Time Text
Well, look at that.
The mayor of San Diego finally gonna pack it in.
Mayor of San Diego is going to resign.
The city council has to approve the mediation deal.
You gotta give it to those Democrats.
Once they run it up to flagpole, they stay on there as long as they can.
Greetings and welcome back.
Rush Limbaugh, the EIB network and the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
Great to have you here, folks.
The uh telephone number, if you want to be on the program 800-282-288-2, the email address, El Rushbow at EIBNet.com.
Let's go to the race stack.
Let's just get to it.
Because all over the drive-by media today, you will see headlines that say something along the lines of Rush Limbaugh injects race into Oklahoma shooting.
I kid you not.
Folks, it is mind-numbing the way the denial these people in.
In the Zimmerman Martin case, you had Barack Obama himself injecting race into it.
There was no racial component.
The racial component had to be manufactured all because there was a black victim.
When the victim is black, it's gonna be racism no matter what, unless the perpetrator is black.
Then it's going to be ignored.
But if the purpose perpetrator, they had to even add the descriptive term white to Zimmerman's Hispanic in order to create a racial incident when there wasn't any.
There was no racial, this was not the whole Trevon Martin Zimmerman, there was no racial aspect to it, other than the one the left manufactured for the purposes of advancing its agenda.
Here you have two white perps, wannabees in the Crips of the Bloods or what have you, targeting a white guy, because they were bored.
Their getaway driver happened to be white, the sum of them a little bit of a mitigating factor, it is said.
The uh Reverend O'Jackson uh issued a statement yesterday and said frowned on the incident.
See, you have headlines out there, Rush Limbaugh injects race.
Well, one of the three teenagers charged in the thrill kill of an Australian college student in Oklahoma last week has previously posted racist tweets on his Twitter account.
You see, as far as the Democrats and the left are concerned, this thing yesterday in Oklahoma, whenever it was, it was about guns.
It's about violence, it's about guns, and we gotta get rid of the violence because the violence, we gotta get rid of the guns because guns cause violence.
Just ignoring what was right in front of their faces.
And I that this this continuing focus on guns, I'll tell you, it's rather obvious to me.
The Democrat Party's pandering to all minorities is literally destroying people in these minority groups.
The Democrat Party is just destroying lives.
And they're taking everybody with them.
Then you got this wacko professor at Northwestern that comes up with this long piece on how America was just an accident.
It's a coincidence, a quirk of economic fate.
The stars were aligned right.
What's really normal is now.
And all of this to excuse Obama, trying to convince us that the rest of the world is normal.
We were just a weird and brief exception.
We were not real.
There was no and has been no substance to what America was.
The real America is all this racism and sexism, poverty and discrimination and all this stuff that's happening now that the Democrats are needed to be in power of and control of so they can make it all fair, or whatever they do.
But uh, and it's all done.
The whole point of this is to make sure that Obama doesn't get blamed for this.
To make sure that Obama's policies, that liberalism doesn't get blamed.
Liberalism is what's failing here, not America.
Obama is what's failing, not America.
Democrat Party and their policies are what's failing here, not America.
They just happen to be taking America with it.
And it's a crying shame.
But we can't have that.
See, we can't have people believe that.
I mentioned yesterday, I mentioned a speech I gave Saturday night.
Liberals are particularly angry because they're living daily in the reality that everything they believe is bogus.
Every belief they have that's going to create this little utopia panacea, it doesn't work.
They live it, they see it every day.
They're miserable, they're unhappy, cannot, cannot stomach it.
And so that cannot be allowed to stand.
We've got to exempt Obama.
We have to exempt the Democrat Party.
We have to exempt liberalism.
They cannot be blamed.
They cannot be seen as responsible.
And as such, the story is America was an accident.
And what is going on now is what's always been real.
This is the real America.
This new normal is the real normal.
See that in itself is a crime against common sense, an assault on common sense.
Now you have these racial incidents in there, and it just further depresses and confuses people and perpetuates this fog of, I mean, people are perplexed.
Nothing's making sense.
This is not how this country is supposed to be.
It's not how things are supposed to happen.
This isn't right.
It's causing people to lose faith in the country, not the policies that have made it.
So now we have this incident, Colorado.
One of the three teens charged in this thrill kill has previously posted racist tweets on his Twitter account.
