Time Text
Hi, folks.
Great to have you here.
Welcome back.
It's Rush Limbaugh.
I'm the Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
It's great to have you here.
The telephone number is 800-282-2882 and the email address lrushbow at eibnet.com.
Oh.
Okay.
I have some audio sound bites.
President Obama and his speech just concluded a short while ago on the Iranian nuclear arrangement.
It is now an arrangement that we have with the with the Iranians.
And we have uh four sound bites here in which the President bashes conservative media, bashes George W. Bush, and says that if Congress does not approve the deal, the Iranians will have a nuke in six months.
If we don't approve the deal, I thought we didn't have to prove it.
I thought it was already approved at the U.N. All of a sudden now the U.S. Congress matters.
And then it really doesn't.
Here's why it matters for Obama's legacy, which is what this is all about.
Obama wants the history books to read.
That while there was opposition on everything he did, he overwhelmed them, he defeated them, and in some cases he even persuaded them to join him.
And that's what he wants in this Iran deal.
Iranian deal.
I I cannot emphasize enough what these things are really about.
And we're we're dealing here, folks, with an interesting psychological study.
Obama is genuinely a leftist, and he has these uh radically extreme leftist ideals that he is implementing.
And my previously made comments over the years about his desire to transform the country because he's mad, unhappy, angry at the way the country was founded in its time that a bunch of people had to pay the price for all the pain and suffering of others.
I mean, yeah, all that's true, too.
But there's not there's more than this, not just that.
He wants, he's building a legacy.
First president ever to get national health care in the U.S. after all the great presidents before him who tried, he's the one who did it.
Saving the country from a ravaging recession and maybe depression.
Even that hasn't happened, that's the storyline.
And the only president who ever got a deal with an enemy, limiting their usage of nuclear weapons.
A lot of presidents had come before Obama, a lot of them had tried to deal with Iran, but Barack Hussein Oh was the only president in American history to ever be good enough, talented enough, smart enough to actually do it.
That's the legacy he's shooting for.
When it comes to the Iranian deal, the reason now all of a sudden Congress matters is because as for the legacy is concerned, he wants it to look like he was able to get unanimity or at least majority agreement, even among his enemies.
Because that will make it an even bigger deal in the history books.
He is somebody that is acutely devoted to what will be said and written about him hundreds of years from now.
I can't relate to that.
I don't care what's said about me today, much less tomorrow.
He cares about it a hundred years from now.
Well, when I said I mean it doesn't it doesn't govern what I do.
My point is I mean, everybody cares what they say about it, but I'm I'm it's not gonna make me change who I am in order to get.
But that's that's another story.
Let's just hit the soundbite, you'll see what I'm talking about here.
Um here's the first of four.
When I ran for president eight years ago as a candidate who had opposed the decision to go to war in Iraq, I said that America didn't just have to end that war.
We had to end the mindset that got us there in the first place.
It was a mindset characterized By a preference for military action over diplomacy.
A mindset that put a premium on unilateral U.S. action over the painstaking work of building international consensus.
A mindset that exaggerated threats beyond what the intelligence supported.
More than a decade later, we still live with the consequences of the decision to invade Iraq.
And I the disinformation, misinformation, the history revisionism now continues.
Why you would think that before Obama, all we did was go to war.
And that's all we wanted to do.
And that's the only way we ever thought we could solve problems.
We didn't have any diplomats before Obama came along.
We didn't have any good ones.
We didn't have any real smart diplomacy.
No, we just had a bunch of cowboys.
Characterized by the last president before Obama, that's Bush, who once again here gets raked over the coals for being ultimately responsible for all of this that Obama had to fix from the economy to health care to immigration to now Iranian nuclear weapons.
Why, everybody had tried to fix it, but Bush made the biggest mess of anybody, and it took the unique intelligence and skills of Barack Hussein Obama to fix all of this.
Oh, yeah, the American mindset before Obama got here.
Yeah, we don't like somebody, go kill them.
We don't like somebody, go to war with them.
Build a consensus.
What did Bush do before we get into Iraq?
He spent a almost two years building a consensus.
It's so frustrating to have to sit here and constantly defend against these lies.
And it feels like spitting against the wind anyway.
Here's the next bite.
Unfortunately, we're living through a time in American politics where every foreign policy decision is viewed through a partisan prison.
Evaluated by headline grabbing sound bites.
And so, before the Inc.
was even dry on this deal, before Congress even read it, a majority of Republicans declared their virulent opposition.
