Time Text
And greetings to you, music lovers, thrill seekers conversationalists all across the fruited plane.
Rush Limboy and the most listened to radio talk show in history.
Well, at least since the invention of television, the EIB network, hosted by me, meeting and surpassing all audience expectations daily.
Telephone number is 800 282-2882, the email address El Rushbow at EIB net.com.
Once again, I went to the email during the break and I checked some things, and a lot of people, very nice things being said, complimentary things regarding my monologue one hour ago.
But as always, there are some people that want to take their shots.
And they say, Well, it's easy for you to say Rush.
Easy for you to say, but you're a big star.
Everybody's gonna be deferential to you.
You don't have to sit around, you don't have to listen to people insulting you at work and making fun of you and oh, really.
Uh let me I'm I'm gonna say one more thing about this, and I'm gonna get back to the issues, quote unquote.
Nothing, nothing is as it seems to you on the outside.
Nothing is as it seems to me on the outside.
I look at things, I look at people.
If I tell myself a story about what I think somebody else's life is like, the odds are I'm gonna be 80% wrong.
I can't tell you the number of times I find myself in so myself in social situations with a bunch of not even hardcore liberals, they're just the average touchy-feely people who automatically look at me with hate in their eyes.
They may not know who I am by virtue of listening, they know who I am by reputation.
And they act superior and they condescend all over the place.
They try to goad me into being the person that I think I am, and I just sit back and smile.
And it is I who have the air and attitude of superiority.
I know that it's not worth my time to get engaged with this kind of small fry.
I have I have people constantly looking to notch their belts with me.
It is um I don't surround myself with uh with with uh what what's the word uh brown nosers.
I do not in any way, shape, manner, for my staff gives me crap all the time.
Uh I mean I barely got through the show yesterday.
They're telling me I was show was was horrible.
I'm in the middle of thinking I'm doing a greatest show ever.
And you know, could you kinda refocus here a little bit, Rush?
I'm thinking I'm you know on a on a highway to happiness here.
But nobody there is nobody in the world that except kings who can force people to treat them with respect when they don't desire, because they can kill them otherwise.
Nobody uh has the kind of respect and idolatry.
Everybody thinks that everybody else's life is perfect, everybody's got far more respect than you.
It's not the case uh at at all.
I can't tell you the number of times I'm surrounded by smug, arrogant little people who get their little digs in, they think they think they're scoring points, they're trying to go to me.
I don't even rise to the bait.
Uh and it in fact, in some cases, I got people grabbing my wrist.
Just just don't don't do it, don't do it.
Let's just get out of here.
Let's just take your time.
And these are people that I'm meeting for the first time, not people I know well.
What happens uh Amazon all this what started this was this guy sends me an email says liberals at work are destroying it every day.
They're taking away his self-confidence and so forth.
And I answered him an hour ago, and then people responding, well, yeah, he's nobody disrespect you because you're a big star.
You're very powerful.
Oh, not true.
I prop you think nobody disrespects me.
Let's go to the audio soundbikes.
This is exactly what I'm talking about here.
This is a soundbite.
They are lying and making up things that I have not said, either about slavery with the NFL and the St. Louis Rams, Michael J. Fox, and now the oil spill.
Rush Limbaugh's conspiracy theory about the oil rig explosion.
Rush Limbaugh suggests environmentalists may have tried to blow up the oil rig.
No.
Dangers for Rush Limbaugh to say that the presidents or one of his supporters somehow blew up that oil rig to create havoc.
Rush Limbaugh made noises in that direction The other day that this is suspicious somehow that actually this is this conspiratorial desire to stop offshore drilling.
Rush Limbaugh says that hardcore environmentalist wackos blew up the oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico.
Is it hard for the tin foil hat for Rush Limbaugh?
Everyone just has to cool their jet fuel like Rush Limbaugh.
This has been Rush Limbaugh's whole shtick for the last few days.
Right.
Uh never mind.
I never said any of this.
Now I sit here.
I sit here and uh and laugh at it.
None one of these people listened to this show.
