Hello, sir.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hi, Rush. Yeah, earlier I heard you criticizing the people in Greece for taking the welfare money, contributing to the problem. I couldn\u2019t agree more. I feel like I could be the Official Welfare Recipient Criticizer. I\u2019ve got a disability. I\u2019ve had it, I guess, since I was 18. I crushed my back. I\u2019ve got rods holding me together, bolts and steel, and I go to work every day and I\u2019ve done it since I was 18. Now I\u2019m raising a family, got three kids, but where I live I feel like sometimes I\u2019m surrounded by people on welfare, and of all the people there I think I\u2019m probably the only one who is a legitimate disability that could actually be on welfare but I\u2019m paying their way, you know? So if I want to criticize them I feel like I\u2019ve got ample reason to do that.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, you do have standing, you do have standing to criticize just like Mr. Snerdley is our Official Obama Criticizer. When we really need to go to the mattresses here &#8212; <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: (laughing)<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: &#8212; we bring him out.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: And, I\u2019ll tell you what: Obama has had two years to do something that on my level with my family I could say I\u2019m better off, but I feel like my kids are more at risk in a more dangerous world than we were two years ago, and my employer, they\u2019re having problems with insurance &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah, I know.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125114.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" class=\"alignright\"\/>CALLER: &#8212; now because of the health care bill. And any help I\u2019ve got since I was hurt at 18 years old has come from the private sector. None of it was government.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: You know?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I know.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Apple develops the iPad so I learned to write software for the iPad. <\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, that\u2019s great. I love this. I wish I had gotten hold of you earlier. You\u2019d be a great inspirational story. Snerdley thought you weren\u2019t that important and put you here at the end of the line. It\u2019s his fault. Maybe we\u2019ll be able to talk to you again, but this is fabulous news. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Justin in Casper, Wyoming, great to have you on the EIB Network.
