Thank you for waiting.  Great to have you on the program.  Hi.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Thanks, Rush, for having me.  I wanted to make two points about the sound bite you<a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=9461\"> played at the top of the first hour where he had said that you don\u2019t really believe all the things you say on the show<\/a>; you just say it to gin up your listeners.  I think the first point is, <a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=9458\">when we\u2019re naive about someone<\/a>, when we don\u2019t know, we\u2019re ignorant to a person, we assume people are the way we are.  So, because that\u2019s how they are on the left, they don\u2019t really believe it, and, you know, that\u2019s just part of their script. That\u2019s part of their shtick. It\u2019s part of their spiel. So that\u2019s what they assume that you are because they really don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  So you think that they\u2019re projecting on me the fact that they really don\u2019t believe what they claim to believe?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I think so.  And that\u2019s the second part of my point.  You had someone on months ago, and I don\u2019t know if it was someone who wrote a book or just, you know, a very articulate caller. But they articulated this point so well and it stuck with me, that not just the left, but in lots of political arenas, when someone truly believes in something and they accept it and they own it as part of who they are, that person then allows other people to be free to have different opinions or disagree with them because it doesn\u2019t bother them because they truly believe in what they &#8212; you know, whatever the issue is.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"eZObject_90760\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushDittoheadNationLiberalLies.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH:  Right.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  The left does not believe anything.  They are constantly bullied and pressured into vocalizing and saying and acting in a certain <a href=\"http:\/\/web-dev03.bur1.premiereradio.net:8150\/daily\/2014\/05\/05\/the_world_according_to_carp_political_correctness_spreads_like_a_disease\">way that\u2019s so PC<\/a>, and they have to cave constantly. And it makes them so angry at us, who will not cave, and that\u2019s why they\u2019re so angry.  We will not cave.  We believe in what we believe in, and so they do not understand that.  That\u2019s why they\u2019re angry.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, now, this is fascinating to me because I think, in discussing this, we\u2019re gonna have to admit that there are varying degrees and kinds of liberals.  You\u2019ve got the true believers and the leaders, and then you\u2019ve got the rank-and-file, the Asian carp &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Agreed.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  And then you\u2019ve got the followers. They\u2019re just trying to be cool, trying to be hip.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Right.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  And in every different group of liberalism there are differing or varying degrees of belief.  I think that there are a lot of liberals who believe everything they say, but I think &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  But not the majority of them.  They don\u2019t.  They have to go along to get along because they can\u2019t handle the pressure.  They can\u2019t accept being called different or, you know, just like the way they attack us and they &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, no, the point &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  They can\u2019t articulate their point.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  No, no.  Look, it\u2019s a really great point to say that anybody who is utterly confident of what they believe will be totally open to other ideas.  And in fact &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Right.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"eZObject_90757\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushLibsVsAmerQuestion.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH:  &#8212; enjoy discussing them with people.  You\u2019re absolutely right about.  If you are totally confident in what you believe, you don\u2019t care, bring \u2019em on. You\u2019ll be glad to take a shot at it and try to change their mind. Or you\u2019ll be happy to tell \u2019em why you think what you think.  And your point is, leftists don\u2019t want to go there. They can\u2019t go there because they can\u2019t explain.  All they want to do is silence any opposition.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  That\u2019s correct.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  And I understand, particularly in young people, the peer pressure, for example, to support gay rights I\u2019m sure is intense on college campus.  And the peer pressure to be pro-choice and support abortion, I am sure the peer pressure is all over the place on this.  