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

RUSH: This Missouri clown situation is so out of hand and out of proportion, and I\u2019m gonna tell you what this is like, and I\u2019m not gonna pull any punches. This is no different than those countries reacting freakishly when there were cartoons of the prophet Mohammed. That is exactly what this is. It is as though President Obama is a messiah or is a god and this little thing that happened at the Missouri State Fair is a defamation, a denunciation, almost a religious sacrilege that took place. <\/p>\n

He\u2019s the president of the United States! They get made fun of! They get laughed at all the time! Fun is poked at \u2019em. I know this happens to be the first African-American one, but that should not insulate this president from standard, ordinary, everyday treatment, analysis, whatever. You know, you people on the left, who the hell do you think you are? You can\u2019t laugh. You can\u2019t take a joke. You can\u2019t take a punch. You can\u2019t take anything. One little thing that you don\u2019t like and this clown can never work, everybody involved is resigning, the state of Missouri might secede from the union. I mean, where\u2019s this gonna end? Well, I\u2019m joking about the state of Missouri seceding, bit I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if that was the next thing. <\/line><\/p>\n

If I were the president of the United States and this was happening in the country that I was president, I would put a stop to this. This is infantile. This is childish. This is worse than political correctness. It\u2019s almost as though the president of the United States is a religious leader. What took place at the Missouri State Fair was with a clown. I mean, it wasn\u2019t as though some serious journalist or political analyst went out there in an Obama mask. It wasn\u2019t like a Democrat doing a minstrel show, like good old Mel Carnahan did back in 1960 in Missouri. <\/p>\n

I mean, this is over the top. And the way people are caving on this in Missouri, instead of standing up and pointing out this for what it is. This wasn\u2019t a sacrilege; it\u2019s a joke, for crying out loud. And presidents are laughed at, and they\u2019re poked fun of. Ask George W. Bush. Ask Ronald Reagan. Ask George H. W. Bush. Ask Clinton, for crying out loud. <\/line>This burns me. This is outrageous. This is no different than what happened in all those countries that had the cartoons of the prophet and militant Muslims had a cow over it, went nuts. It\u2019s exactly what\u2019s happening here. What do we have, a president of the United States who is above all this? We have a president who\u2019s above criticism, above being mocked, above being laughed at? We have not just a president, we have an entire Democrat political party and the American left which thinks that they are so damn special that they cannot be mocked, they cannot be made fun of. <\/line><\/p>\n

There\u2019s a great quote by C. S. Lewis. You know who C. S. Lewis was. See, if I even quote C. S. Lewis I\u2019ll get myself in a little bit of trouble here. I\u2019d have to paraphrase. I don\u2019t have it right in front of me. C. S. Lewis said the devil can\u2019t stand being made fun of. The devil can\u2019t stand being mocked. He actually used the word “mocked.” You people on the left, I know you don\u2019t have the capacity for shame, but this is just absolutely — a clown now fearing for his life? Everybody involved in the fair quitting. The state of Missouri acting like it\u2019s profoundly embarrassed to be alive. A bunch of people with nothing better on their hands to do, running around trying to make a federal, big, gigantic issue out of this. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Who cares if it was offensive. To who? Haven\u2019t heard Obama complain about it. It\u2019s like I\u2019m saying, if I were the president of the United States, and I saw what this was doing, I\u2019d put a stop to it. The next time I was on TV, I\u2019d reference it. I\u2019d have a smile on my face, I\u2019d laugh about it, and I\u2019d have everybody calm down. A little leadership. But, no, this guy, I am convinced he\u2019s right in there with all this punishment. He\u2019s right in there with all these people being taken out because of this, because he\u2019s above being made fun of, he\u2019s above being mocked, he\u2019s above being criticized. I have no doubt about that. <\/p>\n

Now, folks, this dovetails into something else. There\u2019s something happening out there, I don\u2019t want to make too big a deal of this, but for four and a half years — well, let\u2019s give it four years. Six months people signed on and willing to see what happened. Yeah, the C. S. Lewis quote is “The devil, that proud spirit, cannot endure to be mocked.” That\u2019s C. S. Lewis. So don\u2019t get mad at me, stupid idiots in the media and on the left. Take it up with C. S. Lewis. Now, for four years, let\u2019s be generous, three and a half years. Practically every one of you in this audience have been asking, “When are people gonna wake up in this country and realize what is being made to happen? When are people gonna realize that what is happening is not simply a normal evolution of events, but rather the result of policy? When are people gonna wake up?” <\/p>\n

