I might have said Fenton, Missouri at the show open, but I knew it was Ferguson, and I said Ferguson the last time I referenced it.
Ferguson, Missouri.
Fenton, Missouri is 30, 40 miles away.
It was verbal dyslexia.
It was not that I was wrong.
This is one of those things.
Where's the benefit of the doubt?
26 years, I never get the benefit of the doubt.
Rush really knows it's Ferguson.
He just said Fenton.
Folks, when you're documented to be almost always right 99.7% of the time, people, the biggest thrill in a lot of people's lives is pointing out you goofed.
Oh, yes, you all are permitted a mistake here and there.
And when you make one, it's okay.
Learn from it and grow.
When I make a mistake, it's it.
Limbaugh losing his mind doesn't even know where Ferguson, Missouri is.
I knew the guy didn't know what he was talking about all these years.
Anyway, hi, folks.
Welcome back.

Here it is.
Breitbart TV, Saturday from the White House South Lawn.
President Obama blamed intelligence estimates for not anticipating the speed in which ISIS would capture large sections of Iraq.
So Obama badly underestimated ISIS.
But right there he is blaming George W. Bush and the same old easy fallback, bad intel.
But the Iraqi government has been begging for help for airstrikes at a minimum for a long time because of ISIS.
ISIS is in Syria.
ISIS, this is the point about Syria.
ISIS is who we were supporting.
They are the rebels in Syria that our side determined were the freedom fighters seeking to oust the bloody dictator Assad.
ISIS is who we ended up supporting in Syria when we issued that red line to old Basher.
Didn't mean anything because Obama never followed up, but because he never does.
But when I mentioned this in the first hour, you looked at me like you didn't believe it.
I just wanted to tell you he blamed right there at the helicopter before getting on the thing to go to Martha's Vineyard for vacation.
He said it was intelligence estimates.
Oh, yeah, he's in Martha's Vineyard.
In fact, he took Susan Rice with him to make sure that she's kept up to speed while he's on the golf course so that if he needs to know anything, she can be the one to run out and tell him.
He demanded Susan Rice go, they say, to keep him up speed on foreign policy, but not Susan Rice.
Maybe it is Susan Rice.
It's either Susan Rice or Valerie.
Susan Rice.
Yeah.
Yeah, it took Susan Rice.
She's the one staying informed.
She's the one with all the monitors on and everything.
She's the one that's got to bring Obama up speed if he's on the ninth hole or something when ISIS does something.
Now, Obama's also lying about lying about.
Oh, it's just the tip of my tongue.
It'll all come to me.
I'm again faced in a circumstance where I'm trying to say more than is possible to say in one sentence.
Now, about the status of forces agreement, the issue, let me tell you what it is.
This is one of these terms that gets bandied about.
And I guarantee you that there isn't a single low-information voter who knows what one is.
And I think a lot of people may not know.
Status of forces is exactly what it is.
We're going to get out of Iraq theoretically, but we're going to leave some troops there theoretically.
What's the status of those forces?
What are they allowed to do?
Are you going to give them immunity from Iraqi law because we don't want our troops prosecuted for war crimes by the Iraqi government, even though they're supposedly allied with us?
And Obama claims that the Iraqis didn't want one because they didn't want any troops there.
They wanted us all out of there.
And that's why Romney said in the debate, third debate, and I'm, Mr. President, you and I both agreed that there should have been a status of forces agreement.
And Obama could not afford for his base to get the idea that he was on board to any troops remaining in Iraq.
So he's, no, no, no, you're wrong about that.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
I'm not going to leave 10,000 troops there without some agreement.
No way.
I never said that.
I never said that.
Because he couldn't afford two things.
He couldn't afford for his base to hear he was going to leave some troops.
That's what's so cockamamy about this lie Saturday that he had nothing to do with us getting out of Iraq that was all Bush or whatever or status of forces.
He was elected to get us out of Iraq and he ran his mission accomplished laps all over this country and the world.
He was taking full credit for getting us out of Iraq.
And he was hell-bent to get us back in, obviously.