Not one of these people has gone to my website.
Not one of them has read a transcript of what I've said.
Uh it's par for the course, and it is what it is.
I just I think it's hilarious.
What I said was, whoa, the regime is sending SWAT teams down there.
This changes everything.
If the regime is sending SWAT teams down there, maybe somebody thinks this isn't an accident.
I never accused the regime of blowing up the rig.
I know I haven't accused anybody of blowing it up.
We do think pieces.
We react in real time on this program.
Here's uh here's James Rosen, Fox News Channel's special report last night on the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
Not until eight days after the deep water horizon well exploded, according to published reports, did federal officials purchase the fire boom they used to begin containing the spillage, even though a federal plan for such disasters drawn up in 1994 called for just such a response and might, if adhered to, have resulted in the capture of 95% of the spilled oil.
That apparent failure feeds into complaints lodged by the New York Times and Rush Limbaugh alike, alleging the Obama administration waited too long to wrest control over the accident from BP.
Now, you might think, oh wow, Russia could be flattered here.
No, they lumped me in with the New York Times.
I must be doing something wrong.
I have to re-examine.
Reexamine what I'm doing here.
If they're going to lump me in with the New York Times, if I'm on the same page as the New York Times, uh actually, in this case, because I did give the, you know, Times did have an editorial.
It buried it on Saturday.
But they did say, you know, that the timeline here is not favorable to the Bamster.
The timeline's not favorable here to the regime making the case.
They're on the case from day one.
They really weren't.
Uh long time ago made the prediction on this program when the stimulus money runs out, the states are gonna have to finally start laying off people making budget cuts and so forth, low and making this prediction for um months.
Goodbye stimulus.
Hello, state budget cuts.
CNN Money.com.
You think states have made deep spending cuts?
You ain't seen nothing yet.
States have been struggling with huge budget gaps since 2008, but this year could be worse as federal stimulus funds wind down.
The stimulus funds have staved off what could have been even deeper cuts, said Todd Haggerty, Paul, the policy associate at the National Conference of State Legislatures.
You're seeing states now are coming to the point where they're gonna have to make additional cuts or find new sources of revenue for fiscal two 2011, and that'll continue into fiscal 2012.
But with the stimulus lifeline running out, officials are looking at making significant cutbacks to public services, particularly scruels and health programs.
Now, if we had not had any stimulus, the same budgets that are being cut now would have been cut a year ago.
But the debt would have been smaller.
So how exactly did the stimulus do anything but delay the inevitable?
Because the stimulus did not lead to any more productivity.
No GDP was added to.
There was no more gross domestic product, no additional production.
The private sector has not grown, and the public sector lives off the private sector.
If not for the public sector or private sector, there is no public sector.
So all these public sector people making two times what private sector employees make.
That can't, that's not sustainable.
Can't go on.
It's what's happening in Greece.
It's happening all around us.
And it was immediate, it was it was an easy call.
Very easy.
Oh, along the same, along the same lines.
Uh They say you're judged by the strength of your enemies.
Here's a political story.
A Democrat Senatorial Campaign Committee emailed to ask supporters to sign a petition to stand with President Obama to hold BP accountable.
So they are now fundraising off of the oil spill.
They are fundraising off of it.
The Democrats and Obama are fundraising off of it.
They're not solving it.
They're not partnering up.
They're seeing a demon.
And they're using it to raise money while they make they don't lift a finger to solve this problem while demonizing poor old British petroleum.
Let me read to you a section of the email.
The Obama administration has vowed to keep a boot on the throat of BP to ensure the corporation is held accountable for the spill.
But Republican leader Rush Limbaugh has a different plan.
He said there's no need to clean up the spill because the ocean will take care of this on its own.
And it oil is natural.
It's as natural as the ocean water is.
Republican leader, the Republican leader, Rush Limbaugh has a different plan.
So they're using boot on the throat, BP, and me to fundraise.
The person is judged by the strength of his enemies.
Of course...
Again, a total distortion.
I never said the ocean will take care of this on its own.
