RUSH: Here\u2019s the prediction that I made on this program yesterday about the president.<\/line><\/line>RUSH ARCHIVE: When Obama\u2019s in the White House, oh, it\u2019s understandable that we\u2019ve got intel that may not be quite up to snuff. Oh, it\u2019s so sad. We\u2019re so sorry. (crying) they\u2019re so overworked and they have such a vast bureaucracy, and there\u2019s an overwhelming flow of information, and they\u2019re just under utter pressure. They\u2019re hampered. People ask me, ‘Why is Obama being so blunt here? Why is he saying it\u2019s a second strike and there aren\u2019t going to be three strikes, and why is he saying that this is a screw up?\u2019 Look, here\u2019s your answer. ‘Cause he can once again dump on Bush, and the Drive-By State-Controlled World Media is helping right along. (imitating media) ‘President Obama has now discovered that he has inherited an intelligence community which is bloated, bureaucratic, and even with the best of intentions has become so large. It\u2019s very hard to put together the pieces.\u2019<\/line><\/p>\n

RUSH: And, true to form, the State-Controlled Media pushes the idea this was Bush\u2019s fault, Obama saddled with a bureaucracy left over from Bush. This is a montage of a bunch of them.<\/p>\n

DEFAZIO: We set up the terrorist information center to overcome the failures of the Bush\/Cheney administration. <\/p>\n

SHRUM: These procedures were put in place by the Bush administration.<\/p>\n

COOPER: The problems that existed now which are, the president says he\u2019s trying to fix today, did they exist years ago and we just didn\u2019t know about them?<\/p>\n

GERGEN: We\u2019ve been hearing from the government that they\u2019re going to close these gaps now for over eight years.<\/p>\n

OLBERMANN: Bush\u2019s reforms of the intelligence system might not have changed things for the better.<\/p>\n

RICE: The Bush team has made it much worse.<\/p>\n

SHUSTER: The Bush administration let guys go from Guantanamo. These were the guys who helped Abdulmutallab in Yemen.<\/p>\n

PAGE: Certainly things that the Bush administration did are affecting what\u2019s happening now.<\/p>\n

FUENTES: Systems have been put in place in the previous administration.<\/p>\n

MACCALLUM: This is pretty much a holdover from the previous administration.<\/p>\n

MCMAHON: Let\u2019s not lay this at the feet of a guy who\u2019s been there for 10 months and not at the feet of the people who built this security apparatus. It was Bush bureaucrats.<\/p>\n

TUCKER: We saw a lot of belligerence from Dick Cheney. We saw a lot of swagger from George Bush. Where did that get us?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Unbelievable. Unbelievable. I want to go back to one line here, David Shuster, one of the hapless, genuinely ignorant schlubs over at MSNBC. He said, ‘The Bush administration let guys go from Guantanamo. These were the guys who helped Abdulmutallab in Yemen.\u2019 Yeah, I can\u2019t deny Bush let \u2019em go. But, Mr. Shuster, do you know why? People like you were demanding it! The ACLU and a bunch of lawyers and a bunch of people in Congress, because was it not fair to hold these people who hadn\u2019t done anything. You\u2019re the ones who wanted them released from the damn place. You\u2019re the ones who want to close the place down and you turn around now and blame Bush? It\u2019s just breathtaking to behold all of this. But we\u2019re on the case here, folks, and they no longer, ever again get away with this combination of ignorance, bias, prejudice, propaganda, and destruction.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Look, I don\u2019t want to hear ‘Bush did it\u2019 from you liberals. I don\u2019t want to hear the first thing about it. George Bush was dragged kicking and screaming into creating a brand-new bureaucracy: Homeland Security. We already had a Homeland Security department: 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. The White House. That\u2019s where Homeland Security is. Bush got dragged kicking and screaming. He didn\u2019t want to release anybody from Guantanamo Bay. For crying out loud, you people, Barack Obama wants to investigate the CIA over how they interrogated the mastermind of the 9\/11 attacks! He wants them prosecuted. Barack Obama and Eric Holder want Bush and Cheney to face war crimes charges by international courts. That\u2019s what the public trial of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed is all about. <\/p>\n

