RUSH: We\u2019ve got this story here. It\u2019s all over the LA Times. A lot of people are talking about it, the approval of Congress, lowest in a decade. Los Angeles Times\/Bloomberg poll. Just 27% of Americans now approve of the way Congress is doing its job, down from 36% in January when Democrats assumed control of the House and Senate. Now, listen to the opening paragraph of the LA Times story. ‘Fueled by disappointment at the pace of change since Democrats assumed the majority on Capitol Hill, public approval of Congress has fallen to its lowest…\u2019 that\u2019s absolute bunk! People aren\u2019t upset with Congress because it\u2019s not doing anything. That\u2019s when people love Congress, most people. They\u2019re upset because of what they\u2019re trying to do and in some of the things that are happening. But the point of this is this. <\/p>\n

Thomas Lifson<\/a> makes a great point here at the AmericanThinker.com. Congress ought to just get on with the people\u2019s business and stop spending resources on trivial issues to besmirch the Bush administration, stop favoring terrorists, stop engaging in tactical measures meant to defeat the administration, and end the hypocrisy and cynicism. This lowest in a decade measure is occurring during a Democrat Congress. Reid, Pelosi, are running that show, and the lowest congressional ratings in ten years. All they\u2019re doing is beating up on Bush every day, trying to get Alberto Gonzales canned. The Senate had a meaningless resolution yesterday, a lack of confidence, and the Republicans beat it back. They are, you could say do-nothing, whatever, but the key here is this is a great opportunity for the Republicans because the Democrats came in promising all these wonderful ethical reforms, none of which are happening. In fact, Boehner, the Republican leader in the House, says he\u2019s going to go to war over earmarks because the way the Democrats are doing earmarks in the House now, David Obey is the author of this, and we were told, by the way, that back in November one of the reason Republicans lost is some of their voters were upset with all these earmarks. Pork. <\/p>\n

What David Obey is doing, they\u2019re slipping the earmarks in after the spending bills have been agreed to and signed so that nobody knows they\u2019re there until it\u2019s too late to do anything about it. They\u2019re basically doing it under the cover of darkness in bright sunshine. Boehner is prepared to go to war over this. But this is a great opportunity for somebody to show some leadership for a change on the Republican side, somewhere in Congress. There are a lot of things out there that the American people do want their government to do, and those things are not being done. And one of them is get this immigration bill right, get this thing fixed. And, by the way, there\u2019s movement on that that\u2019s a positive sign. You might say that this is a sign that Democracy works. Rich Lowry just posted at the corner that Saxby Chambliss and Senator Isakson were at the press conference announcing the Senate grand compromise but now they\u2019re singing a different tune. <\/p>\n

Here\u2019s their press release. ‘U.S. Senators Johnny Isakson (R-Ga.) and Saxby Chambliss (R-Ga.) today sent a letter to President Bush urging him to send an emergency supplemental spending bill to Congress to fund border security. Isakson and Chambliss believe emergency supplemental funds to secure the border will go a long way towards restoring the confidence of the American people in the federal government\u2019s commitment to border security.\u2019 I\u2019ve got the text of the letter here, and here\u2019s an interesting passage, ‘As we travel around Georgia and continue to hear from our constituents, the message from a majority of Georgians is that they have no trust that the United States Government will enforce the laws contained in this new legislation and secure the border first.\u2019<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a silver lining in this cloud, too. In addition to the bill being temporarily dead, the silver lining here is that millions and millions of Americans are seeing that big government can\u2019t get anything done and that big government does not respond to the American people. Now, what Lowery means here that there may be a sign that democracy works here, is Saxby Chambliss, he was — I mean after this thing was announced in secret and they came out and started selling, he was on the trail, one of the loudest salesmen, one of the loudest spokesman for this now defunct bill, he\u2019s done a 180. He\u2019s heard what his constituents have to say. But in this situation, most of the people involved in this bill who are for it know exactly what the people of this country think and don\u2019t care. It\u2019s like Dianne Feinstein said yesterday or Sunday, whenever she said it, ‘I have never received more racist and hate-filled phone messages and e-mails in my 15-year career in the Senate.\u2019 We all know what that\u2019s about. That\u2019s to discredit the critics so the next time they bring the bill up, the people being criticized can throw it off and laugh it off because that\u2019s just coming from a bunch of kooks. <\/p>\n

