What'd he say?
Ha!
How are you?
I am Rush Limboy.
You know that.
This EIB network, you know that.
Telephone numbers 800-282-2882.
You know that.
There are many new people tuning in every day who don't know that.
That's why we say it every day.
Not because I have a big ego.
Telephone number, even though I do.
800-282-2882.
If you want to be on the program, email address, lrushbow at EIBnet.com.
Now, one more thing about Saddam Hussein.
I love putting all this stuff in perspective because people have forgotten all this.
We talked about it at the time that it happened.
There was a reason besides spite that Saddam Hussein set all those oil wells in Kuwait on fire.
And another reason besides spite that he set all the pipelines and opened all the halls of the tankers.
He was upset at the Kuwaitis flooding the market with oil.
He wanted the price up.
He wanted to do something about the supply.
Saddam was, I mean, Saddam was much closer to Obama and the environmentalist wackos than anybody wants to admit because they want to do the same thing.
They want to limit supply.
They want to raise the price.
They want a lot less used for whatever reasons.
You know, save the planet, global warming.
So it's fascinating to me to point out to you people that the environmentalist wackos, this ought to not surprise anybody.
Environmentalist wackos simply chose the environment when the Soviet Union imploded.
It was the new home environmentalism was for displaced communists.
And it makes perfect sense that they would have more in common with a totalitarian dictator than they would with anybody in a democratic regime, democratic country.
And so Hussein was mad.
He was upset that Kuwaitis would not limit their supply of oil, cut back.
He wanted the price raised.
So puts the oil on fire.
In addition to spite.
Same, same reasons, same philosophy as the Democrat Party in this country and in the worldwide left.
All right.
Great to have you.
Great to have you here.
Ladies and gentlemen, to the audio soundbites.
I want to take you back to last Wednesday, May 26th.
On this program, I said this.
Look at the people now lining up with me.
Maybe not my name, but more and more people are using the word failure, incompetence, inexperience.
Where's Colin Powell?
And I'd like to ask, where is General Powell?
Why isn't General Powell being interviewed?
Obama was the man.
He was what is needed.
And Obama, or rather Powell, we were told, was the quintessentially perfect Republican candidate.
Where is the great, brilliant, brave, moderate Republican Colin Powell weighing in on this?
The man who said Americans wanted more government, the man who was so impressed with Obama, he threw the entire Republican Party and the country under the bus.
Colin Powell, who walked away from fellow moderate John McCain.
You know, I was attacked for questioning Powell's motives and loyalties back then and predicting Obama's failure was spun as somehow unpatriotic, as if it's unpatriotic to share wisdom regarding failed political philosophies, especially when combined with zero executive experience.
That has become disastrous.
That was Wednesday.
Wednesday, I said, where's Colin Powell?
Well, let's go to the audio tape.
He showed up Sunday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, four days later.
On a Wednesday, I said, where's General Powell?
Four days later, he shows up.
Candy Crowley, General Powell, you left when, when, wait, wait, wait.
We've got him out of order here.
Where's number four?
Ah, here it is.
It's Jake Tapper, ABC, sorry.
Jake Tapper said, as a former chairman of the Joyce of Staff, what do you make of this push and pull between the federal government and the states?
As chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and as Secretary of State and National Security Advisor, I have watched a number of these kinds of crises come and go.
I've seen hurricanes, tornadoes, riots in Los Angeles, the tsunami.
And in every instance, what I have sort of learned from all of these is that the national government, the federal government, the president has to get involved as quickly as possible.
And if you don't, then public opinion starts to drag you.
The media pushes you.
And so when something like this clearly is going to get beyond the capacity of whoever caused it, get beyond the capacity of local authorities, I think the federal government has to move in quickly and move in with, to use my favorite expression, decisive force to demonstrate that it's doing everything that it can do.
Lieutenant General Powell, I asked on Wednesday, where is he?
He shows up on Sunday, says he pops his head out, and I guess he saw his shadow predicted two more months of Obama failure.
He said, Obama's not doing enough here.
He's moved too slowly in asserting leadership in the Gulf oil response.
And the time has come for a comprehensive total attack on the problem, said General Powell.
Jake Tapper then said, well, you didn't see that from the regime in this case.
I think the president correctly said the other day that he'd been monitoring it, following it, and essentially been on top of it from the beginning.
But that impression was not conveyed to the American people.
And the comprehensive speech he gave the other day, I think he would have been better served and the nation would have been better served if he'd given it a few weeks earlier.
