Time Text
Yeah, hang on here just a second.
Let me check something.
Uh yeah, I guess you're up to uh Yep, audio sound by 13.
Folks, it's great to have you here, Rush Limboy.
Having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have on the most listened to radio talk show all across.
The fruited plain, telephone number if you want to join us.
800-282-2882, the email address.
Lrushball at EIBNet.com.
This is an exclusive of the New York Post.
Which, by the way, I think it was the New York Post that had the exclusive on Dan Marino's Love Child and all that.
So maybe the New York Post could send somebody over to Benghazi to find out what happened there.
Since nobody can still find that answer.
You know, we get at the at that Super Bowl, we had uh children from Newtown on the field of pregame singing.
America the beautiful.
We still have any haven't heard from or seen any survivors of Benghazi.
Still haven't.
We still don't know what happened.
Nothing affected.
We don't know yet.
And now that Hillary's testified and been done with it and lurches now over there at Secretary of State, everybody thinks that nobody cares anymore.
And believe me, there are millions of people who are still outraged by that.
Who want answers.
Anyway, New York Post has an exclusive.
Plan B has become Plan A in the Doomburg administration's stealth war on teenage pregnancy.
Handouts of the morning after pill to sexually active students have skyrocketed under an unpublicized project in which health centers in public scruals offer girls a full menu of free birth control drugs and devices.
Last September, New York City revealed that it had started giving out Plan B and other birth control in the nurses' offices of 13 has growths.
At the time, officials said that 567 girls had gotten Plan B. But the birth control blitz was much bigger than the city acknowledged.
About 40 separate school-based health centers doled out 12,721 doses of plan B in the 2011-2012 scroll year.
That's up from 10,000 cases or doses in the 2010-2011 scroll year, and up 5,000 from the 2009.
So in 2009, 2010, 5,000 doses.
In 2010, 2011, 10,000 doses.7 12,700 doses, and climbing.
About 22,400 students sought reproductive care from January 2009 through last screw year, according to records.
Under state law, minors do not need their parents okay to get contraceptives.
Course they don't.
Of course they don't.
The uh the revelation stunned Mona Davids, the president of the New York City Parents Union, who has a 14-year-old who attends a Manhattan High School.
She says, I'm in shock.
What gives the mayor the right to decide without adequate notice to give our kids drugs that'll impact their bodies and their psyches?
He's purposely kept the public and the parents in the dark with his agenda.
Now, Mona Davids is black, says here, noted that most of the screw based uh based health centers are in poor neighborhoods.
This was a population control on blacks and Latinos without our knowledge, she said.
Oh man.
Oh man.
Well, I know that's all Plan Perity, but but you've you you don't have liberals saying that about planning.
Now you have I don't know the woman's a liberal, but she's uh African American, the odds are 93% she votes Democrat, so uh to characterize this as population control on blacks and Latinos, and Mayor Doomberg is a Republican, right?
By ver Well, by virtue of party ID, he's a Republican.
He's a Republican in name only, but by name, he's a Republican.
And what's he doing?
Population control, blacks and Latinos.
Now there's another way of looking at this.
And the other way of looking at this is that Mayor Doomberg and everybody else involved who are just throwing their hands up to the hell with it.
We can't handle the cost of all these teen pregnancies.
So here.
Take the morning after pill.
They're throwing up their hands.
Look, we know you're a bunch of minks, you kids.
We know you're gonna have sex.
We know we can't stop it.
We know you're just going to town out there.
We don't want to deal with all your kids.
We know you don't want to deal with it.
You're not right.
So here.
It's just more the same.
You if if you have a program, I guarantee you, with 22,000 students getting dosages of this stuff, the word is spread.
They all know.
All you gotta do is go to nurse's office if you get pregnant.
So there's no disincentive to teen pregnancy because of this program.
There's no disincentive to the activity that results in pregnancy.
That would be wanton, casual sex.
There's no disincentive whatsoever.
This has always been my problem with all these supposed enlightened programs.
This got started back in the 90s with the old adage, and I had parents actually call me and agree with programs like that.
Well, Rush, you know, kids are gonna have sex.
No, we can't stop that.
I mean, that's that's nature.
They're just gonna do it.
I had parents call me who said that they with permission let their daughter sleep with their boyfriend in the spare bedroom so that they wouldn't be doing it in the car because the bedroom's cleaner than the car.
Honest to God, I had parents call here saying that.
There was no effort to stop them.
There was no effort to teach them that what they were doing could not possibly have anything good come of it.
