Julie, welcome to the EIB Network.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Welcome. Thank you, Rush, for taking my call. I\u2019m a first-time caller, so I hope I\u2019m not nervous. Congratulations on your wedding. Best wishes to you and Kathryn. <\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Listen, I agree with your assessment and the previous caller\u2019s assessment about Obama redirecting his direction to Afghanistan.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yes.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: But the real problem, the real elephant in the room, if you will, is that monies are not flowing into the RNC and senatorial Republican National Committees. Even with this momentum, they\u2019re not flowing in there. The Democrats right now are still ahead even with the 60% fall, for example, from Wall Street and New York and some of those areas. Now, the tea parties are getting the money, but I\u2019m concerned about the coordination. There is really no overall coordination. If you contrast this with Haley Barbour in 1994 he had everything coordinated, he had everyone on board. But you look at what\u2019s going on. You got like the quasi-endorsement by the NRA of Harry Reid. You\u2019ve got the fact of his unemployment that you just mentioned. You know, they should be front and center with advertisements about this. The Republicans aren\u2019t holding us up. People don\u2019t know. They need to educate, and it\u2019s an embarrassment and so there\u2019s no leadership, and even though I don\u2019t blame Steele, Steele has a hard time trying to coordinate some of these disparate elements.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125114.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"340\" height=\"239\" class=\"alignright\"\/>RUSH: Wait a minute. Why don\u2019t you blame Steele? I mean, the whole point of the RNC is fundraising. The RNC chairman is not a media star and he\u2019s not a pundit. He\u2019s supposed to be a fundraiser. He doesn\u2019t speak to policy and so forth. He\u2019s not technically or even in theory the leader of the party. That\u2019s me.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, yes. That would &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: (laughing) <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: That aside, but you understand what I\u2019m saying?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yes, I understand what you\u2019re saying!<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Think about Haley Barbour in 1994.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I can also explain it to you.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I can explain that the Republicans think they\u2019re gonna sweep to victory if they don\u2019t do anything. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: (snorts) Ha!<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: They think there\u2019s so much anger at Obama and the Democrats. There\u2019s a Rasmussen poll out today: 60% of the American people still want the health care bill repealed. However, only 41% think it will be.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, may I say one thing? What about the Republicans in the House? They are not signing on the discharge petition. What about those three Senators not agreeing with repeal of the health care law? I mean, this is something they\u2019re against and yet they\u2019re not willing to put their name on the paper?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, I think there\u2019s a&#8230; We talk about the House and there are some different things going on there.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: The discharge petition that they\u2019re &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: &#8212; trying to get together.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: No. That\u2019s a strategy. The House Republicans are trying to frame the election. They\u2019re trying to nationalize the election &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Right.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: &#8212; much as they did in 1994. And by that I mean they\u2019re going to run in local congressional districts not on local issues. They\u2019re going to tell people in those districts, &#8216;Hey, if you elect this Democrat X, we\u2019re going to be forever exposed to a national security threat. We\u2019re going to forever broke because this guy spends money left and right.