The Daily Caller reported that the tweets belong to James Francis Edwards, 15.
One tweet from his account reads, 90% of white people are nasty.
Hate them.
Another post read, I knocked out five woods.
Woods since Zimmerman Court.
Woods is a derogatory term for white people.
Not tiger.
This is a woods is a derogatory term for white people.
Police chief Dan Ford said that the victim, Chris Lane, 22, appeared to have been chosen at random, saying in a variety of media interviews since Friday's killing that one suspect told the officers that he and the other boys were just bored and they'd been following the guy around and they just killed him for the fun of it.
So, one of the perps claims to have knocked out five white people since the Zimmerman trial.
Very happy and proud about it.
Same guy claims that 90% of whites are nasty and he hates them.
But it is your host, your beloved daily radio raconteur Rush Limbaugh, who injected race into this story.
Why does the left protect racism?
They're doing so here in the killing of this Australian college student.
Why does the left promote division?
As in the creation of George Zimmerman as a white Hispanic.
Why does the left promote dependency?
50 million or more on food stamps.
This is their business plan.
This is how they stay in power.
So, and then let me give you another story.
You may not have heard about this one.
It's in USA Today.
Fort Collins, Colorado.
What happened in Fort Collins, Colorado?
Dan's bake sale.
Way, way back in the early 90s.
I wonder how many people in this audience remember what that was about.
Might be worth retelling.
You remember what it was about, Dawn?
There was, Bill Clinton had just been elected.
And a bunch of students, elementary students, were being told.
told by their teachers to do bake sales and send the proceeds to Clinton to help reduce the national debt.
So these little kids would go home and mommy, mommy, I need you bake a cake for me to bake sale with school.
So mom would make cakes and cookies or whatever for the little kids to take to the bake sale.
They'd sell the bake sale stuff and they send the money to Clinton.
And Clinton made a big deal out of keeping it.
Kids had sent $35.14, and he would keep the money and apply it to the national debt.
He'd go on TV.
Now this is absolutely wonderful.
This is great education.
This is a certainly a very worthwhile experience for these kids because they're learning, they're learning it.
It has to come from all of us.
We all have a ship in here and help.
I mean, it was obscene.
He kept the money.
And these little kids, these young skulls full of mush, actually thought they were doing something useful.
You know, I'm just, I'm going nuts back then at the pollution of these young minds.
Well, about that time, I got a call on the radio from a guy named Dan.
And I was already a little bit irritated at this whole bake sales thing.
And so Dan calls and he starts bragging about how he is able to get my newsletter without paying for it.
That he's got a friend who runs it through the copy machine, and he's telling me how much he loves the newsletter, and it's really great.
Now he feels great and have to buy it.
He said he couldn't afford it.
And I said, Yeah, he said that after, why don't you get a subscription?
He realized you're violating copyright and trademark and all kinds of you can't do what you're doing.
You're cheating me and everybody who works on that newsletter.
And he got all nervous.
And I said, Dan, why don't you do a bake sale?
If you can't afford it, do a bake sale.
Pitch a tent, bake some stuff, sell it, and send me the money, and then become a subscriber to the website.
And so this little guy did that.
But it became well, it ended up 70,000 people at a food fair in Fort Collins, Colorado.
A couple of senators showed up.
I went, obviously.
NBC News called a conservative Woodstock.
That was the 60 was the lowest.
And it was not one mess.
Everybody cleaned up their mess.
But it was right there at Fort Collins, Colorado.
I mean, restaurants from all over the country set up from New Orleans.
Uh and and uh people were buying billboards all on I-70, Colorado, urging people to go to Dan's bake sale.
And it I arrived in a chopper.
I arrived in a helicopter.
It was all that's right.
It was overcast and threatening thunder boomers.
And uh I took a helicopter up from wherever we landed in the airport, I forget where might have been suburban Denver Airport, whatever, choppered up there, and as soon as we landed, the sun came out, brilliant sun, almost cloudless sky, and I'm walking to the stage behind a horse.
I mean, I'm literally behind the horse's ass.
Right.
That's that because there was a cop on the horse.
That was the security.
And that horse ended up kicking Colorado Senator Hank Brown by accident.
I don't think the horse knew he was a senator.
