| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Hiya folks, we're back.
It's Rush Limbaugh and the fastest three hours in media.
Also known as the Rush Limbaugh program here on the Excellence in Broadcasting Network.
It's a thrill and a delight, as always, to be with you.
And we'll get to your phone calls as always in this hour.
The telephone number is 800-282-2882, the email address, Lrushbow at EIBNet.com.
This wacko professor from the University of Alabama at Huntsville, Amy Bishop.
So she what is she shoots?
She took she fired at ten people and hit five or six people, hit three, whatever it was, because she was denied tenure last April.
She's lost it.
It was said that this woman was a rabid.
Fringe kook liberal who was so into Obama that she was off-putting to people.
In 1986, she shot her brother.
And the DA at the time, current Congress, Congressman Bill Dellahunt from Massachusetts, decided not to prosecute.
Now they're reviving that and saying he could have, I mean, this was not an accident.
It could have been some charges, but he didn't.
Dellahunt, by the way, also now threatening not to run.
And when in a situation like this, when a Democrat in Massachusetts says I'm not running, I think they mean I'm not running.
Now we learn that in March of 2002, this wacko professor, Amy Bishop, walked into an IHOP in Peabody, Massachusetts, in the Boston Globe, with her family, asked for a booster seat for one of her children and learned the last seat had gone to another mother.
According to the police report, this the Amy Bishop, the professor, strode over to that woman, demanded the seat, and launched into a profanity-laced rant.
When the woman would not give up the child seat, the booster seat, Bishop punched the woman in the head, all the while yelling, I am Dr. Amy Bishop.
I'm a professor.
I'm a professor.
I am Dr. Amy Bishop.
Now for this, she received probation, and prosecutors recommended she be sent to anger management classes, although this was assault.
It's unclear from court documents whether a judge ever sent her to anger management courses.
The woman who got beat up, identified as Michelle Jica, declined to comment, saying, It's not something I want to relive.
Is it not clear now?
The only place that would hire this nutcase is a university.
The only place that would hire it's it's stunning to me she did not get tenure.
But what I want to know is this, because each time some kook goes on a shooting rampage out there, the first thing the drive-bys do is try to find out the radio talk show listening habits of the kook.
And they turn over every rock.
They go through every bit of evidence they can find desperate to prove that the kook shooter listens to Rush Limbaugh.
So far, they haven't been able to find anything.
What I want to know is, where are those same phony drive-bys suggesting that this might be Obama's responsibility?
Like they've been dying to do to me for 20-plus years because this woman was so into Obama that she was off-putting.
Now, we obviously can't blame Obama for trashing this woman at the IHOP.
And by the way, what is a professor doing at an IHOP?
Doesn't she know that professors and elitists wouldn't dare go into an IHOP or a Denny's or a McDonald's or a Burger King or a KFC or a subway?
What the hell is she doing in an IHOP?
What's what's what's what's that great restaurant they took me up there to, uh, H.R. Lock Lober?
Shouldn't she be in that place?
Lock Lober.
That's she was she doing in a freaking IHOP.
Well, I know that's where the common people, the ordinary people who end up doing extraordinary things, they go to IHOP, they go to Mickey D's, they go to Subway, they go to KFC, they go to Pizza Hut, but professors don't.
You want to somebody tell me the last time anybody saw Skip Gates in an IHOP.
Somebody tell me the last time they saw Skip Gates in a Denny's having the grand slam breakfast.
This woman went into IHOP.
She had a grand slam breakfast on the head of another patron.
And she's in the gank for Obama.
Why does why does nobody well, I guess somebody just has, somebody pretty important just has.
That would be I, speaking in the nominative.
Young people would say that would be myself because they're improperly educated.
Nevertheless, Bill O'Reilly had Sarah Palin on last night, would not let go of this retard business.
We got two sound bites.
O'Reilly said, I want to give you a chance to clarify something.
You call for Rahm Emanuel to actually step aside because he used effing retard.
And then Rush Limbaugh said it.
He was talking about political correctness.
