Time Text
The views express been the host on this show, documented to be almost always right.
99.6% of the time.
You can't get much closer to perfection than that.
Telephone number if you want to be on the program, 800 282-2882, the email address L Rushbaugh at EIB net.com.
So my fat vois on Michael Steele has been released, has been issued.
And that is, I essentially pass this decision on to General Colin Powell, said to be the ideal Republican and Republican leader in this day and age.
Let him decide.
Although I'm going to share with you some more thoughts on this.
Regardless.
As I look at this, I'm looking at media and the Democrats, it seems to me, folks, these critics have been so harsh about Steele's remarks.
If I didn't know better, I'd say it almost sounds like they want him to fail.
It seems to me these people are eager to be able to claim Michael Steele's scalp.
They want him to fail.
Now, which is which is more preposterous here.
Here's what Steele said.
Afghanistan is a war of Obama's choosing and not something the U.S. had actively prosecuted or wanted to engage in.
He's half right about this, and I still so half wrong.
More in a minute.
Or here is Vice President Joe Bight Me, who said the American people will see President Obama's Iraq policy as a success when the combat mission ends on schedule on August 31st.
Bite me said the administration, quote, will be able to point to and say, We told you what we're going to do, and we did it.
They're going to take a look and they see if the president kept his promise getting troops home, and I'll give them more confidence in the foreign policy, he said.
Now, that is clearly delusional.
What Bite Me said is deranged.
Bite me, Biden, and the rest of the Democrats actively sought out defeat in Iraq.
And well, we all know them.
They actively spoke out against the policy of General Petraeus, the surge.
Now they're claiming credit for it.
Our Iraq policy.
Now, as for whether or not Steele should resign, as I say, that's now up to General Powell.
I have issued my fatwa, and I pass the baton to him.
But let me go a little further with it.
Do I do I agree with his comment?
I said he was half right, but he's also half wrong.
We were attacked by Al Qaeda.
They were based in Afghanistan.
Afghanistan was given, well, the Taliban gave safe safe haven to Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan.
This is indisputable.
If anything, we should have pounded the hell out of this enemy with nearly everything we had well before now.
But that doesn't appear to be our plan.
We don't fight wars the way we used to in this country.
That is what it is.
But I'll tell you what I get tired of.
I get tired of people trying to be the first to issue statements or go on the air demanding resignations.
Not because something these people have done, but because of what they mistakenly said or said in passing.
There seems to be a mad dash to the microphones and cameras.
Here is eye.
Here it quit.
Get him out of there.
I know words have consequences, but for crying out loud, so to actions.
I've watched over the weekend the spectacle of Obama and Bite Me and Bill Clinton praising Robert Byrd, saying, Yeah, he had to join the Klan after all he had to get elected.
They're praising Robert Byrd as if he was the great civil rights leader of our time.
Clinton even referred to Byrd's involvement in the Klan as a passing youthful event.
But the fact is Byrd was a segregationist leader for a good part of his early Senate career.
He helped lead the filibuster of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, not because of constitutional concerns, but because he was a segregationist.
I didn't hear any criticism of this from too many circles.
Certainly not the media and the liberals.
Yet there's Obama heaping praise on the guy, as did uh bite me and Clinton.
Now these are leaders of the Democrat Party.
Should they resign?
I mean, you look at what they they have rewritten history about one of this nation's leading segregationists who led a filibuster against their most prized legislative accomplishment, the Civil Rights Act, and they're out there praising the guy.
And telling us, well, we need to look past it.
You know, he spent the rest of his life trying to make up for this.
He had to get elected, Clinton said.
Yeah, he had to get elected.
He comes from the hollows in the hills of West Virginia.
And wink wink, we all know who was in the hollows and hills.
Guys in the white robes burning crosses.
That's what Clinton said.
And Byrd had to be one of those guys if he hoped to get elected.
You want to compare this to Michael Steele.
Anybody demanding Obama resigned?
Anybody demanding bite me resign?
Anybody demanding Clinton take it back?
Or explaining himself?
What bothers me always has bothered me is a double standard.
It's actually worse than a double standard.
Basically, liberals and Democrats can say or do virtually anything.
I remember when Harry Reid, this was last late fall or winter, Harry Reid talk about Obama is a really great guy.
He can speak with that Negro dialect when he wants to.
Or he can avoid the Negro dialect, depending on his audience.
