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

RUSH: Obama said to the New Republic he\u2019d get a lot more done without Fox News and Rush Limbaugh. The rest of the media\u2019s in the tank. Everybody else has fallen in line. There is no opposition other than Fox News and Limbaugh. The way it works, and what this all boils down to, the Republicans, I mean, everybody knows they want to get along with Democrats. Everybody knows they want to socialize. They want their lives to have meaning, but Limbaugh is the one standing in the way \u2019cause what happens? The Republicans are simply afraid that I\u2019m gonna criticize \u2019em if they do something that is cooperative with the Democrats. And so that\u2019s a problem. He started his first term the same way<\/a>. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

You know, the timing here is interesting. I think within the first week, maybe two, in 2009, Obama convened a meeting at the White House of the congressional leadership, House and Senate, Republican, Democrat. And he said to John Boehner and Eric Cantor, “You can\u2019t listen to Rush Limbaugh. That\u2019s not the way things get done.” And I remember, I talked to Boehner here in the EIB Southern Command offices some short weeks later, and he brought that up, and he said, “Why would he say that to us? We\u2019re sitting in there talking about legislative action coming down the pike in his first year, ‘Can\u2019t listen to Rush Limbaugh. You gotta stop listening to Limbaugh. That\u2019s not how things get done.'” <\/p>\n

I said, “You really don\u2019t know why? He was hoping one of you would agree with him, Mr. Speaker. He was hoping that one of you Republicans would go to the microphone after that meeting and agree with him, \u2019cause his whole purpose is to eliminate any opposition.” <\/p>\n

<\/a>“Ah, Rush, that\u2019s not what he\u2019s trying to do.” Boehner disagreed with me and said that I was misreading the situation. Here we are four years later, and it\u2019s the same thing. Different words, same thing. “The Republicans would be more willing to work with the Democrats,” meaning, the Republicans would be more willing to cave in. The Republicans would be more willing to compromise their principles. “The Republicans would be more willing to give me what I want if it weren\u2019t for Fox News and Rush Limbaugh.” ‘Cause I\u2019ve got everybody else in the tank. <\/p>\n

This is on This Week Needs David Brinkley from ABC yesterday. Martha Raddatz was a cohost and she\u2019s talking to Chris Hughes, who\u2019s the editor-in-chief and publisher of the New Republic. She said, “Chris, you had a pretty extraordinary interview there with President Obama. He pointed out something that he thought was a problem with the Republicans. He said in the interview that certain members of the media are hurting the Republican Party, too. He said if a Republican member of Congress is not punished on Fox or by Rush Limbaugh for working with a Democrat on a bill of common interest, then you\u2019ll see a lot of more of them doing it. I think Boehner genuinely wanted to get a deal done but it was hard to do so in part because his caucus is more conservative, probably, than most Republican leaders are.” <\/p>\n

By the way, Boehner is now saying — well, I don\u2019t want to put words in his mouth, but he\u2019s saying he wouldn\u2019ta done the fiscal cliff deal the way he did it if he had to do it again. Here\u2019s what Chris Hughes, the editor of the New Republic, the guy who did the interview with Obama, said in answer to the question.<\/p>\n

HUGHES: The president thinks that the American people are on his side when it comes to immigration, when it comes to gun control, when it comes to fiscal issues and he thinks the Republican Party is increasingly extreme. Another piece of the interview that I thought was really, really fascinating is we asked him about the new kind of politics, the Obama of 2008 and where that had gone, and mentioned two things that had been a real challenge. One was institutional reforms, specifically referencing the filibuster, and secondly, the media environment, the world in which we live where we only really listen to the people that we agree with.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

RUSH: Only listen to people we agree with, and the only people that are in my way are Limbaugh and Fox News. Get rid of them, and then I\u2019ve got a clean slate. Martha Raddatz then said, “Sarah Palin even said something this week. She did not specifically talk about Fox, but that we\u2019re preaching to the choir, is what she said.”<\/p>\n

