Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush twenty-four-seven podcast.
It's just past midday on America's East Coast, uh, which means it's just past seven in the morning in Hawaii, uh, and at more or less exactly this moment, three quarters of a century ago, two young men, uh Private George Elliott and Private Joe Lockhard were on top of a cliff at Opama with nothing but a couple of thousand miles of ocean to look at.
Uh they weren't actually watching the water, they were in a monitoring van.
Radar was in its infancy back then.
In fact, uh the acronym Radio Detection and Ranging Radar uh had only been coined the previous year, nineteen forty.
It wasn't yet a word, and uh these guys' main responsibility was not to use the equipment but to guard it to make sure that no curious locals swung by to monkey with it or steal it or smash it.
Uh and they'd been up uh since a little before four AM, and their end and and their shift had ended at 7 a.m., about uh six minutes ago.
Um they were there to monitor the system as this or that American plane took off for a training run at Dawn's First Light.
Joe Lockhard, nineteen years old, uh was from Williamsport, Pennsylvania.
He was in charge, so he got to run the oscilloscope.
Uh George Elliott, twenty-three years old, uh was from Chicago, Illinois, and he was the new guy, so he had to track uh the occasional plane's position and enter it in a log.
That was the boring part of the job, uh no playing around on the fancy new equipment.
And so the shift ended, and because George was the new kid, he asked Joe if he could get to practice on on the on the cool gear.
Um and radar in those days wasn't a blip on a screen like it uh like it is now.
It it was an oscilloscope.
And um a plane showed up uh as a little spike uh rising out of a flat line, uh a bit like the monitor at the end of your hospital bed.
And so George and Joe swapped chairs, and thus the quirks of fate, they might have just cleared off at the end of the shift, might have just gone for breakfast, and the machine would have been switched off.
Um instead, Joe left it on, and as George settled into his seat, he saw the oscilloscope spike.
And not just any sky spike, but the largest spike he or Joe had ever seen.
Not one plane or two on a training run, not three planes or five or ten or twenty, but thirty, no forty, fifty planes, more, and all heading their way.
And so began a day that will live in infamy.
At this very hour, seventy-five years ago, December seventh, nineteen forty-one.
Rush is out today.
He'll be back tomorrow.
Uh, but this is Mark Stein, your undocumented anchor man, honored to be here on the anniversary of one of the great hinge moments of history.
The most consequential decision of the twentieth century was uh Winston Churchill's after the fall of France in May nineteen forty, uh, that the British Empire would not sue for peace with Germany but would fight on alone in hopes that America could be persuaded to join the war.
And the most consequential act of the twentieth century came eighteen months later.
The Japanese Empire's attack on Pearl Harbor, which brought about Churchill's wish and brought uh the United States into the war.
And all of us born since nineteen forty five, live in the world, those two decisions ushered in.
1800-282-2882 is the number to call to be part of America's number one radio show.
We will talk about the America that was, the America that is, and the America that can be on a day for honoring the past, acknowledging the present, and committing ourselves to the future.
There's a little bit of controversy attaching to the anniversary observances.
Later this month, President Obama and the Japanese Prime Minister uh Shinzo Abe will be in Hawaii, and people think Mr. Abe ought to apologize for Pearl Harbor, uh, and apparently he has no plans to.
Um just just for the record, Shinzo Abe didn't bomb Pearl Harbor, and I'm not generally in favor of politicians apologizing for things they didn't do, which is very much the fashion of our time.
Uh Tony Blair apologized for the Irish potato famine and Bill Clinton apologized for slavery, and Hillary Clinton apologized to the people of Guatemala, because way back when the US government infected Guatemalan mental patients with syphilis and gonorrhea.
And uh and just for the record, Tony Blair uh didn't cause the Irish potato famine, and Bill Clinton isn't responsible for slavery, and Hillary Clinton never gave anybody civilis and gonorrhea.
Bill Clinton is another matter on that, and uh that's something he might apologize for.
Apologizing for stuff you didn't do is an act of uh moral narcissism, and uh in the case of all the politicians I just mentioned there, they've all got plenty of stuff they did on their own uh that's worth apologizing uh for as opposed to apologizing for things that some predecessor of yours uh did uh in the middle of the last century or the middle of the century before that.
So uh I don't uh I think that is that is an act of uh moral narcissism, an act of uh exhibitionism, and I'm not bothered uh by that one way or the other.
But if you feel differently, do give us a call.
