Time Text
It is true, paying member to Rush 24-7, Dugarbansky is here while Russia's vacationing, getting ready for the marathon leading up to the election in November.
Rush will become, when he comes back, he'll be arrested, he'll be tanned, and he'll be ready to lead us through all of the drama that will ensue as we get into this crucially, critically important election season.
The phone number, if you'd like to be a part of the show, is 1-800-282-2882.
And it is Open Line Friday, as you know.
You know, things are looking so good in this country.
I can barely contain my joyless joy, my cheerless cheer, my hopeless hope.
Yeah, this is the attitude.
It's all conflictory, everything that comes from this administration.
People lose their jobs, and they tell us things are very, very good.
They tell us we have this thing called a jobless recovery.
And I am not smart enough to be able to understand what that means.
Obviously, that's something that only intellectuals can understand.
Of course, Lenin did say it.
He said, a lie told often enough becomes the truth.
William James said there's nothing so absurd that if you repeat it often enough, people won't believe us.
And that's what it seems like we've got going on here.
Charlie Wrangell, as you know, has been in the news.
Charlie Wrangell made a remark.
Well, he criticized Obama because the wildly unpopular and embattled president, Barack Obama, made a remark about Charlie Wrangell, and he said that Wrangell should retire with dignity.
And Charlie Wrangell shot back last week.
He said, the president hasn't been around long enough to determine what my dignity is.
I mean, when you're tempted to find yourself attracted to the words term limits, Wrangell becomes a pretty good argument for the case.
Now, look, I'm in the entertainment business, so I'm all for certain aspects of Charlie Wrangell and Maxine Waters.
Do not misunderstand me.
The entertainment value is sensational, but it's not sensational when it comes to the destruction of my country.
That's what makes me quite angry.
So Wrangell has today backtracked.
Today, he says that he and Obama are best friends, and he's backed off of his criticism of the president.
The president was in Miami, as you may know, recently, last week, in Miami Beach.
He ate at a delicatessen.
I'm not going to say the name of it.
But the deli where he ate, and I'll let you draw your own conclusions about this.
The deli where Obama ate has apparently been cited for sanitation violations.
I don't think it doesn't really require much more.
The deli where Obama ate was cited for sanitation violations.
I'm not going to even discuss it.
All right.
Four.
Oh, I just want to tell you one other thing.
Jimmy Carter.
I began the show talking about him, and I told you earlier, if you were paying attention to the plot, that 30 years ago, for the past 30 years, many of us believed that Jimmy Carter was going to be the worst president in our lifetime.
And of course, I leave it to you to finish the rest of the sentence.
But I made the point that he had just gone to North Korea.
He has released some American who has been held there.
How do these people get held in these countries?
How does that happen?
They cross the border from where, though?
How do they get in and why are they held?
And what are they doing there in this first place?
Something very strange.
Anyway, Jimmy Carter, looking for his photo op with Kim Jong-il, He managed to do what Jimmy Carter has consistently done for his entire career.
He went to North Korea on the day that Kim Jong-il wasn't there.
He didn't get the photo op, the cup of tea, the picture in those strange chairs.
He didn't get any of that stuff.
Only Jimmy Carter could bungle.
Look, Kim Jong-il doesn't travel.
He's there all the time.
Only Jimmy Carter could bungle this.
Anyway, someone made the remark to me, and I second it.
There he was, Jimmy Carter in North Korea.
And they could have kept him.
And it didn't happen.
I covered the Delhi story, didn't I?
All right.
Ford motor cars buried in the LA Times.
Buried.
A story that should have been front-page news, but it does not fit the plot.
It does not fit the narrative about the Obama administration.
Ford, buried in page B2 of the L.A. Times, barely meriting a few column inches.
Massive story.
Ford earnings climbed 13% in the second quarter.
The automakers' $2.6 billion profit beats Wall Street's expectations.
