Time Text
And we are back, Rush Limboy and the Excellence in Broadcasting Network on Friday, last hour here.
Let's make it count.
Live from the Southern Command in Sunny, South Florida.
It's open line Friday.
Well, that's not true.
We're not sunny, South Florida.
We're in Las Vegas.
I have been asked not to reveal the location.
Security is afraid of mobs of people showing up to say hi.
So all I can say is we're in a super secret location.
You couldn't find it.
I mean, even if you if you had some idea, you wouldn't be able to find it.
If you knew the building, you couldn't find it.
Still not going to tell you where we are.
Telephone number 800-282-2882.
If you want to be on the program email address, Lrushball at EIV netcom.
Now, the uh thing about Open Line Friday, as you know, uh, is the uh day of the week where callers are allowed to bring up whatever they want.
Not the case Monday through Thursday.
This is our last hour of the show today, a last hour from Las Vegas.
We'll be back with a high definition Ditto Cam in full swing on Monday after the final night of the Miss America pageant, the one you'll all see on television tomorrow night at 8 o'clock Eastern on the TLC network.
So Obama says he's not a Bolshevik, but folks, the Communist Party USA loves Obama.
Here just some sample headlines.
CP, USA and Obama platforms are identical.
August 8th, 2008, forget for the moment about Bill Ayers and Obama's other communist friends and mentors of the distant past, and they go on to cite how his agenda and theirs, their platforms, Obama's and the CPUSA are identical.
And look, I mean, we had some fun with this in the first hour, but Obama has come out now, Osama, Osama, has come out and starts spouting every talking point on global warming from Al Gore and a Nobel Peace Prize winning United Nations to Barack Obama.
Beating up on America, America's destroying the planet, America didn't sign Kyoto, uh Obama's signaling his uh his desire to destroy uh USA, its economy, Western civilization, capitalism, uh just what the Communist Party USA wants, just what uh Obama is doing.
Here's from uh, let's see the date of this one.
CPUSA Obama will change USA forever.
And they're happy about it.
August 7, 2008, Communist Party CPUSA endorses Obama.
Communist Party USA hails Obama victory from the understandably elated editors of the Communist Party USA's People's Weekly, formerly the Daily Worker.
Uh July 1st, 2009, Communist Party USA celebrates Obama's first six months.
Communist Party USA to take the streets for Obama, August 10th, 2009.
This is to oppose the Tea Parties and the uh the town hall meetings that are going on.
Communist Party USA honors SEIU and the AFS CME union leaders.
CPUSA speech lays out Obama gender.
I mean, it's it's right there for people.
And these these are not, you know, play communists.
Well, they're not all that powerful here.
Well, they uh they are actually with Obama in office, but uh I'm just I'm just he says that he's not a Bolshevik.
I'm not an idiot.
Uh but he uh most definitely is.
I have this thing.
I I I still don't know if this is satire.
If it's not satire, folks, it's just it's from the uh UK telegraph.
If it's not satire, uh this would explain why the British Empire will never ever be anything close to a British Empire again.
Nicole Mamo, 48, wanted to post an advertisement for the $5.80 or $5.80 an hour domestic cleaner on her local job center plus website.
The text of the advertisement ended by stating that any applicant for the job, quote, must be very reliable and hard working.
Unquote.
But when Ms. Mamo called the Job Center Plus in Norfolk the following day, she was told that her advertisement would not be displayed.
A job center plus worker claimed that the word reliable meant that they could be sued for discriminating against unreliable workers.
Ms. Mamo, a mother of two, said the situation was ridiculous.
I placed the advertisement on the website, and when I phoned up to check, I was told that it hadn't been displayed in the job center itself because we can't put that up there because they could have cases against them for discriminating against unreliable people.
I laughed because I thought that was crazy.
We supply the NHS with staff, so it's very important for the patients that we have reliable workers.
We find jobs for hundreds of temporary staff every week and are proud of our workers, but our reputation is at stake if they aren't reliable.
I mean, we're taking people off the dole, we're finding them jobs, so not displaying the advertisement just seems absolutely ridiculous to me.
It does to me too.
I still can't believe the UK telegraph is not a gossip site.
