RUSH: Now, ladies and gentlemen, let me find this. This is from TheHill.com. You are not going to like this. Let me just read it to you. It is by an Jonathan Easley (I always like to put the journalist\u2019s name to the story), and we\u2019re gonna assume that it\u2019s true. We don\u2019t know if it is or not. It\u2019s in the mainstream media. “On the heels of his decisive victory in the New Hampshire primary, Mitt Romney <\/a>took the attacks on his private sector record used by GOP rivals and turned them against President Obama. Romney\u2019s critics have accused him of destroying jobs in order to increase profits for his investment firm, Bain Capital, but speaking Wednesday on CBS, Romney said…” Are you sitting down? “Romney said that what he did” running Bain Capital was…<\/p>\n

Are you sitting down? If you\u2019re driving, you might want to pull off to the side of the road here. “[S]peaking Wednesday on CBS, Romney said that what he did [with Bain Capital] was no different…” Are you sitting down? Are you paying very close attention? Look at me. Do I have you here? According to TheHill.com and Jonathan Easley. Today on CBS, “Romney said that what he did [with Bain Capital] was no different…” Dadelut dadelut dadelut! from what Barack Obama did bailing out the auto industry. Thud! Kerplunk! You\u2019ve got to be kidding me. The next paragraph is a quote from Romney. Are you still sitting down?<\/line><\/p>\n

“In the general election I\u2019ll be pointing out that the president took the reins at General Motors and Chrysler — closed factories, closed dealerships, laid off thousands and thousands of workers — he did it to try to save the business.” So TheHill.com is reporting that Romney on CBS today said that what he did with Bain Capital is no different than what Obama did in taking over the auto companies. Obama had to lay people off; Obama had to streamline the place to make them profitable. So he\u2019s accepting the premise that Newt and Perry have put out there, apparently, that he has gone into these companies with a chainsaw — and now he is using Obama and what he did at General Motors and Chrysler as: Hey, the president did it! Now, General Motors and Chrysler are not profitable, and… (sigh)<\/p>\n

You just don\u2019t, if you are the leader in the race for the Republican nomination, come out and give tacit approval to the government takeover of General Motors and Chrysler and then compound that by saying: Hey, what I did is no different. I was trying to save the businesses. (interruption) I did leave the possibility that this is not accurate. Yes. It\u2019s in TheHill.com. I\u2019ve not seen it anywhere else. So, yes, I\u2019ve held out the possibility that this is inaccurate. For example, there was a story all day yesterday on Drudge that Newt is gonna go into South Carolina and meet with the former chairman of the Congressional Black Caucasians (Clyburn, James Clyburn, whose daughter is named Mignon Clyburn) and gonna have a joint press conference, appearance about the housing industry, that Newt is gonna meet with a Democrat — a ranking Democrat — member of the Congressional Black Caucasians. So I fired that off to some people I know who are dyed-in-the-wool, Newt-can\u2019t-do-anything-wrong supporters, and I said, “Can you explain this to me?” and a few hours later I had a reply. “Newt says this isn\u2019t true. He thinks Romney people are spreading this rumor. He\u2019s not got a meeting with Clyburn,” but it\u2019s in The State newspaper in South Carolina. So I share with you this Hill.com story with the proviso that it might not be true, but there it is. Okay.<\/line><\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Now, ladies and gentlemen, to be clear, Romney has said this before. He was on Bill O\u2019Reilly\u2019s show (that\u2019s on the Fox News Channel, eight o\u2019clock) on December the 20th and Romney said on that show, “‘The president has had one experience overseeing an enterprise, a couple of enterprises: General Motors and Chrysler. What did he do? He closed factories and he laid off people. He didn\u2019t do it personally but his people did. Why did he do it? Because he wanted to save the enterprise. He wants to make it profitable so it can survive.\u2019 Romney\u2019s comments came as scrutiny intensified over company\u2019s controlled by based upon the company.” That\u2019s back on December 20th.<\/p>\n

So he said this and his point is, obviously: Well, look, Obama\u2019s taxpayer dollars; I was using private sector dollars and so forth. The problem with it is (and the AP, by the way, is saying that the new line of defense “is part of an effort by Romney to shield himself against criticism that as a partner in the equity firm Bain Capital, that they slashed tens of thousands of jobs.” So I know what the thinking is. The thinking is, “Hey, look at me! I\u2019m no different than what Obama did, and you love Obama. You don\u2019t criticize Obama for doing this, so you can\u2019t criticize me for doing it. We did the same thing.” Uh, sorry. That… I\u2019m not a politician, and I don\u2019t measure things I say in a political context. I just don\u2019t. That\u2019s why I don\u2019t run for office: I couldn\u2019t do it what these people do.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t know how you say this. You\u2019ve just accepted the premise of the Newt and Perry criticism! You just accepted the premise with this comment to CBS today, and you\u2019re trying to blunt the criticism and saying, ‘Well, I\u2019m no different than Obama.” Mitt, would you take over General Motors and Chrysler if you\u2019re president, is that what you\u2019re saying? And, by the way, who the hell says that Obama\u2019s trying to save the companies? Who the hell says that Obama cares about profitability? That\u2019s not why Obama took over those companies! If anybody remembers, it was the Romneys that owned those companies that got the shaft: The bondholders.<\/p>\n

