	Yes, America's Anchorman is away, and this is your undocumented anchor man, honored to be here from uh the uh new uh ice station EIB support station.
	Uh but if you are fleeing the country, then do swing by and say hello, you can't miss us.
	We've got a big sign on the border uh up on the highway saying last Rush guest host before the border.
	We always we always love to see you.
	Uh Rush will be back on Monday.
	Oh, I always say uh ever since I've been guest hosting uh this show, and people say, well, what kind of job is it where you just work like five days a year, you come down from the hills every couple of months uh and uh and and do three hours uh little light radio work uh guest hosting uh you yours you conservatives are all supposed to be the about the work ethic.
	What kind of job is it that involves us working five days a year and sitting around claiming welfare the rest of it?
	Well, I've always said there's absolutely no point competing with Rush on radio because he is the best, he is the master.
	Uh he has been doing it for decades and he is uh unsurpassable at what he does, and you'd have to be a chump uh to to try and compete with him in that.
	But uh I thought television might be a little easier, and so I've actually uh started a new television show, which we uh we've called uh the Mark Stein show.
	That was a bit of a shock to me because I suddenly realize oh, it's not guest hosting anymore.
	And apparently uh are we doing we're doing a show this Friday, I think that's right, is that right?
	Uh because I thought we'd have a guest host in for the first show.
	But apparently my TV show is going to be uh on air this Friday.
	So and I also I'll be here on the radio this Friday too, because Buck Sexton and I, there's so many guest hosts around at the moment that you've got the guest host, guest hosting for the guest hosts.
	Buck Sexton and I swapped a couple of days, so we had guest hosts covering for other guest hosts.
	And as a result, I'll be here uh I'll be doing a radio show on Friday, and then I'll be guest hosting for Buck, guest hosting for Rush, and then I'll be doing a television show a little later on Friday.
	That's like the hardest I've worked uh since I was uh fifteen years old and working on the farm one summer.
	So that is gonna be brutal for me, and we'll see how it goes.
	I mentioned just before the top of the hour that Putin undoubtedly hacked into the sound system and humiliated Mariah Carey before the world in Times Square on New Year's Eve.
	I mean, I really felt for her, you know, because she was supposed to be um uh what was she supposed to be lip syncing to?
	What was the name of the song?
	I can't remember what uh what what it wasn't all I want for Christmas is you, it was uh one of the other ones.
	Uh but whatever it was, uh she she started lip syncing to the wrong song because Putin had beamed uh it was beaming uh electrons into her brain, uh making her mess up the lip syncing.
	And it is and it's terrible.
	And people say, Oh, that's ridiculous.
	You're just being ridiculous now.
	You're not taking this seriously.
	That's just fake news to suggest that Putin hacked into Mariah Carey's cleavage and wrecked her lip syncing.
	That's completely there's no evidence for that.
	Well, this story appeared in the Washington Post on Friday.
	Uh on Friday, the Washington Post, uh this is a story in Forbes by Kalev Litaru.
	On Friday, the Washington Post sparked a wave of fear when it ran the breathless headline Russian hackers penetrated US electricity grid through a utility in Vermont, US officials say.
	And as you know, if you know Ice Station EIB, uh, which is right on the Vermont New Hampshire border, and the piece of wet string uh that we depend on to connect Ice Station EIB to uh Mike uh down in New York, whence it goes uh over to California and from there up to the satellite, all depends on this piece of wet string uh connecting Ice Station EIB with a public utility in Vermont.
	So I was I was shocked by this, the idea that Russian hackers had penetrated the US electricity grid through utility in Vermont.
	Because as you know, in this part of the world, if if a tree rustles and touches the line, the power goes out in six counties.
	And the idea that that was all Putin's fault, suddenly it all makes sense.
	You know, you always hear these things like Superstorm Sandy, which hits a beach uh down in New Jersey, and like the power is off in southern New Hampshire for a week.
	And and when you say, Oh, well, that's ridiculous, how could Superstorm Sandy possibly affect uh the power outages in southern New Hampshire?
	Well, it wasn't it wasn't anything to do with uh the weather.
	It turned out to be Putin.
	It the Washington Post told me.
	Russian hackers, here's the headline.
	Russian hackers penetrated US electricity grid through a utility in Vermont.
	U.S. officials say.
	While the Russians did not actively use the code to disrupt operations of the utility, according to officials who spoke on condition of anonymity in order to discuss a security matter, the penetration of the nation's electrical grid is significant because it represents a potentially serious vulnerability.