That was before Emmanuel, I think it was.
No, it wasn't, Bill.
You're missing and by the way, Bill Redda saw this last night.
Bill read an email at the image end of his program from one of his folks.
And one of his folks said, Look, uh Bertie Bernie Goldberg says lame stream media.
You ought to realize that Laura Ingerman Rush Limbaugh invented that term.
I just want to give a shout out to uh Bernie Goldberg.
I have never used lame stream media.
I didn't create that.
I don't know if Laura did, but I had nothing to do with it.
Mine's been drive-by or punk media, whatever.
State-controlled.
Well, I've never called him a lame stream media.
And I I never used the effing R-word syndrome until Rom Emanuel did it for the express purpose of pointing out this is how those people really talk.
We're the ones who get tarred and feathered with talking that way when we don't, and I'm just trying to ram it down the media's throat because you people on the left are the ones with the trash mouths.
You're the ones that have no respect for people that are not as good as you.
So effing retard is what they think of all of us.
I was just trying to highlight that.
So here's Sarah Palin's response.
Rom Emanuel, who represents the most powerful man, the leader of our free world, called a group of people whom he disagreed with effing retards.
Quite inappropriate.
And on my Facebook, I said there too.
I don't think he should be part of our president's inner circle making decisions that affect every single one of us.
He's given our president some very bad advice and a whole um realm of different areas.
And as for Rush Slimbaugh, no, I believe that it was after Ram Emanuel said what he said that Rush Limbaugh using satire, not calling a group of people effing retards, but using, yes, the R word.
And I said that, come on, let's all grow up and let's uh not call each other names because it certainly kind of invalidates what our argument's all about when we start calling people names.
Wasn't good enough for O'Reilly had to ask the question again for the folks to make sure the folks understood her answer.
Here's what he said.
Okay, but just to be clear, you didn't come down on Mr. Limbaugh because you felt that what?
He he didn't have any ill intent in what he said, or why didn't you come down on him a little bit?
As I have explained, he was using satire using the R word so he can bring to light what it was that Rahmanuel was calling other people.
And not just Rom Emanuel, but all of those elitist.
I'm glad I caught myself with the next word.
That one is not the R word, it was the T word.
I these people talk like this all they are the most condescending.
They are the most arrogant.
And they talk about people like that all the time.
Now this is funny.
The staff is in there trying to think what the T-word is.
Um you want me to create a picture so that you might be able to understand what the T word is?
Doesn't that kind of help you?
If I have to create a picture, it doesn't tell you.
Okay.
Let's see.
Picture to convey what I almost said that I am now characterizing as the T-word.
Because that's what these people are.
So imagine yourself in a swimming pool.
A lot of people in there.
You come up for air, and floating by your face is a Tootsie Roll bar.
Okay, as promised, let's go back to the phones.
Uh, Dave in Vancouver.
It's great to have you here.
Thank you so much for waiting.
Great to have you on the program.
How are you doing?
Make a dino to you, buddy.
Thank you, sir, very much.
Yeah, I'm a first-time caller, and I've only been listening to you for about three or four months, and I'm in your corner.
Well, by that three or four months, uh, and you're in my corner.
You've uh you've gone well past the minimum required six weeks to become addicted.
So welcome to the EIB network, sir.
Yeah, thank you.
Uh these are the tax breaks that that Obama's been talking about.
Now I'm a middle class blue-collar worker.
Last year I made a little over a hundred thousand dollars between me and the wife.
And this year we just barely cracked 70.
Uh I lost my job, got a new job, and all that kind of stuff.
And uh I got a whole whopping $500 back from Uncle Sam in federal taxes on my tax return.
Uh, but now wait, wait, wait, wait, what would be just a minute?
That does not mean you got a tax cut.
No.
No, what it means is I got raked over the coal.
I lost $30,000 in annual income, and I don't get anything back from the federal government.
What's going on there?
Well, um How do you call that a tax break?
Well, no, no, no, no, wait a second now.
Uh you didn't get a tax cut.
