RUSH: Obama is just looking as small and tiny as he can. Now going to another bridge. A bridge that is not in peril. A bridge that is not threatened. He\u2019s going to a bridge that he believes needs repair. He\u2019s hoping to embarrass Boehner and McConnell. He\u2019s flying to Boehner country to sell his jobs idea near a major structure in need of repair, and it isn\u2019t, but that\u2019s the optic that he wants to create. So I have a question: If Obama knows that there is a bridge that might collapse resulting in death, and in North Carolina ten days ago, last week, whenever it was, remember there were 153 bridges and four very near — there\u2019s Clinton right now from Newsmax on Fox. So this is getting out there now. He-he-he-he-he. <\/p>\n
There\u2019s gonna be a mea culpa at some point down the road. Clinton\u2019s gonna have to do something about this. (imitating Clinton) “I was misinterpreted in what I said. I firmly support the president of the United States. I think he\u2019s doing the right thing.” He\u2019ll worm his way out of it somehow, it\u2019s gonna be fun to watch. At any rate, ladies and gentlemen, four bridges near where Obama was, he wouldn\u2019t identify them. I was asking, did his car, did The Beast travel over one of those bridges with Michelle in it? That car weighs 8,000 pounds without her in it. Did he put himself and her at risk driving over one of these bridges? He didn\u2019t tell us which ones they are. <\/p>\n
There\u2019s nothing in Obama\u2019s stimulus that has anything to do with it. It\u2019s purely a photo-op. There\u2019s nothing wrong with the bridge, but he wants people to think it\u2019s dangerous. Who knows what kind of hell he\u2019s gonna cause with this. But why is he giving trial lawyers all kinds of money but not fixing bridges? Why did we give him nearly a trillion dollars with the first stimulus and he didn\u2019t fix any bridges? He goes to a bridge, tries to convince people that it is dangerous and in need of repair. He pushed through a $1 trillion shovel-ready jobs bill, later says there aren\u2019t that many shovel-ready jobs while laughing about it with Jeffrey Immelt.<\/p>\n
Yet clearly he\u2019s fixated now on this bridge when it didn\u2019t get fixed. This is the Brent Spence Bridge. It doesn\u2019t qualify for any program that exists now or any Obama is proposing; and, even if it got money, there are other projects ahead of it. Work wouldn\u2019t start for years. (interruption) Well, they\u2019ve already done the environmental studies, what they need to do here. But even if they hadn\u2019t and they had to do those, that would add time to it. There are no earmarks for the Brent Spence Bridge in Obama\u2019s jobs bill. There\u2019s not a penny allocated for it. So what\u2019s he doing there? There\u2019s not a penny allocated for the Brent Spence Bridge.<\/p>\n
The only thing that got repaired with the first stimulus was the Democrat Party\u2019s infrastructure, and we see what happened to it. So what this shows is his smallness, his coldness, incompetence (maybe that\u2019s the first thing: glaring incompetence), misplaced priorities; that all of this spending, this massive spending spree of his has totally failed. Half a billion dollars for a bankrupt, no-business-there solar energy company, and nothing for the bridge. Nothing for the bridge! He\u2019s looking really small, folks. He\u2019s looking really, to me, tiny. At the UN, it looked like he was standing in a shower. Where were the Greek columns? Those green tiles looked like he was in a shower at some health club spa or something. (interruption)<\/p>\n

“They\u2019re a bunch of cheats, a bunch of thieves who wouldn\u2019t have anything if it weren\u2019t for the rest of us! And we\u2019ve been screwed. Factory owners got his big factory, but he didn\u2019t do it on his own. It couldn\u2019t have been done without us, what are we getting for it? Nothing but a bunch of grief and no health care!” That\u2019s the way she looks at the world: Distrust business owners. Ditto Obama. So it would be “fair,” wouldn\u2019t it, to go out and extract money from greedy businesses to redistribute to cooperative crony capitalists like Solyndra and LightSquared, especially if these businesses won\u2019t go out and hire people just to help his unemployment problem.<\/p>\n
All that would make sense to an angry, emotionally blinded guy steeped in Marxism and the black liberation theology taught at Jeremiah Wright\u2019s church. These people don\u2019t know the first damn thing about how businesses operate or how they make decisions. He lacks intuition. For all we know the guy may not even be anywhere near as bright as advertised. You know what I hope he does? I hope he goes to that bridge and I hope he channels Reagan. (impression) “Mr. Boehner? Mr. Boehner, tear down this bridge!” Wouldn\u2019t you love to see Obama say, “Mr. Boehner, tear down this bridge! People are dying. People are gonna die on this bridge!” The president of the United States… That\u2019s the dream. He wouldn\u2019t do it, would he? Oh, I would love it.<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: My dogs have created more shovel-ready work than Obama has (chuckling) just this week alone. The new puppy. Honest to God. More shovel-ready work for me this week than Obama has created all two and a half years.<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: There\u2019s a story in the Raleigh News & “Disturber” recently about Obama\u2019s trip there and the bridges. Last week in the Raleigh area, Obama was there, and during his speech to a bunch of skulls full of mush at a university, he said that the bridges in Raleigh were about to come tumbling down unless we passed this stupid bill. That was the message he left everybody with. Dangerous situation. Bridges, in some cases in a state of urgent disrepair. (Imitating Obama), “We need to pass this bill now, pass this bill today, so we can fix those bridges.” So finally ten days after he\u2019s gone the local media is starting to ask, “Well, how many bridges are in danger of spilling unsuspected drivers into the drink?” And it turns out none. The Raleigh News & “Disturber” went out and did their own survey, apparently. <\/p>\n
Here\u2019s a pull-quote. “Obama appears to have undercounted his bridges. And at the same time — employing the deft spin that political speakers use when they spice up a little information to make a big impression — the president may have over-suggested the risk to public safety.” “Over-suggested” is how lapdog media defines lying? Obama may have “over-suggested” the risk to public safety? The headline of the story is: “Worry Not, Triangle\u2019s Bridges Are Safe.” We all knew that they were. Now, I have people e-mailing me, “Rush, Obama\u2019s not a Marxist. He just invested $90,000 in LightSquared.” Yet, he did not just, but he did. And we want to be fair here. Obama, when it comes to their own money, they\u2019re not Marxists, folks. Senator Obama, United States Senator Barack Obama invested $90,000 in LightSquared on the day they got FCC approval. Of course that was just a coincidence, and it was another coincidence that George Soros just happens to be a major investor in LightSquared. <\/p>\n

RUSH: I love that Raleigh News & Observer. Obama “over-suggested” the danger of the bridges. A new way for lapdog media to define lying. Obama “over-suggested.” Yeah, I didn\u2019t default on my mortgage; my bank over-loaned. No, no, no, no, I wasn\u2019t stalking that Hollywood actress! I was over-admiring. (laughing) Over-suggested. Here\u2019s what he said, by the way. You want to talk about over-suggesting.<\/p>\n
OBAMA: There are 153 structurally deficient bridges that need to be repaired. Four of them are near here on or around the Beltline. Why would we wait to act until another bridge falls? (cheers and applause)<\/p>\n
RUSH: Why would we…? The president of the United States knows that bridges are gonna fall and he\u2019s gonna let people die until they pass his bill! He\u2019s “over-suggesting” the danger. So the Raleigh newspaper wanted to know: Where are these bridges? They went out and they can\u2019t find one that is in a state of disrepair. They can\u2019t find one that\u2019s in danger of collapse. Not one! I mean, this is presidential panic. This is Ted Mack and the original amateur hour. That\u2019s precisely what this is.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
