\"Listen<\/a><\/p>\n

RUSH: You know, I\u2019m sitting here, and there\u2019s a part of me that\u2019s embarrassed, because I suspected it, but I didn\u2019t have the guts to go there. I knew this thing at Mizzou was a hoax. I knew the whole thing had to begin with a hoax, and we know that it did. There were two hoaxes that got this whole thing started. There was never a swastika of poop. It was totally made up. And this Butler kid, the hunger striker, he comes from a wealthy family in Nebraska. His father is a railroad executive, but he lost his health care in his undergraduate, something to do with his health care, because of Obamacare. Those two things are what triggered this and everything else that happened after that was a result of the kind of anti-white privilege, which is a meme, by the way. <\/p>\n

I want to make a prediction. In future Republican debates at some point that term “white privilege” is gonna be brought up, and these guys are gonna have to be ready, because the question, “Would you define the white privilege that\u2019s governed your life.” It\u2019s gonna be something like that. That\u2019s one of the things that\u2019s governed this. The signs were there, should have picked up on it. All these college kids, stories we\u2019ve had the last couple years, white kids running around professing their guilt at their white privilege, should have known, just should have known, should have been able to put two and two together. <\/line><\/p>\n

Anyway, details on all this coming up as the program unfolds before your very eyes, Rush Limbaugh behind the Golden EIB Microphone. The telephone number is 800-282-2882, and the e-mail address, ElRushbo@eibnet.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It was just the last couple of days another MU student claimed that the KKK was on campus, and it turns out he totally made it up. The whole thing was practically a hoax. Every bit of it. None of it, very little bit of it was real, and certainly the allegations of blatant racism and all this were totally made up and manufactured. I\u2019m just suspicious of this stuff. I know liberals, I understand who these people are, but the reporting on this made it sound like it was legit and so forth, but I\u2019ve learned my lesson. This is the last time, folks, I\u2019m gonna buy into garbage like this without — I didn\u2019t buy into this. It\u2019s just I didn\u2019t voice my real, true sentiments about this. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Look at it this way. Look at the Duke lacrosse case. A total, made-up set of lies that everybody believed. Well, the campus believed it, the faculty believed it, the police chief believed it, the DA believed it. We didn\u2019t believe it here. We were immediately suspicious because it was just too pat. It just fit every leftist racial stereotype. Look at all of the made-up stories about rape on college campuses. The most famous one is Rolling Stone<\/a>, but there are a bunch of them. <\/p>\n

<\/a>Look at all of the made-up — totally made-up — stories that not a shred of it is true on college campus. So here comes this Mizzou business, and… I don\u2019t know. Honestly, folks, I am a little embarrassed that I did not voice my suspicions that this wasn\u2019t real. I just didn\u2019t have the confidence to do it, I will admit it. This is a great lesson on how seductive standard, everyday media reporting is. Look, I\u2019m not alone. Everybody bought into it. Everybody believed it. <\/p>\n

Get the football team involved and you get the… I mean, when nobody on the administration staff is fighting back, when the university president quits in two days, you\u2019re thinking, “Oh, there must be something here.” And, no, it\u2019s just… It was a total hoax. I wonder how everybody feels now. I wonder how everybody at MU feels from the president that retired to the chancellor they got rid of. It was a hoax, and none of the people that were responsible for bringing these issues to light are in any way suffering. <\/p>\n

They come from wealthy families. They\u2019re not in any way being harmed. The whole thing is made up. And I think going forward, you have got to be — we\u2019ve all got to be — totally disbelieving and suspicious of every outrageous story we get that emanates and is sourced to a university and its campus. Radical leftists are getting what they want by lying, hoaxing, being dishonest. It\u2019s not real. And it\u2019s affecting people\u2019s attitudes of their country and of their culture and society, and it\u2019s got to stop. There was no push-back. <\/p>\n