What I said was there is seepage from the floor of the Gulf every day, equal to the amount leaking from this rig.
We don't see it because in small amounts the ocean eats it up.
In time, the ocean will deal with this.
But I didn't say that, along with saying, leave it alone.
Let's not try to figure it out.
Ocean will take care of no big deal here.
Now, I will maintain it is it's can you believe it's controversial to say that oil is as natural as water?
That's very controversial, yet is it undeniably true.
Why do I have to explain that oil is as natural as water?
Snerdley is saying this is today's America.
Kids have been brainwashed for 50 years.
They think oil is a poison.
Oil is destructive, dirty, destroying the planet.
Oil's destroying the planet, right.
And man-made.
Oil, they think oil's man-made.
Yeah.
The oil companies, they have to go to find it, but they know where it is because they put it there.
Uh, and so they have to go get it in order to destroy.
Yeah, the oil companies want to kill their customers, just like the drug companies do.
This is what the left tells us.
Drug companies want to kill you.
They are willing to put faulty drugs on the market that will kill you, because they like to kill their customers.
This is what kids have been taught.
Well, when I say that oil is as natural as water, is that both were here before we were.
Uh now oil may be a little bit tougher to find than water is, but it's as much a part of nature as the clouds are.
Oil is as much a part of nature as mosquitoes.
Uh viruses are part of nature.
Uh, everything is nature.
We are part of nature, yet man is said to be an enemy of nature because we found oil.
Even though it was there, Mr. Limbaugh.
You're right, Mr. Limbaugh was there, but we found it and we are using it to destroy the planet.
That's the voice of the new castrati, as um popularized by the modern Democrat Socialist Workers' Party here in the United States of America.
So anyway, they're fundraising.
Republican leader, Rush Limbaugh says, now, I have my friend, don't you get mad at this?
Don't you get so mad the way they lie about you and just the way I look at it is this.
Everybody gets lied about.
Obama, everybody gets lied about at some point.
Reagan got lied about, Churchill got lied about.
Jesus Christ gets lied About.
You can't stop being lied about.
It's how you deal with it.
And part of dealing with it is to come to grips with who's doing the lying.
And as far as I'm concerned, these are a bunch of pipsqueaks who are so desperate to try to hold on to some political office in November that Republican leader says, there's no difference.
Leave it alone, it'll fix it.
I'd also, you know, there's also a factor here.
I I you might disagree with me on this, but I the reason I'm still optimistic.
I look at things like this and I say, okay, the Democrats receiving this, of course they're gonna be rabid insaniacs looking at the yeah, yeah, yeah, Limbo's dead.
I know they're gonna say that.
But I the majority of the American people, particularly the ones who listen to this program, the ones I care about the most.
I mean, this program is for you.
The show is the thing, and I finish here every day knowing when any of you in this audience see this, you know what a bunch of absolute pap this is, and we enjoy it together.
I'm not worried that this kind of stuff is gonna change your mind about me, because you already know.
So they can't, they can't shake my confidence.
In fact, the fact that they have to lie about me, I take as a compliment.
The fact that they do not address what I actually say, I take as a compliment.
Now it took me a while to get here, but I'm there, I'm here, and I'm not leaving it.
We'll be back.
Stay with another thing, folks.
I'm just like every other man in America.
When I get home, I'm wrong.
The dog is right more often than I am.
Now, this business about me and the oil slick.
Let me let me let me just be very upfront and honest here.
As you know, I own beachfront property.
And I'm hearing that if this oil slick hits the right ocean currents and go down South Florida, up the Florida Strait into the Gulf Stream and possibly be worse on the east coast of Florida than on the West Coast in the panhandle.
Well, I happen to be on the East Coast.
I happen to own beachfront property.
I think I can better identify with people facing the oil spill in Texas and Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and people living on the Gulf Coast than anybody in the media who does not have beachfront property.
Most of them don't have beachfront property.
How can they identify with people who do have beachfront property?
Who are they to judge?
They don't have any skin in the game.
Well, who who are they to judge what I say about this?
Somebody asked me, do you care, Rush?
