RUSH: I didn\u2019t watch the debate because I didn\u2019t have to know what was said or know what was asked. The only thing I\u2019m not certain of was how extensively illegal immigration was covered. I know they were asked about English as the official language, and we have those bites. Wolf Blitzer is talking here to Mike Gravel. He said, ‘I want you to raise your hand if you believe English should be the official language of the United States,\u2019 and the only candidate that raised his hand was Senator Gravel.<\/p>\n

GRAVEL: We speak English. That doesn\u2019t mean we can\u2019t encourage other languages. I speak French and English. Some people Spanish and English. But the official language of the United States of America is English.<\/p>\n

RUSH: No other candidate agreed. Because, folks, this is nothing more than a push for voters. It\u2019s nothing more than that, which is what\u2019s happened every time we\u2019ve had an amnesty program in the past: the vast majority of the illegals that are made legal end up voting Democrat. The statistics are there. It\u2019s not even arguable. After Gravel made the comment you just heard, Obama piped up.<\/p>\n

OBAMA: This is the kind of question that is designed precisely to divide us. Uh, y-y-you know, you\u2019re right. Everybody —<\/p>\n

GRAVEL: (interrupting)<\/p>\n

OBAMA: Everybody is going to learn to speak English if they live in this country. Uh, the issue is not whether or not future generations of immigrants are going to learn English. The question is, uh, how can we come up with both a legal, sensible immigration policy? And when we get distracted by those kinds of questions, I think we do a disservice to the American people.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, now, hang on just a second. Everybody is not learning to speak English when they live in this country. That\u2019s precisely the reason for the question, and then next was Hillary Clinton. After Obama piped up, then Hillary screeched in.<\/p>\n

HILLARY: The problem is that if it becomes ‘o-fficial\u2019 instead of recognized as national — which indeed it is; it is our national language; if it becomes official — that means in a place like New York City, you can\u2019t print ballots in any other language. That means you can\u2019t have government pay for translators in hospitals so when somebody comes in with some sort of emergency, there\u2019s nobody there to help translate what their problem is for the doctors. So many of us, I did, at least, voted to say that English was our ‘national language,\u2019 but not the ‘official language\u2019 because of the legal consequences of that.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Did anybody notice the real point in her answer? (interruption) That\u2019s obvious. Well, it\u2019s not that one; that\u2019s obvious. Be hard for them to read a ballot if they can\u2019t speak English and if you can\u2019t print it in Spanish, it\u2019d be hard to read a ballot. That\u2019s a given. No. ‘You can\u2019t have government pay for translators in hospitals so when somebody comes in with some sort of emergency there\u2019s nobody there to help translate what their problem is for the doctor.\u2019 Why does that have to be something the government does? Hospitals are private concerns. Why can\u2019t hospitals themselves go out and hire translators? You see how sneaky this stuff is? I\u2019ll bet most of you people didn\u2019t even catch that, which is why I\u2019m here. You probably didn\u2019t even catch that. You were focused on all the ballot business and the rest of it just went skating by. Most people hear — and besides the government wouldn\u2019t be able to do that. Oh, the government\u2019s got to be able to do that. Now, the Washington Post today: ‘Backers of Immigration Bill More Optimistic; Lawmakers Cite Sense of Urgency.\u2019 Get this: ‘After a week at home with their constituents, the Senate architects of a delicate immigration compromise are increasingly convinced that they will hold together this week to pass an overhaul of the nation\u2019s immigration laws, with momentum building behind one unifying theme: Today\u2019s immigration system is too broken to go unaddressed.<\/p>\n

