	Boy, oh boy, oh boy, but I'm watching the uh I'm watching government controlled media out here.
	They are they are on this Times Square bomb that was discovered.
	If they can't hang this on a on a redneck teabagger, they're gonna hang this on the SUV.
	You know, every story mentions it's an SUV.
	Why is that?
	And I've seen the video of this guy changing his shirt, this white male in his 40s looking furtive.
	He doesn't look furtive to me.
	He's standing right out in the middle of the street, changing the shirt.
	It's kind of a warm day.
	Takes a shirt off.
	There's a shirt underneath.
	He didn't dart furtively into Schubert Alley and take off the shirt in there.
	Did it right in front of everybody?
	Oh, they are hoping, folks, they are hoping they can they can they can hang this on the teabagger.
	I say that with all affection.
	Greetings and welcome.
	Rushlin bought 800 282-2882.
	The email address is L Rushmore at EIBNet.com.
	A lot of people are asking me what I uh what I think of the iPad.
	You know, because I I was so distracted here Friday, I couldn't wait to get home and start playing with a thing.
	And I'll tell you what I did.
	I got home at about 45 minutes after the program.
	It took me an hour and a half to sync it up because I it's just like an iPhone.
	I connected it to my uh master computer, and I synced everything on that computer via iTunes and I wanted on the iPad.
	And there were a lot of photos, and there were a lot of videos, and a lot of things that took some time.
	It was it's about an hour and a half, and I'm sitting there saying, why did I have to do this first?
	I could have played with the damn thing before I think it now.
	Now it's another hour and a half.
	I can't do anything with it while it's sitting there and I don't want the air up to sink.
	So I tried to occupy myself for an hour and a half by finding videos of the thing on the Apple website, see how it operates.
	Finally.
	There were a bunch of things I wanted to uh apps I wanted to get with it after I got it all synced up and was using it, and I've got a Kindle, so I wanted to get the Kindle app because all my books that I bought on Kindle automatically downloaded to the iPad without buying them again.
	And the Apple has its own uh e-book application called iBook.
	They don't have nearly as many books there, but they're getting there.
	Uh so I have both those apps.
	I read three novels over the weekend.
	It just it's fascinating.
	Uh the it's you will not the the first thing that struck me here was how fast it is.
	This thing, Wi-Fi loads web pages two to three times faster than the iPhone, simply because it's a bigger chip and a more powerful battery.
	The battery's 10 hours, 10 to 11 hours, was that's the second thing I noticed.
	Then the display, the size, I just loved it.
	I I was immersed with the thing uh uh all weekend.
	I'd I've got it sitting over there.
	I'm still kind of waiting for this show to end so I can go back.
	No, I'm just kidding.
	Just kidding.
	But it was uh great, the 3G, I turned it on.
	I mean, that's I got one problem with it.
	There's just one problem with it, and it doesn't happen on the iPhone.
	It's Wi-Fi.
	When I go outside, where my living room is, the three feet outside, sit there at a table on a patio.
	I lose Wi-Fi.
	The iPhone does not.
	So I walk back inside, three feet inside, and I get a full Wi-Fi signal.
	And I don't know what that's about.
	My neighbor who has one has the same problem.
	So I don't know what that, but I have 3G, so I just fired up the 3G and I was able to uh use it out there.
	I don't know if anybody else has experienced that because I haven't spent a lot of time on these forums and vlogs of people who have these things.
	But that's the only thing I noticed about it that I didn't like.
	Everything else about it.
	Uh there's oh, second thing.
	When they enable printing from this thing, I will no longer need a laptop.
	And this thing only weighs four pounds.
	It's it's light as hell, versus, you know, my my 17-inch laptop is a that's a big thing to lug around.
	Uh and I'm told that they're gonna enable printing on the iPhone software upgrade 4.0 in June, which will end up on the iPads in September, but I'm not having confirmed that it's gonna that there's some third-party printing operations apps, but they don't work uh very well, the formatting and so forth.
	So just like cut and paste, cut copy paste took a long time to get to the iPhone printing.
	I'm sure at some point it'll it'll get there.
	Uh but I wouldn't look, I wouldn't look for them to ever put a phone in this thing, it just cannibalize the iPhone.
	But you're all you are gonna be able to get uh voiceover IP.
	Like true phone or uh Skype, make phone calls that way.
