Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 Podcast.
Don't doubt me.
Just over a month ago.
Back on March 22nd, shortly after Obamacare Sunday, I said the next big push is going to be immigration.
And lo and behold, look what's happened.
They have blown off cap and trade.
They've blown off um what's the other thing?
Cap and trade and one other thing to get to immigration.
And the reason they're doing this is votes in November.
Pure and simple.
And it's caused Lindsay Gramnesty of all people to finally bail out on them on their cap and trade bill because he now understands what a bunch of double crossers the Democrats are.
It's it's fascinating to watch our elected leaders learn months after we all figure it out that the people they're working with on the other side are double crossers.
Great to have you here, folks.
How are you?
Telephone number 800-282-2882.
If you want to be on the uh Rush Limbaugh program, email address, L Rushball at EIBNet.com.
Before we get to that, CNN Money.com today.
Duh.
We knew this.
We knew when it was announced that it wasn't going to help.
The recovery is picking up steam as employers boost payrolls, but economists think the government stimulus package in Jobsville had little to do with a rebound, according to a survey released on Monday.
This the National Association for Business Economics.
The index that measures employment showed job growth for the first time in two years, but a majority of respondents felt the fiscal stimulus had no impact.
Whatsoever.
Told you, yeah, yeah.
We had the story last week, ladies and gentlemen.
That the shutdown of the airspace over in Europe was totally unnecessary because the people that ordered the shutdown, the UK Met office used a bunch of flawed computer models.
Satellite data has now indicated that this ash cloud was not covering the whole country of Britain, and they did not need to shut down all those airlines for all those days and strand all those people.
Remember, I asked a question, look at how disoriented we get when airplanes don't fly.
And I guess people said, but Rush, you know, it's one thing if if airplanes don't fly your own country, you get in a car and drive home, but if you're from another country and the airplanes don't fly, you just can't drive across the ocean.
That wasn't my point.
My point is we have the environmentalist wackos trying to get rid of airplanes, and make no mistake about it.
If they could, they would.
That's what this little test was all about.
The first moment these bunchy environmentalist nutcases at the UK met office, the first chance they had to shut down the airspace, they did it.
On global warming grounds, it turns out that the ash cloud did not exist.
And it turned out that it wasn't as dangerous and damning.
This is all the UK Daily Mail Online, a story by Sean Polder.
Britain's airspace was closed under false pretenses, satellite images revealing there was no doomsday volcanic ash cloud over the entire country.
Skies fell quiet for six days, leaving as many as half a million Britons stranded overseas and costing airlines hundreds of millions of pounds.
They closed off these flights.
They they canceled them on the basis of computer models, not even satellite photos.
And these are the same people forecasting global warming 50 and 75 years out based on computer models.
And here's a computer model based on the next two or three days in the future, it was totally flawed.
However, new evidence shows there was no all-encompassing cloud, and where the dust was present, it was often so thin that it posed no risk whatsoever.
The satellite images demonstrate the skies were largely clear, which will not surprise the millions who enjoyed the fine hot weather during the flight ban.
So this whole thing was a panic created by a bunch of probably A students.
You know, A students should never be allowed to do anything.
They're the egghead creep elites.
And the here so here are these guys, well, P.J. Rourke has a pretty good column of the A students.
And I I read it last night.
Getting ready for the broadcast today.
All the people Obama's team are A students, and you don't want, you know, you the C students, the D students, who are you want running companies running things.
Uh A and B students, let them teach it.
Get them out of get them out of everybody's way.
At any rate, the whole thing was a scam.
The whole thing was a scam, and make no mistake, it was brought about by a political bias, a political prejudice, and that is that this kind of stuff was damaging, it was going to kill people.
And they also wanted an opportunity to point out how much cleaner and safer the world was when all these air flights, airplane flights were uh were canceled.
So it was everything involving global warming, everything about climate change, make no mistake, is a hoax.
All right, I want to take you back to this program March 22nd.
Listen to me nail it.
The next big push, almost immediately, and they will use whatever unconstitutional measure they have to to get it done, will be amnesty.
The next big push will be amnesty for as many millions of illegal immigrants who are here.