There was not one iota\u2019s worth of push-back anywhere on that campus. There was total caving. And, somebody… These are children we\u2019re talking about. Somebody\u2019s gonna have to stand up to \u2019em and tell \u2019em, “No. No, you\u2019re children, and you don\u2019t know yet, and we\u2019re not simply gonna react, give you what you want and turn Romper Room over to you.” But, man, there\u2019s so much reluctance to do that. We don\u2019t want to offend people, don\u2019t want to make the parents mad, whatever it is. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Now, to the University of Missouri and what looks to me like a series of hoaxes. First let\u2019s look at the hunger strike kid. Student. His name is Jonathan Butler, and my source for this is none other than the vaunted St. Louis Post-Dispatch<\/a>. It\u2019s a story that ran yesterday or the day before. “Jonathan Butler, a central figure in the protests at the University of Missouri, is an Omaha native and the son of a railroad vice president, the Omaha World-Herald reports.<\/p>\n

“Butler refused food last week in a move to force the university system\u2019s president, Timothy M. Wolfe, from office. Wolfe resigned Monday and Butler ended his hunger strike.” His hunger strike lasted a couple of days. I mean, big whoop. I once fasted for a whole month. Nobody had to resign. Nobody had to quit. I didn\u2019t threaten anybody. I just did it. I did it on a dare. I was 21, 22. Nothing but water. I took some vitamin pills.<\/line><\/p>\n

People said, “If you\u2019re not eating anything, the vitamin pills are not gonna matter.”<\/p>\n

I said, “Well, they might psychologically.”<\/p>\n

Jonathan Butler is in his eighth year at Mizzou. <\/p>\n

He\u2019s a graduate student.<\/p>\n

He “played high-school football at Omaha Central High, where he won a state championship, and earned a bachelor\u00c2\u2019s degree in business administration from Mizzou, the newspaper reports. He is working toward a master\u00c2\u2019s degree in educational leadership and policy,” hoaxes. “He is a member of a prominent Omaha family. The newspaper says that Butler\u2019s father is Eric L. Butler, executive vice president for sales and marketing for the Union Pacific Railroad. His 2014 compensation was $8.4 million…”<\/p>\n

The hunger strike kid, the hunger strike student — struggling and fighting for social justice, battling against the racism and the inequality and the lack of social justice on the campus at Missouri — his father earned $8.4 million last year. And we know it because of “regulatory filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Eric L. Butler and his wife, Cynthia Butler, serve as pastors of Joy of Life Ministries, the newspaper reported. Along with Jonathan Butler, the couple has two other children.<\/p>\n

“Butler, who was seen walking on the Mizzou campus on Tuesday, has declined to be interviewed by the Post-Dispatch, other than to say he was feeling better.” Okay, so he doesn\u2019t have anything in common with the poor, anything in common with the suffering. He doesn\u2019t have anything in common. He\u2019s a typical guilt-ridden rich kid who probably has been gotten to by the race hustlers and the civil rights activists. I don\u2019t know what happened, but clearly he\u2019s not the picture presented. <\/p>\n

He\u2019s not a poor, struggling student — and apparently what started all of this is that he lost his health insurance or a part of it in his graduate student years because of Obamacare. Here is that story from the Wall Street Journal. “Bonfire of the Academy — As liberal adults abdicate, the kids take charge on campus.” It\u2019s a Wall Street Journal editorial. “By bonfire of the academy we mean a conflict of values about the idea of a university that now threatens to undermine or destroy universities as a place of learning.<\/p>\n

“Exhibit A is the ruin called the University of Missouri. In the 1960s — at Cornell, Columbia, Berkeley and elsewhere — the self-described Student Left occupied buildings with what they often called ‘non-negotiable\u2019 demands. In the decades since, the academy — its leaders and faculties — by and large has accommodated many of those demands regarding appropriate academic subjects, admissions policies, and what has become the aggressive and nontolerant politics of identity and grievance. <\/line><\/p>\n

