Time Text
No, no, no, no, no.
I'm not upset about it.
I'm just telling you that we're going to get 48 hours of news reports on Chris Christie not running for president.
I'm not mad about it.
I don't get mad anymore.
I did lose my cool today to call her for the first time in probably 15 years.
You have to admit.
And to call him, I feel rotten about it because a caller was a nice guy.
No, I haven't.
When was I?
I've never been worse than I was.
That was just.
I just something snapped.
I'm looking here.
I've got I've got 90 seconds left, and I'm hearing what he would have told Snerdley two years ago.
What the hell is that?
I've been doing it.
I'm getting mad thinking about it.
I'm just going to stop.
I did tell him you have a nice day because I recovered.
But uh and I did when he finally got to his point, it was a good one.
It just took two minutes.
I don't care what you tell Snerdley in the screen process.
I don't care.
He'll tell me if it's worth it.
If you if you end up past Snerdly, I mean I don't need to know what you told him.
Snurdly doesn't remember anyway.
He's already off to the um next call.
I got maybe suffering from iPhone rage.
I'm ticked off there's not an iPhone 5.
Well, so far they're still doing it.
They're still they're still uh releasing giving details about the 4S.
And uh Oh no, Snerdley, they're d they're talking it's it's a massive, massive internal upgrade, uh new antenna, new graphics.
This thing is faster graphics than an Xbox.
Faster, faster graphics than most home gaming systems have.
Uh it's uh it it's a world phone now.
They're they're going through all this eight-megapixel camera.
There's there's a bunch of new stuff inside it.
Eight-megapixel camera with a light sensor, yeah.
Yeah, it's got that.
And that's that's the last I saw before I had to come back here to the show.
I don't know what else they're gonna say.
Look, you ask how long does it take to tell about a new phone?
It took Christie 45 minutes to say it wasn't running.
There could still be an iPhone 5.
I doubt it, though.
But but there is these these Apple deals.
When everybody thinks it's over, one of the things Steve Jobs always did, his trademark, oh, one more thing.
My wild guess is that the oh one more thing that if they keep that alive, Jobs isn't there, I don't think he may make a cannon, who knows?
But if they do the oh one more thing gig.
I hope it's that thing I was telling you about yesterday, the um program called Assistant, the voice to text nuance technology.
We will um we will see in due course.
These things generally go about two hours.
They just introduced the new iPad or iPod, uh, the new system software, which will be released on October 12th to the public, the phone on October 14th, I think.
Anyway, you know, I'm I'm looking at this and I'm I'm taking note of all the um the Mac fanboys all over the the world who are just fascinated with this.
Last night was Christmas Eve for a lot of these people.
Wouldn't it be great if the economy were such that was this kind of anticipation for what a lot of companies were doing?
It would really uh be great.
It would be a sign that the uh that the country is rebounding.
Here are two more Christie sound bites, by the way, from his announcement today that he's not running for president.
Here's the first of two remaining bites that we have.
I've explored the options, I've listened to so many people and considered whether this was something that I needed to take on.
But in the end, what I've always felt was the right decision remains the right decision today.
Now is not my time.
I have a commitment to New Jersey that I simply will not abandon.
That's the promise I made to the people of this state when I took office 20 months ago to fix a broken New Jersey.
So, New Jersey, whether you like it or not, you're stuck with me.
Uh question was asked during the QA, unidentified reporter.
You mentioned the uh priority you put on a leader as president.
Why why is that so important?
And what advice do you have for the people running?
The president's failed.
And and if you want to know why it's so important, what to hear that again.
Rule that one back.
Chris Christie, question.
You mentioned the priority you put on a leader as president.
Why is that so important?
What advice do you have for the people running?
The president's failed.
And if you want to know why it's so important, you were there.
Read the speech I gave at the Reagan Library.
And I think this is, you know, just an example of somebody who has failed the leadership test.
And more than anything else in these jobs, what I've learned is there's no substitute for knowing how to lead.
Everything else you can be taught.
You can't be taught how to lead and how to make decisions.
And unfortunately, even though there are areas as you know that I support this president in, overall, he failed the American people.
Because he's failed that absolute litmus test to be president of the United States, and that's to know how to lead and decide.
And he hasn't done that.
So there's Christie.
That's uh pretty blunt.
President's failed.
But has he?
