This whole <img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125110.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"258\" class=\"alignright\"\/>Supreme Court nomination thing is one giant joke! As they\u2019ve gotta find all the check boxes here, some candidate that fills out every requirement Obama has, and the last requirement on the list is they know anything about the law. They gotta be female, they gotta be pregnant, they gotta be a single mother, gotta be poor, gotta be disadvantaged, gotta be Hispanic, gotta be Muslim, gotta be Asian, gotta be whatever. We played a sound bite in the last hour of Tavis Smiley being interviewed by Joe Scarborough, who is a friend of mine. I like Scarborough. But he asked a question, he said to Smiley, &#8216;Don\u2019t you think that African-Americans would like to have somebody on the court that reflects the majority view in the black community?\u2019 Why don\u2019t we ever ask the question, &#8216;Should maybe we get rid of Ruth &#8216;Buzzi\u2019 Ginsburg? Don\u2019t you think Christians need a woman on the court to reflect their views?\u2019 Why don\u2019t we ever get that question? You know, a lot of Italians don\u2019t like Scalia. We maybe need to get somebody like Tony Soprano on there who is more like some Italians.<\/p>\n<p>The way these people look at things is just incredible. They would never ask the question about Ruth &#8216;Buzzi\u2019 Ginsburg, but they ask it about Clarence Thomas. So I\u2019m sure George Stephanopoulos has told Obama who he supports in one of those conference calls that he participates in every morning with Rahm Emanuel, The Skull, Paul Begala, and James Carville, Serpent Head. I\u2019m sure they\u2019ve made their picks known. We don\u2019t know what they are, but we\u2019ll find out at some point. Now, it\u2019s interesting here, ladies and gentlemen, that the same process that Obama is using to fill nominees on the basic level of court systems, the circuit courts and Supreme Court, it\u2019s not about judges who know the law; it\u2019s about judges who feel. If you look at the Chrysler bankruptcy that was literally crammed down everybody\u2019s throat yesterday by President Obama, you find perhaps the same philosophy. Let\u2019s not do what\u2019s best for Chrysler. Let\u2019s do what\u2019s best for those who are disadvantaged at Chrysler and who\u2019s that, that\u2019s the unions! Now, I\u2019ll tell you, there are people, even the New York Times today, the lenders Obama decided to blame. I mean this has caused a lot of people to have rancorous objection and reaction to what Obama did yesterday. <\/p>\n<p>For example, &#8216;Peter A. Weinberg and Joseph R. Perella are part of a band of Wall Street renegades &#8212; &#8216;a small group of speculators,\u2019 President Obama called them Thursday &#8212; who helped bankrupt Chrysler. That, anyway, is the Washington line. &#8230; But now the two men, along with a handful of other financiers, are being blamed for precipitating the bankruptcy of an American icon. As Chrysler\u2019s fate hung in the balance Wednesday night, this group refused to bend to the Obama administration and accept steep losses on their investments while more junior investors, including the United Automobile Workers union, were offered favorable terms.\u2019 I told you, explained all this yesterday. This is like how it\u2019s done in Argentina. The bondholders get the shaft, the banks get the shaft, and the union owns the company. &#8216;In a rare flash of anger, the president scolded the group Thursday as Chrysler, its options exhausted, filed for bankruptcy protection. &#8216;I don\u2019t stand with those who held out when everyone else is making sacrifices,\u2019 Mr. Obama said. Chastened, and under intense pressure from the White House, the investment firm run by Mr. Weinberg and Mr. Perella, Perella Weinberg Partners, abruptly reversed course. In a terse statement issued shortly before 6 p.m. Thursday, Perella Weinberg Partners announced it would accept the government\u2019s terms.\u2019 <\/p>\n<p>Now, listen to this next passage in the New York Times. &#8216;Whatever the outcome, this bit of brinkmanship,\u2019 on the part of these two guys, the hedge fund as they were called who wanted to hold out, they were being told to cash out at 20 cents on the dollar. Now, these people hold investments of average people. It\u2019s not these two guys single-handedly putting their own money into Chrysler and extending debt to Chrysler. It is people who invested with them. So it\u2019s not just these two guys that are going to lose; it\u2019s everybody who invested with them, and yet they are portrayed as the villains! &#8216;But whatever the outcome, this bit of brinkmanship &#8212; which many characterized as a game of chicken with Washington &#8212; has become yet another public relations disaster for Wall Street.