Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of The Rush 24-7 Podcast.
All right.
National Football League kicks off tonight, folks.
Bret Farbbread Far Bread Favre back in the Super Doma take on the New Orleans Saints.
It's an Al Michaels game and Chris Collinsworth on NBC tonight.
I am jazzed.
Tom.
Yeah, I'll get around to it.
I'll get around to it.
I'm not going to tell you I think it's going to be a Super Bowl.
It's idiotic.
There's no one anybody can know who's going to be in a Super Bowl.
Nobody can predict the outcome of all this weekend's games flawlessly.
It's absolutely ridiculous.
Also, Tom Brady in a car crash today, walked away from it.
He drives an Audi.
I sent him a note.
You need to get an S 65.
Wouldn't happen.
Anyways, in practice, everything's okay.
They had to get another guy out of the van, the jaws of life have 6 30 in the morning.
Belichick gets those guys to work early.
You think professional football is a cakewalk?
It isn't.
Anyway, great to have you, folks.
Telephone numbers 800-282-2882 and the email address L Rushbo at EIBNet.com.
We've had 24 hours, well, 22 hours.
To let things settle down after Obama's dismal performance, it was as dismal as I thought it was.
In Parma, Ohio.
Do you know they couldn't even sell the thing out?
I'm sorry, give it away.
Well, I think a couple minutes before the show was supposed to start, they had 75 empty seats in that arena.
And they're blaming a bad economy for how could a bad economy be response when he's out there addressing the economy, ostensibly.
Nobody is listening to Obama anymore, except the media.
And they don't matter right now.
It's striking.
You know, Obama has demonstrated, folks, he is a combination of an incompetent dissembler and leftist whose word can't be trusted.
People, people are tuning him out.
I mean, he's becoming an aggravation on television.
It's, oh no, is it him again?
And people want to um want to change the channels.
Go ahead.
Go ask uh go ask Colin Powell who's gonna win the Super Bowl snurly if you care.
I mean, Colin Powell told us who to vote for presidential.
We haven't heard from Colin Powell in a while.
Um ask him how things are going out there.
Not only are people tuning Obama out, I think they're starting to get turned off by him.
Now, don't get overly excited.
He's still president, he can still destroy things.
But I think people are starting, he's becoming a caricature.
He is a bumbling, unfocused, destructive politician.
And he really is out of touch.
I I um you know, I go back and forth on on this practically every day.
Does he know what he's doing?
Is it scientifically arranged and executed, or is he genuinely out of touch because of his own messianic complex, his own narcissism.
You know, and and I have a different answer for this from day to day to day, but today I really do think that he's totally out of touch.
He has no connection with people, and I don't think he ever really did.
Even during the campaign, it was all platitudes.
We're the ones you've been waiting for, are gonna lower the sea levels and all this.
Uh, but but there's no personal connection.
This is something that, you know, I, as a uh as a media figure myself, if it forgive me for inserting myself into this, but I labored in the broadcast business as a failure or as a this guy might make it someday kind of figure for a number of years.
1967 through 1983.
Never really amounted, but when I went to Sacramento, I got the first chance ever to really do a radio show the way I wanted to do it and thought it would work for me.
I found out what a success track is.
And I learned about the connection that I have and to this day have with an audience.
And it's a precious thing.
It is not something that you uh target or plan.
It just has to happen based on everybody involving genuine.
And that's the problem.
There's no genuine to Obama.
I mean, he's he's genuine when thinking and talking about himself, but he's he's a disingenuous guy.
He's arrogant, condescending, he speaks above people and talks down to them.
And you're never gonna, you're never going to establish a connection with people.
If he did have one, he doesn't have it any longer.
He's now putting down the American people.
He um he is attacking what the American people have created in this country.
And now he's out attacking their lifestyles.
He's attacking prosperity.
There's something in his world, there's something immoral about prosperity.
What is wrong with this statement?
Obama wants to keep tax cuts for families making under 250,000 a year.
What did the something ought to just leap off the page or out of your radio speaker at that?
Obama wants to keep tax cuts for families making under 250,000 dollars a year.
I'll tell you what sticks out to me for seven years, including yesterday in Parma, Ohio.
We've been told again and again and again the Bush tax cuts were tax cuts for the rich.
And we can't keep on doing business that way.
Tax cuts for the rich, the Bush tax cuts for the rich.
We cannot.
You the you you would never know there were tax cuts for the middle class that Bush was involved in, except if you listen carefully.
