RUSH: Boy, they are out for Mitt Romney! I saw this over the weekend: "While Mitt Romney condemns polygamy and its prior practice by his Mormon church, the Republican presidential candidate's great-grandfather had five wives and at least one of his great-great grandfathers had 12. Polygamy was not just a historical footnote, but a prominent element in the family tree of Mitt Romney." This is an AP story by Jennifer Dobner and Glen Johnson. "Romney's great-grandmother, Hannah Hood Hill, was the...

"If we do pull out of Iraq, there might be a civil war in the whole country. Actually, I wouldn't even call it a 'civil war.' I would just call it, 'Al-Qaeda-will-run-in-there-and-do-their-best-to-take-over-the-whole-place-and-probably-have-some-sort-of-power-sharing-deal-with-Iran.'"
"As you people know, I normally do not watch the Epidemic Awards....

I've gotta ask my question. I'm going to illustrate my ignorance on this, but I don't care. This is how you learn. Did you hear about this jaguar that mauled a zookeeper in Denver? The jaguar was named Jorge. They got the jaguar from a Bolivian zoo, six years old, a cute little thing. I saw a picture of it, and they had just imported a 16-month-old female to mate with Jorge. They had this zookeeper who violated a policy and went into the exhibit area with the animal there, and the animal mauled...

RUSH: All right, ladies and gentlemen, let's go back to January 27th, shall we? I have here excerpts from a newspaper story. This is from the UK Daily Mail. I just looked it up there on the Internet. It's January 27th of this year, and here's the headline of that story: "A Drunk and a Bigot -- What the US Presidential Hopeful HASN'T Said About His Father..." Now, I'm only bringing this up. I ignored this when it originally hit on January 27th. I'm bringing this up because of this Mitt Romney...

RUSH: I mentioned this story earlier, and I wanted to get into it in a little bit more detail. It was Sunday in the Washington Post: "Clinton Fights to Keep Impeachment Taboo -- After Spat, Campaigns Know to Expect Swift Reprisal for Any Hint of the Scandal." That's exactly right. That's the old testicle lockbox. This story (tapping paper) explains exactly why there have been no defectors, no leakers, no telling-all books from eight years of the Clintons in the White House. They have made it...

RUSH: Well, this is going to tick you off if you haven't heard about it. "Mexican trucks will be allowed to haul freight deeper into the United States," according to the plans being hatched in Washington. These are not new plans. They've been out there for quite a while, but the news has only recently been made public, and it "drew an angry reaction Friday from labor leaders, safety advocates and members of Congress," not to mention the people in this country are upset over the open borders policy...

RUSH: Here's Sean in Woodbury, Connecticut. Hi, Sean. Welcome to the EIB Network.
CALLER: Hi, Rush. I wanted to call because I visited my newly elected Democrat Congressman Chris Murphy on Friday in a town hall meeting, and for about the first half hour of the meeting he sat there and berated this country, said it's our fault we have terrorism in the world. We caused it. The president's incompetent. The military can't win. It was all the stuff you talk about all the time. I never, ever imagined...

This is quite interesting to me. Yesterday on Meet the Depressed, Carl Levin, Democrat Senator from Michigan, was the guest of Tim Russert, and one of Russert's questions to Carl Levin was: "Senator Levin, if in fact we withdrew most of the troops by March of '08, which is your goal, and all-out civil war broke out, complete, total chaos in Iraq, what do you do then?"
LEVIN: What they say is, that pulling the troops out will lead to a civil war whereas as a matter of fact that's the direction...

RUSH: My name got thrown around a couple times yesterday on the Sunday shows. First Slay the Nation. Bob Schieffer has this conversation with Arnold Schwarzenegger.
SCHIEFFER: Somebody like Rush Limbaugh might say, what you really did, is you just went liberal on us. What do you say in response to that --
SCHWARZENEGGER: I always say --
SCHIEFFER: -- and people on the right?
SCHWARZENEGGER: I always say that you don't have to give up your principles; all you have to do is just...

RUSH: I have to share with you some of my thoughts of the Academy Awards and I do it from this perspective. You had four hours last night. You're a business. You're Hollywood. You're in trouble. Box office receipts are not what they have been in the past. You have four hours to make your case to the American people and to the world about your business and about your industry. That was the dullest, the most boring ever. This was the third-lowest rated Oscar show ever, and I have been told by...

RUSH: Big news this morning: A juror was dismissed from the Lewis Libby trial "after court officials learned she had been exposed to information about the case over the weekend," meaning she had accessed media! "U.S. District Judge Reggie B. Walton ordered the juror removed, saying 'what she had exposure to obviously disqualifies her.' The judge declined to say what information the juror had seen..." He then questioned the remaining jurors individually saying they "had not been tainted." He would...
