Time Text
The views expressed by the host in this program documented to be almost always right 99.7% of the time.
It is the one and only Excellence in Broadcasting Network.
And Rushlin Baugh at 800-282-2882.
That's if you want to be on the program.
If you want to send an email, it's L. Rushbo at EIBnet.com.
I just, folks, let's review something here as we try to keep some things in perspective.
We had a caller a moment ago who asked me to be careful in talking about a landslide because he's, what if it isn't?
Oh, no, it's horrible.
And even if we win, what if we won?
Because McConnell and Boehner are worthless.
McConnell and Baylor and Boehner, they're no different than Obama.
They're not going to try to stop Obama.
They're just going to try to be placeholders for a while, maybe help get immigration.
What's it going to do?
And I said to him, they're not Obama.
Now, if anybody wants to disagree with me and have at it, if there's no difference, then you may as well do what you can to punish them if that's what you want to do.
If that's your modus operandi, go ahead and keep Democrats in power.
I don't know what to tell you.
None of us control what Boehner do.
None of us control what McConnell does.
We know they're not conservatives.
We know they try to convince people they are whenever they think it's useful, but we know they're not conservatives.
I do not think that it's the end of the Tea Party, by the way, if the Republicans win.
I know a lot of people do.
I can't tell you why.
It's just a gut feeling.
I don't have any brilliant on-site analysis to why it's not the end of the Tea Party, but I don't think it is.
The Tea Party is comprised of too many people that care too much.
All I know is that the Democrats running for reelection are running as far away from Barack Obama as they can.
They have run as far away from Obama as possible.
They have denied voting for him.
They claim they never supported his policies.
Yet we're told this isn't an election about Obama and his policies, and it clearly is.
We have people trying to tell us it's an election about incumbents.
The voters are simply fed up with incumbents and want all of them gone.
And that analysis is done to protect Obama.
But the Democrat Party is telling us how toxic Obama is.
Even in the Washington Post today, where did Obama go wrong?
And one of the things that they're worried about here is he just, he's got a terrible hand dealt to him by the world.
It's just ISIS and all this stuff in Iraq and Afghanistan.
It's more than any president should have to put up with.
It isn't fair.
He was dealt such a bad hand by the world.
What do you mean, dealt a bad hand?
He told everybody he was going to heal the world.
He told everybody the world was going to love America once he was elected.
He wasn't going to even do anything.
He got the Nobel Peace Prize for showing up.
He didn't have to do anything to get the Nobel Peace Prize.
This was a guy that was elected totally on the come.
And all he has done is wreak havoc.
And while every Democrat on the ballot is doing their best to convince voters they have nothing to do with Obama, they won't even admit, some won't admit voting for him.
They're all running away from him.
None of them want him in town to campaign for them.
At the same time, he's out there getting back at them by saying, hey, these are my buddies.
They voted for every one of my policies.
They made what I'm doing possible.
All is not well on the Democrat side of the aisle.
Now, as to Obamacare, there are individual candidates running ads and so forth in their campaigns, telling voters that their intention is to do what they can to repeal it.
I don't know whether they mean it or not.
I don't know whether they're out there just saying this because the voters want to hear it.
McConnell is all over the place on repealing Obamacare.
One time he said he was going to.
Recently, he said, we can't.
We're going to need 60 votes.
And even if we get 60 votes, the president's going to veto whatever we do.
There's no way.
So what we can do is cherry pick, maybe get rid of this or that, maybe little bits of the bill, and then send that up to him.
But the fact they don't need 60 votes.
Obamacare happened via budget reconciliation.
They had to play all kinds of tricks to get Obama passed.
Obamacare passed was one of the biggest sights of hand that we've ever seen.
I think it would be truly ironic to repeal Obamacare via budget reconciliation.
You only need 51 votes for that.
You don't need 60 votes for that.
So that was passed in the first place.
It wasn't passed with 60 votes.
They had to play all kinds of games.
They lied to people like Bart Stupak and all kinds.
Now, whether McConnell's going to do it, I haven't slightest idea.
All I know is, and please forgive me if this offends anybody.
I'm not speaking to anybody here.
But I don't like to go through every day perpetually pissed off.
I don't like living that way.
I don't like living perpetually in a depression.
I don't like living fatalistically.
I just don't.
I am always going to try to find the positive, and I'm not going to lie to myself about it, but I'm always going to try to enjoy it.
