RUSH: Welcome to the program, Sylvester Stallone, Rocky Balboa. The movie comes out on the 20th, correct?
STALLONE: Right, the 20th, Rush.
RUSH: Thanks for joining us today. They sent me a copy of it, Sly, and I want to be honest with you, I didn't know what was left to tell in the story. I've loved all these other Rocky movies but there's been a long hiatus now, and I put it in, and I was stunned.
STALLONE: Thank you.
RUSH: You cover every demographic in this, I mean, looking...

RUSH: Some of the North Carolina media erred yesterday in reporting that the accuser -- see, I keep wanting to use the word I first used to describe this woman, but I'm not going to. I was right, but I'm not going to go there again. The North Carolina media said she gave birth. She's pregnant, but she hasn't given birth. The DA, good old Mike Nifong said no, no, no, she -- she's going to give birth in February. She got pregnant two weeks after the alleged rapes.
Now, to me the media got...

RUSH: Now to the phones. This is Terrence in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Hello, sir.
CALLER: Rush.
RUSH: Yeah?
CALLER: I'm depressed. I have a problem.
RUSH: Yeah?
CALLER: I live in Cambridge. They do not like Christmas, and I'm surrounded by liberals. Their depression is really starting to affect my outlook on Christmas. I don't feel like I can get into it this year, it's so depressing. I get "Happy Holidays," if that, wherever I go. I don't know how to respond to this. ...

RUSH: It's comical today, folks, to listen to the Drive-By Media worry and speculate about not the fate of Tim Johnson. Now they're worried about the 82-year-old Daniel Akaka and Daniel In No Way, the two senators from Hawaii, both Democrats. Now we're worried about the health of Sheets Byrd, 89 years old in West Virginia. They're worried about this. This one-seat majority is very tenuous. They're also worried that one of these Democrats might be cajoled into switching parties. As you know,...

RUSH: Don in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, hello.
CALLER: Rush, I have a Friday-type question. When I've listened to this show on the Dittocam, it doesn't sound nearly as good as when I listen over the air and I was curious if you can tell us what sort of digital processing or what you do to the signal to make it sound so good?
RUSH: You're telling me that the streaming audio that you hear on the Internet while watching this program on the Dittocam doesn't sound as good as it does as...

RUSH: A little story here, just hot off the printer. It just came, was not on the original Stack of Stuff. It's from the Chicago Sun-Times. "Senator Barack Obama is concerned about his personal security, telling the Chicago Sun-Times editorial board yesterday that he and his wife fear there is a potential for violence even if he does not run for president. 'Being shot, obviously that is the least attractive option said Barack Obama.' The Illinois Democrat told the Sun-Times he has concluded a...

RUSH: Well, as you know -- we were talking about it during program yesterday -- we had record rainfall yesterday, right here. Down in Miami they got less than half an inch, which is just 67 miles down the road. We had over eight and a half inches here yesterday, and the whole crew, all four of us, we did not get outta here 'til 11 o'clock last night, because the parking garage is below street level, and it had three feet of water in it. There was a car in there, it was a Mercedes, and we were...

RUSH: Eleanor Clift (this would be Newsweek but it's the MSNBC website) has a column called, "Dem[ocrat]s and the Johnson Crisis -- Tim Johnson's health crisis is a reminder of the fragility of the Democratic majority. What the party should do now," and let me just read you some excerpts of this. "Just as Wellstone?s untimely death cost the Democrats a key Senate seat, Johnson?s illness should inject a sense of urgency into the Democrats? agenda. No one would have put the robust-looking Johnson...

RUSH: The Brits have an idea to help stamp out obesity. (story) "Oversize clothes should have obesity helpline numbers sewn on them to try and reduce Britain's fat crisis, a leading professor said today. And new urban roads should only be built if they have cycle lanes, according to Naveed Sattar, Professor of Metabolic Medicine at the University of Glasgow. He is calling for more government intervention with a central agency set up to deal with the problems of obesity. Britain's fat problem is...

RUSH: It's been suggested to me, by the way, that the young man who called about the Ninth Amendment and the courts and the judges making rights and so forth might have been a Libertarian, as opposed to a liberal, because Libertarians do focus a lot on the Ninth Amendment as the freedom to go out and do anything just because they think it's a blank check, and so that's entirely possible. Now, by the way, the rights enumerated in our founding documents, the Declaration of Independence, without me...

RUSH: Jerry in Milwaukee, I'm glad you waited, sir. Welcome to the EIB Network.
CALLER: Hi. Thanks for taking my call, Rush.
RUSH: Yes.
CALLER: I hear you and other conservatives, unfortunately, say that -- make statements about judicial activism and judges making rights. Well, the Framers, our Framers of our Constitution created the Ninth Amendment that means rights not enumerated, not listed in the Bill of Rights in the previous constitutional amendment exists. Those are rights...

CALLER: Mega dittos from a former Marine naval aviator.
RUSH: Well, we're honored to have you here. What did you fly?
CALLER: Well, as a matter of fact, I had to train a lot of the Marine pilots that made the last flights into Saigon and brought our Marines and embassy personnel out. That was that HMM-164, one of my old squadrons.
RUSH: Wow.
