RUSH: The president went back to television today. He had a news conference outside in the Rose Garden today. Here\u2019s a portion of what the president said.<\/p>\n

THE PRESIDENT: The Democrats in Congress continue to pursue their bills, and now they have left Washington for spring recess without finishing the work. Democrat leaders in Congress seem more interested in fighting political battles in Washington than providing our troops what they need to fight the battle in his Iraq. If Democrat leaders in Congress are bent on making a political statement, then they need to send me this unacceptable bill as quickly as possible when they come back. I\u2019ll veto it, and then Congress can get down to the business of funding our troops without strings and without delay.<\/p>\n

RUSH. Right. Not as forceful as the president could have been, but he\u2019s still out there basically telling these people, ‘Look, stop the theatrics. Just get the bill up here so I can veto it so we can move on.\u2019 Meanwhile, Dingy Harry is saying, ‘Hey, you know, not only are we going to not do that, we\u2019re going to cut the funding and we\u2019re going to set a troop level. We\u2019re going to do both things,\u2019 Dingy Harry said. If he doesn\u2019t have the votes he\u2019s going to keep trying for it. So they\u2019ve cast their lot, and the president understandably put the responsibility for this on the Democrats.<\/p>\n

THE PRESIDENT: The bottom line is this. Congress\u2019 failure to fund our troops on the front lines will mean that some of our military families could wait longer for their loved ones to return from the front lines, and others could see their loved ones headed back to the war sooner than they need to. That is unacceptable to me, and I believe that it is unacceptable to the American people. Congress\u2019 most basic responsibility is to give our troops the equipment and training they need to fight our enemies and protect our nation. They\u2019re now failing in that responsibility, and if they do not change course in the coming weeks the price of that failure will be paid by our troops and their loved ones.<\/p>\n

RUSH: And one more with the president again telling the Democrats: stop the theatrics.<\/p>\n

THE PRESIDENT: I think the voters in America want Congress to support our troops who are in harm\u2019s way. They don\u2019t want politicians in Washington telling our generals how to fight a war. There\u2019s been a political dance going on here in Washington. They need to come off their vacation, get a bill to my desk, and if it\u2019s got strings and mandates and withdrawals and pork, I\u2019ll veto it and we can get down to business of getting this thing done, and we can do it quickly. It doesn\u2019t have to take a lot of time. If we get the bill, get the troops funded, we can go about our business of winning this war.<\/p>\n

RUSH: So the president obviously believes the Democrats here are just engaging in theatrics. He thinks that that\u2019s what they\u2019re doing. ‘Okay, you got the game out of the way. You got the theatrics done. Come back and give me the bill so we can get going on it.\u2019 I don\u2019t know if he actually thinks that. That\u2019s how he sounds, and I think if he does believe it, he misunderstands them. I can\u2019t believe that. I can\u2019t believe he misunderstands their intent. They own defeat! They are wedded to it. Folks, I keep telling you this. (I hate so sound like a broken record.) They cannot afford victory politically. They cannot allow it to happen. They are they are dead serious. By the way, that last bite was in response to a question from David Gregory, and the question was this. ‘You said the Democrats are undercutting troops the way they\u2019ve voted. They\u2019re obviously trying to assert more control over foreign policy. Isn\u2019t that what the voters have elected them to do in November?\u2019 Bush didn\u2019t answer that. But clearly that\u2019s not what voters elected them to do, and I\u2019m not going to waste time here going through the analysis of the November election results, but the Democrats did not campaign on that. <\/p>\n

