\"Listen<\/a> <\/p>\n

RUSH: This is Mark in Waterford, Michigan. It\u2019s great to have you on the EIB Network.  Hello, Mark.<\/p>\n

CALLER:  Thank you.  Glad to be here today.  You know, there is something that has never set right with me with regard to the Hillary Clinton candidacy.  If you remember back before she declared that she was gonna be running, she was going through this hemming and hawing, playing with the press and saying, “I don\u2019t know if I really want to. I don\u2019t know if I\u2019m gonna do this. I\u2019m not sure.”<\/p>\n

And everybody knew she was, and I think even you said, you know she\u2019s gonna run.  But to be honest with you, I\u2019ve always had this kind of funny feeling that this is not really about her.  This is about Bill Clinton.  And I think that she\u2019s running… Even if they have to prop her up on a stick behind the podium every time she goes before the public, she\u2019s going to be like a puppet president and allow her husband to be the third and fourth term of his first two terms.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  In other words, Hillary is a surrogate?<\/p>\n

CALLER:  Yes.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Well —<\/p>\n

CALLER:  I mean, I can\u2019t see… She is so ineffective at everything that she\u2019s done. Even when she was first lady and she tried to do health care, Hillarycare, it failed miserably.  And we\u2019ve seen now that Obamacare obviously is failing miserably, and was a very similar program.<\/line><\/p>\n

RUSH:  Oh, wait \u2019til you hear the news today on Obama.  This is stunning.  We\u2019ve got… Who is it? Aetna<\/a>. Eleven out of 15 exchanges, they\u2019re pulling out of.<\/p>\n

CALLER:  Yes.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  But the Aetna… This guy what he says is… It\u2019s laughable.  I\u2019ll get to that in just a second.  Look, let me respectfully disagree with you here.  I think it may be, in fact, the other way around.  We\u2019re dealing with Nurse Ratched.  We\u2019re not dealing with an invalid here.  And, in fact, your theory may be more applicable in reverse during Bill Clinton\u2019s presidency when she (behind the scenes) was actually running the show, and he was dodging ashtrays if he disagreed with what she wanted to do. <\/p>\n

Now, I\u2019m exaggerating a little bit here, but this woman is not a wallflower.  This woman is not a front for anybody.  This woman has been thinking that the presidency should have been hers in 1992, and she\u2019s been ticked off that she couldn\u2019t run and win as a woman in 1992 because of the discriminatory tendencies of our backward, patriarchal society.  She\u2019s been harboring resentment about that going back to the Watergate days when she got thrown off for trying to deny a Republican his constitutional rights. <\/p>\n

Republicans don\u2019t deserve constitutional rights in her world.  She got canned, anyway.  She failed the bar exam in Washington.  That\u2019s why she had to go to Arkansas.  And boy, people have been paying the price for making her do that ever since.  Now, I admit to you she looks frail. (sigh) You know, there is nothing to be gained by pointing this out, either.  I mean, I\u2019m just… She did not… I don\u2019t know.  I know what you\u2019re, “Oh, you think Trump looks good?  What about Trump\u2019s looks?” No, folks. <\/p>\n

<\/a>I\u2019m not talking about attractiveness or hairstyles or anything.  I\u2019m just talking about… (sigh) She just didn\u2019t look good.  You know what that means. You\u2019ve seen people that don\u2019t look good, that don\u2019t look healthy, that don\u2019t look… I don\u2019t know.  There\u2019s nothing to be gained by pointing this out.  I probably should never have gone there.  But I did finish.  That\u2019s all I\u2019m gonna say about it.  I said that in the first hour.  But I don\u2019t doubt… Now, Mark, don\u2019t misunderstand.  Bill Clinton\u2019s not a wallflower, either. <\/p>\n

