Just tell them, tell them that I put screenshots of all of it at rushlimbaugh.com.
I explained this in the first hour, folks, the people not listening then.
All that stuff I was explaining about how to save battery time and other things on the screenshots.
I've all explained at rush rushlimbaugh.com.
Once you see the screenshots, it'll all come together for you.
And yes, the explanation is there too.
But no, it's a way to stop battery churn.
I've just, I've found a way.
It's all explained there.
Hi, folks.
Uh greetings and welcome back.
L Rushbo at 800-282.
2882.
You know there's something else.
We had this guy call, and I've made this point before.
The one thing you never hear the Democrats do when they campaign is promise to work with us.
You never hear them say, and I don't walk across the aisle and deal with Senator McCain.
Now there's two reasons.
A, they destroy, they make it very clear they don't want to work with us.
They make it clear that as far as they're concerned, we are the absolute enemy.
There's no reason they would want to work with us.
They make it perfectly clear their only objective is to wipe us out.
So why would they want to work with us?
But we have been told by the consultants that the independents don't like that.
That when the independents hear political parties referred to as the enemy that that makes them very, very nervous.
And if we don't talk about working together with the Democrats, the independents are going to run away from us.
Well, why don't the independents ever run away from Democrats?
How come when the independents talk about wiping the floor with us, never talking about working with us?
They never talk about crossing the aisle.
They never talk about having Washington work by cooperating.
The only thing what they'll do is the Republicans need to compromise.
Why don't the independents get scared of the Democrats like they supposedly get scared of us?
They don't, obviously.
We're winning independence now.
But there's another thing besides all that.
The Democrats, I don't care how loony they are.
They never kick them out of the party and they never act embarrassed of them.
You take the most extreme, mean-spirited, genuinely insane liberal, and they are embraced.
The Democrat Party never publicly disowns any of its own.
The Democrat Party embraces MSNBC.
They do not act like it's an embarrassment.
They do not, they always rally and circle the wagons.
I'll give you a great illustration of this.
When Dan Rather was totally humiliated when he got caught making up a story about George Bush and the National Guard, after a long investigation, CBS had no choice but then to fire him.
Within a week, Peter Jennings and Tom Brokaw had organized an awards dinner, a lifetime achievement award dinner for Dan Radder.
Because they had to do that to make sure that whatever Rather had done did not destroy the perception of the media.
Do we do anything like that?
We there are people on our side who want medals for throwing others on our side overboard.
That is another big difference.
And I just I wanted to mention that.
And just to reiterate on this 4.2 million people, Joseph Curl's piece that you know we've totally upended the healthcare system for 4.2 million people.
We haven't, because the 4.2 million people, that's enrollees.
We don't know how many of those have actually signed up.
All we have is out of all of this, after everything that's happened, 4.2 million people have gone to healthcare.gov.
Some of them think they've signed up, others haven't.
Many of them don't even know.
Some of them have paid, but there's no evidence.
They can't find proof of it.
It is an absolute disaster.
The best that we can tell, and these are all regime numbers anyway, so how do we believe any of it?
But if we take the number at face value, 25% of that 4.2 million who have enrolled at Obamacare, healthcare.gov.
25% of them, about a thousand of them, a million of them, didn't have insurance.
So the whole point here was to insure the uninsured.
We got 4.2 million enrollees, and maybe a million of those were uninsured.
So if you accept the regime's number 46 million uninsured, and for that we got to totally blow up health care system and redesign it and transform it.
After all of this, since 2010, four years, one million people.
Best guess, who did not have insurance now have it.
And it's being paid for by you and me.
They're being subsidized, they're being subsidized by their neighbors.
And the Wall Street Journal has a piece.
This is from the weekend.
Health site plans, deadline leeway.
Federal officials are planning a workaround that would effectively extend the March 31st deadline to enroll.
For some users, if technical glitches hamper a last minute surge of signups.
See, March 31st is the drop dead date where everybody has to have, even if you have been granted a two-year, three year extension, still have to sign up.
It's kind of like the draft.
Even though there's no draft, you got to sign up.
You have to register.