What happens if the oil slick hits your beach?
Well, you know, folks, I look at everything to find the good in it.
There is good in everything that happens.
Oh, you ought to see the staff.
They're laughing, and at the same time, they're hoping but praying that I don't say what they think I'm going to say next.
Snurdly is egging me on, Dawn is going, don't do it, Brian is just hanging his head to deal with whatever happens.
What happens if the oil what if they're right?
What if the oil slick does happen to hit my beach?
Well, two things.
Oil hits the beach.
Hello.
There's oil on the beach.
Secondly, there won't be any people on the beach.
Yes.
That's a positive.
Third thing, I might be able to keep my lights on at night because there won't be any turtles on the beach.
The turtles will be smart enough not to show up.
And at some point the beach will fix itself.
Some point it'll all be repair.
We dredge the inlet.
We dump new sand on the beach constantly throughout the year on my beach.
My taxes pay for it, along with other beachfront property owners.
It is what it is.
It is what it is.
Yeah, would I blame Obama for it happening?
Maybe on this show for the fun of it.
Especially if he doesn't do anything to stop it, but I'm not gonna blame BP.
They're the ones trying to stop it.
They're the ones trying to fix it.
Now look at this story out of Greece here, folks.
Three dead as anti-austerity riots erupt in Athens.
But look who the mob killed.
Riots over harsh new austerity measures left three bank workers dead in Athens.
Who Is it that has been ripping into bankers?
The most powerful man in the world has been, Barack Obama, as well as his Democrat Socialist Workers' Party.
Three bankers dead in Greek austerity riots.
Here's Donna in uh in Hanford, California.
Great to have you on the EIB network.
Hi, Donna.
Thank you, sir.
Uh, as a conservative who worked in a very liberal environment, I applied a simple rule when people denigrated me.
I would look at them and go.
Does that have a person have any value to me?
I would look at them and I would ask, would I change myself to please that person?
Excellent.
The answer was no, it's just like who cares?
Excellent.
Absolutely 1,000 percent excellent right out of money.
So basically what you have, you have you're wearing a suit of invisible armor, and you process all these criticisms, and if they come from people you value, okay, you'll think about it.
Yeah, yes.
If not, it bounces off of you.
That's right.
Simple way to live.
Christian faith holds me strong and never bothered me a bit.
Congratulations.
Not only is that not only is that a great life philosophy, uh, but it's also well said.
Thank you.
I appreciate your calling.
Thank you very much.
Uh, we only have a half hour left on this program.
But David Obi, there's a lesson here to learn about it's not just that he's facing a guaranteed electoral loss in Michigan, Wisconsin.
It is why.
I mean, what kind of candidate?
Who is the candidate running against Obi that is guaranteed to beat him?
Must be, must be a moderate, right?
Must be a centrist Republican.
That's what the powers that be in the Republican Party would say.
Well, we'll tell you the answer we get back.
And we are back on the fastest three hours in media.
Rush Limbaugh and the Excellence in Broadcasting Network.
There's a there's a great quote from that old movie tycoon, Samuel Goldwyn.
He had a tendency to speak like Yogi Berra.
He he spoke in Maloprops now and then.
He one time said, Don't pay any attention to the critics.
Don't even ignore them.
How many of you?
A quick question.
How many of you walk into a room and ask yourself, gee, I wonder what these people think of me.
Now be honest.
Be on how many of you walk in a room and w gee, I wonder what they're going to think of the way I'm dressed.
I wonder what gonna think of my weight.
I wonder what they're going to think of my hairstyle.
I wonder what these people are going to think of what I do.
Be honest.
And how many of you walk into a room and say, hmm, what do I think of these people?
Is that you, Snartley?
Pretty much, yeah.
You walk into a room and then what do what?
What do I think of these goons?
What do I think of these schlubs?
Well, but I mean, okay, what do I think of?
You don't walk in there, see, I wonder do I look okay?
Oh, this is my is my tie straight.
They think they're gonna like me.
You don't do that?
Most people do.
Most people do not walk into a room and say, hmm.