And he\u2019s not just gonna be, you know, hosting tea for the first ladies that show up with their husbands who are visiting Hillary.  I mean, it was a co-presidency back then, and I think you\u2019re right it\u2019s gonna be a co-presidency this time around, too.  It\u2019ll be both of them. “Blue Plate Special,” that\u2019s what they said.  But she\u2019s not — she\u2019s not — gonna take the background position.  She\u2019s not gonna be a figurehead.  This campaign… It\u2019s hard for people to understand this level of ambition.  Most people don\u2019t have it. <\/p>\n

Most people don\u2019t have it, because most people don\u2019t have the singular craving for power that these two people have.  So it\u2019s hard to relate.  But she, in her mind, has been destined for this since whenever — college, junior high, I don\u2019t know when. In her mind, she has been destined for it.  And then there\u2019s a support group and a bunch of sycophants that sprung up around the Clintons in their college days that has been behind \u2019em all the way.<\/p>\n

And it\u2019s grown, and it\u2019s festered as they have grown: Their fundraising groups, all of their donors from all over the world. I mean, it is a huge, huge, huge political machine that spans the globe.  And he\u2019s gonna get his shots. He\u2019s gonna. He\u2019s gonna have \u2019em. But she\u2019s not a placeholder for him.  In their world, he had his turn; now it\u2019s hers.  And he\u2019s gotta go into the background like she did and put up with all the crap she put up with.  It\u2019s his turn now.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Here\u2019s Marley in Arlington, California.  Arlington, California?  Where is Arlington, California?<\/p>\n

CALLER:  It\u2019s Lincoln.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  It\u2019s Lincoln, California?<\/p>\n

CALLER:  Yes.  Outside of Sacramento.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Oh, okay.  I know that spot. Well, how does it get to be Arlington? Did you tell him Arlington?<\/p>\n

<\/a>CALLER:  That\u2019s just a mistake by your screener.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Oh, he must have thought that you were calling from Arlington Cemetery.<\/p>\n

CALLER:  There you go. (chuckling) I was in the Air Force.  That could be.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Could be.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hey, my question to you, Rush, is why doesn\u2019t the news media ask Hillary why she stayed with husband Bill when he was impeached as president.<\/p>\n

RUSH: (chuckles) They\u2019re afraid of the answer.<\/p>\n

CALLER: (laughing) There you go.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  They\u2019re not gonna asks that question. They\u2019ve got a built-in answer for that. “It\u2019s because that\u2019s a solid marriage. That is a marriage that most Americans ought to aspire to. She hung in there in his time of need! He was under duress, being attacked by the vast right-wing conspiracy.  She could have left.  She could have split.  She could have forged her own life for herself. But she hung in there.”  That is the mythical tale that they tell.<\/p>\n

CALLER:  Mmm. True.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  But she didn\u2019t leave because of this.  That he was the deal! This is what is owed to her for staying, for hanging in.  It was supposed to happen in 2008, and then somebody more attractive came along.  That had to be… Man, every time I think about that, I think about how ticked off the Clintons had to be, because the Democrats literally broke a promise and pulled the rug right out from under her.  She might have even been told, “Don\u2019t worry, he\u2019s not gonna win, but we can\u2019t tell a black guy, ‘You can\u2019t run.\u2019 But don\u2019t worry, Hillary. It\u2019s in the bag.”  Just like they did to Bernie this year. They might have even told her that.  But 2008… She was supposed to be wrapping up her presidency this year.  And when they pulled that rug out from under her, man! The ashtrays that were thrown on that day?<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH:  I\u2019m telling you the plan as far back as Arkansas.  The Clintons have written about this in several Clinton… Well, they haven\u2019t, but Clinton biographies mention this.  Bill was gonna get his two terms, and Hillary was then going to get her two terms.  That was their personal goal, and Hillary\u2019s two terms were supposed to be ending this year.  We all know what happened to that.  So that\u2019s why we\u2019re putting up with all this stuff now.  That\u2019s why the Bernie thing was never, ever gonna happen.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