And I said not long ago, don\u2019t look for some major tsunami type, tumultuous political event. It isn\u2019t gonna be that. And then I told a little joke, no doubt irritated the left. I said, it\u2019s gonna be something along the lines of Obama dissing the latest CD from Justin Timberlake and ticking off the low-information crowd. Folks, there are series of things out there — I\u2019ll go into them in some detail. Yesterday, we had the audio of Kris Jenner, the Kardashian mother ripping into Obama for making fun of her daughter. Obama was holding up her daughter and her husband as examples of how not to be. <\/p>\n

So the president can dish it out, but he can\u2019t take it, and his defenders can\u2019t take it, and his party can\u2019t take it. You imagine being wound so damn tight that what happens at the State Fair in Missouri — this is all race. Everybody knows this is all race. You put Bill Clinton in the White House and put that clown with the Clinton mask on there, and it doesn\u2019t even make the news.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Jennifer in Downingtown, Pennsylvania. Great to have you on the EIB Network. You\u2019re up first today. Thank you for waiting.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Thank you, and thank you for having me on the air, Mr. Limbaugh. Just a quick point about our president and the rodeo clown. Shame on the rodeo clown for doing the event, and, you know, shame on everyone who\u2019s having so many problems with this, because as I\u2019m sure you remember, back when the campaign was in full swing for presidency, Sarah Palin was hung in effigy over, I think it was Halloween.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Let me tell you, there were assassination books and movies about George W. Bush. There have been Halloween clown costumes for Obama, Halloween costumes for Bush. This is common. I do remember. That\u2019s what I\u2019m saying, I agree with you.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yes.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Is there more? Did I interrupt you or is there more?<\/p>\n

CALLER: You know, I just wanted to point that out and, you know, I mean, did Mr. Obama —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, you started out by saying shame on the clown. Why?<\/p>\n

CALLER: That\u2019s a good question.<\/p>\n

RUSH: That\u2019s why I thought there might be more.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah. No.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You started out ripping the clown a new one, and then you started making excuses for the clown. So I thought there was additional wisdom forthcoming.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, I just think it\u2019s not a wise thing to do. However, I\u2019m just wondering if Mr. Obama had anything to say about Sarah Palin hanging in effigy.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

RUSH: Here\u2019s the thing about this. We\u2019ve got people out there that are — do we have a call about this? Somebody called and said it was like the KKK out there? Jennifer, thanks for the call. I appreciate it. Somebody that was at the state fair is describing it like a KKK rally. Now, come on, folks. This is getting so far out of hand. This, as I said at the top of the program, this clown has now been banned for life. We have put a man in jail for supposedly producing an anti-Muslim video that caused four deaths in Benghazi, that he had nothing to do with. In the Netherlands, we had the Mohammed cartoons, and all hell broke loose. These are the people out there preaching tolerance. We\u2019ve gotta be tolerant of gay marriage. We have to be tolerant of this, tolerant of that, tolerant of all this crap. <\/p>\n

They are the most intolerant, and they have absolutely no sense of humor. They cannot take a punch. They cannot take a joke. And not only can they not take it, they then embark on an effort to ruin the lives of people who do nothing more than harmlessly offend them. Full disclosure, I have not seen anything but a still picture of this clown. I\u2019ve not seen the act, I haven\u2019t watched any video, \u2019cause I\u2019m not big on website video. It\u2019s just me. I\u2019ve not watched it. Just seen the still. And it\u2019s clear to me what this is all about. This is all about race. And it\u2019s all about the fact that we\u2019re not gonna make fun of the first black president. If this were Bill Clinton in the White House and that clown had put on a Clinton mask, this would not have even been a story. <\/p>\n

Now we\u2019ve got these people running around, everybody scared to death, running around in literal fear if they don\u2019t get on the bandwagon that the clown needs to be destroyed the fair needs to be shut down, and Missouri needs to secede from the country. This is no different than this irrational reaction to the Mohammed cartoons. It\u2019s exactly what this is. This is just absurd. This is so over the top. It really bothers me, the whole scope of censorship and the First Amendment. The idea of people unable to laugh at themselves. And I\u2019ll tell you the real thing here. The president of the United States is sitting here watching this kind of thing rip the country apart, and he could shut it down, he could stop it. <\/p>\n

