RUSH: Yeah, yeah, Sequester Soul Train. Yeah, yeah, I\u2019m gonna get to that. Here we are again. Everybody has their favorite thing they want me to talk about. I can\u2019t mention everything in the first five minutes. Well, I can mention it, but that\u2019s all I can do. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Sequester Soul Train. I mean, here we are in the middle of the sequester — do you realize, folks, the Blue Angels have been grounded all year? This is the greatest PR for the Navy that there is, the Blue Angels, grounded for the whole year. The same thing with the Air Force Thunderbirds, grounded because of the sequester. I mean, we couldn\u2019t find one of 126… “Well, it\u2019s a defense budget cut.” I know, and they\u2019re taking nonessential stuff, but make no mistake, they\u2019re cutting things like that that people will notice to try to illustrate how mean and insensitive and cruel the budget cuts are.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Anyway, while all that\u2019s going on, you\u2019ve got the soul brothers express in the White House, some Memphis soul stew going on there last night. Jessica Biel, who is the bride of Justin Timberlake is tweeting (imitation), “I hugged POTUS! I hugged POTUS! I hugged POTUS!” She didn\u2019t even send out a tweet, “I hugged my husband! I hugged my husband!” after they got married. But she\u2019s tweeting she hugged POTUS. Anyway, I think it\u2019s embarrassing, folks. You talk about conspicuous consumption and a display of it. <\/line>I mean, it\u2019s all part of the performances at the White House series, and it\u2019s supposed to be cultural enrichment, but what it is is Obama jamming it down everybody\u2019s throats.<\/line><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve got a country in decay, we have a dying country<\/a>, and there\u2019s the president partying down the day after — I still, ladies and gentlemen, I still can\u2019t believe that the president of the United States actually said we\u2019ve got to make it harder to gun down our kids.<\/a> That is one of the most undignified, unpresidential utterances that I\u2019ve heard from anyone, including Clinton (impression), “I didn\u2019t have sex with that woman, not a single time, and I never asked anybody to lie, never.” And it all gets lumped in the same category. It\u2019s just beneath the dignity of the office. “We\u2019ve gotta make it harder to gun down our kids.” I don\u2019t know, especially with some of the parents of kids at Sandy Hook elementary school standing there, flying around on Air Force One, the economy in the tank. I don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n