There's no question you didn't get a tax cut.
Nobody got a tax cut.
Um the tax cuts they're talking about were one-time tax credits.
You go out and buy a new muffler, uh, was what the original idea was.
But uh but you can't compare when you get 500 back in your tax return.
That just means that your withholding was adjusted in such a way that you paid more than you should have.
And so that $500 refund was a refuse.
You overpaid uh your taxes, and I'm I'm sure that was due to the fact that you kept the withholding where it was when your income was at a hundred thousand dollars.
So you did pay less in taxes, but you did not get a rate cut.
So you didn't you didn't make out.
I mean, you didn't you're not ahead of the game at all, other than the way you did it.
You had a $500 lump there that you might otherwise not uh not have had.
But don't don't that that was just because you didn't readjust your your withholding to match because you didn't know.
I mean, you're it sounds like you're an independent contractor in a lot of ways.
Your your income varies from uh from year to year.
But Dave, it's great to have you in the uh in the audience.
Thank you uh so much.
Um did you see that Obama has a new envoy to the organization of Islamic conferences?
In other words, Obama has a new envoy to the Muslim world.
Now, this guy's name is Rashad Hussein, and it may well be that he is a convicted uh not that it may well be that he vouched for a convicted terrorist.
All that's academic to me.
I want to know what in the world.
Why in the world does Obama need an envoy to the Muslim world?
What's he?
He went over there and made that Cairo speech.
I mean, why why would Barack Hussein Obama need an envoy to the Muslim world?
I thought Obama was unique in his connection with the Muslims.
I thought it was that bumbling cowboy, George Bush, would need a special envoy, but Obama is the special envoy, is he not?
And it's not even that.
NASA, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, plans more outreach to Muslim countries.
This is from the Orlando Sentinel.
It's not from Scott Ott, it's not from the Onion.
NASA administrator Charlie Bolden said yesterday that President Obama has asked him to find ways to reach out to dominantly Muslim countries as the White House pushes the space agency to become a tool of international diplomacy.
NASA?
What are we looking for?
Muslim astronauts?
Spacewalkers.
What is this?
And how about this, folks?
Three major firms have pulled out of the climate change alliance.
You're not seeing this reported in the state controlled media, but this is big news.
ConocoPhillips, BP America, that's British Petroleum, and Caterpillar.
May I remind you about Caterpillar and Obama?
up.
At the outset of his stimulus package, when we were told that the money would be used for shovel ready jobs.
He said the CEO of Caterpillar told him that he signed on to this as being good in the caterpillar CEOs.
I didn't say that.
And the caterpillar CEO continue to lay off people at work for Caterpillar.
So Conico Phillips, BP America caterpillar pulled out of a leading alliance of businesses and environmental groups pushing for climate change legislation on Tuesday, citing complaints that the bills under consideration are unfair to American industry.
The sudden pull out of three corporate giants from a leading alliance of businesses and environmental groups could be the death knell for climate change legislation that's cap and trade languishing on Capitol Hill.
This, folks, let me tell you what this is.
This is huge.
BP, think of it this way.
Think of it this way.
ConocoPhillips, BP America, and Caterpillar are the same as New Jersey, Virginia, and Massachusetts.
it's This is the tipping point.
And now that these three have decided to say hell with this, I wouldn't be surprised if more and more companies ever so slowly and ever so slightly pull out of this whole sham and go their own direction as well.
And one reason I think that there are going to be lawsuits that will be popping up all over the false research and claims.
Folks, do you realize how much money has been spent allocated and now wasted on a hoax?
We have destroyed the U.S. automobile business over a hoax.
We have polluted the minds of uh children in our public school system for decades over a hoax.
At some point.
Al Gore and these hoaxers ought to be subject to being sued big time.
This is not small.
This is not somebody or a group of people who were just a little wrong.
These people perpetrated a hoax knowingly for over 25 years.
And if I know people, I know people, there are going to be some lawsuits over this because there are so many people.