And I happen to mention this to a well-known media figure who had not heard it, who's liberal.
And the well-known media figure, well, of course Harry Reed didn't mean.
What do you mean, of course Harry Reed didn't mean?
Let me say it.
Are you going to give me the benefit of the of course Limbaugh didn't really mean, and Obama was a clean articulate like a Joe Biden really didn't mean what he said with clean, finally, articulate, finally, black guy at the head of our party.
Oh, clearly he didn't mean it.
They can say whatever they want.
They can do whatever they want.
They can filibuster civil rights legislation.
They can vote against people for the Supreme Court simply because they're black.
And they're excused.
As long as they support the left-wing agenda.
As long as they are loyal to leftist agenda items, they are excused for the most part.
There are exceptions, and that is even if you are loyal to the leftist agenda and you happen to be black, they will undercut you in the Democrat Party, i.e., David Patterson, i.e., Carl McCall, i.e.
this poor guy in South Carolina.
And yet, somehow, Michael Steele's gotta go.
To give you another example.
The beloved FDR was responsible for the internment of 110,000 Japanese Americans.
Last week, liberal professors once again rated FDR, our greatest president.
Not George Washington, who led the revolution and served as a shining example for all future presidents, not Lincoln, the great emancipator who saved the nation.
Oh no, no, FDR is the greatest president ever.
His racial racist attitudes were ignored.
Same I might add about Woodrow Wilson, who was clearly a racist.
But he was full of that left-wing liberal agenda, man.
He pushed it, so we'll forgive all these other little things.
But I resist these demands for resignations.
I did with Trent Lott.
What the point?
Trent Lott's gone.
He had to quit.
After apologizing 25,000 times, he still had to go.
I wish people were as motivated and angry about Elena Kagan, frankly, as they are about Michael Steele, who in the big scheme of things is inconsequential.
Alena Kagan is not inconsequential.
She's about to get a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court, where she will do incredible damage to this nation.
Yet are the same people calling for Steele's resignation, demanding Republicans of the Senate lead a filibuster to stop her.
Nope.
Why not?
Steele doesn't speak for all conservatives and Republicans, obviously, speaks for himself.
But Kagan is going to spend the rest of her life destroying what we believe in if she's not stopped.
That's her mission.
She's an Obama rubber stamp.
So yeah, Steele says things From time to time I disagree with.
Sometimes he says things are even odd.
But the center of the universe is not the RNC.
It's right here.
The excellence in broadcasting network.
What Steele said is not worth the attention that it's received.
It's getting it only because the Democrats would love to write the story that Republicans fired a black guy.
That's what they want.
The head of the RNC is not the Republican leader.
He's not the conservative leader.
That's me.
He is the RNC leader.
Members of the Republican National Committee will decide his fate.
His term perspires in January.
He's probably gone.
But that's up to them.
But all of you out there demanding Steele's ouster.
How about demanding a filibuster of Elena Kagan at the same time?
At least until September, so we can take the time to educate the American people as to who this woman is.
Beyond that, and that is my official FET law.
I now pass the baton for the ultimate decision of Michael Steele's fate to the magisterial General Colin Powell.
Go ask him.
In fact, I'm looking.
I can't wait for the soundbite.
General Powell, what's your reaction to Limbaugh saying that you need to decide the fate of Michael Steele?
Okay, we're back.
It's Rush Limbaugh, the EIB Network, and the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies, the oldest and the largest free education institution known to exist in the free or oppressed worlds.
No graduates, no degrees.
The learning never stops.
Nobody's even asked her any softball questions.
I mean, that's how bad it has been.
Maybe they'll ask Kagan what to do about Michael Steele.
Except they're through asking Kagan questions.
They didn't even ask her one sophomore question.
That's how lame it was.
Now the fact that I am allowing General Colin Powell to decide Steele's fate shows my leadership skills.
It shows that I can delegate.
I mean, it's very important in a leader, and it also shows that I am nothing like our teleprompter.
If I were like Obama, I would appoint a commission to report back to me by the end of the year after the elections on what to do about Michael Steele.
And I would pick as members for my commission people who never heard of him nor ever heard of the Republican National Committee.
At least that's what I would say.
Now let's see.
All of Washington was paralyzed, waiting for me to issue my fatwa on Michael Steele.
Let's let's see now if the media carries all of my comment, including my damning criticism of Liberal Democrats Byrd, Obama, bite me, Clinton.