And even if parents were doing that, here you've got government, in this case mayor, but other institutions undermining whatever parents might be teaching at home.
I'm in shock.
What gives the mayor the right to decide without adequate notice to give our children drugs that'll impact their bodies and their psyches?
He's purposely kept the public and parents in the dark about his agenda.
This is Mona David's.
Ms. Davids, if I if I may, I don't know why you're in shock.
What gives the mayor the right to decide?
Did you say anything when he said you can't have trans fat?
Did you say anything when he said you can't drink in larger than 16 ounces?
Did you say anything when he said you can't smoke in a public park?
Did you say anything when this mayor had his restrictive authoritarian behaviors unilaterally implemented?
This is what happens.
These big-time authoritarian status types issue these decrees.
And if it's smoking, most people hate smokers.
Yeah, yeah, you can't smoke, good.
The liberty and freedom aspect never registers.
Then the trans fat business.
And the people that hate the obese and the food Nazis, yeah, yeah, you shouldn't be eating that anyway, fine.
And then the 16 ounce, the 32-ounce sodas ban, well, yeah, yeah, we people don't need to drink that and not sugar and so.
And then finally, the mayor does something that these people care about, and all hell breaks loose.
I'm in shock.
Ms. Davids, if I may be so bold and I don't mean to be threatened.
I'm not trying to be threatened.
I just don't understand why you're in shock.
This mayor is doing nothing out of character.
Behaving in unilateral fashion like this?
Why are you in shock?
How long has it been the law of the land that parents have no right to know what their daughters are doing when it comes to reproductive decisions?
This has been the law of the land since the 90s at least.
Parents have no say so.
Planned parenthood rules a roost.
Right.
A parent may not, cannot, must not be informed what their daughter decides to do.
So what are you shocked at?
This is just the next phase.
The next step.
But now to look at this as population control, I wonder how Mayor Doomberg's gonna react to that.
I mean, that's pure that that that is an allegation of blatant racism undisguised, undiluted.
You don't think he cares?
Well, you start making racist allegations against a liberal, they care.
That stuff bothers them.
Sexist stuff, that they can handle that.
Guns, they can handle that.
The school-based health centers contract all of these dosages with local hospitals.
The city, New York City spent 2.7 million dollars on these health centers that give away plan A and plan B drugs this fiscal year.
Students without health insurance get the birth control free of charge.
A city founded nonprofit prescription service reimbursed the centers, almost $400,000 for contraceptives last year.
Now the age of consent in New York City is 17.
If they are giving these pills to any girls younger than that, would they not be aiding in the commission of criminal activity?
So in New York City, salt is illegal, trans fat is illegal, thirty-two ounces of a Coca-Cola is illegal, but all the plan A and Plan B you want, fine, bought and paid for by the taxpayers.
Now Mona Davids could well be, I don't I don't she she could well be a conservative.
I'm she's a big advocate for charter schools and other conservative ideas, and if she's upset about this, she probably is a conservative.
I just ran the numbers.
It says here she's African American, 93% African American vote Democrat, or liberal in this case, Doomberg would be a liberal, but she could very well be a conservative, but even whether she's conservative or liberal.
And I understand her saying she's in shock.
She probably really isn't, it's just saying it.
What gives the mayor the right to decide without adequate notice to give our kids drugs that'll imp what gives them the right to tell you a restaurant that they can't serve trans fat or use trans?
What gives him the right to do 90% of what he wants to do?
Well, what gives him the right at the end of the day is when nobody stands up to oppose it seriously, he gets away with it.
It's it's the same thing with uh Obama or any other authoritarian or statist.
But the the root of this here, the problem here is if you want to look at it as population control like Margaret Sanger and Planned Parenthood, I can understand that.
But in addition to that, what you have here are basically a bunch of enlightened leftists throwing up their hands on human behaviors.
We can't stop it.
And so they are making that behavior possible.
And there is nothing good that can come from teen pregnancy.
There is nothing, and there they are effectively with this policy encouraging the behavior.
And thinking, thinking that they're doing good work here by providing all of these uh contraceptives.
Anyway, the downward spiral just continues.
If the kids, if if if they can't count on people being smarter than they are, they don't have a chance.
We'll be back.
Don't go away.
So as I understand this now, President Obama says that even kids in college and even some of those playing pro football are too young to decide whether they should play.
America's youth have been misled.
They do not know the dangers.
They have been lied to about the dangers, the risks of concussion and other injuries playing this brutal barbaric game.
