RUSH: I want to go back, if you\u2019ll please indulge me. I predicted all of this, this that we\u2019ve talked about for the first hour-and-a-half of the program, the backfiring of this war on women<\/a>, the contraception issue, trying to make me Darth Vader.<\/p>\n

I want to take you back to what I said on this program on February 24th (not long ago) and on March 9th. On February 24th I said, quote: “So you may think that this contraception stuff, you may shudder and cower in fear, get all nervous, ‘Oh, gosh, can we stop talking about that? What about the economy?'” Yeah, I had people calling me on the phone, “Come on, Rush! Could you stop talking about this, Rush? We gotta get back the economy.” I\u2019d be wealthy if I had a dollar for every caller and every friend and every e-mail begging me to stop talking about this and get back to the economy. All of these people who had all the answers and knew everything said, “You\u2019ve got to stop talking about this, Rush!”<\/p>\n

I said on February 24th, “In the meantime we\u2019re losing our religious liberty over this. Obama is acting as a dictator on this. And at least seven states now have stood up and said, ‘To heck with this.\u2019 The issue isn\u2019t going away. And I\u2019ll tell you something else. The Democrats, they are gonna rue the day that they ever conceived this trick because it is going to backfire on \u2019em.” Remember? I said that on February 24th. I said, “[I]t is going to backfire on \u2019em,” and they\u2019re going to rue the day they tried this. They\u2019re gonna rue the day they created this war on women, and they\u2019re gonna rue the day that they brought Sandra Fluke on as a Democrat operative.<\/line><\/p>\n

They\u2019re gonna rue the day that they tried to turn this contraception issue into a Republicans-hate-women thing. It\u2019s going to backfire on them, and the backfire has started and it\u2019s in their own house organs: The New York Times and the Washington Post. I also have a See, I Told You So moment from March 9th. This is what I said then: “I want to try something here. It\u2019s very delicate, but I\u2019m going to give it a shot, and it\u2019s aimed at those of you who are lacking confidence over the possibility of beating Obama. … Now, there\u2019s been an event that happen last weekend, and it\u2019s had legs, and it\u2019s gone on throughout this entire week. It was an event which ended up being directed out of the White House when it was all said and done.<\/p>\n

“And it\u2019s safe to say that this event has backfired on them. Everything they hoped to accomplish this week, they\u2019ve not accomplished. They might have 25 years ago, but they haven\u2019t. … They thought this was the time. This was the gonna be that moment when they finally succeeded. [But] I\u2019m still here.” That\u2019s what I said back on March 9th, four days ago. That would have been last Friday, before the New York Times and the Washington Post polling data came out. Now, it\u2019s not over, and I\u2019m not telling you that they\u2019re gonna give this up. They have to have something that is a diversion from the economy, because that\u2019s what\u2019s killing them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