They didn\u2019t campaign on anything, and yet they\u2019re out there claiming a mandate. Look, it\u2019s this simple. If that\u2019s what the election has been about, the president wouldn\u2019t have the fortitude to stand up to it, if the election had been about that, getting out of Iraq. He\u2019s recognized Democrat electoral victories in a number of other areas. He\u2019s having meetings with them and this sort of thing, and you wouldn\u2019t have as many Republicans holding out. The Republicans have counted votes. They have a letter, a promissory letter from 154 Republicans in the House to the president to sustain his veto, and that\u2019s plenty needed to sustain the veto. So, I don\u2019t know. It\u2019s just a golden opportunity here. These people are not engaged in theatrics. It\u2019s time to hit them hard on the fact that this is serious stuff! It\u2019s time to hit \u2019em on the fact that they are attempting to secure the defeat of the United States and the United States Military, not only in the Iraqi theater, but also in the entire war on terror. You know, I got a lot of e-mail notes last night from people who are watching last night\u2019s episode of \u201924.\u2019 <\/line>A couple people sent me notes and said, ‘I\u2019m afraid the show is jumping the shark.\u2019 <\/line><\/p>\n

I said, ‘What do you mean, jumping the shark? Where did it jump the shark?\u2019<\/p>\n

‘Well, the evil Russian guy, Gredenko cutting off his arm in order to get rid of the isotope they\u2019d injected to track him.\u2019<\/p>\n

I said, Come on! That\u2019s pretty accurate portrayal of the kind of commitment we face in these people.\u2019<\/p>\n

Somebody else said, ‘No, I think they jumped the shark when they lit off the nuke in episode four.\u2019<\/p>\n

I said, ‘Well, I don\u2019t think they\u2019ve jumped the shark on this show, \u201924,\u2019 by any stretch of the imagination.\u2019 <\/p>\n

Even though this person thought that they jumped the shark by lighting off the nuke on episode four, he said, ‘It was still a good thing to show the American people what\u2019s possible.\u2019<\/p>\n

I wrote back, and I said, ‘You\u2019re missing the whole point here. In the first place, the Democrats and the Drive-By Media have done a bang-up job of convincing a whole slew of Americans there is no war on terror. 9\/11 was an isolated, episodic event, and it doesn\u2019t portend anything. We haven\u2019t had an attack on this country since 9\/11. That was 2001. This is 2007, and we\u2019re basically five and a half years away from that attack, approximately, and a lot of people have wanted to forget it and have been able to forget it because of the lack of an attack and the way that the whole Iraq war is being portrayed by the Drive-Bys and the Democrats.\u2019<\/p>\n

I think they\u2019re looking at \u201924\u2019 now just as a television show. They\u2019re judging it on the basis of a television show. I don\u2019t think people are watching \u201924\u2019 right now in the guise of understanding what could happen or what is possible in this country. I\u2019m serious. I do think a lot of people in this country wanted to forget it because it\u2019s traumatic, and we don\u2019t show the pictures of it very often. You couple that with the way the Democrats and the Drive-Bys have been talking about the whole business. We don\u2019t belong in Iraq. It\u2019s now our fault, the Brits are saying, that the Iranians took these 15 hostages. It\u2019s always our fault! It\u2019s exactly what I told you Friday: We\u2019re the big guys. We don\u2019t have any excuse for doing what we do. All of the minorities out there, the smaller nations, they have every reason to do whatever they want. They can break the law. They can violate Geneva. They can do whatever they do because they\u2019re up against us.<\/emphasize> That\u2019s the liberal mind-set. Now, we had 19 people who flew themselves into buildings with our airplanes, and they didn\u2019t just cut off their arms, ladies and gentlemen. <\/p>\n

They created a burning inferno, brought down two buildings, 220 stories of buildings, in a fireball that was thousands of degrees, and people have found a way to forget it. Now, I\u2019m a little off on a tangent here, but the bottom line is that the Democrats are invested in the concept of obliterating 9\/11 from as many memories as possible and convincing as many Americans as possible there\u2019s no need for a war on terror — and in fact, the war on terror is causing Muslims to hate us, and then if there are any future attacks, it\u2019s going to be because of Bush. That\u2019s what\u2019s being set up here. That\u2019s why I don\u2019t think what the Democrats are engaging in is theatrics. I don\u2019t think that Dingy Harry or Nancy Pelosi or any of these people are engaged in theatrics at all. We\u2019re seeing them as they really are! They are telling us who they really are. They\u2019re not actors on a stage. These people are emboldened. They\u2019re feeling confident, all kinds of self-esteem. They\u2019re unabashed in showing us who they really are and what their objectives are, and we haven\u2019t even gotten to Nancy Pelosi and Syria<\/a>.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: You gotta hear this. On CNN today, anchor Tony Harris is talking to David Rodham Gergen, and he says, ‘What are your general thoughts and impressions of what the president had to say this morning in his press conference?\u2019<\/p>\n