It's not it's not a satire site.
But see that even if it is, the good comedy requires an element of truth, and the political correct people of the world and in this country would no doubt applaud this kind of thing.
Did you happen to notice the other day, and you may not have because I haven't talked about it.
Uh Obama has canceled all future moon trips.
He's canceled the development of the rocket that would take astronauts back to the moon.
He is redefining the mission of NASA away from space and aeronautics and toward the monitoring of global warming.
When the White House releases budget proposal on Monday, there will be no money for the constellation program that was supposed to return humans to the moon by 2020.
The troubled and expensive Ares 1 rocket that was to replace the space shuttle to ferry humans to space will be gone, along with money for its bigger brother, the Aries 5 cargo rocket that was to launch the fuel and supplies needed to take humans back to the moon.
In the meantime, the White House will direct NASA to concentrate on Earth science projects, principally researching and monitoring climate change, and on a new technology research and development program that will one day make human exploration of asteroids and the inner solar system possible.
Perhaps NASA could use the extra climate babysitting money as a new report suggests the agency may have been complicit in skewering the record on global warming.
We all know that James Hansen is an insane lunatic, uh violating all kinds of federal rules about opinionating as a federal employee.
Um he's part of this this whole hoax that was going on at East Anglia, the university over there.
Uh and and the manipulation of data, all of this was going on.
So NASA, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, canceling space exploration.
And instead, uh we uh ladies and gentlemen are going to be monitoring global warming.
Isn't that cool?
By the way, folks, we're still at the peak of cold season.
And I just found something new.
Zycam, now it's not new.
I mean, Zycam's been around a long time.
And there are all kinds of different ways you can use Zycan.
You know what Zycam's the stuff that if you catch it, you're cold, as soon as you think you're coming down with it, you use Zycam.
The odds are you will slow down the onset.
You're not going to totally beat it.
It's not a cure, don't misunderstand, but it will shorten the duration and it will significantly uh lessen the symptoms that you suffer.
And there are a number of different uh ways.
There are lozenges uh that you you let dissolve on your tongue.
Uh they come in different flavors.
There's also an oral mist, an oral mist.
I can show it to you right here.
That's it.
You spray it in your mouth.
It's also a breath spray.
You spray it in four spots in your mouth and tastes good.
And uh, well, you gotta hit your mouth first.
I hit my cheek on one of those.
But nevertheless, it works and it tastes good, and it is easy to use.
It's even easier than the gel swabs were to use.
You know, they were they've been banned because uh Obama's seeking to do damage to all my clients.
But they are creative as ICAM and they've come up with alternative ways to get the active ingredient that makes the product work in different forms.
And now they have the cold remedy oral mist.
This, I happen to have, I'm holding here my formerly nicotine stained fingers, the mint scent flavor.
And it really just spray it four times in four different areas of the mouth, and don't drink anything for a while.
Uh, you can blow your nose, but you you can't drink anything for a while, and it's magic.
It works and it's easy.
And it it fits inside even the smallest handbag.
Zycam cold remedy oral mist.
Look for it.
Buy a case of it.
Give it to your friends and have it everywhere you are in case you come down with a bad cold.
And before we get back to the uh phone calls of some sound bites, I intend again, let's get them now here.
We're starting audio soundbite 13.
John Kerry, the uh the haughty French-looking uh man from Massachusetts who also served in Vietnam last Wednesday in Washington, he was speaking at a uh 2010 clean energy jobs and security forum and said this.
Tea party votes to go out there and get angry because they're uh God's sakes.
We have a lot of citizens gonna get angry about the fact that we'd be killed and our planet is injured by what's happening on a daily basis, while we provide our power and our fuel and the old practices that we have.
That's something we're getting angry about.
Did you hear that?
Were you able to understand what he said?
And it's a typically cheap Democrat microphone in a room that has worse acoustics than the one I'm in.
Okay, here's I'll tell you what he said.
You know, if the Tea Party folks go out there and get angry because they think their taxes are too high, for God's sake, a lot of citizens ought to get angry about the fact that they're being killed and our planet's being injured by what's happening on a daily basis, but the way we provide our power and our fuel and the old practices that we have.
