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

RUSH: New Milford, Connecticut. Bill, thank you for calling. It\u2019s nice to have you with us. Hello.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, Rush. It\u2019s an honor to speak with you.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Thank you, sir.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Thank you for what you do.<\/p>\n

RUSH: I appreciate you saying that.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hey, earlier you had talked about Obama blaming the Republicans on the debt crisis and on the money that\u2019s been spent. You know, since you\u2019re the head of the Republican Party, you might make the point to the rest of the Republicans to say it was during the time where the Democrats occupied both houses and the presidency when Obamacare was rammed through. And everybody knows that Obamacare is probably the single most expensive proposition that was put forth by the Democrats.<\/p>\n

RUSH: But that wasn\u2019t new spending. That reduced the deficit.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

CALLER: (laughing) Oh, yeah, right!<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, I mean, you laugh, but that\u2019s what he said.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, I know it\u2019s what he said. But, as I said, you had, sometime back, said, somebody has to come up with a message that speaks over the head of the media and over the head of the low-information voters.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n

CALLER: And a message that simply says, “This debt was put into place during the time where the Democrats held all three branches of government…” Well, not all three branches, but at least the House and the Senate and the presidency, it\u2019s very easy to pin it on them. And there\u2019s no refuting it. It\u2019s a very simple message that even a politician would understand.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, but… Look, I\u2019m not trying to be a downer, but we\u2019ve said that. The stimulus. You know, the Republicans for the first two years couldn\u2019t stop Obama on anything.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Exactly.<\/p>\n

RUSH: They didn\u2019t have the votes to stop him on anything, health care or anything else.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Exactly.<\/p>\n

RUSH: And the Republicans still get the blame for everybody.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, I know. But if somebody were to very clearly and succinctly simply say, “It ain\u2019t our fault because we weren\u2019t there, we weren\u2019t allowed to even to debate it on the floor.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, it\u2019s interesting. I have a piece here that addresses what you\u2019re talking about. It\u2019s a relatively long piece, and it came out January 8th. It\u2019s in a publication called the Irish Examiner, America\u2019s leading Irish newspaper. I didn\u2019t even know this thing existed \u2019til I saw this. And the headline: “Low-Information Voters Just Not Interested in Politics,” and what this piece is about is exactly what you\u2019re addressing. How do you reach \u2019em? How do conservatives reach people who don\u2019t care about politics except maybe once or twice every four years and for a very short period of time.<\/p>\n

When they are interested, how do you reach them? Let me give you two pull quotes. Here\u2019s the first: “All this year during the presidential campaign, the GOP allowed the Obama campaign to get away with that tax the rich mantra which is all the low-info voters heard.” There wasn\u2019t one Republican opposing what Obama was saying! By the way, The author here is Alicia Colon. She\u2019s right. It\u2019s one of the things that\u2019s bothered me throughout my career. When a conservative, a public conservative gets in trouble, other conservatives tend to throw that person overboard to get rid of the problem, rather than defend them.<\/p>\n

But not me.<\/p>\n

You know, when Clarence Thomas came under attack, I ginned up the defense. Same thing with Robert Bork. I was in Sacramento then, but I still did. And I don\u2019t care who it was. Ollie North, I don\u2019t care who it was. When they came under attack, I launched a defense of them. The left circles the wagons around their people, but we never have. We didn\u2019t have people defending Romney on the specific charges made against him. The Bush people didn\u2019t even defend themselves on some of the absurd accusations they faced! We just don\u2019t do it. We don\u2019t defend our own people. So the Obama campaign\u2019s out there with the tax-the-rich mantra.<\/line><\/p>\n

“All the Republicans care about is tax cuts for the rich!” Nobody speaks up against it. There\u2019s this little passage, and I would love to know what you think of this. I\u2019m not totally sure I know who the authorette is talking about here, but it says: “Conservatives simply have no one in the media that has any credibility with” low-information voters. “Conservatives simply have no one in the media that has any credibility with the ill-informed masses.” Now, I think that\u2019s true. I also think I know why it\u2019s true.<\/p>\n

