It\u2019s great to have you, sir.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, you\u2019re a national treasure in a lot of people\u2019s books down here in Florida.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I\u2019ve been listening to you on WFLA. Ted Webb turned me on to you in the August of \u201988.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: We own Tampa-St. Pete! WFLA is a fabulous affiliate, a fabulous station. We made that station but it\u2019s still a good station.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I know it. I was born and raised in St. Louis, and went to school and bummed around with Rip and Kid Hyland, sons of Bob.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Is that right? <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well!<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I know you\u2019re a big fan of aviation, and you\u2019re an excellent aficionado of the aviation community.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Let me explain something. You\u2019re getting a little inside here. Bob Hyland was the legendary general manager and vice president of KMOX in St. Louis when they had 48 and 50 shares. He\u2019s since passed away. But it is his two children is who Michael was referring to. Now, what&#8230;? Of course I\u2019m big on aviation.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I loved your eulogy of Bob Hyland, too, and Jack Buck. The aviation community, why can\u2019t we use more of those unmanned aerial vehicles in the Middle East to ferret out these bomb planters in the middle of the night, as they did one time on television on a national broadcast show, either NBC or CBS or ABC showed that they\u2019re &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, I think the answer to that is that there are people in the Pentagon who think that it\u2019s not fair.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, I\u2019m sorry.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Because it is Taliban and the Al-Qaeda guys don\u2019t have their own. They\u2019re just a little ragtag bunch of terrorists out there, and we gotta make sure we don\u2019t offend the rest of the world here.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Why do we have to fight Seventh Century terrorists with Seventh Century methods? <\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You\u2019re singing everybody\u2019s song here. Why in the world didn\u2019t we just go into Iraq and clean the place out? You know, we\u2019re the United States of America &#8212; and there\u2019s a reason for this. We don\u2019t want to destroy the country, but we are also concerned about our image in the world and so forth. When that governs what you do, you may as well forget it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Michael in St. Petersburg, Florida, you\u2019re next.