GERGEN: Most administrations in the past, knowing a showdown was coming, people would start angling for, ‘Okay, after the showdown, how do we get together? How do we compose our differences, reconcile our differences and go on?\u2019 Most presidents you see at this point when they\u2019re as weak as this, become agile. They begin moving around. ‘How do I maneuver out of this situation? How do I maneuver out of this corner?\u2019 This president is not trying to do that.<\/p>\n

HARRIS: I think you\u2019re right on that one.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, thank you, Tony. Tony Harris, the anchor at CNN, ‘I think you\u2019re right about that,\u2019 David Rodham Gergen. Here\u2019s the thing, folks. What is the compromise? David Rodham Gergen is very, very aghast here that Bush is so confrontational when he\u2019s so weak, and he\u2019s not working on a compromise. Somebody tell me: how in the hell do you compromise between defeat and victory? Where\u2019s the middle ground between the two? The only way I see it is, if you want victory, you gotta give up victory and you\u2019ve gotta compromise with defeat. Maybe you won\u2019t want to go with defeat as soon as the Democrats want it. Maybe what you say is, ‘Okay. Uh, uh, uh, we\u2019ll lose in two years or three instead of next March. Instead of a year from now, let us lose in two years.\u2019 This is like negotiating on the minimum wage, although the stakes are greater here. Defeat and victory, I don\u2019t know where the compromise is. Democrats want three bucks an hour to increase the minimum wage, and the Republicans says, ‘Well, I\u2019ll give you a buck and a half.\u2019 <\/p>\n

Democrats say, ‘Okay, deal,\u2019 and everybody says, ‘Yay! Yay! Kumbaya! We got compromise.\u2019 We have no compromise. We have a Republican cave-in when that happens. You accept the Democrat premise. Well, right here David Rodham Gergen and everybody else, wants Bush to accept the Democrat premise. That\u2019s what they mean by compromise: accept defeat. ‘You\u2019re defeated, Mr. President. You don\u2019t have any support. The American people are against you. Nobody on Capitol Hill\u2019s got your back. You gotta give up. You gotta admit defeat. You have to allow the United States to lose this. That\u2019s what the American people want.\u2019 I\u2019m so sick and tired of Democrats running around saying, ‘The American people want X. The American people want Y.\u2019 How do they know what the American people want? You know, these broad-brush strokes like this like this are offensive to me. Anyway, I don\u2019t know where the compromise — and Gergen knows this. Gergen is a relatively smart guy. <\/p>\n

They\u2019re all advocating and trying to pressure Bush to ‘compromise\u2019 and admit defeat and secure it so that the Democrats won\u2019t get the blame for it. You can\u2019t take that out of the equation.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Pat, Chicago, Illinois, on WLS. Welcome to the EIB Network.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh, mega dittos, Rush. I\u2019m verklempt<\/emphasize>. This makes my day.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, I appreciate that. Thanks for the call.<\/p>\n

CALLER: My point is that I was thinking about how much the Al-Qaeda and Democrats have in common, when the Democrats tenaciously pursue the Republican de jour<\/emphasize>, this one being Gonzales, and the Al-Qaeda are tenacious enough to keep going until the Democrats pull us out.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, now, some people are going to —<\/p>\n

