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

RUSH: Yeah, that\u2019s right, I just remembered. I promised everybody I was gonna tell \u2019em what fun it would be to look at the upcoming military incursion in Syria and Iraq as a lib would look at it. See, I got so many things banging around the inside of my cranial cavity. But it can be fun to talk like a lib. Okay, so the libs have learned what? No, no, we\u2019ll get back to the NFL<\/a> here in just a jiffy. The libs have learned what? I mean, after being driven insane with hatred for five years over the Iraq war,<\/a> what have they learned? They learned last night that to save his presidency, Barack Obama\u2019s gonna go back in. (laughing) And he\u2019s gonna do it with drones and highly trained Iraqi boots on the ground. (laughing) <\/p>\n

So how\u2019s the left gonna look at this? Well, a good liberal, the first thing a good liberal would want to know is what is the carbon footprint of our military operation going to be, and is it worth the climate change interruption or climate destruction that this is going to cause. And are there any endangered species? I know it\u2019s desert, but are there any endangered species like maybe an albino sand rodent that might end up being wiped out in this operation. We must be very careful. And then a good lib would ask if the UN has signed off on this. Will there be UN peacekeepers, blue helmeted people. <\/line><\/p>\n

Has Obama taken steps to ensure that a sufficient number of gays, lesbians, transgenders, and women will be involved in the operation in order to make it inclusive and diversified? And what about the name of the military operation? Operation Pinprick? Operation No Boots on the Ground? Operation Passes the Global Test? Operation Inclusive? (laughing) Operation You Didn\u2019t Build That? (laughing) ‘Cause I think, you know, if Obama is gonna sully the reputation of the Democrat Party with another war he at least ought to do it with sensitivity and compassion and make sure the force is diversified and all that. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: To the phones, to Ariel in Raleigh, North Carolina. I\u2019m really glad you waited. Thank you for your patience. Hello.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hello. One thing just to really, you know, just really quickly, \u2019cause I gotta do something here really quick, you know, but I was wondering do you think ISIS will attack, either if it\u2019s today or sometime in the near future? Personally I don\u2019t really think today \u2019cause, you know, kind of, one, doesn\u2019t really match, really, the time they usually would attack, but…<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, last night President Obama said there\u2019s no credible intelligence that they are gonna attack our homeland. And that\u2019s good enough for me. (Coughing) Excuse me. <\/p>\n

No, I have no idea. That\u2019s the point. Nobody knows. We supposedly have people that do know in our intel community. I don\u2019t know. I think this, Ariel. I keep they will eventually many times. Whenever they think they can get away with it I think they\u2019ll try it. I think they\u2019re preparing now, crossing the border. We have to be thinking this way. We\u2019d be foolish not to. I mean, today specifically, I don\u2019t think they\u2019re gonna do anything on a day we would expect it to happen, like today. That would just be my guess. But you gotta be prepared for anything. They mean it. They\u2019re dead serious about their intentions, where we are concerned. <\/line><\/p>\n

One more quickly. Janet in Phoenix. I\u2019m glad you called. Great to hear you.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh, Rush, what a pleasure it is to talk to you.<\/p>\n

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

CALLER: You know, I was telling your screener — I\u2019ll make this quick because I know you\u2019re almost through here. I was telling your screener there were two reasons for calling. One was, even though I voted for Bill Clinton twice, when you do your Bill Clinton —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Impersonation.<\/p>\n

CALLER: — impersonation, I just find myself practically rolling on the floor.<\/p>\n

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

CALLER: I want to let you know, that is so entertaining.<\/p>\n

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

CALLER: The other the other issue is a little more serious. Do you recall how desperately Obama tried to get into Syria about a year ago so that he could —<\/p>\n

RUSH: No, he didn\u2019t. See, I\u2019m glad you called. Obama drew a red line last year and dared Assad to cross it and didn\u2019t back it up, didn\u2019t do anything. A year ago, we were about to make the mistake of going in and essentially arming ISIS! We were wrong in assuming that Assad was gassing people in Syria. He wasn\u2019t. It was ISIS. But we didn\u2019t. That was close. That was almost a disaster, and it\u2019s a good thing that we didn\u2019t. <\/p>\n

Now, the Iraqi army is going to go into Syria, I guess. Just have to wait and see, boots on the ground, somebody\u2019s boots are gonna be there. Obama promised it ain\u2019t gonna be our boots \u2019cause we\u2019re not going back to Iraq even though we are. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
