	You're guiding light through times of trouble, confusion, murkiness, tumult, chaos, economic distress, foreign policy danger, national security, unsafety.
	And yet even the good times, Rush Limbaugh here at the EIB Network, and it's great to have you here.
	Telephone number 800 282-2882, the email address L Rushbo at EIBNet.com.
	It's actually fascinating to watch side by side Fox and CNN or Fox and MSNBC.
	I don't watch MB MSNBC anymore.
	Just in the break, top of the hour.
	CNN will not let go of the movie.
	The movie is the sole cause of this.
	They're showing unrest around the world, and the subhead, their graphic on the screen, is this movie and this YouTube video and this wacko preacher and so forth.
	And on Fox, they were doing a story that we did in the first hour of the program that the attack in Benghazi was a two-pronged coordinated strategy that had been in the works for a long time.
	And that they're using the movie to incite their mobs.
	Here's here's the way to understand this.
	And I it's it's not, I don't want anybody under misunderstand the comparison.
	The people climbing the walls at our embassy in Egypt and the people doing the shooting and the rabble rousing in both places are pawns.
	They are being whipped into a frenzy by this movie.
	It is in that sense, it's um a factor.
	They are the equivalent of maybe I don't want to go there.
	But in the sense that they're being used and duped, they're the the the equivalent of many Obama voters and supporters.
	The Al-Qaeda terrorist leaders, it's not about a movie to them.
	It was 9-11.
	It's the fact that they don't like us and there's nothing new about it, and we don't have to do anything except exist to be the targets of these kinds of attacks.
	We don't have to do anything other than exist.
	It's not the movie.
	But there's CNN doing everything they can to relate everything to that movie and that kook and that wacko, and therefore the fact that conservatives are in America is our problem.
	That's their theme.
	That's the underlying message throughout the rest of the media, not just CNN, that the problem in America is Christians, conservatives, small government types, people who don't support Obama.
	And there's Fox doing the truth about the two-pronged, long-held strategical move that this was in Benghazi.
	And that Fox even had the detail that there was coordination between our so-called friends there who gave up the security people that moved our ambassador, then gave up his location to the mob.
	That was part of the story, too.
	This is a this this plan's been um in the works for quite a while.
	The movie is just, you know, it it's what Obama would do as a as a community organizer in Chicago to get people whipped up against unions or not unions, but ripped up against corporations.
	It's no different.
	It's the same psychological approach.
	You got community organizers over there that are whipping their mob into a frenzy.
	The mob's a bunch of ignoramous dupes falling for it, being used in almost like marionettes.
	They're puppets.
	The same way that community organizers in this country whip Occupy Wall Street into a frenzy about AIG or corporations or what have you.
	It's amazing to note the similarity.
	Now I want to do so.
	I want to go back to the archives again.
	To the groove yard of forgotten sound bites.
	I think it's important, based on the call that we had from El Paso.
	The woman made the point that the Muslim Brotherhood exists because Obama pretty much supported them.
	Obama wanted to be rid of Mubarak.
	And if you remember this whole Arab Spring happening, Teriri Square in Cairo was a hubbub of activity.
	The anti-Mubaric forces were going nuts, and it was only a matter of time before Mubarak would be forced out.
	And at the time, if if you recall, we were told, well, the military's gonna end up running country because they do now.
	And whoever the military sides with is whoever is going to run who is going to run the country.
	And at that time, the Muslim Brotherhood was well to those of us who knew they were the major player.
	They were the ones behind all this.
	But to Obama and the media, the Muslim Brotherhood, including, in fact, one of Obama's national security advisors was on television characterizing the Brotherhood as the nice faction of militant Islam.
	The guys you can do business with, the guys at the corner, the moderate element, they're the good guys.
	If anything is going to happen in Egypt with the Muslim Brotherhood, that's cool because they're the good guys.
	That's...
