Time Text
Yes, America's Anchorman is away and this is your undocumented anchor man sitting in, no supporting paperwork whatsoever.
The lame duck session of the Rush Limbaugh Show.
Guest hosts, guest hosts a go-go here.
I'll be here tomorrow and then we have a best of rush for Christmas Eve and three hours of EIB approved Christmas music which will be there over the weekend.
And is that Christmas Day, Mike?
And then it could be Christmas Day or it could be what Americans call December the 26th or as they say in Britain, Canada and Australia and New Zealand, Boxing Day.
But it may not be an official holiday in the United States, but it will seem like it if your station is airing the three hours of Rush-approved Christmas music for your listening pleasure.
Did you see this?
This got a bit of play.
Diane Sawyer had the three big intelligence honchos, national security honchos, on her show.
She had James R. Clapper, the director of national intelligence.
She also had John Brennan, this rather fearsome looking guy, and she had Janet Incompaterno, the Secretary of Homeland Security.
And Janet Incompeterno got a bit of play because she said that we're protecting you 24-7, 364 days a year.
So if you happen to know, if any jihadists listening out there, if you happen to know the one day of the year that Janet Incompeterno is not protecting you, you could win a brand new Honda Civic.
Just call the Department of Homeland Security now, and if you get the answer right, you could win a brand new one Honda Civic.
Just call 1-800-PAT Down.
Any jihadists listening out there, if you've got your cell phone listening in the cave in Waziristan, call the Department of Homeland Security now and you could win that Honda Civic.
But more interesting than that, more revealing than that, was this absolutely amazing moment when Diane Sawyer asked the Director of National Intelligence about the arrests of these 12 terror suspects in London, which is the biggest plot in two years to be busted up by MI5 and Special Branch in the United Kingdom.
Big thing.
Been the headlines and all the news, been in all the newspapers, been on the TV, been on the radio.
Diane Sawyer asked the Director of National Intelligence about this, and he has no idea what she's talking about.
He gives this blank deer at the headlights look.
He just looks puzzled.
He looks stumped.
He looks bewildered.
And then John Brennan jumps in and tries to help the guy out by giving him a clue.
He goes, oh, you mean the arrests of the 12 individuals by the British this morning?
And Clapper goes, oh, he still doesn't know anything about it.
It's still news to him.
Diane Sawyer comes back to it and says, I'm a little surprised that you don't know about London, Director Clapper.
And Director Clapper again looks blank and say, oh, I'm sorry, I didn't.
And then John Brennan again jumps in to protect the guy.
This is like where you've got a really bad double act.
Really, a couple of bad.
You know, you go and see a two-handed play on Broadway and the one guy hasn't learned his lines and the other guy keeps trying to feed him.
Like John Brennan keeps trying to feed Director Clapper, the Director of National Intelligence of the United States of America.
And so John Brennan tries to help him and goes, oh, you referenced London, Diane, but you didn't say anything about arrests.
Like Diane Sawyer just mentioned London, so she might have been referring to, you know, the Royal Wedding or Elton John or who else?
You know, it could be anything going on over there.
And he still looks completely blank, this guy.
Watch this.
If you get a chance to see this video on the internet or on the TV, have a look at it.
This guy, this was the biggest terrorism story of the week.
This guy, being interviewed by Diane Sawyer, the director of national intelligence of the United States of America, hasn't a clue what it's about or what she's referring to.
And when John Brennan jumps in to feed the guy, feed the guy the info, he still doesn't have a clue what she's referring to.
We've been talking a lot about bureaucratization in the last couple of hours.
This is the bureaucratization of intelligence and national security.
We've massively expanded the intelligence bureaucracy since 9-11.
So there's far more agencies with far more directors of this and directors of that reporting to far more people, sending out more and more memos, sending out more and more information, sending out more and more huge thick folders of files and files and files and files.
And the guy at the top of the pyramid, the director of national intelligence, James R. Clapper, has no clue about the biggest terrorism story of the week.
And this is the way it's going to be.