And if you have liberals who are wishy-washy and are totally obsessed with what people think of them, then, yeah, they\u2019re gonna go with the flow. Whatever they think the majority opinion is on something they\u2019ll go with it and take the path of least resonance, which is essentially what you\u2019re saying they do.  And then when it comes time for them to explain what they believe, they can\u2019t, is basically your point, right?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  That\u2019s part of my point.  Not only can they not articulate their position because they truly don\u2019t have one, you know, they\u2019re just accepting, caving to pressure, but not just not being able to articulate their point, but truly being angry &#8212; you know, when you see people on, you know, any &#8212; be able to tell someone from the left or someone from the right, you know, where they truly get angry. I think that anger comes from not a righteous indignation and, &#8220;Well, I really feel like this is the right issue so, you know, I\u2019m on the right side of this issue.&#8221; So it\u2019s truly angry because they really don\u2019t &#8212; again, they haven\u2019t truly accepted it, so they don\u2019t understand that there can be differences of opinion, and that\u2019s the anger.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"eZObject_90758\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushAmericanismVSLiberalismSHORT.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH:  Well, here\u2019s the risk that we\u2019re running if you think they don\u2019t really believe.  See, I think that it\u2019d be much easier to change their minds if they really didn\u2019t believe it.  I think it\u2019s a little bit more complicated than this.  I mean, A, there\u2019s a massive desire on the part of the left to just shut up people who don\u2019t agree with them.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Correct.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  They don\u2019t even want to consider there\u2019s an opposition.  But you say it\u2019s because they have no confidence in what they believe themselves.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Well, I\u2019m not saying that the top, you know, some of the leadership in the party or, you know, some of the hard-core, you were just talking about the 3%, some of the really hard-core leftists.  I think they believe it.  But, you know, the Millennials.  I see so many of these memes on Facebook, from, you know, the Millennials, and they\u2019ll go straight from, you know, conservative meme to a leftist, left-leaning meme, and I\u2019m like, &#8220;You don\u2019t even understand both sides of the issue.  You\u2019re here, but you can\u2019t argue both sides of it.  You really don\u2019t know.&#8221;  They buy into the low-information argument, and the crowd &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Okay, about that.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  &#8212; and they really can\u2019t articulate it.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Thanks much for the call.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Let me explain my hesitation in speaking to our last caller.  Aside from the fact that she can\u2019t hear me when I\u2019m talking \u2019cause of our phones.  I\u2019ll never understand this, but with our phone system, the callers can\u2019t hear me (or else they just keep talking over me, whichever\u2019s the case).  But nevertheless, when you are going to posit the opinion, put forth the opinion liberals don\u2019t really believe what they believe, that\u2019s dangerous.<\/p>\n<p>Because it makes them sound not quite as&#8230; Let\u2019s put it this way: It makes them sound a little bit more harmless than they are, and I don\u2019t think it\u2019s accurate to say they don\u2019t believe it.  Now, I understand with certain levels of liberalism, you\u2019ve got the low-information.  I think the low-information voting bloc out there is not even ideological.  The low-information, they\u2019re just like one of my dogs. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"eZObject_90759\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaHeadinSandAmericaPIX2.jpg\"\/><BR\/>They\u2019re just happily running around absorbing what happens with their mouths open all the time and their tongues hanging out &#8212; and whatever happens, happens, and that\u2019s it.  You\u2019ve got another level that thinks they know it all. The more they\u2019ve been educated, the more arrogant they become about it.  You\u2019ve got the fascists on the left. They\u2019re the ones who spearhead the effort to silence any opposition, and why do they silence the opposition? <\/line><\/p>\n<p>This goes to her theory.  Well, if you\u2019ll really confident about what you believe, you don\u2019t care whether people disagree with you.  If you\u2019re really confident, you\u2019ll take \u2019em on; you\u2019ll be happy to discuss things with \u2019em. The left is not eager to do that. It\u2019s not, I think, in a majority case, because they really don\u2019t believe it.  I think it stems more from an attitude of superiority than inferiority. <\/p>\n<p>I think a vast majority of them just think they\u2019re better. What they believe &#8220;is,&#8221; and there isn\u2019t any alternative to it.  Life\u2019s easier that way if you don\u2019t have to debate.  