‘Congress\u2019s week-long Memorial Day recess was expected to leave the bill in tatters. But with a week of action set to begin today, the legislation\u2019s champions say they believe that the voices of opposition, especially from conservatives, represent a small segment of public opinion. Sen. Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.), who led negotiations on the bill for [the Republicans], said the flood of angry calls and protests that greeted the deal two weeks ago has since receded every day. ‘You just have to recognize you will get 300 calls, you\u2019ll get conflicts at town hall meetings — all of them negative,\u2019 said Rep. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.), who consulted with Kyl and hopes to carry a similar deal through the House in July. ‘The last few days have really turned things around.” Now, what am I missing, because I don\u2019t sense that at all. In fact, I sense the White House is in a little bit of a bugaboo over this because they\u2019re all caught up in the fact that everybody is calling it ‘amnesty,\u2019 which it is. But this story purports to have these senators behind the amnesty bill as feeling pretty cocky out there today. They\u2019ve been at home with their constituents over the weekend. They think the opposition to amnesty is fading, and the Washington Post is saying that the voices of opposition, especially the voices of conservatives who don\u2019t like the idea, are just a small part of American public opinion.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m going to tell you what this story is all about. This story is all the about marginalizing conservatives. It is all about telling America, the people that get their news from the Washington Post, ‘Don\u2019t believe all this noise you\u2019re hearing. Don\u2019t believe all this racket from conservatives about the immigration bill. They\u2019re just a small bunch of very loud people, but they are by no means representative of the American people.\u2019 If you look at the internals of this poll, which I have done, you find that it\u2019s not looking good for the people who are proposing this. I don\u2019t know how they\u2019ve interpreted the poll the way they have, and in fact they may not even have to. ‘Fifty-two percent of Americans said they would support a program giving illegal immigrants the right to stay and work in the US if they pay a fine and meet other requirements. Opposition to that was 44%.\u2019 That\u2019s a totally misleading question. There is no fine unless they seek citizenship — and once they\u2019re legal, why seek citizenship? It isn\u2019t necessary! So, there is no fine. Besides, the fine is not going to survive anyway. They\u2019re already out there talking about now — and we\u2019re talking the $5,000 fine. We\u2019ve been through all of this. Now, something popped up on the Drudge Report today from ABC News\u2019 Jan Crawford Greenburg, a highly creditable writer on the Supreme Court to legal issues.<\/p>\n

The White House is preparing a list of candidates for the next resignation of the US Supreme Court. I looked at that, and I said, ‘Well, now, that\u2019s interesting because I haven\u2019t heard anybody say they\u2019re going to resign. I haven\u2019t even heard any rumors. In fact, I\u2019ve heard the exact opposite, that Ruth Bader Ginsburg and John Paul Stevens are going to hang in there as long as they can because they don\u2019t want Bush to get the opportunity to replace them and forever or for the far-out future, reshape the ‘precious and delicate balance that exists on the court today.\u2019 So why all of a sudden does this story pop, that the administration\u2019s preparing a list of candidates (by the way, female and minorities are included in the list) to fill vacancy? Even the story says the White House says (summarized), ‘We don\u2019t think there\u2019s going to be one. We don\u2019t know that there\u2019s going to be one,\u2019 so why is this out there? (interruption) That\u2019s exactly right. It\u2019s to remind us conservatives that, ‘Hey, the Supreme Court, that\u2019s what we really care about, and if there\u2019s going to be one of these vacancies, we gotta hang tough here. We can\u2019t abandon the president. We can\u2019t go out on the limb here and threaten what might be a very contentious and yet successful nomination,\u2019 that\u2019s nonexistent yet.<\/p>\n

‘Court watchers always look for resignations at the end of the term, which always happens in June,\u2019 but it\u2019s an attempt to rally conservatives. It\u2019s an attempt also to change the subject. If we\u2019re such a small little loud voice out here, why the need to change the subject? Why the need to change it so people start rallying around a nonexistent, as we speak today, Supreme Court vacancy? Meanwhile, in the Washington Times: ‘Opposition to Illegals Bill Aiding Grass-Roots GOP — President Bush\u2019s immigration bill is hurting fundraising by the Republican National Committee, but fierce grass-roots opposition to the legislation is helping several state Republican parties. Tina Benkiser, chairwoman of the Republican Party in the president\u2019s home state of Texas, says raising money has been successful ‘in large part to our principled stance against illegal immigration.” Well, I\u2019ve always said, especially in politics, follow the money, and if people are giving money in droves to states where the Republican identity there is against this bill, and they\u2019re abandoning the RNC in droves because the perceived identity is pro-illegal immigration or the amnesty bill, then how do we interpret this Washington Post folderol that all this is insignificant?<\/p>\n

