Great to have you. I\u2019m glad you called.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Thank you, Rush. Great to talk to you.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: My pleasure. Great you\u2019re here.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I have a wonderful story to share with you and your listeners about the Rush Revere books. My daughter, who is in sixth grade at an elementary school, has read them all probably twice. She does book reports on them every year. And her librarian came up to me last week and said, &#8220;I heard your daughter reads and has all the Rush Revere books, and I was wondering if you would donate them,&#8221; \u2019cause she\u2019s read them all, &#8220;because I\u2019d like to have them in the library for the kids so they have access to them.&#8221; I was so shocked because she did tell me, you know, she\u2019s a liberal. But she heard that they were good, and she wanted the kids to have access.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rushrevere.com\/index.php\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-263756\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-020918-Revere.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-020918-Revere.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-020918-Revere-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a>RUSH: Did you believe her?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I was really taken aback. She said another mom had said, you know, her kid read one and that they were good. And I told her, you know, I know&#8230; You know, \u2019cause schools are very liberal. This one\u2019s not as liberal as most. But for her to admit that and, you know&#8230; I just wanted to hug her. So there\u2019s hope! There\u2019s hope for our country, I think.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Did you hug her?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I did.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Oh, that\u2019s sweet.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I did. Yeah. So I am gonna donate these books. I\u2019m actually not gonna donate my books because my daughter still reads them. I told her I\u2019d buy her a set for the library &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Now, wait &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: &#8212; and she said yes.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. You\u2019re getting ahead of me here for just a second. We\u2019ll deal with that here in just a second. Did she hug you back, or did she stand there like a statue when you hugged her?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Oh, no. She was a sweetheart. She really, really was sincere about getting these books in her library because she wants the kids to have access.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: This really is incredible.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I know!<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You have a woman who says that she\u2019s a liberal but actually wants these books because she\u2019s heard they\u2019re good.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Hmm.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: And how fair is that, you know?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: How long ago did this happen?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: About four days ago.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: So she doesn\u2019t have any books yet?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: She has the first. I said, &#8220;Do you have any of them?&#8221; She said she does have the first one, the Brave Pilgrims.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Any indication that she herself has read it, or is she just going so &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Oh, no.

(sigh)<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: That\u2019s true.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: They get offended. They get offended where most people laugh. Well, look, I\u2019m gonna deal with this&#8230; Rather than attach my normal reaction: &#8220;Well, wait \u2019til she sees it and she\u2019ll reverse all this.&#8221; I\u2019m not gonna do that.

Now, I\u2019m gonna hold it up here. I know you\u2019re not watching, but the one I\u2019ve got here is probably about a foot-and-a-half long.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Oh.

I told her and I told this librarian, I said, &#8220;You know, they\u2019re very&#8230; The history is accurate.&#8221; So, you know, that\u2019s another important part of the books.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, you know, I could be very cynical and say, &#8220;She won\u2019t recognize it, then,&#8221; but I\u2019m not.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: (laughing) Exactly.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: No, no. I wouldn\u2019t dare say that. I\u2019m not gonna say that now. This is actually very cool. It\u2019s very sweet.

We\u2019ll get your address, and we\u2019ll get a whole package of stuff that we send out from the Revere bunch next week to you.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I think that would be awesome. Maybe I can even get her to listen to you.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Ha! That would be great, too.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: What do you think? Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: If you could pull that off &#8212; if you could pull that off &#8212; that\u2019d be miraculous.