“In the United States by now, the instinct of the overwhelming majority of people is to address such complaints in good faith, investigate them, and remediate when necessary. Only the tiniest minority would wish to see racial grievances bleed indefinitely. Yet the kids assert that America is irredeemably racist.” See, this is the first clue to me. The first clue to me when any of this racial stuff comes up, it\u2019s always presented as though this is still the 1840s and the 1850s and we still have slavery and there\u2019s still plantations, and there hasn\u2019t been anything done to address it. That is the narrative of every one of these so-called racial oppression stories or events. <\/p>\n

The race hustlers and the race industry and the Black Lives Matter crowd and the Occupy Wall Street and the Reverend Sharpton and Jackson come get in gear and play to type and create this illusion there hasn\u2019t been any progress and there can\u2019t be any progress because America is in its DNA racist. America as founded is no good and cannot be perfected or fixed. America must be overthrown, torn down, ripped apart, or what have you. <\/line><\/p>\n

And it\u2019s that that infuriates me, and that\u2019s when I lose them, because the whole thing begins on a bunch of false premises, that there has been no effort, there has been no grievances addressed, that slavery is still around, that racism is worse than ever, that discrimination is worse than ever, that hatred is more intense than it\u2019s ever been. None of those things are true and they\u2019re not even close to being true. <\/p>\n

Now, most people think that what\u2019s going on here is, “Rush, come on, you gotta get over this. This is just happens. Teenagers and young adults, they go to school and they rebel and they protest.” That\u2019s not what this is. This is way beyond that, folks. This is way beyond, I mean, even the sixties to a certain extent. This is way beyond. The objectives here are much different. They are more serious, and they\u2019re greater. And another reason it\u2019s different is because the sixties radicals are now running the show and they\u2019re in charge of way too much of our government, of our universities. And their objective is to tear down. Their objective is to rip apart. And in the process they teach — this is the thing. I mean, professors are teaching all this hatred. <\/p>\n

They have these young skulls of mush come into class and they tell \u2019em how they don\u2019t have a chance, that America\u2019s worthy of being hated. You should hate this country. This country hates you. This country isn\u2019t gonna give you a shot if you\u2019re female, if you\u2019re lesbian, if you\u2019re gay, if you\u2019re bi, if you\u2019re African-American, if you\u2019re Hispanic. You don\u2019t have a chance because white privilege runs this country, and if you\u2019re not white, you\u2019re forever gonna be picking up the garbage, taking out the trash for everybody else. You\u2019re nothing; you\u2019re a nonentity. After years of years and years of teaching people this stuff, finally the anger has boiled over, and we\u2019re where we are. <\/p>\n

<\/a>But here\u2019s what really happened here in the case of old Jonathan Butler, whose father makes $8.4 million in Nebraska working for Union Pacific, hunger strike kid. This might be the real beginning of this whole hoax at Mizzou. “Behind the headlines was also a festering dispute between the school administration and graduate students over cutbacks to their health-care coverage. Student Jonathan Butler listed among the reasons for his hunger strike that ‘graduate students [were] being robbed of their health insurance.\u2019 Less noted in the news coverage is that an August posting on the website of the university\u00c2\u2019s division of graduate studies explains in detail that the health-insurance cutbacks are the explicit result of the Affordable Care Act. Obamacare\u00c2\u2019s regulations forbid employers, such as universities, from paying for their grad students\u00c2\u2019 health insurance.”<\/p>\n

Did you know that? Obamacare, because they want to force everybody into the exchanges, once you get your four-year degree and you\u2019re a grad student, you can no longer get your health insurance from the school, i.e., your employer, or the place you go, place you work, you\u2019ve gotta get it on your own, you\u2019ve gotta go to an exchange or you\u2019ve gotta pay a penalty. It was Obamacare. It wasn\u2019t the university president. It wasn\u2019t the university of Missouri, except to the extent that they signed on to Obamacare, and by law they have to. <\/p>\n

