They\u2019re for dirty water and they\u2019re for dirty air and they\u2019re for poison and all that stuff.  So the first montage is some members of Congress talking about the vote to repeal Obamacare.<\/p>\n<p>DANIEL KILDEE:  Today for the 56th time, we will see a vote on the floor of the House to take away health care for millions of Americans.<\/p>\n<p>JOE KENNEDY:  More than eight million children will lose access to health insurance.<\/p>\n<p>STENY HOYER: Republicans are choosing to take away healthcare coverage from millions of Americans.<\/p>\n<p>DEBBIE DINGELL:  Over 9.5 million Americans would be hurt and left behind.<\/p>\n<p>JIM MCGOVERN: If Republicans get their way, all these things will disappear.<\/p>\n<p>JARED POLIS:  Republicans want you to pay for Obamacare and not get it.<\/p>\n<p>TONY CARDENAS: Republicans need to stop playing games with people\u2019s lives.<\/p>\n<p>JIM MCDERMOTT: They come with a bulldozer and they want to knock the house down and put everybody out in the street again.<\/p>\n<p>CHARLIE RANGEL: Give the sick an opportunity to get well, to allow children the opportunity to breathe. What about the born, the aged, the disabled?<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_101721\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/WarOnChildren.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH:  That was Charlie Rangel.  What about the born?  Since when did Democrats care about them?  The born, the aged, the disabled. so that\u2019s the Democrats reacting to a Republican vote yesterday to repeal Obamacare, and you see how they portray Republicans: heartless, cold, mean-spirited, extremist and all that.  I want to take you back 20 years ago just to show you how this is done and how their playbook doesn\u2019t change.  This is from our TV show in 1995.  It\u2019s a montage of a bunch of Democrats talking about the Republicans and the budget.  This is the monumental budget fight of 1995.  The school lunch bill and all of that.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>THOMAS BARRETT:  Why do the Republicans want to take apples and milk away from six year olds?<\/p>\n<p>LYNN WOOLSEY:  Starving children is not the solution.<\/p>\n<p>RICHARD GEPHARDT: The Republicans are taking food out of the mouths of millions of needy children.<\/p>\n<p>GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: It\u2019s cruel to kids.<\/p>\n<p>DICK DURBIN:  Stop declaring war on our kids.<\/p>\n<p>TED KENNEDY:  War on their children.  War on their children.<\/p>\n<p>PAT SCHROEDER: I also would like to speak to a moment about the mean-spiritedness I\u00c2\u2019m hearing about on the floor today.<\/p>\n<p>PAUL VOLCKER:  But how can they be so mean-spirited?<\/p>\n<p>RICHARD GEPHARDT: These cuts are mean-spirited.<\/p>\n<p>JOSE SERRANO: The mean-spirited Republicans.<\/p>\n<p>PAUL WELLSTONE: It is mean-spirited.  It is vicious.<\/p>\n<p>JERRY NADLER: These draconian, mean-spirited and immoral cuts in funding.<\/p>\n<p>PAT SCHROEDER: We\u00c2\u2019re seeing draconian cuts.<\/p>\n<p>ALBERT WYNN: Once again, they\u00c2\u2019re playing Robin Hood in reverse, taking from the poor to give to the rich.<\/p>\n<p>LUIS GUTIERREZ:  We\u00c2\u2019re gonna let the kids go hungry again.<\/p>\n<p>JOHN LEWIS:  They\u00c2\u2019re coming for our children.  They\u00c2\u2019re coming for the poor.  They\u00c2\u2019re coming for the sick, the elderly and the disabled.    <\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  That was John Lewis from Selma fame.  So that was the budget, that was the Republicans and their school lunch cuts in 1995.  The previous bite was Republicans and their vote to repeal Obamacare, and that\u2019s what the measles thing was about yesterday. That\u2019s what they were trying to setup.  They were trying to setup a forthcoming montage, the Republicans didn\u2019t care about kids getting sick, didn\u2019t care about kids dying, didn\u2019t care about kids not getting vaccinated, didn\u2019t care about kids not being treated.  That\u2019s what they were trying to set up.  <\/p>\n<p>But then Hillary and Obama\u2019s quotes on vaccines were produced from 2008, and a bunch of lies told by the New York Times yesterday were exposed, and so ISIS is the big news today.  Not measles.  But, don\u2019t worry, they\u2019ll come back to it.  They\u2019ll get back to it.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: The House Republicans passed an Obamacare repeal again and the Democrats resort to their same old playbook, which is Republicans hate children, they hate sick people, and they want everybody to die.