The bondholders — who had the first dibs on any bankruptcy or payoff or payback, anything that was made whole to General Motors — who have more say so than stocking were told by Obama (summarized): “Get the hell outta here! You\u2019re greedy! It\u2019s people like you that have caused this country to end up being so unfair. I\u2019m giving this company to the unions, and the reason that I\u2019m saving this company is to save pensions and health care benefits — and so I can market a stupid-ass car that nobody wants. I don\u2019t care about profit!” Folks, I do not understand what is so hard to understand about this. Why in the world would anybody seeking the Republican presidential nomination try to shield themselves from criticism by hiding behind Obama?<\/p>\n

Now, this is where I don\u2019t get it politically — and maybe the political experts have looked at this and said, “Okay, this is the best way to handle it,” and maybe the consultants are saying, “They love Obama. They\u2019ve not ripped Obama for taking over General Motors. They\u2019ve not ripped Obama for people lost their jobs they\u2019ve not ripped President Obama for people who lost their investments so they\u2019re not gonna rip you.” Really? Ooookay. Anyway, the idea that Barack Obama took over General Motors and Chrysler for any benevolent reasons or any capitalistic reasons is simply absurd, ladies and gentlemen. Obama wanted to save the UAW\u2019s pension fund! I\u2019ll tell you what else he wanted to do — and let us never forget this.<\/line><\/p>\n

Barack Obama thinks this country has been inherently unfair since its founding. Barack Obama thinks that this is a country that was assembled by and governed by the 1% white power brokers from the get-go, and they have had stewardship over this country and they have slanted everything. They have built everything, they have scheduled everything, they have arranged everything so that they are the primary financial beneficiaries of the United States of America. The 1%! Barack Obama believes that the Founders and the white majority of this country, since its founding, have been inherently unfair, have screwed everybody else, have taken everything for themselves — and then sent our own sons and daughters around the world to war to protect their own personal spoils.<\/p>\n

This is what he believes. So when General Motors is going belly up, he looks at General Motors as not something to save profitability. “Saving” General Motors and Chrysler is not saving General Motors and Chrysler. It\u2019s turning it over to the people who should rightly have it because they made it. It\u2019s Elizabeth Warren (summarized): “The workers should own General Motors. They\u2019re the ones that made it, the people who have been fired and laid off and subject to puny little union contracts.” No, Obama, it\u2019s exactly what he did at General Motors (summarized): “I\u2019m gonna see to it that the rightful owners — the 99%, the schlubs who have been raped and taking advantage of — that this their company now! I\u2019m giving it to \u2019em. I\u2019m bailing \u2019em out! I don\u2019t care about profitability,” and to run around and to compare your own private sector business to that? Lord help us!<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Romney gave what may be the best speech ever last night<\/a>, his acceptance speech, victory speech. It may have been the best speech he\u2019s ever given. Somebody needs to put a pair of comforting hands on the shoulders, and a gentle shake, and say, “Let me remind you who Obama is. Let me tell you who your opponent is and what he\u2019s doing and how you are nothing like him, and you don\u2019t want to be seen as anything like him.” <\/p>\n

But that\u2019s not my job, man. (interruption) Yeah, I know. Obama\u2019s not just a nice guy who\u2019s in over his head. Obama has a plan. Obama\u2019s plan is based on his inherent belief that this country was immorally and illegitimately founded by a very small minority of white Europeans who screwed everybody else since the founding to get all the money and all the goodies, and it\u2019s about time that the scales were made even. That\u2019s what\u2019s going on here, and that\u2019s why the president is lawless, and that\u2019s why there is no prosecution of the Black Panthers for voter intimidation because it\u2019s not possible for a minority to intimidate the white majority. It\u2019s not possible. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s always been the other way around. This is just payback. This is just “how does it feel?” time. That\u2019s how he sees himself, pure and simple. He doesn\u2019t see himself as a capitalist reformer saving a stupid automobile company. He sees an opportunity to take it away from the people who founded it and give it to the people he thinks have a moral right to it because somehow they have been taken advantage of, used, exploited, paid unfairly, what have you. <\/p>\n

RUSH: Duluth, Minnesota. Chad, great to have you on the EIB Network. Hello.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hey, thanks, Rush. Mega dittos from the liberal bastion of northern Minnesota.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Thank you very much.<\/p>\n

