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

RUSH: Folks, let me tell you something. You know, privately there are a lot of Democrats that tell me that they are just distressed over what Obama has done to the health care industry and to jobs. They are afraid to say anything about it because of recriminations, because this regime fights back. I mean, this regime does not take internal criticism at all, just like they try to eliminate all conservative opposition. <\/p>\n

Likewise, if anybody in the Democrat Party goes public with the slightest disagreement or problem with what Obama\u2019s doing, it could be curtains for them, particularly if they are elected. I have a lot of Democrats privately telling me they would love to be able to stop Obamacare but that they know they don\u2019t have the votes in the Senate, and I just want to get that out there. It\u2019s not new. I mean, I\u2019ve been hearing about this from Democrats for a couple of years now. <\/p>\n

Speaking of which, let me grab the call up on line one from Westminster, Maryland. This is John. John, I\u2019m glad that you called. Great to have you on the EIB Network. Hello, sir.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hello. I want to say this is a great honor. I\u2019ve been trying to reach you for a very long time, and I just want to thank you for the work you have done. My background is that I\u2019m originally from Chicago, and a lot of people will probably kind of know who I am because they know me personally. I am a registered nurse, and I\u2019ve worked at the University of Virginia Medical Center, and I\u2019m also applying to other physicians as a nurse here as well. And this is a great honor, and I\u2019d like to thank you for the work you\u2019ve done, and thanks for having me on the show.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You bet.<\/p>\n

CALLER: My comment to you is that — in light of what you have said in your comments about the Democrats wanting to stop Obamacare — well, yeah, I see it in academia as well. Because I am also enrolled is a BSN program at a major institute, and I\u2019m not gonna reveal that but —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, no, because everybody knows who you are already.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right. So what I\u2019m gonna say is that, you know, even the academics aren\u2019t allowed to talk about it. Being the foreigner that I am, I grew up in… My folks are originally from Korea —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah?<\/p>\n

CALLER: — and came over to America. You see what\u2019s happening worldwide with the overreach of government and the overreach of power. It\u2019s just unfortunate that America has to go through the same thing that\u2019s repeated, historically speaking. It\u2019s just sad that in class you\u2019re not even allowed to talk about the pros and cons. You know, I mentioned this to a number of teachers as well as assistant deans. I said, “The government has done its job by silencing all of us.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, look, what he\u2019s doing here is backing up the point. He\u2019s not talking at all about what I thought he was gonna talk about, folks. What I thought he was gonna say was that, as a nurse, he\u2019s got a good handle on Obamacare. It says on the board he was gonna say that there\u2019s no way to stop it, that the Democrats are gonna push it, and that the Republicans will eventually go along. I thought that\u2019s what he was gonna say. <\/p>\n

But, regardless, even he says that he knows Democrats, and this guy\u2019s everywhere. This guy\u2019s in academia. He\u2019s a nurse, in university or wherever. He\u2019s in Chicago, Maryland, Washington, all that. Everywhere he goes, there are Democrats and professors who don\u2019t like it but they\u2019re afraid to say anything. Well, I don\u2019t know about that. All I can tell you is, there are a lot of liberal Democrats who have told me privately that they don\u2019t like this, but they\u2019re afraid to say anything.<\/p>\n

You know what happens to people in the regime that go against it. <\/p>\n

I mean, that\u2019s the end of their careers. But there are a lot… I\u2019ve even had Democrats… I\u2019m not kidding about this. I\u2019ve had Democrats tell me privately, they are worried long term about what\u2019s happened to this party. You know, I say to them, “Well, my perception is, your party\u2019s set up for perpetual power. I don\u2019t know how you\u2019re ever gonna get beat, because you\u2019ve succeeded in convincing the Republicans to go after the same voters that you\u2019re going after, and there\u2019s no way they\u2019re gonna get \u2019em. <\/p>\n

“You have convinced the Republicans to go after only the independents. You\u2019ve convinced the Republicans never to criticize Democrats. I mean, you\u2019ve effectively neutered the Republicans and you\u2019ve turned at least half this country into a dependency class and you\u2019re about to get amnesty. What do you mean you\u2019re worried about your party?” A number of them have said that what they fear is that, at some point, the American people are gonna wake up and see it doesn\u2019t work. <\/p>\n

