RUSH: We\u2019ve been talking a lot lately about what I consider to be the implosion <\/emphasize>of the Democratic Party and the liberal wing of that party particularly, and I\u2019ve not gotten any response like this or any e-mails, but one of the things a qualified broadcast specialist like me needs is empathy. I think the key ingredient to succeeding in a talk show like this is empathy — and by that I mean you have to be able to, while hosting this show, imagine you\u2019re listening to it and realize, “Okay, I\u2019ve done that enough. Time to get off of it,” and I may be getting close here with this, but I don\u2019t think so yet, because I still sense that there are some of you people out there who are not listening<\/emphasize>. I sense that there\u2019s some of you people out there who are refusing to accept my warnings on this, and you persist in wanting to run around and live in fear of this once masterful Democrat machine that seemed to never make mistakes and always got what transported, and always defeated us no matter what we did and no matter how smartly we did it. <\/line>See, I want to keep pounding home the idea that they are in trouble on the Democrat side and on the left, and the express reason for it is twofold. One: Just, again, to demonstrate that my instincts on all this are right. (I don\u2019t know how after 18 years anybody ever doubts me, but they still do.) The second thing is, when the news itself comes from Democrats that they are hopeless, then to those of you who might doubt me, <\/emphasize>the credibility of such stories or statements coming from Democrats will help you to accept it, and there is also a third reason. Some people just have a problem with good news. “Eeeeeeh, there\u2019s gotta be a catch here somewhere,” and you know those kinds of people: people who are afraid of success. I have never been afraid of success, but a lot of people are, and they\u2019re so insecure that any good news, “Ah, don\u2019t fall for that. That\u2019s just a trick. That\u2019s just temporary. Rush, you\u2019re going off half cocked here. It\u2019s not the way to do it. You need to put the gun back in the holster and hold your fire because it\u2019s not the way.”<\/line>That\u2019s not me. I see trends. I\u2019m in front of trends. It\u2019s what being “on the cutting edge of societal evolution” is all about. It\u2019s interesting the timing of this column here that I\u2019m going to share with you in a moment, Richard Cohen. Because this week we have been talking about men and women and the way feminism has destroyed the public education system — and it\u2019s literally — I think feminism is one of the real reasons the Democratic Party is heading down the tubes. The Feminization of Democratic Men. There wasn\u2019t too much of that necessary when they started, but that just made the job easier for them, and you look out on the Democrat side. Look at any Democrat leader, any Democrat candidate, and you tell me: In the eyes of tradition, do you see a real man? I don\u2019t. I see wusses. I see wusses that don\u2019t even have the confidence of their own beliefs to tell these wacko leftists to shut up<\/emphasize>! <\/line><\/p>\n

“Go ahead and keep sending us money, but shut up. You\u2019re hurting us,” and of course, watching them interact with women, that\u2019s Puke City. That\u2019s even worse. But, we\u2019ve been talking about this all week and most of this program\u2019s history. So here comes this piece. Just to show you how prescient we are on this program, here comes this piece from Richard Cohen today, and he\u2019s very liberal, and he\u2019s a columnist at the Washington Post. “What John Wayne can Teach Democrats — The latest poll is not good for the Democrats, and I\u2019m not talking here of the one showing Bush\u2019s approval rating inching up. I\u2019m talking about the recently released Harris poll showing John Wayne one of the most popular movie stars of 2005. The one thing he and the Democratic Party have in common is that they are both dead. Wayne was the quintessential anti-Democrat. Everything he stood for, from support for the Vietnam War to antipathy to the Sixties and Seventies counterculture was in consonance with GOP positions, and more important: his iconic man-on-horseback image has been adopted by virtually the whole Republican Party.