Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of The Rush 24-7 Podcast.
Well, I found out that Hank Haney is not mad at me.
He's just partially mad at me.
He's just a little bit mad at me.
But he understands that I have a full-fledged job.
I sorry, I had to do that.
I just can't help stirring it up.
You tell me to stick to the issues, and I'm going to talk about golf.
Greetings, folks, Rushlin bought the EIB network.
Great to have you here.
Can't wait to talk to you.
Telephone number 800-282-2882, the email address, L Rushbaugh at EIBNet.com.
The same guy on a little horse today, folks.
I am fighting off successfully.
The full impact of the ravages of the common cold virus.
Fighting it off successful.
But I've had this tight congestion in there.
And normally it would uh get into my throat and lose my voice for a day, but it has not happened, but it's it's a little hoarse today.
So just be advised and be aware.
But the same guy who has taken at least eight vacations in the last year is calling his own voters lethargic.
Barack Hussein Imam Obama trying to buck up the Democrat base on their lethargic.
People need to shake off this lethargy.
People need to buck up.
Obama told Rolling Stone Magazine, an interview being published on Friday.
Making change happen is hard.
He said, No, it's not.
It's been easy as pie.
We have seen how easy it is to destroy the American private sector.
We've it's been a year and a half.
It hasn't taken that much.
But it has taken one thing.
It has required one thing.
A Democrat Party running the show.
It has required a Marxist president in charge of the Democrat Party.
That's what happens when you elect.
And the same people have been running our education system.
The same people have been running the unions.
The same people have been running the cities that are broken, the same people who've been running everything that's been run into the ground.
The Democrat Party, the American left, destruction inc.
Destruction personified.
Look at the success they've had in just a year and a half.
And I mean success from their perspective.
It's absurd.
And now we've got health care kicking in.
This has to be repealed.
This is a disaster waiting to happen when it is fully implemented.
Making change is hard if you uh if you if you got a public school education.
That's that's what hard is.
If you got a public school edu, well, look who's been teaching people.
The American left.
The American left's a one-party wrecking crew.
Now look at his Americans' view of the economy turned grimmer in September amid escalating job worries falling to the lowest level since February.
A downbeat report released today raises more fears about the tenuous U.S. economic recovery.
Uh also further underscores the disconnect between Wall Street and Main Street.
Consumer confidence fell further even as stocks rebounded in September.
Now here they are bashing Wall Street.
Let me tell you why stocks are rebounding.
There's two reasons.
The Federal Reserve is buying stocks.
Your average ordinary financial uh asset manager is not the one buying stocks.
The Fed is.
They're trying to prop up Obama, and they're creating a bubble.
This is an artificial elevation of the stock price.
And at some point, the bubble is look.
I'm sorry to be negative here.
The other thing has happened to the extent that there are stock buyers, purchasers driving the price up.
It is people excited about the fact that the Democrats are no longer going to be in control of Congress come November.
In their minds, there's two things driving this.
It's not Wall Street greed for credit.
There isn't a new the greed is in our nation's capital.
A tenuous economic recovery, other scores, the disconnect between Wall Street and Main Street.
Consumer confidence fell further even as stocks rebounded.
So what and this is uh this is the uh the AP, and they want you to believe Wall Street's making out like bandits.
And by the way, folks, there are people who know how to make money during economic destruction.
People make money during all economic circumstances.
There are the truth.
The short sellers, there are people who get rich during times like this.
And there are people who get rich during boom times.
But the idea here that the people on Main Street are in sad shape because Wall Street's in good shape is typical drivel.
Typical Democrat leftist drivel, as though it's a zero-sum game.
We're back to the same old belief that Main Street is having everything it has stolen from it by the evildoers on Wall Street.
And it is all a crock.
Remember when uh during the uh Bush years we were told that if we feel like we're in a recession and we're in a recession.
Guess who guess who's made more money than anybody else in the last two years?
George Soros.
George Soros, who's funding the destruction of the Democrat Party, is making more money than anybody else in the last two years.
And George Soros is not pledging to give his away to charity.
Like these idiots, Buffett and Gates are.