And wasn't seriously hurt, but it uh it did require some some attention.
But everybody had a grand old time, great time.
But and this guy Dan shows up and he ran out of bake goods in the first five minutes.
He was totally unprepared.
And then this guy Dan, thinking it was all about him, tried to do these in a number of different towns in subsequent weekends.
Hi, I'm Dan, and I'm gonna do my bake sale here in uh Oshkosh or wherever it was.
That was the just the guy, despite all the remarkable thing about the all the assistance, all of the training, all of the exposure this guy got to capitalism, it just never took.
He ended up becoming a sponge.
He started out a sponge and he ended up a sponge.
I was Santa Claus at the beginning of this thing, and I was Santa Claus to the end of it.
Remember that?
No matter what we did.
I mean, it got so bad he was going and buying things from other people's booths to come back and sell again at his bake sale booth because he I think he baked something like three dozen cookies, knowing 70,000 people were gonna show up.
Thirty-six cookies the guy had.
And of course he being interviewed by La TV.
This is Dan of Dan's bake sale.
We were content to let it happen.
Anyway, that that happened at Fort Collins, Colorado.
Okay, so Parks flew in Fort Collins between two legislators when one of them accused the other of making racially insensitive comments about minorities and the infant mortality rate during a meeting yesterday.
Let me take a timeout.
I'll come back and tell you what happened in this event that was horribly racist, horribly insensitive, and really mean.
Don't go away.
All right, your telephone calls are coming up, I promise, and I really, as always, appreciate all of you holding on and your patience.
The heated exchange between two legislators occurred during a meeting in Colorado.
The economic opportunity and poverty reduction task force.
Republican state Senator Vicky Marble addressed health issues among African Americans.
And she said, Vicky Marble, Senator Vicky Marble said, quote, when you look at life expectancy, there are certain problems in the black race.
Marble, by the way, is white, so she's already in trouble.
She said sickle cell anemia is something that comes up.
Diabetes is something that's prevalent in the genetic makeup.
Although I have to say, I've never had better barbecue and better chicken and ate better in my life than when you go down south.
I mean I love it.
Everybody loves it.
Well, the African American was not at all happy about this.
Rhonda Fields was her name.
And she said that Vicky Marble's statements were offensive and stereotypical.
So one of the things that I will not tolerate is racist and insensitive remarks about African Americans, the color of their skin, what you mentioned that we eat, I was highly offended by your remarks, and I will not engage in a dialogue where you are using these stereotypical references about African Americans and chicken and food.
And I would ask that you suspend your perceptions and judgments about African Americans about poverty.
What we're trying to do is come up with some meaningful solutions.
It's not about eating chicken.
Another person said that John Cafallis, Democrat Fort Collins.
Yeah, Vicky Marble's comments a little unsettling here.
I had to end it because she was going on and on.
It was disconcerting that she made those comments.
I don't think I don't think she always understands the implications of what she says.
This Vicky Marble Republican babe.
I was disturbed.
I mean, it's incredibly unfortunate that it distracted us from the important work we're trying to do and extend more opportunity to folks to raise themselves out of poverty.
This is a classic.
I I've I don't know anybody involved in this, but I think I know exactly what happened here.
Let me take a stab and you tell me if I'm way off base or if I I think this Vicky Marble is totally aware of saying the wrong thing, totally hyper-aware.
You cannot be unaware and be in politics.
I think she was pandering.
There's no doubt, look at sickle cell anemia is something that affects blacks at a higher rate than others.
Diabetes, too.
The stuff about food, everybody tells us that what we eat affects the diseases we get, so she's simply associating what we eat, southern cooking.
Ruby's soul food, Sylvia's soul food, whatever.
And she thought, okay, maybe maybe I've been misunderstood.
So I'm gonna tell everybody how much I love the food.
She was trying to be complimentary, but she realized in the middle of it that she probably stepped in it because she can't even talk that way.
She's not allowed to acknowledge certain things like sickle cell anemia being uh uh more predominant in blacks than others, or um diabetes and this kind of thing, even though both of those things are true.
And so the knee jerk reaction is here's a white woman insulting and being racist, and so the by the book reaction that we have to do is stand up, express outrage, call her racist, tell her she's insensitive, bring the proceedings to a screeching halt because we're simply not gonna tolerate that kind of discrimination.
