Your Rush Limbaugh Echo for Friday-the-13th .!.
Student NOTES from Institute juniors, not 'official'
Opening: I knew two hours pmsNBC retracted it !
_____________________________________________________________
Segment#1: Rush was praising God before the 'Tebow'.
[DittoCam: Rush is wearing his red t-shirt, no EIB logo on it today.] Talent on loan from Goddd, even before Tim Tebow. This is Openline Friday, call in or send an eMail note to ELrushbo@EIBnet.com Everybody was going nuts with "breaking news" yesterday — now the story is retracted.
Remember yesterday when I said, "Are you sitting down?" It was when I found out Romney compared himself to Obama taking over General Motors. Then CNBC said, "Bain Capitol advised Obama which dealerships to cut". That led to others saying it looks like Romney looked ahead.
Blogs wrote 'literally' pages of analysis on why Romney would do this. Andy McCarthy wrote a brilliant note and CNBC then retracts. There was a Bain company, but it wasn't Romney's. So, "Never Mind", they say now. The retraction is about 1/10th of the original article size: It's not the Bain that Romney had anything to do with.
I love popping the bubbles of health myths. Megyn McArdle expresses the opinion that I have. www.theatlantic.com/megan-mcardle/ "Whatever you do, you are going to die." And there is no legislation that will make you healthy. [Except blocking FDA regulations that will kill homeopathic chiropractors.] Chinese food is not an early killer. I resent the gov't regulating our lives. It is a great incursion on our Freedoms. "The largest factor about getting cancer is age." [Marginally true: cancer hits all ages.]
These health scares are just little [nibblings] on our choices. If you really care about death, ban cars. The number people killed in automobile accidents dwarfs everything else. I hate to break it to you: if you are alive, you are going to die.
I resent mass mind-manipulation, and that is what the Liberal Left does. Look at the news about red wine in France with cheese. It cuts the insulin release in half. The professor with government grants, just made it up! Just like grants led to making it up on manmade Global Warming.
One doctor in Sydney Australia can make world news: caution on energy drinks that can cause heart attacks in young adults. You don't even have to drink them, just buy the energy drinks and you die.
>>> How much your $$ is devoted to longevity? It's bogus!
ED: You can get the intent of Rush without giving up your healthy lifestyle.
ED2: Had he known about 4-Life immune system regulator, he wouldn't be deaf.
_____________________________________________________________
Segment#2: Will Obama cut Obamacare to keep gov't small?
All of a sudden, Barack Hussein Obama Hmmm, Hmmm, hmm wants to make the government smaller. He now sees that gov't impinges on our lives, "We've got to streamline this." The streamlining will be marginal after Obamacare comes in. What a scam.
>>> Obamacare will blow the size of government to unrecognizable.
_____________________________________________________________
Seg#3: Obama wants to cut pro-business gov't agencies
Wow, all of a sudden BHObama wants to streamline government. Isn't it a beautiful thing? Well, let's look at it. Here are the agencies that he wants to shrink/combine:
The Commerce Department
The Small Business Administration
Office of the US Trade Representative
Export/Import Bank
Overseas Private Investment Corp
Trade and Development Agency
What do they have in common? They are all pro-business. That is where Obama wants to shrink! You could even say they are all of Republican/Conservative interest.
Are we to presume that Obama, Panetta, and HRClinton will enjoy firing the four Marines? Nobody knows how old the video is. 80,000 soldiers were laid off without a tear from The Regime.
You can't fire cops, teachers, and firemen with you have no money. Liberals complain and keep spending.
More health news from CBS News: CDC in Atlanta list 38million binge drink and that is just adults. What if you added college fraternity drinking? Who can blame us? UK Prince Charles starts at 4pm in the afternoon. The CDC is calling for gov't ads to educate us and roll out community strategies. They have been warning of this since I have been alive.
NYC Mayor Bloomberg wants to curb drinking by limiting sales. I think Bloomberg beat CDC in timing.
