I said, &#8220;Okay, I\u2019m gonna listen to this,&#8221; \u2019cause I had made mention of it yesterday.  It\u2019s not being mentioned anywhere and it means something!  He\u2019s at 37%!  It means something.  There\u2019s a reason for it. And it\u2019s an AP poll.  The same poll that Wolf Blitzer couldn\u2019t get enough of when Bush was at 36% in 2006. <\/p>\n<p>So I\u2019m watching them discuss it.  Not gonna mention any names.  It\u2019s not the point.  Not picking fights with anybody.  I\u2019m just telling you.  So whoever was talking about this, the guest, member of the commentariat, &#8220;Well, it\u2019s probably not that low, really. It\u2019s probably an outlier poll, but it is low.  I mean, it is down a little.&#8221;  But then, this person said, &#8220;But this is not to say that the Republicans are not botching what they\u2019re doing.&#8221;  I sat up and I said, &#8220;What?&#8221;  Kathryn was sitting next to me.  I actually shouted the F-word at the TV.  I said, &#8220;Shut&#8230; up.&#8221;  And I don\u2019t do that anymore, folks.  I did that 25 years ago. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_82260\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaAPPollPIX.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>I said, &#8220;You\u2019re doing a story or you\u2019re doing a mention on Obama\u2019s approval plunging to 37.&#8221;  &#8220;Well, it\u2019s probably not that low, it\u2019s a little bit,&#8221; and then you gotta rip the Republicans, you gotta rip Cruz, you gotta rip Lee. You gotta throw in, &#8220;It\u2019s not that the Republicans are doing anything right here.&#8221;  You just had to get the establishment version of the Tea Party is dangerously off the rails here.  I don\u2019t know.  It just made me mad.  I don\u2019t know what else I\u2019m trying to say.  In simple terms, it just made me mad.  They don\u2019t understand.  Even the people inside the Beltway, ostensibly on our side, don\u2019t understand what\u2019s going on in the country. <\/p>\n<p>There are clear majorities of people that don\u2019t want anything to do with Obamacare.  They don\u2019t like what\u2019s happening at HealthCare.gov. They don\u2019t like what they\u2019re learning. They don\u2019t like what they\u2019re seeing about it. They don\u2019t like the experience.  It doesn\u2019t work.  It\u2019s an invasion of privacy.  Hardly anybody in great numbers are signing up for it.  It\u2019s an absolute debacle and the people in the country are hungering for somebody to represent them and do something about it, rather than say, &#8220;Well, it\u2019s the law of the land.&#8221;  This is real life that we\u2019re talking about here with real hard results on people.  If this thing gets fully implemented out there and people then start to be destroyed by this, they\u2019re not going to just blame Obama. <\/p>\n<p>At some point all of Washington is going to be lumped into the people responsible for this, because it has been obvious for the last month that there is a clear effort being undertaken to do something about this, and it\u2019s also obvious that there is not a whole lot of help coming for the people who are trying to do something about this.  And yet massive majorities of people want something done about Obamacare.  It\u2019s going to destroy things.  It\u2019s gonna destroy people\u2019s futures.  Not everybody, of course, nothing ever destroys everybody.  There will be people who benefit from it, and that\u2019s gonna make people dissatisfied as well. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: So last night I\u2019m watching Fox and the subject of Obama\u2019s approval rating came up, the fact that it had plunged to 37%.