	It has a microphone.
	It doesn't have a camera, but it will, I guarantee you.
	This is the beta hardware unit.
	In a year, they'll come out with a with a camera on the thing, front facing and be able to take pictures.
	They just that's I'm sure it's they're probably testing that prototype now, hoping some guy doesn't leave it in a bar.
	Uh for eventually for Gizmoto to come up with it.
	But that's my review.
	It's I showed up all the staff here today, and they were fascinated with it.
	It's a great display.
	It is lickety split fast.
	It when you change the end the uh orientation from landscaped to vertical, it's instant.
	The iPhone sometimes takes a while to catch up with the movement of the phone sideways.
	This is instant.
	You can lock it too so that uh it doesn't switch when you move the thing around.
	Typing on it is easy.
	I have no I've never had a problem with a virtual keyboard.
	You know, a bunch of uh whiners, people professionally complain about things, uh, whine about the iPhone keyboard.
	I have never had a problem with it, don't mind.
	Uh, but this keyboard's bigger, a little bit done.
	What do you mean I don't have fat fingers?
	That's not a that's that's not that's not an excuse.
	Fat fingers.
	Besides, you can go landscape now with a keyboard and the iPhone doesn't matter if you have fat fingers.
	Uh not an excuse as far as I'm concerned.
	Sixty-four.
	Sixty-four gigs, but that's the that's the memory.
	That's that's top of the line right now.
	That's a lot.
	So I've got a great bunch of weather apps, uh, some games.
	Uh well, some things I shouldn't say what I've got, but security systems.
	I can arm them remotely from this thing wherever I happen to be.
	Uh here at home or the office, the car.
	It's it's uh it's an amazing thing.
	Now let me get back to some stuff here before we uh um get oh, oh, I just got a flash here.
	Apple confirms iPad Wi-Fi problems, and they've got a post, try these fixes.
	Uh users are speculating the weak signal strength may be caused by poor placement of the Wi-Fi antenna.
	Others uh ponder if the problems are the symptoms of a software issue.
	I think it's software.
	I think they're gonna fix it in a software upgrade uh or update, because it's no reason for this.
	In fact, when I go outside, the signal's still full.
	When I use it, when it downloads an email or goes to the internet, that's when it dies.
	So it's not an antenna.
	I mean, it's picking up the signal out there.
	There's something in there.
	Uh, and I don't know what has to do with going outside.
	Um atmospherics has anything to do with it, but they'll get it fixed.
	I'm glad to find that it's not something specific to my unit.
	All right, a couple other things here on this um whole New Orleans business and the oil spill before we move on here and get to some of your phone calls.
	Because I've got two stories here.
	And uh uh one of the things you know we do here on this program, we have long memories.
	We know how the left and their media operate, eight years of ripping Bush to shreds, out there accusing Tea Party people of being the new domestic terrorists and all this sort of stuff, but it's infuriating.
	And any time I can find evidence that the people doing the accusing are actually the problem, I like to remind you of it.
	And this is an example.
	Hampton, Virginia, June 5th, 2007, from the Associated Press, Democrat presidential candidate, Barack Obama said Tuesday, the Bush administration has done nothing to defuse a quiet riot among blacks that threatens to erupt just as riots in Los Angeles did 15 years ago.
	He's talking about Hurricane Katrina and how Bush and his lack of response has fueled resentment among blacks.
	So here's Obama was playing the race card against Bush and Republicans even three years ago.
	The first term Illinois Senators said that with black people from New Orleans and the Gulf Coast still displaced 20 months after Hurricane Katrina, frustration and resentments are building explosively as they did before the 1992 riots.
	The Bush administration was colorblind in its incompetence.
	Obama said this at a conference of black clergy, but the poverty and the hopelessness was there long before the hurricane, and nobody cared.
	All the hurricane did was pull a curtain back for all the world to see.
	He doesn't mention, of course, that the whole place has been run by liberal Democrats for who knows how many years, New Orleans.
	I'll tell you what Hurricane Katrina did.
	Hurricane Katrina illustrated exactly what happens when you have a community totally run by leftists with no checks and balances on them.
	That's what you get.
	And that's what Hurricane Katrina displayed.
