| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
The views expressed by the host on this program documented to be almost always right.
99.6% of the time.
What does that mean?
It means don't doubt me.
Great to have you here, Rush Limbaugh, your guiding light.
There are times of trouble, confusion, murkiness, tumult, tsunamis, chaos, lying, stinking leftists, and even the good times.
Our telephone number 800-282-2882, if you want to be on the program.
By the way, the AP has uh scrubbed their eight mile per gallon, the Obama's eight mile per gallon remark from their story, the comment that he made.
The original article read the president chided one questioner saying if you're complaining about the price of gas, you're only getting eight miles a gallon, you know, you might want to think about a trade-in.
Let's grab that sound bite.
Now I've got to find it because I put it at the bottom of the stack, but I'm gonna guess it's number eight.
I think that's what it was.
I find it in order here.
Notice I get no help from anybody who also has copies of this laying around.
Um it's number 14, I'm being told.
Let's see if that's uh, yep, it is.
Uh how was it?
I'm getting no help.
I'm sitting here, I'm I'm flying blind.
There's three people that have a copy of this soundbite, Ross.
Okay, remember 14.
This was this is what Obama said.
The original AP story reported this.
I'm just gonna be honest with you.
There's not much we can do next week or two weeks from now.
If you're getting eight miles a gallon, you may want to think about a trade-in.
You can get a great deal.
I promise you, GM or Ford, they're or Chrysler, they're gonna be happy to give you a deal on something that gets you better gas mileage.
Right.
Gas prices, they're gonna still fluctuate.
That's enough.
So you heard it.
Uh if you're getting eight miles a gallon, you may want to think about a trade-in.
The AP reported that Obama made the comment laughingly, but the quote has been scrubbed from the from the story that they link.
It's been scrubbed.
AP just took it out.
They just they just took it out.
We've got it here.
They just took it out of there.
Uh obvious.
There was no prompter, and AP understands here.
The question is, did AP do it on their own, or did somebody from the White House call them?
I bet they got the call too, but I'll bet they would have done it on their own now.
But there was somebody at AAP.
So, you know, this is really kind of bad.
This is uh By the way, folks, my car gets eight miles to gallon, and I'm honored.
Uh I'm I'm proud.
I chose my car for that reason.
Well, no, I can't honestly say I chose it for that reason, but I chose it knowing full well.
That didn't deter me at all.
No, it did not deter me at all.
Uh and I love my car.
Finest, finest carve ever driven.
No, I'm not if I if I trade it in, it's gonna be for a new one of the same kind.
Uh, because it's three years old now, it's got 11,000 miles on it.
So it's you should see snurdly and dawn.
I do.
I've got my I have I have get folks, I've got a Mercedes SL65 AMG.
It's convertible.
This thing, it's the same engine as the MyBach has.
It just weighs about one-third to my buck.
Uh, but it too, if it had the weight, would only get eight miles to the gallon.
That car has about eight thousand miles on it.
Uh, but we have six in the fleet, mostly uh we've got four SUVs.
I don't drive those.
But I I would bet you my fleet combined gas mileage is nine.
And I'm I am not going to trade in anything I've got for one of Obama's cars.
You know, I love, I see Prius.
There's people driving these Priuses, and I know that some of them probably think they're helping and saving, but other people are doing used to make a statement.
It's like wearing one of the red ribbons or blue ribbons, you want to say I care.
And I love giving those cars enemas.
I mean, I love getting just as close to them as I can in the back, and they're looking at me in the rear view mirror, and I just wave at them.
And uh, and these these people generally always drive like four to five miles an hour below or underneath under the speed limit.
So uh, you know, I I love pulling out, going parallel with them and then goosing it a while.
Just here, breathe my fumes.
Look at me destroy the planet.
Oh, I love it.
I absolutely do.
And it's um, but as I say, it's it's it's time for trade-in, maybe.
And if I if I do get a new one, it'll be his new new version of that, because I'm sure that they've upgraded the electronics in the gadgetry on the dashboard and stuff.
You know the media was so looking forward to obsessing over America's slave holding past.
And here's a story from the AP out of Charleston, South Carolina.
Charleston, home of Ritt Butler.
A looming government shutdown is threatening to close the gates to Fort Sumner, meaning the touchstone of the 150th anniversary of the first shots of the Civil War could be dark next week.
Even as lawmakers in Washington worked on Wednesday to avoid a federal shutdown, planners of civil war sesquicentennial events.
