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

RUSH: Here\u2019s Vickie in Brooksville, Kentucky, as we head back to the phones on Open Line Friday. Glad you waited. Great to have you here. Hi.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Thank you, Mr. Limbaugh. It\u2019s a pleasure.<\/p>\n

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

CALLER: I am calling you to officially bow out of politics. I am so sick of what is going on. This Cochran thing was the last straw<\/a>. I can\u2019t take it anymore. My country isn\u2019t my country. Laws don\u2019t mean anything. These people are downright evil; I don\u2019t care if they\u2019re Democrats or Republicans. There\u2019s a handful of people that I still believe in. Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, maybe Rand Paul, although my very own senator is getting a little iffy on me. I don\u2019t know what to do. I can\u2019t vote for anybody. I don\u2019t believe anybody. They all lie. I just don\u2019t know where I am anymore.<\/p>\n

I feel like I woke up on, I don\u2019t know, Mars one day. I can\u2019t take it anymore. I\u2019ve got a seven-year-old grandson that I am terrified for. Nothing is the way that it\u2019s supposed to be. Up is down, down is up, inside is outside. I don\u2019t know where to turn. And you can\u2019t trust anybody, anybody. When the Democrats and the Republicans are getting together to undo elections, what do you do? Boehner and all the rest of the Republicans are doing nothing. Do they think they\u2019re gonna win? Does Cochran really think that the black people that voted for him for this primary are gonna vote for him for senator?<\/p>\n

RUSH: I don\u2019t think he knows they voted for him.<\/line><\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh, I mean, then he needs to be put into an asylum.<\/p>\n

RUSH: No. We are already in it. You have just described yourself as a resident of an asylum.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yes.<\/p>\n

RUSH: That\u2019s exactly what it sounded like. You feel like you\u2019re in a straitjacket.<\/p>\n

CALLER: That\u2019s exactly how I feel. That\u2019s exactly how I feel. I mean, I have tears in my eyes. I don\u2019t know which way to turn anymore. The people that are decent and honest — I mean, look at what they did to the poor governor of Wisconsin. I mean, it\u2019s just now coming out today, I saw a little blurb on Fox News that the prosecutor actually came out and said, gee whiz, we didn\u2019t mean to say that he had actually done anything wrong. We were just reporting to the public —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, what a crock.<\/p>\n

CALLER: — what we tried to do.<\/p>\n

RUSH: They were forced here, and it was not by the Republican Party, by the way. They were forced by conservative media, these phony baloney Democrat prosecutors, into admitting there was never a case. They never had a case against Scott Walker. They tried to put forth — you\u2019re exactly right. I know exactly how you feel. It\u2019s a profoundly frustrating thing. But the country\u2019s worth saving, is the thing. It\u2019s worth trying to save. Have to try.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
