This is after Baton Rouge and what happened there.\u00a0 And, you know, it sounded like he almost got there again, he couldn\u2019t help himself, he started blaming rhetoric, and he started telling and asking everybody to tone down the rhetoric.<\/p>\n<p>But you know he doesn\u2019t mean people like Al Sharpton, and you know he doesn\u2019t mean people like Black Lives Matter.\u00a0 He honors those people.\u00a0 He brings \u2019em to the White House.\u00a0 He conducts seminars with them and so forth.\u00a0 He praises them as being better community organizers than he ever was.\u00a0 And then, on the same day the president said that police can make the job of being a cop a lot safer by admitting their failures.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_124898\" class=\"img_middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Obama-Lied.jpg\" align=\"middle\" \/>&#8220;America\u2019s police will be safer when they admit they have a problem, Pres. Obama declared on Sunday at a bilateral event with the prime minister of Spain in Madrid. Fielding a question on Sunday, July 10, about the violence against police in Dallas, Texas last week, which left five officers dead, Obama said police officers will be safer once they acknowledge their failures: &#8216;There are legitimate issues that have been raised, and there\u2019s data and evidence to back up the concerns that are being expressed by these protesters.'&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I mean, he fed it!\u00a0 You know, this is the thing about this that I don\u2019t think anybody really wants to get down to the nitty-gritty on.\u00a0 Then there\u2019s the story in the Washington Post:\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/news\/post-politics\/wp\/2016\/07\/17\/obama-pleads-with-presidential-candidates-not-to-politicize-the-police-shootings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">&#8220;Obama Pleads With Presidential Candidates Not to Politicize the Police Shootings.&#8221;<\/a>\u00a0 I mean, all of this stuff falls under the category: &#8220;Are you kidding me?&#8221;\u00a0 Let\u2019s look at President Obama.\u00a0 For example, let\u2019s take a look and analyze here.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_124894\" class=\"img_right\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/ObamaCops_large.jpg\" align=\"right\" \/>When there is unrest in the Middle East, who does Obama back?\u00a0 He backs the Islamic faction.\u00a0 Exactly.\u00a0 When there\u2019s unrest at home, who does Obama back? He backs the most radical leftist factions.\u00a0 In Egypt, the secular military took out the Muslim Brotherhood; Obama backed the Muslim Brotherhood.\u00a0 In Iran, the Iranian people rose up in what was called a Green Revolution. Obama backed the mullahs and then made a nuclear deal with them, granting them $150 billion of unfrozen assets via the end of sanctions and the green light to developing nuclear weapons.<\/p>\n<p>In Iraq, the US military provided stability after a long war to secure a secular-leaning government.\u00a0 Obama pulled up stakes. He pulls out, left Iraq vulnerable to Islamists within and vulnerable to Iran next door &#8212; and hello, ISIS.\u00a0 In Turkey, the military attempted an Egypt-like coup.\u00a0 You know what that was about?\u00a0 You know, the Turkey situation, you might think, &#8220;Rush, that\u2019s so removed from what\u2019s going on; it\u2019s not relevant.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It really is in some ways, because people don\u2019t know what Turkey\u2019s normal, natural predilection is versus what\u2019s happening.\u00a0 This prime minister, Erdogan, is trying to take Turkey into unfettered Sharia land.\u00a0 He is trying to make it Islamic first, second, and third nation.\u00a0 They\u2019re a member of NATO.\u00a0 They have always been known as a secular nation, Islamist dominated. But that\u2019s never been their identity, and Erdogan&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>There are some people who think he may have orchestrated that coup in order to be able to get rid of every one of his military and police and diplomatic opponents, \u2019cause he\u2019s purged something like 15 or 20,000 people after this coup.\u00a0 They\u2019re gone.\u00a0 Any opposition.\u00a0 And in Turkey, military job review and performance review and promotions with accompanying raises always happens on August 1st.\u00a0 You didn\u2019t know that, did you?\u00a0 Well, it does.\u00a0 And the military launches this coup. \u00a0It was not the first.<\/p>\n<p>What was the most recent coup, 2002?\u00a0 It was 1997, 2002. Now the military launches this coup against Erdogan.\u00a0 It didn\u2019t ever have a chance and now people thinking maybe Erdogan actually sponsored this whole thing to make it look like he had tamped down a serious opposition effort.\u00a0 But now he\u2019s got smooth sailing towards taking Turkey into primo Islamist supremacism and away from the secular identity that it has always had.\u00a0 Who did Obama back?\u00a0 Erdogan.\u00a0 Okay.<\/p>\n<p>Here at home, Obama always sides with the most radical leftists.\u00a0 Black Lives Matter over the cops.\u00a0 Occupy Wall Street over the Tea Party.\u00a0 Illegal immigrants over citizens.\u00a0 Refugees over citizens.\u00a0 Planned Parenthood\u2019s baby butchers over the rule of law.\u00a0 Bureaucrats over doctors.\u00a0 Teachers unions over students.\u00a0 We\u2019re dealing here with a guy who is a radical leftist, divisive by choice.\u00a0 It\u2019s how he advances his vision of transformation.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"MRC TV video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mrctv.org\/embed\/168121\" width=\"585\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>And yet he\u2019s sitting there at 56% approval in the polls.