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

RUSH: Audio sound bite number three, Tony Kushner, this is last night on Charlie Rose, PBS. Now, Tony Kushner was the screenwriter for the movie Lincoln. This guy is heralded as the best at what he does in Hollywood, and, as such, he\u2019s considered to be the smartest, the most brilliant screenwriter. This guy, nobody can touch him. And they were talking about his screenplay. Charlie Rose says, “At the end of the line when you\u2019ve finished and you made the movie, what did you think you knew about Lincoln that you really didn\u2019t know before?”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

KUSHNER: Obama faced in \u201908 a situation, you know, as bad as any president since the Great Depression. What Obama inherited from the Bush administration is, you know, we all remember, is just an absolute global catastrophe on every level, and I think he\u2019s done an astonishing job beginning to turn that around. And like, uh, Lincoln, there\u2019s an enormous amount of criticism of our president that comes from an impatience with, “You said that you were, you know, going to do this. You said you were gonna do that. Why hasn\u2019t it happened?” And the fact of the matter is that when you\u2019re elected president of the United States, rather than king of the United States, you have to work with a very cumbrous, unwieldy machinery.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Typical Hollywood intellectual. (impression) “Yes, uh, uh, what Obama faced in \u201908 was a situation, you know, as bad as any president since the Great Depression, Charlie, and what Obama inherited from the Bush administration is, as you know, as we all remember, the absolute global catastrophe on every level, and I think he\u2019s done an astonishing job of beginning to turn it around.” These guys are all making my point. They don\u2019t even know it. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: I have two more Tony Kushner bites, but time for one. The Lincoln movie screenwriter, totally wrong in everything he thinks, but you\u2019ll never talk him out of it. He\u2019s an intellectual. George Bush, I mean, it was just horrible, it was a global catastrophe. Now, here\u2019s the next sound bite of Kushner talking to Charlie Rose about Obama.<\/p>\n

KUSHNER: What I think he\u2019s done that Lincoln did was to constantly articulate for the people while making sausages, while making these compromises. The place that we\u2019re ultimately headed for, he\u2019s been very careful to say that he rejects the idea that government is evil. There\u2019s a rejection of the sort of basic idea of human community behind the Reagan, behind Reagan era ideology that is really frightening and that leads us to terrible, terrible places. We have no hope for survival as a species if we continue down the path of this kind of psychotic individualism. <\/p>\n

RUSH: Now, this is just blubber. It\u2019s pure gobbledygook and gibberish, but these guys think they\u2019re the smartest people in the room and they believe all this.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Please indulge me as I play two more bites. I want to replay sound bite number four. We just aired it. Tony Kushner was articulating where we\u2019re headed, or talking about what Obama is doing. Obama\u2019s telling us where we are headed. Obama\u2019s not causing anything. He\u2019s telling us where we\u2019re headed. Obama\u2019s policies aren\u2019t responsible for this. We\u2019re still living with the residue of Reagan!<\/p>\n

We\u2019re living with the residue of Bush, the global catastrophe that Bush was on every level. Now, I have to tell you: I\u2019m sitting here listening to this, and I am incredulous. This guy is supposedly one of the smartest screenwriters ever. Tony Kushner is the screenwriter for Lincoln. Now, you and I know that the Bush administration was entirely lied about, mischaracterized, mis-caricatured, from the supposedly early days of the recession.<\/p>\n

I mean, with the Bush presidency, we had unemployment at an all-time low of 4.7%. Economic growth was through the roof! We came out of two recessions, including that caused by the big 9\/11 attack. We had a robust, roaring economy. But what was lurking in the midst of it (that some people knew and didn\u2019t tell us about but most people didn\u2019t know) was the subprime mortgage crisis that was about ready to blow up and undermine everything.<\/p>\n