	Now this was Burlington Electric.
	So this is Bernie Sanders Electric Company.
	So according to the Washington Post, Bernie Sanders Electric Company is working for the Russians.
	It all makes sense to the Washington Post.
	Burlington Electric Company.
	And so I'm watching the local news, and I get channel because of the way the wind blows, the only TV network I get is basically Channel 3 News from Burlington, Vermont.
	And there's not a lot of stories on the news.
	It's a quiet state, so the stories are all about Ben and Jerry or Bernie and Howard.
	That's it.
	Ben Jerry, Bernie Howard.
	That's it.
	That's all there is to talk about.
	And suddenly the local news guys doing all these labored PUS like Burlington Electric is normally, when it comes to fighting storms, it normally means snow and rain and ice and that kind of thing.
	But now the storm they're fighting is a fire storm caused by the Washington Post saying they've been hacked by Putin and their Putin is controlling the entire uh American electrical grid uh through hacking into Burlington Electric Company.
	It's not true.
	They found some kind of malware on one laptop at this Burlington Electric Company.
	The electric company says it wasn't even the laptop isn't even connected to the grid.
	It's just a guy getting uh some email uh saying, you know, see Foxy Ukrainian women uh click here, or you know, yes, I am honorable uh Prince Sir Abu Jabi bin Abjabi, uh former oil minister of Nigeria, and I have thirty-eight million dollars that I urgently need to transfer into your bank account.
	Please provide details.
	And uh the guy instead of just deleting it, clicked on it and he got this little in amongst all the other rubbish that's in everybody's laptops all the time, just from clicking here, clicking there, clicking there, and suddenly you've got all these uh little bits of the little all little bits of uh malware and spyware and all the rest of it all floating around.
	Everybody's got it in all their in all their computers.
	The Washington Post story was nonsense from beginning to end.
	Putin does not control the Burlington electric company.
	Yes, when I said he'd hacked into Mariah Carey's cleavage and wrecked her lip syncing, you can take that to the bank, because there's more evidence for that than the evidence that Putin hacked into the electric grid.
	And if the Washington Post, uh, which eventually had to sort of dial back its story, they were basically set up, and again, you wonder how often does this have to happen to mainstream journalists.
	They're played for saps and patsies and rubes by the guys you support.
	So this these these these fellows at the Washington Post, they've got some contacts uh in the so-called national security apparatus, which in America is like uh uh four million people.
	So it's the population of New Zealand uh that can actually claim to be spooks here.
	So so two of these four million people say, oh yeah, you know, uh Bernie Sanders electric company, you know, Bernie just bought a vacation house in the Lake Champlain Islands.
	Why do you think that was?
	It's because Putin's hacked in uh through his electric pole and is now controlling the US electric grid uh via hacking Into uh the Burlington Electric Company.
	It never happened.
	Uh in amongst all the hundreds of pieces of malware and spyware in the Burlington area, one employee of the Burlington Electric Company had a piece of uh this particular spyware, and it wasn't connected anywhere near to the grid.
	Just for the record, like everywhere in New England, the uh electric uh power is controlled not by the commies, not by the Ruskies.
	It's controlled by the Quebecwa.
	It all comes from Hydro Quebec up by James Bay, and if something goes funny in your electricity in Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Massachusetts, it's because some Frenchie up in James Bay uh threw half his unfinished poutine into the water and it's blocked all the hydroelectric power.
	And that's the that's got more truth in it, that statement, than anything you're gonna read in the Washington Post about Putin hacking into the Burlington Electric Company.
	We are living under an epidemic of fake news in which the faky fakiest fake news story of all is the idea that Putin is in the uh US electric grid via Bernie's electric company.
	Uh and and the question is how how much one one of the interesting features of this election was that Trump demonstrated he doesn't go to the people via his tweets.
	What he's doing is actually uh because most of the people on Twitter twittering back and forth all day, and most of the people following Twitter are actually media people.
	If you notice every lame show has a now we go to our social media feature, uh, where we uh we we look at what's trending on Tweet on Twitter.
	We're going to hash it out.
	We're gonna hashtag it out on Twitter.
	We're gonna have corn here's our corn beef and hashtag segment in which we keep you up to speed on what's happening on Twitter.
	And they're the only guys following Twitter, and uh uh effectively what Trump does by going to Twitter and tweeting is he's hacking into the American media's head uh and sending them off running around in circles, obsessing about some tweet of his uh of his someday.