Again, depending the age, look at what they\u2019ve experienced growing up and what they\u2019ve been taught and what they\u2019ve been exposed to.  But the reason I was hesitant is because I think it\u2019s dangerous to assume that they don\u2019t really believe it. <\/p>\n<p>Believe what?  &#8220;The most important thing to tackle that they believe is?&#8221; Well, it\u2019s hard to categorize one thing, but these are not people that believe in freedom.  They may think they believe in it, but they don\u2019t.  They\u2019re totally opposed to it.  They are all for the massive use of government force to make sure people conform.  That\u2019s dangerous.  That\u2019s not something that\u2019s just lack of confidence, although it may be an ingredient. <\/p>\n<p>But I think of people who don\u2019t really believe what they believe as being ripe for persuasion.  These people aren\u2019t.  They are far more dangerous than just people who are not confident about what they believe.  That\u2019s why I constantly, you know, pound this desk hoping that people will learn what people\u2019s ideology means in terms of defining them, telling people who liberals are.<\/p>\n<p>If more and more people understood what a liberal is, more people would have known what Obama was gonna do.  It\u2019s just an oft-told lament of mine, and it remains one of the primary objectives here, is to ramp up the number of people who know. &#8216;Cause, I\u2019m telling you: Everything the left does is political. Everything. Everything they do is rooted in their ideology.  Everything.  <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Here\u2019s Mary Jo, Grand Rapids, Michigan.  I\u2019m glad you waited.  Welcome to the program.  Hi.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Hi, Rush.  I\u2019m calling regarding your previous female caller who said that liberals don\u2019t really believe the ideas that they put forward.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Yeah.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"eZObject_90779\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushCountryClassPIX.jpg\"\/><BR\/>CALLER:  And you said that you think they do in some ways, and I just wanted to point out a few ideas, or a few areas where you can see that they really don\u2019t.  They push equal pay for women, but even in the White House, Obama\u2019s administration does not pay women an equal salary to men.  Look at prominent environmentalists.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Okay, okay. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.  Now, this is fascinating.  I\u2019m glad that you called, because you have to understand: It would be perfectly conceivable and understandable for Obama to firmly believe that everybody else should be paying men and women equally, but the liberals at the top of the food chain are gonna exempt themselves from their own policies every chance they get.  So in that sense you might say they don\u2019t really believe it. I can see you making the point.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  But, Rush, if somebody believes &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  They use force. They use force to institute all this stuff on everybody else.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  But if you believe something, you live according to what you believe.  That is the definition of a believer, whether you\u2019re talking about Christianity or anything.  If you believe something, you live according to what you believe.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Okay, then according to you, Obama doesn\u2019t realize believe all this nonsense about global warming because how much greenhouse gas he emits when he travels around?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Exactly.  Exactly.  Or, those who are opposed to guns. You have prominent politicians, and you have the Hollywood elite, and they don\u2019t go anywhere without their private security, and their private security people have guns on them to protect them.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  But wait a minute.  You don\u2019t believe that they really believe you shouldn\u2019t have yours?  They do believe it.  They\u2019re hypocrites.  They\u2019re elitists.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  That\u2019s exactly right.  But if you\u2019re a hypocrite you don\u2019t believe. You don\u2019t believe.  The thing is, they measure success by controlling other people.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Right.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  And a believer measures success by living according to the truth that they hold dear.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, in the romantic version, yeah. Look, I gotta break.  Can you hang on through the break, Mary Jo?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yes.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Good.  Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Back now to Mary Jo in Grand Rapids, Michigan.  So, Mary Jo, let me ask you a question.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Okay. (chuckles)<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  No, no. Seriously now.  