\"Listen<\/a><\/p>\n

RUSH: Speaking of crocks, here\u2019s Obama. He tried to interrupt this program at one o\u2019clock today, but we didn\u2019t fall for it. He went to the National Counterterrorism Center, met with the intelligence guys, and came out and had a meeting with the media to talk about what we\u2019re facing, what we\u2019re doing, how everything\u2019s okay; don\u2019t sweat it. Here\u2019s a portion of what he said…<\/p>\n

OBAMA: With groups like ISIL trying to radicalize people to violence, especially online, part of our meeting today focused on how we can continue to strengthen our partnership between law enforcement, high-tech leaders, communities, faith leaders, and citizens.<\/p>\n

RUSH: That\u2019s hogwash.<\/p>\n

OBAMA: We got keep on building up trust and cooperation that helps communities inoculate themselves from the kind of propaganda that ISIL\u2019s spewing out, preventing their loved ones, especially young people, from succumbing to terrorist ideologies in the first place.<\/line><\/p>\n

RUSH: Now, folks, this is just gobbledygook. See, this is what… We talked about “intelligence”<\/a> yesterday, and Trump doesn\u2019t have any, and all these intellectuals… This guy, Obama, passes for brilliance in Washington, in political circles, academic circles. “Well, part of our meeting today focused on we continue to strengthen our partnership between law and…” What partnership? What is this? Can you speak English? “Our partnership with high-tech…” You already are partners! Google is running everything you want to do. <\/p>\n

“Partnership with our communities”? You\u2019re at odds with communities. What is this “partnership business”? Faith leaders? Faith leaders don\u2019t trust you, other than Reverend Wright. These are just citizens. Have you seen your approval numbers? And he gotta keep on “building up trust and cooperation that helps communities inoculate themselves from ISIL propaganda”? He means we have to inoculate Muslim communities from extremism. There\u2019s only one way to do that, but you\u2019re not gonna get me to say that \u2019cause I want to be here tomorrow. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: By the way, one other thing Obama said on his little meeting with the press when he came out after having met the intel guys at the National Counterterrorism Center: He again assured us that there is no threat against the United States. It\u2019s exactly what he said shortly before the San Bernardino massacre. He also said that any refugee coming from Syria will continue to get the most rigorous screening of any screening in the world<\/a>. He said, “Any refugee coming to the US will continue to get the most intensive scrutiny of any arrival.” There\u2019s no way! It\u2019s not possible. These people are not part of a database! The only thing we can do is interview \u2019em. <\/p>\n

“Are you a terrorist?” <\/line><\/p>\n

“No! No way! I have never blown up anything in my life, and I never intend to.”<\/p>\n

“Fine, come on in. Next! Have you ever engaged in terrorism or have you thought about it?” <\/p>\n

“No. No way. I\u2019m insulted you would even ask. What would make you think that?” <\/p>\n

“Fine. Come on in.”<\/p>\n

That\u2019s it! It isn\u2019t much more than that. We ask \u2019em about their religion because we have to. If they\u2019re fleeing religious persecution, we have to know what it is. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