But I think the federal government now is fully engaged and it's become more than a problem of just stopping an oil spill.
It's an environmental problem, an economic problem, the welfare of the people in the Gulf region.
And how do we get it all cleaned up?
And how is it affecting people?
So it's more than BP and a hole in the ocean floor.
It is a major problem that can only be dealt with by the federal government, all the resources of the federal government.
And that's what the president is now doing.
No, he's not because the federal government can't do it.
They don't know the first thing about it.
We have evidence of that on display for the past six weeks.
That's the whole point here.
Obama hasn't the slightest clue.
Obama had a little press briefing today, not a presser.
He had a little press briefing today at his news conference or his appearance.
He specifically mentioned going after for possible criminal liability, not just BP, but Transocean and Halliburton.
And he sends that doofus Eric Holder down there.
He's talking to local and federal prosecutors down there.
That's what they're doing.
Your government, my government, our government's primary focus is lawsuits, trying to find out if there was any criminality and going after British Petroleum and going after Halliburton and going after Transocean.
As far as federal government taking ownership of the issue, I mean, you can go out there and you can be the face of it if you want, and you can try to be inspirational.
Obama doesn't know how to do that.
And you can try to make it look like you're on the case, but you can't do that when it traips off to Chicago on vacation.
And you can't do that when you're out shooting hoops while you're on vacation in Chicago.
Some of the most amazing pictures, by the way, of that vacation.
You know, folks, I am exercising all of the manners and restraint I can to refrain from commenting on some of the pictures I have seen of the vacation weekend, the First Family in Chicago.
I mean, I shouldn't have even brought it up because this is unfortunate.
It's sort of mean.
I'm teasing you and I can't tell you about it.
Well, I can't go there, Snerdley.
There's nothing to gain by going there.
Don't goad me.
Don't even try.
Don't go for it.
You're not going to get me to talk about this.
What diet?
Who's the special diet?
You mean for Michelle?
She's on a diet?
Oh, is she doing it?
I thought she was just doing that for everybody else.
She's on it too.
She's eating.
Well, I'd like to be on her diet if it's a healthy diet.
I'm just going to tell you, Snerdly, I don't care how much you goad me.
George W. H.W. Bush once said, wouldn't be prudent.
Wouldn't be prudent to go there.
Not going to go there.
I don't care how much.
All right, here's a question.
How can such a media-savvy president blow such a glorious opportunity as this thing in the Gulf?
Every day, first year, been on TV.
He decides to go into hibernation when this thing hits.
That is an interesting question.
On television, every day this thing hits, goes into hibernation.
It is, you know, 9-11 happening.
Remember, the Democrats running around.
Ah, just a shame this didn't happen.
Bill Clinton was present.
He had a real quiet crisis that he defined himself by.
They were a little jealous.
It happened with Bush.
So I guess, was it Malia, little girl, the daughter, is that her name?
Is it Malia?
It's M-A-H-L-I pronounced Malia.
So the president was in there shaving, scrape, scrape.
He looks like he shaved, what, twice a day?
I mean, no, twice a week.
Anyway, he's in there shaving, and Malia walks in.
Daddy, Daddy, did you plug the hole yet?
No, honey.
I'm still working hard on that.
But I am going to sue that hole.
You can be sure of that.
By the way, a programming note, in our one o'clock hour tomorrow Eastern Time, we're going to be talking for a half hour.
So to Andrew McCarthy, who has written a book, The Grand Jihad, how the Islam and the Left Sabotage America.
And it is especially timely given what's happening in Israel via this flotilla.
It really, the misreporting regarding the Israelis with this flotilla incident over the weekend, the Israelis and the Egyptians set up blockades to prevent more weapons from getting to Hamas in Gaza.
It was purely and simply that.
The Turkish government, which is now aggressively throwing in with Iran and even Hugo Chavez, led this provocation.
What's happened, you know, Turkey is in NATO.
I'm going to tell you a little story.
My troop visit in February of what would have been 2004, maybe 2005 to Afghanistan.
I remember we were in Kabul.
That was our base of operations.
And we went to the airport in Kabul.
supposed to fly out to Bagram Air Force.
No, no, no.
We're supposed to go someplace.
We were weathered in or we had a mechanical on the C-130 and we weren't able to leave.
And we were taken in by the commander, the NATO commander of the airport, into his office for a chat.
About 20 of us, U.S. Aid for International Development, Mary Madeline was there, a bunch of us.
And I remember this Turkish Air Force general who was in charge of the NATO air command there was one of the most impressive guys.
