It was revealed and announced yesterday by Wolf Blitzer on his show, The Situation Room.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125113.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" class=\"alignright\"\/>BLITZER: Our CNN\/Opinion Research corporation poll asked favorable\/unfavorable numbers for most of the top Republicans who we\u2019re hearing a lot from lately. And look at these numbers. Colin Powell, he\u2019s at 70% favorability. Then John McCain, 58. Then it goes down. Sarah Palin 46, Romney 42, Dick Cheney 37, Newt Gingrich 36, Rush Limbaugh is only at 30% favorability.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: (laughing) They\u2019re polling my favorable\/unfavorable numbers at state-run CNN. Thirty percent. I don\u2019t know what their sample was, I guess the American voters, American public, I don\u2019t know, they didn\u2019t specify what the sample was. But I\u2019m going to tell you, if 30% of the country likes me, or approves of me, or at least in their poll, that makes me more popular than most Americans. You got that. This is not bad for a Muslim nation, folks, for a guy like me to have 30% approval in a Muslim country I\u2019ll take that any day. That\u2019s what Obama said, he went over there and he said that the United States is a Muslim country. Here I got 30% approval in a Muslim country, I\u2019ll take it. Can you believe they\u2019re out there polling me? Here is Dingy Harry, the Senate majority leader. This is the kind of ignorance that is on parade every day in Washington, DC.<\/p>\n<p>REID: I understand that during her career she\u2019s written hundreds and hundreds of opinions. I haven\u2019t read a single one of them. And if I\u2019m fortunate before we end this I won\u2019t have to read one of them.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Apparently he\u2019s read some Clarence Thomas opinions because he said he wasn\u2019t very impressed with them. But here\u2019s a guy who admitted, admittedly has not read and doesn\u2019t want to read any of her opinions and yet is going to blindly support her. By the way, I looked up CNN\u2019s favorability numbers last night after I heard that they did a poll on me, and, believe me, folks, when you have 600,000 of over 200 million people watching you, I would say you have a disapproval number that\u2019s about 95%, or 97%. CNN\u2019s favorability is in the toilet. Nobody is watching. In primetime, CNN and MSNBC combined do not get anywhere near the ratings Fox News Channel has. Fox News beats \u2019em if you add their audience. If 30% of the country watched CNN, they\u2019d be celebrating, they\u2019d be throwing parties. I have a favorable opinion of 30% of the American people. In a Muslim country, that\u2019s big. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: CNN has done another one, another poll of me.