Obama wants to keep tax cuts for families making under $250,000 a year.
So from Obama himself and from his acolytes, we learn that there were tax cuts for families making under $250,000 a year.
And we also learned those tax cuts are so beneficial, the regime wants to keep them.
And yet that is a slip of the tongue.
Obama screws it up.
Every time he runs around talking about keeping tax cuts for families making under 250 because they have done their best to make it sound as though only the rich got tax cuts under Bush.
You hear tax cuts for the rich, and now you hear, okay, well, so they weren't just for the rich, so what?
We're still not going to extend the tax cuts for the rich.
Now, as for Obama being tone-deaf, you know, it's just it's an argument.
People can go back and forth on this.
Some people say that uh there's hard of hearing, which is what I am, and others say tired of hearing.
And I think Obama is tired of hearing.
He doesn't want to hear from the American people.
He doesn't care what you think.
All he cares about is persuading you to agree with him.
In fact, Obama has never wanted to hear from the American people.
You don't have the ability, you don't have the competence.
There's nothing Obama can learn from you.
You have to learn from Obama.
He knows what's best for you, but there's nothing you can teach Obama.
He's not even interested in that.
So he goes, he puts everybody down, he attacks what they've created, he has attacked prosperity, their lifestyle.
And then he blames all of this on the rich.
When, have you seen the numbers?
The amount of debt run up by Barack Obama in whatever it is, 18, 19 months, is over the total aggregate debt of George Washington through Ronald Reagan.
And yet there's Obama wanting to hearken back to all these horrible things that Bush did these last seven years.
Barack Obama has run up more debt in a year and a half, a little over a year and a half, than the country did from its founding through Ronald Reagan.
The rich have nothing to do with the destruction that's taking place in this country.
They are not culpable, they are not responsible.
Whatever rich means.
Because the bottom line is it is Barack Obama, his policies, his theories put into practice, which are destroying the lives of Americans from all walks of life In all income categories.
You know, class warfare, they're trying it.
That's what Obama's doing, but class warfare rhetoric doesn't work when the warfare is against the entire economic system.
Obama wants you to think that he's waging war against the evil rich.
And if it weren't for the evil rich, why you'd have it so much better that our country would be so much better off.
But he's waging war on the entire capitalist system.
He's waging war on the entire private sector.
And then yesterday, some guy from the Atlantic or for whatever, I forget what doesn't matter, goes down and talks to Castro.
And Castro says, you know what?
The Cuban model doesn't even work for us anymore.
Says he regrets what he did in the Cuban Missile Crisis.
I'm not buying any of this, by the way.
Now he just wants the embargo lifted.
They don't have any loot.
He figures he can get the embargo.
Castro can read the tea leaves in this country.
We got a bunch of moderate wimps.
Throughout our government, who'd love to lift the embargo.
All Castro has to say is, you know what?
It hasn't work.
Our revolution hasn't work.
Communism hasn't worked.
And he's he's saying this to give Raul, who's already making rumblings in this direction, uh, leeway to make even more changes in the they can't afford in Cuba to pay anybody anymore.
The gov the system doesn't work.
Make no mistake.
I mean, he's right about it, but he's not saying it because he wants to change it.
Changing it would be easy.
He's not doing it.
Castro needs money.
He needs the embargo lifted.
And what better time to get it lifted when you got a sympathy in the White House?
By the name of Barack Hussein Imam Obama.
Or Imam Barack, whatever.
Hussein Obama.
So that's what that's all about.
Don't get all excited, how the communists now even realizing that it doesn't work.
Castro's known it doesn't work from the get-go, except for him.
He's not blind.
He knows he's got a nation of people in poverty.
He knows he's got a city that hasn't been rebuilt or even touched up since 1959.
It's not about prosperity, folks.
If it were about prosperity, they'd have gotten rid of this system long time ago.
Everybody's getting along.
So Castro, even Castro, why doesn't Obama learn?
Obama knows too.
This is a bottle.
They know it doesn't work.
It does for them.
Does it work for you?
Depends on what works and how that's defined.
In Obama's case, you got a grudge against the country.
If your philosophy is get even with them, isn't blame everybody else for the prosperity, fine.
Get even with them by making everybody poor.
It works.
Depends on how you define it.
This trickle-down government schemes, um, a total failure, and he's still obsessed with that.
In that speech in Parma, Ohio yesterday.
He accused the Republicans of still being interested in his failure.