By the way, you people have resigned to it. You\u2019re not calling these congressmen as much. They probably don\u2019t think that you\u2019re calling as much because I don\u2019t think they\u2019re probably even answering the phone anymore. How many of you are calling out there and they\u2019re actually answering the phone at these various senators\u2019 offices? ‘Similar reports from other state Republican officials in Arizona, Colorado, Iowa and Delaware suggest that opposition to any form of amnesty for illegal aliens is a fundraising winner.\u2019 Okay, so we juxtapose this against the Washington Post story that reports just the opposite. It\u2019s no big deal. It\u2019s just a very, very small but loud bunch of caterwaulers out there. You and I are just a bunch of yahoos, folks! Make no mistake. Something else: the National Republican Senatorial Committee, not just the RNC, they are reporting similar distress. ‘The Senate committee, Republican senatorial committee raised 9.1 million through April. That\u2019s less than half of the #18 million raised by the Democrat Senatorial Campaign Committee during the same period.\u2019 So you can\u2019t fool me.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s something so fishy and suspicious about the Washington Post story and the idea that this is just an insignificant group of people. This is what I meant earlier, the Republicans have such a golden opportunity. These Democrats are on parade, on full display, uttering some of the most incredible nonsense last night at their debate, and meanwhile the Republicans are joining with the Drive-Bys in trying to marginalize their base. The conservative movement is the base of the Republican Party, and the Republicans — it\u2019s understandable that the Democrats and the media would try to marginalize conservatives and make it sound like there aren\u2019t that many of them, but for the Republicans to be doing it…? Look, I\u2019ve always known that the Republicans have their share of country club, blue-blooders in there that have never liked conservatives. They didn\u2019t even really like Reagan that much. It\u2019s always been a mystery to me, because that\u2019s when the Republican Party won, was when the conservative base was active and excited and engaged and dominant. It\u2019s almost like these people have a wish to be second tier.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, ladies and gentlemen, you and I, we\u2019re just a bunch of yahoos. We just don\u2019t get it. For example, this story today in the San Francisco Chronicle: ‘Guest Workers Have a Long History in the United States; Temporary Programs Become the Source of Permanent Labor Force.\u2019 It goes on and on and on to discuss the virtues of guest worker programs.<\/p>\n

”The purpose of guest worker programs is to add workers to the labor force but not add settlers to the population,\u2019 said Philip Martin, a UC Davis economist and leading immigration authority. ‘But the universal truism is that there is nothing more permanent than temporary workers, whether it\u2019s in Europe, whether it\u2019s in the Middle East, whether it\u2019s in Asia or whether it\u2019s in the United States. Guest worker programs tend to get larger, and last longer, than originally anticipated.” Now, he\u2019s trying to sound the warning bells here. That\u2019s the obligatory critic of the premise of the story. Let\u2019s go on to page three. So it\u2019s a universal truism. ‘Many analysts question whether a smaller program can succeed in moving illegal migrants to legal channels. ‘In order to do that, one would have to provide sufficient numbers of temporary visas,\u2019 [Deborah Meyers, a senior analyst with the Migration Policy Institute, a nonpartisan think tank.] said. ‘If you set an unreasonably low number, people will simply circumvent the program as they do now.” Well, damn! I thought I was a pretty smart guy, but I realize now that I am a yahoo. This is like saying, ‘The problem with bank robbery is the law. If we eliminate the law against robbing a bank, then the bank will never be robbed. You could go in there, take whatever you want or whatever you can get, and you\u2019re not breaking the law.\u2019<\/p>\n

So it\u2019s the same thing here! If we just expand to an unending infinite number the number of temporary visas, why, there won\u2019t be any ‘temporary workers.\u2019 Everybody will be a ‘worker.\u2019 You see how this works, folks? Why, try this on rape. Let\u2019s just ban the law on rape and that\u2019s how we wipe out the problem. There won\u2019t be any rape if there\u2019s no law against it. Let\u2019s wipe out the law on murder! Yes, ladies and gentlemen. There won\u2019t be any murders. The murder rate will go to zero once we don\u2019t have a law against it. ‘Moreover, the plan calls for temporary workers to come for two-year stints each followed by one year back in their home country for a maximum of six years residence.\u2019 Like hell that\u2019s going to happen! You may call for it, but nobody\u2019s going to do it. There aren\u2019t any enforcement mechanisms in this thing.<\/p>\n

