It\u2019s time to call Obama out on all this. He gets away with all these lies or &#8220;misstatements&#8221; or &#8220;exaggerations&#8221; or what have you, and the press doesn\u2019t call him on it. I just decided that I\u2019m not gonna sit here and assume that everybody in this audience, at least, knows it\u2019s BS. I\u2019m not gonna take the chance.<\/p>\n<p>I left off with, I think, contraceptives, and this notion that Obama\u2019s setting up for women this election. He claims that he\u2019s gonna ensure that women will have access to birth control pills. He\u2019s making a big deal out of that so-called War on Women, and yet nowhere in this country is it impossible or even difficult for anybody to get contraceptives. It doesn\u2019t matter who the president is.<\/p>\n<p>It doesn\u2019t matter who the president is about abortion. There\u2019s no president who can stop abortion. There\u2019s no president that can or will ban birth control pills. Remember how this all started, this War on Women thing? It was back in January, and it was a Republican primary debate, and George Stephanopoulos asked Romney if he thought contraception should be banned.<\/p>\n<p>Romney didn\u2019t know what the hell he was talking about. Nobody has ever suggested banning it. (paraphrased exchange) He said, &#8220;George, I don\u2019t know what you\u2019re talking about.&#8221; &#8220;Well, should a state be able to if it wants to, Governor?&#8221; &#8220;Well, George, nobody\u2019s talking about that.&#8221; But that didn\u2019t matter. Now it was out there that Romney had talked about banning contraceptives. Stephanopoulos put the question out, Romney answered it, and therefore the narrative was complete.<\/p>\n<p>They could then say in the media: &#8220;Romney talked about banning contraceptives!&#8221; That\u2019s how dishonest they are and how they work, and it had to be coordinated because not long after that, here came this whole notion there\u2019s a War on Women out there, where Republicans want to deny women birth control pills. Everybody\u2019s sitting there scratching their heads. &#8220;What in the world is this all about?&#8221; Nobody ever thought about denying birth control pills to anybody, ever.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s not one Republican who thinks about that kind of thing, and certainly not in a political sense, not political issue-wise. But it was there. Stephanopoulos had to ask it two or three times because Romney was so stupefied. All Romney had to do was just say anything, just answer the question, and the press had the narrative: &#8220;Romney talked about banning contraceptives last night!&#8221; And that got the whole <a view=\"line\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=16350\">War on Women <\/a>thing going.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_67441\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaCollageSmart.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>And in the campaign even now, Obama\u2019s running around and he\u2019s trying to make women think that Romney is gonna be standing in the aisle at Walgreens. When they walk in there to get their birth control pills, Mitt Romney\u2019s gonna be there hiding them and telling them they can\u2019t have them. And you and I say, &#8220;Who in the world is gonna believe this?&#8221; Sadly, there are some who do apparently. Remember, <a view=\"line\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=14473\">he\u2019s trying to coalesce the Moron Vote.<\/a> He\u2019s another one: Obama claims to represent Hispanics in this country.<\/p>\n<p>There are between 30 and 40 million Hispanics in America.  Now, let me ask a simple question.  Exactly what has Obama done for 30 to 40 million Hispanics in this country?  Has he made it easier for them to get a job?  Has Obama made it easier for Hispanics to save money?  Has Obama made it easier for Hispanics to own a home?  Has Obama made it easier for Hispanics to start a business?  My point here is that Obama\u2019s disastrous economic policies know no race or ethnicity.  Obama\u2019s economic policies are not targeted to groups.  They are hurting everybody.  There is no group that\u2019s being assisted by Obama.  Even his plans to help people, like the mortgage assistance program, none of it worked.  It was all a bureaucratic nightmare, and none of it worked. <\/p>\n<p>The Hispanic unemployment rate is 10.1%.  The nationwide unemployment rate is 8.1%.  Just what has Obama done for these 30 to 40 million Hispanics, and why do they think that Obama is their answer?  Obama\u2019s economic policies are damaging everybody, and his policies don\u2019t know if you\u2019re Hispanic, black, white, green, Martian, bisexual, trisexual, quadrisexual, they don\u2019t know who you are.  All they know is, his policies are destined to hurt everybody.  Unemployment, again, with Hispanics, 10.1%.  It\u2019s rising.  It\u2019s on the way to 11%.  Hispanics do not have some special exemption from the economic conditions Obama has unleashed on this nation. <\/p>\n<p>All of you Hispanics thinking of voting for Obama, what\u2019s he done for you?  