Time Text
The soundtrack of your conservative life, Rush Limbaugh, meeting and surpassing all audience expectations on a daily basis.
Happy to have you here, folks.
Phone number, you want to join us, 800-282-2882.
If you want to send an email, we check these, as you know, because I tell you about them.
Sometimes I even read verbatim from them.
Elrushbo at EIBnet.com.
I wonder if Ahmedini Zad is going to go on the view or if he's going to be on Letterman.
I mean, that's how you reach the American constituency that you want to impress or be supportive of your efforts.
Hillary Clinton.
No, I'm not going to play the audio.
I've already talked about how the rich don't contribute to economic growth in their countries.
I've got the audio, but let me move on because I mentioned this an hour ago and I haven't gotten to it yet.
It's from Chatsworth Osborne Jr.'s website, The Daily Caller.
As part of a new era of civil rights at the Department of Agriculture, the Secretary of Agriculture, Tom Vilsack, announced Monday that Hispanic and women farmers and ranchers who believe,
simply believe that the USDA discriminated against them can file claims to get a piece of at least $1.33 billion in cash awards and tax relief payments and up to $160 million in farm debt relief beginning this week.
Women and Hispanic ranchers and farmers, you know, the gobs of them out there.
Women ranchers all over the place.
Hispanic ranchers everywhere out there.
And farmers who feel the agency denied their loan or loan servicing applications because of their race or gender at various periods from 1981 to 2000 can file claims alleging discrimination from September 24th, 2012 to March 25th next year for a slice of the payout.
In February 2011, Vilsack announced the historic path to justice for Hispanic and women farmers to offer them an outlet to receive compensation for past wrongs without having to go to court, without having to prove discrimination.
All these people have to do is say they think they were discriminated against and they get some money.
Buying votes during the election from Obama's dash.
Now, this is all part of the Pigford settlement.
Remember, the black farmers were the first bunch to be able to claim.
And remember, what was her name?
Shirley something or other.
I forget her name.
This was a big cause celeb of Andrew Breitbart's, if I recall.
And Breitbart proved that there were a bunch of people who had never been farmers who were claiming they were discriminated against as farmers.
Shirley Sherrod, that's right.
And so these people, it's reparations in a disguised way.
Now, all of this stems from Ronaldus Magnus having done away with the civil rights division in the loan office of the USDA in 1981.
The laws against discrimination were still on the books.
There was still a civil rights division in the Department of Justice, but because there was no civil rights division present at the Agriculture Department, it's assumed that there was discrimination.
Nothing has to be proved.
Honestly, folks, nothing has to be proved.
It was just assumed that there was discrimination.
If there was a black farmer, it had to be discriminated against.
Now, if there's an Hispanic farmer, it had to be discriminated.
We don't need any proof.
We just know what happened because America is a rotten country.
A female rancher doesn't have to prove discrimination.
We know it happened.
She was a woman.
America is unfair to women.
And so here's your money.
That is what the Pigford settlement is all about.
Just the assumption that America is unfair and discriminatory.
There was never any proof that there was discrimination in the USDA.
It was just assumed.
And so this suit, the Pigford suit, goes back to Reagan taking the Civil Rights Division in the loan office out of the USDA.
Now, apparently, there were hundreds of thousands of farmers from all walks of life who were discriminated against by the loan department, the USDA, in those 18 years between 1981 and 1999.
Now, if that's true, who was doing the discriminating?
The government, government bureaucrats.
Who knew they were so damn bigoted?
And what was the USDA doing giving out loans anyway?
Were there no banks to do this?
So this is outrageous to me.
The Agriculture Department under Obama is opening up a new line of giveaway money this time to Hispanic and women farmers and ranchers who believe the USDA discriminated.
I'm not making this up, folks.
They don't have to have any proof.
There isn't any.
It was just assumed.
That's what the whole Pigford case was about.
It was just assumed that there was discrimination.
Well, if you think you were discriminated against, no, because you weren't a farmer, Snerdley.
Well, well, growth in your backyard.
You grow the.
Well, for all I know, you could make a claim if you were, if you were, well, no, no, no, no, because it's 1981 to 1999 when Reagan shut it down, 81 to 99.
That's when this is.
Now, folks, Ann Coulter's got a new book out.
You've probably seen her all over television.
She's got a new book called Mugged Racial Demagoguery from the 70s to Obama.