Don't even bother with that if you're in Rio Linda.
I don't even just it's 150 years.
Planners of the Civil War 150-year anniversary events wrestled with contingency plans for Tuesday's anniversary events.
Jeff Antley, who is coordinating arrangements for an estimated 1,000 reenactors coming to the city.
So I'm shocked, this is a pivotal event in the nation's history.
You can't say we're gonna reschedule this.
The money's been spent, the uniforms have been bought, the travel arrangements have been made.
These reenactors, some of them driving in from across the country and others flying in from abroad, are set to camp at Fort Moultrie on Sullivan's Island and Fort Sumter in Charleston Harbor beginning Friday night.
That's the same night that if there is a shutdown, the forts would close.
So-called non-essential government services such as the National Park Service would be affected by um any shutdown.
Oh, speaking of that, remember yesterday that we had the Soundbite Obama lamented that if you had reservations for Jellystone Park, um uh you you you you might gonna try to find a refund, uh but the folks that uh own the places out there might not give you a refund.
I checked it out.
I'm really I'm gonna have to double check this because I got an email from a guy who lives in Jackson Hall, Wyoming, which is 40 miles south of Jelly Stone.
So the park's closed this time.
You can't get in there.
Now I'm I wasn't aware that Jelly Stone closed.
But apparently there are opening and closing dates for certain parts of the park.
I wasn't aware.
So I need to uh dispatch somebody from the research department uh on this.
Don't bother, Sturdley, don't don't I'm just kidding.
But somebody did say it's close.
Obama, he doesn't, he's he's talking about things in a cliched way that he doesn't even um he doesn't even know.
Closing Fort Sumter leaves Antley trying to find other locations where hundreds of re-enactors can camp, and he may be making contingency plans that are never used.
Closing Sumter where the Civil War began on April 12th, 1861 will mean no visitors to the fort during the milestone anniversary.
Now, there are plans for a beam of light to shine skyward for several days, then split at 4.30 a.m. on Tuesday, the 150th anniversary of the first shots from Confederate land batteries at Union troops holding the fort.
Well, you can see, you can hear, you can tell by reading this story.
I mean, there are people that can't wait for this.
Now the reenactors.
You know, I for the few months that I did spend in the college.
I did take a college history course, and I forget the professor's name, but he led this in Kate Girardo, Missouri, he led a reenactment of some war.
I f I forget.
In uh the park where I grew up was called Capah Park, and these guys actually dressed up, I don't know if I think it was civil war.
They actually dressed up and they started reenacting the Civil War out there.
So the reenactors take this stuff very seriously.
But you know, you know that the media can't wait.
The 150th anniversary of the first shots of the Civil War, a 150th anniversary of our slave holding past, first black president in the oval office.
I hadn't even thought about that, but wait till next week shows up, folks.
Wait till you see the media.
They are salivating for this story.
And you're gonna see it reported whether Fort Sumter's open or not.
So Sumter will be bathed in blue light before the anniversary, then in a red light Tuesday night to signify the burning fort.
A shutdown would also cancel reenactments of the Union's surrender to Confederates set for next Thursday.
Years of planning have gone into events.
Sumter, as of Wednesday, still making plans for the anniversary, said Linda Fryer, a spokeswoman at the fort.
But despite planning, there will be no events on federal land if there's a shutdown, said David Barna, chief spokesman for the National Park Service in Washington.
But not to fear, because even with a shutdown, other 150th anniversary events in Charleston, not on federal land will be staged.
They include a reenactment of the first shot fired from a mortar on James Island and the bombardment of Sumter by about 30 cannon ringing the harbor.
All to remind us of our slave past.
The 150th anniversary next week.
All right, I'm glad I checked because most of Jellystone Park is open at this time.
And for most of the year, apart from the depths of winter when parts are closed, but and there is 45 inches of snow or something, 45 feet of snow at Jellystone this year, and there's snow in the forecast today.
I learned this when I checked the email I got from um our eager beaver listener.
On a brief time out, my friends, we will take it and be back right after this.
Don't looky here.
I just noticed.
I just got an instant message from Catherine.
She says, Oh, please don't be so obnoxious talking about our fleet mileage of our cars at the new allegations of voter fraud in the Wisconsin Supreme Court judge race, really.
Voter fraud where Democrats and unions are involved.
Now they tell us.
Who is uh next?
Angela, excuse me, Angela in Arnold, Missouri, not far from St. Louis.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Great to have you here.