He hasn\u2019t done anything for you.  All he\u2019s done is what he\u2019s done to everybody else, and that\u2019s damage the economy and damage economic opportunity for everybody.  And you Hispanics and you women and you blacks and every other group that Obama\u2019s talking to rather than America at large, none of you have an exemption from his disastrous policies.  None of you have a boundary or a shield around you that will protect you from his policies affecting you.  His policies affect all of us.  His policies are destroying this economy, and we don\u2019t even have half of \u2019em in place yet. <\/p>\n<p>Obamacare kicks in next year and the year after.  His tax increases kick in.  His spending continues.  We\u2019re looking at a financial collapse.  If you think that you\u2019re gonna survive on what you get from the government, there isn\u2019t gonna be anybody producing enough to be taxed enough for the government to redistribute anything.  They\u2019re gonna have to print it or continue to borrow it, but there isn\u2019t going to be any economic expansion or growth. There isn\u2019t going to be real growth in the job market.  It is not mathematically or policy-wise possible.  Not with the policies Obama\u2019s put in place. <\/p>\n<p>I would ask any of you, whether you\u2019re Hispanic or black or female or what have you, what has Obama done for you to date?  What\u2019s he done for you?  How\u2019s your life better?  It isn\u2019t.  Your life isn\u2019t any better.  He hasn\u2019t done anything for you.  But yet for some reason he\u2019s been able to convince some of you that Romney\u2019s gonna make it really hard on you.  Three and a half years of a record matters.  We have a president running for reelection who will not run on his record. His big achievement, health care.  He\u2019s trying to act like it hasn\u2019t happened.  He doesn\u2019t want you reflecting on it.  He doesn\u2019t want you realizing that rather than a $2,500 reduction in your premiums, say hello to a $3,000 increase. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_67433\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaWaronAmerica.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>He wants you realizing this after the election when there\u2019s nothing you can do about it.  After he\u2019s reelected, that\u2019s when all of this fully kicks in, 2013, 2014, when it\u2019s too late to do anything about it.  Do you wonder why he doesn\u2019t run around and tout all his great achievements?  He\u2019s got two:  <a view=\"line\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=14605\">killed Osama<\/a>, save General Motors.  Big whoop.  Nothing to write home about General Motors, sadly.  But everybody in this country, you need to ask yourself, you\u2019ve got a president who\u2019s claiming he\u2019s looking out for you, he\u2019s helping you.  Jobs councils, all these things, what has he done for you?  He hasn\u2019t done anything for you.  There is nothing that is any better, nothing that has improved since he took office.  Let me be frank about something else. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_67438\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/jessejacksoncryingeFile.jpg\"\/><BR\/>For all of this talk about Obama being the first black president, the plight of inner city children in this nation has not changed.  In fact, Obama is the single biggest obstacle to school choice and options in our cities and minority communities. He\u2019s the obstacle. He\u2019s  standing in the way of improvement for inner city kids.  It\u2019s Obama.  Race has nothing to do with it.  He\u2019s a liberal.  He\u2019s a Democrat.  His policies stink, they are not helping anybody, and they haven\u2019t helped you, and for all this talk about the first black president, what do you think black unemployment in the country is?  How\u2019s he helping you?  He isn\u2019t.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  You know what my guess is?  My sense is, if you could talk to people privately and individually in the African-American community, you would find a vast majority of \u2019em puzzled that things aren\u2019t better off for them.  I\u2019m sure they had much higher expectations than the reality they got.  You know they had to.  First black president.  You remember the first town halls.  &#8220;I want this. I want that.&#8221;  I mean, they bought into the fact that years and years and years of what they perceived as unfairness and discrimination, was gonna be fixed, was gonna be dealt with, and what had been rightfully theirs but denied them was gonna be given to them or they were gonna get it somehow. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_67436\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaLogosWhatsHeDoneForYou.jpg\"\/><BR\/>It had meaning.  First black president, it was not just something historical.  It had substantive meaning.  He hasn\u2019t done anything for anybody.  He hasn\u2019t done anything for Hispanics.  He hasn\u2019t done anything for women.  