	Um just uh that's that's the main reason he does it.
	And then they all go bananas over some tweet of his, and meanwhile, what else is out there just uh doesn't get ri doesn't get reported.
	But he uh the the American media damaged themselves and in faking up this story now for which there is no evidence uh other than a politicised uh uh politicized leakers in the administration attempting to plant bogus stories suggesting that a Vermont electric company.
	I saw that.
	That was one of the late period Roger Moore Bond films when frankly the plots no longer made sense.
	You know, you remember what was w w what was that uh w what was that the uh the spy was it the spy who loved me or octopusy where Bond has to parachute in uh to Bernie Sanders uh uh Bond villain Lair in the Lake Champlain Islands uh and he has to crawl into the basement uh and uh and get into where the uh power lines come into the house to prevent the Russians taking over the entire U.S. electric grid.
	Fakey fake news and the Washington Post got played for saps.
	Mark Stein for Rush will take your call straight ahead.
	Mark Stein in for Rush behind the golden EIB microphone today.
	Let us go to Jack in Tucson, Arizona.
	Jack, you're live on the Rush Limbo Show.
	Great to have you.
	Good day, Mr. Stein.
	You have a great sense of humor, sir.
	Well, you need it in these uh difficult times, uh I have a story that you might find kind of humorous.
	We have a very prestigious bicycle race in Tucson, Arizona.
	It's called El Tour de Toussaint.
	It circles the city, it's a hundred and six miles.
	We have ten thousand entries from all over the world.
	Right.
	Now the guy that won, he was from South America, he won in four hours and thirty some minutes, and then there were two women fighting it out for the ladies' crown, and one won it by less than three seconds.
	Two days after the race, when everybody's gone, it's all over, it comes out that the lady that won was actually a man that is a transgender, I think the word is they're using these days.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	There were some grumblings about it.
	And this and that, and it went on for a while.
	But then it kind of calmed down like, you know, maybe society are just accepting it.
	The next Sunday, there was an article in the paper that said transgender cyclists win fairer than it seems, and it told his story from twenty twelve to twenty fifteen when he really applied himself to be a great cyclist.
	Well if you take out the stuff in the middle about the training, all of a sudden he had a revolution in his life that he was gender was wrong, and so he switched over to being a woman.
	Not uh physically, but mentally.
	And it kind of broke down to he trained for three or four years, but he couldn't cut it.
	He couldn't be a winner as a man.
	And then he so he started to race as a woman.
	And I gotta tell you, bottom line is I think they ruined a wonderful, wonderful race they've had here for many, many years.
	What's your line on that, sir?
	Well, i it's becoming uh uh i there's an incentive as as uh this uh person and Jack, you know you've just uh opened up a whole pit of hell for yourself by mispronouncing uh uh this uh this uh first place ladies finisher in Tucson because I did.
	Uh you just you you w just read he he he I'm kind of nervous all all the all the way through.
	And and uh and the and the reason But you're you're absolute you're absolutely right here is the is that there is uh incentivizing people because what the the reason for separate men's and women's trophies in sport is because men and women have physiological differences.
	Yep.
	And and then the minute you say to people, well, uh it's not about the physiological differences, it's whether you identify as a man or identify as a woman, so you can have a someone with the physiological strength of a man who decides they're fed up uh competing in uh grand slam tennis tournaments and never getting anywhere, and so they're gonna uh they're gonna instead play in the women's uh tournament and they're gonna become the ladies' champion.
	Uh in the it's it's becoming more and more common at the Rio Olympics, uh I think at least two of the United Kingdom's athletes were transgender persons who identified as female and so competed in in the female things.
	I don't even know.
	If you're coming from one of these countries like India has the worst Olympic record uh of anywhere on the planet because uh in Indians p per capita have the lowest number of medals in the Olympic games.
	So if you were a uh uh uh um uh someone from India, why couldn't you identify as an American and then just put yourself in with a much better chance of winning a medal?
	I mean, that once you once people be self-define, the whole p point of things like the Tour de Tucson and uh the Olympics, uh they become completely pointless because they're about competitions between people who are starting from the same point.
	And if you have a competitor with the physiological strength of a man uh competing against women, uh that competitor is a huge advantage, as happened in some uh little girl school competition uh some high school up in Alaska as well.
	I can't remember what the sport was now, but again it was won by the uh transgender gal.
