This is the guy who ran the control tower at Baghdad International Airport. He and his boys ended up throwing a faulty French refrigerator off the top shelf of the control tower. He says: Hey Rush,I am scratching my head here. None of this makes any sense...but I wonder what you think about all of this... The national news media shows lots of our American servicemen...

RUSH: To Atlanta. This is Jay. I'm glad you called, sir. Nice to have you with us.
CALLER: Thank you, Rush. It occurs to me that if "24" is inciting US military personnel to torture and murder --
RUSH: Which is absurd.
CALLER: Well, of course it is.

RUSH: Rudy Giuliani was on Larry King Alive last night. I don't know how many of you people watch this, but the reputation that Larry King Alive has is that it's softball after softball after softball after softball -- and it's true with the aging Hollywood star who hasn't had a hit in 30 years but still is a big favorite of Larry's as a guest, or some liberal Hollywood entertainer or what have you, or somebody from the Drive-By Media. Yes, they get softballs. But you get a guy who's a Republican,...

RUSH: One of the darkest days in the history of the House of Representatives is slated for tomorrow. This is where they're going to vote on this nonbinding resolution, and the "slow bleed" process to take the president out of Iraq.

They actually never did cut off funding for Nixon, but they did tell him where...

RUSH: Folks, I want to apologize. I was told yesterday that the intro to the first episode of "The 1/2 Hour News Hour" would be posted on YouTube sometime yesterday afternoon. It didn't get up there until this morning. It's there now, and it's the open. There are three excerpts. One's a promo for the show.

Hey Rush,
I am scratching my head here. None of this makes any sense? but I wonder what you think about all of this?
The national news media shows lots of our American servicemen and women dying over there in Iraq and getting killed, helicopters being shot-down, roadside bombs going off?etc?etc. Yet, when you are there, when you work with Americans and Iraqis who are actively engaged in re-building the country, who are out going after the enemy? there?s this ever-present sense of optimism,...