They want this country ripped to shreds. They\u2019re investigating the CIA. They\u2019re going to prosecute CIA agents and name their names over how they interrogated. But yet he doesn\u2019t want to investigate the CIA or anybody else for lapses with the underwear bomber or any of the other lapses of late? ‘Oh, no, no, no. It was a systemic failure. The buck stops with me. It\u2019s never going to happen again,\u2019 blah, blah, blah. By the way, how\u2019s that investigation going on the CIA agents who waterboarded KSM? How is that going? I want those guys named and I want them behind bars. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: A couple more things here on this brave speech yesterday by the president. The media is twisting and turning, doing exactly as I predicted: Blaming everything here on Bush, systems that Bush and Cheney put into place. ‘It can\u2019t be our new young president. He\u2019s only been there ten months!\u2019 Remember, though, Bush had been there ten months and they tried to blame him for 9\/11. At any rate, there\u2019s a story here at Politico.com from yesterday: ‘White House Security Report was Further Redacted Before Release.\u2019 Yeah, it was. ‘He [an administration official] said it was further redacted over concerns that any information divulged not reveal sources and methods. ‘One has to be extremely careful what is made public. It can provide knowledge to your enemies.” Now, I don\u2019t think they care about that. You know why? There\u2019s a very simple reason why they don\u2019t care about that. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s this upcoming show trial in New York City of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and his henchmen, that\u2019s budgeted $206 million a year. New York wants the feds to pay them $206 million a year for security for that trial. A year! How long does that tell you it\u2019s going to go on? If we are really worried about not making public information that will give knowledge to our enemies then why in the name of hell are we going to conduct a public show trial of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and give him a forum to rip up and beat up this country and make speeches? By the way, discovery? He\u2019s going to be able to see all the evidence that we\u2019ve collected? It\u2019s an absolute disaster. And if we\u2019re so concerned about not divulging sources and methods, then why the hell did the State Department announce that they screwed up identifying Abdul Mutallab because his name was misspelled in their database and so he didn\u2019t show up as a terrorist? <\/p>\n

By admitting that all we gotta do now is tell terrorists to add a couple vowels to their names when they register and then use their real names when they show up and they won\u2019t show up on the list. So I don\u2019t believe this for a moment: ‘One has to be extremely careful what\u2019s made public. It can provide knowledge to your enemies.\u2019 Something in that report was going to be ‘shocking\u2019 and nothing was. Whatever it was was redacted and it was redacted I think not because it was shocking, but because it was going to be harmful to somebody, and I think that\u2019s why it was redacted. Now, let\u2019s listen to the Drive-Bys in the State-Controlled Media last night. This is a montage of Diane Sawyer, George Stephanopoulos, David ‘Rodham\u2019 Gergen, Bob Shrum and Pat Buchanan all talking about Obama and his remarks on the Fruit of Kaboom Bomber.<\/p>\n

SAWYER: ‘The buck stops here.\u2019 It\u2019s an echo of another young president at another time.<\/p>\n

STEPHANOPOULOS: …John F. Kennedy after the Bay of Pigs. The president took responsibility.<\/p>\n

GERGEN: …take personal responsibility for this just as John F. Kennedy did after the Bay of Pigs.<\/p>\n

BUCHANAN: Remember Jack Kennedy after the Bay of Pigs…<\/p>\n

SHRUM: Presidents who are willing to do this — JFK! — presidents who are willing to say this sort of thing when something bad happens, the country tends to respond.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Just amazing. (chuckling) They all say the same thing, and they all compare him to JFK when it was Harry Truman who said it! But they don\u2019t want to compare him to Truman because Truman nuked the Japanese. And why compare him to JFK? The Bay of Pigs was an absolute disaster. It was a flop. By the way, speaking of the Bay of Pigs and Cuba, I have a story down in the stack here. Do you know that doctors are defecting from Cuba? Doctors are defecting from the best health care system in the world, folks. That\u2019s what the American left tells us, and that\u2019s what Hollywood tells you. ‘Oh, yeah, the health care down there is better than anybody else\u2019s.\u2019 They never send their kids down there, they never go for health treatment themselves, but it\u2019s the best health care in the world because it doesn\u2019t cost anybody anything. Ahem! So doctors are defecting from the best health care system in the world. Last night on the Situation Room Wolf Blitzer spoke with the former Clinton advisor David ‘Rodham\u2019 Gergen who… David ‘Rodham\u2019 Gergen personifies conventional wisdom in Washington. If you want to know what everybody else is thinking, you listen to David Gergen. If you want to know what everybody\u2019s similar take is on anything that happens in that town, you listen to David ‘Rodham\u2019 Gergen. So Blitzer asked David ‘Rodham\u2019 Gergen about Obama and his remarks on the attempted Christmas Day attacks. David Gergen served four presidents. ‘What do you think, David? What do you think of what he said?\u2019<\/p>\n