And it is a typically hard-hitting and at the same time uniquely humorous book.
But it is, you know, Ms. Coulter pulls no punches whatsoever.
She is afraid of no man, no woman, no dictator, no dictatorette.
And so I get the title of the book, Mugged Racial Demagoguery from the 70s to Obama.
There's a tie-in to the elections in that Obama and the Democrats are using racism to get out the black vote, which, you know, in 2008 is one of the things happening out there, I think.
In 2008, the drive-bys didn't have to do a whole lot to generate turnout for Obama because it existed on its own.
He was the Messiah.
He was the one.
His speeches in Berlin and all over the world.
All they had to do in 2008 was just not tell anybody about him.
All they had to do was just continue that theme, that narrative, that he was God, essentially, that there had never been anybody like him in American politics, that Obama alone could unify all Americans, could get rid of partisanship, could make politics functional, end gridlock.
The best of everything would be found and put to good use in virtually every aspect of Obama's presidency.
And Americans would be loved and respected all over the world again, because as you know, the world hates America because of George W. Bush.
I mean, this is one of the things that was thematic in 2008.
So all they really had to do was sit.
In fact, if you recall in 2008 during the primaries with Hillary, the media was split into two camps, and it was the left who started debating whether or not Obama was authentically black, meaning did he have slave blood, meaning was he down for the struggle?
And it was the L.A. Times guy, black columnist who wrote a column called A Magic Negro.
We ought to get that song.
Get that.
We haven't played that in a long time.
And in honor of Ann Coulter's book, it might be a great time to go back to Groove Yard of Forgotten Favors and get the magic because the lyrics in that song tell the story.
And if you're hearing it for the first time, everybody assumes I wrote it, made it up.
This is strictly from an L.A. Times column.
A liberal black columnist, the L.A. Times, called Obama the Magic Negro.
We did a song about it.
But this in 2012, Obama's not drawn to big crowds.
Romney and Ryan are drawing huge crowds.
Oh, by the way, we have soundbite.
Alex Castellanos, our good buddy, the Republican strategist on CNN, is upset at these big crowds, wishes Romney would make the crowds smaller.
No, I'm not kidding.
Not kidding you.
Not kidding you.
Well, it doesn't look presidential.
Let's see here.
Let me find it.
Here it is.
Let's listen to it.
This is Alex Castellanos.
This is at CNN.
This is last night on Anderson Cooper.
Every time I turn on my TV, it's the same political rally with Paul Ryan and the same crowd around him, state after state after state.
And it looks like a political beauty pageant.
And it looks like politics, not like governing.
You don't want to run for president looking like a candidate.
You want to run for president looking like a president.
Go where the problem is, Mitt Romney.
Go to an inner city and find out what's happened to the American family that's falling apart.
Go where the problem is.
Go to an unemployment line.
Talk to some people, but quit having political events.
Oh, there you have it.
That's one of our lead Republican strategists, Alex Castellanos.
H.R.
No, I'm not kidding you.
By the way, if Romney is to go where all the problems are, he's got to go to every Democrat congressional office.
You want to go find out what his unemployment?
Go find a Democrat.
If you want to find out where the inner city is crumbling, go find a Democrat or go talk to Al Sharpton.
American family falling apart.
You want the unemployment line?
Go to the White House.
But Romney's crowds are too big.
He's looking like a candidate, not a president.
Remember all that time Reagan spent the unemployment line.
Remember all that time Reagan spent wherever he thought the American family was falling apart.
HR, you're going to get a call from Alex again claiming that we misquoted him and all that.
We just played the soundbite.
You can just tell him that.
He's a Republican strategist.
Look at, I didn't say it.
Don't get mad at me.
No, no, he did not say to Obama, don't go to Berlin.
He did not tell Obama not to go to Cairo.
He didn't tell Obama.
No, no, he did.
Obama's big crowds are fine when there are some.
He's not drawing big crowds anyway.
This is a dirty little secret.
My point is that the media is having to work harder in 2012 to get Obama elected than they did in 2008.
Now, I know you think that in 2008 they were in the tank for him, and they were, but they didn't have to get the base out.
They didn't really, you know, they dumped on Palin, but they didn't really build Obama up.
They didn't have to.
That was built in.
People were making of Obama whatever they wanted.
They're having to work harder at it this time.
