Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 podcast.
All right, safe to say that the media has.
I guess they safe to say that they have destroyed George Zimmerman.
They set out to destroy George Zimmerman, they've done it.
It's unconscionable what they've done.
George Zimmerman doesn't have a microphone, can't fight back, was just singled out and destroyed.
The third network has come forward today and admitted that their original interpretation of a tape involving words spoken by Zimmerman may now not be correct.
The third network, the first was NBC, which admitted doctoring a 9-11 tape.
This is not an accident that takes place in the hustle and bustle of putting together a newscast.
This was a purposeful racist, hate-oriented decision by a major American network to lie to the American people about a person involved in the Trayvon Martin case, George Zimmerman.
Then ABC puts out police video where they claim no, there's no sense of injury here to Zimmerman.
no sign of anything he says.
He says his head was beaten against the ground and he had a bloody nose.
There's no sign of that.
And then all of a sudden, ABC decides that they're going to enhance the video and And they say that they strip a layer away.
And then all of a sudden, lo and behold, there is evidence of injury on the back of George Zimmerman's head.
Now it is CNN saying that after enhancing the audio of Zimmerman's 9-11 call, they don't think he used a racial slur after all.
The original report said the first inaccurate reports from the rooftops, meaning that they just screamed this, is that George Zimmerman referred to Trayvon Martin as a...
Two words.
The F-bomb.
I'm not even comfortable saying what they said he said.
It turns out that now they've enhanced the audience.
They took it into a different room.
Gary Tuckman at CNN said we took it into a different room and we listened to it again.
Now it's pretty obvious he didn't say what we thought he There was no racial slur.
So at no time, there's as a result of this.
The entire basis on which the mainstream media has been reporting this story has been shown to be a total lie and made up.
They wanted there to be a racial component to this so bad that the New York Times referred to Zimmerman as a white Hispanic.
For only the fifth time that anybody could find in the New York Times archives.
Greetings, folks.
Here we are, Rush Limbaugh behind the golden EIB microphone, the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
The telephone number if you want to join us, 800 282-2882, and the email address L Rushball at EIBNet.com.
The word that they said that Zimmerman used to describe Trayvon Martin rhymes with Goon.
Do you know what it is?
Dawn's looking like she doesn't know what it is.
What if okay, James told you?
Um rhymes with Goon, rhymes with June, rhymes with Moon as an animal by the name of this uh the second syllable of the name of the animal has this word in it.
And now CNN is all of us.
Folks, do you realize that the entire foundation of this story has now been blown up across three networks by their own admission.
After the fact, long after all the damage was done, and over at Politico, you don't even find any reference to NBC's apology or admission that they did something wrong.
You don't even find one little reference to it.
In a media blog.
Ostensibly.
We've got the tapes.
We'll show you what this is all about.
There's something even...
well, I wouldn't say it's worse, but you have to hear it.
Earlier this week, our beloved deer leader showed up at the American Society of News Editors to make a speech at lunchtime.
This was the annual Associated Press luncheon.
And Obama shows up, and he was introduced by a guy by the name of Dean Singleton.
Dean Singleton is the chairman of the Associated Press.
What is the Associated Press?
The Associated Press is a news wire, predominantly.
They do have audio networks, radio news networks, and they do on their websites and video, but they're predominantly a um wire service.
And they are responsible for 90% of the national news that shows up in every newspaper outside the New York Times, Washington Post, LA Times and Blah.
They're everywhere.
And they want everybody to believe that they're straight down the middle, that they are uninterested in the outcome of events, that they are just as fair and unbiased and objective as the business model demands and calls for.
They are the epitome of journalistic standards.
That's the AP.
That's what they want everybody to believe.
I have three sound bites here of Dean Singleton introducing the President of the United States.
Here's the first.
I asked him a question from the audience related to how he might deal with Obama bin Laden if elected.
In his always genteel way, he asked, might you be referring to Osama bin Laden?
It was a slip of the tongue heard around the world.
Thanks to the delights of our digital age and YouTube in particular.
I won't soon escape that embarrassing moment, even four years later.
But we do have the answer to the question.
Today today, there is no mistaking his name.
And even I can't mess it up.
It's Mr. President.
And they cheered, and Mr. Singleton continued.
President Obama made history as the first minority to be elected president.
Even many who opposed his election felt proud of our country as he took the oath of office.
As president, he inherited the headwinds of the worst economic recession since the Great Depression.
