A radical change in policy has taken place in Europe, although it remains largely unreported in the Drive-By media here. Denmark suddenly began imposing controls at its border, quickly followed by Sweden doing the same.

RUSH: They think it's all gonna depend on what happens on talk radio if Trump gets away with it or not, that it's gonna be me and others on talk radio who will determine whether or not Trump succeeds with this attack on Cruz.  And then they're saying, "Remember what happened last time that Trump went after Cruz? Rush Limbaugh went after Trump and Trump backed down!"  People have forgotten (and it wasn't that long ago) why it is that I sounded a warning bell to Trump on that.  It wasn't the fact that he had gone after Cruz.  It was the way he did it.  I'm not gonna sit here and tell people not to go after people.  That's crazy.  But the way Trump went after Cruz, it was very, very dangerous, because he was using left-wing, liberal language.  He was going after Cruz the way a liberal Democrat would. I was saying, "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! You don't want to do it that way." But as far as Trump hitting Cruz or vice-versa? Have at it, boys. 

RUSH: I wonder if Obama is gonna go on television and cry about the Norks -- this would be the famous Kim Jong Un -- successfully testing a hydrogen bomb.  Or does he only cry about gun control when he's talking about handguns and rifles in America?  Remember, Obama used to say that stopping nuclear proliferation was his highest priority.

RUSH: There are all kinds of stories today about Bill Clinton and his sexual predator behavior back in the nineties.  Some of these stories are literally fascinating.  Some of them are about how the Clintons don't seem to realize the potential minefield that the Bill Clinton, Monica Lewinsky and others story is, as though they're in a state of denial.  Why wouldn't they be?  They got away with it.  

RUSH: The whole thing is spin designed to mask and camouflage the actual true objective, whatever it is from day to day that Obama or the left or the Democrat Party has at the top of its agenda item list.  And you'll note that it changes rapidly.  Yesterday it was guns.  Who knows what it's gonna be tomorrow or the next day. But it's gonna be something else.  We don't have time to take a breath.  It's one crisis after another.  It's climate change, global warming, you name it, and there are always enemies that have to be tamed. 

RUSH: She said, "Uh, uh, you know, uh, you... you ... you ... you'd have to ask.  I'm not one."  It happened on PMSNBC.  It was Chris Matthews asking her what the difference in a Democrat and a socialist is and whether or not she identified as a socialist. 

RUSH: A Newsweek reporter has tweeted that Ted Cruz "has a strong ground game in Iowa," and he included a photo to illustrate the strong ground game that Ted Cruz has in Iowa.  And I want to show it.  His name is Alexander Nazaryan, a Newsweek reporter. 

RUSH: My view of this is that I do here today what I've always done, and that is arrive here and take a look at the things and people I believe in being under attack and, when necessary, defend them.  By the same token, you know, I've been open about what I think the value of Donald Trump in this campaign is from day one.  And I think Ted Cruz is coming as close to anybody as emulating what Trump is demonstrating.  Trump is demonstrating that every one of these things the Republicans have been frightened into silence over are unnecessary to be frightened of. You don't need to be frightened of the media. You don't need to be frightened of political correctness. You don't need to be frightened of being conservative.

RUSH: The left despises Big Tobacco, and there they are giving away advertising for cigarettes.  Why?  Why are they doing it?  By the same token, look at all of the gun violence in movies today.