Obama is going to need their votes in 2012.
The Democrats are gonna need their votes at every election from this day forward.
If down the road we have elections, and I'm not joking.
The Constitution has just been ripped to shreds.
So why is anything in it safe?
And I want you to hear how Obama's gonna sell this.
I want you to hear how Obama's gonna run around the country in these rallies.
Here's what he's going to say.
There are some people who don't like your skin color, who don't think you should be American.
He has come to divide.
He has come to conquer.
Is there anybody who now doubts what I meant when I said I hope he fails?
Last Friday on organizing for America's YouTube channel, the DNC released this video of President Obama rallying Democrats for the 2010 campaign.
They see these elections as a chance to put their allies back in power and to undo all that we've accomplished.
So this year, I need your help once more.
It will be up to each of you to make sure that the young people, African Americans, Latinos, and women who powered our victory in 2008, stand together once again.
And the accompanying news story got two of them here, one of them from the uh Washington Post, President Obama declaring his stake in the November midterm elections as the party prepares to announce an ambitious strategy to appeal to independent voters in its quest to maintain control of Congress.
And so the Obama and Democrats appeal to new voters in midterm.
Who are the new voters?
Who are the new voters, folks?
Didn't he get the youth vote?
Didn't he get the black vote?
Didn't he get the legal Latino vote?
Didn't he get the female vote?
Okay, so who are these uh new voters in the midterms?
Who are they?
Why all of a sudden announce an immigration plan that doesn't exist?
There is no immigration bill that has been written.
This is all about saving Harry Reed's bacon.
Large Hispanic population in Nevada, it's all about saving the Democrats.
That's the new voters.
This is a targeted push at Latino voters, both uh legal and illegal.
The politico handling this today.
Obama seeks to reconnect young people, African Americans, Latinos, and women for 2010.
So playing the race card.
L. Rushbaugh told you back on March 22nd is exactly what was going to happen.
It has happened.
Here's more from the Obama video.
It will be up to each of you to keep our nation moving forward, to keep working to fix Washington, to keep growing our economy, and to keep building a fairer, stronger, and more just America.
If you help us do that, if you help us make sure that first-time voters in 2008 make their voices heard again in November.
And together we will deliver on the promise of change and hope and prosperity for generations to come.
There's a lot of problems, however.
We now have CBO news again, knowing what we already knew.
Health care costs are going to skyrocket.
Premiums are going to skyrocket.
The CBO, weeks after it signed into law, gives us the dirty details.
There are a bunch of Democrats running for re-election, members of the House, who all are on record as saying the reason they voted for health care is because it will reduce costs and lower premiums.
And every damn one of them now can be accused of being wrong, uninformed, or at worst, lying to their constituents about it.
Independence, you know, Obama wants to desperately hold on to the independents that voted for him in uh in 2008.
It is independents who have fled the Democrat Party and who are resulting in these terrible polls that the Democrats have in the uh uh congressional ballot and in specific races, and on whether or not Obama's policies are viewed favorably or unfavorably.
I mean, they're tanking.
Democrats are tanking everywhere out there.
So now it's time for the for the big push.
I also said, October 12th of 2009.
This is the uh profile piece of Jamie Gangell of NBC did on me for the Today Show.
She said, uh, beyond politics, were you moved in any way to see an African American elected president?
Yeah, but I got over it very quickly.
I mean, he's president of the United States.
His skin color doesn't matter to me.
His policies are what matter.
The idea that we've uh had a very historic thing was wonderful when it happened.
Absolutely.
But I'll be honest with you, I predicted to you it was going to exacerbate racial problems, and it has.
Any criticism of President Obama is going to be said to be oriented in racism.
And if you don't like his health care bill, it's racist.
And I opposed when Clinton and Hillary were trying to do it, and they aren't black.
And it's all about ideas.
And last Thursday on this program, I said this.
Let's spend some time on this next week.
The states will be the last line of defense against this power grab of the regime.
Absolutely, in Arizona showing exactly how this is going to happen.
And now Al Sharpton is taking from the streets to the streets and back to the streets.