The results, Ford's best in six years, beat Wall Street's expectations and marked the automakers' fifth consecutive profitable quarter.
Hmm.
What are they doing different at Ford?
Why are people buying Ford's?
They make an awfully good product.
That I know.
I bought my son one.
The article says Ford, which did not file for bankruptcy protection or receive federal bailout like General Motors and Chrysler.
Do we think in that sentence is contained an element, an aspect of the reason they're doing well?
Is the public rejecting Obama Motors?
Is the public objecting to Obama government-run motors?
Here is a comment from an analyst that not taking government money may have worked in the company's favor, says Michelle Krebs, who's a senior analyst for the auto website Edmonds.
She says, Ford got an image boost among consumers by not taking a bailout.
That's buried, you know, all the way down to the 10th paragraph here.
Ford got an image boost by not taking a bailout.
She said many skeptics thought the debt would overwhelm them, but their vehicles are selling quite well.
Now, here's the point: it is a marketing tool.
It is a pro-sales marketing tool for the public to be aware that you do not have Obama money in your company.
Do you understand how profound this is?
It is a marketing tool.
People will buy your product if they know that Obama's got his fingers out of it.
If he's got his beak out of it, they'll buy your cars.
Amazing stuff.
And, well, Bloomberg, Bloomberg, let's see here.
Bloomberg, you know, he's so rich.
I don't know.
He has a war on luxury going on.
This is a man who shelled out $102 million of his personal money last time he ran for mayor in New York.
We've seen all the massive money that Harry Reid is spending in Nevada.
And we know of the enormous amount that John McCain just spent in the primary in Arizona.
Apparently, he spent more on the primary in Arizona of this one primary than he has spent in all of his election campaigns ever, added together.
And Rush has made the point.
I copy him, as is my right as guest host for the moment.
He made the point, isn't it nice that the money is out of politics?
Which is clearly as much in politics as ever.
Finland.
Finland would like to teach the United States about luxury.
They would like us to know that they have a more luxurious lifestyle than we have here.
And they want us to also know how they criticize, how they criticize our lifestyle.
They live in cabins in the woods.
They love relaxing.
They have different sort of relaxing that has nothing to do with products, and they're very big on shouting about that.
They don't like the quest to acquire products.
They're critical of our interest in products.
They don't want the material trappings of success.
They feel that the pleasures of time and solitude are more precious.
Here's a guy who's quoted.
He says, when I talk to my friends in North America, and they tell me about the latest toys they bought, here I am just puttering away at my little house like a Finn, and that's about it.
Life is slower, and I like that.
Americans in Finland shared similar sentiments, but they weren't naive about the place.
There was a reason they weren't buying latest toys.
I'll never become rich in Finland, said One America.
The taxes are just too high.
But for him, for this American, it was a trade-off worth making.
Great health care, he says, basically free.
That's the first lie.
There's no such thing as free.
You're paying for it.
It's high taxes.
And you got no choice.
My kids get a great education, free.
It's also not free.
By the way, that includes college, free.
It's also not free.
Here's a guy who says he spent more time in Helsinki.
And the more time he spent there, the more his notion of the luxuries available in Finland expanded to include more than just quiet pleasures of a cabin getaway.
But he liked the fact that Finnish cities are filled with universally well-maintained schools, buses, trains, hospitals, and parks.
Most Finns might never be able to own a well-appointed SUV or a big house, but they value less tangible assets that they do have, which add up to peace of mind and quality of life.
This is the homogenizing, pasteurizing, psychoanalyzing, and hypnotizing of you to relax.
Do not, this is in theme with Obama's desires.
Do not crave those beautiful, expensive items.
Don't work hard for them.
And by the way, enrich the government, the only one in the whole story who has the act of violent power to confiscate your earnings from you, as it does.
Finland doesn't pay lip service to providing a level playing field for all of its citizens.
It really does give the vast majority of its citizens a fair and equal chance in life in a way that the U.S. just doesn't, we are told, no matter how much Americans like to think it does.