Some things he has, yeah.
But he's succeeded in way too much.
Uh we've been through all of that.
Christie basically said that he's um not gonna run.
He's got to stay and fix New Jersey.
If that's the criteria, he's never gonna run because New Jersey, New Jersey's never gonna get totally fixed.
But uh a lot of people disappointed.
A lot of people disappointed that he's uh choosing not to run.
Interesting story.
This is from the Carolina Journal.
President Obama stood before thousands of screaming supporters back on September 14th at North Carolina State U, urging Congress to pass the American Jobs Act at $450 billion tax increase plan.
Pass this jobs bill, and there will be funding to save the jobs of up to 13,000 North Carolina teachers, cops, and firefighters, he said.
But he didn't say that his bill would fund those jobs for only one year.
Nor did he say how the jobs would be paid for after that, or whether it's exactly what it is, H.R. It's exactly what it is.
100,000 cops of Clinton.
You remember this program, 100,000 cops.
The federal government, in the midst of a crime wave, was going to pay local governments to hire more cops for a year or two.
And after they hired the cops, the money would run out, and then who would pay them after?
The same thing with Obama's teacher plan here.
The money was to hire teachers and firemen and cops for one year.
This is a typical way that the left does things, typical liberal thinking.
Get something passed that has no way to be continually funded, leaving the state to hold the bag after the feds drop it on him, which is what's happening right now with unemployment compensation, as we told you at the beginning of the program.
The states are now in debt a total of 38 billion dollars after funding the feds' mandated unemployment compensation extension.
It's the states that pay for that.
They had to borrow money from the federal government to pull it off because the states didn't have the money.
Now the first interest payments are due on the borrowing, a total aggregate interest payment of one billion dollars is due Friday.
The states don't have it.
But this is how the feds get their hands in.
So the 450 billion dollars, oh yeah, we're gonna save your teacher's job for one year.
And then if the states don't have any money to keep those people hired, they lose their jobs.
The um 100,000 cops thing, Clinton thing, only uh 69,000 jobs.
69,000 cops and others ended up uh being hired.
So this is this is typical.
This is the way they go out and do things, make a big grand announcement.
Oh, yeah, we're gonna fund jobs, 13,000 teachers for a year.
Then after that, it's up to the states.
And if the states don't have the money.
Tough toenails.
Be back after the By the way, when these teachers get laid off after one year, who gets blamed for it?
The nearest Republican.
Through budget cuts.
And Republicans don't care.
The Republicans are accused of cutting budgets when Obama only funded something for a year.
And the cycle repeats.
Republicans get all defensive, try to show no, we don't hate teachers.
We love teachers.
We didn't cut the budget, try to go out and explain it, the media gangs up, and that's the cycle.
Fund something for a year, those people lose their jobs, you blame it on the Republicans for having no heart and no compassion.
And the famous budget cuts and so forth for their rich buddies, all that sort of stuff.
And that's how it works.
Here's Michelle in Hoover, Alabama.
Michelle, I'm glad you waited.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Hi, Rush.
Hi.
Um, I have to say that I normally agree with you 99.8% of the time.
Thank you very much.
Appreciate that.
But you're wrong on something today.
Well, what?
You're wrong about the Chris Christie Wait thing.
Well uh what did I say that uh I'm wrong about?
Well, I believe that that if it was a woman that, you know, and she was as large as Chris Christie is that they people wouldn't vote for.
I don't think that's a reason not to vote for someone because you should vote for them on their ideas, but you even pointed out that Hillary people didn't want to watch her age in office.
Yeah, I agree with you on that.
Very, very uh shrewd of you to remember that.
Oh, well, thank you.
I didn't think I said that per se.
I asked the question, which irritated them even more.
Well, irritating them is a good thing.
But it wasn't uh yes, it is, obviously.
But I I don't think I uh you might have been confused.
I was reading from a Washington Post column by a female named Ruth Marcus, and she was saying that uh a a woman as large as Christy, female candidate, would never even have a chance at being president because she would have never been elected governor because she's too fat, that there's a prejudice against fat women that doesn't exist against fat men.
That's what she was saying.
Well, I don't know.
I just think that, you know, people I mean, look at what happened when Kennedy and the Nixon debate.
You know, people thought Kennedy won the debate because they watched it.
People thought Nixon won the debate because they listened to it.
