RUSH: Ladies and gentlemen, I, your host, have hijacked medicine. I, your irrelevant, without any power whatsoever, according to all of the wizards of smart in the State-Controlled Media, have hijacked medicine. This report from this afternoon on PMSNBC, Dr. Nancy Snyderman said this about an upcoming segment while showing video of me 85 pounds ago.<\/p>\n

SNYDERMAN: Why does one popular radio talk show host not want to get his flu shot? When did medicine get hijacked by politics?<\/p>\n

RUSH: (laughing) This whole swine flu thing is political, Dr. Snyderman. Michael Fumento in the New York Post today confirming my instincts: there is no epidemic, except there is every year, there\u2019s a flu epidemic every year but there is no swine flu. The epidemic is in the media. Dr. Snyderman, don\u2019t you realize that every segment you do on your show is political, including pushing the notion on that it is none your business, by the way, that people must get a flu shot? Here is how her report went reporting on me hijacking medicine.<\/p>\n

SNYDERMAN: Rush Limbaugh\u2019s take on the H1N1 vaccine.<\/p>\n

RUSH ARCHIVE: Now you\u2019ve got Kathleen Sebelius saying you must take the pig flu vaccine. You must take it. Screw you, Ms. Sebelius! I\u2019m not going to take it precisely because you\u2019re now telling me I must.<\/p>\n

SNYDERMAN: Outrageous. If I could make the spin higher than five I would but my thermometer would break. Totally crazy. Are you not going to put on your seatbelt? Are you not going to take your anti-hypertensives? Are you not going to do what people suggest for you to do just to take care of yourself, Mr. Limbaugh? This is not a conspiracy. These are doctors and scientists who donated hours of their lives, dedicated themselves trying to make people like you well. It\u2019s a vaccine that works. What silliness. And my concern is that people listen to you and won\u2019t get well.<\/p>\n

RUSH: No, they\u2019ll stay well. They won\u2019t get sick. People like you and your network are polluting this country with drivel and bilge. People like you are scaring the hell out of people needlessly each and every day. There are medical experts who will not take the vaccine. But that\u2019s not the point. Mine was not a medical point, Dr. Snyderman. Mine was rooted in liberty and freedom. Kathleen Sebelius is not a doctor. And this kid video coming up on CNN, you know how the thing starts? They do the Sebelius cough into the forearm. (coughing) That\u2019s how they start this thing. She\u2019s not a doctor, and she\u2019s telling me I must when there\u2019s no law requiring me to do it? We have seat belt laws. We have helmet laws. But we don\u2019t have a pig flu law&hellip; yet. Outrageous? Silly? No, I\u2019m just independently minded. I am not a conformist, and I do not respond to media inspired plagues or panics. And besides, Ms. Snyderman, consult your own network. I don\u2019t have any power, nobody listens to me, the Republicans don\u2019t listen to me, my audience, they listen, but they don\u2019t do what I say. Your network has been reporting this for two weeks now. <\/p>\n

I\u2019m going to grab a phone call, otherwise — this stack is depressing me. And I still gotta do the stupid kid song. That\u2019s still coming up. I delayed that \u2019til the second hour so I wouldn\u2019t destroy the whole show, at least my mood. Jeez. Kid song. By the way, the kid song was Monday, but it happened on CNN. It took two days for people to discover it. Who wants to go first? Donna in Ft. Lauderdale, I\u2019m glad you called. Welcome to the EIB Network.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hi, Rush. Thanks for taking my call. I\u2019m one of your phantom listeners, I guess, so I\u2019m a phantom caller.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Phantom caller, and by the way, what are you going to do? Are you going to take the pig flu vaccine, or not?<\/p>\n

CALLER: No, and I have a nine-year-old son who will not take it as well.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, is that because of me?<\/p>\n

CALLER: No. I actually have a brain, so I kind of made the decision on my own.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, that would put you a couple steps ahead of Dr. Snyderman. She has a brain, but it\u2019s numbed.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, maybe you should get an MRI to confirm that.<\/p>\n

RUSH: I\u2019m not paying for it.<\/p>\n

CALLER: No, no. Obamacare will. But I called to talk to you about the one sector in the economy creating jobs last week, we had that dismal 263,000 job losses and that\u2019s health care, and about the 25% cut to physicians in the Senate Finance Committee bill that had been proposed, that had been scored by the CBO and I wanted to bring up a point about Adam Smith\u2019s invisible hand in capitalism. Those physicians, the best and the brightest, are going to pack up their bags and they\u2019re going to move to Costa Rica, to India, to wherever it is where we have this growing trend toward medical tourism.<\/p>\n