GERGEN: It\u2019s going to take a while to, uh, digest this one, Wolf. It was, uh, complex. I think the president taking personal responsibility, ‘the buck stops here,\u2019 was, uh, forthright and good. Welcome. I think it was harder to understand the intelligence failures, and General Jones spoke that we would have a certain shock about what went wrong. I thought what he described about what — what happened and what went wrong in intelligence was sort of — had sort of a bureaucratic language to it that was hard to penetrate what he is really saying here about what went wrong and therefore it\u2019s a little hard to understand what he\u2019s doing that\u2019s gonna correct it, especially on the intelligence side. I thought it was clearer about the screening.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Unlike JFK, it sounds like David ‘Rodham\u2019 Gergen had no idea what Obama was saying. And this is his initial response. This is initial response before he threw in the JFK reference. Somebody sent the memo out ‘It\u2019s JFK! JFK! JFK!\u2019 and all the Drive-Bys got it. They all started repeating it, ‘JFK! JFK! JFK!\u2019 But he made this comment before the JFK memo went out, and his initial response tells you all you need to know. He has no idea what Obama is talking about. ‘It was complex.\u2019 It\u2019s complex. Of course everything intellectuals say is complex and we\u2019re not meant to really understand what they say. We\u2019re supposed to just be in awe. It\u2019s not what they say; it\u2019s how they say it. Because, you know, they\u2019re so much smarter than we are. They have to speak this way. In other words, if we really know what they were saying we couldn\u2019t handle it anyway. I mean, the shock and awe to our own brains about how insignificant we are would send us into suicidal notions. <\/p>\n

We shouldn\u2019t even try to understand. We\u2019re not capable of it, see? That\u2019s the way it goes. Now, yesterday afternoon on this show… You know, Cookie, I\u2019m actually seriously thinking here of no more sound bites from MSNBC. I mean it\u2019s not even worth it. It\u2019s not worth giving these people the time, and it\u2019s not even funny anymore, unless it\u2019s genuinely funny. But this is the height of irresponsibility and journalistic malpractice. The latest example here is Norah O\u2019Donnell and David Shuster. This is a guy who blamed Bush for letting people out of Guantanamo Bay to go to Yemen and come back and commit terrorist acts. (snorts) After David Shuster and his crowd demanding the place be closed and that those poor terrorists be released, ‘Because nobody has charged them with anything and they\u2019re probably innocent young children. Bush and Cheney, they just put them in there to be mean. They don\u2019t have any evidence so we gotta let them go. This is trashing America\u2019s values and making the world hate us,\u2019 blah, blah, blah, blah. Now you turn around and blame Bush for letting people out of there? Anyway, David Shuster says to Norah O\u2019Donnell, ‘Norah, as far as the politics of the policy of Obama\u2019s speech, what\u2019s your reaction?\u2019<\/p>\n

O\u2019DONNELL: The president said, ‘This is not a time for partisanship, this is a time for citizenship,\u2019 and this baloney, essentially, he said about this finger pointing and saying we\u2019re not at war is not appropriate when the enemy is who it is and is trying to, uh, kill Americans. I think that was a very strong message and I think it was implicitly a very strong push-back, uh, to the former vice president, Dick Cheney, who has been the most vociferous critic of this president.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Ohhhh, that\u2019s why she\u2019s squealing with delight! Norah O\u2019Donnell is squealing with delight as though Bill Clinton had walked in the room and undressed. ‘Oh, he blamed Cheney!\u2019 She\u2019s so excited, it was near orgasmic on MSNBC. She blamed Cheney. He obviously was blaming Cheney. ‘Not a time for partisanship, a time for citizenship.\u2019 No. It\u2019s a time for stepping up and accepting the constitutional role of commander-in-chief and protecting and defending the people of this country and the Constitution, none of which is happening right now. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Up first today from Sierra Vista, Arizona, Rich, nice to have you here, sir. Welcome to Open Line Friday.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Thanks, Rush. Dittos from the desert and quite an honor being first up today.<\/p>\n

