Time Text
Saying what I believe and loving hearing myself say it.
Rush Limbaugh, the EIB network and Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
Great to have you here, my friends.
The telephone number, if you want to be on the program, is 800-282-2882.
Household name in all four corners of the world.
Ladies and gentlemen, knowing what we know now, should George Stephanopoulos have been allowed to moderate a Republican presidential debate.
Knowing what we know now, should Candy Crowley, CNN, have been allowed to moderate a presidential debate?
Knowing what we know now, should Barack Obama have backed the overthrow of Mubarak in Egypt and helped to overthrow Muammar Gaddafi in Libya?
Knowing what we know now, should Obama have signed Obamacare?
Knowing what we know now, would you have signed Obamacare?
Knowing what we know now, would you have done the stimulus deal, which was nothing more than a payoff to union workers to keep them employed so their dues could continue to flow into democratic campaign coffers?
Knowing what you know now, would you have supported Obama's stimulus effort in general?
Knowing what you know now, would you have allowed the southern border to be overflowing with illegal people from all over the world?
Knowing what you know now, would you have signed on to any of the Obama agenda?
I mean, this is this idea that the Republican candidates have some important question to answer.
Knowing what you know now, would you have gone into Iraq?
As I said in the opening hour of the program, that is not a question that's designed to learn what any of these guys think.
It is not a question designed to learn whether they're competent or qualified to be president.
Knowing what you know now, would you have supported George Bush?
Should George Bush have gone into Iraq, knowing what you know now, all of these questions, the purpose of these questions is gotcha.
The media and the Democrat Party, and again bouncing off this Washington Post Hillary story, have convinced themselves that everybody in this country is now opposed to the Iraq war.
That everybody in this country is fine and dandy with what's happened in the Middle East since the Iraq War, because we shouldn't have gone.
They really believe the vast majority of the country think exactly as they do on this subject.
And so these are entrapment questions.
And they're being asked of Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio and any number of other Republican presidential candidates.
Some sound bites of how this goes.
Sunday morning, Fox News Sunday, Chris Wallace talking to Marco Rubio, talking about the Iraq war.
And by the way, Ramadi has fallen.
Knowing what we know now, do you support Barack Obama's decision to totally withdraw from Iraq and leave it wide open to Al-Qaeda, ISIS, or whoever?
These questions that I'm asking as alternatives will never be asked of any Democrat candidate.
Hillary Clinton will never get one of these.
Knowing what you know now, would you have done the stimulus?
Knowing what you know now, would you have signed Obamacare and supported it?
Knowing those questions will not be forthcoming, because as far as the Democrats and the media is concerned, everybody loves Obama.
Everybody loves what he's done.
Knowing what you know now, would you have supported Obama's efforts to allow Iran to eventually acquire a nuclear weapon?
Chris Wallace says DeMarco Rubio, this brings us back to Iraq and the question of the week, which is given what we know now, would you have invaded Iraq back in 2003?
Now, as we all know, Jeb Bush had a tough time answering that this week.
Senator, isn't that a flip?
Six weeks ago it was it made sense to evade uh Iraq in 2003 and now you say it was a mistake?
No, the two different questions.
It was not a mistake.
The president, based on this is the way the real world works, the president based on the information that was provided.
But she was saying based on the information.
She was saying based on the what we know now.
Well, based on what we know now, a lot of them based on what we know now, I wouldn't have to do that.
You would ask the same question and you said it was a question.
No, it's not the same question.
The question was whether it was a mistake.
And my answer is it's not a mistake.
I still say it was not a mistake.
Because the president was presented with intelligence that said Iraq had weapons of mass destruction.
It was governed by a man who had committed atrocities in the past with weapons of mass destruction.
It was not a mistake given the fact that what the president knew at the time.
Wallace then said, but the reporter didn't say that.
She just said, was it a mistake?
That's not the same question.
The question I was asked is what you know now.
Well, based on what we know now, I think everyone agrees.
Wasn't a mistake.
Was it a mistake to go to war with Iraq?