They are not.
George Soros is not pledging all this philanthropy.
He's not trying to score points.
He's trying to screw.
And he's succeeding at it.
Because he's bought the Democrat Party in Barack Hussein Imam Obama.
Why is it shocking consumer confidences down?
Who would think that that's even possible during these Rosie Economic Times.
What are these yokels in the drive-by media think?
And then there's this U.S. economy close to a destructive tipping point, says Glenn Hubbard.
America very close to a destructive tipping point.
Co-authors Glenn Hubbard and Peter Navarro warn in their new book, Seeds of Destruction.
We must change how we conduct our politics and economics, or we will inevitably go the way of all great, once great nations and suffer an irreversible decline.
Hubbard, a dean of Columbia Business School, joined Dan Gross and the author of this story, Aaron Task, to discuss the major structural imbalances facing America, chief among them being the government's profligate spending.
Glenn Hubbard was chairman of the President's Council of Economic Advisors during the Bush first term, George W. Bush.
As you might expect, he's a strong advocate of smaller government and lower taxes.
But Hubbard and Navarro, a business professor at UC Irvine, are also harshly critical of Bush's gross mismanagement of the fiscal stimulus bequeathed to his administration by Clinton.
Specifically, Hubbard chastises his former boss for the creation of a new unfunded federal mandate, Medicare Part D. Have to agree.
And every time I every time I ripped Medicare partly, Republican created entitlement, Tom DeLay would call.
No, you misunderstand.
This is market reforms, he said.
This is a great entitlement.
Well, it's just not something that Republicans will do.
It's not something Republicans do.
Anyway, uh these guys are right on the money.
U.S. economy close to a destructive tipping point.
Ram Emanuel knows it, he's heading back to Chicago.
Axelrod knows it, he's heading back to Chicago.
Geithner knows it, he's stuck.
Uh little Timmy, who else?
Well, what the hell?
Uh the Summers knows he's back to Harvard.
Uh Christina Romer, she knows it.
She's headed back to Berkeley.
But who's the other guy that recently just?
Oh yeah, Orzag.
Not only is Orzak known, he went and got married.
He went and got married.
None of the Obama team decided to show up in his way.
He got out of there.
Nobody, no administration has had this kind of defection this soon into its first term.
Anyone can remember.
And Axelrod even admits there's a I have a story he's interviewed by somebody.
I'll find it.
I don't know who interviewed.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, Dana Milbank in the Washington Post.
Axel Rod is saying he's actually disappointed.
He thought they're going to be able to come in and change Washington.
He thought they were going to be able to come in and get rid of politics as usual.
Just by showing up.
He really says this to Dana Milback.
I don't know if he really believes It.
Maybe he is.
Maybe he's one of these cowed people caught up in the fog of the Messiah who really thought just by showing up, they were going to redefine the way this country worked, and just by showing up, they were going to create a utopia.
There has to be a reason these people are leaving.
I mean, if you're enjoying what you're doing, there's a story in the stack here, Snurdly, and it's in the Wall Street Journal about retirement.
And why many self-made people never retire?
And that's because they love their work.
Retirement's not in the vocabulary.
Their work is their life, their work is their enjoyment, their work is their vacation.
Their work is what gives them meaning, as opposed to old money that inherits it and doesn't know what to do with it, don't know how they got it.
All they think is they're better than everybody else because they inherited it.
Well, yeah, but Axel Rod, here's the interesting thing.
Axelrod is admitting to Dana Milbank and the Washington Post, and he thought things are going to be better.
He thought things are going to change, they're going to get utopia.
He doesn't use that word, it's mine.
But he's leaving.
He's leaving in disappointment, we're told.
Or is he leaving in happiness?
Because they've succeeded in destroying everything.
So now he's out of there.
Is he able to lead?
Yeah, he's supposed to be running the re-elect, but he's getting out of Dodge to do it.
All these other people, I mean, they're leaving for one of two reasons.
Mission accomplished, or uh-oh, uh, ain't working out the way we thought.
Now we've all acknowledged while they are book smart, they're genuinely ignorant, devoid of common sense, real-life experience people.