RUSH: I have a story here that\u2019s right up the ally of your comment and it\u2019s from all places, CNN. So I know nobody has seen this yet, but I\u2019m surprised it made it on the CNN website. The headline: ‘Doctors Make More Cash Selling Clothes on eBay.\u2019 The highlights of this story, there\u2019s an Iowa doctor, started a second career selling clothes on eBay while she was home with her twins. Last year she made more money online, $120,000, than in her medical practice. Now how sad is that? This is Dr. Jennifer Lickteig. She examines patients at the Linn Community Care Health Center in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. ‘Lickteig runs a clothing store on eBay, where she\u2019s a ‘Gold PowerSeller,\u2019 ranking among the top 1&frac12; percent of merchants on the online marketplace. The 35-year-old family practitioner says she earned $120,000 last year on eBay, more than she did practicing medicine.\u2019<\/p>\n

CALLER: So where is that going to leave us? Unless you can, of course, afford to pay for the best care, who exactly will be treating us when we show up at the emergency room or at our primary care physician\u2019s office? Who\u2019s going to be left practicing medicine in this country once Obamacare takes over? <\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, I know of one doctor that will always be around, and that will be Dr. Snyderman. I think Dr. Snyderman\u2019s client list will approach the number of people standing outside Cobo Hall in Detroit looking for Obama money.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: I know what Dr. Snyderman\u2019s problem is. I had this in the stack. I wasn\u2019t going to use it \u2019cause it doesn\u2019t fit, but it does now. This is Daily Mail, UK: ‘Taking the Birth Control Pill for the Past 40 Years Has Put Women Off of Masculine Men.\u2019 You compare the Kirk Douglases and all those guys from back then and look at the Hollywood stars today, they\u2019re a bunch of girlie wusses, and it\u2019s the pill that makes women like girlie men. That\u2019s the theory and explains some of their thinking as well, Dr. Snyderman.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Susan in Fairfield, Connecticut. Thanks for waiting. You\u2019re next on the EIB Network. Hello.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hi, Rush.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Hi.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Very nice to talk to you.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Thank you very much.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I had an experience with the flu shot. This was in the year 2000, I was — I hate to give my age — I was 58 and I\u2019d never had a flu shot.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Why did you get one?<\/p>\n

CALLER: The doctor said, ‘How about a flu shot?\u2019<\/p>\n

RUSH: Were you visiting Dr. Snyderman?<\/p>\n

CALLER: No, I wasn\u2019t. (laughing) And I said to her, I had never had the flu and never had a flu shot, and, you know, didn\u2019t think I wanted one, but one of my kids was having a baby and I was like, oh, you know, you might to want help her, you might get it, blah, blah, blah. So I had the flu shot, and a couple of weeks later I\u2019m walking along and I got kind of a funny pain in my shoulder, strange place, and I, you know, ‘What is this? What is that?\u2019 Anyway, it developed into a very severe, couple of days later, chest pains, which started in the middle of the day one day, and by three o\u2019clock the next morning I was in the emergency room. And the people there thought I was having a heart attack. <\/p>\n

RUSH: Did you have health insurance?<\/p>\n

CALLER: I did have health insurance from my husband\u2019s employer, very nice health insurance. But anyway, at any rate, they kept giving me nitroglycerin and whatever and I really thought if it was a heart attack I would be dead because this had been going on for a long time. And the cardiologist came in and eventually, you know, asked me some questions, did the stethoscope thing and took chest X-rays —<\/p>\n

RUSH: All right, so you told them you took a flu shot and then what happened?<\/p>\n

CALLER: No, I didn\u2019t tell him that because I didn\u2019t think of it at the time. But it turned out that it was diagnosed as pleurisy and I don\u2019t know if you\u2019ve ever known anyone who had pleurisy or any experience with it, it is awful. It knocks you out, I was sick for about, oh, I don\u2019t know — and I\u2019m relatively healthy person, but it got better, it went away and I looked it up, and it was strange because it said pleurisy is really something that you get after you have something else like people with tuberculosis get it —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Okay —<\/p>\n

CALLER: It\u2019s not something that you just catch.<\/p>\n

RUSH: So how did the flu shot enter the diagnosis?<\/p>\n

CALLER: The flu shot entered the equation when I was so curious as to how I could have gotten it so I read about it —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Most women would blame their husbands. <\/p>\n

CALLER: I did not do that. (laughing) But, anyway, I read about it, it\u2019s an inflammation of the sac around your lungs and around your heart —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Right, right, right. But time is dwindling, what about the flu shot?<\/p>\n