He pushed through Congress, the biggest economic recovery plan in history, and led a government reorganization of two of the big three auto manufacturers to save them from oblivion.
He pursued domestic and foreign policy agendas that were controversial to many, highlighted by his signature into law of the most comprehensive health care legislation in history.
Now you tell me who wrote this for this guy.
It sounds like Jay Carney wrote this.
Sounds like somebody in the White House worked this.
This is the chairman of the AP introducing Barack Obama to a room full of full of journalists as a messiah.
He overcame such obstacles.
He inherited the worst economy since the Great Depression.
He saved two automobile companies.
He signed the biggest health care reform legislation in history of the world into law.
He's like our God.
Here's more from Mr. Singleton.
While we thought the 2008 White House race was rough and tumble.
The 2012 race makes it look like bumper cars by comparison.
Our country has become even more polarized.
The 1% and the 99% are at each other's throats.
Really, who would want this job in the first place?
We're very honored today to have the man currently holding the office and aspiring for it for another term.
And with apologies to Al Green, my new favorite singer.
Ladies and gentlemen, the president of the United States of America.
And then Obama came out and there were cheers and so forth.
And so you you you have here um The only thing missing at the end of that introduction was I'm Barack Obama and I approve this message.
It's a campaign adelivered by the chairman of the Associated Press.
I'm Barack Obama.
I approve this message.
It came out.
And I I air this for you just nobody else is going to air it.
I mean, in terms of the networks, you're not, you're not going to see it anywhere.
And just to offer you confirmation of where the media is, vis-a-vis Obama, and his re-election, and basically making the case for him.
Whatever they say in the White House is what AP is going to report.
They want accolades.
AP is going to be right there with all the accolades necessary.
Let me take a brief time out.
We'll come back and continue.
Marion Barry.
Remember him, Marion Barry, the former mayor of Washington, D.C. Who wasn't he was he mayor when he was outed in that scandal involving drug?
What was it?
I remember at the end of it, what Marion Barry said was the B.I. itch set me up.
Some woman set him up, and they caught him red-handed doing something.
Breaking the law.
Marion Barry has now won election to something.
The DC C. Oh, that's that's right.
He's a council member.
That's right.
He won the primary.
He will run unopposed in November.
So he's essentially been re-elected to the D.C. City Council.
He said we got to do something about these Asians coming in, opening up these old dirty shops and get rid.
They ought to go.
I just tell you that right now.
You know what we need African American businesses, people to be able to take their places.
We got to get rid of these Asians.
They're coming in here and they're opening up these old dirty shops, and they gotta go.
Marion Barry, former mayor, and of course he'll be perfectly free to say this.
There will be no criticism.
It's impossible for somebody like Marion Barry to be a racist.
Yeah, he was mayor.
He was Mary, uh mayor, and then and he said that the B.I. it set me up in a hotel room.
I forget what it was that she did.
Was it Coke?
He was supplying Coke.
I thought it was drug-related.
I didn't remember.
So anyway, now you Asians, you gotta go.
Uh City Councilman Mary and Barry doesn't want Democrat.
Is there any other elected official in Washington?
Is there a Republican elected in in in DC?
City government?
I don't know him if or her.
Anyway, you Asians, you gotta go.
Your shops are dirty.
Marion Barry wants to get rid of you.
At a school in Massachusetts.
The school is uh the Stallbrook Elementary School in Bellingham.
They just decided.
Nobody had complained.
They just decided to take the word God out of Lee Greenwood's song, God Bless the USA.
The idea was it might offend somebody, and so before anybody's offended, we're going to take the song out.
The word out.
And we're just going to replace it with we all love the USA.
Instead of God bless the USA.
Well, when they did that, some parents applauded it.
Other parents said, What are you doing?
So to avoid controversy, they have now just decided they're going to ban the song.
The song no longer allowed at the Stallbrook Elementary School in Bellingham, Massachusetts.
Massachusetts.
What's Massachusetts known for?
Massachusetts is profoundly liberal.
What does that mean?
Open-minded, tolerant, Accepting understanding of all peoples, even those with whom we disagree.
Nobody had complained.
Some new age touchy feeler, do good liberal in the school just decided, you know what?
This might bother somebody.
God.
Separation church is state.
So then I saw in Fox today, they went out and interviewed a student, some young little girl student.
And I get I shouldn't be surprised.
Well, you know, like it really is uh with with God uh loving our government.
Uh I I I don't know.
I I I think it should stay, but if it came out, well, you know, God and our government.
