RUSH: Hey, Henry? Somebody flag the tape. Well, Henry Waxman\u2019s staff is monitoring the program. I want to clue them in when I play items they might find to be ‘irregular\u2019 or worthy of harassing me over. I just want to point \u2019em right to it. Hey, Henry! There\u2019s going to be the new… Hey, Henry, listen to this. This is out of Chicago Tribune. ‘Debate on Troop Withdrawals on Hold — Congressional Democrats have put on the back burner legislation ordering troops home from Iraq and turned their attention to war-related proposals that Republicans are finding hard to reject. The legislative agenda marks a dramatic shift for party leaders who vowed repeated votes to end combat and predicted Republicans would eventually join them. But with Democrats still lacking enough votes to bring troops home, the party runs the risk of concluding its first year in control of Congress with little to show…\u2019 This has been one of the most disastrous — Henry, listen to this. This has been one of the most disastrous ten months for a speaker of the House in the history of speakers of the House. The only thing of note that this House of Representatives has accomplished is the lowest approval ratings in I don\u2019t know how long. <\/p>\n

Did you get that, Henry? Henry\u2019s staff? Henry, there\u2019s something else you might want to know. (This is Henry Waxman, I\u2019m talking to.) You might want to be warned of this. The more liberals are exposed to this program, such as your crack investigative staff, the more likely they are to question their own beliefs. We\u2019ve turned many to the right side, away from the dark side, and you run the risk of having this happen to your committed staff of investigators. So I just want to warn you, just to protect your base, if you will. Here are the 11 items in Algore\u2019s movie, ladies and gentlemen. By the way, I predicted this. This Iraq thing is going to be off the table very soon. It\u2019s off the table, and there\u2019s a quote here from John Tanner, ‘conservative\u2019 Democrat from Tennessee, ‘We can no longer approach the discussion on Iraq as a partisan issue.\u2019 Really? I wonder why? (whispering) Do I know these people? Do I know these people? I knew this was going to happen. They\u2019re not going to saddle themselves with defeat. Plus, have you noticed there aren\u2019t any pictures on television at night anymore of burning cars and bombs exploding? It\u2019s because it\u2019s not happening! It\u2019s because the progress over there is amazing. <\/p>\n

I\u2019ve got a piece in the stack later on today from a guy at the American Thinker who says we\u2019re on the verge of victory and that that brings its own perils. It\u2019s a fascinating piece. He goes back and uses an analogy to the Battle of the Bulge, to say what we\u2019ve gotta be vigilant for here, because victory in Iraq is — the insurgents cannot, the terrorists cannot simply allow the world to see them defeated, so they\u2019ll strike back somewhere, and they\u2019ll go for the softest spot they can — and the theory is that the United States, with our border insecurity and people that may be part of cells already in the country present, perhaps, the softest spot that they could hit, so it\u2019s something we need to be vigilant about. I\u2019ll give you all the details of it because it\u2019s fascinating. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