This is a writer in Finland, of course, talking in the Christian Science Monitor.
Finland has its downsides, of course.
The Finns that were interviewed described high rates of get this.
These happy Finns have very high rates of depression and alcoholism.
And they admit that many Finns suffer from low self-esteem.
That's what the life without luxury seems to get you.
It's Dougabanski filling in for Rush on Open Line Friday.
1-800-282-2882 will be right there.
It's Douglas Rubanski filling in for Rush Limbaugh 282-1-800-282-2882 is the number.
You can also go to RushLimbaugh.com, Rush 24-7.
You can become a member, as I am, a paying member, and it's worth every bit of it.
You've got to go there and see the hilarious graphics, all of the archives, all of Russia's great monologues, all of this tremendous analysis.
It's all there on Rush 24-7.
I'll get to your calls in a moment.
I see a lot of you have been holding, and I don't want to be neglectful.
Economic growth has slowed to 1.6% in the spring.
That's just come out in the Washington Post today.
Rush predicted this, by the way, if you've been following the plot.
Washington posts, the economy grew at a much slower pace this spring than previously estimated, mostly due to the largest surge in imports in 26 years and a slowdown in companies' restocking of goods, the nation's gross domestic product, the broadest measure of the economy's output grew at 1.6% annual rate.
That's down from an initial estimate of 2.4% last month and a much slower than the first quarter is 3.7.
So there's a sort of disaster happening.
Ethan Harris, who's an economist at the Bank of America, Merrill Lynch, said this.
He said, we seem to be in the early stages of what might be called a growth recession.
A growth recession.
You know, I'm going to leave that to smarter people to figure out.
Does that mean that the recession is growing?
That's the only logic that I can come up with.
The recession is getting bigger.
What's a growth recession?
These people have to invent language, don't they, just to get us through it all.
Let's go to Long Beach, California, my home state, California.
John, welcome to the Limbaugh Show.
It's Douglas Shabansky.
Guest hosts filling in.
Thanks for having me.
Your call screener is a great guy, by the way.
I wanted to mention I'm a Democrat.
I'm a journalist Democrat.
And I once interviewed Rush.
The guy told me to tell you guys that back in 1992 when he was emerging and he came to Long Beach.
Are you still a Democrat, sir, after all this?
I am.
Here's the situation.
Even after you've met the great one in person, you remained a Democrat.
I know, he didn't convert me, but I'm a West Virginia Democrat, I'm a conservative Democrat fiscally and all.
Are you an Obama Democrat?
No, I'm not.
I can't.
I did not want Obama, and I told all my directors.
Why not just switch over the name?
Why not just switch over?
I'll tell you what, if he runs, obviously he's going to run.
I hope he doesn't get re-elected, so I would switch over, I think.
I have voted for Republicans in the past, but I'm a registered Democrat.
But what I wanted to say, what bothers me about Obama, because I know you have other people waiting, is to me, he was always all sizzle and no steak.
And when a guy runs on change, just for change's sake, and I would say this a Republican, too, I always get worried because the change can be worse than the cure can be worse than the disease.
And I just didn't think that the guy was speaking in glittering generalities.
Well, you know, John, throughout history, change is the thing that scoundrels have often run on.
You're aware of that.
Exactly.
And now he's got to fight people that would say, well, we changed, and now we need to change again, and he's going to try to convince people not to.
But my thing about Obama more than anything else is he's an ideologue.
I didn't like the fact he went to that church for 20 years and then denied that he, that, you know, all these things about right.
And I just knew there was going to, we only had two choices because the Democrat was going to win basically because Bush is so unpopular.
And I would have wanted.
Well, but Bush wasn't running, John.
You're not.
I know what I'm saying.
What I mean is, but because of the situation left, the Democrat probably was going to win in 2008.
And I wanted Clinton more than him.
The thing that really put me over the top, though, was after he got elected.
Put you over the top in which way?