So you have a great illustration here that big government is not responsive, big government doesn\u2019t exist to serve the people, big government exists to serve itself, big government exists to grow larger and larger, big government exists to spend money and tax whoever they can and need to in order to get the money to spend. What they can\u2019t tax they\u2019ll go out and borrow. So there\u2019s a lot of opportunities here for people to see the inefficiency of bureaucracies, the obstinacy of elitist politicians, and now we\u2019re starting to see some turnarounds from some of the participants here. It\u2019s a laugher, too, because Dingy Harry can only get 38 of his 51 Democrats to vote for this bill. That\u2019s one of the reasons that he pulled it. By the way, President Bush President Bush is up there having lunch with these guys now. Jeff Sessions has come out — GOP senator to Bush: Back off on ailing immigration bill. ‘As President Bush prepares to make a rare visit to Capitol Hill on Tuesday to push his ailing immigration plan, Jeff Sessions from Alabama is saying the president should back off and help us write a better bill.\u2019 Now, during that lunch that\u2019s going on now, the president is hoping to get 15 Republican supporters to change their minds on the bill, but Jeff Sessions made it clear today he\u2019s not going to be swayed. ‘Frankly, I think the president is wrong to push this piece of legislation so hard after we demonstrated the flaws that are in it. He needs to back off.\u2019 <\/p>\n

Now, this is big because this is a senator telling the leader of his party who happens to be the president, ‘Mr. President, you don\u2019t have anything we need anymore.\u2019 Lame duck, whatever you want to call it, there\u2019s no reason for us to jump in line behind you. And besides, we don\u2019t believe in this thing anyway. So back off and come back and do this and get it fixed. Saxby Chambliss and his guy, Johnny Isakson, have the right idea, get border security and move on it fast, and they might have some fortune, some good luck in turning around some public opinion on this, if it actually were to happen. Rich Lowry<\/a> has a great piece in National Review Online about how long it took us to build the Empire State Building, like 431 days. The Hoover Dam got built in the Great Depression in very short period of time. It cost a lot of money. And we\u2019re being told we can\u2019t build a fence. We can\u2019t build a fence. The Hoover Dam — I\u2019ll go through the details here after the break about what was involved in building the Hoover Dam and what a monumental undertaking that was. Well, the Golden Gate Bridge and the Bay Bridge happened in the thirties as well. Now we can\u2019t build a fence. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s frightening that we\u2019ve lost this dynamism and we lost the will to do these things. ‘Oh, we can\u2019t do that,\u2019 and these things can be done. We\u2019re the United States of America. Anyway, Dingy Harry now blaming the president, told Bush the only hope for the bill is if he can come up and deliver more than 20 Republican senators to break the filibuster and pass the measure. Dingy Harry said he\u2019s maxed out at 38 votes that they delivered on a test vote last week. He\u2019s 22 votes short of breaking the filibuster. Dingy Harry said, simply put, we need many more than seven Republicans to vote for cloture and final passage of the bill. Now, my question is, Dingy Harry, you\u2019re the guy that runs the Senate. The problem is, if you can\u2019t get all 51 of your guys in lockstep on this, why is it the Republicans — well, we want a partisan bill, it\u2019s the president\u2019s bill and all that. So he\u2019s dumping on the president to get the votes and the president\u2019s up there trying to accept the challenge.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Listen to this. ‘In five years, we built the Hoover Dam. From 1931 to 1936, the Colorado River was diverted with tunnels blasted into the Black Canyon walls, a town was built to house a small army of workers laboring in the desert, and 3 1\/4 million cubic yards of concrete were poured into a dam reaching 726 1\/2 feet high – two years ahead of schedule. It\u2019s hard to look back at this monumental effort without a feeling of envy. The dam was completed on the backs of desperate men during the Great Depression, but from this remove, it looks like an apotheosis of the can-do spirit. Who believes we could do something similar today – that political bickering, governmental bungling, Occupational Safety and Health Administration regulations, lawsuits and environmental objections wouldn\u2019t make such a project all but impossible? In the 1930s, the Empire State Building was built in 410 days; more than five years after 9\/11, the World Trade Center site still features a gaping hole.\u2019 <\/p>\n