	Obama's criticism of Bush prompted ovation after ovation from the nearly 8,000 people gathered in Hampton University's convocation center, particularly when Obama denounced the Iraq War and noted that he had opposed it from the outset.
	So if you want to talk about anti-government and violence inciting rhetoric, all you have to do is go back to our own president when he was a senator from Illinois, running for the presidency.
	He stands tall above all the rest.
	This little story here, A.P. Hampton, Virginia, June 5, 2007, stunning reminder just how violently anti-government an elected official can be.
	Barack Obama.
	He even introduced Jeremiah Wright at this convocation.
	As unashamedly black and unapologetically Christian.
	He credited Reverend Wright with introducing him to Christ.
	He peppered his speech with scriptural references.
	At one point invoking the opening lines of a Lord's Prayer.
	Obama noted that during the riots, a bullet pierced the abdomen of a pregnant woman and lodged in the elbow of her fetus.
	The baby was delivered by Caesarean section, the bullet was removed, and the child, Jessica Glenis Evers Jones, has only a small scar on her arm to show for it.
	Using the infinite incident as a metaphor, Obama said society's problems are worsening because in too many places around the country we haven't even bothered to take the bullet out.
	This is Obama talking about race relations in America, 2007, saying that Bush was exacerbating the problem because he doesn't care about black people in New Orleans.
	And there's this before we go to the break, January 20th, 2009 from the Politico.
	The new White House website unveiled by President Obama's team Tuesday includes a shot at former President Bush's response to Hurricane Katrina.
	Under the agenda portion of the site regarding Katrina, the new Obama website reads, President Obama will keep the broken promises made by President Bush to rebuild New Orleans and the Gulf Coast.
	He and Vice President Biden will take steps to ensure that the federal government will never again allow such catastrophic failures in emergency planning and response to occur.
	January 20th.
	That's the day of the Immaculation on the website, ripping into Bush for not doing anything about Katrina New Orleans and promising never again will this happen.
	And yet they didn't respond this administration for 12 days.
	After the BP rig blew up.
	The website points out how swiftly Obama responded to Hurricane Katrina.
	It points out that Obama visited thousands of hurricane survivors in the Houston Convention Center, and later took three more trips to the region and worked with the Congressional Black Caucus to help rebuild in the aftermath of Katrina.
	And now Zilch Zero Nada.
	So here, folks, here you have our own president standing tall as the leader of all voices of anti-government rhetoric.
	Barack Obama.
	And that blurb, by the way, on Obama's website attacking Bush for Hurricane Katrina is still up.
	And they put it up on January 20th, and I'm watching the White House press briefing, and Gibbs just repeated Salazar's line about keeping the boot on the throat of British petroleum here.
	It's their fault.
	It's their problem.
	The White House press secretary just urged fishermen in the Gulf to sue BP.
	They are responsible for the claims.
	If people can't fish, then their business is being deprived of livelihood.
	Why, they've got to want to be the ones the final claims.
	So BP's fault.
	We're going to keep the they're going to kick the boot on BP's throat.
	But um they really like that image.
	They really, really like that image of a jackbooted thug on the throat.
	Wait till you see the editorial cartoons on that.
	All in uh in support.
	You know it it's clear if you go back and read the stories in detail that I just quoted from, Obama was whipping up black outrage and divisiveness during the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.
	And yet he and Clinton are running out warning people about people like me and the Tea Party people.
	Here's Gene Taylor, by the way.
	This is uh Saturday, Biloxi, Mississippi on W L O X T V eyeball News.
	Gene Taylor is a Democrat from Mississippi.
	The anchor David Elliott says you flew at about a thousand feet uh over the slick.
	What happened out there?
	Well I want people to know this isn't Katrina.
	This is not Armageddon.
	Yeah, it's bad.
	And it's terrible that there's a spill out there.
	And remember that it has been flowing for a number of days now.
	And we were up there with uh Dr. Bill Walker from the Mississippi Department of Marine Resources, and one of the things that he pointed out correctly is that the farther you get from the spill, that chocolate milk looking spill starts breaking up into smaller pieces.
	The chocolate milk looking oil spill starts breaking up into smaller pieces.
	Now there's two things about this.
	I you can think what you want about referring to the oil spill as chocolate milk looking.
	But he is saying something that happens.
	The oil spill will break up.
	I'm not trying to minimize it here.
