Somebody asking me if I remember Obama saying in 2008.
He promised to eliminate North Korea's nuclear.
Of course I remember.
I remember Obama promising to create all kinds of jobs.
I remember Obama promising to end racial strife, all of these things.
But the nukes in North Korea, I I think Obama is content to sit by and let the North Koreans have nuclear weapons.
And the same thing with the Iranians.
How can you conclude otherwise, folks?
How could you conclude?
No, I got an email during the break here.
Do you do you remember Obama saying that the eliminate North Korean nukes and oh, yeah, yeah.
I I remember all kinds of promises Obama made.
And this is my point early in the program.
We're dealing with genuine intellectual depravity here.
This this kind of stuff cannot stand on its own.
Of course, it needs to be propped up, and it is being by a corrupt media.
But, you know, Pelosi saying we don't have a spending problem, we got a budget deficit problem.
Stanny Hoyer saying we don't have a spending problem, we got a pay for it problem.
Folks, while this it's hilarious, and we laugh at them, you understand, they mean it.
They're so corrupt that they are trying to come up with it's really an insult to everybody's intelligence, except the low information voters who buy into these kinds of explanations.
But all of these words, all of these promises, uh all of the all the failure, it it it's it's it's being exposed.
This is this is one of the uh I guess the points I'm trying to make or did in the first hour is that this isn't real.
This and and this kind of fakery will eventually be exposed for what it is.
And I'm just telling you, this is why I'm optimistic and why I have uh uh considerable amount of hope that we're gonna rebound from this.
And it's and I'm not, again, I don't want to be repetitive, but I'm not saying what's going on is not serious, not devastating.
It is, and the longer it takes, the the harder the roadback is gonna be.
But I don't think we've lost countries the point.
That's really what I'm saying.
If I if I thought it was the opposite, I would I would say so.
But this stuff is so perverse, and it is so unreal.
It's it really is fake.
You you've got an artificial, a fake presidency, a fake regime.
It's it's built on fake promises, fake results.
They fixed a debt problem.
That's fake.
They created all these millions of jobs, that's fake.
They're faking everything here.
Nothing is real.
And at some point, that that kind of fakery ends up being exposed.
And uh implodes on it.
So anyway, great to have you back.
El Rushbow here at the EIB network and the Limbaugh Institute.
Wait, here.
From from the Washington Times, White House, all questions answered on Benghazi attack.
See?
Hey, nothing left to learn here, and nothing left to be said.
It's it's not.
We've answered every question.
Jay Carney.
White House Press Secretary blasted Senate Republicans for threatening to block Chuck Hegel and John Brennan.
Nominated ahead to CIA.
We've answered these questions about Benghazi, Carney said.
The president found out about the attack in a meeting with the Secretary of Defense, the chairman of Chief Joints, and we dealt with it.
It's over.
We've answered all the questions.
It was a video.
Well, so we don't have a spending problem, we have a pay-for-it problem.
We don't have a spending problem, we've got a budget deficit problem.
We've cut 2.6 trillion dollars in spending, and we're gonna cut another 1.4 million for a total of $4 trillion in spending cuts, and we've answered every question on Benghazi.
And we created six million new jobs since 2000 uh since 2009.
It's all fake.
And it's gonna be exposed.
The fakery is being oh, yeah, I'm gonna make sure the North Koreans never get a nuclear weapon as they continue to light them up and test them.
Then you got these Doomkoffs in the media that prop this stuff up, but eventually even that, which is built on Balsa wood, is uh is going to collapse.
Yeah, we we we answered all the questions on Minghazi.
Uh Cybercast News Service is reporting that according to AshleyMadison.com.
Do you know what AshleyMadison.com is.
It is a dating site for married people.
It's exactly what it is.
It's a dating site for married people.
If you're married, but you want to find somebody to date, have an affair with, they will they will put you together with somebody.
And so they are in a position to know who is behaving as such.
And according to AshleyMadison.com, which is a website that bills itself as the world's leading married dating service for discreet encounters, claims that Washington, D.C. is at the top of the list of America's least faithful cities.
That means that DC ranked first in extramarital affairs.
And this website, AshleyMadison.com, says that.
I guess Washington had 34,000, 157 signups on their website.