And the argument is that had we left a like we always have.
World War II, there were troops in Germany.
Still have bases there, for example.
It's not uncommon at all for the U.S. to have a military presence in places we have liberated.
They act as a deterrent.
Well, we didn't do that in Iraq.
We got clean out because that was what Obama promised, and that's what the world wanted, and that's what the American people wanted.
Bush was so stupid, Cheney was so stupid, Rumsfeld was so stupid, we didn't have to go there in the first place.
But Obama was going to get us, and doing all of that was going to make the world love us, and they would never attack us again, and there wouldn't be any more terrorism.
And finally, the bad guys would see that we're no threat, and they would love us, and they would stop all this.
Well, that's Obama's fantasy world, liberal conflict resolution 101.
The real world is when the good guys take the deterrent out of a place.
It's free reign for the bad guys.
And the bad guys in this case is a new al-Qaeda adjunct called ISA.
And they're building, and you know what they're doing?
They're literally shooting people in cold blood in the back, lining them up, firing squads, if they refuse to convert to Islam.
There are a lot, this is not said, a lot of Christians being mowed down.
Syria, Iraq, there are some.
But they're just being lined up and shot.
And then some of them are being buried alive, folks, by this ISIS group if they refuse to convert to Islam.
The, I think, president's told us, religion of peace.
Yeah, folks, I really am mad about it.
We're here with a rotten economy, with open borders, with an absolute deteriorating country because of all these lies about Iraq in part.
Damn right, I'm mad.
We could, this, this, where we are is the result of a series of coordinated political strategies that ended up being never-ending lies.
And the American people had no choice but to believe it because they were inundated with it five years in a row, every day, every week, every month, throughout the year, that Iraq was wrong and immoral, that Bush was dumb and stupid, and Cheney was a war-mongering Darth Vader, and all of this just mindless blather.
But the American people believed it, and it was one of the reasons why Obama was elected.
There were many others, but this was a big one, and it was a really big one in terms of keeping his base on his side, keeping his base.
The Obama base is the biggest anti-war, anti-American military, a bunch of pacifists you've ever run into.
And if Obama was caught lying to them and left even 500 troops there, there would be hell to pay from them, fundraising-wise.
You know, a bunch of these rich Hollywood leftist anti-war people, if Obama had lied to them and didn't get us all the way out of Iraq, he'd have had hell to pay.
He didn't want that.
He made a big deal out of getting everybody out of there.
He made a big deal out of the fact that he did it.
He continued to make a big deal about how we should have never been there in the first place because Bush was stupid.
We should have never been there because there was no legit reason to go there.
It wasn't part of the war on terror.
I've not forgotten any of it.
And all of these lies helped create an election climate where this guy gets elected twice.
And as a result, we've got open borders.
We're being invaded on our southern border.
We have an economy that practically does not exist.
All new jobs are one of two things.
They're either being grabbed by immigrants or they're part-time.
We've got middle-class wages plummeting in the last seven years.
More kids living at home than ever before.
More kids with more student debt than ever before.
We've got the health care system that's been taken over by the government, and it's an absolute mess.
None of this needed to happen.
I know, spilt milk.
It did happen.
But this is why, you know, I hope he fails.
Oh, by the way, have you noticed how many people now saying Obama's a failure?
Hillary's out saying Obama's a failure.
All kinds of people now saying it.
Oh, yeah, I've got it here in the stack.
All kinds of people now proclaiming Obama a failure.
When I said I hope he fails, of course, all hell broke loose.
But this is just, it's almost too much because a bunch of people who've had chips on their shoulders about this country in the first place, who've never bought into American exceptionalism, have never bought in fully to the American founding, have never believed that the American, that America is the solution in the world.
They believe America is the problem.
And none of this need happen.
But it did because of this five years of never-ending lies and BS about Iraq.
Now, I'm like everybody else.
There are certain problems that I had with Iraq too.
I think the mission was a little misstated.
The idea of creating a democracy, it's a lofty goal.
But getting rid of Saddam is one thing which we did.
