But,&#8221; they say, &#8220;that was rape as it was defined back then. That would not be rape today.<\/line>\n<p>&#8220;And, besides, he hasn\u2019t done it since, and he\u2019s a good guy, so no sweat.&#8221; That\u2019s essentially what they say. &#8220;Yeah, he probably did rape her. Yeah, yeah. But it\u2019s not rape as we would call it today. It was just alpha male sex back then when Clinton did that, and he hasn\u2019t done it since &#8212; and he\u2019s a good guy, so it doesn\u2019t matter. It was a long time ago.&#8221; And that\u2019s the official&#8230; That was on Wonkette. A bunch of websites have picked that up. This was the Daily Caller that picked it up. Yeah, I saw that last night.<\/p>\n<line xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\"><strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.benhurmovie.com\/\">You Must Go See the New Ben-Hur Movie<\/a><\/strong><\/line><line xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\">RUSH: I meant to thank&#8230; (sigh) You know, I should have done this earlier. I had a chance last night to watch the new movie Ben-Hur. It\u2019s a Mark Burnett-Roma Downey production. They\u2019re the executive producers. There are a lot of people behind it, and they went to the trouble of making a closed-caption screener for me. We sent it back to them today. We cut it up with scissors and sent it back. They went to a lot of trouble to enable me to see this. And, folks, I\u2019m just gonna tell you: Go see it.<\/line>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"585\" height=\"325\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gLJdzky63BA\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>Don\u2019t pay any attention to these reviews comparing it to Ben-Hur with Charleston Heston in 1959. Many people today haven\u2019t seen that version. This is a modernized version of it with a little bit of a difference in the storytelling. But it is&#8230; I found myself rewinding a bunch of times to rewatch scenes, and not because I couldn\u2019t hear them (because I had the captioning). I wanted to see something again. The cinematography is great. It\u2019s about two hours, a little over two hours, 1:04 the run time.<\/p>\n<p>Two hours and four minutes is what it is. But I thoroughly enjoyed it. The time flew by. You know, some people are gonna call it hokey, because the message is so clean. The message&#8230; It\u2019s about love and friendship and betrayal and integrity and honesty and doing the right thing. It depicts the Crucifixion. Jesus is portrayed well in this. I think, for whatever reason &#8212; whether you want a message out of it, if you want to be entertained&#8230; (chuckles)<\/p>\n<p>The chariot race in this is incredible. I watched it three different times last night. It took me probably three hours to watch the whole thing because I was rewinding. It opens Friday. As I say, you know, don\u2019t pay attention to the critics, whatever they say, good or bad. Judge it for yourself. Don\u2019t compare it to \u201959, the Charlton Heston version. You can, but don\u2019t base your decision on whether you\u2019re gonna see it based on what somebody says about it compared to that, \u2019cause it\u2019s a different era.<\/p>\n<p>But you will thoroughly enjoy it. And some of you might even get a lot out of it. I think a lot of people will get a lot out of it. You realize that in a climate like this to get a movie like that made &#8212; big budget, open in 3,000 theaters &#8212; is an important deal. It\u2019s not a message movie per se. It\u2019s a full-fledged entertaining movie as it\u2019s intended to be, but it does have some message benefits to it that I think are thoroughly worthwhile. It\u2019s Ben-Hur. Ben-Hur. Judah Ben-Hur.<\/p>\n<line xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\">Your Host Out Thursday and Friday, Returns Monday<\/a><\/strong><\/line><line xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\">RUSH: Okay, reminder, folks: Business trip here tomorrow and Friday.