This is a man who gives us a health care bill that nobody was allowed to see until it was passed.
This is the guy who gave us a trans-Pacific trade deal that nobody was allowed to see before they voted on it, unless they went to a secret room in the basement of the Capitol.
They were not allowed to take any notes out of the room.
They were not allowed to talk about it.
They were not allowed to share any information about it.
This is a guy talking about making virulent opposition decisions before they've even seen it.
That's how 90% of what Obama's done has gotten done.
Nobody's been able to see it before it became ratified, passed, or had his signature on it.
And you talk about the pot calling the kettle black with this comment that everything in this country is viewed through a prism of partisanship, and he is an angel of non-partisanship and total objectivity.
There's no ideology driving Obama.
He's not a partisan in any way.
He's just trying to do the best for everybody.
He's trying to save the climate.
He's trying to save lions, he's trying to save innocent women, he's trying to there's no ideology.
It's just insulting.
But again, it's spitting against the wind.
Because one thing we've uh we've learned over.
What is it now?
Seven years, six and a half, seven years, that you can't.
You can't square people with this.
I mean, if they if they have fallen into Obama idolatry, that's it.
No matter what facts you have, no matter what emotion you have, if you're even able to reach them emotionally, you're not going to be able to persuade them that Obama is who he is.
Here's the next bite, second to last.
Without this deal, the scenarios that critics warn them about Happening in 15 years could happen six months from now.
By killing this deal, Congress would not merely pave Iran's pathway to a bomb, it would accelerate it.
See how that works.
With the deal, they don't ever get a nuclear weapon.
If we get this thing, Congress approves it, they never get a nuclear weapon.
But if we don't sign it, they're gonna have one in six months.
Wait now just a minute.
What's all this talk about?
They're a year or two away.
They're gonna have one in six months if we don't do this.
If they're only six months away, there's nothing that's gonna stop them from getting one.
Deal or not.
This is I mean, just to show you how mindless this is.
Here he is praising his diplomacy and criticizing all these previous presidents have gone to war.
What are we doing in Syria?
What are we doing with ISIS?
Is his diplomacy solving a great problem there?
Or are we at war?
Who is it that ramped up troop levels in Afghanistan?
Who is it that who extended the war in Afghanistan?
Who is it that hasn't closed Club Gitmo, despite promises?
This is the limbaugh theorem on display.
This is how Obama, Obama runs around and forever shields himself from accountability for everything that he's done.
Just go out A and lie about what he's done, lie about what his opponents have said, and then the things that he's made happen, the things that he has caused, always end up being blamed on others because Obama promises he's going to continue fighting to try to fix the things that he's actually made happen.
And here's the final soundbite in the message.
Just because Iranian hardliners chant death to America does not mean that that's what all Iranians believe.
In fact, it's those.
In fact, it's those hardliners who are most comfortable with the status quo.
It's those hardliners chanting death to America who've been most opposed to the deal.
They're making common cause with the Republican caucus.
Now wait a second now.
You know what, folks, that that's more outrageous than anything Donald Trump's ever said.
You know, I have a theory about this.
Because what did he just say?
He's saying these to America hardliners in Iran are making common cause with Republican caucus because the hardliners, not to America, who happened to include the Ayatollah hominy.
Who is it that's leading those chants?
Standing next to his Kalishnikov.
It's the Ayatollah hominy.
Who is it that's just written a book about how to out with the U.S. and destroy Israel?
It's the Ayatollah hominy.
The guy Iran, Obama made the deal with.
Who is the guy leading the chance that to America?
That to America.
It's the Ayatollah hominy, the guy Obama made a deal with.
But Obama says, no, that's just a bunch of hardliners and they don't want the deal.
Just like the Republicans, they're making common cause with the Republicans.
You know what?
I'm I'm gonna raise my hand.
I may be responsible for him saying that.
And when I tell you why, Mr. Snerdley, you may agree with me.
Who is it?
I ask, who has continually pointed out that you can't tell the difference between Mahmood Ahmadini Zad criticizing America and the Democrat Party.
Me.
Who is it routinely during the 2012 campaign made the observation that whenever I hear an enemy of America criticize this country, it sounds just like your average day Democrat.
Me, your beloved host, El Rushbo.
It's now, I think, established that has really ticked them off.
I think it has really, really ticked them off.
And this is payback.
The hardliners in Iran who don't want the deal to America are making common cause with the Republican caucus.
Yes, sir.