That's what they claim here.
And the regime is saying that there might be on March 30th and March 31st, there might be this mass overwhelming number of people who all of a sudden bombard the website at the last minute.
And if that happens, the regime is planning a workaround that would effectively extend the March 31st deadline.
For users who encounter technical glitches.
That's the honor system, too.
This is pretty amazing, even by regime standards, because way back last Wednesday, Kathleen Sabilus told Congress that there would be no more delaying of the Obamacare deadlines.
That March 31st was hard and fast, etched in stone.
But now this is this is the sneaked out, this is late Friday.
They sneaked out another change that will in effect allow just about anybody to enroll after March 31st.
All they got to do is claim technological glitch hardship.
Just like the other crowd, well, hardship would be a hardship for me to sign up.
Oh, okay.
Well, then you don't have to until after the election in 2016.
Hey, I tried to sign up, but man, it was so busy.
I kept getting hung up on by your website.
I encountered all kinds of tech glitches on March 31st.
Well, no problem, it will extend you.
There really isn't, except that there is any Obamacare.
We're all living by it, but there isn't any.
The regime is getting twofers and threefers here.
They're getting the control, they're getting the intimidation factor, they're wiping out the private sector insurance market, but they're not doing anything else.
I mean, nobody's got insurance speak of, but they're in the process of really limiting the places you can get it.
It's a disaster.
Put this another way.
Obama and Obamacare would insure 30 million people who didn't have insurance.
Instead, they've insured one million.
They start out, and either 30 or 46 million, Depending on the day of the week, the number of the uninsured.
And that's the objective.
And so far, one million people who didn't have insurance now have it.
And we don't know how many people who had their policies canceled, said hell with it.
And are now going without insurance.
They're going to pay the fine.
We don't know anything.
We got a website that has literally no metrics.
It has no back end.
They'd have a website that cannot report anything.
We got a deadline, but no deadline.
And then there is.
Kind of like Donovan.
Remember that song?
First, there is a mountain.
And then there's no mountain.
And then there is.
Remember the lyrics in that song?
You don't remember that song?
You were probably blowing dope back then.
Well, no, you would have heard the song if you'd have been doing that.
First, there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, and then there is.
That's the actual lyric line.
First there is no deadline, and then there's a deadline, and now there's no deadline.
Look it up.
Get out Shazam or something.
The app, whatever, find the lyrics of the tune.
I'd like to go to the audio sound bites.
I mentioned earlier that I just I can't watch media coverage of the missing airliner.
I just can't.
Don't care what it is, because to me, there isn't a person who knows that is appearing on TV.
And yet, they're all on TV.
Everybody who knows nothing is on TV.
Not to put them down, folks.
I mean, it's just the nature of the beast.
Go get people who don't know anything, but might have an intriguing sounding opinion.
And this has just created this primordial soup atmosphere for conspiracy theories to just go through the roof.
And it's just, it's it's now so far gone that the simple explanation is what's going to end up being the truth here, but nobody's going to accept it because they're so far gone now with potential theories that it's going to be difficult for people.
People aren't going to believe the truth once it's known.
But my point, I just can't watch the I'm interested in it.
I'm fascinated by it.
But I I have to, if I do watch it, I start making jokes about it, irritating the people who are watching with me.
Well, I'll give you an example.
You're watching one of the networks over the weekend, and some guest is talking about his theory of pilot suicide, or have flown to Pakistan, and they're going to kill all the passengers, put a giant nuclear bomb in it.
And they're talking about the techniques of finding an airplane that's lost in the technological advancements we've had with the location data and pinging in the engines, and now they continue to send information long after the plane disappeared.
And as they were talking about that B-roll showed up of what looked like the Vietnamese Navy in a fishing trawler, with a bunch of these Vietnamese military guys in their weird army hats with binoculars looking out over somebody of water.
And so I said, look at that.
They actually want us to believe that this is video of an actual search for this airplane.
And it's B-roll.
And then after that, we get a close-up of some kind of electronic gauge.
Like on a dashboard or in some high-tech studio or equipment room.
And so I was, look, look!