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

CALLER: Hey, I\u2019m supposed to sarcastically thank you a little bit for ruining a little bit of our Hawaii vacation also. We were there at the same time.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Were you?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yes.<\/p>\n

RUSH: I\u2019m sorry about that.<\/p>\n

CALLER: We thought it was going to be Obama trashing our travel plans, but as soon as the word got out that you were in the hospital, I kind of glued to the Internet and the television trying to figure out what was going on, so —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, I appreciate that, but I\u2019m very sorry.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah. Well, I\u2019ll get over it. Hey, I\u2019ll tell you what, there was one thing I was shocked about with hearing Obama speak yesterday. I didn\u2019t hear any will in his words whatsoever. I was listening to how he was speaking, and I heard somebody that was beating on his chest and somebody that was maybe a little bit desperate because he\u2019s probably heard some of the initial reactions from the press on his additional reactions to this thing and he realized that he already has two strikes with Fort Hood and the panty bomber.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. There\u2019s three. There\u2019s the Army recruiter in Arkansas. There\u2019s the near-disaster at Fort Dix. New York just arrested a couple of guys today. I think that may be the FBI arrested a couple of guys today that they\u2019ve been surveilling for six months, that could be on orders from the White House to show tougheness here.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Sure.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Certainly been more than three strikes.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Sure but I\u2019m speaking specifically since he took office. You know, we had 9\/11 with Bush and that started the whole thing but nothing happened here in the states after that. This has all happened in the one year since he\u2019s actually taken office. And I think he sees the writing on the wall that he\u2019s either gotta do something to prove to the people that he can be the commander-in-chief or else the people are going to rise up against him and say, hey, screw you, we\u2019ve had enough of this. Your primary job is to protect us, not to take care of us, you know, out of your pocket.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, out of our pocket.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Okay, our pocket.<\/p>\n

RUSH: There was a masterful plot from Great Britain, Al-Qaeda terrorists were gonna blow up a bunch of airplanes en route from the UK to the United States. That plot was hatched, it was caught and observed and stopped by British authorities during the Bush administration, working with I think the FBI and probably the CIA. There were attempts made during the Bush administration. We don\u2019t know how many because you don\u2019t ever advertise the things you stop. Only your failures get noticed. But that one was a big one. Your point is well taken. This kind of stuff did not happen in eight years with George W. Bush. George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, say whatever you want, kept the people of this country safe. Great call. Great to hear from you, Rich. <\/p>\n

This is Jen in Detroit. Nice to have you on the EIB Network. Open Line Friday. Hi.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Thank you, Rush. Hi. I\u2019m so glad that you\u2019re doing well.<\/p>\n

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

CALLER: Well, it\u2019s just nice to talk to you, and my point is that, well, you know, I don\u2019t even listen to this person\u2019s speeches. I listen to him vicariously through the sound bites because I can\u2019t stand him, okay, I\u2019m talking about Obama.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Hm-hm.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Anyway, you know, this thing that he did yesterday, it was just more of his own garbage again, because I\u2019m bringing up the point you were saying about he finally said we were at war with Al-Qaeda. Well, you know what, he doesn\u2019t believe that because if he did, we would not be trying all these terrorists in the regular courts. We would be using the military courts.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Exactly right. Exactly right, especially the show trial of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed —<\/p>\n

CALLER: Amen.<\/p>\n

RUSH: — and his three henchmen. I mean, if we\u2019re really concerned about not divulging our intelligence methods and secrets and so forth, then there\u2019s no way we\u2019d be doing this trial. This trial is going to expose everything, and it is going to be the largest anti-American rant ever to take place on American soil in a courtroom for the longest sustained time. It\u2019s going to go on for years. And these people have to know that. They claim theory out for a conviction, and even if they don\u2019t get a conviction — by the way, in New York, after all this time has passed, you get a jury from the Upper West Side and down in the Village, and I can see finding two or three people who think the US made this happen. Look at how many idiots believed that there was a conspiracy theory that Bush knew and was involved in blowing up the twin towers! And a lot of people are in New York. You\u2019re not going to have trouble finding a jury that thinks these guys are the victims of an evil, imperialistic United States. At least a hung jury, anything\u2019s possible. That\u2019s why they said, ‘Even if that happens they\u2019re not being released.\u2019 So what are you putting them on trial for? This is an utter disaster. I cannot escape the conclusion that it\u2019s purposeful. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
