RUSH: The sitcom continues, ladies and gentlemen, unabated. Barack Obama, the president-elect, poor guy, I believe him. I saw his press conference today, and Obama said he had no knowledge, had no idea any of this was going on. I think we have no choice but than to believe the president-select. Look, ladies and gentlemen, this man, a tough row to hoe here. This man is walking a straight line in a crooked world. He is able to walk on the cesspool that is Illinois and Chicago politics without being touched by it. You would think the way they\u2019re starting to talk about this now that Rod Blagojevich was starring in One Flew Over the Cuckoo\u2019s Nest instead of being a casting director in a sitcom. But that\u2019s exactly what he is. I mean, everybody on television is saying now that Rod Blagojevich is a nut, and this is the defense, this is what they\u2019re setting up. This is exactly how the Clintons did it, the nuts and sluts defense. In this case the nuts defense, ‘Blagojevich, we can\u2019t believe anything Blagojevich says, he\u2019s a nut. I mean, he might have said it, but he\u2019s insane.\u2019 The Drive-Bys have picked up on this. We have a montage from yesterday and last night.<\/p>\n

MADDOW: Hometown folks use words like sociopath, delusional and compulsive to describe their governor. <\/p>\n

BARNICLE: There\u2019s a delusional aspect clearly to Blagojevich. <\/p>\n

GERGEN: He is delusional. <\/p>\n

TOOBIN: The delusional nature of Blagojevich. <\/p>\n

COLMES: The governor was delusional. <\/p>\n

CADDELL: I\u2019ve been told by people for some years that he was a little on the touched side. <\/p>\n

PAGE: He has a long reputation for being a little weird. <\/p>\n

BROWNSTEIN: These quotes from him do not suggest mental balance. <\/p>\n

BROWN: Blagojevich seemed obsessed in this crazy, manic way. <\/p>\n

BARNICLE: Delusional. <\/p>\n

OLBERMANN: A literally crazy governor. <\/p>\n

COOPER: The notion that Governor Blagojevich thought he might get appointed to ambassadorship is like smoking glue or something. <\/p>\n

LYONS: This is the act of a madman. This is what you call insanity. <\/p>\n

ISIKOFF: How off his rocker he was to be talking the way he was. <\/p>\n

TODD: Obviously this guy Blagojevich is crazy. <\/p>\n

SHRUM: He ought to plead not guilty by reason of insanity.<\/p>\n

RUSH: That\u2019s probably what he\u2019s going to do. That was Bob Shrum. Do you hear how this is all being set up now? The only problem here is that Blagojevich is starring in One Flew Over the Cuckoo\u2019s Nest and he\u2019s refusing to resign. He\u2019s not going to go away. In effect he\u2019s flipping all of these people off. Now, Obama pretended that Jeremiah Wright was acting like a raving lunatic when Wright\u2019s sermons came to light, and Jeremiah Wright correctly noted that Obama was just saying what a politician had to say, that is, Obama knew damn well what Wright was all about. Wright was shocked at things that he had been saying for 20 years were now somehow controversial. He got rich, he got famous with his anti-American racist rants. His buddy Obama thought they were inspirational for years, so what happened? I mean Blagojevich, like Ayers, like Wright, had gotten used to life in Illinois. No one had complained until Obama put \u2019em under the microscope. (laughing) Wright, Ayers, Blagojevich, hot stuff until Obama ran for president. They were! <\/p>\n

