There was an NPR story out of Ohio about a poor family that because of the status of the U.S. economy, could no longer afford to eat meat. Did you see that story? They could not. It was a mother and daughter. You couldn\u2019t tell which was which in the picture. Honest to God, folks, you could not tell which was which. This tag team had 800 pounds. That was not mentioned anywhere in the story, but the picture, you couldn\u2019t miss this. So we have NPR dutifully reporting the squalid conditions, the poverty-level conditions. These poor Ohioans have to work in the only place that they can possibly get a job is within walking distance. I forget what the company is, but the company\u2019s getting ready to move. And it was just one of the biggest sob stories I have ever read and it was all great detail here. I read this, and my mouth is hanging open. I\u2019m looking at the accompanying pictures, my mouth is hanging open. I cannot believe I\u2019m reading this. I\u2019m just going, &#8216;Damn, how does this story even get written?\u2019 At least if somebody at NPR was thinking, &#8216;Don\u2019t publish these pictures&#8230;\u2019 My friends, I kid you not. You are looking at combined tonnage here of 800 pounds, this mother and daughter in the story about how they couldn\u2019t afford meat. They can afford something. I think, folks, a lot of it is probably delivered. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: It was NPR that did the story on the mother and daughter in Ohio who can\u2019t afford meat. It was on All Things Considered. The headline here is, &#8216;For Some Ohioans, Even Meat Is Out Of Reach &#8212; A generation ago, the livelihood of Gloria Nunez\u2019s family was built on cars. Her father worked at General Motors for 45 years &#8230; Nunez and her six siblings grew up middle class. Things have changed considerably for this Ohio family. Nunez\u2019s van broke down last fall. Now, her 19-year-old daughter has no reliable transportation out of their subsidized housing complex in Fostoria, 40 miles south of Toledo&#8230; &#8216; <\/p>\n<p>Now, that\u2019s all you need to know. Now, for those of you watching on the Dittocam, I\u2019m going to attempt to zoom in so that you can see the picture of the subjects of this sob story. Keep in mind now: &#8216;For Some Ohioans, Even Meat Is Out Of Reach.\u2019 This is a terribly sad story. Let\u2019s see. I\u2019m trying to do this at the same time. All right, there we go. Do you see that? Let me straighten it out here. I\u2019m giving the people watching on the Dittocam a chance to see this. That\u2019s the lovely mother and daughter family no longer able to afford meat. Well, you can\u2019t tell which one\u2019s the mother and which one\u2019s the daughter. <\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s what I was saying. You just can\u2019t. Now, I don\u2019t know. When I saw this, I said, &#8216;How in the world do you take this seriously?\u2019 Now, I realize this is a tease for those of you that aren\u2019t able to see the program on the Dittocam, but that means you should sign up. You should become a subscriber. You can watch the program here every day at www.RushLimbaugh.com. Yeah. Here, okay. People want to see it one more time. I\u2019m going to throw it up there one more time. Here we go. Is that focused? Is it focused? Okay, good. That\u2019s the Nunez family after the van broke down. You see what I mean about this? They\u2019re getting something to eat, and somebody has to be delivering it to them. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: I didn\u2019t mention this when this happened, folks, and many of you are going to think that this is harsh and callous.