That's something worth getting angry about.
So he wants the environmentalist wackos to go get as angry as the Tea Party people.
It's not anger, it's passion.
The anger they already have, they are angry is on general principles.
They're angry because they hate being alive.
They are self-loathing people, these leftists.
And they didn't, I can't imagine what it would be to get up get up and live their life every day.
To have to be mad all the time at everybody else, knowing full well you are a failure and having the inability to do anything about it because you will not look at yourself.
You got to blame George W. Bush, or you gotta blame corporations, or you have to blame somebody.
Blame talk radio.
My gosh, Tea Party people are not terrorists.
The environmental left Senator Carey has actual terrorism.
And they get prosecuted for it.
The in the Earth Liberation Front.
Some guy tried to plant at a at an automobile dealership a bunch of car bombs, uh, or one car bomb, or uh uh uh actually a gasoline bomb, and it didn't go off.
And it was found, uh, and he'd put the uh initials, he'd carved them right above where the thing was, so it would be seen later.
It was going to try to blow something up.
I mean, these people get prosecuted.
They had earth first and all this.
I mean, the environment Senator Kerry, what are you talking about?
These people are enraged already.
It's that they're wrong and that the the passion that they have is not for anything positive.
You can't compare them to the Tea Partiers.
Here's Doris Currans Goodwin, well known as a plagiarist.
But she, despite that, is one of the most respected voices in a Democrat Party and on the left.
She is an historian.
She's married to Richard Goodwin, who's a funny guy.
Uh if I were a woman, I wouldn't want to be married to him, but women look at men differently, I suppose.
And uh she always on TV and she does speak very well.
She's very articulate, very clean, uh, and and well spoken.
And there's no there's no Boston dialect when she speaks, unless she wants to have it.
She's done bios on a lot of people, did bios on LBJ, and there were rumors about what went on there.
How she was able to learn so much.
So she was uh on and one of her favorite networks is MSNBC.
She's there all the time, and she was on with uh with uh with Scarborough, and Scarborough asked her, is the first Year of the Obama presidency going to be looked back on by historians as a health care failure.
The most important thing historians look at for the first year is what did it reveal about the temperament of the guy who was there.
For example, JFK's first year was a disaster on the surface.
And yet he had learned so much from that year that when the Cuban Missile Crisis came along, he had changed his decision-making style.
Obama is a man who, even though he didn't have tons of experience before he came in, he's had experience this year.
And the greatest hope is that he's learned from that experience.
Wait a minute.
Well, you know what I love about this, folks, is that all during the campaign.
We were told his experience didn't matter, because he was clean and articulate and didn't have a black dialect except when he wanted to.
And he was so fresh, he was unlike anything we had ever had before.
Remember that?
Post-partisan, post-racial, post-achievement.
He was a messiah.
He was the one he had been waiting for.
You know, all that rot gut.
And now all of a sudden, after this first disastrous year when he's got supermajority in the Senate, a clear majority in the House, and can't get most of what he wants done after the first two to three weeks.
Now all of a sudden, what happened?
He didn't have any experience.
I just I I love these elites and the way that they look at things.
And Barney Frank, our last soundbite before we go to the phones, this morning on CNBC Squawk Box, the co-host Betty Quick was talking to Barney Frank, and I usually have to translate these anyway.
Uh question was what is the message coming from the voters of Massachusetts after you lost the Kennedy seat?
People are angry that uh we did a lot to try and strive the economy back up, uh and they haven't seen it yet.
I think there is that anger.
There is uncertainty and concern about the health care bill.
Clearly, the fact is that the Obama recovery from the Bush recession has gone much more slowly than we had hoped.
And uh at some point people forget that there was a Bush recession and they focus on the slow Obama recovery.
I don't think they forget there's a Bush recession.
The frigging president reminds them 15 times a day.
All told it's probably 30 times a day, given how many times you people in Congress talk about the Bush recession.
Hell, it's now being called the lost decade, which in truth refers to the Japan economy of the 80s, but it's the lost decade.
Maybe it was the Japan economy of the 90s, which whichever.
However, ladies and gentlemen, uh Barney's got it all wrong.
