\"Listen<\/a><\/p>\n

RUSH: I want to address something here, and I might botch it at first. I just got an e-mail during the break, and the subject line was: “I\u2019m skeptical. Well, you say that there are gonna be ramifications. Obama\u2019s not gonna get hurt by any of this. I mean, you know, America was nice while it lasted.” I had an e-mail exchange with some friends today about an admission that I made to them about my naivete. One of the things that I have been really naive about — I\u2019m sad to admit this — for the entire 25-plus years I\u2019ve been doing this I have been under the impression that whether you call them Republicans or whether you call them conservative, that there are people fighting the left, trying to stop them, trying to educate and inform people so as to reverse this.<\/p>\n

And I have, frankly, this is my naivete, I\u2019ve been shocked to learn how few people actually are doing that on our side. I mean, it\u2019s obvious at this moment now there\u2019s no pushback from the Republican Party on any of this. And, in fact, when there is pushback to any of this, by conservatives, oftentimes they are attacked by the Republican establishment. I\u2019ve been asking myself, I interviewed a guy once who wrote a book about how the left has corrupted education. And the book was replete with examples, and it was devastating. It was a great book about how the left has totally corrupted and bastardized not just public, but all the way up to college, education. And in the interview I said, “Well, how long do you think this is gonna last? How long is it gonna take us to retake this?”<\/line><\/p>\n

He was totally flummoxed. He said, “What do you mean, retake it?”<\/p>\n

I said, “When are we gonna kick them out and regain control of the education system?”<\/p>\n

He was totally flummoxed. I said, “Well, why did you write the book? I mean, why spend the time and the effort of writing a book detailing all the corruption of education by the left, if the purpose isn\u2019t to reverse it?”<\/p>\n

“Oh, well, that, Rush, we\u2019re not gonna be able to ever do that.”<\/p>\n

I said, “Well, then what am I doing here?” This is years ago. I talked to, at the time, an editor of a famous conservative journal of opinion. I said, “How long do you think it might be, realistically, before we can educate people to the left and assume a dominant position as conservatives?”<\/p>\n

“Oh, Rush, it\u2019s never gonna happen.”<\/p>\n

I said, “Well, then why are you doing what you\u2019re doing? What are you doing? Why do you want to run a magazine here?”<\/p>\n

“Well, we\u2019re just chronicling what\u2019s happening. We\u2019re a journal of opinion.”<\/p>\n

“Yeah, but is there anything behind your opinion? Okay, anybody can tell you what they think. I mean, what\u2019s the point?” I mean, I have to tell you, my purpose here every day is to beat this stuff back. And I\u2019ve been honest with you, upfront about my objective, and that is to create as large an informed, participating, voting bloc of citizenry possible. I know I\u2019m just one show. I don\u2019t expect to convert the whole country, but I\u2019ve always thought of myself as part of a team effort, and I\u2019ve been shocked. This is my naivete. I\u2019ve been shocked to learn how few people actually approach this with that objective in mind. And I\u2019m not exaggerating this at all. I am stunned at the number of people who simply want to commentate. “Well, this is who the left is and this is what they\u2019re doing,” and then leave it at that.<\/p>\n

Why are you doing it? I mean, when I started this program it was to be a success on the radio. I had multiple reasons for doing this. That was the first one, \u2019cause if I didn\u2019t pull that off all the rest of it would never happen. But I\u2019m not just uttering syllables here. I am not just talking to hear my head rattle. I passionately believe what I believe. I\u2019m very proud of what I believe. I think it\u2019s worth being a majority opinion in the country, trying to affect that. That is why I wrote this book for kids, Rush Revere and the Brave Pilgrims. The whole point of this book is not to have another book out there. I really couldn\u2019t care less about having another book. I\u2019ve been there, done that.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The express purpose of this book is to reach people that the radio show doesn\u2019t, young people, a younger demographic and their parents and their grandparents to try to counter some of the crap that they\u2019re taught when they go to school. It\u2019s an attempt to correct the historical record that\u2019s been corrupted in schools. Nothing complicated, nothing controversial, just the truth. In this case, in this book, it\u2019s the Pilgrims because they were the forerunners of the establishment of the United States of America. They, unbeknownst to them, were laying down a pathway for people.<\/p>\n