This is the way it's going to be the next time there's a terrorist, successful terrorist attack on the United States.
That the bureaucratization of national security, it will again, they'll have all these systems.
They'll have put the bureaucracy in place.
They'll have put the bureaucratic systems in place.
And when the terrorists smash their way through it and kill a whole big bunch of people, it'll take the brain-dead bureaucracy by surprise as usual.
In the end, the bureaucratization of the United States is a bigger existential threat than terrorism.
You can see that.
There's this, I think the Cato Institute has it posted on its website, an amazing picture of a man in an American airport.
He's wearing blue jeans.
The blue jeans are halfway down his thighs and his briefs are visible.
And there's a man, TSA agent, kneeling in front of him.
They look like some crummy bus and truck roadshow production of the Bill and Monica the musical.
This TSA agent on his knees in front of this guy with his pants halfway down his knees.
This is the absurdity.
We have erected a huge bureaucratic apparatus of security theater, and yet the director of national intelligence of the United States of America does not know the biggest terrorism story of the week.
And I hope this isn't going to be like the Pandy Bomber on Christmas Day.
Do you remember last year in the run-up to Christmas, we had the Pandy Bomber?
And he flew in.
That is why, by the way, we now, our response to that, because a guy boards a plane in Amsterdam and he's got explosives in his brief.
So because of that, if you're in Columbus, Ohio and you're going on a business trip, you've got to have a TSA agent poking around.
You've got to feel the firm grip of the national security state on your genitalia because some guy boarded the plane whose father had already reported him to the CIA.
His father had reported him to the CIA.
He was on the no-fly list, we were told, but then it was explained that in fact he wasn't really on the no-fly list.
He was on a kind of standby list for the no-fly list.
You know, you can't just get on the no-fly list.
I mean, sometimes it's fully booked, but you can be put on the standby list to get on the no-fly list.
And he was apparently on the standby list for the no-fly list.
He had been reported by the CIA.
He was still allowed to board the plane.
And he got all the way to Detroit.
And the only reason that a bunch of people didn't die and a bunch of people on the ground weren't killed is because he used a damp mat.
He went to the bathroom and he got his matches a little wet and he didn't light up his underpants sufficiently effectively.
They were just sort of damp and smoldering.
And people in adjoining seats pounded the bejesus out of him.
And Janet Ncompetano said the system worked.
The system worked.
And Barack Obama holed up in Hawaii and didn't say anything for days.
And you think to yourself, well, they're going to do something about it.
What they did is they loosed the TSA to poke around in 300 million sets of American genitals when you're flying home to see your family in Pocatello.
But the director of national intelligence of the United States of America looks like completely blank like a deer in the headlamps when Diane Sawyer asks him about the biggest terrorism story of the week.
So I hope that Al-Qaeda, these rumors, these gossip, this chatter we're getting that Al-Qaeda are planning something big for Christmas Day, because they do.
They want a big symbolic thing.
They'd like a big symbolic thing for Christmas Day.
They regard this as a religious war and they would regard that as a symbolic victory, killing infidels on Christmas Day.
But the idea that the director of national intelligence presiding over the man in the pyramid, at the pyramid of the intelligence bureaucracy, the man who decides at what point does he have to pick up a phone and call the White House and get the president involved on this, that this guy hasn't a clue about the biggest terrorism story of the week is absolutely remarkable.
And in the end, as I said, this is simply just the bureaucratization of the national security threat.
And that, in the end, will be a much bigger threat.
The only thing that worked on 9-11, we've learned all the wrong lessons from 9-11.
On 9-11, all the guys who followed the bureaucratic procedures on the first three planes died.
Do you remember when they got the FAA transcripts?
Somebody is calling from the plane and says to the person at the FAA, says, we need to do something here.
And the FAA, the person in the FAA says, I'm sorry, everybody just left the room.
Everybody just left the room.
That's bureaucracy for you.
Because it no longer fit the 1970s hijack procedures.
Nobody knew what to do.
So they all left the room.
It's in the official transcripts of the 9-11 Commission.
Oh, I'm sorry, everybody just left the room.
