I had a sound bite yesterday from the governor of Nebraska and I did not get to it, and I could shoot myself for not getting to it.  I don\u2019t need it now, too late now.  It\u2019s my bad.  But I can tell you what it was about. <\/p>\n<p>The governor of Nebraska was livid when he found out that a whole <a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=8918\">slew of these children crossing the border<\/a> are being dumped in his state and nobody told him, he didn\u2019t know.  That was the sound bite.  And it\u2019s happening to a lot of governors.  They\u2019re not being told.  That Border Patrol and Homeland Security and whoever it is, these companies the Regime has hired to handle transportation logistics, they\u2019re just dumping these kids. They\u2019re dumping them with families, I mean, they\u2019re dumping them in houses and homes.  They\u2019re not dumping \u2019em on the street, but the governors of these states do not know it. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_93420\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaSuburbsImmigKurtzBookPIX_5791485863e11.jpg\"\/><BR\/>There\u2019s a story about this today at National Review Online, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nationalreview.com\/campaign-spot\/382748\/were-all-becoming-border-states-now-jim-geraghty\">Jim Geraghty\u2019s column<\/a>.  Obama\u2019s Feds secretly inserting what are essentially illegal alien invasion forces into the states and not telling state authorities.  And there\u2019s a link to the study or the report.  We had the sound bite from the governor yesterday.  Now, there\u2019s a dot here that is not being connected.  You remember me telling you, and I interviewed this guy for the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/\/pages\/static\/limbaugh-letter\">Limbaugh Letter<\/a>. Stanley Kurtz of National Review wrote a book on his demographic study of what he says is Obama\u2019s war on America\u2019s suburbs.  And there is a related initiative at Housing and Urban Development called AFFH, Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>Now, Kurtz\u2019s theory is &#8212; and you know that leftists are very upset at what they think is the unfairness and the disparity between city dwellers and suburban.  They think suburban dwellers are basically effete, elite, upper middle class rich snobs who fled the filthy confines of the city to escape it, leaving behind the poor and the disadvantaged to wallow in the garbage.  And this isn\u2019t fair. <\/p>\n<p><BR\/>So Kurtz has a theory that Obama has a war on the suburbs to take people from the inner city and put them in the suburbs via affordable housing right in these suburban neighborhoods.  It is happening, and I will take a break and explain it in a moment.<\/line><BR\/>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/line><\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Stanley Kurtz said in his interview with me in the Limbaugh Letter, as well as in his book, that this transformation of the suburbs would be a major tenet of Obama\u2019s second term. <\/p>\n<p>Now, when did this border crisis start?  Second term.  What do we have?  We\u2019re being overrun.  There\u2019s no end in sight, by the way, and the news is that there\u2019s no end in sight.  The governments of Mexico and Guatemala are facilitating the trip north by these kids.  There\u2019s no end to this, folks.  Nobody\u2019s trying to stop it.  Obama\u2019s not trying to stop it.  The Republicans aren\u2019t trying to stop it.  That\u2019s why this poll is so cockeyed. <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=14953\"><img id=\"eZObject_93416\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaSuburbs_Pix_579148586c00d.jpg\"\/><\/a>And these kids, what\u2019s happening to them?  Nobody\u2019s allowed to see. Nobody\u2019s allowed to know, are they?  That\u2019s why the governor of Nebraska was a little bit upset when he found out that a bunch of \u2019em are ending up in his state, which takes us back to Stanley Kurtz.  Kurtz makes the point that Obama and the left &#8212; and this is true, this is not opinion. They will tell you this if you listen to them.  They think people that live in the suburbs &#8212; well, they resent them.  You\u2019ve heard a term applied to suburbanites called &#8220;white flight,&#8221; have you not?  That\u2019s how Obama looks at it. <\/p>\n<p>Obama, Eric Holder, and many on the left in the Democrat Party think that people in suburbia fled the city to get away from minorities, essentially, to get away from the poor. To get away from dilapidated buildings and crumbling infrastructure.  They moved to the suburbs and they formed these communities which are clean and prosperous and it\u2019s not fair because the poor couldn\u2019t leave, the poor were trapped.  The upwardly mobile, because of their relative affluence, were able to leave and move.<\/p>\n<p>So Obama has had a war on the suburbs.  And do not doubt this.  This is something that\u2019s never gonna be in the news.  This is something that\u2019s part of the Obama agenda that\u2019s never going to be openly stated, just like he never openly stated that he was for socialized medicine.  He did in closed session with his union buddy supporters, but he\u2019ll never put it as part of the agenda. <\/p>\n<p>Now, how this is happening is this. There\u2019s an initiative from the Housing and Urban Development department called Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing.  The concept, as it is properly understood, is to change the enforcement paradigm in order to allow the Department of Housing and Urban Development to essentially decide what every neighborhood in America should look like.  Now, if you go, &#8220;Come on, Rush.&#8221;  Let me just ask you to remember something. <\/p>\n<p>How long is it been, in your memory, that you\u2019ve heard Democrats say that diversity is our greatest strength, diversity is our greatest power, and that we must have a government that represents the diversity of America. We must have cabinet department that represents the diversity. We must have a Supreme Court that represents the diversity.  You\u2019ve heard this now.  And of course diversity means one thing:  skin color.  It doesn\u2019t mean different rich cultural differences that they want to meld.  This is purely skin color. <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/1595230920?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=theofficiw0c2-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=1595230920\"><img id=\"eZObject_93415\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushBookStanleyKurtz.jpg\"\/><\/a>It\u2019s a reverse affirmative action kind of thing.  But that\u2019s what they mean by &#8220;diversity.&#8221;  They\u2019re skin-deep people, and they simply say, &#8220;We have to have diversity based on the appearance of the mixture of the people in any particular group, including a neighborhood.&#8221;  And if a neighborhood is not properly diverse, then the Housing and Urban Development department, along with its Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing initiative is going to be able to decide and proscribe what every neighborhood in America should look like.  