	And I remember being frustrated as I could be at that narrative and spent a lot of time on this program attempting to inform you otherwise that the Arab Spring was not a democratic outbreak.
	In fact, there were a lot of us having problems because some of the conservative media people, people on our side, were falling for this too.
	They thought this was the uh outgrowth of some great democracy project, that the Arab Spring was spreading the democracy of Iraq further.
	The tentacles were spreading out throughout the Middle East.
	And it was starting to show up in Egypt, and from there it would sweep to Syria, and uh problem with Israel would minimize.
	And a bunch of us for the time warming it warning it's the exact opposite.
	This is an uprising by Al Qaeda types, by militant Islamists, by Islamist supremacists, whose objective in all of this is to take over the Middle East and get rid of Israel.
	That's what was happening.
	Obama was trying to convince people that this was an outbreak of democracy akin to his election and campaign.
	And it's at that point we want to go back in time to our audio sound bites.
	We've played these before, you've heard them, you know them, you love them.
	But I think it's important, folks.
	I want people who are new to the program to understand context as much as possible, to be able to understand points that I am asserting here, so they get the context of it.
	To illustrate what I just said, in fact, Nick Robertson, a CB of CNN was in Tariri Square February 11th, 2011.
	This is after Mubarak has stepped down from power.
	The Brotherhood has not yet asserted itself.
	Military's still running a show.
	But it is assumed by all the media there that this is wonderful.
	This is the great.
	We got rid of a tyrant.
	We got rid of Mubarak, and now Egypt can be free.
	Now Egypt could be a democracy.
	And it was BS then, it's BS now.
	And here's Nick Robertson, CNN, doing man on the street interviews in Tariri Square.
	You've been here down on the square for many days.
	United States, the international community just listened to President Obama say that America will support Egypt if it wants help and assistance, and hopes that there'll be a good transition for jobs for the young people.
	What would your message be for President Obama?
	We don't know actually who's and people seem for our feet on and democracy.
	Any uh country, uh people, not okay.
	Owen Burbank.
	Okay, so Nick didn't get what he wanted there.
	He's looking for men on the street to say Obama's our savior.
	Obama's our salvation.
	Obama made this happen.
	We love Obama.
	Obama had just made a speech talking about jobs for Egyptians and reviving the middle class, sound familiar.
	Uh and Nick Robertson doing Obama's bidding was over there, wanted for the consumption of the American news public to see that the Egyptians loved Obama and supported Obama.
	And that Obama, in fact, was largely responsible for all this outbreak of love and great news in Egypt.
	But he didn't get what he wanted.
	Not one of the people he spoke to wanted to credit Obama for any of this.
	Here's the next that was Ahmed.
	So now Nick Robertson moves down the street and finds Mustafa.
	Ms. Half is joining me now.
	President Obama said that he wants to extend a superpolitics to Egypt and Egyptians and once any hopes that there are more jobs for the young people in the future.
	What your message for President Obama.
	Well, my message for President Obama is just we started this revolution without any outside help.
	And we are going to finish it also without any outside help.
	President Obama, who the hell is he?
	We don't care about President Obama.
	He's got nothing to do with this.
	This is our revolution, and he's not getting credit for it.
	I haven't seen him over here.
	So Nick Robertson beside himself now.
	He'd be just been stiffed by Ahmed.
	Now Mustafa has told him he's wasting his time.
	So he now continues here, and I think this is tries again with Mustafa.
	Are you pleased that President Obama has come out, however, now and said he supports the change and supports the people and supports the young people and what they've done?
	Well, actually, Britain Obama views were kind of conflicting during the last week.
	But now he's saying that he's supporting the change.
	So Mustafa said, look, we don't know where he is.
	He's aware whatever day it is, whatever he thinks is going on here is what he's said in order to make it look like he's in charge here, but he had nothing to do with this.
	So poor old Nick is struck out here with Ahmed and Mustafa.
