I want to tell you how damn proud of you I am, because you made this happen. The Republican leadership would have accepted anything Boehner put forth, because they are operating out of fear.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Whenever you do anything out of fear, how does it turn out? Doing anything from the perspective of fear is disastrous, or potentially so. That has been the position of the Republican leadership and the inside the Beltway so-called conservative media.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Jim Jordan opposes Boehner\u2019s 3.0. He\u2019s not wavering. He gets it. He\u2019s standing firm on this. So he\u2019s become a bigger target of the Republican leadership than Harry Reid, Pelosi and Obama. That\u2019s the way it works.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A bunch of Tea Party people who can\u2019t be bought are now being tweeted. Tweeting them is going to pressure them. Is that not hilarious? They\u2019re going to tweet harass \u2019em.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Members of Congress in both parties who think they\u2019re in safe districts where their reelection is guaranteed are possibly going to find out that they\u2019re not if they take action such as has been threatened against Jim Jordan.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Winners do not compromise. Winners do not compromise with themselves. The winners who do compromise are winners who still don\u2019t believe in themselves as winners, who still think of themselves as losers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Obama has taken our country to the brink. The gross domestic product, the growth numbers today, my friends, are unacceptable. It is a shame and it is an embarrassment.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;On what basis is Barack Obama viewed as a leader? On what basis is Barack Obama viewed as even a winner? He and his party were shellacked in the November elections.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s flat-out amazing this show is making any sense today.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I am your host, El Rushbo, the hardest working man in the &#8216;know\u2019 business.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don\u2019t believe the news reports that say Obama\u2019s losing sleep. I don\u2019t believe that. I don\u2019t believe his hair\u2019s getting gray. I think they\u2019re putting flour in it every day to make it look like it\u2019s getting grayer or whatever the makeup trick is.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The ChiCom economy is growing at 94 percent. We\u2019re being outperformed by a communist country. There\u2019s no excuse for this.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We do not have to compromise with the people who are destroying this country who will not put forth their own ideas &#8212; and the reason they won\u2019t put forth their own ideas is because were they to do so, the country would automatically totally reject every one of them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You want to talk about craven villains? Look no further than the Oval Office.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The views expressed by the host on this program make more sense than anything anybody else happens to be saying out there. And the reason is the views expressed by the host on this show are rooted in a daily unstoppable, relentless pursuit of the truth.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Democrats aren\u2019t going to sign on to a Balanced Budget Amendment, because it\u2019s like asking Colonel Sanders to stop killing chickens. It isn\u2019t going to happen.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are living in a manmade disaster, personally made by Barack Obama.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There\u2019s nothing &#8216;smart\u2019 about this administration, and there\u2019s nothing &#8216;balanced\u2019 about it. The fact that we let them get away with owning the notion that they\u2019re smart and they have balance in what they\u2019re doing is absurd! They are the most leftist, destructive administration this country has had in the modern era. Maybe ever!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Democrats and their cohorts and the Drive-Bys have collectively ratcheted up this divisive, uncivil, reactionary language to trash the Tea Party &#8212; and, by extension, conservatives.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We\u2019re not terrorists! We\u2019re not killing people. We are Americans who disagree with you! We\u2019re Americans who disagree with statism. We are Americans who disagree with socialism, communism and liberalism. We\u2019re not holding anybody hostage. We are the hostages! We are paying the ransom all the time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Brevity is the soul of wit.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our country has been kidnapped, and you\u2019re asking a ransom from us in the form of higher taxes and less liberty and less freedom each and every day &#8212; and you dare to write pieces calling us terrorists!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A &#8216;severely shrunken federal government\u2019 is a pipe dream! We are trying right now to stop the inexorable growth of this monster that is strangling and squandering every asset in this country.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The liberals do not own the wealth of this country. It\u2019s not theirs to distribute and redistribute.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We want to hold onto some of our money. For that we\u2019re called terrorists. We oppose tax increases because we know that tax increases are not going to fix what\u2019s wrong with the country.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Do you know the debt ceiling has already been raised three times under Obama? You could be excused for not knowing that, since the news media has never reported it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Obama\u2019s out there now saying that the recession was far worse than they had realized. The point of going back to 2007 is to cement the whole notion that Bush did it, to cement the whole notion that this is Bush\u2019s problem. But doesn\u2019t all of this mean that the economists have been incredibly wrong for four years in a row now?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Everything we heard from 2007 until today was a lie. It\u2019s been revised down today. It was much worse, and it coincides with the Democrats taking office.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You know that\u2019s what Democrat presidents do. They make their hair look grayer to make them look like they\u2019re working hard, not getting any sleep, getting older and more mature. Still the crisis has gone too far if The One is losing sleep over it. We can\u2019t have that. We can\u2019t have our esteemed Dear Leader losing sleep!&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;I want to say something to you conservatives out there.