Streets to the streets and back to the streets.
He's going to round a bunch of freedom writers to go into Arizona.
Obama dumping on the state of Arizona, dumping on the states.
Here is Obama last Friday morning in Washington, the White House Rose Garden, a naturalization ceremony for active duty service members.
Efforts in Arizona, which threatened to undermine basic notions of fairness that we cherish as Americans, as well as the trust between police and their communities that is so crucial to keeping us safe.
In fact, I've instructed members of my administration to closely monitor the situation and examine the civil rights and other implications of this legislation.
But if we continue to fail to act at a federal level, we will continue to see misguided efforts opening up around the country.
Senator Lindsey Grahamsty has decided to walk away from Senate talks on climate change and energy legislation, cap and trade, at least for now.
And this has prompted the measures remaining architects to scuttle today's plan unveiling the bill.
Lindsey Grahamsty is upset over Democrat plans to take up immigration legislation this year.
He had no idea this was coming.
Had he listened to me, he would have known.
He thought they were going to move forward on cap and trade and climate change and so forth.
And the Democrats realize they're losing independence left and right, that a lot of their important leaders are vulnerable.
And so it's time now for a political push.
And folks, make no mistake, there's no way they're going to get an immigration bill passed and signed into law before November.
The Democrat Party wants no part of it either.
The strategy here is to just campaign for it.
Just to show that these Latinos, independents, you are for it.
And accuse the Republicans of racism.
Accused exactly what I said.
Some people, some people, I don't like color your skin.
They don't want you to be American.
Don't think you are.
That's what's coming.
The uh the initial steps of this uh have have been made.
Uh the pathway has been laid, and it's uh it's all about helping Dingy Harry in Nevada and a number of other Democrats and Obama as well, holding on to his Democrat majority in November, because if he loses the Democrat majority in the House, if he loses it in the Senate or both, then his agenda comes to a screeching halt compared to where he is now.
So he is a Grahamnesty has accused the Democrat leaders of pushing forward immigration haphazardly, calls it an election year political gambit.
Byron York, the uh the Washington, D.C. examiner, in a piece why Lindsey Grahamnesty balked, and he asked the question can Democrats win by losing on climate and immigration.
Meaning, can they win at the ballot box by acting like they really want all this?
And have it not happened because a Republican walked away.
A Republican walked away from cap and trade.
A Republican walked away from clean air, Lindsey Graham.
A Republican walked away from clean water.
A Republican walked away from saving the planet.
But we, the Democrats, want to do all that.
Save the planet, save the air, save the drinking water, save the animal.
A Republican walked away.
We're getting no help on immigration.
Republicans don't want you to be Americans because you are a person of color.
This is all coming.
Predicted it to you.
The question is, do they have the credibility to pull this off?
Can they recapture the magic that Obama had with his cult-like following in the 08 presidential campaign?
Can they put that together the next three or four months here for the uh for the 2010 midterms?
And I would have to say they can't.
The blooms off the rose.
Uh there is no more magic.
All there is now is the unique perception of a slimy community agitator and organizer who does not win policy debates.
He gets what he wants in ways that Americans know this is not how things happen in America.
The Obama way is not how things happen.
It's not how things get done here.
And that's why Rasmussen poll the number of people who want repeal a health care bill all-time high today.
The number of people who oppose it not dwindling at all.
The Obama agenda is not supported.
So it's gonna is going to require continued foggery from the uh from the Oval Office.
And what's happening now with this Goldman Sachs business?
Uh and the emails.
You know, remember when the emails came out from the climate research unit at uh at Hadley over at University of East Anglia, and everybody said, Who leaked these?
Who leaked these emails?
It doesn't matter what the emails say.
Doesn't matter.
We gotta find out who leaked them.
Now, Carl Levin has leaked some Goldman Sachs emails talking about how they were winning and losing and playing the playing the system.
Uh and Juan Williams on Fox yesterday said, it doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter who leaked the memos.
What matters is what they say.
Didn't matter what the climate change memos with that hoax.
So, folks, we just now set the table here.
There's lots going on on the program today.
Plus, your phone calls part of the mix.