Maybe we'll see a ping.
They're showing that gauge in case there's another ping from the airplane.
And people sitting with me.
Would you stop?
And I said, I'm just, I'm just watching this like the low information crowd would be watching it.
So we have some audio sound bites, nevertheless.
Because even though the coverage may leave me cold, I realize a lot of people are fascinated by it.
So what are we going to do?
We got uh CNN.
we chose this because they're they're gone now into the supernatural to explain this.
The explanation for what happened to Malaysian Airlines flights the flight 370 is now supernatural.
And I think this series of bites illustrates, sums up what CNN and the drive-bys have become.
A news story is not what did happen.
No, that's not what a new the story is what might happen.
The story is not what did happen, and of course, we don't know.
So the coverage, they could do everything they know about this in ten minutes, is my point.
Instead, they're doing it in segments of 24 hours.
So they have to talk to experts about what could have happened.
And that's become the news.
Not what did happen, but what might have happened.
And what might still happen.
And then what would explain what has happened that we can't figure out and we don't know?
Brad Meltzer, uh history channel.
He hosts a show called Decoded.
Decoted, like in the decrypt something, decode, not strip the paint off of something for those of you in real linda.
Decoded.
He's the host of this history channel show.
And he's on there about the missing airliner.
Don Lemon, the anchor.
You deal with conspiracy theories all the time on your network, the history channel.
There's a lot of conspiracy theories in history, folks.
And that's why this guy's on.
So what do you make of this, uh Brad?
What do you make of it?
I mean, how can a how can a large passenger jetliner just vanish like this?
It seems to fallen off the edge of the earth.
Well, we're looking at really it's almost like the pilot episode of Lost.
And that's the scary question, right?
How does it vanish?
And we have to remember that makes it a mystery.
And mystery is like any stories.
A story isn't what did happen, it's what could happen.
That's the scariest part to me.
It's not just that they vanished, but we haven't heard anything in all this time.
We all know how impossible it is.
And it's where every conspiracy falls apart.
How do you keep everyone quiet?
This is the author, Brad Meltzer.
I think he writes mystery books.
It could be the same guy.
It's good his books are good.
But even he gets to it here.
It's almost like the pilot episode of Lost.
Now I imagine when some people heard that what what pilots?
What would the pilots of lost do?
No, no, no.
Pilot of first episode.
In fact, I'm just gonna tell you.
We're watching it, got some people, and you know what I said?
I really ticked them off.
I said, you know what this is?
This is all a publicity stunt.
Some TV producer is actually doing lost for real.
This jets landed someplace and they've got cameras, they're doing a TV show.
And so here's Meltzer coming.
Hey, it's just like the pilot episode of Lost.
And then he talks about the conspiracy theory.
He said the problem with a conspiracy theory is that everybody involved has to be quiet.
They can't give it away.
Better take a break, because I've got a couple other sound bites with this to illustrate how this is off the rails.
Back after this.
I need to get to the phones here, folks.
We've had a young boy, ten years.
I'm sorry, it's a young girl, ten years on the uh ten years old on the phone for a while now.
Name is Riley.
Riley, I'm I really appreciate your waiting.
Hello.
Thanks, Rosh.
So my bacon, I can't believe I'm talking to you.
Well, thank you very much for trying.
I appreciate your getting through.
I just called the comment on your book and uh key things I'd like to tell you.
Um, well, first of all, uh couple weeks ago we made a snowman, okay.
And a couple weeks later, and they'll look into the exact profile of John Kerry.
Really?
Yes.
It was very strange.
Profile of John Kerry Snowman.
Then I was going to ask it.
Is it really true?
Are you really a harmless lovable fudgeball?
Totally.
Totally.
I'm I've one of the nicest, sweetest, quietest, I mean, people you would ever meet.
I'm one of the most humble people that you would ever run into, Riley.
She's laughing, but it's it's it happens it happens to be the truth.
You asked, and I wouldn't lie to you about it.
Yeah.
If I were a mean person, I would tell you, and then I'd hang up on you.
Okay, my mom's wanted to marry you since she was 16.