‘They would not be offered permanent residence, though they could earn points through a separate merit system. Republicans have insisted that ‘temporary means temporary.\u2019 Yet the stricter such rules, the more likely they will be broken, experts said.\u2019 See, folks? The stricter you make a rule, the more likelihood the rule is to be broken. ‘Unless laws against hiring illegal workers are strictly enforced, such a program could create a new population of illegal immigrants who stay instead of return.\u2019 Bingo! That\u2019s exactly what this is designed to do, under the covers. That\u2019s exactly what this is designed to do. Nobody\u2019s talking about the incoming illegals after we legalize the 12 to 20 million that are already here. They\u2019re going to keep coming. Nobody\u2019s going to stop them. There\u2019s no incentive to stop it in this legislation. So see, the problem is we have too many rules, and they\u2019re too stringent. We need to relax the rules, relax the stringency, and then we won\u2019t have as many people breaking them. Try raising your kids this way.<\/p>\n

‘If immigrant advocates think the Senate bill is tough on temporary workers, it has nothing on Singapore, which pampers high-skilled migrants but punishes low-skilled workers who overstay their visas with mandatory caning and up to six months in prison.\u2019 So we\u2019re being told here that, hey, this bill isn\u2019t bad! I mean, look what they do in Singapore. You have a low skilled uneducated migrant that comes in, and if he overstays his welcome, he gets caned. We\u2019re good people in the United States! We\u2019re not going to cane these people, nor are we going to put \u2019em in prison for six months.<\/p>\n

Now, some of you might be saying, ‘Where\u2019s the common sense on this?\u2019 Democrats are who they are, but the media? The media is supposed to be objective, curious. Folks, you have to understand they\u2019re all liberals and you have to understand, to them this is discrimination — and they will not ‘discriminate.\u2019 A liberal feels like he is committing sacrilege, a sin for which he will burn in hell if he discriminates, and these people? (crying) They\u2019re just the poor and the downtrodden and the hungry and thirsty, and to not let them come here is discriminating against them.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Mary in Charlottesville, Virginia, welcome to the EIB Network. Hello.<\/p>\n

CALLER: 1951 baby boomer dittos, Rush.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, thank you. What month were you born?<\/p>\n

CALLER: July.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, I\u2019m six months older than you which means I\u2019m more mature.<\/p>\n

CALLER: And wiser.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Thank you. You\u2019re very kind.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, I went to a Republican fundraiser this Saturday and I have not heard such vitriol in one place directed against the president since Cindy Sheehan was camped out in Crawford.<\/p>\n

RUSH: (Laughing.) Jeez. Was there a particular candidate that the fundraiser was for, or was this the party?<\/p>\n

CALLER: It was a candidate. Well, it was for our wonderful Rob Bell, who is our delegate to the House delegates here. He wrote our anti-Kelo law, got it through, terrific guy. Virgil Goode was there. We love him. And besides being angry at the president, we\u2019re looking for a replacement for Senator John Warner, too. And it\u2019s the final straw with these RINOs —<\/p>\n

RUSH: All right, when you hear about or read the Washington Post story today that says you and I are just a bunch of yahoos and all the noise that you saw at this fundraiser, it\u2019s just a small majority of people. In fact, most of these candidates and senators are hearing that people are turning around on this, gotta get this passed. It\u2019s just a loud but very small bunch of yahoos out there that are making noise on immigration. How does it make you feel when you hear that?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, I\u2019m hoping the JFK incident will get the non-yahoos in the country turned around, including the president. I mean, these were immigrants and Muslim immigrants. The one thing on everybody\u2019s mind, first of all, is to enforce the border. And nobody\u2019s fooled around here about guest workers et cetera, et cetera. Virgil Goode thinks that it\u2019s conservative to say that the number of immigrants will go up 20,000, it\u2019s going to be like 30 or 40,000. It\u2019s really a scary thing. We\u2019re a very patriotic group. We\u2019ve been behind the president with the war on terror, and because of that we put up with his arm around Ted Kennedy with the educational bill —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I hear you.<\/p>\n

