I never do on these anniversary shows.&nbsp; She thought it would be interesting to go back and look at the number of different ways I have been characterized and portrayed in various places, by various people over &#8212; not all but some of these &#8212; 28 years.&nbsp;And, in that regard, we have one sound bite that\u2019s new in the sense we haven\u2019t played it in this&#8230; I don\u2019t think we\u2019ve played it ever in its entirety.&nbsp; It\u2019s from Mr. Buckley, William F. Buckley Jr.\u2019s introduction of me, my first appearance on Firing Line.&nbsp; But, you know, I actually feel blessed to have been able to do my lifelong dream.&nbsp; I mean, I wanted to be on the radio from age 8.&nbsp; And not only have I been blessed to be able to do it, but I truly have been blessed by having people like you as the audience.Because it\u2019s people like you that have made it all happen, made it possible.&nbsp; And I am aware of this daily.&nbsp; Even after 28 years &#8212; and I mentioned this in relation to something else, even last week or the week before.&nbsp; But I go home every day after this program, and I would say four out of five days I\u2019d go home troubled to one degree or another that it wasn\u2019t as good as it could have been.&nbsp; I go home sometimes feeling guilty that I had some really good stuff and didn\u2019t get to just because of the way things fell out in the day.And one of the things I have to constantly remind myself, is I know what I\u2019ve got here.&nbsp; I mean, I know everything I\u2019ve got as a result of the show prep that resulted in the show being put together here, but you don\u2019t.&nbsp; But I have so much faith and confidence in you that I think you do know.&nbsp; I think you are so intelligent and so aware and so informed, that if I don\u2019t get to something every day that you know I didn\u2019t get it, and you\u2019re disappointed or angry, thinking I didn\u2019t prioritize correctly or whatever.&nbsp;And that\u2019s because I\u2019ve often &#8212; I\u2019ve always &#8212; believed that you are among the smartest people in the country, and that\u2019s why I don\u2019t talk down to you or in any other way be arrogant.&nbsp; In fact, it\u2019s one of the greatest comforts in the world to realize and think that the people listening are smart, \u2019cause it means you\u2019re gonna get it.&nbsp; It means you\u2019re gonna understand.&nbsp; And I also have great faith that many of you are here every day, and so therefore you understand the context of each show because you heard the day before.And that\u2019s truly a blessing.&nbsp; I don\u2019t know what many other people who do this think of their audiences. I don\u2019t know how much they think about them. And this is not intended as a put-down. But, as far as I\u2019m concerned, you are it each and every day.&nbsp; You out there are what this is all about.&nbsp; And I do.&nbsp; I go home&#8230; When I say &#8220;troubled,&#8221; it\u2019s not devastatingly troubled \u2019cause there\u2019s always tomorrow to fix whatever might not have gone right or whatever I might not have done or gotten to.&nbsp; So it\u2019s always, ultimately, a positive.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>And I never assume that you\u2019re gonna be here every day.&nbsp; I think that\u2019s another reason I go home troubled.&nbsp; I go home worried that, &#8220;Oh, gosh, they\u2019re gonna think that they\u2019re missing it! I\u2019m not getting to certain things.&#8221;&nbsp; And this is not a Stick-to-the-Issues Crowd comment.&nbsp; This is just an acknowledgment that you are informed and aware. You know what I say\u2019s going on out there, and some of you have expectations or desires to hear what I think about it, and if I don\u2019t think I get to it every day, I just don\u2019t want to let anybody down.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I can always fix it the next day if necessary.&nbsp; So it\u2019s a roundabout way of saying &#8220;thank you&#8221; and acknowledging your primacy and your supreme relevance in all of this and what it is and what it has become.&nbsp; I thank you from the bottom of my heart each and every day, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart each and every night, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart each and every morning when I am sitting here getting ready for this.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_125648\" class=\"img_middle aligncenter\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/EIBPlaybook101-StickITMedia.jpg\" align=\"middle\"><\/p>\n<p>So, with that as the theme, things that have been said about me &#8212; humorous and otherwise &#8212; the way I\u2019ve been characterized over these recent years, past years, and we just have&#8230; It\u2019s just three things here.&nbsp; We\u2019re not gonna spend a whole lot of time here.&nbsp; The first is my mother.&nbsp; This was in the early 1990s.&nbsp; She was telling&#8230; I don\u2019t know where this was.&nbsp; She might have been on the air here.&nbsp; I might have been interviewing her.&nbsp; It might have been an interview somebody else did.<\/p>\n<p>My mother once welcomed the National Enquirer into our home and offered to answer any question they had based on the fact that we Limbaughs have nothing to hide. (chuckling) The Enquirer could not believe it.&nbsp; I couldn\u2019t believe it when I found out about it!&nbsp; I would go home to see my mom, and it wasn\u2019t to talk about me.&nbsp; There were 200, 300 books every weekday that people from all over the country had sent her that I had to sign.&nbsp; There wasn\u2019t any time to talk to her about how she was doing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_125659\" class=\"img_middle aligncenter\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Rush-Mom-Bush.jpg\" align=\"middle\"><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You owe it to these people!