RUSH: Brian, St. Augustine, Florida. I really, really, really appreciate your waiting. Thank you.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Thanks, Rush. I just wanted to say that Kavanaugh is the scapegoat for all of the women who have been sexually assaulted but were afraid or embarrassed to report it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well… (sigh) You may have a point. I think you\u2019re right in line with one of my newfound theories, and it\u2019s actually not a newfound theory. What it is is a very late arrival on my part of being able to verbalize it. You\u2019ve heard over the years, “Liberalism\u2019s a mental disease,” and there are all kinds of people have said that, and I thought, “That\u2019s too simplistic, and besides, it\u2019s not effective. Even if it\u2019s true, it\u2019s not gonna be effective to say that.”<\/p>\n

But that doesn\u2019t erase the fact that we\u2019re dealing with some genuine, incomprehensible emotional problems on the part of these people, and I have to give credit where credit is due. It was a little blurb by Jim Geraghty at National Review<\/a> that caused the explosion of brain synapses in the frontal lobe here. He said… I\u2019m paraphrasing; I don\u2019t have it right in front of me. But he said, “I don\u2019t even think this is what it is.”<\/p>\n

He said, “I think psychological disorders, people with psychological disorders have become liberals in politics, that psychological disorders… People who have them, have brought their disorders into politics — and rather than just a singular thing that happened to them, they make it all about the country did it to them or an entire population did it to them,” and I think that\u2019s exactly what liberalism is and has become, and that\u2019s where we agree.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Folks, here is the Jim Geraghty quote from National Review. “The more time I spend covering politics, the more I\u2019m convinced that a significant chunk of grassroots political activists aren\u2019t really arguing about politics at all. These folks are actually grappling with personal psychological issues and projecting it onto the world of politics.”<\/p>\n

Bingo!<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been searching for that description for years! I have no problem admitting that I was unable to put this together. It\u2019s one of the rare moments I was unable to. This is exactly right! We\u2019re dealing with people who have suffered some kind of psychological disorder; they\u2019ve turned to politics for the solution — or the revenge is actually what they\u2019re looking for — and they don\u2019t just want revenge against whoever did whatever to them.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>They are now demanding that every representative of the group that the individual that did something to them belongs to be made to pay a price for it. It\u2019s what the… Well, the #MeToo, in large part, was never bipartisan. It was thought to be, said to be, but it never was. Okay, even if it was, it\u2019s been co-opted by the Democrat Party. Look at the Occupy Wall Street movement or look at Black Lives Matter. Take any left-wing group that you want.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s made up of people who for some reason think they have been unjustly mistreated by somebody, and instead of dealing with that in their lives, they enter politics, and they demand that the Democrat Party take up their cause. The Democrat Party willingly has. The Democrat Party has become the party of all of these disparate constituency groups with their singular causes.<\/p>\n

Because the Democrat Party realizes that they can combine all of these things into a singular assault on the concept of America, that America is responsible for what happened these people! That capitalism is responsible! That the power structure, that the founding is responsible. So people with psychological disorders are being granted the status of normalcy, and then the big donors come along and underwrite them and fund their efforts.<\/p>\n

And they become political movements, and then they become victims — and that, of course, allows them to blame everybody for what has gone wrong in their lives. And then they demand reciprocity or revenge or what have you. I contend to you that most people on our side have no idea how to deal with this. No idea whatsoever. So we end up in debates about (chuckles) boys who want to pretend to be girls so they can go in girls\u2019 bathrooms, and it becomes legitimate.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s sick in many instances. Not that specifically, but just the whole concept of what is happening here. It is a violent, bullying, intimidating movement that has been constructed to push all of these disparate, various agendas — and the target is America. The target is America, as founded. The target is American capitalism. So when our caller says that Kavanaugh is simply a stand-in for men who have abused every woman out there, he\u2019s right.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Blasey Ford will end up being supported by other women who\u2019ve been abused. Whether she\u2019s telling the truth or not, it doesn\u2019t matter! Because it did happen to them. These women we don\u2019t know that are out there watching this, it did happen to them — and by God, somebody\u2019s gonna pay for it. In this case, it\u2019d be Kavanaugh. That\u2019s how they\u2019re gonna be heard, rather than just deal with the specific incident that happened to them.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the same thing, I think, with Black Lives Matter or the NFL players kneeling for the anthem. “All cops are bad. Every white cop is a racist. Every black convict is innocent.” Every instance here points to the country at large as being responsible, in unfairness, in bias, in discrimination, in racism, all of this. The Democrat Party is the organizing party, the collection agency for all of these complaints. The Democrat Party\u2019s happy to make victims out of anybody who wants to be one.<\/p>\n

The Democrat Party is happy to promise these people that they\u2019ll fix it — and they never do. They never do! The rage and the anger never ends. It only gets worse because the Democrats don\u2019t fix anything — and finally, it doesn\u2019t even depend upon being fixed. It just means, “Somebody\u2019s gotta pay! In this case, Kavanaugh! He\u2019s gonna pay, whether he did it or not.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
