Mrs. Clinton will never be able to say that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<paragraph\/>\n<p>&#8220;I have great trust and faith that the damage we\u2019ve incurred against Al-Qaeda is far greater than anybody really knows; it just hasn\u2019t been reported. I\u2019m an optimistic guy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<paragraph\/>\n<p>&#8220;The first time my father saw me on television I was debating Algore, and during the first commercial break he turned to my mother and said, &#8216;Where did he learn this? He didn\u2019t go toschool.\u2019 My mother said, &#8216;From you, silly.\u2019 He was a brilliant man.&#8221;<\/p>\n<paragraph\/>\n<p>&#8220;I don\u2019t know how to milk a rat. And even if I knew how to milk a rat, I don\u2019t know that I would want to do it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<paragraph\/>\n<p>&#8220;Mrs. Clinton is strictly there as a candidate because she didn\u2019t divorce her husband. In fact, if her last name weren\u2019t Clinton, she\u2019d be the dean of some all-girls\u2019 school in Albania.&#8221; <\/p>\n<paragraph\/>\n<p>&#8220;What is so funny in there, Snerdley? You have some idiot on the phone? Well, it\u2019s Thanksgiving week. You have to figure this is not a period of normalcy, Mr. Snerdley. Go with it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<paragraph\/>\n<p>&#8220;I don\u2019t mean this to sound perverse, but I actually thank God that I became addicted to pain pills, because the process of going through rehab taught me more about myself than I had ever known.&#8221;<\/p>\n<paragraph\/>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019m getting loads of e-mails about our simulcast with Martha MacCallum: &#8216;Hey, Rush, I noticed that you and Martha didn\u2019t chat during the breaks.