How much I dislike him.
Oh, yeah, okay.
Was when he went to, because I believe in Tip O'Neill's doctrine, you know, politics stop at the water's edge.
You know, at least you knew that O'Neill was a patriot and all that.
I think that is no longer okay.
But I'm just saying.
But that doctrine, John, is no longer in effect, is it?
I know, it isn't.
But here's the thing.
He goes around apologizing for us, and we don't have to apologize to anybody.
I never felt that way.
What put me over the top is when he went to Venezuela and the way he deferred and acted when he talked to Hugo Chavez, who would do anything to hurt us, and he kind of bowed when he shook his hand.
That put me over the top with him.
Because I think that he's bad for us on the foreign policy.
I don't think people are.
Well, there's lots of different reasons why people are put over the top, and that was yours, I suppose.
There were no ideological differences, though.
Well, I have ideological differences with him as well.
But it took Venezuela to push.
Well, that's just the one thing that peed me owe, you know.
But I'm just saying that I think with Obama, like I said, when he talked about change and how he's a change for something, and really what he was talking about was a Democratic agenda, which I support some of it, that goes back to Roosevelt.
What was the change?
You know, social programs changed.
You know, he was to me, he was disingenuous from the start because the change that he offered was the important thing, John, is that you've woken up to it.
You've got to complete the cycle.
And you've got to remove the word Democrat from your so I can be a Dino.
Let me ask you one thing.
Let me mention one other thing.
Yes, quickly, quickly, sorry.
Well, I said, the reason why another thing that he's done is Democrats had a chance to maybe ride this for a while, the anti-Bush thing, like the Republicans rode Carter.
Now he's eliminated that.
Now we got Jimmy Carter all over again, and I think that's bad.
If you're a Democrat, that's bad, and even in that regard.
So on many levels, I think Democrats should be up to it.
Well, you're progressing.
You're coming along.
You've got a way to go there, John.
You're moving in the slow.
I want to say hi to everybody in Parkersburg, West Virginia.
Thank you.
I'm moving in the right direction very slowly.
Thank you, John, for calling the Rush Limbaugh Show.
Let's go also to Oklahoma City and speak to Christy.
Welcome to the Rush Limbaugh Show, Christy.
Taking my call.
My pleasure.
What's on your mind?
We don't have much.
We're not long.
I just wanted your listeners to know that the National Education Association website that the recommended reading for the teachers concerns many of the books by Saul Olinski.
And, you know, I would like to know who establishes the required reading for the NEA, and what can we expect from our children if our teachers are being indoctrinated to be radical wannabes?
Are there a lot of biographies of George Washington also on that list?
I don't think so.
Really?
No.
Is this Laura Bush calling?
No.
I wish.
So you sound suspiciously like someone who's monitoring books.
No, actually, I received a tip on something on that, and I looked it up myself.
And you have to go to the website itself.
You can't just put in, you know.
By the way, Christy, before I scoot, Christy, have you ever been tempted to read Sololinsky's Rules for Radicals?
No, sir, I haven't.
I have.
I carry it with me.
I have it here on the table.
I've read it.
I'm trying to memorize it the way that some children memorize the Koran, as you know.
Well, I have run off and am reading the Underground Manifesto, but Sololinsky, I just feel like that would be a un-American.
Well, thank you very much for calling Christy.
It's kind of a brilliant but demented book.
I've talked about this before.
Maybe one day I'll talk about it again.
1-800-282-2882 is the number.
It's Doug Rubansky filling in for Rush.
You can also go to RushLimbaugh.com, and we'll be back shortly after this.
It is Douglas Urbanski filling in for Rush Limbaugh, who is going to come back recharged in order to help lead us through the very dramatic upcoming election season.
The phone number is 1-800-282-2882.
It's open line Friday.
I see here that Bloomberg is now rushing to Las Vegas, to Nevada, to have a fundraiser for Harry Reid.