He's a smart guy.
He he's he's not dumb.
But to blame Bush, to blame Bush and the anger at Bush for explaining why a majority of Democrats in the state elected a Republican.
They're back on their heels more than I knew.
Here's Matt, Grand Rapids, Michigan, your first.
It's great to have you in this hour, and it's great to have you with us.
Hey, Mega Diddles Rush from Global Warming 18 Degree Grand Rapids.
Thank you very much.
Freeze and here, I could use some of that global warming.
Um I'm calling because I don't know if you realize what a gift you've given to the administration and the Democrats in your um in your recommendation to hold the KSM trial in D.C. Or Detroit.
I uh it's a Detroit also an option, but what do you like about D.C.?
Well, uh, what I like about the D.C. uh area is uh politically uh it would be um a gift to the Democrats, especially going into the November election, because they don't have any representation in Congress.
There's no Senators or Congressman, so it would be it would truly be a neutral venue.
So it would be perfect.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
In other words, it's the only time.
I've had a long week.
I'm not getting much sleep because I'm up late.
But you say there aren't any Democrats in Washington?
No, no, uh the uh the district isn't represented in Congress.
Oh.
So so it's Oh, oh, oh, so nobody can lose their job if Washington gets hit.
Yes, and yes, and it's the only place the trial could possibly be.
And I mean, and and I think you're you've you've shown genuine outreach to the administration.
Well, yeah, I I look, I'm I'm always willing to help.
Um you've got that right.
You've got that right.
Uh well, but there is there is there I hate I hate looking.
You got a great idea here, and I I applaud your thought, but uh, there's one thing I do have to point out.
They do have a uh an advocate, a a non-voting representator, uh representative.
I forget what the exact title was Eleanor Holmes Norton.
So they do have somebody in there.
But she doesn't get elected.
Joe, you're right.
At least she's appointed.
Or the mayor picks her, or maybe somebody just decides, hey, I want to be the representative in the House and you clear it through Jesse Jackson and you get it done.
Maybe you have to call Sharpton now too to get that done, but I don't know.
The reason for DC is that Obama and Holder uh dole out federal money, give it to D.C. I mean, the place needs it.
200 million dollars for security for the trial.
They got federal courthouses there and a big circuit there.
And holders right there.
We can monitor the trial, go in there every day.
Make sure that the prosecutors are doing exactly what he wants, prosecuting it in a way so that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed gets a big soapbox to really bump all over Bush and Cheney so that these wild idiots over in Europe, the international court could maybe bring war crimes trials, uh charges against Bush and Cheney, which is which is what they want.
Now the other thing to do is uh is Detroit.
This is my second idea.
Because I mean, really, in our in our system, uh judicial system, folks, one of the requirements, one of the things that sets us apart from all other civilized and uncivilized countries, particularly the uncivilized ones.
What sets us apart is finding a jury of our peers when we are accused.
You will not find a better place to possibly put together a jury of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed's peers than in Detroit.
I mean, Dearbornistan is is is right there.
It's it's a it's play it.
There's also you could also, here's a third place you could go.
Los Angeles.
Los Angeles, you could get a jury out there that could find you innocent after two years of incontrovertible evidence, just cause they don't like the mayor and the police chief.
So, I mean, there's any number of places a holder uh could uh could do this since New York no longer wants a truck as Chuck Yu Schumer does want to be re-elected.
Uh quick timeout, back after this, don't go away.
I was silly.
I was silly getting my hopes up on uh the new trial location, Washington, Detroit, maybe LA.
Uh the Obama administration has already said they're gonna keep it in New York, but not in Manhattan.
They want to move it to Governor's Island.
There's a tiny little island.
It's not populated.
It used to have uh uh some sort of a military installation.
The only reason I know that is because when I first moved to New York, I had some friends, a real tight wads, and they came in for the weekend and he stayed out there, and I I didn't know anybody could stay there.
I don't know if they had to pitch a tent or what.
So Governor's Island is is one place, or a uh uh uh some military installations nearby.