When I fail, they succeed.
Wrong.
When you fail, the country has a chance.
Mr. President, the issue today, folks, quite simply, is not the people.
I still I'm inundated with email from people.
And please do not take this personally if you're one of the inundators.
Rush, you gotta tell people.
They don't understand.
You gotta make them understand.
You gotta tell X, what?
And I I just I start pulling my hair out.
I've been 23 years, they understand.
The American people don't need to be taught.
The people see it all.
Now, people who just only watch the mainstream media fine.
I'm I don't care about them.
You're not gonna get to them anyway, just like you're not gonna convert a bunch of libs in mass with education.
By telling them what they misunderstand.
The bottom line is in any poll you look, Obama were Rasmussen approval 41%.
He doesn't have anywhere near 50% approval anywhere in this country.
The people get it.
They know what's going on, and in November, the people of this country hope to start to remedy things.
The problem remains in Washington.
And that includes the leadership of any party And those who suckle on it.
The American people know far more what needs to change here than even our inside the beltway smartest in the room, guys.
Obama misread his election victory.
Just like the Republicans did in 1994, by the way.
Obama thought he had a mandate to destroy the private sector, to uproot homeowners, to shutter businesses, massively expand the federal government, and if even if he didn't think he had that mandate, he's going to do it anyway.
Washington Republicans are risking misreading an electoral victory as a mandate to manage the massive welfare state that Obama's expanded.
If there are any in the Republican leadership, and by the way, there are some, I don't know who, I can't name names, but some do not want to repeal health care.
Why would they not want to repeal it?
Why would any Republican not want to repeal this?
Tell me, Sturdley, tell me, why would any Republican, whoever pick a name, I don't know, not want to repeal it.
No, no, no, it's not polit.
No, it's not politics.
Snerdley's saying they don't want to repeal it because Obama's gonna veto it.
They don't want to re the people I'm talking about don't want to repeal it because they want to be able to use the power.
It's the ruling class, snerdily, I don't care what party you're a member.
We've got Republicans, not a majority of them, but we've got Republicans who are eager to use all of this new federal power as chairman of committees, and so forth.
It's not a majority of them, but they risk uh understand misunderstanding what this energy that's gonna lead to this massive blowout in November is all about and what is propelling it.
You know, there's nothing wrong with a country.
What needs to be shaken up is Washington.
What needs to be shaken up is the federal government.
Power there needs to be diminished, dispersed, and returned to the people.
But a lot of people there fat and happy, media people, elected people, the whole ruling class, they're happy.
They love being senators, they love being congressmen, they love being lobbyists, they love going to the parties thrown by these people.
They have running things, they love being in the big click.
They love being thought of as smarter than the average schlub in the country.
That's what needs to be dispersed.
Quick timeout.
A little long here, folks.
Next segment will be microscopic, but we'll get to it in a minute.
Having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have rush limbaugh, half my brain tied behind my back just to make it fair.
A regime has announced jobless claims, about 450,000, and they are celebrating this as good news.
Only 450,000 new jobless claims.
450,000 new jobless claims.
Why, if we could hold that great number for a full year to be only 23 million new jobless in a full year.
And then get this from Bloomberg.
For the latest reporting week, nine states did not file claims data due to the labor department in Washington because of the federal holiday earlier in the week.
A labor department official told reporters, as a result, California and Virginia estimated their figures, and the U.S. government estimated the other seven.
Well, this is corruption.
There's no accuracy here for guessing.
Wild guess on the unemployment numbers.
Fidel Castro Cuban model doesn't even work for us anymore.
This comes from the Atlantic Monthly.
It's from Jeffrey Goldberg.
And there's this little ditty here that's buried in this.
There were many odd things about my recent Havana Snopover, apart from the Dolphin show, which I'll get to shortly, he writes.
But one of the most unusual Was Fidel Castro's level of self-reflection.
I only have limited experience with communist autocrats.
He says I have more experience with non-communist autocrats.
But it seemed truly striking that Castro was willing to admit that he misplayed his hand at a crucial moment in a Cuban missile crisis.
He said in so many words, he regrets asking Khrushchev to nuke the U.S. In fact, he regretted it so much, 20 years later in the early 80s, he asked the Soviet Union to nuke the U.S. again.
Even more striking was something Castro said at lunch on the day of our first meeting.
During the generally high lighthearted conversation, I asked him if he believed a Cuban model was still something worth exploring or exporting.
