Time Text
Yes, it's great to be with you.
This is your undocumented anchor man, honored to be with you.
Rush will return tomorrow.
Uh he is out today, December seventh, two thousand sixteen, the seventy-fifth anniversary of Pearl Harbor.
Uh and uh just this exact precise hour, three quarters of a century ago, they were scrambling uh across the territory of Hawaii as Japanese airplanes began the attack, as we discussed in the previous hour.
Uh the the on the completely other side of uh actually it's maybe not the other side because it also involves a uh a defeat and a stunning uh uh setback.
Uh the Hill reports that Hillary Clinton is to throw a thank you party for millionaire donors.
Can you imagine?
Can you imagine if you actually did give a million dollars to the Hillary Clinton campaign, how eager you would be to go to a thank you party for her basically just uh tossing it in the potomac and washing watching it float out to sea.
Uh but Hillary Clinton, who spent actually, she didn't realize uh she d she didn't realize that uh uh victory in the election was uh not just about fundraising.
Apparently you have to you don't you don't just go uh to Beverly Hills and Malibu uh and to the Hamptons and Martha's Vineyard, but apparently there's all these places in between that you're actually supposed to go to occasionally.
And nobody had had her campaign advised her of that, which is why we're now having all these recounts in Wisconsin, because it's not clear in the Constitution that you're meant to go if you're campaigning for president to anywhere except Martha's Vineyard and Malibu uh and the Hamptons.
Uh so now that she's throwing a big thank you party at the Plaza Hotel's Grand Ballroom, where all the little folk like to gather.
It will be on December the fifteenth, and it's expected to feature this is from the Hill.
Hillary lost, and they're still drooling over her.
The party at the Plaza Hotel's Grand Ballroom on December the fifteenth is expected to feature fashion icon Anna Winter.
Ooh.
Investor Alan Patrickov, hedge fund manager Mark Lazary and more, according to the New York Post's page six.
Fashion icon, Anna Winter, will be going to the Hillary Clinton thank you party for chumps who gave over a million dollars to Hillary's campaign.
She is the editor of uh uh Vogue, Anna Winter.
She's the longtime editor of Vogue.
She's a woman dun Satanage, but she still wears bangs like a schoolgirl.
And uh and when you get to a certain age, like Anna Winter's age, uh, those bangs uh look so s look very scary.
I mean, she has scary bangs.
Um they're such scary bangs that John Kerry had a Vietnam flashback.
That's how bad they are.
Uh anyway, uh Anna Winter, fashion icon Anna Winter will be at the Plaza Hotel's Grand Ballroom for the big thank you party uh from Hillary to her millionaire donors.
Because she raised far more money than President elect Donald Trump, as much as one point three billion dollars, according to the Washington Post.
Uh whereas he he was the lowest spending presidential election in modern history.
And I love the way I love I love the last line of this story from the Hill.
But despite her edge in fundraising and in the popular vote, Trump won last month's election via the Electoral College.
Who knew you could do that?
Nobody until Trump came along, nobody apparently had thought to win uh via getting to two hundred and seventy in the electoral college.
All the all the previous time, you know, Polk and Buchanan uh and Chester A. Arthur all won by apparently uh the fundraising edge, because they had fashion icon Anna Winter and some hedge fund guys, and they had a big party at the Plaza Hotel, and they raised more money, uh, and that's how Chester Arthur and Polk and uh Buchanan all won uh the election.
But then and the words of the Hill, despite her edge in fundraising, Trump won Last month's election via the Electoral College.
That's how sneaky he is.
No one that's like that's like Pearl Harbor.
He just snuck up on Hillary via the Electoral College, and that's how he managed to win.
That's how I I think I think this is incredible.
Even though she lost, uh, she's still way cooler than Trump, so that all the cool kids are now going to the Hillary, the Hillary defeat party, the Hillary Wake, the Hillary Post Morton.