You\u2019ve made the point that Obama probably doesn\u2019t believe really in equal pay for women because he doesn\u2019t pay women equally, and he probably doesn\u2019t really believe in climate change because of all the greenhouse gas that he creates with all the emissions flying around.  He\u2019s doing more damage to the environment than any 30 citizens combined.  So he really doesn\u2019t believe this stuff.  Now, if you are a listener here, would I be more effective in talking about these people&#8230;? Just your opinion. There\u2019s no wrong answer here. Would I be more effective if I were to say, &#8220;Folks, these people don\u2019t even really believe it,&#8221; and then use these examples?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Not necessarily.  Because I think the idea is, they may think they believe it, and other people are convinced they believe it. But, again, you just need to educate people that they love power, that they want to control you, that they don\u2019t want you to make your decisions for yourself.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  See, that\u2019s the thing.  Whether they really believe it or not is not the point.  They are going to do whatever it takes to make you believe it.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yes.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Or to make you act on it or to live by it or under it, whether they believe it or not.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yes.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  It sort of skirts by the main point if you get into a semantics discussion about, you know, whether they\u2019re hypocrites or whether they believe it or not. &#8216;Cause, like I say, there are all different levels of liberals.  You\u2019ve got just the blind-bat followers who just don\u2019t have any idea what they\u2019re doing.  Then you\u2019ve got the top of the scale.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ve got the organizational leaders, the community organizers, the Saul Alinskys and the acolytes like Hillary and Obama who are inspiring all those brain-dead yokels that are posting comments on websites all over the country, social-media types, who are responding to peer pressure and so forth. The point is, whether they believe it or not, they are hell-bent on making sure everybody else does.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Exactly.  Exactly.  We have five daughters, Rush. They\u2019re ages three to 12, and I do not have to spend all my time telling them why what these people believe is wrong.  I just have to tell them about the ideology that they follow.  I explain to them why they do what they do, and they can see it for themselves. <\/p>\n<p>Once you explain to them why people do what they do, they can identify it in environmentalism. They can identify it in the economy. They can identify it in social issues.  So I don\u2019t need to go through every issue and say, &#8220;This isn\u2019t a fact. This isn\u2019t a fact. This isn\u2019t a fact.&#8221; I just have to teach them what the ideology is that they\u2019re following.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  How do you do that with a&#8230;? Your kids between three and 12.  Take the 12-year-old.  How do you teach her about ideology?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Well, we homeschool. So we have the opportunity all day long to talk about these things, and your books have been great for helping lead to those discussions, too. But whether they hear a news story on the radio or they read something in a news magazine, we can just dissect it, and dissect the issue, and talk about it.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  See, that is exactly what I think needs to happen.  So your kids are gonna grow up instantly able to spot a liberal when they see one or hear one or read one, and they\u2019re going to instinctively have red flags raised as a result.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Exactly.  So they don\u2019t need to know, &#8220;Well, that is a liberal.&#8221;  What they need to know and what they need identify is what my dad would call &#8220;stinkin\u2019 thinkin\u2019,&#8221; and that\u2019s what it is.  You don\u2019t need to know they\u2019re a liberal or if they\u2019re a conservative.  You need to know that that thinking is not coherent.  It\u2019s stinkin\u2019 thinkin\u2019.  It doesn\u2019t make sense.  Let\u2019s break it apart and look at the truth, and then they can see what it is that they\u2019re dealing with.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, I agree with that.  I just think labels help.