CALLER: I don\u2019t care!<\/p>\n

RUSH: — blanch at a comparison of Pelosi and the Democrats to Al-Qaeda.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, well (laughing).<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, the Democrats haven\u2019t blown up any buildings yet. Some of their supporters did in the sixties, but they haven\u2019t done any of that.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, just their tenacity, just their, you know, stuff that just doesn\u2019t make any sense. They\u2019re going after Gonzales for nothing.<\/p>\n

RUSH: No, no, that makes total sense if you understand who they are. It makes total sense. (sigh) I\u2019m up against it on time here coming up to the next break, but ever since Watergate, the Democrats\u2019 lesson that they think they learned is, that the route to power is via scandal in the Republican Party: creating it as often as possible, lying about it if necessary, creating in the minds of as many Americans as possible that Republican administrations and individuals are corrupt, and do that rather than run on the things they actually believe, which they didn\u2019t do in November. They ran that trick again just as they have frequently, and they try to constantly since Watergate. One thing you said, they are tenacious. Here\u2019s the best way I can describe this. You and I, we go to the work every day, and we finish work, and most of us try to leave work at the office as much as possible and have other things going on in life, our kids (well, your kids. I, whew, have none) and your grandkids, whatever. I know works takes lot of time, and some people don\u2019t get away from it as much as they would like, but you still try. Most people are not scheming 24\/7 about personal advancement or whatever. There\u2019s a balance. <\/p>\n

Now, the Democrats — and Republicans are the same way, I\u2019m convinced — in Washington, these people are pit bulls, the Democrats. They, 24\/7, are plotting. They are coordinating. Your word was ‘tenacious.\u2019 They know they have the Drive-By Media as willing accomplices. So there\u2019s a lot of coordination if not direct, it\u2019s implicit. They are constantly, when leave capital, they go home. They have meetings. They go to the bar. They go wherever, and they plot the next day\u2019s strategy and they plot the day after that and they plot the week and they plot the year. They have meetings with people, advise them on the right words to use. Republicans go home and they do whatever they do. It\u2019s a different mind-set, and the reason for it is that Democrats and liberals require for anything they want to happen, to have an iron-fisted control of government. It is their dream. It is their passion to wholly control and run the government. Republicans have no such dream. The thing they want to do with government is limit it and restrain it. They don\u2019t want to populate it and become part of the bureaucracy. That\u2019s one of the differences. That\u2019s the tenacity that you\u2019re talking about. It\u2019s their lives. Everything they do is oriented toward gaining and holding and amassing their power, and their strategery for accomplishing that is to destroy as many Republicans as possible, not just defeat them. <\/p>\n

RUSH: RUSH: Our hero, Vice President Dick Cheney yesterday was in Birmingham, Alabama, and when you listen to this, see if you can find something in here that… What\u2019s the way to put this? Well, the vice president is making an incorrect assumption.<\/p>\n

THE VICE PRESIDENT: It\u2019s time the self-appointed strategists on Capitol Hill understood a very simple concept. You cannot win a war if you tell the enemy when you\u2019re going to quit. The fact is that the United States Military answers to one commander-in-chief in the White House, not 535 commanders-in-chief on Capitol Hill.<\/p>\n

RUSH: All right, now what\u2019s the flaw in what the vice president just said? I\u2019ll tell you what it is. ‘You cannot win a war if you tell the enemy when you\u2019re going to quit.\u2019 The flaw is his assumption that the Democrats want to win the war. They don\u2019t want to win it! Folks, if they cared about winning the war, they wouldn\u2019t be doing any of what they\u2019re doing. Now, I know what the vice president is trying to do. He\u2019s not actually talking to the Democrats here. He\u2019s speaking to his audience and whoever else happens to hear his remarks, and in that sense it\u2019s a brilliant statement: ‘You can\u2019t win a war when you tell the enemy when you\u2019re going to quit.\u2019 He\u2019s calling the Democrats quitters, and he\u2019s making no bones about it. They own defeat. He\u2019s calling them quitters, and that\u2019s actually a very simple word to convey to the American people about the Democrats and their objectives here. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
