But Obama knows that.  And he knows if he gives us a 5\u00c2\u00a2 KW; a $1.50-a-gallon gas; a decent, decent way of bringing natural gas to our trucks; he knows he\u2019s finished.  He knows their party is finished.  There will be no need for food stamps.  There will be no need for tax reform.  We don\u2019t need anything, Rush, other than affordable energy.  What is wrong with the electorate?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  No, I don\u2019t think the electorate\u2019s clueless. No, no, no.  Don\u2019t be dumping on the electorate.  I think the electorate is a little bit more clued in than we all thought.  It\u2019s an interesting theory that you have, however, Michael.  Thanks much for the call.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Now, what our last caller, Michael, was saying is an interesting point.  Obama&#8230; Think of this, now.  Obama knows that if he could get gasoline to $2.50 or kilowatt energy at 5\u00c2\u00a2, he\u2019d be reelected in a slam-dunk.  What\u2019s Obama doing?  President Obama\u2019s out there saying, &#8220;I can\u2019t do anything about it. There\u2019s nothing we can do.&#8221;  Isn\u2019t that a striking contrast, by the way, from when George W. Bush was president, when a president could do anything? You had John Kerry demanding he go talk to the Saudis, &#8220;jawbone&#8221; them down to $75 a barely, whatever.  &#8220;Bush coulda done it! He coulda done it! But he didn\u2019t want the oil price down,&#8221; Obama and all the other Democrats said. &#8220;They don\u2019t want the oil price down. No, no, no. Because Cheney\u2019s with Halliburton and all those guys are making big money off Big Oil.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaOilPresserGasPrices.jpg\"\/><BR\/>This is their constant lying and impugning of the intentions and the character of Republicans. Now Obama says, &#8220;I can\u2019t do anything about it.  There\u2019s nothing a president can do,&#8221; which is the true statement.  But what Michael was saying is if Obama could get gas down to a buck-and-a-half or $2.50, or the price of energy (a kilowatt-hour or electricity down), if he could find a cheap way to get natural gas into automobiles and trucks, he would be reelected in a landslide. And he will not do it.  Why?  Because that empowers the free market.  That empowers the private sector.  Don\u2019t doubt me on this, because Michael\u2019s point was when gasoline costs $5 a gallon, more people need food stamps.  When gasoline costs $6 a gallon, even more people need food stamps, and who\u2019s right there offering them?  Obama.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>In fact, who is advertising for new food stamp users?  The regime.  The Obama administration is actively seeking new food stamp users, because what Obama wants is a big government that he controls.  When gasoline gets cheap, you have more freedom. You have less need for government. You\u2019re able to take care of more things yourself. That\u2019s not what Obama wants.  That\u2019s Michael\u2019s point when he asks, &#8220;Where\u2019s the electorate? Why don\u2019t they see this?&#8221;  I think they do.  I think the electorate sees much more than we give them credit for. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Last night in Orlando, Florida, WFTV Eyeball News, the anchor Greg Warmoth interviewed Obama. He said, &#8220;Your opponents say that they can get gas prices down to two dollar, $1.50 range. What do you think Americans should be okay with gasoline price-wise?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>OBAMA: Well, first of all, nobody believes that. They know they\u2019re, you know, that\u2019s just politics. Our oil production right now is higher than at any time in the last eight years. We\u2019ve seen more new rigs go up. We\u2019re opening up millions of acres to oil exploration, and so the issue here is not that we\u2019re not drilling enough. The problem is we only have 2% of the world\u2019s oil reserves and we use 20% of the world\u2019s oil. Obviously what we want to do is to get gas prices as low as we can, as quickly as we can, but the most important thing in order to do that is to reduce our demand on oil.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I\u2019ll tell you, this is so convoluted. You just heard utter incompetence on parade. You just heard utter lack of qualification for the job. That answer alone. I don\u2019t care what the question was. Of course he\u2019s not gonna say what Americans ought to pay for gas. First he starts out bragging &#8212; by the way, he\u2019s lying &#8212; bragging about all the new oil that\u2019s been discovered, all this oil production. He doesn\u2019t like that, though. Here he is bragging about all this oil production going on, then he says the important thing is to reduce our demand on oil; the important thing is green energy. And then this convoluted 2% of the world\u2019s oil reserves, 20% of the world\u2019s oil, we are guilty, we\u2019re thieves, we\u2019re selfish. We ought not be stealing that much of the world\u2019s oil. We\u2019ve gotta reduce it.