I really got along with him very well, traded business cards, email addresses, and so forth, even though I don't have business cards.
But he spoke English perfectly well, very proud of NATO and what they were doing in Afghanistan and so forth.
But he also talked a lot about his religion.
He gave us, treated us to many philosophies of the prophet, particularly regarding love and marriage.
I think his daughter, her son, was getting married soon.
He was going to be going home for it.
It was perfectly delightful.
Back in that time, Turkey was a Muslim country, but one of Israel's staunchest allies just a short number of years ago.
That's not the case now.
Islamists have taken over the Turkish government.
And this episode was with the flotilla of the blockade of Hamas and Gaza.
The Turkish government led this provocation.
And they've now thrown in with Iran.
They've thrown in with Hugo Chavez.
And the big issue here is what has happened to Turkey's government over the past several years as the Islamists have taken charge.
And I guarantee you, this NATO general from Turkey, who invited us all to Turkey, Istanbul, if we ever wanted to go, I guarantee you, this guy was not militant in any way, shape, matter, or form.
He was at war with militant jihadists leading the NATO Air Force or the NATO air division here out of Kabul, where the so-called international airport was.
And the alliances now that the Islamist Turkish government have not only threaten Israel, but they threaten us because they are still in NATO.
So you can almost look at it as the wolf's underneath the tent.
Wolfs gotten in the tent in a way.
And to understand this, and I'm going to be asking Andy specifically about this tomorrow so he can elaborate on it because he spent a lot of time writing this book, The Grand Jihad, How Islam and the Left Sabotage America.
But to understand this incident and many other things happening around the world regarding all this, you have to read Andy's book.
And Obama's obvious hostility toward Israel, we've now condemned.
I think I saw, maybe it's the United Nations condemned.
I think I've said United States condemns Israel and demands explanation.
I could be wrong.
I need to double check this.
It could have been the United Nations.
I might have read it quickly on the Chiron graphic and misseen it.
But there's no question his treatment of Benjamin Netanyahu.
I mean, Netanyahu comes to Washington.
He's in the Oval Office.
Doesn't get any photo sessions, certainly not a state dinner, doesn't even get lunch or dinner.
Obama says, this settlement plan, it ain't working.
I'm going to see my family for dinner.
You got three hours.
I want to see major changes when I come back.
That kind of treatment of an ally is not, we don't hear about that much in our American history.
Israel was being treated as the problem in the area.
And everybody talks about a nuclear-free Middle East.
What everybody's angling here for, what the Obama administration may not understand is, or they may understand it, makes it even worse, people are angling for an Israel or Jew-free. Middle East.
That's what they want.
They want an Israel-free Middle East.
So all of this, you know, Obama putting pressure on Israel the way he's treated Benjamin Ethan Yahoo, his public attempts at pacifying the Muslim world and now condemning Israel for this planned provocation has emboldened Israel's enemies and ours.
Go around the world and think, look at the campaign.
The Obama campaign.
The sea levels were going to begin to slow down.
They're going to stop rising.
The planet was going to heal.
We were going to reestablish America's image.
I don't care where you go.
We have a festering bloodbath.
North and South Korea about ready to go to war with each other.
This thing with Israel and Turkey, the Egyptians now involved, Hamas and Gaza.
The Iranians nuking up.
They got enough uranium for two bombs, it's now said.
In our own hemisphere, Hugo Chavez is running wild nationalizing things and trying to rabble-rouse the entire South American continent, anti-United States positions.
The Chaikoms own all of our debt or a lot of it.
The Russians are in bed with a lot of our enemies.
It's just, it's, I mean, everything that was supposed to be utopia now is fast on the way to hell.
And it's understandable if you realize that we have an administration that hasn't the foggiest idea about reality of any of this.
They have their theories that they have been taught and that they have taught and that they have believed all of their young years.
United States is the problem in the world.
Our military is the focus of evil.
We have mistreated the poor peoples of the world, stolen their resources, enriched ourselves.
We've created poverty.
We've created terrorism.
We're responsible for racism, sexism, bigotry, homophobia, all of this.
This is what Obama's people believe.
And of course, our enemies are just ready to jump on that bandwagon as quickly as they can.
Yeah, you're right.
And Obama, all I got to go out and say, if I just go out and say what our enemies want to hear, they'll turn around and respect me and like us.
And that's not how it works.
If you go out and say what your enemies want to hear, they just think you are a wolf in sheep's clothing.
You are weak.
You are a pansy.
You are waiting to be had.
It is music to their ears.