And I understand Bush believes that because of Christianity, that the natural yearning of every human being is the spirit, the yearning desire to be free, throw off the shackles and be free.
And the belief was that if we establish a free Iraq, that it'll be infectious and it'll spread throughout the Middle East.
I mean, this was the grand plan.
And it was admirable as a plan.
I don't know how realistic it was.
But it certainly was not illegitimate.
And it certainly was not based on lies.
And it was not based on false premises.
Bush just didn't care to respond to any of the lies being told about him or his agenda or his foreign policy.
As a matter of policy, there was no response.
All these lies stood unchallenged.
The American people had no choice but to believe it.
The American choice were talked into believing that Iraq was one of the biggest mistakes this country's ever made, bigger than Vietnam.
All because that was in the best interest of the Democrat Party.
Those daily body counts we got, when the body count was less after five years in Iraq than one day in World War II at D-Day.
And yet that sense of perspective was never present.
It was always missing.
It was always gone.
And people ended up being talked into because it was in the media.
It was on TV.
I saw it on TV.
Iraq's terrible.
I saw it on TV, Cheney's Dark Vader.
I saw it on TV.
Cheney never laughs or smiles.
I saw it on TV, Rumsfeld.
All he does stand there with that military guy talking about war.
I saw it on TV.
It's true.
It was all lies.
And now where are we?
Now we're at Iraq.
We're back at Iraq with worse prospects than before we went in there in 2003.
Obama just today said this bombing business could be a long-term project.
Oh.
See, he doesn't have to face his base anymore, folks.
He's not up for election anymore.
So he doesn't really worry.
The only thing he's got to be worried about is fundraising for his upcoming social justice presidential library.
You're going to need money from that.
But he's going to have plenty of foreign donors for that, if you get my drift.
He's still like his Hollywood leftist buddies to chime in.
Now, this use of forces business, the issue on status of forces was always in Obama's hands.
The idea that he couldn't get one approved by the Iraqi parliament that would not allow U.S. soldiers fighting Iraq to be prosecuted in Iraqi courts, not true.
Nouri al-Maliki offered him a status of forces agreement.
Maliki signed it.
Obama rejected it.
It was like Arafat.
Clinton, in an act of desperation back in the 90s, gave Yasser Arafat of Fatah and the PLO everything he wanted as an experiment.
Well, actually, I don't think it was, Arafat would have taken it.
But he didn't.
That's the point.
He rejected it.
Everything he was demanding, Arafat rejected it because he didn't want a solution, like Jesse Jackson doesn't want a solution.
Sharpen doesn't want a solution.
There's too much money.
There's too much power in the politics of grievance.
There's too much money to be made being a victim.
There's too much power to be had with an ongoing never-solved original sin kind of grievance.
Same thing here.
Malachi offered Obama what he wanted.
Obama rejected it.
It was always in his hands.
They later accepted a watered-down version of a Maliki-only agreement.
The Iraqi parliament didn't sign on to it.
And he accepted a very watered, Obama did, a very watered-down version Involving a mission of a very few U.S. soldiers returning just to protect the embassy.
You've heard that trick that these guys play, too, right?
Well, yeah, in fact, the early days of Iraq, we're just sending some troops.
They're just there to guard the embassy.
They're not going to be boots on the ground.
It's a typical Obama excuse when he does commit forces to deny that that's what he's doing.
And I got to take a break here, folks.
So sit tight.
Much more straight ahead when we get back.
Don't go away.
Okay, to the phones we go.
It's about time for that.
We're going to start in Lynchburg, Virginia.
This, Peter, thank you for waiting, sir.
I appreciate your patience.
Hello?
Thank you, Rush.
I heard this weekend on Meet the Depressed, Chuck Todd say that what Barack Obama was doing in Iraq was bush-like in strategy.
I didn't see Meet the Depressed.
I heard they're going to fire David Gregory and put F. Chuck in as the host.
Well, I'm afraid F. Chuck has probably lost his mind because after I got done pulling my hair out, after I heard that, I kind of wondered, what about this is anything but bush-like?
The fact that we're, you know, we don't have a presence there would have been a deterrence.
