Was that not great in this thing? And those questions that I asked were among some of the finest anybody\u2019s ever been asked, and they drew him out.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: That\u2019s for sure &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: (laughing)<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: &#8212; and it just got me to thinking, the US public is longing for someone that will not waffle &#8212; or stand up for right, and just like the liberals have no absolutes, so they don\u2019t know what\u2019s right or wrong, and I\u2019m also tired of the minorities being offended. I say, &#8216;Suck it up or leave this wonderful society.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, not just minorities. You know, I have a big bugaboo about people that run around being offended all the time. I think it\u2019s destructive, and I hate the fact that they\u2019ve got power. The Offended can shut down anything that offends them. Being offended has become a liberal industry. But I\u2019ll tell you something: I\u2019m glad that you liked the Bobby Jindal interview, because he was fabulous. It\u2019s in the current issue of the Limbaugh Letter, the most widely read newsletter, political newsletter, in the country. He was unstoppable. He was on fire during the whole interview. Questions, of course, are well worth reading, too, but what he said&#8230; (laughing) About this offended business, folks, I\u2019ve been through this riff once before, couple times, maybe, but I want to go through this again because The Offended in our society are shutting a lot of things down: People offended by the color of ice cream, people offended by the temperature of coffee, people offended by what they claim to be able to smell cigar smoke from miles away or, you know, hundreds of feet away! To be offended is to grant all kinds of other people power over the way you feel about things, and it\u2019s not worth that. I wouldn\u2019t any more give anybody the right to offend me &#8212; especially with words! Words? People are running around geting all blown out of proportion over words? <\/p>\n<p>&#8216;That offends me!\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Good, be offended! If you want to ruin your life, you want to give people that kind of power to offend you and make you feel a certain way, go ahead. But it\u2019s not&#8230; I would take pride if I were you, in not being offended by people and by things that they say. It\u2019s just a waste of energy. It grants them way too much power, more than they deserve.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Jack in Glenford, Ohio, nice to have you on the EIB Network. Hello.
