RUSH: I\u2019m not quite through with this immigration stuff before we get to the financial stuff. It seems to me, ladies and gentlemen, that Obama and the Democrats are demonizing government employees. Aren\u2019t the governor and legislators of Arizona who passed this bill, government employees? Are they not? And who the hell is out there demonizing them? Where\u2019s Bill Clinton when you need him? We got state employees and government employees being beaten as pinatas! The governor is being beaten with her face on a pinata. Where\u2019s Clinton when you need him? Where\u2019s all the concern about the violence that might visit these state government employees? I don\u2019t see any concern for that. Wasn\u2019t there a push — I know there was because we satirized it, a push mostly from liberal Democrats — to give illegals identification back in 2007. It came up during the campaign. So they could have some form of ID so they could open bank accounts. In other words, we wanted illegals to have papers! And we satirized it with the Bank of Amigo…<\/p>\n

(Bank of Amigo parody) <\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, so we were going to give \u2019em identification so they could open bank accounts. We were going to give them papers!<\/p>\n

RUSH: Bob in Chicago, welcome to the EIB, sir. Great to have you with us.<\/line> <\/line> CALLER: Hey, Rush, thanks for taking my call.<\/line> <\/line> RUSH: You bet. You bet.<\/line> <\/line> CALLER: I have a comment regarding this immigration bit. I\u2019m a small contractor in the Chicago area. I\u2019ve been here for 25 years. <\/line> <\/line> RUSH: Are you still in business? <\/line><\/p>\n

CALLER: I\u2019m still in business. Last year I made under $40,000, and for two years I have hired an illegal, unknown to me. He provided documentation for me, full documentation, which I kept on file, and when I sent him a W-2 form I got a letter back from the government that it\u2019s incorrect. Now, I have a potential of being fined because I had someone illegal working for me, and I was told that it\u2019s my obligation to check this man out to see if he is illegal or not.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You mean you were to check his papers.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I was to check his papers. I was to call immigrations here in Broadview —<\/p>\n

RUSH: And you did check his papers and he had apparently what were legal papers, right?<\/p>\n

CALLER: I looked at his papers, they looked fine to me. I made copies of them, I have them on file here, and he told me, ‘You want new papers? I get you new papers tomorrow.\u2019 For $125 they can get a full set of papers in the Chicago area, get a driver\u2019s license, Social Security card, and green card.<\/p>\n

RUSH: That\u2019s what Obama taught ACORN to do, yeah.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I don\u2019t know if ACORN had anything to do with it —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, don\u2019t doubt me. I mean if ACORN\u2019s willing to set up brothels for imports from Central America, I mean they\u2019ll sure as hell come up with fake IDs and driver\u2019s licenses for them.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, the facility that provides this paperwork is within about four miles of Obama\u2019s home in Chicago. So you can\u2019t tell me that they were not aware of it. So it very well could be that ACORN has something to do with it, but —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, come on, whether it\u2019s ACORN or some other name. It\u2019s a community agitator bunch. We got the videotape of these clowns openly assisting a pimp set up a whorehouse for illegal alien females from Central America.<\/p>\n

CALLER: So now I have the potential of being fined $10,000 —<\/p>\n

RUSH: What happened when you sent the W-2 to the guy, was he not there? How did the government find out that the guy wasn\u2019t real?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Because the W-2 form went out and that\u2019s how they identified it because the name on the card did not correspond with the number.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Okay, so identity theft. Identity theft. LifeLock, identity theft is what happened to you. Now, you\u2019re up for the ten-grand fine even though you\u2019re the one scammed.<\/p>\n

RUSH: To the phones! Dick. Back to Arizona, he\u2019s in Tucson. Welcome to the EIB Network, sir. Hello.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Rush it\u2019s a great honor to speak with you.<\/p>\n

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

CALLER: I\u2019m a first-time caller. I\u2019ll try to get to the point real quickly here. I\u2019m a 62-year-old resident of Green Valley, Arizona, just about 30, 40 miles from the Mexican border. What we\u2019re seeing down here is an absolute travesty — and, frankly, I\u2019m very, very disappointed in our lawmakers both in Washington and locally. But I\u2019m really hoping that your listeners that support our cause down here push back. Our economy has suffered enough. What we\u2019d like to see is a boycott… You know, if San Francisco and California in general is going to boycott us, then your listeners ought to boycott maybe the wineries in California. I\u2019m all for taking my California wines and pouring them out in the desert.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, you know, that\u2019s not a bad idea. I think you need to — and please don\u2019t misunderstand this. But the premiere boycott leader in the country is Bill O\u2019Reilly. He brought France to its knees not long ago, and if anybody could succeed in a boycott of the wine country in California — you don\u2019t have to call O\u2019Reilly. I\u2019m sure he\u2019ll hear about this, but he\u2019s got the power, the wherewithal. He\u2019s got the guts to do it.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I\u2019ve called just about everybody I can think of: Just come down here for a week and walk through the desert. Last weekend I walked through the desert: 200 sleeping bags, backpacks, blankets, cans, bottles of water, within about, oh, probably a five mile area. And, you know, you go out there, you pick all this crap up —<\/p>\n

RUSH: And this was not people on vacation.<\/p>\n

CALLER: — and a week later it\u2019s backs out there.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah. This was not Arizonans on vacation, right?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Not to my knowledge. (laughs)<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n

CALLER: No. Heh-heh. It\u2019s people coming through and bringing their stuff.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Here\u2019s what I think. Like I said earlier, I think the governor needs to call a press conference and announce all the places in San Francisco where people on welfare get their benefits. Give \u2019em a map. Just print up a map of San Francisco: This is where you go if you want this. This is where you go if you want that, and a press conference for illegal aliens and then give them all a one-way travel voucher on Greyhound or Amtrak to get them to San Francisco. I mean, it\u2019s a ‘sanctuary city\u2019 and all that. Dick, thanks for the call out there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
