You\u2019re up next on Open Line Friday. Hi. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Oh, this is the best moment of my day, maybe my year. Thank you so much. <\/p>\n<p>RUSH: It\u2019s my pleasure. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125111.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"399\" height=\"330\" class=\"alignright\"\/>CALLER: I actually called to make a remark about Hillary, but can I please slip in a little thing on religion and freedom? <\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Sure. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Because religion, without freedom, is exactly what radical Islam is. It\u2019s tyranny. They\u2019re a strong religion but no freedom, whereas freedom without religion is anarchy and total hedonism, which is the modern Liberal Party. <\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yes. That\u2019s a great way of illustrating John Adams being correct on this. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: And you are so profound. Your programs get deeper and better every single week. It\u2019s just something new and wonderful. <\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, thank you very much. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: But the remark I wanted to make about Hillary &#8212; <\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I actually think they get better by the day, but &#8212; <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: (laughter) I\u2019m going to join you there. <\/p>\n<p>RUSH: &#8212; that\u2019s a minor point. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yeah, you do. I was listening to Hillary sobbing about the hostage crisis in New Hampshire, and she provided perfect cannonball fodder for the Republican Party when she said, in the face of a small hostage crisis, that she was &#8216;bewildered and confused and angry.\u2019 Listen, if one hostage in an office can do this, what would an A-bomb do to her? <\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Or a bunch of American hostages at an embassy in another country. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Sure. She would be absolutely &#8212; please forgive me &#8212; wetting her pants. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125111.Par.4584.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"252\" height=\"363\" class=\"alignleft\"\/>RUSH: That is a brilliant observation, Ann, and it\u2019s perfectly illustrative of our times. Mrs. Clinton was probably none of that. She thought it important to SAY that because that\u2019s what would resonate with our feelings-obsessed culture. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Mmm-hmm. Again, back to the hedonism. <\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Exactly right. This is about letting people know that she knows how they feel. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Does she feel their pain? Ha-ha. <\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah, well&#8230; (laughing) I don\u2019t know about that but she\u2019s going to cause a lot if she gets a chance. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Just keep on entertaining and informing and teaching us every day. <\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, you\u2019re so sweet! You\u2019re just so nice. I appreciate that. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Take care. <\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Thanks, Ann.
