Hi.
How are you?
A man, a legend, a way of life.
Rushlin Ball.
America's real.
Anchorman on Friday.
Let's hit it.
Live from the Southern Command in sunny South Florida.
It's open line Friday.
Openline Friday, 800-282-2882.
Whatever's on your mind.
That's what Friday means to callers.
Whatever is on your mind.
Questions, comments.
Off the beaten path, on the beaten path.
800-282-2882.
Just one more little note here about this Hillary Clinton email stuff because I'm telling you folks, it's the every day there's more.
Just a little bit more.
This one is from the Politico, and the headline is Judge says Hillary Clinton's private emails violated policy.
A federal judge indicated Thursday he believes Hillary Clinton violated government policy by storing official emails on a private server.
During a hearing on a Freedom of Information Act case, the U.S. District Judge Emmett Sullivan said the actions had complicated the State Department's ability to respond to requests for the agency's records on various topics.
He said, we wouldn't be here today if this employee had followed government policy.
See, I love this.
He's calling her an employee.
She was Secretary of State.
And Judge Emmett Sullivan, we wouldn't even be here today if this employee had followed government policy.
I don't know how anybody can pretend that there is still any question about this.
It's beyond me.
But the Clintons are past masters of magical thinking.
But how anybody is still on the fence about this.
You know, the real question is, there is this steady drip, drip, drip of information.
But remember now, we're talking about low information voters in many cases.
Do they care?
Is it a big deal?
Does classified information being exposed matter to them, or do they think it's no big deal?
We're not, there's no that we have any secrets.
Doesn't matter.
We learn theirs.
Um they learn ours.
No big deal.
Time will tell.
Same story in the Hill.com.
I'm telling you, the the uh the drive-bys have been have been brought into this story.
They're not shielding Mrs. Clinton on this.
They may be shielding her in uh oh, I don't know, the the volume here, but they're not shielding her by ignoring the story.
Planned Parenthood, for example, is being totally shielded.
The latest videos, the drive-by media, you can't find a story.
You can't find a single reference.
The media's got the wagon circled around Planned Parenthood, and nobody's gonna get through to you know what Bobby Gendal's doing?
Bobby Gendal is gonna play these, all of these videos in a continuous loop at a at a rally that he is having.
He's got these giant screens set up, and he's gonna show these videos on a loop for all the people that show up to his rally and invince them as a means of having these videos, whatever's happening inside Planned Parenthood reach the uh the general public.
But I really I I don't know how anybody can pretend that there isn't any question here about what happened, what Hillary did uh and how she was careless about all this.
So we'll see where it goes.
Uh I think good time here to to dovetail into this Jeff Greenfield piece that I've previously referenced.
It's entitled Democrat Blues.
Barack Obama will leave his party.
It's in politico, by the way.
Another drive-by upper echelon establishment.
Barack Obama will leave his party in its worst shape since the Great Depression, even if Hillary wins.
As historians begin to assess Barack Obama's record as president, there's at least one legacy he will leave that will indeed be historic, but not the way he would have hoped.
Even as Democrats look favorably ahead to the presidential landscape of 2016, the strength in the Electoral College belies huge losses across much of the country.
In fact, no president in modern times has presided over so disastrous a stretch for his party at almost every level of politics.
Now you have heard all this.
Because you listen to me regularly.
You've heard me probably reference this so much that you've gotten frustrated at hearing it so often.
The 2010 to 2014 midterms that Democrats got shellacked in bolt, I mean, major landslide defeat defeats and losses.
Over a thousand seats lost in these two midterm elections.
Greenfield says that legacies are often tough to measure.
If you want to see just how tricky they can be, consider the campaign to get Andrew Jackson off the $20 bill one hundred and seventy-eight years after he left the White House.
Working class hero, how about slave owner and champion of Native American genocide?
Or watch how JFK went from beloved martyr to the man whose imperial overreach entrapped us in Vietnam and then back to the president whose prudence kept the Cuban missile crisis from turning into World War III.
Yet when you move from policy to politics, the task is a lot simpler.
Just measure the clout of the president's party when he took office and when he left.
And by that measure, Obama's six years have been terrible.