And so something needs to be done at the federal level to make the game safer and to tell these young kids that it's dangerous.
But schoolgirls are old enough to decide when to have sex, when not to have sex, and when to get birth control pills and morning after pills.
Young girls, we can't say a thing.
We can't warn their parents, we can't tell their parents, we can't even engage in serious education because it's discriminatory.
Obama knows that.
These are these young girls, they're okay, they understand, and if they don't, morning after pills fight, these young guys don't know enough.
Gotta police it.
I'm just telling you what I have heard.
The uh Reverend Jackson in Chicago.
The uh Reverend O'Jackson and other relatives of victims of fatal shootings in Chicago.
Do you know the the the lawlessness in Chicago, the gun violence in Chicago is now greater than when Al Capone's gang ran the town.
Did you know that, Rachel?
And you want to know something else?
There was no gun control when Al Capone was running around running.
Back during the glory days of Chicago.
No gun control.
Now they've got some of the strictest gun control laws in the country, and they got gun violence occurring in record levels.
And so the uh Reverend Jacks and relatives want federal action.
They have called on noted expert, Barack Obama, to do something.
Here is the Reverend Jackson from Saturday Chicago.
We look at death coming down the street and can't stop it.
We need federal intervention.
It must be seen as a threat to national security.
It's not just local.
The president shows up and shows ultimate national seriousness.
Uh let me translate in case uh the quality of our recording equipment was not up to speed there.
A Reverend Jack said, We uh we look at death coming down the street and we can't stop it.
We need federal intervention.
It must be seen as a threat to national security.
It's not just local.
When the president shows up, shows ultimate national seriousness.
And so the Reverend Jackson calling on uh violence and gun control expert Barack Obama to come back home and fix it.
I don't know.
That's Obama's don't ask me.
I'm not the expert in fixing this.
Obama is.
He's supposed to go there and get people to stop killing each other.
Supposed to get go there and it's it's it's an issue of national.
Look.
No, no, no, no, no.
Not black troops.
He's supposed to go there just him going there and being serious about it is all it's it he just i it it if he would show up, it would it would mean ultimate national seriousness.
That alone would convince people uh to stop killing each other Chicago.
That's what Jesse Jackson just Obama just needs to show up, just needs to come home.
That would do it.
That would show national seriousness.
That would show Jackson not talking about National Guard snurdly.
Federal inter federal intervention is the expert in all this.
Obama coming home and fixing it.
Maybe he's calling for federal police.
If he is, it just means he's calling for Obama.
El Rushbow and the delicious 2 p.m. cigar behind the golden EIB microphone.
Seriously.
Um what what the Reverend Jackson truly wants.
He wants federal police.
He wants the Department of Homeland Security to help patrol the streets of Chicago.
That's if you read the article, that's what he wants Obama.
Now he he does want Obama to show up.
Obama, look what Obama's done.
He's he's fixed the deficit, he fixed health care.
Uh it I mean, d he went to the Middle East.
That's in Arab Spring, that's safe.
A speech in Cairo.
Um fixed Iraq, uh fixed Afghanistan, fixed waterboarding, Club Getmo captured bin Laden.
Jesse Jackson simply, would you come home?
Would you do something for a come home here?
And and show some national seriousness on this.
Uh and he wants the Department of Homeland Security to help patrol the street Chicago.
And I just want to remind you.
Remember how some people on our side were laughed at, mocked, made fun of as conspiracy kooks for worrying that Homeland Security could end up being our national police.
And I think Reverend Jackson wants Obama to come on and bring his gun.
What?
If I call for national police.
Well, come on.
Snerdley's asking what would happen if I called for National Police in minority neighborhoods.
Come on, of course, what would but nobody's gonna say that but the Reverend Jackson.
Nobody's gonna say it for Obama.
I just think if Obama shows up, take his gun.
You saw the sh you saw the the picture of Obama's skeet shooting at uh Camp David.
You know, I haven't I haven't wanted to bring that up.
The people that are experts in skeet shooting are saying that they're a little dubious of the legitimacy of the picture because of I gotta say the smoke coming out of the rifle doesn't the angle of the rifle.
It doesn't look like there's any kickback.
Uh not aiming it high enough, I know.
But Obama could be so good that he's waiting for it to hit the ground before he right, very moment before it hits the ground.
It could be that good.
Most people, you know, try to shoot the sporting clay of the site at its apex, the apogee.
But Obama could be so good he could be waiting at Colin Kaepernick territory down there, like six feet off the ground that blow the thing up.