So this hit-and-run strategy that Barack Obama is using against the what the.
Yeah, but see, this is exactly what I'm talking about.
This is the kind of BS that we got for five years from everybody in the media, every network, every big newspaper.
This is the kind of stuff we got.
F. Chuck Todd on TV covering, in this case, Obama's rear end.
Whoa, yeah, well, this is just the Bush foreign policy.
This is nothing more than George Bush and so forth.
It's just this is an effort to give Obama credit because he's out there on Saturday blaming Bush for this.
So F. Chuck comes.
Remember, F. Chuck is the same guy when the NBC News Wall Street Journal approval poll came out last week, one week ago today, shows Obama at a record low 40.
F. Chuck didn't talk about that.
F. Chuck talked about how the poll showed that everybody's so mad at Washington and so mad at the Republicans in the House.
He didn't mention Obama's number.
And neither did Ryan Williams.
So this is simply CYA.
And I did see it's in the Politico that F. Chuck is going to get the gig at the end of the year and that Gregory is out and that he's not going to stay at NBC.
He's going to have to go somewhere else.
He'll get hired.
Failures in the news media, that's one of the biggest launching pads you can have to climb the ladder of success.
Liberal media failure guarantees you a prominent new job because they can't afford shame or discredit to be showered upon the industry.
Anyway, appreciate the call.
We'll be back.
We're back, El Rushmo on the cutting edge of societal evolution, having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have.
Remember another thing we were always told while we were in Iraq that we shouldn't be doing any of this because all it was doing was creating more terrorists.
Remember that?
Everything George W. Bush did, it was just a recruiting tool.
Abu Ghraib, recruiting tool, Club Gitmo, recruiting tool, torture, waterboarding, recruiting tool for the bad guys.
That's right, my friends.
Everything we did, everything we did militarily, either in defense of our allies or our own policy, was considered a recruiting tool.
Yes, everything that we were doing was just going to create more terrorists.
This is the argument that Obama and Kerry and Biden and all the rest of these bubs issued to try to convince the American people there was no way we could win militarily.
Our military had no business being over there.
It was out of place.
It was not called for.
It had no hope.
There was no way.
Remember Harry Reid?
This war is lost.
This war is over.
This war.
They were trying to secure defeat.
So they can hang that around George W. Bush's neck.
And so everything that we did, oh man, it's just making the terrorists matter angrier.
Conflict resolution of 101.
And now what?
Here's Obama bombing.
Oh, yeah, indiscriminate bombing attacks on ISIS.
Isn't that going to recruit more terrorists?
I could ask.
Isn't that going to just make the terrorists angrier?
Isn't that just going to quicken their resolve and firm up their resolve and make them want to get even angrier at us?
Isn't that going to make the terrorists really, really ticked off?
Are we not actually recruiting more terrorists by doing all this?
I mean, that's the kind of drivel that we had to put up with for five years from these people.
Damn right, it ticks me off, folks.
It ought to make everybody mad.
We are living an absolute mess because of this stuff.
Washington Post today, editorial.
Actually, it was August the 8th.
I guess it was Saturday and I guess Friday it was.
I don't know.
I've got a calendar right in front.
One of the two days.
Doesn't matter.
Obama's authorization of Iraq airstrikes isn't connected to a coherent strategy.
The Washington Post saying this?
Really?
I don't even need to read the editorial to you.
Headline says it all.
Remember John Kerry?
Anytime bad guys do anything, when are they going to realize that this is the 21st century and this is not the way things are done now?
Blah, blah, blah, blah.
I am Secretary of State and we don't do things this way.
Bang! goes a bullet whizzing by his head.
Washington Post, Obama, authorization of Iraq airstrikes not connected to coherent strategy.
Here's another one.
This is the New York Times.
Fear of another Benghazi drove White House to airstrikes in Iraq.
This is choice.
On Wednesday evening, moments after finishing a summit meeting with African leaders at the Department of State, the chairman of the Chin Joyce of Staff delivered a stark message to President Obama as they rode back to the White House in Obama's limousine.
