Stop saying it\u2019s a Watergate. Stop saying it\u2019s Iran-Contra.  Let the facts speak for themselves.  Have a special committee, a select committee, the facts will speak for themselves, pile \u2019em on; but don\u2019t exaggerate, don\u2019t run ads about Hillary.  It feeds the narrative of the other side that it\u2019s only a political event.  It is not.  Just be quiet and present the facts.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Okay, so shhhhh.  Don\u2019t say anything, folks.  &#8216;Cause all you\u2019re gonna do is make the independents mad, and they\u2019ll just run back to the Democrats.  Don\u2019t pile on.  Don\u2019t gloat.  Don\u2019t say, &#8220;I told you so.&#8221;  Just let the facts speak for themselves, just shh, shh, shh, shh, it\u2019ll take care of itself. No matter what the Democrats do, no matter what they say about you, no matter what they say about us, you just shh, shh, don\u2019t say anything.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Now, Charles Krauthammer on Fox last night said that we need to let the facts speak for themselves and that you people are making a mistake, Republicans are making a mistake, if you compare this to Watergate or if you compare this to Iran-Contra. Don\u2019t call Obama Nixon! You know, don\u2019t exaggerate. Don\u2019t run ads on Hillary. Just let the facts speak, \u2019cause if you do all that stuff, that\u2019s gonna feed the narrative that all you are is political, and that all you are is trying to defeat Obama politically and then people aren\u2019t gonna like you.<\/p>\n<p>So with that in mind, let\u2019s go to sound bite number eight. It\u2019s the NBC Nightly News. The anchor, Brian Williams, was talking about the AP phone records scandal and the IRS targeting conservative groups.<\/p>\n<p>WILLIAMS:  As a lot of American adults not so fondly remember the last time the government was found looking into the phone calls of reporters and using the IRS for political purposes, it was the Nixon era.  And while times have changed and circumstances are different, that subject came up at the Obama White House today as the administration now scrambles on several fronts.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Oh.  Brian Williams there just compared Obama to Nixon.  Supposed back off, let the facts speak for themselves. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Now, I\u2019ve had people say, &#8220;Rush, how do we handle this?