So Butler here, who\u2019s dad\u2019s got $8.4 million in salary last year, bonus, earnings, whatever, had his health care taken away as a graduate student. So, harumpf, harumpf, and started all this. And then there have been other hoaxes. One of the biggest hoaxes it looks like has been exposed by a writer at PJ Media. Remember the story about the swastika? Apparently there was a report at two in the morning in a dorm (gasping) an innocent young flower of a student was walking the hallways on the way to the bathroom and noticed a swastika on the walls that had been formed using human feces. For those of you in Rio Linda, that\u2019s number two. And the student was shocked and scared and felt unsafe and felt violated and ran to the nearest — didn\u2019t take a picture, just ran and told people about it. <\/p>\n

There has yet to be any evidence that that swastika ever existed. Not a shred\u2019s worth of evidence, but nobody had the guts to stand up to the complaining, whining student, demand proof, where\u2019s the picture, there was no immediate investigation of it. To this day they can\u2019t find any evidence that a swastika drawn with feces on the wall of a dorm ever happened. And then there\u2019s the student body president. This guy is his own piece of work. <\/line><\/p>\n

I take a brief time-out, and when we get back, fill you in a little bit on this guy, just one of the things that he did was make up the fact that he knew the Ku Klux Klan was on campus. The KKK has a chapter in Columbia. They\u2019re on campus and they are harassing us. It was a rumor, and he has admitted he made it all up.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: “It was a rough night on the campus of the University of Missouri, thanks in large part to Student Body President Payton Head. Head posted on Facebook earlier in the night that the KKK was confirmed on campus and that he was working with ‘the MUPD, the state trooper and the National Guard.\u2019 The only problem with that terrifying statement is it wasn\u00c2\u2019t true and Head was forced to delete the post and apologize.”<\/p>\n

He put it on Facebook, social media, and everybody thinks the KKK has an operating chapter on the campus of Mizzou, and they don\u2019t. Now, at this stage you have all these students at Mizzou and every one of them or the vast majority have a cell phone, and all the cell phones have cameras. The students all live on social media and they\u2019re posting pictures and everything about themselves they can think of on social media. And yet not one picture of the poop swastika. Not one picture of a car driving around with Confederate flags. Not one video of somebody walking down the street calling an innocent University of Missouri child the N-word. <\/p>\n

There isn\u2019t any proof for any of this. There isn\u2019t any evidence that any of it happened. The evidence is the student body president lied about the KKK and that the hunger strike kid doesn\u2019t have much in common with anybody who makes less than $8 million a year. By the way, the student body president, this was uncovered and reported yesterday on our St. Louis affiliate, KMOX. The student body president is African-American. They made him homecoming king in an effort to prove that the school is not racist or any of that. So he\u2019s a student body president, Payton Head. <\/line>He\u2019s a homecoming king. Oh. And did I mention he\u2019s from Chicago and has interned for Rahm Emanuel? The student body president at Mizzou. <\/line><\/p>\n

So no poop swastika photos, no photos of the Confederate flag, no video of some Mizzou child having to hear the N-word. And the school cannot ever admit they were hoaxed. Can you imagine the lawsuits from the people that were fired?<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: So I just checked the e-mail, and there\u2019s a bunch of angry e-mails. It\u2019s obviously an organized campaign. “What do you mean, Ferguson, Missouri, incident was a hoax?” I\u2019ll tell you exactly what I mean. “Hands up, don\u2019t shoot” didn\u2019t happen. And you know the really dangerous thing about this is how many people do you think still, particularly young African-Americans, but liberals in general on social media, how many of them think it actually did happen? <\/p>\n