We only get one life, and I don't intend to live it mad at everybody all the time.
I don't intend to live it fatalistically.
I don't intend to live my life telling myself what I believe never has a chance.
I'm not going to do that.
Sorry, I'm not speaking to anybody specifically.
I'm not reacting to a caller or anything.
I'm just sharing a little bit about me with you.
I am the mayor of Rioville.
A phrase that has become a cliché is something I profoundly believe in.
It is what it is.
And I don't pretend that things aren't the way they are and that they are the way I wish they were, but I try to make them that way if they aren't.
I know Mitch McConnell is a sad disappointment to people.
I know Boehner is a disappointment, but we know who the Republican establishment is.
We know what the Washington establishment is.
And it's into self-preservation.
They don't want limited government.
They feed off of it.
It needs to be as big as possible for everybody in that town.
There's no way anybody living and working in that town, there are a few exceptions, of course, but I'm talking about the establishment.
They all derive everything meaningful in their lives, personally and professionally, from how big government is, how massive it is, how far its tentacles reach.
That's how they all survive.
Any talk of shrinking it and reducing its size and getting it out of people's lives is the same thing as them being threatened with being fired and having their livelihood taken away.
They're not going to support it.
They're going to have to be beaten.
They can't be reasoned with.
They can't be persuaded.
It's like the media.
We're never going to convince them that they're wrong.
We're never going to convince them to be fair to us.
Those are just some realities.
I mean, my wife has told me that.
This is, I know some of you are new and getting into this and you're holding out hope.
And I think I'm not trying to be a downer about any of this.
I just believe in accepting what is and dealing with it as best we can at the time.
I see Democrats running away from Barack Obama.
I see a giant Republican mandate.
But as I've been saying, I don't know that they even want it.
If you'll check the archives of this program, you will find me saying in the recent months that have passed that I have said, I'm not even sure the Republicans want to win control at Congress because that carries with it responsibility they may not want with an African-American president in office.
They may forever feel powerless and their hands tied no matter what because of that single fact.
That that's something they can't win or overcome simply by virtue of our culture and the way it is.
I have no way of knowing.
I'm like you.
I have to guess.
The only thing I know for sure is that people who live, breathe, their total existence depends on big government, are never going to stand for anything that reduces its size.
Therefore, there is no compromise with them.
There is no persuading them.
All there is left to do is to defeat them.
And I don't think at the same time, voting Democrat or voting libertarian in order to teach a lesson, send a message, accomplishes anything other than perpetuating the status quo, which is something we all oppose.
If I thought there were no difference in Republicans and Democrats, I'd be the first to tell you.
If I thought that, I'd tell you, furthermore, I don't think it matters whether you vote.
If that's what I really believe, that's what I would tell you.
But I don't think that at all.
I think the American people are telling everybody and are going to tell everybody at the end of the day what they want.
That's what elections do.
That's why sometimes when you lose them, you get really depressed because you think you've lost the American people.
But it's clear the Democratic Party doesn't even want to be around this guy at the moment of truth.
The people of this country who vote today are going to vote.
Maybe it is partially anti-incumbent, but why is it anti-incumbent?
Who's running everything?
As far as any ordinary American citizen is concerned, who's running this country?
It clearly isn't McConnell.
It's not Boehner.
It's Obama.
So even if it is an anti-incumbent vote, it's an anti-Obama vote.
It's an anti-Harry Reid, anti-Democrat vote.
They may not know the names of Harry Reid or Pelosi.
They know Obama.
Poll after poll after poll shows how fed up with the direction this country is going people are.
Poll after poll after poll shows how disappointed and opposed the direction this country is going people are.
I believe that's real.
I believe it may be more real than the polling data we're seeing indicates.
And I believe, therefore, that the people who show up and vote today are voting for one thing to stop it.
I don't think people want to lose their country.
I don't think they want their country transformed.
I don't think people who are engaged and paying attention have the slightest desire for any more of this to happen.
And they're going to be doing the only thing they know how to do to stop it, and that's vote against who's in power.
The Republicans, we have to admit, they don't have an agenda.
They haven't told people what they're going to do in a national message of any kind.
So the vote is totally anti-today.
It's a protest vote.
The danger of this is, As again, we've been talking about, don't forget we had eight years of what many of us believe was the greatest lesson citizens could have about conservatism versus liberalism.