\u00a0 The Drive-By Media was able to take George Bush down to the low thirties with four to five years of daily pummeling on every aspect of his presidency. Leading with Iraq, followed by torture, followed by Abu Ghraib, followed by Afghanistan, followed by the War on Terror, followed by the economic collapse. Virtually everything that was going on wrong was pointed and laid right at the feet of George W. Bush.<\/p>\n<p>But here it\u2019s the Limbaugh Theorem in full force.\u00a0 Obama is perceived to have no responsibility for anything.\u00a0 He\u2019s perceived to have no cause effect on anything that\u2019s happening.\u00a0 It\u2019s thought by a majority of Americans that all of the stuff going wrong is Bush and that poor old Obama has been doing everything he can! He\u2019s swimming upstream, swimming against the tide, doing everything he can to fix these horrible problems for social justice and whatever.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_124899\" class=\"img_middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Limbaugh-Theroem_Obama-on-Baton-Rouge.jpg\" align=\"middle\" \/>But there are these rascally Republicans in opposition and the conservative media and the Tea Party and the Trumpists and everybody trying to stop our first African-American president from his appointment with destiny, when in fact he is the architect of this decline.\u00a0 And yet nothing attaches to him! No accountability whatsoever.\u00a0 The media hasn\u2019t hit him on anything like they did Bush, and it wasn\u2019t expected that they would.\u00a0 I\u2019m just illustrating how this is done. It took \u2019em five years to take Bush down to the thirties.<\/p>\n<p>With all of this&#8230; Folks, it\u2019s stunning.\u00a0 Every terror attack that you can remember here and abroad &#8212; the plummeting US economy, 94 million Americans not working, LGBT bathrooms, gay marriage, you name it &#8212; 56% approval.\u00a0 Now, what does that tell you?\u00a0 What does it tell you about the people of this country and what they know? What does it tell you about the people of this country and what they think?\u00a0 What does it tell you about where we\u2019re headed as a country?<\/p>\n<p>I mean, if all of this can generate a 50% and more? If all of this can generate a 56% approval rating, I shudder to think what real progress would result, what kind of approval rating would result from real progress.\u00a0 I mean, this guy\u2019s calls for unity ring so hollow, this speech yesterday that he gave.\u00a0 We\u2019ll get into that a little bit more detail.\u00a0 A lot to do today, folks. I\u2019ve been away two days.\u00a0 We\u2019ve got the Mike Pence selection and the Republican convention starting today.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_124888\" class=\"img_middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/DallasQuote-070816-B.jpg\" align=\"middle\" \/>There\u2019s all kinds of stuff &#8212; and, as always, I can\u2019t get to it all during the opening monologue. So that\u2019s why we\u2019re here for three hours.\u00a0 But the country, to many people, it\u2019s falling apart.\u00a0 Do you realize, in Baton Rouge, the Reuters story today is they\u2019re still seeking a motive? Still seeking a motive! Police say not sure.\u00a0 Other headlines&#8230; If you go to all of the various news sites from Twitter to Facebook to Yahoo &#8212; all the online news sites that people click on, all the top stories news sites &#8212; you know what the headline is?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.unionleader.com\/crime\/Three-police-officers-shot-dead-in-ambush-style-attack-in-Baton-Rouge-La.-07172016\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">&#8220;Marine Kills Three Policemen in Baton Rouge.&#8221;\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>It is not &#8220;former Marine,&#8221; it is not &#8220;former Nation of Islam member,&#8221; not &#8220;former African-American radical.&#8221;\u00a0 No, no, no, no! &#8220;Marine Kills Three Policemen in Baton Rouge.&#8221;\u00a0 That he was a former Marine is the most important thing, not that he was a former member of the Nation of Islam. (chuckles) Can you imagine if somebody had been a better of the Klan and shot up something like this? Can you imagine what the headlines would be?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Klan Members Kills Three Whatever in Baton Rouge.&#8221;\u00a0 This is just how it happens.\u00a0 And now we\u2019ve got Obama out there saying the police can make the job of being a cop a lot safer by admitting their failures.\u00a0 What does that tell you?\u00a0 You may say, &#8220;But, Rush, he didn\u2019t say that yesterday!\u00a0 I saw his speech.&#8221; I know he didn\u2019t say it yesterday.\u00a0 He said it June 10th. He said it a different venue, different time.\u00a0 Yesterday was the first time he actually sounded like he was pro-police.\u00a0 But he couldn\u2019t help himself.<\/p>\n<p>He dialed that back and still had to blame it all on &#8220;rhetoric.&#8221;\u00a0 He wouldn\u2019t go anywhere near blaming the shooter.\u00a0 He wouldn\u2019t go anywhere near&#8230; It took everything he had, I\u2019m certain, to not blame guns.\u00a0 I mean, you know how often that probably had to be taken out of the teleprompter? His speechwriter would put it in there or Obama would put it in there, &#8220;I gotta say guns!&#8221; The speechwriter\u2019d take it out. &#8220;No, not today. Not appropriate.&#8221; I wonder how many times &#8220;guns&#8221; was taken out of that prompter yesterday before he went out and made his address.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_124893\" class=\"img_middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/BaltimoreMJM-5-5.jpg\" align=\"middle\" \/>Anyway, it\u2019s frustrating, I know, to everybody.\u00a0 It is maddening, and it\u2019s confusing. \u00a0Like I say, all of this is generating a 56% approval rating.\u00a0 And it doesn\u2019t make sense, unless certain other things are taking place that makes sense like a stupid public,; an uninformed public; an uncaring public, a misinformed public. It\u2019s probably a combination of all three of those things, but I\u2019m just telling you here: The Freddie Gray cop, the fourth cop&#8230; Was this the cop that was thought to have the best chance of getting a conviction or was that the last one?