Oh, by the way, did you hear that's how this happened, by the way?
Obama was convinced to launch airstrikes by the chairman of the Joint Chiefs in a limo ride.
And it was, if we don't do this, we could end up with another Benghazi.
That's exactly right.
Now, this has to be hard for the New York Times to report this because to them, Benghazi is a phony Republican scandal.
What do you mean, another Benghazi?
Darn right, I meant, this is another thing.
How many months have we had to listen to the drive-by media characterize Benghazi as a phony Tea Party scandal, folks?
Nothing to see there.
There wasn't any scandal there.
Four Americans died.
What do you think happens in a war?
Get over it.
It was that video.
We've got the guy in jail.
Screw it.
Been there, done that.
It's over.
But these Republicans, they want to keep it alive for congressional hearings.
It's just a phony scandal.
And here comes the New York Times saying, oh, no, the reason that we're dropping bombs on ISIS is to make sure there's not another phony Republican scandal.
This time in Iraq?
Where are they?
They're shutting up.
These loudmouthed liberals are going to shut up.
They understand unity.
They're not going to undermine.
Hillary is the only one undermining Obama, and that's because she's got grandiose political designs.
Elizabeth Warren does too, but she's so stupid.
She doesn't, I don't think she.
Somebody's going to have to tell her when to go do what, and she'll get in gear.
Somebody will call her from Harvard to faculty lounge, give her a heads up.
Hell, I don't know.
But they're not going to undercut Obama.
This whole party is all about unity, acquiring power, and holding it.
They do not throw each other overboard.
You think, because we will throw one of our people overboard a drop of a hat that they'll do the same thing.
No, and remember, Obama's race is still his race, and it still is a limiting factor, even for Democrats.
But the unity thing is the biggest thing.
But I mean, the New York Times hates using force to maintain peace or stability in the Middle East.
They love Obama.
They said that Benghazi, there's nothing to see here.
It's a phony Republican scandal.
And now, in the New York Times, fear of another Benghazi drove the White House.
It must be really bad if that's the best they can come up with to justify this.
Can you imagine your typical New York Times reader, Benghazi?
What's Benghazi?
You know, they're in Zaybars right now, the Upper West Side.
This one got the New York Times and they read fear of another Benghazi drove White House airstrikes in Iraq.
And all these libs in New York is, Benghazi?
Where's that?
What is that?
They don't know about Benghazi.
The New York Times never reported about Benghazi except as a phony Republican scandal.
So your typical New York Times liberal reader in Manhattan says, wait a minute, fear of another Republican scandal.
And they're probably in Zaybars cursing Republicans for this today.
I can just see it now.
Jeff Greenfield and the gang in Zaybars blaming the Republicans for this because as far as they're concerned, the New York Times said that Benghazi is a phony Republican scandal.
So now we're dropping bombs on Benghazi to prevent another Benghazi?
So Obama has to do this.
Obama has to bomb Iraq to make sure the Republicans don't do another scandal.
Damn Republicans.
They're just, they're horrible.
Are terrible, responsible for everything.
New York Times, typical reader.
What?
Will our bombs hurt civilians?
Will our bombs hurt civilians?
Well, ISIS is like Hamas in that regard.
They hide with civilians, but they hide with them before they kill them.
Will our bombs hurt?
Probably so.
David Gregory, obviously trying to keep his job on Meet the Press, said yesterday in a daily caller, David Gregory slammed Obama on Meet the Press yesterday, claiming that a big, expansive terrorist threat grew on Obama's watch.
Meaning during his presidency, not on his Timex.
They're out there.
David Gregory, maybe for the first time in his life as a journalist, criticized Obama on a day he no doubt heard the rumors that he's out and F. Chuck is in.
So he decided to give the heartland some of what they want to hear.
Blame Obama.
And he did.
He said he slammed Obama.
He said, terrorism has expanded out the wazoo during Obama's presidency.
But the New York Times readers, no, no.
It's not, it's Republicans.
Obama had Obama rock to make sure they don't do another phony scandal like Benghazi was.