I look at how their story has been lied about and corrupted itself, how people have blamed the early arrivals for all the problems that exist here in this country and around the world. It\u2019s not enough just to tell people what I think. I\u2019m actually trying to effect some change with it, and I\u2019ve been stunned to find out that I\u2019m in a real small minority of people with this attitude, and this is my naivete. So I get an e-mail, “Well, I\u2019m skeptical. There\u2019s not gonna be any ramifications to this lie. Obama\u2019s gonna get away with it.”<\/p>\n

Okay, fine. Want to give up, give up. Why do this, then? I mean, I\u2019ve already proven that I can do the number one radio show for 25 years. I\u2019ve got nothing left to prove there. I\u2019ve already proven I can attract and hold an audience and charge confiscatory advertising rates. So why am I doing this? This is all about honest passion, deep love, caring and appreciation for the country and the people who live in it, and the abject fear I have of what\u2019s happening to it and making some sort of little effort here to stopping it and maybe reversing it.<\/p>\n

And I\u2019ve been under the impression that everybody on my side is doing the same. That is why, over the 25 years, when anybody, any conservative, Ollie North, I don\u2019t care who it is, when they\u2019ve come under assault, Clarence Thomas, I don\u2019t care, whether I knew \u2019em or not, I ran in there and I defended \u2019em to the hilt because of the cause, because I knew exactly why they were being targeted. Sarah Palin. I went in there and defended these people because I know that it\u2019s an effort to undermine everything I believe. They attacked Palin, they attacked Ollie, they attacked Clarence Thomas, they\u2019re attacking us, me.<\/p>\n

Well, it\u2019s not enough just to come here and tell you, “Oh, look what they\u2019re saying about Palin. See ya, folks, have a great day.” Then tomorrow, “Oh, look what they said about Newt. See ya, folks, have a great day.” Why am I doing this? And the reason I wrote this book is to try to counter what\u2019s going on. Why would you write a book on how the left has corrupted education if you didn\u2019t have some desire to fight it? And this is what has frankly stunned me ever since Barack Obama\u2019s election. I understand there\u2019s a fear of the media, and I understand there\u2019s a fear of Obama\u2019s race, but it\u2019s time to get past that. The guy\u2019s president. He\u2019s destroying the foundations of this country, as founded. He\u2019s literally setting his sights on transforming this country into something it was never founded to be.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t think that should happen, and I\u2019ve been under the impression that everybody else that\u2019s not part of the Democrat Party has been of the same mind-set, and that\u2019s where I\u2019ve been wrong. So those of us who fight back upset the applecart, are those who just want to sit there and accept it and try to manage their lives and careers in the midst of this mess because we\u2019re upsetting the applecart. So we have to then be attacked as whatever.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s why they\u2019re going after Cruz. What are they going after Ted Cruz for? What\u2019s he done to anybody? It\u2019s Obama they ought to be going after! Why are they going after Mike Lee? That\u2019s why we defend these guys. They\u2019re out there actually trying to beat this stuff back, and they\u2019re doing it because they love the country. They\u2019re doing it because they\u2019re shocked and saddened by what they\u2019re seeing happening here, and they don\u2019t think it\u2019s time to give up.<\/p>\n

Look how rare that is! Sarah Palin, the same thing. Look at what happens to people that do that. I mean, even Republicans go after \u2019em. They went after Reagan, too. It\u2019s the same thing, but Reagan was able to overcome it. It\u2019s a sad thing that there\u2019s only been one of him, but that\u2019s because they\u2019ve done everything they can to revise history from that era and make people think it was the exact opposite of what it was. But, folks, the whole point of this latest book has been to join people, \u2019cause I know there are a lot of you.<\/p>\n

This is the thing I know. A lot of you are fighting back, the Tea Party is. A lot of you do want to arrest this stuff and stop it and reverse it. A lot of you do want get rid of the current liberal power structure that\u2019s destroying the fabric of the country, cultural, politically, societally, economically, you name it. It\u2019s a wrecking ball that\u2019s been unleashed each and every day, and I know all of you in the Tea Party and most of you in this audience are trying to stop it.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/map>\n<\/p>\n

