I called my grandmother up the next day, and I said, &#8220;This man, it doesn\u2019t matter if you\u2019re a Republican or Democrat, he\u2019s telling the truth about you.&#8221; It was the one where they were taking big checks and going in and buying a roll of stamps from the post office across the street, and getting the change and putting it in their pocket &#8212; the big, big wads of money. He was telling them about that, and I told my grandmother about that. She said, &#8220;Yeaah, and he\u2019s on the radio every day,&#8221; and she had been listening to him all along. I didn\u2019t even know.<\/p>\n<p>BRETT: (laughing)<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: (laughing) That\u2019s something else, man. But, you know, I tell you what, to lay there and know what &#8220;Pinocchio&#8221; and Obama were doing to our country &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>BRETT: Yes, sir.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: &#8212; and still tuning in to listen to Rush every day, that helped me out so much. You just don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n<p>BRETT: Well, I know that he would be so proud and so happy to know that he is connected with you for 29 years. For 29 years, you were out there in the audience, and you are proving it by talking about the congressional bank that they used to run with the stamps and the scams.<\/p>\n<p>We still run parodies about that itself. Ron in Alabama, I so appreciate you coming by on the program and sharing the story. That\u2019s a couple of generations &#8212; that\u2019s three generations &#8212; of folks, you and your grandma listening to the program, and I appreciate you being out there, sir.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Thank y\u2019ll. We\u2019ll be here.<\/p>\n<p>BRETT: Bless you. All the best. That\u2019s Ron in Alabama, 29 years spent listening to the Rush Limbaugh Show. You keep listening, Ron.