1-800-2882 is the number to call if you want to be uh on America's uh number one radio show.
There's lots of uh interesting things uh happening out there.
The uh the the Liberals seem not to be taking uh to the new world terribly well.
There's now talk uh even as these recounts, the last I heard from the Michigan was it the Wisconsin recount is that Trump was actually up nineteen votes.
Uh so they're now pinning their hopes that the uh Electoral College will produce a slew of faithless electors.
Uh they're calling themselves Hamilton electors, trying to persuade Republican electors uh to defeat uh Donald Trump and toss uh the decision on who should be next president into the House in in hopes that it will produce a victory for John Kasich or Mitt Romney or John Huntsman or whoever the hell it it happens it happens to be.
Uh so we can talk about that.
1-800-282-2882.
Trevor Noah, uh who hosts the Daily Show, uh who knew?
But uh Trevor Noah, who uh uh is a uh comedian from South Africa and uh was uh uh signed to take over the Daily Show from John Stewart, has said, let's not be divided, because divided people are easier to rule.
And uh so he doesn't want he wants to bring us all together.
He thinks the nation should unite in the cause of uh hating Trump or whatever.
No, no, I don't know what he is.
He's like trying some outreach uh in the hopes that we can all be friends.
There's continued speculation on who is going to be Donald Trump's Secretary of State.
Rush was talking about this, that uh Trump is operating under Machiavellian principles that uh keep your friends close but keep your enemies closer, and uh uh and hanging uh the collective responsibility for the next four years uh uh around the necks of all the guys who tried to sabotage him is Trump's way of doing that.
I'm not so sure about that.
And if you think that the uh responsibility of the Secretary of State in a Trump administration should be to effect the foreign policy on which Trump campaigned, then you might feel uh differently about that.
So call us and talk about that too.
1-800-282-2882.
The health insurers are now issuing a list of their demands if Obamacare is killed.
Now, bear in mind that most of these health insurers have started leaving the market, and that actually they are no longer insurers.
They are some kind of strange cartel whose prices bear no relation to the actuarial chances of you getting any particular disease or anything.
Uh but some of them have benefited from the Obamacare gravy train, and uh they're happy to charge more and more money with higher and higher deductibles for essentially worthless plans that only if you're incredibly sick uh will you ever get to avail yourself of in the in in the closing months of the year, November and December.
Then January, you're back to the start of your big new uh five figure deductible or whatever it is.
But the but apparently the health insurers are now issuing a warning shot to Republicans.
Uh so just as these they got on board the Obamacare train, and they deserve to take a hit, actually, for going along with that, because they turned the term insurance into something that is no longer insurance in any meaningful sense.
Uh but uh but we will talk about that too in the three hours to come, one eight hundred two eight two eight eight two.
And whether uh we will uh we will see any progress made between Donald Trump and tech leaders.
The one group of people who haven't got anywhere near the Trump train are the Silicon Valley guys, and he's apparently sitting down with them today.
They are more uniformly hostile to him than any other demographic group you can name.
Um more than African Americans or millennials or the transgendered Silicon Valley is like one hundred percent anti Trump uh and uh and they uh uh essentially uh have had have declined to warm up to him in the weeks since the election.
Uh so the question here is what are they going to be meeting about and why is it important, and is it part of this more this fake news thing where where the media essentially uh reacted to totally screwing up their coverage of the election, misleading their readers, and traumatizing their poor readers.
I mean, we're now hearing uh that uh that that that Hillary supporters uh uh are no longer able to engage in sexual congress or or uh they're putting on weight uh all because the Trump victory has come as such a shock to them.
Uh so there's no end to the the disaster that has been inflicted on these poor poor liberal readers by believing what their newspaper editors told them.
And instead the media companies now doubling down with all this fake news stuff, we've got to get uh control of fake news, fake news this, fake news that fake news is the the approved term for the stuff that the uh so-called media does not want to cover for real news that the media does not want to cover.
That's what they mean by fake news.
Just as uh when they say Donald Trump is, quote, a divisive figure, it means he keeps proposing things that are in danger of being hugely popular, like building a wall on the Mexican border or ending Muslim immigration to the United States.
Uh that's the problem.
And uh and now he's meeting with the Silicon Valley uh companies to see where they're gonna go.
But where don't expect anything to come of the out of that meeting.
He might just be there to ball them out, like he did with the media when he called them all to Trump Tower.