\u2019 That\u2019s the strategy here, at least on the House side and maybe in the Senate as well. But I don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I\u2019m concerned about the coordination. It doesn\u2019t seem like there\u2019s a lot of coordination. At this point with all the momentum, you would have thought that we would have been way ahead with at least the fundraising, and, yes, the tea party people are going to be giving to special campaigns but we need an overall coordination. I don\u2019t think anyone finds this important enough. I do. I\u2019m very concerned about it. I think we\u2019re going to get the House but I don\u2019t think we\u2019re going to get the Senate, and it\u2019s because of this lack of coordination. If we had a Haley Barbour believe me you, I think things would be a little bit different. Not that I\u2019m, you know&#8230; Well&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, now, Haley Barbour, it\u2019s interesting, Haley Barbour is. A lot of people are asking Haley Barbour what he would do about Steele.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Mmm-hmm.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: And Barbour is not going to say. Steele\u2019s term is up in January anyway, and Haley Barbour has his own plans and designs. Now, there are numerous stories in the media today. Russ Feingold is in trouble in Wisconsin. Patty Murray is in trouble in the state of Washington, along with Boxer. Nobody ever dreamed that this would happen. The talk here that the Republicans may actually take the House two years after the most popular candidate&#8230;? I mean, The Messiah! The Messiah had come! We were going to be unified, we were going to be all this, and the Republicans might win this despite themselves. What troubles me more than the fundraising coordination or lack of it is if they win this thing they\u2019d better have won it but telling people what they\u2019re going to do. They better give themselves a mandate here.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>Folks, I\u2019m&#8230; (sigh) I\u2019ve been sitting in this chair for 21 years, and for 21 years people have been calling, asking me, &#8216;Why don\u2019t the Republicans do X?\u2019 and I do not have an answer. I do not have conclusive evidence to support any answer I give you. I can only th\u2019speculate and theorize insurgency. Now, granted, my speculation and theorization would be a little bit more informed than the average person. But&#8230; (interruption) All right, what\u2019s the question? Ask me the question. I get so frustrated with this! I\u2019m not the Republican Party! I don\u2019t know what they\u2019re doing. I couldn\u2019t tell you why they\u2019re going to do what they do. I can only guess they\u2019re scared to death of anything negative said about them in Washington, which I totally can\u2019t relate to. You know, I love grief. They fear it. If you fear grief and you\u2019re in politics, you\u2019re dead. If you fear criticism, if you fear being criticized by the people you want to be liked by you\u2019re dead. <\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t care if it\u2019s politics or anything else in your life. If you want to be loved by the wrong people, you\u2019re going to do two things. You\u2019re either gonna bastardize yourself to be loved by \u2019em and then you\u2019re going to be twice as miserable as you were, or you\u2019re going to ignore it and be who you are, in which case you\u2019re going to be happy. But I don\u2019t know why. They\u2019re sitting there thinking they\u2019re gonna win this regardless what they do. Why make waves on agenda items and policy? Then you\u2019ve got Boehner. He\u2019s got an idea. Eric Cantor has an idea. One of the things Obama is out there saying is, &#8216;Look, you people. I\u2019m going to make some hard choices coming up next year, and you people have been whining and moaning about the deficits, I\u2019m going to call your bluff.\u2019 Well, as I told you last week, this is a trick waiting to happen. <\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the Obama quote: &#8216;Next year when I start presenting some very difficult choices to the country, I hope some of these folks who are hollering are deficits and debt step up, because I\u2019m calling their bluff.\u2019 That\u2019s after the 2010 election. When I start presenting? Why are you waiting? Why are you waiting two years to start these very difficult choices? Why &#8212; why are you spending trillions of dollars before you start? Well, we know why! All of this is just a pretext for tax increases. So the Republicans are out there talking about deficits, spending, and we\u2019ve gotta stop it, and they\u2019re walking right into a trap. &#8216;Okay, well, the money\u2019s been spent. We need tax increases now,\u2019 and what Obama\u2019s counting on is that the Republicans, in order to stay true to their concerns about spending and debt will agree to tax increases to reduce the spending and the debt. Some Republicans, particularly Senate, might fall for the trap. <\/p>\n<p>The Republicans, instead of talking about deficits and spending, need to start talking about growth. They need to start talking about private sector economic growth. That\u2019s how to blunt this trick that Obama has laid here. &#8216;I\u2019m gonna call their bluff.\u2019 &#8216;When I start presenting some very difficult choices to the country.