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

RUSH: Okay, let\u2019s hit the phones. It\u2019s time. Here\u2019s Mike in St. Louis. Great to have you, sir, and I\u2019m really glad you waited. Welcome to the program.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Thanks, Rush. Can we start referring to Barack Obama as an “Islamic terrorism denier”?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Uh, feel free.<\/p>\n

CALLER: (chuckles)<\/p>\n

RUSH: Feel free, if you would like to.<\/p>\n

CALLER: If they want to call us “climate change deniers,” why not?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Islamic terrorism denier. It works for me. You\u2019re a caller, and we have First Amendment here, and if that\u2019s how you wish to refer to him, I\u2019m not gonna Rudy Giuliani you.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Thanks. I appreciate that.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You bet.<\/p>\n

CALLER: That\u2019s my comment.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, that\u2019s it? That\u2019s it. Okay.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I got a lot of other things I could say but let\u2019s keep it brief.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Okay. All right. That\u2019s good. Call back for those other things. Let\u2019s stop while we\u2019re ahead. That\u2019s really wise: Brevity is the soul of wit and you nailed it. Everybody gets the point. I appreciate the call. Mandy, Jacksonville, Florida, welcome to the program. Hi.<\/line><\/p>\n

CALLER: Hi. Referring to the president\u2019s speech yesterday and his remarks about winning the hearts and minds and giving them jobs and stuff, did it ever cross your mind that maybe he\u2019s opening the door towards a kind of Muslim sensitivity training? Like indoctrination? Like bringing it to public schools? Like eventually they would start teaching our kids to be sensitive to it, on a larger scale. Almost like how liberalism works, where they put their people in strategic places so they can start teaching the young ones and all of a sudden it\u2019s the okay thing.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, you know something? It\u2019s an interesting observation. It\u2019s an interesting observation that you have there, \u2019cause I was just telling Mr. Snerdley, I was trying to think back to all those times Bill Clinton was telling us we needed to understand Timothy McVeigh. Remember those times? You remember those days when Bill Clinton said, “We got be very careful. McVeigh has a legitimate grievance. It\u2019s called Ruby Ridge and Waco, Texas, the Branch Davidian compound.” (interruption) What, Clinton didn\u2019t do that? <\/p>\n

Well, I could have sworn that Clinton asked for understanding for McVeigh. I could have sworn… (interruption) Oh, that\u2019s right. He blamed me. I forgot. He blamed me for the Oklahoma City Bombing. Sorry. Exactly right. Oh, and you remember the time where Clinton asked for understanding for Saddam Hussein and when we bombed the aspirin factory in Sudan, remember that? (interruption) It didn\u2019t happen? That\u2019s right. And you tell me that FDR never told us that we had to try to understand the Japanese? (interruption) And the Germans? (interruption) <\/p>\n

He did? (interruption) FDR said we had to defeat the Japanese? How? Killing them? (interruption) FDR said that? You\u2019re kidding me. (interruption) Ho! Wow. So FDR never did do a series of summits or anything attempting to raise consciousness for the grievances of the imperial government of Japan? (interruption) You have a point. We killed our way out of World War II. We actually did, with a couple of nuclear bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. <\/p>\n

Yeah, why I\u2019m getting confused here? Why do I think that Clinton told us we needed to have a measure of understanding for the grievances of McVeigh? And remember the Michigan Militia? They were being creamed. The media was ripping \u2019em to shreds. I remember Clinton in a number of his speeches\/seminars told us, “We must not jump to conclusions. These are legitimate Americans, legitimate grievances, and we must understand them.” (interruption)<\/p>\n

He didn\u2019t do that, either? (interruption) Wow. Well, I\u2019ve been sitting here trying to think. Correct me if I\u2019m wrong on this, but I don\u2019t recall — I really don\u2019t recall — Obama being so passionate about anything as this, defending Islam. I just don\u2019t remember it. Maybe he has been passionate in defending other things. But I think our caller from Jacksonville is worried that this could be the beginning of sensitivity training toward Muslims and Islam in the schools. <\/p>\n

If I\u2019m not mistaken, that kind of already happens in an unofficial way. But Obama\u2019s doing it himself. Who needs a classroom? That\u2019s what Obama\u2019s actually doing here is sensitivity training, on a nationwide basis. Let\u2019s see, who\u2019s next? Melanie in Williamstown, Kentucky. It\u2019s great to have you on the EIB Network.<\/p>\n

CALLER: … targeted and, you know, also, my other point was —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Have you been…?<\/p>\n