Back after this, folks.
Okay, welcome back.
Great to have you here, Rush Limbaugh America's real anchor man and doctor of democracy, a truth detector and all that, combined in one harmless lovable little fuzzball package.
So let's let's take some of these things in Obama said.
This is fun.
He spent almost an hour on this sales pitch.
And who do you think it was aimed at?
It was aimed at Democrats and his party.
It's Democrats and his party that he's losing on this Iranian.
That's why all this partisanship of the Republicans, and that's why, you know, death to America, death to America.
It's just common cause with the uh with the Republican caucus.
This guy, I'm telling you.
He's a kind he's a perfect liberal.
He'll never be happy, no matter what all he gets.
If he gets everything he wants, his legacy, he's never gonna be happy.
He's gonna be constantly angry and ticked off, just like every other liberal you've ever met is.
And never happy, no matter what they get.
They're always enraged.
They're always angry.
And you know why?
Because there's always disagreement, and that they can't abide.
They just can't stand the fact that not everybody sees their brilliance and agrees with them.
And when there is disagreement and opposition, they're ticked off no matter what they get.
They get some satisfaction over winning, but it doesn't last long.
You remember some of you might remember, because Obama, this is a threat.
If Congress doesn't sign my arrangement, Iran gets a bomb in six months.
If they get the bomb in six months, it's because he's paid for it.
He has enabled them to continue buying and building centrifuges and using them.
If they're six months away from getting a bomb, it's because we've made it possible.
It's because this government's made it possible, because this government believes that they can turn anybody into a good guy with the power of Obama's speeches, words, and diplomacy.
But this is a threat.
If Congress doesn't sign my arrangement, Iran gets the bomb in six months.
That's not salesmanship.
Do you remember?
Did you ever read Mr. Snerdley National Lampoon, the magazine?
They did some great things.
Remember the Ted Kennedy Volkswagen ad.
They had a Volkswagen floating.
And it, if if uh if if if uh Ted Kennedy had owned one of these, the president of the United President of the United States today because it was floating rather than his Oldsmobile with Mary Joe Kobeck, and it would thank.
Well, they did something else too.
They had a magazine cover, one issue.
I don't remember the year.
On the cover was a dog looking sideways at a gun pointed at its head.
And the caption on the cover of National Lampoon was if you don't buy this magazine, we will kill this dog.
Now everybody knew it was a joke because it's national lampoon, but here comes Obama.
If you don't sign my arrangement, the Iranians get a bomb in six months.
And then this business about just because the Iranians chant death to America doesn't mean that's what most Iranians.
Did you hear that room erupt in applause?
Hey, you know what?
Just because there's a bunch of people over there saying death to America, applause for this.
There's utter willful denial.
Wherever, whoever this audience was today, there is total utter denial about who our enemies are.
That room, Obama and his audience, their enemies are us, folks.
The Republicans, conservatives, that's who they consider to be their enemies, not the Iranians.
But the problem with that is that that's what the leaders of Iran believe, not the rabbin or the rank and foul population.
It's the leaders of that damn country believe it.
They're the ones saying it.
As I just brilliantly pointed out, it's the Ayatollah hominy who's leading these chants of death to America, death to America's written a book on how to outwit America and wipe out Israel.
Death to America is what the leadership of the country believes.
The rank and file population in Iran doesn't matter.
They live in a dictatorship.
They live in tyranny.
It doesn't matter what they say.
What they say in public is programmed anyway.
This arrangement, can I be blunt?
Obama's blunt.
Let me be blunt.
This arrangement with Iran, let me tell you what this is.
It is an arrangement with a lawless, raging anti-Semitic terror state who will become wealthy enough and deadly enough to take over the entire Middle East, threatening to use their nuclear bomb, just like Obama just did.
Congress doesn't sign my arrangement, Iran gets the bomb in six months.
That's a threat.
And we are going to enable the Iranians to threaten that whole region and back it up.
Because we are going to make possible their ability to ratchet up to nuclear weaponry.
And all of this, this speech, this sales pitch, you're not going to see this written anywhere.
Well, I you will, depending on where you look, but you're not going to see it in the drive-by media.
But this whole appearance of Obamas today was aimed at Democrat votes, not Republicans.
He was bullying Democrats for votes today.
That's why he's blasting Bush, claiming that Iraq somehow.
What does Iraq have to do with this?
What in the world does the Iraq war have to do with this thing in Iran anyway?
That's nothing more than trying to raise the blood pressure of Democrats to get them on his side.