I don't care if you're talking about Mahmoud Ahmadine Zad, if you're talking about Putin, Hugo Hugo Chavez, Kim Jong-il, I don't care who it is, when they hear Barack Obama apologizing for and criticizing his own country, they love it.
They absolutely love it.
Isn't it striking how often the things the president says about this country are similar to what our enemies say about it?
It's amazing to go back to the campaign of 2008 and listen to some of the things that Mahmoud Ahmedine Zad was saying about this country compared to Democrats and what they were saying about it.
You know, Mahmoud Ahmadine Zad, what he's saying about Bush, what he's saying about the war in Iraq, was no different than what any Democrat, from John Kerry, who served in Vietnam, by the way, to Jay Rockefeller, to Nancy Pelosi, to Diane Feinstein, you name it, John Murthy.
What are they all saying about the United States and Bush and Iraq?
And they weren't even embarrassed by it.
Our Democrats weren't.
But that's not even the worst of the situation.
There's something else that's really infuriating me regarding our relationship with Israel.
Hey, most dangerous man in America.
Why do they call me that?
Because it's true.
Welcome back.
800-282-2882.
It was the United Nations.
It was not the U.S.
I misread the Chiron graphic.
It was an MSNBC.
They're not in high definition.
They show up very small on the screen here for some reason.
But the United States has not condemned Israel.
The United Nations did.
Now, about Turkey, the Turkish group behind this flotilla is called the Turkish Foundation for Human Rights and Freedom and Humanitarian Relief, or the IH.
They want to overthrow the Turkish government and impose Sharia law in Turkey.
Now, the Turkish government has gotten more and more Islamist, but the IHH wants them to go much farther than they have.
The Turkish military is what's keeping them sane, quote unquote, within limits.
The IHH, by the way, this Turkish group was behind the Millennium Bomber in 2000.
So that's who it is that sponsored this so-called peaceful humanitarian flotilla that got into the contrast pomp with Israel.
Now, here's something that's not going, or not getting enough mention.
It hit the news wires a couple days ago.
Washington's unprecedented backing for a UN resolution for a nuclear-free Middle East that singles out Israel has both angered and deeply worried the Jewish state, although officials are cagey about openly criticizing their biggest ally.
This is the French news agency, by the way.
The resolution adopted by the UN on Friday calls on Israel to join the nonproliferation treaty and urges it to open its facilities to inspection.
It also calls for a regional conference in 2012 to advance the goal of a nuclear-free Middle East.
Now, if the IAEA is out there saying that Ahmedine Zad and the Iranians have enough plutonium for two nuclear bombs, you have to figure that they have enough for 20.
And yet here's the focus on Israel at the United Nations.
Israel, widely believed to be the only nuclear power in the Middle East with around 200 warheads, but they have maintained a policy of deliberate ambiguity about their capabilities since the mid-1990s.
Now, the UN document, which singles out Israel but makes no mention of Iran's nuclear program, drew a furious reaction from Israel, who decried it as deeply flawed and hypocritical.
But it was U.S. backing, American backing for this resolution, which has caused the most consternation among Israeli officials and commentators.
They interpret the move as a resounding slap at the face, which has dealt a very public blow to Israel's long-accepted policy of nuclear ambiguity.
Publicly, the Israeli government has not criticized the U.S. position, but privately, officials expressed deep disappointment over the resolution, which Washington backed despite intensive Israeli efforts to block it.
So Israel is supposedly an ally.
Now, you tack this on to this flotilla PR bonanza for Hamas, Gaza, the Palestinians, you name it, Islamists.
You tack this on to win.
You've got a major problem.
Here's the United States undercutting its own ally at the UN.
Here's Israel.
Its policy on whether or not they have nukes is ambiguous.
They have never confirmed it.
So Egypt comes up with, we need a non-proliferation treaty.
Israel's got to send a nuclear-free Middle East.
U.S. says, yep, 2012, we want this.
Which is forcing Israel's hand to admit that they do or don't have them.
And Iran's not even mentioned here.
Now, you add this to all this other stuff.
And what I was saying moments ago, sending a message to our enemies that it's okay to attack Israel because we are not going to back them up.
And this is unheard of in our modern-day relationship with Israel.
You know, this, you remember how Obama decided we needed to announce our own nuclear stockpiles and we're going to reduce them and so forth?
That was all, I'm sure, a setting up of this push to force Israel to reveal their nuclear arsenal and the details there.
Because otherwise, why announce our stockpile?
It made no difference.
Everybody knows we've got nukes.