There is a trail of destruction that Obama leaves behind wherever he goes. I believe firmly, folks, none of it involves him. I don\u2019t think any of it touches him, but it\u2019s just amazing, utter destruction. The guy\u2019s a one-man wrecking crew. He leaving Illinois, and Illinois is what it\u2019s always been for everybody to see. Blagojevich is ready for the funny farm; Jeremiah Wright\u2019s in the funny farm. Bill Ayers is being interviewed by Chris Matthews on PMSNBC, and Matthews says, ‘You agitate your way, I agitate my way.\u2019 As though there\u2019s some sort of mutual respect. (interruption) Who did I say this about? Well, that\u2019s true. I think Clinton does leave a path of destruction, or he did, too. Clinton destroyed people\u2019s lives. I believe the president-select when he says he had nothing to do with this and he knew nothing about this. I mean, he said he knew that Blagojevich was trying to make a deal. I mean he said that. He said he was not amenable to any deal making which means he had to know that deal making was going on. We don\u2019t know why he didn\u2019t report this to the authorities and nobody in the watchdog media asked him about it at his press conference today. <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, there\u2019s a story here from CBS Chicago: ‘Some Question Blagojevich\u2019s Mental Health.\u2019 Chicago resident Meg Olson: ”Well, we think he\u2019s nuts, that he has some kind mental problem that he would have the audacity to do such a thing.\u2019 ‘Could it be,\u2019 asks Jim Williams of Chicago Eyeball News, CBS 2, ‘that Blagojevich has a mental illness that has impaired his judgment?\u2019 Dr. Daniela Schreirer is a forensic psychologist at the Chicago School of Professional Psychology and she does not see any sign of mental illness in the public Blagojevich, but believes he does have sociopathic traits. ‘We\u2019re just talking about traits. We\u2019re not talking about full-blown diagnosis. But certainly, there\u2019s the same sense of entitlement, the same sense of thinking I am superior. I can do whatever I want. I am not going to be caught,\u2019 Schreirer said.\u2019 Sounds exactly like Clinton disease. <\/p>\n

‘Could a claim of a mental illness be the Blagojevich\u2019s best defense in court? ‘There\u2019s a difference between being crazy and being legally insane,\u2019 said CBS 2\u2019s Legal Analyst Irv Miller. Miller says don\u2019t expect Blagojevich\u2019s attorneys to even try that defense.\u2019 So you see how they\u2019re setting this up. I hope Blagojevich understands what\u2019s going on here. He is being hung out to dry. He is the only corrupt official in Chicago, but not even he is corrupt, he\u2019s insane. He\u2019s a sociopath. Therefore he\u2019s not responsible for what he\u2019s doing. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Folks, it\u2019s just too good. (laughing) So I\u2019m watching PMSNBC. There\u2019s a discussion between the info babe from the Washington Post and David ‘Shyster\u2019 from MSNBC, and they\u2019re discussing Valerie Jarrett. Now, Valerie Jarrett was Obama\u2019s original pick for his Senate seat, and out of the blue — and this is all made clear in the complaint that was released by Patrick Fitzgerald. Out of the blue, Valerie Jarrett withdrew her name. So people are saying, ‘Whoa, whoa, whoa! What explains this?\u2019 Well, let me tell you how the Drive-Bys are explaining it. ‘Well, Valerie Jarrett is completely up-and-up; and she is very, very savvy; and when she realized what was going on, that Blago was attempting to sell the Senate seat, she wanted no part of that because she is so up and up; and she went and she told Rahm Emanuel; and then Rahm Emanuel went and tipped off Fitzgerald; and that\u2019s how this whole thing got started.\u2019 <\/p>\n

And it dovetails with the New York Times story yesterday, thank God for Barack Obama — remember that one? — for signing the ethics bill three months ago that led to all this falling down on the head and shoulders of Blagojevich. This guy looks like a Cabbage Patch doll, by the way, Blagojevich. I\u2019ve been trying to… He reminds me of something, ever since I\u2019ve been looking at him closely, looks like a Cabbage Patch doll. Nevertheless, the wagons are being circled here. Blagojevich is insane; he\u2019s a sociopath. Nobody can believe this. Valerie Jarrett\u2019s up and up, couldn\u2019t handle any of it. When she found out what was going on she pulled herself out of there and told Rahm, and Rahm went out there and he told Fitzgerald. And, of course, this was put forward by David ‘Shyster.\u2019 <\/p>\n

And Kornblut said (paraphrased), ‘Wellllll, I don\u2019t know. We\u2019re doing a lot of guesswork here because we really don\u2019t know yet, but that sounds very plausible.\u2019 These are journalists. By the way, bouncing off of the Obama and Blago story with Barry hardly knowing Blago, that\u2019s another thing. You\u2019ve seen that out there. I didn\u2019t really know him that well, except for when I (laughing) helped him become governor. John Fund has a piece today, and here are the relevant paragraphs. ‘One reason for Mr. Obama\u2019s reticence may be his close relationship with the powerful Illinois senate president Emil Jones. Mr. Jones was a force in Mr. Obama\u2019s rise. In 2003, the two men…\u2019 We heard about this guy yesterday in that AP story, remember that? AP did a long story on these questionable associations that Obama\u2019s had all these years. <\/p>\n

