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

RUSH: Now, let\u2019s go to the audio sound bites for a minute. Toya Graham, CBS This Morning. She\u2019s the mom who was seen smacking her son who she found rioting in the street while watching the riots on TV. Gayle King said, “Tell us when you first saw your son. Take us back to that moment, Toya. Relive it with us.”<\/p>\n

GRAHAM: To see my son come across the street with a rock in his hand… I think at that point I just lost it. I actually went to view Freddie Gray\u2019s body, and if he wanted to do that, I would allowed him to. But for him to do what he was doing, it was just unacceptable. He\u2019s just like the other teenagers that doesn\u2019t have the perfect relationship with the police officers and Baltimore City, but you will not be throwing rocks and stones at police officers.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

KING: Mmm-hmm.<\/p>\n

GRAHAM: At some point, who\u2019s to say that they don\u2019t have to come and protect me from something?<\/p>\n

KING: Mmm-hmm.<\/p>\n

GRAHAM: And they might not want to, knowing that you\u2019re bringing harm to them. <\/p>\n

KING: Mmm-hmm.<\/p>\n

GRAHAM: Two wrongs don\u2019t make a right.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Now, remember this. We\u2019re not talking white cops here, folks. We\u2019re not talking white police chief. We\u2019re not talking white mayor. We\u2019re not talking white power structure at all. And yet the complaints are the same. Well, she not really complaining, but the observances. The aspect of the relationship, the police department to African-American family, we\u2019ve always been told that\u2019s racist, or “racial.” <\/p>\n

But here you have a predominantly black police force in Baltimore.<\/p>\n

It sounds like the people that live there just as afraid of them as they are in Ferguson where there\u2019s white cops. There\u2019s some white cops in Baltimore, too, but the vast majority are black. The city population 60% black. The Democrat Party tells us, though, that the problem is a criminal justice system which targets blacks and wants to incarcerate them way above the national average, as though people be putting in jail for having done nothing. <\/p>\n

That argument, every time I hear this — and Hillary tried it today. Harry Reid tries it. They all trot it out. The incarceration, the percentage of black males in jail compared to whites in jail, that percentage alone is said to prove discrimination. And there\u2019s no acknowledgement, “What about the crimes that have been committed here? Did they happen or did they not? Were there convictions or were there not? Were there pleas or were there not?” <\/p>\n

We\u2019re not supposed to ask that.<\/p>\n

All we\u2019re supposed to re hear or comprehend is that there\u2019s a vastly greater percentage of African-Americans in jail than there are whites but you\u2019re not supposed to ask any more than that. So here we have a woman in Baltimore who sounds just as leery of the cops as an African-American in a predominantly white city, to me. The next sound bite. Charlie Rose said, “Does the love and the attention you\u2019re getting, so admiring of you and what you\u2019re doing, people understanding that the life of a single parent who has to work and take care of children a difficult life?”<\/p>\n

GRAHAM: I\u2019m not working at the moment. I just came from losing a job, but just coming into a — a brand-new home. So he sees me struggle. He sees the struggle that I\u2019m going through, but my children, it\u2019s just me and my children. I mean, you know, I don\u2019t go out. I don\u2019t, you know, do any that thing. Only thing I do is church, and it\u2019s me and my children.<\/p>\n

RUSH: We learned on this episode she has six kids, no husband, no job. She\u2019s trapped in Baltimore, that\u2019s been run by liberal Democrats forever. Can you imagine…? I mean, I don\u2019t know, but can you imagine what this woman thought the night Barack Obama was elected? Can you imagine what kind of hope? Can you imagine the “change” that she and millions like her just knew was coming? <\/line><\/p>\n

“Why, finally, after all these years, we\u2019re gonna have an African-American in the White House! Somebody who\u2019s one of us!” I\u2019d understand it if they felt that way. Obama\u2019s candidacy was promoted that way. His future presidency was promoted that way. What must they think today? I tell you what they think. “Somehow, it\u2019s the Republicans\u2019 fault,” if they think anything. Yep, somehow the Republicans are standing in the way of money, funding, whatever.<\/p>\n

\"large\"Again, just a reminder: We\u2019ve spent $22 million since 1965. These numbers come from Robert Rector at the Heritage Foundation<\/a>. He is a scholar on this matter. Since 1965, US taxpayers have spent over $22 trillion on anti-poverty programs. This includes the War on Poverty and the Great Society and all the food stamps and the welfare. You name it, $22 trillion that is the result of taxes. There has been a transfer of $22 trillion to producers to non-producers. <\/line><\/p>\n

If there is ever, ever a testimony to something not working, this is it: $22 trillion. It\u2019s trillion, not million. It\u2019s $22,000,000,000,000. In the mid-nineties, it was $5 trillion. That\u2019s how fast these transfer payments have increased, folks. Where do you think the national debt is? This is three times the amount of money spent on all the wars in this country, and I mention that because the left and the Democrats love to run around, “We need to cut the defense budget! We have too many social problems in America. <\/p>\n

“We spend way too much money on war and on weapons!” No, the lion\u2019s share of the national debt is this stuff, and all it\u2019s done is purchased seats of power for the Democrat Party on the false premise that they care and they\u2019re gonna lift people out of poverty once and forever. And all that\u2019s happening is the people in poverty are staying there, if they vote Democrat, and more are being added as the Democrat Party obliterates the southern border.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
