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

RUSH: David, Mattoon, Illinois, welcome to the EIB Network. Hello.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Thank you, sir. I appreciate your taking my call. And I want to say thanks also. I was raised a Kennedy Democrat. I was born in 1959, so I was raised as a Kennedy Democrat and after serving in the Navy and listening to you when you first went national, I was converted. So thank you very much.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You bet, sir.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I was wanting to comment. Earlier you had mentioned about the low-information<\/a>, lower-income class feeling that the federal government has swooped in while they weren\u2019t looking and took all of their money. I don\u2019t understand where they think it\u2019s going or, you know, they surely can\u2019t —<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

RUSH: Not thinking. No, no. This is purely an emotional thing. It\u2019s not that they government has swooped in; it\u2019s the rich have swooped in and taken what they have. Look, I\u2019ve only got 30 seconds in this segment, so I\u2019m gonna have to expand on this in the next segment. But this is a common emotional ploy that has been used and is continually used in order to persuade people within the confines or under the umbrella of grievance politics. And that is what\u2019s happening. Let me expand on this, take another obscene profit time-out here at the bottom of the hour. We\u2019ll do that and I\u2019ll explain in even greater detail when we get back.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Now, our last caller wanted to talk about how the middle class has been convinced that they once were rich, but he said the government came and took their money. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s not the government that took their money. What has been effectively accomplished here, and it\u2019s not just with the middle class and poor, it happens racially. I guarantee you — and I wouldn\u2019t, if I were you, deny this — there are African-Americans alive today who still think that there\u2019s slavery going on. There are African-Americans today who know that slavery isn\u2019t going on but they\u2019re still so ticked off that it did that it may as well still be happening. Now, this is done on purpose. The civil rights leaders keep this emotion ginned up. They profit from it, and they are able to advance their political agenda as a result of it. <\/p>\n

So you have now this movie, Django Unchained, Jamie Foxx and Samuel L. Jackson are the stars. They\u2019re running around in promos and interviews and hypes for this movie, and the things that they are saying, if you didn\u2019t know better, you\u2019d think it was pre-Civil War in this country and this movie somehow got made telling the truth and that we better wise up, there are still slaves. Samuel L. Jackson was doing an interview for the movie with a television reporter, some local station. They do these prerelease interviews. The guy was asking about the number of times the N-word\u2019s used in the movie. It\u2019s used constantly in this movie, and it\u2019s been criticized. And so this guy interviewing Samuel L. Jackson asked him about it. <\/p>\n