They're all going to be there and they're going to toss millions of dollars more at her so she can blow it all on a fabulous party at the Plaza Hotel's Grand Ballroom.
Mark Stein in Forush.
I'm actually coming to you not from the regular Ice Station EIB, but from a new Ice Station EIB that we're trying to get going today.
Uh here uh today, a slight s kind of slightly uh uh bizarro universe ice station EIB.
So if the guest hosting is even more shambolic than usual, it's because we're still uh trying to get uh things that are apparently difficult to acquire, like a clock.
So I've no idea.
It might for all I know the show was off the air uh 45 minutes ago, and I've just been talking uh for too long.
Uh but the reason I've made a slightly different location is because I'm starting a brand new television show, uh which you can read more about if you go to CRTV.com, CRTV.com, a new television show.
And I mentioned when I was here uh just after Thanksgiving that I'd been trying to get a flute player, a world class flute player, a renowned uh jazz flautist.
Uh we had a bit of a discussion on whether it's flutist or flautist uh into the country and it for two hours to just to play just to play a couple of numbers and the paperwork I have to go through for this.
The the uh the 36 page forms, and I paid extra for the expedited processing uh from the Vermont Service Center of US citizenship and immigration services.
And on the 15th day, they said this is like really pathetic.
I might actually post it at the website, but they they they they sent back a response, you know, their 15-day premium processing that I paid thousands of dollars for.
They said back some obvious delaying uh tactic, uh, so I've now got to respond to that.
Then they have another 15 days to respond to that.
So it'll be like uh, you know, three years before this world-renowned flautist gets into the country uh to play uh six minutes of music on his flute.
But I'm gonna do it.
I said I said as a joke last time that it would actually be quicker just to fly the guy down to Mexico City and take him across the Rio Grande on a flat bottom skiff, and while we're at it with the family reunification, he could bring all his elderly relatives in and uh stick them on welfare, and he could bring his kids in and stick them in the school district, and they could all clog up the emergency room.
That you can do in nothing flat, but the expedited processing from the Vermont Service Center of USCIS uh takes uh takes an eternity.
For a flute player, so we can keep the flute players out.
That's that's homeland security.
CIS is part of the Department of Homeland Security that you can keep the flute players out.
Uh the other day, because I'm doing a Christmas show for this new television show, and I thought it would be nice to have um just a little bit of uh just a little like Christmas cookery feature.
Christmas cooking.
Everyone likes a bit a bit of that.
Last time I did a uh a Christmas uh cookery, I made a pecan lattice uh pie for Martha Stewart.
And Martha Stewart tasted my pecan lattice pie, the lattice got all a bit mushed up, and she went, mmm, and I went, Oh, come off it.
That's the same mmm you do when you're tasting Hillary Clinton's cookies on the Today Show.
And uh and Martha laughed at that.
It's become an oddly obsolete joke in the last month.
Uh so I didn't want to do the Hillary Clinton cookies thing with Martha Stewart again.
So uh I I wanted to do a Bouche de Noel, you know, this Yule tied log.
It's like a basically like a Swiss roll of spongy cake, and then they put lots of a kind of cream on it, chocolatey cream, and they do it like the shape of a log, and then they stud it with uh like candy mushrooms growing out of the bark of the tree uh and or maybe stick a little bird on the log and it has all kinds of branches, beautiful thing.
And I got uh friends of mine who happened to make uh Patisier's uh uh uh patissary types in Magor, Quebec, just north of the border from here we are.
They drove down to teach me how to do a uh a Yuletide log, a bouche de Noel, as they say in French, and uh we were gonna do it, and they brought one down to be you've all seen cooking shows to be the here's one I made earlier moment, where I I try and do it and it all goes to hell, and then they reach down and say, and here's one I made earlier, and the beautiful Bouche de Noel.
Homeland Security, customs and border protection at North Troy Vermont confiscated the Bouche de Noel as a national security threat at the border, as these Patisiers were trying to bring in the Bouche de Noel for my new television Christmas show.