Sit tight.
We're coming right back and we'll be back before you even know it.
I have a couple questions.
Uh, ladies and gentlemen, as I always do, after listening to our young president speak.
So Obama seeks to reconnect with young people, with African Americans, with Latinos, and with women.
Why does Obama not seek to reconnect with white people?
Why does Obama not seek to specify older white people?
Why does Obama say he doesn't want to reach out to older white males?
Why does Obama only say young people, African Americans, Latinos, and women?
Why does why doesn't he say that he wants to reach out to white women?
Well, it's just a question.
Now listen to this soundbite again, and you tell me if this isn't Barack Obama himself engaging in anti-government rhetoric by criticizing Arizona.
Efforts in Arizona, which threaten to undermine basic notions of fairness that we cherish as Americans, as well as the trust between police and their communities that is so crucial to keeping us safe.
In fact, I've instructed members of my administration to closely monitor the situation and examine the civil rights and other implications of this legislation.
But if we continue to fail to act at a federal level, we will continue to see misguided efforts opening up around the country.
Okay, 70% of Arizonians are misguided, the Arizona governor is misguided, the Arizona legislature is misguided, uh, and Arizona threatens to undermine basic notions of fairness that we cherish as Americans.
Why, why is that not anti-government rhetoric?
Why is that not dangerous rhetoric?
Why that the president of the United States started a little brush fire out there in Arizona, it sounds like to me.
These people engaging in violence and hate rhetoric against the duly elected government of Arizona somehow backbone of America, even though they're not American.
Al Sharpton can go down there and shill for some new victims.
Somebody should tell Sharpton that he's not Hispanic.
Somebody ought to tell Sharpton that many African Americans are opposed to amnesty, which Sharpton has even admitted himself.
We got the audio coming up on this.
Sharpton even admits that a lot of African Americans oppose amnesty.
Why are they not called racists?
Why are African Americans who oppose amnesty not called racists?
And what's because they're looking out for their jobs?
That's exactly why they oppose it.
That's exactly why they oppose amnesty.
They're looking out for their jobs.
I guess that makes them racist.
No, it doesn't make them racist.
They can't be racist.
Do you see how this race conversation permeates everything now?
And guess who invites it?
The regime.
They enjoy the tumult.
They feed off the chaos.
And what's misguided about the Arizona effort in the first place?
What's misguided about enforcing a law?
How in the world are there civil rights violations?
We're not talking about United States citizens.
Nothing's real.
Four corners of deceit.
Nothing is real.
The administration can't tell us the truth about anything.
It was actually the Medicare actuary who informed Health and Human Services that the cost overruns for Obamacare were what they are, and it was Sibelius and HHS which suppressed that news until now, after the bill had been signed.
I don't know how Arizona violates any trust.
What kind of trust is there between lawmakers, lawbreakers, I should say, and the police?
It's a scary situation to me.
Byron York writing in the DC Examiner now, Harry Reed says he would like to have an immigration bill in three weeks.
It's a laughable idea, except for the fact that Reed's becoming desperate and might do anything to improve his chances for re-election.
But even if the Democrats can cobble together some sort of legislation in the next few weeks, they can forget about having the sort of Republican support that existed in 2007.
The watered down border security measures in that bill, a virtual fence, for example, have been dumped.
Temporary guest worker measures are gone too.
There's no way many Republicans go along with a new Democrat measure.
Even McCain says that he now gets the message, since he's campaigning for reelection, and that the U.S. should secure the border first.
Nevertheless, it appears the Democrats' cynical political ploy will go forward.
Bye bye cap and trade.
Bye-bye climate change bill, and let's just make everybody think all we care about now is amnesty and immigration.
Byron York points out this is a very high-risk strategy gamble for Dingy Harry and his party.
Maybe it'll work, but if it doesn't, it could mean a Republican victory in November that's even larger than Republican optimists are predicting.
Here is the Reverend Sharpton press conference yesterday in New York City.
We will bring freedom walkers to Arizona, just like freedom riders went to the deep south 50 years ago.
But we cannot sit by and allow people to be arbitrarily and unilaterally picked off as suspects because of the color of their skin.