Yeah, I understand, but that's not the same question.
But I'm asking but that's a question I'm asking you.
Was it a mistake to do that?
It was not a mistake for the president to decide to go into Iraq because at the time he was a very strong.
In hindsight.
Yeah, the world is a better place because Saddam Hussein is not there.
So wasn't a mistake.
But I don't understand the question you're asking.
I'm asking you to be able to do that.
Knowing every as we sit here in 2013, but that's not the way presidents don't A President can't be able to do that.
That's what I'm asking you.
Was it a mistake?
It was not a mistake for the President to go into Iraq based on the information he was provided as president.
Okay, so what do you think of this, folks?
You know what this reminds me of?
It was a Bush press conference.
I don't remember.
Probably first term, and I don't remember about it was what it was about.
But every question, every question in this press conference, 45 minutes.
Do you have you made any mistakes, Mr. Will you admit to any mistakes?
Mr. President, do you think it was a mistake too?
Blah, blah, blah.
Mr. President, have you ever committed a mistake?
Was, for example, doing XYZ mistake?
For 40, you remember this press conference?
For 45 minutes.
That was a town hall debate?
Yeah, well, not maybe.
But what I'm thinking of, it may have been a primetime press conference, but I'm telling you, 45 minutes.
And Bush would never admit to making a mistake.
He knew what was up here.
If he would have admitted making a mistake, that would have been the whole news for the rest of the year.
Bush admits he screwed up on everything, they would have said.
That was the whole point of it.
And even when he wouldn't answer to come on, everybody makes mistakes, Mr. President.
We make them.
Don't you there's not one thing that you think you've made a mistake on?
They gave every every shot they had, every which way of asking the question.
That's all it was for 45 minutes.
And they're doing it, and you and these questions are never asked of Democrats.
Never knowing what you know now.
Knowing what you know now, would you have thought the war on poverty a good thing in 1964?
Knowing what you know now, would you have urged President Reagan to sign Simpson Mazzoli in 1986?
These are pointless questions unless the objective has nothing to do with actually learning how our presidential candidate thinks.
And of course, that's not the purpose of any interview.
I'm here to tell you that when a Republican can, particularly a Republican presidential candidates interviewed, whoever in the drive-by media is doing the questions, is not trying to learn anything.
A, they don't think they need to.
They already know it.
What they're trying to do is gotcha.
What they're trying to do is trip the Republican candidate up.
And I think the real question is knowing what we know now.
Would you answer any question that begins with knowing what we know now?
That to me is the lesson learned.
Any question it begins with, knowing what you know now, you put your hands up, nope, not going there.
I don't believe in if.
If is for children.
Besides, presidents don't have this luxury.
In the real world, you don't have the luxury of sitting around and wringing your hands.
Gee, man, if I'd oh God, if I'd only known that, because you don't know, obviously you didn't know that.
What is this if you knew then what you know now?
But we didn't know then.
But I've watched this.
You know, the left, I've been reading some leftist blogs and websites, and they have they're on the way to making the case now that every intelligence agency knew that Saddam did not have nukes and was trying to tell Cheney and Bush, but that Cheney and Bush didn't want to hear it because they wanted to get Saddam for reasons that had nothing to do with the war on terror or 9-11.
And that is a meme.
That is a narrative.
Keep a sharp eye, because that narrative is picking up speed.
Now the truth is that every allied intelligence agency that we dealt with, the Brits, the Pakistan, you name it, everyone that was on our side that we dealt with in the war on terror, all confirmed the same intelligence that the DIA had, and that the CIA had, and everybody else in this country that, and then the NSA, that Saddam had weapons of mass destruction.
But now what's developing is hey, you know, Saddam, he was he never had weapons of mass destruction, and he knew it.
He was just trying to huff and puff and scare the Iranians.
He just wanted the Iranians to think he had them.
And he loved to be in the big Arab strong man to stand up against the United States.
That's what got him respect.
But everybody knew he didn't have weapons of mass destruction.
He knew he didn't have.
