RUSH: ‘White House officials are retooling the administration\u2019s communications strategy to produce faster responses to political adversaries, a more disciplined focus on President Obama\u2019s call for ‘change\u2019 in Washington and an increasingly selective use of the president\u2019s time. The messaging adjustments are the result of an end-of-the-year analysis in which White House advisers said the president\u2019s communications team had not taken the initiative often enough and had allowed drawn-out debates in Congress, and relentless criticism by Republicans, to drown out his message.\u2019 Now, wait just a second. Recall, ladies and gentlemen, as you hear me explain this new strategy the White House owns the press, they own Congress, the Democrats own the White House, they won a majority of voters (unlike Clinton), they had tremendous approval numbers, and now all of a sudden it comes down that they\u2019re not getting their message out correctly? <\/p>\n

They are fooling themselves up there. They\u2019re lying to themselves. The message has gotten out plain as day. This is the one service that we have performed admirably among many others here at the EIB Network. Their message has gotten out loud and clear, clear as a bell. We repeat the message over and over and over again. What they\u2019ve screwed up on is they have failed to do what Clinton did and that\u2019s disguise and mask what they were trying to do. These people got so cocky and so full of themselves with their majority and the idea that Obama was loved and adored not just by the country but the whole world, that they could finally open up. ‘Okay, here\u2019s what we\u2019re going to do. This is what we\u2019re about. This is how we\u2019re going to make you dependent on us. This is how we\u2019re gonna destroy the private sector. This is how we make sure that you only can go to government to get a job down the road. Most of what you get\u2019s gonna be from the government down the line, even your car and your banking and your student loan.\u2019 <\/p>\n

Oh, no, the ‘message\u2019 got out plain as day. I love this. ”It was clear that too often we didn\u2019t have the ball — Congress had the ball in terms of driving the message,\u2019 communications director Dan Pfeiffer said.\u2019 Bam gave \u2019em the ball! Obama gave Congress the ball. He didn\u2019t come up with his own legislation. Theirs was the only legislation to be talked about. Anyway the story goes on and on and on. ‘Senior White House aides described the changes as an aggressive response, aimed at producing fresh momentum for the president\u2019s faltering agenda and regaining the advantage ahead of the congressional midterm elections in November.\u2019 Bring it on. This is crazy. In a companion story here from State-Controlled Associated Press: ‘Thrust into office on the veracity of hope, President Barack Obama is trying to get himself on the right side of a remarkably different national sentiment these days: anger. <\/p>\n

‘Obama\u2019s expansive domestic goals are largely the same, but his message is changing, now constructed around a concession that the public is disillusioned and wanting results. If he cannot show people that he understands their frustration and is working to fix it, the risks are real.\u2019 So a second story here saying anger replaces hope, but it\u2019s only because the message hadn\u2019t gotten out yet. Listen, later in the story it says: ‘A new Washington Post-ABC News poll finds that two-thirds of people are either dissatisfied by the way the federal government is working or outright angry about it. And that\u2019s a problem Obama now owns.\u2019 It is his policies that are causing this anger! We go to the audio sound bites. On Morning Joe today on MessNBC, Scarborough was talking to Sam Stein of the Huffing and Puffington Post. Scarborough says, ‘Would it be damaging to [Obama\u2019s] base to bring in Dick Cheney, talk to him a little bit about some of this stuff?\u2019<\/p>\n

STEIN: During the height of the health care debate, I was brought in with a bunch of other reporters to talk to some White House officials, and this is when Rush Limbaugh was making all these charges about death panels. And one of the questions that came up was: ‘Why not talk to Rush Limbaugh and see if you could persuade him that this is just a crazy charge that has no merit?\u2019 And they said, ‘Uhhhh, we\u2019re not going to do that because it would really be problematic for anyone else on the — on the left of the spectrum to see us talking with Rush Limbaugh.\u2019 I think the whole thing continues with Cheney, too. I think eventually they\u2019re going to try more diplomacy when it comes to the Cheney mind-set but, for now, ahhhh, I think they\u2019re not going to invite him in for coffee or tea.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Man, oh, man, oh, man. I don\u2019t believe they were actually ever considering that. They would never bring me in. They knew they couldn\u2019t talk me out of the death panels because the death panels were in the bill! They couldn\u2019t talk me out of what I was saying because what I was saying about his health care plan was correct and he didn\u2019t have one. He didn\u2019t have a plan. By the way, do you know what? In advance of this meeting on February 25th — which I\u2019m told now Mitch McConnell is going to take some of his leadership guys up to this meeting and they say they\u2019re going to go on offense in this meeting. I don\u2019t know how they\u2019re going to do that because they\u2019re not going to have the power to set the agenda. For the Republicans to go to this meeting thinking they\u2019re going to go on the offense is like me telling you that a caller is going to determine how this radio program turns out each and every day. <\/p>\n