It's Democrat red meat.
And it was Hillary and Kerry Biden, they all voted to use force in Iraq anyway back in 2002.
This is straw dog.
Greetings, my friends, welcome back.
El Rushbow, having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have.
Okay, so Obama's threatening us now that we don't sign or agree to his agreement with the Iranians and they're going to get a nuke in six months, right?
What happened to the Ayatollah hominy's fat law?
It was not long ago that President Obama himself, his own self, said that we had nothing to worry about here anyway because the Ayatollah hominy had issued a fat law saying there would never be a nuclear weapon possessed by Iran.
You remember that?
If you don't remember that, don't doubt me.
He said it.
What happened to I told us that now, no, no, wait, nobody's been able to find the fat law.
I know it's a strange word, isn't it?
But we're not to laugh at other cultures here, Mr. Snerdley.
Reign it in there.
The Ayatollah has said that there's a fatwa against nuclear weapons in Iran.
When the, you know, what the cleric says there's a fatwag is not going to happen.
And all kinds of scholars have searched wherever you search for Ayatollah scholarship.
They can't find the fat law.
But Obama quoted it.
Just it was not three weeks ago, Obama told us that the Ayatollah's fatwa against nuclear weapons was all we had to realize here.
It's not a problem.
Now he's saying, threatening it in six months if we don't sign his arrangement that are going to have a nuclear weapon.
And the next thing, he this business of bringing up Iraq, this stuff really, really, folks, it it steams me like you can't believe.
Because this is history revision.
It's what we always get from these people, just abject out and out lies.
The fact of the matter is that Barack Hussein Obama inherited a stable Iraq.
Do you remember the arguments that we have had over the force of agreements, uh the uh the status agreements regarding American troops that remained there to help keep the peace.
For the exact reason he used it today, Obama could not permit there to be a public concession assumption that the Iraq war had been a success.
He constantly needs the Iraq war to go back to because it's like throwing red meat to a lion.
It's like throwing red meat to these Democrats, and he needs it to rev them up.
The Iraq war and George W. Bush is like showing them the cross.
They go batty.
They go absolutely nuts.
And when Obama needs to rally him, George W. Bush and the Iraq war are two of the primary tools at his disposal.
Therefore, the Iraq war was never ever going to end well as long as Obama had anything to say about it.
And he had a lot to say about it because he inherited a stable Iraq.
He inherited an Iraq that had elections.
I mean, it wasn't it wasn't a panacea.
But he did not do anything to hold on to that stability.
And that's why we've got ISIS.
And that's why we have a civil war in Syria.
And that's why Al Qaeda is back at full strength and more.
It's not because of Abu Grab pictures, it's not because of Club Getmo.
It's because of Obama.
And his partisan politics and his prism through which he looks at everything of partisan politics.
He needs the Iraq war as a constant reminder to his Democrats of a total giant American screw up.
He can always lay at the blame of the Republicans.
But just ask yourself, what does the Iraq war have to do with this deal with Iran?
Absolutely nothing.
Except he's running short of Democrat votes to authorize this arrangement.
All right, let me head back to the phones.
Um I intended to get there before I got these audio sound bites from Obama.
That just ticks me off here.
I mean, one lie after another, this continued public distortion of reality, and they get away with it.
Clinton gets away with it, he gets away.
They just get away with it.
Because the low information voters.
The great unwashed.
A political force all too powerful in this country.
Here's uh here's Kevin in St. James, Missouri.
Hey, Kevin, I'm I'm really glad you waited.
Welcome to the program, sir.
Hello.
Hey, Russ, how are you doing today?
I'm good.
I'm good.
Thank you.
I I just want to let you know for out the bad, I am a Democrat.
And there's a couple things that I really don't understand on your about you.
Okay.
Uh you always talk about low information voters.
And I want you to explain this to me because for some reason, when you say that and you explain what to your listeners as low information voters, and my second question is going to tie into this too, uh, about your last caller.
Uh what is a low information voter?
Because to me it seems like you're always referring to people that are democratic minded or liberal minded.
That was my that that's that's my first question.
That's interesting.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Let's take this.
Let me no, no, no, no, let me uh most hosts that hang up on you here and until you have a nice day, but not me.
You're you you're hearing me when I say low information voters, you're you're you think that I am automatically assigning ignorance to Democrats and people who disagree with it.
The only reason to disagree is because they're ignorant.
They don't know enough, and and that's what makes them low information voters.