\u2019 The difficult choices are supposed to be made by the chief executive, and that\u2019s you, Mr. President. You are the leader of the regime. &#8216;I hope some of these folks who are hollering about deficits and debt speak up.\u2019 He\u2019s been hollering about deficits and debt, as though he had nothing to do with them, as though he inherited them. So the answer to all this is not to get caught up in deficits and spending. Everybody already knows that\u2019s outta whack! The antidote to this is growth, and therefore tax increases will not do it. <\/p>\n<p>We cannot tax increase ourselves into prosperity. It never happens! It woulda happened by now in the last year and a half if it was going to happen. These tax increases that are coming next year are going to cause more economic malaise and it\u2019s going to be a disaster. It\u2019s gonna make right now look like a utopia if these tax increases do hit &#8212; and, by the way, they\u2019re gonna hit. What do you think the purpose of this deficit reduction commission is? They report in December, after the elections, and they\u2019re gonna report a VAT tax and increased tax rates on &#8216;the rich,\u2019 and all kinds of stuff. &#8216;Because that\u2019s the only option we have \u2019cause we can\u2019t cut spending. It\u2019s already spent. It\u2019s already there in the budget.\u2019 So the answer to this has to be growth. The way to blunt what Obama\u2019s trick is, is, &#8216;No, Mr. President. You can talk about deficits and spending all you want. You own it. You own the deficit. You have spent all the money. <\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We didn\u2019t vote for any of it. We couldn\u2019t stop any of it. Mr. President, we are interested in growth. We want policies that will grow the private sector, in which case we must stop doing everything you\u2019re doing.\u2019 That\u2019s the way, but they\u2019re afraid to say that. Don\u2019t ask me. For 21 years I\u2019ve offered my answers, I\u2019ve given you my theories as to &#8216;Why don\u2019t they do this?\u2019 and &#8216;Why don\u2019t they do that?\u2019 and you\u2019ve heard every one of them a thousand times. (interruption) What\u2019s the question? Mmm-hmm. (interruption) Do I think the Republicans left in office know why they are thrown out? You mean in 2006 and 2008? Okay, Snerdley, wants to know if I think the Republicans who are remaining know why their colleagues were thrown out. Now, you obviously, Snerdley, think they were thrown out because of spending and becoming like Democrats in that regard and so forth, and there is credence to that. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125114.Par.43721.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"268\" class=\"alignright\"\/>But they also were thrown out because of Mark Foley. If Mark Foley hadn\u2019t happened, I\u2019m not sure that Pelosi\u2019s bunch woulda won. There was clear anger at the Republicans by Republican voters, but the Foley thing, that tipped it. I mean, that took it from spending to corruption and ethics, and Foley was e-mails. Just like George Allen is gone because of Macaca. While all this is going on, you\u2019ve got Bill Clinton and Barack Obama defending a Klansman! He had to be a Klansman to get elected. So in one sense if you\u2019re Republican you say, &#8216;What the hell am I supposed to do? If I defend a Klansman, I\u2019m dead. If I don\u2019t demand Steele quit, I\u2019m dead. Meanwhile, these guys are out defending a Klansman! He had to do it to get elected.\u2019 So I\u2019m not sure that the number one reason the Republicans lost in \u201906 was spending. I will admit &#8212; I\u2019ve said this before, too &#8212; that they went to Washington and they forgot why they were sent.<\/p>\n<p>They failed to govern as they had campaigned, but the Foley thing, had that not happened, I\u2019m still not convinced that Pelosi\u2019s gang would have won &#8212; and that was a coordinated and timed event with the mainstream media. They had that information, they had those e-mails &#8212; and that\u2019s all they were, by the way. There was never any contact between Foley and these pages. It was just e-mails, and they had that and they timed it just like they had the George W. Bush DWI in 2000 timed. You know, the famous &#8216;October Surprise,\u2019 which everybody waits for. You look at Kagan, the Elena Kagan hearings. People say, &#8216;How come the Republicans aren\u2019t giving her any grief?\u2019 Jeff Sessions tried. But the Republican attitude is, &#8216;Hey, they won. He gets to pick his nominees. That\u2019s the way we look at it.\u2019 Now, we would say, &#8216;Well, for crying out loud, they don\u2019t, and the aggressor sets the rules of the game! They\u2019re not going to let us get our nominees just because we win the nomination. Why are you going to let them have theirs? &#8216;Well, we\u2019re more civil.\u2019 Uhhh, right. All the while being accused of having no civility.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Here is Julie in Houston. Julie, welcome to the EIB Network.