Now we get to the Senate\u2019s grand compromise on immigration and how we can\u2019t build a fence, and we can\u2019t do this and we can\u2019t listen to the people, and we can\u2019t get it right. I\u2019m going to tell you, you look at past achievements, when the government actually did good things. That\u2019s why I say, the opportunity exists here for the American public finally to have their fill of big government and understand that it is not the answer to their lives. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: RUSH: I checked the e-mail here during the break, and I want to thank those of you who asked me this question, because it enabled me to focus my answer. ‘Rush, we don\u2019t quite understand why this immigration bill failing and all this is going to make people think that government, big government is inefficient and doesn\u2019t accomplish anything.\u2019 It\u2019s because of this, folks. The reason the immigration bill failed is that none of us believe what they\u2019re telling us about it. We know it\u2019s not going to work, because be it hasn\u2019t worked with the current legislation that we\u2019ve got because it\u2019s not being enforced and so they\u2019re insulting our intelligence. This is something that the elites and the political class have constantly done. They\u2019ve talked down and they\u2019ve been a bit arrogant and they conclude that the people just don\u2019t have enough experience, education or knowledge to understand the intricacies of their jobs, but we just don\u2019t believe what we\u2019re being told about this. We don\u2019t believe what the president\u2019s saying about it. We know it\u2019s amnesty! They say it\u2019s not. They\u2019re telling us we don\u2019t understand it. We read it. We\u2019ve had people that have read it. They\u2019re telling us that the Z Visa is not what we think it is. It is. The Z Visa means you are legal after your 24-hour background check.<\/p>\n

By the way, speaking of a 24-hour background check, do you know that there are people all over the country who made summer plans traveling internationally who went through all the right procedures to get their passports and they still don\u2019t have \u2019em because the government that says it\u2019s going to protect the borders and make sure they\u2019re going to find out in 24 hours every one of these Z Visa holders whether they\u2019re legal or not do a background check? I have a friend who works in a congressional representative\u2019s office in North Carolina, and these people have done everything they were supposed to do. They applied ten to 12 weeks before their trip for their passport. They\u2019ve gone out and they\u2019ve purchased the various elements of the trip that are nonrefundable. They can\u2019t get the money back, and now they can\u2019t take the trip because the federal government can\u2019t get \u2019em their passports in 12 weeks, and they live here! They\u2019re in the white pages! They have Social Security numbers. They pay their taxes. There are any number of records the US government has. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s been ten to 12 weeks they haven\u2019t got their passports, and this is happening all over the country, and so when people can\u2019t get their government to get them a passport in three months, at the same time that government says, ‘All right, 24 hours. Yeah, we\u2019re going to find out who all these people are. We\u2019re going to make sure they\u2019re qualified for the Z Visa.\u2019 People are just not buying it, folks. It\u2019s just that simple. It really is no more complicated than that. The simple characteristic of this, or the fact that is simple to understand is it\u2019s a great boon. People don\u2019t believe Ted Kennedy, and they don\u2019t believe McCain, and I\u2019m watching that Republican debate, and McCain\u2019s up there going on and on about the bill. He\u2019s sinking because nobody in the audience is buying it. Do you realize what a great opportunity this is? Nobody was believing it, and he finally had to admit, ‘Well, it\u2019s not the bill I would have written, but if somebody has a better idea, speak up.\u2019 Somebody did! Sombody said, ‘Enforce the laws that we\u2019ve got on the books now! Security the border.\u2019 But they don\u2019t do that. By the way, concomitant with the fact that we don\u2019t believe them, is we also then begin to seriously consider, ‘Are they trying to sneak something through here?\u2019<\/p>\n