Now, I don't know if this is gonna please Chuck U. Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand and the New York congressional delegation plus the mayor and all that, because I mean, Governor's Island is just you know, uh a George Washington silver dollar toss from Manhattan, and you still got to drive the guy back and forth to a prison every day to the trial is there, which is gonna keep the security, it's it's still gonna be disruptive.
This is the Obama administration.
It's two things now.
They've thumbing their nose at the New York demigration.
They have defunded the 9-11 health care plan for New York and its people there, and now this the mayor and uh Chuck Hugh Schumer, and everybody says, please we don't want this trial here.
We want to get re-elected.
They saw what happened in Massachusetts.
So Obama says, fine, we'll just move it about a couple feet uh over to Governor's Island.
Here's uh here's Dave in uh Wyoming on a cell phone.
Great to have you with us, sir.
Hello.
Hey, big rig driving ditto, Rush.
Thank you very much.
Got a question about your Miss America judging.
Yeah.
First of all, let me thank you for your service for going down there.
I mean, Las Vegas and Miss America contestants parading around.
That must be awful.
Well, somebody has to do it, and and everybody has to be somewhere.
Uh and my name came up.
Yeah.
Hey, uh, I want to know if you've experienced the strange phenomenon yet that when uh a black contestant is on the stage, you forget that she's black.
You are not helping happen.
You are not helping me out here.
Actually, that the black contestants are not on the stage for 70 minutes or at least an hour, and it took that long for Matthews to realize uh that he'd forgotten Obama was black, uh, which again caused a little bit of a stir, but but no, I uh we're we're colorblind here at the Miss America pageant.
What would the media rush have done to you had you said something so completely off the wall, stupid, ignorant like that?
Oh, I know.
I've had a bunch of people say, but if I had said that, if I had said what Harry Reid said.
He's a light skinned black, doesn't speak with a Negro dialect unless he wants to, this guy can win.
If I had said that, oh, you'd still be here.
Well, you're still hearing about my comments that were not even about Donovan McNabb, and it's five or six years after the fact now.
So you're exactly right.
A brilliant uh uh observation on your part.
Rush, the drive-by media has forgotten how to blush.
Yeah, I don't think you can embarrass them.
It's pure propaganda all the time.
They're shameless.
Good way to do it.
Thanks very much, Dave.
I appreciate the phone call.
By the way, speaking of this American page, I was gonna bring this up because I frankly had forgotten it, but till this guy's call.
Last night, uh, they've had a different MC each night of the preliminaries, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday night.
Last night was the final night of the preliminaries.
And and last night's MC was uh Dina Blizzard, uh comedian from New Jersey, and she she involved off the cuff us six judges.
She decided it's time for us to judge the judges.
The judges get to sit here and judge everybody else.
And so, you know, we're we're caught up in this and uh we have to play along.
And there was only one actual thing we had to perform, and that is we all had to stand up on cue and dance.
All six of us.
And in the audience was gonna vote as to which one of us was the winner.
So I got up and I started dancing, and I I did the uh the Jersey fist bump uh because that's what she said she wanted, and I was doing the Jersey fist bump, and I went kind of nuts there for 30 seconds.
And lo and behold, if I didn't win it, I won the judge talent show last night, was called up on stage, the retiring current Miss America, Katie Stamm, uh who uh will crown the new Miss America on Saturday night, gave me a that they didn't have uh a Mr. America sash, so they created one that said Mr. New Jersey.
And it was a picture of me wearing that, and they get I couldn't find a coffee cup named Rush, so they got me one with the name Roy on it.
And uh and gave me the Katie Stamm, the current Miss America signed it.
And all the Miss America pageant contestants are on stage.
This is at the end of the night.
So I just wanted you people to know I won a talent contest here at the Miss America Pageant, but I was not competing against uh against the girls.
John in Fondulac, Wisconsin.
Great to have you with us on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hello, Mr. Limbaugh.
Hi.
Um I am a recent graduate of Purdue University with a BS in aeronautics and astronautics, and I wanted to expand a little bit on what you were saying about what Obama's doing to the space program.
It two big things disturbed me about this.
First, that he would spend 700 billion dollars quite uselessly on the stimulus bill, and also and skewer one of the only civilian government agencies that has pr that has produced any kind of real measurable benefits for the United States.