It's the 80s and Reagan.
And yet, wasn't long that they decided, you know what, it's safe to go back to the Democrat Party, even after those eight years of prosperity that we hadn't seen in 20 or 30 years prior.
Abundance everywhere.
The Berlin Wall came down.
American dominance and prominence everywhere.
Eight years of Ronald Reagan.
And four years after that, what'd the voters do?
Write back to Bill Clinton.
Why?
Because it was perceived the economy was in a tank.
Worst economy in the last 50 years, they were running around saying, but it wasn't.
But people thought for some reason it was safe to go back to the Democrats.
I guess.
I don't know.
It frustrates me that people don't learn from living through success what they have to do to perpetuate it, i.e. vote conservative.
I'm as frustrated by that as you are.
I don't know what to do about it.
All I know is this is going to be one of those times which is an opportunity.
The people are going to show up and once again express their total opposition to what's happening now.
It's an opportunity.
And that's where I think the Republican mandate comes from.
This is a mandate.
They're going to have a bigger mandate than they realize, maybe a bigger mandate than they want.
And my eyes are going to be all over them.
The American people, if all of this pre-election hype, if all the polls, if all this stuff we're hearing, if it turns out to be right, this is a catastrophe, even if it's not a catastrophe loss, even if it's just a big loss, it's still going to be a loss.
And it's still going to be people saying they want this stopped.
And that is why the Republicans are going to end up winning.
They're not going to win it because of immigration.
They're not going to win it for the Chamber of Commerce.
They're not going to win it for whatever they're going to win it for.
They're going to win it because the American people want somebody to stop this.
Now, if they don't pick up that ball and run with it, I can't tell you beyond that.
But that's what the election is going to mean to me.
And that's how I'm going to analyze it because that's what I think it means.
And therefore, to me, it's going to be pressure.
There's going to be pressure on the Republican Party to do the bidding of the American people who want this stopped.
It may be pressure the Republican Party doesn't want.
I don't know.
But it's still going to be there.
People expect their vote to mean something.
They expect their vote to matter, particularly now.
And it's going to carry all the way to 2016.
The expectations are going to carry through right to 2016 as well.
Repealing Obamacare would be really hard because the guy whose name is on it is sitting up on Pennsylvania Avenue and he's going to veto any effort to make it happen.
And even if he would veto, even if it does, he's still got executive orders.
He can do whatever he wants to do whenever he wants to because he doesn't care about the Constitution.
That's a whole nother matter, too, what these next two years portend, no matter who wins this today or tonight.
But the Republicans have signaled to Obama that they're not going to stop him.
When they took impeachment off the table, they signaled that they're not going to stop him.
So what is to stop him?
The honor system?
Reverence and respect for the Constitution?
That doesn't exist.
These are tough times.
But I don't know if there's nothing in my makeup that says vote for the guys creating the problems or do anything that keeps them in power.
You have to start somewhere.
And if that means stopping what's happening, then that's the objective that has to take place.
Yeah, look, I can't give you substantive ABCD ENFG reasons for my optimism.
It's just the way I am.
And I'll admit there's a little, I want to be optimistic.
I want for there to be good things to happen.
This is our country.
I want good things to happen for everybody.
That's what we conservatives want.
We love everybody.
We want the best for everybody.
We want them to be able to procure the best for themselves.
Anyway, I got to take a break here.
I'm up against it on time.
Sit tight, my friends.
We'll be back, and you can have at me all you want when we get back.
By the way, I think I'm going to end up being proven right about my predictions regarding a national football league as well.
It's all in the New York Times today with audio soundbites mentioning me that confirm I might have a point.
New York Times, all that coming up.
It was the LA Times, by the way.
I finally found the website.
I didn't tell you what the story was because I didn't want to get there in case it was some kook oddball website that I didn't want to associate myself with.
Let me know.
What did I do with this?
Yeah, just how bad is your dog for the environment?
Your dog's poop is the next thing that's destroying the planet.
Do you know that your dog per pound of body weight produces 10 times the fecal matter of a cow?
Therefore, your dog poses a greater threat to global warming than even cattle.
A lot of people are not dog fanatics, but many people are.
And many of them are liberals.
Many liberal women, their number one companions, a German shepherd, escorting them through airports and making sure predator guys do not even talk to them.
I've seen it in Humboldt County.
Did I ever see it in Humboldt County?
