Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of The Rush 24 7 Podcast.
I don't care where you look today, folks.
I don't care where you look, anywhere in a state-controlled drive-by media, it is being reported a Democrat disaster.
Anywhere from 55 to 70, maybe 80 seats in the House, may not take the Senate, discombobulated out there, the Obamas are in Cleveland.
The Obamas are in Cleveland.
It's like Robert Byrd is a clansman going down to Mississippi for votes 50 years ago.
And you didn't do that.
You are in big trouble.
Great to have you here, Rush Limbaugh, the EIB network and the Limbaugh Institute for advanced conservative studies.
You know, I've been watching the media report all this.
I've been watching the media report how bad it's going to be.
Politico, it's a disaster.
Michael Barone, it's a disaster.
Charlie Cook, it's going to be a disaster.
And I'm looking at the media report this.
What do they think about this?
I mean, the everything they believe in is going to come crashing and burning, they say, in two weeks.
So I'm watching PMS NBC.
And you know what the big news there is?
Ken Buck in Colorado in a debate, Republican Senate candidate in a debate, said that homosexuality may be a choice.
And there's MSNBC.
Oh, this is the news of the day.
And I said, it's not the news of the day.
The news of the day is the economy, no jobs, Obama plundering and floundering.
The Democrat Party flattering, and yet there it is.
It's a, it's a it's a template.
It's a it's it's it's right out of the playbook.
Republicans is gay homosexuality, maybe a truck that go into full gear.
Nobody cares about it.
They're trying to, it's it's it's like they're living in Jurassic Park.
So I was talking to Mr. Snerdley today about this what I think is fascinating.
Everybody is reporting how everything they believe in is going to get trounced.
And yet they are not portraying their feelings.
And the reason they're not is because who in the world wants to admit that everything you believe is wrong?
So they got to come up with other explanations for it.
Well, if Obama just didn't get the message up.
Or um, well, Obama stupidly gave that interview to the New York Times.
Well, why go out there and do this naval gazing before the election?
Well, uh that Obama too smart for everybody.
Uh uh, the people too stupid for Obama.
Well, uh, the Obamas are so far ahead of everybody, we just can't, we're blinded.
We're blinded by the brilliant intelligence they all have, and it's just a shame.
They cannot admit that the people of this country in vast majorities are rejecting what they believe in precisely because of what they believe in.
It is substance, it is policy-based.
And of course, if if the people, the Democrats, the Liberals in the media report this, they didn't have to say that uh at the same token that uh, you know, that I was right.
Uh, and that I'm more than just an entertainer.
I mean, all of their templates go out the window if they report that their shellacking, their imminent shellacking is due to the fact that everybody hates what they believe in.
But you know in their hearts they know it.
You know, in their hearts and the ruling class knows that the vast majority of people in the country reject everything they believe in.
Now, it's not gonna make them change their mind.
I mean, they're just gonna get their backs further up.
Uh and and uh even angrier that they're being rejected.
But still it's a it's a fascinating thing to uh to watch this, to see it being reported.
Uh, it was just not even two years ago.
The exact opposite of this was supposed to happen.
We were supposed to be in an earthly heaven.
No discord, no angst, no poverty, not even people really poor.
Everybody's gonna be happy.
The rest of the world was gonna love us.
We were gonna be postpartisan, post-racist.
The racial divide, bigger than ever.
I, ladies and gentlemen, predicted it.
Uh, the racial divide, I mean, history is gonna, in fact, I will make a prediction.
History will show that the election of Obama, this period will be a giant step backwards in race relations.
And I pointed it out to civil rights dudes, well, uh predicted would profit handsomely from racial division.
The first black president was a potential gold mine to the civil rights guys.
Because everybody, at least half the country, theoretically always disagrees with the president.
How about being able to call half the country racist?
What's that going to do for your fundraising?
I mean, it's going to be huge.
It's going to be big.
All they had to do was hope Obama screwed up.
And he did.
Obama screws up, doesn't know what he's doing.