	But you see, even the reason I want you to hear this again is because this was an attempt by the media to make all of this in Egypt.
	Great credit to Obama.
	Obama made this happen.
	Obama, the father of democracy.
	Obama cleaning up all the corruption of the Middle East.
	And I'm just saying that if back in 2011 CNN and these people were going out of their way, try to convince people that Obama was responsible for this, then by God, where are they right now?
	If Obama's responsible for the Muslim Brotherhood, if Obama supported their jobs program for the young people, if you can believe that, then where are they now?
	Is it logical to assume that if Obama was responsible for all of this revolution and wonderfulness that happened, then doesn't he have some culpability?
	No, I'm just asking if you're CNN, if you're the media.
	So Nick at CNN, Nick Robertson, has realized here that it hasn't gone the way he's intended.
	Ahmed and Mustafa both said, Obama, not a factor.
	Now Nick realizes that his audience at CNN is so dumb that he can tell them that they didn't see what they just saw.
	And that's exactly what he does.
	The view from here is one of very happy to now to hear that President Obama has swung behind the people.
	Not one person that Nick Robertson spoke to said that they were very happy to hear that Obama has swung behind the people.
	They said just the opposite.
	And yet Nick Robertson, the view from here is one of the happy to know to hear that President Obama swung behind the people, which is the whole point of the story.
	The whole point of the report, they didn't actually get that, but Nick knew that he could tell his audience don't believe what you just saw.
	Believe what I'm telling you here.
	So the end of the report, people of Egypt loved Obama.
	Obama brought him freedom.
	Obama brought him democracy.
	Well, here we are.
	What happened?
	What went wrong?
	I leave it for you to answer.
	We'll take a timeout and be right back.
	Back to Ben Bernanke for just a second and QE3.
	Forty billion dollars of bond purchases a month, mortgage backed securities purchased by the Federal Reserve To uh stimulate the economy.
	Nothing they've tried before has worked.
	What this is the Federal Reserve, Ben Bernanke going all in for Obama today.
	I'm telling you, folks, they are panicked in Obamaville.
	It's like I said moments ago, they really, with all this support they're getting, all of this propping up from the media everywhere.
	Hollywood, academia, pop culture.
	Obama ought to be up twenty.
	They should have been able to take Romney out just this week over this national security business.
	If Obama had any believability, if he had any credibility, if the media had the power that they used to have, if the media had the monopolistic power they used to have, they could have killed Romney off the past couple days.
	And they're trying.
	They're still trying, and I'm telling you, they're frustrated as heck that they haven't been able to.
	So here comes Bernanke today with QE3.
	And I want nobody knows what's gonna happen.
	Theoretically, what ought to happen with this kind of printing of money is hyperinflation.
	What ought to happen here is the cost of things skyrocketing.
	Gasoline, grocery bills, utilities, you name it.
	We have never done this before.
	This country has never printed money like this before.
	We've never borrowed money like this before.
	Not even a fraction of this.
	We've never pumped.
	We've never tried this before.
	We have never flooded the country with illegitimate dollars like this.
	And when I say illegitimate dollars, this is not, these are not dollars that result from any kind of growth or production or productivity.
	These are illegitimate, they're not real.
	I mean, they're real, but they're not related to any economic activity.
	We've never done this before.
	And the stock market right now going nuts.
	They love it because there's new money involved.
	NASDAQ's up 52, which is big for NASDAQ.
	They love this kind of infusion because this money is used to buy securities, bonds, what have you.
	Dow's up 235 right now.
	But it could trigger a market plunge down the road.
	Because what this illustrates is that there is panic.
	There's panic at the highest levels of the institutions that have stewardship over this country and its finances.
	If left alone, we're headed to a financial collapse.
	If Obama's re-elected, it's just a question of when.
	Is it 18 months, two years?
	Not a question of if we're going to financially implode, it's a question of when.
