Tom Ridge on Rush and Powell

RUSH: C-Span's Washington Journal this morning, the host, Steve Scully, was interviewing former Governor Tom Ridge. I told you yesterday Schieffer was on the show the other day, and he said the biggest moment in his career is when he asked Cheney: "Okay, who is the better Republican, Powell or Limbaugh?" and Cheney said, "Limbaugh." Schieffer said he's still getting comments, the most comments, most feedback ever. Scully says, "When the former Vice President Dick Cheney tells Bob Schieffer that...

Caller's Brilliant Catch on Empathy

RUSH: We've got Paul in Nashville, Tennessee. Great to have you on the program, Paul. Thank you for waiting. CALLER: Hi, Rush. Glad-my-name-is-not-Henry dittos to you. RUSH: Thank you, sir. CALLER: So we're not able to judge the spirit of someone in order to determine the financial outlay that we're committing to them based on this health care standard. So we don't have the ability to quantify our empathy for this health care recipient under my new plan, but I will appoint a Supreme Court...

Why Society Needs Hypocrisy

RUSH: One more thing about Mark Sanford, before we go to the break and get back to your phone calls. I would posit something here. And there's a lot of people. I've gotten a lot of e-mail since the Sanford story broke: "See, Rush? This is why Republicans have to get rid of social issues. We just have to get rid of them, because this hypocrisy is going to kill us. People are people; human beings are human beings. They're going to have affairs. They're going to have abortions. They're going...

Dem Energy Bill: Follow the Money

RUSH: As we discussed at the top on the program, guess what just...? It's happening now. Obama is in the stupid Rose Garden, pushing the energy bill. They're panicked. They've got to get this done tomorrow. There's a bunch of wavering Democrat votes on this thing. It's by no means a lock. The president went out there and said something that's just not true. He said that whoever leads the world in new green technology will lead the global economy. Talk to Spain about it. Spain has tried...

Henry Gets a Health Care Lesson

RUSH: Henry in Hamden, Connecticut, you're next. Glad you called. Welcome to the EIB Network.CALLER: Hi. It's great to talk to you. I'm a longtime listener but first time to call. And I just wanted to say, I listened to what you were saying about you pay for all your medical bills. And I'd love to be able to do that. But, Rush, you are in the top one-thousandth of one percent. And so what about the rest of us who are below that and we need to have health insurance because I risk losing...

Chris Matthews Misses Point of the Joke About Mark Sanford and JFK

RUSH: You want to hear something funny? Go to sound bite No. 11. Yesterday when the Mark Sanford stuff hit, I happened to say on the program: "Oh, no, he could have been our JFK. He could have been our JFK." Chris Matthews didn't understand. MATTHEWS: Rush Limbaugh said today his reaction to the Sanford news. Let's listen to Rushbo. RUSH: Oh, Sanford could have been our JFK. Oh, another career down the tubes. Nobody caught him! Nobody caught -- nobody caught him in the act! He came back:...

Don't Let Obama Kill Your Spirit

RUSH: What do you mean have I lost my spirit? Did it sound like I've lost my spirit the first hour? How could you ask me that? No, the government should not be deciding whether I've lost my spirit. But, sadly, the government is deciding. The government is affecting people's spirit. That's the whole damn problem. Anyway, greetings and welcome back here, folks. Rush Limbaugh, America's real anchorman, your highly trained broadcast specialist behind the Golden EIB Microphone. 1-800-282-2882...

Did Mark Sanford Simply Give Up?

RUSH: I'm checking e-mail. "Rush, are you kidding, this theory of yours about Sanford?" No, I'm not. My first thought was he said: "To hell with this. The Democrats are destroying the country. We can't do anything to stop it. I gave everything I had to stop it here in South Carolina. My wife's left me, the hell with it. I'm going to enjoy life what little time I've got left." Folks, there are a lot of people that are looking at life, they're saying screw it. They're saying screw it....

Ask Your Congressman If He'll Join the Obama Public Health Care Plan

RUSH: John Fund today On the Trail, the Wall Street Journal: "Beware Obamacare's Fine Print." I referenced this earlier. "There's a reason the Obama health care plan is being rushed through Congress this summer -- because the American people would likely never support it if given time to absorb and understand such fine print," as the unions being exempt from any tax increase on any health care benefits provided by their boss. "If the union carve-out isn't sufficient to excite public anger, wait...

Obama's Government Will Decide If You Deserve Medical Treatment?

RUSH: Let's go to one of the most interesting exchanges in the infomercial last night. And ABC's Jake Tapper, in describing this, says: "President Obama struggled Wednesday to explain whether his health care reform proposals would force normal Americans to make sacrifices that wealthier, more powerful people -- like the president himself -- wouldn't face. The probing questions came from two skeptical neurologists" during the ABC News infomercial on Obama healthcare reform. And the first question...

The Answer to Obama is "NO"

RUSH: The Obama healthcare show last night on ABC came in last place. The ratings are in, at least the overnights are. The overnights give an indication what the national rating is going to be. The rating was sickly. The Town Hall special struggled for viewers. It got 4.7 million viewers, 1.1 million in the 18 to 49 demo, and it had the fewest viewers in the 10:00 hour, which is when it was on. Greetings, folks. Great to have you with us in the fastest week in media. Already Thursday. They...

Stack of Stuff Quick Hits Page

Story #1: NYC to Require Anti-Smoking Signs at RetailersRUSH: Get this. Let me find this in the stack because you're talking here about the whole notion of these businesses being run out of the state because of taxes and everything else. And, therefore, the tax base is dropping and the State's got less money and you, therefore, are in a job that's expendable. Something Bloomberg is doing in New York. New tobacco taxes, new smoking rules, and they're having to post big no-smoking signs in every...
