I guess my call-in is about all the &#8221; longtime listeners&#8221; that keep calling you up and chewing you out \u2019cause they want you to do your thing their way. And I say, &#8220;Listen to you.&#8221; Like you say, politics is politics.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I\u2019ll have to vote for whoever gets the Republican nomination, whether I agree with them a hundred percent or not.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: That\u2019s what it boils down to, doesn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yeah!<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Because you\u2019re not gonna support Obama.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: No. He\u2019s ruining us, but people need to keep being told that.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"eZObject_58744\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushStopObamaismFlag.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: No matter what. Well, look, you know what? I appreciate your sensitivity. You\u2019re hearing all these, quote, unquote, &#8220;longtime listeners.&#8221; You probably think they\u2019re not long-time callers.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: (static)<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You probably think that they\u2019re just newbies who are trying to say they\u2019ve been longtime listeners to give themselves credibility, and then say, &#8220;You know, I normally agree with you, but on this, Rush, you\u2019re departing from where I thought you should be.&#8221; It\u2019s the nature of the game. Like you say, it is politics. I appreciate the call. This is Joe in Houston. Joe, you\u2019re next on the EIB Network. Hello, sir.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hi, Rush. It\u2019s a pleasure to talk to you. By the way, this is the first time I\u2019ve called.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: (sigh)<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Anyways, I\u2019m a conservative here in Houston, and I think that it might not be a bad thing if Obama did get reelected, and I\u2019m gonna give you my reason for that.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You don\u2019t have to. I\u2019m gonna tell you right now: NO! Why does this keep coming up? In 1992: NO! In 1988, &#8220;Rush, let the Democrats win. Let people find out how rotten they are and wipe \u2019em out forever.&#8221; In 1992, &#8220;Rush, let Clinton win. You know, let\u2019s expose these RINO Republicans like George Bush and let\u2019s make sure people understand what a bunch of worthless creeps the Democrats are! Let \u2019em ruin the country, Rush, and then they\u2019ll never get elected again.&#8221; And then in 2000, &#8220;Rush, come on! Let \u2019em elect Algore. We got a RINO, George W. Bush.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Well, let me tell you something. In 2008, the most destructive, leftist, socialist, Marxist American ever elected was elected. And as we sit here, today he\u2019s got a chance of being reelected. So the theory doesn\u2019t work. Now, I realize you\u2019re new to politics and I appreciate your calling. This comes up at least once a month here. I\u2019m doing my best to maintain my composure. But it will not work. You\u2019re ruining the country in the process of this. Every time a Democrat wins the presidency, we lose a little of this country, and we have lost a large part of it. If he\u2019s reelected, it doesn\u2019t matter how bad people think it got. Getting it put back together is gonna be a nightmare.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Ron in Burnham, Maine. Welcome to the EIB Network, sir. Great to have you here.