More signups per capita in 2012.
So 34,000 people in Washington signed up at AshleyMadison.com, which is a dating site for the married.
And the nation's capital also has the highest percentage of married men over the age of 50 seeking affairs.
I mean, that's what that website is.
If you're married and you want to have an affair, you sign up.
And I guess you find out who's available.
They put you snerdily he's there.
Snerdley's already logged.
Normally takes Nerdley two hours to research a simple question for me.
He's already at the AshleyMadison.com website.
Oh, he said he had to see it to believe it, even though I'm the one telling you.
Still had to see it.
It's a website for the married who want to play around.
And based on the number what is the slogan?
Life is short, have an affair is the slogan at AshleyMadison.com.
And uh that again, if you're married and you want to have an affair, that's the website you go to pair up.
And there are more people in Washington, it's a nationwide website.
More people in Washington sign up there than any other city.
It's fascinating.
Really is fascinating.
Now let's see.
You know, in addition, we had we had Reginald from uh was he from Atlanta.
Reginald was another in um significant number of African Americans who've called here over the years, embarrassed that so many blacks vote Obama, vote for the Democrat Party.
And I pointed out that unemployment for both women and African Americans is higher today than it was when Obama took office in 2009.
It's federal government data, by the way.
It's not anybody analyzing it is actual federal government data.
In addition, McClatchy News has a story.
Many African Americans concerned about Obama's focus on immigrant rights.
You know, this is a this is a story that is underreported, and it's underreported for a reason, because race is the primary component in the media bias of the left, given that he's a liberal Democrat.
Given that add To it that he is black, and that's the primary component of their bias.
Don't doubt me on this.
And what this story is is about a number of African American groups who are publicly expressing concern about Obama's focus on amnesty.
Now, why do you think that is?
Well, no, it's it's well, partially because they're unemployed, but it's it's all about competition to be the number one beneficiary of government benefits.
It's about being the top dog minority.
And what these African American groups are upset about is Obama's gonna go out and focus on the illegals by definition, they're gonna not have jobs, they're gonna need benefits, and they're getting jealous.
Obama's gonna be more focused on the needs of uh Hispanics and Latinos than he is blacks.
They're getting nervous, they're concerned about his focus on immigrant rights.
They might be forgotten or not forgotten, but they they might be relegated to secondary status if you will.
And that's happened before, too.
That that is actually not a news story.
Now, yesterday had a story I was intending to get to, didn't get to, said yesterday I was going to get to it today.
Let me briefly tell you what it is.
As you know, those of you who listen regularly are well aware of the fact that I have called attention to what I think is a major, major problem among young people, and that's this endless quest for fame that young people have.
And it's not just young people, actually, but they are probably the largest group seeking fame.
They watch TMZ, MTV, they want it.
They want all this.
They that they go on these social websites and they vomit everything about themselves they can.
They want everybody to know everything about them.
They want TV cameras recording everything they do.
They want people to be aware of who they are and what they're doing.
They associate fame with the way Hollywood and other entertainment types are covered.
The TMZs and the entertainment tonights, they're never hard on this.
They love these celebrities.
They make them out to be the greatest things in sliced bread because they want access to them.
And all these celebrity reporters are groupies anyway.
So they take these media celebrity jobs as an opportunity to get close to these people, hoping that they might become friends of these people and end up in their orbit and not just distant journalists covering them.
So it's sort of an incestuous cycle.
But the viewer watching all of this gets a distorted idea of what's going on and thinking, wow, look at fame.
Like everybody loves Leonardo DiCaprio.
Everybody loves Robert De Niro.
I want to be loved like that.
I want to be written about like that.
I want to be spoken of like that.
I want to be in the movies, I want to go to the fashion shows like that, I want to be on Fashion Row.
I want to attend all the openings.
I want to go to the red carpet.
I want to be the focus.
That's what it leads to.
And as, and it's I'm telling you, it is unhealthy as it can be.
And these people, particularly these young people, they're giving up every aspect of their anonymity and privacy in this quest because they associate fame with love.
They associate fame with adoration.
They don't take note when somebody in the entertainment business is ripped to shreds.
No, they participate.
They have fun in the exposure of whoever in the entertainment world is being skewered, but they never think it's going to happen to them.