He could be that good.
Anyway, um that's that's what the Reverend Jackson wants.
Here is Ron in Colorado Springs.
Great to have you on the program, sir.
Hello.
Hello, Russ.
Thank you for taking my call.
It's an honor to talk to you.
Thank you.
Thanks very much.
I'm an active duty military member and a huge fan, longtime listener.
And my main comment today is just to say a big thank you for your support of our military over the years.
It it's great to have an advocate like you.
And I just really just wanted to say how much we really appreciate you.
Well, I let me tell you something.
It's it's I I appreciate that, but it's back at you times ten because it was just last week that we went to a a dinner that was in honor of the Navy SEALs and and in particular Navy SEAL Museum, which is up in Fort Pierce, Florida.
But oh, I can fly up there in ten minutes.
And I just love these things.
I the the the discipline, the honor, the devotion To tradition.
The regimentation, and I don't I don't mean that in a in a restrictive way, but uh people who are the best at what they do, who who have a great love and respect for the country and remain the solid rocks that they are regardless of the various stages our culture is in and out of.
It just is inspiring every time I'm around these people.
In uniform or not.
This was uh this was an in-uniform event.
Uh and yeah, I I I just as I get older, I become more and more in awe of the people who volunteer for the armed services and the situations they find themselves in that 99 and a half percent of our population wouldn't do.
Don't do.
They don't volunteer for it.
And as I get older, I I do.
I have a greater awe and respect for what they do and why they do it.
So each chance that you know I get to be around that, I uh well, most of the time I avail myself of the opportunity.
So I really appreciate your your call.
But as I say, back at you times ten.
This is Anne in Peru, Indiana.
You're next on the EIB network.
Hi.
Hi, Rush.
Thanks for taking my call too.
But I'd like to tell you, your guy just called the the call screener, he just called me sweetheart.
I miss that.
You know, we ladies used to be able to be called sweetheart and honey and all sorts of things, and it never really meant anything except for here you go, you you know, you go first.
So anyway, I miss that.
I'm 43.
No, I'm not at all.
No, don't get started because we'll get off on a tangent.
You're not suing us?
No.
You got nothing left after you lost suit.
So no.
Um no, I miss that.
You know, I'm a I I am of the weaker sex and I and I enjoy that sort of thing.
I I it's it's it's nice.
Um Well, let me just tell you it's not gonna take away from your time here, so don't worry about I got fired.
I got fired on the radio.
Well, I got fired for using the word therefore too much.
But what I really got fired, I got fired for using the word black.
Well, that's different.
When I was talking about my own boyfriend.
That's so that's different.
I mean, who gets fired for using the word therefore too much?
But actually, I got in trouble.
What started the trouble was that I was co-hosting an afternoon news show with a feminist, and I kept referring I did not kept, I mean I'd occasionally referred to her as dear.
And uh it was just I mean, i i it uh my my whole the formative years of my life when I learned what feminism taught me, don't compliment a woman's appearance, do not open a door for do not do that stuff because it offends them.
That's no when I came of age, that's that's that's uh that's what guys my age were faced with.
Yeah, I know.
I know.
Well, we're we're backwards, you know.
My mom used to say, make sure rest in peace.
Bass awkward.
It's just bass act.
Yeah.
Okay.
Okay, sweetheart, what you call that.
Okay, thank you.
I did want to say if you don't if you don't mind, I would like to say thank you to Mark Stein and his staff.
Um when you were on MLK Day, I got through.
It didn't take as much time to get to your chief today.
But anyway, I got through and he invited my son and myself up to Hillsdale um to listen to a lecture, and uh they called a few times, and I I was just impressed.
I was you know, I was impressed with the the amount that went into making sure that my son and I were able to get there.
I thought that was another thing that was.
Very cool.
Well, but my my comment was this.
Um I live in a small town.
There were two videos here.
This goes back to your first thing that you started off with about the McKenzie Institute, you know, little thing about adult porn and all that crap.
Um live in a small town.
There were two video stores here.
One is Blockbuster, which I'm sure you've heard of, and another one is family video.
I don't know if that is just a statewide thing.
Now wait a second.
People just tuning in, you you're saying the porno thing and video, they may not know what you're talking about.
What there's a story done in Indiana Univers a research survey, folks, done at Indi that she's commenting on it re at Indiana University.
And it said, the survey said it, name the professor who did it, that young men who are exposed to pornography become more accepting of gay male sex and then gay marriage.
