Time Text
Hey Snerdley, you know the the uh the the media is out there and they keep asking how come all these Tea Party people are white?
How about they were born that way?
How come they're not asking?
How come most acorn members are black?
Because they were born that way.
And what do you bet the volcanic eruptions in Iceland have an effect on unemployment next Thursday?
Live from the Southern Command in Sunny, South Florida.
It's open line Friday.
Human being should be allowed to have.
Open line Friday.
We go to the phones.
The content of the program is all yours.
Also a very special day.
This is our 20th anniversary.
The 20th straight year of raising money to cure leukemia and lymphomas, the annual EIB network, leukemia, lymphoma Curathon.
And I guess I should not be surprised by it anymore.
We are again running ahead of last year.
And this is a second year.
You know, I'm not a I'm not you people know I'm not a negative person, but I am realistic.
And with uh the unemployment level where it is, uh economic activity not all that hot, uh prospects for future economic growth not all that hot.
Well I wouldn't have been surprised if uh we came in a little below last year's levels.
And last year I thought the same thing, but we are exceeding last year's uh levels.
By the way, HR, that email you sent me, can I make that public?
Okay, okay.
There are two sisters in Seattle.
Or is it Oregon?
Yeah, just outside.
Just oh, yeah, they just outside of Portland.
That's right.
The two sisters, we've mentioned them on this program before.
They sent me a gorgeous uh bronze sculpture of a pelican that we have back there.
Uh and they have done this uh a couple prior occasions where they have matched just last hour, they have matched my donation, which started at 250,000 in the first hour, and then the level of uh contributions you all made were making me look like a piker, so I upped it to 400,000 in the second hour, and they've matched that.
So we're way ahead of the game as uh as we were last year.
So thanks to the two sisters, they they they know that I know who they are, but uh they don't want their names mentioned, obviously.
They're not in this for the glory.
Uh nobody is.
They're in this for the results.
They're in this for the work.
That is being done to fight blood cancers of all kinds and all kinds of progress is being made.
I'm this new immunotherapy project for the most uh common form of adult leukemia, CLL, this really dazzles me.
They're just in in in the stage one trials here, but what they have discovered is that cancer cells in CLL become immune to treatment after a while.
So these cells are extracted from the body.
They are genetically modified to prod the body's own immune system to destroy them, and then they are infused back into the patient.
Now, phase one trials, the first two patients now have no detectable cancer cells eight months later.
Ten more patients are needed to complete phase one trials, but these are the same kind of results that amazing results that uh the experience with Glevec and Glevec is something that has been developed and is now used during the lifespan of the 20 years of our curathon here.
So this is another milestone development, phase one still, but it's very, very promising.
That's huge.
And the premiums, once again, if yes, I s Snerdly, I get all three premiums for my and so do the sisters.
Yes.
Here are the premiums.
$70 donation, a special edition EIB t-shirt, has the EIB microphone radiating brilliantly on the front, one size fits all.
For $100, you get that t-shirt as well as a premium rush golf hat.
Fully adjustable, navy Blue with a red star and my signature across the front in white for 340 bucks.
The real climate cool type golf shirt, high quality, moisture wicking, quick dry technology.
It is white.
Navy colored EIB logo on the breast, my signature on the sleeve.
These are made to order.
You can size.
Small, medium, large, extra large, or double XL.
When you call or go online, the numbers 877-37988, or you can donate online at rushlinbaug.com.
We had a landlord call here last hour saying he had called the IRS, spent two hours with them.
He had gone to Louise Slaughter's office because she led uh the committee uh fighting for the health care bill.
So, look, I want to know uh when these investment taxes start on Medicare tax and investment.
I need to know if it's gonna be on the gross or if it's going to be on the uh on the net because all of my income is investment income.
And nobody could tell him.
After two hours with a member of Congress, two hours with IRS people, even the IRS person, well, the one person here that should know this is me, and I don't know it.
I'm sorry I can't help you.
Get this story.
This is from the Investors Business Daily.
Wednesday, yesterday, or two days ago, Los Angeles City Councilman Richard Alarcone introduced a motion to freeze rents solely because he claims he cares about fairness.
According to him, a one-year hold on increases in rent will help our working families and give the council time to consider longer-term fixes to ensure fairness in our rent control ordinance.