That's where Earth first was.
Spotted Owl and all that stuff.
At any rate, what I'm wondering about now, men have a lot of leftists, a lot of them, to whom their dog is more human than their spouse.
And here come the global warming people now blaming it all on the family pooch.
And I'm wondering maybe if the wackos have crossed a bridge too far on this one, as desperate as they are getting to perpetuate this hoax.
Also, I don't know if you know about this or not, but we've got a caller coming up on it.
I'm not going to get into details.
I'm just going to tell you what's coming up.
There's a story in USA today, marijuana profits up in smoke under IRS rules.
And it turns out that people that own marijuana stores, if they don't grow their own, if they sell marijuana, where it's legal, sold by people, other people, if they sell stuff they didn't produce, they are facing IRS tax rates of 80 to 90%.
Now, you can imagine they don't know this yet.
It's going to hit them on April 15th when they have to file, or whenever they file next year prior to April 15th.
And the IRS and the feds are salivating over this brand new source of revenue.
And the tax rate's looking like 80 to 90% now on all of these marijuana types.
And you know what political party they vote for for the most part.
No, no, I'm here.
just waiting for the printer to spit out the latest print job, lickety split like it's known to.
Rush Limbaugh, the EIB network.
Okay, for those of you who are a little project here, another go at this.
For those of you who are unsure for whom to vote, I want you to do something.
I really want you to do something.
For those of you who think that Republicans winning is not going to help because the guys are worthless, I want you to do something.
If you purchase your own health insurance, I want you to call your insurance company today.
I want you to ask them what your premium will be next year.
The reason I want you to do this is because the Obama administration has ordered insurance companies not to announce this until after the election.
Yes, I'm telling the truth.
Of course, I'm not lying about that and making that up.
I don't lie anyway.
The administration has asked, slashed, ordered insurance companies to keep their price structures for next year quiet until after the election.
That's why I want you to call and find out what your premium is going to be next year.
You will discover that the government hasn't told insurance companies what the rates are as of yet.
The government's in charge of what these rates are going to be.
And the government hasn't told the insurance companies what the rates are going to be because they don't want you knowing the answer to that question before the election, which is today.
So what you're going to hear if you call your insurance company, they might say we're not allowed to tell you on orders of the government.
If they don't say that, they'll probably tell you to expect a 10 to 15 percent increase over whatever your premium is now.
If you were going to save money, if your premium was going to come down $2,500 like Obama promised, do you think you'd know that today?
Do you think if your health insurance costs were going to be less next year because of Obamacare, do you think you would have known that before today, before the election?
Do you think the regime and the Democrat Party and the media would have told you that?
They haven't told you that, have they?
Why?
Because health insurance premiums are going to skyrocket next year precisely because of Obamacare.
And that information is being purposely kept from you.
Now, I am not carrying water for the Republican Party, but I'm here to tell you they have nothing to do with that other than they haven't repealed it.
But the Republican Party, there's not one Republican vote you can find for Obamacare.
Not the vote that made it pass and sent up to the White House for Obama's signature.
There's not one Republican vote on Obamacare.
They are not responsible for it.
The only thing you can say is they've been half-assed about repealing it.
And you wouldn't be wrong.
But they didn't make it happen.
And they did a lot to try to stop it, in fact.
But they were powerless.
They didn't have the numbers.
In the first two years, they didn't have the numbers anywhere to stop anything.
That's why everything that's happened in this country is directly relatable, traceable to one place, the Oval Office.
And maybe the Harry Reid's office and maybe Pelosi's office.
We are living in the world the Democrat Party wants for us, and it is worsening.
We are living the circumstances of the Democrat Party and their policy preferences, and it is worsening.
None of this was brought about by the Republicans.
What they didn't do was work hard enough to stop it.
But the first two years, they didn't have the numbers to stop it anyway, no matter what they did.
And in the first two years, everybody was still thinking Obama was a messiah and still living the lie and believing the lie that all he intended for was utopia.
So you call your insurance company and you ask them what your premium is going to be.
If you buy your own health insurance, ask them what the premium is going to be next year.
Call for yourself.
Ask questions.
Get answers.
Think about paying your bills.
Think about what was promised.
Think about all of the lies told to you about your health care.
Keep your doctor, keep your plan, if you like it, gone.
$2,500 premium reduction promised how many times?
23 times?
Not going to happen.