And I think this Vicky Marble, and I could be all wrong, I'm just guessing.
I think she was actually trying to be nice or accommodating and not offend anybody.
I think it just doesn't work though.
And back to the phones we go.
Colorado Springs, Colorado.
We're gonna start with Jen.
Great to have you on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hi, how's it going?
Very well, thank you very much.
Good.
Um, you know, I actually grew up in a family that's super rush loyalist, but I never really listened until the last year when I was just getting so frustrated.
Well, I'm glad you found your way to us.
So aren't you?
I've been listening the last couple of days, and I've been hearing you talk about the millennials.
Yeah.
And honestly, I totally get where you're coming from, but totally annoyed that that's the perspective people have of my age group.
Are you one?
Are you a millennial?
Well, so I'm 31, and I don't know if you count me out because I'm 31 and not 30.
You're close, you're close enough.
Okay, so you here's the point.
You think you were being discussed, right?
Is your listing well and I know I know you weren't discussing me, like you said multiple times, you know, sixty percent of the people that voted for Obama in this age group, whatever, that's what you're talking about.
And I get that.
But I have a couple of thoughts about that, because I think that it's a little different than your perspective is obviously most of my friends are in my same age group.
And just for my background, I'm a military wife.
I run my own business, and I'm um I we currently live in Colorado, but I grew up in New Mexico in the middle of lots of different nationalities because I grew up in the middle of the reservation.
And um, my parents were super poor my whole life, but we never went on welfare.
My dad just worked hard to try and make it work for us.
He has seven kids in my family.
So my parents didn't pay for me to go to school.
I paid for a couple of years for school for myself and didn't end up graduating.
I got married and had a baby instead.
But along the way, I decided to start my own business.
And this is where I think the misconception is.
I honestly think that the parents of my age group grew up thinking that they had to do more for their kids than their parents did for them, so they did, and that has enabled their children to not be successful.
Okay, let me hold on.
I need you to slow down.
No, it's it's my hearing.
I need to be able to follow you.
So I want to I want to ask, I want to make sure I heard what you're you just said.
You're a millennial, you're 31, you you listened to program yesterday, you heard me talking about that group, and you disagree a little, my point, and the and the the essence of your disagreement is that you think the the parents of millennials who were uh uh themselves uh becoming of age during Clinton gore and this kind of thing.
Right.
They they were raised to want to do more for their kids than their parents had done for them.
And exactly and wait a minute now, and this created in you the kids, what a dependency or an expectation that others were gonna do for you?
What what what's the Okay.
That's exactly what I'm getting at.
And that's I know.
So you were not raised to be self-sufficient.
You were not raised to be self-reliant.
You were raised to be dependent.
Is that what you're saying?
Right.
I personally was raised to be self-reliant, because like I said, my parents didn't have a lot.
And they just we graduated from high school and we were sent on our way.
Um but a lot and we were given the tools to do so when we graduated.
But I think the problem is that so many of the kids I grew up with, their parents never made them have a job while they went to school and high school, so they had no concept of what it meant to be gainfully employed and what it meant to provide anything for themselves.
I bought my own school clothes once I had a job.
So I think a lot of the problem, I mean, I know it sounds lame to be putting the blame on these this older generation, but if you look and you see they're the ones that are allowing these kids to move back into their homes.
Let me tell you something.
Jen, there's nothing new about that.
Young people have been blaming their parents since uh the children of Adam and Eve.
Excuse me.
There's nothing new about that.
That's uh, and I don't mean to diminish your theory because I think it has some um I think it has some validity.
Uh I uh you know Snerdley said to me yesterday during the middle of this discussion, um, who the man who screened your call, who determined that you were fit to appear on the program today.
He got he got kind of mad at me yesterday because why are we giving these kids so much damn attention?
For Crane One, they haven't done anything yet.
They already think the world revolves around them.
Why are you furthering that notion?
They haven't done diddly squat yet, and they're demanding all this and expecting all that.
I said the reason, because normally he's right.
I think too many young people are coddled.
That's what you're saying, Jen.
You were coddled.
You were not prepared for the rigors out there, and now you've and now you've run into the rigors and you don't know what to deal with it is, and that we but see Snerdley's point was that here you have a bunch of kids 21 to 30, and everybody's making a big deal at them.