Alarcone's plan sounds wonderful, doesn't it?
Oh, yeah.
He says that Los Angeles.
So uh what about the landlords?
They're gonna lose their incentive to stay in business.
You freeze rents?
They're supposed to lose money.
That this is fairness.
This is the left's definition of fairness.
There's an interesting column today in the Washington Post by a couple of Democrat polsters.
One's Doug Schoen, the other was Pat Cadell.
Um, and uh these two guys have been threatened and vilified by members of their own Democrat Party.
These are Democrat pollsters.
I think Doug Schoen was big in the Clinton White Houses.
And here's the pull quote.
Democrats can avoid the electoral bloodbath we predicted before passage of the health care bill, but in only one way.
Through a bold commitment to fiscal discipline and targeted fiscal stimulus of the private sector and entrepreneurship.
Mr. Sean and Mr. Cadell.
We shall have a bath of blood because this will not happen.
Now, why did you what did I say, Snertley, that perked you up when I said bath of blood?
I'm just quoting them.
Democrats can avoid the electoral bloodbath.
That's as Cadell and Schoen that we predicted for the Democrat Party.
In one way, through a bold commitment to fiscal discipline and targeted fiscal stimulus of the private sector and entrepreneurship.
Well, the regime's not going to do that.
The regime's doing the opposite.
The regime is inflicting pain on entrepreneurs and on the private sector.
So there will be a political bath of blood.
Somebody better tell Clinton.
Speaking, speaking of uh speaking of that, telling Clinton.
Let me find it here, uh ladies and gentlemen.
This is um, this is from the uh, I don't know what the uh it's a New Jersey website, it's a newspaper.
Maybe it's the uh the Bergen record, I'm not sure what.
Public worker unions plan massive rally in Trenton against Governor Chris Christie's budget cuts.
And this you know, all this uh talk here about tea parties being violent and all of that sort of stuff.
Now all of a sudden here we have a story where the embattled public worker unions plan a massive rally in Trenton next month to protest the governor's proposed budget cuts.
Somebody alert Clinton because we're gonna have a violent anti-government protest in New Jersey.
And it's gonna be taking place under the auspices of government union workers.
Who are what?
Democrats are certainly not tea partiers.
Somebody flash the president.
Send him a message real quickly on this.
And uh alert him.
Here's a uh let's see, this is the um government-run Reuters news agency, U.S. consumer sediment took a surprise negative turn in early April due to a persistently grim outlook on income and jobs, according to a private survey.
A slip in economic expectations to its lowest in a year, likely stemmed from Easter.
I made that up.
Uh from the volcano.
You're nice.
I made that up.
From consumers hearing negative information on government programs and a perception that the recovery is too slow according to So it's our fault.
The reason why consumers' moods have unexpectedly slipped is because Reuters, let me ask you a question.
What if the government programs are negative?
We're not lying about any of them here.
Government programs are you think the citizens are so stupid they don't know a bad thing when they see it that they have to be told?
Anyway, boy, they're dumping on us all day today.
Clinton dumping on us for a future terrorist incident that hasn't happened, blaming us for it.
And now these clowns at Reuters blaming us for your bad economic mood because we're telling you what the regime's plans are.
What is wrong with this sentence?
Obama tax policy will keep the Bush tax cuts for the middle class.
What's wrong with that sentence?
Yeah, they there weren't any tax cuts of the middle class with Bush.
His tax cuts were for the rich.
Remember that?
All those years it was Bush's tax cuts for the rich, but now all of a sudden they've discovered Bush tax cuts for the middle class along with Bush's tax cuts for the rich.
Because the Bush tax cuts are the middle class, the regime is gonna keep them.
So they've been lying to us all these years.
Uh there were Bush tax cuts for the middle class.
There had to be.
I mean, how the hell do you get to the point where 47% of them aren't paying any income tax?
We knew that.
Back to the phones.
Joe in St. Louis, you're next on the EIB network.
Hello, sir.
You know what, Rush?
I'm what you would call a man's man, okay?
All right.
And the first year, or maybe the second year that I was listening, you touched certainly snurly big in my checkbook.
Right out a check for 25 or 50,000.
And I gotta tell you, I almost cried then.
Okay.
I called Cerley a little while ago.
