Time Text
Hey, welcome back.
Great to have you, Rush Limbaugh, the EIB Network and the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
Telephone number if you want to be on the program is 800 282, 2882.
A lot of people checking the email.
A lot of people weighing in on what was it that caused the breakup of the team?
Everybody's got their own starting point.
It's fascinating to listen to some people's opinions on this.
I'll share them with you in just a second.
But I've got another example of media propaganda.
Dana Milbank, today's Washington Post, the Tea Party loses another round.
It was another great day to be a member of the Washington elite, is how Mr. Billbank writes his piece.
Article goes on to crawl about how the House of Representatives passed three free trade agreements.
Peace makes it clear that the Tea Party doesn't like free trade agreements.
I thought the Tea Party did.
Michelle Bachman has pushed for these free trade agreements.
Anyway, from now on, we are going to be getting a steady diet of stories like this.
Chronicling the demise of the Tea Party's power.
That's I predicted this to you.
I mean, everything is coming to pass.
And I even, folks, I hate look at.
I hate I told you so is.
You do too.
But we predicted this Republican establishment thing, too.
We told you they don't like conservatives.
They don't like rocking the boat.
Here's one theory as to when the team broke up.
The morning that George H.W. Bush claimed victory in 1988.
Rush, all of the people that you have mentioned in the New York Times piece, Crystal Scott Reid, Vin Weber, all these names, are former colleagues of the gentleman who wrote me the note.
The switch from Reagan to Bush carried with it the sense that the revolution was finally over and that the Republican establishment was back.
It was palpable.
They were ecstatic that the eight years of Reagan had come to a close.
It wasn't long before Bush White House aides were giving Reagan people grief about wearing Ronald Reagan cufflinks in the White House.
The Bush people were saying to the Reagan people, this is the Bush White House, not the Reagan White House.
The Bush people were saying to the Reagan people, this is the Bush people, this is the Bush people.
This is the Bush White House, not the Reagan White House, snapped someone I knew well who had been treated very well by the Reagan team and was then a prominent White House Bushy.
And it was said in the New York Times on the record there was far more going on than Bush versus Reagan.
It was the establishment versus the conservative rank and file.
Rush, you have hit the nail on the head, and by now this sentiment is clearly understood by the Tea Party.
This is a considerable undercurrent in a campaign on our side without doubt.
Another theory.
Rush, I totally remember the very first time I saw the split between the conservative elites and us.
It was over illegal immigration, California, Prop 187, 1994.
They all scolded us about how wrong we were, and that if we, the base, were seen as anti-Hispanic, there would be no future for the Republican Party.
I remember how shocked we all were at being scolded by our own guys.
They all were doing calculations on demographics.
We were focused on principle.
Remember, Rush, how mad they all got when you emphasized principle over policy at your CPAC speech.
Anyway, there might have been earlier cracks, but that California battle was one I noticed big time.
We in the base couldn't believe they didn't see it our way.
Prop 187, of course, was Californians were simply sick and tired of paying for welfare, health care, education for illegal immigrants.
And they voted not to anymore.
And a federal judge said, hey, you can't do that.
That's unconstitutional.
So anyway, it's uh it's heating up.
And one of the one of the reasons I've I've I've said that for the Tea Party to ultimately succeed, it's going to have to take over the Republican Party.
You can't go third party.
Third party's the end of the line.
You um you have to uh take over the party, and and the party doesn't exist.
You know, I honestly honest to God, can you pronounce the name of the chairman of Republican National Committee?
You can I can't now I'm deaf, so I've never heard it pronounced.
I look at it, I can't pronounce it.
I don't know how to pronounce it.
Uh I don't know what they're doing.
I don't know what these I don't know what I don't know what he's doing.
I don't there there is part of the, you know, what one of the reasons why there is so much attention being focused on this presidential nomination process, and it's natural that there would be, is that people instinctively and perhaps subconsciously are aware that there isn't any leadership anywhere else, and that all of the leadership for what we believe is going to have to revive or if it reside in the nominee.
Ergo, that's why there is so much angst about it, because the establishment is pushing a nominee who is a fairly liberal Republican who has no intention of rocking the boat.
It would be Romney.
And Romney is working behind the scenes to get all these states to move the primaries up.