The bloom is off the rose.
The shine is off the apple or whatever.
And the civil rights dudes are right in there to profit from this, and they're ginning up all of this racial division on purpose.
Have you seen there's some pictures on the Drugs Report?
I I uh You just have to look I'm gonna hold them up here to the Ditto Cam.
I've got too many things to do here.
I have folks, these pictures.
I've I've they look demonic.
I and I don't say this lightly.
There are, there are a couple pictures.
I guess now it's kind of incumbent on me to find one, huh?
Let's see.
Uh, and show you on the on the ditto cam.
Did I print it out?
Uh you have to trust me on this.
There are two of them, and one of the just the eyes.
I'm not saying anything here.
They just look.
It is strange that these pictures would be released.
Uh and is it campaigning in there for Boston for a Duval-Petri?
Yes, Nerdley's looking at him now.
See what I mean?
Someone talking about.
It's uh very, very strange.
An American president has never had facial expressions like this.
At least we've never seen photos of an American president with facial expressions like this.
Now the Democrats continue with this assault on foreign money coming into the country via the Chamber of Commerce.
And right here it is, Los Angeles Times.com.
U.S. political ads stoke fears of foreigners.
Democrats and Republicans pounding each other on the airwaves or sounding a nativist tone, castigating opponents as supporters of foreign corporations, illegal immigrants, and workers abroad.
Now I'll tell you what's going on here.
This the Democrats are seeking, and the media are seeking an explanation for the upcoming shellacking.
And I think that the use of and the continual baseless charge, no evidence of this.
And even the state control media very uncomfortable with this charge of foreign money coming into the Chamber of Commerce.
This is being set up as the excuse why Obama and the Democrats lost.
Not because their policies are being rejected, not because they are dismal failures, not because of anything that really matters.
No, the Democrats simply couldn't compete with the onslaught of foreign money, to which the response is, oh, wait a minute.
Why is so much foreign money?
It's not, but why why so much foreign money coming into the country to oppose Obama when he was gonna make the rest of the world love us?
What's gone wrong here?
There's a piece in the uh Boston Herald by Marjorie Egan, President Obama's faithful losing hope, as the magic fades, and this is a slice and dice piece.
The president gives rousing speeches.
He did it again yesterday.
He bounded out under the Hines Convention center stage, all youth and vigor, open-necked white shirt, navy blazer, but he didn't sell me.
He didn't reassure me.
And he obviously knows he's having trouble connecting even with true believers.
He talked about this yesterday, the fun and feeling good and overwhelming optimism of inauguration day versus the undercurrent of skepticism now.
Remember?
Obama was JFK, RFK, and Martin Luther King rolled into one.
He was a once-in-a-generation superstar, the savior had been born.
Yes, we remember all of this.
No one had ever trod the American political soil.
Mike Obama.
Well, what happened?
Obama said yesterday, I know that hope may have faded as we grind it out.
I know it's hard to keep faith with another foreclosure sign hung on the house down the street.
You watch TV, you see, all you see are politicians tearing each other down.
The Republicans figured they could ride people's frustration and anger all the way to the ballot box.
Alas for Obama, it looks like Republicans figured right.
He's one emotion loose, or here's one emotion loose upon the land that Obama neglected to mention, and that's fear.
And he brings up these nuts, he's still using this metaphor that America is a car that Republicans drove into a ditch.
And then along came Obama and the Democrats.
Quote, we put our boots on, we went down into the ditch, and we started pushing that car out.
It was hot down there and muddy.
But we kept on pushing, and every ounce, every once in a while.
We looked up, and the Republicans are standing up there tanning themselves, slipping slurpees, and we say, hey, are you gonna help?
We're down here in a ditch, and the Republicans are up there sipping slurpies looking at us, trying to push the car out of the ditch.
Most people drive a car out of a ditch, Mr. Obama.
Uh few people going to haul it out or something, but very few people actually go down there and push a car out of it.
You call a tow truck.
You want the metaphor to be correct.
Anyway.