Thank you.
Um, Rush, I am incensed.
Um truly incensed, that you are so worked up and in a ditter, because Donald Trump is actually having the nerve to go after the validity of Barack Obama's birthplace.
Wait a minute.
What is it is just not going to leave the issue alone.
I know you've been chuckling about it, um, because he's had some he's having so much nerve to just not leave this issue alone.
And the fact of the matter is that his citizenship has been a suspicious issue from the very beginning, and not one Republican high highly uh h high Republican or you have ever really tried to nail him on this issue.
And if it does turn out that he is not a true citizen, then I think all of you should hang your heads in shame because of all the destruction our country has had to suffer ever since he was elected in spite of being the fraud that we know he probably really is.
So you're mad at me.
I am furious.
I wanted you and anybody else to go after him on this issue before he was elected.
It would have been the easiest way to have stopped him.
It would have been a no-brainer.
But nobody would.
And so he was elected and everything was just sh we just sh you know hidden under the rug and now look what we have had ever since.
Just a moment.
There were court cases.
Judges threw it out, judges looked at it.
There were uh any number of efforts made to get to the bottom Donald Trump gonna get anywhere with it then well why aren't you mad at Trump for not getting into it earlier.
Why are you mad at me for pointing out what Trump's well you you why how come you're not mad at Trump for not being on this for two years.
Trump's a late arrival here.
Trump was not Trump is not the one who has the the show that's supposed to be exposing all the political mess in this country.
You are you're the one who's supposed to be enlightening everybody and you did not do as much as you could have done to enlighten us to have how big a fraud Obama is and you know if it does turn out that he's not a citizen,
I think you should hang your head in shame because our country has suffered so much I have now wait just a second, Angela throw this birth certificate business out and I gotta remind you there is no evidence whatsoever Obama was not born in Hawaii.
There he's he's there's something he doesn't want us to see about the birth certificate but it there's nothing to glom on to here other than his reticence in having the birth certificate seen.
But in terms I am the only one who proclaimed the guy the f a fraud.
I'm the one who did not go along with Obama.
I'm the one who's and I hope he failed I'm the guy who took all the arrows for a whole Republican party and everybody else for suggesting this guy was a fraud and filled with deceit that he's not who he said he was on the basis of policy and the things that he had planned for this country.
But the fact that there was no evidence was the very reason why you should have gone forward I have evidence that I'm a citizen.
Why didn't he have to produce the evidence?
Nobody made him do it not even you and you and everyone else should have made him provide the evidence.
He shouldn't have been able to get away with that.
So what do you want me to do now?
You're mad at me for playing Trump?
You're upset with me for for for for uh sound bites of Trump I'm upset because now Donald Trump has to come in and do the job that you and the high ranking Republicans in office should have been doing before the election.
Well look he did produce a copy of the short form birth certificate which the government of Hawaii has vouched for as completely authentic.
He did produce evidence which a state in this country said was good enough for them.
Well then why is Donald why is there anything Donald Trump um can be going after why are we why are you even talking about it?
Well, because...
There must be an issue.
You know, if I were afraid of this, as you are alleging, I wouldn't even be playing Trump soundbites.
Or if I were, I'd be making fun of Trump and telling him to shut up and go away, but I'm not.
Well, he's apparently willing to take the risk of...
Let me tell you something.
In case it turns out that he's wrong.
Okay, if you want to focus, Angela, on what should have happened before the election, we can do that.
that and I can focus on the stupidity of half the country that voted for the guy and I can talk about all the stupid things the media said and all the tricks that were played to convince people that he's not who he was but today it's 2011 and those days are over and we are living in the midst of this guy destroying the economy and going back and talking about a birth certificate right now is not the most effective way of stopping this guy.
I would love nothing more than for this guy to be proven a fraud.
I would love nothing more for him to have no I would love nothing more for the all of this to have been a giant trick.
I would love nothing more for him to get nabbed at this.
But there isn't any evidence of it yet.
I would love nothing more to see what happens when it's proven if it could be that he's not a citizen.
What happens in legislation?
Everything he's done is unqualified.
Everything he's done is illegal.
Everything he does gotta be wiped clean.
Can you imagine that battle?
I would love to see that.
You've you've got me pegged wrong here.
But I deal with what is.
I don't deal with what ifs.
If is for children, and we've got certain things that are the reality of the day that have to be dealt with.
Pure and simple, and that's where I am on this.
No more and no less.