Under Obama, the Democrat Party started strong when Obama was elected in 2008, Democrats read a high watermarks accident.
Anyway, the piece goes on to tell you what you already have heard here.
We've outlined this for years.
Obama has been a terrible thing for his party and for America.
We get relatively clean off-year elections, the midterms.
And you see what the national attitude is about Barack Obama, when you get absolute presidential turnout when all of the demographics are being busted the polls by the Democrat Party, when you have these midterm elections, you find out just how opposed to the Obama agenda this country is.
Now, we haven't come close to stopping it.
But that's not because of us.
We have done everything in our power to elect the people we thought were going to stop this.
We sent them to office, we gave them the House, then we gave them the Senate, and it was clear the message in both those elections, stop Obama, stop this, stop the implementation of this agenda.
And each and every turn we're told, well, we need the Senate.
The House alone isn't going to be them.
We get the Senate.
Well, there's this separation of powers.
You know, Obama's still president.
There's really nothing we can do.
I'm sure if we hold the House and Senate and we elect a Republican president from the establishment, and we don't advance an anti-leftist agenda.
We'll be told, well, you know, it's it's harder than you think.
I mean, we get the media out there destroying us every day.
And we don't have a Supreme Court.
It's become patently obvious the Republican establishment has not been interested in stopping this.
But that's their route to the White House.
You know, I've got two stories here.
I'm going to offer some assistance here.
I have two stories on the Republican Party befuddled with Trump and not knowing what to do.
The first story, as I first mentioned last hour, is in the Washington Post by Robert Costa and Philip Rucker inside the GOP Field's new strategies to ride out the Trump tornado.
The second story is at CNN.
Does the RNC have a secret anti-Trump war room?
The focus of both stories is on how the Republican Party seems powerless to do anything about Trump, that they're befuddled at every turn, that they've had various things they thought would work, and they've all bombed out.
The donors are uneasy and feeling powerless.
The donors have issued fat was.
The donors told Fox News take Trump out.
The donors told some of the other candidates, you can get Trump out of there.
I mean, we're giving you money, it's gonna matter a hill of beans.
You've got to get rid of Trump.
They've tried.
They haven't been able to.
Trump's even stepped in it two or three times on his own, at least according to popular conventional wisdom stepping in it.
Turns out every time Trump steps in it, his popularity grows.
So here we have, let's take a look at this.
We've got Jeff Greenfield acknowledging what a mess of this country Barack Obama has made of it.
And what a mess he's made of his party.
Over here you got the Republicans, desperately trying to figure out what to do.
What is so hard about this?
Focusing on Trump, trying to come up with anti-Trump strategies.
You know, why don't you people in the Republican Party assess the national mood, learn the fact that nobody is happy with what's happening, well, very few people are, and make your target liberalism and the Democrat Party, instead of zeroing in on one particular candidate.
It's not going to look good trying to take out one of your own, even though Trump may not really be a Republican, some people think he's not.
He's still running as one.
And if you guys start coordinating all your fire to take out another Republican, that's not the problem.
Donald Trump is not the Donald Trump is not white this country is in the mess it's in.
Neither is Scott Walker.
Neither is Ted Cruz.
Neither is Rand Paul.
Neither is Jeb Bush.
None of the Republicans running, any of them are responsible for the mess that we are in.
None of them have done one thing to endanger the future for your kids and grandkids.
That's all on the Democrat Party.
That is all on Barack Obama.
This country has moved so far left, it's moved farther left than anybody ever dreamed it would in ways it was never founded to go.
You've got a built-in enemy.
Barack Obama Democrat Party failure.
If you don't want to look at an enemy, look at it as an opportunity.
You have a golden opportunity.
You've had it ever since Obamacare.
Republicans, you've had an opportunity to draw a distinction between yourselves and the mess that this country has become.
Your fingerprints are not on it yet.
And you have a golden identity, opportunity here to identify with and form a bond with a majority of the American voters who desperately want this stuff stopped.
They want Obamacare repeal.
They want the southern border shut down.
They want this economy to become the world dominant leading economy once again.
They want this country to be what it was.
We've already been there.
We've already done the what it can be.
We're going in the wrong direction.
This country needs to be restored.
The Republican Party's the natural alternative to turn to.
