All I want is for Barack Obama to lose. That is what I want! It is probably what I care about more than anything outside of family. I\u2019m talking about you\u2019ve got the normal concerns, but I\u2019m talking about things outside of my personal life. The thing I want most is for this man to be defeated. <\/line><BR\/>Okay, so I just got this, I just literally got&#8230; What? No, it\u2019s like <a view=\"line\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=16887\">Romney<\/a>. I just got this 30 seconds ago. I was gonna be start this hour with something else. I was gonna start with the sound bites and I got a little stack here about the establishment starting to get queasy.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>But then I got this, and maybe I\u2019m gonna make too big a deal out of this. I don\u2019t know, but I just tell you here that my desires and my motivations are pure, and that is the triumph of this country &#8212; return to greatness, at least the return to the path. Okay, so to review. <a view=\"line\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=16891\">Romney<\/a> on CBS. Grab sound bite 21. This was a big point the first hour. This Mitt on CBS today with Charlie Rose. The question:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Clearly, you know the outlines of what&#8221; the Democrats and <a view=\"line\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=16893\">Newt and Perry<\/a> &#8220;want to say about your tenure at Bain Capital are clear. You were not a destructive force&#8221; and laid people off, scorched earth. What do you say to that? (replaying of sound bite) Obama was an anti-capitalist president who shut down Republican-owned dealerships, who screwed the legitimate investors, the bondholders. There was nothing capitalistic about what Obama did &#8212; and yet? &#8220;Well, yeah, I\u2019ll accept the premise. Newt and Perry are out there saying that I did scorched earth stuff at Bain. We laid people off. Yeah, yeah, just like Obama.&#8221; No! No! Not just like Obama! Sorry. We went through that in the first hour. Okay, dealt with it. Fine and dandy. Move on.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_57997\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushRomneyCNN011112.jpg\"\/><BR\/>From CNN: &#8220;Romney Feels &#8220;Sorry&#8221; for Wasserman Schultz for Having to Defend Obama.&#8221; Now, hang on, hang on. &#8220;Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney said [this] morning that he feels &#8216;sorry\u2019 for Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie [&#8220;Blabbermouth&#8221;] Schultz for having to defend President Obama\u2019s economic record. &#8216;She\u2019s got to stand up for the president\u2019s record, and it\u2019s pretty bad,\u2019 Romney said Wednesday morning on CNN.&#8221; Mitt, you just did that yourself. Why help her apologies? Mitt, you just equated&#8230; Am I making too big a deal out of this? I don\u2019t think I am. For two days, Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry have scorched the earth on how Romney burns people &#8212; and Romney today said, &#8220;Yeah, just like Obama! To save the company.&#8221;<\/line><\/p>\n<p>Oh, no, not. If I\u2019m Newt and Perry, I go out and I borrow money and I start running new ads that say: &#8220;Governor Romney accepted our premise and admitted that we are right and that he\u2019s no different than Obama!&#8221; Do you realize what Newt and Perry have at their disposal now with this? I\u2019m not making too big a deal out of it &#8212; and now he feels sorry&#8230;? And I don\u2019t care (that\u2019s not the point) what he feels about Debbie &#8220;Blabbermouth&#8221; Schultz. That\u2019s not the point! But when you go out and equate your own actions in the private sector with what Obama did at General Motors, you are defending Obama! So this is my whole point. I guess this crystallizes the problem I had and I didn\u2019t quite say it accurately, properly last hour.<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s defending what Obama did with General Motors and Chrysler in the process of trying to justify what he did at Bain, which is not what he did at Bain! All right, I\u2019ll move on. I just say if you\u2019re gonna feel bad that Debbie &#8220;Blabbermouth&#8221; Schultz has to apologize or defend Obama, then don\u2019t help her do it. (big sigh) &#8220;She\u2019s gotta stand up for the president\u2019s record, and it\u2019s pretty bad,&#8221; Romney said. You just equated yourself to a pretty large part of his record! I don\u2019t think he knows that. I\u2019m sure, to his team, they don\u2019t see it the way I do. He goes on to say, &#8220;You\u2019ve got almost 2 million people that have lost their jobs under this president. You have median income that\u2019s dropped by 10 percent over the last four years.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_57993\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/Blabbermouth-Schultz.jpg\"\/><BR\/>&#8220;You\u2019ve got 24 million people out of work or [who] have stopped looking for work. This is a failed presidency. People know that,&#8221; and Wasserman Schultz has to go out there and defend it. You want what she said? Okay, here\u2019s what she said. Debbie &#8220;Blabbermouth&#8221; Schultz &#8220;dismissed Romney\u2019s victory in Tuesday\u2019s New Hampshire primary by saying he won just 39 percent of the vote in a state next to the one he used to govern.&#8221; He should have won bigger. &#8220;He\u2019s got a family home [in New Hampshire]. He was governor of the state next door. So to not crack 40 percent in a primary [in which] you should have droves of Republicans coming to the polls to vote for you, that\u2019s a problem.&#8221;<\/line><\/p>\n<p>What do you mean did Obama enjoy firing those people at General Motors, the dealerships? You asking me. My staff does not want me to let this go. Sending me that question? Did Obama enjoy firing people? What\u2019s that got to do with Romney. Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah, I forgot that. Yeah, Romney enjoys firing people. No, I\u2019m sure. In fact, since Obama has never said that he likes firing people, the press will say, &#8220;Well, yeah, maybe Obama did have to streamline General Motors, but he hated it! He hated every layoff; he hated every lost job. He hated it. He didn\u2019t enjoy firing people like Romney admits that he likes doing.&#8221; That\u2019s so silly take out of context. Of course you fire an insurance company for not doing the job or you fire whatever. (tearing up paper)<\/p>\n<p>Okay. Folks, you know you think I\u2019ve got distracted. I\u2019ve not. I am as focused as ever. What I\u2019m doing here is really biting my tongue.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Here is Peter in Lynchburg, Virginia.  I\u2019m glad you waited.  Welcome to the EIB Network.  Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Thank you, Rush.  I think there\u2019s a very fatal flaw in Governor Romney\u2019s agreement with failed policy.  And that is Ford.  Ford did it and did it without bailout money and has survived.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  That\u2019s right.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  And actually has made a profit &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  That\u2019s right.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  &#8212; to bondholders.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Look, I got people e-mailing me trying to defend Mitt on this.  &#8220;You\u2019re misunderstanding, Rush.  It\u2019s actually a brilliant comment, Rush, it\u2019s really brilliant. He just didn\u2019t go far enough. He didn\u2019t close the loop.  He shoulda made the point it was about private sector versus public sector,&#8221; and I\u2019m thinking, look, he was in full-on defense mode, he was defending what Obama had done in the process of defending himself. He didn\u2019t look at it as a teachable moment at all.  That\u2019s what bothers me about it.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I just totally disagree with him.  He\u2019s trying to be too nice.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I think that is a factor, too.  I think that\u2019s why he says he feels sorry for Debbie &#8220;Blabbermouth&#8221; Schultz.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  He has no gravitas.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Oh, no, no, no.  He\u2019s got gravitas.  That\u2019s the thing.  This guy\u2019s got gravitas.  This guy cut your heart out.  I don\u2019t mean that pejoratively.  He\u2019d fire your butt.  Absolutely right.  The handlers, &#8220;Don\u2019t be critical. Can\u2019t go anywhere doing that. Don\u2019t call him a socialist, just say he\u2019s in over his head.&#8221;  He\u2019s not in over his head.  It\u2019s where his head is, Obama\u2019s, that\u2019s the problem.  He not in over his head at all.  He\u2019s breaking the law right in front of our faces and we don\u2019t have the guts to call him on it.  All we do is write pieces in our magazines and say, &#8220;Wow, do you believe this? He\u2019s actually recess appointing people when there\u2019s no recess.&#8221;  End of story.  Yeah, he\u2019s doing that. Yeah, he\u2019s suing Arizona because they\u2019re trying to enforce immigration law.  He\u2019s doing all kinds of lawless stuff and our great chroniclers of the deeds of the day sit around.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_57995\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaWrightAudacityBook.jpg\"\/><BR\/>But there\u2019s no action planned after the criticism is leveled.  It\u2019s very simple where Obama\u2019s head is at: white man\u2019s greed runs a world in need. Jeremiah Wright, Obama\u2019s preacher, &#8220;White folks\u2019 greed runs a world in need.&#8221;  That\u2019s the whole animating premise here.  It\u2019s in the Audacity of Hope or Dreams from My Father, whatever book it\u2019s in.  He\u2019s written it.  He\u2019s said it in interviews.  There\u2019s no mystery where Obama\u2019s head\u2019s at.  There\u2019s no mystery how he\u2019s been educated.  There\u2019s no mystery what he believes.  This is an inherently immoral and unjust nation as founded, because the 1% founded it and has been running it since it was founded.  It\u2019s not even really so much racial although you can\u2019t take the racial component out. Yes, I see Michele Obama\u2019s mad while saying she\u2019s not.  She\u2019s tired of the angry black woman image that she\u2019s got.  She\u2019s mad at the New York Times reporter for stereotyping her as an angry black woman.  Imagine that.  She\u2019s mad at somebody for portraying her as mad. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>Pat, St. Charles, Illinois.  Hi, and welcome to the EIB Network.  Welcome.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Hello, Rush, and congratulations.  You turned everybody from Brit Hume to Rachel Maddow into a Dittohead yesterday.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  (laughing) Is that how you interpreted it, that they all agreed with me?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  They couldn\u2019t start a sentence without saying, &#8220;Even Rush.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Yeah, but&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Anyway, what I wanted to talk about, because Newt is horrible at this, but this whole thing with Freddie Mac, everybody jumped all over him for his association. But the fact is, all he did was have a business. He had four offices. He had professional staff, and he gave advice to Freddie Mac whenever they needed it. And he had the misfortune of sending them invoices between 1999 and 2007 or &#8216;8, which is before everything happened.  