Uh 1-800-282-2882, we will talk about all that in the hours to come on this historic day, seventy-five years ago, this very hour, two young American privates on a very primitive radar system saw the biggest spike in activity that they had ever seen on that screen,
as dozens of Japanese planes emerged approximately a hundred and thirty miles off the North Shore in Hawaii.
Mark Stein in Farush will take all your calls straight ahead.
Mark Stein in Farush on the EIB network.
I I mentioned that uh people seem to be going a little bit nutty since the the result of uh the election.
Uh there was there was a piece in the Washington Post the other day uh by uh Monica Hess and Dan Zack about whether uh uh a particular haircut that the uh that the the young people favor uh is the is the haircut for a hipster or for a Nazi.
The headline in the Washington Post, does this haircut make me look like a Nazi?
And uh you may have seen this, like a lot of the young guys have it.
It's short on the sides and the back, and it's long on the top, so it makes you Look a bit like a mushroom or a or a muffin, I guess, um, because you got this this little bit on the top that's overhanging, and then these short sides and short back.
And it's supposed to be a hipster haircut.
Uh and and the picture in the Washington Post shows on the one hand these young uh metrosexual hipsters leaving their soul cycle classes in their I'm with her Hillary t-shirts, and then next to it is like these young,
supposed white nationalist, white supremacists, neo-Nazi Trump supporters leaving some event in Washington, DC, uh where they went hail Trump, and these two groups of young men have got the exact same haircut.
And so the Washington Post has devoted a big in-depth analysis to trying to discover whether this haircut is a hipster haircut or whether it's a new uh Nazi haircut.
Because you can see how confusing it is.
You m you might see a bunch of people walking down the street, and you might think they're hipsters.
You might think they're hipster Hillary supporters, Bernie supporters, uh, but they might be Nazi Trump supporters.
And that's the problem for everyone.
If you're a hipster, uh if you're one of these strange uh people who likes these these hipster men, these pajama boys, and you see this hipster haircut, uh, and it turns out in fact that it's a Nazi haircut, and all the hipsters are secretly Nazis.
Well, what about it from the other side?
If you're Trump and you're plotting the new Trump Reich, and all the fellows you think are the young Nazis and are gonna be your Trump youth, and they're gonna be singing Tomorrow Belongs to me, and in fact they're not Nazis, uh, because they're in fact secretly hipsters.
So the Washington Post uh has a big in-depth analysis called Does This Haircut Make Me Look Like a Nazi?
And in fact, while we're thinking of uh uh Pearl Harbor today and uh the fall of France in May 1940, we should remember that Neville Chamberlain uh said when he landed uh at Hendon Aerodrome with Peace in Our Time, said, I have here a piece of paper from Herr Hitler, Herr Hitler.
Hitler understood the power of hair.
And uh the Washington Post is concerned, are the hipsters secretly Nazis or are all the Nazis secretly hipsters?
We don't know.
But they have the exact same haircut.
Uh and this is the kind of this is the way the Washington Post and Washington are gathered I understand I'm a foreigner, I may not be up to speed here, but I gather this is America's capital city, and this is the newspaper of record of the capital city of the global hyperpower, and they're terrified lest what they thought was a hipster haircut is in fact secretly a Nazi haircut.
And all the little pajama boys, all they're sitting with their mugs of cocoa in their big onesies, their plaid onesies, sipping their cocoa and advertising Obamacare.
If all the hipsters with the hipster haircuts are secretly Nazis.
I'll add another wrinkle to this too.
I was in Germany over the summer, and I noticed that all the uh I was in uh Reutlingen, and I I noticed that uh all the young Muslim men also have that same.
All the young Muslim men uh claiming to be Syrian refugees, and in fact not in the least bit Syrian and not refugees, uh, but they all had that same thing, shaved at the back and sides, and then with that sort of uh mushroom effect on top, uh like all florid on the top and uh and a little thing.
And uh the hairdresser I had said, yeah, all the Muslim uh guys come uh come in for that, and they all walk down.
So it could be that all the Syrian refugees are in fact pajama boy hipsters, or it could be that all the pajama boy hipsters are all Trump Nazis, or it could be that all the Trump Nazis are Syrian refugees.
We don't know.
But the Washington Post is doing its in-depth analysis uh on this very issue uh uh and they're burning up.
By the way, have you seen this is this is I put this in the into the uh Mullers Can't Nuke Us Soon Enough files.