The Iranians knew.
And all these intelligence agencies.
They knew he didn't have weapons.
And they tried to warn it was Maureen Dowd yesterday where I read this.
That's where it was Maureen Dowd.
So they've done a 180.
Every intelligence agency knew it was a joke, but Bush and Cheney wouldn't listen.
Well, how is any of this going to defeat ISIS?
That's not the point of ISIS.
The point of ISIS is that it can be traced back to Bush.
That's all this is poor.
ISIS is solely wholly owned subsidiary of Barack Obama foreign policy.
Can't have that.
Well, we can't have that stand.
We can't have the idea that Obama's foreign policy has made the world a dangerous place.
We can't have it believed that Barack Obama is incompetent in the area for it.
We can't have any of that believed.
And so we have to construct these brand new false narratives and templates that ISIS, like Maureen Downs said, yeah, Jeb Bush was taken to school by a 19-year-old college girl last week who told him the way it is, that because we went into Iraq and went after something that wasn't there, ISIS came into being or whatever.
So Jeb Bush was made to look like a fool by a 19-year-old college student.
That's the that's the narrative that they want out there.
But you just keep a sharp eye.
Because this is bubbling up.
And as long as these Iraq questions continue to be asked, eventually everybody is going to see it.
It's not going to be remain cloistered within the Democrat bubble.
It's going to bubble up and it won't be long.
Because the truth of the matter is that every intelligence agency that we trusted was agreeing with us.
And of course, Maureen Dowd went and talked to uh Lieutenant Colonel Lawrence.
Colin Powell's chief of staff, I can't remember his name.
Uh Lawrence.
It doesn't matter.
He is also in this chorus that Saddam never had WMD and that everybody knew it.
Of course, his job is to protect Colin Powell.
And Colin Powell is still bitter over the fact that he was sent to the UN with all the proof.
The pictures, Colin Powell had to go up there and make the case as we're trying to put together the coalition.
And he has never lived it down, I don't think.
When there are no weapons of mass destruction, Colin Powell.
I that's it, Lawrence Wilkerson.
I think Powell thinks he was made a fool of and has resented it ever since, blames Cheney for it.
And that helps this narrative that they have given birth to that the intelligence agencies, I mean, MI5, MI-6, Scott, I mean, you name it.
They all knew Saddam didn't have weapons, and they were all begging Bush not to go.
They were begging Bush, but he couldn't talk Cheney out of it.
That is the narrative.
And that's why these questions keep coming in.
There's one more here with Chris Wallace and uh and and Rubio final exchange.
If the president had known that there were no weapons of mass destruction at the time, you still would have had to deal with Saddam Hussein, but the process would have been different.
I doubt very seriously that the president would have gotten, for example, congressional approval to move forward with an invasion had they known there were no weapons of mass destruction.
That does not mean he made the wrong decision.
Because at the time he was presented with intelligence.
I understand that.
That said there are weapons of mass destruction.
He wasn't dealing with a Nobel Peace Prize winner.
He was dealing with Saddam Hussein, and he made the right decision based on the information he had at that time.
We've learned subsequently that that information was wrong.
And my answer was, well, if at the time it would have been apparent that the intelligence was wrong, I don't think George Bush would have moved forward on the invasion, and he certainly wouldn't have had congressional approval.
See, that's it right there.
They're trying to construct the scenario that George Bush knew.
That there were no WMD and went anyway.
That's what they're in the process of trying to create now, folks, right in time for the 2016 presidential campaign, because the bottom line is when it comes to Hillary Clinton, there's not much you can do to build her up.
You have to destroy her opponent in order for her to win.
You can't build her up.
There's no there.
Hillary Clinton is is is on her own is a walking disaster waiting to happen.
They have got to destroy and discredit every opponent that she might end up facing.
And recasting this whole meme on Iraq is part of it.
And it's what the Democrats are known for.
They always live in the past.
They always do this revision of history.
And nowhere in all of these questions that you hear of Rubio or Jeb Bush, there is no mention that Hillary Clinton eagerly supported Bush in the war in Iraq.