I said, how much I I was working on a job, I couldn't listen, I didn't tune in at the beginning.
He said 400 G's.
I said, you know, can I first off can I tell Rush how much I love him?
Because you know what?
If it was George Clooney or Rosie O'Donnell or Harry Reid, Bill Clinton giving used underwear, whoever it was, they'd be on every news show tonight talking about today, Harry Reed donated 400,000 of his own money to this.
George Clooney donated 400,000.
You're not going to hear one word, and you do this every year.
So I mean, you know, I know that you don't want to hear all that kind of stuff, and I know you don't want to hear how much people love you and how wonderful you are and all that stuff, because I've been listening to you since day one.
But I just got to tell you, I don't have any money.
But you know what?
I'm gonna find some money so that I can give money to leukemia, and I'm doing it for you.
Because that's how much I feel about you.
And you know, it's not just you.
It's what you stand for.
And it's what you make me want to be a better person.
We all are better people because we listen to you and we believe in the things that you say and the things you believe in.
And other than that, I just don't know what else I can say.
400,000.
It's just amazing.
And I love you for it, and I don't know anybody that's got cancer.
It's not because you're curing anybody for me.
I just think it's a wonderful thing.
Uh Joe, I don't know what to say.
Uh other than I don't ever remember Snerdley being in charge of my checkbook.
Well, there was some it was the first year to see it.
I'm pretty sure it was snurly.
Snell me, bring my checkbook in here.
Well, I don't know if it's not.
If you say it happened, it happened.
I'm not just I just I just I just uh I don't remember my checkbook ever being around somewhere where sternly can go get it.
But if you say it happened, it happened.
Certainly bring it.
No, that's probably a lot of things you go on that you don't know about, you know, but we don't keep that between me and Snerdley.
Well, uh all right.
Look, Joe, I I I can't thank you enough.
That's um No, I I thank you, Russia, and I mean it, and it's just a wonderful thing.
Like I said, you probably won't even hear anything on Fox News about it tonight.
And if it was anybody else, Sean Penn, any of these other people, it'd be oh, what a wonderful thing they did.
Look what they're doing.
They're donating their time, they're doing this.
He gave 10,000, you know, and it's it's like it's nothing, and I know you only say it once, usually during the show at the beginning of the show, and it's just, you know.
It's just a wonderful question.
Well, we don't have my my uh uh philosophies about this.
We don't put out a press release either.
Uh if they're not listening, they won't know it, and we don't tell them.
Uh we don't we don't tell anybody beyond the audience here.
We don't put out press releases for ourselves like those other people do.
I mean everybody's l everybody's listening, you know that.
Yeah.
Whether they want to admit it or not, they're listening.
That's true.
You're absolutely right again.
I was going to say something.
If Keith Olbermann or Rachel Maddow or the other one, Chris Matthews...
Well, that would get the beef.
They don't even make that much uh uh Joe.
We gotta be honest somebody else's money.
You know, earlier when you talk about, well, you know, Michael Jordan just don't want to sell shoes to Democrats.
I was thinking, well, if he did, they wouldn't sell any shoes, and the only way they tell them is if the government subsidized them so the Democrats could buy shoes.
He's on a roll.
I ought to just back out of here and let you take it to the commercial.
You got another three minutes on you.
If you let me say you the commercial, when you were talking about Hillary Waxman writing that bill, the thought of himself pleasuring himself as he sat there and wrote that bill was almost too much to bear.
The mental images that you concoct for these people are right on the money.
I can't I can't I can't dispute anything you've said so far.
Look, Joe, I I I really uh I I I thank you very much.
Everybody in the audience does.
Uh we we're floored here by um uh your comments, your perception.
Thanks so much.
Really.
Thank you.
We love you too, Joe.
Uh thanks, Rush.
You bet.
He's got a good point.
I do remember when the Clintons donated some used underwear to Goodwill, it made news.
It did.
You don't remember that, Don?
Oh, yeah, it was the early nineties.
Hillary cleaned out the Arkansas governor's mansion, and they sent some stuff over to Goodwill, and in there were some used underwear, and they got lauded for it.
Okay.
And they did took a deduction for it.
That's exactly right.
They took a deduction for the used underwear and all the other uh all the other clothes.
All right, here's let me give you the phone number uh to donate if you are so inclined.
