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

RUSH: Here\u2019s Art in Windsor, Connecticut, as we go back to the phones. Hello, sir.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Rush, how you doing?<\/p>\n

RUSH: I\u2019m fine, sir. Thank you.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Look, I just think, you know, there used to be laws that said black people can\u2019t marry white people. I don\u2019t think this is any different. I mean, if you\u2019re gay and you want to marry somebody who\u2019s gay, marry somebody who\u2019s gay. That\u2019s your business. What is the business of the state government or the federal government telling me who I can and can\u2019t marry?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

RUSH: You are serious with this? You want to equate interracial marriage to homosexual marriage?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, I think that a person should be able to make their own personal decision. I think actually this should be something the Republican Party should be in support of. It\u2019s individual rights, you can marry whoever you want.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You don\u2019t have to worry, the Republican Party\u2019s moving in that direction, it is.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yep.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, let me ask you this. Where does this freedom to do what you want stuff stop? And what, in your case, what would two people wanting to do raise a red flag for you? What would you say, “Now, wait a minute, no, no, no, you shouldn\u2019t do that?”<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, I think if you were talking about like a three-party marriage, an eight-party marriage —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Why? If you love one, you can love two. What if all three people love each other and they want the benefits and all that, who among us should deny those three people their love?<\/p>\n

CALLER: I think they can be loved, I just don\u2019t think you need to give it a legal status because —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Why not?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Because two people would make a family, they could raise kids, adopt kids, do whatever they want, I don\u2019t think —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Wait a minute. But why can\u2019t three people do that? In fact, if you have two of the same sex and one of the opposite sex, you\u2019ve handled the adoption issue. You don\u2019t need to adopt. You can have one woman and two guys in a marriage, and the woman could be impregnated by the two, and, voila, you got a family.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I don\u2019t see that. <\/p>\n

RUSH: You got a lot of love and what could possibly be wrong with that?<\/p>\n

CALLER: I think society\u2019s determined that two spouses, two people —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, wait, society\u2019s determined, you know, by the way, human civilization, from the beginning of time, has determined that marriage is a union of a man and a woman. The Republicans didn\u2019t do it.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Conservatives didn\u2019t do it.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Churchill didn\u2019t do it. Margaret Thatcher didn\u2019t do it. Gorbachev didn\u2019t do. It was humanity which did it. You just said society has determined that — well, society has determined that marriage is between a man and a woman, but I don\u2019t think society\u2019s right in that case. <\/p>\n

CALLER: No, no. I don\u2019t agree with you. I think society has evolved away from that. I think the people in general think that you want if you want to marry somebody you should be able to marry them.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, someday society is gonna evolve away from marriage by two people and could be three or four, and you\u2019re gonna oppose that then for some reason. You\u2019re gonna deny those people their love.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, I would. I would oppose that.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Why? I don\u2019t understand. Why would you discriminate that way? What does the number matter when we\u2019re talking about love here?<\/p>\n

CALLER: ‘Cause I think that in general, two people are necessary to raise a family unit. You need two parents.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, why? Because every family\u2019s got grandparents and aunts and uncles. It\u2019s always more than just two people raising the child. It\u2019s a village doing it sometimes in the Clintons\u2019 case.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Not in my family. I never had the village come to my house and raise my family. I think it generally takes two people. I\u2019m not homosexual. I became a Republican after Lieberman got thrown out of the Democratic Party —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Right.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

CALLER: — because I said if the party doesn\u2019t have enough room for Joe Lieberman, it doesn\u2019t have enough room for me. But I think that once that decision has been made, that in our society, financially and economically, you need who people to raise —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, let me play devil\u2019s advocate with you because in the case of homosexual marriage, without additional steps, those two people can\u2019t produce a family.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right, they can\u2019t. They\u2019d have to adopt. But then you\u2019d have to —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, adopt or have a surrogate, artificial womb somewhere.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yes. Or you\u2019d have to say I\u2019ve got, you know —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Do you think maybe society — (crosstalk)<\/p>\n

