Such BS. This is this morning\u2019s White House press briefing. Let\u2019s just get started. This is &#8212; yep &#8212; responding to the <a view=\"line\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=14552\">Romney video<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>CARNEY: (haltingly) When he made the decision, against the advice of many, to take action to save the auto industry, the president did not ask whether the 1.1 million Americans whose jobs would be saved had voted for him or against him. When he pressed for 18 small business tax cuts, he didn\u2019t ask if &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Stop the tape.  Stop.  I\u2019m bored.  I\u2019m bored.  I\u2019ll fall asleep.  Can\u2019t afford it.  Let\u2019s move on to sound bite 28.  This is the media now asking Carney about Obama\u2019s bitter clingers comment.  No, it\u2019s bull.  I\u2019ve already addressed it.  I\u2019ve addressed it every day since Obama was elected.  Everybody listening here knows that that\u2019s flat-out bull&#8230; crap.  It bored me.  Little kid just rant and raving.  There\u2019s not even any energy in what he\u2019s saying.  I can\u2019t afford people getting bored here.  So now, an unidentified reporter says to Carney, &#8220;The president\u2019s also had his fair share of this stuff, you know, the bitter clinger comment and so forth.  How\u2019s Romney comment any different from what the president said?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"585\" height=\"315\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qkP_C8tECPQ?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>CARNEY:  I think that happened four years ago and was discussed in abundance at the time.  What the president said four years ago, what he said eight years ago, what he says today, and what he said ever since he took office here is that he\u2019s fighting for every American.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  That\u2019s crap, too.<\/p>\n<p>CARNEY:  That he firmly believes as a nation we\u2019re all in this together &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Not fighting for.  Fighting against every American.<\/p>\n<p>CARNEY:  &#8212; and what unites us is far stronger and greater than what divides us.  We\u2019re not &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  This is such pap.<\/p>\n<p>CARNEY:  &#8212; red America and blue America.  We\u2019re the United States of America.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Right.  Jay, you had a pap smear yet?  You need one.  Okay?  They wouldn\u2019t let the question go. &#8220;If the President can make a comment like he did in 2008, where he made a remark in direct relation to a large portion of the electorate, and Mitt Romney makes a similar remark also offending&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>CARNEY:  Then-Senator Obama never said that he did not worry about or would not worry about 47% of the population.  A lot of folks when we travel around the country ask why &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  That\u2019s right.  He was targeting \u2019em.<\/p>\n<p>CARNEY:  &#8212; the president is campaigning on a bus in towns and communities and counties that trend red or Republican.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  He hates the bitter clingers, Carney.  You know it and I know it.  He resents the bitter clingers.  He wants to punish \u2019em.<\/p>\n<p>CARNEY:  Why is he there if he\u2019s not likely to win the county?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  You see, isn\u2019t it more interesting to hear me tell you what Carney\u2019s saying than to listen to him say it himself?<\/p>\n<p>CARNEY:  Because he\u2019s there to take his message about his economic vision and his agenda for the country to everybody, because he firmly believes that, you know, building this country up helps everybody. <\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  What a crock.<\/p>\n<p>CARNEY:  That\u2019s the essence of his governing philosophy and it\u2019s at the core of who he is<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Who\u2019s he lifted up, outside of Jeffrey Immelt, the Solyndra guys, who\u2019s he lifted up?  Tell me.  Give me a name.  I want to meet the guy.  Who\u2019s Obama lifted up?  Outside the regime.  Give me a name.  Okay, let\u2019s see, one more of these.  Darn it, I was hoping that was it.  But there\u2019s one more.  Another reporter having an exchange here about Obama\u2019s bitter clinger comment.  I mean, the media, they\u2019re kind of ragging Jay about this.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_67083\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/CarneyBitterClingerComments.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>REPORTER:  Is now the time to bring up your April 14 column from 2008 when you said the president\u00c2\u2019s words were &#8220;poorly chosen,&#8221; on the &#8220;guns and bitter?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>CARNEY:  Uh, I didn\u00c2\u2019t &#8211; I don\u00c2\u2019t remember that column but the&#8230; (laughter) I honestly don\u00c2\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>REPORTER:  I can read the whole thing for you if you want. <\/p>\n<p>CARNEY:  Look, I think the president, the then-candidate addressed this at the time. <\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Stop the tape. I\u2019m tired of propaganda.  Here\u2019s what the reporter\u2019s talking about.  April 15th, 2008, PMSNBC, Race for the White House, with David Gregory, there\u2019s a discussion about Obama running against Hillary, and at the time Jay Carney was the Washington bureau chief of TIME Magazine and he\u2019s on this show.  David Gregory says, &#8220;Let me go ahead and move on. Finally from Reverend Wright to what\u2019s called Bitter Gate. These two damaging controversies have raised direct questions about Barack Obama\u2019s electability in the fall. The third question tonight, what will it take to convince super delegates that Obama\u2019s problems are real? Jay, this is going to come up in the debate tomorrow night. This is the strategy now that Hillary Clinton is pursuing.&#8221; What about this bitter clinger stuff, Jay?<\/p>\n<p>CARNEY:  Well, it is.  Look, he\u2019s got problems, and he\u2019s exposed a huge weakness in this past week with his comments about small town Pennsylvanians \u2019cause it reinforces a perception that he\u2019s urban and urbane but not particularly well connected to small-town America, working-class Americans, and you can &#8212; you know, this is not a deal killer, and if Hillary Clinton does not win Pennsylvania going away, I think it\u2019s put to rest for a while, but it will come back and it will come back fiercely in the fall election.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  So back in 2008 when he was a Democrat with a byline instead of the press secretary, he said that Obama\u2019s bitter clinger comment was not good, he\u2019s got a problem, and a reporter asked him about it.  He said, &#8220;Is it time to bring up your April 14th column from 2008 when you said Obama\u2019s words were poorly chosen?&#8221;  And Carney said, &#8220;I don\u2019t remember that column.&#8221;  So, I mean, it\u2019s just a revolving door.  In 2008, he\u2019s the bureau chief for TIME Magazine, supposedly a journalist to tell us what we don\u2019t know is going on.  He\u2019s just a Democrat with a byline in 2008, and he got a promotion. <\/p>\n<p>Once Obama won, he became Biden\u2019s press secretary, and then they eventually figured out &#8212; two things happened.  Gibbs got fed up, Robert Gibbs, and wanted to move on to the private sector and make some money while he had time. They needed a replacement for Gibbs.  They figured Carney had really paid his dues, having worked for Biden a couple years, so they promoted him to be the press secretary for Obama.  And when this is done, he\u2019s gonna be back at TIME Magazine or some so-called journalism outfit ostensibly being an objective journalist or a bureau chief or whatever again.  And they all do this with a straight face, thinking nobody notices.  They\u2019re just clean and pure as the wind-driven snow, purely objective, when it\u2019s all a game, folks, it\u2019s all a game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Here\u2019s Jay Carney.