One of the things that frustrates you is apparently what frustrates me, and there\u2019s nobody fighting back that you vote for. Or very few. I had no reason to write another book just to write another book. Been there, done that, proved I can do that. This has a specific purpose, and I think it\u2019s a really worthwhile one. That\u2019s why I can\u2019t tell you how ecstatic I am at the reception this book is getting. My brother David went to the dentist today. His dentist is an adult, obviously.<\/p>\n

The dentist told him that he\u2019s reading the book, and he\u2019s fascinated by it. I can\u2019t tell you the number of adults who are telling me that they are finding this book enjoyable. It was written for people 10 to 13. Now, not at a specific 10 to 13 reading level. That was the target audience, but was also intended for parents and grandparents to read as well and share with their kids and grandkids and have it be a joint experience.<\/p>\n

The grandparents know the truth of the country, know the truth of the Pilgrims read the book and have their kids read it and reinforce what they\u2019re reading and say, “Yes, Mr. Limbaugh\u2019s telling the truth here,” I mean, that\u2019s been the whole point of this, and now I\u2019m getting… You wouldn\u2019t believe the pictures that we\u2019re getting that people sending into the TwoIfByTea.com website<\/a>, the little yellow mailbox there.<\/p>\n

Five-year-olds and seven-year-olds are at bookstores standing there holding books up and reading them and big smiles on their faces. It makes it all seem worthwhile. Here, we\u2019re getting mail pouring in. Let me give you an example. “Hi, Rush. I have to tell you about my experience this evening buying your book at the Barnes & Noble store in Annapolis, Maryland. Normally this store goes out of its way to bury conservative-leaning books in the back of the store.<\/p>\n

“So you have to ask for them, and when you do, you frequently get snooty looks. So I couldn\u2019t believe it when I found your book tonight not more than 10 feet from the front door. I nearly tripped over your display stand. Even more exciting, it was almost empty. There were only five books left in it. Now, bear in mind, conservatives and businesses are fed up and leaving our used-to-be-free state of Maryland in droves since our Governor O\u2019Malley, an Obama wannabe, has made it the bluest state in the country.<\/p>\n

“Therefore, seeing Rush Revere right up front in this liberal-leaning bookstore was encouraging.” Amen! “But here,” she says… The writer of this e-mail\u2019s a woman. Her name is Sue Ann. “Here\u2019s where it gets really interesting. At the checkout counter I asked the young saleswoman, who\u2019s barely 20, how your book was selling, and she broke into a huge grin and energetically said, ‘Really, really well.<\/p>\n

“‘I\u2019ve had lots of people coming in to reserve it,\u2019 and I thought to myself, ‘Wow. What a truly great evening in Maryland for a change. I not only run into a conservative, but a young one at that, in a leftist-leaning bookstore to boot.\u2019 Well, sure enough, an older male salesclerk immediately planted himself right next to her, interrupting with, ‘You better keep your mouth shut,\u2019 and I thought, ‘Uh-oh, she\u2019s in trouble.\u2019<\/p>\n

“But I was just tickled to death when she barely acknowledged his presence and she just kept on smiling and talking to me, and neither of us missed a beat — and to my further amusement, the obviously liberal slowly slithered away to wait on another customer as I continued telling her it was great to hear the book was selling so well, \u2019cause it sounds like it\u2019ll help kids and adults learn the real truth about our history.”<\/p>\n

Amen! This is the kind of stuff that we aimed for. This was the purpose, instead of all the lies that they\u2019re being taught in our schools. “She then said, ‘Yeah, I think it will help, and I know I actually hated learning history in school \u2019til my teacher made it into a story like Rush has done here. I really enjoyed it,\u2019 and as I was leaving, I said, ‘Well, do yourself a favor and get Rush\u2019s book, because I\u2019ve heard him say he\u2019s getting letters from children who say they don\u2019t like history either.<\/p>\n

“‘But they\u2019re totally enjoying the book,\u2019 and she said, ‘I will. Hope you have a great evening,\u2019 and I said, ‘Thank you.\u2019 As I passed by her coworker on the way out, flashed him a great big smile. Sue Ann from Annapolis, Maryland.” That\u2019s a sample of what\u2019s pouring in here. I had to get this off my chest because I\u2019m just continually amazed at how you got all these conservatives, and they don\u2019t seem to think there\u2019s anything worthwhile fighting back for. I don\u2019t get it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