You have a built-in opportunity.
You have a built-in set of circumstances.
You can run against the status quo, which nobody wants.
The reason they can't, they may not really be opposed to it.
I mean, if if you can't run against this stuff, and by this stuff, I mean, we've we're we're being governed here by a very ruthless minority.
The American people are being governed against the will of the people of the majority of people in this country.
All the Republican Party has to do is identify with it.
There are countless majorities, majorities in Obamacare repealing it.
There's majority there to be had.
There's a majority to win, a voting majority to propel you to victory.
But fake repeal votes.
Or sorry, can't do it.
Separation of powers, still don't have the White House, not going to cut it.
Nobody's going to feel sorry for you.
Nobody's going to feel sorry for a member of the U.S. Senate.
Nobody's going to feel sorry for a member of the House.
Nobody's going to have the slightest bit of sympathy for how hard your job is.
You asked for it.
You ran for it.
You were elected.
You promised.
You committed to do things.
People are just waiting for you to follow through.
But nobody's going to feel sorry for you.
Nobody is going to look at you as victims of a separation of powers.
Nobody is going to cut you any slack by looking at you at victims of, well, you know, Obama, the media loves him and they hate us.
Mr. Trump happens to be illustrating how this can be done.
Trump is showing it can be done.
Trump is showing that there is a pretty big pathway to a majority of people in this country who want no part of what has happened the last eight years.
And by all rights, the Republican Party ought to be naturally presumed to be that party that would straighten this out and fix this.
They are perceived to be the opposition party.
It ought not be that hard.
This is the easiest time in the last 25 years to explain to people what conservatism is.
You just say it ain't what we have now.
You like working, we're the guys.
You like getting raises, we're the guys.
You like an economy growing?
We're the guys.
You want your kids to have a future?
We're the guys.
You like liberty and freedom, we're your guys.
That's all you have to do.
But you have to believe in it.
All these strategy sessions.
What to do about Trump?
Well, I understand that.
I mean, I understand the competitive nature of political campaigns, and Trump's the leader, you want to take him.
Understand all that.
But shoot higher than that.
I mean, you've got such a golden opportunity here.
Because so many Americans are fed up and unhappy and scared.
When you've got Democrats writing what a mess this country's in, when you have liberal media types writing what a mess Obama has made to the country, what a mess Obama has made of the Democrat Party.
How hard could it be to take advantage of that?
Don't get bogged down in these silly little debates over who's a conservative and who isn't, and what is anchor baby, and is it fair or is it forget this political correctness stuff and just go for it.
Let fly.
What do you got to lose?
By definition, you're telling us you're powerless now anyway because you don't have the White House separation of powers.
So what do you got to lose?
You can't stop them now.
What is there to lose?
How can it possibly Oh, I'm sorry, you could lose the committee chairman ships.
Yeah, yeah, if you lose the election.
But it ain't gonna happen if you do this right.
A majority of the American people do not want any more of this.
I don't care if it's Hillary Clinton with a big fat D next to her name.
I know you say you look at the demographics and you look at the way the electoral college falls out.
Punt.
Campaign on issues.
You can convert some people.
It's not hard.
You have to want to, though.
We don't think it's hard as we look at it from our vantage point.
Back after this, folks, don't go away.
I mean, just to show you, folks, let me let me share with you yet another passage from the Jeff Greenfield piece.
Obama's real legacy is how he has fundamentally transformed America.
A transformation the vast majority of Americans did not want or even vote for.
So his legacy should hurt the Democrats big time.
Nobody voted for this.
And a Republican establishment, I think, is living in such fear.
Look, I'm assuming they're still not Democrats.
I'm assuming they still haven't gone over to become, for the most part, functional leftists.
I can be wrong about that, but I'm assuming that they're still one of us.
And if that's the case, I just think they've been totally cowed.
I think they don't understand that a majority of Americans oppose Obama.
I think they're actually operating under the premise that Obama's loved.
They're operating under the premise they don't dare oppose Obama because of race.
They don't dare criticize Obama or speak out against him because they're going to be called racists.
I really think this kind of stuff imprisons them.
So it's either a combination of fear that any criticism of Obama is going to come back on them and and harm them.