There's no magic wand that can get Obama unelected.
You can hope and you can dream, but you are locked in a fantasy if that's what you're waiting for.
That isn't gonna happen.
The focus needs to be on making sure he's not re-elected.
But there is no way to unelect the guy.
It isn't going to happen.
Having said that, oh yeah, I'm like all of you.
I would love for this guy to be a total fraud when it comes to the birth certificates, a fraud and practically everything else.
I would love for the if he's born somewhere else.
I would love for conclusive proof of that.
That would be fun.
Just to watch the Democrats and the media go, that would be worth the price of admission and whatever they charge for it.
But until such things happen, if, when, whatever, there's a reality that has to be dealt with day in and day out.
I think you'd have a tough time finding anybody who has spent more time, who's talked more about Obama's lack of records, his lack of school transcripts.
The fact that he's not written anything as the as a president of law review at Harvard, that's just unbelievable.
A law review head honcho who doesn't write, who hasn't been published, his medical records, every other normal document.
Obama clearly a very secretive person, likes to make up stories about his life as we just mentioned again today.
He says he went out and pumped gas, his own.
He didn't do it for a living.
But he says it in such a way as to make it look like he had a job pumping gas.
He never did.
But you gotta understand, too, you know, this the original claim that Obama was not legally qualified to be president was started by Democrat operatives.
Which is one of the things that made me suspicious about it.
Claim got started by a guy named Larry Johnson, who's been a spokesman for the Democrat Party.
He's the same lunatic who wrote a New York Times op-ed claiming we had nothing to worry about from Islam terrorists.
This is about a month before 9-11.
This is the guy who started the Obama birth certificate rumor, Larry Johnson, is the same guy who claimed he had tapes of Michelle Obama calling people whitey.
Now this has not deterred me.
The last time I got in trouble on this subject was I had a guy on the phone talking about Obama and the Messiah and all this stuff, and I said, Well, wait a minute, don't be too quick to condemn Obama as a Messiah, because he's got a lot in common with God.
God doesn't have a birth certificate either.
Well, I caught hell on the leftist blogs for that, if you will recall.
You remember that.
Yeah, God doesn't have a birth certificate either.
So where is all this coming from that I have been a lapdog on all this?
I have studied the issue.
Dear Rush, get an email here during the break.
Dear Rush.
What's it like?
I can't imagine what it's like getting nagged from a woman on the radio that I wasn't married to.
I'm very impressed at your composure.
Gregory Kaplovitz.
Patience is my middle name.
And kindness.
I'm probably politest host in the history of talk radio.
I take great pride in that.
Eric in uh in uh Chittanango, New York, not to be confused with Chattanooga, Tennessee.
Hello.
Hey, Rush, great to speak to you.
Thank you very much, sir.
Rush, uh, with Obama being the smartest man in the world saying that he can't control the price of gas, and we got to get used to it.
He just needs to look back two years when gas is at 412 in June, $4.12 cents, and then immediately in June, um, George W. came out and told Congress that we need to uh start uh searching for more oil in the States and the gas sit then plummeted by the end of the year to $1.61.
Well, that's partially the reason for it.
It was also um uh speculators had had a lot to do with the price of oil jumping up to $150 a barrel.
But just to show you that again, because you're right, Obama, when he says there's nothing we can do to lower the price of uh of oil or gasoline, then what would be the point of releasing oil from the strategic reserves, which Obama has called for a number of times.
We don't have a shortage.
We've never had a shortage of gasoline or oil, you know, a couple days after Katrina, but in terms just a fundamental systemic shortage we've not had.
And yet when the price was skyrocketing up to four bucks, I think it was Obama who joined the chorus of releasing oil from the strategic reserves.
Why?
Because the additional volume theoretically would lower the price, although there isn't enough volume in our strategic reserves to significantly lower the price, and certainly not for any protracted length of time.
Dion, Prescott, Wisconsin.
Hello, sir.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Hey, Rush, it's a pleasure and a privilege.
Thank you very much, sir.
Finally get to talk to you.
First time caller, and you know, twenty years ago when I used to see you on TV in my local area at night uh I'm sorry, man, but I I had to vote for uh Howard Stern over Rox Limbaugh, you know, when you're about twenty-three years old.
Well, we all make mistakes in our youth and profit from them.
I would agree with you a hundred percent, sir, and I've been listening to you now faithfully for about two years and and learned a ton.