Al Gore has amassed a fortune of 500 million dollars investing in companies to deal with an imaginary non-existent problem.
There are so many people liable in this hoax, and many others want to throw them under the bus.
Now, a company in the old days, before crony capitalism showed up, wanted to do and give customers things that they would pay money for in order to earn a profit.
Now I've never seen a study, but I know that what I when I shop, everything's green or organic or carbon neutral.
The hoax is continuing.
All of this green this and green that.
It's nothing more than a slick marketing campaign to separate people from their money on the basis that they're pushing a political agenda in order to stay on good graces with the American people who've been duped into believing the hoax.
...
The light bulbs.
The compact fluorescent light bulbs.
It's part of a hoax.
We are in 2012 having a standard old ordinary Thomas Edison light bulb is going to be illegal.
For no reason whatsoever.
And they suck.
You put a compact fluorescent side by side with incandescent, take out this hoax, and I guarantee you what most people are going to buy.
incandescent.
Oh, this stuff frosts me.
I can't tell you.
Back to the phones.
Chris in Kennesaw, Georgia.
Welcome to the program.
Nice to have you here.
Hey, Russ.
Thanks for taking my call, Meg.
Two quick things before I get to my point.
Bill O'Reilly was clueless in that interview with Sarah Palin, and he proved it because he actually thought you said Epping retarded before Rama Manual.
And uh just imagine Amy Bishop if she was associated with the Tea Party movement and how you know how the uh media would be running.
Oh, that's exactly my point.
It's exactly my point.
You're exactly right.
But the reason I was calling was um, you know, given your great legal mind and the fact that you come from a you know uh family of great legal minds.
Isn't there some way to bring people like Al Gore up on charges of fraud over this global warming thing?
I think it's something I was just talking at some point.
I think this is going to happen.
Well, we've got trillions in fraud in the so-called green technology, and it's even reached fraudulent legislation with the light bulbs that you were just talking about, not to mention cap and trade, which is far from de uh uh far from dead, and the needless deaths that have occurred in these so-called hybrid cars that people have been duped into buying.
I know.
The list goes on.
Look, look at how children have been ill-educated, miseducated, lied to.
So that's got to be first.
Uh, and I I I just yeah, it's and it's big.
This is this is billions, if not trillions of dollars that have been redirected, redirected to a bunch of commie bastards who have been running a hoax for the express purpose of enriching themselves and advancing the whole notion of uh socialism, big government, liberalism, whatever you want to call it.
Well, Russ, just one more thing in closing as in regard to the T-word.
Just say Turtle Dove.
Uh just say turtledove.
We'll know what you mean.
All right, from now on, Turtle Dove.
You're awesome.
Thanks, take a card.
Freaking turtled.
Okay.
Well, that's helpful advice uh from uh Chris in Kennesaw, Georgia.
He's got a he's got a good question.
I I uh the fraud here uh and what it's cost people.
And uh the automobile industry, look at the look at the cafe standards, all this crap that was designed to save the planet.
Not to end pollution to stop the greenhouse, to stop the emissions of carbon dioxide.
Oh, a giant big lie.
A lot of people uh I probably shouldn't be public with this.
A lot of people ask me if I ever fear uh for myself on a security basis.
And not fear, you take steps.
You're heavily fortified wherever I happen to be.
But I am far more prepared to be fortified against people who I stand in the way of big money than I am afraid of people whose politics I disagree with.
We're talking trillions of dollars here on this global warming hoax, and if we're able to bury this, a lot of people are gonna not make a whole lot of money that they have been banking, and that makes them really mad.
And they might also be sued big time, which will also make them very mad.
Uh ask Tony Soprano what he does to people to stand in the way of him making a score, for example.
Now, Al Gore has a partner in this in this carbon trading organization that that that has enriched him to the point right now, I've most recent number I read was five hundred million dollars.
His partner is David Blood, former Goldman Sachs and Gore and David Blood co-founded Generation Investment Management.
Now, this is two years ago.
Former Goldman Sachs exec David Blood confounded Generation Investment Management with Gore, co-founded, and the firm now has nearly $1 billion under management.
