RUSH: I made a prediction on Monday. We spent a lot of time on Monday with toilet paper demonstrations, one sheet and all that, bouncing off Sheryl Crow's admonition that we "save the planet" by using one square of toilet paper per bathroom visit, and I said this. This is what I said on Monday on this very program.RUSH ARCHIVE: Here's the lesson. She's serious about this. Now, I fully expect, by the way, before the end of the day, "We were just joking to make a point," is what they'll say....

RUSH: We've got a global warming update. Here is one of our three themes. GOD OF HELLFIRE: I am the god of hellfire! RUSH: I wasn't ready for it!(Playing of "Fire" by the Crazy World of Arthur Brown.) RUSH: The Crazy World of Arthur Brown. The Wicked Witch of Wherever melting because of global warming, destroying us all! It's a pretty interesting stack of global warming stuff today, and I actually had this story last week because, as you know, I don't do the global warming stuff every day because...

RUSH: Now, do you remember back Thursday, April the 19th, we were talking about the massacre at Virginia Tech? Well, here's what I said. We'll go back to the audio sound bites. We'll just play this because I want to tell you it worked. The Media Matters people fell for it, and the Drive-By Media fell for it, and this is a perfect illustration of what I was talking about on that day and what this illustration was about. The critics of this program do not listen to it. They go to these "watchdog"...

RUSH: Melissa, thanks for waiting. You're next on the EIB Network. Hello.CALLER: Hello.RUSH: Yes?CALLER: I was wondering, okay, since America does have so many problems like the poor and crime and pollution and the list goes on and on and on and on, how can we ever have time to solve those problems in our own backyard and get our own backyard cleaned up if we are spending so much time trying to clean up everybody else's problems, i.e., Iraq? You would think that we're never going to be able...

RUSH: All right, Rudy Giuliani. Let's go to the audio sound bites here. Rudy is turning up the heat, getting into some partisanship here, which is good, because there's a huge difference between Republicans and Democrats on the war. So say it! And Rudy did. He said, "We have to stay on offense. The Democrats want to put us back on defense." Yesterday in Manchester, New Hampshire, at the Rockingham County Republican Party's annual Lincoln Day Dinner, a portion of Rudy's remarks.GIULIANI: This...

RUSH: To Leslie in Seattle. Glad you called. Hello.CALLER: Rush, bless you.RUSH: Thank you.CALLER: I wanted to call and say that I just listened to Barbara Walters spiel on and spew on about the president's motorcade that was outside of her street, on the way to her house. She couldn't cross the street. The police would not let her cross, and she said to the policeman, "Don't you know who I am?" and then she said --RUSH: Wait, wait, wait! Whoa, whoa, whoa. Are you saying she told this story?CALLER:...

RUSH: Hartford, Connecticut, this is Neil. Nice to have you, sir, on the EIB Network.CALLER: Mega dittos, O'exalted provider of show prep.RUSH: Well, thank you, sir. RUSH: I can't help but remember, I think it feels like about a year ago now, you were talking about one of your fabulous cigar dinners that you went to.RUSH: Yes?CALLER: And if I remember your telling of the tale as I hung on your every syllable, I seem to recall you saying that you and Rudy Giuliani had each put up a hundred thousand...

RUSH: To Vancouver, this is Doug. Nice to have you with us, sir. Welcome.CALLER: I'm pleased to talk with you, Rush. Long-time listener, first-time caller. My brother Dean in Minnesota actually introduced me to your show a few years ago, but anyway straight to the point. You mentioned earlier about the Drive-By Media and the doom and gloom of the Dow hitting 13,000? Well, I'll tell you what. Last night I was watching Brian Williams. I don't remember which network he's on, but --RUSH: Wait,...

RUSH: Look at this. The Wall Street Journal (snapping pages), right here in my formerly nicotine-stained fingers, lead editorial: "Harry's War: Democrats are taking ownership of a defeat in Iraq." Hmm! Where have we heard that before, ladies and gentlemen? (Gasp!) Why, right here on this program! Democrats own defeat. There's no question about it. This is about Dingy Harry. You know, I have to share with you something here from Rich Galen, who has this blog that's called Mullings, and he's...

Please.CALLER: (laughing)RUSH:...

RUSH: My gosh, folks! I don't know how I missed this. There's breaking news going on right before my eyes and I missed it. John McCain has announced for the presidency! He's up in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. I'm sorry to not be the first to tell you this. I think everybody's caught by surprise with this announcement, but McCain is going to run for the presidency. Who would have thought this? He's out there, and part of his remarks were that the America people are tired of insults in politics...

RUSH: I have to tell you, I had this super-secret meeting yesterday about which nothing I can divulge, but I'll tell you, yesterday -- and we all have these experiences. I haven't had one in a long time. Generally, as a powerful, influential member of the media, I'm immune from these kinds of things. I had a day yesterday where everything that could go wrong did, other than the super-secret meeting. You have these days where you walk through a door and you miss it by an inch and you bang your...