And it also disturbs me that he would make that something like this would come out during NASA's Remembrance Week because all the three um fatal NASA accidents happened next week.
There's one thing, there's one thing to learn about this, and that is that Obama is a Bolshevik.
He is an ideologue, and what he's doing is using he take every government agency and turn it in to an engine or a machine to advance his agenda.
So you take SpaceX, well, they're not taking space exploration out of the way.
They're still gonna study asteroids.
But there were big plans to go back to the moon to prepare for maybe uh going back.
This you know who's gonna really be torn up over this is um oh I haven't a mental block.
Guy who wrote a brief history of time, the smartest guy in the world.
Stephen Hawking.
Stephen Hawking.
Stephen Hawking says that we have no hope if we can't get off the earth.
We gotta colonize.
So This gotta devastate him.
He's got to be just as devastated today as Obama.
I'm sorry, Osama bin Laden was, because he's got this big bit out there blaming us for global warming today when it's actually water vapor.
Somebody's got to tell him that, and I wouldn't want to be the person that has to tell Osama that it's not America, it's water vapor.
Now somebody's gonna tell Stephen Hawking that we're not gonna be able to colonize anywhere because Obama has shut it down.
So every government agency is now a tool to advance this radical agenda.
Uh Byron York has a fascinating piece today in the Washington Examiner.
And it's about questioning whether Obama is tired of the job.
And what Byron's done is gone back and looked at Obama's history, his work history, starting uh when he felt he was behind enemy lines in the private sector at some law firm, and then the uh Illinois legislature and it was actually community organizing, because every place he went, he didn't like having so little power.
Uh he he he the reason in fact Byron says he wanted to go to Harvard because he wanted to learn about power.
He Obama wanted to learn how to get it, how the people who had it networked, how the people who have power uh uh implemented it, uh, and how they got it.
And he figured Harvard was the place to learn it.
So he went there.
And he comes out of Harvard and he goes to uh uh Illinois legislature, and it's not satisfactory enough.
Gets bored with it, not enough power.
Uh goes to the U.S. Senate, and the story says that Harry Reed took Obama's side.
Look, this is not your place.
You're not gonna go anywhere here.
It's gonna you have to be here too long to go in, you're not gonna want to spend the time.
I can tell you don't want to be here.
And it said, Harry Reed, you need to run for president.
I think a lot of the stuff is in that book.
Um whatever, this this new book that these guys saved all this stuff to make a profit on rather than put it in a news account of the campaign.
I can't remember the head chains.
Uh that group, I don't know what I can't remember.
It's all in there.
And so uh uh uh what Byron's theorizing now is Obama tired of this job.
I mean, he's got all the power, he's got the most powerful job in the world, but it's useless.
He can't get anything done.
His big things are being stymied.
He's got these supermajorities, and is he tired?
Is he getting bored with it?
And if he is, what's he gonna do next?
He's thinking he can't just quit.
Uh presidents don't just quit.
So if he's bored, he's got to do something to keep himself energized.
And that's gotta be trying everything he can to implement this agenda.
So turning this this NASA into a tool to advance this radical agenda that's typical.
Uh and in in the process, tear down the things that do work.
Remember, this this is a guy and his out of the 60s.
These are this blame America First People.
The people in the 60s, Bill Ayers trying to blew up the Pentagon.
These are people who did not like this country.
They were trained and educated not to like it, and in some places to hate it.
I gotta go a quick time out here.
We'll finish up with your calls when we come back.
Don't go away.
Ha.
Welcome back, Rush Limbaugh.
It's open line Friday from Las Vegas.
Here's the Reuters headline of Obama's trip to the Republicans today.
Obama assails Republican foes, urges bipartisan effort.
A sales, urges bipartisan effort, uh sales.
I have a friend, ladies and gentlemen, who just sent me a note backing up what I said about Governor's Island as a place not suited to trial, try Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.
As I I described it as being a George Washington silver dollar throwaway from Manhattan.
His friend says to me, only somebody who has not been to Governor's Island would propose having the KSM trials there.
I go there several times here to take the kids of Little League games.
