RUSH: Let\u2019s now head to these sound bites. This is Sunday morning. We have a montage of Obama advisers Robert Gibbs and David Axelrod talking about Romney\u2019s performance at the first presidential debate.<\/a><\/p>\n

GIBBS: I\u2019m not gonna take away from Mitt\u2019s masterful theatrical performance. He did a superb acting job. He did everything but learn tap dance.<\/p>\n

GIBBS: Governor Romney had a masterful theatrical performance this past week. Again, it was a masterful — masterful performance by Governor Romney.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

AXELROD: Governor Romney showed up to deliver a performance, and he delivered a very good performance.<\/p>\n

AXELROD: Governor Romney went to give a performance. He gave a good performance.<\/p>\n

AXELROD: George Burns said, all you need to succeed in show business is sincerity — and if you can fake that, you got it made. And that\u2019s essentially what Governor Romney\u2019s been about this whole week.<\/p>\n

RUSH: How many things have these guys thrown at the wall hoping something sticks? And this is just the latest. “Ah, it was a performance. He didn\u2019t mean any of it. Once you fake sincerity, then the rest is easy.” They\u2019re floundering. Their side is floundering. These people on the left… There are stories of these professors at Harvard and so forth. Folks, they don\u2019t know what to do. They\u2019re very worried. It\u2019s like I told you last week: They believe in this concoction of Obama as the most brilliant human being ever conceived.<\/p>\n

They believe this stuff!<\/p>\n

They believe it.<\/p>\n

They believe all the stories they have made up about us. They think Romney is the biggest empty suit, rich guy, cheat. All these caricatures they create, they end up believing. But particularly the ones about Obama. “So smart. He\u2019s gonna lower the sea levels!” All of that crap from the 2008 campaign, they believe it. I know you probably think I\u2019m wrong about this. Don\u2019t doubt me.<\/p>\n

They believe it. And they\u2019re floored. They cannot explain what happened. They can\u2019t. So now Kerry is at fault, or Romney had a great performance and Obama decided to carry that forward last night in LA at his campaign event, talking to a bunch of Hollywood people that are supposedly very worried, too. He had to go out there to reassure them: Don\u2019t worry, everything\u2019s okay!<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what he told them…<\/p>\n

OBAMA: Everybody here is, eh, incredible professionals. They\u2019re such great friends and they just perform flawlessly night after night. I can\u2019t always say the same.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Whoa! He just admits to these guys that he can\u2019t do it every day. No, he\u2019s saying he\u2019s not all performance. He can\u2019t do it. There are any number of ways of interpreting this. But to go out there and tell these guys, “Look, everything is okay. I just can\u2019t do it every day”? What, is he acting every day and he goofed up at the debate? Every day is an act with the debates the real Obama, and, uh-oh?<\/p>\n

That\u2019s what a lot of them are afraid of.<\/p>\n

Except these idiots in Hollywood have never thought he was acting.<\/p>\n

They thought what they got and what they made up in their own minds about him was the real deal.<\/p>\n

Everybody on his team\u2019s discombobulated.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t doubt me.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Okay, so the narrative is that Romney turned in a great “performance,” right? He was acting. But the New York Times has a piece in which they say that it was Obama who, quote, “did not say his lines right.”<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: There are two themes now as we head into the Ryan-Biden debate and the next Obama-Romney debate, particularly the Obama-Romney debate. The two themes are that Romney lied and he just turned in a much greater performance. “Whoa, what a great performance!” That was all over television yesterday. That\u2019s the latest theme. In fact, the New York Times today is carrying the theme. They say that the Obama aides were appalled that Obama “didn\u2019t say his lines right” in the debate.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s a quote.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“It turned out the former was the one who showed up in Denver. He kept looking down and was not using the lines they had practiced assailing Mitt Romney, who kept the president on the defensive and presented a forceful case against his re-election.” He “was not using the lines they had practiced.” You don\u2019t need to practice lines. There were all kinds of… I know a few people in the Romney camp. They, at least I was told, expressly decided: No zingers, no one-liners, none of that.<\/p>\n

This was gonna be a debate of substance.<\/p>\n

And that\u2019s what it was. So now they\u2019re saying that Romney turned in a great, great performance — and that he lied and that Barack Obama screwed up by not calling him on any of the lies because Obama didn\u2019t say his lines right. Now, say his lines right? That\u2019s how you would assess an actor\u2019s performance. “Advisers had seen two presidents during practice debates, one who had been listless and passive two nights before and another energetic and aggressive the next night.<\/p>\n