Your premium is going to skyrocket.
Everybody's are.
Except for the schlubs.
You're going to be subsidized by all the rest of us.
But you're going to have to make that call to find out because the regime hasn't told the insurance companies what their premiums next year can be yet.
They are in charge of that now.
But remember, if your premiums, if your health care costs, if you're out of pocket, if you're deductible, if any of it was going to be less, you would know.
They would have been promoting that, touting that, so that it would affect your vote today.
The fact that you haven't had a word told to you by the Democrats with Obamacare ought to scare the hell out of you.
Because that means what's coming is something you don't want.
I've been looking at polling data every day.
Direction of the country polls.
And it's been like this just as recently as October 21st.
October 21st, 63.7% oppose the direction of the country.
Think we're headed the wrong way.
October 23rd, 64.6% think the country's heading the wrong way.
October 24th, 65%.
Actually, 66%, 65.8 think we're heading the wrong direction, and that number held today.
Two-thirds of the people of this country, two-thirds of Americans think this country is going the wrong way.
And in case you don't know, the Democrats are responsible for the direction this country is headed.
The Democrat Party is in charge of the policies that are passed and implemented and put into place that affect lives in this country.
The Democrat Party alone is singularly responsible for the direction the country is headed.
Now, you might say, well, the Republicans helped out all his spending during the Bush years, and I wouldn't disagree with you.
But nothing that happened in the Bush years even compares with what is happening the six years of Obama in terms of the loss of individual liberty and freedom and the threat to lose even more.
No comparison.
And I'm not carrying anybody's water here.
I'm just trying to answer questions I know you've got on the phone that you've been.
You've been peppering me with them for the past three days.
So I think I know what's on your mind.
Right direction, wrong track.
27.8% think we're headed in the right direction.
66% think we're headed in the wrong direction.
You are not alone in thinking things have gone to hell.
And there's one political party that is responsible for it.
And everybody knows which party it is, whether they like it or not, whether they like the direction we're going or not.
Everybody knows.
Barack Obama is running this country.
The vote today is going to be a message from voters to stop the direction the country is headed.
That is going to be a responsibility the Republicans need to recognize they have by being the recipients of winning votes in this election.
And I'm like you.
I don't know if they're up to it.
I don't know if they want it.
I just hope and pray that something will happen, that they'll accept the responsibility and do something about it.
And that they too will realize.
One of the things that's been most frustrating to me, folks.
Do you want to talk about frustrations?
One of the most frustrating things to me is how in the world the political class, the elites, the established, whatever you want to call them, in Washington do not think the country's in crisis.
That's probably one of the dividing lines or big dividing points.
Whether you're Tea Party or not, 68%, two-thirds of the people of this country think we're headed in the wrong direction and we are in a crisis when it comes to financial, economic, and personal freedom.
And in Washington, they don't.
But you see, in Washington, their pie is not the United States economy.
Their pie is the federal government and the U.S. Treasury.
You and I, our pie is the economy.
Where we go to get our piece of that pie is the United States economy.
Where everybody in Washington goes to get their piece of the pie is the U.S. Treasury.
And the Treasury's not in crisis.
They've got money pouring in like they've never seen before.
The government's getting bigger and bigger and getting more powerful.
What is there to think is wrong if you believe and live off government?
That's what really frustrates me.
That we've got a country in crisis careening out of control with great negative consequences for the people who make this country work.
The people who make this country work are not in Washington.
People who make this country work are you and everybody like you out there.
They don't see a crisis for you because they don't see a crisis for themselves other than maybe losing an election, but that's it.
They think people that think the country's in crisis are a little crazy, a little kooky, conspiracy nuts, or what have you.
To you, it's real.
And you've got the life experience to prove it.
Your kids have college debt to prove it.
Your college graduate kids living with you with no job prospects, no career prospects.
Yeah, that's real.
But after our esteemed elected officials do their duty in Washington, there are fat jobs for them elsewhere among those who've donated money to them when they leave.
As long as they do the right thing while they're there.
No question that's what we're all up against.
Anyway, I intended to get the phone calls in this segment.
I didn't intend for this monologue to go that long, but it got so good, I said, why stop?
But I promise we'll come back and we'll get to the phones when we do.
So don't go away, folks.
Okay, and as I said, it's back to the phones.
This is Kennon Prosper, Texas.
Welcome, sir, to the EIB Network.