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Circuit Judge Barry G. Williams acquit[ed] Lt. Brian Rice of all charges related to Gray\u2019s arrest and death. Williams cleared Rice, 42, of involuntary manslaughter, reckless endangerment and misconduct in office in a downtown Baltimore courtroom on [this] morning. The judge had dismissed a second-degree assault charge at the trial\u2019s midpoint, and prosecutors dropped a second misconduct charge at the start.&#8221; That tells you how ridiculously overcharged Officer Rice was, just like all the other defendants in this case.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Rice selected a bench trial rather than a jury trial, putting his legal fate in [the judge\u2019s] hands.&#8221; Reckless endangerment, negligence&#8230; I\u2019ve heard those terms. Gross negligence. (interruption) Oh, yeah, that was the Hillary&#8230; (interruption) Yeah, yeah.\u00a0 That&#8230; (interruption) Yeah.\u00a0 Yeah.\u00a0 See, there\u2019s nothing to see with Hillary on this. It\u2019s just none of it makes any sense.\u00a0 People look at these things and the wrong people always appear to be getting away with it, which ought to light up the Republican convention this week because that\u2019s one of the reasons it has taken the shape that it has.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 You know, the president of the United States pleads with presidential candidates not to politicize the police shootings.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;President Obama issued a simple and impassioned plea for calm and understanding on Sunday in the aftermath of the second police shooting this month and just ahead of the Republican and Democratic political conventions. &#8216;We don\u2019t need inflammatory rhetoric,\u2019 Obama said. &#8216;We don\u2019t need careless accusations thrown around to score political points or to advance an agenda.'&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_124895\" class=\"img_middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/CopsObama-Divide-Conquer-Police-2.jpg\" align=\"middle\" \/>(imitating Obama) Not especially after I\u2019ve already succeeded wildly by doing it.\u00a0 Nobody else needs to be able to come along and do it now since I\u2019ve been able to benefit it from it myself.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That is why it is so important that everyone &#8230; right now focus on words and actions that can unite this country rather than divide it further. &#8230; We don\u2019t need careless accusations thrown around to score political points or to advance an agenda. We need to temper our words and open our hearts. All of us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Oh, it sounds so wonderful, except he\u2019s prime perp on all of this.\u00a0 I made mention of something last week.\u00a0 I want to just repeat it.\u00a0 One of the things, not the only, but one of the flash points for all that\u2019s happening now is the lie. A lie that has been known, a lie that wasn\u2019t knowingly spread, a lie whose flames were knowingly fanned by people no less than Barack Obama and others ranking high in the Democrat Party, and that is &#8220;hands up, don\u2019t shoot.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The story coming out of Ferguson, Missouri, &#8220;hands up, don\u2019t shoot,&#8221; that the Gentle Giant was walking innocently down the street on an idyllic Saturday afternoon in August thinking passionately about his first year away at college.\u00a0 Ahem.\u00a0 All of a sudden was gunned down by a racist white cop who went hunting for a young black male.\u00a0 And what was this man\u2019s grievance?\u00a0 What was his alleged crime?\u00a0 He was walking in the street, not the sidewalk.\u00a0 And he put his hands up, he said, &#8220;Don\u2019t shoot, don\u2019t shoot.&#8221; And the cop fired, and the Gentle Giant was dead.<\/p>\n<p>Every word of that is a lie, and yet it has spread, it did spread, and it has become part of the information packet for Black Lives Matter, the New Black Panther Party.\u00a0 Imagine if the president of the United States had done a national address and knocked down every falsehood of that, instead of giving it life. Instead of sending Eric Holder out there to make it look like they didn\u2019t trust the local grand jury and their results, what if the president had simply said, &#8220;Folks, you\u2019re believing stuff that didn\u2019t happen.&#8221; People believe the president for whatever reason, no matter who he happens to be, and he didn\u2019t say that.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 So here\u2019s what I referred to at the very beginning of the program, the Reuters dispatch from this morning.\u00a0 &#8220;Baton Rouge Gunman\u2019s Motive Remains Unclear After Police Deaths.&#8221;\u00a0 And then they talk about how he\u2019s a former Marine and&#8230; I\u2019m telling you, low-information people, if they even access this, that\u2019s what they know about the guy, is he\u2019s a former Marine. What they\u2019re gonna come away thinking is, &#8220;What is our military doing to people?\u00a0 Our military is turning them into trained killers!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They come home, and they don\u2019t know how to adjust.&#8221;\u00a0 They\u2019re making movies out of that premise, by the way.\u00a0 Oh, yes, my friends, movies and TV shows about arriving veterans returning home from the theater of battle and not knowing how to cope anymore.\u00a0 They\u2019ve completely lost the ability.\u00a0 They go on murderous rampages or they commit suicide or what have you.\u00a0 It\u2019s become an ongoing meme, a narrative in movies and television shows.