So we had nothing.
We had the here's what I made earlier moment, and Homeland Security had confiscated the Bouche de Noel, so we had nothing.
We had nothing we'd made earlier.
And if you've ever been, if you're saying North Troy Vermont, I guess that must be one of the busiest uh crossings uh between the US and Canada, it must be the one that all the terrorists use and all the rest of it.
For years and years, it gets about six cars an hour.
Uh and uh for years and years it was just uh Uncle Sam had a one-room hut on one side, and her Majesty the Queen had a one-room hut on the Canadian side, and it's just a little bit of two-lane blacktop in the middle of the woods, and there's a barrier, and when you come by from the Canadian side, they raise the barrier and you go into America, and when you come by from the American side, they raise the barrier and you go into Canada, six cars an hour.
Uh and under the stimulus bill, you can see me talking about this.
I was talking about it at a Republican meeting in Nashua, New Hampshire, and it's on on the internet, and you can look this up.
And I was saying, under the stimulus bill, uh they got a gazillion dollars to turn this nothing little border crossing that gets six cars an hour and drop the sp the Starship Enterprise into the middle of the North Woods.
So Her Majesty the Queen still has a one-room hut on the Canadian side, and there's the Starship Enterprise on the American side.
And you go through the gate and you round a bend in the woods where the old little one room Uncle Sam hut used to be, and there's now the Starship Enterprise, and the road widens to seven lanes, and that's one uh lane for each person crossing the border per hour,
plus a seventh lane for the Department of Homeland Security to go bowling in, or in this case, uh a top security lane on which they ban Bouche de Noel, uh, a traditional uh delicacy in the Francophone world.
So I wondered for years.
When I when I was talking about this at the Nashua thing, the guy running the uh audio visual presentation, I said, this thing can be seen from outer space uh in the middle of the north woods.
It's the biggest thing you've ever seen.
And the guy running the board actually got a Google map picture of this starship enterprise dropped in the middle of the Northwoods from outer space, and he put it up in the screen.
And it says, Welcome to North Troy Vermont.
And in the rubble of our civilization, when the space aliens from the planet Zongo are prowling through the rubble of our world, they will come across the sign.
It'll be like the end of Planet of the Apes, the sign with the welcome to North Troy Vermont sign sticking up out of the rubble, and they will say, Wow, what a mighty empire this North Troy Vermont must have been.
Look at the palace that the mighty Emperor of North Troy Vermont built for himself.
And I always wonder what they'd done with that waste of stimulus money, and they did it uh to ban this Bouch de Noel that uh that my uh pastry chefs were bringing in for my Christmas show.
And and there's people, and conservatives do this too, as well as liberals.
They think, oh, well, if they're that just shows how great American security is.
If they're cracking down on Bouch de Noel, uh then they must all it shows they must be really serious about enforcing the border.
No, it doesn't.
They they're cracking down on Bouche de Noel uh and they're letting in people who want to kill Americans, like the guy at Ohio State University.
A couple of days after I was talking about the world-class flute player that I can't sneak past Homeland Security, uh, this guy at Ohio State University drives his car up onto the sidewalk, stabs a dozen people, and they say he's a Somali refugee.
Actually, he'd been living in Pakistan for seven years after fleeing Somalia.
Uh that was his refuge.
He was a refugee from Somalia and he found refuge in Pakistan.
There was there is no refugee program for people from Pakistan.
It's a nuclear power.
It doesn't need to uh to have refugee status.
You may not want to live there, but people who uh like Pakistan like it a lot.
It works in a very Pakistani way for them.
And they're happy there, and there is no Pakistani refugee program.
But after seven years in Pakistan, his family game the Somali system and the chumps who who who are super hot when it comes to banning a piece of Quebec pastry, let this guy in claiming to be a teenage boy, uh they admit him to the United States.