Newt Gingrich says citizens have the right to know: Romney 'jobs created' isn't accurate, and will have his superPAC info and want Romney to edit also or pull it off the air and Internet entirely.
Snerdley asks if Gingrich is coordinating with his superPAC. What are we? A bunch of idiots? Everybody knows they talk to their superPACs, one way or another. You do want candidates vetted. That was the problem with electing Obama.
It flipped his wig but Newt Gingrich now wants to take the high road. Now, a gaggle of reporters will find Romney to do the same — that is what Gingrich is hoping.
>>> Newt wants Mitt to not coordinate like he is not coordinating.
_____________________________________________________________
Seg#4: Rush watches polls but some of them are stupid push-polls
John Elway picked up golf when he was at Stanford, and was 'handicap 5' from the start, a natural athlete.
They are asking Tim Tebow to join a charity golf event. Will they team him with Tiger Woods? Will he accept? He keeps his family out of the public image by design. Pebble Beach is a fun place to play golf, but Superbowl is right after. Clint Eastwood is the organizer.
Two Gallup Polls interested me recently. Why is it that every poll over weights Democrats? We are the [silent] majority.
>>> Conservatives, 40% Libs 21%.
_____________________________________________________________
Seg#6: USA demographics: . . . Conservative 40% ... Liberals 21%
(Theme Music) From the EIB Southern Command, (not high-atop anything.) I went a little long in the last segment and so will get to your calls later. 40% describe their views as 'conservative', 35% as 'moderate', and 21% 'liberal Democrat'. Stunning! Just imagine how conservative this country would be [without media, education, movie industry] if more were allowed to hear the truth.
It is not party vs party — it is ideology vs ideology.
Americans named jobs, national debt, decline, outsourcing . . . The top three make up 50%. You have to go down to the bottom of the list to find 2% consider the divide between Rich and Poor have a major concern. It is down there with campaign finance reform. OWS was created out of thin air by the WH. Of those that are concerned about the divide, they are less concerned about what they have than being concerned by what other people have. Interesting.
Obama is playing off envy.
Class-envy warriors can say, "I'll take it away from them" giving whiners nothing. Only 2% hate the 1%. And 97% do not hate the 1%.
Do you know why they call it "The Five" on FNC, the five at 5pm? No, it is not five women, unless you count Bob Beckel. They rotate who leads the conversation. ((Clip-Butthead-Beckel: Lets talk about what Rush Limbaugh said.)) I don't know why Deckel is nervous when most Democrats are not supporting free enterprise.
((Clip: This gets it out of the way now and Romney deals with it.)) So they think Democrats are disadvantaged. They compare Bain to Jeremiah Wright tapes. What secret tapes?
>>> There aren't any Jeremiah Wright tapes except the ones he sells.
_____________________________________________________________
Seg#7: Rush Limbaugh lives in Realville not fantasy polling
Caller: You keep saying if Election 2012 were held today, Obama loses.
We know that Huntsman and Ron Paul will not be the Nominee. My point is that people want a change, badly. It is never reported. Bachmann would have beat Obama. Obama can be beat. The 2010 Elections show us the alternatives.
We saw a massive landslide in 2010 against Democrats, even down to dogcatcher. By the time there is a Nominee, the contrasts will be drawn. People now know what Liberalism and Marxism is: and they don't want Obamacare. [Caller is watching the push polls.] I couldn't care less what a presidential poll says today.
I'm using my instincts here. Polling data is like: "Investing in Hope means you don't have to do anything." Let's quit because Romney is down in a poll? Polls are part of making the news. Polls are not Reality.
Let's take a poll: Tim Tebow or Tom Brady.
[Denver Broncos v NE Patriots on Saturday.]
>>> Then don't even play the game.
_____________________________________________________________
Seg#8: Party enemies stand with each others for PhotoOp and GOP
[Talks to callers about Blueberry flavor of Two If By Tea.]
Caller: Maverick McCain and Conservative Chris Christie support Romney, who is said to 'flip-flop' and could fold to Democrats, reaching across the aisle.