Uh a couple of these the kind of hipsters uh with the uh with the pyjama boy haircuts have decided to do a safe space version of baby it's cold outside.
And we will we will talk about that more because it is one of those small signs of cultural collapse.
Um and instead the first lines are uh you know you hear it all the time at this time of year.
I really can't stay, but baby it's cold outside.
Instead, they're doing I really can't stay.
Well, baby, I'm fine with that.
That's the death of the song.
That's the end of the song right there.
The new safe space version of Baby It's Cold Outside.
The left wreck every single thing they touch.
Write a song of your own.
If you want a safe space song, write your own safe space song.
Some of us are unhappy in the uh quite happy to be in the unsafe space.
That's called life.
Leave that song alone and write some limp, wet, metrosexual, dweeby pajama boy song of your own instead of uh instead of monkeying with an American classic.
Uh this is Mark Stein for Rush, more straight ahead.
Yeah, great to be with you.
Baby It's Cold Outside has had to be rewritten to conform.
Because the the uh to millennials it's about rape.
Uh and uh and so this new version that these two were these people where they were these people from uh Minnesota, is it?
It's like a a boy and girl singer from Minnesota, and their their new version of Baby It's Cold Outside is I really can't stay.
Oh baby, I'm fine with that.
I ought to say no, no, no.
I really respect your right to say no.
That's an actual lyric from this rewritten version of Baby It's Cold Outside.
So uh the whole idea, baby it's cold outside, is you don't try to talk now because they think it's a rapey, rapey rapey rapey song, and that the guy is trying to uh uh to pressure the girl into staying against her will.
So instead, in the new version, uh he sends her out into a blizzard uh to get uh raped by a uh guy pretending to be a Syrian refugee uh who is in fact from Yemen.
Uh and that's the new ver that's the new politically correct version of Baby It's Cold Outside.
1-800-282-2882.
Um this generation really is the lamest generation.
If you are a millennial and you can't handle Baby It's Cold Outside, you're in the same category as Sayb Katoob, the uh the intellectual colossus behind the Muslim Brotherhood and Al Qaeda.
Because when that song came out at 1948, he was at a church dance in Greeley, Colorado, which was a dry town back then, and uh he was he was uh on some kind of student visa in the United States from Egypt, and they played Baby It's Cold Outside,
introduced by Esther Phillips and Ricardo Montalban, and he watched uh these couples dancing around to them, and he said the sight of the bare arms and bare legs as these couples writhed around touching each other to baby it's cold outside, absolutely disgusted to him, disgusted him.
And he went back to Egypt and he became the intellectual powerhouse of the Muslim Brotherhood, uh, which led to Al-Qaeda, which led to Osama bin Laden, which led to the Taliban, which led to the global jihad, all of which can be pinned on Saeb Katob's reaction to Baby It's Cold Outside.
Uh and so if you're a millennial who wants to rewrite this song because you too are offended by it, you're in the same category as the nutball who started the global jihad.
But a lot of nuttiness around at the moment.
Uh Joy Behar on The View asks, have you noticed that your wife is disgusted by the sight of you lately?
And uh she was reporting on a therapist who said that women have lost their sex drive since Trump won.
They don't want to be grabbed by anything.
Baby, it's cold inside since Trump got elected.
The bedroom backlash uh maybe causing electile dysfunction, according to Joy uh according to Joy Behart.
Madonna.
Madonna has not had a decent night's sleep uh since Trump got elected.
And that's not for the reason you might think, by the way.
Madonna was promising uh to perform oral sex on everybody who voted for Hillary.
And there are many theories about the election, but most demographic uh cephalogical analysts agree that it was Madonna promising to perform oral sex on Hillary voters, that in fact uh turned the Rust belt into Trump country.
Wisconsin m Michigan no no she was going on the electoral college college vote mike.
Not the popular vote, because the popular vote she's still got, I think she's it's gonna be a long time.
She'll be halfway to the midterms before she's through fulfilling her electoral promise.
No, but that's what cost uh Hillary the rust belt vote.
I mean I I haven't seen I think that's one reason for the recount because uh they want to check that uh there's there's a special thing.
They've got like your hanging Chads and your dimple Chads and all the rest of it.
So you got your Chad for Hillary, you've got your Chad for Trump, you got your Chad for Jill Stein, uh you've got your Chad for Gary Johnson, and the and then there was a special Chad uh that said in the event that uh Hillary wins, I do not want Madonna to come and perform oral sex on me.
