He got tricked into going on the Price and Right, and didn\u2019t know the price. The usual setup questions from the Drive-By Media. They asked him what a loaf of bread costs, and a gallon of milk was, and he didn\u2019t know. He hadn\u2019t stepped into a grocery store lately. So there\u2019s a little bit of embarrassment out there. I don\u2019t know what he said bread was, but he said a gallon of milk was a buck fifty. How many of you really know the price? No, no, no, no! I mean <emphasize>really<\/emphasize> know the price of a loaf of bread or of a gallon of milk? I\u2019m not talking about how many of you remember what it cost the last time you bought it. The fact of the matter is, most people, when they go to the grocery store, it doesn\u2019t matter what it costs because they have to have it. You\u2019ve gotta have milk, and of course you\u2019ve gotta have bread, the so-called staff of life. You buy it, whatever it costs. It\u2019s like gasoline, you buy it. Now, you remember the gasoline cost because that\u2019s a little political there, but most people would have to search their memory banks. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125110.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"250\" height=\"253\" class=\"alignright\"\/>The point they were trying to make with Rudy was, &#8216;Well, he doesn\u2019t get to the store, and that means he can\u2019t represent America as a president; why, he hasn\u2019t been a real guy, doesn\u2019t go to the grocery store.\u2019 But my question is: how many of you really know what the price of a gallon of milk is and a loaf of bread? Not what it is in the grocery store. For example, how much does a gallon of milk <emphasize>really<\/emphasize> cost? If you factor out the taxes, federal and state; if you factor out the subsidies to the farmers; if the factor out the transportation costs, what does a gallon of milk really cost? Is it like gasoline, where the feds get some, I don\u2019t know, 17 cents a gallon in tax and the states get 28 cents? Is it true as in gasoline? Do you know the federal government makes more profit on gasoline than the oil companies do, because they don\u2019t have any costs? They don\u2019t have any R&amp;amp;D. They don\u2019t have any drilling. They don\u2019t have any distribution costs. They\u2019re just thieves. Every time the gallon of gas goes up and you people start getting crazy and making all kinds of catcall noises out there about the oil company profits, stop and think.<\/p>\n<p>For state and local governments, every penny is profit, and the more the price goes up, the more they benefit. Well, is that true in milk, I wonder? Does the government profit more from the sale of a loaf of bread or a gallon of milk than the actual manufacturers, producers and distributors of those products? Even if they don\u2019t in this case, because they\u2019re food items may not be federal tax on it, there\u2019s local sales tax on some of these things in several states, but the point is how many of you really know what the cost of these things are? By the time you subsidize the farmers and factor in all these other things, what is the <emphasize>real<\/emphasize> cost? &#8216;Rush, you\u2019re skirting the issue, trying to save Rudy.\u2019 No! No, no. I\u2019m trying to illustrate a point, folks. Do you think Rudy Giuliani needs people to bail him out on The Price is Right? It\u2019s just a typical trick question from the Drive-Bys, and it has no practical relevancy to the election and primaries or whatever coming up. (interruption). What\u2019s so funny in there? Just ask the wife? Oh, that\u2019s a real sexist comment! That\u2019s a real sexist comment. So Rudy should have just asked his wife what it cost? (Laughing.) I\u2019ll bet she hasn\u2019t been to the grocery store in a longer period of time than Rudy. That\u2019d be my guess. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I have a better question than what a loaf of bread costs or a gallon of milk costs. It\u2019s a tired, age-old question. Reporters need to come up with a new question, such as, &#8216;What do you think one of Hillary Clinton\u2019s pantsuits cost?\u2019 and the answer to that is, &#8216;Well, I\u2019m not sure, but it\u2019s probably pretty cheap since she probably buys them by the gross.\u2019 Ask Hillary what&#8230;. (interruption) You don\u2019t like that comment, Dawn? She\u2019s smirking in there. Ooh! Maybe I hit a nerve. Okay, if you don\u2019t like that, ask Hillary what one of her pantsuits costs and see if she knows. Well, if you\u2019re going to ask Rudy about all this kind of stuff&#8230; <\/p>\n<p>You know the neighbor of John Edwards, this Monty Johnson guy that Elizabeth Edwards says is a slummer and his property is a slum, his 42 acres and this &#8216;rabid, rabid Republican,\u2019 that she would never want to meet or talk to? She wants to keep her kids away from the guy. He\u2019s gotta sell his property because the property taxes doubled because the Edwards built this monstrosity of a mansion across the street from him or down the road from him, and somebody asked Edwards about this, &#8216;Well, you gotta ask my wife. Ask Elizabeth about that.\u2019 So I guess Elizabeth is out there protecting the homestead. So your question\u2019s good, Brian. Rudy should have just said, &#8216;Go ask Judith about that. I\u2019ve got more things to be concerned about than what I pay for a loaf of bread,\u2019 or what have you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Well, poor old Rudy Giuliani.