	Uh but we do have all these uh you know the ecology does take care of itself, the uh the planet does while the panic?
	Oh.
	A crisis.
	Well, it's gonna break up.
	It's not gonna be a giant glob when it hits, but it's gonna be it's gonna pose problems.
	I'm not gonna say it's not gonna pose problems, but he's saying that as it breaks up, it will it will break down.
	Uh you know, seawater is pretty tough stuff.
	Try living in it for a while.
	Uh oil has a tough time surviving.
	I mean, there's there's you know this many gallons of oil seep from the floor of the Gulf of Mexico every day, just spread out over the whole floor of the Gulf, and it never surfaces because it gets eaten alive.
	But it seeps from the uh from the ocean floor to at this amount, not as concentrated, obviously as coming from uh from this well.
	Let's go to the phones.
	People have been waiting patiently.
	We go to Chicago.
	Cindy, nice to have you on the EIB network.
	Hello, sir.
	Sir.
	This is Cindy.
	Hello?
	Yeah, I what did I say?
	He said, sir.
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	I'm sorry.
	I'm uh lot of things going on in my mind here today.
	My fault.
	You're like an old old friend.
	Anyway, uh what I wanted to call about and then I just wanted to mention just a real quick sentence after I make my comment.
	But anyway, there was a deputy sheriff that was killed, excuse me, not killed, he was shot.
	And none and even Fox didn't do much on it.
	They just barely mentioned it.
	Anyway, the the fellow was shot in the abdomen.
	So then w like the day after he was shot on I think it was HLN, you know, one of the CNN stations, they mentioned that he was shot in the abdomen, but it didn't hit any vital organs and you know, he's gonna be fine.
	And then they went on with something else.
	And then CNN instead had this whole interview with the the the policeman in Tucson that's not going to obey the fr the the new law.
	Meantime, if we'll remember that when the accusation was about somebody spitting on, you know, uh Congressman using the N-word.
	That was for two weeks.
	They talked and talked and talked and talked.
	Here you have this poor fellow shot, actually shot.
	And they just say, well, it didn't hit any vital organs, so you know, he's gonna be okay.
	Well, it's a good lesson is how the media operates here.
	Pardon?
	It's a great lesson, Cindy, sir, in how the uh how the media operates here.
	I I I know this is in you know, being here in Chicago, we have had more people, I think it's a hundred and twelve or fifteen, a hundred and whatever that have been killed in Chicago since since January.
	That's more than have died in the in Afghanistan.
	And they are demanding, I mean the the folks that live in this area of Chicago are demanding that the government bring in some National Guard troops.
	Well, I know.
	We uh covered this last week.
	Bring in the notes.
	You know, they're asking for help.
	I mean, the you know, it's getting out of out of sight.
	I mean, it's horrible.
	And if I could just mention one little thing that I that I didn't tell um, sure, go ahead.
	Mr. Sterling, uh, because I'm a retired teacher.
	When they when and you mentioned this, uh, I think it was Friday, but I tried and tried and tried and tried and couldn't get through.
	Uh when you mention that in Arizona, English teachers that have accents aren't going to be permitted to teach English.
	Right.
	They're gonna be able to just give you a little clarification on that.
	I've got thirty seconds here, Cindy.
	Okay.
	Uh they're not talking about regular English teachers.
	They're talking about ESL, teachers that teach English as a second language.
	And it means nothing about accent.
	In other words, you could be from Mississippi or Boston or so it isn't accent.
	What they want is someone who can pronounce all English sounds like a native born speaker.
	Well, uh, that sounds highly discriminatory to me.
	Uh, and that that's the way the uh CNN's playing it, uh, everybody else is playing it.
	Can't teach ethnic studies out there anymore either.
	I mean, Arizona's really dispated and uh uh hated and despised here uh by uh by the Obama media back after this.
	Hey quite do I sound spacey today?
	It's got an email from somebody who says I sound spacey asking me if I'm okay.
	I sound spacey to you, Don.
	It's not a female thing.
	How about you, snurdly?
	Do I sound spacey to you?
	Everybody thinks I'm fine, okay.
	I thought so too.
	Back to the phones, Dan in in Ozarks, Missouri.
	Great to have you on the EIB network, sir.
	Hello.
	Hello, Ross.
	Mega Air Traffic Control Ditto.
	Thank you very much, sir.