CALLER: I eventually talked to a person, a pediatrician who was a friend of mine and told her the whole story, and I —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Did she want to take your tonsils out?<\/p>\n

CALLER: (laughing) No, she wanted to cut off my foot, though.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Obama told me they do that.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh, it\u2019s so awful. I\u2019m so glad I listen to you, and I only started after this election. But anyway, she —<\/p>\n

RUSH: We\u2019re finally going to get to this flu shot angle, folks, hang in there. Just wait for it, it\u2019s coming.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I said, ‘Could it have been anything to do with the flu shot?\u2019 and she said, ‘Yes, pleurisy is a side effect of the flu shot or can be a side effect.\u2019<\/p>\n

RUSH: But this wasn\u2019t even H1N1 back in 2000.<\/p>\n

CALLER: No, no, just the regular —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Bird flu or whatever, yeah, well, I\u2019ve never taken the flu shot.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Don\u2019t do it.<\/p>\n

RUSH: I\u2019ve never had a doctor suggest it. I\u2019ve had busybody citizens and friends who want to run my life tell me I should do it but I\u2019ve never had a doctor, they left it up to me. I know I\u2019ve never had one, but I know a lot of people that do routinely, and I think a lot of people suffer mild symptoms because that\u2019s how you are inoculated from it, isn\u2019t it? But you\u2019re the first person I\u2019ve heard contracting pleurisy from a flu shot. Keep this call on file, Mike, for the next time Dr. Snyderman launches on me. I\u2019ve been talking about this all hour and people may not have heard what Dr. Snyderman said, so we\u2019ll have that at the top of the next hour. Gotta take a quick time-out, thanks Susan, and, by the way, I\u2019m in Fairfield, Connecticut, every summer. I play golf up there at the country club of Fairfield, and this is where AIG people bonus live, where ACORN went up and protested on their front lawns. It\u2019s a nice community, but they\u2019ve run out of money and can\u2019t fix their potholes anymore, so you don\u2019t go up there with a nice car.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Let\u2019s go back to our archives from earlier in today\u2019s program. During our program at 12 noon on PMSNBC, Dr. Nancy Snyderman promo\u2019d an upcoming segment by saying this.<\/p>\n

SNYDERMAN: Why does one popular radio talk show host not want to get his flu shot? When did medicine get hijacked by politics?<\/p>\n

RUSH: When did medicine get hijacked by politics? What the hell is national health care being put together by a bunch of lawyer doofus politicians? When did medicine get hijacked by politics? Have you heard of the people you vote for, Dr. Snyderman? The Democrat Party. When did medicine get hijacked by politics? No, in her warped worldview, I, El Rushbo, your devoted host, have hijacked medicine by politicizing my announced refusal to follow the command of the Health and Human Services Secretary, Kathleen Sebelius. This is the segment from Dr. Snyderman. <\/p>\n

SNYDERMAN: Rush Limbaugh\u2019s take on the H1N1 vaccine.<\/p>\n

RUSH ARCHIVE: Now you\u2019ve got Kathleen Sebelius saying you must take the pig flu vaccine. You must take it. Screw you, Ms. Sebelius! I\u2019m not going to take it precisely because you\u2019re now telling me I must.<\/p>\n

SNYDERMAN: Outrageous. If I could make the spin higher than five I would but my thermometer would break. Totally crazy. Are you not going to put on your seat belt? Are you not going to take your anti-hypertensives? Are you not going to do what people suggest for you to do just to take care of yourself, Mr. Limbaugh? This is not a conspiracy. These are doctors and scientists who donated hours of their lives, dedicated themselves to trying to make people like you well. It\u2019s a vaccine that works. What silliness. And my concern is that people listen to you and won\u2019t get well.<\/p>\n

RUSH: So you people are going to listen to me and say, ‘I\u2019m not going to take the swine flu vaccine,\u2019 and you\u2019re going to get sick and it\u2019s all my fault. That\u2019s exactly how it works. Now, I\u2019ve never had a doctor suggest I get a flu shot. Never had one suggest it, I\u2019ve never had one. But this notion that there are doctors and scientists who donated hours of their lives. Donated my rear end. They\u2019re about to donate under Obamacare, but they\u2019re not donating yet, Dr. Snyderman. So let\u2019s go to some interesting audio, shall we, from a doctor, Dr. Kent Holtorf from September 2009. He\u2019s on Studio B Fox News Channel, cohost Gregg Jarrett interviewed the infectious disease expert Dr. Kent Holtorf. Jarrett says, ‘Doctor, what do you think of the pig flu vaccination?\u2019<\/p>\n