Nowhere is it mentioned that the Democrats in the Senate asked for a second vote once they found out public opinion supported the war in Iraq.
Nowhere is that mentioned.
What you're supposed to think is that every Democrat, Hillary, John Kerry Obama, all of them opposed it, and Bush did it anyway, even though he knew there were no WMD.
Truth is, we thought there was WMD.
Intelligence agencies all over the world told us, and every Democrat wanted to be seen as having voted for the war in Iraq.
Back in just a second.
Don't go away.
Now here's a question for Maureen Dowd and all the rest of the leftists trying to give birth to a new narrative here.
If the CIA, MI6, the defense intelligence agency, if all of these intel services lied to George W. Bush about Saddam Hussein having weapons of mass destructions, how come they lied to Bill Clinton in 1998?
Because Bill Clinton said the exact same thing.
Bill Clinton was prepared to go into Iraq on the same basis that Bush did, except he was trying to erase Monica Lewinsky from the headlines.
We've got the sound bites here, folks.
We have played these sound bites in the past.
Bill Clinton making the case that Saddam's got weapons of mass destruction.
We've got Democrat senators echoing everything Clinton said and urging Clinton to go to war, willing to sign a use of a use of force authorization.
1998, five years before Bush.
So if the Intel services were lying to Bush, why weren't they lying to Clinton?
If the CIA did not lie to Bush, how come they lied to Bill Clinton?
You can look, ask this thing any way you want, because Clinton said the same thing Bush did.
We have documented it.
We went back.
We have played the soundbites in this program.
It was all during the Obama campaign, in fact, because he was trying to make it out like no Democrat ever supported going into Iraq.
The intel services didn't lie to Bush.
This is a false narrative that's being created.
Because they know that there's a low information voter component out there that'll buy anything, the drive-by media says.
I got what knowing what we know now.
Should somebody ask Hillary if Bill Clinton should have just gone ahead and killed bin Laden when he had the chance several times, knowing what we know now, should Bill Clinton have pulled out of Somalia?
Blackhawk down, because that's what convinced bin Laden that we were a paper tiger.
Bin Laden said so to an ABC reporter, John Miller.
He said, Yeah, when I saw you guys cut and run from Somalia, I knew you could be had.
So knowing what we know now, should Bill Clinton have pulled out of Somalia when he did.
But I've got an entirely different perspective on this.
Why even accept the premise in this knowing what you know now?
Because the premise in the knowing what you know now question is that Iraq was a mistake.
That Iraq was a total boondoggle.
More on that in a moment.
Knowing what we know now, should Bill Clinton have used a condom with Monica when she had on the blue dress.
Ha!
How are you?
Welcome back, Rush Limbaugh doing that which I was born to do.
And doing it well, which is the measure of success and happiness.
800-282-2882.
Now, what I would like to see happen, this is my last comment on knowing what we know now, and I'm going to go back to the phones here.
But I have one more thing to say about it.
I know this will not happen, but I would love to see it.
I wish one of these Republicans would not accept the premise in this knowing what we know now, would you have authorized the invasion of Iraq?
Or should Bush have, or was it a mistake, or what have you?
Because the premise is that it was a mistake.
The premise was that it was that it was a debacle.
The premise is that it was an the worst damn thing that ever happened in America was the Iraq war.
And that premise need not be accepted.
I would love it if Rubio or Jeb or anybody says, Well, you know what, Chris?
You know what, George?
You know what?
Pick your native liberal reporter.
Knowing that the Democrats would rip this country apart because of the Iraq war, knowing that the Democrats would actively seek the defeat of the U.S. military, and knowing that the Democrat Party would do everything they could to sabotage the war effort, I might have rethought it.
Knowing what I know now, that the Democrat Party was going to take the occasion to Iraq war to rip this country apart, that they would use it to elect an unqualified president who would then cut and run for Barack Obama, I might not have, George.
I might not have, Chris.
