RUSH: John in Mount Shasta, California, welcome to the program, sir. It\u2019s great to have you with us.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Good day, Rush. Earlier you mentioned that the Democrats had wasted the Craig situation.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I don\u2019t think they did because the Hillary-Chinese contribution thing has kind of been slipped under the rug, and nobody seems to be talking about it.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You know, it\u2019s an amazing thing. When the Clintons get into trouble, they always turn to the ChiComs, and the ChiComs always come through. You know, you\u2019re right. First we had the Lippo Group, and James Riady, and we had Charlie Trie of the Chinese barbecue place in Little Rock. We had Johnny Chung. We had all these guys in the \u201996 fundraising scandal, all this money coming in from the Peoples Liberation Army of China. Now we\u2019ve got this Norman Hsu guy, and Hillary\u2019s running around saying, ‘I had no idea he was a fugitive! Why, I had no idea,\u2019 and Clinton said (impression), ‘Well, there\u2019s no way we could know he was a fugitive. There are too many donors out there. You can\u2019t vet all these people. But Hillary gave the money away, and he donated to charity. It\u2019s all right, and if we find out that more of it came from him and it\u2019s wrong, we\u2019ll give it back. We\u2019ll say we\u2019re not going to take it; we\u2019re not going to accept it.\u2019 I was watching Meet the Press yesterday, and they did a whole roundtable. Russert did a whole roundtable. It was Mary Matalin. It was Carville. It was Bob Shrum, and Mike Murphy, political consultants extraordinaire, and this fundraising thing came up. Do you know what the conventional wisdom on this is? Carville led off saying (paraphrased), ‘Well, of course you have so many donors out there, it\u2019s impossible to keep track of who these people are,\u2019 and he started citing several instances of sleazy donors to the Republicans, and said, ‘They didn\u2019t know, either.\u2019 <\/p>\n

But, folks, nothing happens with the Clintons that is coincidence. Here\u2019s Norman Hsu. He\u2019s from Hong Kong. He\u2019s Chinese. It\u2019s not known whether he has any ties to the ChiComs, but come on! This is twelve years apart: \u201996, now 2008. Somebody, I forget who, said today, ‘It\u2019s interesting. In the Chinese calendar, 1996 and 2008 are the year of the rat,\u2019 and these two years happen to be years in which there is suspicious fundraising going to the Clintons, and nobody seems to care about this. Now, the Craig thing, obviously… Look, the Drive-Bys, they swerved right by Gonzales. They swerved right by a whole bunch of things, and they have zeroed in on this Larry Craig thing. They are paying no attention to Hillary\u2019s fundraising, or the scandal involving this guy, other than to report it as, ‘She gave the money to charity. What a woman! What a candidate, and of course she didn\u2019t know where the guy came from!\u2019 Of course not! She doesn\u2019t know anything. I\u2019ve got a list of sound bites. In fact, let\u2019s get started with them. Let\u2019s take a break. We\u2019ll take a break, I\u2019ll find these sound bites, because we\u2019ve got years of examples of Hillary saying, ‘I don\u2019t know. I don\u2019t remember that. It\u2019s the biggest surprise in the world to me.\u2019 <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Here\u2019s Hillary Clinton, January 1992, 60 Minutes. This is about what voters want in a candidate.<\/p>\n

HILLARY 1992: Part of what I believe with all my heart is that the voters are tired of people who lie to them. They\u2019re tired of people who act like something they\u2019re not. They\u2019re tired of people who deny problems. They\u2019re tired of people who neglect problems. <\/line>RUSH: Right. This is what her husband was running for president. This is when she was pulling off the Elizabeth Edwards routine. Let\u2019s go last Thursday in Manhattan at a press conference talking to reporters about the money that Norman Hsu donated to her campaign.<\/line><\/p>\n

HILLARY 2007: We do the very best job we can based on the information available to us to make appropriate vetting decisions, and this one, uhh, was a big surprise to everybody.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Of course it was. Why, it was a huge surprise! Well, does that sound familiar? Let\u2019s go back to her Senate campaign. She was shocked and surprised her own brother was selling pardons.<\/p>\n

HILLARY 2000: You know, it came as a surprise, uhh, to me, and it was very disturbing, and I\u2019m just, uh, very disappointed about it. I did, uh, not, uh, have any involvement, you know, and, uh, I\u2019m just very, uh, disappointed about my brother\u2019s involvement. If I had known about, uh, this, we wouldn\u2019t be standing here today. Uhhh, I didn\u2019t know about it, and I\u2019m very…regretful that, uh, it occurred, that I didn\u2019t know about it. Uh, I might have been able to prevent this from happening. And I\u2019m just very disappointed about the whole matter. I did not know. I was heartbroken and — and shocked by it.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, it was a big surprise to find out that Norman Hsu was this bad guy! That\u2019s a big shock to us. When her brothers were involved in the Marc Rich pardons, she was stunned at that. Let\u2019s go to the Pretty in Pink press conference from our program archives, April 22nd, 1994.<\/p>\n

HILLARY 1994: The young attorney, the young bank officer did all the work, and the letter was sent, but because I was what you call ‘the billing attorney\u2019 — in other words, I had to send the bill to get the payment made — my name was put on the bottom of the letter. It was not an area that I practiced in. It was not an area that I really know anything, to speak of, about.<\/p>\n

RUSH: She\u2019s talking about the billing records. You know, where the hell were the billing records? Well, my name was on them, but I had no idea why my name was on it! I didn\u2019t know what it was about it! It was a total shock. Also, this is from the same press conference, the Pretty in Pink press conference, April 22nd, \u201994, a semi-identified reporter named Mike says, ‘Mrs. Clinton, could you clarify for us what documents were removed from Vince Foster\u2019s office after he died and why were they there in the first place?\u2019<\/p>\n

HILLARY 1994: Mike, I — I can tell you what I know which is that I did not know that Vince had any of the documents related to our personal business in his office until after his death.<\/p>\n

RUSH: When I snuck in there and found \u2019em and pulled them out. She never knows anything! She wants to be president of the United States, and she never knows anything! January 27, 1998, Today show.<\/p>\n

HILLARY 1998: Answer my husband. I mean, you know, he woke me up Wednesday morning and said, ‘You\u2019re not going to believe this, but…\u2019 and I said, ‘What is this?\u2019 And so, yeah, it came as a very big surprise.<\/p>\n

LAUER: He said, ‘But\u2019? He said ‘but\u2019 what?<\/p>\n

HILLARY1998: ‘But…I want to tell you what\u2019s in the newspapers.\u2019<\/p>\n

RUSH: This was the Monica story. This is how she was explaining how Bill was going to tell her about the Monica story. To sum it all up, here\u2019s the Breck Girl talking about Hillary. Of course he denied he was talking about Hillary.<\/p>\n

EDWARDS: The American people deserve to know that their presidency is not for sale,the Lincoln bathroom is not for rent, and lobbyist money can no longer influence policy in the House or the Senate.<\/p>\n

RUSH: So she didn\u2019t know about Monica — of course, she probably vetted Monica, you know. The bottom line here is, folks, the woman knows nothing, is surprised by everything, and yet wants to be our president.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