Romney wants the votes to be taken now because I think that they know that that uh well Dan Henniger has a has a great great piece to the Wall Street Journal, the unsinkable Mitt Romney.
The candidate will have to be pushed a lot harder to make him a good president.
Hanninger's point, Henniger's point is that Romney hadn't had any competition yet.
He's gonna have to be pushed to be a consistent conservative because it's not his instinct.
He's gonna have to be pushed there.
He could be president, but in the current Obama morass, so could a hundred other people.
What voters, including Republican voters want for the United States now is the best possible president.
Romney isn't there yet.
Only more competition or criticism will get him there.
And he doesn't want that.
He wants these primaries.
This is drudging a story of the New Hampshire primary December 6th.
So it's clear that Romney people are trying to move it up, and the reason they're trying to move it up is because they know that he's vulnerable.
I you know, a lot of people have asked me about the question.
A lot of people have asked me, Rush, why do you think none of those candidates hit Romney up on his advisors helping Obama put together Obamacare?
That's a damn good question.
But you know the um the question that he asked Michelle Bachman, as I mentioned yesterday.
That was clearly a question to elevate her, maybe put the notion out that she is being considered for VEP as a as a way of bringing the Tea Party along.
Uh, because it it wasn't really a question.
It was, you've got some great ideas on jobs.
Would you expand on that in a debate?
So it's so it's clear that the Romney people think that Bachman has no chance.
She's out of the race.
That that's what that question meant.
That she's not a factor now.
So let's let's see if we can bring her in and and uh make people think that we might be considering putting her on a ticket as a means of co-opting a Tea Party people.
So there were a lot of um interesting dynamics.
Newt did not press Romney, I don't know why.
Perry didn't prace Rom uh uh push Romney on it.
There are a couple theories that Perry is laying low on purpose.
And just waiting.
I'm just telling you what the theories are.
There are a lot, there are a couple stories today.
If you give up on Perry now, the story says you're making a big mistake.
You don't end up being a long-term governor of the second largest state in the country by accident.
You got to keep an open mind about this, Snerdy.
The point is that everybody is being sucked in to the notion that this is all over.
And the truth of the uh of the matter is.
It really hadn't even begun yet.
Newt, or I'm sorry, Mitt Romney is not even really being challenged yet.
You stop and think about it.
And so Mr. Henniger's point is we're going to have to have more of that.
He makes a great point.
Anybody could get elected against Obama right now.
That's the real world.
So could a hundred other people, Henniger writes.
What we want is the best possible president.
We don't have to settle for something.
Okay, you can stop with I've got 50,000 people now telling me how to pronounce the chairman of the RNC's name.
Now I'm got now that I've got disagreements.
One person says it's Rhine's prebus and the other says Rentz Prebus.
So it is that's what you've heard most is Rentz Prebus.
Okay, the Henniger piece a great piece.
Uh now, over the years, Romney has uh he's he's steadily drifted to the right because of constant pressure from conservatives.
But that's not what we want.
We don't want somebody that has to be moved.
We don't want somebody that has to be pushed to the right.
Rather have somebody that's there because that's where their heart is.
Now the Tea Party know all about the establishment.
They came together to fight the establishment of both parties.
Tea Party knows exactly what's going on here.
Anyway, let me take a break here because I've been I've been promising to get to these uh sound bites here of the Romney advisor.
We're gonna do that after the break and then on to your phone calls.
Rushbow back before you know it.
Rush Limbaugh, the EIB network.
Now, Henniger's point, for all of you out there getting negative, the fact anybody can get elected right now.
That's Henniger at the Wall Street Journal saying that.
We know that.
This has been my point all along.
He says, why we need a conservative.
Anybody can get re-elected.
We don't need to pussyfoot around.
We don't need to play games, the usual games about trying to appease the independence.
The independents are just as ticked off as everybody else is about what's been done to the country.
At any rate, last night on PMS NBC's last word, hosted by Larry O'Donnell, an avowed socialist.
He spoke with former Romney health care consultant and MIT professor of economics, Jonathan Gruber about his uh having helped the regime craft health care reform.
O'Donnell said, come on, come clean.
You were in the room with Obama discussing health care reform, and you did in fact work with the Romney administration in Massachusetts.
Come on, professor, you gotta tell us the truth here.
The truth is that the Affordable Care Act is essentially based on what we accomplished in Massachusetts.
It's the same basic structure applied nationally.