Of course, Bloomberg can just write him a check if he wants to.
Meg Whitman in California has a lead over Jerry Brown.
Watch this very closely.
You know, conservatives often will write off California as a place in which they do not want to spend money and win.
They don't think conservatives or Republicans can even win.
If you live in Los Angeles during a presidential election cycle, you will not see any television commercials for who's ever running for president.
And when you poke around and look into this, you find it's just basically because they've written off the place.
Now, California is the land of Ronald Reagan.
It's the land of Pete Wilson.
It's the land of George Duke Mason.
California's been a very conservative state.
California is the state that voted in Proposition 8 last year.
Forget what the judge did.
California is the place where, when taxation is on the ballot, I don't care if you live in San Francisco or Los Angeles, people don't want higher taxes.
It glues us all together.
So we also see that the New York Times editorial board has decided to call any Tea Party candidate who successfully wins, they get called insurgents.
They get called insurgents.
Republican insurgents from the far right did well in Tuesday's primaries.
What their campaigns lack in logic, compassion, and sensible policy seems to be counterbalanced by a fiercely committed voter base that is nowhere to be seen on the Democratic side.
Nothing Democratic about the Democrat Party.
Just a little annoyance of mine.
The New York Times calls Tea Party winners insurgents.
Frank Rich, also in the New York Times, says that Fox News is trying to portray Obama as a closet terrorist.
Now, why would Fox News want to do that?
do they do it?
I mean, look at what these people, you, you, look, you watch all of these characters.
I don't like to name them.
I don't name anybody on MSNBC.
And I don't like to name anybody on Liberal Talk Radio.
I listen almost exclusively to Liberal Talk Radio, by the way.
Drives my wife crazy.
I like to know what they're thinking.
Now, listen, I am not advising you to try listening to Liberal Talk Radio.
Do not try it.
Do not try it.
Let me do it for you and let me tell you what they're saying.
So anyway, here's what the left, they defy logic.
The left completely defies logic.
Their interest in amnesty for illegals, and yet this nation is awash in illegal aliens.
We hear 12 million, 20 million, 30 million.
We had the amnesty of the mid-80s resulted in a flood of border jumpers, and Ronald Reagan felt very betrayed because they did not enact strong reform for immigration.
We have the world's most generous welfare programs, the most generous welfare benefits, and there are no eligibility requirements.
So of course they're going to be coming over the borders.
We are told by the left, what else?
Well, Islam is a religion of peace, which, of course, in many respects turns reality on its head.
And we've talked about that in the first hour.
The big myth we're hearing, of course, is that we can tax and regulate and spend our way to prosperity.
And that if we take more money, more money from the super rich, whose investments, by the way, fuel job creation and expansion, that if we take the money away from them, we will have no negative impact on the economy.
Okay, that really gets the left going.
Obamacare, we are told, is going to be the latest government success story, and I insist on referring to it as Obamacare, the wildly unpopular Obamacare.
It's going to be like the post office.
It's going to be like food stamps.
It's going to be like the federal debt.
We're going to provide health insurance for millions of currently uninsured people, and yet we'll be allowed to keep our physicians.
Premiums won't rise, and medical services will not be rationed.
That's, of course, complete tomfoolery.
We are not going to be able to keep our physicians.
Premiums will rise, and medical services for sure are going to be rationed.
It's already starting.
Oh, boy, we're told that the limits on gun ownership are something that we need.
We're told by the left that The way to achieve peace, let me get this straight, is through weakness.
So the theory is verified throughout history that bullies will always choose the strongest kid on the block to pick on.
So it is the victims' military powers that encouraged the Germans to invade Belgium, let's say in 1914 or Poland in 1939.
So the left, you know, they have the peace view.
They go on its merry way dismantling America's defenses on the theory that you and I are going to be safer and more secure, achieving peace through weakness.
Amazing.