But anyways, I called mostly to to let you know that I think the Republicans, if they if they expect to really get anywhere in any of these states on any level of politics, they better get off their rear end and uh and start making the kind of phone calls the Democrats do.
Because Sunday afternoon, I live in Wisconsin and I received a phone call from somebody belonging to the the Progressive Blah blah democratic something or other party.
And after I was done laughing at her introduction, I let her know that I would be voting for Mr. Prosser, and that I thought it was great and and refreshing to finally have a politician like Mr. Walker, who uh who ran on a premise and decided to grab a hold of his pair and stand on that premise.
Well, we have talked about this too.
Um the situation in Wisconsin.
The phone call, by the way, that you got was one of millions, or hundreds of thousands, and it was enabled by nearly three million dollars of union dues that were allocated to this campaign, three million dollars, and your taxes,
your state income taxes and and other state taxes that you pay end up paying these people who then pay dues to the unions, uh, and those dues end up at the end of the rail in the uh in the coffers of the Democrat Party.
But you're right, um we are as Republicans still not in the game.
We have a a different mindset than the Democrats do.
We try to win elections the old-fashioned way, and then we govern the old-fashioned way if we win.
So what do we do?
We engage in the standard ordinary campaign 101.
We attempt to change minds and hearts and persuade people to vote for our candidates.
And we win the election, and we assume then, okay, that everybody Involved understands the people have spoken.
That's not how the left looks at this at all.
The left does not contemplate at the end of everything losing.
Losing an election is not the end of anything.
It's just the beginning of a new strategy.
As you're seeing in Wisconsin.
And the I tell you the if you go back just two months and you look at a primary election unaffiliated, Prosser wins 58, 23%.
Two months later, after the unions get involved with money and start their massive messaging campaign, that's not countered.
The Republicans are not in the messaging game.
And the Republicans are not in really this this campaign.
They're not spending a whole lot of money.
So they lose the PR game, lose the messaging game, and now we're where we are, might lose the majority in the Wisconsin state Supreme Court.
Simply because we look at this in a totally different way than they do.
And basically, the way the Democrats look at this is what rules, what laws?
The only thing that matters here is us winning at the end of all this.
Doesn't matter how.
Look at they've got much more at stake here.
Their livelihoods.
I mean, down to their purchase of eggs and milk depends on their having their hands in the Wisconsin State Treasury.
They don't eat if their hands are not inside the Wisconsin State Treasury.
Well, our hands are not in the Treasury.
Our livelihoods are not dependent on government money.
Well, some of us.
Well, I mean, generally we make our money in the private sector.
We have real jobs and produce things, make things, service things, what have you.
If our livelihoods depended on our fingers and hands being on the federal or state treasuries, we might have a different attitude about it.
But until the Republicans in every state understand that the good old-fashioned Civics 101 rules are not going to win against Democrat Union state public employee groups whose total existence depends on not only having their hands inside the state treasury, but controlling it.
Then we're going to keep losing to them.
It's just that simple.
We'll be back.
Don't go away.
Hey, hey, hey, Don.
Who brought in those thimble-sized cupcakes?
Yeah, but where did we get them?
Oh, you brought them in.
You brought them in.
I have never seen.
I was just in there.
We got some little thimble-sized cupcakes.
And I bit into one.
There's still paper on these things.
I nearly missed getting back in here.
I was about to eat cupcake paper.
These things, I know they're good for diets, but because they're really, really tiny.
Well, it's that.
See, that is the purpose.
Notice what's the point of them being thimble size?
So that you think you're not eating as much.
You got to eat four of these equal one cupcake, and you can do that in four bites.
It's all psychological.
It's all a trick.
It was a very, very successful trick, too.
Ralph in Fort Scott, Kansas.
You're next on the Rush Limbaugh program.
Hi.
Rush, hello.
It's an honor to talk to you, sir.
Thank you, sir.
I just wanted to make comment.
You were talking about how our president told that gentleman you should trade in as eight miles at a gallon vehicle.
Well.
I happen to have one of them myself, and nice thing that it paid off.
I can't just trade it in on the cost of the new vehicles between 30 and 40,000 dollars.
And the part of Kansas where I live, sir, that'll buy you a house.
What?
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
I mean, I just do it.
I mean, if our president decides to trade in one of his limits, these for a small how big a house.
I gotta know this.
How big a house?
Oh, you could get a three, two, three, four-bedroom house for that kind of money in some place in Canada.
That's incredible.
That's a well, you know, I did.
