Senator Kennedy was there to discuss immigration reform, but during the appearance he broke into a rendition of song called don't Give Up On Me, singing it in Spanish. KENNEDY : Shall I sing my song?PIOLIN: Yes, why not?...

RUSH: We're going to get to Trent Lott's stuff. We're going to get to the Fairness Doctrine stuff. I go away for a week and the whole left ramps up trying to get rid of me. It isn't going to happen but they're all flirting with it and talking about it. We'll get to that and immigration of course.

RUSH: Now to the audio sound bites. This is from C-SPAN this morning. Steve Scully, the host. The topic today was talk radio and the immigration debate, and Scully takes a call from Huntersville, North Carolina, on the C-SPAN's Republican line, and he says, "Who do you listen to, caller, and how does talk radio influence the debate, if it has?" C-SPAN CALLER: Rush Limbaugh came along, a much more polished gentleman, I think a better thinker, and certainly a more elegant speaker, and he influenced...

RUSH: I just saw something on the Drudge Report that has given me an idea, ladies and gentlemen. Listen to this. This is from LiveScience.com. There's a bunch of online betting sites. You can set a betting line on anything, and one of these sites is USBets.com, and with the long-awaited iPhone hitting the store shelves on Friday -- you going to get an iPhone, Snerdley? You going to get one? I don't use the phone. It's such a pain but it looks like a cool device. I'd wait for the second...

RUSH: Mike, you might want to get the most recent Justice Brothers commercial. Grab that and let me know when you've got it, because the Reverend Jackson was arrested Saturday at a demonstration outside a south Chicago suburban gun shop and charged with one count of criminal trespass to property. "Jackson was arrested when he refused to move away from the entrance to Chuck's Gun Shop in Riverdale, police said. He has protested with other community activists outside the shop in recent weeks after...

RUSH: Let me explain what we did last week while I was out. We have really, really, really upgraded the Essential Stack of Stuff, which was already an amazing collection -- a library, if you will -- of conservatism and history. But what we've done now, we've updated each category and we've added some new categories and recent issues like the whole controversy over "Barack, the 'Magic Negro,'" the little feud with Arnold Schwarzenegger over conservatism that I had. All the recent Rush to Excellence...

RUSH: We've heard audio sound bites today from Trent Lott and from Senator Feinstein, and I'm sure that Senator McCain and Senator Lindsey Grahamnesty all feel the same way, that we just don't know what's in it, that you don't know what's in it, and we in talk radio don't know what's in it, and you're just a bunch of uninformed, extremist boobs who are getting in the way of them doing their job. Meanwhile, everybody talks about how low Bush's ratings are, Congress' approval ratings are in the tank....

RUSH: You remember the little brouhaha and the contretemps that erupted the week before I left down in south Florida? The Broward County commissioners led by Stacy Ritter who, by the way, still sounds angry as she can be, even though I acknowledged that she's a babe -- at least from the neck up.

I tried to tell these idiots...

RUSH: Really there is not too much to say about last week. I just played golf. I mean, that's it. What do you want to know? What else is there to know besides that?

Went up to Vermont and played a great old course called Ekwanok. Yeah, went to Vermont. Never set foot in Vermont. I'll tell you...
