RUSH: The president of the United States is going to address the nation for 15 minutes tomorrow night on the Iraq war and the war on terror, and I wonder what the left is going to say about this. Will they say that Bush is just a mouthpiece for the evil General Petraeus, or will they say that Petraeus put the words in Bush's mouth? Are they going to do a 180 now? Folks, here's a headline, and this is all you have to know about how the Petraeus hearings went on Monday and Tuesday: "Democrats Scramble...

"When the preface of [Chambers's book] Witness appeared as a feature in The Saturday Evening Post, that issue of the magazine sold a startling half million extra copies on the newsstand. The book came out with a great flurry. The bitterness of the Hiss trial had not subsided. For some of the reviewers, Hiss's innocence had once been a fixed rational conviction, then blind faith; and now, after the publication of that overwhelming book, rank superstition."-William F. Buckley, Jr. in National Review...

RUSH: Dadelut dadelut dadelut dadelut dadelut dadelut dadelut! The global warming update. (Ball of Fire theme song.) RUSH: Gonna rev it up one more time here. (Song continues) RUSH: That, of course, is Paul Shanklin -- well-known "white comedian" -- and his Algore impersonation. (laughing) That's one of our three rotating global warming update themes. I have three global warming stories today. There's a press release today from EarthTimes.org. It actually comes from the Hudson Institute....

RUSH: Claudia in Ormond Beach, Florida, welcome to the EIB Network. I appreciate your patience in waiting.CALLER: Thank you, Rush. I'm excited to speak with you. I would just like to touch on a point that you were talking about earlier about men eating meat and about Americans having to more or less tighten the belt because of high gas prices?RUSH: Yeah. I'm not saying that. A bunch of eggheads at Washington University in St. Louis say that as gasoline prices rise, that Americans will all...

RUSH: Have you heard about a poll -- I didn't talk about this poll, but there's a Zogby poll: "Forty-two percent of Americans believe that President Bush either caused 9/11 or let it happen," did you see that poll? When I saw it, I didn't want to report it. It's bogus. I think in that number, 35% are Democrats, and that just tells us how kooky they've gotten. Well, it turns out there's a blog out there called Sweetness and Light, and they have dug up some information suggesting that Iran may...

RUSH: Steve in Forty Fort, Pennsylvania.CALLER: Yes, Rush, how you doing?RUSH: Fine, sir, thank you.CALLER: Good. Mega dittos from the proud parent of four University of Pittsburgh graduates.RUSH: Well, appreciate that, sir. Thank you.CALLER: My comment is really based on one of the issues you were talking about yesterday. There's a question that I would love to hear asked of all those Democrats who continue to say that, when we went into Iraq, we took our eyes off of Osama Bin Laden and...

RUSH: Ladies and gentlemen, I want to tell you, I saw this story last night, and it's one of the things that kept me up. I was diligently researching this last night, and I wanted to be able to come on the air and provide "expert verification" of this, but I have been unable. So we are just going to have to rely on the assertions here. It's from Live Science. We could call this story: "Science Keeps Bouncing Along." Here's the headline: "Exercise..." (Laughing) "Exercise..." (Laughing) It's...

RUSH: Let's go to yesterday's program. Remember, we had two stories on Mrs. Clinton's fundraising. One was from ABC. This gets interesting, by the way. One was from ABC and their blog, and the other was from the Washington Post, both blogs. I said, "They've given themselves cover here because they can run stories on this and say, 'Hey, we put it on our blog.'" I have to be very careful here. I love bloggers and they're extremely valuable and they do great, great work, but they're still small....

RUSH: You know, I saw a quote today, folks, during the feverish portion of broadcast show prep. It was James Lewis of the AmericanThinker.com. I'm pretty sure that's where I read it. It was a quote from Vladimir Lenin, V. I. Lenin. Lenin said: "The West are wishful thinkers. We will give them what they want to think." I'll explain this in just a second. Greetings, my friends, and welcome. It's Rush Limbaugh, already Wednesday here on the EIB Network. It's Wednesday everywhere where you...

Story #1: NY Times Slashed Price for MoveOn.org Ad RUSH: MoveOn.org's ad. The Republicans tried to get the Democrats to condemn it yesterday in the Senate. They wouldn't have any part it. I didn't expect them to. But, anyway, do you know what a full-page ad (where that ad ran) in the New York Times costs? In their rate book, a full-page ad like the MoveOn.org ad costs $167,000. That's what it costs. Do you know what MoveOn.org paid for it? $65,000. It's $167,000, they paid 65, so they got a $102,000...