Since she was 15.
How old is she now?
18?
She's like, I don't know, 30.
Riley, hang on a minute.
Don't don't go away, Riley.
No, I just have to be right back.
Don't hang up.
And we're back with 10 year old Riley in Jefferson, Ohio.
You did you did hold on, right?
Mm-hmm.
Oh, wonderful.
Now, Riley, let me ask you a quick question.
If I had said that I was not a harmless, lovable fuzzball, would your mother still want to have married me?
I don't know.
Would you?
Oh, she's asking her.
She's well, you don't have to do that.
You have to put your mom on the spot.
And I was just teasing about your mom's age and so forth.
You do tell your mom I'm very flattered by that.
Well, probably.
She probably wouldn't still watch me.
Well, you kind of let a secret out of the bag on that, didn't you, when you told me that?
Because you kind of whispered that.
You said that real fast.
Now, Riley, have you have you do you have the second when you have Rush Revere and the Brave uh and the first Patriots?
Uh no, I I but I heard about it and I really would want it because Yeah, it uh I heard about it.
Okay.
I'm excited about it.
Have you?
I've only listened to the first book.
You've listened to the first book.
Oh, you have the audio version of me reading it.
Have you read it or just listen to it?
I did listen to the audio book, but I do have the fur I do have the book too.
But I just got that for Christmas.
All right.
Well, I tell you, let me ask you this.
Do you yet use a computer?
Do you uh surf the net?
Uh yeah, my mom does.
But you don't.
Yeah, but she she can let me.
Because here's what I'm thinking.
Um you you've you've asked me some stuff and you've got you've given me a a reason to talk about something.
A, what I want to do, I want to send you the second book, Rush Revere and the First Patriots, and the audio version.
I'm gonna send those so when we finish here, don't hang up.
And uh the nice man, Mr. Snerdley, not as nice as I am, but it would he's okay.
He'll pick up the phone and get your address so we can send it to you.
But but but what wait a minute.
Also, what we've done, we have really are you listening?
Because I want you to hear this since you since your mom surfed the net.
Are you you still there?
Yes.
Okay.
We get a lot of emails uh from people like you who have read the book, and they they send us amazing pictures of themselves and their kids reading the book, uh, opening we got one of the cr one of the greatest videos just over the weekend of uh uh a young girl so excited her book had just arrived,
and her brother or somebody gave it to her and she ripped it open and and they sent us that video.
Uh and we want people to check this out.
We're really building up the social center at the Rush Revere website, the Adventures of Rush Revere, which is actually at twoifyt.com.
T W O2FBYT.com.
If you go there, just find the Adventures to Rush Revere and it'll open up in the social center.
And so that's where people can send pictures, fan letters to to Liberty or to Revere and and videos and whatever, and it's growing, and it's just a great interactive thing.
There are games and pop quizzes, tests, questions, all kinds of things that you can do there to further your experience with the books.
It's really, really cool.
Now, here's what else I want to do.
Are you still there?
Okay.
Because what I want to do is send you and your mother a new iPad so that you can search the two if by tea.com website for the adventures of Rush Revere so that you can see what I'm talking about here.
You can do it on your computer now, but you need a new iPad.
These are the coolest.
Yes.
Okay.
Now, would somebody mean and would a troll do that for you, or would a harmless lovable little fuzzball do that for you?
I don't know.
Probably a harmless lovable little football.
Exactly right.
You you're just so smart.
You're just one of the smartest, smartest girls I've talked to in a long time.
So what I want you to do is hold on.
Oh, ask your mother, what color of iPad would you like?
Black or white.
Uh I don't know.
Well, ask her.
I'll sit here and wait.
Wait, what?
Just ask her.
White or black.
Okay.
No wrong answer.
No wrong answer.
Uh probably white.
I knew it.
Okay, find white it will be.
So uh we'll we'll find that, and you hang on, Mr. Snerd will be right back to you with a give us an address that we can FedEx this to you.
So we'll probably say it'll the iPad will come by itself, and then the the new book and the audio version of the book will come in a separate package.
Thank you so much.