They focus on all the love and the Hero worship and so forth.
And I think it's what leads people away from things in life that will actually help them become something.
This endless quest for fame ends up being a life of emptiness.
I mean, the number of people who achieve stardom in the television and movie business as a percentage of the population is infinitesimally small.
And yet these young people are pursuing it with everything they've got because they think it'll give their life meaning.
And they everybody wants to be loved and adored, and they want to be the object of affection, and they want the wealth and they want to them all celebrities do is go to bars and nightclubs and movie openings and star in movies, and of course the movie is real.
They don't see the hard work that's involved in making the movie or the job of acting to the extent that it is.
They don't they just see the trappings and they want that.
And as such, they ignore anything that might actually be substantive or meaningful in their life.
Well, uh, this has been a concern of mine for many, many moons.
Little Indian lingo there.
So on February 4th, I happen to see a story in the Washington Post by Petula Devorok.
She might pronounce it Devorjak.
And the headline of the well, I know what the headline is, but it is a story that's focused on the pitfalls of seeking fame.
Quantitative analysis revealed that fame, the number one value, selected as the most important value for participants' future goals.
This is study done by psychology professors of the University of California at Los Angeles, UCLA.
We get freaked out by kids sexting, we're shocked when some hascral football players ordered prostitutes with their smartphones, and now some ambitious members of Generation Text have taken the sex technology nexus to a new low by producing and distributing teenage porn in Northern Virginia as they seek fame.
At a whole new level of degradation and compromised values that these people are engaging in all in the quest for fame.
It's a generation that's been born fed, diapered, and directed on camera.
While my generation's childhood memories come down to a shelf of photo albums or a cardboard box of faded Polaroids, Generation Y has been documented since birth with thousands upon thousands of digital images.
They are the real life Truman show.
Anyway, I just found it interesting.
The Washington Post with a story on the dangers and the pitfalls of so many youthful Americans obsessed with fame.
It's absolutely true.
Okay, back to the phones.
Oh, wait a minute.
Yeah, back to the phones.
Let's let's grab uh Honey in Glennsdale, Glendale, Arizona.
Hi, great to have you on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hello, Rush.
Diddles from a retired Navy nurse.
Well, thank you very much.
Great to have you here.
This is such an honor.
I just wanted to comment uh earlier, you said that Dr. Carson uh something about him quitting his practice and going to reach out to the low information voters or low information people.
I think he's been listening to you because that's exactly what you think that we need to do.
Get a hold of them, educate them, and then they will come up to understand what's really going on.
Well, that's very nice of you to say about me.
I frankly, Dr. Carson probably too busy to listen to me or anybody else in the media.
After all, he's a neurosurgeon at uh at Johns Hopkins.
But nevertheless, he's he's right on it.
He's not even ruling out, he's not specifically saying he's going to, but he's not ruling out speculation he could run for office.
Well, that's the first thing I thought of as like he needs to run for president.
And I was so moved by his speech.
I had my husband, my ninth grade daughter, my seventh grade son, sit down and listen to that speech because I was so moved by it.
What was it that moved you?
And I'm not a I'm no wrong answer, just curious.
Because it it's well, I don't want to taint what you say.
What was it that moved you by it?
Was that he was standing up and speaking the truth and not afraid to do it when Obama was sitting right there, and this is really getting down to the heart of how our country needs to change.
And we start by education.
I think that was his biggest thing.
And I think we can start like right now.
Like my kids go to a school that is um a charter school.
Most of their teachers graduated from Hillsdale College.
They teach by the Socratic method, they teach critical thinking, and there is no pop culture allowed in the school, and they just teach from the soul of America.
And I think that's I agree with you.
I'm optimistic about the future because my kids are learning what they need to learn to be just like Dr. Carson.
A lot of people are.
This is I think a lot of a lot of a lot more people are being educated the way you describe than is known.
Uh Dr. Carson, with Obama sitting there, said someone has to be courageous enough to stand up to the bullies.
And by bullies, he of course met Obama and everybody else, the Democrat Party, who are systematically destroying and tearing this country apart.
But it was so rational.
It was so simple.
That's why it was so powerful.
It wasn't complicated with hand-wringing and reaching out and trying to come marketing and stuff.