Or else they are buying in believing the myths that they read and watch in drive by media.
They may in fact actually think they are in a minority.
They may actually think that most people think that they're kooks, weirdos, and oddballs in a popularity sense I mean they may not have since it's outside the beltway where these truths are, I find all this hard to believe, but it's anything's possible.
Some something has to explain why there is no Republican Party, real opposition or pushback.
Okay.
Your calls resume coming back.
That's right, a man, a legend, a way of life.
Back to the phones we go.
This is Madeline in Omaha, 22 years old.
Madeline, I'm glad you waited.
Great to have you here.
Hi.
Rush Limbaugh, it is such an honor to talk to you.
You have no idea.
Hey, listen, I have so much to rant about but I know I can't.
No go ahead, go for it.
It's open line Friday.
That's what it's all for.
Have at it.
There's a there's a couple things.
Um I'm 22 years old.
I just graduated college at Nebraska and I grew up listening to you literally every day.
I was the kid who never listened to music.
My mom raised me on you since I was one year old.
And um so I'm just as obsessed with you as she is.
She uh calls you her boyfriend.
And when you got married she was so mad that she um glued a picture of her head on your wife's head and and she framed it.
And you know we were the family we bought all the club getmo stuff, took pictures I think we made your website one year.
And um anyway, so that's that my second thing is I made it through college still a Republican, still conservative and I cannot tell you how many people drove me up the wall with their hippie dippy, you know, liberal thoughts and ideas.
I you know I was in a sorority and these two girls were just the biggest hippies and you know all about conserving the environment and protecting animals.
And you know the other thing is I don't understand how people can vote Democrat because like do they not understand Obamacare and do they not understand like their beliefs.
The other thing Hillary Clinton I saw her on TV the other day saying she's going to take CEO's money and give it to the employees underneath her.
My dad is a CEO of a real estate company and he he would die.
I mean he it took him forty years to get where he is now can you imagine that as far as Hillary's concern he stole everything along the way to get there.
Yeah.
So you're frustrated by the way other students at college thinking well join join join join the club.
We all are we all are and we all are searching for reasons to explain it and the reason why we do that's because we'd all love to be able to bring them a uh straighten them out.
We'd all like to be able to teach them how they're wrong and and and help them out and and part of that is understanding what is it that seduces them in the first place.
I think I have pretty good idea how it all happens.
Yeah.
Uh it's it's all liberalism's an emotion based thing.
It's based on caring it's based on thinking you care more than anybody else it's based on compassion.
It isn't based on results.
It's not based on solutions.
It isn't based on fixing anything.
It's based on caring about everything.
You combine that with the fact that your girls you're talking about the women you're talking about have grown up hearing that the Republican Party are racist and they're sexists and they're bigots and they conduct a war on women and they believe all this because they happen to believe the people that have made them think what they think now.
And Rush that's why it's that's why it's frustrating because I'm it's frustrating to be a Republican because they call me racist and you know I'm against you know immigration I'm dating a black person.
You know, if that's not enough of a you know a verification, a confirmation that I'm not racist, I don't know.
It won't matter.
It would it will look at I I had it the preacher at at the wedding that your mom got so mad at was black.
Um I had I had a guy come up to me the next day.
We were all having brunch, and a guy came up to me who was at the wedding.
He said, you know what?
I uh people would not believe this.
Here you are, Rushland boy.
You got he's he cited all of the diversity that took place in the wedding, including with the black preacher.
Nobody would believe it.
The point is it doesn't matter.
Take it, you know who the Koch brothers are.
I don't.
The Koch brothers are famous wealthy libertarians, coke industries out of Wichita.
They are perceived to be Republicans.
They're the they're one of the few wealthy people that do not donate to Democrats.
They're some of the biggest philanthropists.
I know them.
David Koch in New York donated something like 25 million dollars to a hospital in New York City.
The nurses union at the hospital demanded that the hospital give it back because David Koch only gave the money to cover up the fact that he's a hater and a racist.
So there's no act of goodwill, no act of kindness that you can engage in that's gonna persuade these people.
Now, uh here's the here's the thing.
Madeline, this is gonna be very hard.
Now actually it probably won't be because you've pulled it off this far.