That's two years ago.
Uh Al Gore's 100 million dollar makeover, current TV, uh generation investment management.
Inconvenient truth, generation investment management.
So this is folks, this has been a scam and a hoax, and it's ensnared the typical doofuses like Leonardo DiCaprio and a lot of the Hollywood left uh who are also in this for financial gain uh as well.
And here's here's how absurd this has got.
I'm I briefly touched on this earlier today.
There's a there's a new from Calif California Catholic Daily.
Very timely to this discussion, and Biden's out there today wearing carbon on his forehead.
He had the ash smear on his forehead today standing next to Obama.
From the California Catholic Daily, a new twist on Lent.
California's bishops suggest reduce your carbon footprint.
For Lent.
In its latest Public Policy Insights newsletter emailed to subscribers on February 12th.
The Catholic legislative network is recommending a new way to observe Lent, which begins today.
The newsletter is produced by the California Catholic Conference, the lobbying arm of the state's bishops.
As the Linton season arrived, the Catholic Coalition on Climate Change has provided Catholics, scrubs, and organizations with more tools and resources for its annual Catholic climate covenant, says the newsletter.
The coalition was formed three and a half years ago to help implement the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops 2001 initiative Global Climate Change, a plea for dialogue, prudence, and the common good.
Launched last year, the Covenant revolves around the St. Francis Pledge, which correlates five key actions.
Pray, learn, assess, act, and advocate to the issues of the environment and poverty.
I mean, holy carp, folks, is nothing sacred.
They have infiltrated the Catholic Church.
Or maybe the Catholic Church has allowed itself to be infiltrated.
According to this newsletter, the Archdiocese of Washington's Environmental Outreach Committee has created a particularly useful new tool, a calendar, and I have a compressed copy of it right there.
I'm not going to zoom in here.
I haven't got time.
That's the calendar.
A calendar that lists 40 carbon fasting measures individuals can take to reduce their carbon footprint.
A calendar contains suggestion for each of the 40 days of Lent beginning on Ash Wednesday today with remove one light bulb from your home and live without the light for the next 40 days.
What a cheap cop-out.
Other suggestions include turn down your thermostat by at least one degree.
Check windows and doors for a draft.
This is for Lent.
Making travel plans, consider getting there without flying is part of this calendar.
Check the tire pressure of your car today.
In other words, you can observe Lent according to these guys if you check the tire pressure of your car one day during the 40 days of Lent.
Learn about mountaintop removal mining.
Show reverence for life and for the earth today by obeying the speed limit.
This is not your father's Catholicism, folks.
The bishop's newsletter cited Daniel Mizla, the executive director of the Catholic climate covenant, as saying the calendar is another way to care for creation and aid the poor.
How does this aid the poor?
It's challenging.
It asks for sacrifices and to be more mindful of patterns of consumption.
It's a new twist on Lent.
Oh man.
As I said, holy carp.
Okay.
Back to the phones we go, ladies and gentlemen, to Jimmy Pascagoula, Mississippi.
Thank you for calling.
You're next on the program.
So great to have you here.
Thank you very much, a longtime listener.
Please indulge me to make my point.
If Obama and the demolition crats want to truly create jobs, there's over 250,000 structural steel bridges in the United States that fail at one per week.
The bridge in Minneapolis had just been inspected by the process that they used to inspection, which is just visual up until about a year ago, had just been inspected one month prior to its collapse up there on the Mississippi River in Minneapolis.
They could create so many jobs, putting people on the infrastructure, working on these bridges in the United States right now.
Two hundred and fifty thousand structural steel bridges that have fatigue and stress that most of most of them were built in the 50s and 60s, that trucks weighed a lot less, carried a lot less load.
The amount of traffic that went across these bridges was nowhere near the amount of traffic.
And the kids in the cars back there were not nearly as fat, which didn't put as much pressure on these bridges.
Exactly.
And now there's a company out that has an electric electronic fatigue sensing device that can structurally test these bridges down to one one hundredth of an inch.
