RUSH: Here\u2019s Victor in Stockton, Missouri. Victor, glad you waited. Welcome to the EIB Network.<\/p>\n

CALLER: How are you today, Rush?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Just fine. I couldn\u2019t be better.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I have a question for you.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Some years ago you were belittling the idea that there was an internal conspiracy to overthrow the Constitution and the government, and I\u2019m wondering if you still have that opinion.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Of course I do. An internal conspiracy to overthrow the Constitution or the government? Yeah, I\u2019m still dubious of that.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Mmm-hmm.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You have evidence?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, I just look at the way things are going, and I look back to when Reagan was president, and he was engaged in the large military buildup during that time. I just have a theory that the people who were behind the Soviet Union at that time, decided they were not going to ride that horse to victory, so they decided they\u2019d have to take another approach, and I think they figured out that the best way to do it is to go after the biggest, baddest guy on the block, and the only way to do that was do it politically, and I think they set their sights on the Democratic Party, which was in power at the time, at least in Congress.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Who\u2019s the biggest, baddest guy on the block? Us?<\/p>\n

CALLER: The United States, yeah.<\/p>\n

RUSH: The United States. Yeah. (mumbling)<\/p>\n

CALLER: If they take over a political party, and ride that horse to victory, then I think they would have a much better shot.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Now, wait. That\u2019s going a little bit far. I don\u2019t think that these internal conspiracists would have to take over a party. I think they already have one.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right.<\/p>\n

RUSH: See, here\u2019s the thing, Victor. I do think in this country that there are plenty of people — whether they\u2019re conspiring? You and I are conspiring right now in talking about this. I know what you mean by conspiracy. I don\u2019t think, for example, that there\u2019s a media conspiracy. I don\u2019t think there has to be a media conspiracy. They all think alike as it is. They don\u2019t have to get together in order to figure out what they all think and believe and are going to say. It just is the way they are.<\/p>\n

CALLER: You don\u2019t think there\u2019s a Joseph Goebbels somewhere with a printing machine that sends out all the propaganda they put out that drives the media?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Of course they have people at the headquarters that fax up talking points to pundits that go out there and so forth, but that\u2019s not being done in the closet. That\u2019s out in the open. Everybody knows that\u2019s going on.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, the ones you can see I think are in the open.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, there aren\u2019t any secret talking points going out there. There\u2019s no way to keep that stuff secret.<\/p>\n

CALLER: You don\u2019t think the George Soroses of the world would just love to get control of the Congress of the United States?<\/p>\n

RUSH: I think George Soros would love to reshape this country. I think a whole bunch of liberals would like to destroy the institutions and traditions that have made the country great, and rebuild it in their own vision, yeah. But that\u2019s happening right in front of our eyes, Victor. It\u2019s not a conspiracy.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, I don\u2019t… See, I\u2019m not really sure whether using the Leninist model or they\u2019re using a Nazi model, but I see the tactics of — of —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Wait. The Leninist or Nazi model, did you say?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yes, because I see them using the same tactics that —<\/p>\n

RUSH: It\u2019s neither one. They\u2019re using the Stalinist model.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right! There you go. There you go.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You know, Lenin and the Nazis went out and murdered their opponents in mass murder. We haven\u2019t gotten to that point yet here.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, but they didn\u2019t get to power until they had convinced the people to vote them in.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, but the Democrats have had power all these years and they have not engaged in mass murder of conservatives and so forth. It\u2019s not going to happen.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I don\u2019t think that Democrats would do that.<\/p>\n

RUSH: It\u2019s not going to happen.<\/p>\n

CALLER: But I think… See, I have a difference between what I consider a liberal and what I consider a Marxist, or socialist, or a Stalinist.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, that\u2019s a very fine line when you start parsing. Liberals and socialists, you can hardly see the space between \u2019em, Victor!<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, there\u2019s a difference between a socialist &agrave; la Sweden and a socialist &agrave; la Marxist or Hitler.<\/p>\n

RUSH: A socialist in Sweden doesn\u2019t have any power. They\u2019re neutral, so they\u2019re just destroying themselves.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Exactly, but the idea is if they could get power and they could have control of the US Armed Forces, then they could reshape the world any way they want to.<\/p>\n

RUSH: They already did that. Bill Clinton controlled the Armed Forces for two terms.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Let me ask you one more question, too.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Do you think that we can solve this immigration problem without first solving the abortion problem? In other words, does fifteen million Mexicans replace 45 million Americans?<\/p>\n

RUSH: I think you\u2019ve probably heard me make this point. I think one of the reasons the proponents of illegal immigration are so adamant here is we have aborted 40 million would-be Americans.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right.<\/p>\n