Everybody knows we've got enough nukes to nuke everybody else and still survive.
So Obama, yep, we're going to get rid of our nukes.
We're going to plug the hole.
We're going to make sure that we have this agreement to the Russians.
Why do this?
You know, this is putting pressure on the Israelis to do the thing, to make them come clean with the existence or non-existence of their nuclear capability.
They say that one of the hallmarks, one of the more salient hallmarks of a psychopath is his inability to tell his friends from his enemies.
That is one the biggest, you can ask Dr. Krauthammer, a psychiatrist, about that.
One of the more salient hallmarks of a psychopath is somebody and his inability to distinguish his friends from his enemies.
And I, you know, this is just hard to comprehend here, the way we're treating Israel in this situation.
Well, the way we've been treating Israel since this administration, this regime, was immaculated.
We've never seen it before.
And of course, I do care about motive.
You know, a lot of commentators say, well, motive's not our concern here.
We simply report the facts.
You decide, we report whatever.
Motive matters to me.
Ask any lawyer going into trial on motive.
You have to have it.
You hope you have it.
It's one of the great tools in establishing guilt.
My friends at Carbonite plaudits keep rolling in here.
The following was posted at Carbonite's Facebook page by an obviously very intelligent person.
He said he heard about Carbonite from me.
My computer crashed the other day.
No beating my head on the desk.
No worries.
I have carbonite.
It was all backed up.
Thanks.
You know, some people in town over the weekend, a guy, one of the guys visiting said, he just got a Mac, he just got a laptop, and he's learned to put all his pictures and stuff on it.
He said, what would you suggest is the best way to back this up?
And I said, well, the safest way to back this up is off-site so that if somebody steals your computer, it doesn't matter.
So if you have a house fire where a computer is or something happens, you don't lose your data.
I mean, you could back it up to an external hard drive as a secondary backup, but you're going to have to put the external hard drive somewhere off-site too if you really want to make it secure.
Somebody can just steal that or it could get destroyed in a fire.
So I suggested carbon.
He said, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what it was.
Like, you keep talking about carbonite.
Yeah, I'm going to do that.
And a lot of people are doing that.
And it's amazing the number of people doing it, how many times their computers are crashing.
The interesting thing about these emails I'm getting is all these people whose computers are having problems.
Probably Windows.
Don't know.
But they're still having problems.
I'm getting all these emails from people who are having no problems restoring their files, and they're damn happy they're able to.
Carbonite backs up every time you're connected to the internet in the background.
You never notice it.
It'll automatically happen, whether you're using a PC or a Mac.
An unlimited backup is just $55.
I told this, what's it going to cost?
He said, well, if you use my name, probably $40 or $50 a year.
Is that all?
Yeah, I said, it's all.
So he signed up.
And if you use the offer code Rush, start your free 15-day trial at Carbonite, and you'll also get two free months if you decide to buy.
So you can't afford not to have this.
Carbonite, back it up.
Get it back.
Carbonite.com offer code Rush.
Hewlett Packard, Hewlett-Packard to cut 9,000 jobs.
Palo Alto, California.
Hewlett-Packard said today I'm going to cut about 9,000 jobs and take $1 billion in charges over three years as it creates fully automated commercial data centers.
The Palo Alto, California company said that it'll invest $1 billion in its enterprise services unit over a multi-year period.
The company said the job cuts will be the result of productivity gains and automation.
The company said it'll replace about 6,000 of the jobs to boost its global sales and delivery staff.
So somebody explain to me how this stimulus thing is working.
I really want somebody that can do that to tell me because here we have 9,000 more people who will not be paying taxes that support public sector jobs like cops and teachers.
Somebody tell me about this recovery.
And this governor of Arizona, Jan Brewer, this is one tough lady.
L.A. Times.
Arizona Governor Jan Brewer abruptly suspends state's attorney general from illegal immigrant law defense.
A sudden new twist in the ongoing rhetorical and legal struggle.
Late Friday night as the Memorial Day weekend began, the Governor Jan Brewer suspended the state's Democrat Attorney General from defending the new law in upcoming legal challenges.
The measure known as SB 1070 due to take effect this summer, among other things, allows local police under federal guidelines to check blah, blah, blah.
The governor's abrupt action against Terry Goddard, her likely Democrat opponent in this fall's governor's race came after months of disputes between the two at the end of a long day of legal maneuvering in both Arizona and the nation's capital.
Goddard's vocally opposed the measure, so much so the legislature gave the governor advance authority to hire outside legal counsel.
