Great to have you with us, sir.  Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Raspberry Two If By Tea mega dittos.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  You like that flavor, eh?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  It\u2019s my favorite &#8212; with sugar, I might add.  Rush, I grew up Catholic, and the sanctity of human life has always been ingrained in me, and it troubles me that the pontiff has been talking about climate change so much, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=5822\">but where is he on the Planned Parenthood debacle<\/a>?<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"eZObject_108689\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/PP-Scandal-and-Pope-2.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH:  Hmm.  Now, that\u2019s an interesting question, Scott.  Global warming is, of course, a global thing, and this Planned Parenthood is obviously just a silly domestic social dispute here in the United States.  Is the pope really expected to get involved in these kind of fringe social arguments in the world\u2019s lone superpower?<\/line><\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I would think that he is the voice of the Catholic Church.  He\u2019s also the Vicar of Christ, and he should be standing out there from the mountaintops, from the top of Rome saying how wrong this is.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, I don\u2019t have a direct line to the Vatican.  I hadn\u2019t even expected the pope to speak up on it.  I don\u2019t know why.  I guess I\u2019m not surprised that he hasn\u2019t.  Scott, you said you\u2019ve been a Catholic since forever.  In  your experience, are Catholics waiting for the pope to speak up on this? Is it something they\u2019re hoping to hear?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I believe so, Rush, because our archbishop here in St. Augustine, Florida &#8211;just about 30 miles south of us was very strong during the last election.  He wrote to the Catholic parishes saying that we should stand for Catholic values.  And so I would hope he would speak out, and, you know, he\u2019s been very vocal on climate change.  I believe he should equally be as vocal on this issue, because it\u2019s very important.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, you\u2019re right about climate change.  I mean, they are putting all the marbles on that.  I mean, big, big, big confab at the Vatican later this year on that.  I mean, even well known climatologist Bill de Blasio, the mayor of New York City, is going to attend this, and so is the governor of California, Jerry Brown, who I don\u2019t know if you heard this, I mentioned it yesterday.<\/p>\n<p>Jerry Brown, in an effort to get people\u2019s attention &#8212; he\u2019s trying to get $68 billion high-speed rail system built from Los Angeles to the Bay Area.  Nobody wants it, nobody needs it. They\u2019ve got plenty of other uses for $68 billion in California.  So, in an effort to get people\u2019s attention on this, Governor Moonbeam said, (Paraphrasing), &#8220;Hey, folks, if you don\u2019t yet understand what I\u2019m talk, we\u2019re talking about extinction here.  We are talking about extinction of the human race.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, folks, the latest expedition to Antarctica to study global warming has been delayed, because of an unexpected amount of new ice in Antarctica, preventing the expedition from getting where they need to go.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Scott in Jacksonville, Florida.