How many people in this country, particularly young, impressionable youths really still believe that the Gentle Giant was just that, a Gentle Giant. They don\u2019t know that the held up a convenience store and roughed up the owner. They don\u2019t know that he was walking down the middle of the street. No. They\u2019ve been told that he was happily walking down the sidewalk, eagerly anticipating his first days at college. Yes. ‘Cause that\u2019s what he was gonna do. And then a murderous, racist white cop drove up, and without provocation, shot him in the back while the Gentle Giant was running away with his hands up saying, “I surrender, I surrender.” They believe this happened. <\/p>\n

So we have the grand jury hearing. Witness after witness after witness after witness after witness after witness after witness. Nobody told the story the way the leftists wanted it told. In fact, what happened was the Gentle Giant attacked the cop, tried to get his gun, attacked him inside the cop car. We\u2019ve had another life ruined here. The cop\u2019s life has been ruined, and this is what the left does. It\u2019s either Republican candidates, Republican presidential candidates or whoever, they\u2019ll destroy anybody in their way. <\/p>\n

The Gentle Giant wasn\u2019t gentle. He was not murdered. I mean, it\u2019s a sad incident, but if the kid had just been told “no” in his life a couple of times, maybe he wouldn\u2019t have had the attitude that he had that caused all this to happen. My point is, that\u2019s the hoax. “Hands up, don\u2019t shoot” is the hoax. “Hands up, don\u2019t poop” is the hoax with the feces swastika. Students, young impressionable children that attend the University of Missouri can\u2019t handle the N-word being shouted but there\u2019s no evidence that it was, there\u2019s no tape, no pictures of the poop swastika and no pictures of cars driving around with the Confederate flag and there\u2019s no KKK chapter. <\/line><\/p>\n

And you know what else has come out? The football team was not united on this boycott business. The football team was nowhere near united on boycotting the rest of the season or practice. We were lied to. We were set up. This was planned and executed long ago. You\u2019d have to say it was a brilliantly planned and especially well executed hoax. All because nobody\u2019s willing to stand up to any of these people. And at this point, you\u2019re not gonna hear very many people, and certainly nobody in officialdom at the university even using the word “hoax.” <\/p>\n

They can\u2019t admit to being hoaxed for two reasons. How embarrassing. But secondly, a university president and chancellor were essentially fired, forced to resign or else. And, by the way, this mass media studies babe, I saw the video of this last night. (laughing) This is hilarious. You\u2019ve got this Asian-American photographer. I wouldn\u2019t have even noticed Asian-American except I\u2019ve been sensitized to it now by the left. You\u2019ve got this Asian-American photographer and he\u2019s trying to take pictures, still photographer trying to take pictures. He\u2019s got a nice Nikon or Pentax, it looks like, trying to take still pictures of the protesters, and there\u2019s a bunch of people, “No, you can\u2019t come here! You can\u2019t come here! You don\u2019t have the right.” And this guy, “What do you mean, the right? Ever heard of the First Amendment? I\u2019m a journalist here. I\u2019m covering you.” <\/p>\n

“We don\u2019t want you here! We don\u2019t want you here!” little children. They finally grabbed this babe, this mass media professor, and she panicked. “You can\u2019t come in here! You can\u2019t be here, you can\u2019t!” And she ran off looking for help. She wanted some muscle to come over and kick this nice, harmless Asian-American child photographer out of the surroundings, which is another thing. You know, the left is scratching their heads over this, \u2019cause they think that the protesters ought to look at the media as friendly. But yet the protesters were looking at the media as the enemy, or enema, as it were, given the feces swastika. So nothing played to type here. <\/p>\n

Anyway, that babe has been fired. The mass media studies — we read you her bio yesterday, and it\u2019s embarrassing that this woman would even be hired by a kindergarten. And here she is. By the way, this is where failed J school applicants go, mass media studies. <\/p>\n

Anyway, back to the phones we go. This is Carly in Asheville, North Carolina. Welcome. Great to have you on the EIB Network. Hello.<\/p>\n