“It turned out the former [the passive] was the one who showed up in Denver. He kept looking down and was not using the lines they had practiced assailing Mitt Romney, who kept the president on the defensive and presented a forceful case against his re-election.” Well, who\u2019s the actor? Let\u2019s continue now with the sound bites. CBS reporters. They\u2019re not buying the spin that Obama lost because Romney lied.<\/p>\n

Face the Nation yesterday morning, Bob Schieffer said to Axelrod (paraphrased), “What happened? What happened at the debate? We set the table for you. We gave you the 47%.<\/a> We pretty much gave you everything you wanted. We ripped Romney here and there based on everything you told us to do, and then Obama didn\u2019t do anything with it! What the hell happened, David?”<\/p>\n

AXELROD: Governor Romney showed up to deliver a performance, and he delivered a very good performance. It was completed un-rooted in fact, it was completely un-rooted in the positions he\u2019s taken before, and he spent 90 minutes trying to undo two years of, uh, campaigning on that stage. But he did it very well.<\/p>\n

SCHIEFFER: Wuh…? Are you saying that Governor Romney lied or was dishonest?<\/p>\n

AXELROD: Well, yeah. I think he was dishonest, absolutely. I would —<\/p>\n

SCHIEFFER: Would you go so far as to say he lied?<\/p>\n

AXELROD: Well, I\u2019m not… I — I — I\u2019m saying that he was dishonest in his, uhh, answers. You can characterize that any way you want.<\/p>\n

RUSH: These guys can\u2019t take it.<\/p>\n

They just can\u2019t take it that their little messiah got his ass whooped.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

They cannot take it. Folks, they don\u2019t know how to process this. So now they\u2019re saying… In this bite, you know what Axelrod\u2019s saying? “You know, Romney… That wasn\u2019t Mitt Romney! That wasn\u2019t the Romney we know. That wasn\u2019t the Romney who\u2019s been campaigning. He lied! Why, he had us so confused! Poor Barack, he didn\u2019t know who he was dealing with! It looked like Mitt Romney over there, but he was saying so many things that weren\u2019t right.<\/p>\n

“Poor Barack, he was flummoxed. He was almost paralyzed. He had no idea. He didn\u2019t recognize the guy who showed up because this guy was telling so many lies.” Of course, Romney didn\u2019t tell one lie. There wasn\u2019t one lie that Romney told. He didn\u2019t make anything up. It was that Obama instinctively knew his lies wouldn\u2019t work. If you want to know what really happened, I think that\u2019s it. I think Obama instinctively knew it. Here\u2019s Romney. He\u2019s forceful and accurate, particularly in the way Romney described Obama\u2019s failures. Particularly in that way.<\/p>\n

He laid out every mistake Obama has made economically.<\/p>\n

So whatever “lines” they had, Obama knew he would look and sound foolish if he used them. So he tried to carry the day by acting aloof and presidential and above it all by adopting an attitude of, “I don\u2019t even need to be here. This is so beneath me. What am I doing here? I\u2019m so bored. Who is this guy? I don\u2019t even know who he is. Why am I here?” And it looked much, much worse than that. We continue now with Face the Nation, Norah O\u2019Donnell and Axelrod.<\/p>\n

Norah O\u2019Donnell, by the way, is as upset as she can be. She\u2019s asking Axelrod here why Obama didn\u2019t call Romney on all of his lies.<\/p>\n

O\u2019DONNELL: So, when you say that he was dishonest, and you went through those series of things where you think that Mitt Romney was dishonest, why didn\u2019t the president make that point in the debate?<\/p>\n

AXELROD: I think he was a little taken aback at the, uh — at the, uh, uh — the brazenness with which Governor Romney walked away from so many, uh, of the positions on which he\u2019s run, walked away from his record, and I — I — I… You know, that\u2019s something we\u2019re gonna have to make an adjustment for, uh, in these subsequent debates. (mumbles)<\/line><\/p>\n

O\u2019DONNELL: So you admit you were surprised by that, that the president was surprised by that.<\/p>\n

AXELROD: Anybody —<\/p>\n

O\u2019DONNELL: So what would he do differently? Do you think he —<\/p>\n

AXELROD: Anybody would be! I mean, it takes a certain… As President Clinton would say: It takes a certain brass to do what Governor Romney did there.<\/p>\n

