His wife said the same thing in Zanesville, Ohio, back during the campaign: Don\u2019t be a lawyer, don\u2019t be an investment banker, stay as a nurse or what have you. So here is the president of the United States on The Tonight Show, which, you know, the audience of that show, what would you want to guess the average IQ of the audience of The Tonight Show is? &#8216;Don\u2019t be an investment banker,\u2019 do not do that, you will destroy America. It\u2019s none of his damn business what you want to do with your life! It\u2019s none of his business! Unless he\u2019s paying your education, unless he\u2019s your father, and even then, it\u2019s your life, and you can do with it what you want. Of all the occupations, &#8216;Don\u2019t be an investment banker.\u2019 Why? Who\u2019s he targeting? <\/p>\n<p>He wants everybody in finance to wear a giant red &#8216;A\u2019 for AIG. He wants people in that business to be hated. He wants people in that business to be suspects. &#8216;Smart kid coming out of school, instead of wanting to be an investment banker, we need them to decide they want to be an engineer, a scientist, a doctor, a teacher, and if we\u2019re rewarding those kinds of things, which actually contribute to making things and making people\u2019s lives better,\u2019 you don\u2019t think this guy has a bug up his dress? You don\u2019t think this guy has got a chip on his shoulder about wealthy people, what he thinks are wealthy? You don\u2019t think this guy has a prejudice? Investment bankers don\u2019t do anything, they make nothing happen. We need to fund things that matter, people who make things, like ACORN. What does ACORN make? Nothing but a bunch of damn corruption and trouble. This is your attack on individualism. This is your attack on liberty, and it\u2019s coming right from the Oval Office, excuse me, excuse me, from the stage of The Tonight Show. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: One more sound bite, ladies and gentlemen, and this sound bite dovetails with what I was saying all day long about this administration targeting individualism.