That's the bureaucrats' response, the bureaucracy's response to 9-11.
And now all we've done is we've made the bureaucracy even bigger.
We've got even more agencies.
We've got even more bureaucratic memos.
And we've got a director of national intelligence who doesn't know the biggest terrorism story of the week.
1-800-282-2882 Mark Stein in for rush on the EIB network.
Ah, the Holly and the Ivy.
Are they on the endangered species list yet?
I do hope so.
The state of Alaska says it intends to sue the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service over protections recently put in place to help polar bears faced with the effects of climate change.
Polar bears are listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act.
I don't quite understand this, by the way, because in the Canadian Arctic, there are more polar bears than ever.
So maybe polar bears are just moving from the high-tax United States of America to the economically liberal Canadian Arctic.
And they're going there for the free health care and they're just voting with their feet.
I mean, why?
Yeah.
But but polar bears are booming in the Canadian Arctic.
There's more.
You've got polar bear everywhere you need them.
There's a polar bear there for you.
If you miss the first polar bear, there'll be another one along in a couple of minutes.
They're like buses now.
Yeah, well, that's the other thing is that I love the way Mr. Snurdy points out that the polar bears have been mating with, they've been like, they swing both ways.
It's like the whole don't ask, don't tell scene has caught on in the Canadian Arctic now.
And they're like, I don't know what it is.
They're like dating grizzlies, is it?
They're dating grizzly bears.
And so you're getting mutations, polar bears and grizzly bears, Piszly bears, I think, or whatever they're calling them.
And a, no, no, no, not a black bear.
I have black bears in New Hampshire, and I would not advise any black bear to date a polar bear.
I don't want to get, oh, no, now we're getting into the, we're getting into the ursine version of driving Miss Nancy, aren't we?
Sheila Jackson Lee is saying, I don't want miscegenation between polar bears and black bears.
Yes.
No, we'll have coffee-coloured, we'll have coffee-colored bears.
There'll be high yallers or whatever they used to call them.
They'll be like, you know, what's her name?
What the Oscar a couple of years ago was in the Halley Berry.
That's where we're going to have Halley Berry bears.
Bears like berries.
They go foraging for berries.
Now these new bears will be foraging for Halley Berry.
Okay, now.
Yeah, we did take a while to get that.
It wasn't really worth it in the end.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Anyway, the bears, the state of Alaska.
The state of Alaska.
Yeah, bears are...
Well, there's two points here.
Bears are...
Bears...
Polar bears have got dissatisfied with the polar bear dating scene.
So they're dating grizzlies.
And the environmental crowd are mad about this.
Isn't this what you scientific rationalist people like, you know, not like us right-wing social conservatives speaking in tongues?
Isn't this what you guys call the theory of evolution?
Why are you attempting to interfere with the theory of evolution?
If a polar bear wants to date a grizzly bear, if he wants to date a New Hampshire black bear, if he wants to date Halley Berry, who cares?
Why attempt to get mixed up and insert, wants to have in effect government regulation?
I mean, this is actually segregation.
You couldn't do this.
This is what we used to do to people in the southern states of the United States.
They now want to do to the poor polar bear.
The polar bear might want to, wants to, you know, swing both ways and he's not allowed to.
That's right.
You don't want to interrupt a polar bear if he gets too far along that process.
Anyway, the state of Alaska says it intends to sue the United States Fish and Wildlife Service because they've designated 187,000 square miles of critical habitat in the Arctic to help the species recover.
And it includes, of course, as is the way of government, it includes this 187,000 square miles, includes areas that polar bears have never had any interest of being in.
There's never been any polar bears in this region.
There's no evidence that any polar bear wants to live in half these places, but they've now designated it as essential to the polar bear habitat.
Again, again, well, they've just said that this is like bear country.
It's like they could do it, they could do it to the West Village here in New York City.
They could say this is now a designated polar bear habitat.
And there's no evidence the polar bears, even these ones who are interested in mating with other species, want to hang out in the West Village of New York.
But this is what they've done in Alaska.