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.rushimg.com\/cimages\/media\/logos\/2ndbookavailtoday\/1239199-1-eng-GB\/2ndBookAvailToday.jpg\" width=\"585\" height=\"240\" style=\"margin-bottom: -25px\" border=\"0\" usemap=\"#Map\" \/><\/p>\n<map name=\"Map\" id=\"Map\">\n<area shape=\"rect\" coords=\"417,4,577,236\" href=\"http:\/\/twoifbytea.com\/adventures\/index.php\" target=\"_self\" \/>\n<area shape=\"rect\" coords=\"71,145,191,186\" href=\"http:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/untitled-2-to-be-confirmed\/1116394311?ean=9781476755885&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=9781476755885&amp;amp;cm_mmc=AFFILIATES-_-Linkshare-_-PwUJvmDcu1U-_-10:1&amp;amp;r=1,%201\" target=\"_blank\" \/>\n<area shape=\"rect\" coords=\"214,150,325,182\" href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/1476755884?tag=simonsayscom\" target=\"_blank\" \/>\n<area shape=\"rect\" coords=\"41,187,135,231\" href=\"http:\/\/www.indiebound.org\/book\/9781476755885\" target=\"_blank\" \/>\n<area shape=\"rect\" coords=\"135,188,220,232\" href=\"http:\/\/www.booksamillion.com\/ncom\/books?isbn=1476755884\" target=\"_blank\" \/>\n<area shape=\"rect\" coords=\"225,189,323,227\" href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/book\/untitled-2\/id686958096?mt=11\" target=\"_blank\" \/><\/map>\n<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  It does.  They know what the word &#8220;liberal&#8221; means and &#8220;conservative&#8221; means, and they can identify it, but the thing is, they don\u2019t just have to slap a label.  They can say, this is wrong &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Oh, no.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  &#8212; because &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I understand. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  &#8212; A, B, and C.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  They know the intricacies of the ideology, so therefore &#8220;liberal&#8221; is how you, in one word, explain what the ideology is.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yes.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Or identify it, not explain it, but you identify it.  That\u2019s the point.  And that\u2019s what I don\u2019t think is being taught.  I don\u2019t think there\u2019s any ideological education.  The liberals especially are opposing it.  The last thing in the world they want to be called is liberal.  They lose elections when they\u2019re called liberals.  They have.  The Republicans have stopped doing it, you\u2019ll note, for whatever reason.  But that\u2019s why they come up with terms like &#8220;moderate&#8221; or &#8220;progressive.&#8221;  &#8220;Liberal&#8221; is instant trouble in an election for a genuine liberal.  It\u2019s been the case for years, and it still is.  They still run away from it. <\/p>\n<p>Anyway, Mary Jo, I appreciate your call and hanging on through the break, and thank you for the reference to the two books in your homeschool curriculum.  I really appreciate that.  Thank you much.  <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.twoifbytea.com\/\">The Rush Revere books.<\/a>  You hear that?  You hear that reference?  Used in the curriculum, no doubt, of American history.  <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Do you think Algore believes his own movie and books on climate change?  (interruption)  Why not?  (interruption)  The answer has been proffered that Algore is simply in it for the money. You mean it\u2019s Algore who\u2019s really the one saying things he doesn\u2019t believe just to profit personally?  That\u2019s what you think?  (interruption)  Okay.  Well, yes.  The polar bear stuff is not true. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"eZObject_90780\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushAlgoreCspan.jpg\"\/><BR\/>But again, coming back to the same theory, if Algore really believed it, where\u2019s the leadership?  Where is the Algore lifestyle that shows everybody how to do it?  Where is Algore parking his private plane?  Where is Algore living totally off of solar or wind?  Instead, Algore\u2019s got a huge condo in San Francisco. He\u2019s got a big mansion in Tennessee somewhere. He\u2019s running three massive 30-inch computer monitors. He\u2019s probably got Mac Pros now with 4K, 32-inch jobs using a lot of power. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>It is a good question.  They\u2019re all hip.  And none of the elite left &#8212; I mean, look at the all the environmentalist wackos in Hollywood.  But they are not parking their plans.  They will drive a Prius to the airport to get on their plane. People won\u2019t see \u2019em get on the plane or flying on the plane, but they\u2019ll see \u2019em driving the Prius.  So they engage in all this phony baloney, plastic banana, good-time rock &#8216;n\u2019 roller show stuff for the public.  But they don\u2019t really live it. And if they don\u2019t, why should you?  It is an interesting question.  There\u2019s no doubt about it.  They are all total hypocrites.  And Obama does not pay women equally in the White House.  He doesn\u2019t.  And if you look at abortion, I mean, who isn\u2019t &#8212; well, I don\u2019t want even to go there.  I don\u2019t have time to develop this fully.  But, I mean, do any of them go out and actually get abortions, or is that just something that you\u2019re supposed to do? <\/p>\n<p>They write books about how wonderful, important and liberating it is.  But do you see them doing it?  Well, yeah, some of their authors do it, write about it and all that.  But it\u2019s largely a collection of elitist hypocrites. This has been common for the left from the get-go, and that is they always exempt themselves from every policy or law that they write for everybody else.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: This is Jennifer in Lancaster, Ohio.
