Great to have you on the program, sir. You are up first.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hey, Rush. It\u2019s an honor to talk to you, man.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Thanks.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125108.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"172\" class=\"alignright\"\/>CALLER: Hey listen, man, I am outraged with Boehner and I\u2019m outraged with this old guard Republican. I mean, I\u2019m telling you, I\u2019m livid to the point I e-mailed Boehner yesterday and told him he would never get a dime from me again. I\u2019ll never support the Republican Party again.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: These guys&#8230; Boehner was on Hannity yesterday, Rush, saying he fought like a dog for this $38 billion. Fought like a dog. And now we\u2019re finding out that it\u2019s not even in the billions, we\u2019re talking millions.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah. Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: And I\u2019m trying to figure out at what point, Rush, do we say this party\u2019s rotgut from the inside and we\u2019ve gotta break from it, maybe get behind the Tea Party, a third party. Maybe get behind the FairTax, do something that\u2019s gonna make a difference.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You don\u2019t want a third party. What we want to do is (ah, I\u2019m not particularly crazy about the phrase, but) &#8220;take over&#8221; the Republican Party. Look, I know John Boehner. I played golf with John Boehner. He\u2019s a fine man. I want everybody to know that. It\u2019s unfortunate that he\u2019s being (sighs) not &#8220;slurred,&#8221; but he\u2019s coming in for it. I mean, he\u2019s getting his share of criticism as events unfold and information is gleaned. He\u2019s a fine man, folks. He\u2019s what we would all say in the common parlance, is a good guy. I think that different forms of leadership. You got caretaker, you have aggressive. In this case, I don\u2019t know for certain what the objective of the leadership is. <\/p>\n<p>Best I can tell, they don\u2019t really think they\u2019ve won anything. If you had to nail me down, if you had to pin me down to try to get me to explain this &#8212; my wild guess would be that if we could get in their heads &#8212; they don\u2019t think they\u2019ve won anything yet, and they\u2019re not gonna act like it. When Boehner says we are, what, &#8220;one half of one-third,&#8221; that\u2019s not the kind of talk you get from people who think they\u2019ve won something. You and I think we had a shellacking win in November. But they don\u2019t. They don\u2019t think they won anything, yet. Plus there\u2019s in natural fear. I\u2019ve explained it. I don\u2019t have time to go into it again. There\u2019s this natural fear of Democrats, the media, and Obama specifically in the Beltway. <\/p>\n<p>END TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>*Note: Links to content outside RushLimbaugh.com usually become inactive over time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: This is Jason in Atlanta.