RUSH: How hard is it? If you really think somebody\u2019s lying, how hard is it to deal with it? Look, this is Barack Obama! This is the most brilliant, the most qualified man ever! His light is so bright, we can barely look at him for very long before being blinded. And he\u2019s thrown off his game by a pathological liar? Why not call the pathological liar on it? Why not say (Obama impression), “Are you Mitt Romney?<\/p>\n

“You don\u2019t sound like him. I — I don\u2019t recognize a thing you\u2019re saying. Why, just last week you said X and here tonight you said Y. I don\u2019t know who you are.” Why couldn\u2019t he have said that? If that\u2019s true, that woulda been a great way to deal with Romney\u2019s lies. He coulda called Romney a liar without calling him a liar. Say, “Wait a minute! I don\u2019t believe what I\u2019m hearing. Just last week, you said X. Could you show me your birth certificate? Are you really Mitt Romney?”<\/p>\n

What a great line that would have been!<\/p>\n

Well, that\u2019s essentially what they\u2019re saying here, isn\u2019t it? That a totally different, lying-through-his-teeth Mitt Romney showed up and it affected our poor president. “Whew! He was blindsided, paralyzed. He didn\u2019t know how to deal with this.” Come on! The community organizer whose best friends are Louis Farrakhan, Jeremiah Wright, Bill Ayers, and Tony Rezko doesn\u2019t know how to deal with nefarious characters?<\/p>\n

Let me tell you something: What he doesn\u2019t know how to deal with here is somebody standing up to him. Do you realize that this may be the first time in at least four years that somebody looked at Barack Obama and said, “You know what? You\u2019re full of it, pal, and you\u2019re ruining this country.” I don\u2019t think Obama\u2019s used to being opposed or stood up to.<\/p>\n

And if he had these magical lines at his disposal, he either forgot them or he realized that they would sound really bad if he used them. But I think it\u2019s more than that. I don\u2019t think they know what hit \u2019em. I think they live in an alternate universe. They never face opposition, media or anywhere else. The road, speaking of which, is always paved for this guy wherever he goes.<\/p>\n

Sticking with Face the Nation, here is John Dickerson. He is the CBS political director, and he and Axelrod ultimately have this little exchange…<\/p>\n

<\/a>DICKERSON: When Senator Obama in 2008 said, “I\u2019m gonna cut the deficit in half; I\u2019m gonna close Gitmo,” a lot of people said those are unrealistic, but they didn\u2019t say he wasn\u2019t telling the truth.<\/p>\n

AXELROD: Well, uh…<\/p>\n

DICKERSON: There\u2019s a difference, isn\u2019t there?<\/p>\n

AXELROD: No, there — there is — there… The difference is that, ummm, closing Gitmo was an — involved an act of Congress<\/a>, and he wasn\u2019t able to get Congress, uhhh, to agree with him on that question.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, come on.<\/p>\n

AXELROD: This is basic math.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Come on!<\/p>\n

I told you before he was immaculated that he was not gonna close Gitmo. I told you that he was not gonna purposely lose Iraq. He was not gonna close Gitmo. What “math,” Mr. Axelrod? For two years the Republicans couldn\u2019t stop Barack Obama on anything! The Republicans did not have enough votes in the House to stop Obama doing anything: Illegal immigration. Amnesty. Health care, cap and trade. You name it!<\/p>\n

You could have done anything in those first two years!<\/p>\n

The Republicans couldn\u2019t stop you.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019d-a wanted to close Gitmo, you could have. And, by the way, when has Congress stopped you guys? If Congress doesn\u2019t do what you like, you do an end run around \u2019em with an executive order or some such thing. This is pathetic, folks. This is really pathetic. These people have now been exposed. It\u2019s just a question how many people are seeing it, but they\u2019re being exposed as the frauds that they are and that they have been since the get-go. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Lies. Romney lied. That\u2019s the narrative that\u2019s gone out from on high from David Axelrod. By the way, can I ask a simple question? And I\u2019ve thought this for a long time. Who is David Axelrod? This guy is a very sinister looking guy to me, and yet he\u2019s the president. Do you realize Axelrod is acting as president? While Obama campaigns, they\u2019re sending Axelrod out to all these TV shows to explain policy, to explain what Obama has done, what he\u2019s gonna do, what he\u2019s thinking of doing, what he meant to do at the debate, what happened at the debate. <\/p>\n