CALLER: — all that stuff, but the immigration bill is too important, it\u2019s security, it\u2019s our children\u2019s future. It\u2019s really got us up in arms. I think it\u2019s pretty widespread.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, that\u2019s the impression I got, too. But the story is out there that it\u2019s not widespread, that in fact whatever passion there was on it, it\u2019s cooling down now, and people like you are even changing their minds. That\u2019s what these Senators told the Washington Post. Yeah, you\u2019re changing your mind. They expected to get holy hell out there during the Memorial Day recess, and it didn\u2019t happen. That\u2019s what the Post says. They founded out that people are cooling down on this, a more reasoned view is taking hold, and they need to be smooth sailing for this bill this week, that\u2019s what the post story says. I\u2019ve got polling data out there that if you look deep in the internals, the polling data doesn\u2019t support the contentions. But nothing new in that. Mary thanks much, moving on to Cookeville, Tennessee, this is Jerry. Great to have you with us, sir, hello.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hey, how you doing, Rush?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Fine.<\/p>\n

CALLER: This weekend, Senator Lamar came into town.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Lamar Alexander, you mean?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, Senator Lamar Alexander. And I guess he kind of thought it was just going to be a little chitchat deal, and he talked a little bit, and there was kind of a self-promotion deal like most of them do. And one woman, she told him, she said, senator, she said, ‘Senator, we have no faith in the leadership. If you guys aren\u2019t going to enforce the laws we have now, why should we believe you with the new laws?\u2019 Another gentleman wanted to know why they allowed La Raza to help write the bill. Another man wanted to know why we could not speak as a group, answer as a group, afterwards, instead of just going up one on one where you couldn\u2019t hear him after. And then I asked the crowd, ‘Could I see a show of hands who supports this immigration bill.\u2019 No hands went up.<\/p>\n

RUSH: How many people were there?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh, I figure about 150. And I asked him, can I see a show of hands of people who oppose it? And everybody in the room raised their hand.<\/p>\n

RUSH: What did Senator Alexander do when he saw all this?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, he kind of looked shocked, to be truthful. When I did get a chance to speak with him I told him if he votes for this I will not vote him ever again. I told him I\u2019ve supported him in the past. ‘I think you\u2019re a good man, but you\u2019re wrong on this.\u2019 And he told me that this bill will help strengthen the border to get new Border Patrol agents. I said, ‘Well, the agents who do their job like agent Compean and Ramos, they do their job, they go to prison. The drug dealer is walking free.\u2019<\/p>\n

RUSH: About this border secure business, I wish I could remember where this was. Do you know that even as we speak they are cutting the number of agents on the border? Not just agents, but all kinds of security people? The Guard\u2019s being pulled out of there, something like that. It might have been National Review Online where I read this. Everybody was perplexed. Here you\u2019re trying to sell a bill, and you\u2019re telling people, ‘You\u2019re wrong about security and you\u2019re wrong about amnesty. We\u2019re going to really beef up the border, and this isn\u2019t amnesty.\u2019 Then they just start pulling people off the border. It was perplexing to many people, thought it was a lousy sales technique. Well, it will be interesting to see. I think it\u2019s indicative here of the Washington Post story, I think they\u2019re going to ram this bill through the Senate and get it out of there and take it to the House and see what happens there. This is one of those instances where he listened to you and he heard what you had to say, but I think people are committed to it. I don\u2019t think they\u2019ll be able to talk him out of it. We\u2019ll have to wait and see. But this Post story is going to give these people all kinds of cover here, folks. You have to understand it\u2019s going to give \u2019em cover. ‘Oh, look at this, the opposition is dying down, even coming around to seeing it our way. It\u2019s just a bunch of people out there, really mild voices, not very many of them.\u2019<\/p>\n

So the message is going up, ‘Don\u2019t be intimidated by these yahoos that are screaming bloody murder because there aren\u2019t that many of them. They\u2019re just a budge of wacko conservatives anyway.\u2019 There are people asking me, ‘Why do you think Hillary Clinton\u2019s got 80% chance?\u2019 Well, because of what\u2019s happening to the Republican Party right now. I hate to use the word war, but I mean there\u2019s going to be a battle within the Republican Party for who controls it, who defines it and who shapes it. The country club blue-blood types or the conservatives. Make no mistake about it, the country club blue-blooders have resented the conservative dominance of their party for as long as Ronald Reagan brought it about.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