HOLTORF: I have more concern about the vaccine than I do about the swine flu. It\u2019s been rushed to market. There are high levels of adjuncts, which make it more potent. It\u2019s kind of an unrefined method that they used. They had to use high levels of these adjuncts, including —<\/p>\n

JARRETT: Thimerosal, it\u2019s an antiseptic preservative. And hasn\u2019t that been linked in some cases to autism?<\/p>\n

HOLTORF: It has. And it\u2019s been shown to cause autism in children with mitochondrial dysfunction —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Holy cow.<\/p>\n

HOLTORF: — and the problem is you don\u2019t know if your child has mitochondrial dysfunction. I also worry about children, pregnant women, chronic neurological illnesses, and chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia. I\u2019ve been people been devastated by these vaccines. <\/p>\n

JARRETT: All right. Would you give it to your kids?<\/p>\n

HOLTORF: I definitely would not.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, what are we to do? What are we to do? Listen to me and Dr. Holtorf or Dr. Snyderman? What a dilemma. What would you do, Snerdley, in this case? If I heard this right, I\u2019d talk to my doctor, too. I\u2019d ask my doctor, ‘I heard an infectious disease expert say that there is an antiseptic preservative that\u2019s been linked to autism in this vaccine. Is that true? If my kid has mitochondrial dysfunction and I give the kid the vaccine, could they get autism?\u2019 Dr. Snyderman, ‘This is not a conspiracy. These are doctors and scientists donating hours of their lives, dedicating themselves to try to make people like you well, Mr. Limbaugh. It\u2019s a vaccine that works, what silliness.\u2019 The real point again, once again, Dr. Snyderman, mine was not a medical reaction to Kathleen Sebelius. It was a political reaction. <\/p>\n

I have not reached the point, like apparently you have, Dr. Snyderman, where you\u2019re just a mind-numbed robot and a sheep and some government official, who\u2019s a dunce to boot, issues a demand with no constitutional authority, there is no law, she cannot make me take this. That\u2019s what I react to. That\u2019s what I\u2019m objecting to. Well, you gotta understand, Snerdley. Snerdley is blowing his gasket in there. ‘You\u2019re already well. What does she mean? What does she mean, people won\u2019t get well?\u2019 She\u2019s assuming everybody already is sick, I guess, if she meant to say what she said. But you know what it reminds me of? This was during the Clinton years, I think it was the Clinton years, might have been Bush 41 years. I know it was during this show, which started 1988. There was a town hall meeting somewhere in the Midwest, and the people that showed up were raucous and unruly, and CNN was the network televising the thing and Bernard Shaw was trying to quiet the crowd. ‘Wait for the officials,\u2019 he said, meaning whoever from the government was showing up to conduct this particular town hall. I don\u2019t even remember what it was about. ‘Wait for the officials.\u2019 <\/p>\n

And I\u2019m saying, ‘Why are the officials god-like to you, Bernard? Just because they\u2019re in government, they are infallible and they have to be listened to all the time? They are never wrong? Or is it that you just are a total authoritarian, and you will bow down to the authority of anybody who is in government who attempts to exert any totalitarian control over people?\u2019 And I\u2019m thinking the same thing here with Nancy Snyderman and everybody else, Kathleen Sebelius. Kathleen Sebelius, who taught us how to sneeze properly into our freaking arms and sleeves, is now saying we must take this thing? Who the hell are you to tell us we must do anything? Have you heard of the concept of liberty and freedom? ‘But Mr. Limbaugh, Mr. Limbaugh, they\u2019re only doing it for your own good, they\u2019re only trying to protect from you getting the swine flu, the pig flu and everything else flu.\u2019 No, they\u2019re not doing it for our own good. That\u2019s where you New Castrati guys don\u2019t get it. They think we\u2019re incapable of doing things for ourselves. They are the biggest screw-ups on the face of the earth. They can\u2019t run anything; they can\u2019t turn a profit; they print money; they lose money; they\u2019re destroying the private sector and we gotta listen to them as though they tell us, ‘You don\u2019t know what\u2019s good for you.\u2019 And I guess Dr. Snyderman is of that view. <\/p>\n

We don\u2019t know what\u2019s good for us. Kathleen Sebelius knows what\u2019s good for us. Doctors, scientists donated hours of their lives. I really want to see the proof of that. I want to see all these donations of time to come up with the pig flu vaccine. As I say, the only donations that doctors are going to be making will come after Obama\u2019s health care is enacted \u2019cause he\u2019s not going to pay \u2019em. He\u2019s going to reduce their payments, he\u2019s going to reduce Medicare expenses which he claimed he\u2019s not going to do. It\u2019s a disaster. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