Is that right?
Is that your impression that I give you?
Pretty much, pretty much, yeah, because I spend I spend about two hours every day listening to your show.
And I spend about ten hours of my extra time, ten to fifteen hours of my extra time a week, uh, you know, looking through the internet, looking at political things, keeping myself informed, keeping an understanding.
You know, like with uh you talked about the bad new deal with Iran.
A lot of it I think is kind of kind of kind of shoddy.
But then again, with no deal at all, there's no watchdog at all on them.
But yeah, that that that's kind of what I think.
Okay, well, I'll tell you, I'll let me explain it to you.
You're not far wrong.
Um, but it's I don't say this in conceit.
I say it out of out of frustration.
I I wish there weren't low information voters.
I wish the people I'm talking about knew more than they do and were able to think independently more than they are.
I think low information voters fall for the daily soap opera script that serves as the news each day presented by the is that what what is that noise in the background there?
Uh I don't know, really.
I don't I don't hear anything.
You don't hear anything.
I hang on just a second.
What's he doing, man?
Did am I?
Yeah, the uh I have somebody else in the other room speaking.
Ah, I see.
I got it.
Okay.
So yeah, I think I think sorry about that.
I here's the thing.
This None of this is rooted in conceit, Kevin.
I mean, I really do think that what I think is right.
Not because of any other reason that I think it's correct.
I mean, I and I do not make things up that I don't believe in order to gain supporters, and I don't lie to people to gain support because it's that's not going to get me anything.
Um you're not a low information person.
This is why you're confused.
You're you're you're not the kind of guy I'm talking about.
The very fact that you can ask this question means that you are not a typical low information voter.
You can't possibly listen to this program two hours a day, you can't possibly be a low information voter.
No.
So but uh to my second question.
Uh it's the deal on the thing with planned parenthood.
Yeah.
Uh I know you've been talking about Obama and the New Deal.
I would love to make some comments on that.
We can have a good debate argument with you on that.
But that would be for another day.
All right.
Uh but with the deal with the Planned Parenthood thing.
I live in rural Missouri.
Yeah.
All right.
And the Planned Parent are around here, they changed their names of family planning a few years back.
And the thing about it is I don't know of hardly anybody around here that has that has had I know of a few girls around here portions.
I I hate I I hate to tell you here, but they're there planned parenthood is not in rural America.
That's one of the uh point you think they're needed, but they're not there because the numbers are not there for what Planned Parenthood wants to achieve.
Planned Parenthood is an urban existence.
Two-thirds no, it is not.
It is right here, it was right here in Rawlham, Missouri a few years ago, and it changed its name.
It's all backed by Planned Parenthood.
Those those that organization that's up here.
But it isn't, I'm telling you, it isn't backed or whatever, but it's not Planned Parenthood.
Two-thirds of Planned Parenthood clinics are in black neighborhoods.
They're in there in urban neighborhoods.
Now I happen to have just coincides with your call here.
I have a piece.
I just found this after the program started today.
It's from a website called the Federalist, and the headline, the largest women's health care provider in America is not Planned Parenthood.
This story talks about all of the the smaller it's a group called Democrats for Life.
There's a uh these are pro-life Democrats, and they are chronicling all of the tiny health care clinics that do serve rural America that are not because Planned Parenthood will not go there.
A Democrat for Life uh pointed out numerous times in recent days, a number of local community health centers like the one you talked about outnumber Planned Parenthood Clinics ten to one.
And you we believe me, Planned Parenthood does not do what you think they do, Kevin.
This is this is now I'm not lying to you here.
I'm not making it up, and I'm not I'm not trying to get you to believe something that isn't true.
They do not do the women's health services that they want you to think they do.
They want people to think they're engaged in things much more than they are engaged in abortion as a means of justifying their clinic's existence.
Why don't those signs say abortion clinic instead of Planned Parenthood Family Planning?
Because they're lying to people about what goes on behind closed doors in there as we are now learning.
They chop up intact born babies and sell the parts.
It is horrific what is happening in there.
It is outrageous.
It's being received by some people as just a ho-hum, next news story.
Well, that's fascinating.
Okay, what's next?
The fact of the matter is they don't do mammograms, for example, and you you'd be stunned at the number of women who think that planned parenthood does mammograms.
If you don't do mammograms, you are not a women's health center, and they do not do them.
That's not why they exist.
All of this talk about women's health, uh things that happen at Planned Parenthood in that regard are a snow job.
