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

RUSH: Grab sound bite number 19, John Boehner, the Speaker of the House. By the way, the Republican Party is leaving Washington. The Republicans have left town with no plan to deal with this, and it\u2019s not as though they were blindsided. Anyway, this was at a little press event that the Speaker had on Capitol Hill today. Just a little portion. We got about 45 seconds of it.<\/p>\n

BOEHNER: All year long, I\u2019ve warned the president that by taking unilateral action on matters such as this health care law or by threatening action repeatedly on immigration, he was making it impossible to build the trust necessary to work together. As I warned the president, you can\u2019t ask the elected representatives of the people to trust you to enforce the law if you\u2019re constantly demonstrating that you can\u2019t be trusted to enforce the law. The president never listened, and with this action he\u2019s refused to listen to the American people. The president has taken actions that he himself has said are those of a king or an emperor, not an American president.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, he did. Yeah, he did. Okay. He did. <\/line><\/p>\n

Now what? <\/p>\n

This is what everybody wants to know here. Everybody knows what he did. Most everybody. I maintain that even people like Geraldo and these others that are applauding and this Ramos guy from Univision, all know it\u2019s the legal. It\u2019s just that some of them are celebrating it. But they all know, and everybody knows it\u2019s unconstitutional. <\/p>\n

So? <\/p>\n

It\u2019s literally mind-boggling. <\/p>\n

So many people are apparently of the belief that the illegal or unconstitutional act alone is enough to engender corrective measures in response, and we\u2019re seeing that it just doesn\u2019t work that way. So the Constitution is still full of holes.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Here\u2019s Robert in Waldorf, Maryland, as we head to the phones on Open Line Friday. Great to have you on the program. Hello, sir.<\/p>\n

CALLER: How you doing, Rush? How you hitting \u2019em?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Pretty good. Well, hitting? Actually, since you ask, I\u2019m crushing \u2019em.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Too cold up here to hit \u2019em.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, that\u2019s why I don\u2019t live up there.<\/p>\n

CALLER: That\u2019s terrible. But I\u2019ve been listening to you every day. You keep me well educated and I thank you for that. But I got a different way of looking at it and I wanted to run it by you. I think that maybe Obama just blew up the Democrat Party, \u2019cause to me as long as the Republicans don\u2019t get their hand in this, this is now on him and the Democrats, and I just think that that\u2019s gonna backfire on them.<\/p>\n

The people were already mad two weeks ago. The people were pretty clear to me what they said two weeks ago, and basically last night he flipped all of us the bird. But I think by him doing this, he just blew up the whole Democrat Party, and I heard you yesterday say they\u2019re gonna march on and all, but I think he really did them great damage yesterday.<\/p>\n