John McDonough, one of the uh other advisors who worked in both Massachusetts and advised the White House that it's the Massachusetts bill with three more zeros.
And that's basically a good description of what the Federal Bill did.
Well, uh John Gruber, Romney Healthcare Consultant.
The truth is the Affordable Care Act is essentially based, it's Obamacare, based on what we accomplished in Massachusetts.
The same basic structure Applied nationally.
John McDonough, one of the other advisors, worked in both Massachusetts and advised the White House, said it's the Massachusetts bill with three more zeros.
And that's basically a good description of what the Federal Bill did.
So you got Romney's own advisors out there undercutting him.
Not through here, Larry O'Donnell.
So obviously the Massachusetts experience with it was uh part of what moved him in the direction that uh where he ended up.
You know, when I was advising both the Obama administration and Congress throughout 2009, the number of times I got asked, how did you do it in Massachusetts?
What made it work in Massachusetts?
The administration and Congress are taking a big leap into unknown territory, and the fact that they had that example to lean on was so, I think, comforting to them in taking that step.
Uh it just the pile here just gets larger and larger.
You're listening to Jonathan Gruber, former Romney health care consultant, MIT professor of economics, about his having helped the Obama regime craft health care reform as basically a carbon copy of Romney care.
And there's one more.
Larry O'Donnell says, Well, Romney makes a very strong point about the Obama bill being full of taxes to pay for it, and the Romney bill didn't have a tax increase in it to pay for it.
Yeah, I mean, that's just technically true, but intellectually uh not really straightforward.
Basically, in Massachusetts, the financing for our bill came half from the federal government and half from an existing tax that former governor and presidential candidate Michael Dukakis had put in 1988 to finance care for the uninsured.
So we didn't have to raise tax in Massachusetts because the money was already there.
At the federal level, we didn't have that luxury.
It wasn't like China was going to come pay half the cost of the Affordable Care Act.
There was no bigger government coming to help us out, and so we need to raise taxes to finance it.
The money was already there.
And what that means is to you is that your tax dollars were already being spent on Massachusetts health care.
So we didn't have the regime didn't have another government to come in and fund his health care bill like Romney had the federal government to come in and fund his, which means you and me.
So we had to raise taxes for it.
This did not come up in the debate.
It did not come up in the debate.
And you know that these candidates knew of this.
You know they knew of it.
So the reason it didn't come up, fascinating to me.
We can only speculate.
Maybe a candidate here didn't want to bring it up because that candidate's already got problems somewhere else that could be commented on.
Chris Christie said the other day that any comparison between Obamacare and Romney care would be dishonest.
And now here's Romney's advisor.
Bragging.
Bragging about it.
And the Republican establishment wants to move the elections of the primary elections up to cement the Romney choice nominee.
Now, late Tuesday afternoon, Lebanon, New Hampshire in a press conference where Christie endorsed Romney.
Reporters said, could you comment on a report that three aides of yours advised the president on health care reform?
I don't believe they were aides.
Uh they're people who uh were consultants and so forth.
But uh I'm sure the president uh got lots of ideas, but the one person he should have talked to that he never talked to was me.
And if he had talked to me, I'd have told him that the plan he was crafting wouldn't work.
I I've just put this out there for you folks.
Um this issue is not gonna go away.
I do not believe that it is going to go away.
You know what this is Romney saying if Obama had just talked to me, I got a spared is like Bill O'Reilly saying, if Al Gore had just come on the factor, he'd be president today.
He talked to the wrong guy.
If if if Obama would have called me, I'd have told him why it wasn't gonna work.
Romney's advisor, uh it's the blueprint.
It's the foundation and told him what would work and how to get the money for it.
Then you sneak a phone call in here.
Where are we gonna?
Pittsburgh.
This is Patty.
Great to have you on the program.
Welcome.
Right, one of my top ten all time favorite male names.
I am so honored to talk with you.
Thank you very much.
I appreciate That's cute.
You are um you're my you're my sanity since my dad's passed away.
I'm just glad my dad is not alive to see this.
He was a World War II vet.
He would be sick to his stomach.
My dad, too.
My my my dad, I that I would gosh, I would love my dad being alive now to be commenting on this.
I would crave that.
I would love to be able to get my dad on this show as a guest.
I would love to hear that.
I think my dad.