Even that, Bush\u2019s relationship to it was to try to stop it via regulation, and he was shot down by the Democrats. But what has been done in revising the truth of the Reagan years, and what was done during the Bush years to mischaracterize what was happening at the time, was an amazing feat of political lying and propaganda. It\u2019s to the point that this guy, Tony Kushner, actually believes — with his 140, Mensa IQ– that the Bush administration was a global catastrophe!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Obama campaigned on the fact it was a global catastrophe, that the world hated us and worse. So Obama, all he\u2019s trying to do is fix all of this. It\u2019s a job that no one man can do in four years. So here. Here\u2019s Kushner drawing comparisons between Obama and Lincoln, and again detailing just how deeply rooted the problems of Reaganism are and how much work is still ahead in correcting all of that.<\/p>\n

KUSHNER: What I think he\u2019s done that Lincoln did was to constantly articulate for the people while making sausages, while making these compromises. The place that we\u2019re ultimately headed for, he\u2019s been very careful to say that he rejects the idea that government is evil. There\u2019s a rejection of the sort of basic idea of human community behind the Reagan, behind Reagan era ideology that is really frightening and that leads us to terrible, terrible places. We have no hope for survival as a species if we continue down the path of this kind of psychotic individualism.<\/p>\n

RUSH: “Psychotic individualism.” We have no hope for survival as a species with this Reagan-era “psychotic individualism,” and that\u2019s what Obama\u2019s fixing. That\u2019s where we\u2019re headed. We\u2019re headed away from all that, and he\u2019s working hard! Yeah, it\u2019s causing a lot of pain, but the pain\u2019s actually being caused by Reagan policies and Bush policies. Obama, it\u2019s a yeoman\u2019s effort he\u2019s engaging here to try to correct all of this, and he sees Obama as a revolutionary!<\/p>\n

Listen to this next bite. Tony Kushner, screenwriter for Lincoln, says that Obama is not to be judged based on the results of his presidency or on the conditions in which people live. I don\u2019t know how better you could make my point than this one.<\/p>\n

KUSHNER: I know so many people that woke up on election morning — where I live on the Upper West Side, at any rate (snickering) woke up thinking — “Oh, my God, what if at the end of the night we have Mitt Romney as president, and, you know, what does that say about the American people, and w-w-what…? You know, is democracy a bad idea?” It\u2019s still a question. I\u2019m also really interested in change and the question of time and change. When Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation Karl Marx of all people in England said, “Abraham Lincoln has now changed this conflict from a Civil War to a revolution.” There\u2019s a deep, deep place in the popular imagination, especially the left imagination, for revolution. It\u2019s… Uh, Walter Benjamin likens it to th-the anticipation of The Messiah coming.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, yeah, he\u2019s got it. You got Barack Obama! You have “the anticipation of The Messiah coming,” and what does it say about the American people that we might have elected Romney? But Obama is to be judge as a revolutionary, not based on the results of his presidency or the conditions in which people live. That\u2019s so beneath Obama as a person. For people to judge Obama based on the results of Obama\u2019s presidency or the conditions in which they live? Obama\u2019s so much more than that!<\/p>\n

He\u2019s messianic!<\/p>\n

He\u2019s leading a revolution!<\/p>\n

Now, Tony Kushner\u2019s best-known work is something called Angels in America. Angels in America is a seven-hour epic about the AIDS epidemic in the Reagan era in New York in which Reagan is blamed for AIDS. If you recall, Reagan was blamed for AIDS, and you know why? Because he never talked about it. Honestly, folks, when I began to hear all this talk that Reagan was responsible for the AIDS epidemic, I said, “Wow, has Reagan been making love with that many people? I didn\u2019t know that!<\/p>\n

“Has Reagan been out there messing around with people at night over in Lafayette Park and nobody knew?” No, it wasn\u2019t that. He just never talked about it. Reagan didn\u2019t care about it. That\u2019s why he was responsible for AIDS. Tony Kushner\u2019s newest completed work is a play called, “The Intelligent Homosexual\u2019s Guide to Capitalism and Socialism with a Key to the Scriptures — Tony Kushner\u2019s socialist spectacular.” So that\u2019s one explanation for the way he thinks. Well, he\u2019s in Hollywood. He\u2019s successful because he\u2019s in Hollywood.<\/p>\n

He is a perfect reflection of the current makeup of Hollywood. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
