That issue alone has 79 votes in the Senate, getting rid of the medical device tax, and then exempting the military from any of these onerous things. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_81812\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/dingy-shutdown.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>If Harry Reid is the one who refuses to take that up, then it\u2019s Harry Reid who has shut down the government, not the Republicans.  That\u2019s the way this needs to be positioned.  That\u2019s the way this needs to be discussed, that it\u2019s Harry Reid and the Democrats in the Senate who will be shutting down.  I mean, if the Republicans want to go that route, if they want to play &#8220;the blame game&#8221; on the government shutdown, if they want to get a position staked out on it, that\u2019s what they would say. <\/p>\n<p>It\u2019d be a good thing for them to throw it back at \u2019em.  I think the Republicans made a good move, don\u2019t misunderstand. I like what they did. But now the pressure is on to hang in.  The worst thing that could happen now is if the Republicans back off of this.  Not just for the substance, but for the future, what I felt are the other reasons they\u2019ve done this.  It\u2019s time to hang with it now.  There\u2019s nothing really to lose here. <\/p>\n<p>In terms of, &#8220;Can it get worse?&#8221; or what have you, I don\u2019t even like looking at it in that way. But this, to me, is a win-win if they hang in.  They\u2019ve got a majority of the American people with them on this, whether they know it or not.  Okay, to the phones as promised.  We\u2019re gonna start in Latham, New York, with Tom.  You\u2019re next.  Great to have you on the program.  Hi.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Thank you.  Hi.  I suspect that the Senate is going to reject the House offer &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  &#8212; current House offer, and that means the House is gonna have to come up with another offer.  I think that the House needs to stop playing backcourt basketball and put the ball in the forecourt and make the Democrats play defense.  And one way to do that might be to send the funding back as it is but with an attachment that says, &#8220;Okay, we\u2019ll go ahead with Obamacare as you want it, but no exemptions. Nobody gets an exemption. Everybody has to have play on the same playing field. That\u2019s only fair.&#8221;  Fairness is the Democrats offer.  Then the Democrats, if they reject that, are going to have explain to the American people why they\u2019re willing to shut down the government in order to keep the exemptions for their favorite groups.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, I know you think it would be that way on paper &#8212; and in common sense terms, it should be &#8212; but it\u2019s not gonna eventuate that way.  In the media, there is no reversing of fortunes here.  There\u2019s no way, in the media, the Democrats are gonna be on their heels.  There is no way in the media the Democrats are not gonna have the edge.  Now, your idea is intriguing to me.  Go ahead and send another one back which gets rid of the exemptions. &#8220;No member of Congress or staff gets a subsidy,&#8221; is basically what you\u2019re saying.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Or unions or anyone else.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Right.  Okay, now, what is your ultimate objective with that?  I\u2019m serious.  There\u2019s no trick here.  What do you hope is the end result of that?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Well, what is gonna happen is they\u2019re going to be negotiating or discussing the debt limits and spending.  I think what the Republicans should do, assuming the Democrats accept the offer and don\u2019t shut the government down, they say, &#8220;Okay, we\u2019ll go ahead with that. No exemptions,&#8221; and when they start negotiating the debt limit and the spending limits, Republicans should be able to say, &#8220;Look, we gave you Obamacare. It\u2019s gonna cost whatever it\u2019s gonna cost. Let\u2019s say it\u2019s $500 billion.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  There will be no appreciation. The Democrats are never going to act or react in a way that you would that. &#8220;Okay, there\u2019s a good-faith effort. The Republicans are showing a good-faith effort so I\u2019m gonna appreciate that and reciprocate.&#8221; They\u2019re not going to act that way.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_81820\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/Rush-Obama-Stamp.jpg\"\/><BR\/>CALLER:  Don\u2019t you think that it\u2019s not the Democrats that the Republicans are talking to by doing this? It\u2019s the people of country, and when they come to negotiating and spending and debt limits, they will be able to say, &#8220;Look, Obama. We gave you Obamacare. It\u2019s gonna cost $400 billion.  We\u2019ve gotta cut $400 billion elsewhere.  That means we gotta take another $50 billion out of food stamps. We gotta take another &#8211;&#8220;<\/line><\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  And I think you\u2019ve just lost 70% of the country.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Well, perhaps, but &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  You\u2019re into minutia.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  But the Republicans need a win and they ain\u2019t getting any right now.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, okay, what are the Republicans going to need to get a win, in practical, real terms?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  They need to put the Democrats on the defensive and give them an offer they cannot refuse.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  No, but they\u2019re gonna have to do something.  