that the left is involved in is being exposed here for what it is.
100% lies and a hoax.
The Indian head of the UN Climate Change Panel defended his position yesterday, even as further errors were identified in the panel's assessment of Himalayan glaciers.
This is Rajendra Pochari.
Now, he may be Indian, but he went to school and taught, I believe, in North Carolina.
And he's not a climate scientist.
He's an economist.
He's an economist.
All of this is about money.
Dr. Rajendra Pachari dismissed calls for him to quit over the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's retraction of a prediction that Himalayan glaciers could disappear by 2035.
He admitted there may have been other errors in the same section of the report.
He said he was considering whether to take action against those responsible.
He says, I know a lot of climate skeptics are after my blood, but I'm in no mood to oblige them.
It was a collective failure by a number of people.
I need to consider what action to take, but that'll take several weeks.
It's best to think with a cool head rather than shoot from the hip.
This sounds like the people in the Obama administration on the Sunday shows after getting hammered with bad news last week and how they respond to any crisis when they screw up like Fort Hood and the Christmas bomber, the fruit of Kaboom bomber, and soon Haiti.
Now, don't forget the IPCC's 2007 report won the Nobel Peace Prize along with Al Gore.
But it emerged last week that the forecast was based not on a consensus among the climate change experts, but on a media interview with a single Indian glaciologist in 1999.
A single interview with a single Indian glaciologist.
This is almost like these emails that we have now learned used tree rings from one tree in a Siberian forest to show that the hockey stick warming curve was accurate.
These people are frauds from the get-go.
Now the Himalayan glaciers are not going to melt by 2035.
There are five glaring errors in the relevant section.
And this is just more icing on the cake for this program here, this whole movement, which has been around in intense focus since the early 1980s.
I, frankly, couldn't be happier.
Back to the phones, Joe, Columbus, Ohio.
Thank you for waiting, sir.
You are on the EIB network.
Thanks, Rush.
Been with you since day one, and it just keeps getting better.
Thank you, sir.
Hey, with the significant change in the direction that Obama's taking right now, will his demeanor tonight change as much as, say, like Al Gores did during the election when the polls told him that he needed to find his alpha male and he started using his big boy speech during all the big boy voice during all the speeches?
Oh, yeah.
Naomi Wolf started addressing him in wardrobe.
It was, you know, it was such an obvious put-on fake, you know, will Obama's change be that obvious tonight in demeanor as well as?
That'd be interesting to see.
I think that they're probably still stuck on the fact that Obama is magic, and I think they'll go back to writing words for him to read off the teleprompter.
I mean, let me ask you a question.
In asking you, I'm going to ask everybody.
Can somebody name for me what you remember from George Bush's last State of the Union speech?
Can you tell me anything you remember?
Not really as much.
I mean, you know, I think that, you know, the message of...
They're not memorable.
What you remember is a laundry list of giveaways, a laundry list of new programs to stop cancer, to heal the environment.
There'd be a laundry list of new programs, spending freezes, things to address.
They're going to bring the camera up to somebody sitting with somebody and it's touching and they have a little backstory thing.
Yeah, yeah.
But I mean, these are not memorable speeches, except to the sycophants who covered them in the state-controlled media.
So I think, did you see the story, by the way, who goes out to this grade school and has a teleprompter to talk to the press that's there?
A teleprompter.
And he had a meeting.
He had a meeting with his middle-class task force.
20 people.
And he had a teleprompter for that.
20 people.
So whatever he's going to say is what the teleprompter tells him to say.
And whoever is writing what's on the teleprompter.
And my guess is they'll try to get back to the soaring rhetoric of the campaign.
I mean, it's what they did when they sent Obama out to Ohio, Elyria, Ohio, last week.
That was a campaign stop.
And I think that's the magic.
And that's probably what they're going to go back to.
Quickly, Janet in Shiloh, Illinois.
Great to have you on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hello, last man standing tall.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
I wanted to go back to last week's Supreme Court decision because John Roberts Court handed Obama a jobs creation, something that Congress has not been able to do.
Do you need me to explain how or do you know?
Yeah, and I've got about a minute here.
If you can speed through it.
Very quickly.
There is an inextricable link between freedom and prosperity illustrated in that decision.
Corporations are now allowed to spend money on commercials, buy media, hire directors, voiceovers, edit suites, you name it.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I should have remembered that.
I absolutely should have remembered that.
That's, in fact, you know, Obama's mad.
I got a couple soundbites.
He's mad at the Supreme Court on this.
I'm wondering, you know, we always get the cabinet at the State of the Union show.
Well, are we going to get the czars?
Will the Tsars be there?
You know, he could disinvite the Supreme Court because he's mad at them and seek the Tsars and then make an example of the Supreme Court as divisive and destroying our democracy and so forth.
It's been a horrible 10 days for the left and the Democrat Party.
Now, let me make it clear, folks, the fake data in the IPCC report, the Himalayan glaciers, purely political.
The UN scientist admitted faking the data because he wanted, in the report, purely to put political pressure on world leaders to impact them and politicians, encourage them to take some concrete action.
The whole movement is a fraud, and that's the point of it.
Fudging the data, making up the data, because they want their statist, big government control over everybody agenda implemented, and they can't do it with genuine science.