This might be their first taste of actual implementation without any check and balance on them of what they believe.
It might be the first time that they've gone beyond just the theoretical discussions in the faculty lounge.
Now, don't misunderstand.
I know liberalism's been tried all over the world, but remember these people said we're the ones we've been waiting for.
These people believed it had never been done right.
These people believed it hadn't been properly funded.
Uh, these people believed uh the Soviets they killed too many people.
Mao killed too many people while being brilliant.
It just it hadn't been done right.
Now here they came, and nobody could stop them.
Republicans couldn't stop them.
The media was on their side, nobody could stop them.
They have no excuses.
In a year and a half, they've implemented a tremendous amount of Obama's agenda.
And it isn't working.
And I proffered positive this point uh some months ago in explaining to people, people always ask me, why are liberals so mad?
Why are they so unhappy?
Well, what's face them in the in the uh squarely in the mirror every day?
It doesn't work.
To the extent that these neophytes really believe this stuff is going to create a panacea, to the extent they really believe that equality and sameness and political correctness and government spending is going to equalize and make everybody happy to the extent they believe that they're witnessing the utter failure of it.
I mean, they are learning here.
Government does not create wealth.
Government cannot create wealth.
All government does is confiscate it.
That's all government does, like I asked you yesterday.
Why in the world, if you work someplace, do you want the government to raise taxes on your employer?
How does that help you?
It doesn't help you when the government confiscated because they cannot create wealth.
They also thought they'd be able to shut me up.
That failed too again.
So are they leaving in happiness?
Or are they being honest when they say they're unhappy and burned out, or what have you?
Actually, folks, it doesn't matter.
Because what is what is, and we are at a tipping point.
We face, we're on the precipice of the destruction of the wealth-creating engine of this country.
That's the American people.
We're on the verge of it.
The guys that write this book on the tipping point are exactly right.
FDR, LBJ, Obama had a huge Democrat majorities.
How many more experiments of this sort do we need to prove what a failure they are?
They have such overpowering egos.
They're sitting there and saying, well, FDR didn't do it right.
He didn't spend enough.
Didn't spend it fast enough.
LBJ, hey, didn't do it right.
He got caught up in a Vietnam War.
Obama, the Messiah.
They have no excuse.
Nobody can stop them.
They're lying to themselves if they're saying the Republicans got in a way.
Because the Republicans didn't.
They've redefined how this country works.
They have they have their boot on the neck of the private sector.
They have their boot on all of our necks.
They've lavished our dollars on their friends and bureaucrats.
They confiscate wealth.
They do not create it.
Even Obama's voters know it.
That's what what was her name, Velma?
Velma Hart, I'm exhausted defending you.
I'm this or that.
She's finally, she may not know it in so many words.
She not may not think it as I'm expressed, but she's finally figured out, you know what?
This guy can't make me rich.
This guy can't get me a new house.
This guy and his policies, this guy cannot enrich my life.
May not want a full-fledged admit it yet, but she knows it.
Axelrod.
Instead of skating out of town, you need to take credit for all that you and your boss and your party have done.
You need to take credit for destroying the American healthcare system, for destroying job creation, for destroying homeownership.
This is their record in a year and a half.
This is what they've done.
That's why we're at the tipping point.
Instead of running out of town, I gotta run Obama's re-elect.
Well, I gotta get back to Berkeley.
Yeah, I gotta get back to Harvard.
Uh yeah, I gotta I gotta get married.
Before she figures out I'm an absolute dork.
I gotta go get married, whatever.
They've done a lot, you people.
Axel Rod, you have done a lot.
You have changed the country, and we're trying to change it back.
We want our America back.
This is the third time this rot gut's been tried.
The New Deal, the great society, the war on poverty, and now European socialism under Obama.
It's a third time it's been tried.
It doesn't work.
It hasn't worked, it isn't working, and it won't work.
It's a shame I have to stop because this is a hell of a roll.
And Hank Haney really isn't all that mad at me.
He's a little sad.
Back after this.
You remember Ron Emmanuel?