Well, this guy, why should anybody believe what comes out of his mouth? Who is he? Has Axelrod been vetted? Is he clean and pure as the wind-driven snow? Who is this guy? This guy\u2019s made millions of dollars going on TV and lying for a liar. They\u2019ve obviously decided it helps to put him out there, but he\u2019s the guy that\u2019s concocted this narrative that Romney had a great theatrical performance, oh, yeah, and that Romney lied. You remember three times Obama, in this debate, accused Romney of cutting taxes for the rich to the tune of $5 trillion. That\u2019s as much as Obama has spent, folks. There\u2019s nobody that has ever proposed a tax cut totaling $5 trillion<\/a>, over whatever time period you could think of. <\/p>\n

Obama said it once. Romney refuted it. Obama said it again. Romney refuted it. Obama tried it a third time. Romney refuted it. And Obama said, okay. He gave up. At that point he gave up on it. This is why, folks, I think Obama didn\u2019t use the lines they gave him, because up against Romney, his lines would have looked pathetically weak and would have appeared to be lies themselves, such as the $5 trillion tax cut. It was an out-and-out lie. Romney wasn\u2019t lying about that when he refuted it. It was Obama who was. Obama lying accusing Romney of it. Finally after three times — well, after two times, Romney calls him on it, and Obama backed away. He didn\u2019t use it again until the next day in Iowa, when there was no chance for anybody to refute it. A sure sign of a coward. <\/p>\n

You notice the next day Obama had no problem with his lines. The next day at his campaign rally, wherever it was, Denver, Iowa, I don\u2019t remember where it was; doesn\u2019t matter, he was out there on prompter again, and he was telling everybody all about these lies that Mitt Romney told the night before, but there wasn\u2019t any Romney to refute \u2019em. I\u2019m telling you the reason he didn\u2019t use whatever they had prepped him with is \u2019cause he knew that he would look ridiculous. ‘Cause he knew that what he was going to be saying wasn\u2019t true. And he wasn\u2019t gonna be able to bring it off, because there wasn\u2019t a media to prop him up, to back him up, and there wasn\u2019t a media to go to Romney and say, “What do you mean, you\u2019re gonna cut taxes $5 trillion?” He had no protection whatsoever. He was naked up there. He was all alone, and all alone Obama can\u2019t cut it. Don\u2019t doubt me. <\/p>\n

Now, another thing. I have maintained for a long time, \u2019cause I\u2019ve seen stories on it, that Obama literally doesn\u2019t like Romney. He doesn\u2019t like who Romney is. He doesn\u2019t like how Romney became Mitt Romney\/ Je doesn\u2019t like Romney\u2019s lifestyle. He doesn\u2019t like anything about Romney or his life. Romney and the way he\u2019s lived his life and the way he\u2019s succeeded, acquired his wealth, the things he\u2019s accomplished, Obama despises. Those are the kind of things Obama wants to prevent happening. He doesn\u2019t want people to have that kind of success anymore, unless it\u2019s ordained from the government. And in this New York Times story, I have it here in my formerly nicotine-stained fingers, in this same New York Times story where they talk about Obama refusing to use his lines, and they\u2019re puzzling over that, why didn\u2019t Obama use his lines? That same article says this: <\/p>\n

“Mr. Obama made clear to advisers that he was not happy about debating Mr. Romney, whom he views with disdain. It was something to endure, rather than an opportunity, aides said. It was something to endure, rather than an opportunity, aides said.”<\/p>\n

He didn\u2019t want to debate Romney. He doesn\u2019t like Romney. This was something that he had to endure. He wasn\u2019t looking forward to it at all. If you woulda asked Obama, “What was your favorite part of the debate?” He would have said, “When it ended.” ‘Cause he didn\u2019t want to be there in the first place. The New York Times says it right here: he views Romney with disdain. He doesn\u2019t like what Romney represents. I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s personal. He just doesn\u2019t like what Romney represents. Romney personifies, in Obama\u2019s world view, what\u2019s wrong with this country. He personifies everything about this country that Obama doesn\u2019t like. The wrong people are ending up with all the stuff. I\u2019m not kidding, folks. You may not want to believe it, but don\u2019t doubt me. I\u2019ve never been more confident of anything, and I\u2019m confident about a lot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