He said the Cuban model doesn't even work for us anymore.
Well, okay, if I'm not play along with somebody tell Harry Reed, somebody tell Obama, somebody tell Pelosi.
Somebody tell Barney Franklin, somebody tell Maxine Waters, somebody tell a whole congressional black caucus, somebody tell Obama.
The latest practitioner to communism says it doesn't work.
Luckily, Mr. Goldberg had Julius Swag, a Latin American scholar at the CFR by his side to explain away what Castro meant.
Honest to God.
Here we have a reporter from the Atlantic Monthly who says he doesn't have all that much experience with communist autocrats.
I don't know a single one personally, but I know that they're evil.
What kind of experience do you need with a communist?
All you need is a history book.
So even though he doesn't have the experience in dealing with a communist autocrat, he does have somebody from the CFR to tell him what Castro meant, really meant when he said the communist model doesn't work for Cuba.
And I'll tell you what she said we get back.
President Obama conceding that if the midterm election turns out to be a referendum on the economy, a Democrats are not going to do well.
If, if it turns out to be a referendum on the economy, in an interview with his slavish ABC, do you know that David Weston, the president of ABC News resigned?
Said he just got tired of firing people.
He says, no Moss, no Moss.
And what of his as as a news report today said, one of his close friends, Barack Obama called him to wish him well.
One of his close friends, Barack Obama, called David Weston, the resigned president of ABC News to wish him well, tell him it'll be okay.
That's what it said.
Somebody else, in addition to Obama from the close friend that called David Weston and said goodbye.
In an interview with ABC News, Obama said, I've not seen a single new idea out of the Republicans to jumpstart the economy.
He commented after John Boehner proposed a two-year freeze on tax rates.
Hadn't seen a new idea.
Doesn't matter if he had, he would ignore it.
He's going to ignore anything that works.
He's going to oppose anything that leads to prosperity.
Back to back to Castro.
I'm sorry I find this amusing.
I got this guy from the Atlantic Monthly down there, gets a scoop from Castro, says, you know what?
Communism doesn't even work for us.
But this guy, since he doesn't, his name is what's his name?
Jeffrey Goldberg.
He doesn't have any experience with the communist autocrats.
So he needs somebody from the Council on Foreign Relations to tell him what this means.
Now I don't know about you, but I don't know any communist autocrats personally.
I don't think I do, but I know how evil they all are.
I know they're not good.
I know we don't want any part of them.
But apparently, Mr. Goldberg, eh, I'm not sure what this means.
Cuban model not working for us anymore.
So we had somebody from the CFR, and her name is Julia Swag.
I asked Ms. Swag to interpret this stunning statement for me.
She said, Castro wasn't rejecting the ideas of the revolution.
I took it to be an acknowledgment that under the Cuban model, the state has much too big a role in the economic life of the country.
Julius Schwag pointed out that one effect of such a sentiment might be to create space for his brother Raul, who's now president, to enact the necessary reforms in the face of what'll surely be pushback from orthodox communists within the party and the bureaucracy.
Raul Castro is already loosening the state's hold on the economy.
Well, now that sounds to me like the Castros are rejecting the ideas of the revolution.
Even though the CFR babes, oh no, no, he's not rejecting the idea of the revolution.
He says simply the government's too big.
What?
The whole point of the revolution was to make the government the focal point and to oppress people and to have political prisons and dungeons and put people in there.
It took away private property for crying out loud.
That's what the purpose of the revolution was.
So here we have the ruling class elite, the council on foreign relations.
I mean, you have to, you have to have a well, you get into this thing.
I don't know.
You you qualifications to get into this.
See a far you just can't walk in there and fill out an application.
Actually, you can.
Do you know that?
You can walk in and fill out an application.
You're not going to be a full-fledged invited member, but you can say resident scholar if uh if they accept you.
So beware, when you see people on TV, says uh scholar or resident, whatever CFR, they may have just walked in the door and said they want to be members.
Some of them have been recruited.
You know, I'm sure this Julius Weig, though, is a member in high standing recruiter.
He wasn't talking about the revolution.
Of course he was.
Um he recently announced, in fact, that small businesses can now operate and that foreign investors could now buy Cuban real estate.
Now, the joke of this new announcement, of course, is that Americans are not allowed to invest in Cuba.
Not because of Cuban policy, but because of American policy.
And in other words, Cuba beginning to adopt the sort of economic ideas America has long demanded it adopt.
