RUSH: I just checked the e-mail for the first time in a while because, frankly, e-mail has been down here. We haven\u2019t been receiving e-mail since 12:25 and the flow just started. Man, Snerdley, people are ticked off at me over what I said about earmarks. They think I\u2019ve sold DeMint overboard, under the water. They think I\u2019ve been bought off by RINO Republicans. Ha! When\u2019s the last time the audience was mad at me over something? It\u2019s happened before. (interruption) I didn\u2019t defend who? Well, no, I didn\u2019t defend them. I said there\u2019s a bigger issue. But what people are saying is, ‘Rush, Rush, come on, now earmarks, if they can\u2019t get rid of earmarks, that\u2019s by your own admission, Rush, that\u2019s piddling. It\u2019s not a serious amount of money at all, and if they can\u2019t get rid of those then they\u2019re never gonna do anything serious.\u2019 That\u2019s what I\u2019m hearing. People are really, really ticked at me. I think the last time they were this ticked was when I didn\u2019t endorse Perot. <\/p>\n

I\u2019m being accused of having sold out to some RINOs. They think some RINO called me on the phone and talked to me about this. All of a sudden now my thoughts are not my own. Are you getting that, Snerdley? Are you getting phone calls? You only got one or two? (interruption) Yeah, the ports deal, the Dubai Ports deal, they were mad. That\u2019s what I was trying to remember. Well, the audience was mad at me on Wednesday for trying to raise taxes in California, but that\u2019s nothing like this. You ought to see it in there. Jim Inhofe, Senator from Oklahoma, he\u2019s sending a thing out about earmarks saying it\u2019s the biggest waste of time. He said if we don\u2019t spend the money Obama\u2019s going to — I don\u2019t understand what he\u2019s saying. He\u2019s sending e-mails out and he\u2019s got an op-ed that if Congress doesn\u2019t spend the earmark money, Obama will, and better us than Obama, but he doesn\u2019t explain how Obama gets hold of it if they don\u2019t spend it. My only point about earmarks was it\u2019s tiny compared to how big the whole objective here is. I\u2019m not saying don\u2019t. Jeez. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