Unfortunately, it's a sign of the time.
People pay attention to those things.
Well, there's I mean there's no question about it.
Uh but uh we just shoot straight here.
I mean, there are countless examples of ugly people being elected to office.
Now, I don't know about president, but there are lots of ugly politicians.
Remember, showbiz, politics is showbiz for the ugly.
It's where people who can't get on television or can't star in movies go.
Politics.
Well, I mean, Margaret Thatcher wasn't attractive.
She got elected.
Uh it's not who I had in mind, but uh.
Uh that that's my point.
Well, I understand your point on that, but in today's culture, and especially in this country, people pay attention to that.
I don't think they should.
It should be about people's principles and ideas and how we're gonna get this country back on the right track.
But I just thought you were wrong, and it pains me to say that Russia wrong.
Okay, tell me again, wait a minute.
I'm I'm still confused.
Tell me again what I got wrong.
That and if I understood you correctly, you said that the weight thing wouldn't be an issue, that she would not be elected even the woman, the article said the woman wouldn't be elected governor because of if she was overweight, correct?
Yeah.
And you the point of the piece was to show the inherent unfairness to women that fat women in politics don't have a prayer, whereas fat guys do.
And that's all she's saying, and she's it's a reality, and it ticks her off that it's a reality.
She thinks it's anti-woman, they think it's another burden that women have they have to face going through uh that that's look at she's right.
Why do you think I so thoughtfully and creatively wrote undeniable truth of life number 24?
Feminism was established so as to allow unattractive women easier access to the mainstream of society.
The very Fact that that so irritates people is proof of how right it is.
Because in many many cases today, the most offensive thing anybody can say is the truth about something.
Political correctness created to mask and hide the uh truth.
The same liberal columnist who says a woman as large as Christie would never have a chance at being president is part of a liberal mindset to trash thin conservative women who run for office, including Palin and Bachmann.
So they they trash conservative women no matter what.
Uh Janet Napolitano, Janet Apollo, don't uh Janet Napoleon.
Janet Palatano was a governor.
Janet, that's right.
And and uh see, so was uh no, still say Shalela.
Shalina was university president.
Different thing.
Uh Michelle, thanks the call.
Appreciate it.
This is Mike in Washington, D.C. in the area there.
Great to have you on the program.
Hi.
Hi.
Well, we conservatives don't have to worry about any unattractive women because obvious obviously uh Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachman are both very attractive, so we're blessed in that regard, are we?
Yeah, I I I think if you um dare I say this, I probably shouldn't say it, but I'm just gonna give voice to what everybody recognizes.
You watch any cable news network and you take a look at the female roster of Democrat analysts and strategists and the Republican side, and you conclusions obvious.
Sure, you're right again.
There's no question.
I mean, it's just it is what it is.
The reality is what it is.
Yeah, absolutely.
I mean, I could name names, but I don't want to embarrass anybody here, but we all know that this is true.
Now, what what was it that you called about?
I know this wasn't it.
No, it wasn't it.
Uh today your show is the epitome of the reasons I started listening many years ago.
Oh.
And is you bring some accountability to our government and its taxpayers and the institution and the processes therein.
But you've introduced a couple of areas that concern me, and one is the uh fast and furious and uh gun control.
Yeah.
Uh I recall under the Clinton administration, you pointed out that the Clinton administration was emasculating the military while arming civil agencies, civilian agencies to the teeth.
Uh well, yeah, there's a three years where we were exactly there was yeah, there was a an argument could be made for that, yeah.
Yeah, you said that.
And uh I firmly believe that the Second Amendment is probably one of the reasons we've kept our freedoms as long as we have.
Guns scare me.
I don't own a gun.
Yeah.
And I recognize the dangers in having one around.
However, I fully support the second amendment in every regard.
Well I I think it is the baseline, the foundation of why we've kept our freedoms as long as we can here.
Yeah, that and the right to property.
Sure.
People do not understand the importance of uh right to property.
They can uh focus on free speech, which is important too.
But you know, the the uh uh thing about gun control, even the libs now.
I'll tell you when his first hit me.
First of all, I knew a title wave had happened that nobody had seen.
It's the 1980 presidential campaign.
It's George W. Bush versus Al Gore.
And in one of the debates, Al Gore, out of the blue, starts talking up the right to bear arms, supporting the right to own guns.
