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

RUSH: A new Gallup poll out. Headline: “Americans Continue to Shift Left on Key Moral Issues.”<\/a> Now, before you go off getting depressed about this, let me tell you what the reason for this is, after we give you the details. <\/p>\n

“Americans are more likely now than in the early 2000s to find a variety of behaviors morally acceptable, including gay and lesbian relations, having a baby outside of marriage and sex between an unmarried man and woman. Moral acceptability of many of these issues is now at a record-high level.”<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a subtle message to the Republican Party, and that is this: You better forget about your base. Those bitter clingers, those social conservatives, you better realize they\u2019re not it anymore, they\u2019re not where it\u2019s at anymore. Nobody agrees with \u2019em anymore. Your base is rapidly being eclipsed by a more hip and modern culture, and they are Democrats and they hate you, and you had better find a way to get rid of the religious right. You\u2019d better find a way to get rid of your base, because they are killing you. <\/p>\n

That\u2019s the message of this story, and it\u2019s gonna work with certain establishment Republicans. They\u2019ll cite this story and they\u2019ll go talk to their Republican buddies and they\u2019ll say, “See? See? I\u2019ve been telling you for 15 years abortion is gonna kill us. You wouldn\u2019t listen. I\u2019ve been telling you 15 years all this social issue crap is gonna do us in, and now look at the Gallup poll. You had better start listening to me.” This is what\u2019s gonna be happening in Republican circles, particularly in the Republican establishment in the Northeast. That\u2019s exactly why this story was done. I\u2019m convinced this is exactly why this poll is taken. <\/p>\n

<\/a>“This latest update on Americans\u2019 views of the moral acceptability of various issues and behaviors is from Gallup\u2019s May 6-10 Values and Beliefs survey. … The upward progression … clearly points toward a higher level of acceptance of a number of behaviors. In fact, the moral acceptability ratings for 10 of the issues measured since the early 2000s are at record highs.”<\/p>\n

Notice the language here. “Upward progression,” “higher level,” “record highs.” The attempt here is to convince the reader that we are making great strides forward by eliminating the moral code that used to exist. Yeah, and I would ask, how much better is the country for all of this? Just how much happier are people? How much more content? How less angst is there? I don\u2019t get the sense that we\u2019re living in a country that\u2019s having a rocking good time right now. <\/p>\n

Look, folks, I\u2019m just telling you what I see out there as I travel around and I listen, I watch, I read, I observe. Much of my life is spent observing others. And I remember, in terms of national mood, much happier times than we live in today. And if not much happier, certainly more content. And I remember times where there was much less anger and confrontation and angst. I know some of this is due to social media giving voice to all this. <\/p>\n

The argument could be made that all this hate and the sewage that\u2019s Twitter has always been there. It\u2019s just that the people that practice it never had the protection of anonymity. If they really wanted to spew this hate, they had to go out and say it in front of other people in order for it to be heard. Now they can go on Twitter or Facebook and make up an identity and say whatever they want about whoever. I know the argument that it\u2019s always been there, but the point is, even if it was there, it was beneath the surface. <\/p>\n

This degradation of our morality has allowed the baser instincts of a whole slew of people to surface and to become defined as normal and something that we must accept. Now, they can run around and strut all happy and stuff with their polls on how all of this previously immoral behavior is now wonderfully moral and openly practiced and openly accepted. They can run around and they can strut and they can spout their happiness, but they can\u2019t point to where people are. I mean even the people winning all this are not happy. Some of the angriest people in the world are the people getting married on the gay side.<\/p>\n

My point is, the left, in winning this fight to degrade the American moral code, doesn\u2019t seem to be happy with their victories. They seem angrier with every victory. “No, Mr. Limbaugh, you are confusing anger with renewed sense of purpose to keep going and not stopping.” Well, you may have a point there because nothing can apparently make any of you guys happy. No matter what — I\u2019ve always said this — no matter what the left gets, no matter what they demand, no matter how much of it they get, they are never happy. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s something I have noted my entire life. This lack of happiness, this anger, this consternation, whatever you want to call it, I know inspires much of their behavior and their political agenda. But I think it\u2019s gotten to the point where they\u2019re incapable of being happy. You know what? I think one of the reasons, I\u2019m gonna be very, very bold here. And I may be dead wrong about this. I may be acknowledging or granting them more awareness and sensitivity than they really have. <\/p>\n

But I think in the case of people that voted for Obama, because they really loved Obama, because they really believed that Obama was gonna put an end to all strife and is gonna make the country loved again. He was gonna get rid of politics-as-usual and there wasn\u2019t gonna be any partisanship and there wasn\u2019t gonna be any arguing and everybody was gonna get along. I mean, there\u2019s a lot of people that voted for Obama on that basis. It\u2019s quite understandable that they would be miffed because none of that\u2019s happened. <\/p>\n

