I know this trap, trick, tactic. I\u2019ve seen it employed countless times. What they\u2019re trying to do is suggest here&#8230; Well, they want to convince Scott Brown that he\u2019s now hated on the right because I &#8216;hate\u2019 him, and they\u2019re trying to turn him around on his vote for health care. They\u2019re trying to say, &#8216;Look, Brown! Look at what these evil, right-wing guys are saying about you. They hate you now! You have not voted their way, and they hate your guts, and they hate you,\u2019 and they\u2019re trying to turn him around. Here it is. This is Sam Stein this morning on Morning Joe. Sam Stein is with the Huffing and Puffington Post. Scarborough said, &#8216;Maybe they do health care incrementally out there,\u2019 Sam, old buddy, old pal.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125111.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"206\" class=\"alignright\"\/>STEIN: That\u2019s the fallback option now, if you can\u2019t get something big passed, is to do small bits that are sort of noncontroversial and build on there.<\/p>\n<p>SCARBOROUGH: Mmmph.<\/p>\n<p>STEIN: Scott Brown, how remarkable is that? (snickering) Within two days he\u2019s now hated by Rush Limbaugh.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: The question: &#8216;So you have Scott Brown, hero of the tea party movement a couple weeks ago, now villain number one with a lot of people on the right for voting for this jobs bill which is a collection of tax cuts.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>STEIN: This is pure treachery, obviously. (snickering) <\/p>\n<p>WOMAN: (giggling)<\/p>\n<p>STEIN: You know, Scott Brown elected two weeks ago or whatever was, now he\u2019s the villain of the right. Uh, Rush Limbaugh is not a big fan, of course, this morning. But like you said, this is such a&#8230; You know, among the jobs bill, I mean, we had a hundred billion-dollar plus bill in the House that was supposed to be the basis for this. This is $15 billion &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: All right, stop it. Stop it because they\u2019re misrepresenting it. This is not a &#8216;jobs bill.\u2019 This is Stimulus 2. Folks, do you realize how much unspent money there is from the original slush fund? There\u2019s about $500 billion from the original slush fund that\u2019s unspent. There\u2019s another one for this, but at no time did I say yesterday, &#8216;I hate Scott Brown.\u2019 In fact, I said I\u2019m not surprised by this. He\u2019s from Massachusetts. He\u2019s got to throw this out there. He\u2019s gotta do this occasionally. He\u2019s gotta get reelected up there in two years. You know, this is something that, speaking for myself, was not a surprise. And, by the way, he has said&#8230; You know, the House gets this thing now, because it passed the Senate. Thirteen or 15 other Republicans voted for it now on final passage in addition to Scott Brown. So, it goes over to the House. <\/p>\n<p>Now, if those people lard the thing up with a bunch of earmarks and pork, Scott Brown has reserved his right to vote against it and said so. So they\u2019re trying to convince Brown, &#8216;See, these guys don\u2019t really love you. You may as well join us and vote for health care and so forth and so on, because these guys hate you.\u2019 That\u2019s what they\u2019re trying to do, here. Make no mistake about this whatsoever. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Well, the Drive-Bys, ladies and gentlemen, are trying to stir up trouble between me and Scott Brown.