What do they think?
What do they want?
What are they gonna vote?
When are they gonna vote?
How are they gonna vote?
What are they gonna do?
Where are they gonna go?
All that sort of and when we were 21, Jen, nobody cared about us.
We were punks, we haven't proven anything yet, and they didn't nobody expected anything of us except a plan.
When when I talked to an adult, when I was in my teenage years and early 20s, when I ran into an adult, one of my parents' friends, inevitably, they would ask me, what are you gonna do to make a living?
And they made a value judgment on my answer.
It was just the way it was then.
I remember I was I was out to illustrate this.
I was at a a world-famous golf club back in the I guess it was the mid not that long a mid-90s.
And I was with a friend of mine and his 30-something son.
Maybe late 20-something son.
And here came General Alexander Haig, who I had met one time previous, but he was a friend of my friend.
And the first thing General Haig said to this 20-ish young man, so what are you going to do to make a living, son?
It was just what you asked.
It was just that that was the assessment that the adults made of young people.
How serious were they?
Of course, the the the bottom line there is, what are you gonna do to earn your way?
That's what the question really was.
What are you gonna do to earn your way?
Somewhere along the line, the question became what do we have to do to not hurt your feelings.
What do we have to do not to disappoint you?
So in a way she's right, you can blame the millennials.
I mean, they've been conditioned.
But the reason that I am focusing on this particular group, uh, and I had to explain this again to Snerdley, is because this group, we've had the Gen X, and we've had the whatever the generations, a bunch of them.
But this group, by sixty percent of them voted for Obama, and they're and they're disappointed, they have they're losing faith in the country.
That is not good.
That's new.
Previous generations, when things haven't worked out, they might have blamed the adults, and they might have blamed a politician or party, and they might have blamed themselves, but they did not blame the country.
This group is on the verge of losing faith in the country.
And what they need to realize, what they need to made to be realized is that what is happening in this country is the direct result of political policies of a particular party and man and the belief system they have.
Because precisely by definition, this is not America right now.
This kind of aimless wandering with with no hope for the future and this misery.
I mean, this isn't this is almost like the reliving the Great Depression.
But even then people didn't lose faith in the country.
That is new, where they ought to be losing faith in the Democrat Party.
They ought to be losing faith in Obama.
But how can they when the Republican Party doesn't appear to exist?
When the Republican Party doesn't teach, when the Republican Party doesn't present an alternative, when the Republican Party does not say, no, you shouldn't lose faith in America.
It's the greatest country ever.
The reason you're in a situation you're in right now is because of the policies of the President of the United States and his party and bam, bam, bam, list them.
And run TV ads about it.
You don't have to lie, in this case, tell them the truth.
There are truthful explanations.
So not no Jen wasn't coddled, but her friends were.
And uh this country has up until now has had so much prosperity, so much abundance.
And every parent, it's natural, wants a better life for their kids.
Mine did too.
But they didn't think that should happen by virtue of it being given to us.
They were all about my parents never doubted the opportunity would be there.
To them, their job was somehow getting me motivated, educated, prepared to go to work pursuing that opportunity or those opportunities, or whatever it was that I chose to do.
But they're never thought they were to give it to us.
Subsequent generations of parents have become soft.
They don't want to see their kids in pain, don't want to see them crying, don't want to see them suffering.
They don't want to see them learning in that way.
And whatever – it's almost the way they deal with their pets.
You don't want your pet to suffer.
You don't want your pet to experience any pain.
And so there became this subtle notion that you could succeed without having to work for it.
But I think I think Jen here from Colorado Springs could have a point.
Being spoiled might make it easier to blame the country when you don't get everything you want.
Being spoiled might facilitate this idea of losing faith in the country.
She could be right.
But I have to take a break.
Jen, I'm really glad you called.
We'll be back and roll right on when we get back.
Meeting and surpassing all audience expectations every day.
Rush Limbaugh and John in Perryville, Missouri, which is uh not far right up the road from my hometown of Cape Girardo.
How are you doing, uh uh John?
Thank you for calling.
Rush, thank you for taking my call, and more importantly, I'm glad that Sterling gave me the honor and privilege to speak to you.
Yes, sir.
Yes, sir.
Um I'm I'm an entrepreneur, my family I'm a third generation in a professional photography business.
