RUSH: I've received a slew of e-mails from people who have read a Drive-By Media report that "24" in the next season is going green. For example, "May day, may day, trouble on '24.' Dear Rush: I haven't listened to the podcast yet, but I read with horror that the new season of '24' will have Jack Bauer fighting global warming. Can you use your influence to change this script?" Ladies and gentlemen, you cannot be blamed for totally misunderstanding this. This is a testament to the absolute...

There wasn't a Republican to be found. They were all Democrats,...

RUSH: over the weekend the Democrat Congress totally caved and gave Bush spying authority. (Laughing.) They just did, and the reason is very simple. They know the threat we face, and when push comes to shove, when that FISA judge made his ruling that these two phone calls fell outside the limit, that's when the Bush administration ran. Look, folks, the Democrats know what the threat is. They see the intel. They know what's going on. That's why, if they're in the White House in '08, whoever it...

RUSH: Cookie worked fast. We have these two sound bites, and the owner of the Murray Energy Corporation, the owner of the mine where the six miners are missing. I had gotten a heads-up that this guy launched against the media today for misreporting what's happening out there by name and that he also started attacking the stupidity of energy legislation in this country. His name is Robert Murray, chairman of Murray Energy Corp. He held a press conference and explained what was going on in the...

RUSH: All right, one more thing about the bridge in Minneapolis. Everybody's asking this question, "Can Congress solve our need for bridge repairs?" Tom Sowell has a great piece today which actually inspired my forthcoming commentary on this. He said the incentives are all wrong. The incentives are not to fix things. The incentives for politicians are to start brand-new things, ribbon cutting ceremonies be it for the new old folks home, a new water treatment center, what have you. Have a big...

RUSH: This morning on CNBC, the host there, Dylan Ratigan, was interviewing Mrs. Clinton. The question, "Is it the role of the government and tax policy to try to reconcile fairness?"HILLARY: Well, you know, I -- I think it certainly is. I mean tax policy is one of the instruments the government uses. I mean, George Bush has two major commitments in his term as president, tax cuts for people like Bill and me, and the Iraq war, neither of which he's paid for. And at some point you've got to...

RUSH: We read today in the New York Post that Pinch Sulzberger, who is the scion of the New York Times company, is going to change policy abruptly very soon and eliminate the Times Select Service. Now, you may not know what the Times Select Service was. It was the attempt by the New York Times to require subscriptions to get columnists and op-ed columnists and other certain special features, and I think it was priced at $49 a year. What it had the effect of doing was walling off these nitwits...

RUSH: Mia Farrow has offered herself as a hostage in exchange for a rebel that's being kept in Darfur. "US actress Mia Farrow has offered her freedom in exchange for that of a respected Darfur rebel figure virtually imprisoned for more than 13 months. Sudan Liberation Army (SLA) humanitarian coordinator Suleiman Jamous has been confined to a UN hospital in Kordofan, neighbouring Darfur, since the UN moved him there without permission last year." So Mia Farrow, wasn't she in Rosemary's Baby?...

RUSH: I got a Global Warming Stack. Let me just titillate you with one of the stories in the stack here. This is from The Times of London. I'll just give you a quote. Let me give you the headline then an excerpt of the story. "Walking to the shops 'damages planet more than going by car.'" That's what it says right here. I'm holding this story in my formerly nicotine-stained fingers. "Walking does more than driving to cause global warming, a leading environmentalist has calculated. Food production...

RUSH: Well, try this headline: "Macho men not so good for long-lasting love, study. -- Forget the square jaw, forget the rugged complexion, the tough guy macho attitude. What women really want is a man with full lips and feminine features. This according to a British study published on Wednesday. The findings add to previous research about masculinity and offer further insight into what people look for in others when choosing potential partners, said evolutionary psychologist Lynda Boothroyd..."...