Governor's Island is about a three-minute ferry ride from lower Manhattan.
Great view of the Statue of Liberty, so Khalid Sheikh Muhammad could look at the target of one of his future attacks.
There's barely enough functioning infrastructure on the island for a little league game before each game is played there.
The cut the kids' coaches send out warnings to bring water because only the only drinkable water is about a half mile from the baseball field in makeshift bathrooms by the ferry terminal.
The Coast Guard departed, that's what it was.
That's where my cheap friend stayed.
It's a Coast Guard is to late.
The Coast Guard departed years ago, and all the quarters, offices, et cetera, have been deteriorating while the state and city have been fighting over what to do with the place.
Food is available during summer weekends only on hot dog carts and ice cream trucks that come over from the mainland on the ferry.
That is where Obama wants to put the Khalid Sheikh Mohammed trial.
Governor's Island.
It is three minute ferry ride from uh and it it's it's down near Lower Manhattan, by the way.
Here's uh Casey in Casper, Wyoming.
Great to have you on open line Friday.
Hello.
Yeah, many wild ditto rush.
Uh yeah, I just want to make a comment on the uh the the remarks uh President Obama made about uh being a really good one-term president.
Yeah, yeah.
Um yeah, if he was really good in his one term and he assumes he wouldn't be re-elected, who is he being good for besides the American people?
Uh uh that's no being good for himself.
That's a that's an excellent point.
Be a what really good one-term president the people would reject him.
That's that's exactly right.
One good look at this guy knows what he's doing.
He knows he's gonna be governing against the will of the American people, and his definition of success is succeeding in defying the American people.
That's why I say I want him to fail.
And that comment about be a really good one-term president or mediocre two-term president, can only mean if I lose in one term, I mean I've done such a great job of implementing my statist vision that I am sent packing.
Great, great point.
One more time, folks, before I get back to New York, a time to remind you about the latest greatest offer that expires today from Pro Flowers.
It's one dozen sweet expressions roses.
Dawn, you claim to know what a sweet expressions rose is.
Right?
A tulip, right?
All right.
Just so everybody knows.
Because I got grief, because I didn't say that it was a tulip.
People act, well, how do you know what it is?
You're sloughing it off on uh on everybody else.
Anyway, one dozen sweet expressions roses, 2999 plus shipping, or double.
Well, it's not a tulip.
Well, what is it?
You told me it was a tulip yesterday.
It's a sweet expression rose.
We're getting confused here.

It's uh it's it's oh, she was telling me she loves the pro flower tulips, and I miss I thought I I put the wrong things together.
The tulips last all year, right?
And that's what she's okay.

Welcome to the EIB network.
Hello.
All right, thank you, Rush.
After President Bush won his second term, and Vice President Cheney said he wasn't gonna run.
Why didn't uh Bush appoint a new vice president so we would have a good chance to win the next election and not be stuck with you know who.
Uh Senator McCain.
I guess so.
I don't know.
I I I uh uh uh I uh I don't think he was ever gonna replace it.
That that would have been throwing the left uh uh uh red meat that that there was no way, because they were they were clamoring for Cheney in jail and Rove in jail.
They were clamoring for Cheney to be locked up.
So the only way that was happening if Cheney decided to resign, and he wasn't going to resign.
Uh he took the he took the job too seriously, and there was no way Bush is gonna replace him, especially for a political purpose uh like that.
That's that's my take on it anyway.
I'm wild guessing here, but my political instincts, uh like all of my instincts, Are good.
Don't doubt me.
Not to mention the fact, folks, a dirty bomb on Governor's Island, dirty bomb could tie up New York Harbor for decades.
It's a stupid place to put this trial.
Now we've been joking around about the Pro Flowers offer that does expire today, but this the uh uh sweet expressions roses.
They're smaller roses, they're red, pink, and white.
And uh they're not tulips.
We're just having fun here because it's been sort of a I'm giddy today, not much sleep all week, and had a lot of fun.
This it's not tulips, and it's they're little roses, and they're really beautiful.
And at Proflowers, Rush Proflowers.com.
We'll see you Monday back at our home base at the Southern Command.
Have a great week.
