In March of 2008, Hillary Clinton ran an ad, a Hillary for President ad &#8212; and the ad has been scrubbed from her website. There is no YouTube version of it. It has been taken down. You cannot find it anywhere. But I have the transcript of the ad, a little 30-second ad, and this was it. The announcer opens by saying, &#8216;Barack Obama says he has the judgment to be president. But as chairman of an oversight committee charged with the force of fighting Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan, he was too busy running for president to hold even one hearing.\u2019 Then they have Obama actually saying, &#8216;I\u2019ve (unintelligible) chairman, this committee, beginning campaign, 2007, so, yeah, it\u2019s true. We have not had one oversight hearing on Afghanistan.\u2019 He never did conduct a hearing. The announcer comes back and says, &#8216;Hillary Clinton will never be too busy to defend our national security, bringing our troops home from Iraq, and pursuing Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan,\u2019 and he closes with the, &#8216;I am Hillary Clinton and I approved this message.\u2019 You can\u2019t find the ad on YouTube. It\u2019s been scrubbed from her website. Don\u2019t forget, she was given $20 million to help retire her campaign fund. That will buy a lot of cooperation. Mrs. Clinton &#8212; Mrs. Clinton, of all people &#8212; warned us of this. This is smack-dab in the middle of Operation Chaos, by the way, March of 2008. To the phones we go, Sarah in Las Vegas. You\u2019re first. It\u2019s great to have you with us today. Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hi, Rush. I have&#8230; I\u2019m a little nervous. So I got a 19-year-old grandson in the army and he\u2019s supposed to deploy to Afghanistan in June of next year. (choking up) He wants to go, but I\u2019m very nervous about it with and I just wonder what you think Obama\u2019s going to do about that kid.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125111.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"281\" height=\"402\" class=\"alignright\"\/>RUSH: You know, we took a call from a distressed mother in Texas, I think it was last week. She had the same identical circumstance, other than her son is going before next June. I must tell you: I really feel for you. I don\u2019t know&#8230; If I had a son that wanted to go&#8230; I\u2019m thinking about, you know, the troops that are there, I\u2019m thinking, &#8216;What must they think? What is their morale?\u2019 Their commander has asked for more troops otherwise the whole thing may go down the tubes and the guy is flying off to Denmark on a Chicago Olympics bid. He\u2019s on television all over the place talking about health care. He\u2019s putting the decision off pending a &#8216;strategy review.\u2019 Meanwhile, the North Koreans and the Iranians are launching test missiles, and they send this doofus Gibbs, the White House press secretary out there, to give a statement. Gibbs is saying &#8216;Iran must demonstrate it will give up weapons program.\u2019 The world doesn\u2019t care what Gibbs says! The world wants to hear what Obama says about it, but Obama is too busy trying to get the Olympics in Chicago and who the hell knows what else. Sarah &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Right.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: &#8212; I &#8212; I &#8212; (sigh)<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: You know to choose &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: The fact is, I don\u2019t know what Obama is going to do in Afghanistan. All I can tell you is that he has said &#8212; I need this quote. I think we had it as an audio sound bite. Certainly we can find the text of the quote. He said he\u2019s troubled with the whole concept of victory in Afghanistan. It reminded him of how humiliating it must have been for the Japanese to sign the surrender treaty in World War II aboard the USS Missouri. I read that and I was aghast. I think if you listen to what the man said at the UN, he doesn\u2019t believe in victory.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, to die for a noble cause is a noble thing. I believe that. But to go over there with you don\u2019t even care if there\u2019s a victory, it\u2019s pathetic. I\u2019m just sick and tired of it.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Look, I understand. To quote former president, &#8216;I feel your pain.\u2019 I mean I really do. You\u2019ve had this man speak at the United Nations last week that we\u2019re all equal here. There\u2019s no nation any better than any others. The days of us being a superpower essentially are finished.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, Netanyahu, to me, his speech was just off the charts. I was actually crying when he was giving his speech. It was so moving. And our president got up and apologized for America, which I believe is the greatest country on earth. But there\u2019s nothing wrong with being great. But that\u2019s not what we\u2019re hearing coming out of Washington.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I can\u2019t emphasize this enough. In the world of Barack Obama the things that made us great are unjust and immoral and are examples of imperialism. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: True.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Do you realize, look at what he said to the United Nations. &#8216;To those of you that think my country can\u2019t change I ask you simply look at the last eight months.\u2019 I mean, that is a dangerous &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I know.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: &#8212; dangerous self-absorption.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I know. You know, and I have a grandson that\u2019s got to go. You know, I have a vested interest in this. Which I always have had, but it\u2019s very personal now. So I just hope he makes the right decision.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You know what, I understand you\u2019re saying it\u2019s personal but for all of us, it is. This is our country.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Exactly.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: It\u2019s your son, but your son\u2019s ours when &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: &#8212; your son goes to battle.