<\/p>\nRUSH: We\u2019ll start in Chatham, New Jersey, with Greg. And I\u2019m really glad you waited, sir. Welcome to the EIB Network. Hi.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Hey, it\u2019s my honor to wait for you any time, Rush.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Thank you very much, sir. I understand that totally.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Rush, I want to preface my comments that are on the board there with a quick story. Thank you for coming to the defense of the Constitution and the NRA. I myself this weekend got into a heated Facebook discussion with two of my friends that I\u2019ve known since high school. They immediately started to trash the NRA and blame the Constitution for the ills of America. I came to the defense of both of those, and they both defriended me, and one of them is actually a graduate of Princeton University, so —<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
RUSH: Well, look, you\u2019re dealing with people who are pseudo-smart. They think they\u2019re smarter than you, smarter than everybody else. They actually defriended you over this? See, Snerdley\u2019s in there, I must tell you, Snerdley\u2019s a little nervous today \u2019cause he thinks that I\u2019m blaming movies for this Aurora thing. And I\u2019m not. I got people out there attacking my Constitution and blaming it. And I\u2019m not gonna sit here on my sizeable tush and just sit here and take it.<\/p>\n
CALLER: I\u2019m on your side, Rush.<\/p>\n
RUSH: I\u2019m gonna push back. The Constitution did not make this thing happen out there. Some demented wacko kid did for reasons that we may never fully understand.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Exactly, Rush. And we\u2019re not gonna stand for anybody putting the blame on the Constitution or the NRA. Now I want to get to my main comment before Snerdley gets more nervous. It\u2019s interesting that there\u2019s something inherently wrong with liberals, including Obama, where they have to emotionally inject themselves into tragedies like this. And I\u2019m referring to Obama\u2019s comments, which I heard him make twice since Friday about his daughters, Sasha and Malia, going to the movies when everyone knows that if Sasha and Malia went to the movies, they would be protected by the Secret Service. And yet he has to inject himself —<\/p>\n
RUSH: Yeah, you know, I wasn\u2019t sure about this. Well, the source for me on this is solid. This guy sends me a note, and, remember, now, I\u2019m out playing golf on Friday, interment rain and so forth, and you\u2019re not allowed cell phones out there, so I\u2019m coming late to all this. At the end of the day on Friday I\u2019m checking voluminous amounts e-mail and I get a note from a guy who said, “You wouldn\u2019t believe, why does Obama do this? He had to say, ‘My daughters go to the movies, what if they had been in that theater?'” And I looked at that, did he really say that? If I had a son, he would look just like Trayvon Martin. My two daughters go to the movies. What if they had been there, as though, what are we to conclude? That his two daughters are more important than people that were in that theater? (interruption) What, that\u2019s not what he meant? What the hell did he mean? Wait a second. No, no, no. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Look, I\u2019m mayor of Realville. I deal in the literal. First off, did he say, “My two daughters go to the movies, what if they had been in that theater that night?” Did he say, “I wonder if”? Even if he said, “I wonder if my two daughters had been,” trying to relate to average, ordinary peons just as they might be asking, “Gee, what if my daughters had been there?” Well, without those daughters, would he have a different reaction? What\u2019s the deal here? If his daughters weren\u2019t there, would he have a different reaction? If Trayvon Martin hadn\u2019t been black, would he have had a different reaction to a son that he didn\u2019t have looking like Trayvon Martin? When I read that, when I read that note, I thought, well, this is very typical, this is an egomaniac who really thinks that the people of this country think he is more important than any other human being alive in this country. <\/p>\n
And then I said, can he only relate to this through his own flesh and blood? Can he not relate to this with simply the loss that people in that theater have experienced? Folks, I don\u2019t know about you. When I first heard about this, and I don\u2019t have kids, so I didn\u2019t think, “Well, what if my kids had been there?” But I also didn\u2019t think, “Gee, what if my brother had been there? What if my nieces had been?” I\u2019ve got nieces and nephews, I did not think, “Gee, what if they\u2019d been in there?” It wasn\u2019t about me, I guess is my point. Why does everything have to be about this guy, and why does he have to turn everything of noteworthy consequence in this country around so that it\u2019s about him? “My daughters go to the movies. What if Malia and Sasha had been at the theater, as so many of our kids are each day? Michelle and I will be fortunate to hug our kids.” I don\u2019t know. I just don\u2019t know how many people made this about them. That\u2019s my only point. Anyway, Greg, I\u2019m glad you called.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
