They\u2019re staring at the camera. Well, they say &#8220;blank.&#8221; Knowing who they are, you can see disgust on their faces. (sigh)<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_114871\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/COuple_large.jpg\"\/><BR\/>They don\u2019t look happy to be arriving or showing up here. So as the authorities and others keep digging, more and more is being discovered about this. (interruption) Well, you know, I wonder about this, too. Ever since I have heard that it\u2019s the woman here who was calling the shots, it was the <\/line><BR\/>woman who was strong-willed leader, and it was the husband who was this little blind puppy dog following along getting orders, taking orders, and executing orders. That does not make sense with what we\u2019ve been told about the way women are treated in Islam.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>The normal, we\u2019ve been told, is that women do not get anywhere near this kind of power. However, however, keep in mind that this is a stark difference. These are agents. These are operatives who have been assigned a mission, and I would venture to say that in this couple, the handlers have assessed who it is that\u2019s stronger of the two and have bestowed upon her &#8212; as an agent &#8212; the responsibility for leading the entire thing. Because this is in stark contrast to what we are told is the role of women in Islamic society.<\/p>\n<p>They don\u2019t get anywhere near this kind of power. Nowhere near it. But remember the Soviets had these kind of agents, Americanized, that were moved to the United States and lived among the natives in the suburbs of Washington. Their kids went to American schools. They had jobs at American businesses, and nobody knew they were Soviet agents. The great writer Nelson DeMille wrote a great book about this Soviet operation. I think this is much the same. This couple is much the same as the former Soviet operation. And it may still exist, by the way.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, we uncovered that Anna whatever her name was who lived in New Jersey, the Russian spy, the redhead?<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Stephen in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, hi. Great to have you on the program, sir. Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Good to be here, Rush. Been listening a long time. I\u2019m a big fan of the show.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I appreciate that. Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Okay, I think you missed the mark a little bit on why Barack won\u2019t call this Islamic extremism, if you\u2019d like to hear that.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Sure.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Now, think about this. Now, this person that carried out this terrorist attack in San Bernardino is this supposedly heavy American living out the American dream, college educated, and working for the government, even, and he can be persuaded to do this at what, just a short period of time, this opens up the doors basically for every Muslim that\u2019s a practicing Muslim in this country to actually be converted equally as well. If you think about the ramifications of that, for instance, profiling every Muslim of this country. It\u2019s gonna undermine basically every bit of rhetoric that this person has put out since he\u2019s come into office. What do you think about that?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Okay, this is my fault. I\u2019m out of time, for one thing. So I\u2019m gonna have to read the transcript of what you said to get to your point, and I\u2019ll do that and I\u2019ll comment on it when we get back because I wasn\u2019t able to hear everything you said and follow it. It\u2019s my bad. Not your problem.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_114875\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ISIS-Gothic.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH: I want to expand on this last caller.  The way we do things here, can you people watching on the Dittocam see this?  You see the boom here?  See this cute, lovely Christmas decoration?  It totally obscures the monitor where the transcription of callers is, so when I want to read what a caller is saying, if I can\u2019t hear them, I have to do this, and when I do that, it means I can\u2019t talk on the microphone. Or I have to lean over like this to see it.  <\/line><\/p>\n<p>So I was trying to follow the last caller.  We only had one minute, and I neglected to tell him that, but he was doing okay on that front.  He got in there, he got it, and got out.  But he said something at the beginning that rendered everything else confusing to me.  He said, &#8220;You missed the point&#8221; on something.  So I kept waiting for him to say what I got wrong, and he never did.  So I said, &#8220;I gotta read what you said when you finish, \u2019cause I haven\u2019t had a chance to read it.&#8221;  And his point was actually somewhat good.  <\/p>\n<p>He says that the reason Obama won\u2019t call it Islamic extremism is because of the way this guy, Syed Farook &#8220;Climate Change,&#8221; was portrayed.  And it\u2019s true.  How was this guy portrayed?  He was as red-blooded American as you or me.  Why, he came here, and he got a job, and he was working at a job that he loved, and he just bought his first house, and he just got married, and he just had a baby, and he was living the American dream.  And look what happened.  He shot up the place he worked.  He went jihad on everybody.  And the caller\u2019s point was, Obama doesn\u2019t want anybody thinking this can happen, because if any normal red-blooded American Muslim can be so easily converted to jihad, we\u2019ve got big problems.  And by itself, it\u2019s a great point.  <\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a great illustration, by the way, of the fact that the guy never was living the American dream.  That\u2019s what was wrong about this.  That was just PR.  That was just buzz in the aftermath of the event.  It didn\u2019t take long before this guy\u2019s dad stupidly spoke up and started telling us the truth.  Oh, yeah, he hated Jews. He didn\u2019t like Israel. He was religious &#8212; did you hear what the dad told him?  The dad said &#8212; get this &#8212; Syed Farook &#8220;Climate Change&#8221; Sr. said to his son, &#8220;Be patient.  In two years there will not be an Israel.&#8221;  Nobody\u2019s talking about that.  But Syed Farook &#8220;Climate Change&#8221; Sr., these are his words.  This is not third hand what somebody said he said.  He\u2019s talking to the media.  He told his son, you\u2019re getting too radicalized here.  You need to just dial this back, \u2019cause there isn\u2019t gonna be an Israel in two years.  His son spoke often of his hatred for Jews and his hatred for Israel and all this.  <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_114898\" class=\"alignleft\" align=\"left\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/499668630_large.jpg\"\/><BR\/>The point was I don\u2019t think the guy ever was living the American dream.  And if he was, then the stories about how his wife radicalized him have to be somewhat true.  I think he arrives radicalized, I think they both did, but doesn\u2019t matter, it doesn\u2019t change what they did.  It\u2019s just that in the immediate aftermath, look at the lengths to which the media and everybody went to try to portray these as just two normal American dream pursuers who just happened to take a step or two in the wrong direction, such a sad thing.  And it was meant to downplay who they really are. I\u2019m convinced that the reason CAIR went out there before a reason had even been given was because they knew, they were in damage control before the FBI even gave \u2019em a reason to be in damage control.  <\/line><\/p>\n<p>So I don\u2019t think there\u2019s any mistake, I don\u2019t think there\u2019s any doubt that this pair arrived here radicalized.  It wasn\u2019t that the American dream wasn\u2019t enough for \u2019em.  It was just that that\u2019s a convenient story.  However, the observation that if you\u2019re gonna build a story like this, i.e., husband and wife moving here from war torn region of the Middle East or Pakistan or wherever coming here and getting a job and making a lot of money and having a nice house, who cares they got pipe bombs, deal with that later, and having a baby and all this other wonderful American dream stuff, and then they snap, could convey that it could happen to any of them.  It would be something that Obama would not want thought of, mentioned, considered.  But I don\u2019t think that\u2019s why Obama doesn\u2019t want to call it radical Islam.  I\u2019ve already been through that.  They just don\u2019t believe Islam is radical or there\u2019s no part of it that is.  It\u2019s absurd.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: ABC News found a picture of the loving couple at Customs entering the country. &#8220;The image, apparently taken as the [loving] couple,&#8221;
