|  |  RUSH: If you missed the first hour, it's too bad. I'm going to be repeating some of these sound bites throughout the program. Mrs. Clinton is lying through her teeth -- there's no other way to put this -- in her appearances on Saturday in Iowa about why she voted for the Iraq war, how Bush misused her vote; lied to her; had she’d known then what she knows now, blah, blah, blah. We have put the lie to it with her own words on audiotape from March of 2003 before the Iraqi war even started when she's explaining to that very group, Code Pink, that she'd done her own research and that we couldn't count on the world to do this, just like her husband couldn't count on the world to help in Bosnia. We had to go it alone because we were the only people that can. It is dramatic and it is very damning for Mrs. Clinton.
It's on YouTube. It's in the public domain. I doubt the Drive-By Media will use it. They are suppressing most everything that could be harmful to her. With one exception here, Frank Rich in his piece in the New York Times yesterday, not impressed with Hillary's posturing on Iraq. In a very cutting line, he writes, “John Kerry could not have said it worse himself,” meaning the things Hillary is saying in Iowa over the weekend to try to extricate herself from this embarrassing vote for the Iraq war. “John Kerry couldn't have said it worse himself.” He has become a standing joke in the Democrat Party, and he has to go overseas, surround himself with representatives of nations theoretically our enemies in order to have friends. He goes over there and he insults the country, calls us a pariah. I'll tell you what it's about with him. In addition to his leftist leanings and his über-liberalism, it's personal. I know these people. I know these people like every square inch of my glorious naked body, and he is outraged that you rejected him. He is outraged this country rejected him, and he can't believe it happened! Any country that rejects him deserves to be insulted and told what for. That is also a motivation for Kerry's words.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT | | RUSH: [John Kerry] He got in on the action over the weekend, too, does it again, another botched joke, calling America an international pariah while he was at the World Economic Forum in Davos. (video) He was on a panel with the former president of the terror state of Iran, Mohammed Khatami, and this is what he said.
KERRY: Americans have an unfortunate habit of seeing the world and other people exclusively through an American lens --
RUSH: What?
KERRY: -- and judging their aspirations --
RUSH: What?
KERRY: -- through that lens.
RUSH: What?
KERRY: We have a crisis of confidence in the Middle East, in the world, really. I've never seen our country as isolated as much of a set of international pariah for a number of reasons as it is today. … We should be less engaged in this neocon rhetoric of regime change and more involved in building relationships and living up to our own values so that people make a different judgment about us.
RUSH: You know, there is so much psychologically wrong with this -- well, factually wrong and psychologically dangerous, and very troubling. "We should be less engaged in neocon rhetoric of regime change and more along the lines of building relationships?" You know, the main argument that people have on my side of the aisle with what we're doing in Iraq is we're spending too much time building relationships, we're spending too much time building up a relationship rather than kicking the butt of the enemy, which is what the American people want. "Living up to our own values? Seeing everything through an American lens?" Living up to our own values, he would have to support what Bush is doing. Our own values are freedom, republican democracy and this sort of thing, which is what we are trying to put together in Iraq, and then the killer is so that people make a different judgment about us. This is a guy who lives in fear of what people think of him and is willing to be whatever he has to to get that approval.
I'm going to tell you something, it's not just his policy matters that are causing him to say these things. He's not alone, by the way. This is a liberal tradition to go across the oceans on foreign soil, call your country the worst place on the planet. Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, John Kerry, Jimmy Carter again, Jimmy Carter again, now John Kerry has done it again. It's a liberal tradition, go overseas and trash the country. And, of course, Kerry said, “Well, I'm not trashing the country. I'm trashing leaders of the country. You misunderstand Limbaugh because you're just stupid.” Right. Well, Kerry's got this hang-up, folks, the American people rejected him, and he just can't deal with it. You didn't realize what a gift you had in John Kerry. You didn't realize what a brilliant elitist, smartest guy we could have had in the White House ever. You rejected him, and if you reject John Kerry, the only difference between you and a bag of dog doo-doo is the bag. He's got a chip on his shoulder about having lost the election and being rejected by the American people, and so America is a pariah.