We heard about Jeremiah Wright for the first time yesterday. We heard about Blagojevich yesterday. We head about William Ayers. We heard about Tony Rezko. The AP told us about this. They got around to it late. I thought they had vetted all this stuff before, but I was wrong about that. We heard about all these guys yesterday, and Emil Jones as well. ‘In 2003, [Emil Jones and Obama] talked about the state\u2019s soon-to-be vacant US Senate seat. As Mr. Jones has recounted the conversation, Mr. Obama told him ‘You can make the next US senator.\u2019 Mr. Jones replied, ‘Got anybody in mind?\u2019 ‘Yes,\u2019 Mr. Obama said. ‘Me.\u2019 Starting in 2003, Mr. Jones worked to burnish Mr. Obama\u2019s credentials by making him lead sponsor of bills including a watered-down ban on gifts to lawmakers. … <\/p>\n

‘In 2002, Mr. Obama turned up to help Mr. Blagojevich, a staunch ally of Mr. Jones, win the governor\u2019s mansion. Rahm Emanuel, Mr. Obama\u2019s incoming White House chief of staff, told The New Yorker earlier this year that six years ago he and Mr. Obama ‘participated in a small group that met weekly when [Blagojevich] was running for governor. We basically laid out the general election, Barack and I and these two (other participants).\u2019 Mr. Blagojevich won, but before long, problems surfaced. In 2004, Zalwaynaka Scott, the governor\u2019s inspector general, said his administration\u2019s efforts to evade merit-selection laws exposed ‘not merely an ignorance of the law, but complete and utter contempt for the law.\u2019 Nonetheless, Mr. Obama endorsed Mr. Blagojevich\u2019s re-election in 2006.\u2019 Here\u2019s the point: Obama barely knew him, but helped him get elected governor. Now, if Blagojevich has a mental problem — if Blagojevich is a ‘sociopath,\u2019 as they are all now saying in Chicago and in the Drive-By Media nationally — Obama and Rahm Emanuel seemed not to notice it over the last six years while they provided key help to get Blagojevich elected in the first place, and then to help him get reelected. <\/p>\n

They practically ran his campaign. They didn\u2019t know that he was insane or a sociopath then. It\u2019s only now that this, ladies and gentlemen, has come to light. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

What is the standard for insanity, since they\u2019re now trying to lay this off on poor old Blagojevich? How about being delusional to the extent that you think that a congresswoman from San Francisco and a Senator from Searchlight, Nevada, know better how to run the American automobile industry than the people who live and breathe it? Isn\u2019t it somewhat deranged, delusional, and crazy to think that Pelosi and Reid can run the automobile industry? Isn\u2019t it somewhat crazy to think that Barney Frank can run the financial industry, as the Banking Queen? Isn\u2019t it delusional to think that obviously destructive liberal policies have nothing to do with this problem? See, I think that Blagojevich is just as normal as any other liberal Democrat politician. They\u2019re just trying to say that he is insane and delusional as a means of covering this whole thing up and sweeping it away. <\/p>\n

I know that there are people on our side who are saying, ‘Let\u2019s just bide our time here, and let\u2019s just wait. The Fitzgerald investigation is going to go on and on and on and on, and is already a hundred hours of tape. We don\u2019t know what else is on these tapes. Let\u2019s just be patient.\u2019 Don\u2019t people understand that what\u2019s happening here is an attempt to make all of that irrelevant because the guy behind it needs to be fitted for a little white straitjacket and visited by the guys that drive the little yellow bus wearing the white coats and head him off to the funny farm, so that anything that happened here is rendered irrelevant. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: We start on the phones in Rockford, Illinois. This is Kevin. Hello. It\u2019s nice to have you here, sir.<\/p>\n

CALLER: It\u2019s a great honor, Rush, to speak with you.<\/p>\n

RUSH: I appreciate that, sir.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Okay, yesterday on a local Chicago radio station, they briefly mentioned talk of Lisa Madigan, the Illinois attorney general, of using an obscure law to remove the governor, rather than to have him impeached. If they do that, it\u2019s not a cover-up, but they\u2019re going to stop the trial which would be required if they have an impeachment, and if you know anything about Illinois politics and Chicago politics, you know, everybody is tied in together and if they have impeachment they\u2019re going to have to throw this stuff out there.<\/p>\n