Of course, the big myth is that we are told, and we're getting this daily barrage now, that Islamic terrorism is the result of our offending the Muslim world and Muslim sensibilities, not showing due deference for their concerns.
Boy, oh boy, does this stand everything on its head.
They like the idea of censorship of conservative thought.
They like the idea of censoring campus speech.
They like hate crime laws, unless they refer to the 9-11 attackers.
They would like to destroy talk radio.
They are dedicated.
Read this in Solinsky's book to silencing the opposition.
It's essential, in fact, that they do.
And once they do that, they cannibalize themselves, I promise you.
These are people who call themselves intellectuals, and yet the thing they fear most is what?
They fear intellectual competition.
They fear the debate.
If you're not on board with their complete religion of global warming, climate change, abortion, gay marriage, the other whole litany of things, then you are labeled.
You're told that you are anti-science when, in fact, it is them who is anti-science.
You are told you're a misogynistic, racist, Islamophobic, homophobic, generally just a hateful person.
In the days before Obama was inaugurated, he said he wanted his science czar to follow the science on climate change no matter where it led and no matter how inconvenient the truth was.
And of course, what he meant was just the opposite.
He didn't want to follow the science where it led.
They wanted to follow the science to their predetermined conclusion.
That's what they wanted to do.
Let's take a few more calls.
It is Open Line Friday and I can keep going on in Detroit.
Josh, welcome to the Russell Limbaugh Show.
Hi there.
Yes, I'm here.
How are you, Josh?
Good.
Thanks for taking my call.
My pleasure.
Okay, so I guess in the spirit of full disclosure, I just want to say that I am a GM employee right now.
Obviously, you know, nothing I say is representative of GM, but the point I wanted to make is that the Obama administration's bailout of GM is, I think, one of the few things that they've actually done right.
I think that the bailout was absolutely necessary.
I can tell you for a fact that if it had not happened, that I wouldn't have a job right now.
And about 500,000 other people wouldn't either.
Hey, Josh, what do you do at GM?
What kind of work?
I am working on basically temperature control right now.
I'm actually an undergraduate.
It's kind of like a summer internship type thing.
Well, I mean, temperature control.
What is that?
Well, basically the computers that control the temperature, like a thermostat type thing inside your car.
Oh, man.
Well, GM, I mean, I've owned several Cadillacs in my life.
GM has climate control beating no one else on earth, if you ask me.
So, but I mean, I kind of get frustrated when I see, like on the Fox News Common Threads Online or whatever, there's so much virulent hate for GM just because they took bailout money.
What do you say, Josh, about Ford?
Ford, I think, is actually in a great position because they were able to keep going without taking bailout money, and they're obviously putting good products on the bank.
Listen, I got to go to the next slide.
Josh, I got to scoot in about one second.
But listen, I'm glad you're employed.
I'm glad your friends are employed, but they're needed.
I'm still against the government help here, and I think they needed to become the survival of the fittest the way Ford has done and is doing.
And I don't think in the long run, your company, your jobs, your product, and the consumer is helped by the government bailout and ownership of your company.
But I am happy you and your friends are employed.
Josh, thanks for calling the Rush Limbaugh Show.
We're going to take one more break here.
It's 1-800-282-2882 is the number Douglaski filling in for Rush.
Well, America wanted a president who was not a Washington insider, and instead you've got a Barack Obama, a Chicago insider.
I think we won't be doing that again anytime soon.
You want a president who would put America first, and instead you've got Barack Obama, who David Limbaugh has described as a narcissistic megalomaniac, kind of, who places himself above not only America and the citizens and you and I, but he seems to place himself above the entire world.
You wanted a president who would be transparent, who would be open, whose administration would be open.
Instead, you've got the wildly unpopular and controversial Barack Obama, whose administration is the most opaque and unclear of my lifetime.
You wanted a president who would heal the racial divide.
Do you remember how he sold himself that?
And instead, you've got controversial and unpopular Barack Obama, who is contributing to the setback of race relations.