Last night I'm on the treadmill after I get my son in bed and I'm watching some of the liberal commentary on what's going on in Oklahoma.
Right.
And what what what concerns me is the real core problem here, and I think back to my own business when when I have children come into my office and I photograph them and I think they're ruly and out of control and and not as good as what they should be, I start looking closer at the parents.
And then what I start realizing last night is no one's ever talking about the parents.
Because I believe children are a direct reflection of their parents outside of something unique causing them to change their life.
And I think that's what the press is forgetting, and the rest of uh what's going on out there is that what about the parents?
Why aren't the parents parenting?
My m my parents, or at least my father is a gun carrying permit person.
My wife and I are going to be getting our gun carrying permit, not because we have guns or believe in guns, or not that we don't believe in guns, but we believe in the s the right to carry one.
But my parents taught me how to be a functional human being, and I think that's what we're missing in America today is that for quite a few generations, parents think, well, let's let the government take care of them.
And this is not about the government.
This is about personal responsibility.
I can't send my kid to a school and expect that the teacher's gonna fix him if I send him to the school district.
Your um your your basic uh question observation is in regards to the two shooters in Duncan, Oklahoma Duncan, Oklahoma is well what were their parents doing when they grew up?
What?
Right.
Right, okay.
Now, I just want you, John, I cannot answer that question and have a radio show tomorrow.
Right, right.
And and I can't either, and have a business tomorrow.
You and I both know the answer, but if we dare utter it, we that it's not gonna be a pretty sight.
No, and it's sad because your point is that nobody I we we do.
We have in the the the left has to make excuses.
In fact, not make excuses.
What the left actually does is try to establish the supremacy of what happens in in uh in family life with with their policies intact.
So they make the they they they romanticize single parenthood.
They romanticize the single mother working against the odds to make everything okay.
They just – the statistics here are what they are.
And it's obviously we we gotta we have a cultural problem here, and all we do when each of these incidents come up, we deal with uh symptom.
But to use a cliche, we deal with the symptom and not the disease.
And what has actually happened is, you know, like everybody I think it was Michelle Malkin who said on TV last night, night before, that we're we're w we missed the boat when we focus on gun control.
We need gang control, I think she said.
Gang control.
There's no condemnation of the gangs, they're simply an acknowledgement they exist, and maybe some people say it isn't good, but we have to understand.
We have to understand, we must understand the rage.
And so her point was chasing guns is the whole wrong thing to do because it's just an outgrowth of something else that's wrong at a much, much deeper level.
But you can't talk about you can't go there.
You are you're gonna be pulverized and creamed and tarred and feathered, everything else.
But everybody gets your point.
I'm I'm glad you call this is oops, I think we squeeze one more in here.
Clarence in Toledo.
Great to have you, sir, on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hi, Roger.
You know, uh uh the last 20 years, we haven't had uh a Republican Party.
We had uh the re uh Democratic Party, and then we had the Democratic Party B team.
That's what the Republican Party is.
Well, and a lot of people and the president of this is John McCain.
He's done more to hurt this country than a thousand Bin Ladens.
Well now, wait just a second.
That may be a little excessive.
A thousand.
I'll tell you what, the four of them together, him, uh Ted Kenny when they were live, uh Graham, they're rat.
They're like the old uh Sonaka Rat pack, them poor.
You think you think that McCain let's say you're McCain, Kennedy, uh Graham, and let's say you probably say Schumer's in that group.
Yeah.
And you think they're doing more damage and have done more damage than anything bin Laden dreamed of.
Well, look at it, you know, I'm I'm guilty of one thing, and that's saying to my kids and my grandkids, I grew up in the best part of this country because there's no Republican Party to fight for us anymore.
When I was growing up, we used to say, as long as the Republican Party was in in in uh uh in ruling, you had a job and it's companies were making money, and we were making money.
Clarence, the Republican Party is embarrassed of people like you.
And even me to a certain extent sometimes.
But they're Republican Party, I think, is trying to uh reshape or reform its base.
It's a partial explanation.
Uh thank you for the call, and we will be back.
Half take a break here at the top of the hour.
Folks, I have a I don't know how to it's a great piece in the Wall Street Journal, but it's somewhat frustrating at the same time.
But it's all good.
Export Selection
