(laughing) I kid you not. Now, it\u2019s a long story. It\u2019s not in the headline. You have to dig halfway down or even further in the story. The headline of this story is: &#8216;Gaddafi Bombs Oil Areas, Faces Crimes Probe.\u2019 That\u2019s page one. You go to page two, really small font here. There\u2019s this: &#8216;Opposition activists called for a no-fly zone, echoing a demand by Libya\u2019s deputy U.N. envoy, who now opposes Gaddafi. &#8216;Bring Bush! Make a no fly zone, bomb the planes,\u2019 shouted soldier-turned-rebel Nasr Ali, referring to a no-fly zone imposed on Iraq in 1991 by then U.S. President George Bush. Italy said it was preparing for a potential mass exodus of migrants escaping turmoil in North Africa after a rise in flows of illegal immigrants from Tunisia&#8230;\u2019<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125111.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"179\" class=\"alignright\"\/>So they\u2019re clamoring for the Bushes. They\u2019re clamoring for the Bushes. Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton\u2019s out there saying, &#8216;Yeah, al-Jazeera is the real news. Al-Jazeera is really good.\u2019 Here\u2019s Hillary. Audio sound bite number 12. Yesterday afternoon in Washington (&#8216;Warshington,\u2019 for those of you in Rio Linda). It was a Senate foreign operations subcommittee of the Senate Appropriations Committee, and there\u2019s a Q&amp;amp;A, Ron Johnson (Republican-Wisconsin), said, &#8216;I totally agree with you about the power of information. I\u2019d like to have your evaluation in terms of the priority of our information initiative. I mean, what are the components that you want to most emphasize in that region, the Middle East, of the world?\u2019<\/p>\n<p>HILLARY: (shouting) Al-Jazeera has been the &#8212; the leader in &#8212; that are literally changing people\u2019s minds and attitudes. And like it or hate it, it is really effective. Viewership of al-Jazeera is going up in the United States because it\u2019s real news! You may not agree with it, but you feel you\u2019re getting real news around the clock instead of a million commercials and, you know, arguments between talking heads and the kind of stuff that we do on our news &#8212; which, you know, is not particularly informative to us, let alone foreigners.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho! Yeah, right on, mama! Al-Jazeera\u2019s real news. Walter Cronkite is turning over in his grave. He is dead. He did die, didn\u2019t he? He\u2019s turning over in his grave. Holy smokes! The Secretary of State (summarized): &#8216;Al-Jazeera, there\u2019s real news. Not like our news where you have a bunch of talking heads arguing, kinda stuff we do on our news, which is not particularly informative to us.\u2019 Whoa ho-ho-ho-ho. Do you understand the hurt feelings right now over at MSNBC and CNN? I mean, their goddess just undercut \u2019em. Okay, what would be the solution? How about simply piping in the EIB Network? We don\u2019t do arguments with talking heads here. The EIB Network is real news. Why don\u2019t we pipe EIB into all those countries in the Middle East? All around the world. We\u2019re the real voice of America anyway. Why not just pipe EIB in there? We change people\u2019s minds every day. We present real news here every day. Even Hillary knows that. She knows it all too well. Al-Jazeera. She\u2019s watching it. In order to have this opinion of it, she is watching it. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: From al-Jazeera. &#8216;Israel, Where Are You? &#8212; While the Arab world joins together in a call for democracy, Israel\u2019s democracy is unraveling. As the Arab world demands accountability from its leaders, Israel\u2019s leaders are facing investigations and indictments. As the Arab world demands greater social mobility and economic opportunity, Israel\u2019s gap between the rich and poor continues to widen.\u2019 (laughing) Folks, that\u2019s their tease for the whole story. That\u2019s the opening paragraph, sort of like the slug line. &#8216;Israel, Where Are You? &#8212; While the Arab world joins together in a call for democracy, Israel\u2019s democracy&#8230;\u2019 (laughing) Oh, my gosh. Israel\u2019s democracy is unraveling? (laughing)<\/p>\n<p>This tells me that it is NOT democracy what is happening over there. This tells me that these uprisings in Libya and Egypt are not about democracy. If al-Jazeera is calling them &#8216;democracy movements,\u2019 they are not. It\u2019s just that simple. Next al-Jazeera story: &#8216;Israel Sole Enemy of Lebanon: Iranian Envoy &#8212; Iran\u2019s Ambassador to Lebanon Ghazanfar Roknabadi has underscored the importance of mutual understanding between Lebanese Parties against Beirut\u2019s &#8216;arch foe,\u2019 Tel Aviv. Roknabadi urged all Lebanese groups and political factions on Tuesday to reach an understanding and spare no efforts to confront the Israeli regime.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>&#8221;U.S. Policy on Nuclear Iran Underscores Bias Towards Israel.&#8221; That\u2019s our third al-Jazeera story. &#8216;United States is affirming that it certainly pays to be a nuclear power you get things done on your terms.\u2019 (laughing) &#8216;With more than TWO HUNDREDS [sic] nuclear weapons and the capacity to deliver them against its enemies or use them to buttress its policies, Israel refuses to join the Non-Proliferation Treaty or to open its nuclear facilities for International Atomic Energy OFFICE inspection,\u2019 and the next story from al-Jazeera. &#8216;Israel, Die!\u2019 (laughing) Well, Mrs. Clinton says al-Jazeera is real news (laughing) unlike the news in America. I\u2019m not making it up. That\u2019s all here. We\u2019ll link to it. &#8216;Israel, where are you?\u2019 (laughing) &#8216;Israel\u2019s democracy\u2019s unraveling.\u2019 <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: The latest story on what\u2019s going on in Libya, a Reuters story: Rebels on the ground are begging George Bush to do something about it!