He hasn\u2019t done anything for small business. He hasn\u2019t done anything for health care. He really hasn\u2019t helped General Motors.  He gave it to the unions.  He hasn\u2019t done anything, folks.  The plight of inner city kids &#8212; by that I mean African-American school kids &#8212; hasn\u2019t changed.  Those schools are still dilapidated.  There\u2019s no change on the horizon.  In fact, it\u2019s Obama that took away school choice from any inner city parents.  Remember, when he took office there was a program in Washington where black parents could send their kids to Sidwell Friends or the equivalent.  It was Obama who stopped the program. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>He took away the opportunity from black parents to choose the schools.  It was a voucher program.  He took it away to protect the teachers unions.  Now, when emotions are put aside, when race-baiting and gender politics are put aside &#8212; and that\u2019s all Obama does, race baits, gender politics, War on Women &#8212; you put all that aside, when you look at the facts, when you look at the record, when you look at the substance of this administration the <a view=\"line\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=14532\">past 3-1\/2 years<\/a>, we have a president who has failed, majestically failed, overwhelmingly failed.  He has failed all the people of this great nation, including those he claims to champion.  He has failed everyone.  He is helping no one.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p><a view=\"full\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?page_id=37804\"><img id=\"eZObject_67431\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/000MostDangerousMan.jpg\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You know how Obama ended the voucher program in Washington?  He just defunded it, just took it out of the budget.  Took the money away from it, allocated it somewhere else.  He\u2019s not doing anything for you.  If you\u2019re African-American, if you\u2019re Hispanic, if you\u2019re female, he\u2019s not doing anything.  In fact, he\u2019s actually doing things to people.  This is not a cool, nice guy.  This is a cold, ruthless, very typical politician.  Let me ask you this, folks.  Seriously.  What exactly have you heard from Obama or from David Axelrod or from David Plouffe or anybody in the campaign, or anybody at the White House, what have you heard of Obama\u2019s policies that he will put in place the next four years that will reverse what\u2019s happened here?  What? <\/p>\n<p>What exactly are the Obama policies that he would put in place in the next four years that would reverse what he\u2019s done?  He\u2019s out there running against what has happened.  He\u2019s running against the deficit he created.  He\u2019s running against the debt.  He added $5.5 trillion to it.  He\u2019s running against all these things that happened.  <a view=\"line\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=14503\">He\u2019s out there telling the Univision <\/a>people you can\u2019t fix Washington from the inside, that\u2019s one thing he\u2019s learned.  He wants to stay inside, though.  I want you to stop and think, what exactly are the Obama policies that he would put in place in the next four years that would reverse what he\u2019s done? <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_67434\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaPoliciesMontage5.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Let me get specific.  How will Obama grow the private sector?  What have you heard him say?  Where are the announced policies that you have heard from Obama that will expand employment, that will grow the private sector?  What taxes is he planning on cutting?  There will have to be some tax cuts if there is to be economic growth.  Some of you may not like hearing that, but the truth is the truth.  Have you heard him detail what taxes he\u2019s planning on cutting?  Have you heard him detail what regulations he\u2019s going to repeal?  I want you to stop and ask yourself, what\u2019s he gonna reverse?  What have you heard him say that he is going to put in place that will change the direction of this country? <\/p>\n<p>He says he\u2019s gonna get the deficit under control.  I want to know what are the policies that are gonna do it.  Of course he\u2019s gonna get the deficit under control.  How?  For 3-1\/2 years you\u2019ve heard him say he\u2019s focused laser-like on jobs?  We keep losing \u2019em.  For 3-1\/2 years you\u2019ve heard him say we gotta get the deficit down, or we\u2019re gonna get the deficit down, we\u2019re gonna stop all this spending and the debt.  Has it done anything but continue to grow out of control? <\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m not asking you what you\u2019ve heard him say he wants to fix.  I\u2019m asking you what are exactly the policies that you have heard that he will put in place in the next four years that will reverse what he\u2019s done?  How will he reduce the deficit?  How will he reduce unemployment?  What taxes is he planning on cutting?  What regulations is he going to repeal?  