	And what's interesting to me, Jack, just as a final point on on this business, is that when we talk about transgender, it's almost always female to male.
	Uh and there I believe it's something like six female to male transitions for every m uh six male to female translations transitions for every single uh female to male transitions.
	In other words, there's six Caitlin Jenners for every Chaz Bono.
	And and so it's part of a great net transfer.
	It goes back to what we were talking earlier about the the men's project at the University of Wisconsin.
	It's a part of the great net transfer uh from men to women that is going on remorselessly.
	And there is a logic to it, and there will be a lot of other people, particularly if uh uh because a lot of this brainwashing starts in kindergarten and first grade.
	There will be an awful lot of people who are incentivized, essentially, uh to embark on that process in the brave new world we're living in.
	Hey, great to be with you.
	Rush returns live, live on uh I think it's May twenty-third, June, June the sixteenth, something like that.
	The we are in the season of guest hosts here.
	Uh but one way to mitigate the horror, the horror of uh frankly incompetent cheap labor foreign guest hosts clogging up the airwaves is to go to Rush Limbaugh.com and become a subscriber to the Limbaugh Letter,
	which is a terrific read, comes out every month, and uh Rush interviews uh top thinkers who will uh make you uh get back to first principles, uh strategies and uh and cover all the big picture stuff.
	Uh so you get not only Rush's thoughts, but you also get uh some of the guys he thinks are worth listening to out there.
	And to subscribe to the Limbaugh Letter, it's a great way to start the year.
	Great way to start the year.
	Just go to Rush Limbaugh.com and you'll see the little limb letter button up there on the home page.
	And next time next time you start to hear some kind of whiny foreign voice, and you think, oh God, this is pathetic.
	Uh what is it?
	Putin's hacked in there and he's got some unconvincing fake voice modulator in there.
	You don't have to worry about it.
	You can just uh put your feet up, read the limbaugh letter, and the pain of the guest host will go away.
	Uh rush limbore.com, click on the button for the Limbaugh letter.
	I wanna I want to say something uh about a a woman I have a tremendous respect for.
	She's a lady called uh Judith Curry, who's a climate scientist at Georgia Tech.
	And she today retired from Georgia Tech, and the reason she gave was the quote craziness in the field of climate science, unquote.
	Uh she just she said that I can I no longer know what to say to students about how to navigate the quote craziness in the field she's worked in all her life.
	She is a very eminent and distinguished climate scientist, and she is not a so-called global warming denier uh or anything like that.
	She was someone who uh more or less took the side of the consensus until the Climate Gate emails came out a few years ago between uh Shysters at the University of East Anglia uh over the Atlantic and from fellows like uh Michael Mann at the uh uh Penn State University over at this.
	I should say full declaration, Michael Mann, who's the hockey stick huckster, he's the one who came up with this uh very damaging cartoon climatological graph, the hockey stick, that is the single most damaging scientific graph of the twenty-first century.
	And full disclosure, uh the guy has been suing me uh for saying his graph is a fraud uh for four years now.
	I think we get to the we begin the fifth year in uh in a couple of months' time.
	And uh and uh Judith Curry uh was someone who broadly subscribed to the climate change consensus until she saw the emails and what they revealed about the collusion and ethical malodorousness of the most prominent uh self-promoters in the climate field.
	And so she just opened herself up to a wider range of reading.
	Uh she felt that these people were unethical, uh, that whatever you whether or not what they did was criminal, whether or not what they did merited the cutting off of their grant money, it's not something decent people should do.
	It's improper.
	That's all.
	She's not a she's not a crazy person.
	She does she's not a big denier, she's not anything like that.
	She just realized that the so-called consensus was enforced by thuggery uh and uh uh and faking of uh the peer review process and all kinds of other things.
	So she started reading more widely, and she has come to conclude as the models, the climate models about global warming have been proven to be wrong, wrong, wrong, she has come to conclude that there are far more uncertainties out there uh than she thought.
	And as a result of that, uh she has been demonized, actually, sometimes in the crudest and most sexist terms.
	Michael Mann, this hockey stick huckster who's uh suing me, man, for example, uh linked to a piece by some lunatic, uh some uh anonymous uh uh lunatic uh claiming that uh this climate scientist, Dr. Curry, and I were actually sleeping together.
	And uh and Michael Mann, uh this uh hockey stick huckster uh linked to that favorably uh from his uh Twitter account or Facebook account or whatever it was.