And by the way, speaking of Clinton, I remind you again, let's not forget who his mentor was, the segregationist J. William Fulbright, Senator from Arkansas.
That's Clinton's self-professed mentor.
The U.S. Justice Department filing a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of Arizona's new law targeting illegal immigrants, setting the stage for a clash between the federal government and Arizona over the nation's toughest immigration crackdown.
Which essentially, if you if you strip this bear, the Obama Justice Department will be suing the state of Arizona for implementing the federal government's own law.
So essentially, Obama ought to sue himself.
Holder ought to file suit against himself over this.
Instead of wasting our time filing suit against Arizona, the planned lawsuit was confirmed to the AP by a Justice Department official with knowledge of the plans.
The official didn't want to be identified.
He's a member of the Black Panther Party, Philadelphia.
The official did not want to be identified as a member of the Black Panther Party, but we know it was one of those guys before a public announcement was planned for later today.
The lawsuit will argue that Arizona's new measure requiring state and local cops to question and possibly arrest illegal immigrants during the enforcement of other laws usurps federal authority.
Whoa.
Okay.
Riverdale, Riverdale, New York.
Adam, as we go back to the phones, you're up, sir.
Great to have you on the Rush Limbaugh program.
Hi.
Hi, Rush.
It's good to reach you today.
Thank you, sir.
Yeah, you know, I'm very distressed because I'm completely shocked that there isn't as much of a mass, mass rebellion against Obama over his economic policies that I thought there would be if you go back months with the uh the health care.
Well, there's a reason for this.
There is a reason for it.
Yes.
The people who generally protest bad economic circumstances are being taken care of.
The unions, the teachers, the unions, the teachers, the public employee unions, the teachers, the people that do not work, uh, the people who are not trying to find jobs.
They're being taken care of.
There's no reason for the protest.
The rest of us, that's normally not what we do.
But there is a pretty large protest movement taking place, and you will see it in November's called the Tea Party movement.
There's no doubt in my mind that in that in November the Republicans will win both houses of Congress.
Um I I would just like to see more Senate Republicans get more angry and aggressive at Obama and really get on the TV and really really like tell exactly what Obama's doing.
Maybe they will as soon as they uh they get the uh await word from General Powell on what to do about Michael Steele.
Right.
Uh when we clear the decks of that controversy, and maybe we can get to Obama and his economic policies.
Well, I I just wanted to say that I I always liked Ronald Reagan a lot and I voted for him, but now I consider him the Messiah.
I've been watching documentaries on him, and if there was ever a president that really cared about Americans in production, it was him.
Isn't that amazing?
Yeah.
I mean, Reagan gets greater and greater.
He sure does.
As you go back and relive his presidency, his speeches.
Yeah.
It's like anything else.
When you're alive when things are taking place, they're your moment.
It's it's um things are going by pretty fast.
Yeah.
You look back on him after some time's gone by and you go, wow, the man was really great.
And uh I just want to say one more thing.
Uh very very briefly.
I mean, um, if you look back even at a president like Lyndon Johnson, I mean, I know he was a tremendous liberal and he gave all the federal money and all that, but at least he cut taxes.
Right?
Uh I mean he was he he wasn't really No, I think you mean JFK.
But JFK.
JFK cut taxes.
Uh Lyndon Johnson.
No, did not cut taxes.
Oh, I I thought uh That's like saying Walter Cronkite did objective news.
It didn't happen.
Oh, okay.
I I thought Kennedy um and Johnson both pushed it through of the tax cuts.
But I guess it was Kennedy.
Well, Johnson might have gotten the bowl.
I don't know, but but Kennedy finished it off if Johnson did.
Well, these men were capitalists, were they not?
Kennedy and Johnson.
Uh uh Kennedy's father was.
Yes.
Uh and Johnson.
Yeah, you John.
No, I mean, I for some reason I thought that most of the presidents, or practically all of them were underneath it all capitalists.
This is the first one that's like a castro Castro of everything.
Look at that that's true.
The the the the Johnson Johnson was the first of the thugs.
Yeah.
Um Johnson could have taught Mayor Daly a few things, and may have.
I'm talking about the original mayor Daly, not not not the sun.
But you're right.
I mean, this is this is the first president who has an active animus against a private sector.
This is the first one.
We've never elected a president before who has an agenda that is aimed at punishing, specifically harming the people who work in the private sector, which is where genuine legitimate economic growth takes place.