But Americans aren't allowed to participate in this free market spearmint because our government's history and stupidly self-defeating embargo.
This is in the story.
This is Mr. Goldberg.
So you see what this is really all about.
This is all about lifting the embargo.
That's what Castro's aiming for.
If there's any doubt here, if there's any doubt about, was it Goldberg's article, was it Greenberg or Goldberg?
Goldberg.
This is just the latest drumbeat from the left to end the U.S. embargo against Cuba.
After all, Castro now says in so many words, he's sorry he tried to have our country destroyed, and he realizes communism doesn't work.
I mean, he must need money.
Badly.
That's what this is all about.
But everybody's all excited about.
How about this?
Government spending to rise under health care.
This from a gob-smacked associated press that just can't figure this out.
Everything you instinctively knew during the whole health care debate, everything that all of us instinctively knew, now is just being discovered by the supposed really smart people, by the ruling class.
This is Ricardo Alonso Zaldibar writing in the AP, the nation's health care tab will go up, not down as a result of Obama's sweeping overhaul.
That's a conclusion of a government forecast release today, which also finds the increase will be modest.
Oh, well.
Thank you for little favors.
This is probably only news to the AP.
Everybody else understood from the get-go what was going to happen to health care expenses with Obamacare.
The average annual growth in health care spending will be just two-tenths of one percentage point higher through 2019 with Obama's remake, said the analysis, and that's with more than 32 million uninsured gaining coverage because of the new law.
Now Remember, this time last year, we were being told by the media and the rest of the Democrats, health care reform would save billions.
In fact, it was the only way to get the deficit down.
We had to pass health care reform.
Health care expenses were blowing up our budget.
They were leading to the deficit.
We had the national debt.
We had to get this under control.
And now, ps-oh, by the way, uh, health care expenses.
You know what?
Government agencies that are gonna go up.
We're shocked.
And now we're being told it'll actually cost just a tiny bit more, but we are insuring millions more.
So by next year, the news will be that Obamacare is gonna cost billions more than ever anticipated.
This is the way the government cost estimates always go.
It'll be mitigated by the fact, but we are going to insure 32 million more people.
And now, by the way, toward the end of this piece, the AP actually says it's time to move the health care debate off stage.
Yep.
Towards the end of this story, AP complains a health care debate won't move off stage.
We got to get it off.
I thought it was the crowning achievement.
I thought it was the greatest thing it ever happened.
President since FDR, whoever the hell else have been trying to get this done, and finally the anointed one.
The Messiah, the most merciful, Imam Obama finally got it done.
And now number one supporters wish it would just move off stage.
Wonder why they want health care moved off stage.
And now we find out.
How can we believe anything they say anyway when they're literally guessing about unemployment numbers?
Nine states didn't even submit figures because of the Labor Day holiday.
They were closed.
So now the regime is just guessing.
And they say the news is good.
I tell you, they're totally out of touch.
They have there's no connection.
Obama has there's you could see it in that crowd.
I watched it at Parma yesterday.
The crowd behind Obama.
I mean, it was like they were drugged.
They were just there was there was no enthusiasm.
It was dead in there.
And we find out there were 75 open seats at showtime.
Quick time out.
I know Ohio's in misery.
Hell, we're all in misery, snurdy.
Everybody's in misery.
That's the whole point.
It's just different degrees of misery.
Ohio's in bad shape.
Chicago's in bad shape.
Detroit's in bad shape.
New York's in bad shape.
Nevada's in bad shape.
Their misery is everywhere.
There's just different degrees of it.
I don't know how Obama even shows his face.
He shows his face because he doesn't care and because he is totally out of it.
He doesn't care about the stuff.
He does the suffering and the discomfort.
He's brought it about himself on purpose.
Can there be any doubt?
Rush Limbaugh minded over chatter.
Your guiding light.
The prestigious Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies during his interview with George Steffi Stephanopoulos.
He can't get let go of this.
He said that uh the Republicans uh still hope he fails that if he fails, they win.
Isn't it too late for that?
When you get right down to brass tax, Obama has already succeeded beyond his wildest dreams in just a little over a year and a half.
Look at the destruction.
Look at the trail of tears and destruction.
My gosh, if conservatism had accomplished in just a year and a half as big a percentage of its objectives as Obama has, we would be throwing parties.
This idea.
I mean, we are in a terrible state.
He's already succeeded.
The country has been devastated here.
He instituted his financial plan.
