RUSH: Zack, South Bend, Indiana. Hello, Zack. What\u2019s your question?<\/p>\n

CALLER: How you doing, Rush? Thank you for having me on. I\u2019m a new listener. I was just wondering if you had a chance to sit down with Barack, and ask any question in the world that he had to answer honestly, what would it be?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, that he had to answer honestly?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yes.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh.<\/p>\n

CALLER: There was some kind of truth serum and he had no choice.<\/p>\n

RUSH: ‘Why are you doing this?\u2019 If he had no choice and the truth would come flowing out of his oral cavity, and this were an interview being watched by all Americans, I\u2019d say, ‘Why are you doing this?\u2019 so the whole country would know. If you put that caveat on it. If you take the caveat that he had to answer it honestly away, I would still ask the same question. ‘Why are you doing this?\u2019 Because the lies that would come out of his mouth would set me up for the rest of my career, in the mission here to destroy liberalism and to make it a permanent governing minority. It already is a minority. We are being ruled by an elite bunch of snobs.<\/p>\n

By the way, I want to take on this word ‘elite.\u2019 A lot of people make a good point about this. By elite, I don\u2019t mean ‘better than.\u2019 Sometimes ‘elite\u2019 is defined as people who are really special. They are smarter, they\u2019re better, they\u2019re more accomplished, more achieved. That\u2019s not what we mean when we talk about this ruling elite. These are self-appointed elitists. These are people who tell themselves and tell us that they\u2019re smarter and brighter than everybody else, when in fact they may be more book-educated, but they are — in practical, common sense terms — ignorant, dumb, and dangerous. So it\u2019s quite obvious here we\u2019re being ruled by a very small minority. And the objective here is to make it a governing minority. In other words, get rid of thing majorities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
