Time Text
The views expressed by the host on this program make more sense than anything anybody else out there happens to be saying for a simple reason.
We're right.
The views expressed by the host on this program documented to be almost always right 99.6% of the time.
It's great to have you here.
Happy to be with you.
It's all a big thrill for me.
Telephone number 800-282-2882 and the email address L Rushball at EIB net.com.
I alluded to it in the previous hour of the program, but uh it's it's an even number day, November or uh April 4th.
And Obama has just Eric Holder, but it's Obama.
We're gonna try Khalid Sheikh Mohammed at a military tribunal at Club Gitmo, which will obviously advance our licensed merchandise business, which is very thriving business down there.
But no longer are we going to try him in New York City.
Must have something to do with that re-election announcement, fuck, and make no mistake, that's all it is.
This is not a coincidence that the very day we get this announcement is the very day Obama announces that he's gonna run for re-election, and there's a big push out there, and I have this, we're getting to it in the stack.
Sit uh sit tight, be patient, hang in there, be tough and all that.
A big move on the part of Hillary Clinton supporters to get her to run.
It's a story about how all the Democrat Hillary supporters have not fallen in love with Obama.
They still have animosity, they still think she got a raw deal, and they don't want any more of Obama.
All that's coming up.
I want you to listen, however, before we get to all the rest of today's program, the soundbite that I quoted in the last um hour of the program, it was a hardball episode.
Chris Matthews, the fill-in host was F. Chuck Todd, and he was speaking with Time Magazine deputy international editor Bobby Ghosh about a Florida pastor burning the Quran and Afghan Muslim protests and killings as a result.
F. Chuck Todd said basically, we have two sets of extremists here.
We got this extremist in Florida and a couple of extremists that took advantage of the moment to stir people up in Afghanistan.
How much has this spread around the Muslim world?
The thing to keep in mind that's very important here is that the Quran to Muslims it's not it's not the same as as the Bible to Christians.
The Bible is a book written by men.
It's acknowledged by Christians that it is written by man, it's for story of Jesus.
But the Quran, if you're a believer, if you're if you're Muslim, the Quran is directly the word of God, not written by man, it's it's transcribed directly the word of God.
That makes it sacred in a way that it's hard to understand if you're not Muslim.
So the act of burning a Quran is is much more potentially much, much more inflammatory than if you were to burn a burn about.
Exactly.
Directly attacking God.
The Bible, yeah, it's just uh Jesus written by men and so forth.
Well, you can you can do your own analysis and fill in the blanks on that one yourself.
My only observation is that we keep hearing that Islam is reforming.
Well, you you sit in there snurdly and you laugh, but you know we keep hearing about this.
I mean, this is just we need to be patient.
You understand that there's a reform movement within that understands that killing people because of cartoons is a little bit over the top.
There is a reform movement is well, I would just ask Mr. Ghosh, who by again as a reminder wrote the the phony story on the Hadithah massacre.
The guy you just heard made up that story about Marines raping women and children in Iraq.
That's the source authority for this Chuck Todd sitting in for Chris Matthews.
So if Islam is the if the Quran is the direct word of God transcribed, and yet there's a reform movement within it, who's gonna tell God that they're messing around here with it?
There are a lot of apologists that tell us Islam will reform and then they will start embracing freedom of conscience, equality, and the reform movement there will be no more jihad.
Well, how's it gonna do that if if their scriptures are not like ours, but written by Allah himself?
What are the reformers going to say that God got things wrong?
I mean, the reformers are going to have to do.
They're going to, hey, God, couple things in here we've got to fix.
Is that how they're going to do this?
Somebody's going to have to tell God they're going to reform it.
Anyway, my friends, how are you?
Again, 800-282-288-2, if you want to be on the program.
Paul Ryan's budget.
A plan for the 2012 budget starting in October would cut more than $4 trillion over the next decade, maybe as much as $6 trillion.
More than even the President's debt commission proposed, with spending caps as well as changes in the Medicare and Medicaid health programs.
Now, one of the things that, you know, I spoke with Congressman Ryan on the phone this morning, and one of the things that he made clear to me, which I think is very wise, by the way, he's very much aware how they're going to demagogue this.
He's very much aware how they're going to lie about it.
wants them to.
They're throwing so many balls in the air at this thing that they're not going to know which to attack first.