When these clowns first got into Washington after Obama was immaculated, maybe even before that, Ram Emanuel said a crisis is a terrible thing to waste.
Now what is Rom Emanuel saying?
He's saying a crisis is a great thing to escape from.
I'm getting back to Chicago.
He's running away from a crisis.
They got all kinds of crises.
They've created them in Ram Emanuel's.
I don't think I can make chicken salad out of this.
I'm uh I'm heading out of here.
I got a note from a friend and friend says, hey, Rush, a ruling class are not used to being rejected like this.
They've never been rejected in their lives.
Obama's never been rejected.
So to be rejected by the voters is quite a stunning blow to their egos.
Now that's an interesting point to me.
You know, I'm I'm looking at Obama.
He's out there exhorting.
Here he is.
He and he Joe bite me both.
I mean, these guys need to go read a Dale Carnegie book.
Power of positive thinking.
You don't win elections by wagging your finger at voters and say, buck up after you take eight vacations in the last two months and bite me.
Nobody can find any evidence, any work bite me's been doing anyway.
And these guys go in front of their Democrat audience and say, hey, hey, hey, you guys need to buck up out there.
You need to shake off this lethargy.
You need to stop whining out there.
Really?
You need to stop.
They're lecturing their own voters.
And I'm I'm I'm I'm serious about this.
Because at heart, Obama resents voters.
I know he has this need to be loved and adored.
As the supreme leader.
And, you know, all statists, authoritarians do want to be loved.
They find out that as authoritarians, they're never loved.
They're hated, despised, and feared ultimately.
So I ask myself, what are they even messing around with voters for?
Because at the end of the day, they resent voters.
At the end of the day, the ruling class resents, they even have to subject themselves to elections.
And every time the ruling class loses, be they Republican or Democrat, but especially Democrat.
Every time they lose an election, do they blame?
John Kerry, who uh once served in Vietnam.
Blame the voters.
Voters are stupid.
He did it yesterday.
When they lose elections, it's the voters who are stupid.
So I asked me, why do why do they want this massive outpouring of love and support?
It's it's an impediment.
You know, authoritarians hate elections.
Elections are like wars.
It's an inconvenient things.
They haven't gotten to the point yet where they can cancel elections there that they go to the motions here, they gotta make people love them to win elections.
But from that standpoint in that context, they probably are shocked and depressed.
They are being rejected.
Not used to it.
Hey, I have a quick uh question, uh, ladies and gentlemen.
Why is a Democrat senatorial campaign committee?
Why are the Democrats in the Senate spending more money on negative ads against Christine O'Donnell?
I mean, why?
Why are they doing this?
If she is a sure certain loser, why are they doing it?
Can the Republican ruling class explain this to me?
Can the Republican ruling class you explain to me all of you who um the only hope here was Mike Castle?
The only hope for 51 seats was Mike Castle.
Somebody explain to me why the Democrats are spending so much more money than they planned on in Delaware against the sure loser, like Christine O'Donnell.
I appeared with Greta Van Sustran last night on uh on her show on the record.
It was a um it was a phone interview, and uh people have said, you know, you ought to play that rush.
And I said, Well, didn't you see it last night?
Yeah, but you know, you still ought to play it.
So I have it here.
We've chopped it up into uh three or four sound bites.
So here it is from the top.
She rush.
Thank you for joining us earlier today.
You said on your show the upcoming election boils down to this it's either Obama and the Democrats or America.
You can't have both.
What do you mean by that?
I think it's pretty clear.
I I think we're in the midst of a disaster, Greta.
I think the Obama administration, the regime and its agenda is a disaster for this country as founded.
There is a systematic destruction of the private sector of this country taking place.
The private sector is where jobs are created for Americans.
And there aren't any jobs being created, and there are no policies in place to create jobs.
The policies in place are depressing job creation.
And so the the question here for the election is Obama and the Democrats or America, because you can't have both.
Maybe I should say America as founded, but it's crunch time.
I don't think this is being overstated.
I don't think it's being exaggerated at all.
She said, What do you think of the Tea Party and its effect on the midterms?