I'm interested in your perspective: when is Romney not conservative? [Caller can't name anything.] Some people heard him say he was 'moderate' when he was in Massachusetts. Newt has been all over the board: AGW, sitting w/Pelosi.
They are all establishment Republicans and the word has gone out.
This stuff matters to governors like in SC. What if you know Obamacare will kill your state SC and Nicky Haley supports her party. I'm not saying she wants to be VP. There are certain steps to climb the ladder of success.
Why would Romney stand with McCain? Huckabee and McCain took him out in 2008. He puts it aside to be on the same page with Republican establishment. How do you become best buds with two and the gov of FL that destroyed in 2008.
George H W Bush literally tried to destroy Ronald Reagan, but became VP. It is party politics, where ideology is not the most important thing.
Caller: Do the voters watch and value the debates? Newt does good and against Obama, he would beat him up senseless.
Barring a huge gaffe, a debate changes no one. Republicans are tired of their candidates being called 'stupid' and laughed at. To Hell with the election, just make Obama look like the blithering idiot some think he is. DbM says he is the smartest. Even some of my friends thought Bush stupid.
>>> I understand all of this: that is why . . . I am who I am.
Humbly spoken, of course.
_____________________________________________________________
Seg#9: Obama is trying to 'remake America' not create jobs
When you are in the Ideas Business you had better be able to communicate ideology ideas. A true Conservative has it in the heart and does not have to ponder what belief, like a Moderate. Passion is the giant magnet.
We are a party of Conservative ideas and if it is not in your heart, you will make mistakes communicating. If you fake it you raise questions.
US Chambers of Commerce points out the jobs that would come from the Keystone Pipeline. "You want to create jobs?"
>>> Obama doesn't want to create jobs — that is not what he is about.

Seg#11: Liberal Media is not going to criticize Obama like they did Bush
(Music) Why don't I just admit it and then we can MoveOn? I am the problem. You All expect the candidates to be as good as I am, and they are not. I learned it all on my own, well, almost all. You can't teach talent.
It takes Snerdley longer to find proper callers on Open Line Friday. 64% favor FCC regulating TV and radio. Not that they are statist, they are tired of the filth.
Will UrineGate stop us from negotiating with Taliban. Remember Abu Ghraib when I said it only looked like an Ivy League hazing night? Oh, no! now we have to get out of Iraq, Liberals said. Which was worse. We don't know when it happened and details are sketchy. Reuters says it won't hurt Taliban talks — what does that tell you?
The Left could exploit it as another Abu Ghraib? This will be blamed on individuals and not the POTUS. It is a Democrat Obama, not a Republican Bush. "We are not bothered by PeeGate". No, they are not tired of being hit by drones. Taliban must think they are close to winning and taking over. They think we are close to surrendering everything to them and don't want UrineGate to interrupt that.
If DriveByMedia wanted to, they could demand Panetta resign. They wanted to frog-march Bush, Cheney, and Karl Rove to jail. It was on the front page for 32 days. Panetta says he is outraged and that is just fine enough, now we can MoveOn.
Snerdley, have you ever heard of Crystal Wright, who is a Conservative Black babe, self-described. ((Clip: The reality is that Rush Limbo and Karl Rove are calling the shots. They are not.)) She sounds like she is for Newt Gingrich.
>>> She compare me and Rove to American Idol judges.
http://conservativeblackchick.com/blog/about/ [She doesn't look 'Black'.]
ED: When Rush mentions a website, it bogs down, but he didn't spell it out this time.
_____________________________________________________________
Seg#12: Where is Code Pink to criticize the current Administration?
Caller-gal: These four kids were not like Abu Ghraib. I'm so mad. These crogs deserved more than a little whiz on them.
The Father of one of them says it violated rules. George Patton relieved himself in the Rhine River before marching on Hitler. This is war, for crying out loud. [Caller mentions enemy atrocities.]
Do you remember after Club G'tmo and Abu Ghraib, "This is not us; where are American values?" Obama was campaigning even then. Where is Code Pink on this?