If I had known what the Democrats were going to do, and if I had known that an incompetent like Obama was going to be elected, who would inherit a stable Iraq and then abandon it.
I might not have George.
I might not have Chris.
Had I known Obama was going to be the next president.
...
Why accept the premise that it was a debacle?
When Obama was elected, Iraq was stable.
In fact, Obama, if you'll recall, liked the surge so much after the fact, don't forget this either.
Before the surge, every damn one of these Democrats tried to sabotage it.
Here comes Petraeus up to Capitol Hill to testify about it.
And before he said a word, Hillary's calling in a liar.
Move on.org with a full page ad in the New York Times calling him a liar, calling him General B. Trayus.
The surge went on to work.
It worked so well that you may not have remembered this, but Obama actually used the tactic of the surge in Afghanistan.
Remember that?
And I think it was with General Betrayas again.
But accepting the premise that it was a total debacle is something that need not happen.
And by the way, these guys are running for president.
And I don't care what their consultants say, they are running against the Democrat.
I don't know who it's going to be, Hillary.
They're running.
And I hear this talk.
This is another thing.
It's already happening again.
I'm hearing Republican consultants and others who issue advice, free and otherwise, tell Republicans, forget Obama.
Could we just move on?
It's not about Obama.
He's a lame duck.
Forget Obama.
Don't mention Obama.
Well, BS to that.
The country is the mess it is because of Obama.
And there are reasons why.
They're rooted in policy.
It's time to educate people.
So here comes this knowing what you know now question about Iraq.
Turn it right around on them and blame all this on the Democrats, not Bush.
They supported it.
They voted for going to war in Iraq.
They're the ones that cut and ran at the first sign of trouble.
They're the ones that wanted to act like they never supported it.
They're the ones whose media buddies let them get away with that.
And let's not forget something very crucial.
Both Barack Hussein oh and Joe Biden tried to take credit for winning the war in Iraq.
I'm sure some of you may remember that when I mention it here.
I'll never forget Biden and Obama both at a high point in Iraq, where it was stable and there were elections, and it looked like the Iraq war had been won.
They're out there taking credit for it.
I'll never forget it.
I was flabbergasted here when that happened.
It was shameless.
The two people who had done everything they could to sabotage that war effort, now taking it was like Harry Reid taking credit for raising $4 million in the phony soldiers letter.
Here's Nobel Peace Prize winner Barack Obama on the cum, winning that prize on the cum, taking credit?
Iraq was such a positive, he was taking credit for the win.
Now we got a presidential campaign.
All of a sudden, the Iraq war was an absolute disaster in debacle.
And every Republican's going to get a question where he's going to be forced to admit that it was a debacle.
Well, who made it the debacle?
Barack Hussein Obama and his Democrat Party buddies, because Iraq was stable.
I mean, Bush's democracy everywhere agenda might not have been realized, but it was not a war-torn country.
And Ramadi had not fallen to ISIS.
And there was not an ISIS.
That's another thing to try to blame ISIS on Bush.
ISIS is a direct result of Barack Hussein Obama and his policies, along with the Democrat Party.
And that's why accepting the premise of this question is a little bit problematic with me.
Don't even accept the premise.
Because what they're really asking, you admit the Iraq war was a mistake.
Now will you admit it was a mistake?
It was a mistake.
You Republicans made a mistake.
Will you admit it?
No, we didn't make a mistake.
ISIS, the Middle East is a problem today because we got somebody incompetent running a show.
Now I don't expect them to say that.
I wish they would.
But in their own way.
For crime, how is it that Obama is exempted from any and all responsibility for everything that's happened during his presidency?
And that's another thing that question's trying to do.
Absolve Obama of any culpability, any responsibility.
I know, we're all asking.
When are the Republicans going to learn?
Well, as long as they view the media as an opportunity to get their word out.
They're going to continue to make the same mistakes.
As long as they think they need the mainstream media to get their message out, they're going to keep making these same mistakes.
Because the mainstream media exists to distort their message.
The mainstream media exists to destroy their campaigns and candidacies.