Anyway, Coulter's book, again, mugged racial demagoguery from the 70s to Obama, is a treatise on how the Democrats have used race and black people and minorities to get where they want at the expense.
These people are no better off having been coddled and taken care of by the Democrats for all these years.
Stephanie in Vincennes, Indiana, I'm really glad you waited.
I appreciate your patience.
Great to have you on the EIB network.
Hi.
Hi, thanks for taking my call.
You bet.
I'm kind of frustrated with the whole thing, and I can't understand why there's so many ignorant people out there who don't see what Obama is doing.
Let me ask you, Stephanie, why I ask myself to everybody this, not just you.
Why do you think that so many are ignorant about what Obama is doing?
I guess they're not listening to the news.
No, no, no, no.
How do you know?
Why do you, no, no, no.
Why do you think there are so many?
Why are they ignorant?
Why are you convinced there are so many who are?
Maybe 47% of them are because of the handouts?
Well, it's just serious question.
I think this is what the election is all about.
We are assuming, I do too, that the country is just lazily apathetic, that whatever bad thing happens, nobody's bothered by nobody bothered by the ambassador being shot, nobody bothered by Obama blaming on video, nobody bothered by high unemployment, nobody bothered by the economy never in a state of recovery in three and a half years, nobody bothered by the fact they can't make any money anymore.
Why do we take this?
Why do we all think nobody cares anymore?
What's the evidence?
It's the media.
Aha.
The media just, you know, they lie.
They're not telling the truth.
So you think more people do care about this?
We just don't see reporting on that.
Right, right.
Or are you hoping?
See, isn't the great fear, isn't the great fear that you're right, that a majority of people just don't care in Bucor?
Like you can say, you can say 23 million people aren't working, but they're eating and they're using their cell phones and they're able to watch the NFL on their flat screens.
Right.
And you know what?
I couldn't watch the ball game last night because I. Why not?
You know, I don't have a big flat screen.
Oh, oh, you don't depend on the government.
I see you work.
You work, so you don't have a screen.
Well, I don't have a big flat screen either.
Yeah, I got you.
But I work, and I don't expect somebody to handle it.
I'm going to give you the answer.
The answer to the question is in the polls.
When you see, on one hand, the country literally disintegrating and everything about it that made it great under attack, when you see high unemployment, home values plummeting, I mean, all the evidence of economic collapse, all the debt, when you see all the unemployment, and then you see Obama at 47% with 50% approval, you say, how the hell can this be?
And that makes you ask, why, and how have all these people grown so apathetic?
It's the polls that make you think this way, right?
Right.
Okay.
And that's exactly what they're trying to do.
Okay.
The purpose of the people right now, most of them that are doing these polls, they're trying to make news, not reflect it.
They're advancing an agenda.
They're all Democrats.
They're all liberals.
They just have different jobs.
And the polls are like the replacement refs.
They're watching like they see certain things.
They don't see other things.
They don't call certain things and other things go by.
In this case, what they're trying to do is exactly what they've done in your case.
Frustrate you, make you pull your hair out.
Say, what the hell is happening, country?
They want you thinking the country's lost.
They want you thinking your side's lost.
They want you thinking it's over for what you believe.
And that makes you stay home and not vote.
That's what they're hoping.
That's why you have to fight it every day, Stephanie.
I do.
I do.
And it's so frustrating.
You know, I wish somebody could say, hey, this is what's going to happen on Election Day.
Well, I know.
I would love to be able to tell you.
But see, nobody knows.
Nobody knows.
Not even the pollsters will predict that their poll is right.
My friends, it's the polling data.
It's the reporting of the polls that make you think country's lost.
It's the polls that make you think that everybody in this country is stupid, or at least a majority of people are stupid.
Every time you see a poll that shows Obama ahead of Romney, even if he's under 50%, you go, my God, how can this be?
You see a poll where Obama's approval number, 40% or 50%.
How can this be?
You see Obama's likability number at 65%.
How can this be?
And I'm telling you, that's the exact reaction they want you to have.
But I don't think, I'm going to take a flyer here.
I'm going to take a wild guess.
I don't think there's a pollster out there who would come on this program and guarantee Obama victory based on his poll.
If there is one, I welcome you.
800-282-2882.
But that's surely the, what's her name, Shirley and Vincent?
She was, Stephanie, she was going to ask me if I could guarantee her that Romney would win.