I mean, correct me if I\u2019m wrong, but if I want to roll up my sleeves and comment on this in the pure, unbridled legislative sense, and get rid of all the politics, the Republicans are going to have propose something that\u2019s gonna get some Democratic votes, are they not?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Perhaps.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, otherwise they don\u2019t have the votes to get anything done. To avoid a shutdown and to achieve something, they\u2019re gonna have to propose something that some Democrats will break away from Harry Reid on a vote for.  I don\u2019t know what it is, don\u2019t misunderstand.  I don\u2019t have that answer.  But if you\u2019re gonna start playing this back-and-forth with \u2019em&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>I gotta take a break.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Okay.  How about this?  Our last caller might have been on to something.  You offer&#8230; Well, I\u2019m not gonna be able to squeeze this into the remaining seconds, but in offering something, you force Democrat votes to join you, and peel away votes from Harry Reid.  The thing to attack is all of these members of Congress getting their subsidy. Make them vote to defend that.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Now, I want to go back to this business of the government shutdown and build on a little bit what I was talking about with our previous caller right at the end of the first hour.  And it is this.  He said that the continuing resolution proposal needs to be sent back and a new one sent over to the Democrats that forces their hand.  Now, forget for just a second all of the distractions and all the external things that are being said and done for public consumption. <\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s talk about the sausage making for just a second, the actual business of having a piece of legislation that is successfully passed and voted on.  In this case, you have a lot of things going on.  There\u2019s a showdown over Obamacare.  Now, the Republicans have sent a continuing resolution over which delays the individual mandate for a year, eliminates the tax on medical devices, which includes a lot of sexual devices, and it exempts the military from some of the onerous regulations for a while.  The Democrats are saying, &#8220;Ain\u2019t no way, pal.  No way.&#8221;  And Dingy Harry in the Senate not even showing up \u2019til two o\u2019clock today. They\u2019re positioning it as the Republicans are trying to deny people affordable health care. <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=11754\"><img id=\"eZObject_81824\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamacareExemption.jpg\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/news.yahoo.com\/wholl-blink-dems-gop-shutdown-stare-down-212703487--politics.html\">This is in the AP story today<\/a>.  And again, this is worth repeating because this is how literally outrageous this has become.  Chris Van Hollen, who is in the Democrat leadership in the Senate, is saying that the Republican effort to delay the individual mandate &#8212; and I want to be clear.  I go through this, I don\u2019t really know how many people even know what I\u2019m talking about.  The individual mandate is a fundamental requirement in Obamacare.  It mandates, it requires that you have health insurance or you pay a fine. <\/p>\n<p>Now, you can argue all day long over whether it\u2019s constitutional.  The Supreme Court said that it is, but in a purist sense, it isn\u2019t, because the federal government cannot require you to buy something.  The Commerce Clause expressly prohibits this.  But that\u2019s another issue.  It still infuriates me.  They got around it by calling it a tax, if you\u2019ll remember, but bottom line is, the individual mandate is an onerous thing.  It is a sign of an oppressive statist, pure socialist government, to have the government mandating, requiring citizens to buy anything, in this case health insurance.  The Republicans are trying to stand up for that. They\u2019re trying to stand up for the idea it\u2019s unconstitutional. It\u2019s not right. It\u2019s not the role of government. It\u2019s got to stop. They want to delay it for a year. <\/p>\n<p>Some people think they shoulda gone for the fuel defund, they didn\u2019t have the guts, the votes, whatever, to do that, so they\u2019ve done this.  Delay the mandate for a year because the employer mandate was delayed for a year by Obama.  The employer mandate requiring employers to provide insurance has now been waived until 2015.  Again, the reason for that is that the real objective of Obamacare is to destroy the whole private sector insurance market.  If the employer doesn\u2019t have to provide insurance, that is obviously a reduction in guaranteed customers for the insurance companies.  And if you as an employee cannot depend on your employer providing it, then what?  Well, here\u2019s the personal mandate, the individual mandate, you\u2019ve got to have it. <\/p>\n<p>So now it\u2019s on you to go get it.  And you\u2019ve either gotta sign up at an exchange starting tomorrow or you\u2019ve gotta find a private sector policy or pay the fine.  And most people are gonna pay the fine \u2019cause it\u2019s cheaper the first couple of years, by design.  Obama is happy as hell about people not buying insurance for a couple of years.  That destroys the private sector market and eventually the only place you\u2019re gonna be able to get insurance will be at a government exchange. <\/p>\n<p>Now, until that time comes the Republicans are trying to delay this individual mandate to go along with the employer mandate to scoop the guts out of Obamacare. If you eliminate the requirement to have it, you have scooped quite a bit out of Obamacare.  Democrats aren\u2019t gonna go for that.  There\u2019s no way that this continuing resolution is gonna get one Democrat vote, and it doesn\u2019t have a prayer without any Democrat votes, just talking strictly about sausage making. <\/p>\n<p>It doesn\u2019t have a prayer without any Democrat votes.  