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

RUSH: Gainesville, Florida. This is Kim, and welcome. It\u2019s great to have you here. Hi.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Thank you so much for taking my call.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You know, Kim is one of my all-time top ten favorite female names.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I\u2019m so excited.<\/p>\n

RUSH: It really is. <\/p>\n

CALLER: Thank you.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You bet.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hey, I hope this story makes you smile as much as it did me yesterday. I was driving my eighth grade daughter home from school, and it\u2019s midterm week for the eighth graders.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/map>\n<\/p>\n

CALLER: She was talking about her US history exam and so I was asking her how it went and everything, and she said, “Well, you know, Mom, last night when I was studying,” she said, “I was going through the book, and I was going through my notes, and I picked up Rush Limbaugh\u2019s book<\/a>,” and she said, “I was reading it to study.” And I kind of looked at her, I said, “Are you serious?” And she said, “Yeah. And guess what, Mom? It helped.” And I said, “That\u2019s awesome.” I said, “Tell me how it helped.” And part of the exam was an essay that they had to write from the perspective of a Massachusetts resident during the Revolutionary War.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, cool!<\/p>\n

CALLER: And she said, “So I could write this,” she said, “as if I were there, because I sorta was.” Doesn\u2019t that just make you get chill bumps?<\/p>\n

RUSH: It does. It absolutely does.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I couldn\u2019t believe it. I was so proud of her. She said that there were things in the book that she read that they did not teach her in school.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah. You know, we\u2019re hearing a lot of that from even adults —<\/p>\n

CALLER: I know.<\/p>\n

RUSH: — who are reading the books, and they\u2019re saying, “Gosh, I didn\u2019t know this about this or that aspect of American history.”<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, it made me so happy. I had to let you know. Thank you so much for what you\u2019ve done. I hope you don\u2019t stop writing.<\/p>\n

RUSH: No, no, no, thank you. I can\u2019t tell you, that is, I mean, music to my ears. We had many hopes and dreams with this book series. First and foremost is actually teaching love for America —<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yep.<\/p>\n

RUSH: — and respect for it. And countering all the hate and the criticism. There\u2019s reasons to really love and appreciate this country. And so many of these things aren\u2019t being taught anymore. That\u2019s number one. Number two, bring families together, have kids and their parents or grandkids, grandparents read these books together, have them explained, discussed. But that is ideal. The book has come in handy and helped her pass a test —<\/line><\/p>\n

CALLER: Yep.<\/p>\n

RUSH: — in addition to all the other materials she had to study. You made my day.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Can I tell you one more thing?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah. Of course.<\/p>\n

CALLER: There are students in her school that will not pledge allegiance to the flag in the morning because they say it\u2019s brainwashing. And my daughter is disgusted.<\/p>\n

RUSH: This is eighth grade?<\/p>\n

CALLER: This is eighth grade. Yep. Eighth grade.<\/p>\n

RUSH: I was 12 or 13 in eighth grade. How old is your daughter?<\/p>\n

CALLER: She\u2019s 13.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, it\u2019s about right. Things haven\u2019t changed. <\/p>\n

CALLER: I can\u2019t thank you enough. I\u2019m reading the first book myself, and I\u2019m enjoying it as well.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You know, this is my point. The Pledge of Allegiance is considered propaganda. That\u2019s what they\u2019re being told. These kids weren\u2019t born thinking that stuff. Who\u2019s putting this crap in their heads? Maybe their parents. Maybe the schools. But to think the Pledge of Allegiance is propaganda? If they think that\u2019s propaganda, what are they believing is the truth? Anyway, Kim, I can\u2019t thank you enough. I appreciate your call. Thanks much. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