CALLER: You know, I was listening, and, you know, you told me to pull over when Romney made his little comment about Obama bailing out GM, same thing he was doing with Bain. You know, I started thinking about it, and, you know, to read in between the lines, I think he already thinks he has the nomination. I think he is kind of doing a preemptive strike on Obama so he can\u2019t use that same angle on him.<\/line><\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, let me see if I understand what you\u2019re saying. You think that Romney is doing a preemptive strike on Obama so he can\u2019t use that same angle on him?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yes.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Okay. Pretty much what I said. Maybe the political advisers are saying, “Mitt, go ahead and say you\u2019re no different than Obama, because the press is not ripping Obama. The press is praising Obama for every aspect of General Motors, taking it over, laying people off, making it profitable. So how can they criticize you for doing exactly what they praised Obama for?” And the answer is they are the media, that\u2019s how they can do it.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Makes sense.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Since when did we ever neuter the media? And what the hell is this playing defense stuff? Sorry, don\u2019t get me started here. Here\u2019s the bite. Chad, I only hope you\u2019re right. I\u2019ve got the bite now. The Hill got it right, TheHill.com. So here it is. Are you sitting down? CBS morning show, Charlie Rose interviewing Mitt Romney. Charlie Rose said, “Clearly, you know the outlines of what they want to say about your tenure at Bain Capital are clear. You were a destructive force. Will they be able to make that stick? Can you defend that, not only in the primaries but in the general election?” Can they make it stick that you\u2019re a destructive force?<\/p>\n

ROMNEY: Well, of course, they tried the same line here in New Hampshire and it fell extraordinarily flat. People here in the state know that in the work that I had, we started a number of businesses, invested in many others and that overall, created tens of thousands of jobs. So I\u2019m pretty proud of that record. By the way, in the general election, I\u00c2\u2019ll be pointing out that the president took the reins of General Motors and Chrysler, closed factories, closed dealerships, laid off thousands and thousands of workers. He did it to try and save the business. We also have had on occasion to do things that are tough to try and save a business. Like, I\u2019m going to go to Washington and cut it down to size. Washington is simply too big.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Okay, so said it there. Going to do exactly what Obama did, taking over General Motors and Chrysler. I\u2019m sure the thinking — there\u2019s no doubt — I think Chad here, Chadley from Duluth is exactly rightly. I think that they think they\u2019re inoculating themselves, this is how to blunt the criticism. Obama did it. See, it\u2019s based on the fact that the media loves Obama, will never criticize Obama for this, and to criticize Romney makes \u2019em hypocrites. That\u2019s obviously what the thinking here is.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: No, no, no, no, no. Just to clarify (sigh), my angst or my disquietedness here with Romney is not that he seeks to defend himself from getting rid of losing propositions at companies in order to save them. I know that\u2019s gotta happen. My concern here is that capitalism\u2019s under assault; Barack Obama\u2019s not a capitalist. Barack Obama and Romney did not do what they did for the same reasons — for the same objective, same things — and I just think if you\u2019re going to wade into this pool of defending the way you save a business, you\u2019re not government. I don\u2019t know. I just think there\u2019s a better way of doing this educationally, informatively than tying yourself to Obama. It\u2019s not that I think Romney\u2019s gonna take over car companies as president.<\/line><\/p>\n

That\u2019s not what my fear here is. I just think in order to win this, Obama is gonna have to be properly defined as what he is and what he intends for this country, and his takeover of General Motors was not benevolent. There was nothing about the takeover of General Motors that was oriented toward saving it. He doesn\u2019t care whether it runs at a profit. Government does not have to make a profit running anything. I give you the Volt. They don\u2019t care! The Volt ends up costing $250,000 per car when you account for all the subsidies and everything else. They don\u2019t care. They don\u2019t have to show a profit.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: I\u2019m still struggling with this here, folks. What Romney should have said is, “You call what I did layoffs? I was trying to save jobs! I was trying to save companies. Look at what Obama did with General Motors: Those jobs went overseas to the ChiComs. Look at how he\u2019s laying off 80,000 soldiers,” and this is the point: Is Obama trying to save the Pentagon by laying off 80,000 soldiers? No, ladies and gentlemen. Quite the opposite. There\u2019s nothing — there\u2019s not a single thing — that is common between we as conservatives and Barack Obama.<\/p>\n

Not a single thing. In the areas of economics and substance there\u2019s not a single thing. Now, the Democrats may talk about the fact, “Yeah, we need to streamline the Pentagon! Lean and mean. So we\u2019re gonna lay off 80,000 soldiers.” That\u2019s not why they\u2019re laying off 80,000 soldiers. They are cutting that money to spend it elsewhere to buy more votes. They\u2019re doing it to cut the military down to size because they think the US military has been the focus of evil in this world. The colonialism and imperialism are rooted in the US military. And it\u2019s not just Obama; that\u2019s the Democrats from as long as I\u2019ve been alive. Well, since JFK.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
