RUSH: I\u2019ve never seen people who are more angry in victory than this bunch. I don\u2019t care if it\u2019s the elected officials or Democrats in general out there. Barbara Boxer hit below the ovaries yesterday with Condoleezza Rice during the hearings that they we\u2019re conducting on the president\u2019s new strategy. Listen to this. Condoleezza Rice says, ‘I could never and I can never, do anything to replace any of those lost men and women in uniform or the diplomats, some of –‘<\/p>\n

BOXER: Madam Secretary, please. I know you feel terrible about it. That\u2019s not the point. I was making the case as to who pays the price for your decisions. Now, the issue is: Who pays the price? Who pays the price? I\u2019m not going to pay a personal price. My kids are too old and my grandchild is too young. You\u2019re not going to pay particular price, as I understand with an immediate family. So who pays the price? The American military and their families.<\/p>\n

RUSH: That is… I don\u2019t know where to start with this. Folks, this is unbelievable. This is… (sigh) How can you even describe this kind of thinking? Here you have a rich white chick with a huge big mouth trying to lynch, diss, an African-American woman right before Martin Luther King Day, hitting below the ovaries here. What about the childless Gloria Steinem? Drum her out of the feminist movement? I\u2019m going to tell you, I was joking the other day about setting up a lobbying group for the childless. This kind of thinking is exactly where we\u2019re headed with Democrats: if you haven\u2019t done anything, you can\u2019t comment on it; you can\u2019t participate in it. So according to Barbara Boxer, since Condoleezza Rice has nothing personal at stake in this, then her policy can\u2019t be trusted. I guess the same thing would have to be said about Barbara Boxer, but, see, she\u2019s on the right said of this because she doesn\u2019t want any nasty old war; she doesn\u2019t want anybody being killed; she doesn\u2019t want victory. She doesn\u2019t want any of this. <\/p>\n

This is, I think, a great illustration of the anger and the arrogance of who these people are — and I told you, it wouldn\u2019t take long, and this implosion is happening even sooner. I thought they\u2019d at least get through their first 100 hours without this kind of mess, but there\u2019s so many messes that are starting. Have you heard about this guy Kagen? This is hilarious, but it\u2019s like also, as well, illustrative here. A guy named Kagen, Steve Kagen, is freshman congressman from Wisconsin, and he went up to the White House during the little orientation they had there, the reception for arriving freshmen, and this is how he described it himself. ‘While meeting last month with a group of area peace activists, then Congressman-elect Steve Kagen told a story of his first visit to the White House … He told the group one of the first lessons he learned in Washington is to never pass up a rest room because you don\u2019t know when you\u2019ll see one again.<\/p>\n

‘He\u2019d already had a long day of freshman orientation when he and his wife, Gail, were expected at the White House. Upon arrival, he asks a Marine where he can find a rest room, and is sent down a long flight of stairs, to another Marine, who directs him to a rest room. ‘It\u2019s a small room &ndash; two spots on the wall, one stall one sink. I see in the mirror the door opens, and who walks in, Karl Rove … After Rove washed his hands (‘At least he\u2019s a hand washer,\u2019 Kagen said), he attempted to leave, but Kagen prevented his departure by holding the door closed and said, ”You\u2019re in the White House and you think your safe, huh? You recognize me? My name\u2019s Dr. Multimillionaire and I kicked your ass.” Kagen expected to make Rove squirm, but said [Rove] acted like it was a tennis match and simply said, ‘Oh, congratulations.\u2019 ‘We\u2019re walking up these long steps, I stopped him and said, ‘Look, the race is over. We\u2019re here to do the people\u2019s business. I want you to join me on something, but you can\u2019t steal it, I\u2019ve got the trademark: No patient left behind.\u2019 <\/p>\n