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_124902\" class=\"img_right\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/BatonRougeShooterSHORT_large.jpg\" align=\"right\" \/>So quite naturally if you\u2019re a low-information voter and you happen to see the top line, top news stories at your favorite online social media sites you\u2019re gonna see, &#8220;Former Marine Shoots Three Policemen in Baton Rouge.&#8221;\u00a0 You might not learn that he\u2019s also a former member of the Nation of Islam, and you wouldn\u2019t learn 90% of what\u2019s relevant to know about the guy, and you would &#8212; if you were able to find out those things &#8212; learn his motive.\u00a0 But just for the sake of you knowing, here\u2019s Reuters\u2019 take on this.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Authorities sought to learn more on Monday about a decorated ex-U.S. Marine sergeant who killed three police officers in Baton Rouge, some two weeks after police there shot dead a black man, sparking nationwide protests including one shattered by the massacre of five Dallas policemen.&#8221; What an opening sentence!\u00a0 Folks, you have to understand, the vast majority of people do not read this with the discernment that you have been trained now to consume news.<\/p>\n<p>Most people don\u2019t have that.<\/p>\n<p>They just see this and say, &#8220;Holy cow! Decorated Marine? He must have been driven nuts by the military, comes home, and shoots three cops. Holy cow!&#8221; And he might have even been justified \u2019cause the cops shot a black guy two weeks earlier.\u00a0 He\u2019s a Marine!\u00a0 He was a military man!\u00a0 He might have been justified in doing this.\u00a0 &#8220;The suspect, dressed in black and armed with a rifle, was shot dead on Sunday morning in a gunfight with police who converged on the scene of a confrontation that Mayor Kip Holden said began as an &#8216;ambush-style\u2019 attack,&#8221; and then it provides the details of the story.<\/p>\n<p>But they don\u2019t get much more about the shooters until much later. &#8220;Police did not identify the suspect but a US government official told Reuters he was Gavin Long, of Kansas City, Missouri. Long, who was black, was reported to have attacked police on his 29th birthday.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It\u2019s hard to know what his motivations were,\u2019 Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards&#8221; said.\u00a0\u00a0 Yeah, we\u2019re looking really, really hard here!<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re trying to see if he had any Tea Party affiliations &#8212; you know, what talk radio he might have been listening to.\u00a0 He didn\u2019t say any of that but, of course, this is what is normally offered.\u00a0 The Daily Caller: <a href=\"http:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2016\/07\/17\/baton-rouge-shooter-gavin-eugene-long-was-nation-of-islam-member-railed-against-crackers-on-youtube-channel-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">&#8220;Baton Rouge Shooter Gavin Eugene Long Was Nation of Islam Member, Railed Against &#8216;Crackers\u2019 on YouTube Channel,&#8221; <\/a>and Micah X. Johnson was a former Nation of Islam member.\u00a0 Not that you needed to look hard to find out but when you hear people start calling white people &#8220;devils,&#8221; that\u2019s right out of the Calypso Louie lexicon.<\/p>\n<p>It may even be out of the Elijah Muhammad lexicon.\u00a0 &#8220;A YouTube account operated by Gavin Eugene Long and discovered by The Daily Caller reveals key insight into what might have motivated the 29-year-old black man who killed three Baton Rouge police officers Sunday morning. Videos on Long\u2019s account show that he was a former Nation of Islam member. He also ranted against &#8216;crackers\u2019 and made references to Alton Sterling, the black man killed by police in Baton Rouge on July 5.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Other information about Long shows that the Kansas City native, who CBS reported was honorably discharged from the Marines in 2010, went by the name Cosmo Ausar Setepenra. In one video filmed from Houston and posted to Long\u2019s YouTube account on July 12, the suspected guman [sic] discusses being in the Marines and reaching the rank of E-5. &#8230; In the video, Long met with several men he seemed to not have known prior to their encounter. He promotes a book he wrote and discusses black liberation ideology.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8216;I wrote it for my dark-skinned brothers,\u2019 Long said of his book. &#8216;If you look at all the rebels like Black Panthers, Huey P. Newton, Malcolm X &#8230; Elijah Muhammad, they was light-skinned. But we know how hard y\u2019all got it,\u2019 Long continued. &#8230; In the video Long is heard lament&#8230;&#8221; Remember, now, Reuters can\u2019t find a motive.\u00a0 &#8220;In the video Long is heard lamented [sic] &#8216;working for the white people.\u2019 He encouraged one man riding in his vehicle as he filmed using a body camera to shop only at black-owned businesses.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He brought up a hypothetical scenario in which a family member who wanted to buy carpet was forced to buy from non-black&#8230;&#8221; The guy was a racist, folks.\u00a0 And since the president says we need to stop the &#8220;rhetoric,&#8221; we need to start asking: What is happening to these people?\u00a0 How does this happen?\u00a0 Who\u2019s teaching this?\u00a0 Who\u2019s promoting this?\u00a0 This isn\u2019t just happening.\u00a0 Human beings are sponges when they are born.\u00a0 Human beings are not capable of anything.\u00a0 It\u2019s the only mammal in the&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>You look at any other mammal that\u2019s born. A baby horse, a colt, is born able to walk that instant.\u00a0 In six weeks, most mammals flee mom and dad and are on their own somewhere.\u00a0 That\u2019s it.\u00a0 Elsewhere in the mammal kingdom there is no child rearing, there is no development, there is no upbringing, there is no raising.