America wanted a president who they thought would be honest and truthful about the problems that face us.
And instead, you got someone who appears, as David Limbaugh's book says, well, he may be less than truthful.
He may be a serial liar, a man who's incapable of telling the truth as you and I know the truth.
America wanted a president, needed a president who would solve the economic crisis, and instead by either design, by either design or incompetence, has worsened the economic crisis, possibly beyond repair.
Don't despair about it just yet, but watch closely.
We needed a president.
We wanted a president who would create jobs.
And instead, we get controversial and unpopular Barack Obama, whose policies seem to be destroying millions of jobs, and whose policies seem to have no end in sight doing that.
We wanted a president who was going to be a statesman.
And instead, we got controversial and unpopular Barack Obama.
And he went around the world bowing, grinning to our various enemies, and he insulted some of our finest allies.
You wanted a president who would increase the security of our country.
And instead, you got Barack Obama, who has spent so much time attacking and dismantling our national security.
We need a president who would decrease our national indebtedness, the cancer, the cancer that's going to eat away at us.
And instead, you have controversial and unpopular Barack Obama, who has increased the debt by borrowing and spending in such an unprecedented manner that the new terms, new language is going to have to be invented just to describe this insanity.
Yes, Barack Obama, controversial and unpopular as he is, he promised to fundamentally transform America, and he has kept that promise, which may make the United States into a third world country.
Have you given any thought of that?
Have you given any thought of that?
So they constantly ask George W. Bush, do you have anything to apologize for?
What are they going to start asking Barack Obama?
What would you like to apologize for?
Sir, controversial and unpopular.
President Barack, as Rush says, Barack Hoover, Obama.
Doug Arbaski, filling in for Rush?
We'll try and squeeze in one more call before it all wraps up for the day on Open Line Friday.
Ben in Spring, Texas.
Welcome to the Rush Limbaugh Show, sir.
Yes, Doug.
It's a pleasure and it's an honor to talk to you, Doug.
You're doing a fantastic job.
What I wanted, what I told the screener was that I can't believe I don't know how, Doug, I mean, Rush finds you people, because all the mocks and you and the other thing that the other thing I wanted to ask you was, what have they been doing with David Limbaugh?
I mean, when has he been hiding him out someplace?
I hear David talking.
I'm saying to myself, my God, where is this guy been?
Well, this guest host didn't hide him, as you know.
We put him on for a whole hour, and his book is really everything.
I'm not joking when I say, you know, it's as good as it is.
You've got to get it.
And all I've got to say is God bless you.
God bless all you people that are on the radio, on television, telling us the truth.
Well, you know, Ben, I'm going to go back to my day job in Hollywood when I'm finished here in a few minutes.
Well, you've got one person out there, John Voigt, to look at anyways.
Maybe John can get some other people together in Hollywood.
You're not John Voight, are you?
Oh, no, no, no.
No, but I have a lot of respect for him.
Well, Frank, thank you very much for the kind remarks.
Anything else you want to add before I scoot?
I am going to scoot in a moment.
All right.
I want to just tell you a programming note.
Next week, as the caller alluded, everyone named Mark will be here.
Mark Belling, Mark Stein, Mark Davis will be here.
Guest host Rabanski will not be among the marks next week, but we'll hope to see you again.
Been wonderful time filling in for Rush Limbaugh.
But listen, you've got to remember something.
The Republicans are trying to send a message to their party that the corrupt spending, the endless tactics of spending, the earmarks, business as usual, is not going to work.
So we want humble, dedicated people who are going to be problem solvers, who are going to end the corrupt conduct in Washington.
We don't want the government to do Obama's business.
The Democrats seem intent on sending back the same people that have engaged in the same corrupt spending and piling up the hugest debt in American history.
The left is arrogant, my friends.
The left-wing elites will scream extremism at you and I. They'll call us names.
They'll call us, they'll use religious bigotry.
They'll call us Islamophobes and every other thing.