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_60293\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/Obama-side-by-side.jpg\"\/><BR\/>This answer, my friends, is utter incompetence. Now, some political strategerists might think it\u2019s brilliant. I\u2019m telling you in the real world where people listen to the words other people say, that is senseless. There is irritation in this answer. There anger in this answer. There are outright contradictions. Our oil production right now is higher than any time &#8212; he\u2019s bragging about it and then he ends up saying we gotta stop that. And it isn\u2019t true, by the way. Whatever oil production is taking place is happening in spite of him. He\u2019s the one who\u2019s not allowing drilling in any new places. He\u2019s the one that has a moratorium on drilling in the Gulf. He\u2019s the one who will not okay the Keystone pipeline. He\u2019s the one seeing to it that we have as little oil production as possible.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>But it\u2019s an election year, and he knows that you know enough to realize that more oil equals more supply equals cheaper prices for gasoline. But this is embarrassing, is what this is. To brag about all this production going on, and then to finish 30 seconds later by criticizing it, by ripping it to shreds. On the one hand, he beats his chest, what a great accomplishment it is, and then stabs himself in the back. He reaches around and stabs his own self in the back by suggesting it isn\u2019t good. Now, what kind of mind does this? What kind of mind takes credit for something that you hate and you end up criticizing what you\u2019re taking credit for in the same 30-second sound bite? Who in the world can do that? Last night in Des Moines, WHO-TV, Eyeball 13 news, Obama talking about gas prices.<\/p>\n<p>OBAMA: I think the American people understand that, you know, we don\u2019t have a silver bullet when it comes to gas prices, but they\u2019re hurting right now. You know, it\u2019s like a tax on your paycheck every time you fill up. And so what I\u2019ve instructed my team to do, we\u2019re looking at every single thing we can do from relieving bottlenecks to try to see if we can impact internationally how the oil markets are operating. Ultimately, though, the single most important thing we can do is reduce our dependence on foreign oil, and the fact that we\u2019ve reduced our dependence by about a million barrels a day, that over time is gonna have a big impact.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Doesn\u2019t mean diddly-squat. Let\u2019s say that we have reduced our dependence. Doesn\u2019t mean we\u2019ve reduced our usage. The two are not the same thing. This is embarrassing. Whatever happened to giving everybody a tire gauge and make sure your tires are properly inflated as a way of conserving gasoline and dealing with the high gas price? He said that in 2008. Why isn\u2019t that still used? No, he did, folks, don\u2019t doubt me. Obama said, it might have been 2009, I don\u2019t know when, 2007, 2008, a tire gauge, properly inflated tires, that\u2019s how you deal with high gas prices.<\/p>\n<p>Another thing. Remember, now, I live in Realville. I\u2019m the mayor. &#8220;Ultimately, though, the single most important thing we can do is reduce our dependence on foreign oil.&#8221; Will somebody tell me two things: How do you reduce dependence on foreign oil when this president will not allow drilling anywhere new? Can\u2019t drill in ANWR in Alaska, cannot drill in the Gulf, cannot go get other supplies, cannot do the Keystone pipeline. How in the hell do we reduce our dependence when we cannot increase our own production because of him? The second question is, &#8220;the single most important thing we can do is reduce our dependence on foreign oil.&#8221; Would somebody explain to me how that\u2019s gonna get gasoline prices down next week or next month? What does it have to do with anything? Nothing, is the answer. Reducing our dependence does not mean we are reducing our usage.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, I\u2019m gonna use his own words as proof he doesn\u2019t know what he\u2019s talking about. He\u2019s bragging here that we have reduced our dependence by a million barrels a day. How come the price isn\u2019t going down? The president here just said that the way to get the price down, the most important thing we can do is reduce our dependence. Then he says we\u2019ve done good on that. We\u2019ve reduced our dependence by a million barrels. Why is the price going up, Mr. President? Gas usage is way down. How has it lowered the price of gasoline? Dependence is way down, million barrels a day. How come the price is going up? You just said the single most important thing we can do is reduce our dependence on foreign oil, and that\u2019s gonna get the gas price down. How? Oh, my. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_60303\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaOil.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH: Now, on this oil drilling, I\u2019ve gotta straighten some things out here. None of the current drilling for oil Obama was bragging about in that audio clip is due to him. All of the federal permits that have resulted in increased oil production are from President Bush. Obama has issued none. The rest of the drilling is taking place on private land that the federal government and Obama cannot stop. Folks, he has not been responsible for any new oil production at all. For example, during the Bush administration, more than 41,700 drilling permits were approved on federal lands, and it worked. The price of gasoline went down, and the Democrats in Congress fought Bush tooth and nail on this.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>Now, according to the Heritage Foundation, oil and gas production on federal lands under Obama is down by more than 40% compared to the ten years ago. He\u2019s lying. There\u2019s no other word for it. He\u2019s lying. He\u2019s taking credit for increased oil production he\u2019s got nothing to do with. It\u2019s happening on private land that he can\u2019t stop, and he would stop it if he could. Production of oil and gas on federal lands under Obama is down by more than 40%, compared to ten years ago. 2010 had the lowest number of onshore leases issued since 1984, and the Obama regime held only one offshore lease sale in 2011.<\/p>\n<p>Now, we\u2019ve got breaking news from the AP. And I\u2019m gonna have to deal with this. &#8220;Federal Reserve Notes Better Economy After Seeing Strong Job Gains, Leaves Policy Unchanged.&#8221; Really? The Fed notes better economy after strong job gains. See, we talked about this at the beginning of the program. That\u2019s the problem, folks. Where is the economic growth with all these new jobs?<\/p>\n<p>Jon Hilsenrath, the Wall Street Journal, &#8220;Piecing Together the Job-Picture Puzzle &#8212; Something about the U.S. economy isn\u2019t adding up,&#8221; is how this thing starts out. Even the Wall Street Journal is befuddled. &#8220;At 8.3%, the unemployment rate has fallen 0.7 percentage point from a year earlier and is down 1.7 percentage points from a peak of 10% in October 2009. &#8230; the number of people filing claims for government unemployment benefits has fallen. Yet the economy is barely growing. Many economists in the past few weeks have again reduced their estimates of growth. The economy by many estimates is on track to grow at an annual rate of less than 2% in the first three months of 2012. The economy expanded just 1.7% last year.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The ChiCom economy is growing at 9%, by the way. &#8220;And since the final months of 2009, when unemployment peaked, the economy has expanded at a pretty paltry 2.5% annual rate. How can an economy that is growing so slowly produce such big declines in unemployment?&#8221; Now, in this stack I have three news stories, three pieces so far that indicate that there is something not right here or very odd in the economic numbers, the job numbers. The people with skin in the game who own businesses, employ people, invest in the private sector say, &#8220;Wait a minute, there\u2019s no growth, where are all these jobs coming from?&#8221; Folks, we\u2019re down two million jobs in the universe of jobs since Obama was elected. There is no job growth. That\u2019s the myth.<\/p>\n<p>Everybody is believing that there\u2019s job growth. Yeah, job growth from what baseline? Job growth from Obama\u2019s peak of unemployment? Maybe. But job growth from a baseline of zero? No! We\u2019re still in a huge net loss of jobs, over two million. That\u2019s why there\u2019s no economic growth, because these job numbers are incomplete, misleading, statistically stacked against reality. It\u2019s not hard to understand. It may take guts to say it. It may take courage to point out the truth about the jobs numbers. But it is what it is. There isn\u2019t job growth and anybody who understands basic math knows this.<\/p>\n<p>Okay. I promised. He-he-he. It\u2019s time to fulfill. Back to the phones. Placerville, California. Hi, Gail. Thanks so much for waiting, and hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hi, Rush. My point is about energy. But before I get started, I wanted to tell you, you are God\u2019s gift to women, you and my wonderful husband, Ron.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Thank you. Thank you very much.