Dr. Benjamin Carson was on with Neil Cavuto last night, yesterday on the Fox News channel.
And Cavuto said, Many of your critics on the liberal side say that you were trying to show boat on an occasion, a prayer breakfast.
Number Democrat legislators who said as much.
What do you say?
No, uh what we need to do is we need to be able to discuss intelligent ways of solving the multitudinous problems that threaten to destroy our nation.
And there are a group of people who would like to silence everybody and have everybody go along to get along, but that's not going to be very helpful for us in the long run in terms of solving our problems.
And somebody has to be courageous enough to actually stand up to the bullies.
And why not him?
He's saying.
If not me, who?
Some somebody got to be courageous, stand up to the bullies.
You notice that all these people are trying to say that was very inappropriate.
You shouldn't say that at the prayer breakfast with the president.
So why not?
That's the time to say it.
If you happen to believe, like I do, and obviously Dr. Carson does, that our country's being destroyed right before our eyes, and you have a chance to talk to millions of people with the guy who's doing the destroying right next to you, why not do it?
This used to be called speaking truth to power.
This used to be called courage.
This used to be called speaking the truth.
Well, what are we supposed to do now?
Shrink up and shrivel away and not say a word because the dear leader is nearby.
And that's exactly what people on the left think we're supposed to do.
It's insolence to disagree.
It's insolence to speak up with him sitting there.
Who are you?
How dare you?
Here we have a neurosurgeon at Johns Hopkins, a man who's made medicine his life and somehow he's not permitted to talk about health care.
And a man who's done nothing but rabble rouse on the street corners of Chicago is qualified and is permitted.
A neurosurgeon, sorry, sir, you can't talk about health care.
It's disrespectful.
Barack Obama, who hasn't wouldn't know a band-aid from a rubber band, is somehow the expert in health care, and only Obama can fix it, and only Obama can do something about it, and anybody else who speaks up is being disagreeable, inappropriate.
Whatever happened to United States freedom of speech and so forth and so on.
This is nothing more than statist intimidation.
What they're trying here on Dr. Carson.
I mean, he's just a neurosurgeon.
He's just one of the most acclaimed neurosurgeons in the country.
What does he know?
What gives him the right to talk about health care?
Why should we listen to him when we have Barack Obama who doesn't know anything about it?
So Dr. Carson finds himself in the same place, the man destroying the country is, and he's not supposed to speak up about it.
Cavuto said, You're an accomplished, well respected, internationally renowned doctor.
You head one of the most prestigious departments in all of medicine, and one of the most prestigious scruels in all of medicine.
Why did you take it upon yourself to go beyond just medical policy and talk about tax policy?
I mean, what are you getting at, Doc?
Five physicians signed the Declaration of Independence and were involved in a framing of the Constitution and uh the Bill of Rights and several other things.
There's absolutely no reason at all that physicians, scientists shouldn't be involved in things that affect all of us.
We're people who've learned how to make decisions based on facts, empirical data, rather than on ideology.
And uh one of the geniuses, one of the real things that that made us a great nation is that we brought people from all backgrounds into the legislative process so that all of us would be able to place our interests there, and we've gone significantly away from that.
Now, Cavuto playing devil's advocate, don't, but but he said, okay, look, you're a doctor.
What the hell are you doing talking about tax policy?
Why not?
He's a citizen.
Why can't he?
This is like I've been told all my life you didn't serve in Vietnam, you don't get to talk about the defense budget.
I've been told this all my life.
And all it is is the left attempting to silence opposition to intimidate people into shutting up.
Because the left cannot handle opposition, particularly on ideas.
They know they lose.
And they're gonna find it very difficult to demonize Ben Carson, but they will try.
You watch.
He's now in the crosshairs, and the Obama campaign team is gonna get into gear if this guy keeps talking, and they're gonna try to find ways to smear him and ruin his life and do to him what they did to Romney.
That's all they can do.
They can't beat him in the arena of ideas.
Look, five physicians signed a declaration of independence, fifty-six people signed a declaration, five of them are doctors.
Uh, what did they know about independence, Neil?
But even the nature of the question is troubling.
Well, you're a doctor.
What are you what are you speaking out on tax policy for?
Well, you know, I'm just a guy on the radio, I talk about everything, so am I only allowed to talk about radio things here?