Virtually every sacred belief, every one of their talking points of criticism is met here.
Now, one of the reasons nobody wants to get anywhere near Social Security, the third rail of American politics, is because Social Security is paid out to the most active and participatory voting members of our culture and our population, the seasoned citizens.
They vote.
Now, one of the things that is going to happen in this budget is that there will be no cuts whatsoever, no reductions whatsoever, anywhere, anytime, for current Social Security recipients.
And Ain't going to happen.
And Congress and Ryan said, I expect some people on our side of the aisle are not going to like that.
It's a concession, however, look, it's reality is reality.
And he he is I thought he's a brilliant guy, he really is.
He's fully aware that the independent voter, voters, move to the Republicans in November, not because of anything the Republicans did.
They moved to the Republicans because they were just fed up with Obama, fed up with the Democrats, fed up with all this big spending, fed up with all and they want to make sure they don't do anything to uh drive them away.
Policy-wise, or what have you.
Not to mention that the uh in any reform of Social Security, in any reform of Medicare Medicaid, it's always been the case that current recipients would not be included.
They're living under the deal that was made.
Uh, and it's they they have never been targets, if you will, of any of the necessary reforms.
He wanted to make that plain because the Democrats are gonna demagogue that.
Democrats are gonna tell seasoned citizens, ah, this this budget, this Republican budget's gonna take your house away from you.
It's gonna take your Medicare away from you, it's gonna take your health care and total away.
They're gonna say this.
None of it will be true.
But what Ryan is doing, he is taking the battle right to Obama.
He's taking it right to Harry Reed.
He is taking it right to him.
He is just running face to face.
He said, here it is.
This is who we are.
This is what must be done.
We have got to roll back our spending and freeze it to what it was in 2008.
We have to have legitimate cuts.
We are going to reduce the baseline on which all this stuff is based and takes place.
This is what he was sent here to do.
Uh he told me, you know, Washington is a place of ideas.
If you believe in them, you fight for them.
If you don't, get out of town.
There's no other reason to be there.
If you lose interest or passion in your ideas, then scram.
Washington's not the place for you.
In an interview on Fox News Sunday yesterday, Ryan said that budget writers are working out the 2012 numbers with the Congressional Budget Office, but he said the overall spending reductions would come to a lot more than $4 trillion.
This is over 10 years.
The debt commission appointed by Obama recommended a plan that it said would achieve nearly $4 trillion in deficit reduction, which Obama totally cast aside.
Democrats and Obama totally threw it away after asking for it, after ballyhooing it, after making a big deal of it, when they finally came in, because you see, the whole point as far as Obama was current was not the results of the Commission, not what they said to do.
It was just that he was forming one.
You just form a commission.
That is all you do.
That's all you have to do.
That shows that you care.
That shows that you take it seriously.
So here are some of the broad items, and of course, all the detail is forthcoming tomorrow.
There will be a what's called a premium support system for Medicare in the future, older people would choose plans in the marketplace, and the government would subsidize those plans, not fully pay for them, but subsidize them.
Ryan said that that would differ from the voucher system that he's proposed in the past.
Those 55 and older would remain under the present Medicare system.
They don't get touched.
But people who will get there in the future would choose a plan and the government would subsidize part of it, which is the deal Paul Ryan gets, by the way.
This deal is what every member of Congress, House and Senate, gets.
Ryan acknowledged that the premium support system would shift more cost to Medicare recipients, especially what he called wealthy seniors.
He didn't define at what level someone would be considered wealthy.
But means testing, in a sense, here, if you can afford it, you're going to have to pay a part of it.
It only makes sense.
If you're serious, you know what else he said?
He said to me, if this thing can be made to happen, and it's a long shot because you're right a one-year budget, but you always do 10-year projections when you write your one-year budget.
If we could win the White House, and if we could have a nominee who really embraces this, if we have a nominee who can explain it, who supports it, who's energetic, uh passionate about it, and will implement this stuff.
We could reduce.
Eliminate the national debt in 10 to 15 years.
We will not balance the budget for a host of reasons, but we're getting much, much closer than these obscenely high deficits that we have now.
He was dead serious when he told me that we could eliminate 80% almost all of the national debt over a period of time with a commitment to this.
Block grants to states for Medicaid.