\u2019 How about a PR disaster for Chrysler? A public relations disaster for Wall Street. The only reason it\u2019s a PR disaster for Wall Street is because that\u2019s what President Obama wanted the perception to be by singling them out, tarring and feathering them publicly yesterday was unnecessary. He did not have to do it. President Obama had his little hissy fit. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125110.Par.4584.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"250\" class=\"alignright\"\/>Now, let me explain this, you get into finance and it gets convoluted, but it was clear that Obama favored the UAW at the expense of the bondholders. There\u2019s no question, \u2019cause they got 55% of the company, folks. He insisted that the bondholders settle for pennies on the dollar. The bondholders are the private sector here. Many of the bondholders, not all, but many of them were the big banks and these hedge funds, these Perella Weinberg Partners here that you\u2019ve heard besmirched. The big banks went along with what Obama demanded, but the small majority of hedge funds did not. The bond holders committee representatives from Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan Chase, Morgan Stanley, Oppenheimer Funds, Perella Weinberg Partners, Zeron Funds, so forth and so on, the big banks went along, the hedge funds held out. And Obama accused them of holding out for a bailout. They were not holding out for a bailout, they were holding out for a proper return because they were carrying Chrysler debt. <\/p>\n<p>So here\u2019s the money question. Did the big banks decide out of the goodness of their hearts to go along with Obama and settle for pennies on the dollar, or did they do it &#8212; there\u2019s three possible reasons. They did it out of the goodness of their hearts; they did it because TARP money was sent to them under the table to cover their losses. We\u2019ll never know if that\u2019s the case, but it\u2019s a good bet. Maybe they didn\u2019t suffer losses. Maybe the big banks didn\u2019t really &#8212; remember, those guys all voted for Obama. Public assumption is everybody took a bath and that\u2019s what makes the deal fair. Everybody sacrificed, except the UAW, Obama\u2019s real friends. The third possibility to explain why the big banks rolled over is they\u2019re just scared to death because the Obama administration, Treasury department, has their future in his hands. So, of the three possibilities, goodness of their hearts, they got secret slush money under the table from TARP, or they\u2019re scared to death because the Treasury department holds the future right in their hands. I vote option three. I vote that the big banks rolled over \u2019cause they\u2019re scared to death because wherever I go, I don\u2019t care who I interact with, they\u2019re scared to death of this administration. <\/p>\n<p>There is genuine fear of the government from average Americans buying up guns and ammunition like they never have before, to people on Wall Street, to big businesses, there is abject fear. So I vote for number three. We\u2019ll never really know. What we do know is that Obama got angry at the holdouts. What we have here is a new Fairness Doctrine, the Obama Fairness Doctrine. Didn\u2019t need Congress, didn\u2019t need the courts for this. It\u2019s not about radio, it\u2019s about everything. Here\u2019s the scenario. Obama listens to all sides, and all sides end up thinking Obama understands and agrees with them. Obama, after listening to all sides, then plays Solomon and pronounces what\u2019s fair. And if you don\u2019t accept his fairness &#8212; he-he-he &#8212; you are dispatched to Messiah Park, not Fort Marcy Park, you are dispatched to Messiah Park. Sure, of course the listing is just an exercise. He\u2019s got his mind made up. He brings these people in the room just to do a snow job on them to make them think they\u2019ve got a chance at changing his mind. That\u2019s why he had dinner with the conservative columnists. It\u2019s all for show; it\u2019s all PR. This guy is a committed ideological, liberal leftist who\u2019s putting on a show for everybody. <\/p>\n<p>I told you in December the UAW was going to get this company and return the nation\u2019s wealth to its rightful owners. And this is exactly what\u2019s happened. But there are also consequences to leftism, liberal, when you do things. Here\u2019s a story out of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. It is a gold mine of information, actually pretty good reporting. It\u2019s by Angela Tablac. Angela, I don\u2019t want to ruin your career by praising you, I know that\u2019s a possibility here, but it\u2019s actually a good job of reporting. A quote from the story: &#8216;The thing Obama does not control yet is if the consumer buys their vehicles,\u2019 meaning after all of this is done, the one thing that hasn\u2019t been taken into account in any of this, is there anybody who knows how to build a car now at Chrysler that people are gonna want to buy? And what we know is that the people Obama\u2019s put in charge here have never had that job, they\u2019ve never had that responsibility from his car czar team to the union. But this story is about all of the unemployment that\u2019s going to happen in the St. Louis area as a result of the bankruptcy. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125110.Par.39723.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"230\" class=\"alignright\"\/>Obama\u2019s yesterday talking about all the jobs he saved. This story is about the plant closings in the St. Louis area and the jobs that are going to be lost. Chrysler plans to permanently close Fenton, Missouri\u2019s pickup assembly plant, there are two of them there, about a thousand people work there, and the mini-van plant. That was idle last year by the end of 2010 as a part of a broader plan to unload excess manufacturing facilities. For the second time in its 84-year history, Chrysler has hovered near bankruptcy. To help Chrysler, the federal government agreed to give it up to $8 billion in additional aid and to back its warranties. I\u2019ll tell you, that\u2019s something else. The bondholders, here\u2019s the government passing out $8 billion, and the bondholders, the ones that hold the legitimate debt, get none of it, they get the shaft \u2019cause they\u2019re Wall Street, and Obama loves the New York Times writing about this as another PR disaster for Wall Street. That\u2019s the nation\u2019s wealth. <\/p>\n<p>The federal government in this deal also promised the UAW that it will protect workers, retiree health care benefits during the bankruptcy. The union gives up and sacrifices nothing, other than some of these jobs that are being lost, in St. Louis. They\u2019re not going to resolve the legacy costs. Nobody\u2019s intending to resolve the legacy costs. You mean the in perpetuity payment to people who have retired of health care benefits and pension? At some point it will be off-loaded and Obama will take it over at the federal government. But basically what you have here, the investment bankers stood up against a deal that shafts them royally. Obama went out and smeared them publicly, and they caved. And that\u2019s reported as a PR disaster for Wall Street. Now, since all of those who made out in the deal agree these guys are going to lose in court should they go, even those involved in negotiations see little upside in fighting. There\u2019s a zero chance this group will be able to get anything more in bankruptcy court, given that 90% of the lenders are lined up against them, the hedge fund people. <\/p>\n<p>Washington Post: &#8216;Obama Vows Swift Overhaul As Chrysler Enters Bankruptcy.\u2019 Negotiations dominated by banks who are at the mercy of government. That\u2019s option three as to why the big banks rolled over. So who owns the company at the end of the day? Says it right here. &#8216;The new majority owner will be Chrysler\u2019s union retiree health fund, which would receive a 55 percent stake in the new company. Fiat would get a 20 percent stake, with its share potentially rising to 35 percent over time based on performance. The United States would take 8 percent, while the Canadian government, which is also providing financing, would receive 2 percent.\u2019 But Chrysler\u2019s UAW union retiree health fund is the proud new owner of Chrysler when this is all over at 55%. &#8216;Those negotiations had been dominated by four large banks that own 70 percent of Chrysler\u2019s debt &#8212; Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, J.P. Morgan and Morgan Stanley. Each has received government bailout loans through the Treasury\u2019s Troubled Assets Relief Program.\u2019 They said they\u2019d be glad to cave \u2019cause their future is in the hands of Tim Geithner, Treasury department, and Barack Obama. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: This is George. You\u2019re up first on Open Line Friday. It\u2019s great to have you here, sir. Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hey Rush, Blagojevich for Supreme Court dittos. How\u2019s that? (laughs)<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: (chuckles) Thank you, sir.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hey, you know what? This example of Obama and what he\u2019s doing with the Chrysler creditors is a perfect example of the cram-down that the senators just voted down. I mean, instead of having the court say to the banks, &#8216;You have to adjust the rates,\u2019 now you have Obama basically saying, &#8216;I\u2019m the judge and jury now. You creditors have to reduce the rates on Chrysler.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Okay, wait.