Not get their message out.
That's not even arguable.
Okay, to the phones we go.
Greg in Louisville, great to have you on the program, sir.
Hello.
Hi, Russ.
Good to talk to you.
Thank you, sir.
Uh look, you know, you always say, and I think it's it's absolutely right that we should judge a government program by its results, not its good intentions.
Right.
If you apply that standard to Iraq, I mean, come on, it was a bipartisan dumb idea.
The results have been disastrous.
We wouldn't have uh we'd have had to have the surge, wouldn't have so-called stable if if Bush and Hillary and McCain and Kerry and Reed and McConnell hadn't all supported the bipartisan dumb idea.
Uh so therefore, I think that it's very relevant to ask.
You've got a fragment of Iraq now with ISIS coming into existence with Iran coming in, the militia's coming in, you got their fighting over the scraps.
I think it's a very valid question.
And it's mostly valid because half these people want to do it again.
They want to send troops in to fight ISIS.
Now you can't Lindsay Graham and and all the gang, the neocons are just eager to go in and fight ISIS.
So it's very right.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait a minute.
The neocons?
Sure.
Lindsay Graham, John McConnell.
I thought it was Obama that was uh going through the motions of fighting ISIS.
Well, they're urging us to go in there and fight ISIS.
And you know, I I think that's we're just they want us to reply to the city.
Okay, well let's have I'll play the game.
Uh you ask me, you're the journalist, sorry, you're the Democrat Party hack, and I'm a candidate.
And you you asked me the question do you think it was a mistake to the Iraq war?
Both sides should be asked that, but yeah, do you think it was a mistake to to invade Iraq in 2003?
Uh okay, I'll agree with a mistake.
Now what?
Okay.
Now what?
Let's ask Hillary.
Well, let's not do it again, and let's learn from that, and let's be careful of what we get involved in.
Let's we got 5,000 dead Americans, trillions of dollars spent, a fragment of Iraq that's worse than ever.
The the neocons have been wrong.
Well, I'm sorry, we've we're compounding the mistake.
Obama is compounding a mistake over and over again.
Arab Spring.
I mean, nobody's learned nobody's learning from this mistake.
What are you fixated on the neocons for?
The neocons aren't running anything.
They're the ones urging us to go back into war.
And Libya.
Obama doesn't listen to the neocons.
Well, he but he went into Libya, which was a dumb idea, and here we got the results of the world.
Well, did the neocons make him do that?
They encouraged it.
Half the Republicans.
So Obama, it's see, it's not Obama's fault.
Neocons.
The neocons.
You know what that is?
That's an anti-Semitic neocons, these Jewish did it.
That's what that means.
The neocons is code language for conservative Jews who used to be liberal Democrats.
That's what it means.
And they're a bunch of hawks.
And they don't care about the social issues.
The neocons, the neo that's a new one.
Somebody needs to testephanopoulos.
That could be he way out way out of this.
Just start asking the Republicans about the neocons.
And lay the blame at their feet.
You know, I'll tell you where this is headed.
If there's no stopping it before we're done, the Democrats are going to have tried to convince people that 9-11 didn't happen, and that none of what's happened since is justified.
Now don't laugh at that.
Obviously, they will not say that 9-11 didn't happen, but what they'll do, as more and more time passes, they will happily try to point out that 9-11 was nowhere near as bad as causing all of these horrible policies the Republicans have implemented.
So it's clear as a bell, that's where we're headed.
Now throwing the neocons in on this, that's a new sign of desperation.
That one's that one's fresh.
Haven't heard that one yet.
But it just illustrates how hard the Democrats are working here to basically disqualify any foreign policy or operation that would mission, whatever that's happened since 91.
Now, meanwhile, ISIS is real.
ISIS comes from Al Qaeda.
ISIS comes from Al Qaeda in Iraq.
Contrary to what Maureen Dowd and others on the left wanted to believe.
And by the way, they're building a new narrative.
Saddam, he he had so little to do with 9 11, he didn't even know about it.
