RUSH: Folks, look, in the midst of all this political tension, it\u2019s time for a little break. We need to take a break, just for a moment here. You remember back (it wasn\u2019t that long ago) when we at Two If By Tea…? It remains the absolute best-tasting iced tea in this country. We had people make their own Two If By Tea commercials, YouTube-type videos, that were put together by you in the audience. We did this last year.<\/p>\n

There were people in New Hampshire that dressed up in colonial gear and did a Two If By Tea rap. Some of the videos that we got, we were jazzed by them. The creativity and the passion and the ambition that was in these videos was a clear indication of just who the people in this country really still are. There are a bunch of people with creativity and ambition just waiting to be turned loose and unleashed, and it was really fun.<\/p>\n

<\/a>We did it just to see what we would get.<\/p>\n

I mean, it\u2019s a startup. We\u2019re looking for people to do commercials for us for free. I was walking around asking people, “Do you believe in free speech?” “Oh, yeah!” “Well, fine. I have a commercial for my tea company I\u2019d like you to do at no charge.” “What are you talking about?” “Well, you said you believe in free speech.” No, I\u2019m just having fun. We really just wanted to see what we would get, and we were bowled over with the amount of effort that people put into — and the creativity, and the production values that people put into — creating these videos.<\/p>\n

So what we\u2019ve done is we\u2019ve decided to combine that creativity with another phenomena that happens with Two If By Tea. Have you ever covered the label of bottle? You\u2019ve been with some liberals, and they\u2019re ripping me or they don\u2019t like me, and you know it. Maybe my name has come up and you just know they don\u2019t like me. You\u2019ve got the tea and you somehow want them to taste it \u2019cause it\u2019s the best tea around. You want to hear them say that they love the tea and you can\u2019t wait to show \u2019em the label.<\/p>\n

You can\u2019t wait to show them whose tea it is: El Rushbo\u2019s.<\/p>\n

Well, you do that. We got notes from people all the time that this happens. We get e-mails. People go to the Two If By Tea website and tell us these stories. So what we\u2019re gonna do is combine that now into a YouTube contest for Two If By Tea. You can check it all out at the website. It\u2019s on the home page at TwoIfByTea.com. The YouTube contest is called “You\u2019ve Been Limbaugh\u2019d.” We actually created a name for this.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a takeoff on, “You\u2019ve been punk\u2019d,” and all the details are there. All the requirements that you have to have to be eligible for one of your commercials to be judged in the final cut-down as to which ones have a chance at winning. We\u2019re looking for humor. If you want to do something serious, stately, patriotic, historical, you can, but there are requirements.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll see how many times you\u2019ve gotta say Two If By Tea, Limbaugh\u2019d,<\/a> all that kind of thing. There are requirements that you have to meet. I think we\u2019re doing a 60-second time limit on these things. Folks, it might seem tough to say all you want to say in 60 seconds, but don\u2019t forget Shakespeare: “Brevity is the soul of wit.” Any artist will tell you that what makes his work great is what you take out of it when you think there\u2019s no more you can take out of it. It\u2019s the continued editing.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t be daunted by the 60-seconds. Sixty seconds is plenty of time. In fact, the more you say and the more punch you put in it, the more punch it\u2019ll have in 60 seconds. All the details, all of the rules, are explained right there on the home page at TwoIfByTea.com. We can\u2019t guarantee that you won\u2019t be arrested by the government for what you produce, though. We would like to be able to guarantee that you won\u2019t be arrested.<\/p>\n

But given what happened to the video guy out in California, I can\u2019t guarantee it. (laughing) So remember: You\u2019re producing your own video here at your own risk. (laughing) Can you just see it: A Two If By Tea, You\u2019ve Been Limbaugh\u2019d video being blamed for something by Obama? We\u2019re not gonna be responsible for any violence that your video causes. We\u2019re not gonna apologize, either. If your video that you\u2019ve produced for You\u2019ve Been Limbaugh\u2019d for Two If By Tea causes violence, you are swimming alone!<\/p>\n

You are on your own.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re not apologizing for you to anybody anywhere.<\/p>\n

So just go to the Two If By Tea website<\/a>. It\u2019s all there, and all the rules are explained, and the prizes and so forth. We\u2019re still working on that, but we\u2019re close.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