CALLER: — sterile woman —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Do you think marriage evolved in society precisely because it takes one of each sex to make another human being?<\/p>\n

CALLER: It used to.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Let me ask you this. Do you believe or not believe, do you think it matters or not that a child grow up with two parents or one?<\/p>\n

CALLER: I think in an ideal world it\u2019s better to have a male and female parent, but I think that the world is never ideal and I think having two parents of the same sex is better than having one parent who is not the same sex.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Why do you think that?<\/p>\n

CALLER: I think two-parents are better than one parent. I think two parents help to raise a family properly, and I think it really helps if you have a two-parent family.<\/p>\n

RUSH: But why? What do two accomplish that one can\u2019t?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, they produce more income. They have more time to divide among their kids. If one parent needs to take the kids to school and the other one needs to go to work, they can do that, I mean they can divide the — it\u2019s a more resource available situation.<\/p>\n

RUSH: But with feminism you don\u2019t have anybody at home anymore. Both husband and wife go off to work and they either got day care or a nanny or somebody else not in the family raising the kid.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I think that was a temporary thing. I think that\u2019s kind of shifting back the other way now, as you were talking about just a few days ago, I think, weren\u2019t you?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, the phenomenon, yes, of feminist women deciding after birth that, “You know what? I think I want to stay home with the child.” Yes, that is happening.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right.<\/p>\n

RUSH: It has been happening for awhile. So we could say that you hate single mothers. You hate single parents.<\/p>\n

CALLER: No, I don\u2019t think you could say that. I just think it\u2019s not the ideal situation.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, no, but that\u2019s what\u2019s gonna happen to you. I just want to warn you, you\u2019re gonna become a hater and a bigot. This is how the people, if there\u2019s a movement out there for single parent families and it\u2019s perfectly fine, it\u2019s nobody\u2019s business, but you, Art, come along say, “No, there have to be two parents, even if the same sex,” you are gonna become a hater if you oppose the single parent family movement, should there ever be one, you will be called a hater and a bigot. I\u2019m just trying to prepare you for it.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, thanks, Rush. I appreciate the update there.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Okay, so our caller here hates single mothers. That\u2019s what we\u2019ve learned today from Art —<\/p>\n

CALLER: All right, thank you.<\/p>\n

RUSH: — at the end of the call. Art, I appreciate your call. I really do. I hope you have a wonderful day out there. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: There is a movement in this country that you don\u2019t hear much about called polyamory. Our caller Art said, “Oh, no, no, no. No, no, no. That\u2019s where I draw the line.” You can\u2019t have more than two people get married.<\/p>\n

Well, there\u2019s a movement for that, and the proponents are being urged to shut up about it and just do it. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Now, we had a guy on the phone here a moment ago named Art who steadfastly maintained that he does have limits on this stuff. He thinks it\u2019s fine if two men want to get married and if two women want to get married. That\u2019s cool. None of our business. They love each other, that\u2019s great. And two parents, even the same sex, better than a single parent. So Art clearly hates single parents, as things work out in America today. But I said, “Well, okay, Art, at what point will these kind of arrangements become something you can\u2019t agree with?” He said, “Well, three people, if three people want to get married, I\u2019m gonna draw the line.” <\/p>\n

“Why?” <\/p>\n

“Well, it\u2019s just too many.” <\/p>\n

“Well, why? I mean, the more love, the better. Two people in love, three people in love. Two people of one sex, one of the opposite sex, I mean you got constant sex that way and you\u2019ve got constant babies being born, and, oh, you don\u2019t need adoption.” <\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

That did it. He couldn\u2019t go for that. I kept probing. Why not? What\u2019s wrong with three? Why not four? It\u2019s just like the minimum wage argument. You can eventually reach an amount that even proponents say is too much. And here with the gay marriage argument, you can construct a definition of marriage that even proponents of same-sex marriage will say, “No, no, no, no, that\u2019s going too far.” But, see, once you cancel the definition of marriage, then it can become anything. And that\u2019s another thing that Roberts is saying. Once you take something that has a specific definition, and you obliterate that, then it can become anything you want and there\u2019s no limit to it. <\/p>\n