They've designated, the federal government has designated 187,000 square miles as crucial polar bear habitat, even though polar bears have never shown the slightest interest in living anywhere near half these places.
The polar bears are all in the Canadian Arctic, going to get the free health care that Steve from Oklahoma was hymn so beautifully a couple of hours ago.
And again, this gets to the point.
It's the regulatory state.
The regulatory state can do anything it likes.
Let's go to Dave in Madison, Wisconsin.
Dave, you are live on the Rush Limbaugh Show.
Great to have you with us.
Thank you very much.
I always enjoy your guest host.
I'm wondering as part of the Operation Comeback Kid and our government's effort to keep us all safe, if we'll see Obama fly the rainbow banner and tell us mission accomplished, maybe a photo op on a battleship somewhere.
Oh, with the with the don't ask, don't tell.
Yep, I think it's about time for the mission accomplished.
Give it all a thumbs up.
Yeah, I think he should.
I think he should actually, in some of the Lusha parts of Waziristan, I think he should maybe fly out there and fly his rainbow banner and say that now this was the critical, this was the critical issue facing the United States military.
Don't ask, don't tell.
But we're not all there yet, Dave.
Apparently, there's restrictions still on transgendered people serving in the military.
So there are still important battles to be won, Dave.
How soon do you think we'll see transgender discrimination end in the military?
Oh, it shouldn't be too long.
I'm sure it'll be before the war ends.
No, no, that's, I think there was, I wasn't that, I think that was in the British Army.
They sent some guy into Sierra Leone to pacify some bit of upcountry trouble with a couple of years ago.
And then the guy flew back to London and had like a sex change.
And then when the tribesman, when he went back, he was, you know, he started as General Fred and went back as General Cynthia.
And was surprised the tribesman didn't accord him the same respect.
Well, these are problems.
These are problems they didn't have to cope with in the old days, Dave.
You just got to get with the program.
But you're right, maybe a mission accomplished banner.
I would have loved to see President Obama standing on the prow of a battleship with the mission accomplished banner.
Thanks, Jacob.
And have a Merry Christmas.
Have a Merry Christmas, Dave.
Good to talk with you.
Yeah, Don't Ask, Don't Ask, Don't Tell.
You know, the new Don't Ask, Don't Tell is this thing that Congressman Peter King is doing, where he's going to hold hearings into radical Islam.
And this is a serious point, really.
Major Hassan, when he gunned down all those people at Fort Hood last year, that was basically the Muslim equivalent of Don't Ask, Don't Tell.
Whatever you feel about it for the gay guys, Don't Ask, Don't Tell on radical Islam is much more of a problem in political correctness terms in the United States military bureaucracy these days.
And Congressman Peter King from New York is going to, he's already being denounced as the new Joe McCarthy, so that tells you he must be doing something right.
He's going to be holding hearings into Islamic extremism in the new Congress.
Great to be with you in the days before Christmas.
There's a Christmas present waiting for every listener to the Rush Limbaugh Show, and it's completely free.
It's the new Rush Limbaugh app for iPhone and iPad.
It's only been out 24 hours, and it's already the number one most popular app in Apple's news category.
New York Times is number four.
Fox News comes in at big hit position number three.
CNN is number two, but the number one news app is the Rush Limbaugh app.
It's only been out 24 hours.
And already, in response, the FCC has voted to federally regulate apps, which shows how seriously they are taking the new Rush Limbaugh app.
But if you go to rushlimbo.com, you can download the new app and you'll be able to watch Rush live on the DittoCam from your iPhone and your iPad.
And you can get the morning update in video.
You can get lots of other videos there, including video from the TV show back in the 90s.
You can listen to audio live.
You can read transcripts.
You can email Rush.
You can do everything with the Rush Limbaugh app.
If you just go to Apple's store and search for Rush, you'll find it.
It's the number one there.
And they take it so seriously that the FCC are now federally regulating apps.
Because God forbid there should be any single activity in this country, whether it's polar bear habitat or grade school bake sales or California porn movie shoots.