You are more than welcome.
I'm glad you like the book.
And I'm glad you like the audio version.
I I'm really flattered by that.
And again, just a reminder now, Riley.
When you go to twoifyt.com, that's that's where you find the adventures of Rush Revere.
And this great website there that we are really building up just for kids.
It's a it's it's well, everybody actually, but it's it's uh because it's cute for everybody, but it is a way to build on the reading experience of the book.
It is a way to further interact with the characters.
It is a way to send uh fan letters or pictures of yourself with the book, and it's and that's how we get them and post them, and we create this giant network, this community of people who love Rush Revere and Liberty.
So just go to twoifyt.com and find the adventures of Rush Revere.
You can't miss it.
Click on it and you'll see the social center and have at it.
And Riley, I preach this Michelle in Charleston, South Carolina.
You're next.
Great to have you on the program.
Hello.
Hi, Rush.
I am so excited to talk to you.
Well, thank you.
I am a rush baby, and I'm raising six rush babies.
Six?
And yes, six rush babies, and we got the your first book for my oldest son, Josiah.
He's eleven.
He loved history.
So he read right through that first book and then began to read it for his younger brothers and sisters.
And his younger sister, Michaela, who's eight, got so excited that she didn't want to wait for him to read it to everybody every night.
So she grabbed it and she finished it on her own.
And then you know, let me tell you something.
I gotta tell you, but your your your son, Josiah, is that what his name is?
Yes, so he's gotta be really good.
You know, reading for other people and have it be interested.
That's not that's not easy to do.
No, but he is pretty creative, and he does do a pretty good job.
I'm sure not as good as you, but no, but it's gotta be if he's if he's got his sister wanting to pick it up and read it, that's good.
You can't do any better than that.
Absolutely.
And then when Michaela got done, my ten-year-old son Jonathan, who is much more of a math and science guy and doesn't really care for history, he decided that he was gonna pick it up and finish it on his own too.
So he finished it, and then Josiah just finished reading it out loud to his younger brother and sister, who he's got a kindergartner brother who can't really can't really read yet, and is now asking me when am I gonna be able to read well enough to read Rush's book myself.
You may be looking at an advanced reading student here.
He might want to learn to read it so badly, he'll just get going on it.
That's right.
Well, now I've got every day my three oldest children when 1205 comes around saying, Mom, make sure we put on Rush.
They're very excited to put on the radio.
They're engaged in your show.
They're even the other uh last week we were talking about the Ukraine because we're talking about it after listening to your show and all these world events and current events, and they are they are just really engaging more in what's going on, and they're fascinated by everything that's going on now and listening to your show.
That is just that's that's incredible.
That is that is overwhelming.
I'm I'm near speechless here.
Well, we appreciate you writing the books.
We actually are now the three oldest ones have started reading your second book.
I think they're all right at the beginning.
They're not gonna be.
Look at this, folks.
Is this not incredible?
We got young children now learning to read just so they can read.
The Rush Revere books.
This is this is music to our ears.
Look, Michelle, hang on while I'm uh we'll send some stuff out for your kids to it, audio versions and stuff.
Um, because that's a whole new experience.
Uh we'll do that.
And hang on, Mr. Snerdley, we'll get your name and address, and we'll we'll have we'll get that stuff out as quickly as we can.
See, folks, this is the this is the thing.
There the we're not just hawking books here.
This is not there is a mission behind this, and that is to counter what really is being taught in schools today, is particularly the young people, it's not the truth about American history.
Uh, there is an absolute mission behind it.
And I can't tell you how gratifying it is to get phone calls like this because this is evidence that the mission is being accomplished, that it was a decent mission, that it was worthwhile, and that it's paying off.
And I'm just ecstatic.
I I I to have this kind of connection being made with young people like this is just wonderful.
Just great.
And the you know, it's not every school, but there are a lot of schools that are just mangling American history and the multicultural curriculum.
Um don't want the truth of the founding of this country known.
And there's every reason in the world for it to be known.
There's every reason in the world, especially for kids to be proud of where they were born, and to be able to understand why they should be proud, and to understand how special in the entire human race this country is.