“They\u2019re gonna wake up,” he said.<\/p>\n

He says they\u2019re worried that there is literally going to be shrinking prosperity, and when that happens — he doesn\u2019t think this is any time soon, but when all that happens — there\u2019s gonna be a big backlash against the Democrat Party. Because, at some point, people are going to realize it doesn\u2019t work, and what this guy\u2019s really afraid of is once you take Obama out of the equation and can\u2019t blame race and you don\u2019t have this mythological, messianic-like figure — once you put your standard, ordinary, everyday average Democrat in there (even including Hillary) — then it\u2019s all gonna come to a screeching halt. <\/p>\n

This is what they tell me privately. Now, I don\u2019t know how many of them it actually is \u2019cause I don\u2019t know all of them, but a number of them are worried. And it could well be nothing more than… Look, these Democrats, you have to understand: They do not trust voters. At the end of the day, they don\u2019t, because they look at average people with contempt. See, every election is Christmas, it\u2019s Santa Claus, it\u2019s this or that. But they don\u2019t trust voters. I mean, you\u2019ve seen it.<\/line><\/p>\n

When the Democrats do lose elections, what do they say about the voters? I mean, they rip \u2019em! They got fooled or they\u2019re stupid idiots or what have you. But I found it interesting that these people — and it\u2019s not just the last couple of weeks. These are people who are thinking long term, and I guess there\u2019s an analogy here. Let\u2019s say that your favorite football team is the league powerhouse. Let\u2019s say it\u2019s the seventies and you\u2019re a Steelers fan.<\/p>\n

They beat everybody, four Super Bowls in one decade. That\u2019s never been done. Even then, there were Steelers fans who worried that it wasn\u2019t really real, that they were gonna lose. They weren\u2019t really as good as they looked. I mean, they played great, but you\u2019ll always have some people, real fans, who doubt it. As you know, there are people who are deathly afraid of success. You know the kind of people they are? <\/p>\n

Those are people who don\u2019t think it\u2019s justified. <\/p>\n

They\u2019re people who don\u2019t think it\u2019s legitimate, and they\u2019re worried that it could end. I\u2019ll never forget Oprah one day said that she\u2019s not one of these people that is afraid of her own success. She\u2019s not gonna sit there and tell herself that it isn\u2019t justified, that it hasn\u2019t been deserved. But she was right in alluding to the fact that there are people like that. There are people who are successful who destroy themselves. They destroy their own success because they believe it isn\u2019t real, that they don\u2019t really deserve it.<\/p>\n

They\u2019ve been talked down to and talked down so much of their lives that when they do become successful they end up their own worst enemies by not believing it, not believing it\u2019s real. These Democrats that I\u2019m talking to privately are much like that, \u2019cause they don\u2019t think the vast majority of the American people have had this amazing magic transformation and now agree with them for life. They think that there are “transigent” (if I can use that word in this circumstance: transigent) events that have turned people into Obama voters. But they\u2019re not concerned that they\u2019re Democrats, or they\u2019re not convinced that they\u2019re Democrat voters.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: I\u2019ll tell you something else that these Democrats tell me privately. They do not like… It\u2019s not that they don\u2019t like. They\u2019re not comfortable with how the country is being divided. We often, on this side, make the mistake of looking at them as — I know this is true, and it\u2019s common with way too many people — as almost invincible. We think they can\u2019t lose because they\u2019ve got the media.<\/p>\n

Even though they do lose now and then, we think that they\u2019re all just confident as they can be and that they\u2019re all pretty good strategists, some of them brilliant. We don\u2019t ever think they\u2019ve got any doubts about things, and we believe that they\u2019re very happy with what\u2019s happening to the country. “The more roiled, the better for them. The more chaos, the better.” We look at it as the more people turning to government for solutions to problems, the better they have it. <\/p>\n

We look at that sad situation in Detroit when all those tens of thousands of people showed up for whatever little government benefit there was and there wasn\u2019t nearly enough to go around and the radio reporter for WJR went to the crowd and asked them about it, and they didn\u2019t know diddly-squat. It was pathetic, really, how out of it and uninformed these citizens were. They just knew Obama was gonna give \u2019em some money.<\/p>\n