It just isn\u2019t going to happen. Nothing against callers, but I\u2019m the head honcho here; the caller is not — and Obama is the head honcho in the White House whenever anybody goes up there to talk to him. The people going up to talk to him are not. So it will be interesting. Then in light of that Jon Kyl ‘threw more cold water on the chances that his party would cooperate with a Feb. 25 healthcare reform summit at the White House, protesting that Democrats already seem poised to force a bill through Congress. Speaking on CNN\u2019s ‘State of the Union,\u2019 Kyl echoed a claim that congressional Republicans have made for the past week, that President Barack Obama and House and Senate Democrats intend the summit as a public display and not a genuine dialogue. <\/p>\n

‘He quoted a recent Wall Street Journal article that asserted House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has ‘set the stage\u2019 for using reconciliation to pass the [health care]. That controversial legislative tactic could allow the bill to pass the Senate with 51 votes instead of 60′ as you know. He said, ‘I don\u2019t know why we would be having a bipartisan summit down at the White House if they\u2019ve already decided on this other process by which they\u2019re going to jam the bill through.\u2019 I don\u2019t know how that squares with McConnell saying he\u2019s going to take his leadership gang up there. I guess they\u2019re just of the opinion, ladies and gentlemen, they can\u2019t not go. But I, frankly, think that there\u2019s nothing wrong with being the party of ‘no,\u2019 especially at this point in time and on this issue. Let\u2019s go to ABC\u2019s This Week. During the roundtable Peter Beinart, The Daily Beast, said this about Cheney…<\/p>\n

BEINART: Dick Cheney is not a bad guy to have a fight with. I mean, this is a guy whose opinion ratings at one point were lower than O.J. Simpson\u2019s. One of the advantages when the opposition — when you — when you have an opposition party is you can define their leaders. You can choose the more unpopular guys. They picked a fight with Rush Limbaugh. Now they\u2019re — they\u2019re having the fight with Dick Cheney because he\u2019s one of the more unpopular Republicans out there.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Um, I don\u2019t think these guys quite understand what\u2019s happened out there. If I may? Mr. Beinart, with all due respect, my popularity is at an all-time high. Obama\u2019s popularity is plunging big time — and Cheney is one of the most respected voices in the Republican Party. These guys are so detached from reality in the State-Controlled Media, it is laughable and humorous to watch it.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Colbert King, Colby King is a columnist for the WaPo, the Washington Post. He was on public television\u2019s Inside Washington on Saturday and compared me to the Taliban wing of the Republican Party.<\/p>\n

KING: Rush Limbaugh, who represents I think the Taliban wing of the Republican Party, who is urging, urging the party in Washington to say ‘no,\u2019 he said be the party of ‘no,\u2019 resist compromise within, don\u2019t try to work with this administration, you should be the party of ‘no\u2019 ‘no\u2019 ‘no,\u2019 and that\u2019s what they\u2019re listening to.<\/p>\n

RUSH: I don\u2019t know if they\u2019re listening to me or not but they\u2019re doing the right thing. Why in the world, Colby — pardon me, folks. I know it\u2019s pointless to try to educate these people inside the Beltway, especially Democrats and columnists, but what in the world is there to want to compromise with this administration on? This administration\u2019s destroying the private sector on purpose. This administration is trying to take over one-sixth of the US economy. And, by the way, I\u2019m talking about health care, and one thing we need to keep pounding and reminding everybody, Obama\u2019s health care proposals are not intended to help the people. They are intended to help the Democrat Party, and that\u2019s why Obama keeps pushing it. <\/p>\n

And I\u2019m told about this February 25th meeting, folks, that Obama\u2019s actually going to put together his own health care proposal. He\u2019s actually going to have a bill. <\/p>\n

Now, why do you think that is? Who in the world has been reminding everybody that poor old Obama never even had a bill? It was I, the Taliban wing of the Republican Party. You know, let me ask you something, Colby. You think your real enemy is us? The real enemy is the real Taliban and the real Al-Qaeda, and it would be nice if people like you had a little bit more serious take on them than political opponents who simply support capitalism, freedom, and liberty and see no reason to compromise with people who don\u2019t believe in any of that. Where is the compromise between right and wrong? Where\u2019s the compromise between good and evil? If I believe in liberty, free market capitalism and all that, where is there any area of compromise with this administration? If I think the federal government has no business running health care to any greater extent than they already do, why should I entertain any bit of compromise with them, why should I accept their premise, Colby? I disagree with every premise. <\/p>\n

