If I understand what you\u2019re gonna hear here, if I heard it right, this is one for the ages.  This is Jay in Seattle.  Jay, I think I\u2019m really glad you called.  How are you?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I\u2019m fine.  I\u2019m a dyed-in-the-wool conservative, and I\u2019ve always been a fan of the Rush Limbaugh program.  You\u2019re a ray of sanity through the fog.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Thank you.  I appreciate that very much.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  You\u2019re welcome.  Yeah.  Well, I was calling because, as you may know, the folks around Seattle, it\u2019s kind of like a liberal echo chamber, and so most of the people I work with and just acquaintances, the majority of them are die-hard liberals.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I know, I\u2019ve been there.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_94475\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushDittoheadNationJoblessSeattle.jpg\"\/><BR\/>CALLER:  They defy common sense.  You can\u2019t really engage in a conversation with them.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I know.  And I know how frustrating it is to live amongst that.  I really do.  I\u2019ve done that.  Sacramento was the same way.  Not when I left, though.  When I got there &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  &#8212; that\u2019s how it was.  When I left it wasn\u2019t.  I don\u2019t know what\u2019s happened since.  But it changed when I was there.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah.  Well, I mean, conservatism is common sense, and it just defies logic, some of the rationale that people come up with to try to defend the indefensible, so it just amazes me.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, anyway, what happened?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah.  So I went to get my teeth cleaned, and I\u2019m just sitting there going through the process &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Okay, hang on just a second.  That means, for those of you in Rio Linda, he went to the dentist.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  So he\u2019s at the dentist\u2019s office.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah.  So I\u2019m at the dentist\u2019s office and it\u2019s a nice place. It\u2019s in Seattle and they have televisions in front of each chair. But they have one radio that\u2019s kind of on the windowsill in front, and I asked Nicole, she asked me, &#8220;What do you want to watch?&#8221; I said, &#8220;Can you put on Rush Limbaugh?&#8221;  And she said, &#8220;Sure,&#8221; walked over, turned the radio to your show, and it was cruising along.  Then about a minute later this woman walks over and turns the channel and just walks away.  And I looked at Nicole, I said, &#8220;What\u2019s up with that?&#8221;  And so she went over, turned the channel back, and then continues with the cleaning.<\/p>\n<p>Then this woman comes over again, changes it, and my hygienist says, &#8220;Hey, wait a minute.&#8221;  And then they get in this argument.  She\u2019s saying something about, &#8220;I don\u2019t want to hear that tripe,&#8221; and then she started yelling, and then the boss, the head dentist, he comes over and gets involved in it, and he says, &#8220;What\u2019s going on?&#8221;  And then she starts yelling at him. Anyway, a few words went back and forth, and then he told her to roll it up, and he fired her on the spot.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  He did?  He fired her?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  He fired her on the spot.  I mean, she was out of there before I was done getting my teeth cleaned.  It was hilarious.  And Nicole, I didn\u2019t get to talk to the head dentist, but Nicole told me that they had other issues where she couldn\u2019t stand watching Fox News.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  You know, that is great.  Normally what would happen in a place like Seattle is that the hygienist you first asked to turn the radio to this show would kindly ask you, &#8220;Sir, would you mind if we turned it to something else?  What\u2019s-her-face over here, she\u2019s just gonna make trouble, it\u2019d be really simpler if we just &#8211;&#8221;  But they didn\u2019t do that.  They turned the show back on, the woman comes back in, starts raising holy hell, and I can\u2019t believe it, she\u2019s sent packing.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Fired her on the spot.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  She must have been really, I mean, her attitude must have really been caustic and mean or whatever to cause that to happen. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah.  Hey, I\u2019ve heard rumors that you get special Apple laptops with the Rush Limbaugh logo on them.  How do I get one of them?<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_94470\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushOnAirRadioDittoshot.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH:  Well, they\u2019re not laptops.  They are iPads. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Okay.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  We have EIB engraved iPads, except I don\u2019t have any now.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Okay.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  The reason I don\u2019t have any now is because Apple is gonna be releasing new ones sometime this fall.  And I don\u2019t want to restock a bunch of iPads that by the time I get \u2019em and engrave \u2019em and give \u2019em away are the old versions.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  So I\u2019m waiting for the new ones to come out before we buy a stock of \u2019em and send \u2019em out to get \u2019em engraved.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Well, can someone buy one? I mean, if I were interested, \u2019cause that would just grate on everybody, I mean, if I were able to have a Rush Limbaugh &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  We\u2019re not an authorized Apple reseller. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Okay.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  We can\u2019t sell them.  I wouldn\u2019t anyway.  We don\u2019t engrave that many.  They\u2019re meant to be special because of being rare and that kind of thing.  But Mr. Snerdley got your phone number, so if and when we do this again, we\u2019ll be in touch and we\u2019ll let you know what you might have to do in order to procure one, if we do it again.  I probably will.  I do this kind of stuff on the spur of the moment.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Seattle media, I guarantee you, Seattle media is now on the warpath to try to find out who it was that ended up getting canned at the dentist\u2019s office.  You wait, unfair, how could they? I won\u2019t be surprised if they dig it up by the end of the day.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I guarantee you, Seattle media is, even as we speak, trying to track down that woman and they\u2019re gonna find out what happened here.  That woman\u2019s gonna become one of the biggest heroines Seattle has ever seen, willing to lose her job to make sure the dentist\u2019s office did not have to have this program blaring on the radio.  You wait.  You wait.  She\u2019s gonna be a hero.  They\u2019re tracking her down even now.  You know damn well they are.