Because that is just gonna expand their appreciation of it, which is the objective.
So I appreciate all this.
I really do now.
I gotta take another brief time out.
We'll be back and continue after this.
Don't go away.
There's one other story in the stack today I wanted to get to.
It is a politico story, uh, ladies and gentlemen.
And it's by Kenneth V. Vogel.
It's called Revenge of the Republican Consultants.
And here's how it starts.
Ten of the consulting firms that formed the core of the push to elect Romney, reaping a combined one billion dollars in the process, have survived a Tea Party assault and are again among the highest grossing, best positioned players in Republican politics.
This is a story praising the consultants who lose and how much money they make nevertheless.
But the point is that I, your host, am referenced here.
And it's this way.
So it's funny but give it one panel, CPAC panel, one panel entitled Should We Shoot All the Consultants Now featured a fiery speech from Erstwild Democrat polster Pat Cadell that blew the lid off CPAC,
according to Rush Limbaugh, who joined the hate parade, Calling the GOP's elite consultants a very close-knit closed group making filthy amounts of money even when the candidate wins or loses.
So I have joined the hate parade of the consultants.
Now I just how the media intimidates people into shutting up.
Call them haters.
Imply, not in this case, but in other people, imply they're racists or sexists or what have you.
I don't hate the consultants.
There is no parade of hate.
It's just criticism.
The consultants are the guys that tell the Republicans, sign me up.
I can tell you how to win the independence.
I think our consultants are victims of a pretty clever trick that the Democrats have been playing.
The Democrats and the media have convinced our consultants that every election they only need to focus on 20% of the electorate.
The independents.
They believe 40% here are going to vote for you automatically, 40% there vote Democrat automatically.
It leaves 20% undecided open.
And what's happened is the Republicans have stopped servicing their base.
Witness four million Republicans not showing up and voting for Romney.
Not showing up and voting, period.
Romney won the independence handily and lost the election.
But there's no hate parade of consultants.
There's simply a disagreement.
It's safe to say that if there's any animated emotion out there, it's the consultants aimed at the tea party.
And at conservatives.
It's like anything else, folks.
I get up every day.
I look at the things I cherish and believe in under assault.
And I come here and defend them.
And that is portrayed as offensive attacking filled with hate, which it's not.
John in Deerfield Beach, Florida, thank you for waiting.
Great to have you on the program.
Hello, sir.
Who are us?
I'll tell you what, man.
What a joy to uh hear you interact with those uh those precious children.
Isn't it though?
I appreciate your mentioning that.
Thank you.
That's what the country's all about.
So I can't tip my cap you in there.
Imagine how that scares planned parenthood, John.
Oh, Josh.
It's it's such an honor to speak to a a true American as yourself.
And I'm gonna be brief, but uh couple of uh questions for you as to why do the Republicans um continue to raise the debt ceiling?
What do they expect to come out of?
Because they're gonna they're they raise the debt ceiling because they're really gonna they're trying to trap the Democrats.
They'll let them have the debt ceiling, and they're gonna come back and they'll really oppose them on the budget.
Well, I'm uh I'm a small business owner, and it's like, you know, I mean, I listened to this guy, and you know, I took an extended lunch because I wanted to talk to you and you know what the question is, John.
You know what the real question is?
What what you're what you're really getting at is why is there a debt ceiling?
Why is there one?
When it gets blown up every time it's up, why do we even have a debt ceiling?
The debt ceiling doesn't stand for anything.
What would happen if they didn't raise the debt ceiling?
What would happen is the beginning of some fiscal sense, but they would tell you it's the end of the world.
They would tell you it's the end of Washington.
They would tell you it's the we can't get by unless we expand.
They would tell you we can't pay our bills, and if we would lose our credit rating and all that.
Don't you wish you could raise your debt ceiling anytime you wanted to, just raise it?
Uh there's no point in having one is the point, because nobody stands for it anymore.
Nobody enforces it anymore.
Sadly, my friends, we are out of busy broadcast minutes, but there are more.
We will be back tomorrow, and we'll look forward to it.