CALLER: — that he —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Wait a minute. You need to start the beginning. You\u2019ve thought you were on the air for five minutes and you weren\u2019t.<\/p>\n

CALLER: …the Islam religion to terrorism, and the reason he\u2019s doing that is because Islamic religion equals terrorism, then freedom of religion… If it\u2019s not religion, then freedom of religion or separation of religion wouldn\u2019t apply to \u2019em in a way, too. See what I mean?<\/p>\n

RUSH: No, because I missed the first two minutes of what you said.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You\u2019ve been speaking, obviously, as though you\u2019ve thought you were on the air when you weren\u2019t. You must have misunderstood Snerdley when you told you he was telling you to hang on and you thought it meant go.<\/line><\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh! Okay.<\/p>\n

RUSH: So you\u2019ve been talking to nobody. When he said, “Melanie, you\u2019re up,” you were in the middle of a sentence.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yes. I think that Obama\u2019s passion is because he is a Muslim. He had a Muslim father, a Muslim stepdad, and what I would call him is an imposter. He kept being reluctant to equate the religion, Islamic religion to terrorism, and if the Islamic religion isn\u2019t terrorism, then there\u2019s a fine line about freedom of religion and their freedom in America if their religion equals terrorism.<\/p>\n

RUSH: So you…? I think I understand what you\u2019re saying. You think the president\u2019s a Muslim.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yes.<\/p>\n

RUSH: We\u2019ll leave that over there. We have a lot of callers that think that.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah.<\/p>\n

RUSH: But beside the facts, are you trying to make the point that no matter how hard he tries to deny it, whether Islam is a religion of terror or not, that all of the terrorists are Islamic? Is that your point?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, a lot of the… Yeah, terrorists are Islamic, and it\u2019s the religion. That\u2019s their religion, and so how is that going to —<\/p>\n

RUSH: No, but Obama\u2019s saying it isn\u2019t. No, Obama\u2019s saying it\u2019s not the religion —<\/p>\n

CALLER: That\u2019s why he\u2019s saying it.<\/p>\n

RUSH: — that these people are perverting their religion.<\/p>\n

CALLER: He also mentioned surveillance in his speech yesterday. So, yes, I think that out of this summit — changing the subject. It\u2019s gonna be that he\u2019s coming out of this summit with policies that are pro-Muslim, that are about surveillance, about being racist, about them being targeted. So that\u2019s all I wanted to say, those two points that —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Let me take over here, because here\u2019s the best I can do with this, folks. Because look at the woman here. She\u2019s trying to understand Obama and is as confused as she can be — and if she\u2019s not, we are. So wherever you look, there\u2019s confusion. I think a lot of people are confused trying to understand exactly what all this is and what it isn\u2019t and what we\u2019re not supposed to say, what we\u2019re not supposed to think, and what we are supposed to say and think. I try to stay current, for the life of me.<\/p>\n

I try to learn everything as best I can so that I can do one of the things that I do best: Make the complex understandable. But for the life of me, I do not know what “strategic patience” means, for example. That is a name recently given to our foreign policy. I don\u2019t know, and I\u2019m being dead-straight honest here. I don\u2019t know where this president thinks the fight is. I don\u2019t know what the president is thinking beyond arguing with straw men. At war with Islam? Nobody is saying and nobody ever has said we are at war with Islam. <\/p>\n

Everybody has bent over backwards not to say that, and yet he\u2019s acting as though it\u2019s said constantly by everybody. What confuses me is, we\u2019re told, “Islam not a religion of violence and terror; it\u2019s a religion of peace,” and yet the terrorism that is happening in the world today is happening in honor of or in association with — according to the people committing the acts of violence — a specific religion. So when that is said, when that conclusion\u2019s drawn, here comes Obama. (paraphrased)<\/p>\n

“Not so fast! Remember the Crusades? Not so fast! Remember the Jews? Not so fast! Remember the Hindus?” So there\u2019s a moral equivalence here that the president is hell-bent on making sure everybody understands. But I don\u2019t know who in this country ever said we are at war with Islam. But I think this is classic. This is the reason, people like David Brooks and others in the conservative media complex think that Obama\u2019s brilliant, because he speaks like an intellectual.<\/p>\n

He speaks like they do, and he\u2019s articulate, and he pauses at the right times to make you think he\u2019s in deep, deep thought, and never says anything that isn\u2019t carefully considered, and that\u2019s the mark of a brilliant intellectual. Well, I\u2019m sorry, but I think it\u2019s incoherent. He talks about jobs, he talks about poverty, he talks about extremists — and while all that\u2019s going on he doesn\u2019t talk about Jews being murdered in Europe. He is not talking about Christians being beheaded in droves in Libya. <\/p>\n