What do I think of these people?
Takes a while to get there.
Now the Obi question.
This is from uh Dave Weigel, who's a blogger at the Washington Post.
We know about the retirement of David Obe, but why would one of the most powerful men in Congress elected in 1969 in a district that went for the Obama Biden ticket bail out of a re-election?
Republicans point to the campaign of Sean Duffy, a literally telegenic district attorney, who raised a lot of money, built a following among national conservatives, and according to everything I'm hearing, was giving Obi a real battle in internal polls.
Dave Weigel writes, I've talked to Duffy several times.
I've been so impressed and so convinced that this was a sort of race that would determine this was a good or watershed year for Republicans.
I dubbed him the number three conservative to watch.
The bottom line is here.
David Obi, one of the most powerful men in Congress, elected in 1969, in a district that went for Obama Biden is quitting because he's being outpulled by a died-in-the-wool conservative Republican, not a moderate Republican, not an independent Republican, but a died-in-the-wool conservative Republican.
Once again, a teachable moment.
Back to the phone, Steve in Scottsdale, Arizona.
Nice to have you on the EIB network, sir.
Hello.
El Megadidozel Rushboard from Immigration Ground.
Thank you, sir.
By the way, uh, broadcast engineer, send by on Soundbite 26.
Go ahead, Steve.
Um, yes, um, I see that a m vast majority of Arizona citizens are in support of our governor and the immigration bill, but um the Suns organization seemed to um make a political move, which is again symbolism over substance, by changing their jerseys uh on the Cinco de Mayo to Los Suns instead of just sons.
Um as a little uh Spanish translation, that means the sons.
I mean, if they wanted to go all the way, they would have Los Soles.
Yeah.
Yeah, this is uh the What's your opinion, Rush?
Phoenix Sun Basketball team.
Well, you know, I um my opinion is I think professional sports needs to man up.
You got you've got the Reverend Daxon demanding that Bud Sealing cancel an all-star game in Arizona because of the immigration law.
Al Sharpton's on the you've got the owner of the Phoenix Suns running around saying, we're not gonna do this.
You've got a bunch of liberal sports writers suggesting the D backs, the baseball team be boycotted wherever they go.
I think sports needs to man up.
How's that, Rush?
Get liberalism out of it for crying out loud.
Take a look at the 70% of the people of Arizona support the law.
Does the the professional sports want to be associated and siding with illegals, lawbreakers?
See, but they they're uneducated.
They haven't, they're misguided, they haven't even read the law.
Doesn't care.
I don't care.
Ignorance is no excuse to me.
But if they haven't read the law, if they don't know what this is about now, they never will.
With this so much much attention being paid to it.
Well, I mean, what do they really think is going to happen?
This is I'll give you the perfect analogy.
This is no different than the Republicans supporting amnesty back in 2007, because they don't want to offend anybody, uh, and they hope to get these votes.
So you have the ownership of the Phoenix Suns, the Los Suns, uh, and and whoever, well, we don't want to offend a portion of our fan base, so we want to appear to be politically correct.
Uh we want to appear to be all inclusive and so forth.
Uh well, fine and dandy, but what happens when that contributes to the overall deterioration of the culture of a society?
I just I just think it's cowardice.
I'm sorry.
I think it's cowardice, pure and simple.
Thanks, Rush.
We have a soundbite, you bet I got a soundbite here, Steve Nash, a great player for the uh for the Phoenix Suns.
And he was on.
I I thought, by the way, ESPN was not for politics.
Something happened some years ago that I don't know, made me think that politics and ESPN are kind of like water and oil in the Gulf of Mexico.
They just don't mix.
But Steve Nash was on ESPN's Pardon the interruption with the famous uh nuclear and uh and and political analyst Tony Kornheiser.
Coinheiser said to Steve Nash, a lot of athletes try to steer clear of politics.
You seem to be embracing it.
Uh, do you speak for the whole team?
Do you think or just for yourself on this Los Sons thing?
I can never speak for the whole team, but our owner asked us if any of us had a problem wearing the jerseys, and and nobody did.