I don't think the president meant to undermine anybody's confidence with his wrong way out of the ditch story yesterday, but that's the nagging question, isn't it?
Even among the once Obama fight like me.
We're afraid he's not really getting us out of the ditch, and the ditch is getting deeper, and it's very scary stuff, and she's exactly right.
And that nails it.
While Obama's out there digging the car out of the ditch, making us believe he's making progress.
He's not.
We're in a ditch and we're getting deeper.
And his supporters are saying, you know what?
Obamaism isn't working.
We're not getting out of the ditch.
Yesterday, day two of Obama's pre-election pump up nervous Democrats tour.
It was as much about convincing us that we're in fact on the right road.
Obama reminded us he passed health care and Wall Street reform.
The stimulus supposedly saved us from a depression.
But you know what?
I read newspapers, I watch the news for a living, yet even I can't figure out if healthcare or Wall Street reform are really good for us or not.
This Marjorie Egan in the Boston Herald.
I want I want Obama to give me something concrete to hang on to so I can hang in myself.
I'm trying, Mr. President, but you don't make it easy.
So now we're back in the car in the ditch.
Obama said yesterday, even though the GOP didn't lift a finger, he and the Democrats kept pushing, and finally we got this car on level ground.
It's a little banged up.
Needs some body work, a tune-up, but at least it's finally out of the ditch.
And now, Obama said, a GOP says, excuse me, can we have the keys back?
See, we're not supposed to get back to Keys.
That's Obama's message this election season.
We're supposed to keep moving forward between our doubts and our hopes to push forward even when success is uncertain, and even when we know we're still in the ditch, not out of it like Obama says we are.
I would feel much better with some kind of evidence that Obama's GPS works.
Writes Marjorie Egan in the Boston Herald.
Meanwhile, Obama and Muchell are campaigning in Cleveland, as I mentioned.
The foreign money accusations continue to be made.
I think there's another aspect of this, too.
I think a lot of the rats are sinking the ship and fleeing the ship because they know subpoenas are coming.
I think that there are there are some Republicans in the House who are going to start doing oversight investigations to find out the kind of corruption that has been going on in this regime.
And a lot of people want to get out of there before this happens.
And the foreign money.
This this baseless charge is meant to explain all of what's coming, this massive defeat, and perhaps these massive investigations.
So we've set the table.
We got a lot to do here, folks.
Big tune-in day as America discovers what must be done, needs to be done, and will be done.
They find out here on the EIB network, as do you after this.
Yeah, I'm gonna get into the Maureen Dowd column in the New York Times and do chorus.
I mean, I know, I know exactly what happened to her.
I know when, I know more than I can tell you.
And I'm gonna turn the camera on in just a second, Brian.
I found a picture of Obama.
I think this is when he's being heckled by gays.
I got it, I'm I've positioned the camera.
I'm gonna turn on the ditto cam now.
I've found the picture.
I don't want to tease you.
This is it.
Now you look at that, folks.
Uh I I have never seen a picture of an American president look like that.
And I I'm not trying to frustrate those of you who uh are not watching the Ditto Cam today at Rushlimbo.com.
I'm just fulfilling a promise to those who are.
I mean, is it that look at that?
I mean, that that that's I mean, I feel like I'm watching the omen.
Um 666 and all that.
This is weird, weird, weird stuff.
Okay, I'm turning the ditto cam off.
I have to resize the screen now so that um it's not focused uh too much on my uh well, whatever.
All right, here we go.
One more there we go.
Now it's back on.
Welcome back.
El Rush Ball and the Excellence in Broadcasting Network, Maureen Dowd.
Folks, look, it's very simple.
Uh she has this piece in the New York Times yesterday that's just incoherent, rips into all these Republican women as mean girls.
Uh it's it's a sad, sad thing.
It's it's everybody's trying to figure out what happened to Marina Maureen Down.
She used to be funny, used to be appointment reading.
Uh what happened is that a guy she really had she was in love with, dumped her, and was mean to her.
