RUSH: All right, Max Baucus has introduced his health care bill, and everybody is ripping it to shreds. I mean Charles Grassley, who is a Republican on that committee and was one of the Gang of Six, "It looks like we've been overlooked. It looks like we don't matter here." Apparently Baucus just went out there, he got fed up with waiting to get any kind of agreement on the committee, just went out and said, "It's my bill," except he's not saying "I." He's saying "we" and "ours." So we've put...

RUSH: ABC News has apologized to the White House and Obama and to CNBC over the off-the-record tweets of the Nightline host Terry Moran. We have the sound bite. They might apologize for it, but it's out there, it's in the public domain now. CNBC tried to suppress the audio of the so-called off-record interview between John Harwood and President Obama.

RUSH: From The Politico: "Study: Women Lawmakers Best Men." And guess who it's written by? A chick, Erika Lovley. It's written by a woman named Erika Lovley.
