BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: I want to move on to pond scum, because the president said that algae is our ticket. It\u2019s our ticket out of this mess of high gasoline prices. In Coral Gables, Florida, yesterday afternoon at the University of Miami, this is part of what he said.<\/p>\n
OBAMA: We\u2019re making new investments in the development of gasoline and diesel and jet fuel that\u2019s actually made from a plant-like substance, algae. You got a bunch of algae out here, right? If we can figure out how to make energy out of that, well, we\u2019ll be doing all right.<\/p>\n
RUSH: How do you think the people down there felt to be in such nearness to such brilliance? The light, the glow, the eminence that was emanating from The One, how could people even bear to look at him. Such is the intelligence that he exudes. We\u2019re new investments in the development of gasoline and diesel jet fuel actually made from pond scum. I\u2019m surprised he didn\u2019t say, “And we got more pond scum here than they have anywhere in the world.” He wasn\u2019t through. He said, “Believe it or not we could replace up to 17% of the oil that we import for transportation with this fuel that we can grow right here in America.” This is the smartest man in the world. This is our Messiah. This is Mr. Hopey Changey. This is the guy who was unlike any politician America had ever seen. This was the great unifier. This was the guy with the solutions to all our problems. Pond scum. <\/p>\n
He continued, as he has been doing for his entire administration, making fun of the concept of drilling. He keeps saying, (imitating Obama) “They say drill, drill, drill, drill, but that\u2019s not a solution.” He says that\u2019s for two reasons. He said that\u2019s not an immediate solution. It\u2019s gonna take two to thee years. They\u2019ve been saying that for 30 years, folks. For 30 years we have been suggesting drill, baby, drill and it\u2019s, no, no, no, it\u2019s not gonna take effect for three to five years, it\u2019s not an immediate fix. Imagine 30 years ago if we woulda just started new drilling, new exploration, where we would be today. And where are we? We\u2019re listening to the president of the United States actually tell us that our salvation, the answer to six-dollar-a-gallon gasoline, is freaking pond scum. <\/p>\n
I see it every day. Every time I\u2019m on a golf course, still waters on the lake. I see that stuff. It\u2019s floating, but it\u2019s not even moving, it\u2019s so gunky and thick. And I didn\u2019t have the slightest idea that I was looking at the new source of American wealth and the new source of America\u2019s energy independence. I hadn\u2019t the slightest idea. Let\u2019s listen to more from our fearless leader, Barack Hussein Obama, in Florida yesterday.<\/p>\n
OBAMA: Now, some politicians, they see this as a political opportunity. I know you\u2019re shocked by that. Last week the lead story in one newspaper said: “Gasoline prices are on the rise and Republicans are licking their chops.” That\u2019s a quote. That was the lead. Licking their chops. Only in politics do people root for bad news, do they greet bad news so enthusiastically. You pay more, they\u2019re licking their chops.<\/p>\n

OBAMA: You can bet that, since it\u2019s an election year, they\u2019re already dusting off their three-point plan for two dollar gas. And I\u2019ll save you the suspense. Step one is to drill and step two is to drill. And then step three is to keep drilling. We heard the same line in 2007 when I was running for president. We hear the same thing every year. We\u2019ve heard the same thing for 30 years. Well, the American people aren\u2019t stupid. They know that\u2019s not a plan.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Stop, whoa, for 30 years! That\u2019s right, we\u2019ve been hearing “Let\u2019s drill” for 30 years and people like you have been standing in the way. If we had been drilling the last 30 years, then it wouldn\u2019t be five years from now before we would see any benefit. We would be in the middle, in the midst of the benefit. This guy pounds the final nail in the coffin of his own idea. (imitating Obama) “They\u2019ve been saying it for 30 years.” Yeah, and if we had been drilling for 30 years we wouldn\u2019t have to be looking at pond scum, and another thing, we wouldn\u2019t be looking at six-dollar-a-gallon gasoline.<\/p>\n

They also say that the United States only has 2% of the world\u2019s oil reserves. With fracking, it is now established that we have what could be the largest deposits of oil in the world. This 2% business, they use that because when you say that we only have 2% of the world\u2019s oil reserves, people think, oh, you want to get 2% of the world\u2019s oil in the ground. No. That\u2019s not what reserves means. They pointed it out at Power Line. Reserves, the definition of reserves, is controlled by securities law, not geology. Oil isn\u2019t counted as part of our reserves unless it\u2019s legal to extract it and economic to extract it. What it means is only 2% of what we got can we legally go get. That what we have we can\u2019t legally go get because of Democrat policies. That\u2019s what it means.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