\u00a0 The human being is the only mammal that requires all of that to become something other than an animal &#8212; and it is crucial, the input a human being gets.\u00a0 So, you know, you can argue about what the natural disposition of a human being is.<\/p>\n<p>Without any upbringing, any child rearing, any raising, what will the person tend to be may be hard to predict. But we do know that they are programmable. We are programmable, and the evidence is clear that these people\u2019s minds are being poisoned.\u00a0 And I\u2019m telling you, it\u2019s coming from the top.\u00a0 The president of the United States, I don\u2019t care what you think of him, there\u2019s something that you have to realize about all of them. It\u2019s about the office, actually.\u00a0 They are the single greatest source authority perceived by the public in the world.<\/p>\n<p>When the president says something, it is almost universally accepted.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_124903\" class=\"img_middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/ObamaBlah-Blah-BW.jpg\" align=\"middle\" \/>And even if it isn\u2019t accepted, the natural reaction is not to distrust the president.\u00a0 I\u2019m talking about average, ordinary nonpolitically oriented people.\u00a0 Sometimes we &#8212; I include you and me in this &#8212; make the mistake of assuming that because we are as interested and as informed as we are, that everybody else is.\u00a0 And they aren\u2019t.\u00a0 And there are certain things about the presidency that people naturally trust, that they naturally respect, no matter who holds the office.<\/p>\n<p>As I say, it took the media five years to destroy this for George W. Bush.\u00a0 And they haven\u2019t spent a day trying to discredit Barack Hussein O.\u00a0 It took them five years.\u00a0 You might say it took \u2019em three, but the point is it took outside effort. It took a consistent, day-in-and-day-out, 24\/7 effort by the media and the Democrat Party to destroy the image and the presidency of George W. Bush.\u00a0 And it was made to order that Bush sought not to respond to any of it.\u00a0 So all of the allegations went unchallenged.<\/p>\n<p>So I\u2019m telling you, my point here is when the president stands up and rips into cops, when he says these protesters have legitimate grievances, when he invites Black Lives Matter to the White House and praises what they\u2019re doing, it sends serious signals to people. It sends serious messages to people.\u00a0 And he sits up there and warns everybody against all the dangerous rhetoric? I know who he\u2019s got in mind when he\u2019s talking like this.\u00a0 Don\u2019t doubt for a moment that I know who he\u2019s talking about and exactly the kind of things he\u2019s talking about.<\/p>\n<p>But this man is a bigger agent provocateur that anybody else in this country could ever be simply because of the power of his office.\u00a0 So he brings these Black Lives Matter people up there, who are promoting and applauding and proving all of this.\u00a0 And that\u2019s in public.\u00a0 Privately we don\u2019t know what kind of poison\u2019s out there.\u00a0 We can only imagine.\u00a0 And it gets the sanction of approval from the highest office in the land.\u00a0 Loretta Lynch goes out after Dallas and says, &#8220;You protesters? You were right! We\u2019re gonna do everything we can to protect you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This is in the aftermath of five Dallas cops killed.\u00a0 What do you think people are gonna hear, if they begin the day with built-in grievances that they\u2019ve already been taught?\u00a0 Race relations are worse today than they have been at any time in our lives, folks!\u00a0 There\u2019s a reason for that.\u00a0 And it is not that American culture has become more polluted in racist ways.\u00a0 It isn\u2019t that at all.\u00a0 So many advances have taken place, so much progress has been made. It doesn\u2019t mean that there aren\u2019t vestiges of racism.\u00a0 There\u2019s all kinds of Isms all over the place.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_124904\" class=\"img_middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/DallasDPD-David-Brown-C.jpg\" align=\"middle\" \/>Everybody gets mistreated by somebody at some point in their lives.\u00a0 Some of it\u2019s institutional, some of it\u2019s individual, but nobody has a bed of roses as a life.\u00a0 But the point is we\u2019ve made great, great, great progress.\u00a0 But here\u2019s Obama lamenting all that\u2019s gone wrong, &#8220;Fifty years after the Civil Rights Act was passed,&#8221; he said one day last week.\u00a0 Make no mistake how people hear what he says.\u00a0 &#8220;Black Lies Murder.\u00a0 Black Lies Kill.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Now, probably people are gonna say, &#8220;How dare he!&#8221; But they can run around and they can say, &#8220;Bush lied; people died.&#8221; They can say that all day long, and they\u2019re gonna be applauded.\u00a0 They can say whatever they want to say, be it factually right, factually incorrect, doesn\u2019t matter, because they are said to have a legitimate grievance &#8212; and who pronounces the legitimacy of the grievance?\u00a0 Why, the American left, the Democrat Party, which seeks to profit from all of this.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: It\u2019s Moe somewhere in Ohio.\u00a0 Great to have you, sir.\u00a0 You\u2019re up first today.\u00a0 Welcome.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:\u00a0 How you doing, Mr. Limbaugh?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 Fine, sir, thank you.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:\u00a0 Here we go.\u00a0 What do you want to start with?\u00a0 Let\u2019s start with the (unintelligible) Black Lives Matter.\u00a0 I don\u2019t know how you guys can think that\u2019s a hate group.\u00a0 That\u2019s not a hate group.\u00a0 And the reason why so many people support that is because the Klan is still running around.