Whatever you do, I'm begging, do not live your life focused either partially or fully on changing these people's attitudes about you.
They are the one with the problem, not you.
You're not the one who has to change anything about yourself.
If they have a problem with you, it's their problem, not you.
They're the ones who are prejudiced.
They're the ones who are closed-minded.
They're the ones who are in many cases smug and arrogant and conceited.
You're not, and do not you know, learn to laugh at it and stay the course.
Live your life the way you do, and let that be the example.
I love it.
Thank you, Rush.
You know, I have one more thing to tell you.
Yeah.
Um, I graduated a broadcasting major and I worked for the Big Ten Network, so from one broadcaster to another, I really, really respect you.
Well, thank you very much.
I now that I really appreciate.
That because you you probably know more than most.
Just by virtue of your broadcast training at the uh University of Nebraska, what goes on here?
Yep, I do know a lot.
No, tell me.
Oh, you said I know a lot.
Well, yes.
Oh, I do I do know a lot, yes.
I thought you said you know what?
I'm sorry.
I thought you were waiting to tell me something.
Well, look, you you you you have been so great.
Uh would you like a new iPhone?
Yes, I would.
Would you?
And I now uh Brian, would you make a quick trip back there?
See if I got I think all I've got are the big ones, six plus.
And I've found that women are not big fans of the six plus because you can't use it one-handed.
Yeah.
Six plus is too big for you.
Doesn't matter.
I'll get you.
Okay.
It's a little big for you, a little too big.
Five and a half inch screen too big for you.
I'll use whatever.
We do.
All right.
Now, is your carrier ATT or uh Verizon?
It's Verizon.
We're in Fat City.
I just happened to have an iPhone 6 and Verizon right back there with your name on it.
Yay!
Yes, sir.
Okay, so I want you to hang on, Mr. Snurden and get the address we can ship this thing out to you.
We hopefully get it to you tomorrow if you're gonna be home.
Wherever you're gonna be.
And I can't I can't thank you enough.
I really appreciate all the kind things.
I'm uh that you're of course.
We love you, Rush.
Hang in there.
Do not and remember the Republican Party's in a mess because it's trying to change what the left thinks of them.
Do not do that.
You do not have to do anything to justify what you think.
That's on them.
Put that onus right back on it.
When they say, how in the world could you're rejoiner is I think you need to answer that question about yourself.
You need to hit them right between the eyes with common sense and logic, even though it won't permeate.
You know, environmentalism, climate change, uh great.
Do you really bel ask them, do you really believe, do you really believe that driving SUVs can destroy this magnificent creation of God?
Ask them that.
Just see what they say.
Have fun with it.
But don't acquiesce to them back after this.
And we continue an open line Friday, Rush Limbaugh on the afternoon on the EIB net.
Well, it's still morning out there on the left coast.
Here's Maya, Kansas City, Missouri.
It's great to have you.
Hi.
Hi, you know, I just wanted to tell you first of all that you are majorly responsible for my uh conservative attitudes today.
Um I met I I talked to you the first time in 1994, and uh I had called you on the show because I had gotten on the computer, which was then called the BBS, and started carrying this conversation on about blacks being independent and not being victims.
I got into a major argument with five or six other people, all of them as college educated as I am, they proceeded to call me all kinds of racists and and hateful person, and they became doubly angry when they found out that I was black.
Oh.
So and this was 1994.
Now, and so I had called you and told you about this, and you went on to explain how uh confused and bottom line, utterly stupid liberals can be about these type of things.
And it actually wound up in the paper.
Um after a while it Wait, wait, wait, wait, which paper?
Oh, uh it came it wound up in the LA Times.
I was in California at the time, and I was also attending Cal State Fullerton.
No kidding.
LA Times wrote about this.
Cool.
Absolutely.
Yeah, it was only about a paragraph long because everybody found out who I was and uh the school was interested, and and so they wanted to know what was going on with this black person who was writing op ed pieces in Cal State Fullerton, telling people to do things like pull their pants up and you know you know,
you you remember the million man, the million man march and the whole bit, and I was writing and saying maybe you guys ought to march your way back to your neighborhoods, get a job and take care of your children.
I remember no wonder you were a target.