All you\u2019ve heard him say is he just needs more time.  More time for what?  Oh.  The policies that he\u2019s put in place to work just need more time.  Really? We\u2019re trending in the right direction.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Fifty-five percent of small business owners would not start a company today.&#8221;  This is from the Washington Examiner.  &#8220;Fifty-five percent of small business owners would not start a company today.&#8221;  They blame Obama and his policies.  Just last week we heard, because of Census Bureau data, that more people are moving, that the economy, we\u2019re in a recovery now.  But every day that there are new government statistics, there is no recovery.  He wants more time, fine.  But I want you to seriously consider, he wants more time for his current policies to work.  If they haven\u2019t worked in 3-1\/2 years, why will they work next year or the year after?  If the stimulus of 2009 has not created jobs, and if he has admitted since that there really weren\u2019t any shovel-ready jobs, then what, pray tell, will another two years accomplish with the same policies? <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_67442\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaRomneyJobs.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re gonna have more green jobs and renewable energy, huh?  How\u2019s that been working out now?  Every solar company that he\u2019s gone into business with has gone into bankruptcy after making sure that some of the money that he gave them has been sent back to him in the form of campaign contributions.  My point here, there are no fiscal policies that Barack Obama\u2019s gonna pursue that will result in more credit being available to future entrepreneurs.  He has not got one single policy that he has announced or that he believes in that will reduce the size of the federal government, that will reduce the size of the debt. <\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s not one Obama policy that is going to reload the private sector with capital, make it available to entrepreneurs and individuals to grow businesses and to hire people.  His policies are gonna continue to take money from people, transfer it to government, where he will redistribute it to people for the express purpose of getting their vote, not for economic growth.  My point is that there are no Obama policies that he will put in place the next four years that will reverse what he has done.  And he\u2019s admitted it.  He doesn\u2019t have it.  He\u2019s sticking with what he\u2019s done.  Needs more time.  What will Obama do to help American companies compete with foreign companies?  Will he lower the corporate income tax rate?  It\u2019s the highest in the world in this country at 35%.  If he\u2019s not going to do that, how does he expect to create jobs and prevent what he calls outsourcing? <\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m just asking.  These are legitimate policy questions based on the record of a man who\u2019s been in office for 3-1\/2 years and has been very active in implementing the policies he believes in.  But none of these policies grow the private sector.  None of these policies create wealth.  None of these policies expand the opportunity for people to create wealth.  And I don\u2019t mean get rich.  I mean hire people for growing businesses.  What policies will Barack Obama put in place to lower the prices of electricity, gasoline, and oil?  That affects everybody\u2019s pocketbooks and wallet. <\/p>\n<p>The price of a gallon of gasoline has gone from $1.85 to just under $4 during his presidency. This is a man who has said that electricity rates &#8220;will necessarily skyrocket&#8221; as he takes the coal industry offline and replaces it with all this newfangled green energy. The point is that Barack Obama does not have a single policy that will lower the price of electricity, that will lower the price of gasoline, that will lower the price of oil.<\/p>\n<p>That affects everybody\u2019s pocketbook. He does not have one policy that will reduce the cost of energy. He doesn\u2019t have one policy that will expand the amount of energy that we have. In fact, his policies do just the opposite. Now, I\u2019m asking these questions. These are real questions, and they matter, and the answers have real consequences for everybody. We have a man campaigning on the notion that the first 200 years of this country were unfair and unjust and he\u2019s here to fix it.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_67443\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaGolfing.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>And while he puts his &#8220;fixes&#8221; in place, everything is being broken, destroyed, ruined. I see in the CBS poll that people in Ohio think Obama\u2019s better suited to run the economy than Romney. I want to know on what basis? On every question I have just asked, somebody name for me one Obama policy that improves anything in our economy, and you can\u2019t. In fact, as far as his second term is concerned, Obama hasn\u2019t even announced a policy for anything.