&nbsp; You sign these books.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Oh, jeez.&nbsp; I\u2019d rather go to Taco Bell.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>There was one instance where I flew into town on EIB 1, and on Sunday was the time she usually took me to the airport, and this particular Sunday she left half an hour early.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019ll meet you there. David, your brother\u2019s gonna take you. I gotta do something.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Okay, fine.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I didn\u2019t think anything of it. When I got out to the airport, there were 20 people on the airplane, and half of them she didn\u2019t know! She had just invited them.&nbsp; They were stopping into the town just to say hi to her, pulling out of I-55.&nbsp; And she invited people aboard! She knew I would say no to that.&nbsp; Security risk.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mom, you can\u2019t bring people you don\u2019t even know!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Oh, no, no. You don\u2019t understand. They love you. They wouldn\u2019t do anything.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You can\u2019t&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_125657\" class=\"img_middle aligncenter\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/AA-585-EIB-Text-Logo-Anniv-B.gif\" align=\"middle\"><\/p>\n<p>So there\u2019s 20 people on the airplane, all with books.&nbsp; She was just famous for it.&nbsp; She was just so honored that so many people liked her son that she just didn\u2019t say no. I mean, there were people at my grandfather\u2019s funeral that we didn\u2019t know.&nbsp; She invited \u2019em, almost like stuck a sign out on I-55 that said, &#8220;Stop for Limbaugh Sr.\u2019s funeral today if you have the time.&#8221; I roll up and I\u2019m looking around, &#8220;What is that?&#8221; (chuckling) So here she is in the early 1990s talking about me in my children-kindergarten days.<\/p>\n<p>MRS. LIMBAUGH:&nbsp; We had four- and five-year-old kindergarten here at the college, you know, The Train School, they call it, and one day the teacher, who is now gone, had me in for conference, like she did all the parents.&nbsp; She said, &#8220;If Rush doesn\u2019t&#8230;&#8221; She called him Rush. &#8220;If Rush doesn\u2019t change his ways, he\u2019ll never grow to be the man his grandfather is, or his father.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; I\u2019m 4 years old, and they\u2019re already pronouncing me a failure, in kindergarten! (laughing) Calling my mom in, saying if I don\u2019t change my ways&#8230; I don\u2019t know what I was doing. Throwing things at people? I don\u2019t know what I was doing.&nbsp; So here\u2019s a montage that Cookie put together: 28 years of confounding the establishment, confounding the media and politicians, trying to explain who I am in nicknames and description.&nbsp; Let me give you some of the people here in this montage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_125646\" class=\"img_middle aligncenter\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/EIBAudioRush-B.jpg\" align=\"middle\"><\/p>\n<p>We have Chris Wallace.

This is the last one.&nbsp; September 16th, 1992, on PBS\u2019 Firing Line.&nbsp; This is my first appearance, and William F. Buckley was one of my idols and heroes.&nbsp; It was a great thrill to get to know him, and this is his introduction of my appearance on that show.<\/p>\n<p>BUCKLEY:&nbsp; Rush Limbaugh is by everyone\u2019s reckoning a phenomenon, the most spectacular media success of recent years.&nbsp; His preeminent medium is a culture almost ignored by American critics, even the most beady-eyed, because it\u2019s assumed that nobody who really counts spends time listening to people talk over the radio.&nbsp; We should have taken more seriously the polls that for a couple of decades have told us that one-third of the American people get all their news from radio.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It is news that Rush Limbaugh sets out to give, though he could not&nbsp; perform as he does without reading scores of daily newspapers and weekly magazines he chews up.&nbsp; His medium is opinion.&nbsp; Advise him that the moon yesterday was caught blinking at the sun, and he will run that through his cosmology and come up with a meaning for it all.&nbsp; And, if the episode was good news, responsibility for that good news would be the Founding Fathers or Ronald Reagan or Clarence Thomas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_125658\" class=\"img_middle aligncenter\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Rush-and-Buckley.jpg\" align=\"middle\"><\/p>\n<p>If it was bad news, probably it was Teddy Kennedy or the National Organization for Women or the American Civil Liberties Union that is responsible for that frolic.&nbsp; What astonishes is that no one is surprised and only the humorless are really offended.&nbsp; In this sense, it\u2019s fair to say, I suppose, that he gets away with his scams as no one since Norman Lear got away with his in his series All in the Family, done at the expense of every conservative position ever held and glorious entertainment it was.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Rush Limbaugh was born to a family of lawyers, fooled around doing this and that for a while, decided not to sell potato chips for a living, went to Sacramento as a deejay, then came to New York City a few years ago.&nbsp; Veni, vidi, vici, it is said about Julius Caesar; he came, he saw, and he conquered.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; William F.