What is God cover?
What about God in our country?
Where is God?
How do we take God out of this?
You can't look at George Washington's Thanksgiving address, the first one is his farewell address.
It's on the money.
In God We Trust.
The House representatives as a chaplain.
What a what it's just and I frankly, I'm gonna tell you something.
I don't think, you know, the story is of just some do-gooder in there that wanted to avoid offending people.
I don't think that's I think these people are all activists.
And they have an objective in mind.
And that's to take God out of as much as they can in this country, full secularism on parade.
No doubt in my mind.
Lee Greenwood, God bless the USA somehow determined to be potentially offensive at uh Stallbrook Elementary School, Bellingham, Massachusetts.
Fox 25 Eyeball News in Boston reporting children at the Stallbrook Elementary School in Bellingham were told to sing we love the USA instead of God bless the USA.
Lee Greenwood issued a statement.
Maybe the school should have asked the parents their thoughts before changing the lyrics of the song.
They could have even asked the writer of the song, which I, of course, would have said, you can't change the lyrics at all, or any part of it.
The most important word in the whole piece of music is the word God, which is also in the title, God bless the USA.
We can't take God out of the song.
We can't take God out of the Pledge of Allegiance.
We can't take God off the American currency.
And let's also remember the phrase God bless the USA has a very important meaning for those of us, or for those in the United States military.
Maybe what Greenwood ought to do is get together with a Reverend Wright and record a new version of the song.
God Reverend Wright said, gee, damn the USA.
Meeting and surpassing all audience expectations every day.
Rush Limbaugh.
Having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have.
Here is Lee Greenwood's entire statement to Todd Starns of Fox News.
Maybe the school should have asked the parents their thoughts before changing the lyrics to the song.
They could have even asked the writer of the song, which I, of course, would have said, you can't change the lyrics at all, or any part of the song.
The most important word in the whole piece of music is the word God, which is also in the title, God bless the USA.
We can't take God out of the song.
We can't take God out of the Pledge of Allegiance.
We can't take God off the American currency.
Let's also remember the phrase, God bless the USA has a very important meaning for those in the military and their families.
New citizens coming to our country.
The song is played at every naturalization ceremony behind the national anthem.
If the song is good enough to be played and performed in its original setting under those circumstances, it surely should be good enough for our children.
Lee Greenwood.
But it's not suitable at this school in Massachusetts.
And I I watched some people talking about this earlier on TV.
They were laughing about it as though, what a bunch of kooks and idiots at this school.
And they may well be kooks and idiots.
And in past days, years I might have laughed at it too.
It's getting harder and harder to laugh at these people.
may be the best medicine, and it may be one of the most effective ways of dealing with them, but it it's not going to stop them.
It's I just don't believe that it's some pointy headed egghead do-gooder sitting in there biting his or her fingernails worried that somebody's going to be offended.
Why?
Separation of church estates, somebody m well Massachusetts, I mean, Massachusetts loves the fact that they are one of the cornerstone states of the founding of the country.
And supposedly there's somebody at the school that's sitting around worried that a lawsuit might be forthcoming, or that some parent might be offended by this.
And so before anybody even says they're offended, we're going to we're just going to get rid of the, we're going to change the lyrics of song, and then when that doesn't work, we'll just okay, we'll just not use the song.
No, I don't think that.
I I think these activists are everywhere.
What's the word I'm looking for?
They've been planted there over the years.
Sleepers.
That's exactly like sleeper agents.
They've been in there and they're just, they're all over the country.
They're waiting to just pop up.
I got I got an email this morning from Cal Thomas.
And it he got an email from Jim Pinkerton.
You all know who James Pinkerton is.
Pinkerton is on the Fox News media analysis show.
And this is a story from the UK telegraph that these guys were sending back and forth to each other.
Cal Thomas sent it to me.
The headline of the story, and it's dated today, U.S. weapons full of fake Chinese parts.
Thousands of United States warplanes, ships, and missiles contain fake electronic components from the Chikoms, leaving them open to malfunction, according to a U.S. Senate committee.
And then a pull quote here from the story.
However, Song Zhao Jun, a former People's Liberation Army officer who has become a nationalistic commentator in the ChICOM media, said the U.S. got itself into the position it is in.
The U.S. has been dismantling its factories since the 1960s.
And since the Clinton government, the U.S. has turned a blind eye towards military requisitioning.
As it keeps cutting its procurement budget, weapons dealers will keep providing cheaper quality products, he added.