Nothing does, because of the current lay of the land.  So the Democrats working with the Democrats and others in the media are now characterize the individual mandate as compassion. They\u2019re saying that the Republicans trying to delay it for a year means that the Republicans don\u2019t want you to have health insurance, and so they\u2019re out there, in conjunction with the AP saying that the Republicans are willing to shut down the government to make sure that you do not get insurance. <\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s the degree to which this has been bastardized. <\/p>\n<p>It couldn\u2019t be further from the truth. <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=11754\"><img id=\"eZObject_81825\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamacareCapitol2PIX.jpg\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Republicans are not trying to deny anybody health insurance.  The Republicans are trying to save the American medical system being from destroyed because it\u2019s taken over by a government and run by people who haven\u2019t the foggiest idea what they\u2019re doing and don\u2019t care.  To them, it\u2019s simply the latest measure for total control of the people.  But the low-information crowd who read AP or wherever the story gets posted, hear, &#8220;Republicans want to eliminate your ability to get health insurance, and they\u2019re willing to shut the government down.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>So that\u2019s not gonna get any Democrat votes.  So there might be a shutdown, which is the Democrat Party\u2019s opening move in the 2014 campaign, in this case for the House.  That\u2019s their objective.  So what could get Democrat votes?  The caller\u2019s idea was we\u2019re gonna have to turn the tables on this at some point, and the Democrats are gonna have to be put on the defensive &#8212; and there might be a way. <\/p>\n<p>Remember, because of the lay of the land, nothing the Republicans propose that doesn\u2019t peel off some Democrat votes in the Senate has a chance of actually happening.  So if we go the shutdown route, then who wins is gonna be determined by who blinks first, and you know how that\u2019s gonna go.  The media is just&#8230; I mean, they got an endless parade of suffering people because the government shutdown. It\u2019s all gonna be lies and it\u2019s all gonna be exaggerated. It\u2019s all gonna be made up. <\/p>\n<p>But it\u2019s been done before. <\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve been here and did that.  It\u2019s all deja vu. <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=12594\"><img id=\"eZObject_81827\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/GOPDemExemptPIX.jpg\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>So what might work otherwise?  Well, there\u2019s something out there that\u2019s happened. I really believe that if a majority of the American people knew about it, they would be fit to be tied and would not tolerate it, and that is the fact that members of Congress and their staffs are getting their health care subsidized.  Seventy-five percent of the cost of health care insurance for members of Congress and their staff will be paid for by taxpayers. <\/p>\n<p>Now, if you could write a CR repealing that and send that over to the Senate &#8212; in other words, make the Democrats vote to defend their getting a subsidy, particularly the Democrats that are up in the Senate in 2014. You send something over there that makes them vote for that, and theoretically (and I\u2019m just talking off the top of my head) that might work. I could be whistling Dixie here, too.  I may not have the slightest idea what I\u2019m talking about. <\/p>\n<p>But that might be embarrassing enough that you could peel some Democrat votes off, that some Democrats might not want it publicly known that they are voting for you to pay for 75% of their health care &#8212; cause that, right now, is the law of the land.  They bitched and they moaned about the price. These are people making upwards of a hundred, $174,000 a year. They complained about the cost to them of Obamacare, and they wrote it, in many cases, the staff, and they certainly defended it.<\/p>\n<p>But then they did a &#8220;Waaaa-hah-hah-hah,&#8221; and said they couldn\u2019t afford it, and Obama &#8212; trying to head off a problem at the pass &#8212; went over there and promised \u2019em they would be subsidized, not through the exchanges, but through the office of personal management.  It\u2019s still taxpayer dollars, but they\u2019re not gonna be subsidized through an exchange like those who will be subsidized will have it taken care of. <\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re not gonna have to mess with the exchanges. <\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re gonna be taken up with another government agency.  Okay, that\u2019s the law of the land now. They\u2019re gonna be subsidized.  So send something over that cancels that. Put it in your bill, Republicans. Put that in your defund or your delay bill that also we want to remove this subsidy for members of Congress.  The original bill said that members of Congress have to go through everything just like everybody else does, and now they don\u2019t. <\/p>\n<p>So put it in your bill that they have to live with it just like everybody else does and pull out this subsidy they\u2019ve the bottom, and then put them on the defensive of having to vote to defend something you can\u2019t get.  Now, that might turn the tables, and it might get some Democrat votes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: The truth of the matter is &#8212; and somebody on our side besides me had better start saying so &#8212; if Harry Reid refuses to talk with Boehner, if Harry Reid refuses to take the CR the Republicans passed on early Sunday morning which delays the personal mandate for a year &#8212; it eliminates [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>What Should Republicans Do Next?