He's a middle-aged man with a receding hairline, he's obviously not 18 years old, and he goes and stabs a bunch of Americans.
Trump the the important thing about Trump is that businessmen, you don't become successful in business unless you can prioritize.
And prioritizing means you have to choose.
So you can have a Department of Homeland Security that bans sponge cake from Canada, or you can have a dem uh Department of Homeland Security that stops people like the big stabby stabby Ohio State University stabber from stabbing Americans.
Uh and you but you can't have both.
You cannot have both.
And in a civilized world, uh Americans ought to be embarrassed uh that two perfectly law abiding people have a cake confiscated by the Department of Homeland Security, who, by the way, made up that law.
There's no law actually prohibiting them from bringing that cake into this country.
Uh but Mr. Super Alert uh for uh national security threats, the guy at the border just made it up and banned the cake.
Uh that they can do.
That they can do, but they can't keep the Ohio State University stabber from coming in and stabbing Americans.
And so it's clear that the easiest way to end the world of terror.
I was talking about how the second world war, Pearl Harbor to VJ Day, three and a half years.
We've now had fifteen years of the war on terror.
The quickest way to end it is to issue every member of ISIS and every member of Al Qaeda with a booster Noel, and not a single one of them would ever get past the US border and into this country to kill Americans.
But that's the priorities uh of the United States government.
The Department of Homeland Security was uh w was set up in the wake of nine eleven.
Last year they raided a Boston strip club and arrested the strippers for selling knockoff Red Sox T-shirts.
That the Department of Homeland Security can do.
But they can't keep the Ohio State University stabber from stabbing Americans.
Uh they can ban my flute player, but they can't keep uh the San Bernardino killers from getting admitted to the United States with a sham marriage.
That they can do.
They can ban a uh my Bouche de Noel coming in for my Christmas show for the here's one we made earlier moment, but they cannot prevent uh the Boston Sarnaya brothers from blowing up the Boston marathon even after the Russians have fingered those guys to the CIA.
Uh you have to be able to prioritize and these guys can't.
Mark Stein for Rush, more straight ahead.
Thank you, Mark Sted for Rush on America's uh num number one radio uh radio show.
I got a little I got a little carried away uh having having had my Christmas cake denied entry uh to the United States, Darla Bard's uh treats that she is actually attempting a booster Noel on Christmas Eve.
Is that evil even legal in America, Dala?
You know, you don't you don't you don't want the uh you don't want uh homeland security kicking uh kicking your door down on Christmas Eve.
You're thinking the uh when you hear the heavy thud of boots, oh look, Sanders coming early, and boom, the door's kicked in and they get your booster Noel, and you're looking at a one-way uh ticket to Gitmo.
By the way, I gotta go up, I gotta go up to Quebec tomorrow.
I'm gonna stop in at this North Troy border post and go in and yell at the supervisor, because uh I always like f danger is my middle name.
I always like flirting with danger.
And um Yeah, I might smear some smear some I might track in some some uh some patissery cream across the floor.
Um uh but the uh but but but uh I gotta go up there now because like my pastry pals don't want to come near the United States again in case they wind up in Gitbo.
But so I'm gonna go up there and in uh and uh in honor, I'm hoping to get the left on board with this plan to decriminalize Bush and Noel uh because we're gonna make in honor of the man who founded Department of Homeland Security, we're going to make a George W. Buster Noel.
Yeah uh key Keith uh emails re my immigration issues with bringing in this flute player, and he goes, Have you thought about reaching out to Bill Clinton with regard to the immigration issue with the flute player?
From what I understand, Bill likes to spend time with flute players.
Uh if you are missing Rush, and he will be back tomorrow, uh, and you're also thinking Christmas, what can we do uh for Christmas for the for the Rush fan in our family, or maybe, or maybe for someone who's not a Rush fan, but might be persuadable in this strange new fluidity that exists uh since November the 8th.
Some people might be open to ideas that they weren't open to before November the 8th.