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Exactly.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Everybody\u2019s son is ours.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: And I have met so many at his graduation from basic training. He just went through Air Assault School. I\u2019ve met so many young men that want to do what they\u2019re doing.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: They all do. They volunteer.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: For me, enrollment is like&#8230; You know, that would be the last thing that I would want to do. But I just am so thankful for young men and women who want to do this.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: So are we all, and that\u2019s why we get angry, upset, when we see them be undercut. And remember, this is not new. For the last five years, Obama and his party single-handedly fought for their defeat in Iraq. They single-handedly fought for it, tried to demoralize the troops, excused them of rape and murder with no evidence whatsoever. In the world of Barack Obama, the United States is the problem. He, in his warped ego, is the solution. And that\u2019s undeniable, and that\u2019s where we are. That\u2019s who we elected. God bless, Sarah. I\u2019m confident that America has not changed as Obama believes it has or wants to make it change, and that this can be beat back. If I didn\u2019t think that, I\u2019d chuck it. And I\u2019d spend the rest of my days making sure the last check I wrote bounced. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Here it is. It was from July 29th of this year. Obama was giving a TV interview with ABC News, and here\u2019s the ABC News report: &#8221;Obama: &#8216;Victory\u2019 Not Necessarily Goal in Afghanistan\u2019 &#8212; President Obama has put securing Afghanistan near the top of his foreign policy agenda, but &#8216;victory\u2019 in the war-torn country isn\u2019t necessarily the United States\u2019 goal, he said Thursday in a TV interview. &#8216;I\u2019m always worried about using the word &#8216;victory,\u2019 because, you know, it invokes this notion of Emperor Hirohito coming down and signing a surrender to MacArthur,\u2019 Obama told ABC News. &#8216;We\u2019re not dealing with nation states at this point. We\u2019re concerned with al-Qaeda and the Taliban, al-Qaeda\u2019s allies,\u2019 he said. &#8216;So when you have a non-state actor, a shadowy operation like al-Qaeda, our goal is to make sure they can\u2019t attack the United States.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t know that victory is what we\u2019re looking for there, and yet July 15th of 2008, Associated Press, &#8216;Contending that the US is not pursuing a sound strategy for keeping Americans safe, Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama said Tuesday that fighting al-Qaida and the Taliban in Afghanistan would be his top priority after ending the war in Iraq. &#8216;This is a war that we have to win,\u2019 Obama said in remarks prepared for delivery at the International Trade Center in Washington.\u2019 So July 15th, 2008, this is a war we have to win. July 29th, 2009, &#8216;I\u2019m always worried about using the word &#8216;victory\u2019 because, you know, it invokes this notion of Emperor Hirohito coming down and signing a &#8211;&#8216; I don\u2019t think it was Emperor Hirohito, was it? Anyway, just more evidence Obama talked one way during the campaign and it was not true. He is governing as who he really is. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCIRPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I want you to hear this before we go to the break. ABC\u2019s Nightline, July 23rd, 2009, Terry Moran asked Obama, &#8216;Define victory in Afghanistan, or maybe that\u2019s not the right word.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>OBAMA: I\u2019m always, you know, worried about using the word &#8216;victory\u2019 because, you know, it evokes this notion of Emperor Hirohito coming down and signing a surrender to MacArthur. You know, we\u2019re not dealing with nation states at this point. We\u2019re concerned with al-Qaeda and the Taliban.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: All right, that\u2019s it. That sets it up. I don\u2019t want to hear him mispronounce &#8216;Taliban.\u2019 Those words there: &#8216;Victory, I\u2019m always worried about using the word &#8216;victory\u2019.\u2019 And besides, I was right, Hirohito did not come down from the hills and sign the surrender papers. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Karen in western Michigan, welcome to the EIB Network. Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Thank you, Rush.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yes?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I am a mother of a soldier who deployed to Afghanistan the end of July, the Fifth Brigade\u2019s 2nd Infantry Division, and I thank you for all the good comments you\u2019ve been making today about the policy of Barack Obama in the Mideast and throughout the world. I had one more point that concerns me, and that is that Iranian missiles are able to reach our bases in Afghanistan and Iraq, and I\u2019m concerned for my son and the other soldiers.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yes. Ours is a world governed by the aggressive use of force. You are now, I don\u2019t know, the third or fourth call from a parent of a member of the US military. And I totally (sigh) totally understand the emotion you have about this. This is really unprecedented. I think the closest we could probably come to this was the latter stages of the Vietnam War &#8212; and then, of course, we had the draft. These people are all volunteering. Speaking of the draft, isn\u2019t it about time for that? I mean, you know, Charlie Rangel was always trying to embarrass President Bush by suggesting we needed a draft. (interruption) Yeah. I know Chuck Rangel is busy trying to find more millions of hidden dollars he hasn\u2019t reported to the IRS.