Oh, yeah, it was it was quite enjoyable in a high point of my c uh my by the way, we now know that Obama was there.
Obama was at the million men march or he was part of it, uh organizer somehow.
He was part of the thing.
I know I remember from something I saw during show prep.
I have a feeling that in time we're going to see his face popping up in all events, in a lot of events, kind of like uh observers in that TV sci-fi show, uh fringe or whatever it is.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Right.
Yeah, but Obama was r was around quite a bit back then as well.
Um I will say one more thing.
Yes, I'm sorry.
The Chum gang.
He was part of the Chum gang back then.
That didn't stay in Hawaii, you know.
He that that traveled with him.
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
Uh stoners.
They all know about this.
It's just that, and that's part of my confusion here is because everything that we're talking about now, I know for a fact that each men standing on that podium, Republican, had to know who Obama was from from the beginning.
But their fear was that to out him would uh uh destroy their political career.
Okay, hold it right there.
That not Maya, let the you've gotten to the point here, and I want to explore this because this is let me let's throw some names out to to make this more easily understood by by people.
Let's go back to shortly after Obama was elected.
There's a dinner party at George Will's house, and it was at that dinner party that or maybe it was before him.
David Brooks said, you know what, this man's crease in his slacks tells me that his fastidiousness eminently qualifies him to be president, and that ever and people, other conservatives that dinner started raving about his intellect and all this, and your theory is that because he was one of them, underwent from the tribe of overintellectualized, over educated Ivy Leaguers that they couldn't condemn him without condemning themselves, right?
Exactly.
I mean, I've been I've gone through this.
I went through school uh sitting around liberals, not trying to be one and getting in trouble for not trying to be one.
As a matter of fact, my husband used to say she's not really a liberal.
She's she's conservative.
It's just that she's being taught in liberal schools.
And that's when it occurred to me that for the last 10, 15, 20 years, we've been watching Republican candidates, politicians, embracing all of the theories, the catchphrases, the sound bites that have caught liberals' eyes.
They're trying to play with the play according to their rules, and don't, and they have no clue that what's really happening is they've already been conditioned and indoctrinalized.
Well, there are some exceptions.
Ted Cruz is Harvard, he's Ivy League to a T, but he came out unaffected.
But I get you.
He came out unaffected, but I'm afraid for him because of the fact that with Ted Cruz, anyone who is as important as he is is going to automatically isolate himself.
I mean, everyone, it's almost like piranhas.
We love it it we're disgusted when we see the piranhas in the fish tank eating at each other.
Uh but when we kind of look on it closely, we recognize that it's not always the weakest person that's going to lose.
Sometimes it's going to be the most principled, and that's why we need to be careful about Ted Cruz, because these other guys, they will pull every trick out of the liberal suitcase in order to uh bring him down to a level where they can control him.
And that's my concern.
Well, he's resisted it so far, and he's resisted it powerfully and admirably.
But I don't want to lose sight of your primary point here.
Your primary, your she what folks, what she's saying is the reason why there are fewer and fewer differences inside the beltway inside Washington, political establishment between Republicans and Democrats is they're all practically identically educated.
They come out of the Ivy League, they're taught to speak the same way.
The language of politics, they're taught to think the same way.
And and they can't criticize others from the class without criticizing themselves, and so they don't.
And they're Thomas Sowell said that himself.
That's what the that's what his book, Vision of the Anointed, was basically all about.
That's right.
That's right.
They referred to the liberals as, you know, basically people with a vision.
And he always referred to the conservatives who had been taught by these same professors as the benighted, uh, the tragic, okay, the tragic hero.
Uh uh it's the vision of the anointed.
They become over-educated or over-intellectualized, and they they learn the impractical.
And they learn how to speak in practically, or I'm sorry, that in practical.
They learn to do the double speak.
Well, they they might be able to speak in ways that convey intelligence, but they're actually real-world street smart dumb.
Or ignorant.
Let me use ignorant.
That's why I think another way of saying this is you joke they need a visa to go to Iowa.
Because they really don't know what goes on there.
It's like a foreign country.
Yeah, I have a t-shirt that I made that I've been giving out to some friends of mine, and basically what it says is that liberalism is what smart looks like to stupid people.