But this guy, Barack Obama, he can\u2019t laugh at himself, and that isn\u2019t gonna happen. He\u2019s above it all, folks, you don\u2019t dare. I think we\u2019re dealing with somebody literally spoiled rotten from the early days of their lives, and this is embarrassing. The whole event, the whole thing, reaction to it, the thing that happened. But this clown is a comedian, a freaking rodeo, they don\u2019t even do rodeos anymore except for jokes. It\u2019s a fair exercise. A clown, for crying out loud. This clown couldn\u2019t hold a candle to some of the stuff Bill Maher has said. And nobody makes a move on Bill Maher to shut him up and ruin him and get him thrown off the air and HBO canceled and all that. <\/p>\n

This clown has been banned for life. Think about that. A rodeo clown. A rodeo clown has been banned for life. The only people worse than this clown are people that smoke. Meanwhile, A-Rod continues to play for the New York Yankees. Well, I just thought I\u2019d throw that in there. I won\u2019t be surprised if this clown gets thrown in jail like the filmmaker was, Nakoula Nakoula, who made the anti-Mohammed video. Obama tried to blame that for the Benghazi attack. Why didn\u2019t he just drone the state fair instead of going through all this? Obama could just launch a drone and have the drone attack the state fair and show Missouri what\u2019s what. This is what happens when you dare criticize or laugh at our Dear Leader. <\/line><\/p>\n

So here\u2019s another job destroyed because of Obama, which we ought to be used to by now. If I were Obama, you know, I\u2019d be bigger than this. I would pardon the clown, and I would turn it around, and if you want to make it look like something silly and ridiculous and childish, Obama could do that, put this thing in its place, and humiliate everybody involved and be done with it and make it a positive event, instead of the way this is all happening. This is just outrageous to me. I think the president needs to do something for Oprah, too. It\u2019s all falling apart for Oprah. <\/p>\n

We need a bag summit at the White House. We need the store clerk brought to Martha\u2019s Vineyard from Switzerland, need Oprah taken up there, and the store clerk and Oprah and Obama have a bag summit in the backyard of this place he\u2019s renting. Isn\u2019t that how they\u2019ve solved problems like this in the past? I don\u2019t know, folks. I mean, this is hysteria. That\u2019s what this is. This is hysteria, because of this Missouri state fair thing, and it\u2019s the same kind of hysteria we get when somebody insults Mohammed. And I just thought, when did we become a country on the same level as that? At the end of the day this was harmless, and now they\u2019re talking, “Well, it promoted violence”? Oh, give me a break. It was a rodeo clown. Promoted violence. <\/p>\n

So we have here: “The president of the Missouri Rodeo Cowboy Association has resigned after getting flak about a State Fair event. … An attorney for rodeo announcer said that his resignation from the group is not an acknowledgment of wrongdoing on his part but rather a protest that the association has not banned the rodeo clown.” So the announcer is resigning in protest the clown hasn\u2019t been banned, and now the clown has been. <\/p>\n

What a bunch of gutless, cover-your-ass wonders we have here. Ficken is the announcer. Mark Ficken. His resignation from the rodeo group “comes as he tries to hold on to his job as superintendent of the Boonville School District. The school system announced Monday that it is hiring an investigator to look into whether Ficken was involved in any ‘inappropriate conduct\u2019 during Saturday\u2019s bull riding event at the Missouri State Fair in Sedalia.” Utter irrational hysteria here. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: And here\u2019s the piece de resistance. Missouri officials are now saying that before they take part in any future state fair, the Missouri Rodeo Cowboy Association must provide evidence to the director of the Missouri state fair that they have proof that all officials and subcontractors have successfully participated in sensitivity training. I kid you not. This is like the ChiComs and their reeducation camps, and I am not exaggerating.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: By the way, one more little tidbit on this rodeo clown thing out of the Missouri state fair. Did you hear the worst thing the rodeo clown called Obama? He called him a goober. I\u2019m not kidding. The rodeo clown — has this guy been identified yet, or is he still — okay. He has been outed. Doesn\u2019t matter. He\u2019s never gonna get another job as a clown or anything else. I\u2019m looking at the picture now, I think it\u2019s funny. I\u2019m sorry. I think it\u2019s hilarious. Just looking at that. See, I happen to like satire, parody, and caricature. I happen to be an expert at it. <\/p>\n

At any rate, he called him a goober. I did not know that goober was a racist word. You know what a goober is? It\u2019s a peanut, like Jimmy Carter. Goober, it\u2019s a certain kind of peanut. You know, there are different grades of peanuts. There are the kinds of peanuts that end up in a Planters can on your cocktail table, and then there are the rotgut peanuts that end up in peanut butter. And I think the kind of goobers that Jimmy Carter — he was a peanut farmer, and his peanuts went into peanut butter. That\u2019s what a goober is, for those of you in Rio Linda. <\/p>\n