I mean, that bridge was visually inspected, so all they did was go to most of the stress points, look at them and say, hey, it's okay.
But what about the fatigue of the fact that those bridges were engineered and designed to only carry traffic?
Some bridges, if people truly knew how unsafe they were, they wouldn't drink much less drive a two thousand pound car across it.
They wouldn't have to be a good thing.
Jimmy, I I thought the stimulus bill had fixed all these.
Well, I mean, it's what the purpose was to shovel ready jobs fix the infrastructure.
And Obama said that it's been a marvelous he said it's a marvelous success, Jimmy.
Are you sure about your facts on this one?
Oh, yeah, I'm very sure because I'm going to tell you what, not only that, do you see steel workers and the teamsters and all going to work right now?
Do you hear of any large quantities of workers working on these bridges?
No, you don't, because no one's doing it.
Well, you know, it's uh excellent idea.
Jimmy, I think these bridges just have to be patient.
I think all that work that you're talking about comes in twenty thirteen.
I have no idea what Tiger's gonna say Friday.
Big news, breaking news out there in the state control media, Tiger Woods, to make a public announcement or statement on Friday.
What are most of the accused say?
I didn't do it.
I I don't I don't I don't know, I've no idea.
No, he can't say that.
I don't know what he's gonna do.
I have no idea what he's gonna say.
Um probably a you know national apology from distracting from Obama's agenda.
So for who knows.
Ladies and gentlemen, um let me tell you where to look to find the difference in a government by the way, Megan Kelly right now is doing a segment, a little legal segment there.
Some woman fell off a stripper pole and is suing at some place called Crunch Fitness.
Crunch fitness fell off the stripper pole and what is this, a fitness center?
It's not a strip joint, it's a fitness center where you.
It's a new exercise.
Really, that's that's a new exercise rage.
Uh women pole stripping exercises.
Oh, well, that's what you get when you don't go to gyms.
You never know about these kinds of things.
Anyway, tell you where to look to find the difference in a government stimulus bill that'll help this economy versus Obama's one that isn't.
Representative Eric Cantor and Senator David Vitter have introduced bills that cut through all these government barriers to job creation while preventing more increases in the deficit.
Now the the the mainstream media may not give these bills the attention they should, but the Heritage Foundation will showcase them for you and point out the differences between their smart ideas and what the Obama administration is doing.
Eric Cantor and Senator David, they're both great guys, and they they realize the major reason for high unemployment right now is the lack of job creation in the private sector.
Not just the layoffs that we've seen.
And the Heritage Foundation has this information in a whole plethora of ways to stimulate the economy with the facts to back it up.
It's an Askheritage.org.
This, my friends, is the organization that conservatives in and around Congress look to for sound economic reasoning, and you should too.
Oh, you're not a member of the Heritage Foundation?
Well, it's not some elitist bunch of people.
It's for everybody who believes in our conservative principles.
You can join.
You should.
All you do is log on to Askheritage.org and make yourself a member.
Twenty-five bucks.
Chump change.
And you'll be amazed.
All the information and ideas they have to offer.
Check it out.
Ask Heritage.org.
Jerry in Long Island, I'm glad you called, sir.
You're next in the Rush Limbaugh program.
Hi.
Jerry in Long Island, is he there?
Oh, there you are.
Hi, Jerry.
Hey, buddy.
Hey, listen, man, I've been a listener since the early nineties, ever since that readers digest article about you years ago.
And um I just I I don't know, my dad was a big conservative and he passed away in 1990, and I said to myself, what am I gonna do now for information?
About a year later, I found you.
Well, God bless your dad and you.
Well, let me tell you something.
I'm a huge fan.
I've been listening, I'm I'm a contractor here on Long Island and I got the AM on all the time when I'm putting tile down all day.
And uh you appreciate it, thank you very Much.
And I'm glad that you're okay.
You had that little scare.
Um, you know, uh, when you were in Hawaii, and I'm so glad you're okay.