”He goes, ‘I like the sound of that.\u2019 We get to the top of the steps and there\u2019s Vice President Cheney with a glass of white wine and a hand in his pocket. So I wasn\u2019t going to miss this opportunity. Gail wasn\u2019t there to hold me back. ‘Mr. Vice President, thank you for your service to the nation, and thank you so much for coming to Green Bay and campaigning against me. I couldn\u2019t have won without your help.\u2019 He then asked Cheney to enunciate his vision for Iraq. He says that Cheney said: ”Well, I\u2019d like to see a stable government that could take care of itself and its people.\u2019 I said, ‘At what price?\u2019 He said, ‘I don\u2019t understand your point.\u2019 I walked away. Then we had an opportunity to take a picture with the president and his wife. I was feeling real good at this point. I said to my wife, ‘Honey, just follow my lead.\u2019 She said, ‘Steven, it\u2019s the president.\u2019 I said, ‘Yeah, but he\u2019s not any taller than I am.\u2019 So the cameraman\u2019s here. We\u2019re introduced by a Marine. <\/p>\n

”I said, ‘Mr. President, thank you for coming to Green Bay. My name is Dr. Multimillionaire. That was before the race. Now they call me Doctor Thousandaire. I couldn\u2019t have won without you coming.” He said Bush gave one of his smiles and said, ”I\u2019ve lost a lot of money in my life, too.\u2019 Then I go to his wife, ‘Hi Barbara, how are ya?\u2019 I did that because I learned on the campaign that the meanest thing you can say to another gentlemen is, ‘He\u2019s a fine fellow,\u2019 and you then refer to his spouse by a different name.” This is what passes here for Democrat civility and Democrat class. Again, this guy\u2019s name is Steve Kagen, he\u2019s a freshman from Wisconsin, and this is the story that he\u2019s bragging about. John Fund has written about it as well in his political diary at the OpinionJournal.com website, so you couple this with Barbara Boxer. Even Democrats in the hall yesterday in the room were appalled at the way she was treating Condoleezza Rice and what she said, but let\u2019s not forget what that thing was really all about. <\/p>\n

Before Barbara Boxer started hitting below the ovaries, you have to go back to the start, which was the foreign relation committee hearings. The media is watching. They are covering what they think is oversight of a serious Senate committee, looking at Iraq, but in truth what they were watching yesterday — what everybody else was really watching — is a gaggle of second-tier politicians with illusions of getting nominated for president in 2008, and they were all on display, and they were all pontificating as campaigners and as presidents, because when they look in the mirror and then see themselves, they see a president. That\u2019s part of ego, apparently, of being a senator. So what happened yesterday was not a search for wisdom; it was a search for television face time, for name recognition, for campaign donors — and, of course, for the all-important fawning Drive-By Media coverage. So the rules of engagement in this hearing are, the lower you go, the more bucks the kooks will kick in. Biden suggested that Cheney knows the war is lost. Dodd called the plan ‘a fool\u2019s paradise.\u2019 Obama got off an oh-so-clever tasteless, ‘We\u2019re not going to baby-sit a civil war:\u2019 but all the sound bites from all the second stringers, including John Kerry — who served in Vietnam 00 and the shameless Chuck Hagel, none could get as low as the statement from the San Francisco Treat Barbara Boxer: the mouth that shall live in infamy. If no children disqualifies Condoleezza Rice, does no brains, no class, and no taste disqualify Barbara Boxer?<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/line>RUSH: By the way, this Kagen guy, this Democrat freshman, Steve Kagen of Wisconsin, now that his comments are out there (they\u2019re out there all over the blogosphere) he\u2019s clamming up. He\u2019s not talk about this, and the theory is that he either said it and is this boorish, rude, classless, typically angry, enraged Democrat, or he made it up, or he is a fantacist who\u2019s telling everybody that he did all this, but he didn\u2019t. I\u2019ve been to the White House, and I know those steps that you have to walk down to get to the bathroom, and I\u2019ve been in that bathroom, and I have to tell you, the idea that Karl Rove would be in that bathroom… When I read that, I said, “This doesn\u2019t make sense.” That bathroom, they sent this guy way down two flights of steps. I was at the White House Christmas party a couple years ago when I saw this. I didn\u2019t go this year. Been there, done that. But it\u2019s just hard to know. The guy is either a fantacist, a liar, he makes it up, a braggart, or he\u2019s classless and a boor and enraged, and probably a little bit of both. <\/line><\/p>\n