\u00a0 Nobody gets to talk about that.\u00a0 That\u2019s what\u2019s got everybody pissed off.<\/p>\n<p>Everybody scared about this ISIS, ISIS that.\u00a0 But the Klan\u2019s been here for how many years, and it\u2019s still running around doing what they want to do, and nobody cares about it?\u00a0 There\u2019s been 90 people lynched since 2013.\u00a0 Ninety.\u00a0 And there was one last week that they found in the park, they\u2019re trying to say he did it to himself.\u00a0 That\u2019s how people don\u2019t be caring about a lot of stuff that be going on, man, \u2019cause they\u2019re pissed off, and you guys go out of town or go out of the country to go get ISIS &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 Wait, wait, Moe, hang on a minute.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:\u00a0 Right here in the United States, right here.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 You are illustrating the very depth and impossibility of the problem that we face as a society.\u00a0 All right.\u00a0 You must be talking about Chicago when you talk about these 90 lynchings that have happened since 2013.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_124906\" class=\"img_right\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/BlackLivesMatterShort.jpg\" align=\"right\" \/>CALLER:\u00a0 No, I\u2019m not talking about Chicago.\u00a0 I\u2019m talking about the one that was in Louisiana last week.

It doesn\u2019t fit with what you have been told that gets you all revved up.\u00a0 Obama knows it isn\u2019t true but he runs around and feeds people like you keeping you fever pitched, loaded for bear, whatever, rather than trying to calm everybody down with the truth and the facts that it isn\u2019t nearly as bad out there as you think it is.<\/p>\n<p>That would be the responsible thing for any president to do, to try to calm things down, not pour gasoline on them, but Obama has direct ties to the spread of this narrative that the cops are committing murder against blacks.\u00a0 It was July 7th I think Obama was in Poland shortly before the five officers were assassinated in Dallas, and Obama purposely misled people about policing and race.<\/p>\n<p>He charged that police nationwide were preying on blacks because of the color of their skin, and he rolled out a bunch of junk statistics to prove that the criminal justice is racist, such as blacks were arrested at twice the rate of whites.\u00a0 They get sentences almost 10% longer.\u00a0 What do you think\u2019s gonna happen when he spreads this kind of nonsense?\u00a0 He leaves the context out of it.\u00a0 This is why I say that Obama bears a responsibility for fanning these flames.\u00a0 There\u2019s no question that he does, but I\u2019m never gonna be able to convince you.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 Hey, folks, do you remember the DC sniper, the guy that was driving around at random shooting people? They first thought that he was driving a plain white van, right?\u00a0 It turned out that he was driving a Pontiac of some kind and his accomplice was in the trunk and had a hole in the lid of the trunk and the accomplice was killing people.\u00a0 Anyway, John Allen Muhammad was a former member of the United States military, and he was&#8230; By the way, in retrospect, he was militant Islamist and had been toked up for quite&#8230; &#8220;Toked up&#8221; is wrong.\u00a0 He\u2019d been stoked.<\/p>\n<p>His the fires had been stoked with hatred for a long time.\u00a0 But the point is, I remember the Drive-By Media going to Donald Rumsfeld, who was the secretary of defense: &#8220;Do you feel in any way responsible for what has happened here, for taking this innocent young American serviceman and turning him into this vicious domestic killer?&#8221;\u00a0 Do you think we would ever get a question of&#8230; Who is our defense secretary? What is this clown\u2019s name? (interruption) Ash Carter.\u00a0 I get him and Jeh Johnson confused.\u00a0 Jeh Johnson\u2019s where?\u00a0 The guy spells &#8220;Jay&#8221; J<strong>&#8211;<\/strong>E-H.\u00a0 I keep wanting to say &#8220;Jeh.&#8221;\u00a0 Jeh Johnson. Who names himself Jeh?<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, he\u2019s Homeland Security, right?\u00a0 Ash Carter.\u00a0 So you got &#8220;Juh&#8221; and Ash running Homeland and DOD.\u00a0 You think they\u2019d ever go anybody over there and ask them, &#8220;Hey, do you feel responsible for these two wackos running around and shooting the cops?&#8221;\u00a0 &#8220;Why, would we?&#8221; &#8220;Well (chuckles), they\u2019re great decorated Marines, the media\u2019s telling us! Are you turning our recruits into domestic murderers?&#8221; OMG! Do you think they would ever ask that question?\u00a0 I\u2019m telling you, Rumsfeld was asked that question about John Allen Muhammad.<\/p>\n<p>So the media is out there thinking they\u2019re giving these people a pass by claiming they\u2019re ex-military.\u00a0 Well, who\u2019s military is it?\u00a0 It isn\u2019t Rumsfeld\u2019s anywmore, and it isn\u2019t G. W. Bush\u2019s! It\u2019s Barack Hussein O\u2019s and Ash Carter\u2019s.\u00a0 Now, both of these guys, Micah Johnson X. &#8212; whatever &#8212; and Huey Long here &#8212; Gavin, Gavin Long. These guys were former Nation of Islam! I mean, that\u2019s not an innocent, like, animal protection league.<\/p>\n<p>The Nation of Islam doesn\u2019t like white people, and they\u2019re led by a man known as the Calypso Louie, &#8220;Minister Farrakhan,&#8221; who, by the way&#8230; Should I point this out?\u00a0 All right, by the way, welcome back, Rush Limbaugh here at the Excellence in Broadcasting Network.\u00a0 Guess who honored at one time the Reverend Farrakhan, known affectionately here as Calypso Louie?\u00a0 That would be the Reverend Wright of (impression) &#8220;America\u2019s chickenssss have come home to roost!