	And this pumping now, announced by Bernanke today, is evidence that they're panicked.
	And if anybody gets the idea where the big money is that there's that there's panic behind this, then Katie barred the door as to what might happen with the stock market.
	I'm not going to predict, I don't know enough.
	All I know is this has never been done.
	And now there's nothing more to offer Wall Street.
	And it's clear that what they want is hyperactivity on Wall Street so Obama, because they see there's great economic activity out there.
	That's to cover up all this other middle class shrinks to an all-time low news.
	No new jobs news out today.
	This Bernanke guy is...
	Well, here, Romney has put out a statement.
	The Romney campaign has put out a statement on this today, QE3, and I have the statement.
	I'm holding it here right in my formerly nicotine-stained fingers.
	And here's the Romney statement.
	The Federal Reserve's announcement of a third round of quantitative easing is further confirmation that President Obama's policies have not worked.
	After four years of stagnant growth, falling incomes, rising costs, and persistently high unemployment.
	The American economy does not need more artificial and ineffective measures.
	We should be creating wealth, not printing dollars.
	As President Mitt Romney will enact bold pro-growth policies that lead to robust job creation, higher take home pay, and true economic recovery.
	Note to the Romney campaign.
	Well, later today will you tell us what you're gonna do to do all that?
	I mean, it would help.
	No, I don't doubt them.
	I just lay it out there.
	What are you gonna do?
	What is a pro-growth policy?
	What's gonna lead to job creation?
	What's gonna lead to higher take home?
	Put it out there.
	We know this doesn't.
	Tell us what the plan is.
	Go for it.
	Look at this.
	This is kind of funny.
	A story from Buzzfeed from yesterday.
	Uh uh two days ago, 9-11.
	That's even better.
	Headlines really all you need to hear.
	Obama's plan to use national security to beat Romney.
	One of the most aggressive parts of Obama's acceptance speech last week included a series of jokes mocking Romney's foreign policy chops, indicating a breezy confidence rarely seen in Democrat candidates.
	Wasn't it great?
	One staffer said to BuzzFeed after the speech, I'd like to see Romney try to come back at us after that.
	Another top campaign official would make a similar point if in a more subdued fashion.
	Said for the first time in a very long time, a Democrat has a clear advantage on national security issue.
	This is a real significant shift in our political system.
	Two days ago, two days ago, this is what they're saying in the Obama media.
	They're gonna take Romney out on national security.
	How's that working out for them?
	Think Romney's being hurt by this?
	Oh, they're trying, but Romney's not being hurt by this.
	Romney isn't the president.
	They're doing everything they can to blame Romney.
	All the media.
	It's Rom, but Romney has no culpability here.
	This is not even Romney's policy.
	Needless to say, here's Fran in Wayne, New Jersey.
	Fran, thanks much for your phone call.
	Hello.
	Hi, Russ.
	Thank you for taking my call.
	You bet.
	Uh, I just want to tell you, thank you for representing all our uh beliefs, and uh we're so you know happy that you do it every day.
	It's such hard work.
	My comment is a little uh sarcastic about Obama and his foreign policy.
	Uh Obama and his Democrats, with their non existent foreign policy have succeeded in actually uniting the many radical Islamic sects, something which they have not been able to do for decades.
	It's unbelievable.
	Give me an example of what you mean.
	Well, I mean, for example, uh, all of these people who have our radicals, they've had all their different agendas, and the Brotherhood, the um Al Qaeda.
	I mean, he is actually making them into one, you know.
	So the Shiites and the Sunnis are finally united against us rather than I mean it's it's incredible.
	And and they've never been able to get along amongst themselves.
	This is uh this is true to a certain extent.
	The Iranians don't get along with all the others.
	Yes.
	Yeah.
	Well uh but they are, they're circling the wagons around Iran.
	I mean, even the Saudis uh not crazy about what's happening in Iran, but yeah, it doesn't help but with Obama out there saying, well, Egypt not an ally.