I look at a pi uh piece of paper every day that George Bush sent for honoring him, and I just thank God it's his name on that paper, not Yogi Bear.
Because that's I I can't take listening to this guy anymore.
He was in Pittsburgh yesterday, and he just wants to circumvent.
If he can't get things done through the Congress, he's he's telling people down there to get his advisors together, and they'll do whatever they got to do to get some of this stuff through.
I j I just think it's time uh there's days I just feel like giving up.
I'm fifty-one years old.
I've done all the right things, and I'm unemployed now.
It just it just it breaks my heart.
I go on job interviews, they say, well, you're overqualified, but then I get things in the mail for job retraining.
I think.
Oh my gosh.
You know, this is like this is hypocritical.
They're spending taxpayers' money on this.
I'm more than qualified to do anything.
But uh it just it just breaks my heart anymore.
I I just can't believe it.
Would your dad want to apologize to the Japanese like Obama did?
My dad would have.
Oh my gosh.
I'm wondering if my dad's turning over in his grave right now.
I hear you.
Thanks for the call.
We'll be back.
Our last caller from Pittsburgh said she's getting um things in the mail.
Job training, so forth.
I have a story here from the Wall Street Journal a couple of days ago that has not gotten any attention.
Green jobs brownout.
Or how to spend 157,000 per job.
Now listen to this, folks.
Listen to this.
We're already dumping taxpayer dollars all over a solar industry that doesn't work.
Cylindra just the tip of the iceberg.
George Miller IV, the son of a big-time Democrat member of Congress in California, he got I think a billion dollars from the federal government for a solar energy firm that's gonna make its products in Mexico.
There is there there this is it defies explanation, what's happening.
There's no business there.
There is no industry, and this regime is continuing to funnel taxpayer dollars to a non-existent business, solar energy and panels and so forth.
A new report by the labor department's Office of Inspector General examined a $500 million grant under the stimulus program to the employment and training administration to quote train and prepare individuals for careers in green jobs, unquote.
So far, about 16 or I'm sorry, 162.8 million dollars has been spent.
The program was supposed to train 125,000 workers.
Only 53,000 have been trained so far.
Of the 53,000 who have been trained for careers in green jobs, only eight thousand thirty-five have found jobs.
And only one thousand thirty-three were still in the job after six months.
So we have a half a billion dollars in stimulus money, porculus money.
Supposed to go to jobs training for so-called green jobs.
Three years later, only a third of that money has been spent.
Only 40% of the people who were to be trained have been trained, and only 15% of those trainees have gotten jobs, and only 12% of those people have kept the job for six months.
So, all told, fewer than one percent of the people who were supposed to be put in green jobs by this green jobs training program now have jobs, and it Only has cost $157,000 per job.
And there's no business there.
But that's not all.
There is more.
The regime has expanded the definition of green jobs now to include bus drivers.
EPA regulators.
University professors.
That now qualifies as a green job and therefore suitable for federal funding.
Even the Washington lobbyists who have been scoring these bad green energy loans.
Meanwhile, Obama's latest jobs bill asks for more of exactly the same kind of jobs training for more green jobs.
Now the inspector general who uncovered this latest fraud says the still unspent money from the green jobs training program should go to reduce the deficit.
He doesn't realize that this leftover stimulus money was always meant to be left over.
It was always meant to be unspent.
This is the slush fund.
This is Obama's stash, the unspent stimulus money meant to provide the regime with their walking around money for the 2012 elections.
This Obama stash.
All under the guise of job training for green jobs.
And again, the numbers supposed to train 125,000, and now after six months, only a thousand thirty-three are still in the job, and the number is going to fall.
Because there is no green industry.
Who's next?
Uh Brian in Atlanta.
Great to have you on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hey, Rush, how are you doing?
Uh I'm okay, sir.
Thank you.
Well, you said that the uh Tea Party sh uh uh shrinking, and uh I'm a Tea Party leader here in Atlanta, and I can tell you that is uh absolutely false.
No, no.
I didn't say it.
I am what I'm saying is that the Republican establishment and the Democrat Party are joined together with the media in creating trying to create the impression that the Tea Party's dead.
Yeah, wishful thinking.
It's still a bunch of racists, but it's dead.
That's what they're trying to do.
Well, I can tell you that uh And that's been replaced, by the way, in popular culture energy with the Occupy Wall Street crowd.