And I'm saying, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, what has happened here?
What have I missed?
Because up till that moment in time, the Democrats have been trying to say the second amendment doesn't mean you can have a gun.
They've been trying to either alternately interpret it that way or get it just ignored or written out of the Constitution.
Well, what changed it was polling data.
The Democrats have to govern against the will of the people, but in order to get elected, they have to pander.
And so they pan, and there's the the the I know for a fact that Gore did not believe in the second amendment, and John Kerry did it when John Kerry shows up in Indiana or Iowa dressed up like Johnny Carson making fun of a hunter, and he walks into some tackle shop or something says, Is this where I can get me a hunting license?
I don't know anything about guns.
Doesn't support anybody having them, but the polling data was clear.
You lose if you are of the mindset that you want to take guns out of people's hands legally.
You take guns out of the lives of innocent people, you are in trouble.
So these Democrats have to publicly acknowledge it.
But look what they do when they get elected.
Hello, fast and furious.
This is what they're capable of.
So they they arrange a program that is designed to put guns purchased in Arizona in American gun stores in the hands of drug cartel thugs in Mexico.
They figure that those guns are going to be used in the commission of crimes.
Murders, mayhem, and what have you.
The plan was to have that happen, and then to have outrage and shock and dismay when we learned that those guns originated in Phoenix.
You mean the Mexican drug cartel was killing people, some cases Americans and drug agents with guns purchased at a Phoenix drug gun store?
They wanted a national outcry of opposition to this, shut down the availability of guns.
That was the whole point of Fast and Furious.
So behind the scenes, try to create a phony situation to toy with public opinion.
Because, never forget this, when the public expresses an opinion at variance with liberalism or the Democrats, they never respect the public's opinion.
They then see the need to subvert it.
Corrupt it and get around it.
That's what Fast and Furious was.
Well, now this is really helpful.
That the economic recovery is close to faltering.
There is no recovery.
What in the what what I there isn't a recovery, man?
I want to pretend that there is, and now that recovery.
How's that recovery working for you?
That hope he changed anything.
Now that recovery is close to faltering.
Well, it was it would if we go back into recession, of course it'd be double dip.
What else would you call it?
That's what they um want.
Look, I P I checked the email during the break, as it's predictable.
I got I got it coming at me from every imaginable direction on this whole business of uh weight appearance and so forth.
Let me just let me just tell you point blank, folks.
I don't care what Ruth Marcus said.
The f the truth and the fact of the matter is that female politicians get a pass on every aspect of their appearance.
They get a you would never have stories about how some female politicians fat, like there are stories about Christie being fat.
You wouldn't have those stories.
When's the last time you saw a story on Barney Frank being fat?
When's the last time you saw?
Uh well, it fits.
It still fits.
When is the last time you don't have it, but all these stories with Christie being fat, they're all over the place.
Will they have the stamina?
Will he have the energy?
Will he have the health?
You don't have those questions there.
There are plenty of lard ass women in politics.
And they get a total pass on it.
Who's next?
Joe in East Hampton, Connecticut.
Great to uh have you on the EIB network.
Hello.
Ross, thank you.
It's an honor talking to you.
How are you doing today?
Very, very well, sir.
A little depressed.
Uh no iPhone 5, Apple stock down 11 bucks, by the way.
Yeah, but you don't live in Connecticut, so hey.
So there's always could be worse, is what you mean.
It could be worse.
And it just got a little worse, and I gotta share this with you.
Um, a little while ago you were talking about the unemployment and how the states were being forced to pay the unemployment, and now their interest payment is up and coming and is due.
Yeah.
Well, small business owner in Connecticut.
And um, the people, if they can't make the interest payment, the people aren't actually going to lose their Jobs because the state of Connecticut just went navy blue from light blue.
I actually got an invoice from the State of Connecticut for a hundred and ninety-two dollars and twenty-seven cents for my business to pay my portion of the interest that is due.
On the unemployment payment.
Yes.
$192.27 for your business to pay your portion of the interest.
My portion of the interest of the state of Connecticut cannot pay.
Okay, so that's the one.
Okay, so um.
No, I a lot of people, states don't have any money.
That's what the story's all about.
The unemployment compensation mandated by the feds.
They borrowed money from the feds to make the payments, extended unemployment benefits.
Now the first interest payments due.
The total indebtedness, 38 billion dollars.
