RUSH: Time for some global warming news. (Playing of The Crazy World of Arthur Brown's "Fire" Global Warming Update Theme.) RUSH: The Crazy World of Arthur Brown. It hit the top of the charts in 1968. I used to play that song as a struggling, young disc jockey, star-of-the-future, in my second year in broadcasting, 1968 back in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. Okay, Global Warming Update time. Some doozies today in the stack. First off, I know. I've been pummeled with e-mails from people who happened...

RUSH: There's a Drive-By Media scandal happening out there. Not many people making big whoopee over this in the Drive-By Media, but Katie Couric does these essays, "Katie Couric's Notebook," and I guess these are on the website. I don't think these are part of the CBS Evening News with Katie Couric because I haven't watched it since last September. (interruption) Good point: neither has anybody else. Anyway (laughing), the way these things happen is that she has a bunch of writers, and they...

RUSH: Last night on Fox News, the Big Story's John Gibson interviewed via phone Monty Johnson, who is a proud Republican and a neighbor of John and Elizabeth Edwards. Of course, John Edwards' wife, Elizabeth, said, "He's a gun-toting Republican. I don't want my kids getting anywhere near him. His property looks like it's a slum," and he's responded, (paraphrased) "Look, my property taxes have gone up twice in value here. They've doubled because they built this big house down the road from me that...

RUSH: Let's squeeze another call in here before we have to go to the break. It's Frank in New Orleans and you're up, sir. Welcome.CALLER: Hello, Rush. This is Frank.RUSH: Yeah. Hi, Frank. Welcome. It's nice to have you with us.CALLER: Thank you, Rush. Well, like a little while ago you brought up fuel prices, and I was wondering, do you think that between ten and $20 billion a month is profit enough? I think it's obscene, and I think the first candidate that asks for some kind of price control...

RUSH: To Jacksonville, Florida. Thisis Alex. Welcome, sir, nice to have you with us.CALLER (road noise): Oh, Rush, thanks, man! Mega dittos to you, man. Like I said to yourcall screener, I'm one of your black Republicans here in Sacramento, Florida.RUSH: I'm glad to have you out there. You're on a cell phone. It's a little bit difficult for me to hear you, but plug away.CALLER: Yes, I was just calling to back my support behind that Justice commercial, sir. I think I might have to use them...

RUSH: Dave in Rosemead, California, welcome to the EIB Network, sir. Hello.CALLER: Hi. How are you doing, Rush?RUSH: Good, sir.CALLER: I'm not going to say "dittos" because it's stupid. If I didn't enjoy the show, I wouldn't be listening.RUSH: What do you think "dittos" means.CALLER: It means that I enjoy the show. I like the show.RUSH: That's good. Most people think it's a --CALLER: It doesn't mean I necessarily agree with you. I agree with about nine (cell phone crackle) of what you...

RUSH: Michael in Charleston, South Carolina, thank you for waiting. You're next on the program today.CALLER: Hey, Rush! Yeah, let's start the poll right now. I disapprove of Madam Speaker. Forgive my passion, but I find it ludicrous for the Democrats to say that they support the troops but they're going to base their votes on whether to fund them or not on whether they get a place to store their peanuts. Give me a break! Let's just say, "Where's the integrity? You either support the troops...

RUSH: All right, to the phones. Neil in Loveland, Colorado. Thank you, sir, for waiting and welcome to the EIB Network.CALLER: Hi, Rush, mega dittos and thank you for all you do for us. You are it.RUSH: Well, I appreciate that. Just one of the many forming the "consensus" I refer to here. Thank you very much, Neil.CALLER: All right. Well, the subject you're talking about, Speaker Pelosi today is just incredible, and your morning update on her today got me inspired to call.RUSH: Yes.CALLER:...

RUSH: Well, poor old Rudy Giuliani. He got tricked into going on the Price and Right, and didn't know the price. The usual setup questions from the Drive-By Media. They asked him what a loaf of bread costs, and a gallon of milk was, and he didn't know. He hadn't stepped into a grocery store lately. So there's a little bit of embarrassment out there. I don't know what he said bread was, but he said a gallon of milk was a buck fifty. How many of you really know the price? No, no, no, no! I mean...

RUSH: Here it is. It was Tuesday, April 3rd, ladies and gentlemen, and this is what I said on this program about Pelosi: "[A]nd if she had the guts, if she had the chance she'd go to Iran and meet with Ahmadinejad and do the same thing, and she may well do it before the 2008 election. I wouldn't put it past her." I told you people! I know these people like every square inch of my glorious, shrinking-quickly naked body. I saw this news last night, "Nancy Pelosi to Iran," and I said, "I gotta remember,"...

RUSH: I'm sure you've seen the story, but you may not know all about the story here, all the details. I have two versions of this story. One is from the Los Angeles Times, and the other one is from the UK Times Online. Let me put these stories together. Both stories have to do with the same subject.First off, the LA Times story: "Stem Cells Shown to Rein in Type 1 Diabetes -- Researchers have demonstrated for the first time that the progression of Type 1 diabetes..." That's the bad kind. They're...