Didn't just dump her, but did it in a mean, mean way.
And this she had everything invested in this guy.
And it's she hasn't been the same since this happened.
If I didn't have the scruples I have, I'd give you every detail because I know every detail because I know the guy.
I have heard the guy explain the story.
And I got livid.
I was livid when I heard the story being the guy told me how much fun it was.
I said, gee, fiz.
I'm supposed to be the guy with no heart here.
I'm a conservative, I'm supposed to be the guy that has no compassion.
Uh oh, yeah, big time liberal.
Oh, no, no question.
Absolutely.
Um at any rate.
Just it's just a sad thing out there.
Very, very sad thing.
Well, everybody's trying to figure out what went wrong.
Uh what's changed Maureen Dowd?
It's something that happens to everybody who really just gets heartbroken.
No, not a hat, not just no, and certainly, you know, well, he always descended in that direction.
She was not having a heart a hot flash uh when when writing.
It's speaking of that, by the way, uh Barney Frank.
His boyfriend heckled Sean uh B Lot.
We have the audio soundbite.
This is Thursday night in Boston after a debate, WGBH TV studios.
The Republican nominee Sean B. Lot speaking with reporters, had this exchange with uh a heckler who has been identified as Barney Frank's boyfriend.
You know, we can send you some.
I'll get used to it, dude.
If you want to be a Congressman, this is the case.
Yeah, but you're nothing.
You're with Barney, right?
So that's cool.
It sure is.
At least if we can get the Congress back.
You know what's funny at all.
Are you serious?
Yeah, that's not funny.
You just tried two jokes and they weren't even funny.
You're really standing here and heckling me?
Is that really why you're doing?
That is what was happening.
Uh they're taking money.
If it this race, folks, this race is close.
The Democrats are having to spend money on this race.
Um, and they Democrats are having to go to Delaware.
Obama invite me, have to go to Delaware to campaign against Christine O'Donnell, the disaster of Harry Reid and Sharon Angle, that we talked about last week, and now the Obamas, Michelle and Barack are in Cleveland.
These are strongholds.
These are places that they pay you to vote for you.
I mean, this is this is unprecedented, and it's making a lot of people think that this could be a bigger wipeout than anybody is even daring to predict.
And it's all based on policy.
This is the wonderful thing.
It's all based on substance.
It's all based on a vast majority of the American people rejecting ideas.
Rejecting Obamaism.
Now, this guy, Barney Frank's boyfriend is named uh uh James Reddy.
The heckler, and he's gotta be under a lot of stress.
Because look at what he's learned here.
He's learned that his boyfriend, he's learned Barney Frank's seat is not safe.
You'd be panicked too.
Hey, welcome back.
Great to have you, Rush Limbaugh at a brand new week of broadcast excellence from the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
You see what the um the big uh weekend movie was over the uh past three days, Jackass 3D.
Jackass 3D was the number one movie over the weekend.
I don't know, folks.
It uh no, no, no.
This is not a movie about the economy.
Seems to me Jackass No.
Has them beat by a mile, folks, in terms of well, anyway that you wish to look at it.
On the foreign money business, we had earlier the LA Times continuing the myth, helping to create the storyline, feed the beast that the Republicans in the Chamber of Commerce are benefiting solely from the influx of foreign money.
The Washington Post tried to get in on this big thing.
PACs linked to foreign companies legally donate millions to U.S. campaigns.
Legally.
Now the headline leaves out something very important.
Donations to foreign companies PACs must come from U.S. citizens or residents.
And they make up a small fraction of overall political giving.
So the Washington Post wanted to get in on this, and as they researched it, they found out it's a non-story.
They found out it's a total, well, not lie, it's it's just it's just a distraction.
They also learned this.
One of the leading contributors to federal candidates among U.S. subsidiaries is BAE Systems, the Arlington County-based arm of the British Defense and Aerospace Company.
Records show that BAE's PAC has given nearly $600,000 to candidates in this cycle, 55% going to Democrats.
