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

RUSH: There\u2019s a new Gallup poll out<\/a>, and Obama is in free fall. Thirty-nine percent job approval. That\u2019s down three points from yesterday. I don\u2019t have enough in front of me to know why, if it even explains the specifics of the poll, or if it\u2019s just a rolling day to day public opinion approval poll. But at any rate, down to 39%, in free fall. <\/p>\n

But, you know, he doesn\u2019t care. He\u2019s never cared. This has been my point all along. My point, Obama has known from the first moment he thought about being president, he\u2019s known — don\u2019t doubt me on this — he knows that what he believes and thinks is a minority position in this country. It is very important that you understand this. I don\u2019t mean to sound like I\u2019m preaching. I\u2019m trying to be intense to be persuasive here. He knows, the left knows, that they are a minority position. <\/p>\n

<\/a>The militant gay population knows they\u2019re not 30%. They know that they\u2019re less than 5%. That\u2019s what, in fact, motives \u2019em. The same thing with all of the American left. They know that they are the minority. Therefore, Obama knew from day one that he was gonna be governing against the will of the people. This has never been about popularity. It\u2019s never been about public opinon polls. I mean, they take them. They make it look like they care about \u2019em, but they\u2019ve known from the get-go that what they intended to do if it were fully known and understood would be met with mass disapproval. And that\u2019s why Obama was not specific in the \u201908 campaign. <\/p>\n

He was a blank canvas and you could make him whatever you wanted him to be. He was The Messiah, the agent of change and hope and all that, happy horse malarkey, but there was no way he was gonna be honest about what he intended to do, no way, because nobody would have voted for it. Well, he wouldn\u2019t have won. There would have been people that voted for it. So he\u2019s been governing against the will of the people from day one. The Democrat Party, ditto. <\/p>\n

So now he\u2019s at 39% in Gallup and I guarantee you he doesn\u2019t care. He expects to be there. But he doesn\u2019t care. He\u2019s got a phone, he\u2019s got a pen, he\u2019s got a Republican Party afraid to do a thing, so whatever he wants to do, and his Regime is just now hitting full stride, just a little over two and a half years to go. And now since he doesn\u2019t have to get any more votes, doesn\u2019t have to run for reelection ever again, he\u2019s free to do as much as he can. <\/p>\n

Last night Carville was on O\u2019Baxter, and the question, “Do you think it\u2019s fair, that in every area, Americans are saying he\u2019s not cutting it? Do you think it\u2019s fair his disapproval is so high?”<\/p>\n

CARVILLE: You know what, whether it\u2019s fair or not, that\u2019s public opinion. And I further think that, honestly, I don\u2019t think he much cares about his poll numbers. I think he thinks he\u2019s done and is doing a good job and history will record him. He doesn\u2019t really care.<\/line><\/p>\n

RUSH: He doesn\u2019t care. He doesn\u2019t care, he knows. He doesn\u2019t much care about polls, he doesn\u2019t care. He\u2019s exactly right, Carville, exactly right. Obama doesn\u2019t care. And so it\u2019s not gonna have any impact other than PR.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Now, Obama might not care about his approval numbers are falling, but there are some people that do, and they are other Democrats. See, right now the only way the American people can show their disapproval of Obama — short of telling Gallup or whoever — is to vote against Democrats. That\u2019s it. That\u2019s the only way, and that is going to happen in November, and the Democrats know it.<\/p>\n

The lower Obama goes in these polls, the worse they know it is gonna be for them. ‘Cause it\u2019s gonna be a referendum on Obama. He doesn\u2019t care. He took office, I\u2019m convinced, knowing full well this was going to happen. Ladies and gentlemen, I want to tell you: Obama did not win a mandate to do what he\u2019s doing because he did not campaign on any of this. He campaigned, in fact, on just the opposite.<\/p>\n

He was gonna rebuild roads and bridges and create jobs and lower health care premiums, and it was gonna be utopia and all that. It wasn\u2019t gonna be millions and millions and millions of people not working. It wasn\u2019t gonna be millions and millions and millions more people on welfare. It wasn\u2019t gonna be open borders. It wasn\u2019t gonna be flying refugees from Honduras to the United States. <\/p>\n

It wasn\u2019t gonna be any of that. If he had campaigned on that, he would not have won. But yet he knew he was gonna do all of this. He didn\u2019t tell anybody, not in terms of campaigning. So he\u2019s got no mandate for it, but it doesn\u2019t matter. This is about the fundamental transformation of America — and, by definition, it\u2019s got to happen against the will of the American people. <\/p>\n

America is an immoral, unjust place because of the American people who\u2019ve made it that way and propped it up that way. In his eyes, you\u2019re just as much to blame as the Founders. Those of you who\u2019ve prospered, those of you who do well, those of you who work hard and advance and practice the whole American dream scenario? “Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah. No. That\u2019s not right. Not fair.<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s not fair that you should succeed and some others couldn\u2019t.” It\u2019s no more complicated than that. The real fascinating thing about this is just when did the Democrat Party make this big jump to the left, as it has? ‘Cause I remember… It wasn\u2019t that long ago. The Democrat Party has always had its Looney Toon left, but that\u2019s what it was. <\/p>\n

The moderate Democrats were liberals, but the Looney Toon left has taken over this party. The Looney Toon left includes all of these Democrats who are high-tech, Silicon Valley billionaires. The Looney Toon left includes all the Hollywood left billionaires. They are the Looney Toon left driving this party. They have taken it over. The Looney Toon left involves all these environmentalist wacko wealthy billionaires and millionaires in the Democrat Party. <\/line><\/p>\n

The Looney Toon left is all the think tanks. I can remember it wasn\u2019t that long ago that the Democrat Party was constantly at war with itself, and there was no such thing as the Democrat Party being unified. It wasn\u2019t that long ago, but something has happened and the Looney Toon left has taken over this party.<\/p>\n

They all know they\u2019re in the minority, in terms of the country. But, see, they know they\u2019ve got the media, and so they can present a picture each and every day — a multiple number of pictures — that make it look like they are the majority, make it look like everybody else is the oddball, everybody else is the kook, everybody else is the weirdo. Everything they are is what\u2019s normal. Everything they want is what\u2019s normal.<\/p>\n

And by God, that\u2019s been the quest. Obama is leading that pack, so to speak. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