So there\u2019s a church out there, folks, called the Unitarian church. Many of you have heard of it. You just don\u2019t want people to know that you know. There\u2019s a joke about Unitarians. The joke is — and this is the Washington Post saying this. This is not an El Rushbo joke, just so you know. It\u2019s right here in the Washington Post. “The joke about Unitarians is that they\u00c2\u2019re where you go when you don\u00c2\u2019t know where to go. Theirs is the religion of last resort for the intermarried, the ambivalent, the folks who want a faith community without too many rules. It is perhaps no surprise that the Unitarian Universalist Association is one of the fastest-growing denominations in the country, ballooning 15 percent over the past decade.<\/p>\n

“But within the ranks of the UUA over the past few years, there has been some quiet unrest concerning a small but activist group that vociferously supports polyamory. That is to say ‘the practice of loving and relating intimately to more than one other person at a time.'” Now, you people in Rio Linda know all about this. But for the rest of you, polyamory is loving and relating to three people in a relationship, four people in a relationship at the same time. And the Unitarians have “a mission statement by Unitarian Universalists for Polyamory Awareness (UUPA).” That\u2019s the acronym, UUPA. He-he. It is. “The UUPA ‘encourages spiritual wholeness regarding polyamory.'” <\/p>\n

Now, here\u2019s the problem. What\u2019s the limit? Where do you draw the line on polyamory? Two women and one man? One women and six men? Three women and two men? Twelve people? Where do you draw the line? The line has not been drawn. The polyamorists don\u2019t want any such lines. They don\u2019t want any limits whatsoever. A great example of this would be the famous rapper Shawty Lo<\/a>. Remember him? He was gonna have that great TV show, the rapper in Atlanta. The Oxygen network canceled it. Boy, this guy was ahead of his time. This guy had 11 kids with ten baby mamas. They canceled this show because it was upsetting. But this guy fits right in now. That show could be exactly what\u2019s called for, especially to humiliate Roberts. You know, you could put that show on a DVD and drop it off at Roberts\u2019 office and say, “Here, these are my friends.” <\/p>\n

So it is happening out there within the Unitarian church. But the headline of this story is: “Many Unitarians Would Prefer That Their Polyamory Activists Keep Quiet.” In other words, don\u2019t talk about it, don\u2019t call attention to what we\u2019re doing here, just do it. If you have a spiritual wholeness and an intimate relationship with three people, do it, but don\u2019t tell anybody. Don\u2019t run around and brag about it when you go to the IHOP, you know, just do it. And this church is growing.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Here is Paul in Ottawa, Canada. Hi, Paul. I\u2019m glad that you called and got through. Welcome.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hi there. Great White North mega dittos.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Thank you, sir, very much.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Okay. You\u2019re absolutely right in what you say about, if same-sex marriage is made a civil right, then it\u2019s gonna brand everybody who\u2019s opposed to it as a bigot. That\u2019s pretty much what\u2019s happened up here, and it hits hardest on teenagers, I think, really, \u2019cause the peer pressure they face from other teenagers or from the educational system is really intense. You know, at times it drives a real wedge between parents and children.<\/p>\n

RUSH: That is exactly the ploy being used here.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yup.<\/p>\n

RUSH: This is the #1 issue among people under 30 in this country, even conservative young people under 30, and it is this technique that has secured it. I think you\u2019re right.<\/p>\n

CALLER: It often drives a real wedge between both kids and their church as well if they\u2019re active in a church. It really goes beyond just branding individuals as bigots, though. If you say that same-sex marriage is a human right or a civil right or something along those lines, then every single church that stands for traditional marriage suddenly becomes like the KKK. That\u2019s a very dangerous situation to be in.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Because they\u2019re opposed to “civil rights.” The KKK was opposed to civil rights, and gay marriage is a civil right. So if you\u2019re opposed to it, you\u2019re no different than the Klan.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah. So how can the government justify giving you a break on property taxes or counting you as a charity if you\u2019re an organization opposed to a civil right.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Exactly.<\/p>\n