The top recipients include Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, Democrat in New York, the rubber stamp for Chuck Hugh Schumer, and uh Senator Richard Burr, Republican North Carolina.
So as they attempted to move the story along, that the Republicans were benefiting from foreign money, the Chamber of Commerce, and Obama and Axlrod are demanding that the Chamber prove that they're not having in terrible amounts of money influx.
The Washington Post learns that more foreign money is going to Democrats than Republicans.
So that's kind of out the window.
Mark Shields.
Mark Shields on Friday accused the White House of making up the story about the Chamber of Commerce funneling foreign money into Republican campaigns.
He's on Inside Washington on PBS.
Mark Maxie Shields said of the issue the administration and many of their media minions have been harping on for over a week.
Quote, it was absolutely fallacious.
On their part, they made it up.
The White House did.
And that was that.
It's at Newsbusters.org.
Mark Shields accuses the White House of making up a story.
And then the topic on the TV show quickly changes.
Ho hum, no big deal.
They made it up.
And they carried it.
Mark Maxie Shields, hey, yeah, they made it up.
This takes us.
Let's move to audio soundbite number 11.
David Brooks.
Last Friday night PBS News Hour with Jim Lara.
David Brooks and Mark Maxie Shields doing analysis.
And during a discussion about this New York Times piece, the magazine interview with Obama, Jim Lara said, speaking of President Obama, there's this big piece in your newspaper Sunday magazine, Brooks, already been read by everybody, at least anybody who's got an advanced copy, and who is interested in politics about President Obama.
What do you think of the piece, Mr. Brooks?
I found it depressing.
I found it depressing on a number of levels.
The lesson I got was that they're they've got it's not their fault.
They've done the right things.
The country is not ready for us.
Washington is not good enough for us.
After Bill Clinton suffered a political setback in 94, he did some real thinking and some real adjusting of how to adjust.
I would say, at least judging from that piece, this process of thought and rethinking has not started in this White House.
Precisely.
They're not going to moderate.
Uh, like many ranking Republicans believe he will, and it's all based on the uh usual storyline in Washington that people want to get re-elected.
So the Republican, the ranking Republican theory is Obama's gonna get shellacked, and he's going to read that as people don't like his policies.
Since he wants to be re-elected, he's going to have to move away from his hard-left ideas.
David Brooks reading a New York Times Sunday magazine, I don't see this happening.
Now, Brooks, I mean we must be honest here, Brooks is one of these people that drank the Kool-Aid at the very beginning of this.
Brooks is a guy who said of Obama, I like the crease in his pants.
He's smart.
He's uh an intellectual, he's like us.
Um, not a not a radical, very, very, very moderate guy.
And so Brooks reads the New York magazine piece and finds it depressing.
It's none of this is their fault.
They've done the right things.
The country's not ready for them.
Washington is not good for them, good enough for them.
Now, how is it that a brilliant intellectual like Brooks could not see that at the beginning, and we could.
All of us, we knew, and we didn't even have to go to dinner with Obama like Brooks did at George Will's house.
We knew Obama was a hard left radical.
There was no question about it.
None of us were obsessed with hope that he would abandon that and move and govern from the precious center where these intellectuals seem to think all the right-thinking people are moderates.
So Obama, he's moved on from blaming Bush.
Now he's blaming you.
He's blaming a stupid voters.
Washington's not ready for him.
That piece in the New York Times Sunday magazine actually said, I got if if if Obama can't be great here, nobody can.
If Obama can't do it, nobody can.
And it's not as though, I mean, he had supermajorities in the House and Senate.
It's not as though the opposition could have stopped him.
They couldn't.
Not legislatively.
But he couldn't even unify his own side.
And the political today has this story, Democrats on health reform.
Let us fix it.
Nervous Democrats gasping, grasping for a new message on their party's health care reform bill.
Give us another shot.
We'll get it right this time.
I want to reform it and fix it and make sure it works for small businesses and their families, said Alex Gianulius, the Democrat seeking Obama's old Senate seat on Meet the Press yesterday.