<\/line>“The Harris people tell us that Wayne, tied for third with Harrison Ford, is a particular favorite of men. Tom Hanks, #1 two years in a row is beloved by women, and both Wayne and Hanks are the choice of conservatives. Liberals chose Johnny Depp as their most popular Hollywood star. Wayne [John Wayne] personifies the gender gap, the virtually habitual way white men vote Republican. There are many reasons for this: Democratic feminism, affirmative action, et cetera, but one of them surely is that the John Wayne style of the Republican Party appeals to the cowboy in most men. Even I, eastern dude that I be, would rather follow The Duke than, say, Johnny Depp. Sorry, my man, but that\u2019s the way it is. Now, back when I met John Wayne he was a dated pro-war caricature. It was 1977. The Duke had somehow been invited to Jimmy Carter\u2019s pre-inaugural gala at the Kennedy Center. <\/line>“When he was through addressing the crowd he walked right at me, looming his huge and formidable as he seemed on the screen. John Wayne department play in Westerns. John Wayne was <\/emphasize>a western. Actually he hated horses and never rode if he could possibly avoid it. Since that night, Ronald Reagan has come and gone, and now we have another John Wayne in the White House, another rancher who doesn\u2019t ranch, a cowboy who doesn\u2019t ride. No matter. George Bush shed his family\u2019s eastern ways just as surely as Wayne did his prosaic Iowa upbringing as Marion Morrison, son of Clyde the pharmacist. Well, you can scan the length of time and the breadth of the Democratic Party and you won\u2019t find any breadth, and you won\u2019t find any John Wayne figure, either. <\/line>“None of the Democratic leaders seems to have what it takes to appeal to white male voters. But if you should happen to be in Room 241<\/a> of the Russell Senate Office Building you\u2019ll find Wayne galore, pictures of John Wayne in various Arizona settings. He\u2019s a twofer: a military hero and a westerner. Democrats beware. Okay, Bill Clinton won twice, but he ain\u2019t no cowboy. So it can be done, but in the Harris approximately Wayne is ahead of Julia Roberts, Clint Eastwood, Mel Gibson, George Clooney, Sean Connery and Sandra Bullock. Democrats take Note: The Duke is still king.” What is he really saying? He\u2019s pretty blunt with this, wouldn\u2019t you say? What\u2019s he really saying? When I say, “When you look at the Democratic Party, do you see a real man?” No. John Wayne is the quintessential icon image of a real man. So the Republicans somehow have John Wayne and the Democrats have Humpback Mountain. <\/line>Could there be… I\u2019m sorry. I did it again. You know, Snerdley said that to me the other day and it\u2019s like somebody singing. It\u2019s the last song you hear; you can\u2019t stop whispering it, and I\u2019ve been calling it that ever since Snerdley sent it to me. At any rate, could there be any greater contrast to the two parties? And when you look at the feminization of the whole Democratic Party, look at their definition of their real man. (Feminized Democrat impression) “He\u2019s so touchy, feely, sensitive, metrosexual, sprays cologne all over, spends a lot of time in the hair salons and in the department stores, missing and matching the wardrobe and so forth,” and if there is any hint of a cigar or cigarette smoke, I mean, it\u2019s call-the-cops time — and they\u2019re just wusses. They\u2019re just wusses by comparison. There\u2019s no comparison, and proof that the feminist movement has actually done harm is this, and that it\u2019s taken the party backward. Because it\u2019s a denial of tradition, denial of biology, denial of human nature. So more evidence that they just continue to implode — this time provided by their own spokesman, Richard Cohen in the Washington Post. <\/line>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/line><\/p>\n

RUSH: And let\u2019s not forget — we mentioned this to you yesterday — Maureen Dowd<\/a> in her latest column has effectively come out and said, explicitly come out and said — whoever it is, Harry Reid, Pelosi — this whole bunch of leaders the Democrats have, they\u2019re not fit. They don\u2019t carry the message. They don\u2019t have any power. They don\u2019t have any influence; they don\u2019t have any oompff <\/emphasize>behind them. Liz Smith<\/a> points out today that the “high liberal voice of Texas, Molly Ivins<\/a> joined in. She writes, “Not backing Hillary.” She cites the senator for not taking a clear stand on a war, failing to speak out on the Terri Schiavo, gross pandering on flag burning, all these “contemptible little dodges.” So Maureen Dowd and Molly Ivins. There\u2019s a pair. Imagine being a guy, folks, and having two women like that call you out. <\/line>I mean, that\u2019s gotta be emasculating. You know, you\u2019ve a eunuch. Can you imagine being called out by these two? You are so bad, you are so weak that those two call you out. I mean, one thing to be called out by real woman, but these two<\/emphasize>? I\u2019m telling you: this is a party that is so far out of the mainstream, it is becoming laughable. I\u2019m not taking anything for granted, anything can happen, our side can screw up royally, it doesn\u2019t matter, don\u2019t misunderstand, but look to those people within their context, it is fascinating to watch. They are plummeting off the cliff. They don\u2019t even know they\u2019ve gone over the edge. It\u2019s just amazing. <\/line>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/line>RUSH: Here\u2019s Stan in Las Vegas<\/a>. Stan, great to have you on the EIB Network. Hello. <\/line>CALLER: Rush, I need to thank you for making any blood boil. I really enjoy it.