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_124908\" class=\"img_middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/ObamaSharptonPIX.jpg\" align=\"middle\" \/>Obama\u2019s pastor, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright. His &#8220;Trumpet&#8221; magazine gave Calypso Louie Farrakhan its lifetime achievement award, the Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. Trumpeter Award.\u00a0 That\u2019s the name of the award.\u00a0 Lifetime achievement, Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. Trumpeter Award saying that Farrakhan &#8220;truly epitomized greatness.&#8221;\u00a0 And what did Obama say about Reverend Wright?\u00a0 He said, &#8220;I could no more disown him than I could disown the black community or my grandmother who&#8221; whatever he said.<\/p>\n<p>So Obama\u2019s pastor cherishes Calypso Louie Farrakhan, and Obama cherishes Reverend Wright.\u00a0 Remember when the New Black Panthers put a $10,000 bounty on George Zimmerman?\u00a0 That\u2019s what we\u2019re told gave birth to the Black Lives Matter movement, was when Zimmerman was acquitted. Remember the New Black Panthers put a $10,000 bounty on his head?\u00a0 Did anybody at the Obama DOJ or did Obama condemn it?\u00a0 Not a word, folks. (interruption) What do you mean, &#8220;That\u2019s because&#8221;? (interruption) Because why? (interruption)<\/p>\n<p>Because if he\u2019d had a son he\u2019d look like Trayvon Martin?\u00a0 Well, okay, if Obama&#8230; If you want to play that game: If Obama had a son, would it be Black Lives Matter, would it be New Black Panther Party? Which would it be?\u00a0 Or would he be LGBT activism?\u00a0 What would Obama\u2019s son be?\u00a0 I\u2019m just telling you, when the New Black Panther Party put a $10,000 bounty on George Zimmerman found not guilty by a court &#8212; with a you know, biased prosecutor in that case, too, trying to nail Zimmerman.<\/p>\n<p>When he was acquitted, they put a $10,000 bounty on his head. Was there any condemnation?\u00a0 I\u2019m telling you, this stuff matters.\u00a0 When the New Black Panthers were engaging in voter intimidation in Philadelphia and Eric Holder drops the case, saying, &#8220;The days of this department putting my people in jail are over,&#8221; or people of color, some such thing.\u00a0 What\u2019s the message that gets sent?\u00a0 So back to our first caller here, old Moe here.\u00a0 By the way, we can\u2019t find any lynching stories from 2013, 90 of them or five of them. (interruption) Cop killings? (interruption) The cop killings are lynchings?\u00a0 (interruption)<\/p>\n<p>Right. (interruption) Cops killing black people are modern day lynching is what he meant.\u00a0 Right.\u00a0 Right.\u00a0 Somehow he got on the Klan in there. He said Klan\u2019s running around left and right.\u00a0 I thought Robert Byrd died.\u00a0 Didn\u2019t he pass away?\u00a0 So I don\u2019t&#8230; Bill Clinton was at the funeral.\u00a0 Bill Clinton spoke very highly of him, and even made excuses for his days as a Klansman, remember that?\u00a0 Bill Clinton made excuses.

Young Michael Brown did not put his hands up, and was not shot in the back.&#8221; Imagine the power of that.\u00a0 Why wouldn\u2019t Obama want to tamp this down?\u00a0 Why would Obama want to exacerbate this?\u00a0 Well, here\u2019s Heather Mac Donald: &#8220;President Barack Obama bears direct responsibility for the lethal spread of that narrative. In a speech from Poland just hours before five officers were assassinated in Dallas on July 7, Obama misled the nation about policing and race, charging officers nationwide with preying on blacks because of the color of their skin.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_124911\" class=\"img_right\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/ObamaKingSHORT.jpg\" align=\"right\" \/>He did.\u00a0 He charged them with that!\u00a0 If you\u2019re a young black and you\u2019ve not been told the truth about anything, and you hear that from the president, what are you gonna believe?\u00a0 You\u2019re going to believe the president.\u00a0 He has the authority because of the weight of it office.\u00a0 &#8220;Obama rolled out a litany of junk statistics to prove that the criminal justice system is racist. Blacks were arrested at twice the rate of whites, he complained, and get sentences almost 10% longer than whites for the same crime.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Look, Obama said this a couple of days before the five cops in Dallas are assassinated.\u00a0 When the president says this kind of stuff, he\u2019s lighting a match!\u00a0 When the president says these kinds of things, he\u2019s encouraging the actions that follow &#8212; and don\u2019t for a minute think he doesn\u2019t know it.\u00a0 &#8220;Missing from Obama\u2019s address was any mention of the massive racial differences in criminal offending and criminal records that fully account for arrest rates and sentence lengths. (Blacks, for example, commit homicide at eight times the rate of whites and Hispanics combined&#8230;)&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s stop there for just a moment.\u00a0 Just saying that is probably throwing gasoline on the fire even though it happens to be the truth. Blacks commit homicide at eight times the rate of whites and Hispanics combined.\u00a0 They are only 13, or, what, 16% of the population.\u00a0 Blacks commit homicide at 11 to 12 times the rate of whites.\u00a0 Throw Hispanics out, and it\u2019s 11 to 12 times the rate whites kill people.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Instead, Obama chalked up the disparities to &#8216;biases, some conscious and unconscious that have to be rooted out . . . \u00a0across our criminal justice system.'&#8221;\u00a0 And it\u2019s not bias that\u2019s producing these numbers.\u00a0 It\u2019s the numbers!\u00a0 And of the black homicide, the percentage of black victims killed by black perpetrators dwarfs, dwarfs the number of black people killed by police officers, of any race.<\/p>\n<p>But I\u2019ll tell you how this stuff spreads.\u00a0 I watch a TV show now and then called Murder in the First.