Showtime on demand could be on your TV: Direct TV does. The Show runner for '24' has Clare Daines as a CIA agent. A scene where the male lead is captive for seven years with guards urinating on him. This is nothing that happens to the women and children of Taliban, sending them out for the drones.
Joel Surnow told me about the new show and is one of Dane's friend. Kathryn and I watch this show's DVDs in Hawaii. [[DittoCam is now off. Rush is talking about never watching 'vampire' stuff . . .
>>> . . . but sees science fiction as part of reality.]] [[[We agree, mainly.]]]
ED: We vacationed in Palm Springs Calif and saw opening night of Twilight III.
Lynnette read all of the books, but they are somewhat different, hence popular.
_____________________________________________________________
Seg#13: Romney will attack every Liberal sacred cow, it is said
Caller: Elect Romney's butt and then keep him Conservative.
So you want to elect his butt and then bulldoze his butt. Daniel Henninger hopes other candidates will move Romney to the right. This is important to happen.
And the media will try to push him left if nominated. Did Romney say publicly that if he wins he thinks he will only last one term?
He is going to so roll back what the Left has done, "four years to save this country" from Obamacare and SocSec reform, taking on every one of their sacred cows. Reportedly, he would expect DbM to attack.
Caller-still: He would win a Landslide second term if it happens.
Media is a huge pressure point with elite Republicans trying to please.
Caller: There are many more of us than of them. Keep pressure on.
Interesting points, James. 1,144 delegates are needed and they take the month of February off then March "Super Tuesday" hits.
[Rush asks staff if it is too late to delete these caller's comments, know it has been minutes.]
Caller: Do we jump off to Marxism or inch there? Won't vote Romney. Newt.
You just cede to Obama rather than vote for Romney? If Obama gets four more years there is no more coming back. I'll take 'slowing it down'. This Chris Christie camp thinks he is a Conservative. Same with Marco Rubio.
>>> I sense you are listening intently this week: DirtySpendingSecrets:
We spent $10million remaking Sesame Street for a Pakistan TV station.
_____________________________________________________________
Seg#14: Can The Regime focus on what is important?
More UK health news, study in Sweden: bacon leads to pancreatic cancer, maybe. An extra sausage a day could increase your risk by 19%.
How many of you go to Bed, Bath, & Beyond? They issue a recall on tissue paper holders. The nuclear regulatory agency said it risks radiation.
> > Regime measures low-radiation while Iran pursues nuclear bombs.
_____________________________________________________________
Seg#15: Where is the equal concern about airport scanners?
There is no health threat to humans with tissue holders, but TSA has scanners.
>>> No risk from tissue holders but we send people into scanners.
Closing: Go with the Broncos and we'll see you Monday.

From the Rush Limbaugh Morning Update: "Youth Angle"
All you teenagers looking for work: The federal Bureau of Labor Statistics has bad news for you. The Obama economy is so awful, there's little work to be had. Not only are after-school jobs hard to find, so are weekend and summer jobs. For the past year, the overall unemployment rate has averaged 9 percent. But for teens, 25 percent. That's a dramatic increase from a decade ago, under George Bush, when the teen unemployment rate was 15 percent.
The "experts" are concerned. They say many entry-level jobs that would normally go to teen job-seekers have been snapped up by older people in need of paychecks. They also blame "automation" for eliminating traditional teen jobs, like photo shops and car washes.
These "experts" don't mention the role minimum wage and other regulations play in killing off teen jobs. Like when liberals tried to impose new farm regulations to bar teens from driving farm equipment. Still, the "experts" warn that society suffers when an entire generation of teens is denied the chance to earn money and learn workplace skills.
Remember all those glowing news stories last presidential election cycle, celebrating how youths had become politically engaged backing the Messiah – Lord Barack Obama, the Most Merciful? Do you think these same networks will use the youth angle this time?
Doubtful. Because the kids who bought all that hope and change-ism from Obama are now unemployed, with no prospects and no money a lot of defecation on their pants from Occupy places. And that doesn't fit the narrative!