And I don't think a drive-by media person in charge of polls will tell you that Obama's going to win, even though their polls say so.
And of course, the business component of this is that a poll within the margin of error is good for business, keeps you interested.
If they came out right now and say, it's in the bag, Obama's got it, it's over, and they made you believe it, you'd stop paying any attention.
They don't want you to do that.
They want to continue to have access to your mind so they can propagandize you or persuade you or whatever it is, informed, whatever they want to do.
But nevertheless, it's the polls that make you think this.
It's the polls that make you think we're done.
It's the polls that make you think that the country has been taken over by idiots and morons.
By the way, Jay Carney, the White House spokeskid, just said that Barack Hussein Obama said, or thinks, that last night's game shows the need for both sides in the NFL referee lockout to get together and settle it.
He did.
Jay Carney just said that the president thinks that both sides ought to get together and solve it.
Now, Obama's weighing in on the replacement ref situation.
Did he weigh in on the Chicago teacher strike?
He didn't, did he?
I was wrong about that, but I thought that he would jump in there and save the day and solve that for a whole host of political reasons.
But he didn't.
But he's joined this one.
He's not big time in it.
I don't know how it came up.
I don't know if the spokeskid was asked about it or if the spokeskid just volunteered it.
But all I know is the spokeskid said it, that both sides ought to get together, watch Barney, and then sit down and talk and solve this.
And then everybody sing tomorrow.
Some will come out tomorrow, tomorrow.
There'll be a new day.
And if that doesn't work, then go to Conflict Resolution 201.
But Obama wants it solved.
Mike Olaith, Kansas, you're next.
Great to have you here on the EIB Network.
Hello, sir.
Hey, Rush, Mega Dittos.
It's great to talk to you.
This is a big one to take off my bucket list.
Thank you very much, sir.
Well, you're welcome.
Hey, the reason I called was I'm kind of curious, all this pushing of blame the movie that they've been doing for the last week or two now.
Do you think maybe it could just be a way to kind of preempt or camp down all the trouble that may come up when the Kill Osama movie comes out?
I mean, it kind of does two things.
It tells the people in the Middle East to quit and get so worked up about a movie.
And then it also kind of makes it so that when we see them burning pictures of Obama and holding pictures of Osama, we'll go, oh, there they go.
They still love Obama, but they're just mad about another movie.
When does that movie come out?
I heard it was coming out in October, but then again, I also heard that it might be delayed.
But this just makes no sense the way Obama still today is pushing something that people stopped believing a week ago.
They never did believe it.
Well, nobody ever saw the darn thing.
Yeah.
But, you know, Obama, he said something about this today in his UN address.
The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam.
The future must not belong.
Now, the drive-bys are not reporting that.
What do you make of that?
The future, Mike, what do you mean?
The future must not belong to those who would slander the prophet of Islam.
Well, I think he's taking the focus off the fact that, you know, the movie he's complaining about now is against the prophet of Islam, and the movie that he's got coming out is against Osama bin Laden.
But I think they're still nervous that the reactions may very well still be the same.
And so I think they're just trying to preempt some of the stuff that may come up from that.
You know, you're the Fifth or sixth person that has talked about this movie that's coming up in the context of the video that Obama cites all the time.
And this movie, believe me, was originally intended to come out in time for this election.
It was supposed to be a campaign aid about Obama's greatness in getting Osama.
It's Catherine Bigelow who did the Hurt Locker.
And this movie was supposed to come out, and then they delayed it for a while.
For some reason, October 16th is the date.
But I think it's the movie, I think it's been pushed back to December now.
Oh, I didn't know it did.
I think it has.
I'm kind of foggy on this, but I remember that it was originally supposed to be released when they announced the movie before the even shooting began.
They haven't cast it yet.
They said it was going to be for Campaign 2020 coming in October of 2012.
And I think I read that they've moved it out of the campaign now and into December because it was just too obvious.
And they made this decision, I think, before the Middle East uprising of last week.
But I'm going to have to double-check that.
But your point, nevertheless, remains valid.
If a Middle East video can cause this kind of trouble, what the hell is this movie?
And it was really what caused this trouble was Obama himself at his convention.
Because not Benghazi, but Egypt.
You go to Egypt, and I need to keep reminding you that the protesters there outside our embassy kept shouting something like, We're all Osama's Obama, because he had just gotten through bragging 21 times that he'd killed Bin Laden at the Democrat convention.