Nobody it was, you know, that was tough news to hear at first.
You're like a family member, even though you never met me.
And I just want you to know how much uh you're appreciated.
Thank you.
Thank you very, very, very much.
And um, the reason I'm calling is about um O'Reilly.
I didn't like the way O'Reilly was coaxing Sarah to talk bad about you.
I mean, I I don't appreciate that.
I like the Fox Channel, but I don't appreciate when O'Reilly does stuff like this, especially against you.
Because let's face it, if it wasn't for Rush Limbaugh, there'd be no Fox Channel.
Cal Thomas said it last year, and I totally agree.
Well, that's uh that's a uh uh I appreciate your support on the on these kind of things, uh uh Jerry.
I I really do.
But I understand why it happens, and I think you do too.
I do understand, but Rush, these people have to give you the respect that is due to you.
No, no, it's what look at it it's what I was talking about earlier, Jerry.
Exactly what I was talking about.
Everybody out there is trying to be the go-to guy.
They want to be perceived as the leader.
They want to be the one the media talks about whenever something X is said, that's the person that said it, and that makes it that this is why I don't like all these competing statements out there with all these different conservative groups, because it's a competition to see who can be the leader and who can be the smartest guy in the room rather than advancing an agenda.
Uh and and and that's what's necessary right now is advancing an agenda with with the simple understanding of what the agenda is, not an argument about who the smartest guy or the most powerful person in the room is.
Because we all know who that is anyway.
Absolutely.
I know who it is too.
That's why I listen, bro.
Thank you, Jerry.
I appreciate it very much.
San Diego's next.
This is Mark.
You're on the EIB network, sir.
Hello.
Hi, Rush.
Hey, you're the voice of our founding fathers out there.
Um, I have two questions.
Do you think this is the end of socialism we're seeing with FDR and the lack of money for Social Security Medicare and then the subprime mortgages that led to the bank collapse, which was for a socialist cause too.
I hope so.
Yeah.
Let me give let me give you some brief history.
In 1992, Ronald Reagan said Clinton agenda, this massive socialism, which is what it was when they started, won't work.
Just like communism, it will implode on the weight of its own immorality.
There have been four liberal Democrat administrations elected in my lifetime, and each one of them has eventually been rejected after one term and sent packing.
And the reason is the American people, when they finally find out what these compassionate Democrats actually implement, want no part of it.
But they do get elected.
There are cycles.
Every sixteen or twenty years, they do get elected.
Sometimes a little bit more frequently than that, but they do get elected.
And I think largely the reason for it is that the Republican Party lays down.
The Republican Party forgets what got it elected and starts turning into inside the beltway elitism itself.
And so people say, screw these people, throwing them out.
This is why.
This is why I say that the future of this country needs to be focused on telling and teaching as many people about ideology.
All we have to do is take the past year of the Obama administration and say this is what you're going to get every time you elect a Democrat.
Any Democrat.
This is what you're going to get any time, every time you elect a liberal.
Every time.
No matter how bad the Republicans get, they are nowhere near this incompetent or dangerous.
But every time you elect a Democrat, this is what you're gonna.
The last Democrat about whom this couldn't be said, and it was a close call, was JFK.
But FDR overreat they always overreach.
What has to happen to make this rejection permanent is that conservatives, genuine constitutional conservatives, have to take over the Republican Party.
They cannot go third party, they cannot abandon, they have to take it over.
Because these cycles are killing the country.
Teach liberalism.
Teach what the Democrat Party is and tell people this is no different, this is just worse because this is more never had a more radical bunch than this guy.
But this is what you're gonna get every damn time you elect them.
Well, look at this.
The governor of California, well, the the the husband of Jah Gabor is gonna run for governor.
His name is Prince Friedrich van Anholt.
And uh what he wants to do is legalize marijuana and tax it.
He wants to open the borders to Mexico for workers and tax them.
He wants to adjust fees from the Department of Motor Vehicles and promote natural gas and other alternative energies.
He's gonna stay home and promote California products, including marijuana.