So the State of the Journey Attorney General has been canned.
He's been suspended from attacking the law.
Wow.
I mean, Sarah Palin, Jan Brewer, Michelle Bachman, who else?
Marcia Blackburn.
Look at where the gonads are in this party.
Well, Chris Christie, yeah.
I don't mean to dislike Chris Christie.
I mentioned him earlier.
But, man, Connie in Claremont, California.
Great to have you on the EIB network.
Hi.
Trush, it's great to talk to the most dangerous man in America.
Thank you very much.
My husband and I were just listening to you describe all this bad press that Obama is getting over this oil spill.
And given the fact that they don't know much about anything else, but they are pretty politically smart, do you think that he is allowing this bad press to continue and he's allowing this disaster to get to the crisis point where there's a public outcry and takes over the oil companies.
No, he didn't have an excuse to take him over.
If he wants to take him over, he'll do it sometime.
This is not making him look competent.
The last person anybody wants in charge of the oil companies right now is Obama.
The way he's playing this, I mean, his buddies in the media are saying he looks incompetent.
They're saying he looks like a stooge, like a tool.
He's not even what he's doing.
Obama couldn't plug the hole if he wanted to, and there's no way he could keep the oil gushing if he wanted to.
There's nobody who doesn't want to plug the hole.
There's not a single person out.
There may be some wackos who enjoy this.
There may be some environmentalist wackos who enjoy this because they think it's going to help them in their PR case against oil in the first place.
But there's nobody involved here with any sense that doesn't want to stop this leak.
Obama, there's nothing for Obama to gain but this thing happening, going on and on and on, especially now when he's taking charge of it and it keeps happening.
Now, you know, he made a big gamble the other day with his press conference.
If the top-kill method had worked, then he'd be able to lay claim to something.
But that was never in the cards because the top-kill method had been brought to a screeching halt the night before.
We were all deceived.
The top-kill method was not even going on when Obama did his press conference was talking about how the likelihood of success here is between 60 and 70%.
You know, I just, I don't think this is.
He didn't start the leak.
He's not keeping it going.
He really is impotent here regarding this.
There's nothing he can do.
He can stand there and order people around.
He can send the attorney general down there threatening suits, criminal activity, and all that.
But he's not doing one thing oriented towards stopping the leak because there's nothing he can do, which is the only fair assessment.
The only reason people are harping on him about it is because he said, this is the day where the sea levels will stop their rise.
This is the day where the earth begins to heal.
He set himself up as a messiah.
He set himself up as Mr. Competent.
He was going to change all these horrible things that Bush had done.
You can change a direction of the country.
And so when you set yourself up as a Messiah, you better be able to turn water into wine.
And he can't do it.
Here's Pete in Ocala, Florida.
Welcome to the EIB network, sir.
Hello.
The Democrat Party is like your cat Pumpkin, and Barack Obama's like the puppy Abby.
Okay.
For those of you just tuning in, I have a cat, 13 years old, an Abyssinian named Punkin.
We just got a little puppy that's now a one-year-old English sheep dog named Abby.
What's the correlation?
Okay, Pumpkin was in the right place at the right time.
I mean, she had an idyllic lifestyle.
Her future was nothing but blue sky and sunshine.
She lived on your estate.
And then along comes Abby, this yapping, barking little puppy, and the dog upset the household routine.
And the Democrats, they had motivated their constituents.
They assembled a coalition.
The media handed them the 2008 election, so they had it made.
But Obama came along.
He's attractive and cuddly, but he's also inexperienced and can't focus.
So he's kind of like Abby.
He's kind of barking, barking, barking, and just upsetting everything.
And we're going to see the effects in 2010.
No, no, but you know, you put it that way.
I can see some credence here.
You got my cat owned the house for 13 years.
Whatever happened, the cat ran it.
And one day, this miniature lion shows up and starts running around barking, trying to play, and upsets the whole cat's world.
They are peacefully coexisting now, folks.
But I got to tell you Abby has become so possessive.
If I don't have time to do that, remind me to tell the story tomorrow.
This is hilarious.
I've even got some video to show you, but I don't dare.
But I can't show you.
Shouldn't tease you with it.
But it's a funny story.
Now, if I give Catherine a hug sitting on a couch in a room, that dog attacks me.
I mean, not viciously, but wants to get in on the action, starts barking.
I got the iPhone video of this.
And then I'll leave, and the dog will follow me.
Keep barking at me.
You leave my mother alone.
It's the funniest thing you've ever seen.
And we'll see you tomorrow.