Well, clearly the Tea Party is having a profound effect on the midterm election.
You look at Alaska and a polling date in Alaska in Delaware, you know, Lisa Murkowski says she's gonna run as a with a write-in campaign.
They did some polling, and she's taking votes away from the Democrat, not the Tea Party winner, the Republican.
And the same thing in Delaware, Castle flirting with maybe a right-in candidacy.
And so they polled it, and they found out that Castle would take votes away from Coolins, the Democrat, and not from Christine O'Donnell.
I think what's happening, if you look at who the Tease Party nominees are and who the people that comprise the Tea Party, these are people who live lives.
These are people who have lived lives.
Nathan Deal in Georgia has a debt problem.
It's not hurting his campaign.
He can relate to the people in this country who make it work.
The Tea Party people have not been groomed for political advancement from college on.
The way has not been paved for them.
These people have made it on their own to whatever degree they've made it, living their lives.
And that's who's surfacing now.
You know, Republicans, people around the country have been clamoring for people to get involved.
Come on, we need you to get the run for office.
And now they're out there doing it, and it's not time to start putting them down.
It's time to support them.
I'm enthused by what's happening, and I'm invigorated by it.
Um have they ignored them?
Have the Republicans ignored the Tea Party?
Greta asked uh presently.
The Tea Party is much outside.
Look at Sarah Palin.
You know her well.
Sarah Palin is being reacted to precisely the way all the other Tea Party people are, because not because she's a walking joke like they want you to believe, but because they fear her.
Same thing with Christine O'Donnell.
You know, liberalism, I think, is all a lie, and liberals live their lives trying to cover up the lie and make sure that it's not exposed.
And that's why Clarence Thomas was so opposed.
Here you have the Democrat Party that loves to say they believe in civil rights, uh, helping the downtrodden, helping blacks get ahead of them.
Clarence Thomas gets nominated for Supreme Court would happen.
All hell breaks loose, and they set out to destroy it.
Why?
What did Clarence Thomas ever do to anybody?
Nothing.
But he represented a threat.
Here's a guy, when he was confirmed and then sits on the court, is now the most powerful in real terms.
Black man in America.
And he didn't get there going through the Democrat Party's civil rights route, affirmative actions like representative threat, shows people that you can succeed and become whatever you want without going the route.
The ruling class tells you you must, or the Democrat Party tells you you must.
Same thing with Palin.
She's lived a full and rich, real life.
Nothing was paved for her.
I mean, Hillary Clinton didn't even get a full partnership in a law firm until Bill became governor.
Michelle Obama got the no-show job at the Chicago hospital after her husband was elected the Illinois legislature.
But these women did it on their own.
Their dads didn't pave the way, parents, sponsors didn't pave the way.
And I just think right now that it's an interesting thing to see that the average ordinary real people who want to aspire to great things are being destroyed or trying to be destroyed, being impugned, laughed at, and made fun of, because they actually do pose a great threat to the existing power structure that's in place in the what I call the ruling class.
This is me last night on Greta Van Susterin's show on the record.
People have often told me what a great uh interviewer they think uh Greta Van Susterin is.
Why do you think they say that, Snerdly?
That's right.
She asks a question and she lets the guest answer it.
And uh doesn't interrupt and get into arguments or um uh attempt, attempt to uh uh keep the guest from shining the light.
Uh Greta, we were up against Monday Night Football last night.
People are accusing me of trying to destroy Monday Night Football by uh going on Greta's show at the same time.
Uh the second half was on last night.
So anyway, she said, look, one last question.
Which politician currently do you admire most or impresses you the most?
I really look at Sarah Palin, however, and I I look at everything they've thrown at her and look at the attempts they have made to destroy her.
A decent, good, patriotic woman, not done anything to anybody.
And in fact, she has lived the life that the feminists told us women should do.
She's had it all.
She's got she's a family woman.
She uh started out in the PTA and got involved in her kids' lives and took it further and wanted to go into politics at a higher level, try to fix things.
She's done it all, and she has not withered under the efforts to literally destroy her.
You have to admire that.