	Hey, uh, my question is you've been you've been contrasting George Bush's administration with Katrina's or the treatment of uh his administration of about Katrina.
	What about his father, H. W. Bush and the Exxon Valdez, how they were demonized uh over all that mishap, as opposed uh you know, is the driver by media are they going to uh treat uh the Obama administration as they have the other administrations in these type incidents.
	No, no, that I did I did a whole monologue on that about about how the the media is just wringing its hands here over, oh my gosh, how do we do this?
	Uh Obama's not doing anything.
	How do we keep his name out?
	Of course not.
	Uh they're gonna do everything they can to shield Obama from having any involvement or any lack of uh competent response to this whatsoever.
	Just the way of the world.
	It's the lay of the land, it's just the way things are.
	Um the Democrats and their media, they've got an agenda.
	And it's it's like I said at the beginning of the program here, everything is to demonize, and you go from group to group to group and you repeat it, uh, and this is supposed to suffice as doing something about it.
	You demonize doctors, you demonize banks, you demonize Wall Street, you uh uh demonize me, demonize Fox Fox News.
	Uh now they're they're they're they're all over British petroleum, uh and they make speeches talking about how much they care and so but they're not solving any problem whatsoever because his whole agenda is not related to being a competent executive or uh managing things in the country, it's about transforming it and changing it.
	Whatever we can do and whatever event happens that will further his desire to change the country, he's gonna take advantage of.
	And this is a uh a classic example.
	Here you have who is one of the biggest enemies of the left, and you've got a long enemies list when you're talking about these people.
	One of the biggest enemies of the left is big oil.
	They hate big oil.
	You've heard we played the sound bites of Maxine Waters, desiring to nationalize them, to socialize them, to take over their businesses.
	Whenever gasoline prices skyrocket, big oil, big problem, obscene profits, they they zero in on them.
	Uh this is how the left governs.
	Remember now the left cannot win anything via policy.
	The the left's ideas are not representative of a majority of thought in this country.
	They are a minority.
	They appear to be a majority because they've got the big media with them, but they are a minority of thought.
	So they can't win by policy.
	Obama, Obama's not winning anything by policy.
	He's winning it by typical Chicago thuggery.
	However, you have to, whoever you have to bribe, however you have to uh threaten, uh whatever you have to threaten in order to get somebody's vote for a piece of legislation, do it.
	Uh so here you have British petroleum.
	I mean, Gibbs was smiling just a moment ago in the White House press conference briefing when he said, repeated Ken Salazar's line about we've got the boot, keep the boot on BP's throat.
	Now, wouldn't you think?
	I mean, this is a problem that is threatening Americans.
	There are Americans who live in Louisiana and Texas and Alabama, Mississippi, and Florida.
	They are all threatened.
	We have a White House press secretary who goes on TV smiling, urging fishermen in those states to sue British petroleum, and at the same time happily talking about how the boot is on the throat of British petroleum.
	They're not solving anything.
	They're looking, everybody that doesn't vote for them, everybody they're perceive as standing in the way of their agenda is an enemy, is an adversary.
	They don't see an opportunity for partnership here.
	They're shoving this all off on British petroleum.
	It's British petroleum's fault.
	Now, I understand the politics of it.
	They have in their minds, probably got some polling data, some focus group research that uh tells them people hate oil companies.
	And why not?
	Oil companies have been demonized for decades by liberals and Democrats.
	So here's an oil company.
	And there's oil in the gulf.
	We got a big slick.
	Made to order for people like Obama and Janet Napolitano and Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton, made to order.
	Rama Manuel, a crisis.
	No crisis too great to waste.
	There's no attempt to solve this.
	There's no desire to solve it.
	This is chaos.
	This is tumult.
	This is how they advance their agenda.
	They also hate Republicans, they hate conservatives.
	Uh so they're out there doing everything they can to demonize because they can't beat us on policy.
	They cannot beat us in debate in the arena of ideas.
	They don't even play in the arena of ideas, folks.
	They're not even, they're not even on that field.
	Let's go to the sound bites.
	This was Saturday morning Ann Arbor, Michigan, Obama gave the commencement address, and here is a portion of what Obama said.
	If you're a fan of Glenn Beck or Rush Limbaugh, try reading a few columns on the Huffington Post website.
	It may make your blood boil.