If you can fix it, Democrats and Republicans agree on six or seven items.
That's a pretty pretty darn good start, said the West Virginia governor and Democrat Senate candidate Joe Manchin on Fox News.
I'd like to fix health care.
Democrat Kentucky Senate uh candidate Jack Conway said in the debate last week with Republican contender uh Rand Paul.
He wants to repeal it, and I I think that's a stark difference.
Even House Majority Leader Stenny Hoyer, who helped Russell votes for Obamacare in March, told MSNBC last month we have three years to make it better before it fully goes into effect.
So the Democrats are running here, admitting it's a debacle.
The Democrats want to reform health care reform.
It's kind of like they drove the health care car in a ditch, and now they want the keys back.
I mean, you could throw Obama's analogy and metaphor right at them.
Democrats on health reform, let us fix it before it fully goes into effect.
Nobody on the Democrat side is running on the accomplishment.
Nobody on the Democrat side is saying, look what we did, vote for us.
What they're saying is, look what we did, let us fix it.
Stunning.
I love it.
Another political story, the Democrats' brutal weekend, more bad polls, more bad fundraising numbers, more dreary talk on the Sunday shows.
It added up to a brutal weekend for the Democrats, as the consensus among election analysts took a turn for the worse over the past 48 hours.
Analyst Stu Rothenberg pegs a number of competitive seats at 100.
Charlie Cook says it's 97.
And virtually all of those seats are held by Democrats.
Rothenberg is predicting a likely Republican gain of 40 to 50 seats with 60 seats possible.
Republicans needing a net pickup of 39 seats to take the House.
One House Democrat, reflecting widespread conversations with his colleagues, guessed someday that his party will lose 50 seats.
Many, he said, are calling with urgent pleas for more contributions.
The Senate may stay in Democrat hands, but only by the narrowest of margins, so slim that it'll take a handful of moderates from both parties to decide whether anything gets done.
Well, that's just wonderful.
This all equals gridlock, which is what we want.
We want grid luck.
So does the market, by the way.
The Democrat majority so slim, it will make a handful of moderates from both parties the only people who will decide whether anything gets done in the Senate.
Go back to David Brooks.
Again on the news hour with Jim Lara on Sunday or Friday night, they're talking about the New York Times Sunday magazine piece.
And uh Mark Maxie Shields says to Brooks, how how would you like to be a Democrat member of the House fighting for your life right now?
Getting hit over the head for having voted for the stimulus and have the president say in the New York Times Sunday magazine there's no such thing as a shovel-ready job.
Yeah, I shouldn't have confessed this.
He said this to me off the record about a year ago.
It was obvious.
I mean, you're trying to build a stimulus package, and when they were trying to build it, believe me, they would have loved to have filled it with infrastructure jobs.
Uh but the projects just didn't exist.
They couldn't do it, they couldn't find them.
This is from a guy who loved Obama.
This is from a guy, supposed conservative columnist in the New York Times, who now admits that Obama told him off the record.
Hey, by the way, Dave, you know what?
There aren't any shovel-ready jobs.
We're just saying that, because I know these stupid Americans will go for it.
It's a way to sell it, but there are any shovel-ready jobs.
And we're just now hearing about, just now hearing about it from a New York Times columnist.
And he said, Yeah, I wish I could have reported it, but it was off the record to me.
Peter Baker, who wrote the magazine piece, got it on the record from Obama.
And Brooks was praising him.
Now, okay, Brooks a columnist slash reporter, and something said to him off the record, I understand he's going to protect that.
But shouldn't that at least flavor his opinion pieces on Obama in the ensuing year?
If he knows that Obama is lying to the American people about shovel-ready jobs, uh number one sales slogan for infrastructure to get the stimulus passed.
Shouldn't that make Brooks suspicious of other things?
It didn't, because during the whole year he kept writing glowingly of Obama and holding out hope that Obama would be this miracle man everybody as being.
So what good is David Brooks?
He knew it a year ago.
He knew substantively that Obama's a cynic.
