I think what you\u2019re seeing is, uh, buh, you know, the one mistake President Obama made I think was to think that with the extreme conservative takeover of the Republican Party &#8212; with the very vehement influence &#8212; that he was going to get bipartisanship. Max Baucus tried his hardest it was humanly possible to do to pick up a Republican. I think there are Republicans in the Senate who would like to have been with them but they face such opposition from within their own party that they\u2019re not there.<\/p>\n<p>OBAMA: He\u2019s a jackass.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: So here we have Barney Frank saying Obama\u2019s big mistake was trying to work with Republicans. (laughs) He hasn\u2019t met with Republicans since April, John Boehner says. Obama\u2019s big mistake has been working with Democrats! Here\u2019s Rick in Malibu. Great to have you on the program, sir. You\u2019re on the EIB Network. Hi.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hey. Hi, Rush. Thanks for taking my call.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yes, sir.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Dittos from the far Left Coast.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yes, sir. (chuckles)<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I was listening to<a xhtml:id=\"\/content\/home\/daily\/site_091609\/content\/01125108\" href=\"\/\/\/home\/daily\/site_091609\/content\/01125108.html\"> your comments<\/a> about the limitation of speech that House members can make on the floor of the &#8216;Kremlin.\u2019 Do those rules apply to the president as well?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: No. Well, I say that instinctively. I don\u2019t know what the rules of decorum are for what the president can and can\u2019t say. But this is the point. With Obama, even if there were rules there wouldn\u2019t be any rules. He\u2019s not going to be held to account for anything, so we can come up there&#8230; Look, he repeatedly lied. He demeaned that chamber. He insulted the integrity of everybody in there. He repeatedly lied through his teeth about his health care plan all during that speech.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Exactly. So if the rules apply to the members, then&#8230; I mean, I don\u2019t know. Do they specifically exempt him in those rules? <\/p>\n<p>RUSH: The way you sum up the rules, the Democrats who &#8212; and Louise Slaughter, by the way&#8230; Oh, by the way, do you know <a xhtml:id=\"\/content\/home\/daily\/site_091609\/content\/01125104\" href=\"\/\/\/home\/daily\/site_091609\/content\/01125104.html\">the story <\/a>out of Wichita? The guy who wrote the story, his last name is Stan Finger. The Dumpster story, Stan Finger is the guy who wrote it. What the House of Representatives did was basically ban accurate free speech. That clears the decks for Obama to show up any time he wants.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: You gotta hear this sound bite, number 23, Mike. I just had it delivered.