Quote Gems from Rush Limbaugh dot com:
"If you want to start attacking people for not understanding Capitalism, just go to the Oval Office."
"People say, 'Why don't you run for office?' I couldn't. If you have to couch what you really believe, I couldn't do it because I don't believe for a minute Obama's in over his head."
"I am doing what I was born to do, and so are you. I was born to host; you were born to listen. Some of you were born to call while you listen. It all works."
"I don't think Obama runs around every day feeling genuinely sorry for the 99%. I don't think he's motivated by altruism. I think he's motivated by anger. He's got a chip on his shoulder, a number of them."
"I'll guarantee you that Warren Buffett could not have become Warren Buffett believing what Barack Obama believes."
"Are we supposed to go through political life not able to be honest in order to succeed? Is that what we're being told, you cannot be honest in politics and succeed? You have to lie; you have to make it up; you have to have a spin policy, a PR strategist; you have to say things that you don't believe in order to get where you want to go? "
"What does Warren Buffett do that is significantly different than what Romney did at Bain Capital? That is my question."
"You know, I love are busting myths. I just love it, especially medical myths. I just take great satisfaction in telling people, you know, the things they believe, the cockamamie BS that they believe for years was made pick up."
"The Democrats can say whatever they want about us, and there's never a concern from anybody that they are going to frighten away independents or any other voters."
"Rush Limbaughisms? So this babe thinks that this is forcing Romney to parrot me? If Romney were parroting me he would have the nomination sewn up!"
"In the so-called conservative media establishment, I know there are people who think that the view that the country's in peril and that we are facing a forever transformation from which we can't come back, they don't think that. To them, $16 trillion of national debt's no different than five trillion. As long as we keep making the interest payments we're cool."
"If you want to start attacking people for not understanding capitalism, just go to the Oval Office."
"I have a pet peeve with people who say and do whatever they do to curry favor with the media. Phonies, I despise 'em. I know it may be smart, but it's something I couldn't do. I couldn't be that disingenuous."
"The reason I couldn't run for office and do politics apparently is 'cause you're not allowed to be honest. Not as a candidate. You simply aren't allowed to be honest."
"People getting fired is part of life. It's nothing unique to capitalism. It's nothing unique to humanity."
"I can't get my arms around the fact that there are people born in this country who hate it."
"I still haven't gotten to the point where I wished, 'Gee, I wish I was younger.' I'm still looking forward to next year, still looking forward to getting older, even at 61." [Happy Birthday, Rush ! 1/12/2012]

Learned from WSJ Online:
Obama proposed merging six agencies that focus on trade and commerce into one new department, following through on a promise he made a year ago.
In hopes of nailing down the nomination, the front-runner now looks to the region where he was weakest when he ran four years ago.

Most people are hampered in trying to evaluate the smears that have been directed at Mitt Romney and Bain Capital by leftists, abetted by Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry, because they lack any clear idea of what Bain and other private equity firms do. So I asked a friend who is an extremely sophisticated participant in the world of finance to explain private equity to our readers. He articulates succinctly »
_____________________________________________________________
JOHN HINDERAKER [ED: More on Bain Capital and private equity]
The Left is carrying out a coordinated attack on Mitt Romney's business career. One sees exactly the same allegations, often phrased identically, whether you look at the Daily Kos, the Associated Press, Slate or Think Progress, or listen to Newt Gingrich or Rick Perry. The centerpiece of the Left's attack has been Bain's involvement with two companies that merged to become Holson Burnes Group, Inc. Holson made photo albums, and »

New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman has a recurring daydream. In Friedman's daydream the United States adopts the highly efficient Chinese Communist mode of government under the leadership of "a reasonably enlightened group of people" — such as Friedman finds the Chinese Communists to be. Friedman finds enlightenment among the Chinese Communists in their collective pursuit of "electric cars, solar power, energy efficiency, batteries, nuclear power and wind power." By »