You know, ladies and gentlemen, even Andrea Mitchell, NBC News Washington is calling it a farce.
And Obama is blaming bad intel for not knowing how big and bad ISIS had become in Iraq.
Even Andrea Mitchell is calling it a farce.
Do we have Andrea Mitchell?
We do.
Grab somebody.
Here, I want you to play, grab somebody 21, and then we're going to go to number 12.
This is Obama Saturday in front of the helicopter, just desperate to get on board so we can get to the vineyard.
I think that there is no doubt that their advance, their movement over the last several months, has been more rapid than the intelligence estimates and I think the expectations of policymakers in and outside of Iraq.
And part of that is, I think, not a full appreciation of the degree to which the Iraqi security forces, when they're far away from Baghdad, did not have the incentive or the capacity to hold ground against an aggressive adversary.
There's two things.
Let's trash the Iraqis, which in his mind is trashing Bush for not preparing them.
That's trashing Bush.
Make no mistake, that's trashing Bush.
But then, well, I think there's no doubt that their advance ISIS, their movement, more rapid than the Intel estimates.
We weren't allowed to say that when explaining why we didn't find any WMD.
They laughed at, they made fun of, they mocked the whole excuse.
Intelligence estimates were wrong.
Intelligence failure.
That was not permitted.
Now Obama's hanging his hat on it.
And here is Aenrea Mitchell, NBC News Washington, on Meet the Press yesterday with David Gregory, who said the president didn't want to be involved in this political influence game.
He shied away from doing it in Iraq.
Tactically, he's being held hostage to endless negotiations to get Malachi out.
And to decide that you're not going to do anything until you have a government is to wait forever and is to permit ISIS to do what it has done.
And to say that he didn't have intelligence, this is not a hard target.
This is Air Beale.
We have people there.
The fact is there was intelligence.
And to say that they were shocked by the Peshmerga on Saturday night being routed is a farce.
The White House wasn't listening.
We're not used to hearing this.
It's a farce.
They knew.
We have our own people there, David.
We knew what was going on.
We didn't even, until we had people there.
To say they were shocked by Peshmerga on Saturday night being rolled, that's a farce.
White House wasn't listening.
I don't know if it wasn't listening or whatever.
Anyway, back to the phones.
You know what I got to do?
I've got a whole stack.
I have, folks, there's a great program here in the stacks of stuff I haven't gotten to.
You want to hear some headlines?
California, this is such a great story.
I can't wait to get to this.
California debates.

It used to be no means no, but that isn't working out.
It's also not working.

This is the classic.
I can't wait to get to this one UM.

May not get to it all today, but we will.
Here's Tom in Oklahoma City.
Hi, Tom.
Glad you waited.
Great to have you on the program.
Thank you, Russ.
And I want to come back to the Iraqi bombing thing if we could.
I disagree with the Washington Post.
I think there is a strategic vision in place and that the bombing is a part of that.
I think it's a holding action against ISIS to keep them in check until after the November elections.
Because after that, this president doesn't need the base anymore, its gloves off.
I think some, pardon me, I think the chairman of the Joint Chief, knowing this, went in and said, look, they're getting a little further, a little faster.
We're going to have to do something if you're really going to wait till November.
And so these bombings are, under the guise of humanitarian effort, are to keep ISIS in check until we can do the real work.
And I think there's been kind of some hints at that.
Well, what is the real work?
After November, when you say that all bets are off, what do you mean?
What's going to happen?
Boots on the ground.
Boots on the ground.
Oh, you think Obama will recommit to another invasion in Iraq after the election?
I do.
And here's why I say that.
If you take out your Bill Clinton parsing tool and you apply it to the statements he's made over and over about this, he's saying that, look, I can't do anything while there is not an inclusive government in place that respects both the Sunnis and Shiites.
But when they have that, then we can provide all of the supports necessary.
Interesting.
I've got to take a time.
I literally have no more seguntos.
We got to go.
In my opinion, I don't think Obama will ever put boots on the ground in Iraq.
I don't think he cares about Iraq.
He could have wiped ISIS out a year ago if he really cared about all this.