This is so obviously wrong what they\u2019re trying to get us to believe, what\u2019s their real motivation? People aren\u2019t even believing their real motivation. Their real motivation is, ‘Well, these are the downtrodden, the poor, the tired, the hungry, the thirsty. They\u2019re just seeking a better life, and they want to come to the United States, the lone outpost of freedom and economic prosperity and all, and then we gotta bring these people out of the shadows.\u2019 They\u2019re not in the shadows. They\u2019re doing interviews on television, and they\u2019re complaining that the bill hasn\u2019t been signed; they\u2019re complaining the bill hasn\u2019t passed. So we hear, ‘Oh, we love these people. Bring them out of the shadows.\u2019 That\u2019s not what\u2019s going on here. These politicians are looking for votes! They\u2019re looking for new voters. The Democrats are looking to expand the welfare state. The Republicans are getting snookered in the whole thing, and people know this. They instinctively and expressly understand it. Then we get treated to other examples of what they say what the bill is all about and people understand, ‘Wait a minute. You\u2019re telling us the future of our country is a never ending flow of undereducated, low-skilled labor? That\u2019s the future of our country?\u2019<\/p>\n

You pile on top of that by telling the people who understand, all of us, we\u2019re not being told the truth about it. We don\u2019t believe them when they tell us, then they call us names: nativists, racists. There\u2019s something here that is 180 degrees out of phase. This is a tipping point. It has the potential to be a tipping point because this reaction from the American people crosses all these party and ideological divides. Even moderates are upset about this, and they don\u2019t get upset about anything, because they don\u2019t have opinions on anything, but you have Democrats upset; some liberals are upset; obviously Republicans and conservatives all across the board — and the government, their senators, their congressmen, are saying things at them they know are not true. So that\u2019s why I say it\u2019s an opportunity here for people to finally see the truth about big government, the inefficiency, of course, the desire to control. That\u2019s what this is. Big government exists for the acquisition of power, and they you use the power to control<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Dean in Dallas, I\u2019m glad you called, sir, and welcome to the program.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, Rush. I can\u2019t believe they\u2019re up to it again, you know, Kyl and McCain? I call them the ‘amnesty brothers.\u2019 You know, after getting a clear message last week, they\u2019re trying to do it again, the backdoor deals with the Democrats.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah?<\/p>\n

CALLER: President Bush.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah?<\/p>\n

CALLER: I believe they think there\u2019s a lull here in the anti-amnesty pressure so they\u2019re trying to sneak through again.<\/p>\n

RUSH: They are wasting our time. They\u2019re wasting their time and they\u2019re wasting our time, trying to revive this, because as I just said: Nobody believes what they\u2019re saying about this. They have lost their credibility. Nobody even believes the motives that they assign to themselves for caring about this. Nobody believes a thing about this that government officials are saying. But I told you on Monday they\u2019re going to revive it. They\u2019re going to try to. The president\u2019s up there having lunch today trying to get Republicans to change their mind and vote for this thing.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, let\u2019s build a wall first, then figure out what to do with the 28 million illegals later. It\u2019s that simple.<\/p>\n

RUSH: I\u2019ve been trying to say that, but see, they\u2019re not interested in that. (sigh) The people that want this want a steady flow of illegal immigrants so that they can be utilized for low-wage labor, and they can be controlled because they\u2019re uneducated, and they\u2019ll end up needing social services. They\u2019ll become dependent. This is the desire of big government: to get bigger and bigger and bigger. People instinctively know this. This is not hard for people to figure out, which is why there\u2019s so much opposition to it. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