	Uh so she's she's uh born up under tremendous strain.
	I had the privilege of testifying with her at uh the United States Senate, uh and I don't think I'd make the mistake of going there ever again, uh just over a year ago, uh, in which again she was insult she's a dis she's one of the most distinguished people in her field, one of the most distinguished people in her field.
	And this uh Democrat Senator, Ed Ed Markey from Massachusetts, uh grossly insulted her during this hearing.
	She's the she's she was the chair of the School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the Georgia Institute of Technology.
	Uh she was uh the co-author of Thermodynamics of Atmosphere and uh Oceans, co-editor of Encyclopedia of Atmospheric Sciences, uh member of the National Research Council's Climate Research Committee, super respectable.
	But because sh she dissents from the big climate orthodoxy, the climate mullers smash her down in the crudest, sexist terms, like this buffoon man uh linking to something that claims uh Judith Curry and I are uh are sleeping together.
	Uh and uh so we happen to be we weren't sleeping together, but we were just testifying together at the United States Senate.
	And Senator Ed Markey insults her.
	You can find this on the internet, it's on YouTube, insults her.
	This again, th this preening blowhard of a senator, a man who knows nothing about climate science unless he's reading the lines fed to him by a hundred and forty staffers sitting behind him.
	Uh he puts her down and she wants to respond.
	This is at one of the one hundred most so-called most powerful men, one hundred men who are selected out of three hundred million people uh to be senators, and you go and testify at the United States Senate, you're invited to testify, and you go at your own expense.
	It costs you several thousand dollars in airfare and hotel rooms and all the rest.
	And he uh insults her and dismisses her, and then she raises her hand uh to say she wants to respond, and he says, No, I didn't ask you for a I didn't ask you uh to respond, so you're not allowed to respond.
	Again, that doesn't happen in real parliaments.
	It only happens in this ludicrous United States Senate where the preen the rules of the uh preening blowhards is that they can urinate all over you, and if you shake it off and say, hey, I'd like to try and return a shot, they say, No, I'm sorry, uh, unless I ask you a question, you're not allowed to speak.
	Uh it doesn't happen in real parliaments, does it?
	I've I've spoken in uh the Australian Parliament and the Danish Parliament and the Canadian Parliament, all there if you go and testify at a hearing, it's all give back and forth.
	And and a senator has to be uh or a legislator has to be nimble on his feet.
	He can't he doesn't have the rules stacked all in his favor.
	So she said, I'd like to ask a question, and he said, I didn't ask you, I'm not gonna let you ask a question.
	And I I resp I push back.
	I said, Well, wait a minute, you've just uh you've just smashed uh her down.
	What kind of guy?
	What kind of man?
	What kind of man to go back to the theme of the last hour.
	What kind of man insults a woman and then he's so insecure in his own manhood, like this guy Markey from Massachusetts, big senator, big senator who can't ask a question without a hundred and forty staffers feeding him the lines to read, uh then uh then he doesn't he won't even let the lady, the gentleman, the gentleman who's booted the lady in the gut won't even let the lady uh have a chance to respond.
	Uh so I kicked up and and uh and complain about this and and uh we we force him to back down and he did let Judith Curry respond.
	And she had the better of the argument there with Ed Markey who turns out to know nothing about climate science.
	She is to put up with this institutional thuggery that goes on at every level where if you dissent on the subject of climate science you are accused of everything.
	You're a cu in her case uh you're accused of being a whore and all these other misogynist terms.
	And she finally had enough and she resigned today.
	And these people who enforce the big climate orthodoxy that has been wrong now, continuously wrong since this century began and they're insecure about it because they got it wrong.
	And the graphs they drew for us in the late twentieth century never happened.
	The world's climate isn't where they told us it was going to be and instead of saying well maybe that means we need to open up the conversation a bit, they instead smash down everybody who dissents from the party line and then hacks like Ed Markey in Massachusetts and uh these other senators actually want the power of uh criminal prosecution
	to be brought to bear on climate scientists who dissent from the climate orthodoxy.
	It is one of the most repellent features of the world today that in science, in science, this preening twerp markey compared the Democrat on the panel to Galileo, to Galileo.
	He wasn't Galileo.
	The people here who are enforcing a religion and culture
	calling it science are Senator Ed Markey and the big climate mullers uh like the hockey stick guy Michael E man and uh it's very sad news that a distinguished scientist like Judith Curry cannot actually uh make a career in climate science in the United States in the second decade of the twenty first century because of the big climate thuggery uh enforced by the climate mullers.