So uh look, I appreciate the call out there, Adam.
I really do.
Uh Annette in Highland, Illinois.
Great to have you on the EIB network.
Welcome.
Yes, sir.
Thank you for taking my call.
I'm a third-time caller, and I'm here in the state that's terminally taxed, Illinois.
And uh, I told your call screener that I had this epiphany this weekend.
Uh I was reading about Michael Steele and I was reading about some congressman or senator who wanted to tax uh internet purchases.
And I got really upset, and then all of a sudden it dawned on me that we have 19 weeks left to go before November.
And I started praying that the Democrats tax everything they can between now and November.
Because I think people will get fed up.
And uh, you know, I know voters who are turning.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
I understand what you're saying.
But if they do this, you should know that whatever tax increases that they authorize pass in a law, whatever, between now and November will not be implemented until January.
And that will it will be.
I mean, I know what your theory is, and it's a good one.
Oh, what the hell?
Give me, give me some by 23.
I just told him to forget it.
But I'm gonna play a sound by 23.
From the um the oval R of us today, a White House meeting between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and uh President Obama, who says in this bite, and this is a 180 for Obama, that our bond with Israel is unbreakable.
I just completed uh an excellent one-on-one discussion uh with Prime Minister Netanyahu, and I want to welcome him back to the White House.
The bond between the United States and Israel is unbreakable.
Uh it encompasses our national security interests, our strategic interests, uh, but most importantly, uh the bond of two democracies who share a common set of values.
I couldn't believe this when I heard this.
This is not what Obama believes.
Now, if he if if he means it now, if he means that our bond with Israel is unbreakable, it means it's because he's learned it's unbreakable, because he tried to break it this past spring.
You remember that?
I mean, Netanyahu and his contingent are at the White House, and uh and bite me had just been in Israel, and the Israelis announced a continuation of the building of settlements, and bite me and Obama consider this a personal insult and affront.
So have Netanyahu in the Oval Office, Obama gives him a list of things that demands he has to make, is I'm leaving.
I'm going to have dinner with my family and I get back here, and you better have made these changes.
So Netanyahu and his gang go into the one some room in the White House.
They don't even use the phones because they think Obama might be bugging them, and they try they leave.
And then the flotilla thing happens, and we find out that the Iranians are behind that.
We find out that Code Pink and a bunch of American leftist operations are behind this flotilla business.
We got Turkey out there demanding that Israel apologize for defending itself.
And all of a sudden, here's Obama saying we have an unbreakable bond with Israel.
And the special bond here.
It's uh national security interest strategic interests.
The bond of two democracies who share a common set of values.
That's new.
I'm gonna folks, I'm gonna tell you that Rashid Khalili, who's responsible for Obama's anti-Israeli views, is probably going, what the hell happened here?
He's ready to sell Israel down the river, and now all of a sudden he's in bed with them.
Well, what's happened here is a political calculation.
Obama tried to break the bond with Israel.
It didn't work.
American people don't want the bond with Israel broken.
And so now it's time to make nice with Netanyahu.
The question is, how much of this is genuine?
Versus how much of it was just for the cameras and the microphones from the political.
A couple days ago, danger for Democrats as economy slows.
President Obama, the Democrats hit into the summer campaign season with the economy slowing, unemployment flirting with double digits, and few options for a quick fix.
The stimulus is winding down right when the Democrats need it most.
Just...
It's not winding down.
Only 48% of the stimulus has been spent.
What ought to be patently obvious to people is the stimulus was not about creating jobs.
We've lost eight million jobs.
We've lost nearly four million jobs since Obama signed the stimulus.
It was never about creating jobs.
Politico says, yeah, it's that kind of year.
The Democrats desperately need to show midterm voters that they're doing something to create jobs.
The problem is their president's not doing anything but destroying them.
Republicans are ready to pounce, blasting the Democrats as free spending budget busters.
Polls show that voters are listening, nervous in government spending about government spending, and ballooning deficits after Obama's barrage of bailouts, stimulus, and health rare health care reform.
They spent $800 billion, and now they need to show they're doing something.
Actually, as we all know, there have been two or three stimuli, more than 800, try a trillion.
They've spent minimum a trillion on job creation.
And now they need something to show for it.
The only thing that's gonna work a show for it is job creation, and we just had the story earlier that middle class and large businesses are holding off because they don't know what the circumstances are gonna be.