There wasn't any Al Qaeda in Iraq.
He had nothing to do with it.
He was all huff and puffery.
He never had any weapons of mass destruction.
He was lying about it.
He had no contact with Al Qaeda or any terrorist group ever.
That was the Iranians.
Saddam was just a dodgering old bumbling idiot, a braggados Arab, and the Bushes got lost and started trying to take the guy out because they didn't like him.
And that was all there was to it, and that's why it was all a mistake, and that's what they're trying to convince people of.
But Saddam is really just a hapless, bumbling little tin horn guy that uh once tried to kill George H. W. Bush, and so we had to get even with him.
And we had to make up all this stuff about him being involved.
But ISIS exists.
ISIS is Al Qaeda in Iraq.
ISIS also has roots to Syria.
ISIS came into existence during the Obama administration.
This is really fascinating to watch this.
Is the limbaugh theorem explains how Obama gets away with all of his domestic debacles.
But now the drivebys are even trying to take it a step further by claiming Obama's got nothing to do with whatever has happened in American foreign policy.
Obama's got nothing to do with what the Iranians are doing.
Obama's got nothing to do with what's happening in Palestinians and Israelis.
Obama's got nothing to do with what happened to Libya and Benghazi.
All of this is George W. Bush's fault.
Because of the Iraq Wall.
That's what's being set up.
And it's all being set up for Hillary because Hillary voted for it.
She was right in, she was among the biggest Obama even attacked her in the 2008 campaign for all of her support for the Iraq war and George W. Bush.
So now Hillary's got to be given cover and protection.
And the best way to do that is to destroy her opponent because left alone and by herself, Hillary can't get any more votes than that she's already going to get because there's a D beside her name, which is a sizable number.
Here's uh here's uh Lynette in Houston.
Hi, Lynette, great to have you on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hi, how are you?
Very well, thank you.
Great.
Well, I'm calling regarding to your comment in the first hour regarding Hillary and her email recipients being potentially bad actors across the world.
Um, I think the main point here is saying that Hillary is a security risk for this country.
Big time.
Yes, because anybody with a security clearance knows that if you do something that is that someone could potentially blackmail you for, then they and someone could easily manipulate you and to get access or gain uh or uh information or something like that.
So that puts Hillary at a risk because then they can manipulate her when she is in office if she were to become president.
That's exactly right.
Well, now let me tell the audience, Lynette, that the brilliant comment Lynette is referring to as mine, in which I pointed out Mrs. Clinton may think she's deleted all those 30,000 emails because they were on her server, but she's forgotten that she sent those emails to somebody.
And there's no doubt that among the emails she was sending, bad guy number one in the world was the recipient, bad guy number two in the world, bad guy number three.
I mean, Mrs. Clinton was Secretary of State, she was dealing with all these foreign leaders, despots, and tin horns.
They've got her emails.
They know she's saying she's deleted them all.
They know that they can expose her tomorrow.
They know they can destroy her by releasing what she claims is unimportant because she destroyed it.
But she sent those emails.
And by the way, they have the emails that they sent her.
They've not only got the emails she sent back to them, they've got the emails that they sent her.
Don't think they've thrown them away.
These are tin horn dictators.
They don't care who sees it.
Now imagine what they could do to Mrs. Clinton.
What Lynette is referring to here is blackmail bribery or whatever.
You know, but bad guy number one.
Mrs. Clinton, do you recall when you told me that you thought Barack Hussein Obama was a secret Muslim and that he had a wool pulled over people's eyes?
What if I were to release that email, Mrs. Clinton Toronto?
Right?
Well, no, I would be happy not to release it, but you must do X, and that was how it would work.
Take anything that she said in these emails.
The point is, she may think she's destroyed them.
But she's gonna have to have really close relationships with everybody she sent those emails to, because I don't know how she can be confident that they will keep providing cover for her.
A relatively famous economist says that the economy might be a disappointment for years to come, and we'll just have to get used to it, that this is the new normal.
Really?
Why?