This attack on China is political given the forthcoming elections, but it should not be blaming China.
This is a free market issue.
The only solution the U.S. has is to buy its components from Korea or Japan instead, but then its costs would rise a hundredfold.
So this Chicom guy is saying the U.S., since Clinton has been cutting its defense budget, been closing our own manufacturing factories, have to go overseas to get this stuff.
We've been buying stuff from the Chicoms.
They're manufacturing cheap stuff, and some of the parts are fake.
Some of the electronic parts are actually fake.
They don't function.
Some of them are in jets, some of them are in missiles.
Some of them are in ships.
Fake electronic components.
And the ChICOM guy, hey, this is the free market at work.
If you want stuff that works, go to Korea or go to Japan.
But you're going to pay a lot more there.
Now, before you poo-poo this, remind yourselves of all the stories of what, a year or two years ago with all the paint that was coming in from China had lead in it that was poisoning our precious children.
And then how about the Chicom Drywall scandal?
Remember that?
Buying drywall for home construction and repair remodeling.
We found out that stuff was cheap as whatever.
And and what did it have?
Did it have some stuff in it that was a right?
When it got wet, it got what did it did it emit something?
It was poison?
Or is there a cop?
There was something about it that caused, I thought it caused.
Yeah, I know it had to be ripped out because it was cheap stuff.
It got wet and it disintegrated.
But I'm my memory is that did it not uh emit fumes of some kind.
Yeah, okay.
So now the story is that, and and then there's another weapons story today that Vladimir Putin.
Let me let me find this.
I put it down in the stack.
I intended to get to this.
In fact, I intended to be finished with the CNN stuff by now, and I haven't even really started it.
Sit tight, it's coming up in mere moments.
As soon as I find this Chikon or this uh this Russian story, it's about new kinds of weapon that Vladimir Putin's developed that simply it's a it's a it's a radiation gun that turns people insane.
Uh no weap no bullets, no.
Now look at this.
Here it is.
And it's from the uh the uh Herald Sun, which I don't know what Harold's son, sounds like it's Australian.
While many believed it to be an April fool's joke, Vladimir Putin has confirmed Russia has been testing mind-bending psychotronic guns that can effectively turn people into zombies.
Well I think they probably are using it already, say at MSNBC.
There's zombies already at MSNBC.
Half the country's zombies.
How do we know that Putin's not already now?
Let's be serious a second.
The futuristic weapons which attack the victim's central nervous system are being deployed by scientists and could be used against Russia's enemies and even its own dissidents by the end of the decade.
Mr. Putin has described the guns which use electro electromagnetic radiation, like that found in microwave ovens as entirely new instruments for achieving political and strategic goals.
Now, before you poo-poo this, I want to remind you of something else.
Some years ago, probably four or five years ago, a bunch of Chechen rebels infiltrated a an opera house or some theater in Moscow, and they took it over, and they had a bunch of hostages in there.
And the Soviets, I'm sorry, uh Putin, the Russians, the KGB, solved the situation by using a weapon that nobody knew existed.
There is an opiate, it's a it's a pain drug that's used in hospitals called fentanyl.
Putin found a way to turn that into a gas, and he simply piped a bunch of it in the ductwork, and what it does in high amounts, it just it kills you by stopping your respiratory system.
You fall asleep and you die.
It's not violent.
Uh in fact, there's some euphoria attached to it.
It can be said you die heavy.
That's what he did.
And I remember when it when it all happened.
Wow, nobody's ever done it.
Was a chemical weapon and ribbon, nobody at least people said that they'd never heard of this having been done before.
It was a derivative of fentanyl, I believe.
And I'll never forget it.
So look at what we have.
We got we got a report here in the UK telegraph of fake ChICOM electronics in our military.
Jets, missiles, and ships.
Let's not even because this hasn't been asserted, so let's not even consider that they're not fake, but they're sabotaged to malfunction.
Let's not even think about that.
The ChICOM guy simply said, nope, nope.
We're just putting fake stuff in there and charging you market prices for it.
It's called the free market.
This is so much wrapped up into the Chicons ripping the free market.
I mean, it's the kind of thing the Obama administration would love.
So what happens to the free market?
The people involved in it sell you cheap fake stuff that doesn't work.
Blame us for it for our defense cuts, uh our manufacturing.
I mean, there's so much wrapped up in this little story that just fits every template the left has about what's wrong with this country.