RUSH: There will not be an impeachment. There will not be a trial. There will not be a continuing further federal investigation after January 20th. The most likely thing to happen is that Blagojevich will be transferred to a mental state hospital at some point in late January or February when he refuses to resign. They\u2019ll go into his office, grab him out of there — and his wife, who apparently cusses up a storm. They\u2019re going after her now as somebody who\u2019s also unstable. And then they\u2019ll move the two Blagojevich kids probably to Washington to Sidwell Friends where the Obamas will nurture them and raise them to adulthood. It\u2019s the only decent thing to do. Blagojevich doesn\u2019t know this yet but even if he\u2019s got incriminating news — if he\u2019s got incriminating information, if he\u2019s got proof that somebody suggested this to him and this goes beyond him — it ain\u2019t gonna matter because he\u2019s insane. He is a lunatic. He is a sociopath, and he is delusional. This was established yesterday and last night in the media, and it continues to be established in Chicago. The one name that nobody ever mentions in any of this, but you know is the grand pooh-bah Mayor Daley. Now, again, don\u2019t misunderstand — and you can confirm this for me, Kevin.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yes.<\/p>\n

RUSH: It\u2019s not that Mayor Daley orchestrated any of this and said, ‘I want you to do this and do this.\u2019 It\u2019s that nothing happens there that he doesn\u2019t know about.<\/p>\n

CALLER: That\u2019s absolutely correct.<\/p>\n

RUSH: And if something does happen that he doesn\u2019t know about, whoever is doing it isn\u2019t going to be doing it for very long.<\/p>\n

CALLER: But, Rush, we all know that the governor is not insane. He\u2019s just a typical Illinois Democratic politician.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, it\u2019s just like Pelosi and Reid. I mean they have to be insane to think they can run the car business. We have to be insane to think they can. We\u2019re all insane! This is a sitcom of the insane. I don\u2019t think God\u2019s writing this anymore \u2019cause God is not cruel, and this is getting beyond insanity. This is getting beyond a sitcom. This, ladies and gentlemen, is getting to the point of becoming a tragedy.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well —<\/p>\n

RUSH: And I want to apologize to God for assuming that he had authorship of this sitcom. I knew better than that. We have free will. We\u2019re doing this on our own. This is obviously Jim Burrows, my prolific director and writer in Hollywood that has a hand in this, \u2019cause he\u2019s just a great comedian. He\u2019s the guy makes holiday funny, and he\u2019s turning Chicago politics now funny from deadly. Anything else you wanted to say about this, Kevin, or did I, as host, about wrap it up?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, you\u2019ve said it all, but I would like to give you a big o\u2019orah here from Rockford and from everybody out there listening. Oo\u2019rah.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Kevin, thank you, I appreciate that.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: I wonder if Blagojevich has had a visitor from anybody in the Democrat Party defining what the real honorable thing here for him to do would be — as in, ‘Do you have a knife?\u2019<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Earlier, ladies and gentlemen, we played you a media montage — in fact, grab number 15, too, because it would be nice to illustrate this again. I don\u2019t know that people listening in the first hour may still be with us, and some of them listening now may not have been. Remember, now, Obama\u2019s too big to fail, and this scandal, the Drive-Bys, ‘We gotta make sure this doesn\u2019t taint Obama, not even been inaugurated yet, we\u2019re in the transition.\u2019 So Blagojevich is insane, he\u2019s delusional, he\u2019s psychopath, a sociopath. This is a media montage. <\/p>\n

MADDOW: Hometown folks use words like sociopath, delusional and compulsive to describe their governor. <\/p>\n

TODD: Obviously this guy Blagojevich is crazy. <\/p>\n

SHRUM: He ought to plead not guilty by reason of insanity.<\/p>\n

RUSH: That\u2019s Bob Shrum there, the last voice. So you see how this shaping up. Now, the Clintons call this the ‘nuts and sluts defense.\u2019 That was the nuts defense. Here\u2019s the sluts montage as they are now going after Blagojevich\u2019s wife.<\/p>\n

SANCHEZ: The first lady with a mouth like a sailor.<\/p>\n

COOPER: She\u2019s got a mouth like a trucker and I have to apologize to truckers for that one.<\/p>\n

TUCHMAN: An unflattering and sometimes foulmouthed style.<\/p>\n

BLITZER: The Governor\u2019s wife is also heard on the tapes at times unleashing profanities big time. <\/p>\n