It's the equivalent of an organ donor card.
It's an organ non donor card.
You don't want to donate your organ to Madonna and uh they there's some question about whether this is a proper thing to have on the ballot that you can opt out that Democrats uh should be able to opt out of having Madonna perform a sex act on them.
But anyway, the the Madonna now says she's she uh she has not had any sleep since the election which if she's fulfilling her electoral promise is entirely understandable.
But the uh but there's also uh uh uh a stories that apparently blondes are all going brunette because they don't want to be mistaken for Donald Trump.
All over America women are saying I don't want to be mistaken uh for Donald Trump and they are leaving their blonde locks on the floor of the hair salon.
So these are all reactions uh to what has happened in the US election.
Let us go to James in Columbia, South Carolina.
You're first up on the Rush Limbaugh show today.
Great to have you with us, James.
Can you hear me?
Hello?
Yeah I can hear you.
You're live on the air, James.
Yeah hi um I just had a question of you mentioned earlier about the was 150 miles away when they started on radar, right?
Right, right.
Okay so hundred and hundred and thirty pairs weren't at Pearl Harbor.
Would you think we'd be able to defend that if they even if they he did that warning?
No, no, I mean the there's they weren't sure they didn't quite believe what they'd seen as I understand it and they were unsure initially whether it was some kind of malfunction in the machine because the the machine uh had never expected to register something that big and and so they stopped and talked about what they should do about it before eventually calling it in.
I don't believe that time uh would have made any difference to to the outcome of what happened if they had that time to prepare it wouldn't have made a difference you think I don't I don't I don't th I don't think so.
I mean there's all kinds of there's all kinds of theories about Pearl Harbor the uh the the uh great American uh cryptologist uh who had reported that the Japanese were planning a surprise attack and then I think he went off uh on a cruise uh a cruise trip uh having given the news to uh to to his superiors and he was surprised then when he heard on the radio that Pearl Harbor had been attacked.
He assumed uh that they'd been planning for it and everything had been moved out of the way.
There's there's uh the stories like that and then there's uh the the reaction of people closer to the moment like this what would have happened if they'd called two minutes earlier and whatever.
But the the the fact was uh that the the ships were all there they made one big collective target uh the carriers that could have uh that might have helped were all at sea uh and I don't believe there would have been much of a difference to the outcome on the day.
What what and and I'm not sure where the I'm not sure uh going back and playing what if scenarios is is very is very uh is very useful.
In the end it was a different kind of America.
Four months after Pearl Harbor, it was the doolittle raid and the doolittle raid had not terribly great military significance, but it exemplified that America was audacious and daring to push back.
Again, if you if you look at it, it's December 1941, three and a half years from Pearl Harbor to the Japanese surrender.
We are now fifteen years away from 911 in which 50% more people died.
And we have not done what they did at Pearl Harbor, which is determine to impose massive overwhelming defeat on your enemy.
Because if the enemy doesn't know he's been defeated, he quite reasonably concludes that he hasn't been defeated.
And when the uh when when the uh Americans determined to to actually extinguish the ideology that spurred uh the attack on Pearl Harbor uh that's that's what matters that's what matters that you defeat the ideology and it's not and that's something that's something bigger than just uh toppling the Taliban because toppling the Taliban and building new schoolhouses.
I don't know how much money we, the American taxpayers spent on building schoolhouses in Afghanistan.
But the buildings are great and what's being taught in them is complete rubbish because we're s we're still teaching these the people of Afghanistan effectively the same the same civilizational backwardness that supported the Taliban and that ultimately led the Taliban to allow America's enemies to launch a devastating attack from 9 11.
But it's the swiftness it's the ability you you look at fifteen years on nine December nineteen forty one you're like nineteen fifty six.
By nineteen fifty six America and Japan had patched up their quarrels if you look at I caught a clip of an old Dinah Shaw show from nineteen fifty eight and she had a cute little Japanese cigar on and all and and diners all being sweet and practicing f uh phrases in Japanese.
And the only reason she was able to do that was because America had inflicted total defeat on Japan uh total ideological defeat on Japan on Japan.
They had humiliated its leadership class they had destroyed Japanese militarism they had taken an emperor who claimed to be a sun god an emperor who claimed to be a god and turned him into an ordinary constitutional monarch in a suit and they had inflicted massive ideological defeat.
And we can't even you know what we can't do in three and a half years we can't even prosecute Major Hassan in that time it took longer to to bring Major Hassan before a military tribunal than the time between Pearl Harbor and VJ Day and the Japanese surrender.