They don't have it and they don't have the first round of payments, they've raised taxes, is what you got.
You gotta you basically have a tax increase bill.
It is.
That's what you your taxes just went up 192 bucks.
It absolutely is.
Now what do you mean you've gone from dark blue to light blue?
No, no, no, no.
Light blue to dark blue, it's getting darker.
Oh, I thought you meant it was turning less Democrat.
I misunderstood.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
More uh it it's I mean, it's great listening to you and um a bunch of the people that associate with you know your your shining star because it is depressing living here.
It really is.
And it's like each and every week there's something, it's a it's another I got you.
Yeah, and you don't even know what's happening.
I know, and what ticks somebody off is people in the know understand it's on purpose.
Oh, yeah.
It's on purpose.
There are there are ways, there are ways to uh prevent this kind of damage from being.
Look at we've been saying for years extending unemployment benefits was going to cost businesses.
It all government doesn't have any money until it goes and gets it from other people.
So all these people seeing their unemployment compensation, they think, well, I was deducted from my paycheck, it's my money.
No, no, no, no, no.
Everybody else is paying your unemployment.
Everybody else is paying for you not to work.
Businesses, citizens, governments not paying it.
They don't have anything.
And you're you're self-employed, Josie, you don't get any unemployment insurance yourself.
You don't qualify being self-employed.
Joe in Warren, Pennsylvania.
Hi, and welcome to the Rush Limbaugh program.
Hi, Rush, thanks for taking my call.
Yes, sir.
I just wanted to touch on something that you mentioned in passing a minute ago about how the Democrats and the Liberals uh fund things like teachers for a year, and then after that the funding drops off.
Yep.
I just got laid off.
I was a teacher, and luckily Warren is a uh sort of a conservative part of Pennsylvania, so I'm I'm lucky to be here with some real down-to-earth people, but I became a teacher.
The union kind of strong armed me into joining because they have something called pay your fair share.
Yeah, which is about 80% of the full dues anyway.
So I thought, well, all right.
So but anyways, this past year they laid off about a fifth of the whole staff in the county, and uh a portion of those people got back, and I unfortunately was one of the people I'm a social studies teacher, which puts me right in the heart of you know, shaping young minds with real history and not what the history books kind of teach.
I didn't even use the history books they gave us, but anyways.
But you had laid off.
I did get laid off, and now people come around, you know, the head of the union goes around and starts screaming, uh, Tom Corbett, this guy, can you believe him?
That's what you're gonna get.
I warned you.
And I don't have any ill will towards Tom Corbett or anyone else who's trying to get this fiscal situation in order.
What they should have done, and what I'm telling them that they should have done now is that when I was hired, I should have been told that I was hired with federal money that's going to run out after a few years.
No, then I gotta tell you that because when you get laid off, the next phase is to blame the nearest Republican for it for cutting the budget.
They can't tell you that.
That that'd be exposing the whole program.
So that's it.
The whole thing works.
That's the cycle.
Fund something for a year.
you Call a press conference, talk about how great you are, how much you care, education, your kids, more teachers after a year, the money runs out, teachers Get fired.
Look at those evil Republicans and those budget cuts.
They don't care about education.
They don't care about our kids.
And the pressure's on to uh uh reinstitute the funding.
Republicans go out, oh no, we don't hate kids.
No, no, we like education.
No, we didn't do this.
Yeah, you dastardly Republicans.
You hate teachers too.
And you hate students and you hate kids.
You just hate everybody.
Well, and that's the cycle.
It's gotta break.
It's gotta we've got to break it.
Okay.
The Apple presentation is over.
There is no iPhone 5.
And I told, I can't tell you how many people ask me.
Friends of mine.
I said, I'm telling you guys there isn't an iPhone 5.
There's not going to be an iPhone 5.
Tell you when there's going to be.
Let me tell you right now when there's going to be an iPhone 5.
The iPhone 5 will come out sometime next year when they're ready to put legitimate LTE 4G speeds in it for ATT and Verizon.
Right now, the networks are not rolled out enough.
The chipsets for it are too big and use too much battery power.
Not enough people have 4G LTE phone speed availability anyway.
So that will be the iPhone 5 when they would legitimate LTE, 4G speeds.
That'll be the next iPhone 5.
The next iPhone, and that'll be the 5, and it'll be sometime.