Is the implication of the question.
So next, Cavuto said, I want to focus on the reaction from the president as you were making your remarks.
Did you know or did you suspect what you were saying was going to uh jibe him a little bit?
There's no question that uh he has advocated basically a policy of tax the rich.
And I have advocated a policy that comes from the Bible, which is a very fair policy of proportional taxation.
If it was good enough for God, why wouldn't it be good enough for us?
The minute you deviate away from that, you begin to get into all kinds of biases.
And uh one could legitimately make the argument that the rich pay too many taxes.
The top one percent pays 37% of the taxes, the top five percent, 59% of the taxes, but they don't make that much of the income.
One could make that argument.
It depends on your philosophical disposition.
Which arguments you're going to make?
But you take those arguments away as soon as you go to a proportional tax.
I believe that's the reason God did it.
Whoa.
Whoa.
That's the reason God did it.
No, no, no, that's what do you mean?
Obama didn't do that.
What do you mean that's the way God did it?
And the left, you know, and they're appointed talkmeisters, the Beckles and the Scarborough.
Who the hell is this guy think he is?
Chris Matthews.
Who the hell does this guy think he is?
I guess these guys would all bow down in total acquiescence to Obama.
It's a king on his way to dictatorship.
And that's okay.
That's fine, and no problem with that.
King gets to set tax policy.
King gets to write whatever we're going to do on guns.
King gets to say when we've dealt with the debt.
The king gets to say we don't have a spending problem, we got a pay for it problem.
The king gets to say, we don't have a spending problem, we got a budget deficit problem.
The king gets to say, don't ask me anymore about Benghazi.
I've answered everything.
There isn't anything else.
It was the guy with the video.
And we go, okay.
Whatever King says is it.
Carson goes on to say that he's going to retire from surgery later this year and then try to combat the problem of low information voters.
I'm actually going to retire in June from surgery.
I will still teach, I will still be involved, but I'm going to retire from surgery.
So it does open up a lot of possibilities.
For me, I'm very focused on education and getting the populace back to where it used to be, like back in 1831, when Alexis de Tuckville came here and was so impressed.
Because an uneducated populace will fall for anything.
And if you go and you talk to most people, they mean well, but they don't have much of a breath of education, of knowledge, of understanding what the real issues are, and therefore they listen to pundits on television who tell them what they're supposed to think, and they keep repeating that, and pretty soon they say, oh, well, that must be true.
It's the definition of the low information voter.
That's Dr. Benjamin Carson from the Johns Hopkins Hospital, director of pediatric neurosurgery, which means he saves the children.
And we'll be back after this.
Here's another thing about Dr. Carson that we were talking about yesterday.
There are doers.
and And people who don't do, they just sit outside the arena and offer expertise, commentary, criticism, but they don't do diddly squat.
He's a doer.
He is in the arena doing.
He is practicing health care.
And because he is intimately involved in it, he knows better than most what to do to repair it because he knows what's wrong with it.
And he knows full well that Obama has no clue what he's talking about because Obama's not even talking about health care.
Obama is simply expanding in ideology.
Obama is simply coming up with a way to build and grow government, and he's using health care as his way.
And of course, journalists who also don't know anything, don't know how to deal with Benjamin Carson.
He doesn't fit the template.
They don't know what to do with a guy like this.
So they're gonna have to figure out a way to cancel him out.
Since they can't figure out a way to deal with him, he's certainly not on their side, so he's got to do...
But I think he's obviously prepared and equipped to deal whatever comes his way.
Now, I gotta take a brief time out, sadly, as we've come to the screeching halt portion of a daily excursion into broadcast excellence.
But don't go away.
We'll be back and wrap it up after this.
The End So Bob Beckle on the five yesterday talking about Dr. Benjamin Carson who operates on the babies, the brains of babies.
Dr. Benjamin Carson, who actually saves the lives of little babies.
Bob Beckle said he just wants his 15 minutes of fame make a million dollars when he leaves surgery.
He said that Beckle said that Ben Carson offers nothing but extreme right wing talking points.
Ben Carson's self-made man from Detroit.
The media didn't make him, they can't destroy him.
It's got an amazing story from Detroit, where he came from.