Well, uh there's no better gift for the Rush fan in your family than uh a subscription to the Limbaugh Letter.
It's every month, it's a great Christmas gift, uh, and it has a mix of uh terrific articles and commentary from Rush, plus fabulous interviews uh that Rush does with uh leading conservatives and even not so leading type people such as yours truly,

Uh subscribe today at Rushlimbore.com, take out a gift subscription, and you will also get a free Rush 2016 EIB Christmas ornament.
My favorite story in the news today comes from uh uh comes from Ghana, the Gold Coast, as we old school West African imperialists used to say.
An organized crime ring operated a sham US embassy in Ghana that issued illegally obtained visas uh for hundreds possibly thousands of people, the State Department has confirmed.
Uh the building in Accra, which is the capital of Ghana, flew a US flag every Monday, Tuesday, and Friday morning.
So they were like a functioning three-day-a-week embassy.
And uh and and in the course of this embassy, uh running this embassy, they sold fake visa.
I should actually go here.
I should have gone to this sham embassy to get the visa I want for my flute player, because he would be he'd be sitting next to me playing Danny Boy on the flute behind me right now if I'd gone to this fake US embassy.
I don't know about fake news, but fake fake embassies, we could use some more of those.
Anyway, these guys in Accra Ghana, they ran a fake US embassy.
There is apparently uh no US Embassy in Accra Garda.
They've uh the look of the building, if you go to the news story, it looks like just some decrepit run-down piece of slub housing, but they put a U.S. flag outside it and made a fortune uh issuing uh issuing illegally obtained visas for about a decade.
So all over America, there are people who are living here uh with visas issued by a pretend U.S. embassy in Accra Ghana.
They got all the details right.
Inside the building was a picture of President Obama, just like a real US embassy, uh, and they got blank documents to Doctor and Forge.
And they were staffed by fake consular officers who were in fact Turks who spoke English and Dutch.
They advertised the cost of their US visas, six thousand dollars on flyers and billboards, with options to buy supporting documents such as birth certificates and bank records.
And the fake embassy remained open for almost a decade, according to the State Department.
And it was run, as I said, staffed mainly by Turks.
The State Department now has a statement on its website saying, uh, please don't get your US visa from the fake US Embassy in Accra, Ghana because it's a fake embassy, and they just charge you six thousand dollars for a fake visa.
And uh the operation was broken up by a team of law enforcement agencies that included the U.S. Diplomatic Security Service, Canadian Embassy officials, and local police.
There's no such by the way, this is like your mainstream media for you.
There's no such thing as a Canadian embassy in Ghana.
They have a high commission, because Ghana is a British Commonwealth country like Canada, and uh Commonwealth countries are not foreign to each other, so they do not have embassies, which are for foreign relations.
Instead, they have high commissions, which are uh for uh uh those countries that are in the beloved uh Commonwealth family.
So these would have been Canadian High Commission officials.
How embarrassing is this?
Like for ten years this fake embassy is issuing US visas to all these people to come to America, and uh they're all here now.
Maybe they're not all stabbing people like the Ohio State University stabby stabby stabber guy is, um, but they're uh they're not meant to be in this country, and instead, these guys, God bless them, you've got to admire the innovation.
When they talk about immigrants, these are the kind of hard working immigrants we need.
These Ghanaians hired some Turks to pretend to be U.S. consular officials, they they get some decrepit abandoned building, they stick a uh Stars and Stripes outside and a portrait of President Obama inside, and they spend ten years issuing fake visas uh to people to come to the United States,
and it takes officials of the Canadian High Commission in Accra who were probably just who probably just invited them along to uh the uh the big Canada Day ball, or maybe they were invited, maybe you don't know how audacious these Turks at Gardeads were.
Maybe they decided to throw a big Fourth of July party and the Canadian High Commission guys uh in the garden for the Big Fourth of July party, maybe thought, hey, hey, wait a minute, this doesn't seem like an authentic all-American Fourth of July event.