Hi, Rush.
It's an honor to talk to you.
Thank you, sir.
I love your show, and thanks for playing a role in educating the uninformed.
Thank you, sir, very much.
We try.
I'm a Tea Party patriot, educated, informed, engaged.
Your age, I might add.
And you could have knocked me over with a feather when I heard Aubrey's comments yesterday about Tea Party patriots.
His mindset was stunning, and his claims that Tea Party patriots are loons and disruptive is flat out wrong.
You know, we believe in the Constitution, property rights, states' rights, limited government, and our objective is to improve the Republican Party through conservative candidates that are true to our simple values.
We're not radical.
We're not disruptive.
We're tired of politicians that say one thing and do another.
Yep.
We support substance over gloss.
Right.
My old boss said that once.
Great statement.
Symbolism over substance.
Symbolism over gloss.
Exactly right.
We support small, efficient government that does a few core responsibilities right, and we do not support the nanny state that many in Washington advocate.
I'd like to comment on Aubrey's two main concerns he expressed yesterday, if that's okay with you.
Sure, but I can tell you why Aubrey said what he said.
I can tell you why anybody who, on supposed Republican, why they ripped the Tea Party, I can tell you why.
But I want to hear what you say.
So you fire away.
You're doing great.
His first concern was they pursue candidates that are goofy and can't win.
We want government leaders that believe in our core principles, follow the Constitution, and are committed to limited but effective government.
We don't want wishy-washy politicians that only want to perpetuate Washington power and big government.
How's that?
Right on the money.
The problem is people like that end up being portrayed as kooks by the media and by Republican fundraisers.
And the establishment.
Same difference, yes.
Yeah.
But that's not why Aubrey doesn't like you.
All right.
Well, how about my second concern?
Let's hear your second concern.
When they don't get their ideal candidate running for office, they stay home and don't vote.
What do you think of that one?
You mean his allegation about Tea Party people, you don't get enough candidates, you stay home.
I think it's the other way around.
I think it's when the establishment, I think we end up supporting their candidates left and right when ours lose.
They ask us.
They demand us.
They make the claim party unity.
But when our people do win, they are undermined by the very people that demand we support them.
That's true.
You know, I agree with you 100%.
We've got to stop the decline of this country.
You know, we've experienced 50 years of liberal ideology, and we know it doesn't work.
Their solutions have failed.
And we've got to change course if we want America to experience another 240 years, like the first 240 years.
Right.
Exactly right.
Okay, but so McConnell and Boehner are not the guys to do that.
So what are you going to do?
As a Tea Party patriot, what are you going to do?
Well, a lot of my efforts are directed at the local level, you know, the town and the county.
You know, I do a lot of writing.
I do a lot of phone calls.
I've been down to Austin a couple of times, you know, peppering the politicians.
That's really about all we can do other than go out and vote.
It's a long road.
What you're saying, you are playing the long game and you're starting local.
You're starting in, quota, for lack of a better term, as an analogy, the minor leagues, and you're trying to prepare people for the big leagues is what you're doing with the long game in mind.
You're not looking at reducing 50 years or reversing 50 years of liberalism in one election because you know it can't be done.
But let me tell you, because time is dwindling, let me tell you why Aubrey said what he said about you, our caller from yesterday, and why there were a couple other people yesterday too that were maligning Tea Party people.
I'll tell you exactly why.
It's because the media maligns you and that embarrasses them.
These are people and they're everywhere.
I've told you about the time I walked out of my own dinner party.
You remember this story?
In a fit of rage, I walked out of my own dinner party when I had a couple of guests tell me we had to get rid of Sarah Palin because the media had destroyed her.
I say, is that it?
It's that the media is going to pick our candidates for us.
And if the media criticizes and mocks and makes fun of some of our people, you want to throw them aside?
Yep, we can't win once the media gets going.
I'm telling you, Ken, when the media starts mocking Tea Party people, people like Aubrey don't want the media doing that.
They want the media loving and respecting us.
And if they're making fun, we've got to get rid of the people the media is making fun of.
So the media will stop it.
That's reason number one.
It's all PR buzz and image.
And they want to feel good about themselves.
And to them, that's defined by the media not making fun of them.
We'll be back.
When we get back, we'll delve into the has nothing to do with the election stack or has little to do with the election stack.
There's some interesting stuff in there, including about me, your beloved host.