Dare you have it?
The race industry loves this.
They are eating this up.
They just can't believe the good luck.
Well, let's go back.
Grab Audio Soundbite 32.
Last Wednesday on his syndicated radio show on two radio stations.
The Reverend Sharpton said this about the new immigration law in Arizona.
I think it is racial profiling.
I think it undermines the Constitution.
But there are many, including many in our community.
This is naughty immigrants are taking our jobs.
They're milking our Economy.
And Reverend, I don't agree with you on that.
I have a lot of people in even Nash Action Network.
Say to me, Revan, I'm with you on a lot of things.
I'm not with you on this.
So uh the Reverend Sharpton admits that he's going to find some freedom walkers out there that might not come from his own radio audience because the African Americans in his radio audience oppose amnesty.
Now notice that they're not called racists.
Notice the Reverend Sharpton does not call members of his own National Action Network racists for opposing amnesty.
No, no, they oppose it legitimately.
They oppose it because they're losing their jobs.
They want jobs, and they're afraid they're going to lose their jobs to illegals via amnesty.
So well, the other people think the same thing, certainly, but but if they're not, if they're not African American or Latino, they're called racists.
Now I I think this is quite uh quite and remember here something too.
As we go down the road on this thing, the Republicans can't stop amnesty just like well, maybe with Scott Brown.
I mean, it's it's a it's a it's it's a toss-up there.
Uh but if they have to, the go reconciliation, reconciliation route.
They will they will do that.
Thuggery.
Who cares what the Constitution says, who cares what uh legislative tradition says.
Uh so Sharpton apparently is willing to go against the community.
Uh if well why?
What what's his motivation here?
Well, I know he's now Obama's man in the streets.
And there have been stories about that recently.
So, okay, freedom walkers.
So basically, here's here's here's how to describe uh the path of the Reverend Sharpton.
From the streets to the suites, and back to the streets to talk about sheets.
We're simply reliving the days of Bull Connor.
Except today, the Arizona governor is Bull Connor.
They're recycling it all, and they've got the first African American president leading the way, exactly as I, your host, predicted.
Well, even before the uh immaculation.
Here's the Los Angeles Times.
Arizona's immigration law may spur a showdown.
In this story, it says that Obama will examine the civil rights affected by this law.
Obama signaled a legal showdown might be possible.
His administration would examine the civil rights and other implications of the law.
The law's opponents were highly skeptical it could be enforced without police singling out Latinos.
One provision of the law prevents police from using race solely to form a suspicion about someone's legality, but the law does not prevent race from being a factor.
Uh like affirmative action.
Like affirmative action, my friends?
Like to jab it in there.
So here we have all of the panic.
All of it.
Listen, listen to our good buddy David Brooks, who is just practically near tears over all this.
He was on Meet the Press yesterday, and uh David Gregory said immigration, now a front burner issue.
Now, what Brooks should have said is yeah, and Rush Limbaugh predicted it would be just a month ago.
But he didn't say that.
Here's what he said.
This spoil in Arizona is an invitation to abuse.
You're gonna have the government making decisions on the basis of race.
And at what level are they making these decisions?
At the cop level, in the worst possible circumstances, when people are angry, it's an invitation to sort of racial profiling and abuse.
So I think it's terrible.
But the worst effect is happening back here, because now we have the Democrats promising to have a comprehensive immigration bill before any of the preparatory work has been done, pushing aside a lot of other stuff like cap and trade and energy.
And why are they doing it?
For purely political reasons, because a lot of Democrats, including Harry Reid, who's trying to get re-elected in Nevada, need to really fire up Latino voters to get them to come out to the polls.
Right.
So um Brooks gets it.
He gets it, but he doesn't understand why he gets it.
He now he well, there he is, he's on record.
Purely political considerations, which is all anybody in the Democrat Party is doing these days.
He's I know he's slamming the police as being racist, but that's you have to do that if you're a if you're a Washington, D.C. centrist or uh a moderate, you have to always accept the premise of the left.
You can't confront them on an issue of right and wrong for being thought of as racist or intolerant, so you have to go along with that premise.