When it's not, it won't be until the LTE 4G networks are widely rolled out and the chips are manufactured so they don't churn the battery.
That'll be that'll be the five.
Mm-hmm.
All that, all the blogs said they're going to be a cheap phone, a moderate phone, and the iPhone 5.
They were all over the place.
I don't know if there's a cheap iPhone 4 only, not a 4.
Yes.
I did I haven't, I haven't.
I am hosting the show here, Snarly.
I I haven't really been able to catch everything.
I do multitask, but I haven't seen any reference to a cheaper version of the iPhone 4.
I I I think my guess is there will be 8 gigabytes.
The uh get rid of the iPhone 3GS, sell the iPhone 4 as an 8-gigabyte, you know, 49 phone.
They may keep the 3GS as a free phone if you get a contract with uh whatever carrier.
But I guarantee you a lot of people out at Apple's auditorium walking out of there singing Peggy Lee's, is that all there is?
Because they were expecting.
They were hoping.
Usually the scene, these guys already had one, they've had renderings, photos of what the iPhone 5 looked like.
Much bigger screen, thinner teardrop design.
All these guys are orgasming over it.
Stock is down uh 11 bucks.
It'll be back.
It'll be back.
Okay, I was right in everything I thought.
Everything I told you, snurdly was right.
The 3GS phone's free with a contract.
The four is eight gigabytes at 49 bucks or 99, 49 bucks.
Whatever.
The 4S is the only phone that the dictation stuff works on.
And the 4S, so you'll have to buy a new phone to get the dictation to work.
And the uh memory is double to 64 gigs, 64 gig hard drive and the uh in the iPhone 4S.
Plus they're adding sprint, which everybody knew.
No big deal.
Here's Chris Christie, by the way.
He got a he got a question from a reporter about weight.
Are you too overweight to be president?
Is that a fair question to ask?
To say that because you're overweight, you are therefore undisciplined.
You know, I don't think undisciplined people get to achieve great positions in our society.
And so, you know, that kind of stuff is just ignorant.
And the people who wrote it are ignorant people.
What they do is they further stigmatize people in a way that is really irrelevant to people's ability to do a particular job.
And so, you know, those are the people that we should really look down upon, are those folks.
That's going on offense.
That's going on.
You know, if you go back and look at pictures, we've had some pretty hefty presidents.
You know, there's a time in American history where where being fat was the quintessential sign of achievement and success.
It was uh it was not at all a negative.
It was way back.
I'm talking about the days even before air conditioning.
It was it was uh that far ago.
It was uh 1900s, it was uh sign of status.
It was you're yep, yep.
You were you were uh affluent, so forth.
Now, of course, we know that you don't have to be affluent to be a pig up uh to be um overweight.
Uh Robert Taft, Robert Taft was uh was over 300 pounds.
He got stuck in the White House bathtub once.
Robert Taft did as a Republican, too.
Now, Clinton didn't get stuck in the bathroom.
He got well, yeah, yeah, the the the little the bathroom off the study.
Yeah, in the uh oval office.
But he has interesting thing here.
I don't think undisciplined people get to achieve great positions in our society.
Here's this whole notion that obese people are undisciplined.
There are some stereotypes that attach to uh being overweight, and that sadly is one that's never going to go away.
No matter what anybody says or does, the fact that an overweight, even obese person is always going to be considered undisciplined.
There's no escaping it.
Now, other people are described as having outsized appetites for life in general, passions at large.

Look at Roseanne Barr.
Look at Roseanne Barr.
Look at all she accomplished.

Another exciting day.
The EIB network is sadly forced to take a brief 21-hour break, 21-hour pause.
We will do that.
We'll come back, uh, actually close out this program and see you again tomorrow to do it all over again, revved up, ready to go.
And looky here.
Senate Republicans will force a vote on Obama's job bill.
Jim Dement says, well, the president says he wants a vote.
We're gonna be sure to give it to him.
Now the reason is uh Dingy Harry.

Some Democrats said I had Dingy Harry.
I don't want my Democrats uh up for reelection, have to vote on a tax increase last week.
So the Republicans are thinking they said, let's force it, let's force a vote.
Let's put these Democrats on record.
Raising taxes going into an election.
That's the plan.
Okay, folks, we will be back in 21 hours.
Thanks for being with us today.
