RUSH: Hillary was also asked a question about Wal-Mart. When I was flying home last night last night, I\u2019m channel surfed around up there and I\u2019m watching MSNBC because they\u2019re the only one really talking about the debate aftermath because they carried it. They were raving about this particular answer that she gave. Here it is. The question from Brian Williams: ‘Senator Clinton, overall is Wal-Mart a good thing or a bad thing for the United States of America?\u2019<\/p>\n

HILLARY: Well, it\u2019s a mixed blessing. When Wal-Mart started, it brought goods into rural areas like rural Arkansas where I was happy to live for 18 years and gave people a chance to stretch their dollar further. As they grew much bigger, though, they have raised serious questions about the responsibility of corporations and how they need to be a leader when it comes to providing health care and having, you know, safe working conditions and not discriminating on the basis of sex or race or any other category. You know, Brian, this is all part, though, of how this administration and corporate America today don\u2019t see middle class and working Americans. They are invisible.<\/p>\n

RUSH: That answer was being treated as the best thing any candidate said last night by the people that I was watching on PMSNBC discuss this. What they loved was, ‘It\u2019s a mixed blessing.\u2019 They think she was brilliant in pointing out that Wal-Mart\u2019s done some good things. They started small and were able to stretch the dollars of poor people, but now they\u2019re stretching the dollars of everybody and that\u2019s hurting other people. Then we get this routine that they\u2019re discriminating on the basis of sex or race. They don\u2019t have safe working conditions. They\u2019re not providing health care. Wal-Mart\u2019s going to open 400 health clinics throughout their chain of stores. They\u2019re going to do more for health care than Mrs. Clinton has done for health care with her stupid Hillary Care plan. <\/p>\n

But forget the mixed message. The last thing she said here is the key. ‘You know, Brian, this is all part of how this administration and corporate America don\u2019t see working Americans. They are invisible.\u2019 It\u2019s just the exact opposite<\/emphasize>. The truth of the matter is the way Democrat see average Americans and they see them through the lens of contempt. They see them through the lens of incompetence. Democrats like Mrs. Clinton look at you and see hopelessness. You don\u2019t have what it takes to overcome obstacles in life. You can\u2019t get along unless Mrs. Clinton is riding herd on the evils in our society — and who are the evils? Well, they\u2019re Big Oil. They\u2019re Big Drug. They\u2019re Wal-Mart or any big corporation. You look at their enemies list and who they want to get even with. She wants to ‘take the profits\u2019 of the oil companies. She said that in a very, very socialistic proposal that she made. Of course, nobody hyped on that much, but they look at average Americans and don\u2019t see potential at all. <\/p>\n

They\u2019re out there sitting and talking about how average Americans are invisible to corporate America and this administration, which has done more for average Americans than any Democrat administration to come down the pike in I don\u2019t know how long with tax cuts and economic growth and opportunity. It is amazing, the affluence in this country today is astounding. Nobody is really aware of it because it\u2019s not being reported. Individuals are aware of it, obviously, in terms of their own life but they hear how rotten things are so they think they\u2019re just lucking out, feel even a little guilty about doing well because they think so many other people aren\u2019t, because they\u2019re being fed a bunch of lies about the truth. This country is so affluent, so much economic opportunity here, it is breathtaking, especially when you travel the world or have traveled the world and see what genuine poverty is and genuine economic depression, lack of opportunity. This place is the Garden of Eden, this country is the Garden of Eden, and they refuse to see it that way. They cannot possibly. When is the last time you\u2019ve heard a Democrat say something positive about this country? Since Bush was elected, when\u2019s it is last time? Even if they get close, Wal-Mart is a mixed blessing, still gotta tear the whole thing down, started off fine, ‘When I was on the board.\u2019 Now it\u2019s just destroying people\u2019s lives. She was on the board of Wal-Mart, folks, and it was all just fine right then, in the beginning. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