They are a cover.
They are an abortion clinic.
They are an abortion, they're a mass abortion provider and performer.
That's what Planned Parenthood is.
And they get two billion Federal dollars a year to do it.
And now we've learned that even more horrific things than just that are taking place in there.
Believe me, Kevin, you don't want one of these things in your neighborhood.
Trust me.
You don't want one there.
You don't want.
You know, it is widely widely known in this audience that I am a just an Apple fanboy.
It is it is widely known that I'm I'm a very much interested in uh tech, gizmo's gadgets and so forth is a hobby.
And so I it got a lot of questions in the email about about Apple.
And I'm I'm literally being inundated with people asking me what in the world's happening with Apple's stock price, because it's getting scary.
That if Apple crashes, the country crashes.
And Apple has reached a dangerous point in the way Wall Street looks at things.
Apple's stock price has fallen below its 200-day rolling average price.
And in and they've recovered from that 17 times.
But Wall Street, this is so frustrating, because people are writing of their frustration.
Apple just had a great quarter.
They just had a record-setting quarter, and these analysts are talking about how scared they are.
And it's folks, it's true, they're just a bunch of analysts at these investment shops that are that are creating this.
But if you're going to play Wall Street, this is the game you enter.
It's like getting into politics complaining about the media.
Sorry, you're not going to change it.
If you're going to buy stock, if you're getting in the stock market and then get serious about it, you're going to have to learn that a bunch of people that have no idea what they're talking about set the stock price in many cases.
Analysts at brokerage houses who don't know, who don't work at Apple, who don't know what Apple's doing, they have to guess, and they have the power.
You know, Apple can announce a record number of iPhones, and these analysts can say, we're disappointed.
We expected them to sell two million more.
We think they're in trouble.
And the bottom drops out.
It's just the way it is.
So if you're going to play the stock market, you're going to buy Apple or any other stock.
You have to understand that this is what happens.
And there's this another thing, this 200-day rolling average.
The Apple stock price now's fallen below that.
And that historically has meant when that happens to companies that uh the immediate future is not rosy.
It's happened to Apple 17 times that's been recorded, and they've roared back from it each time.
But there are other concerns that people have, including I, including me.
I think what's driving this recent spate of analyst negativity is a consensus view that the Apple Watch has not taken off yet.
Apple hasn't broken down sales, they haven't announced what they and they said they wouldn't.
So it's not that they're holding anything back.
They never said they were going to announce unit sales.
And they haven't.
But so these analysts are doing everything they can to try to find out what the real number is.
Supply chain checks and kind of and the iPad sales uh have slowed.
So there's uh a lot of room for people that are that just aim at negativity to be negative.
But there was a guest, Neil Cavuto had a had a guest on uh, I guess today, this Saturday today.
Fox Business Network, uh Cavuto Coast to Coast, Apple activist shareholder, Justin Danhoff about the volatility in the stack.
And Cavuto said, okay, you're you're really concerned about Tim Cook.
You're worried that Cook's dropping the ball.
Your argument is that Cook and Apple are distracted.
All this social stuff that they're getting into, doing business with a rond thing.
It just distracts from what their real mission is.
Is that pretty much right?
Absolutely.
I was listening to Ross Lindbaugh the other day, and he had something to say that's very applicable to the other.
Well, that shocks me that you were listening to Russia.
That's out of character for you, but go ahead.
That it was easier for him to get to the top than stay on the top.
And for Apple to stay on the top, you're right.
They need to focus on innovation.
So a lot of what we've been seeing in Apple with the social issues, with things like the Apple Watch, this autonomous car project Titan, it's a distraction from the core business.
And people who advise people how to invest their money are losing confidence in telling them to buy Apple.
That's what these analysts downgrading Apple means is they're not willing to recommend that their clients buy Apple.
And one of the reasons is, I mean, Apple they're showing up every gay rights march, they're talking about diversity.
They promoted Lisa Jackson to make sure that their solar plants are green and they're call concerned about global warming and climate change.
I mean good citizens of the earth.
And these guys that invest millions, screw that.
How are you gonna keep the iPhone ahead of everybody?
When are you gonna bring the iPad back?
Why don't you tell us how many watch you screw all this other social silly stuff?
Jobs never did that.
And that's the reason, folks, if you want the answer, and it's right there from Justin Danoff on the Fox News Business Channel.
By the way, I I do not totally concur with that analysis of Apple that you just heard.
I have my own, as I always would be, unique analysis.
