RUSH: This is Orville in Columbus, Ohio. Great to have you on the program, sir. Hello.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Hey, there, Rush. Great to talk to you.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Thank you very much, sir.<\/p>\n
CALLER: I didn\u2019t think this would ever happen, but everything\u2019s possible. I just called to really encourage you, to let you know how you influence people. I\u2019m almost 76 — I\u2019ll be 76 at the end of the month — and I suppose I was probably 60 years old the first time I heard you. Some of the fellows where I worked were telling me about a guy on the radio that had “a very large mouth and a very large ego.”<\/p>\n
RUSH: Oh, yeah! Can\u2019t have one without the other.<\/p>\n
CALLER: That\u2019s exactly right. Basically I had to force myself a couple times to hear you and I thought, “Well, I want to hear a little more,” and after I listened for about… Well, it didn\u2019t take me real long, probably a couple months. And I think I was, you might say, a “Senior Rush Baby.” I had been registered with our opposition party all my life, and since then I\u2019ve changed my politics. I\u2019ve become somewhat of an armchair activist whenever I can.<\/p>\n
CALLER: (chuckles) That\u2019s exactly right. I like to send out my e-mails to my senators and bug \u2019em to death, and I\u2019ve got a bunch of grandkids and kids that are on our side, too. I have one grandson in particular that just told me yesterday, he says, “That guy\u2019s my favorite,” talkin\u2019 about you. I\u2019m proud of him, and I\u2019m just proud to be able to say that I am for our Constitution. I signed up for the Constitution class.<\/p>\n
RUSH: At Hillsdale?<\/p>\n
CALLER: Yep.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Well. Good for you.<\/p>\n
CALLER: I like my Imprimis. I\u2019m just a full-fledged conservative now.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Well, don\u2019t you enjoy life a little bit more?<\/p>\n
CALLER: Oh, I enjoy life to the max!<\/p>\n
RUSH: You\u2019re not angry all the time. You\u2019re not looking to be offended all the time. You\u2019re not outraged all the time. You have to be enjoying yourself a little bit more.<\/p>\n
CALLER: That\u2019s exactly it. I got a good outlook. You know, things do look pretty dismal, but I think there\u2019s brighter days ahead, and we just have to hang in there. I hope that a lot of the people wise up — even those on the other side, you know — and realize the damage that\u2019s been done in the last three-and-a-half years.<\/p>\n
RUSH: No, let me tell you something. This is a hard, cold reality that you\u2019re gonna have to face. There may be some of those, but not very many. The hardcore people that you\u2019re talking about who represent our opposition believe fully, 100% what Obama\u2019s doing. There has been a seismic shift on that side of the aisle of the people of this country. It\u2019s taken a while, but it\u2019s the result of decades of public education being corrupted and higher education curricula. This is how these people have been educated. It is how they have been informed. They are all-in for this. They are totally wrong about the loveliness that awaits them — the peace, the happiness, the utopia that awaits them — because there isn\u2019t one. But that\u2019s what they\u2019re in it for.<\/p>\n
They\u2019re all signed up.<\/p>\n
Some of them are gonna see the light. The real challenge here is to stop the growth on that side of the aisle in terms of political belief. Because they\u2019re rooted. That\u2019s why they have to be defeated. Not accommodated. Not appeased. Not compromised with. There\u2019s nothing there to compromise with. They have to be defeated. This is why so many people on our side are doubtful that the people in our upper echelon (the upper echelon of the Republican Party) really understand the threat the country faces. They wonder if they signed up for that. That\u2019s one of the big problems. The lack of confidence on our side is purely based on no evidence that the leaders on our side of anything see it that way. Time will tell. But we\u2019re glad to have you, and it\u2019s great to hear from you. I\u2019m glad you took the time, Orville.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