Uh thousands of people have today, eight seven seven three seven nine eight eight eight eight, or online at rushlimbaugh.com.
And there are three premiums.
There's a one-size-fits-all t-shirt, there's a golf cap and a t-shirt, and then there's a stylish uh anti-moisture golf shirt, various sizes, from uh small up to double XL, uh that you can pick for three hundred and seventy dollars, the uh first one seventy, and then the middle one is a hundred dollars.
So uh we have the premiums as usual, but uh people doing this out of the uh the bigness and the and the goodness of their of their hearts because of all the recent progress the survivability rates are increasing uh dramatically here with uh all the research that's taking place,
and uh even with all the success, uh there are still hundreds of thousands of people this year who have or will have uh nine hundred thousand patients to be exact, fighting back against blood cancers right now.
And we devote a portion of the program once a year, one day a year, to this cause, and it is I don't I I don't know how to say it.
Uh it's not enough to say we're surprised.
It's not enough to say that we're grateful.
It's not enough to say that we're appreciative.
Uh you always come through and beat the previous year.
Even if you didn't come through and beat the previous year, doesn't matter.
Uh the end result is the same.
There's an amount of outpouring of love and compassion that all of you have on a moment's notice is literally awe-inspiring and overwhelming.
And all of us involved in this effort, thank you from the bottom of our sizable hearts.
Well, the uh California unemployment rate in March.
A new high 12.6%.
That's what going green does for you.
Well, I thought we turned a corner on unemployment too.
12.6%.
That's just a reported unemployment.
That also does not count the people out there who have given up and uh and are not uh not looking for work.
12.6 unemployment and uh uh uh consumers' moods uh down uh not happy.
That's because of us on the radio, uh telling the truth about the regime's plans.
From the Washington Post, just now, White House unveils a $50 million plan to boost Democrat support in the elections.
Amid fresh signs of Republican fundraising momentum, White House officials unveiled a $50 million plan to try to shore up Democrat majorities on Capitol Hill in advance of the November midterm elections, using a campaign theme of defending the middle class.
Yeah, somebody better defend them because they're under assault from the regime.
The very regime announcing a plan here to defend the middle class is the one attacking it.
How can you say that?
Well, the regime is attacking the private sector.
Where do you think the middle class works?
Or used to.
Obama signs $18 billion jobless benefits bill.
This is another stimulus.
They don't they don't dare call it stimulus anymore because the first one didn't work.
Just hours after Congress passed an $18 billion bill to restore unemployment benefits, Obama made it the law of the land.
Just hours after Obama orders same-sex hospital visits yesterday, signed a memorandum requiring hospitals to allow gays and lesbians to have nonfamily visitors and to grant their partners medical power of attorney.
The president ordered the Department of Health and Human Services to prohibit discrimination in hospital visitation.
An official said the new rule will affect any hospital that receives Medicare or Medicaid funding.
And there you have it.
This is how Obamacare works in a nutshell.
You against this rut?
No, no, no, no, no, no, don't misunderstand here, folks.
Uh what caught my eye here is he orders it and it is so.
Is that how is that is that is that yeah, it is how things happen.
That's how things are happening here in the country.
He waves the magic wand, he orders it, and it is so.
Jim in Flint, Michigan, as we go back to the phones, you're on open line Friday.
Hello, sir.
Yes, sir.
I pleasure to talk to you.
I've been a great fan for many years, as my son-in-law Jeff and Franken moved.
I've been in law enforcement for over 40 years, and I'd like to pose a question to you in regards to the uh criminal trials of the terrorist suspects in uh New York.
Uh it's my understanding that AUSA's federal prosecutors, and especially Eric Holder has considerable latitude in where he holds the trial in these circumstances.
Why in the world would he pick a choice like New York where any uh defense attorney that's worth their salt would immediately ask for a change of venue?
Um, the defense attorney will not ask for a change of venue.
Why do you think that based on three part pretrial publicity that might uh the point of the jury?
No, no.
The point is not acquittal.
The defense attorney taking a case is this is not about acquittal.
Because the answer to your second question is found in the first.
The reason they're doing it.
Let me let me lay it out for you And see if you can uh uh guess it yourself.
Here we have the mastermind and four henchmen of the deaths of three thousand Americans.
This mastermind has confessed.
He has asked to be executed.