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Do you people remember all during the war in Iraq&#8230;? Do you remember the State-Controlled Media, the Drive-Bys and the Democrats all complaining that they didn\u2019t have the right body armor and the Humvees were not armored properly? Remember all of the unmitigated hell that George Bush got from the Democrats in the media that he didn\u2019t care about the soldiers. And now we have a president who cannot decide even if he wants to win a war in Afghanistan. Now, which is more dangerous? One could be fixed, and it was. The other is a personality flaw that is unfixable and deadly &#8212; and that would be Obama. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Candace in Clarksville, Tennessee, glad you called, great to have you here. Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Mega mega dittos, Rush.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I am concerned because my husband is in the military and he will be deploying next spring for the third time. I want the president to be concerned enough about the war to talk to his commanders more than once in 70 days. And what is he doing, Rush? He\u2019s trying to make sure that the Olympics are going to be in Chicago in 2016. And all I have to say to any liberals listening out there is that Iran did not test fire any missiles while Bush was in office because Bush practiced peace through strength. And this stuff has me scared, Rush, it really does.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125111.Par.57631.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"195\" class=\"alignright\"\/>RUSH: By the way, do you know it\u2019s not a coincidence that today is the day the Iranians fired the nukes. It\u2019s Yom Kippur, a Jewish holiday.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Okay.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: And those missiles and their test firing are among other things to determine how far along they are at being able to target those missiles at Israel. So it\u2019s not an accident. That\u2019s a very good observation. They didn\u2019t launch any of this stuff during the Bush years. The Norks did, but the Iranians didn\u2019t. Do you remember what Biden said during the campaign? (paraphrasing) &#8216;We\u2019re going to be tested, Obama is going to be tested, Barack is going to be tested, the first six months going to be tested, and we\u2019re going to have a real problem on our hands, and you\u2019re not going to understand, you\u2019re not going to appreciate our response to it, and we\u2019re begging you to hang in with us.\u2019 Do you remember him saying that? <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes, I do.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, I don\u2019t know if this is it or if it\u2019s yet to come. But we\u2019ve got a pretty good idea why Biden thinks we\u2019re not going to hang in with him. More and more people like you, you\u2019re the fourth or fifth call now since last week about this, military member family worried about the commitment of the commander-in-chief when your husband or son or daughter is heading off to the theater of battle. Let me ask you a question. Is your real concern, is your concern really based on whether or not this president will defend the country or will give your husband in this case all the tools necessary to win?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I\u2019m concerned on both. I want him to give the commanders the tools necessary that they need to win this war, and Obama has shown no interest whatsoever in winning this war. I mean I just want them to have the support that they need over there. I really do. I want them to win. I want them to fight to win, and I have no confidence in this administration, I\u2019m sorry, I just don\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Amen. Join the club. More and more people have that same sentiment. It\u2019s a dawn of reality coming up and more and more people are glaring at it, not happy with what they see. <\/p>\n<p>David in St. Louis, glad you called. Welcome to the EIB Network.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Thank you, first-time caller. I got a question for you. I\u2019m a union guy from St. Louis, been a military reservist for over 20 years, son on active duty, another son getting ready to go into the Army. I pop open my St. Louis Post-Dispatch this weekend and what do I read? A $20 million earmark for the Kennedy Institute out of a $360 billion defense budget that was snuck in there by Senator John Kerry. Has anybody beside myself called and been alarmed by this idea?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I\u2019m glad you reminded me. I saw that over the weekend, or maybe it was today I looked at it. Yeah, $20 million in there for a memorial, in essence, to Teddy Kennedy in the defense bill, defense appropriations bill.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yeah, they say it\u2019s going to be for the library to house the papers for a billionaire family and they say this will only cover 40% of the institute\u2019s initial fundraising.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, we gotta have some sympathy for the Kennedys. They may be a billionaire family but they got about 1,500 sponges soaking it up who still haven\u2019t figured out how to get a real job.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Another question for you.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Did you see 60 Minutes last night?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah, I saw the audio. I don\u2019t watch the show anymore. It\u2019s called the National Football League on Sundays for me.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, another thing that caught my attention as a military family &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Quickly, very quickly.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Okay, the general said he\u2019s only talked to the president one time since he\u2019s been in office. To me that\u2019s stunning.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yep, one time in 70 days. One time. With all the high-tech Obama has, only one time. But you gotta understand, now, he\u2019s gotta go get the Olympics for Chicago in 2016, he\u2019s been talking to Mayor Daley a lot, and Obama has his priorities, people need to understand.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: March of 2008, then we\u2019ll get to the phones.