HUGHES: There\u2019s a growing sense that there\u2019s a need for a media — for media outlets and media opportunities that are not necessarily centrist, but that have different perspectives and make it easy for us to hear people that we might disagree with and actually engage on the merits rather than just recycling old ideas.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Do you realize, ladies and gentlemen, that I kind of am in this position not because of anything I do, really, it\u2019s because the mainstream media has ceased doing what they are constitutionally charged with doing. Kirsten Powers, noted liberal commentator on Fox last week — I forget what the story was, but she was on with John Fund, and they were talking about the White House press corps, and she thought what Fund had said had been a little bit too easy on the media. Oh, it was on about Al Joker and all these people fawning over Obama, going gaga as though he\u2019s the Celebrity of the United States during the inaugural parade, just going gaga. She said it\u2019s embarrassing. The purpose of the media is to hold people in power accountable, and they\u2019re not doing this. They\u2019re swooning. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

And she went on to say, “I would never swoon. I couldn\u2019t do it.” She said it\u2019s embarrassing to watch what the media are doing. And she\u2019s exactly right. The only reason, folks, and I would love to take credit for this. I\u2019d love to say that I find myself here because of a brilliantly conceived and flawlessly executed strategy, but one of the reasons that Fox News and I stand out like sore thumbs here is because the rest of the media is gone. The rest of the media is in the tank. The rest of the media has long ago ceased doing their job. They\u2019re not reporting, they\u2019re not curious, they\u2019re not holding Obama accountable. They are on board. They are part of the agenda advancement team. <\/p>\n

So Obama says, “The only thing standing in my way is Limbaugh and Fox.” What do the media do? They go after me and Fox. They\u2019re not at all concerned about what\u2019s happening here in the slightest. Let\u2019s jump to sound bite five. Ben Shapiro, bright young conservative. He\u2019s running Breitbart News now. He\u2019s the editor at large at Breitbart.com. He was on Fox & Friends this morning with Steve Doocy reacting to this claim Obama made. Doocy said, “What do you think of the president\u2019s quote there, Fox News and Rush Limbaugh?”<\/p>\n

SHAPIRO: He has dictatorial tendencies. He talks about how the incentive structure needs to be changed. He\u2019s talking about silencing members of the media that he doesn\u2019t like, and he\u2019s done this before. This idea that Fox News is some sort of evil force in the media. He\u2019s gone after Rush Limbaugh. He\u2019s attempted to start secondary boycotts of Rush Limbaugh. This is what he does. He\u2019s a bully.<\/p>\n

RUSH: And he\u2019s gone after the NFL in the same way, and he\u2019s going after anybody he disagrees with the same way. That\u2019s Ben Shapiro, the editor at large at Breitbart.com. Obama has been part of the these secondary boycott attempts. There\u2019s no question about it. That\u2019s unprecedented for presidents. I mean, if Richard Nixon had endeavored to do 20% of what Obama\u2019s doing, the roof would blow.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: I want to build a little bit here on the president. He was quoted in this New Republic interview saying that Republicans want to get along with the Democrats in Washington. They want to be able to socialize. He said these things. They want to be able to socialize. They want to be able to participate in bipartisan legislation. They want their lives to have meaning. The Republicans want to feel like they\u2019re making a difference. The Republicans don\u2019t want to feel ostracized and so forth.<\/p>\n

They\u2019re just scared because the minute they do anything that makes it look like they\u2019re gonna agree with Democrats, Limbaugh starts bashing \u2019em. They\u2019re afraid of that. If you could just get Limbaugh to stop bashing \u2019em, they\u2019d be a lot more fulfilled in Washington. They\u2019d be a lot more socially acceptable. (I mean, these are not his words but they\u2019re close and it\u2019s what he said.) It\u2019s as though Obama really cares about the Republicans. You know, he really wants \u2019em to do well.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It\u2019s like this immigration. (Yes, we\u2019re gonna get to this, folks.) The Democrats, don\u2019t you know, are so eager to share some of their voters with the Republicans. That\u2019s why the Democrats are urging the Republicans, “Look, you guys, we love you, and we really want to go to parties with you, and we really want you to join us when it comes to legislation, and we want you guys to have meaningful lives here in Washington. We want you to be happy. That\u2019s why you\u2019re gonna have to relax some of your positions on immigration.<\/p>\n