There\u2019s no evidence that he did any lobbying &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I know.  It\u2019s the whole guilt by association thing.  It\u2019s the double standard that exists for conservatives.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I know.  But the thing is, everybody started out, &#8220;Even Rush said.&#8221;  And I don\u2019t know why Newt isn\u2019t out there defending himself.  He keeps telling us about these four Pinocchios, but nobody knows what the Pinocchios are or what the truth is.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Wait a minute.  What did I say he\u2019s not defending himself?  About what?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Well, like Freddie Mac &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  No, no.  I think he has been defending himself.  I think Newt has been.  I think that\u2019s one of the things he has been doing, is defending himself, trying to.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Hudson, New York.  Frank, thank you for waiting, sir.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  You\u2019re welcome, Rush.  I think you\u2019re doing a great job with this teachable moment, but I think we ought to insist that the Republican candidates seize this teachable moment and not be moderate in defending <a view=\"line\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=16903\">capitalism. <\/a> If Mitt Romney did nothing wrong, let\u2019s have the details of how he dissolved the company, how it would have been dissolved otherwise, because it\u2019s important for capitalists to understand, businesses failed, jobs were lost, but it\u2019s an accidental unfairness that results in government deliberate unfairness and injustice by trying to intervene.  If the capital and labor that\u2019s being deployed inefficiently is not redeployed, it just breeds more inefficiency and more un-productivity.  And you can stimulate the economy if you only refrain from stifling it.  And if you feed government money into weak enterprises to the detriment of viable enterprises, you shouldn\u2019t be surprised.  It\u2019s not only the company that\u2019s failed that finally goes under because it\u2019s unsustainable, other companies as well who had the markets undercut officially &#8212;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_57999\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/Romney.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH:  Yeah, but, see, in that circumstance the liberals would be surprised because they haven\u2019t the slightest idea what you\u2019re talking about.  There\u2019s not a liberal breathing that understands a syllable of what you just said here.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  As Buchanan said yesterday, most American people, when they hear those sound bites, they associate Mitt Romney now with Gordon Gekko, with somebody who deceives people to take over companies &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Right.  I know.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  They don\u2019t look at it as the capitalist process working even &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, we\u2019re dealing with a hard and cold reality, and that is that capitalism not only hasn\u2019t been taught for generations, it has been maligned.  The only reason this Gordon Gekko stuff sticks is because that\u2019s what people have been taught.  Gordon Gekko just confirms what they\u2019ve been taught in class about capitalists.  Gordon Gekko is not teaching anything; he\u2019s confirming, with these movies.  It\u2019s just like the movie The China Syndrome.  The China Syndrome did not really create a whole bunch of people that opposed and afraid of nuclear power.  It confirmed for people, it validated what they\u2019d already been taught.  This is an intricate web of deceit that has been woven by the left throughout every strata of our culture:  movies, books, music, television shows, you name it. <\/p>\n<p>So when you say teachable moment, yeah, teachable moment.  But you can do more damage trying to teach something when you don\u2019t know how to explain it.  And if what you\u2019re doing in your teachable moment simply defends something that people already hate, you\u2019ve lost \u2019em.  You have got to first tell them that what they believe is wrong.  And you have to convince them that what they believe is wrong.  And then you start with the examples.  But I don\u2019t know that a presidential campaign is where this happens anyway.  It can with the right communicator.  Reagan had multiple talents at teaching.  What assisted Reagan was he was likable.  You gotta remember, Reagan did not have a media. He didn\u2019t have a talk radio network or blogs.  Reagan dealt with three networks, two newspapers, the magazines, that was it. <\/p>\n<p>Reagan was so good that he was able to go over all those heads and establish a bond of likability and trust with the American people despite what was being said about him.  Very few people have that ability.  Reagan was one who did, and Reagan defended conservatism.  This is the thing that people forget.  Reagan taught conservatism.  He explained it as he went along.  When he talked about cutting taxes, he explained how it benefited the middle class, how it benefited everybody.  And everything Reagan taught was oriented around reducing the size and role of government and government\u2019s role in people\u2019s lives, which equals more and more freedom.  There\u2019s nobody out there now that is, I don\u2019t know, capable, willing to do it or what have you.  There\u2019s no question. <\/p>\n<p>Every day in politics is a teachable moment when you\u2019ve got liberals as your opponents.  We\u2019ve got our side so scared to be critical of it because of what\u2019s gonna happen with the independents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: I\u2019m sorry, I can\u2019t let this go.