“Well, where\u2019s he gonna get it?”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“We don\u2019t know. Obama\u2019s stash<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

We think that they don\u2019t care about that. We think that they\u2019re just fine and dandy with keeping people dumb and uninformed and so forth. You know, you talk about them not trusting the voters. What do you think their opposition to voter ID is all about? They do not trust voters to vote for them. If you have photo ID for voting, they think they\u2019re gonna lose. They do not trust voters. The evidence for that is no more obvious than their opposition to photo ID to vote. <\/p>\n

They\u2019re not these never doubtful, always confident types, at least these guys that I know and speak with. These guys have privately told me that they worry about all these divisions in country because they don\u2019t think anything good can come from all the chaos, just day-to-day life. Here\u2019s more evidence of it. This is a story from TheHill.com<\/a>. Black Lawmakers Lament Flaring of Racial Tensions Under Obama.” You know this Martin Luther King anniversary speech that Obama\u2019s gonna do on Wednesday?<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll tell you another truth: The civil rights guys are not that excited about this, because Obama\u2019s not down for the struggle. He\u2019s really not. He doesn\u2019t come from the civil rights struggle. He doesn\u2019t come from any of that. He has to fake that, and these guys… You\u2019ll not see any evidence of this, obviously, but they\u2019re a little bit uncomfortable about it. I mean, the number one, most powerful black man in America is not down to the struggle. <\/p>\n

Some of them tell me this privately. I say, “You\u2019ve got nothing to worry about in that sense, because you\u2019re getting pretty much everything you wanted.” And they say, “Yeah, well, look at black unemployment!” They\u2019re not happy about that. I said, “Well, you don\u2019t have to look at Obama for that. Just look at your own policies. I mean, you sign on to everything the guy wants to do. You guys are sitting around doing all this damage to the private sector economy. <\/p>\n

“There are less and less opportunities, fewer and fewer jobs.” They really thought that the first African-American president would be doling out some special things for the black community. It hasn\u2019t happened, and the unemployment numbers show it. So you got the big Martin Luther King speech, and you\u2019ll never see this, but they\u2019re not really excited about the fact that Obama is doing it<\/a>. (interruption)<\/p>\n

Well, he has, but he hasn\u2019t been able to get \u2019em out of poverty. He hasn\u2019t been able to get \u2019em all jobs. They were given phones and food stamps before Obama got out of office. I mean, those things have been around — food stamps have been around — forever. The point is Obama has not done anything exclusively and especially for the black community, other than talk. (interruption) “Michelle has a garden.”<\/p>\n

Big whoop! That\u2019s the point. <\/p>\n

They\u2019ve got it all, but it\u2019s not utopia or panacea out there. <\/p>\n

“When President Obama follows in Martin Luther King Jr.\u00c2\u2019s footsteps on Wednesday with an address at the Lincoln Memorial, he will face a nation where race remains the great divide. Black lawmakers,” and I\u2019m sure some of the ones that have spoken to me privately, “say the election of the nation\u2019s first African-America president has not been a salve for racial tensions, a view that the public has also voiced in recent polling.<\/p>\n

“While Democratic lawmakers place the lion\u2019s share of the blame on Republicans for the state of affairs, they betray disappointment that more progress has not been made since the civil rights movement won its biggest victories.” This is TheHill.com. I\u2019ll tell you, this dovetails with what I have been hearing privately. You know, some of these people really thought that there would be improvement in racial relations with the election of the first black president. <\/p>\n

But he\u2019s not one down for the struggle, for one. <\/p>\n

Number two, it was easy to predict that race relations were only gonna get worse. I predicted that. It was easy to predict that. All you have to do is criticize the president, and, because he\u2019s black, you\u2019ve got racism. There was no hope for race relations to get any better. It couldn\u2019t happen. The election of the first black president, people were hoping that the election itself would say it all. Just the results. <\/p>\n

But what people forgot was that presidents get criticized, whether they\u2019re from Mars, whether they\u2019re from Hawaii, or wherever they\u2019re from. But this one happens to be the first African-American, and so criticism of him is, and always was gonna be, racism, and therefore not permitted. Right here it is in TheHill.com. It\u2019s the Martin Luther King 50th anniversary, and they\u2019re not all happy in the civil rights coalition, folks. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