“You\u2019re going to have to agree with us on amnesty and the border.” Because we all know, folks, that the Democrats want to share some of their voters with the Republicans. The Democrats, they don\u2019t want all the Hispanic voters. I mean, they\u2019re willing to share some. They know it\u2019s not fair if every Hispanic votes Democrat. So they want the Republicans to do the right thing. They want Republicans to join them when it comes to amnesty so that they get some Hispanic votes. You know, it\u2019s the same thing on abortion.<\/p>\n

The Democrats, they don\u2019t want all the women voters, particularly the Lena Dunham-type women, the 18 to 24ers. They want to share the women that are voting for them. If the Republicans would just relax their position on abortion, Roe v. Wade, then the Democrats would like them. They\u2019d be socially acceptable and be able to go to parties, and the Democrats are more than willing to share some of their voters. Isn\u2019t that right? Yeah. Well, isn\u2019t it? When the Democrats say that the Republicans are having trouble…<\/p>\n

By the way, the Republicans agree. Republicans are out there saying, “The reason we lost the election is Hispanics don\u2019t like us and the women don\u2019t like us. So we\u2019re gonna have to moderate our position here and we\u2019re gonna have to take positions that send the message that we don\u2019t dislike Hispanics.” And the Democrats are saying, “Yeah, you\u2019re gonna have to do that and you\u2019re gonna have to come out for amnesty and all kinds of things. Agree with us on this, and, if you do that, we\u2019ll give you some of our voters.”<\/p>\n

I guess there are some Republicans who really believe this.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I guess there are some Republicans who really believe that the Democrats are willing to giving up some of their voting advantage, because they\u2019re eager to do what the Democrats want on these issues. Here\u2019s Obama now talking about how he understands that the Republicans want to be able to socialize and have lives that have meaning. They want to be able to feel fulfillment at the end of the busy legislative day by participating in legislation, and Obama knows the only way to do that is if the Republicans change their opinions and agree with Democrats.<\/p>\n

Do that, and everything will be hunky-dory.<\/p>\n

As though he really cares about the Republicans. That would be the same guy, Barack Obama, who sat by while his campaign called Mitt Romney a felon and essentially a murderer. That\u2019s how much they like Republicans. Oh, yeah! The Democrats really respect and like the Republicans. That\u2019s why they smeared Robert Bork and Clarence Thomas. These are the same people that routinely accuse the Republicans of wanting to starve kids and the elderly and declare war on women.<\/p>\n

These are the same Democrats who accuse the Republicans of wanting to poison the air and the water, the same Democrats who accuse the Republicans of being racist. How many times a day does that happen? These are the guys that really care about our well-being. These are the people, from the president on down, these Democrats, who really want Republicans to be part of the mix. They really want Republicans to do the right thing on immigration.<\/p>\n

They\u2019ll even give \u2019em some of their voters!<\/p>\n

They want them to do the right thing on women\u2019s issues. These are the same people — with all this caring and compassion — who call Republicans racists, sexist, bigots, and homophobes. They called Romney a felon. They called Romney a liar. They said Romney didn\u2019t care about his dog. Romney wasn\u2019t paying enough taxes. “Romney\u2019s a rich guy; you can\u2019t trust him. He had all his money invested overseas!” They really like Republicans. The Republicans just don\u2019t understand it, and they\u2019re gonna have to compromise on all these issues.<\/p>\n

No, I\u2019m being a little bit facetious.<\/p>\n

The way I think, the way I\u2019m looking at it, is I look at Barack Obama as attempting to eliminate any viable opposition. I look at Obama trying to wipe out any opposition. See, I\u2019m sincere, and I\u2019ve mastered sincerity, and I\u2019m trustworthy. If sometimes you don\u2019t get the sarcasm, you might misunderstand, but my real point is: The Democrats are not interested in having the Republicans get any Hispanic votes. The Democrats are not interested in the Republicans getting any women votes. My point is, the Democrats know that if they can convince the Republicans to go along with them on amnesty that they are losing their base.<\/p>\n

They might pick up some Hispanic votes, but that\u2019s even doubtful. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