There's no hot dogs, they're serving Bush to Noel.
What the hell's going on in this joint?
But at any rate, the Canadian High Commission officials fingered this fake sham US Embassy that was operating for ten years uh at bargain rates and letting all these people who shouldn't be in the country into the country.
And I know people will get annoyed about that and and upset about it.
But the way to look at it is this way.
They were letting people into the country for far less money than the official US immigration bureaucracy, which is far more expensive.
They're letting in all these millions of Mexicans and Latin Americans, and they're charging a fortune because they're like government workers, you can't fire them, uh, you have to pay them uh uh a huge amount of money, they demand proper offices, they've got to be OSHA compliant.
Whereas this sham embassy run out of an abandoned building in Accra, Ghana, where they just hired some minimum wage Turks uh to fleece all the people wanting to come into the United States, is at least letting in all the illegal immigrants for a lot less money uh than the official uh US bureaucracy is letting them in for.
But at any rate, uh they have now been closed down after a sting by uh officials from the US diplomatic security service and the Canadian High Commission.
So be careful about this.
If you run into trouble in a foreign country, and you think you're going to the US Embassy, it could just be some operation that's just some freelance operation that's being run by some Turkish gangsters.
In fact, I might actually check that border crossing I mentioned at North Troy, Vermont.
I don't even know if that's an official border crossing.
I mean it looks expensive enough, but that might actually just be some fake operation uh run by Turkish gangsters with a uh a taste for Canadian uh petissary and they're just confiscating cakes.
We don't know.
We don't know.
This has opened up a whole world of possibilities.
Uh that's in the that's in the news today.
One of the things that I like about the incoming administration, as I said, Trump, I mentioned this uh uh last hour.
Trump uh complained about the cost of the new Air Force One.
Uh the Boeing is uh just uh uh rolling in the gravy uh and uh it's costing more than four billion dollars for Air Force One cancel order.
This is again the advantage of having a businessman president.
He knows what planes cost because he's got a plane.
And one of the great things, I I said this uh a couple of years ago, just as the whole presidential uh season was uh starting up.
I would support a candidate who pledged to totally mothball Air Force One.
Because when you guys are flying home for Christmas, you go through hell at the airport.
You stand there shuffling uh for hours uh through the sloth and decrepitude at O'Hare or LAX or LaGuardia, because uh they have determined that you need to take your shoes off, uh you need to take your coat off.
When you're flying home for Thanksgiving, you the consistency of your pumpkin pie cannot be too liquid, because it could in that case be weaponized and the pumpkin pie could be used to blow up the airplane.
So we have this vast bureaucracy to make every single flight safe.
That's the purpose of it, to ensure that no troublemaker that's why you go through it all.
Uh go through this hell every time you fly home for Thanksgiving or Christmas.
So in that case, if every flight is safe, if if it's impossible to penetrate the secure zone, why do we need an Air Force One?
Why cannot the President of the United States fly commercial like almost every other world leader does?
I would salute Donald Trump if his first act he he's done a great thing, by the way, by re declining his salad salary by being the first president since George Washington to say he won't take a salary.
A great thing to do.
He should also say we're gonna mothball Air Force One, and I don't want a 40-car motorcade.
Because with a 40-car motorcade, you got no idea who's in it.
You want a small motorcade uh staffed by people who seriously are willing to take a bullet for you as as a as opposed to one that's staffed by a bazillion guys from the Secret Service and their Cartagena hookers and who knows who else is in those uh in in those 40 cars.
Nobody needs a 40-car motorcade, nobody needs a four billion dollar plane uh to fly from a fundraiser in Martha's Vineyard to a fundraiser in Malibu in.
They should mothball that plane, and it would be a great signal from Trump uh that as a wealthy man and as a businessman, he understands priorities and he understands the importance of re-establishing the principle that America's head of state is not an emperor like Japan, like Hirohito 75 years ago.