<\/a>CALLER: Hello, Rush. It\u2019s a pleasure to talk to you. I\u2019m a Rush Baby,<\/a> and I have to tell you, I\u2019m so frustrated having a friend that graduated from Mizzou. She\u2019s an African-American, great girl, but when I see what she posts on Facebook all about this Mizzou, the players, how proud she is of them standing up for what they believe in, even though she can\u2019t articulate what it is they\u2019re standing up for, and how she has to de-friend people who disagreed with her because they were so anti-inclusion and anti-diversity. And it\u2019s like I can\u2019t even voice my own opinion because it\u2019s not what she believes. I\u2019m called a racist and non-accepting of other races, and it\u2019s so frustrating that my generation is immediately jumping on the defense if you don\u2019t believe what they believe.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Hey, one thing, it\u2019s not just your generation. It\u2019s all liberals, and I\u2019m not exaggerating. I\u2019m not trying to be funny or mean or caustic. It\u2019s true. They are the most intolerant bunch around. It\u2019s their way or no way. They\u2019re not interested in having a debate in the arena of ideas. They don\u2019t think there\u2019s qualified opposition and they don\u2019t deign to even entertain it. You either fit in with their small, little worldview or you\u2019re automatically the enemy and you have to be silenced, and whatever it takes to silence you, if it\u2019s embarrassment, if it\u2019s getting you fired from your job or whatever it is, but they are the most intolerant, and it doesn\u2019t matter how old they are. You could have an 85-year-old Jurassic Park professor at Yale or a 12-year-old student at some high school or junior high school somewhere, they\u2019re all the same if they\u2019re liberal. <\/p>\n

CALLER: The irony is they talk about how they\u2019re not about exclusion but yet they won\u2019t include us if what we think isn\u2019t what they think, and I\u2019ve had to stand up for myself.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, congratulations, I\u2019m glad you\u2019re figuring this out. This is progress. You\u2019re figuring it out, you\u2019re living it, you\u2019re seeing it. Now learn from it, and don\u2019t forget it. And don\u2019t think it\u2019s specific to this one friend of yours or exclusive to this one friend of yours. This is precisely why, when we get back into the political sphere, it\u2019s why I just blanch when I hear Republican candidates, “I can work with the opposition. I am the guy who can work with \u2019em. I can cross the aisle.” They don\u2019t want to work with us. They want us not to even be there. They have to be defeated, not cooperated with. <\/p>\n

What\u2019s so hard to understand about this? They\u2019re not trying to work with us. The only way they work with us is if we cave on our core beliefs and sign on with them. Other than that, there\u2019s no cooperation. There\u2019s no working together. There\u2019s no bipartisanship. Partisanship is Republicans opposing Democrats. Bipartisanship is Republicans caving on their core beliefs. I don\u2019t want to operate under those definitions. That\u2019s why I get so frustrated there\u2019s no push-back. There\u2019s no effort to defeat them. No effort to stop them. <\/line><\/p>\n

And that\u2019s what it\u2019s going to take, whether it\u2019s on a college campus and just standing up and saying, “No, you don\u2019t get what you want, grow up. We have a perfectly fine institution here where you have just as fair a shot at anything anybody else has at this university. Go back and study. You really want what you want, get educated. That\u2019s what here we\u2019re to do, and we\u2019ll do it. I realize you\u2019re under a bit of a penalty because all our professors are stupid liberals, but that\u2019s the best we can do. But we\u2019re not gonna shut down the university and we\u2019re not gonna shut down this or that just because you can\u2019t handle some things you don\u2019t like hearing. Time to grow up.” <\/p>\n

But where does this come from? I mean, this is the way these kids have been raised. They didn\u2019t come out of the womb expecting this stuff. They have been raised, they have been cultured, they\u2019ve been coddled. Parents have wanted to be their friends. I\u2019ve seen it. I know exactly what\u2019s going on here in the cases where it\u2019s happened. And then we\u2019ve had the self-esteem movement combined with outcome-based education.<\/p>\n

