Senator Turban speaking about the government shutdown on the Senate floor just this morning.<\/p>\n<p><BR\/>DURBIN: I\u2019ve heard my colleagues, some of them on the floor arguing, &#8220;Well, we just have to pick and choose who\u2019s going to get paid and everything will work out. You really won\u2019t even notice.&#8221; It reminds me, Mr. President, and you were in the House as I was, when there was the Gingrich shutdown of the government and Rush Limbaugh and others announced, &#8220;They\u2019ll shut down the government and no one will notice. We don\u2019t really need a government.&#8221; They noticed in a hurry, and after two weeks they finally reopened the government. This, sadly, is much more grievous and will have terrible consequences for innocent people.<\/line><img id=\"eZObject_82430\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/DurbinCSPAN.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I didn\u2019t say any such thing. I didn\u2019t say nobody will notice. I didn\u2019t say we don\u2019t really need a government. The budget shutdown of 1995, once again, was an honorable fight, folks. That\u2019s what everybody\u2019s missing. It was an honorable fight and the history of that budget shutdown cannot be forgotten. After that horrible thing, and in the media it was bad. I mean, in the media the Republicans were jackasses. They were mean-spirited extremists, racist, sexist, bigot, homophobes. They were the worst scum of the earth. And, after the budget shutdown, they won two seats in the Senate. They picked up two seats in 1996, presidential election year, victory for Clinton, and they only lost five or seven seats in the House. It was not huge, particularly the president of the other party being victorious.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: My name once again invoked on the Senate floor this very day.
