Hi, Lara, great to have you on the EIB Network.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Howdy, Rush!<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Hi!<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Hi! I just wanted to let you know that I listen to you every day on the radio and I can\u2019t tell you how many times I\u2019ve heard people call in and tell you thank you for being a great American or The Big Voice on the Right and that\u2019s awesome but I have a different thing I want to thank you for.  I was raised by a dad who every night when he came home from work would get all excited and turn the Rush Limbaugh show on TV, and I can\u2019t remember the year that you were on TV but I remember I was really young and I didn\u2019t know what politics were or what it meant to be liberal or conservative (giggles) but actually I just want to say thank you for being that role model for so many people.  Now, I have a great dad and I know even if we watched you or not he would have raised me right &#8212;  and on the right, of course &#8212; but just having you on obviously imprinted me.  I mean, my boyfriend called me the Rush Baby. (giggles)  I learned to tie my shoes in front of you while you were on.  So&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Now, you have made my day.  I appreciate that.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: (giggles)<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I mean, you sat in front of the television during my TV show and you just soaked it all up.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I was so little.  I remember it, though.  <a view=\"line\" href=\"\/\/videos\" anchor_name=\"uri=channels\/381255\/1519420\">You remember that dollar bill that you used to wear, that you folded into a ribbon?<\/a><\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah.  My dad and I made that together. We both made one and he strapped it on my shirt.<\/p>\n<p><a view=\"line\" href=\"https:\/\/members.premiereinteractive.com\/store\/28566\/41840.html\"><img class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushBaby585.jpg\"\/><\/a>RUSH:  That was the Deficit Reduction Awareness Ribbon.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah.  He would&#8230; I didn\u2019t know what the heck it meant, but he would send me to school and said, &#8220;I know you don\u2019t understand this, but&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Everybody was wearing the Deficit Reduction Awareness Ribbon!<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes!<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: That was to show you cared about the deficit.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes!<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: One night I came out wearing every colored ribbon there was.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  That\u2019s awesome. That\u2019s awesome.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  And I said, &#8220;This means I care more about all these issues than you do! You are worthless.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: (giggles) That\u2019s right.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: &#8220;I matter, I count, I have a bigger heart than you \u2019cause I\u2019m wearing these ribbons.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Right.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  That was a fun time and those are memories I cherish with my dad and I just think it\u2019s really cool.  So thanks for all you do, Rush.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  How old are you now, can I ask?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I am 25 years old.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Twenty-five years old.  Well, this is wonderful.  I am so glad that you got through.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I am, too.  Snerdley\u2019s awesome!<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, this is what Open Line Friday is all about!  Do you&#8230;? Let me ask you a question.  Do you use computers, do you like computers?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I love computers.  They\u2019re awesome.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  What kind do you have?<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushEIBIpad.jpg\"\/><BR\/>CALLER:  I have a Dell PC laptop.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Ah, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  What?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: No, no, no.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: It\u2019s a little pink one! It\u2019s neat!<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Do you have an iPad?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I do not.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Want one?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: (Gasp!)<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: (Gasp!)<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: With your autograph?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Yeah.  I\u2019ll send you one.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  It has to have your autograph.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I\u2019ll send you one.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  If it doesn\u2019t have your autograph, I don\u2019t want it.  It has to be autographed.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I\u2019ll send you an EIB Rush signature engraved iPad.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: (Gasp!)<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: (Gasp!)
