They want low taxes; a business-friendly, limited government. That\u2019s not sabotage. That\u2019s rescue!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Government doesn\u2019t create jobs. Government transfers wealth around. It doesn\u2019t create anything. It destroys it, pure and simple.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Obama says you can\u2019t cut your way to prosperity. You must certainly can, and we must. We can\u2019t afford what we\u2019re spending now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is a business, radio, where people get fired on a whim. You know how many times I\u2019ve been fired; I\u2019ve told you. I wear it as a badge of honor.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Everybody at some point in their life has epiphanies where they learn things. Lights go off or somebody teaches them something that they didn\u2019t know. Hopefully that will happen your whole life. I learn something every day.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019ve always said that most people\u2019s limitations are self-imposed. Most of the limitations are not placed on you by others, but rather on yourself.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Young people need to have the vistas of their dreams as wide open as possible. There\u2019s nothing wrong with anybody thinking they can do anything.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I once heard Oprah Winfrey say that she\u2019s not one of these people afraid of success, and I, El Rushbo, knew exactly what she meant. A person who is afraid of success is a person who has no confidence.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019ll tell you what\u2019s shaping up here, folks, on the Fourth of July: It\u2019s the Democrat Party versus America. It\u2019s Obama versus America. It\u2019s the left versus America. That\u2019s where we are.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Republicans are all about creating jobs. Republicans are capitalists and it\u2019s capitalism that produces jobs and creates jobs.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Big government undermines the private sector. The private sector is the economy. Liberals weaken or sabotage economies; conservatives stimulate and rescue them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Republicans are all about job creation, freedom, and liberty. Conservative Republicans particularly.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019m going to be in Joplin along with a lot of us from Two If By Tea. This really isn\u2019t about the tea. We\u2019re talking here about American exceptionalism.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Joplin, Missouri, didn\u2019t blame global warming for their tornadoes. That\u2019s another reason they deserve our arrival and all of the support they\u2019re getting.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Learning is what you learn after you know everything. Very simple. Learning is what you figure out after you know everything.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Fourth of July is fitting to honor heroes among us, of course, including the military, and every day, common, ordinary, average people, the people who make this country work are doing their part to make it better. That\u2019s what we\u2019re all about at Two If By Tea, American pride, American unity.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The new IMF woman replacing this guy happens to be from Chicago. Anybody want to start talking conspiracies here? This is delectable. This is going to be fun.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If Republicans are sabotaging the economy, why is the Texas economy so strong? Why is North Dakota\u2019s economy booming? Why is New Jersey\u2019s economy on the rebound?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The bottom line is we\u2019re gonna find out what kind of country we are, and I think we got a pretty good answer in November\u2019s elections in 2010. The next chance, of course, is November 2012.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I love sharing my passions with you. It will be 23 years on August 1st, just a month away, our 23rd anniversary.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Once people can overcome this notion of self-limitation then the world opens up to you and your perspective on life changes. Anything within your dreaming and imagination becomes possible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Speaking of sabotage, both Schumer and Durbin are pushing for yet another stimulus, which is another failure.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Two If By Tea\u2019s giant semi will be rolling into Joplin, Missouri, to join in the citywide Fourth of July celebration. We want to show the people of Joplin the stronger meaning of what it means to be American.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Republicans in Washington want what has worked in Texas and Tennessee and North Dakota.