Ryan disputed reports that his plan would seek savings of one trillion dollars over ten years from Medicaid, but he would say only that the details would be in the plan.
He said Medicare and Medicaid spending will go up every single year under our budget.
They just don't go up as much as they're going to go up right now.
In fact, I think there is spending.
There's new spending in Ryan's budget, $35 trillion new spending versus Obama's 49 trillion.
I mean, there's news.
I mean, the the the in this is a again another great way that Ryan has stumbled upon to illustrate just how outrageous the spending on the Democrat side is.
Now, Ryan was a member of the bipartisan debt commission.
He voted against its final recommendations because they failed to reduce spending on health care.
How can you be serious about deficit reduction in this country if you're not going to deal with health care costs?
You uh you can't.
Now, what Ryan's doing essentially is clawing back all the spending the Democrats have done since they took over Congress in 2007.
That's the point of freezing spending at 2008 levels.
This is my words, not his.
This is a clawback.
This is an attempt, because what's made the order here for the Republican presidential nominee, if whoever he or she or it is, will just embrace this.
The problems that we face are traceable to 2007.
It's not to let the Bush munch off the hook.
They spent two.
But it's not comparable to what has happened since Pelosi, the Democrats took over Congress 2007 and Obama the White House in 2009.
And what Ryan is doing here is trying to claw back all of that spending that started in 2007.
The deficit of the national debt was $9.5 trillion when Obama took office.
Today it's just over 14 trillion.
So $4 trillion, a reduction of $4 trillion over 10 years is a natural number.
That's the clawback.
That takes us back to the national debt of 9.5 trillion when Obama took office.
That's how much, almost how much Obama has increased the budget in two measly years, folks.
Two measly years the national debt has gone from 9.5 to 14 trillion dollars.
In two years, $14 trillion is what it took since our founding to get to.
Or nine and a half.
9.5 trillion national debt since our founding.
In two years of Obama, that number becomes 14 trillion.
And we can reduce that much in ten years.
And people are going to say, oh, we can't do that.
It's all BS.
And uh as I say, it's about time.
We'll be right back.
Don't go anywhere.
Half my brain tied behind my back just to make it fair.
Yes, we are gonna get to your phone calls in the next half hour.
This is a commitment I make to you.
So, okay, so military trials for Khalid Sheikh Muhammad.
Now, on the day Obama announces that his regime will seek another four years.
Let's put this in perspective, shall we?
By going back to military trials, which is the right decision, is the right decision all along.
Isn't it true that Obama has now adopted all of George W. Bush's major national security policies?
Isn't that true?
So the question to be posed to Obama's supporters on this wonderful celebratory day of his announcement of four more years is this.
If George W. Bush was so stupid, and Barack Obama's so smart, how do you explain Obama continuing every one of President Bush's national security policies?
And doubling down on some of them.
We're not just in Iraq and Afghanistan.
We are in Libya.
We were in, well, in a manner of speaking, Egypt.
We might be going into Yemen and who knows about Syria.
So you Obama supporters, you're faced with a dilemma here.
You either owe George W. Bush an apology, or you must admit that your guy is also an idiot.
Those are your two choices.
There isn't any middle ground.
If Bush was an idiot and Obama has doubled down on Bush, then Obama's an idiot.
Or you need to apologize to Bush.
Paul Ryan has said on Fox News Sunday, Paul Ryan said they will have to lie and demagogue.
Talking about the Democrats and uh their approach to governing.
He said, we are giving them a political weapon to go against us, but they will have to lie and demagogue to make it a political weapon.
Ryan knows exactly what he's doing.
He knows he knows how to push their buttons just as I know how to tweak the media.
And if you look at Chris Van Holland's knee-jerk cliched reaction to what he was told Ryan's budget is, then Ryan is exactly right here.
They are gonna have to lie and demagogue.
How must it feel to be a Democrat today?
I want to I'm gonna make an assumption that in this audience some of you are normal Democrats, not the extreme kooky anti-American leftist bunch that now seems to represent your party.
Some of you people, some of you people are just old fashioned Democrats.
And I w did you sign up for this when you voted for Obama?
Did you sign up?
Are you comfortable knowing that your state and your federal government is bankrupt?
Is this what you thought you were getting when you voted for this guy?