CALLER: In fact, there\u2019s actually a legal precedent.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Right!<\/p>\n

CALLER: That would give the government a lot of power to impose very harsh penalties on churches under that circumstance. If you go back to the late 1800s where there was this big fight between Mormons — who were practicing polygamy, that definition of marriage — and the federal government that had a monogamous definition of marriage, was a bill passed called the Edmunds-Tucker Act. That law wound up stripping anyone who didn\u2019t accept, like swear an oath to accept the state\u2019s definition of marriage, of rights.<\/p>\n

If you didn\u2019t do that, you did not have the right to vote. You did not have the right to serve in a public office. You did not have the right to serve as a juror. Wives could be compelled to testify against their husbands or be sent to jail if they didn\u2019t. The Mormon Church itself was dis-incorporated and its assets were seized. And, you know, this sets a legal precedent that could be turned around at Catholics, Baptists, Mormons again, and every other church that holds to traditional marriage if you go and say that same-sex marriage is a right.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Right. You know, it\u2019s not just that. It also works on the Manhattan, under-30, bar scene conservatives. Nobody wants to be called a bigot. Nobody wants to be thought of as discriminating against “love,” which is apparently a commodity in short supply.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yes.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Because whenever people find it, we\u2019re supposed to stop everything and celebrate it. It\u2019s so hard to find it out there now that when it is discovered, we gotta stop and celebrate it and proclaim support for it no matter what. Let me ask you this philosophically: Could we get to the point where we would say opposite-sex couples are bigoted because they\u2019re not marrying people of the same sex?<\/p>\n

CALLER: (pause) Possibly. You know, give it time. I think anything\u2019s possible.<\/p>\n

RUSH: (laughing)<\/p>\n

CALLER: I think the real issue here isn\u2019t, you know, is same-sex marriage a right or not but who gets to decide what\u2019s a human right or not. That really is fundamental to what kind of government you have. You know, if you have a monarchy, the king has the ultimate power. If it\u2019s a theocracy, then some church or religious body has the ultimate power. Who has the ultimate power in the United States to decide what\u2019s a human right and what isn\u2019t? Is it some oligarchy of judges or politicians, or is it the people?<\/p>\n

RUSH: It\u2019s a combination of both, but it\u2019s an oligarchy of judges that are deciding everything in this country. But you raise a good point: How long will it be before churches lose their tax deductions if they don\u2019t perform same-sex marriages? I\u2019m not joking. People who engage in opposite-sex marriage, are they going to someday be bigots for not marrying somebody of the same sex? Which is the popular and hip thing to be doing. (interruption) Now, Snerdley, you\u2019re smirking at me, but I\u2019m just taking this…<\/p>\n

See, I love logic and I love context. I love to take things and ask, “Okay, do something today. Where will it lead down the road?” Which hardly anybody thinks about. (interruption) Why do we think it\u2019s popular? (interruption) What, same-sex marriage? (interruption) Well, Snerdley is telling me that everybody he knows is sick and tired of hearing about it and they just want it to go away. I will have to concur. A lot of my friends have a different reason they want it to go away.<\/p>\n

They don\u2019t care.<\/p>\n

They are so worried about what\u2019s happening to the economy, they are so worried about what their kids\u2019 futures economically are not gonna be, that they don\u2019t care about this. They think, “Just to hell with it! Why are we wasting time on something like this that doesn\u2019t matter?” That also is being taken advantage of in pushing the effort. But, you see, the reason why it all matters and the reason why it\u2019s all linked… (big sigh) Boy, am I gonna get in trouble in this. It\u2019s just whole concept of morality.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s gotta be a moral foundation to every aspect of life in a free society or it\u2019s gonna vanish. We were talking earlier about this. When freedom is defined as anything you want to do with no moral underpinning, with no virtue attached, freedom without virtue is not really freedom. And I forget, Oz somebody, his book, I quoted from. I forget his last name, but he said this is the root to the decline of free societies is this open-ended definition of freedom to which no virtue is attached. “Hello, Rome,” for example, is his point. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
