Soros.  George Soros made a profit from buying MF Global\u2019s bonds.  George Soros, $2 billion worth of it.  And he\u2019s making a profit off of it.  Now, the media, we have a series of media people here.  &#8220;It\u2019s a tragedy for Corzine.  It\u2019s so unfortunate.  It was so very sad for Corzine.&#8221;  You know, when Democrats steal, it\u2019s a tragedy for the thief, not the victims.  It\u2019s a tragedy for the thief.  It\u2019s a depressing saga of a brilliant man brought down by just the warmest of good intentions.  And they\u2019re sad, the media is so sad, such promise.  Corzine, he really believes the right stuff on environment and abortion and it\u2019s a sad, sad thing.  What we have here is a Wall Street crook, but he\u2019s a Democrat, so the tone\u2019s totally different.  Listen to this.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>MURPHY: The collapse of MF global is the latest chapter in a life story marked by ego inflating highs and ego shattering lows.<\/p>\n<p>BLITZER: An embarrassing admission from Jon Corzine, the former senator, the former governor. He makes a less than pleasant return to Capitol Hill.<\/p>\n<p>KEENE:  The tragedy that brought down MF Global.<\/p>\n<p>DAVIS:  This is a tragedy.  I feel badly for Senator Corzine.<\/p>\n<p>COHAN:  I\u2019m so disheartened by this whole episode and Corzine\u2019s performance in it.  This is a very sad chapter.<\/p>\n<p>GASPARINO: People that know Jon Corzine, it\u00c2\u2019s not in his bones to dodge questions. <\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I don\u2019t know, folks, can we get through the weekend?  We feel so bad for Senator Corzine.  It\u2019s a tragedy, a very, very sad chapter.  It\u2019s such a great crook who did it so wrong he got caught.  What a tragedy.  Here\u2019s Obama, by the way.  This is November 1st, 2009 at a Corzine for Governor reelection campaign event.<\/p>\n<p>OBAMA:  For the past four years you\u2019ve had an honorable man at the helm in this state, during one of the most difficult periods in its history.  When it comes to the issues that matter most, like jobs, Jon Corzine\u2019s been a true leader.  He was one of the best colleagues I had in the Senate, but he\u2019s also one of the best partners I have in the White House.<\/p>\n<p><BR\/>RUSH:  See how this works?  He has the right views abortion, he hates conservatives, he hates Republicans, loves unions, is personally very rich and wealthy, ran Goldman Sachs, so he\u2019s got a license to steal, and then to be felt sorry for after getting caught.  Yesterday on Capitol Hill, this during the House agriculture hearing on the bankruptcy of the MF-ers, and MF Global, former CEO and former Governor Jon Corzine testified, and the question here from Randy Neugebauer, Republican, <\/line><img id=\"eZObject_57052\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushCorzineWolf.jpg\"\/><BR\/>Texas, they have this exchange about the transfer of funds out of certain accounts at MF Global.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>NEUGEBAUER:  Did you ever authorize any of your people?<\/p>\n<p>CORZINE:  I never intended to authorize anyone.<\/p>\n<p>NEUGEBAUER:  So you never intended to, but you may have?<\/p>\n<p>CORZINE:  If, if, if I did, it was a misunderstanding because there is no intention under any context that I can think of that I was authorizing tapping into segregated funds<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Yeah, just $680 billion missing.  Could be as high as $1.2 billion, $680 million, could be as high as $1.2 billion. (imitating Corzine) &#8220;Yeah, I have no idea, it\u2019s just gone. I don\u2019t know how it ended up being commingled. I didn\u2019t authorize any crime. I might have authorized. I didn\u2019t intend to authorize. I don\u2019t think I authorized the crime, but it\u2019s missing. I don\u2019t know where it is.  Why am I even here?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You know, folks, I just figured it out. We\u2019re looking at this Corzine thing all wrong, as usual. We\u2019re looking at it through the wrong prism. The real question is &#8212; and this is what Corzine shoulda said yesterday. &#8220;Look, I\u2019ve been a politician all my life. How do you expect me to keep track of such a paltry sum as $600 million? Don\u2019t you know I deal in trillions? Six hundred billion, $600 million to me is like a 50\u00c2\u00a2 piece to you. I can\u2019t tell you where it goes. That\u2019s a rounding error! You expect I\u2019m supposed to know where $600 million went? Even if it\u2019s a billion, big deal! That\u2019s chump change compared to what I\u2019ve been stealing &#8212; uh, dealing with in New Jersey and giving to Obama.&#8221; That\u2019s the real answer to the question.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, we didn\u2019t get to this this week but I had it in the stack. There was a story out of Indiana. They found $300 unspent million dollars. Get this, folks. In this climate, in this national economic climate, they found $300 million unspent, essentially a surplus in Indiana. You would think, &#8220;Holy cow, that\u2019s great news. Our state\u2019s sitting pretty!&#8221; Nope. The unions had a cow. The left went bat excrement because that was $300 million that was not spent on children\u2019s school lunch, bribing people. They literally were angry. That $300 million represented people getting screwed rather than $300 million being saved. Rather than it meaning the state didn\u2019t need it. If they lost it, they obviously didn\u2019t need it. &#8220;No. No! We\u2019re not gonna take that and invest it. We\u2019re gonna spend that and we\u2019re gonna give that money to who it rightfully belongs to: Union people!&#8221; Honestly, that was the reaction the left had to the discovery of a $300 million essentially a surplus in the state of Indiana.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Corzine, as we know, testified yesterday about the MF-ers.