Given Obama's tax increases, health care and the like come January.
The political problem for the Democrats, a spurred of fierce philosophical debate inside the party over what's the best medicine for the economy.
Bigger spending or cutting deficits.
Liberals are clamoring for more money to save the economy.
Centrists are arguing there's no more money to give in the face of trillion plus dollar deficits.
Still really believe Well, Paul Krugman does.
Paul Krugman from the New York Times.
I don't know why anybody gives and pays him.
Grab soundbite number twelve.
This is Sunday morning on ABC's this week.
Well, I say, why is anybody giving me the credence here?
I'm gonna play the soundbite.
We're gonna idiot am I. What do we need to do, Paul?
We've spent a trillion dollars on any new jobs.
The Europeans are out there cutting back.
They're going austere, they're gonna cut taxes, they're gonna reduce spending.
What do we need to do, Paul?
You got all the answers, Paul.
What do we need to do?
More stimulus.
I mean, we we had you know right from the beginning.
You know, luckily some of us have a track record.
Right from the beginning, January, February of 2009, looking at the scale of the crisis, we said this program, although it sounds like a lot of money, seven or eight hundred billion dollars, is actually not enough that you need something bigger.
This is a pretty grim situation.
We really should be going in for another stimulus program, which has a chance of approximately minus five percent of getting through Congress right now.
Yeah.
We need more of what has created the problems.
That's leftist agenda thinking.
In the meantime, are you tired of waiting for spending to rebound on its own?
If you're a retailer, if you're in the private sector, if you have a retail business, are you tired of waiting for people to start spending money?
If you are, other retailers are doing things you should take note of.
Retailers are taking matters into their own hands.
Stores like Sam's Club, Target, Toys R Us, Staples, and the Office Depot, as Obama would pronounce it, are offering unconventional promotions meant not only to attract visitors to stores, but to get them feeling profligate.
Walmart's Sam's Club is introducing a program in which it facilitates loans for shoppers of up to 25 grand backed by the small business administration.
Target will give its credit card holders 5% discounts.
Toys are us, instituting a holiday fund program where it adds to shoppers' savings, staples and office depot, as Obama would pronounce it, are giving away office products for a penny or at no cost.
The banks are not lending money, so retailers are essentially going to start loaning consumers money.
They're not gonna sit out there and continue to take it in the shorts.
If Obama will not stimulate their sector, they're gonna stimulate it themselves.
Wait for a federal law say you can't do this.
Wait for an executive, or you can't do it, you can't.
Only banks can give loans, and we're in charge of the banks, and you're not a bank, so you can't loan anybody any money.
Don't be surprised.
They don't want private sector economic growth.
They don't want it yet.
Not in the regime.
Joyce in Atlanta.
I'm glad you called.
You're next on the EIB network.
Hey, Rush, I am so excited to be talking to you.
Um I wanted to say the comment earlier made by um one of the media people about why are we even listening to Rush Limbaugh, who is not an elected official anyway, that's what my comment is about.
And what I would like to say is after writing my representatives, after cleaning their offices, after yelling and screaming, and them voting total opposite of what I wanted them to vote anyway.
I'm glad that you're my conservative mouthpiece because they hear you.
They're not listening to me.
They're not listening to what I, you know, what I want and what I think's best for my family or my conservative views.
So if, you know, you're my conservative mouthpiece, and that's how they see it, then I'm proud of it.
Thank you so much.
You have made my day.
And that's actually well thought out.
That's well said.
Well, it's very frustrating that, you know, when the first package for Bush was being voted on, um, I called Saxie Chamlis, I wrote him, emailed him, and he actually sent an email out saying, even though I have gotten thousands of emails and thousands of letters um telling me that to vote against this, I'm gonna do what I think is in the best interest.
I mean, he he totally admitted that he was disregarding what his voters were.
Well, at the time now, at the time, Senator uh Saxby Chambless uh was voting his own best interest.
This is a very controversial time, and Republicans did not have the guts to vote against something that was being portrayed as a job creations bill.
They should have had the guts to go out and say this is not going to create any jobs except in the private sector.
Except the public sector.
This is not the way we they should have used it as a teachable moment, but they were frightened.
Obama had just won huge, huge victory.
His approval numbers were 65-70%.
Uh the dirty little truths about Obama had not yet set in.
Senator Chambliss and others simply did not have the fortitude to advise the people of this country how fraudulent this plan was.