You have to admire people that don't quit and don't give up, especially doing it with a smile on their face.
She's defied them all along the way.
Even Republicans said when she retired or quit the governorship.
Well, that's the other perfect way.
She's never going to know, Dave.
Look at her.
Her daughter's on dancing with the stars, crossover into the so-called mainstream.
Entertainment tonight up in Wasilla.
Entertainment tonight.
I mean, that's the Hollywood left.
They're up there being entertained with exclusives with Sarah Palin.
It's got to just be rubbing Democrats raw.
This is not what we're supposed to have.
This woman is supposed to be a standing joke, and they can't make a joke out of her because she's a very serious woman who loves being an American, loves life.
And you have to admire how she's stood up under this withering attack.
Now, one they uh Cookie edited something out here.
I said, look, there's no way to answer this because I'm going to make a lot of people unhappy by not singling uh them out.
Um but uh I you know, question who's the most sure of uh can you admire most or impress you the most drug?
That can change day to day.
Uh and uh and it often does.
I mean, I admire myself more than anybody else, but I she didn't ask me that.
So if she should ask the question a different way, I would have said me, and uh then she could have gone on to another question.
But listen, you heard that.
Rush Rush Limbaugh, defender and protector of American women and women worldwide.
On a show hosted by a woman on the dreaded Fox News channel.
Here's that Washington Post story.
Sadder but wiser Axelrod packs his bags.
Well, we in the Capitol are relieved, and this is me and Dennis Milbank writing.
We're relieved to know that we are not the source of Axelrod's digestive distress.
But if Washington didn't take those 25 pounds off the six foot two inch Axelrod frame, this town did take something else from Axelrod and his boss, the notion that they would arrive and that the culture of politics would change.
Axelrod's depressed.
They thought just by showing up, the culture of Washington and politics would change.
In that sense, writes Milbank, Axelrod is leaving in defeat.
It's not really an electoral defeat, though Democrats will probably experience a shellacking on November 2nd.
Rather, it's the notion that Obama, who declared on election night that change has come to America, has failed to change Washington.
A belief shared by 53% of Americans in the latest Washington Post ABC News poll.
Has he really failed to change Washington?
He hasn't.
In my mind, he's grown it.
Washington's expanded.
It's far more involved in our lives and getting more so each and every day.
Later on in the uh in the story, in the smart and well-timed profile of Axelrod and the current issue of the new republic, Noam Schiber describes an idealistic Axelrod made very dour, as an administration colleague put it by the Washington culture.
The campaign he designed for Obama to run against Washington in 2008 ran headlong into the Washington deal making necessary to get items such as health care reform through Congress.
See, I I knew it.
I knew that's what upset.
These people are autocrats.
They showed up, they really, to a certain extent, I believe this.
And I think they do too.
They showed up.
And just because of their presence, people were going to lay down.
Obama had this massive, Masonic, messianic like popularity.
They got into town, and whatever Obama wanted, it was gonna happen.
No resistance, no opposition.
And they couldn't believe it.
They simply could not believe it because the ruling class is not used to being rejected.
They haven't been rejected throughout their lives.
So to be rejected by voters is and even members of their own political class, quite a stunning blow to their egos.
As Noam Scheiber wrote, during the campaign in the first months of the administration, it had been possible to believe Obama wouldn't have to choose between his twin goals of passing legislation and taming Washington.
But over time, a combination of structural factors, 60 vote requirement in the Senate, and circumstances, a Republican Party determined to oppose him at every turn, made the choice inescapable.
That's bogus.
The Republican Party couldn't stop him at any turn.
They couldn't.
Not until Scott Brown got in there.
Obama's promise of change in Washington was a noble idea, writes Milbank, but ultimately either naive or cynical, if he knew he couldn't, but told voters he could.
So what is this?
Aimless whining from Axelrod?
And now we can change the culture of politics when we got to town.
There's more to this than meets the eye.
There's more to all these people exiting than meets the eye.
They are confronted with a failure that goes beyond the success they've had in destroying the private sector.
They're not universally loved and adored.
People don't bow down and genuflect.
People want them out of town.