We've stopped our manufacturing, we're cutting our defense spending, we're farming out all of these defense contracts to the ChICOMs.
The Chicoms are putting lead in our paint, selling us Cheap, worthless drywall and now fake electronics.
And telling us, hey, this is what you get if you have a free market.
If you want stuff that works, go to the Koreans or go to the Japanese.
But you're going to pay a hundred times what we're charging you.
This is made to order for what Obama is trying to do here.
Now the Russians, this needs to be said too.
The Russians always publish stories about their numerical weapons.
Many of them never pan out.
So this electromagnetic radiation gun.
I fully expect them to test it on their own dissidents.
I mean, that's that'd probably be their primary use for it.
Bunch of protesters show up in Moscow and just radiate them.
Turn them into zombies.
Make them all like MBC anchors.
And CNN feed.
There's even a Washington Post story on this.
Chinese counterfeit parts found in U.S. weapons.
Story from last November.
Chinese drywall contains hydrogen sulfide, which is the same stuff we spend billions to scrub out of coal-fired power.
Oh, and speaking of that, some high-ranking coal official is out with a story today saying Obama said he was going to put us out of business and he's doing it.
We even did a morning update on this.
So the Russian security services pumped an aerosol anesthetic.
It was later conjectured to be weaponized fentanyl.
If you want to look it up, it's F-E-N-T-A-N-Y-L.
Now the other thing about let me tell it fentanyl.
Tell you how powerful it is.
It comes in a patch, and it is given to end-of-life patients to handle their pain.
And what the Russians did was aerosolize it or gasify it and just pumped it right through the venting, the heat, the duct system inside wherever the whatever the theater was, where the uh the Chechen dissidents and their hostages uh were.
It was the Moscow Opera Theater.
And this drug, after the news got it, violated all international bans on chemical weapons, and they did it.
They used it.
So you have to take this stuff seriously.
Anyway, the CNN doctrine, it's still there, folks.
It hasn't gone anywhere.
We'll be right back.
Recently, ladies and gentlemen, CNN, enhanced audio of George Zimmerman, the man who shot Trayvon Martin, to try and determine if Zimmerman did in fact use a racial slur while calling the cops on the night of the shooting.
Back then, when CNN first examined the tape, sounded like Zimmerman might have used the phrase.
Ah.
Okay, the F bomb ING and a word that rhymes with goons.
How about freaking raccoons?
That's what they thought he said.
Minus the rack.
And his critics have cited that as evidence of a racially motivated attack, along with NBC's now edited 9-11 tape, which has been firmly established to have been edited in such a way to make it look like Zimmerman said something he didn't say.
He did not characterize Trayvon Martin until he was asked.
And he was given multiple choice.
But now CNN has enhanced the audio again.
And the reporter is casting doubts that the term was used.
Gary Tuckman said that when the audio was first enhanced, it certainly sounds like that word to me.
The raccoon word.
But after the latest enhancement, Tuckman isn't so sure.
Now it does sound Less like that racial slur.
This is a couple days after NBC admitted that they doctored this tape and then flimsily apologized for it.
Here comes CNN.
So it's three networks now who've had to say that what they originally reported wasn't true, and each of these three reports have retracted the racial component.
Without this racial, without these fake media reports, you don't have a racial story here.
These three media reports are the only reason we're talking about a racial story.
That and the fact that the race industry saw an opportunity and jumped into it.
I think it's Dr. Sowell, Thomas Sowell in a column today.
No, it's Shelby Steele.
Shelby Steele in the Wall Street Journal, a column today actually says this kind of thing makes the race industry happy.
Because it allows them to continue to pontificate from this stage they live on.
So Tuckman said, so yeah, it does sound less like that racial slur from listening in this room, and this is a state of the art room.
It doesn't sound like that racial slur anymore.
Sounds like we're hearing the swear word at first, and then the word cold instead of the raccoon word.
So that Zimmerman said, it freaking cold, and it was unseasonably cold and wet in Sanford, Florida that night.
And Tuckman says, then the reason some say that would be relevant is because it was unseasonably cold in Florida that night.
The audio expert agreed it sounded like cold and said the new method gets rid of a lot more background noise, but doesn't change the voice or the words.
Well, the whole case is collapsed here.
The whole racial aspect of the case made by the media has apparently just collapsed, folks.
The racial angle in his story is just repulsive anyway.
It's just it has been repulsive since the first day that the media tried to introduce it into this story.
I want to expand on this a little when we get back.