We\u2019re here to defeat them. We\u2019re here to politically defeat them and see to it their agenda does not succeed. And when was the last time, Colby, you asked the Democrats to compromise with me? When\u2019s the last time you asked the Democrats to compromise with Newt Gingrich or George W. Bush? You guys have this one-way street, you have this august view of yourselves as in power in perpetuity, as a birthright and we\u2019re just a bunch of little ankle biters knocking around bugging you people, a bunch of Chihuahuas and we gotta start healing, ‘Yes master.\u2019 We gotta run around and when you say ‘sit\u2019 we sit, when you say ‘heel\u2019 we heel, when you say ‘lay down\u2019 we lay down. It ain\u2019t that way, Colby. There\u2019s nothing to compromise with here. Zilch, zero. Do you think I want the federal government owning car companies or banks? You know what\u2019s happening? Folks, I\u2019m going to tell you what\u2019s happening. Everybody thinks Wall Street is a bunch of Republicans, big, evil, rich Republicans. Hell, folks, do you realize Walmart even wants a national health care plan? What\u2019s happened, and, Colby, this is another reason why there\u2019s no compromise, not here. And I don\u2019t speak for the Republican Party, Taliban wing or any other. <\/p>\n

But I\u2019m going to tell you something, what happened here is crony, quote, unquote, crony capitalism, these guys on Wall Street, the Jamie Dimons of the world and Lloyd Blankfeins of JPMorgan Chase and Goldman Sachs respectively, instead of doing business to please their customers are now in business with the government to make sure they\u2019re not killed, to make sure they\u2019re not harmed. Walmart focuses on their customers but they\u2019re also lobbying Washington big time to make sure Obama doesn\u2019t nationalize them. So you have in the old days, the last time this happened was World War II. But that was \u2019cause there was a war on and it made sense. But there\u2019s no war on right now, other than the Taliban wing of the Republican Party and its war against Obama and the Democrats. But that\u2019s hardly World War II. Although — well, wait a minute. The country is under assault, more so than when we were in World War II, other than from the Japanese. But the Germans never attacked us, the Japanese did. <\/p>\n

Regardless, what\u2019s happening here is that major US corporations are getting in bed with the federal government for favorable treatment, government contracts or what have you rather than focusing on pleasing customers, growing their ranks in the traditional free market capitalist way. This has gotta stop and the only reason it\u2019s happening is because you got people in Washington scaring the hell out of everybody, but they\u2019re talking big money. So if you could become part of the Obama big time government machine and guarantee yourself ongoing profits because government\u2019s your biggest customer then that\u2019s what you\u2019re going to do. They\u2019ll follow the lay of the land. This has gotta stop, Colby. The greatest country on earth will cease being if these guys have any success with any part of this agenda of theirs and so there is no compromise. This health care bill, it\u2019s not about helping the people. Show me one aspect of it that does, show me where premiums come down, show me where more people are insured, show me where overall costs decline. None of that happens. All that happens is that people become more and more dependent on government. <\/p>\n

They already nationalized the student loan program, and I got a story here from the Wall Street Journal, I think some woman owes $550,000, that\u2019s how much it cost her to become a doctor. Now, people are not going to be able to pay back that kind of debt over the course of their lives. People are going to start asking is an education worth that? Five hundred and fifty grand. Now, that\u2019s because she\u2019s defaulted on some payments early on because she didn\u2019t have the money, but I mean government doesn\u2019t mind that. The more indentured servitude we have to the government the better people like Obama and the Democrats in Congress like it. Why do I want to compromise with that, Colby? I don\u2019t want to compromise with any aspect of this. They\u2019re not doing health care to help the people. They are intending to do this to help the Democrat Party. That\u2019s why Obama keeps pushing it.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Colby King, Saturday, was on public television\u2019s Inside Washington criticizing me. You know, back in the old days, Colby, your job as a columnist — as an esteemed member of the fourth estate or the fifth column — was to be critical of people who have real power: The government. Colby, no matter what I believe I can\u2019t change your life at all. I may make you miserable, but I can\u2019t raise your taxes, I can\u2019t send your kids off to war, and I can\u2019t take away your health care. You guys used to criticize government. Now you criticize the critics. Stop and think of that. You\u2019re out there criticizing the critics. I mean, I\u2019m honored to be a target.