God forbid that there should be any activity that is not regulated to death in the United States of America.
So they're now responding to the Rush app by introducing federally regulated apps.
And I said there were three people, three Americans who had decided that they were going to regulate the internet of 310 million Americans.
And I got the name of the third one wrong.
In fact, it wasn't Commissioner Meredith Atwell Baker who voted for it.
The three who voted for it were the chairman, Julia Skenikowski, Commissioner Mignon Clyburn, who is the daughter of Commissioner James Clyburn.
And as we said, she's a very eminent chair of the National Association of Federally Regulated Federal Regulators.
So she certainly has the experience to bring to the job.
And then the third one who voted for this power grab is Commissioner Michael J. Copps.
Learn these guys' names.
These aren't people who run for election.
That's for chumps.
Why would you bother to do that?
You're going to spend your whole time raising money, going to chicken dinners with these voters.
Who the hell would want to do that?
Instead, just become a federal bureaucrat and you can do what you like to people in the dark.
You'll be in some comfortable office in some agency nobody's ever heard of somewhere in Washington, D.C., and you can have a lifetime career telling Americans how to live their lives.
This is the slow-motion rollback, and actually not so slow, of 1776.
These three people, these three people, despite a court telling them that they didn't have the power to regulate the internet, despite Congress, 300 members of the House of Representatives telling them not to regulate the Internet, these three people decided that what America needs as it slides off the cliff is federally regulated apps.
Hallelujah.
Mike in Sarasota, Florida.
Mike, you're live on the Rush Limbaugh Show.
Great to have you with us.
Hey, Merry Christmas there, Mark.
Merry Christmas.
Could you sound more seasonal?
You sounded like kind of a bit downbeat on the old.
Hey, Merry Christmas.
Little sinus problem.
Oh, right.
Okay, okay.
I hope you got your Christmas goose while over the holidays there.
A Christmas goose.
A Christmas grope.
A Christmas grope.
Have a hopey gropey Christmas.
Yeah, that's right.
And Grandma Got a Pat Down at the airport.
I love that song.
I love that song.
Grandma Got a Pat Down at the Airport.
Lovely, lovely.
I understand what the FCC was good for.
Right.
Well, when they first started, when Marconi made the radios, they were like the fleece Nazis, you know.
Right.
Now, they're selling all the frequencies of the airwaves.
If you look around, you got your garage door opener, your cell phones, your portable phones, anything that's broadband.
And that's the only thing that was left is they didn't have the internet.
So where else can you get and make some money for the government?
Is okay, we're going to start taxing these, but we've got to do this real slowly.
And this is what they're scheming up.
That's all this is.
Yeah, and you're right that when this business started, they were in effect selling the public air or licensing the public airwaves.
The amateur radio, we used to have a really huge bandwidth that we could talk on.
And every year it keeps getting smaller and smaller because they're selling portions of them radio bands to all these companies.
And they go in there and say, you know, hey, we're going to make this here gizmo.
And it's going to run in this frequency or somewhere like that.
And they go, let's see, come back in about three months.
It'll probably be about $3 billion.
We'll give you a license.
Right.
And it's good for 10 years.
And that's what they're doing.
But you know, you know, and you're right that everything that uses a frequency has to be allocated by the FCC.
But that is not the issue on the Internet.
What the Internet means is that they're going to be determining which websites load faster, which websites load slower, and you're going to have a much closer, in effect, it's going to be a regulation of content.
And what that is going to do is it will be the usual thing is that people just don't want.
It's like the same thing with the fairness doctrine.
People say, well, what would be wrong with the fairness doctrine?
Because it would mean you'd have to have, you know, three hours of rush, and then you'd have three hours of some liberal hosts.
But that would all get incredibly complicated for every station manager across the country to operate.
So in the end, they'd all go to soft and easy favorites for 24 hours and you'd get the Celine Dee on Christmas album round the clock because it's because it's easier.
Thours of rush and they go through the three hours of liberal.
Everybody would be turning their radios off anyway.
So what's no, exactly.
That's true.