But the last thing, the one thing that was never gonna happen — we weren\u2019t gonna tolerate it; it wasn\u2019t gonna be permitted — is our young people were not going to suffer humiliation. If that meant shielding them from the fact that there were people who were more talented than them, screw it! What we\u2019ll do is we\u2019ll make sure the more talented are penalized. We\u2019ll make sure the smarter are penalized. But we\u2019re not gonna humiliate our young people, and we\u2019re gonna instill in them self-esteem. How are we gonna do that? <\/p>\n

No matter what they do, we\u2019re gonna tell \u2019em they\u2019re great!<\/p>\n

If they think 2 + 2 = 5, it is, until they figure out it\u2019s 4. But we\u2019re not gonna tell them. They might not be able to handle the fact that they\u2019re wrong. We\u2019re gonna applaud them. “Little Johnny, you\u2019re so good!” If they cuss out an umpire at a Little League, we\u2019ll say, “Little Johnny, you\u2019re such a wonderful little boy standing up for yourself. That evil umpire obviously didn\u2019t know what he was talking about.”<\/p>\n

“Right, Mom! Right, Mom! I also told him something else, something that you always tell Dad to do.”<\/p>\n

“Well, Little Johnny, I don\u2019t want to go quite that far, but…”<\/p>\n

“Well, I did, Mom — and you applaud me.”<\/p>\n

Self-esteem. Little Johnny and Little Mary are perfect little angels, so forth. I don\u2019t know where that started. Then you got Conflict Resolution 101, and then you throw all this stuff with the multicultural curricula you get in public school, and what you end up with is exactly what we see here at the University of Missouri, and every other college campus. They\u2019ve lied about rapes, or they have laid about this predatory male culture all over the place. Look at all the hoaxes. Look at all of the abject lies the left is telling — in order to do what? Advance its political agenda. What\u2019s all this about?<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: All right. I\u2019m told now that Melissa Click, the mass media studies professor, was not fired, that she resigned from the job. Actually, “a courtesy appointment,” they call it. She resigned, said she got a lot of death threats. She\u2019s keeping her real job, her paying job, whatever. But she says she was getting a lot of death threats. Of course she was getting death threats. Don\u2019t you know that\u2019s what happens?<\/line><\/p>\n

Stand up for decency and justice, and of course here come these rabid Republicans with death threats! Of course that\u2019s what happens. Another hoax. Another pack of BS. And she says she\u2019s worried about the safety of her family. Well, I would be, too, if I was depending on her. Sorry, folks. This is how the New York Times reported her symbolic resignation. Quote, “University of Missouri Professor Who Confronted Photographer Quits Journalism Post.” She wanted to keep the media away from the protestors, and the media…<\/p>\n

Can you imagine how confused they were? <\/p>\n

“Hey, we\u2019re your buddies in this! You\u2019re protesting against the university? We\u2019re trying to get rid of \u2019em, too. We\u2019re on the same side of the aisle here. What do you mean, you won\u2019t let us in?” She wouldn\u2019t let \u2019em in. From the Columbia Missourian, the local rag: “A courtesy appointment allows members of one academic unit to serve on graduate committees for students from other academic units. Click teaches mass media in the Communication Department. The School of Journalism is a separate entity.” That\u2019s right, \u2019cause she couldn\u2019t get in there. Exactly. If you go into mass communications, it means you didn\u2019t get into the J-school. <\/p>\n

