RUSH: Now Hillary\u2019s got a new ad out. I\u2019ve seen the video of the ad. It really is sort of a takeoff on the little daisy ad that Johnson ran against Goldwater in 1964, the little girl out there picking daisies and all of a sudden nuclear detonation. They don\u2019t actually show the nuclear detonation, the screen goes dark, and the idea was that Goldwater would be just dangerous, he\u2019d start a nuclear war, we\u2019d all be dead. So here is the ad. It\u2019s entitled, ‘It\u2019s three a.m., do you know where Bill Clinton is?\u2019<\/p>\n

<\/a>ANNOUNCER: It\u2019s three a.m., and your children are safe and asleep, but there\u2019s a phone in the White House, and it\u2019s ringing. Something\u2019s happening in the world. Your vote will decide who answers that call. Whether it\u2019s someone who already knows the world\u2019s leaders, knows the military, someone tested and ready to lead in a dangerous world. It\u2019s three a.m., and your children are safe and asleep. Who do you want answering the phone?<\/p>\n

HILLARY: I\u2019m Hillary Clinton, and I approved this message.<\/p>\n

RUSH: By the way, for those of you wondering there is no video of Hillary in bed answering the phone, but it is sort of dark, this commercial. Now, no mention of Bill. That\u2019s why I said, ‘It\u2019s three a.m., do you know where Bill Clinton is?\u2019 Obama\u2019s mad. Obama\u2019s mad at the ad. (laughing) Obama ‘accused his rival Hillary Rodham Clinton on Friday of trying to ‘scare up votes\u2019 with a television ad showing sleeping children and asking who would be more qualified to answer a national security emergency call at 3 a.m. ‘We\u2019ve seen these ads before,\u2019 the Illinois senator said while campaigning in Texas. ‘They\u2019re the kind that play on peoples\u2019 fears to scare up votes. Well, it won\u2019t work this time. Because the question is not about picking up the phone. The question is: What kind of judgment will you make when you answer?” (laughing) I mean, you gotta give the point to Obama. Here\u2019s George Stephanopoulos, Good Morning America today, Chris Cuomo talking to Stephanopoulos, they play the ad, Cuomo says, ‘Well, imagery, the angle is obvious. It does smack of some earlier campaigns that were not successful, right, George? Well, what do you think makes this work from Hillary\u2019s perspective?\u2019<\/p>\n

STEPHANOPOULOS: This is the nuclear option. This is the big gun. It\u2019s either going to work or it\u2019s going to blow back against the person who\u2019s running it. Now, it does have echoes of the infamous 1964 ad, the daisy ad. Lyndon Johnson ran that against Barry Goldwater, only ran it once. You see a nuclear cloud coming up behind the little girl there. It has even more echoes of the ad that ran in 1984 when former vice president Walter Mondale was running against Gary Hart, the insurgent fresh face in the campaign, and all you saw was that red phone ringing on the desk of the Oval Office.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, this is just too delicious. All the whining, Hillary complaining that the women are abandoning –well, women complaining that women are abandoning her and that she\u2019s going to make a move to get women votes. The complaining about a white comedian playing Obama on Saturday Night Live, can\u2019t use his middle name, can\u2019t call him a liberal, it\u2019s just too juicy. Made to order. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Okay, Obama? Somebody in the Obama campaign, listen up. Yo! We have a way for you to respond to Hillary\u2019s ad that you don\u2019t dig. By the way, I think that ad is one of the greatest ads, for McCain, that could be produced! (laughs) I mean if you\u2019re serious about having somebody knows what they\u2019re doing at three a.m. when the phone rings and it\u2019s the national emergency, there\u2019s one person of these three that is imminently qualified. That\u2019s a great ad for McCain that the Democrats are running. It\u2019s a good thing, because McCain\u2019s out of money. But here Obama and anybody in the Obama campaign, is a perfect way to respond. You gotta do this light heartedly. You people are whining too much. You are moaning. Your whole campaign is going, ‘Oh, woe is us.\u2019 You\u2019re bigger than that. You\u2019re running for president of the United States! You\u2019re carrying the torch for a lot of people here. So you need to produce your own ad. You go back and you make it look as similar to Hillary\u2019s ad as possible. It\u2019s 3:15. The phone, which started ringing at three o\u2019clock, is still ringing. <\/p>\n

Nobody\u2019s answered it, because Hillary is beating the hell out of Bill for just showing up after a night out with an intern or whatever — and then you have your little text or your audio track, which says, ‘It\u2019s not a question of who\u2019s going to be there at three o\u2019clock in the morning. It is, ‘At 3:15, will somebody actually have answered the phone by then instead of trying to corral a family member who cannot obey?\u2019 Or some such thing as this, and make it funny. I mean, look, folks, you don\u2019t know. I think this is true. I think there are some real hard feelings creeping into all this now. I think Clinton and Hillary are seething at what\u2019s happened to them here. They\u2019re seething that the media\u2019s now treating them like Republicans. They are angry at the Drive-Bys for giving Obama a total pass on virtually everything. The Clintons… She said they\u2019re going to bring out the kitchen sink, which is an interesting thing. That\u2019s quite a role reversal for a feminist leader to start talking about using the kitchen sink, which is what feminists taught women to avoid. Let somebody else go to the kitchen sink. <\/p>\n

Here\u2019s Hillary throwing the kitchen sink including the picture, any number of things, and they are all backfiring. For you Clintons, I got a way for you to respond to Obama, particularly Michelle Obama — and I know, if you\u2019re Bill and Hillary, if you\u2019re the Clinton campaign; Michelle Obama rips you a new one. You can\u2019t stand her. None of this is making any sense. None of this computes. You people were the first black president and co-president. None of this makes any sense. Now this woman, Michelle Obama, is out there kicking Hillary in the uterus over the way she raised Chelsea. So, Michelle Obama is out there urging all these poor people in Zanesville, Ohio, to avoid hedge funds, corporate law, or anything else corporate. Well, for all of these years the feminazis had been beating up women in this country around the ears — just pounding them constantly — trying to convince American women that they should not be nurses, that they should not be teachers. They should not be mothers or social workers. They should not do the traditional female nurturing things. They should not be helpers.<\/p>\n

They were supposed to go out in the corporate world! They were supposed to climb the corporate ladder, and they were supposed to blast through the corporate ceiling, the glass ceiling. They were supposed to become lawyers; they were supposed to become business people. So, Mrs. Clinton, what the hell is it now? Michelle Obama\u2019s not for women; she\u2019s for the subjugation of women! She is for the subordination of women. Michelle Obama wants to keep women barefoot and pregnant and poor, in the home at the kitchen — or cleaning somebody\u2019s bedpan in the hospital. You guys are getting too wrapped up here in personality. You need somebody like me running both these campaigns. I have the perfect Obama response ad. I have the perfect Hillary response to Michelle Obama after the kick in the uterus over Chelsea and the way she was raised. I don\u2019t want to have to play funeral music next Wednesday, folks, when Mrs. Clinton gets blown out, here. I really don\u2019t. I want this to go on. You couldn\u2019t write a script and ask for this and get it, and we\u2019ve got it. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