We said no.
We're gonna bring him to New York if things don't change, and we're going to put him on trial that will take years.
We are going to pay 200 million dollars a year.
It's going to cost New York City 200 million dollars a year in security costs alone per year.
So they anticipate a multiple-year trial.
During this trial, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and his henchmen will have how many wonderful glorious opportunities to rip the shreds out of the United States of America and to explain that they were justified in killing 3,000 Americans because America is responsible for the genocide of who knows how many millions of people all over the world since our founding.
It will be the greatest opportunity the enemies of this country have ever had to spread venom and hate in our own courtrooms, bought and paid for by our own taxpayers because the Attorney General apparently believes the United States does need to be taught a lesson.
There's no other reason to do this.
This all this idea we're going to put them on trial uh and we're going to show the uh world about our our great justice system.
We're going to grant these non-citizens constitutional rights.
We're going to show the rest of the world just how wonderful we are.
Well, I uh Jim, you'll understand this.
Oh, yeah.
Wait a minute.
Both the pr both the president and Eric Holder have already prejudged the case, and they have said these defendants will be found guilty and they will be executed.
And I I agree with everything you've said, Rush, but from a defense perspective, if the change of venue is not requested, they are convicted.
Wouldn't that create an appealable issue on your side?
Oh, of course.
The whole thing's appealable from any number of grounds.
They don't have constitutional rights.
Oh, I agree a hundred percent.
They should never be tried in criminal court.
No, there's only one there's only one reason to sign an arms reduction treaty unverifiable with the Russians, and that is if you think the United States of America is the problem in the world.
There's only one reason to give these four terrorists that kind of a forum.
You must think it's important for their message to get out.
We're not showing off our beautiful system of justice here because it's already been compromised.
When the president, uh, don't worry about it.
We're gonna find them guilty.
They'll be executed.
Let him put him on the first royal and rocket and 15 when you hold that asteroid.
Okay, so a defense lawyer said, Well, you already got my client convicted and put to death here before the trial's even begun.
So it's not about an acquittal.
It may be, in fact, a lot of people say rush.
And you're asking about change of venue, Jim, because of New York.
Uh it's possible.
You think it's not possible to find 12 people in New York who think the United States deserved it?
You think they might not pluck some people from the village or from the Upper West Side who might have some sympathy with people who think we are an oppressor imperialistic nation?
It's not out of the realm of possibility.
We are learning that not every American loves his or her country.
Uh so uh it's it's a disaster.
It is a it is a disaster waiting to happen.
This this is a forum that they would never give to Wall Street bankers.
They would never give Wall Street bankers a forum like this.
Anyway, Jim, I'm glad you called.
I appreciate it.
We're getting down to the nitty-gritty here.
We uh the final uh moments here of our live program today, where we can uh pump the telephone number at you and the website for you to contribute and donate to our effort to cure the blood cancers via the Leukemia Lymphoma Society of America.
Telephone numbers 877-3798, or we have a very convenient online system at Rushlimbaugh.com and a reminder.
Regardless how you donate, nobody will know it.
Your data will be kept strictly confidential by the Leukemia Lymphoma Society.
Nobody will have access to it.
They do not sell the list.
Other charities will not get it.
Uh you remain the exclusive private uh your your list is exclusive private listing of the Leukemia Lymphoma Society.
And it's uh just something that I want you to realize.
We uh a lot of people are very uh reluctant, uh, especially online because they think they're gonna be inundated with solicitations from other charities or uh anybody else selling something will not be the case if you uh donate either way, either by phone at 877-379-8888 or at Rush Limbaugh.com.
We're gonna do it.
We're we are going to at some point we're gonna cure these blood cancers one at a time.
The progress that's being made is overwhelmingly positive and it's rapid.
We've gone from in these twenty years that we have been doing our curathon, we've gone from Model T type research to Bentley's and Rolls-Droyce's.
I would say Cadillac, but Obama owns that now you can't put them in the upper level.
Uh but nevertheless, the progress has just been astounding, and it's it's uh been breathtaking to watch here, as has the level of your commitment and contribution each and every year, exceeding that of the year before, regardless of the economic circumstances we all find ourselves in.
So once again, thank you.
877-379-8888 or online at Rush Limbaugh.com.
Flint, Michigan.