	Egypt not an had to walk that back today.
	Barack Obama foreign policy wizard.
	I have to I just have to laugh.
	Thanks.
	Thanks very much, Fran.
	I appreciate it.
	Here is Neil and Matthews, North Carolina.
	You're on the EIB network.
	Hello.
	Hey, Russ, thanks for taking my call.
	Yes, sir.
	Hey, listen, you've been expressing your amazement today at Obama's utter cluelessness that there are so many people in countries around the world that still want to kill Americans.
	Well, in answer to your amazement, as a perfect example of Obama's foreign policy, is an environmentalist named Timothy Treadwell.
	This guy thought he could live in peace and harmony among coastal grizzly bears in Alaska.
	But after several years, in 2003, the bears finally did what predators do.
	They killed and ate both Timothy and his girlfriend.
	Oh.
	Oh, gee.
	That is horrible.
	I mean, is environmentalist wacko is trying to live uh in harmony with the bears.
	That's exactly right.
	And and you know, to show what what was he trying to prove.
	Well, he he just he just thought that if you were if you were nice to them, if you you you know stayed away from them, that they wouldn't harm you.
	But obviously Obama's adopted a Timothy Treadwell foreign policy.
	I s well, I'll tell you what I think.
	I uh I I well I'm that'd be repeating myself from the from the first hour.
	Uh and I I try not to do that, because you all only have one chance to listen to me each and every day.
	But there is something to that.
	Um these people come out of this conflict resolution type thinking, uh, and and United States is wrong.
	Uh we're unjustified in our superpower status.
	Uh we're not the legitimate leader of the world.
	We don't deserve that.
	Blah, blah.
	They believe this.
	And and they think that people hate us for the same reasons they hate America.
	They think that the people around that are enemies don't like us because the same reasons they don't like America.
	And they all they've got to do is run around and express uh solidarity with these people.
	And that though they'll lay down.
	They'll understand that they now have friends in leadership positions in the United States, and we'll all be happy together, Turtles, 1967.
	And when it doesn't work out that way, Mrs. Clinton, Diane Feinstein, whoa, we don't understand why we liberated this population from this evil despot and we protected their buildings, and we I don't how how could this happen?
	And they literally are blindsided.
	They don't get it.
	It all starts with their view that this country's guilty, along the lines, same way that we're accused of being guilty by our enemies.
	And it's a shame.
	It's uh it's it's frustrating and maddening at the at the same time.
	Because they think we're unjust, we're immoral in our founding and the way we've conducted our affairs.
	Uh, and they think that enemies' hatred of us is somewhat justified.
	And therefore, if they could just establish commonality with our enemies on those same lines that they can mollify our enemies.
	Therefore, when somebody makes a video that makes fun of Mohammed the prophet, they agree with our enemies that that is the problem, and they are too blind to see that they hate us for reasons and nothing to do with the video.
	They hate us because we exist as we do.
	They're still the party of blame America first.
	San Francisco Democrats at that 1984 convention, boy, were they on a roll to blame America first Democrats and the San Francisco Democrats.
	It's still the blame America first crowd.
	Just to express it in the most simple terms.
	And they think by doing that, that as I say that that by showing these bad guys that they understand it, they get it, that the bad guys are gonna like us now, or at least like them.
	It's a it's it's a naivete that's unspeakable.
	It's a it's a naivete that is unbelievable.
	You can't believe people who are this ignorant, naive, sheltered, whatever, could get to these positions of power.
	But of course they have.
	Uh Jerry, Sandusky, Ohio, great to have you on the program, sir.
	Hello.
	Hi, Russ.
	Thanks for taking my call.
	Yes, sir, you bet.
	Um, my question has more to do with uh given their hatred for the Constitution and um they're trying to redefine hate speech if they'll go after this movie since they're concentrating on the movie.
	If they go after that as something they go after speech in churches or anything like that.