<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s just said (paraphrased), &#8220;I need more time for my brilliant plans of the first term to finally take root and take hold.&#8221; That will just prolong and expand the current crisis. How will Obama improve the housing market? You know when January 1st comes, massive tax increases hit. Income tax increases. Business tax increases. The capital gains tax rate is going to go up.<\/p>\n<p>When people have less income and are giving more of their income to the government, they have less to spend to buy homes. They have less to spend on their kids, families, or what have you. I\u2019m asking, in a pure policy sense here, can anybody tell me&#8230;? I\u2019m asking specifically. I know there are people in this audience that support the president and you want to vote for him. I\u2019m just trying to understand why.<\/p>\n<p>Throw out the fact that he\u2019s historical, the first black president. Throw out the fact that he\u2019s a Democrat and you have party loyalty. Where is the improvement in your life? Where are the examples of things this man has done for you? He has set himself up as a man who\u2019s gonna do things for people. Where are they? How has life in America improved in the last three years, and what have you heard from him that\u2019s going to make it get even better?<\/p>\n<p>What about health care?<\/p>\n<p>Obama and Obamacare, he said, will reduce the price of insurance premiums. He said insurance premiums will go down $2500. As soon as Obamacare became law, have you noticed the cost of health insurance premiums is skyrocketing? Because of Obamacare! In other words, pretty much everything he said about Obamacare has turned out to be 180 degrees out of phase, untrue, totally untrue. He has lied, folks. He has lied to us for 3-1\/2 years.<\/p>\n<p>He brazenly continues to lie that you &#8220;get to keep&#8221; your doctor and your insurance plan that you have now if you like it. You will not be able to. &#8220;Yep! You\u2019ll be able to keep your private policy because of Obamacare.&#8221; No. It\u2019s because of Obamacare you\u2019re going to lose your private policy! It\u2019s because of Obamacare you\u2019re gonna lose the doctor you\u2019ve got. It\u2019s Obamacare that brings the changes that affect you in such ways as losing the doctor and plan that you have.<\/p>\n<p>If Obama didn\u2019t do anything, if there was no Obamacare, you wouldn\u2019t be losing your doctor or your plan. But what of health care? Obama said that Obamacare would reduce the price of premiums, cost of premiums, and your health care would improve. But millions of you are gonna lose your current health care coverage. What are you gonna do? Are you gonna join government exchange program?<\/p>\n<p>If you don\u2019t do that, you\u2019ll be fined by the federal government. Obama\u2019s not gonna fix any of this, folks. He\u2019s the cause of it. He\u2019s not fixing anything! He\u2019s making things go wrong. He\u2019s the cause of what\u2019s going wrong. Millions of you are gonna lose your health care coverage. What are you gonna do? You\u2019re gonna be fined if you don\u2019t go out and join an exchange.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I have to ask these questions, because none of this &#8212; none of this mess that we\u2019re in &#8212; is in any way going to be fixed. There\u2019s not one policy that\u2019s been announced, there\u2019s not one policy in this man\u2019s mind that will fix what he has caused to break. He\u2019s not doing anything for you.<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t care if you\u2019re female, Hispanic, black, African-American, Asian. Whatever you are, life hasn\u2019t changed. The only person looking out for you is you. And if you\u2019re not doing it, believe me, he\u2019s not. He wants you to think so, but he\u2019s not. He can\u2019t! Nobody can do for you what you can do for yourself. It\u2019s not possible. Now, Obama\u2019s out there posing &#8212; and I mean &#8220;posing&#8221; &#8212; as the leader of the middle class, the guy who cares about working people, the voice of women and minorities.<\/p>\n<p>But when you implement policies and laws that drag down a country and make it poorer &#8212; that destroy enterprises, incomes, jobs, opportunities &#8212; you don\u2019t represent any of the people in this country regardless who they are. None of us, folks, are being represented. None of us are being looked out for. We are all fighting what\u2019s coming out of this government. This government is an obstacle now.<\/p>\n<p>This government is in people\u2019s way &#8212; and this is what needs to be understood, from street to street, community to community. The middle class is not being represented. The 1% is not being represented. Nobody is! The only people being looked out for are the people that donate money to Obama. He does take care of them. Which, he\u2019s not alone. That\u2019s politics. But seriously, Obama the leader of the middle class? What\u2019s he done for you?<\/p>\n<p>Where are all the jobs?