He doesn\u2019t talk about others being beheaded in Syria. He does not talk about people being burned alive in Iraq! He snubs the prime minister of Israel\u2019s speech, and yet lectures us to be tolerant of all faiths. Yet let Benjamin Netanyahu come to the United States to speak to a joint session of Congress, and he gets the cold shoulder from Obama. The president says that Muslims in the United States feel targeted. So far, there\u2019s no evidence of that. <\/p>\n

He says not a word how Jews and Christians must feel as news floods in of Jews and Christians shot, beheaded, and burned alive. Muslims are targeted, but not in the United States. They\u2019re targeted elsewhere by other Muslims, but not in this country. They\u2019re being targeted by fellow Muslims overseas. And then in the midst of all this incoherence and reluctance to talk about certain people and the gruesome ends they are encountering, he wants us to look for root causes of barbarity towards Muslims. <\/p>\n

But he refuses to admit what it is! He tells us to look for root causes and then denies the root causes that are right in front of everybody\u2019s faces and makes them up! Lack of jobs, poverty, all of these things easily dispelled, easily refuted. While all this is going on, the president has opened America\u2019s borders, giving American jobs to illegal immigrants! Now he wants to find jobs for radical Islamists. Where did he learn all of this? Far from being brilliantly intellectually conceived and executed, this is incoherence. <\/p>\n

How in the world can you have a summit where you focus on ending violent extremism and not talk about the Christians being beheaded, the Iraqis being burned alive, the Jews being murdered just because they\u2019re Jews in Paris? How can you not bring that up? Obama tells the world not just one faith has been responsible, that Christians have blood on their hands and he thinks the Israeli Jews had blood on their hands .<\/p>\n

He thinks we don\u2019t see how twisted this is?<\/p>\n

And then to top it all off, he talks about legitimate grievances by terrorists?<\/p>\n

For crying out loud, what the hell is that? They\u2019re the ones that have grievances? Is he playing with a full deck? Did he get hit by a golf ball in the head playing with Tiger Woods that time, or has he got Jeremiah Wright\u2019s sermons going through his mind when he goes to these seminars? I don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: No, no, no, folks, look, we\u2019ve got this massive summit, right? Understanding and stopping or whatever the hell it is, countering violent extremism. Who is the enemy? Christians? Jews? Everyone? No one? Why isn\u2019t the commander-in-chief willing to command all the assets at his disposal to fight a significant destabilizing army in the Middle East with designs on Europe, Africa, and beyond? Why is there not a focus on stopping this, instead of telling us we must understand it and telling us about the legitimate grievances that they have? <\/p>\n

Is he not aware what\u2019s going on in Libya? What war does he think he\u2019s winning? Better yet, what war does he think he can\u2019t win by going to war? He talks of being flexible with Vladimir Putin after his reaction in 2012. It appears, I mean, to casual observers it looks like he\u2019s doing his damnedest to help Iran become a nuclear power, because who are we to say that they can\u2019t. I don\u2019t know. Ted Cruz said he\u2019s an apologist for radical Islamic terrorists, and that\u2019s exactly what it sounded like in these speeches he gave over these two days of this summit, the three days. Ted Cruz: Obama an apologist for radical Islamic terrorists.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s Chuck in Plymouth, Nebraska. Chuck, I\u2019m glad you waited. You\u2019re next on the EIB Network. Hello.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hey, Rush. Good to talk to you again.<\/p>\n

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

CALLER: Yeah. Just a real quick comment. You know, it\u2019s really ironic, or incredulous I think would be the better word, where the White House was saying, you know, for these Islamic terrorist groups to really combat all this is to go out and create jobs and give these young people something better to do with their time. I think it\u2019s crazy with that kind of mind-set. I mean, what\u2019s happening here in America, then, is the fact that, you know, he\u2019s eliminating all of our jobs. What\u2019s that gonna do with our young people here in America, then?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, what do you mean, what do you mean, what do you mean, eliminating our jobs? What do you mean by that? <\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, cutting jobs, you know, I mean, just doing all they can to get rid of jobs in America, the White House is doing that.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You mean Obamacare, the converting of full time to part time —<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah.<\/p>\n

RUSH: — the unemployment —<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, yeah. Well, no, no, we\u2019re different. We\u2019ve got a big welfare state, and we\u2019ve got a very compassionate Democrat Party, and we can take care of people who don\u2019t work, and we don\u2019t have terrorists. I don\u2019t know.
