I\u2019m glad you called. Great to have you on the EIB Network. Hello, sir.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hi. Yesterday you had a little boy on the phone who was concerned about the way the country was going. And since you know liberals like you know every inch of your naked body, I was wondering how does a liberal able, in their mind, to justify giving away the country and yet still be able to go home at night and look their kids in the eye and say, &#8220;I love you,&#8221; and their grandkids, &#8220;I love you,&#8221; when they know that when they give so much away, that it\u2019s gonna be gone forever?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, it\u2019s an interesting question. It\u2019s an easy answer, from my standpoint, but I need one more bit of information from you. What do you mean specifically when you say that they\u2019re giving so much away of the country?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, now, with this illegal immigration that\u2019s &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Okay.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: &#8212; open borders, they want people &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Good example.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: &#8212; coming in. Then they\u2019re going to take money away from rich people to give to those people &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Right.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: &#8212; through health care and through food stamps &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Do you want a truthful answer?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, I think the nation needs a truthful answer.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, are you prepared to accept the truth? Because that\u2019s what I\u2019m gonna tell you.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, yeah, because I\u2019m &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You may not believe it, is the point. Okay, well, I\u2019m glad you\u2019re prepared, because the very fact that you\u2019re asking the question is telling. It\u2019s a good question, don\u2019t misunderstand, but you\u2019re struggling with it, I can tell. Here\u2019s the answer. The people that you\u2019re talking about, they\u2019re one or two, three, four different types of liberals. You have the leadership liberal. Then you have the blind follower liberal. Then you have the intellectual liberal who thinks he\u2019s smarter than everybody else, and then you\u2019ve got just the stragglers who are just going along with it because they feel good doing it. In other words, not all these people could give you intellectual reasons for it. In fact, very few of them could because the reason they\u2019re doing it is feelings.<\/p>\n<p>The fundamental the belief they have that enables them to literally give the country away, as you\u2019re saying, they have a deep-rooted disagreement with the country as founded. They believe the country was founded under false pretense. They think the country was founded on slavery and racism and bigotry and favoritism to the rich. They do not think the United States economy has been legitimately built because it has been built on the theft of resources and materials from countries around the world we have gone and conquered and stolen things.<\/p>\n<p>The wealth of the country is not legitimate because it\u2019s been built on the backs of the poor who have never been properly compensated for their work, and it is they who actually built this country while the rich got the spoils. They don\u2019t believe anything about the founding of this country that is legitimate, that it is a rigged game from the get-go. They also have a deep-seated, inexorable bias against any majority. Any majority is, by definition, illegitimate. A majority has way too much power simply because of numbers. And because of those numbers, that majority can punish and discriminate against and mistreat the minorities. Not just racial, but I\u2019m talking about numerical minorities.<\/p>\n<p>So majorities are inherently horrible and mean-spirited and extremist. And so all of this, giving away the country, is finally making it fair. We are simply returning this country to the people who were here first, in the case of Native Americans and now the Mexicans and other Central Americans, and we are acknowledging that we took what wasn\u2019t ours from them and made ourselves into a superpower that we never really deserved. And so this is now get even. This is payback.<\/p>\n<p>This is where liberals make themselves feel worthwhile by admitting that all the country has become is illegitimate, and this is how they are asking for forgiveness from all the minorities, be they racial, be they ethnic, be they religious. They believe that the country is one giant grievance and that every minority that has ever existed has a legitimate grievance against this country from day one.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_102383\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/giveaway.jpg\"\/><BR\/>Now, you\u2019re asking, &#8220;Well, why all of a sudden?&#8221; They have always thought this. This is not a new thing. What is bringing it to the surface is that we finally elected somebody who thinks all of this. The Democrat Party has been taken over by these kind of leftists in the last 30 years. They\u2019ve always been there, but they themselves used to be, in a practical sense, their own minority in the Democrat Party. But now they\u2019ve taken it over and they run it, and it\u2019s not your grandfather or your father\u2019s Democrat Party anymore.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>It is a bunch of radical leftists who don\u2019t have the same appreciation or love for the country, so they don\u2019t even look at it as giving it away. They look at it as perfecting it. They look at it as being fair. They look at it as spreading opportunity equally and denying the opportunity to people simply \u2019cause of their skin color or \u2019cause of who their mommy and daddy were. They are getting rid of all of that favoritism, all of that injustice and they are inculcating and implementing social justice, which means that everybody\u2019s equal and everybody\u2019s gonna get as much and everybody\u2019s gonna get the same, and the government is the instrument to make all of this work.<\/p>\n<p>And it cannot get too big. And the government is populated by people of deep compassion who really care. And if they screw up now and then, it\u2019s okay because their intentions are honorable, and that\u2019s what has to be judged. Never the outcome of their ideas, never the results of their policies. We are to judge their intentions, and their intentions are gigantic, and they\u2019re rooted in compassion and their huge hearts because they are good people.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re trying to save the earth. This country is destroying the climate. They are saving it. If the big industrialized parts of the country need to be destroyed and torn apart or given away, so be it; it\u2019s necessary to save the world. It\u2019s a magnet to people who are weak, who are lacking in confidence, who don\u2019t think they ever will amount to anything, who want meaningfulness in their lives and think their lives in and of themselves are meaningless; liberalism gives them all of this.<\/p>\n<p>None of this is intellectual. This is all gut-level emotion and it\u2019s the result of propaganda. It\u2019s the result of indoctrination, because none of it\u2019s true. None of it\u2019s real. But they live and breathe it as though it is. If you have the courage to believe that, that\u2019s the answer to your question.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: And let me add one thing in my answer to the caller who wanted to know, how is it that liberals are so comfortable with just giving this country away, as in amnesty and endless illegal immigration. Another thing that I should have added is that there is very little reverence for the Constitution. Many liberals think the Constitution is a limiting document, not a liberating document.<\/p>\n<p>Many liberals don\u2019t like the Constitution because they want government to have as much control over life as possible, to make things fair and equal, and the Constitution limits what government can do. The Constitution liberates and empowers people, and liberals do not trust people to make the right decisions in their own lives or with other people. Liberals don\u2019t trust you to eat the right things!<\/p>\n<p>How in the world can you have militant vegetarians? But we do! Have you ever heard of a militant beefeater? Have you ever had of a guy that loves steak demanding and protesting and putting out of business vegetarian places, demanding everybody eat steak? No. But how many militant vegetarians do you know trying to shut down McDonald\u2019s or trying to shut down the beef industry?<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re all over the place, and they\u2019re doing it to the basis of climate change.<\/p>\n<p>They don\u2019t want you to have the freedom to eat what you want because you don\u2019t know what\u2019s best. They want the government to control what you can and can\u2019t eat, and they want the government in charge of your health care when you get sick. But if you have made yourself sick, you\u2019re on your own. Other people shouldn\u2019t have to pay for your wanton health negligence. That\u2019s why you should eat what they tell you. They don\u2019t revere the Constitution. They look at it as an enemy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Randall in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. I\u2019m glad you called.