Tea Party's gone.
This is the real protest movement now, the Wall Street crowd.
That's the impression they're trying to create each and every day in the media.
And it's all being done to dispirit people like you.
Well, it's not working.
Well, good.
You know, people were very very jazzed.
I mean, we we just showed the movie agenda, and uh we almost had to turn people away.
And um if people were fired up, we were just at an air show, and um our booth was constantly busy, people were just telling us keep going, they wanted to know when the next meeting was.
Uh, we have people sign up left and right.
Um it's it's uh starting to swell again uh for the 2012 elections.
Well, you and I know this.
I think it's only growing, and the passion is only swelling, and that's why the ongoing effort here to diminish if the Tea Party had really faded away, they'd be ignoring it, it wouldn't be even reporting it.
Um and they wouldn't have started this wall, Occupy Wall Street thing.
That the the whole reason for the uh creation of the Occupy Wall Street protests is to counter the impact of the Tea Party.
It's all part of a it's all part of a grand design.
Stakes are high.
The establishment in Washington, both parties, ruling class, the elites, whatever you want to call them, they realize that they face a real threat.
That's why on our side they're trying to secure the nomination for Romney early, get these uh primaries moved up on the calendar.
Uh it's uh they all feel threatened by this.
And what's really odd about it, the Republican establishment, if it were worth anything, would be looking at the glaring weaknesses of Obama and trying to capitalize on them.
And you know, that's not what they're doing.
Stop and think about that.
The Republican establishment, you d I can't find Any evidence they're trying to capitalize on this weakness.
Republican establishment seems to be focused primarily on marginalizing the Tea Party and Tea Party freshmen in Congress.
Now the Occupy Wall Street crowd, they're down there.
They're demanding more taxes, they're demanding more freebies, they're demanding more successful people be thrown in jail.
The Tea Party wants less taxes and smaller government.
Who do you think represents real America?
Establishment types.
No it.
We've not, nothing has changed since November 2010.
Since November 2010, the majority of Americans have not all of a sudden, you know what?
We kind of like what Obama's doing.
We like houses being bulldozed in Michigan and now Ohio.
We like unemployment 9.2% and getting worse.
We like the fact that we can't get jobs and nobody's getting raises, and we like the fact our tax rates are going to go up, and we like the fact that this health care bill that nobody wanted is going to be implemented.
Yep, yep.
Everybody, we can see that change.
That's what they want us to believe.
That's what they want.
And if they can't make you believe that, they want you to believe that the effort to stop this is pointless, that you're not big enough or strong enough, nor large enough to stop it.
And that you don't have a candidate that can stop it anyway.
They just want you to give up.
They want you to pack it in.
They want you to surrender.
They want you to think of yourselves as totally ineffective, meaningless, and worthless.
That you can't stop them anyway.
So you may as well stop even caring.
That's what they're after.
Back after this.
And I just asked a question.
The Occupy Wall Street protesters demanding more taxes and bigger government.
Tea Party wants less.
Who do you think represents real America?
Well, continuing with the theme of the day.
I am holding here in my formerly nicotine-stained finger.
A Time magazine poll.
Occupy Wall Street more popular than the Tea Party.
Right here it is.
A Time magazine poll taken, October 9th and 10th, with a base of 1,01 peoples, has turned up some interesting results about how Americans view the Tea Party, Occupy Wall Street, and dysfunction in Washington.
Now get this, 81% of respondents think the country's in the wrong track, but they are reluctant to place the blame on Obama.
50% of the respondents disapprove of the way he's handling the job, but 59% think he cares about them.
What the hell does that have to do with anything?
But they ask it so they can report it.
Half of the respondents say he has the toughness necessary to see this through.
On an exceedingly grim note, only 4% of the people polled feel positive about the state of the country.
The poll asked people to identify which faction of government best represents their views.
30% identified with Democrats.
17% said Republican, 12% went with the Tea Party.
So you had up 29%.
So they admit that their sample is skewed.
So if you're looking for a left-right bias, it leans slightly to the left, assuming the designations of Democrats of the left, Republicans and Tea Parties to the right.
But if you dig even deeper into the numbers, the Tea Party was more hated than organized Wall Street.
Tea Party had 24% very unfavorable.