But then you get into the politics of it, say, hey, why are they doing this?
Because see, the bottom line, Brooks really wants this bill.
Brooks and the boys want an amnesty bill down the road, and they he's upset because the Democrats are going about it in a way that makes it appear as if they don't really want to get it.
They just want to use the effort to get Latino voters.
So Lindsey Grahamnesty pulls out Thomas Friedman, who I should tell you, by the way, married into one of the most wealthy real estate families in this country, Thomas Friedman, who's on a kick now to make everybody go green, reduce their carbon footprint and all Thomas Friedman lives in a 12,000 square foot home near Maryland.
Giant pool out there.
Who knows how many car garages he's got?
Yeah, it's okay for him.
It's okay for him.
Here's Thomas Friedman, also on this of Slay the Nation.
Bob Schiefer said, Tom Friedman, I want to ask you about this business now that the administration has decided to postpone bringing up the climate bill.
Uh I know you're right a lot about that.
What do you make of what's going on here?
This is a disaster, Bob.
This is a travesty.
Bob, right now in Beijing.
They're high-fiving each other.
Oh, yeah, baby.
This means the Americans are going to be paralyzed on green tech.
You're not even going to need an immigration bill, Bob.
They're worried that Harry Reed is going to lose in Nevada, where you have a big Hispanic vote.
Hispanics are very concerned about an immigration bill that will bring some legality to illegal immigrants here.
Barbara Boxers vulnerable in California.
What is he saying here?
The Chicoms are worried about Harry Reed.
Well, no, whoa, that's crock.
The Chinese aren't worried about green jobs.
The Chinese are smart enough to know there aren't any such things as green jobs.
The Chicoms are very content for people like useful idiots like Friedman to push the notion that there are green jobs.
Let our government get bogged down.
Let our country get bogged down all these green.
Who, the ChaiCom's making the solar panels?
Fine, fine.
Do they work?
Do they make a hell of a bit of a difference?
No, the Chicoms are selling us the tools of our own demise.
The ChaiComs are selling us the tools of our own.
The minute we start pulling back on carbon production, the minute we start reducing our energy front front is the day our economic growth stops.
ChaiComs are more than happy to fulfill this.
And they got useful idiots like Friedman writing about it.
So the Chicoms, uh think they're going to get the green market cornered and have every market cornered before this guy's through.
And and uh Obama, I mean, and now we're told that the Chicom's also worried that Harry Reed might lose, and Barbara Botoxers in problem.
Uh out in uh uh yes, snurdly Botox or Barbara Botox are in problem, in trouble out in California.
The Chicoms are worried about this.
So he's really steamed here.
Uh and it's you know, I I kind of enjoy it though, hearing all of these liberals in in disarray.
Uh Schefer then said, well, look, uh, Larry Summers uh says they can do both.
First of all, good luck.
We have an energy senate bill.
There is no immigration bill anywhere.
This is about politics on both sides.
Okay?
Lindsey Graham, shame on the Republican Party.
There's one Republican for advancing green energy in this country, one Republican senator dare step out, so he's completely isolated, and the Democrats are worried about Harry Reid.
Have a nice day.
And the Chaicoms are worried about Harry Reid.
Uh stop and think of this.
Stop and think of this.
Mr. Friedman, this is the way you and Brooks and the rest of you guys ought to look at this.
Lindsey Grahamnesty.
Lindsey Grahamnesty.
Who?
In the big scheme, who?
Lindsey Graham.
One Republican.
Out of 41 of them, one Republican, Boltz, and a piece of legislation is dead in a body that has 59 Democrats.
One Republican, Boltz, one Republican can cause all this chaos.
And see, here's the problem for Lindsey Grahamnesty.
He's going to be blamed as being as Republicans hate clean air, clean water, uh, green tech, new jobs, all that stuff.
It ain't gonna fly.
It'll fly with the usual 30% that brain-dead freeloaders, but it's not gonna fly as the American people become more informed and more educated, understand exactly what now we are all up against with this regime.
We'll be back.
If you watch the uh National Football League draft this past weekend, you did not see any of the Hillsdale College football seniors being drafted by any pro team.