Yet Obama\u2019s victorious. He wins practically everything he tries for. And yet everything Obama does is falling apart. American foreign policy\u2019s a joke, by design, but the American people don\u2019t want that to be the case. Obama does. The American people don\u2019t. Obamacare? Isn\u2019t a lot of happiness. I mean, the latest stories on Obamacare are the people who finally got insurance now can\u2019t afford to use it. The deductibles are too high. <\/p>\n

I have seen a happy country. I have seen a country in a good mood, and this is not it. I\u2019ve lived long enough, I\u2019ve experienced enough to know. So these people can lie to themselves all they want and they can tell themselves they\u2019re winning every day, but I don\u2019t see the accompanying happiness. I don\u2019t even see the accompanying satisfaction. You know what they\u2019re most happy about? It\u2019s not what they\u2019re gaining. It\u2019s right in the evidence of this story. Their real happiness comes from them thinking we are frustrated and defeated. <\/p>\n

I think their happiness and their satisfaction is totally encompassed — well, maybe not totally, but largely encompassed in the thrill they get at conservatives and Republicans losing. And if they happen to be Christians, that\u2019s even better. So they\u2019re taking their happiness in what they hope is the misery of other people. I don\u2019t think that\u2019s a recipe for happiness. But the left has been selling that for as long as I\u2019ve been alive. <\/p>\n

What do you think class warfare is? What do you think tax increases for the rich are? That\u2019s designed to stoke anger for the rich and then to make the middle class and the poor somehow think life is better \u2019cause the rich\u2019s taxes went up. They\u2019re supposed to take happiness, they\u2019re supposed to be satisfied that their enemies, the rich, had it stuck to \u2019em. Their lives don\u2019t change. They don\u2019t have any more money after the rich\u2019s taxes go up. So they\u2019re not happier because there\u2019s been substantive change in their lives. No, they\u2019ve been conditioned to be happy at the misery of others. That\u2019s not happiness to me. That\u2019s sick. <\/line><\/p>\n

I think it\u2019s destructive, psychologically destructive, when you measure your happiness by how unhappy other people are, or how miserable other people are, and that\u2019s what this is all about. ‘Cause I just don\u2019t see the happiness. I\u2019ll tell you, folks, if we conservatives were winning the same way the left is winning during these years with Obama, do you know how happy we\u2019d be? I mean, we\u2019d be happy, confident, sitting on top of the world, and we\u2019d be thinking we can change anything, persuade anybody of anything. We\u2019d be riding the wave. With these people there is none of that with their victories. There\u2019s anger and there\u2019s consternation and there\u2019s angst and there\u2019s bitterness. <\/p>\n

So they have to come out with stories like this to tell themselves that they\u2019re winning and they\u2019re destroying the American moral code. But you can take a look at country and say, “Well, where is it better off? Where is it better off?” I mean, parents are less trusting of their kids\u2019 safety today than I can ever remember. They\u2019re less confident that their kids are gonna even do well. Where are the signs of all of these Obama and Democrat Party victories? Where\u2019s the happiness that goes along with it? It simply isn\u2019t there. <\/p>\n

But again, the main purpose of this story, subtle message to the Republican Party, “You better abandon your base. We\u2019re winning, we\u2019re wiping \u2019em out. Those stodgy old conservative Christians, the Moral Majority, the Christian Coalition, those Victorians, people that want to deny everybody a good time, well, we\u2019re kicking butt and we\u2019re reducing them in number, and you can\u2019t win with \u2019em anymore. You had better throw \u2019em overboard.” That\u2019s the point of this. That\u2019s what I think the objective purpose is, the objective of this story is, to further persuade Republicans to abandon their own base, as they\u2019ve done in immigration and in a couple of other issues as well. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: By the way, that Gallup poll on morality and how the old morality is falling by the wayside and the new morality, which is an attack on the old morality is just riding great, great guns here. From that same story, the Gallup poll, this little note. The Gallup poll found that polygamy and cloning humans have also seen significant upshifts in moral acceptability. Really? Really? Polygamy on the upswing now being defined as perfectly okay and moral by more and more people. Try tell that to the feminazis. <\/p>\n

And then cloning? I don\u2019t know, folks. That\u2019s a toughie. I\u2019m trying to imagine low-information voters answering questions about cloning humans. Ah, I can see it. Check out this very un-PC definition of marriage. This is from the 1989 version of the Oxford English Dictionary. Here\u2019s the definition of marriage from 1989: Commune marriage, the system prevailing amongst some primitive peoples by which within a small community all the men are regarded as married to all the women and vice-versa, sometimes called group marriage, sometimes called polygamy. <\/p>\n

Primitive people, primitive people believed in this kind of stuff, in the old definition. And now what primitive people used to believe is becoming mainstream acceptable. And there\u2019s no end in sight once you blow up the definition of marriage. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
