The news media is out there hyping terrorism again, exactly what the president doesn\u2019t want to happen, \u2019cause he doesn\u2019t think there is any.  He really doesn\u2019t.  There\u2019s no terrorism.  It\u2019s just a bunch of random-acting folks out there that are doing random acts, mean things to people.  But there\u2019s no terrorism about it, there\u2019s nothing organized.  It\u2019s just a bunch of unhappy random people doing things.  The media is reporting that the fourth, and presumably last, hostage held by ISIS has been confirmed to be dead.  That would be Kayla Mueller. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_102090\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaVox8.jpg\"\/><BR\/>Can you imagine how he\u2019s reacting to this today, the media hyping another American killed by ISIS and ignoring the most important issue out there, global warming, man-made global warming?  I mean, that\u2019s what the president\u2019s trying to convince everybody.  Man-made global warming is at the top of the list. All of this stuff by ISIS, it\u2019s just random folks doing random things.  The president\u2019s already put out a statement on the young woman\u2019s death.  I haven\u2019t had a chance to read his statement in its entirety. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>Snerdley, did Obama say anything about Kayla Mueller being killed by random shooting from some folks?  (interruption)  Well, I mean, in case you\u2019ve missed it, that\u2019s how Obama described the attack on that Jewish deli in Paris and on the magazine in Paris where the Muslim terrorists sought out and gunned down some Jewish people, which Obama views as just random shooting like the kinds that occur every night in Chicago.  Here\u2019s what he said.  This was on the Vox.com website this morning.  Matthew Yglesias interviewing Obama about foreign policy, and this is what Obama had to say about terrorism.<\/p>\n<p>OBAMA:  When you\u2019ve got a bunch of violent, vicious zealots, uh, who behead people or randomly shoot, uh, a bunch of folks in, uh, a deli in Paris, it is right and appropriate for us to be vigilant and aggressive in trying to deal with that, the same way that a big city mayor\u2019s gotta cut the crime rate down if he wants that city to thrive.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"585\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gx81Y3AynZk\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  So there isn\u2019t any terrorism out there. This is not militant Al-Qaeda. It\u2019s not ISIS.  It\u2019s just some zealots, some random folks doing some shooting, bunch of violent, vicious zealots, beheading people.  Yeah, violent, vicious folks beheading people.  Randomly shooting a bunch of folks in a deli in Paris.  Yeah, we should be mad about that, we should be vigilant and aggressive, the same way a big city mayor\u2019s gotta cut down the crime rate, like in Chicago. <\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s no different than that, folks, and all of this hysteria about terrorism is uncalled for and unwarranted, and the media should stop hyping it and get focused on what Obama really cares about, and that\u2019s the government taking over the Internet, something called net neutrality, and of course man-made global warming.  <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Here\u2019s Josh Earnest, the White House press secretary today at the daily briefing.  Jonathan Karl of ABC News said, &#8220;Is the president saying, as he seems to be implying here, the threat of climate change is greater than the threat of terrorism, Josh?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>EARNEST:  There are many more people on an annual basis who have to confront the impact, the direct impact on their lives of climate change or on the spread of a disease, than on terrorism.<\/p>\n<p>KARL:  So the answer is yes, the president thinks that climate change is a greater threat than terrorism?<\/p>\n<p>EARNEST:  Well, you\u2019re talking about the direct daily impact of these kinds of challenges &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Name one!<\/p>\n<p>EARNEST:  &#8212; on the daily lives of Americans &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Stop the tape, name one.<\/p>\n<p>EARNEST:  &#8212; particularly the American &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  What the hell, what daily impact?  What dramatic changes in people\u2019s lives is brought on by global warming?  Is unemployment because of global warming?  Is the fact that people can\u2019t get health insurance, is that \u2019cause of global warming?  Is it people have been converting from full time to part time, that because of global?  What the hell is he talking about?  Name one impact, daily impact on people\u2019s lives brought about by climate change.  Are people sweating more?  Tell that to the people in Boston.  This is absurd.  I opened the program making a joke because of this very thing. I mean, I make a joke about it and less than three hours later they come out and admit it.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Back to the audio sound bites here.  This is Bob Beckel last night on The Five on Fox. The Drive-Bys are trying to explain Obama and the reason why he\u2019s downplaying terrorism. (paraphrased) &#8220;There is no terrorism! There\u2019s just some &#8216;folks\u2019 doing random shootings.&#8221;  That\u2019s what he said in the Vox interview.  &#8220;Ah, there\u2019s just some random shootings. The &#8216;folks\u2019 are just getting involved.&#8221;  He will not say &#8220;terrorists,&#8221; he will not call it &#8220;terrorism,&#8221; and here\u2019s Bob Beckel\u2019s explanation for why.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_102118\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" alt=\"large\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/BeckelMuslim_large.jpg\"\/><BR\/>BECKEL:  You know what I\u2019ve finally figured out about this, I think, is I think Obama grew up among Muslims. I think he was very strongly affected by Muslims.  I think in his dream of dreams he hopes that these guys aren\u2019t really Muslims, and he doesn\u2019t want to call them Muslims because he really does like Muslims.  Here\u2019s a guy that was very much affected by Muslims in his life. Uh, he had friends who were Muslims.  I think he just doesn\u2019t want to make himself believe that they could be a nasty group.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Okay.  (interruption)  What is Beckel saying?  Well, okay. Let\u2019s parse it, shall we?  Bob Beckel said, &#8220;You know what I\u2019ve finally figured out about this, I think, is I think Obama grew up among Muslims. I think he was very strongly affected by Muslims.  I think in his dream of dreams he hopes that these guys aren\u2019t really Muslims&#8230;&#8221; To hell with the dreams.  What about real life?  Are you&#8230;? Well.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;[H]e doesn\u2019t want to call them Muslims because he really does like Muslims.&#8221; He doesn\u2019t know Muslims that act like this. &#8220;Here\u2019s a guy that was very much affected by Muslims in his life. He had friends who were Muslims.  I think he just doesn\u2019t want to make himself believe that they could be a nasty group.&#8221; (interruption)  You think there\u2019s any more to it than that?  What are you&#8230;? (interruption)  Well, he said he grew up among Muslims; he was strongly affected by Muslims.<\/p>\n<p>In his dream of dreams, he thinks these guys aren\u2019t really Muslims. (chuckles) There\u2019s also the fact that there\u2019s a lot of them, and he just may not want to make \u2019em mad. (chuckles) Yeah.  Yeah.  I know.  I know.  &#8220;Walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, but isn\u2019t a duck.&#8221;  That\u2019s Beckel\u2019s explanation here. Beckel\u2019s finally figured it out. (summarized) &#8220;He just can\u2019t believe it.  He\u2019s president of the United States, and he just can\u2019t believe that these guys are Islamists. He can\u2019t believe they\u2019re Muslims.  He knows Muslims, and they don\u2019t do this.&#8221; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Do you believe it?
