I appreciate you taking my call.RUSH: You bet.CALLER: Hey, I'm going to get straight to the point. I've asked all my local mentors about this and they haven't rebuked me, and so I'm coming to you. I've been kicking this around, and I don't want to even think about it anymore, but I can't help it. BP, they've got a great track...

RUSH: Hillary Clinton. She's secretary of state. You know that. Hillary Clinton. But she went off the reservation yesterday in Washington at the Brookings Institution. She spoke about the Obama administration's national security strategy, and a reporter asked her during the Q&A: "How do you think that we can manage the balance between fiscal responsibility -- which is of course very necessary -- but also attention to the most vulnerable, the poorest segments of both American population and...

RUSH: John Brennan, you remember this? We had this last week or couple of weeks ago. This is a look back. He made an address to some Muslim students at New York University Law School hosted by the White House Office of Public Engagement and the Islamic center at NYU. Deputy national security advisor for Homeland Security and counterterrorism John Brennan spoke. He spoke in Arabic.BRENNAN: (Speaking Arabic) Now, don't tell the folks who don't speak Arabic what I said, okay?RUSH: Now, this guy...

It's such an honor to talk to you.RUSH: Thank you very much.CALLER: I just wanted to let you know I was thinking about that eight-week listening challenge you were talking about, and I wanted to tell you that I grew up a Rush Baby.

RUSH: Keith, Lancaster, California, I'm glad you waited. You're on Open Line Friday. Great to have you here.CALLER: Thank you very much for having me, Rush.RUSH: You bet.CALLER: I want to talk a little bit about Arizona. And first of all I want to say that the boycotting of Arizona is nothing but propaganda. Second of all, I think Mayor Villaraigosa and Barbara Boxer and Nancy Pelosi and the gang are all pickpocketing these people that come across the border and I consider that slavery because...

RUSH: he Drive-Bys are just melting, melting over the humanity and the warmth and the personality. Obama had the courage to make himself human in the midst of this disaster by referencing the fact that his little girl came into the bathroom while he was shaving. Remember he said this? This closed out the presser.OBAMA: When I woke up this morning, uhhh, and I'm shaving and Malia knocks on my bathroom door and she peeks in her head and she says, uh, uhhh, "Did you plug the hole yet, daddy?" Because...

It's fascinating, Rush. It's a wonderful walk through the last 20 years. You've been at the eye of the storm. You've been the wind beneath the wings of conservative thought. It's a pleasure...

RUSH: Ben Stein today has a pretty nice column in the American Spectator in which he says (summarizing): "Look, all this finger pointing is not accomplishing anything. The oil companies don't wish this had happened. If they could take it back, they would do it. Transocean, the operators of the rig, they wish this hadn't happened. Nobody wishes this had happened. You can't blame Obama. He's not Superman." All well and true, but he portrays himself as such, from the moment he started campaigning!...

RUSH: Let's get this out of the way. This is last Sunday, New Haven. Clinton did the commencement address at Yale. Here is a portion of what he said.CLINTON: Hawaii, the state where President Obama has born, has done everything they can to debunk this myth that he wasn't born in America. They've done everything but blow up his birth certificate, but it in neon lights and hang it on the dome of the Capitol. But 45% of registered Republicans still believe that he is serving unconstitutionally....

RUSH: The New York Times was able to ferret out a bit of deception. The story of the day is in the New York Times, a brazen bit of deceit. Obama goes to his press conference yesterday while everybody thinks that the top kill method is not only in progress at that moment but that we are having some success. However, the Times inadvertently publishes -- I can't believe they did this on purpose. Well, let me just read what they say here. This is exactly from the Times story: "The top kill effort...

Story #1:Drive-Bys Hope: Oil Spill Could Strengthen HurricanesRUSH: As we head into the Memorial Day weekend: "Hurricanes could be stronger than usual because black oil would heat water faster and accelerate formation." So the hurricane geniuses are now revising their forecasts because of all the oil in the Gulf of Mexico. The theory is the oil is dark, it's black. It gets hot faster than the water does, and if a hurricane comes along, I mean it's over. Why don't we all just commit suicide and...