	Your mind may not be changed.
	But the practice of listening to opposing views is essential for effective citizenship.
	It is essential for our democracy.
	L. Rushball living rent-free inside Obama's head.
	If you're a fan of Glenn Becker Rush Limbaugh, try reading a few columns on the Huffing and Puffington Post.
	Now, this, from the guy who said in the first month of his administration, you will remember when I remind you.
	He had a meeting of Republican and Democrat congressional leaders in the White House, and he looked at John Boehner.
	And he said, You gotta stop listening to Rush Limbaugh.
	That's not how things get done in Washington.
	So he goes to Ann Arbor a little over a year later and says, if you're a fan of Rush Limbaugh-Glenn Beck, try reading something else.
	But he tells John Boehner, don't listen to Rush Limbaugh.
	Why, that's not how things get done in Washington.
	So what he wants is for all of you who think you're brainwashed by me, I'm your Svingali, you're a bunch of mice, and I'm the Pied Piper.
	You gotta break free here, folks.
	You gotta break free.
	You gotta read some of the trash that's on the Huffington Post.
	You gotta go somewhere.
	It may make you mad, but you gotta break away.
	Now he also said that we don't have this on the bite, but he did say if you're a fan of something else, you should try Fox News.
	I mean, he he tried to balance this out.
	But the problem with it is not what he does.
	He's as close-minded a president as we've ever had.
	He doesn't listen to opposing points of views.
	He doesn't want to hear them.
	When he does have opposing point, you look at remember the health care summit.
	The look on his face when Paul Ryan told the truth about health care, but you could see the rage.
	Obama wasn't open to it.
	He's not open to anybody else's ideas.
	He may want you to think so, but he's not.
	What Obama doesn't understand is that you do watch other media.
	You do read other media.
	You do listen to other media.
	You may not do it as much because you don't trust it and like it anymore.
	You know the New York Times is what it is.
	You know that the Huffing and Puffington Post is what it is.
	You know what you're going to get out of Time magazine.
	I play for you on this program, what they say.
	I play with the sound bites that we play on this show are primarily of people who oppose me or have opposing points of view.
	I'm not afraid for you to hear what they think.
	But here's Obama telling the students at uh University of Michigan Ann Arbor.
	Don't be afraid.
	You, you know, you Flimbaugh fans, don't be afraid.
	Go to people that listen to this show know more of what Obama and the liberals are saying than people who listen to left-wing sites, shows or whatever.
	We don't hide from it, and the people in this audience are not by any stretch of the imagination uninformed or ignorant about what Obama is, who he is, or what he believes.
	There's a second companion bite to this, uh, another portion of what he said, and it's this.
	You can question somebody's views and their judgment without questioning their motives or their patriotism.
	Throwing around phrases like socialists and Soviet-style takeover and fascists and right-wing nut.
	That may grab headlines, but it also has the effect of comparing our government, our political opponents, to authoritarian, even murderous regimes.
	Oh, he's getting to him, folks.
	That's getting to him.
	It is getting to him.
	Regime.
	He doesn't like being called a regime because authoritarian regime.
	Now stop and think of this.
	Let me try to put this in perspective.
	It's a commencement speech.
	You have a bunch of kids whose parents have gone broke, sending them to this school to get their degrees, their education.
	The president of the United States is coming in to do the commencement speech.
	And what does he do?
	Does he talks about me and talks about Glenn Beck, talks about regimes.
	Does he inspire these students?
	No, he's instructing them on how to think what to avoid and where to go.
	And of course the godlike reverb off the charts in those two sound bites.
	But I mean, I uh conservatives are not asked to do commencement speeches.
	They just aren't.
	But I certainly, if I I I would not, if if I if really if I was asked to do commencement speech, I wouldn't spend any time on Obama at all.
	I would talk about the obstacles certain people are going to face based on policy decisions we've made, maybe how to get around them.
	But a commencement speech, to me, is supposed to at least try to be inspiring and uplifting.
	Congratulatory.
	Sometimes you lie to them and say, okay, you're the future kids when they're really not yet.
	They're still at the age where the kind of car they drive determines what people think of them, but you do want to motivate them and inspire them out there.
	But there was none of that from Obama.
	It's just it's um.
	I think anybody with an open mind, it is obvious that he has not the experience nor the temperament.