	I think it would be well worth your while to be on guard.
	I don't think that's out of the realm of these people's possibility.
	If they if they thought they could, they would do it.
	One of the things that really bothers them the most is freedom of speech.
	Because in freedom of speech is opposition.
	And Obama, for a example, hates opposition.
	It resents it.
	How dare anybody oppose him?
	He is the kind of guy you give him the authority to silence it, and he would do it.
	He's not the only one, though.
	That's what a statist is.
	That's what a Marxist liberal Democrat is today.
	Jerry, thanks for the call.
	Brief timeout, my friends, and we'll be back with more after this.
	And we're back.
	Great to have you here, El Rushball and the excellence in broadcasting network on the fastest week in media.
	Here's John Kerry yesterday in Washington on Capitol Hill, talking with reporters about the attacks on the U.S. embassies in Libya and Egypt, and he had to throw in some words about Mitt Romney.
	Make those kinds of statements before you even know the facts.
	Before families have even been notified, before things have uh played out, uh, is really not just inexperienced, it's irresponsible, it's callous, it's reckless.
	And I think he ought to apologize.
	Uh and I don't think he knows what he's talking about, frankly.
	That's that simple.
	Before the families had been notified, Romney was reacting to everything everybody else knew.
	But anyway, John Kerry, that's irresponsible.
	It's callous.
	You don't speak out before you know the facts.
	He ought to apologize.
	Well, this guy ought to know, April 22nd, 1971, Vietnam veteran John Kerry testifying before a Senate foreign relations committee.
	They told the stories of times that they had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals, and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies,
	randomly shot at civilians, raised villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan, not isolated incidents, but crimes committed on a day-to-day basis with a full awareness of officers at all levels of command.
	As John Kerry undermining the Vietnam War in 1971 at a Senate foreign relations committee hearing, lying.
	Lying about these atrocities that had not occurred.
	December 4th, 2005, CBS Face the Nation, John Kerry discussing the troops and the war in Iraq.
	There is no reason, Bob, that young American soldiers need to be going into the homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children, you know, women, breaking sort of the customs of the historical customs, religious customs, whether you like it or not.
	Iraqis should be doing that.
	Iraqis should be the terrorists.
	Iraqis should be doing the raping.
	Iraqis should be randomly shooting at civilians.
	Iraqis should be terrorizing kids and children.
	Now he was reacting to allegations, which were later proven to be false.
	He was reacting to allegations that the Marines in Hadita had raped and pillaged.
	And there was another Democrat, John Mertha, who also jumped in this bandwagon before he knew the truth of anything.
	And Romney has done nothing of the sort.
	Romney has done not one thing that even approaches What John Kerry and the Democrats routinely did during the last four years of the Iraq War, 2004 through 2008.
	Romney hasn't even gotten close to showing the disrespect for the troops, harboring desires of defeat.
	Romney accused no troops of any malfeasance.
	Romney accused no troops of any malfeasance.
	There's your modern day Democrat Party, personified by the arrogant, pompous, haughty John Kerry, who, by the way, served in Vietnam, as he loves to always remind people.
	This is interesting.
	There's a uh uh organization called OSAC.
	It's the State Department's Overseas Advisory Council.
	OSAC, State Department Overseas Advisory Council.
	And five days before the attacks in Libya and Egypt, they sent a memo everywhere declaring there was no threat.
	OSAC currently has no credible information to suggest that Al-Qaeda or any other terror group is plotting any kind of attack overseas to coincide with the upcoming anniversary of 9-11.
	They had no clue.
	State Department, no clue.
	And now these things have erupted all over the region.
	And the focus now is America.
	All the protesters.
	Death to America!
	Death to America.
	And just two days ago, it was the Obama regime telling their media friends that foreign policy, national security, that's where they're going to defeat Romney.
	That's where they're going to show Romney has no clue what's going on.