ROESGEN: She was egging her husband on like Lady Macbeth.<\/p>\n

WALTERS: The wife is also involved. Every third word out of both of their mouths begins with an ‘F.\u2019 It\u2019s ‘F\u2019 this and ‘F\u2019 that and ‘F\u2019 this.<\/p>\n

BARNICLE: Officially the Bonnie and Clyde of Chicago politics, the two of them<\/p>\n

RUSH: So once again another woman comes under attack, viciously so, by the Drive-By Media and the Democrat Party. They are leaving no stone unturned, they are leaving nothing to chance here. Blagojevich is insane, is delusional, is a psychopath, is a sociopath, and his wife is a reprobate and a slut and a foulmouthed whore! She cusses, and she\u2019s in real estate deals, and for that we gotta dispatch her, too. She\u2019s a first lady. She cusses, she\u2019s in real estate deals, and she\u2019s a first lady. Does she throw ashtrays? Does she hate the military? Does she believe in health care? Does she fire the travel office people in the Chicago governor\u2019s office? We don\u2019t know the answers to these questions, but there are enough similarities here. Now, Blagojevich\u2019s wife, Patti Blago, is the daughter of some big-time Chicago alderman, politician or some such thing. And they also cuss. And we know that Chicago people involved in real estate — (whispering) Rezko. Isn\u2019t it amazing what Democrats will do to a woman when they don\u2019t like her, or when they want to get rid of her husband? Slut, whore, cusses, worse than sailors. No offense to sailors. Worse than truckers. No offense to truckers. And her husband\u2019s insane, a lunatic, deranged, psychopath, in just two days.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: By the way, Patti Blagojevich — just in passing here, I don\u2019t think we could make anything of this but, you know, she — worked in real estate with Tony Rezko. AP told us yesterday that Tony Rezko is — well, apparently he\u2019s been charged with all kinds of crimes. He\u2019s trying to negotiate the plea down. He is talking to the prosecutors to try to lessen his sentence. He\u2019s giving up other people; going to lessen his sentence out there. He and his wife had some arrangement, I\u2019m told, that helped the Obamas — which I think is very compassionate thing to do, by the way. He helped the Obamas buy their house when they didn\u2019t have a whole lot of money and couldn\u2019t pay what it was really worth. I mean, it was just a forerunner to what\u2019s happening now. <\/p>\n

At least the Obamas paid something. Some people are paying nothing for their houses, folks. Also, people are stunned at the way Democrats talk to each other. You know, when you listen to the tapes that have been released of Blagojevich talking to these other people, the F-bomb is everywhere. ‘F\u2019 this, ‘F\u2019 that, and even ‘MF\u2019 that! Why are people stunned? These people, especially these Democrat politicians, it\u2019s the way they talk to everybody. What do you think the language they\u2019re going to use is when you\u2019re demanding cash from somebody? You\u2019re going to threaten \u2019em; you\u2019re going to do all kinds of things. That\u2019s what makes it so frustrating that any time some Republican comes up and mentions Obama\u2019s middle name, all these holier-than-thou Democrats demand that person be renounced, denounced, thrown away, thrown overboard, or what have you.<\/p>\n

And then the Republican candidate says (doing McCain impression), ‘I agree! That\u2019s just horrible. I\u2019m not going to tolerate that in my campaign! He\u2019s gone.\u2019 Meanwhile, these Democrats are going to throw the F-bomb at every place, and Patti Blagojevich\u2019s family is shocked. It\u2019s not the Patti Blagojevich they knew. This is from Fox 5 Eyeball News. I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s Channel 5, Fox Eyeball News. I see AP. I\u2019m sorry. It\u2019s AP-Obama. ‘Patricia Blagojevich\u2019s father, sister and brother are refuting the foulmouthed portrait that\u2019s been drawn of [Blogo]\u2019s wife since his arrest, saying the first lady has been living in a pressure cooker. Chicago Alderman Dick Mell, state Representative-elect Deborah Mell and Rich Mell told the Chicago Sun-Times and NBC5 in an exclusive interview Wednesday that profanity-laced comments recorded by federal prosecutors don\u2019t reflect who Patricia Blagojevich really is. ‘That is absolutely not my sister,\u2019 Deborah Mell said. ‘Patti is a mother, a sister and a devoted wife. ‘She is particularly protective of her family.\u2019 … ‘I can understand it.