Sadly, I don\u2019t have the time necessary to tell you right now.<\/p>\n

I must take an obscene profit time-out but I\u2019m gonna tell you why I think this is accurate.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Part of the answer goes back to the fact that, look at how many conservatives are demonized. Look at how many public conservatives are impugned. Their character, their credibility. That\u2019s what I meant earlier when I said <\/a>that Obama does not offer solutions to problems; Obama has nothing but enemies that he attempts to discredit and defeat and eliminate. And so when the assertion is made, “Conservatives simply have no one in the media that has any credibility with the ill-informed masses,” I think that\u2019s probably true, and I think I know the reasons why, and they are many and varied.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Back to this story from January 8th in the Irish Examiner by Alicia Colon. It\u2019s America\u2019s leading Irish newspaper. Never heard of it. Some great points raised in it nevertheless. This is a pull quote: “When it comes to who makes up the base of the party, the GOP establishment is as low-info as those who voted for Obama.”<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t know who this woman is, but she\u2019s dead-on right. Earlier in the program I made the point that the way to understand what\u2019s happening in the media, Inside-the-Beltway today, right now, at this moment in time, is to understand the objective. The objective is the elimination of any effective conservative opposition. And that goes for the Republican establishment, too. The Democrat Party naturally, and it\u2019s Obama\u2019s modus operandi. The Obama press conference today was all about the Republicans as the enemy, the Republicans as the bad guys, the Republicans would have to be stopped. There were no solutions proposed. There were no policies really proposed. Just, it\u2019s the Republicans\u2019 fault and they\u2019ve gotta be stopped. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Inside-the-Beltway Republicans, the moderate Republicans, the Republican establishment feel the same way about conservatives. I shared with you a couple stories, one in Salon.com, the other in the New Yorker, about the effort now to isolate the South because it is an area of heavy concentration of conservatives. By isolate it, mean demonize it. Just a bunch of old-fashioned hayseed sexists and racists and bigots who don\u2019t believe in gay rights, gay marriage. They believe in slavery. They don\u2019t like feminism. It\u2019s just throwbacks. Kooks. They\u2019ve gotta be ignored. Lincoln didn\u2019t finish the job, is the Salon premise. Lincoln didn\u2019t finish wiping out the South. In fact, that\u2019s one of the reasons why the movie Lincoln is getting such attention. It\u2019s to focus on Lincoln. What did he do? He took out the South. All this is happening. <\/p>\n

And then Ms. Colon says, “Conservatives simply have no one in the media that has any credibility with the ill-informed masses.” I sadly think that\u2019s true. There\u2019s a reason for it. It\u2019s not that conservatism doesn\u2019t fit. It\u2019s not that conservatism doesn\u2019t apply, because Reagan did have that credibility. It\u2019s one of the reasons why the revisionists in history have been so unkind to Reagan. Reagan was profoundly effective and they hated him for that simple reason. And they hate anybody else who is, by the way. So they have to destroy them. Now, the difference is, when they launch assaults, pick your favorite conservative anywhere, elected or in the media, the rest of the conservative establishment usually does not defend that person. They join in the criticism, or they express sorrow and concern and agree that something needs to be done about what that person said. <\/p>\n

The reason they do this is because they are trying to curry favor with the critics. They don\u2019t want to be criticized as — well, I don\u2019t want to use myself in this. It would probably be the easiest way to make the point, but I don\u2019t want to make it about me. If I use myself in this, I\u2019m gonna come off as whining. Let me use Sarah Palin, because what happened last night at the Golden Globes fits what I\u2019m gonna tell you here. Sarah Palin had to be destroyed. Sarah Palin was saving the McCain campaign. Sarah Palin had to be destroyed. <\/p>\n

Now, it\u2019s understandable the Democrats and the left, who will always tell us who they fear the most, would try to destroy Palin. I can\u2019t tell you how livid I was when I saw other Republicans joining the premise that she was either an idiot or stupid or uninformed or ill-prepared or unqualified or whatever. I can\u2019t tell you how livid that made me. The left never does that to its people. When their people come under attack, they circle the wagons around \u2019em and they promote \u2019em. They elevate them. Dan Rather, classic example, totally destroyed his career in the real world with that phony story on George Bush and the National Guard. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

What did they do? They gave him new awards. They had dinners in his honor, made sure everybody knew it. Because they knew that they were doing more than protecting Rather. They were protecting the news. They were protecting journalism. They were protecting liberalism. Conservatives are not so inclined. Let Palin come under assault, what did most of the conservative establishment do? Join in, \u2019cause they didn\u2019t want to be the next Palin. They figure if they join in they\u2019ll show themselves to be smarter than the average dumb conservative and therefore more appreciated by the critics on the left.<\/p>\n

I can\u2019t tell you how it bothered me. I told you I had some friends over at my house for dinner who said, “Rush, we gotta throw Palin away. The media\u2019s destroyed her.” <\/p>\n

And I said, “Well, you just gonna sit around and let the media destroy every one of our people that comes along that might be effective?” <\/p>\n

“Well, I don\u2019t know about that, Rush, we can\u2019t support Palin. The media\u2019s destroyed her. She\u2019s an idiot, I don\u2019t know, I don\u2019t care, that\u2019s what people think.” <\/p>\n

“Are you not interested in defending her? Are you not interested in standing up? You know she believes everything you believe. She\u2019s right down the middle of everything you believe. She\u2019d be the best friend you would ever have in elected office.”<\/p>\n