Mountains of debt, assaults on liberty, assaults on capitalism and the free market private sector.
Do you believe Harry Reid and Pelosi and Obama have a plan to slash the deficit?
Get us back to 5% unemployment.
Is this really what you signed up for?
All of these jobless people?
Gasoline higher now than at any time in the last ten years?
Oil price skyrocketing up again.
Does Dick Durbin actually represent your views?
What's it gonna take?
Gasoline five bucks a gallon, inflation at 15%.
At what point are some of you Democrats gonna say, no, no, no, this is not what we signed up for.
Now, one thing here about the military trials, and let's just get this out there and have it stated as fact.
This decision to try the 9-11 terrorists, and let me let me make a prediction.
Isn't that gonna be a peep?
You I you might have a couple of commenters or posters, you might have some uh just for show.
Radical leftists get all out of whack.
You might have some tweets, a couple Facebook posts at disgruntled Democrats and liberals over the fact that Khalid Sheikh Muhammad and the boys are gonna be tried at club Gitmo.
But the very fact, excuse me, the very fact that Obama's gonna try these guys at a military court in Gitmo proves to me that he has no fear whatsoever about the left not voting for him or even sitting out the election.
He knows that their complaint against Bush on this uh club Gitmo military tribunals, all that was just a pose.
That was just that was just posturing propaganda.
The vast majority of them don't care where the terrorists in Getmo are getting civilian trials or not, you have some ideologues and lawyers who would have loved for the trial to take place in an American courtroom in New York City.
But in terms of the mass of leftist voters, it's it's like folks, it's like Abu Ghrab, you know the there's a there's a story of some genuine atrocities American soldiers have committed in Afghanistan.
Have you heard about it?
No, but the pictures from Abu Ghrab, you remembered the the excrement storm that pictures that look like a fraternity prank caused?
And how CBS and the New York Times led with those photos and went on and on and on and talked about the moral decline of America's standing in the world on and on and on and on.
It was like it was all posture.
It was all posing.
I mean, for the left to care about any morals, anybody's morals at any time is a joke.
To be worried about America's standard in the world, all a crock, it was all posturing.
It was all posing, it was all just a vehicle to attack this country to gin up negativity about George W. Bush, reduce his approval numbers and so forth and so on.
Now you've got you get sad to say you've got some genuine military atrocities.
You have to look hard to find it.
And you certainly don't see the New York Times or CBS outraged by any of it.
And it's certainly innovating, and there certainly isn't any demand of the regime to explain all of this.
And you haven't seen the defense secretary be frog marched up to the Senate for a committee hearing to explain all this.
And you haven't had it a soldier, none of this, none of it.
And it's it's arguably what happened at Abu Ghrab pales in comparison here.
So all of this is posing.
I mean, if Obama was really seriously threatened by loss of support, he would not publicly change the trial.
In fact, what it proves is that if he wants to get re-elected, he's got to get that trial out of New York City.
You know, he was doing his own posing.
He's sending his own message to the American hating left that supports him.
And they knew what a Khalid Sheikh Mohammed trial in New York City was all about.
It was all about a never ending display of trashing America.
Which is what they want.
But couldn't bring it off.
But the effort was there.
So now they get trial in a military trial in Club Gitmo.
Ho hum, no big deal, just like ho hum, no big deal.
Any military atrocities under Obama R. Orama and his and his hawk hens waging war all over the Middle East.
Ho hum, no big deal.
So Bill Marr gets a hair follicle out of whack.
So Michael Moore puts on a few pounds.
Big deal.
Whoopee do.
Just go back to Pritiken, eat cardboard for three days, and it'll be fine.
And now as promised back to the phones, or to the phones, because we haven't been there yet.
Uh Bruce in Detroit.
You're up first.
Bruce, I gotta ask you, did you show up at the Charlie's uh Charlie Sheen torpedo of death tour on uh on Saturday night?
No, I didn't think he had much to offer for my hard earned money.
Well, it's uh he got roundly booed.
You know what he said when they booed him?
Go ahead and boom me, man.
I got your money, dude.
Exactly.
Yeah, he did.
He said, and then so they booed louder and walked out.
But the dollars in Chicago liked them, so I guess he's doing all right.
Yeah, he did, they changed it up a little bit.
Well, there's some adults got together, I think, in the production side of the show and made it somewhat passable.
