RUSH: ABC, I guess, they went to the crypt, found Brian Ross and said, “Okay, time to get out of the casket, bud. We got a thing we want you to look into here for Romney.”<\/p>\n

ABC: “Mitt Romney Sent Millions to Mormon Church — Underscoring the prominent, if little discussed role that Mitt Romney played as a Mormon leader, the private equity giant once run by the GOP presidential frontrunner carved his church a slice of several of its most lucrative business deals, securities records show, providing it with millions of dollars worth of stock in some of Bain Capital\u00c2\u2019s most well-known holdings.” So what? Valerie Jarrett just broke the law! She went into a church and gave a political speech ripping into the Republicans and then after the church speech, they did a voter registration drive in a church. Romney\u2019s<\/a> not breaking the law.<\/p>\n

<\/a>What\u2019s wrong with giving to your church? It\u2019s a charity! He didn\u2019t take all the money himself like the Clintons do. He\u2019s not hiding it in some family foundation where he can get access to it later, plus a charitable deduction off the top of the donation he\u2019s made. Zero interest in Obama from the ABC investigative unit. Zero. I don\u2019t know how much money Obama gave Reverend Wright. We don\u2019t know how much money Obama gave Reverend Wright. We don\u2019t know how much money Reverend Wright gave Obama. We don\u2019t know any of this! All we know is Obama says he never heard Reverend Wright in 20 years.<\/p>\n

“Oh, okay. Good. You didn\u2019t hear him.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

You can count the number of journalists who have vetted Obama on one finger: Lynn Sweet. It was Lynn Sweet(and she didn\u2019t do it as much as she could have) with the Chicago Tribune, I believe. Well, the Mormons tithe, what is it, 10% of their income goes to the church? Okay, 10% of their income goes to the church. That\u2019s what Romney<\/a> did. Big whoop! It\u2019s now the subject of an investigative report at ABC News. Hey, Brian Ross, you know, Harry Reid is a Mormon. Why don\u2019t we do some investigation to find out how much money Harry Reid\u2019s given to the church? How about an investigation of Harry Reid and his land deals and his son\u2019s land deals? The LA Times has broken the ground there. All you gotta do is basically go to the LA Times archives and start doing some updated investigation. “Oh, no, can\u2019t go there! Harry Reid\u2019s not presumed to be guilty of anything because he\u2019s a Democrat.”<\/p>\n

So that\u2019s how this is all played and this is what\u2019s happening now, and you add to it the Republicans going after each other. But it is what it is, folks. It is what it is. This is politics. The old clich\u00c3\u00a9: It ain\u2019t beanbag; it\u2019s dirty stuff.” Snerdley made the observation: “Every time Newt <\/a>has a good day, the next day look out.” So Newt has a good day, then says, “Okay, Rick and Rick, get out of this. Get out of the race and coalesce behind me. I\u2019m the conservative that can beat Romney. I\u2019m the conservative can win.” Meanwhile, Santorum is outperforming Newt in every primary so far. He\u2019s getting more votes up until South Carolina. We\u2019ll see. Santorum says, “I\u2019m not gonna be bullied out of this.” On one hand, folks, you have to say it\u2019s entertaining; it\u2019s fun. On the other hand, it\u2019s tough to watch. (chuckling) I gotta take a break. (interruption) What, you think I\u2019m gonna pay for that comment? (chuckling) Well, that happened yesterday. There was a woman that was watching Megyn Kelly. She had like eight or nine women, a cross section of average Americans: Fat white women. Well, they were. A couple of women, all were fat, were fat white women, and one of them said, “I don\u2019t want Newt as the nominee. He\u2019s a fat, old rich white guy,” and I had a point out he\u2019s not rich.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: I wonder if ABC News will do an investigative report and tell us — you watch, this is gonna happen — how much does Tim Tebow give to his church? You watch. At some point, they will. By the way, Tebow said no to CBS Sports. He\u2019s not gonna show up on their Sunday pregame show. Good for him. He doesn\u2019t want to show up and have to fake laugh. It\u2019s said that the Dancing With the Stars people are going to seek out Tebow. He\u2019ll say no to that, too. Tebow doesn\u2019t need these media people. The media has not made him. He does not need to turn himself over to the media, here. He\u2019s bigger than the media. He doesn\u2019t need \u2019em at all. They want Tebow in a position where they can break him by having made him, and he\u2019s smart to stay away from all this stuff.<\/p>\n

Now, when I say it\u2019s fun watching this, I don\u2019t want you to misunderstand. It\u2019s fun like watching nature documentaries, like watching animals eat each other. It\u2019s fun, it\u2019s interesting, it\u2019s, “Wow, look at that,” but it\u2019s not something that you\u2019d leave your house to go see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