RUSH: The bodies need to be replaced. Another reason is for no other reason than Social Security taxes!<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, I understand that point because I heard you say that before, and I agree with that, but I look at our society as being a consumer-based society, and when you take that many people out who would already be having children now — and we have need for manpower in the Armed Forces. We have need for manpower in all kinds of different fields, and I\u2019m wondering what we would be doing if we didn\u2019t have notices 15 million Mexicans taking some of these jobs, and serving in the Armed Forces for that matter?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, it\u2019s a what-if. It\u2019s an ‘if\u2019 question, and ‘if\u2019 is for children. What is, is, and we have aborted 40 million. So you can ask, ‘What if we hadn\u2019t?\u2019 Now, you can maybe look at that argument and say, ‘Okay, we\u2019re going to stop all these abortions,\u2019 but you gotta be realistic.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I don\u2019t think you can get rid of Roe v. Wade, but I think there has to be an effort somewhere along the line.<\/p>\n

RUSH: I think it\u2019s in the process of working. I think it\u2019s changing people\u2019s minds and hearts and having a greater respect for life. But these battles, Victor, have always been fought. There have always been different ideologies, political parties and partisanship that has roiled the country since the beginning of time, and the beginning of our founding. The Civil War, that period was… That period, people here alive today would not believe it if they really dug deep and found out the kind of divides and the things that politicians and public figures were saying about each other. This stuff is always happening. You\u2019re always going to have a battle for control because this is all about power. If there are a bunch of conspiracies out there that we don\u2019t know about, Victor, they\u2019re pretty pathetic. They shoulda taken over by now. If they\u2019re as powerful as we all assign them to be — well, you assign them to be — we ought to all be in jail now anyway. We ought to all have our freedom gone. George Soros should be representing this country at the UN. But George Soros lost the election in 2004. His candidate went down in flames. How does that happen? Well, you can\u2019t say, ‘Well, the conspiracists did that just to set us up and get us to relax.\u2019 If they were that all powerful, they would have already taken over. They would have neutered the US military.<\/p>\n

Most of this stuff is happening right out in the open, and it\u2019s tough enough to get some people to believe what they\u2019re actually seeing, when you explain it to them. That\u2019s tough enough. If you start getting into all this garbage, what\u2019s going on behind the scenes that we can\u2019t see and these giant puppet masters pulling the strings of the people that we can see, you\u2019re going to lose everybody, Victor. Nobody is going to want to believe that in the first place. Life in this country is too good. There\u2019s too much affluence — well, not too much, but there\u2019s great opportunity for affluence in this country. We\u2019ve never had a better economy than we have today. We\u2019ve never had a better future than we have here. Everybody is feeling pretty pumped up because we stopped a huge, horrible piece of legislation. How\u2019d the conspiracists let that happen? You know, that shouldn\u2019t have happened. That was the Comprehensive Destroy the Republican Party Act of 2007, and somehow, the people staved it off. One more thing about this abortion business, Victor. For all this talk about ‘jobs Americans won\u2019t do\u2019 and all of that, one of the things that I think is going on in this country and has been for the longest time is a softening of too much of our young population. We\u2019re treating them as babies into their twenties and thirties. We make excuses for them when they still live at home with mom and dad when they\u2019re 35.<\/p>\n

We are afraid to raise kids and toughen them up. Everybody feels entitled to something — too many people, not everybody. Too many people think they\u2019re owed something because they\u2019re Americans, that just by being born and getting up and being Americans every day, there\u2019s something valorous in that. I think we can overcome all these problems that we have with the constant reinforcement of a conservative culture and a morality base, and occasionally being able to stop or check the advances that the liberals are trying to make. You talk about conspiracies? I\u2019ll mention it in a way that you will relate to it: if you want to talk about people that were hidden, who are doing things that we don\u2019t see — well, I see \u2019em. I don\u2019t see them but I know they\u2019re there. All these little Ivy League liberals come out of these schools, and they go there for one reason: Parents and family went there. They\u2019re legacied in there, and they have an objective, and that objective is to run the government at every level, from appointed positions, highly level appointment positions to just menial, bureaucratic, career positions. But their goal is to get hold of as much of the fabric of the government of this country as possible in a way that insulates them from elections, i.e., the judiciary, and the academic professors. Those people have tenure. You can\u2019t do anything about them, no matter how outrageously bad and incompetent and poisonous they are.<\/p>\n

So liberals have done a good job of insulating themselves. We know they\u2019re there and we know what they\u2019re doing. We may not see them in the process of doing it, but we know they\u2019re there. Conservatives on the other hand, they don\u2019t want to run government. They want to get it out of our way. We want to get government as small and as responsible as possible. We\u2019re not raising our kids to go to the Ivy League and come out and wear these striped pants and these stupid looking diplomat shoes that they all wear. They look like robots coming out of there! They get themselves embedded in the state department, the CIA and the Pentagon, and when new presidents don\u2019t clear out as much of the chaff as they can, and they\u2019re there, and they can destroy future incoming administrations, like this happened to Bush. He didn\u2019t get rid of enough of these people because of the ‘new tone.\u2019 But there are reasons and there are explanations for all of this, and you have to be honest about it because that\u2019s the only way you can fight it and oppose it, which is what we\u2019re doing. I\u2019ll tell you what, I feel pretty optimistic about all this. The last 19 years, try to think where we would be had there not been the evolution of this new media. If you want to think about something, think about that, because that did happen, and it\u2019s a great illustration of how it can continue to happen. There are all kinds of reasons to be optimistic out there. You\u2019re an American, and you\u2019re not going to give up.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
