Audio sound bite number 23. Dingy Harry.<\/p>\n<p>Today was a big day.  Statuary Hall, Capitol Hill, they unveiled a statue of Rosa Parks.  Snerdley, do you know who Rosa Parks is?  For the low-information voter out, what was Rosa Parks known for?  Right.  She was in Alabama in the early sixties and she tried to get on a bus in Alabama and the driver said, &#8220;You gotta move to the back.&#8221;  You had to give up your seat and move to the back because a white guy is getting on the bus now.  She refused to give up her seat, and she has become a hero.  From that moment on, she was a heroin for the rest of her life and remains so.  And today they had a statue unveiled that was erected in her honor at Statuary Hall in the Capitol. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_73369\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ReidCSPAN022713.jpg\"\/><BR\/>Of course everybody went up there, a big speech. Obama, Nancy Pelosi, I didn\u2019t see the Reverend Jackson.  I didn\u2019t see the Justice Brothers.  I didn\u2019t see the civil rights coalition up there.  That\u2019s okay.  Obama was there, Pelosi was there, and Dingy Harry.  Now, I\u2019m gonna play a sound bite here from Dingy Harry, and I want to remind you what I have said over the course of the last four years with Obama in the White House.  Obama believes this country was founded illegitimately, unjustly, was immoral.  You\u2019ve heard me go through that whole riff.  Here is Harry Reid basically proving it with this sound bite today on Capitol Hill.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>REID:  Two of the best motion pictures this year were nominated for Academy Awards. Lincoln and Django Unchained offered cinematic treatments of the legacy of our nation\u2019s darkest institution:  slavery.  One film presents an unvarnished view of the evils of slavery.  The other depicts our difficult journey to end slavery.  It\u2019s significant that 150 years after president Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation, we\u2019re still considering in film and photo and art and activism how to eradicate slavery\u2019s unsavory successors: racism and inequality.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"585\" height=\"315\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4kNOCSgOFuc\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  See?  We haven\u2019t made any progress.  We effectively still have slavery in this country.  And, of course, Sheila Jackson Lee on the floor of the House last week said that she was standing there as a freed slave.  A member of this audience called her office and wanted to know who owned her and therefore who had sold her and what he got for her, and her office had no idea what he was talking about.  But she said, &#8220;I stand before you today as a freed slave.&#8221;  So they\u2019re operating on the premise it\u2019s still alive and kicking.  It\u2019s just now we call it racism and inequality, but there\u2019s still slavery.  And it\u2019s one of the many bases on which they proceed to shape policy in the country. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Do you know why they did the Rosa Parks statue dedication today? Do you know what else is going on today in Washington? No, it\u2019s not before the sequester. It\u2019s because the Supreme Court is discussing the Voting Rights Act in the South today. You know, this is another thing. I\u2019m not a high-information guy on everything. There are certain things I am low information on. I do not understand this.<\/p>\n<p>This Voting Rights Act goes back to 1964. I can\u2019t believe that we still haven\u2019t fixed the problems with voting that we had back in 1964, and I don\u2019t believe that we haven\u2019t. I think what we have is a bunch of muckraking, filing lawsuits over it. We\u2019re not preventing anybody from voting. What did I read the other day, some woman in Chicago voted for Obama six times? The Voting Rights Act? The idea that there are still those powerful Democrats with dogs and water hoses keeping African-Americans from voting?<\/p>\n<p>Who believes this anymore?<\/p>\n<p>I guess some conservative justices like Scalia might actually believe that the South doesn\u2019t need to be overseen by the federal government to stop them from denying blacks the vote, because that\u2019s what the case is. I frankly think it\u2019s bogus. The Voting Rights Act is still being violated? That act goes be back 50 years! Anyway, that\u2019s why they had the Rosa Parks statue dedication today, because it all ties in with that Supreme Court case. The oral arguments or things going on today. Something is happening with it. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Do you want to hear some more madness? Audio sound bite number 23. Dingy Harry. Today was a big day.