Well, you know, but I did, and that's why you want me as your spokesman.
That's right.
See, because that's exactly as a conservative, I knew what Obama was about, and I tried my best, you know, and I told other people to call, and other people that I know that live in his district called.
And so he didn't listen to me.
And so you're always pushing their buttons, and they're always flipping out when you say something.
But you know what?
It's exactly how I feel.
Well, you know, somebody said to me, I'm I'm glad Joyce, you've made my day.
It's people like you that make me comfortable taking the grief.
I had a note from boy that's a friend of mine during a commercial break earlier in the program after uh my fat boy, after I announced my fatwa on steel.
They said, Boy, you know, Rush, you're ripping into Byrd, and you're ripping into Clinton and Obama on this race business.
Boy, you you realize how much grief you're gonna get.
I said, I love grief.
Okay.
And welcome back.
Now, this next sound bite, ladies and gentlemen, is a series of uh in one answer to a question asked of President Obama sitting with President Benjamin Netanyahu.
Obama took two questions.
The answer to the first question was two minutes and thirty seconds.
Thirty-six seconds of the answer was this.
None of these are repeated.
I don't know.
Uh uh.
Uh uh.
Uh oh.
uh Uh uh.
Uh I was asked if a teleprompter was stuck, or wasn't a teleprompter, which is one of the problems.
But he's also, you know, it doesn't matter what the question was.
That's that's 36 seconds of us, unrepeated, in an answer to two questions.
The question was well, the answer was two minutes and thirty seconds.
David in Las Vegas, you're next.
Nice to have you with us.
Hello.
Good morning, R.L. And good afternoon in New York.
Thank you, sir.
I am absolutely convinced beyond the shadow of a doubt as you are, that Sharon Engle here in Nevada will beat Harry Reed.
And as you know, Rush, the Acorn Group is coming into town on Thursday.
The socialist in chief president is coming in to stump for Harry Reed, and I can't see him saying anything truthful.
So obviously he's gonna have to lie to the hundred people he talks to when Harry and him get together on Thursday.
Well, uh you should be happy Obama's coming in.
He says he's uh whenever he goes to endorse somebody, it's a seal of doom.
That's exactly right.
So that's why I'm laughing, and a lot of us conservatives are, because it's gonna be another loss for Mr. Obama.
Well, it is, but they're desperate to save it.
Um they're desperate to save Dingy Harry, as uh as he is desperate to to uh to save himself.
But I don't think, you know, they they're trying to portray Sharon Angle as a as a kook and a weirdo.
She's been involved at grassroots uh level politics in grassroots level politics for a long, long time.
She's not a wacko kook.
Everybody's trying to portray all these Tea Party candidates as wacko kooks, and she's us.
She's an American.
She's an average American who's appalled at what's been going on, not just nationally, but locally, the education system, any number of areas.
And she's decided to roll up her sleeves and get involved a long time ago.
And they're really threatened by this.
They're even having fake Tea Party candidates show up in the in Nevada, but they are going to bring out all the stops to uh to try to save uh Dingy Harry.
Now, you should note the last time Obama helped Harry Reed, Reed went down ten points in the polls.
And the same thing will probably happen this time around.
Harry Reed is likely is going to have happen to him what happened to Tom Dashell.
Uh these guys come from moderate to even conservative states.
They end up as leaders of the Democrat Party.
They start promoting a leftist agenda that uh has nothing in common with the people that elected them.
And then when it comes time for re-election campaign, then they go back home and they start sounding uh totally different, singing a different song, ignoring the legislation they've sponsored, the things that they have said, uh the agenda items that they have pushed, such as health care and all these other things.
And in the old days, uh they could get away with it because there was no competing media.
There was simply the mainstream media, which was a house organ for the Democrat Party, but now there is competition, and they just do not get away with the revision of history uh as they as they used to.
You know, I'm I'm gonna be very interested to see uh which dialect.
Uh Harry Reed asks Obama to use during his campaign stop.
I mean, because remember, Dingy Harry said, you know, these Obama told Harry, Harry, I've got a gift.
I've just got a gift.
And Dingy Harry defined the gift.
Yeah, he's he can speak in the Negro dialect if he has to uh or he can speak in a non-Negro dialect.
We doesn't sound like a Negro if he has to.
So it'll be interesting to see.
You should keep a sharp eye on this, David.