Anyway, I know you didn't call about that.
What's up?
Well, I called because I'm a UAW retiree, and you mentioned them getting 200 and some million out of the government, but yet in the last year, they raised what they take out of my retirement check.
They've raised my copay to doctors, and they've raised my copay on prescription drugs.
Meanwhile, we appointed former Governor Blanchard to our medical advisory board on our retirement system.
I I'm a little miffed here on finding out that they got that kind of money.
Yeah, I I would be miffed too if I were you're you you say you're retired UAW worker?
Yes.
You okay.
This money is going to pre-retirees.
This money is going to people who look here's here's the deal.
Little known provision in Obamacare allowed the federal government or allowed allowed the federal government to pay nearly two billion dollars to union, state public employee systems, and big companies to subsidize health coverage costs for early retirees.
The UAW, your union, got two hundred and two, two hundred and six, I should say, well million dollars.
Early retirees are funded by the fund I'm speaking of.
Okay.
So they're funded by the fund I'm speaking of, so they got two hundred million to cover them, and then they raise my rates.
Well, the money has the money, now I don't know if it has been spent, but it has been allocated.
The total amount of money here is five billion.
They've already gone through two billion of it.
The five billion supposed to last through twenty fourteen.
They're not gonna make it at this rate, so they have to print more.
But it's still fancy.
You are part of a group that's supposed to be having your health care subsidized and it's not being subsidized.
Right.
How much is your copay?
Our rates are going up.
Our cope had a doctor's thirty-five, it's ten for a generic drug and uh thirty for a non generic, and they tell us we got the best health care plan in the world?
Not really.
Not really.
We are not.
Wait a minute.
What do you hold it a second now?
I find that interesting.
What do you define as the best health care plan in the world?
Well, the probably school teachers got a better plan than we do.
They pay very little.
Especially here in Michigan.
Was thirty-five dollars a lot for a copay?
Well, no, not for me.
For a doctor?
No, no, no, no.
It's $25 for a doctor.
They deduct $35 a month for my retirement check.
This originally started out at nothing, but when we went to a retirement trust, it's been going up.
It started out at twenty-five, went to thirty-five.
Our copay for doctors started out at ten went to twenty-five.
What is your typical doctor's visit cost you?
Do you know?
I mean, not without the copay.
What's what's it cost?
What's a typical doctor?
No, I really I'm not sure.
Because you don't pay for it.
That's exactly.
I don't see a bill on that.
I just have to $25.
I don't know what kind of a deal Blue Cross has made.
I'm sure.
Well, that's one of my point all along.
Reason number one why the healthcare system is out of whack is the consumer, the patient has no idea what it costs.
Believe me, if you knew what it costs, you'd be shopping around for the best deal you could get.
Right, absolutely.
And some things we do see the cost on, like the cost of drugs, I do see that.
Now you you have to and I'm don't get me wrong.
We have a great health care plan.
I'm not knocking.
I'm sure you do.
That's why I was asking you earlier what what's wrong with it.
But uh now you you have to pay thirty-five dollars a month for your insurance.
Right.
Copay.
Right.
Now and you know that.
You know that, and that bothers you.
You know that, but you don't know what the actual doctor visit costs you.
And you would know it if if you had to pay it, this is my point.
If we all had to pay, you would know what your doctor cost is.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
We're just uh we're just allowed to pick from a list of doctors on an HMO system.
And don't get me wrong, we do.
We have a great health care system.
Oh but I'm just making a point.
Believe me, we're paying for it.
We know.
Why did they why why did they give them two hundred million and they raise my rates?
You know what I'm saying?
If we got two hundred dollars, who are we talking about here, if I may.
The UAW is your answer.
That money, where do you think that money is gonna end up?
Where do you think most of this two hundred and six million dollars is gonna actually end up, Bruce?
Politics.
If I had to guess, it's gonna end up Democrat Party.
It's gonna end up at the party, various candidates.
That's the whole point.
This whenever money goes to a union, it's it's where it goes.
It's a money laundering operation.
I'd like to make one statement about my my president of my union, Bob King, stood on TV the other day and said what the Michigan legislature was doing was on democratic.
Not one president of this union has ever run for election by the membership.
They're anointed by a group.
Yep.
Now you tell me he knows about democracy.