\u00a0 The show is obviously filmed months in advance of airing.\u00a0 I think they\u2019re on episode three or episode four now.\u00a0 In this show, a black perpetrator is fleeing the scene of an attempted apprehension by the cops.\u00a0 The cops are looking for a suspect in the murder of a black athlete, by the way, at a nightclub.\u00a0 And they get a report that the suspect is at this address, so the cop and his partner, a white woman and a black guy, head off to the address.\u00a0 And there\u2019s a black guy in there who leaves and ducks out a window when he sees the cops.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/War-Cops-Attack-Order-Everyone\/dp\/1594038759?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=1594038759&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;redirect=true&amp;tag=theofficiw0c2-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img id=\"eZObject_124910\" class=\"img_middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/DallasWarOnCops.jpg\" align=\"middle\" \/><\/a>The natural thing is a-ha, we got our guy, they give chase, they round a corner, the suspect tries pulling a gun out of the back of his pocket, turned to fire the cop, the cop shoots and kills him.\u00a0 Black cop kills black victim on this TV show.\u00a0 They suspend the black cop pending an investigation.\u00a0 When he\u2019s cleared, couldn\u2019t find the gun at first, the kid took the gun.\u00a0 They were gonna nail the cop for illegally shooting, but they found the gun and it was a justified shooting in the end.<\/p>\n<p>The cop does a press conference and says, the black cop, and says, &#8220;Would the community have been just as supportive of me if he had killed me?&#8221;\u00a0 He said, &#8220;Look at me.\u00a0 I\u2019m black.\u00a0 I\u2019m as black as the victim here.\u00a0 Would you have been just as supportive of me if he had killed me?&#8221;\u00a0 There was no answer to that given.<\/p>\n<p>Then the episode goes on to the next episode in which another suspect\u2019s lawyer is explaining why his client ran when the cops showed up.\u00a0 And this black lawyer says &#8212; and I\u2019m just reporting because these are the kind of things, how many times do people quote reality to you based on what they saw on a movie, a television show?\u00a0 That\u2019s the point here.\u00a0 So this black lawyer &#8212; to paraphrase &#8212; says something like, in answer, &#8220;Why did your client run?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Because innocent and black don\u2019t exist in the minds of the cops.\u00a0 That\u2019s why my client ran.\u00a0 He knew that if the cops caught up with him, that\u2019d be the end of him.&#8221;\u00a0 This episode\u2019s been on for months before any of this stuff is happening here.\u00a0 And yet I guarantee you people watch this, &#8220;See?\u00a0 See?\u00a0 I saw it on TV.\u00a0 Racist cops! Even the black cops are racist, and everybody knows the black guys have no chance with the cops.&#8221;\u00a0 That\u2019s how this stuff spreads.\u00a0 I mean, it\u2019s tentacles, the web of deceit is woven deeply.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Then five Dallas officers were gunned down out of race hatred and cop hatred. Did Obama shelve his incendiary rhetoric and express his unqualified support for law enforcement? No, he\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/time.com\/4403543\/president-obama-dallas-shooting-memorial-service-speech-transcript\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">doubled down<\/a>, insulting law enforcement yet again even as it was grieving for its fallen comrades. In a memorial service for the Dallas officers, Obama rebuked all of America for its &#8216;bigotry,\u2019 but paid special attention to alleged police bigotry.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This is a speech where the Drive-By Media and a lot of conservative media praised Obama.\u00a0 This is the memorial in Dallas speech. &#8220;Oh, what a great speech. My God, he finally &#8211;&#8221;\u00a0 Then the last half of the speech where he makes this comment about Glocks are easier to get than books.\u00a0 <img id=\"eZObject_124940\" class=\"img_right\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/520116762_large.jpg\" align=\"right\" \/>Well, truth is, here\u2019s what he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When African-Americans from all walks of life, from different communities across the country, voice a growing despair over what they perceive to be unequal treatment, when study after study shows that whites and people of color experience the criminal justice system differently. So that if you\u2019re black, you\u2019re more likely to be pulled over or searched or arrested; more likely to get longer sentences; more likely to get the death penalty for the same crime. &#8230; When all this takes place, more than 50 years after the passage of the Civil Rights Act, we cannot simply turn away and dismiss those in peaceful protest.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So here he was rebuking the cops at a memorial for five dead police officers.\u00a0 And Heather Mac Donald wrote that &#8220;The irresponsible zealotry of this rebuke was stunning. Obama was fully on notice that the hatred of cops was reaching homicidal levels. And yet his commitment to prosecuting his crusade against phantom police racism trumped considerations of prudence.&#8221;\u00a0 He was just throwing gasoline on it, by, again, promulgating false, out-of-context statistics on arrest and sentencing.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Late-breaking news.\u00a0 The Freddie Gray case, a judge has acquitted the fourth defendant.\u00a0 That means not a single charge has stuck on any of the cops in the death of Freddie Gray, a nice young man, as he was referred to by Marilyn Mosby, the DA there.&#8221;Prosecutors in Baltimore have failed for the fourth [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":70,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 -