	But you know what they say about Ben Rothisberger.
	Terry Bradshaw said about Ben Rothesberger.
	He has got to remember who he is.
	He just can't go wandering around a bunch of college town bars and offering to buy shots for 20-year-old women.
	He's got to, he's the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback.
	He's an elite athlete in the national football.
	He's got well, I was the same thing about Obama.
	He's got to realize who he is.
	Maybe he does, but he has an entirely different version or view of the presidency than anybody else who's ever served in this office has.
	Quick break.
	Back after this.
	Don't go away.
	So President Obama wants all of you to start reading the Huffing and Puffington Post.
	So I went there during the break.
	I wonder what is the most popular story right now at the Huffing and Puffington Post.
	If you were to take his advice and go there, the most popular story right now, the Huffing and Puffington Post is this.
	Obama kills at White House correspondent.
	It's about what a great comedy routine that he had.
	Proving everything is about him.
	Never forget that when he makes speech.
	Now, I just took a glance over here to my left.
	Eight days ago, we had delivered from ProFlowers a dozen roses.
	I didn't know they were coming.
	Snerdley brought him in there.
	He said, I said, what are these for?
	He says, they love you.
	Well, I know that, but well, obviously Mother's Day is coming up, because they always pepper us.
	Deliver us exciting things.
	I'm telling you, folks, these roses, there are a dozen of them over here.
	They're white, they're red, um won't say orange, but not really an orange, but it's close to that, and pink.
	And they have not gone bad.
	They look just like they did three or four days ago.
	And they still smell great.
	They've been in here over a week.
	Now, Mother's Day is this Sunday.
	And if you haven't figured out what to get your mother, Pro Flowers is your answer.
	It is a no-brainer.
	A Mother's Day gift, flowers, you can't go wrong, that last a week.
	These are roses.
	One dozen roses, nineteen ninety-nine plus shipping, and as always a free glass vase.

	RushProflowers.com, dozen roses, and a Mother's Day present that lasts a week or more.
	And we have nothing special.
	We just put them in water, put them there, and that's it.
	We've watered them one time.
	Here is John in Kingman, Arizona.
	Welcome to the EIB network.
	Great to have you here.
	Thank you, Rush.
	Being from Arizona, I have to say it's an honor to be hated and despised by Obama and the tried by NPS.
	Yes, it's sort of Lord, thank you for my enemies.
	Yes.
	Anyway, um, oh, Reagan was the great communicator, Rush.
	You are the great validator.
	Anyway, I called about the AP report I read Saturday.
	Um apparently Obama appointed Coast Guard Admiral Tad Allen to be the lead in the oil spill response.
	He probably did that so he could put some blame on the military if something goes wrong.
	But anyway, this uh admiral said that there's uh no one could pinpoint how much is leaking from the ruptured well because of its depth.
	But uh media has been reporting that it's still growing at the rate of five thousand barrels or two hundred and ten thousand gallons a day, which I find curious because uh you reported last week, Dr. Roy Spencer said that that's the amount that is the natural sea peach from the Gulf.
	So uh I'm not sure what they're trying to do here.
	Well, here's the thing about that's from the whole floor, but the floor of the Gulf of Mexico is a large area.
	Right.
	And they and this this oil seepage is uh drip, drip, drip, drip, drip throughout the Gulf.
	It's not coming from another single source with that much concentrated oil in uh in in one dose.
	But I just had sent to me.
	I just had sent to me.
	I what just had sent to me.
	I just saw it.
	Uh it's if this picture gets out, it's it's gonna change everything.
	It's a close-up of a giant dead sea turtle on the beach, smothered in oil.
	These are the kind of things we haven't seen those pictures yet.
	Now, and I haven't seen this picture in the media.
	It was just sent to me.
	I think it's a media picture.
	When that thing starts, remember we went into Somalia because of a front page picture of the New York Times of a starving Somali boy with the insects flying over his head.
	So when this picture gets out, it's gonna change the equation here for the BAMster.
	The Politico has a story they posted this morning in the headline, Pelosi to White House, quit bashing DC.
	The fear raised by Speaker Pelosi is that Democrats have more to lose if anti-Washing's uh Washington sediment is not directed at one party or the other.
	Uh Obama's criticizing Washington as she wants him to stop, start criticizing Republicans in Washington.