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Thanks. Well, regarding energy, it\u2019s dawned on me that the Democrats want us to depend on solar, wind, water, and biofuel. But at the same time they\u2019re telling us that global warming can cause global cooling, and that drastic climate change is coming. So if all of that is true, well, the earth has always had an ongoing history of climate change, the Democrats have an energy policy pushing us to depend on the energy that depends on the climate, and the climate is changing. You can end up with solar panels where it starts to continually snow. Wind turbines where the wind diminishes. You can have biofuels where you can\u2019t grow crops, and hydroelectric where there\u2019s nothing but drought. So they can\u2019t really have it both ways, but with oil, natural gas, and nuclear, you don\u2019t have that problem.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_60304\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/Rush-backpage.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH: Right. What you have just rather brilliantly and eloquently illustrated is the abject failure of a command-and-control economy by smart elites who haven\u2019t one day\u2019s experience in the private sector. Folks, if you\u2019re new to the program, something else you need to know. There\u2019s nobody in the Obama administration, none of his czars, none of his advisers, who\u2019ve ever really run a business or created jobs. They don\u2019t know what they\u2019re talking about. There are people that hang around the faculty lounge at their universities and theorize all day about how perfect they could make life if only they, the smartest people in the world, were in charge of it. Only they could make everybody happy, everybody equal, everything fair. No discrimination. And they theorize on all this, how to make it happen.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>They don\u2019t realize the weather is changeable. They don\u2019t realize that the wind may stop blowing. They don\u2019t realize the clouds may cover the sun someday. They also don\u2019t realize that none of that stuff is practical anyway. As I say, until you can get a jet plane off the ground with these alternative fuels, don\u2019t talk to me. It\u2019s an utter waste of discussion. Now, there may be an alternative fuel down the pike someday that does all this, and if there is, I\u2019m very confident suggesting that some bright entrepreneur in some basement in the private sector is going to invent it and not because some president demands that he do it, or not because some president throws money at him. He\u2019s gonna do it because he\u2019s passionate, creative, brilliant, and has freedom.<\/p>\n<p>Obama talks about natural gas. Do you realize, folks, that you only get natural gas when you drill for oil? Or, better stated, you have to drill for natural gas. Natural gas is a fossil fuel. Obama talks about it as though it\u2019s some brilliant, clean, revolutionary new fuel. But you gotta drill to get it. It\u2019s down there in pockets in the rock, in the shale. It\u2019s hidden down there. And most often natural gas is found in oil fields. Ahem. Just is.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Ken in Cleveland.  Welcome, sir, to the EIB Network.  Hi.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Professor Limbaugh!<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Sir!<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Hey, two quick points.  I hope that gasoline prices go up to $6 a gallon by November, and I think that would put the nail in the coffin to prevent Obama from being elected.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  That\u2019s possible.  It\u2019s possible.  I understand your thinking on this.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Okay.  The second comment I have is on Obama wants Catholic churches and hospitals to provide contraceptives? Where is the separation of church and state on this issue?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, that\u2019s the point.  To Obama, it doesn\u2019t exist.  That\u2019s why the whole point is!  Obama mandating the churches provide these things violates the First Amendment, the so-called separation of church and state. But it\u2019s religious freedom that we\u2019re talking about here.  That\u2019s the whole point.  That\u2019s what the Sandra Fluke testimony was all about was to take the focus off of Obama violating the Constitution and shift it into a war on women by the Republicans, by somehow denying women their birth control pills.  That\u2019s not at all what this was about.  The real congressional hearing (the one that Fluke was not allowed to testify at because she\u2019s not an expert) was about Obama\u2019s violating the Constitution by mandating churches provide these things or insurance companies when they have a moral or conscientious objection. <\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s a great question, Kent, and I\u2019m glad that you asked it again.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Wilmington, Delaware.
