How do you and the rest of the Clinton administration sleep, sir, knowing you did nothing about the genocide in Rwanda?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I figured for the 15th-anniversary issue of the Limbaugh Letter we\u2019d make it about me &#8212; since it\u2019s my newsletter. There\u2019s an extensive interview with me in there that Mr. Snerdley conducted and I don\u2019t know how, but he got stuff out of me that I\u2019ve never said before.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Faithful people frighten those who have no faith, because faithful people realize there\u2019s something larger than themselves.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What we\u2019re seeing here from Wesley Clark, Media Matters for America, and all of the Democrats on the floor of the House and Senate &#8212; denouncing me, a private citizen &#8212; is not just liberalism. It\u2019s Stalinist. It\u2019s using the power of the state to intimidate citizens.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If you\u2019re with a bunch of friends and the boat you\u2019re in sinks and you start drowning, they will stay away from you &#8212; because they\u2019re afraid you\u2019ll take them down with you. This has happened to me once, by the way. I fell off a raft on the Sacramento River.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Senate yesterday passed the annual defense authorization bill by a vote of 92-3. You libs in the kook fringe &#8212; did you hear that? The Senate passed the defense authorization bill for the new fiscal year, 92-3!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The left says, &#8216;We think both sides went too far here. The Petraeus ad clearly was over the line, but so were you with your phony soldiers comment.\u2019 One small reality: the &#8216;Betray Us\u2019 ad was created by them &#8212; and so was the &#8216;phony soldiers\u2019 smear! I didn\u2019t do anything!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The left says they support the troops, just not the mission. You can\u2019t! You support the troops, you support what they do, and what they do is the mission.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125100.Par.0002.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"184\" height=\"72\"><\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Who do you think General Petraeus would rather have on his side?