But suppose for a second that the Senate and House had a draft rather than elections.
How many seniors from Hillsdale would be picked in the first round of that draft?
Trust me on this, don't doubt me, it would be quite a few.
Hillsdale College turns out some of the most determined, the best prepared, well-reasoned students in the nation.
And with the best understanding of the principles this nation was founded on, including a working knowledge of the Constitution.
Now, for many of you, it may be too late to change your life direction and enroll at Hillsdale, but anticipating that, Hillsdale has found ways to reach out to you anyway so that you can benefit from what goes on there.
One of the ways is their free monthly speech digest called Imprimus.
Every month, Hillsdale College sponsors a well-spoken conservative speaker.
I have been featured a couple of times, and then captures that speech in the publication in Primus and delivers it to your home.
Ill Freebo, no strings attached.
1.7 million Americans receive it monthly.
It's free.
Your name doesn't get sold to anybody or is not used for solicitations.
So while it's fresh in your mind, go online, sign to get your own copy of Imprimus.
Use this website, Rush4Hillsdale.com.
You can call them to 1866 Hillsdale.
Now they do have, I wasn't joking, Hillsdale does have a varsity football team.
And they finished a very respectable 10 to 3, 10 and 3 this year.
They just don't get players drafted in the NFL.
But they are a great, great institution.
You may not be able to go there, but you can still allow them to reach out to you within Primus.
It's well worth it.
Here's Jamet in Phoenix as we start on the phones.
Great to have you here.
Hey, Rush.
Hey, I am the uh Rep uh Republican Congress challenger against liberal Ed Pastor, and I had the great privilege on Saturday of having a town hall here in Phoenix with Hispanic Americans.
And it was so surprising.
There was a little apprehension.
I didn't know what I'd be walking into with all the national attention that's been given to the new Arizona law as having the potential to violate civil rights.
But we took it to the people, and I've got news for Obama and Reverend Al.
70% of Arizona voters support this law, and that number includes 51% of Arizona Democrats, so they need to wake up.
But the discussions included some some really heated things at times, but cooler heads prevailed in the end.
And the vast agreement was that border security is needed here in Arizona.
It's been needed for a long time, and the federal government is failing us miserably.
Exactly.
I mean, you even even Senator McCain is saying so.
Even Senator McCain is wanting 3,000 National Guard troops.
You know, guess who else wants National Guard troops?
Chicago.
There are there.
I have a list of recent crimes in Chicago, our president's quasi hometown, that prints out the five pages.
They want the National Guard in the president's quasi hometown to help suppress the crime effort there.
So we want the National Guard on the border.
And don't forget Obama wants his own domestic police force that rivals U.S. military.
Do I believe McCain?
Being asked if I think McCain is sincere.
I don't know.
I mean, it's you would hope so.
It would you would really hope so, but it is election season.
And his position on immigration is generally not as tough.
In fact, it's generally nowhere near what his position is now.
But you know, things are thinking changed.
I mean, ranchers are getting shot on their own property in Arizona.
It is you you have 70% of the people of Arizona supporting this.
51% of Democrats.
And this, you know, throwing around these accusations of civil rights violations is is just a uh it is uh it's a tactic, and it's its intent is to subordinate U.S. law to feelings.
Its intent is to subordinate our Constitution and our statute law uh to a liberal agenda that seeks to overturn our constitutional founding and the rule of law as we know it today.
Look at this.
This is from the uh Chicago Sun-Times.
Such a long list of real true violence in Obama's hometown.
It just never I can't here, folks, it's five pages of this.
Every every crime in the in the in the recent past.
Three dead, several injured from weekend violence.
You know, you might think that Clinton and Obama be worried enough to address this violence, but instead, Obama and Clinton are out there addressing violence that has not taken place and blaming me and the Tea Party people for causing it.
Yet real violence, real murder going on in his own hometown, and he's worried about civil rights violations down in Arizona.
You know, we're told that Obama likes monuments to himself.
Uh health care reform.
A monument to Obama.
Well, you go to Chicago this past weekend, that list of crimes for this past weekend.