He's been fantasizing about this since he wrote the dream of my father, whatever the hell it is.
He inherited.
Reconomics.
Reconomics, W-R-E-C-K-O-N-I-M a reconomics.
That's what we're facing with.
Get this.
I just don't believe this.
It's AP story.
An apple a day, apparently not in the U.S., a new government study says that most Americans still don't eat enough vegetables and fruit consumption is actually dropping a little.
The CDC found that last year about a third of U.S. adults had two or more servings of fruit or fruit juice a day down slightly from more than 34% in 2000.
Now, how do they know this?
When I read things like this, it's a big country.
300 million people.
How the hell do they know this when they're guessing about the unemployment numbers?
How do they know this?
Well, if you read further, you find out this.
The statistics come from a national telephone survey of hundreds of thousands of Americans.
Really, you mean to tell me that the government is spending money to call people and ask them if they're eating their vegetables.
Can you believe they're actually the government is calling people?
Phone rings.
Yeah, hello.
Hi.
I'm calling from the CDC.
Are you eating vegetables?
And people actually answer this.
Has anybody, please, anybody in this massive audience ever received a phone call from the CDC asking whether or not you're eating vegetables.
And then how many and how much and how often?
And then if you're eating fruit.
To the phones we go to New Haven, Connecticut.
Jerry, welcome to the Rush Limbaugh program.
Great to have you here, sir.
Hey Rush, great to be with you today.
Um I wanted to ask you, are you getting bored?
Am I getting bored?
Yeah, with your with your job.
Not at all.
Well, no, I've been listening to you for a while.
I mean, I'm getting bored.
I mean, this guy in the White House.
I mean.
You don't think you're getting bored.
Fatigue?
I think it's like I said, you're tuning him out.
He's an intrusion in your life now.
He's not he's not connecting with you.
Yeah, I mean.
Even to hear you talk about him, you're getting tired.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, but I don't know.
I don't know if I'm rejecting, but I know I'm sensing a little bit of boredom in.
I mean, in your last segment, you said everybody's miserable.
And you're right.
Is everybody miserable?
Economically.
Economic, I'm using that to describe the economic disaster wrought by this guy's policies.
Now, I whether they're in in sense of a uh their mood, uh, where they're miserable, I mean, you're always going to have a certain percentage of people every day.
Their mood they're gonna be miserable, but no, I'm not I am not bored by any stretch of the imagination.
This is too crucial.
This is too important.
We we're look at here's the way to look at this is while in a year and a half the guys had been wildly successful in implementing destructive policies, at the same time.
He has been wildly successful in illuminating for people exactly what people like him really are all about.
We're gonna have I mean, if if there were boredom and tedium, nobody be talking about massive turnout this November in the election.
It's gonna be huge.
People aren't bored, they are ticked off.
They are fed up.
They are fed up with Washington, they're fed up with professional politicians, they're fed up with being told this is important so somebody can hold on to their chairmanship.
They're fed up with Washington being too damn big a part of their lives.
And they want that fixed.
So don't mistake uh uh fatigue or frustration with boredom because we're sitting here on the cusp of an opportunity.
And that, by the way, that is what adds to some of the what you think is fatigue or boredom.
Uh we're on the cusp of a great opportunity, and there's frustration that some Republicans don't seem to see it that way.
A lot of people are out there scratching their heads.
They see every day what's happening to the country because they're living it.
The American people do not have a way, other than the welfare class, to dip their hands into the back pockets of everybody else via the public treasury.
But they see everybody in Washington doing it.
They see everybody working for the government making twice what they make.
Everybody working for the government, living a life or Riley, with no threat to their job security or anything else.
They see people working with the government being totally insulated from the economic circumstances they face every day.
And they don't understand why elected officials in Washington don't share their enthusiasm to ditch all of this and start over with the citizen being the primary focus of the government, not the government being the primary focus of the government, and the people who work there.
No, there's not any boredom out there.
There is anticipation.
There is an effervescent boy.
It's bordering on, I don't want to use the word anger because it'll convey the wrong idea, but there's an anticipation.
People cannot wait for November the whatever it is to roll around.
I am still stunned at that question, snurdly.
Bored?
You know the Democrats, the rest of the media, they wish to Allah we were bored.
But we're not bored.
We are revved up.
Obama has stimulated the opposition.
It's called a Tea Party.
Bored?
Frankly, myself, uh, if I say so myself, I've never been better in the past six months.
What is this bored business?