Arrogant, filled with contempt.
And yet he writes of him in the exact opposite way.
Brilliant, forward-thinking, moderate, willing to bend with the times.
All these dreamy things that these moderate intellectuals fantasize about.
Which, of course, by virtue of being fantasies never come true.
Back after this.
New Rasmussen poll just out.
Sharon Angle at 50%.
It's a magic number, Dingy Harry at 47%.
By the way, speaking of Dingy Harry, I think it's audio soundbite number 10.
Let me find it to be sure, but I think, yes, it's audio soundbite number 10.
Last night in Las Vegas at an early vote, GO TV Get Out of the Vote Event, Dingy Harry spoke and said this.
When Barack Obama was elected president, he found himself in a hole so deep that he couldn't see the outside world.
It was like the Chilean miners.
But he, being the man that he is, rolled up his sleeves and said, I'm gonna get us out of this hole.
No, difference, uh, dingy Harry is we're still in the shaft.
Obama, if you're gonna compare him to Chilean miners, we're still down there, and he's still down there.
He hasn't gotten anybody out, much less us, certainly not himself, is still digging.
He's digging the mine shaft deeper, Dingy Harry.
He's admittedly in a ditch.
He's not out of the ditch.
This is a definitely, definitely bad analogy for Dingy Harry to bring up.
We get it out of the shaft on November 2nd.
Obama's still gonna be in it.
Obama couldn't get himself out of a mine.
His life depended on it.
Here's the Mark Maxey Shields soundbite.
Inside Washington, the syndicated show.
During the roundtable, the host, Gordon Peterson...
Uh talking about uh this Chamber of Commerce attack, foreign money, and all of that.
Well, uh, it was absolutely uh it was absolutely uh fallacious on that part.
I mean, they made it up, the White House did.
I mean, is there some foreign money?
Perhaps, but that isn't a story.
The real story is domestic money.
Yeah, they made it up.
Well, um, White House made it up.
Uh, let's move on now.
Next topic.
Made it up.
No non-story here.
To the phones, Minneapolis, Barb.
Great to have you on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hi, Rush.
Thanks.
It's an honor to be speaking with you today.
Thank you very much.
I just have a bone to pick with Michelle Obama, preferably a big fat old steak bone.
I saw her out on the campaign trail this weekend, and it looks like she's gained about 30 pounds and oh geez.
Oh, jeez, what a what a great first call of the day.
I'm glad I'm glad you said it and not me.
Where has she gained all this weight?
What did you see?
How dare her talk about nutrition and come into Minneapolis and have a big meeting with General Mills, Landa Lakes, and Hormel, and tell them how they need to market and change all of their um their food,
and uh in order for this weight loss program or whatever else it is, and walk, be as arrogant as she is, and walk and stand up on the podium wherever she is, looking like she is.
She needs to lose 30 pounds before she opens her mouth to talk about nutrition and weight.
Um look, as as one woman looking at another Barb, uh, where has she gained 30 pounds?
What what what are you seeing?
Uh she was in a pant suit, she and she looks like she's gained it all over.
And um, yeah, but I am all about nutrition.
I'm all about uh looking fit, being fit, but you don't stand up on a podium and come in and tell General Mills, oh uh the quote in the paper, if they don't change, it will be the government or you most certainly do if you are a Marxist totalitarian type.
You most certainly do.
Okay, so she said pantsuit.
He's focused on below the uh below the waist, uh, Michelle's gained 30 pounds.
Uh you figure out where it must be.
She said it, folks, not I didn't.
She did.
You know, it was just a week ago.
Maybe not even a week ago, the drive-by is the state controlled media all talking about, hey, it's not so bad for the Democrats.
Remember, there was a surge.
The Democrats were coming back now.
Just a week later, it's gonna be a debacle.
It was a horrible weekend.
What happened?
How is this explained?
Easily.
Easily.
Why does the media shift on it?
I'll tell you why when we come back.
El Rushbow, first hour in the can.
Back before you know it.