But that's why the only way, the advantage to bringing in the fairness doctrine is that it makes political talk too complicated to manage.
And that's why people would rather do the Celine Dee on Christmas album.
And it will be the same thing with the Internet.
Once you have government regulation of the Internet, and people will set up search engines to look for problematic words or whatever, and those words will get more and more broadly defined.
And eventually you will just have bland showbiz pap out there that is no threat to the regime.
Because the Obama administration is no friend of free speech.
It has no commitment to the First Amendment whatsoever.
And that's why this is a serious threat.
So in the end, the pretext is that they've got to sell the bandwidth, they've got to license the bandwidth, they've got to control the bandwidth.
But in the end, it's about controlling the government.
That's the regulatory state.
It's all about control.
This ridiculous thing, a couple of years ago in Pennsylvania, this guy busts into a church supper and he discovers that there are seven octogenarian ladies who've made homemade pies.
And he says if these pies were not made in a state-inspected kitchen, they cannot be sold for the church fundraiser.
And all these things are the now that is actually a dagger at the heart of civic participation.
Because what it's saying is that the only people who can legitimize a charitable pie donation at a church fundraiser is the government.
The government is the sole legitimate arbiter of everything you do in the United States.
And that's why, just as gun control is not about guns, it's about control.
Pie control is not about pies, it's about control.
And likewise, Internet control is not about the Internet, it's about control.
It's all about control.
And at a certain point, you just find that life has seized up, that you can't move in this direction, you can't move in that direction, because everything you want to do has had all the life regulated out of it.
And if you look at what's happened with business, for example, one of the reasons that people look for business outsource things overseas, nobody outsources to Chad.
Nobody outsources to Rwanda.
What you want to go to is a place where you've got a first world business environment that hasn't had all the life throttled out of it.
Where our friend Steve from Toronto has a point is that Tim Hortons, the donut makers that operate on both sides of the border, they announced last year that they're a Delaware corporation.
They were reorganizing themselves as a Canadian corporation to take advantage of Canadian tax rates.
Did you ever think, as an American, you would see an American corporation fleeing north of the border, quote, to take advantage of Canadian tax rates, unquote?
Because at a certain point, the regulatory costs, the taxation levels on businesses here make it simply not worth operating a business in the United States of America anymore.
And that's why these regulatory costs, sucking up 10% of GDP every year, federal alone, are a dagger at the heart of American liberty.
Mark Stein, Infra Rush, more to come.
Silverbells, Silverbells.
It's Christmas time in the city.
Mark Stein, Infra Rush.
We're very seasonal at the EIB network, but there's always bad news out there.
The Jihad never sleeps.
The latest blot is they're planning to contaminate a bedrock American institution, the salad bar.
So if you decide to take grandma out a day after Christmas, December 26th, Boxing Day, whatever you want to call it, and you get Grandma at the All-You-Can-Eat Salad Bar, be careful.
Be careful because the Al-Qaeda is planning to contaminate salad bars.
Now, I'm sure, no, you'll need more than the Sneeze Guard.
The Sneeze Guard isn't going to work.
Janet Ncombotano will be introducing enhanced pat downs at the all-you-can-eat salad bar.
So, you know, she doesn't want to see anybody putting anything on the letters in there.
You think that's like the old, it could be the PETN.
It looks like a Parmesan thing.
So if you sprinkle it on the old Caesar salad, who knows what could happen.
Let's go to Lance in Amarillo, Texas.
Lance, you're live on the Rush Limbaugh Show.
Great to have you with us.
Merry Christmas, Mark.
Merry Christmas to you, Lance.
Mark, you brought up the TSA earlier, and I had a question for you in regards to profiling with the TSA.
Right.
And we have a government or administration anyway that won't even call a terrorist a terrorist.
Do you think they would concede in calling them serial killers?
No.
Aspect is they both want to commit mass murder and then play the catch-me-if-you can game, and then they'll take credit for their actions, and then you still, you know, they just want to play hide-and-seek.
