RUSH: Brittany in Temecula, California. She\u2019s 20 years old. It\u2019s great to have you with us.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Thank you. Hi.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Hi.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Like my dad says, Rush: I agree with you 1% of the time and the other 99 you agree with me. <\/p>\n

RUSH: Thank you.<\/p>\n

CALLER: So dittos from sunny California.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Thank you.<\/p>\n

CALLER: You are welcome. So I wanted to share with you a little story. Every night my 15-year-old sister and I — and I am 20 — spend two, maybe one, two hours talking about current events, news, and yesterday was angry teenagers. And she expressed to me that in high school, you meet a lot of angry teenagers. And they attack first and never think later type thing and they always are self-proclaimed liberals. And my thing is the liberals in Washington are just like teenagers because they react on impulse and emotion, never thinking anything through. And that\u2019s why teenagers cling to the left, like Christians cling to our guns and our God. So that\u2019s, I think… Because I\u2019m so focused on getting the youth movement going, and I read today on Yahoo they always have those stories that the hip-hop movement is getting the youth movement going. But I feel like I can\u2019t be a part of that movement because their movement is all for Obama. And they cling to one another.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Not only that you want to stay alive. <\/p>\n

CALLER: (giggling)<\/p>\n

RUSH: I mean, street cred for hip-hoppers is a murder charge.<\/p>\n

CALLER: It is, especially when we\u2019ve got most of them like Jay-Z talking about the white devil in the president\u2019s house, you know, before. You know, when Bush was still in power.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, of course, I know all that stuff.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, so I can\u2019t be a part of that group. Just wanted to feel, just wanted to vent, just wanted to share that with you.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, I appreciate that. We\u2019ve gotten a lot of calls since the Easter break, the spring break, a lot of calls from young people like you, and it\u2019s very comforting to the people that listen to this program to hear people like you out there and understand that you have a solid grip on things. Yeah, there\u2019s anger everywhere. I\u2019m surprised at it because the people that are angry are the people who are winning. Their people are winning elections, they\u2019re winning on the policy battles and they\u2019re still mad. They\u2019re still angry. They\u2019re perpetually angry! They\u2019re perpetually enraged. And people have asked me why. <\/p>\n

I don\u2019t know. I can\u2019t relate to being mad all the time. I don\u2019t want to be mad all the time. I don\u2019t want to wake up mad. I don\u2019t want to go to bed mad. I don\u2019t want to spend all day mad. There are a lot of people that do it, though, and I, frankly, I don\u2019t understand it. It\u2019s not something that I want to try to parse and analyze. All I know is that they\u2019re not the people are going to get anything done. The constant complaining and whining and anger has got a root cause somewhere, and it all equals is unhappiness and dissatisfaction. And they end up striking out at people like you and your sister and blaming everybody else for the fact that they don\u2019t feel very happy, when in fact they need to look inward. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