Obama didn't do it all 21 times.
Biden threw it in there, but it was mentioned 21 times.
And that, to me, if you're looking for a reason why these people might go berserk, be that over a video that they haven't seen.
Anyway, well, we, we, we, uh, we can't was it, we, uh, the future must not belong to those who would slander the prophet of Islam.
When did it ever?
What you hear a statement like that, and you think, okay, the future used to belong to people who slandered the prophet.
Who, when was that ever the case?
It's another straw man, but you know, the media is not reporting it.
That needs to be said, played side by side with Madonna's endorsement.
Here, Madonna, the Verizon Center in Washington last night urged her fans, she ordered them actually, using the F-bomb and the GD bomb and an excrement bomb.
She's urging her fans to go vote for Obama.
She called him black Muslim.
They got a black Muslim in the White House who's for gay marriage, and the place went nuts.
So we play that side by side with Obama saying, the future should not belong to those who would slander the prophet of Islam.
And I wonder what the.
He did.
He did.
And he threw Christianity too.
Yeah, it was, you know, it was a nice warm, wet blanket speech, the campaign speech.
He did do that.
But anyway, the movie is called the Obama Kills Osama movie.
Called Dark Or Zero Dark and it's scheduled for release December the 19th.
So they moved it back, but the trailer is out.
You can watch the trailer.
Good Christmas movie.
Yeah Dark Zero Osama, leveled by Obama just in time for Christmas 2012.
Now there's something else that Obama said in his UN address that, ladies and gentlemen, is is is lifted.
Well, I don't say I'm not gonna say it's lifted, but I just want you to listen to this.
He said, the future look at me, listen to this the future must not belong to those corrupt few who steal a country's resources.
Who have you heard say that Obama views the U.S.
That way?
Me, El Rushbo, Maha Rushi.
And he said it.
The future must not belong to those corrupt few who steal a country's resources.
It must be won by the students and the entrepreneurs, workers and business owners who seek a broader prosperity for all people.
I'm here to tell you, while some people might interpret that as a pro-business comment, that's an Anti-U.S.
Comment, because he believes do not doubt me on this he'll never admit it.
This is as close he's ever going to get.
He believes this country is great and is prosperous because we have stolen the resources of other nations and that's how we became a superpower and that's why we need to be cut down to size and that's why we need to learn how the rest of the world lives and all is this claptrap of students and entrepreneurs, workers and business owners that's just more cliché who seek a broader prosperity for all people.
He thinks it's government that does that and delivers that Mitt.
Romney, not the face of Mormonism, says Harry Reed.
Read says he agrees with a fellow Mormon who wrote recently that Romney has sullied the Lds faith and that the GOP presidential candidates, not the face of Mormonism.
What's bugging, Harry Reed?
You know these guys are not acting like people who think their election's in the bag.
They're acting panicked, if you ask me.
We had a great um call today from Stuttgart Germany, a military member who wanted to praise our tea customer service and he said that blueberry was his favorite.
And it reminds me we have a?
Uh, a new patriot of the month.
We do this at the 2F BY TEA webpage, 2ifbit.com.
We got a new um patriot of the month that's showcased on the HALL OF Patriots page.
You just go to 2fbit.com and find the HALL OF Patriots page.
Uh sisters, Elizabeth and Michella, or Michaela, i'm not sure how it's pronounced, but They are our Patriots of the Month.
Folks, we have to take a toothbytea.com, the Hall of Patriots page.
We're doing a lot of fun things there.
Of course, we got the video project going on.
People go out there and give the tea to the liberals and watch them go nuts liking it.
They don't know whose tea it is.
And then you show them the label of bottle and watch their faces fall open.
Say, you've been a limbawed.
So we got a lot of fun things going on there.
And we've had a fun day today.
And folks, we needed a fun day today.
We needed a fun day.
I needed a fun day.
It was a fun day.
And we still made it matter.
That's what we do here.
We combine all these different elements into one hard-hitting presentation found nowhere else in major media.
Be right back.
Don't go away.
Okay, folks, another exciting excursion into broadcast excellence is in the can.
Show prep for the rest of the media.
You have a wonderful day.
And we got another replacement ref game on Thursday night.
Can't wait.
We'll see you tomorrow.