So I think we're pretty like-minded on this issue.
This league is very multicultural.
We have players from all over the world, myself, obviously being a foreigner, and many of my teammates uh players on the other teams.
Our communities are very multicultural, so I think we have to obviously find a different way to combat the issues that we face in our society, and I think that this is the wrong way to go about it.
To enforce American law.
Well, you know, to me, this is this is uh extremely sad, short-sighted.
It sounds wonderfully thoughtful.
It sounds wonderfully compassionate.
Um, so there are some like Ozzy Gijan, or Geon, the manager of the Chicago White Sox, Venezuela, said he will not go and participate in the All-Star game as a manager or coach if it's in Arizona.
Well, okay.
So we're supposed to change everything.
We're supposed to deal with American law by reacting to what Ozzie Gijsan of the Chicago White Sox says.
No.
If he doesn't like it, he doesn't let him not go.
Don't go.
Find and dance, don't go.
It's fine if you don't want to go.
But we're not gonna change federal law, state law just so you can show up at an all-star game.
This is Reno, it is a uh uh interesting thing about the intersection of politics and sports, which I thought was not supposed to happen.
But it uh it obviously is.
It's just the the bottom line here is it's cowardice that's running this cowardice disguised as supremacy, cowardice disguised as I'm better than you.
Cowardice disguised, I'm more open-minded than you.
Cowardice, uh disguised as I'm more uh uh worldly uh than you are.
I I I'm a better person than you.
I'm more tolerant than you are.
It's just cowardice.
Pure and simple.
And if it isn't cowardice, it's pure ideology.
Nothing mother, nothing other than political liberalism that's guiding the opinions on this, which is common and okay in politics, but tell us that.
You know, don't give us this superior I'm better than you are, multicultural garbage.
Just tell us you're a liberal, you disagree with the law, and you don't think that the jerseys ought to say sons because it offends you.
Don't hide behind holier than now, you're better than everybody else stuff.
It's the thing about liberals, they just can't be honest about who they are.
They have to always denigrate everybody else.
Well, we have to wear these Los Sons jerseys because there's so many racists in our state, and we have to battle it.
Sorry, doesn't fly here on the EIB network.
Back after this.
Hi, welcome back.
Great to have you, Rush Limbaugh on fire, enjoying every flame and smoldering ember.
Behind the golden EIB microphone, Sherry's berries, the testimonials continue to roll in.
These are the giant strawberries, hand dipped in chocolate.
Um no two really look alike.
They look like they've been painted.
What you will note when you see these is how huge they are.
And then when you bite into one, you'll realize you've never tasted a chocolate-covered strawberry like this.
They actually look painted.
They arrive at your door uh refrigerated, so you need to keep them in the refrigerator, uh, and you need to use them pretty quickly.
Great for Mother's Day, but you have dessert every day, so you can order these year round.
They're great at any time for any occasion, and it's easy.
You just go to RushBerries.com and you order a half dozen of them for 1999, free premium toppings with each order, or 10 bucks more and you get a dozen of them.
And you can do this every day of the year, or as many times as you want.
As I say, everybody has dessert.
Most people eat dessert every day.
A lot of people eat sweets every day, and you're not gonna find anything better than cherries berries.
You know, it's not often folks that I run around and I see something that I haven't seen before.
You know, I mean, I mean we've all had chocolate covered strawberries with champagne, but when I was presented my first box of Sherry's berries, I literally was a gog.
And I grabbed the box and I ran, I took them in a snerdly and said, would you look at this?
These people asking me if they think it would be okay to advertise on this program.
Yes.
Sherry's berries.
They're from Sacramento, my adopted hometown, RushBerries.com, or call them 866 Fruit Zero 2.
I really, you know, folks, I really thought my experience with the uh St. Louis Rams was that sports cannot be politicized.
These people, you know, Ozzy Ghijan and all these other people that don't want.
If you don't like playing in the United States, you don't like playing in Arizona, go back and play for Hugo Chavez and try to make the millions of dollars There that you make here.