	Mark Stein in for Rush.
	We'll take your call straight ahead.
	Mark Stein in for Rush.
	Let's go to Mike in the transphobic bastion of North Carolina.
	Mike, you're live on the Rush Limbaugh Show.
	Great to have you with us.
	Hey, Mark.
	Thanks for taking my call.
	My pleasure.
	I just wanted to tag on to what the caller from Arizona was talking about.
	You know, we've got that HB2 law in North Carolina that's raised such a thing.
	It caused us to lose a good governor.
	And I just wanted to comment that.
	that the NCAA felt so badly of us that they withdrew all the tournaments from North Carolina.
	Right and the Atlantic Coast Conference did the same and yet my understanding is they will not allow transgender athletes to play on those other sort of teams.
	I think it'd be interesting to see Sylvia Hatchell at the University of North Carolina with recruits and training so she can win another national championship.
	Yeah so you're you're s accusing them uh the the NCAA uh basically want want all the all the progressive cred of being able to express solidarity uh with the LGBTQ whatever it is now movement uh but they don't actually want to accept the logic of it in their own business which is what it is.
	So in other words they'd be somewhat hypocritical than me.
	Yeah yeah and and you're and and you're right because if if the question of what bathroom you use is qu simply a question of what you identify as then why shouldn't the the question of which athletic team?
	Why should uh be uh equally a question of what you identify as?
	Why does the uh National College Athletic Association not let uh people uh pick what teams they want to be on according to their identity.
	The the funny one of the I mentioned the Limbaugh letter the few moments ago, Mike, and one of the the best conversation Rush interviewed me for that a couple of years ago, and I was kind of moaning to him at one point that at Super Bowl Sunday,
	as an unassimilated foreigner, I know absolutely nothing about uh American sports, and I was complaining to him that I he's all he always takes off the Monday after Super Bowl Sunday, so uh I'm I'm usually sitting in and filling in here, and people are asking about it.
	And one of the points I made to Rush, and Rush agreed with this, is that uh as Rush would say, one of the most chickified areas of American life now is sports, uh precisely because men value sports so much.
	So they build their man caves with the big TV where you can watch all the American football and all the rest of it.
	But sports, as Rush says, is one of the most chickified areas of American life, because political the the whole world view of political correctness is about not noticing the obvious.
	You can't notice the obvious.
	So, for example, if you talk uh um about uh for example the transgender MMA fighter who gave her opponent concussion, and then it subsequently emerges that the MMA fighter is in fact a transgender woman,
	so that physiologically she's a man, she has the strength of a male, and so if you let her uh beat up women, she'll give this woman concussion.
	Uh that's perfectly obvious.
	And it ought to be perfectly obvious to any sports commentator.
	It ought to be perfectly obvious to any sports franchise.
	But the sports the and the American sports world is way ahead of this from uh sports in other parts of the world.
	The American, because political correctness beyond anything else, is about not noticing the obvious and not saying the obvious, as Rush well knows uh after his uh brief uh uh uh period when he was uh on television talking about the football.
	You cannot talk about the obvious.
	And so it's no wonder that they are actually they the NCAA becomes the biggest posturers and the biggest posers, and they're among the first to say, Oh, look, there's a boycott about transgendered bathrooms.
	Can we can we get in on that too?
	Can we get in on that too?
	It's ridiculous.
	And it's about, and it's a useful lesson that the left teach us.
	Uh most people had most people didn't even think about this issue.
	And then ten minutes, ten minutes after uh Judge Anthony Kennedy says that the those guys in powdered wigs uh two hundred years ago had conveniently anticipated a need for gay marriage, so it's all totally constitutional.
	Instead of saying, well, let's put our feet up and uh let's go to the Bahamas for six weeks and celebrate our gay wedding victory, they say boom, no, on to the next thing.
	And transgendered bathrooms comes on to the next thing.
	And all those all those appeasing uh Republicans and moderates who say, well, you know, gay marriage isn't the hill to die on, and uh transgendered bathrooms isn't the hill to die on, and uh, you know, there'll be another hill down the line, and that won't be the hill to die on.
	And eventually uh what happens is the left will hold all the hills, and you will no longer even have any ground to fight for.
	Mark Stein for Rush will take more your calls straight ahead.
	Mark Stein in for Rush on the Excellence in Broadcasting Network.