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: It\u2019s absolutely ridiculous.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Wait a minute. You\u2019re jumping the gun on something here. Let me tell people the story that you\u2019re talking about. The Senate yesterday &#8216;handed a victory to the banking industry on Thursday, defeating a Democratic proposal that would have given homeowners in financial trouble greater flexibility to renegotiate the terms of their mortgages.\u2019 Essentially, the Senate yesterday refused to let judges fix mortgages in bankruptcy, which means that a contract is still a contract somewhere. Here\u2019s a quote from Senator Durbin of Illinois. Well, not a quote, but, &#8216;In recent weeks, major banks and bank trade associations worked closely with Senate Republicans to stop the measure. Twelve Democrats joined all the Republicans in voting against it.\u2019 It was a cram-down-your throat policy that the Senate defeated. So your point about this again is what?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: That this is exactly what Obama was trying to do to the creditors like Oppenheimer of Chrysler. He was basically trying to force them, through fear, to reduce the debt on Chrysler &#8212; which would have, like you said, brought the share up to 20 bucks.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: What do you mean? What do you mean &#8216;trying\u2019? He did it.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, exactly. And to your point about option number three, it\u2019s out of pure fear.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Absolutely. Everybody\u2019s running in total fear of the guy.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yep.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Folks, a lot of these banks want to give the TARP money back, remember? And he won\u2019t take it back. Obama won\u2019t take the TARP money back. He wants in. These guys voted for him. In a way, it\u2019s sweet justice, except that the American private sector gets shafted again.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Rod in Detroit. Hey, Rod. I learned something today that I didn\u2019t know. Dave Bing, the former NBA great, is going to run for mayor there.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: That is correct. He is running, although I\u2019m not &#8212; well, at least he\u2019s a guy that\u2019s got a little bit of experience and gumption. We won\u2019t even go there with respect to the former mayor.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, yeah, I can understand that. Kevin Johnson, who I knew when he played for the Phoenix Suns, now the mayor of Sacramento, is going out there to help Bing in his mayoral campaign. Anyway, you didn\u2019t call about that. What was it you called about?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, first, mega locomotive engineer dittos to you. This is a second-time call, and I\u2019m most honored to speak to you. I wanted to talk to you, we have one American firm already making what I consider to be the world\u2019s highest quality, most fuel-efficient cars and trucks. My question to you, will the Chrysler bankruptcy, specifically Obama, the Obama administration\u2019s prop up and free transfer of this company to another loser company, Fiat, help spur a sales line of Ford Motor Company products? I was just wondering how you think Americans will respond to this overt attempt on the part of the Obama administration to prop up Chrysler.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: It\u2019s all going to depend on whether Chrysler makes cars people want to buy. It won\u2019t matter to people if Chrysler survives, however they survive. I mean people are not going to be ideological when they go in there. You might have some people that refuse to simply \u2019cause they\u2019re Obama people. If they make cars people want to buy, that ought to be the sole determining factor, and with the United Auto Workers pension fund owning 55%, I don\u2019t know who the car guys are at the United Auto Workers. There may be some guys in there that know how to design cars that are frustrated. You can find talent everywhere. Wherever they find it, whoever can design and build cars that people want. Problem is that Chrysler is going to be forever under the direction of Obama, and the Sierra Club is probably going to be the ones designing Chryslers, which means you\u2019re going to be buying lawn mowers and all that with a couple seats on them. It\u2019s tough. It\u2019s going to be very tough. Rod, thanks for the call. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: In the previous hour, we were discussing the hapless and comical &#8212; I\u2019m still amazed that late-night comics can\u2019t find anything to laugh about or make jokes about in this administration.