You notice how everybody, folks, they're all for diversity as long as everybody thinks alike.
Liberals love diversity as long as everybody thinks the same thing.
Here is Steve from Parts Unknown in West Texas.
Welcome to the EIB network, sir.
Hello.
Greetings, Rush from the oil and gas fields of West Texas.
I think that if the Phoenix Sons are so into this, why don't we give amnesty to all the fans?
Free tickets, free t-shirts, all of the concessions are free, the beer, everything.
You know, goat whole hog on it.
You left out parking.
Oh, well, parking as well.
Just whatever.
Like I said, if they want to, you know, grand animal.
Well, by golly, let them take a look at the couple.
One Cinco de Mayo, amnesty for everybody that wants to come to the game until the seats are filled.
Well, heck.
In fact, you know what?
Phoenix Sons should also uh on this one day drop the requirement that people have to present their papers to get in.
No tickets.
No tickets.
Get in.
Just want to watch the game get in.
No papers necessary.
I think that'd be a great idea.
Listen to you and Lynn Woolley every day on the radio, and you guys really inspire me.
Thank you very much, sir.
Appreciate it.
Story I wanted to get to here before we have to uh we have to go.
This is from the uh UK telegraph, James Delling Paul.
James Delling Paul has read uh our book, the book by our official climatologist, uh Dr. Royce Spencer, the Great Global Warming Blunder, and Delling Paul.
He's they got an interesting take on Dr. Spencer's book.
CO2 has almost nothing to do with global warming.
Discovers top U.S. meteorologists.
The other night I had a nightmare in which a general election was approaching, and all three main competing parties had the same suicidal policy.
They all believed in this thing called the Big Bad Ferry.
They were convinced the only way to drive off the Big Bad Furry and her evil horge was by spending huge sums of taxpayer money.
Uh blah blah blah.
And then I woke up and I found what what what do we do?
How can we possibly stop the environmental and energy policy of our next government being based on what U.S. meteorologist Dr. Roy Spencer calls the worst case of mass hysteria the world has ever known.
Used to work at NASA, makes the point, CO2 has almost nothing to do with global warming.
Uh it's not quite that drastic, but it is a fabulous book, uh, written in lay terms by a scientist of great repute.
I mean, we just wouldn't name anybody here as our official climatologist, folks.
It's called The Great Global Warming Hoax.
It's at Amazon's Everywhere now.
Uh Great Global Warming Blunder, and it's by um our official climatologist, Dr. Roy Spencer, John in Fairfield, Connecticut.
Welcome to the program, sir.
Great to have you here.
Oh, Rush, it's such a pleasure talking to you.
Actually, Rush, I am a Democrat.
I am a black man.
No.
I am from the Caribbean.
You see.
But my problem is that I am also a conservative.
I can see where that'd be a problem for you.
And also, I am also a member of the Tea Party.
And um, this is a man of my friends are liberals.
Courage, ladies and gentlemen.
Yeah, you're your friends are liberals.
Oh, yes.
And I can identify which you that's why I decided to call today, um, to let you know that we're all going through this as long as we say that we are, as long as we are conservatives.
We become the enemy.
We are the enemy when it when we're uh we we actually believe in the foundation of this country.
That's why I came here.
You see, and I'm now being vilified.
I've lost a job recently, and I was told afterwards that um because I talk too much, you talk about all this kind of stuff.
It's infuriating.
We are you know, but you're you're right.
We are, people like you, are considered a greater threat to the country than this clown that almost blew up Times Square.
Look at how willing to bend over backwards they are to cast this guy as a family man from Connecticut.
Let's not have any backlash.
But they were so desirous that it was a Tea Party person that blew up that Times Square was going to, so they could discredit an entire group of patriotic Americans.
Glad to have you on our team, John.
Back after this.
I want to leave you here on the general theme of the program today with a great quote from that great general, George S. Patton.
George Patton said, among many other great things, if everybody's thinking alike, somebody isn't thinking.
And liberals love diversity of thoughts as long as everybody thinks the same thing.
Means none of them are thinking.