RUSH: James in Houston. Thank you for call, sir. Great to have you here. Hi.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hey, Rush. Happy Veterans Day.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Thank you. Thank you very much. Same to you, sir.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Rush, going back to the Missouri incident and no pun intended, this thing has kind of smelled from the start. Rush, I grew up in New Orleans, and ended up migrating up to northeast Kansas where I played college football, and numerous, numerous teammates were from Missouri. And I can tell you that back in the early to mid-eighties, you know, my brother and I were just struck by the racial tolerance that existed in that part of the country. And when all this started coming about, you know, in the last week or so, I had just happened to see the ESPN 30 for 30 special on coach Bill McCartney from Colorado<\/a>. And they interviewed several of the black players that played for Coach McCartney in the eighties and nineties. And, Rush, I gotta tell you, I think part of this hoax is we\u2019ve victimed by a Biden in that this is all plagiarized. When you listen to what these kids from Colorado were saying, it\u2019s word-for-word the Missouri kids, players and students were saying. I mean, almost word-for-word, and it struck me, you know, that they couldn\u2019t even be creative here and come up with their own set of issues and grievances. They just plagiarized these Colorado kids.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, you know what? It\u2019s an excellent point, but it isn\u2019t plagiarizing. It\u2019s the playbook for the left. I mean, the left runs these things. The radical left runs these things. The students, no matter how energetic and enthused they get, are the pawns. They\u2019re kids, for crying out loud. They get walked into it, walked into it, talked into it, roped into it. They get juiced on the power they claim to have or they\u2019re told that they have in doing these kind of things, but there is a playbook for this kind of community organizing and social upheaval, and I\u2019m glad you noticed it. You\u2019re not telling people what the nature of the problem was at the University of Colorado back in the days when McCartney was coach there. But there were all kinds. In addition to the racial problems, man, there was all kinds. I mean, cheerleaders were taking recruits out on sex parties. And maybe not even cheerleaders, but it was, well, it was pretty encompassing, shall we say. But you\u2019re right to notice that the technique and the words and the phrases, they\u2019re timeless. Obama used \u2019em.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Jennifer in St. Louis. Hey, Jennifer, I\u2019m glad you called. Great to have you with us on the program. Hi.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh, I\u2019m so glad I got on today. I am an educator here in St. Louis, a suburb of St. Louis, south of St. Louis, and —<\/p>\n

RUSH: What suburb?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Fenton.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Fenton. Yes. I\u2019ve driven through it countless times.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah. I\u2019m an elementary schoolteacher, and I was coming home from — I got sick at school, and I have a daughter who is a freshman at the Mizzou who had to come home because she felt threatened. She is a part of the Greek there at Mizzou, a sorority, and I could have been on your show all day today.<\/line><\/p>\n

RUSH: Wait, wait, wait, wait. You have a daughter in a sorority who\u2019s not afraid of the men, she\u2019s afraid of the racist climate?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh. Oh, yeah. What happened was — and this is straight out of the horse\u2019s mouth — what happened was apparently there\u2019s been some chatter on social media that a select group of blacks in Columbia — I\u2019m not saying that they\u2019re students — are going after the Greek system because those are the white privileged people.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah. I would totally believe that. And she felt threatened by that.<\/p>\n

CALLER: That is not language that my daughter would normally use, so I guess she got that off social media. She is home today —<\/p>\n

RUSH: I bet she\u2019s probably heard it being shouted on campus. White privilege is the new phrase that\u2019s used to justify every racial protest in the country today, white privilege. I\u2019ve had stories on this program, Jennifer, of male college students feeling guilty over the white privilege they\u2019ve had. They\u2019ve come out, they\u2019ve talked about it, the professors are making them feel guilty at all their white privilege. It\u2019s a seminal, fundamental aspect of college education these days.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right. Well, in a glimmer of hope at the end of your program today, there are a lot of kids like my daughter who cannot believe the fact that the media is telling lies. I mean, she is getting an education, all right. It may not be the one we sent her there for.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You know what, Jennifer, I\u2019m out of time here, but you\u2019ve got to tell her something. Tell her not to forget this. And tell her it\u2019s this way every day in the media about other things, too, in politics, not just what\u2019s going on at Mizzou. Make sure this is a learning, teachable moment that she doesn\u2019t forget.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
