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

RUSH: Sometimes we strike gold, and sometimes we find out just how petty the people we think are profoundly serious and important and statesmanlike can be. Of all the things that are going on out there that could have Barack Obama upset and angry, it would seem the last would be somebody commenting on his golf game. I mean, after all, he\u2019s the president of the United States.<\/p>\n

And, as anybody can tell by looking, he\u2019s not an athlete. So nobody expects him to be good at golf. You can just tell. Folks, don\u2019t doubt me on this. Clint Eastwood once said, as he was mowing down some bad guy in Dirty Harry — he\u2019s just pulled the trigger on the .357 Magnum and he\u2019s blowing the smoke off the barrel — “A man\u2019s got to know his limitations.” That is something is as strange and foreign to Barack Obama as to a bad guy on a Dirty Harry movie.<\/p>\n

So Michael, Michael Jordan is being interviewed by his good buddy Ahmad Rashad on the Ahmad Rashad Show, on the Back9Network. This is back on October 28th. (interruption) The Back9Network. I don\u2019t know where it is. I guess it\u2019s on the Golf Channel. Maybe it\u2019s… No, because that would be the Golf Channel.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the Back9Network, whatever. I don\u2019t know what it is, but it\u2019s Ahmad Rashad Show. Michael Jordan went on the show, and they\u2019re talking about a foursome. Every famous golfer is asked, “Pick your favorite foursome. Of any three guys you could play golf with, who would it be?”<\/p>\n

JORDAN: I never played with Obama, but I would. But nah, that\u2019s okay. I\u2019d take it out. He\u2019s a hack. I\u2019d be all day playing with him.<\/p>\n

RASHAD: You really wanna say that?<\/p>\n

JORDAN: Yeah.<\/p>\n

RASHAD: The president of the United States is a hack?<\/p>\n

JORDAN: Don\u2019t worry about it. I never said he wasn\u2019t a great politician. I just said he\u2019s a sh(bleep)y golfer.<\/p>\n

RUSH: The word that was bleeped out there is the common street word for excrement that begins with an S-H. So Michael Jordan called the president of the United States an excrement-y golfer. Okay, so if you\u2019re Obama, yuk it up. Laugh at it. Don\u2019t even react to this. But in Milwaukee on Monday he was on the radio, and they asked him about it.<\/line><\/p>\n

And instead of a lighthearted, “Hey, you know, that\u2019s just MJ. MJ and I are inseparable, good buds. MJ, he\u2019s just ragging me. He\u2019s just ragging me. He wishes he could do what I do.” No. No. Obama got his back up. He was offended. He was mad. How dare…? How dare anybody say things like that about me!<\/p>\n

OBAMA: There is no doubt that Michael\u2019s a better golfer than I am. Of course, if I was playin\u2019 twice a day for the last, uh, 15 years —<\/p>\n

REPORTER: (snickering)<\/p>\n

OBAMA — then that meant be the case, and, you know, he — he — he — he —<\/p>\n

REPORTER: (snickering)<\/p>\n

OBAMA: He might want to spend more time thinkin\u2019 about the Bobcats —<\/p>\n

REPORTER: Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!<\/p>\n

OBAMA — or maybe the Hornets. That\u2019s a whole ‘nother issue.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Wow. He\u2019s really bothered by this. He had to go dirty. (interruption) Well, Jordan kind of went there first, but that\u2019s it: The president\u2019s supposed to be above this kind of stuff. It\u2019s exactly right. He the president of the United States. He\u2019s supposed to be. You know, Bill Clinton couldn\u2019t pull this off, either.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s on Air Force One, heading into St. Louis to dedicate some new train station or something, and he\u2019s talking to our buddies doing the morning show on KMOX in St. Louis, and out of the blue — out of the blue! They didn\u2019t even ask him about me. Out of the blue Clinton says (impression), “I tell you what\u2019s gonna happen here. You know what? I\u2019m this interview with you, and then Rush Limbaugh\u2019s gonna come on after this.<\/p>\n

“He\u2019s got three hours say whatever he wants to say, and there\u2019s no truth detector! This guy… I mean, this guy can say whatever he wants!” The guys at KMOX were thinking, “Where does this come from?” They said, “Well, you want to say something to him? I mean, he\u2019s coming up right on the station after us.”<\/p>\n

(Clinton impression) “I\u2019m just saying. I\u2019m just saying, the guy\u2019s got three hours right on the radio. He can lie and say whatever he wants, and there\u2019s no truth detector.” We\u2019re all sitting here when this happens, and we\u2019re stunned. He\u2019s supposed to be above this kind of stuff. But you can tell Obama was really, really ticked. He was really bugged by this.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: I still can\u2019t get over Obama\u2019s petty, childish reaction to Michael Jordan telling the truth about Obama\u2019s golf game. You know, what you do if you\u2019re president? Okay, so you\u2019re sitting in the Oval Office and you just got this big shellacking.<\/p>\n

You\u2019re trying to figure out what to do next, and you find out that Michael Jordan\u2019s on television calling you a bad golfer. So what do you do? You don\u2019t say anything, and you treat him like he just joined the Tea Party. You call the IRS and you demands that they audit the guy, and then you find out about everything you can and so forth. You harass him that way.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s what Nixon would do. I\u2019m sorry, that\u2019s what Obama would do. Obama did that. What am I saying? He\u2019s got people in play who can already do that. He\u2019s probably got that phone number on speed dial for the IRS to harass somebody. What am I thinking? Nixon? (Snort!) Sorry, folks. It was a faux pas. Nixon only thought about doing it. This guy did it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