I bought a little property in Missouri just to be loyal to the state about four years ago, bought a little property there, and I got my property tax bill for it.
I thought this can't be.
This this can't be.
I mean, it's it's it's less than my gasoline payment every month.
I'm gonna be in so much trouble for talking to you, Rush.
Uh why?
Well, my mom listed every day down in New Mexico, and she probably heard me right now, so I'll probably get an etch later.
Uh why would your mom be upset with you listening and talking to the program?
Well, she think you're at work or something.
No, no, no, it's just she loves listen to me every day, and I don't know.
She might be a little bit to that guy again.
Oh, oh, oh, it's kind of jealous anger.
I got it.
I got okay.
Well, you know, again, about this.
Let me let me run through this again because we we're we're in sort of uh jocular mood here today.
But this $4 a gallon gasoline coming, I it is it is really um I mean it it's not enough to say it's insensitive.
It is it's an in-your face kind of thing.
How many people drive SUVs because they have to for their jobs or their families?
How many people make a living with their pickup trucks, their their four-wheel drive uh vehicles?
You've got contractors, painters, construction workers, delivery people, cab drivers, soccer moms for crying out loud, carpoolers.
Not everybody can start tooling around in one of these little matchbox jobs that gets 75 miles ago, whatever they get, not everybody can do that.
That's what they want, though.
They want us all in these little matchbox cars or in mass transit.
That's what they want.
Because they're central planners.
It's just better that way.
It's better for the environment, it's better for congestion, it's better for traffic, it's better for doesn't matter whether it's better for us or not.
They just Obama's part of this crowd of people just loves bossing people around.
And that's, you know, more and more bureaucracies, federal and state, made up of people just like bossing other people around.
But there are a lot of people who depend on large vehicles for their living and for safety, and the president seems to have literally no understanding of that, and if he does understand it, he doesn't care.
Which is either just as bad or worse.
News from the AP.
Just flashed.
White House says that the Republican one-week budget extension is a distraction.
Obama has threatened to veto it.
So it's nice to see the continuing resolution that would allow the Army to keep getting paid is a distraction.
This you Republicans have got to focus on this.
They did not succeed in separate legislation to fund uniform military personnel.
They will not be paid if this situ if this shutdown happens.
And this shutdown is gonna happen because of a Barack Obama veto.
A Democrat is gonna veto a one-week continuing resolution.
It's not a budget for the entire year.
A one-week continuing resolution with a differential spread of $30 billion, chump change.
Now, this convinces me even more that they've got polling data that shows that the um Republicans, I guess, can end up taking more blame for this than the Democrats.
That I think it explains what else could it be?
What else could explain the total change in attitude from yesterday to today?
Yesterday was a Democrat scared to death.
Starting last night into the day, they're, I mean, they are just excited as they can be about this shutdown coming.
But it's nice to see that a continuing resolution that would allow the army to keep getting paid is a distraction.
Social Security recipients are gonna get paid.
Medicare Medicaid, they're gonna get paid.
Military people will not be paid.
Thank you, President Obama.
Steve, Bakersfield, California.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Hello, sir.
Hello, Russ.
Pleasure to talk with you.
Thank you, sir.
Um the clip you played of Obama doing with that eight dollar uh eight-mile ago and car the guy was driving.
Yeah.
You or Paul Shanklin have gotta put together a used car salesman clip.
Commercial using that clip.
Make Obama out to be a used car salesman?
He sounded like one.
Come on in.
We got a deal for you.
It's about time you do a trade in.
I mean, that's right.
I'm sure they'll make a good deal right now.
Yeah.
Well, let me ask you something.
Were you uh uh motivated to go trade your car in after hearing Obama say that?
Oh, yeah.
You were.
Oh, yeah.
I was about I thought it was a line around the block.
All right.
So I I um I wasn't.
I w I I mean I I don't think he's that good a salesman.
But but it it's still your right.
It's it's worthy of a parody.
Come on down, have we got a deal for you?
Great you called, Steve.
Thanks much.
And another obscene profit timeout here on the EIB network.
By the way, no resignations, no layoffs, and no firings because people are paid too much at the EIB network.
They can't say that at NBC.
They can't say it at ABC, and they can't say it at CNN.
We'll be back.
All right, we have a statement here.
I'll get it to you in the next hour when we start from Obama.
Statement from actually uh Office of uh uh management and budget about how and why Obama is going to veto the continuing resolution and another piece of legislation that's attached to it.