And this guy said the link to uh uh young men today supporting gay marriage and gay uh rights is the fact is pornography.
That's that's what his research has has indicated that pornography is is the more they watch it, the more open they are.
He didn't say that gay sex is porn.
I don't want anybody misunderstanding.
That's not what he says.
He's just saying that young men who watch porn end up changing their minds on gay sex and gay marriage.
That's what that's now you're calling to talk about that.
Okay.
I well I am I'm actually I'm actually calling to talk about something I think is just really strange and and is just kind of a sign of the times.
I mean, we are con very conservative state, Indiana, which I probably never will move for that reason.
I I've always thought that we were, you know, pretty conservative, but then you have to wonder with some of the things that go on.
So anyway, one store is is Blockbuster, which I'm sure you're familiar, the other store with family video.
Blockbuster recently went out of business because they just could not compete with family video.
Now here's my theory.
It's because family video sells porn.
And if you rent an adult movie, not meaning just porn, you can get a kid's movie for free.
But you know, you're standing in family video with your kid, and you think you're the only folks in there Wait a second.
Isn't that crazy?
Family video, if you rent porn, they'll give you a kid's movie for free.
Well, if you rent yeah, sure.
If you rent a movie and it in an adult movie, it doesn't have to be just porn.
Now don't let me m misrepresent family video and make it food because I got the point is they throw in the kids' movie free.
Yeah, isn't that sweet?
Yeah, it is.
But I want to correct you on something.
Yeah.
Blockbuster did not go out of business because of the town.
No, no, no, in our town.
I'm sorry, go ahead.
They couldn't compete, but you go ahead.
Well, but it's not just that.
It's it's they they're Blockbuster is losing out to online Netflix.
I mean, nobody's buying nobody's renting DVD, not very but family video throughout any thriving.
They are renting porn DVDs.
Right, right.
And the kid video is free.
Let me tell you something else about porn.
You you may think they need to offer kid movies free to sell it.
They don't.
No, they don't.
Do you know what determined who won Blu-ray versus HD DVD?
Do you know what do you know what determined who which format won?
Blue ray versus HD DVD.
No, don't know.
Go ahead, Tommy.
When the porn industry made up their mind.
Oh, wow.
Well, and that that the porn industry gave us uh VHS instead of Betamax.
Yeah, right.
When they chose VHS, it was over for Sony.
Yeah.
My point is they're big.
Porn porn's everywhere, it's big.
It's not I mean, it may be behind the curtain, but a lot of people are behind the curtain.
Yeah.
Well, that's the that's a bin Laden was watching porn too, but don't tell anybody that.
Hey, you know what?
I got nothing to say about Obama.
You read my email, okay.
I sent you one.
I love you, Russia.
Take good care.
Okay.
Thanks for the I I don't know what she's talking to me uh and and whenever, but it's my hearing.
Anyway, I appreciate I appreciate the call, Anne.
Thanks much.
I Ben I she said it was Bin Laden watch.
I didn't say Obama.
She res she said Obama.
Oh, okay.
I didn't say Obama.
Bin Laden watch was watching porn.
And I said, don't tell anybody.
I don't know, no.
I wouldn't, I wouldn't know the titles.
Do bin Laden be more open to gay marriage because of his what according to the survey result scholarly research at Indiana U, he would be, but then you'd have to measure that against um I don't know if he got a free kids movie.
I I folks remember when it comes to gay marriage, I I just I have I have to um for the longest time President Obama was publicly opposed to gay marriage, and last summer, a few short months before the Democrat National Convention, he changed his mind on it.
Said he had evolved.
Well, now we have the scholarly research from the University of Indiana, Indiana University, which claims there is a correlation between watching porn and becoming more accepting of gay marriage.
I don't know if that's relevant for the president.
I'm just mentioning it though.
He's out in Minneapolis uh talking about overhauling our gun laws.
Only he knows how to do this.
Only President Obama's the expert on that.
And healthcare and all the rest of it.
That's what he's uh I mean, we get whipsawed every day.
Yesterday's kids can't play in the NFL.
Now we're back to guns.
Yesterday it was something else.
Tomorrow it's gonna be who knows what.
Remind me tomorrow, I got some emails uh people wanting to know my take on Carl Rove and his pack uh taking aim at the at the tea party.
And I wasn't in the mood to get into that today, but fear not, folks.
Uh we will in due course.
I just wanted you to know that I was aware of it, and we'll get to it at some point.
In the meantime, we'll be back in 21 hours.
