ERIN BURNETT: The fear is that Washington's new spirit of cooperation is already gone. Now, sit down. Prepare yourself. You see this, "My Bipartisan Stimulus"? This was written by Rush Limbaugh making a bid to keep bipartisanship alive. That's the op-ed he wrote this morning. He joins us on the news line. Rush, a lot of people are skeptical with a headline from you: "My Bipartisan Stimulus."RUSH: Why skeptical?

Porkulus is the Tip of the Iceberg Obama thinks FDR didn't spend enough fast enough!

RUSH: The headline on the porkulus bill, winning passage last night in the House of Representatives in various places goes like this. "House Passes $800 Billion Stimulus Plan with No Republican Support." The headline ought to be: "House Democrats Vote to Spend $800 Billion in Pork They Don't Have, Republicans Fail to Stop It," or "Republicans Don't Support It." There's nothing wrong with needed stimulus, by the way, if it's stimulus. But this is not stimulus. This is fairness. Do you remember...?...

RUSH: Terry in Mobile, Alabama. Nice to have you with us. Hi.CALLER: Uncommon dittos to you, sir.RUSH: Thank you.CALLER: I'm with you, Rush. I applaud the Republicans in the House. They made that look so easy, and it really is easy. Sticking together when you need to. Well, my question to you is, why does it seem so easy to stick together when we're in the minority -- and when we're in the majority and have the opportunity and the power to do something or stop things, we seem to fall apart?RUSH:...

RUSH: Bismarck, North Dakota. Boy, it's been a long time since we had a call from North Dakota! It's good to know that they haven't all moved out of there.

This coming from a 37-year-old man with a 35-year-old wife, middle class family, I would say. I've been working for 14 years since college....

RUSH: George Soros has a long piece in the Financial Times, called "The Game Changer." The two important pieces in the George Soros piece are these, at least as I read it. "The American consumer no longer can act as the motor of a global economy." The American consumer. In other words, what Obama said yesterday is not right. The American consumer is not a factor in economic recovery. He also said that Obama "must implement a radical comprehensive set of policies." Now, ladies and gentlemen,...

RUSH: You want to hear something funny? We've got Gibbs, by the way. He was on the Today show with Matt Lauer. Now, as you people know, I commonly use the phrase, "bend over forward, bend over backwards, grab the ankles." Matt Lauer wanted to quote me on this today but couldn't bring himself to use the words. He was talking to Robert Gibbs, the "ace" White House press spokesman. There has never been anybody any better that ever did this job.LAUER: There's been a lot of partisan banter going...

RUSH: The word "bipartisan." Everybody bandies that word around, and I've always said that "bipartisanship" is defined in Washington as Republicans caving on their principles and agreeing with Democrats. The vote on the porkulus bill last night was a partisan vote. The victorious side was all Democrats. The bipartisan vote was the losing side. Eleven Democrats joined all the Republicans, 177 of them. Now, Nancy Pelosi, according to The Hill newspaper today, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said she...

Coach Dungy, welcome here. I can't tell you how thrilled and honored I am to be able to speak to you, sir.COACH DUNGY: Well, thank you, Rush. I feel the same. It's great being on...

RUSH: I want to play for you a little bit of the interview on CNBC that happened today. This is not the whole thing, and you will not hear on these two bites, any of the contentiousness from Mark Haines. It's a shame, but go to the website and you can hear the whole thing. It's about five minutes, around five or six minutes. Here is Haines' question to me. He says, "I hear hypocrisy. You're saying in this -- in this piece, you say, uh, you know, 'our economy doesn't know the difference...this...

RUSH: Well, the op-ed that I was told yesterday would run in the Wall Street Journal today announcing my serious and brilliant bipartisan stimulus plan, did indeed run today. As such, I have been doing a couple of television interviews this morning. I did 20 minutes on Fox and I did a jam-packed five minutes right before 11 o'clock on CNBC. Now, both of those interviews are now posted; the video is up at RushLimbaugh.com. The CNBC appearance was quite contentious, but it was fun. Mark Haines...

"We're celebrating what the Republicans did today, but we lost. The bill passed, and the Senate's going to pass this, too. We can't stop it. But what we're doing here is setting the table to win seats back in 2010 and the White House in 2012 after all this overreaching takes place." "The thing that frustrates...

Story #1:President Obama Cranks Up Oval Office ThermostatRUSH: Now, I want to remind you of some comments from Barack Obama during the campaign. I'm not sure. He might have said this in his speech to the "citizens of the world" when he was in Berlin.But regardless where he said it, you will remember: "We can't drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times and then just expect that other countries are going to say, 'Okay.' That's not leadership. That's...