“I don\u2019t care, she\u2019s embarrassing.” <\/p>\n

I can\u2019t tell you, throughout my career when fellow conservatives come under assault, I defend \u2019em. Clarence Thomas, Ollie North, Robert Bork, you name it. It has become my number one objective to stop these people from being destroyed, if I can. But it doesn\u2019t happen much. It doesn\u2019t happen much in our blogosphere. It doesn\u2019t happen much in our publication media. It doesn\u2019t happen much in our broadcast media. It happens sometimes, but not nearly enough. The most often result is that people distance themselves from the conservative under attack, lest it descend and touch them. <\/p>\n

So when there\u2019s no defense of a baseless charge, especially when the allegations made about said conservative are dead wrong, stupid, unqualified, ill-equipped, racist, sexist, bigot they\u2019re not even willing to defend people on that. And so conservative people end up being destroyed, in the eyes of low-information voters, in the eyes of people paying scant attention. That\u2019s what they see, and they don\u2019t see any defense of it. In fact, they see other conservatives joining the conversation to one degree or another so that when Ms. Colon writes: “Conservatives simply have no one in the media that has any credibility with the ill-informed masses,” it makes total sense to me why. <\/p>\n

Anytime one pops up, the left seeks and destroys. There\u2019s no defense. I mean, even during the Bush administration, when they were trying to destroy Alberto Gonzales and any number of Bush appointees and nominees to the federal courts. The Supreme Court, it was the same thing. It\u2019s a very frustrating thing. And so the fact that conservatives don\u2019t have anybody with any credibility with the ill-informed masses is not because there aren\u2019t any. It\u2019s because the effort to demonize them and marginalize them is always so successful. And as that demonization and marginalization takes place, those people under assault find it impossible to broaden their base. <\/p>\n

Unlike me, they don\u2019t have a microphone to deal with it each day, or a TV show to deal with it each day. And if the people who do are not gonna engage in propping them up and speaking up for them and defending them, then they\u2019re gonna sit there and twist in the wind. And the left is going to successfully tarnish and feather everyone that comes along. Last night at the Golden Globes, Kathryn and I watched this HBO movie Game Change, the movie adaptation of the book. I told you we watched it and if it weren\u2019t for the fact that we were working, we\u2019da walked out. It was a cartoon. The book was not primarily about Palin, but the movie was all about Palin, and it mischaracterized her, it insulted her, it told things that were not true about her, from the standpoint of McCain campaign consultants. People like Steve Schmidt. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The critics of Sarah Palin in this movie were other Republicans. How embarrassed of her they were. How ashamed of her they were. How they couldn\u2019t even vote for McCain because they were so afraid that she might someday be president. Well, this show last night won three Golden Globes, and you know why? It won three Golden Globes so that everybody involved could walk up to the stage and once again bash Sarah Palin, knowing full well there wouldn\u2019t be anybody there to defend her, knowing full well there isn\u2019t gonna be anybody today defending her. And once the left targets anybody for destruction, there\u2019s nothing standing in their way. So this is the procedure, this is how it happens. But even last night, awarding this movie three Golden Globes, and Julianne Moore, the actress that played Palin, I don\u2019t know if she won a Golden Globe or not. <\/p>\n

Tina Fey, the last year that I was on the list of Barbara Walters\u2019 top Ten Most Fascinating Americans, the last time was two or three years ago, Tina Fey was in it for impersonating Sarah Palin, one of the Ten Most Fascinating People. She didn\u2019t make it as Tina Fey, she made it as Tina Fey as Sarah Palin. She ended up being one of Barbara Walters\u2019 Ten Most Fascinating because of her impersonation of Palin. Meanwhile, Palin is not in the list, and yet an impersonator is. So it\u2019s clear as a bell to me why it\u2019s tough to find a conservative in the media with any credibility with low-information voters. Every one of them has been taken out. There are other reasons why conservatives aren\u2019t defended. The conservative movement is in a constant battle for people in it who want to be seen as the leader, who want to be seen as the smartest person in the room, who want to be seen as the go-to person. <\/p>\n

And so somebody getting a lot of media attention is a threat, just in a high school jealousy sense, is a threat. So you take \u2019em out, you help take \u2019em out. It keeps the pathway cleared for you, whoever you are, if you want to be the go-to conservative for the media or the leader of the conservative movement or what have you, if you want to be perceived as such. So competition, lack of unity, fear of the left and a desire to be accepted by them all combine to result in conservative after conservative after conservative being tarred and feathered. And if they\u2019re Tea Party conservatives, it\u2019s even worse. They are universally panned, and they are never spoken up for by other Republicans. <\/p>\n

Okay, I\u2019m told Julianne Moore did win a Golden Globe. Well, even if she hadn\u2019t won, they woulda sent her up there to accept the award for one of the other three so that she could once again bash Palin, \u2019cause they never let up. All right, that\u2019s that. I wanted to get that out there because everybody calls here, and they have ever since I\u2019ve been doing the show, “Rush, what can Republicans do?” The first thing they can do is unite. The first thing they can do is unite and start defending each other and not letting this character assassination succeed every time the left tries it. <\/line><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
