I have evidence. I have evidence that nothing angers these people more than turning their own tactics on them. We have CNN\u2019s Wolf Blitzer this afternoon. David Gregory, former host of Meet the Depressed, Gloria Borger, CNN chief political analyst, they\u2019re on there with Wolf Blitzer. And listen to this.<\/p>\n<p>BLITZER: He\u2019s going on and on and he\u2019s specifically blaming the Democrats. They don\u2019t want to to do, Gloria, what\u2019s right for our country. That\u2019s what he just said.<\/p>\n<p>BORGER: In the days after the Las Vegas attack, if you recall &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>BLITZER: Exactly one month ago today.<\/p>\n<p>BORGER: Right. The White House said it was too soon, can\u2019t talk about any legislative response, you can\u2019t talk about politics, you can\u2019t get politics into this, and here we are, the president now, one day after this attack, blaming, you know, blaming the Democrats. Come on. This isn\u2019t politics.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-253243\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/CNNBanned.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/CNNBanned.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/CNNBanned-300x144.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/>RUSH: (laughing) Don\u2019t you love it? &#8220;Come on. Come on. This isn\u2019t politics.&#8221; It was a piece of legislation sponsored by Teddy Kennedy and Chuck Schumer to reach out to people who do not want to come to America. You know what? If you wanted to really politicize this we would point out that once again we had a terrorist stopped by a good guy with a gun!<\/p>\n<p>If we really wanted to politicize this, we would point out that it was an NYPD officer gutsy, courageous, and brave that shut this down with a gun! The good guy was once again an off-duty copy and not a member of Black Lives Matter or some such thing, if we really wanted to politicize this.<\/p>\n<p>What about this. We have here a Diversity Visa Program. What could be more ridiculous? And it is Democrat Party thinking. Oh, man, I love it when these people have their tactics turned on \u2019em, and they do not like it. They\u2019re not used to it. This is precisely why they hate Trump and why they\u2019re not gonna stop trying to get rid of him.<\/p>\n<p>Put it this way. What if we went out and found people who didn\u2019t want guns and gave them guns? We just do a lottery. We\u2019ll call it diversity lottery, gun diversity lottery. We get hold of people who don\u2019t want a gun, haven\u2019t ever tried to get one, and we give them one, to try to show them the virtues, to try to welcome them into the club and the universe of gun ownership.<\/p>\n<p>And then we turn \u2019em loose. We turn \u2019em loose in America, we call it the Diversity of Gun Ownership Program. Do you think the left would like that? What do you think, Mr. Snerdley? Would the left like that? The Diversity Gun Ownership Program. We reach out to people who don\u2019t have guns and don\u2019t want guns and we give them one. In fact, we deliver the gun to them. What kind do you want, AK, AR-15, Glock 19? What do you want? We\u2019ll bring it to you.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-225956\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Rush-Photos-SMALL-006.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"325\" height=\"325\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Rush-Photos-SMALL-006.jpg 325w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Rush-Photos-SMALL-006-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Rush-Photos-SMALL-006-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 325px) 100vw, 325px\" \/>We take it to \u2019em and we leave. We turn \u2019em loose. I ask you, what\u2019s the difference? You think that kind of diversity would be appreciated? You think that kind of diversity program be applauded? You think they would politically attack that diversity program? Hell, yes, they would with their heart and souls. Exactly right.<\/p>\n<p>Here is Wolf Blitzer, &#8220;He\u2019s going on and on, he\u2019s specifically blaming the Democrats,&#8221; as though, Wolf, you\u2019ve never blamed the Republicans for anything to do with guns. Gregory, the former host of Meet the Depressed, it was his turn to get in on this.<\/p>\n<p>BLITZER: Didn\u2019t take long for the president to get very, very political in the aftermath of this, the worst terror attack, the deadliest terror attack in New York City since 9\/11.<\/p>\n<p>GREGORY: This is stupid. I mean, this back-and-forth is stupid. We\u2019ve just had a tragedy, we\u2019ve had another terrorist attack. What we need is leadership from both parties and from Washington.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Stupid, this is stupid. We had a terror attack and Fort Hood, and you people, Mr. Gregory, and everybody else tried to tell us it was workplace violence. &#8220;Didn\u2019t take long for the president to get very, very political. Worst terror attack since 9\/11, he turns it political.&#8221; You guys politicized 9\/11 after two weeks. Stuck pigs.