He's not a god, he's not an emperor, he's a citizen executive.
Mark Stein for Rush will take your call straight ahead.
Mark Stein in Farush, let's go to Debbie in Boise, Idaho.
Debbie, you're live on the Rush Limbaugh Show.
Great to have you with us.
Hi, Mark.
I'm honored.
No, I'm I'm uh I am Debbie.
It's wonderful.
Oh right.
And and I noticed on my street, and I live on a street of young families.
Right.
There's only two flags out today.
And I guess I'm just wondering, are these kids not patriotic like we're I I think it's uh I I think it's well I think it I think you're right in that they're not patriotic like you literally in that I think uh large numbers of them uh if you ask them uh well uh what do you think of Pearl Harbor, and they'd tell you, Oh, well, we shouldn't have uh interned uh Japanese Americans during the war, so who are we to judge?
They would say that to you.
But I also think that a large numbers of them are just historically ignorant, and they have actually no idea.
If you stop them and you said it's December the fourteenth, it's a day that will live in infamy, so what is it?
They would have absolutely no idea that today was the seventy-fifth anniversary uh of the worst attack uh on the US military by a foreign power uh to that date, and they would just have simply they would simply be ignorant of it, Debbie.
We have raised uh as you see, whenever you listen to these uh generation snowflake talking about anything, they are actually entirely cut off from their history and their inheritance, and that's a that's the kind of I mean you must know that when you took when you talk to them and you mention anything uh that happened uh since uh before uh you know uh their favorite TV show went uh on the air.
They have no idea of anything that happened uh in the entirety of US history, Debbie.
And it's sad, isn't it?
It's pathetic.
Um and i and and and and at the top of the show I mentioned uh these two privates who were the ones who were actually there when they when they saw the Japanese coming straight at them with this new fangled radar they had, and I mentioned their ages.
Uh one was nineteen years old.
He was in charge of that unit, and the other guy was twenty-three years old.
And I now listen to these these guys who are five, ten years older than those two guys, uh, and they're all bleating about safe spaces and they're being triggered because somebody has used the wrong pronoun uh over a transgendered person,
uh, and they're saying that you can't have the US flag at to your college campus because it traumatizes people, and they didn't realize we weren't in a one party state, so they had no idea that the other guy's party gets to win once in a while, so they're all curled up in the fetal position on the day after the election.
And I compare them with this nineteen-year-old and this twenty-three year old looking at that radar screen seventy-five years ago today.
We are re they were men.
They were men.
And we are now raising middle aged children, quivering lumps who can't handle listening to a song like baby it's cold outside, uh, who can't handle uh the other guy winning an election, who can't handle a difference of opinion, not just about transgendered bathrooms, but about whether you should be able to read Huckleberry Finn, or whether that should be banned because it distresses uh people.
We are we we are raising middle aged children.
And one day, one day, uh when these people take control of Western nations, they will have to face the same stark choices uh that Joe and George faced uh in the Pacific 75 years ago today,
when they see incoming over the horizon, and George and Joe were twenty-three years old and nineteen years old respectively, but they were men, and we now live in perpetual adolescence, and may God preserve us from the consequences of doing that uh to two generations of Americans.
Thank you very much for your call, Debbie, and I'm glad to hear that you understand at least the significance of December the seventh, nineteen forty-one.
Mark Stein for Rush, more straight ahead.
Donald Trump is Time Magazine's quote, person of the year.
I I don't know.
I really think they should bring back man of the year for for Trump now that uh now that Trump's uh won it.
They what is it?
I think it's the second comment yes it is.
Second comment into this story says, oh well.
Adolf Hitler was also Times man of the year in nineteen thirty-eight.
So this is confirmation.
They've been looking for confirmation that Trump actually is Hitler.
And now we have it.
Because both of them, they're the only two people in history to be Time magazine's man of the year.
Adolf in 1938 and Trump just today has been announced as Time Magazine's person of the year.