And Major Hassan admitted he'd done it.
He'd say he stood up on the first day of his trial and said, the evidence will show I am the shooter.
Let the record show that is my gun.
He had Soldier of Allo on his business card.
He said, I did it.
Yes, I did it, Your Honor.
Strap me down.
Shoot the juice to me, Bruce.
I'm ready for my virgins.
And the judge and the prosecutor and the defense lawyers all said, Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
Pay no attention to the perpetrator.
we want to delay this for another few years.
You can't even bring one soldier of Allah to justice in the time it took to get from Pearl Harbor to VJ Day.
That's how America has changed since Pearl Harbor.
And that's what I meant at the top of the show it's not good.
It's not good if to go into and this is part of the reason why Trump won and why Jeb Bush and John Kasich and these fellas didn't.
Trump has written off basically the George W. Bush era he said I don't need another fifteen years of ineffectual colonial policing in some god awful piece of real estate nobody except a few inbred goat herds gives a monkeys about.
and he and the reason he was able to make that argument that these wars have been a waste of time is because they were not prosecuted in the way that war was prosecuted in December 1941.
Mark Stein in for us, thanks for your call, James.
We will take more of your calls straight ahead on the Rush Limbaugh.
Mark Stein in for Rush on the EIB network on this uh historic day.
Um I I really enjoyed uh Donald J. Trump's uh tweet the other day about Air Force Air Force One.
Actually, before I get to the A Force One tweet, I love this insanity over the over the Taiwanese president.
By the by the way, i if you're if you are any uh heads of government, heads of state out there, and you want to call and be on the show, 1-800-282-2882, we'd love to hear from you.
But we won't.
We're being responsible.
We're not like Trump here.
We won't take a call from the President of Taiwan because all the smart people say uh that if you uh take a call from the president of Taiwan, it will upset the Chinese Politburo sufficiently that it will start World War III.
So we will have a whole new Pearl Harbor on the uh three quarters of a century anniversary of the old Pearl Harbor because the new Asian superpower will be declaring war by launching a sneak attack uh on Donald J. Trump's long distance ATT calling plan.
And that's that's what all the smart people are telling us.
And there's an even better variation of this.
People are saying, well, who put him up to this?
Who put him up to this?
And the story in the New York Times is that Bob Dole, Bob Dole, apparently, who is uh a lobbyist, uh, or as he's described in the uh in the New York Times, uh the agent of a foreign power, Bob Dole is apparently, according to the New York Times, he's in the pay uh of Taiwan, and he has had months of secret negotiations.
Bob Dole.
If you've been wondering what he's been doing since the Viagra ads went off the air, he's been working for the government of Taiwan, and he's managed to do for Taiwan what he did for Viagra.
Taiwan is up and shooting out through the roof.
And after months of negotiation, he prevailed upon Donald J. Trump to take a call from the President of Taiwan.
This is nuts.
Trump, uh, even before he entered the presidential race, has spent years saying uh to China uh that things are gonna change, that China's uh screwing us on this, they're screwing us on that, he's gonna get China across the table, he's gonna tell them how it's gonna be.
China, China, China, China, China, we lose to China, China gets the better of us, Chinese deals, terrible negotiations.
Uh Trump, Trump, the core, the core, the thing he reverts to when he's asked about things he's you know not up to speed on, doesn't care about, he always reverts to China.
The idea that it took Bob Dole, oh, oh, Mr. Trump, I'd like you to take a call uh from Taiwan.
It's somewhere near China.
Hey, China, what's that?
I've never heard of China.
What do you mean?
What are you on about?
Uh, but according to the New York Times, Bob Dole.
Bob Dole is back, and he's secretly pulling the strings of the Trump administration.
Trump intended to reorient relations with China.
He's not interested in kowtowing to China, uh, to use a good old Chinese word.
He is not interested in prostrating himself before them.
Uh, and if the Chinese are gonna get twitchy uh and uh upset about everything and demand that uh save face, say face saving, uh, which is another Chinese concept, it ought to be the overriding priority of U.S. foreign policy.
There is a new sheriff in town, and it isn't Bob Dole.
Mark Stein in for Rush, lots more still to come.
Hey, Rush is out today, but do not worry.
You need not be discombobulated by sinister foreign guest hosts if you go to Rush Limbaugh.com and take out a rush 24 7 subscription.