And the reason why I say that is because if you have a serial killer loose in your neighborhood, the very first thing that happens is a professional profiler comes in and builds a profiler based off the evidence of the murder.
Yeah, no, they're going to alert the law enforcement and then hold a press conference and tells the community what to be on the lookout for.
That's policing 101.
It was like the Washington sniper.
Do you remember that?
The Washington Sniper?
You had all these guys on CNN night after night saying, well, from this pattern of behavior, I would say he's an angry white loner, probably a hunter or militia member.
We had all this for weeks and weeks on end, and then it turned out to be a guy called Mohamed, an illegal immigrant from Jamaica.
And so all the icy lono, probably a macho hunter type, none of that.
But that's what they don't do with this.
With this, they say, oh, you know, this guy called Mohammed has tried to blow up the plane.
We need to get every grandma in the tri-state area in and make her drop her bloomers and poke around in there because some guy called Mohammed tried to blow up a plane.
It's the antithesis of policing.
I think when this was introduced last time, I said that's what they used to do.
You know, the old cop show, there are 8 million stories in the naked city.
This has been one of them.
But now when you go to the airport, there are 8 million penises in the naked airport, and yours has been one of them.
And that's what they're going to do.
They're going to go through them all.
They kind of say, we can't have profiling.
Everybody's underwear is the same.
We don't discriminate.
You imagine how this would be if there's a serial killer in Philadelphia or somewhere.
Imagine if they took the same approach to this serial killers that they do for terrorists.
They'd say, oh, right, well, we found three murder victims in Amarillo this week.
I want everybody dragged in.
We're going to make them, I want the entire population of Amarillo in here, and I'm going to make everybody drop their pants and we're going to go through their underwear.
That's the equivalent of what they're doing at the airport.
And what's interesting is that they have never, ever, ever, ever found a single terrorist in the history of the TSA, which was founded in, what was it, 2002?
And in eight years' time, they have had their hands in innumerable pieces of American underwear and have never caught a single terrorist.
And that perfect record of never, ever, ever, ever, ever catching a single terrorist is going to hold, Lance.
But you make a good comparison with serial killers.
Hey, have a great Christmas in Amarillo, Lance.
What's that song?
Wasn't there a Gene Autry song about it's Christmas time in Texas or something?
I think so.
Hey, let me ask you a question.
Do you think this whole deal with Mark Holder or Eric Holder talking about Al-Qaeda making attacks on your buffets, do you think that's really just a play for Michelle Obama to use food justice to shut them down?
Yeah, I think it may be connected to the Michelle Obama war on obesity.
I think if you look at it, it's all about, as I said, it's all about control.
So first she says, Michelle Obama is the non-Mary Antoinette because she's don't let them eat cake.
You know, Mary Antoinette, God bless her, said, let them eat cake.
Michelle Obama says, don't let them eat cake.
Michelle Obama says, eat your salad.
And then Eric Holder says, no, no, we're going to have Homeland Security at the salad bar because Al-Qaeda are threatening the salad bar.
This is a way of bringing the American diet under the control of the Obama administration.
So Michelle Obama and Eric Holder, they're doing a pincer movement here to try and get you into the federally regulated salad bar.
There is no end to it.
Thanks for your call, Lance.
Mark Stein, in for Rush on the EIB network, Mordecai.
Mark Stein, walking in a federally regulated wonderland.
It has been great being with you, sitting in for Rush in the lame duck session of the Rush Limbaugh Show.
I'm going to be here tomorrow, and then we will have a best of rush for Christmas Eve.
I think this falls into the noted without comment section.
Noted without comment.
This is quite a headline, though.
Former Gitmo inmate.
Jews used witchcraft on Guantanamo prisoners.
Made me feel a cat was trying to penetrate me.
This is, I don't know what he means by it.
I assume he means like a tabby cat or something.
I don't assume he means a cool cat.
I don't think he's talking about Sammy Davis Jr. or whatever.
I don't know what games they are.
I mean, I wouldn't put anything past the Bush administration in the ruthless things, but apparently Jews are using witchcraft on Guantanamo prisoners.