Organized Wall Street only 13% very unfavorable, while organized Wall Street was more readily embraced, 25% very favorable against the Tea Party's 8%, very favorable.
There you have it.
So according to Time Magazine, the Tea Party's hated, disliked.
80% think the country's going the wrong direction.
59% love Obama cares about them.
And the Tea Party is hated much more than organized Wall Street.
So it's an all out effort now.
It is an all-out push.
Yesterday on this program, I uh I mentioned that Romney had uh said some things back in June about climate change.
I want to replay what he said for you.
It was June 3rd in Manchester, New Hampshire at the University of New Hampshire, and he held a town meeting.
And during the QA, a guy in the audience said nearly all the other candidates suggest there's no scientific consensus on climate change.
Some insist it's not even happening.
We can't have a meaningful discussion about solutions until there's agreement about the problem.
Well, you, sir state now that under a Romney administration, global warming will be accepted as reality.
And this reality will form the foundation for all climate and energy.
So a commilib finds his way into Romney's town hall and lays down a marker.
Now Romney being Romney wants to please the economy lib.
I believe the world is getting warmer.
I can't prove that, but I believe based on what I read that the world is getting warmer.
And number two, I believe that humans contribute to that.
I don't know how much our contribution is to that, because I know there's been there have been periods of of greater heat uh and warmth in the past, but but I believe that we contribute to that.
And so I think it's important for us to reduce our emissions of pollutants and greenhouse gases that may well be significant contributors to the climate change and the global warming that you're seeing.
Okay.
Now I don't even know if that's the position of the Republican establishment.
Hi, Frank, you don't know where the Republican establishment is on Glob Global Warming.
Well, I guess is they probably think it's happening, because they want big government.
All right, uh Mark in Houston.
Glad you called, sir.
You're up next to EIB network.
Thank you, Rush.
Commandeer is the appropriate term, and the Tea Party can commandeer the GOP, especially if you could pronounce the last name of the chairman, Halen.
But that's not why I called.
I believe the Tea Party is very silent because we're we're just listening.
We're listening.
We got a little bit of bamboozled by some of these rhinos in the last election.
Well, we don't want to get hit by some keenos in this election.
Um what are you gonna do?
We're gonna listen.
We're gonna listen to see who the guys are up there that are talking uh Tea Party and the guys that are up there who are acting Tea Party.
And so far, the best guy acting Tea Party is Hermann King.
Um well, he's leading in the polls right now.
Newt Gingrich has moved into third place, by the way, in the poll that has Hermann Cain at the uh at the top of the heap.
By the way, uh Herman Cain is going to appear on Meet the Press Sunday.
It was uh it was just announced.
Let's see, did it grab we'll wait on that stuff.
I gotta check and see what I got.
I just got transcripts for some sound bites, but I haven't read them yet.
Rather than play, I'm not knowing what they are.
I'll wait.
Mike St. Louis, great to have you on the program.
Hello, sir.
Hi, Rice.
Hi.
Um you were talking earlier about the Republican establishment and and and when it took over after the conservative revolution.
And and when that was.
Well, what I said was that in a media sense.
I can when I started this program in 1988, which was the end of the Reagan years, the beginning of the Bush years, I I was under the impression that all of us in the conservative media were on the same team.
Now we're not.
I and so the question was when did the split happen?
I've been trying to think about it, and other people have been calling in, writing in with their theories on when the split happened, and that's what you're calling about, I'm sure.
Right.
I'm calling about the realization that I had that the Republicans didn't stand for me anymore.
And that was when they didn't follow through on the Cleeton the Clinton impeachment.
I thought that they should have taken more action there.
I just felt that you showed me that all the elites are gonna stick together.
Yeah, that was instructive.
That that was very instructive.
That was the establishment circling the wagons.
I think they scared themselves.
The Republicans.
Yeah, they had a case.
They had a case, and look what it did to Lindsey Gramnesty.
I mean, he was one of the House managers.
He was one of the house managers presenting the case in the Senate for the impeachment of Clinton.
I think, I think, in truth, not not just that.
But don't forget, Newsweek spiked the whole Lewinsky story.
If it weren't for the intrepid Matt Drudge, that'd have never hit the uh hit the wires.
We'd have never known about it.
And I I think uh the elites, the inside the beltway established, they were just that whole Lewinsky thing embarrassed them.
They they they thought it was beneath them.