Run run like the Teamsters do.
I'll give Hoffa credit.
His members all vote for him.
Not the UAW.
They're anointed by the Pilot Bureau.
Yeah.
I know.
Let me tell you something else.
No, you're you're you're you're exactly right.
It's not about democracy.
It's about you are just a pawn.
You're like Mongo in Blazing Saddles.
You are just a pawn in the game of life, shifting money from one group to the Democrat Party and back and forth.
And you're the middleman, and you're supposedly the hard working, beat-up, disrespected blue-collar working guy that every other pr uh these other people looking out for you.
So they come up and announce this big plan of 206 million dollars to help you pay for your health care costs, and it finds out when all the money is spent, your premiums are still going up.
And you know why?
They raised your rates.
This is something for you and everybody within the sound of my mellifluous voice, needs to hear and don't doubt me.
They raised your insurance rates.
Because even with all of this bailing out, they still can't give you free health care.
They want to pitch it as free health care.
They've got two hundred and six billion dollars, two hundred six million dollar bailout at UAW, and your rates still go up.
Now, I I have to say, the average doctor visit, I looked it up while I was talking to you.
The average doctor visit is 400 bucks.
When you couple it all to, when you take an average nationwide, you're looking at depending on what's done, you could spend as much as 400 going to doctor, and your copay is 35, which is pretty damn close to free, but it isn't free.
It never it never will be.
Just a little point that I want to.
Bruce thanks for the call.
We'll be right back.
Talent on loan from God.
Great to have you here, Rush Limbaugh with half my brain tied behind my back just to make it fair.
Stephen Moore in the Wall Street Journal, this was on April 1st.
If you want to understand better why so many states from New York to Wisconsin to California are teetering on the brink of bankruptcy, consider this depressing statistic.
Today in America, there are nearly twice as many people working for the government, 22.5 million, than in all of manufacturing.
11.5 million.
This is an almost exact reversal of the situation in 1960.
There were 15 million workers in manufacturing, 8.7 million working in the government.
And it gets worse.
More Americans work for the government than work in construction, farming, fishing, forestry, manufacturing, mining, and utilities combined.
We have moved decisively from a nation of makers to a nation of takers.
Nearly half of the 2.2 trillion dollar cost of state and local governments is the one trillion dollar a year tab for pay and benefits of state and local employees.
Is it any wonder so many states and cities can't pay their bills?
Every state in America today, except for two, Indiana and Wisconsin, has more government workers on the payroll than people manufacturing industrial goods.
Consider California, which has the highest budget deficit in the history of states.
The not so golden state now has an incredible 2.4 million government employees, twice as many as people that work in manufacturing.
New Jersey has just under two and a half as many government employees as manufacturers.
Florida's ratio is more than three to one.
So is New York's.
Even Michigan.
At one time, the automobile capital of the world, and Pennsylvania wants to steal capital, have more government bureaucrats than people making things.
The leaders in government hiring are Wyoming and New Mexico, which have hired more than six government workers for every manufacturing worker.
And remember now, vast majority of these people are union, which means the vast majority of their dues goes to the Democrat Party.
Which is one of the reasons state payrolls are swelling as they are.
Money wandering operation for the Democrat Party.
Now, Mr. Moore writes, certainly true that many states have not typically been home to traditional manufacturing operations.
Iowa and Nebraska are farm states, for example.
But in those states, there are at least five times more government workers than farmers.
West Virginia, the mining capital of the world, yet it has at least three times more government workers than miners.
New York is the financial capital of the world, at least for now.
That sector employs roughly 670,000 New Yorkers, less than half for the state's 1.48 million government employees.
And don't expect a reversal anytime soon.
Surveys of college graduates are finding that more and more of our top minds want to work for the government.
Why?
Well, because in recent years, only government agencies have been hiring, and because the offer of near lifetime security is highly valued in these times of economic turbulence.
When 23-year-olds aren't willing to take career risks, we have a real problem on our hands.
Sadly, we could end up with a generation of Americans who want to work at the Department of Motor Vehicles.
Now the employment trends described here are explained in part by hugely beneficial productivity improvements in such traditional industries as farming, manufacturing, financial services, and telecommunications.
These produce far more output per worker than they did in the past.
Typical farmer, for example, is today at least three times more productive than in 1950.