The guy was Jim, right?
Jim, there's one other reason for this trial that I left out, and it's also key.
By putting Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and his henchmen on trial, the hope of Eric Holder and Barack Obama is that the International Criminal Court will file charges of war crimes charges against Bush and Cheney for torture.
Uh that is uh another objective.
I just got an email at the uh subscriber email address, Rush Limbaugh.com.
Dear Rush, I wanted to donate what I could afford five dollars to your curaton.
When I tried to donate that amount online, I couldn't, because the minimum donation is ten dollars.
I'm sorry, Rush, I can barely afford the five dollar donation, so I guess I won't be donating this year.
Kyle is her name.
K, I am going to donate ten dollars for you in your name.
So, Pam, uh add $10 to my previous uh uh announced figure uh and make sure it's in the name of uh Kay Shile, S H E I L. She wants to participate and she will.
In fact, make it twenty.
Make it twenty.
All right, here's Greg in Fort Lauderdale.
Great to have you on the program.
Welcome.
Gadettos from down the street from your Rush.
Thank you, sir.
Uh I'm just I can't tell you how much I appreciate what you guys are doing.
Uh I I'm a ten-year leukemia survivor.
Uh got diagnosed with uh CML over ten years ago.
How old were you then?
Uh I was fifty.
Yeah.
Uh had no symptoms.
I was asymptomatic.
My dad had lung cancer, and we both went in for a blood test together.
And uh I I was in hospital two days later.
Wow.
My white blood cell count uh came out at over two hundred twenty-five thousand.
So they did the doctor put me straight in the hospital.
But it it's through research through programs like you're doing right now that are making a tremendous difference.
You know, you used the analogy of the Model T. You know, we're really into the beyond the space program with some of the stuff that Dr. Drucker and his team are doing with molecular structures, finding the enzymes that are causing these cells to mutate.
And uh I remember being on the original clinical trials for the Glevic program.
Wow.
And well, you have seen vast improvements then.
Oh, it's it's awesome.
You know, now you've got the the new medications, the super glevix and the two or three other ones that are out.
Uh and it's amazing to to see what this research can do.
You know, for for ten years I've been sitting there and you know, I've been as I say it's sometimes fat dumb and happy because I I I've been able to get this, and I I call it a cure.
Uh and so I recently got off the bench.
I've actually partnered with the Leukemia Lymphoma Society working with uh director market up in New York.
I'm doing uh it's kind of crazy, but I figure I'll I'll be sixty in a ten-year leukemia survivor.
I'm doing that Hocahey motorcycle challenge, riding from Key West to Alaska, 7,000 miles.
Whoa.
And uh but I'm doing it to raise funds for leukemia research.
For the same reason you're doing it.
You're making a positive difference.
And we can make a difference.
We're making great strides.
You just look at guys like Dr. Drucker and three or four of the other guys that are out at Portland and some of the other education facilities that are working on this leukemia research.
We can make a difference.
And well, you're you're you're walking uh evidence of it.
Oh, it every day.
Every day you get up, and and the more that I can do to share what I've been able to get accomplished through folks that have made a difference.
Because it, you know, you you talk about your twenty years ago when you first started, the funds that you helped raise and the awareness, more importantly, the awareness that you brought to this disease, whether it's childhood leukemia or or the leukemia that strikes several people.
You know, this is supposed to be a rare form, the CML.
But there's a lot of people that have it.
And you got you know so many different I know.
You know, I I know it's a childhood disease.
I'm always stunned at the number of seasoned citizens I I I hear contracting the disease.
And even even middle-aged.
It's uh it doesn't discriminate against uh against anyone.
Look, I I I appreciate very much uh your call and and congratulations, Greg.
Continue good luck.
Quickly, Diane and Camden Park, or Camden, Arkansas, I'm sorry.
Welcome to the program.
Hello, Russ.
I'm a black conservative in Tea Party or sick of hearing that I'm a major a minority.
I wake up a I'm thirteen percent of the U.S. population.
I wake up a minority, I go to bed a minority.
That's not gonna change.
And furthermore, we lost our status as top minority because of illegal immigration.
In a hundred years, Latins and whites will be the majority.
We'll be a super minority.
So if you they don't like that we're a minority now, they ain't say nothing yet, it's gonna get worse.
All right.