<\/line>RUSH: Thank you, sir.<\/line>CALLER: Keep going. You just talked about the feminization of Democratic men, and when you did it, claimed not to be homo — I\u2019m saying conservatives claim not to be — homophobic. You did it with the lisp that portrayal. You know, a lot of conservative right-wing people\u2019s ideas of what a homo [sic] or a gay individual sounds like, and if that\u2019s not homophobic, there\u2019s a problem with me and I think a whole lot of other Americans in this country.<\/line>RUSH: And that\u2019s who got you upset?<\/line>CALLER: Yeah.<\/line>RUSH: Yeah.<\/line>CALLER: It didn\u2019t get me upset. It just — it\u2019s hypocritical that, “Oh, I\u2019m not a homophobe. If I\u2019m going to talk about them, I\u2019m going to talk about feminists — the feminization of Democratic men with a — a language that comes out of my mouth that, uh, dictates or sounds like what a lot of people think the — the — uh…”<\/line>RUSH: Okay. All right, look. This is a fair criticism, and since you\u2019ve called and raised it, let me ask you: Could you tell me what gays sound like?<\/emphasize> I\u2019m not trying to impersonate them. I\u2019m not trying to.<\/line>CALLER: Two gay females in my family do not sound like that. I know a number of gay people.<\/line>RUSH: I\u2019m not imitating females. I\u2019m trying to — You know, I do a lot of impressions, and I\u2019m trying to encapsulate my opinion with an impression.<\/line>CALLER: Then why don\u2019t you just talk as a regular man would talk?<\/line>RUSH: Well, because regular men don\u2019t talk like wusses.<\/line>CALLER: Wait.<\/line>RUSH: I\u2019m not trying to talk like somebody who\u2019s gay. <\/emphasize>I\u2019m just trying to make them soft-spoken and sound like they have been eunuchized.<\/line>CALLER: Yes. I know. But —<\/line>RUSH: No onions, you know? And that certainly doesn\u2019t describe gays.<\/line>CALLER: No, what you have done is reiterate your ideas in regards to what a homosexual should <\/emphasize>sound like, but basically he doesn\u2019t, and I gotta tell you: I\u2019m straight. I am married.<\/line><\/p>\n

RUSH: It sounds to me like you\u2019re the one with the prejudice. You\u2019re feeling the prejudice. I stir the prejudice in you, and you\u2019re blaming me for what you think.<\/line>CALLER: No. What I\u2019m saying is —<\/line>RUSH: You are inferring <\/emphasize>that I\u2019m sounding like “a gay” even though sauce that gays don\u2019t sound like anything. So they must sound like something to you —<\/line>CALLER: No. No. They don\u2019t sound like anything to me. They sound like a regular male human being talking to me. What their sexual overtones are or what their sexual…innuendoes are or whatever they may be has nothing to do with the way they talk.<\/line>RUSH: Okay, let\u2019s try it this way. What does a wuss or a wimp sound like, then? Because that\u2019s what I\u2019m trying to sound like. <\/line>CALLER: Again —<\/line>RUSH: This homophobia business, you people have got to get it out of your minds.<\/line>CALLER: No, no.<\/line>RUSH: You label us with all these things but you\u2019re the guy that\u2019s coming up with all the definitions of how gays sound and all that.<\/line>CALLER: (laughs) Wait. You are, again, relating those individuals, wusses and wimps, to homosexuals.<\/line>RUSH: You are!<\/line>CALLER: Rock Hudson. <\/line>RUSH: You are!<\/line>CALLER: Was Rock Hudson a wimp?<\/line>RUSH: You are doing it. When I talk about the feminization of Democratic men, I am not talking about gays. Why do you assume that?<\/line>CALLER: Come on, Rush!<\/line>RUSH: You are assuming that because you have a stereotype yourself of what a conservative is.<\/line>CALLER: (chokes) Yeah?<\/line>RUSH: You do! You think that.<\/line>CALLER: And that may be 100% totally wrong, because I know some conservatives who are not within that mold.<\/line>RUSH: Have you ever heard Robin Williams do an impression<\/a> of a gay?<\/line>CALLER: Uhhh, yes.<\/line>RUSH: All right. Did you call him and say it\u2019s not fair?<\/line>CALLER: No, no, no, no, no! I\u2019m sorry. Not a gay!<\/line>RUSH: Yes! Liberal comedians make more fun of gays than I have in my whole life. They\u2019ll do it in one routine. Anyway, look, I appreciate being able to explain this and answer it to you, but it just confirms for me that it works.<\/line>END TRANSCRIPT<\/line><\/p>\n