It's got to be a shock.
And this is when these kind of people get dangerous.
This is when they start saying, why the hell do we need elections in the first place?
Who the hell are we subjecting ourselves to these idiots that live in this country?
Why do we have to waste our time persuading them to vote for us?
Don't they know it intrinsically?
So they end up resenting all of us for their disappointments, whatever it is that depresses them.
what president in our lifetimes has ever had it so easy?
They talk about how hard it is.
Obama had supermajorities in both houses of Congress.
The opposition party couldn't stop him.
He's had a press for crying out loud he's going to die of anal poisoning if this keeps up.
What in the world's Obama got to be disappointed about?
He bows to other leaders because in his heart of hearts he thinks he should be bowed to.
He's trying to show other people how he should be treated.
Look at this.com Democrats.
Now listen to this.
Democrats are considering cramming as many 20 pieces of legislation into the lame duck session they plan to hold after the November 2nd election.
The array of bills shows the sense of urgency among Democrat lawmakers to act before January when Republicans are expected to control more seats in the Senate and the House.
Now, twenty, twenty pieces of legislation in a month.
If they do this, and not one of them will be a tax cut bill.
If they do this, you know, Obama will may not be able to protect the peasants with the pitchforks.
If they do this, this this will be a naked expression of disrespect and up yours as a statement from the Democrats to voters.
And it won't bother them.
And then Old Barry is in Madison, Wisconsin.
Go back to the old Stomping Grounds, had a bunch of really fun times during the campaign there.
Washington Post, Obama looks to re-energize the Ute vote, get late Democrat surge for midterms, and Obama steps onto a grass quad at the University of Wisconsin today, he'll deliver a newly tailored, more personalized campaign appeal aimed at ginning up enthusiasm.
Right.
And he's going to do that.
You stop being so lethargic.
Stop whining.
Get out there and love me again.
Get out there and act like you love me again.
The only thing about that might work, it's not like any of these kids has anything to do other than go to class.
They can't find they don't have jobs, snertly.
Well, if um it's a good point.
Who do they blame for not having jobs?
Who do they blame?
Look, we're talking about University of Wisconsin, probably Bush.
We'll see.
Anyway, I'm gonna go to the phones.
Birmingham, Alabama, we're gonna start.
This is Gail.
Thank you for calling.
You're up first today on the EIB network.
Good morning, Ross.
I really want to say that when this man took office in 2009, I as an independent more than willing.
More than willing to work with him and see him as our president.
Why?
Well, because as an independent, I'm willing to listen.
He got voted in, and he said, I'm going to do what no one's been able to do as our government has grown.
I'm willing to start doing things a different way.
But what does he do right out of the gate?
He didn't change any politics right out of the gate when he had opportunities to really speak to the American public.
He goes to different democratic groups, those caucuses, he's on TV, and he's making fun of.
And he laughed.
There's the tipping point, Rush, when he laughed.
It was like laughing at me.
Laughing at those of us who have a different point of view on what our country is.
You know, it's one thing to differ.
But he outright made fun of the Republicans, which is fine.
Go right ahead.
But he's laughing at all of us who differed.
So he doesn't need to try this on me anymore.
And little Axelrod, he can just go back where he came from because he's part of the problem.
This president has divided our nation absolutely because he is laughing at us.
And I, for one, will crawl over a broken glass to get to any election to vote for somebody that will absolutely believe in our America.
I know I sound like I'm giving a speech, but I am so proud of our country and so dissatisfied with this president and his minions.
Are you still an independent?
I cannot really, yes, absolutely, because I won't cut the so-called Republicans that are black after.
Wait a minute, wait a minute.
I've given them a lot of.
I have to I have I have to take commercial break, but I want to say something more to you.
Can you hang on for a few minutes?
Good.
It might not be pretty.
I guess it's safe to say that uh being a community organizer and agitator.
Now we can we can confirm this does not prepare anybody for being president for all of the country.
Rudy Giuliani was right to laugh at Obama during the Republican convention as a community organizer and think that somehow qualified him to be president.
We now know, quite obviously, that it does not.