So the paradigm for decades has been that discrimination is illegal, right?  That has been how everybody has lived and governed their life, discrimination is illegal. <\/p>\n<p>Okay, but discrimination in housing has been illegal for 40 years.  Yet we have segregated neighborhoods.  Why is that?  If discrimination is illegal and yet we have segregated neighborhoods, how is this happening?  And it is more often than not, dare I say, because people want to live among their own racial and ethnic roots.  It\u2019s not that they\u2019re being denied the chance to live somewhere.  It\u2019s that they are choosing to live with, quote, unquote, their own kind.  This is especially true among minorities. <\/p>\n<p>So, since the Regime, because discrimination has been illegal for 40 years, they could never prove illegal discrimination, the social engineers in the Regime now say that what they must do is attack the root causes of de facto segregation and find out why people want to live among their own and change that.  And the way they\u2019re going to change it is to mandate that states integrate by essentially building low-income housing in nicer suburban neighborhoods.  And the penalty would be millions in federal funds would be withheld from municipalities that don\u2019t comply. <\/p>\n<p>You people in Westchester County in New York <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/online.wsj.com\/articles\/westchester-usa-1404771358\">know exactly what I\u2019m talking<\/a> about because there is a huge lawsuit going on right now over just this.  The Regime is requiring to get even with all of this flight to the suburbs that took place back in the fifties and sixties and seventies.  And it\u2019s continued to happen.  And it isn\u2019t fair.  It just isn\u2019t fair that some people should be able to get out of the hellholes while others have to stay in them.  And so, the Regime is going to make it easy for people that cannot escape the hellholes on their own to escape \u2019em by moving them there under diversity law, anti-discrimination law, the Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing initiated. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_93425\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/pruitt.jpg\"\/><BR\/>So what they\u2019re gonna do is build projects, is the name for this low-income housing.  Think <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.pruitt-igoe.com\/\">Pruitt-Igoe<\/a>. Think Bed-Stuy. They\u2019re gonna build public housing in these affluent suburban areas to make sure that there is diversity.  This is what people who are aware of what Obama\u2019s doing are calling his war on the suburbs.  I realize some of you are thinking, &#8220;Come on, Rush.&#8221;  Folks, please use your common sense.  You know that practically everything Obama\u2019s doing is based on redistribution.  Redistribution is what?  Taking from those who have. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>And why?  Because of the belief they didn\u2019t get it fairly.  They screwed somebody, they inherited it or they had an unfair break somewhere along the line. They committed some great crime, whatever, it just isn\u2019t legitimate.  Nobody who has a lot of money really could get a lot of money with just pure honesty and talent and hard work. So Obama is here to level the playing field, and he\u2019s doing it with the redistribution of wealth. <\/p>\n<p>We got a hundred million Americans not working. They\u2019re all eating. They\u2019ve all got cell phones and they\u2019ve all got big screens and if they wanted to watch the World Cup, they could.  We\u2019re converting from full time to part time everywhere so that people have only one place to go for health insurance eventually, Obama, federal government.  It\u2019s all happening right in front of your face, right between your eyes you\u2019re being hit, and you can see it happening with both of your eyes. <\/p>\n<p>So to close the loop, we go back to the Southern crisis with these refugees, illegal alien immigrants, and the fact that they are being placed in states where states authorities including the governor are not being told.  They\u2019re being placed in the homes of people who are either being paid to take them or who are supposedly their family or what have you, but nobody knows how this is happening. <\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re in the processing centers for such a small amount of time that the medical screenings are not proper. They\u2019re not thorough. So we don\u2019t know what kind of infectious disease we\u2019re importing. We don\u2019t know as much as we should.  These kids are being flown out, bussed out, driven out, and they\u2019re ending up all over the country, and there\u2019s no end in sight.<\/p>\n<p>And you don\u2019t think they\u2019re being deposited in these buildings with broken windows on Eighth Avenue, do you?  They\u2019re certainly not being deposited there.  Make no mistake what this is.  There is a deep resentment held by many on the left for those in this country who are affluent, those who &#8220;made it&#8221; or what have you. It\u2019s cut-everybody-down-to-size time.  It\u2019s time to show the United States what life is really like for everybody else. <\/p>\n<p>I have a quote here from John Kerry.  He\u2019s &#8212; I don\u2019t know &#8212; mumbling around out there.  He actually said he gets really, really uncomfortable when he hears America talk about exceptionalism. It just really rubs him wrong, just makes him embarrassed and nervous.  He doesn\u2019t like when Americans talk that way.<\/p>\n<p>So who they are is an open book, right out in front of you.  All it takes is the courage to admit it. And so if you want to know why all of this is being permitted, I mean, there\u2019s any number of correct answers to it, but this is just the latest to throw into the pile.  <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  So 750 affordable housing projects are being forced on Westchester County, New York.  Westchester County, New York, is being forced to build 750 affordable housing projects even though the county is the fourth most diverse in the state. West Chester County rivals Manhattan in the number of black and Hispanic residents, but it doesn\u2019t matter. It\u2019s suburbia. That makes the difference here.  Westchester County is suburbia, and they\u2019re gonna be made to look like the city.<\/p>\n<p>Since they had the ability to leave, fine. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You left, so we\u2019re gonna take the city back to you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s essentially what is happening.  <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Barry in Sterling Heights, Michigan. I thank you for waiting.  Great to have you on the EIB Network.  Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Hi, Rush.  First-time caller.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_93429\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaChangeSHORT_large.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH:  Great to have you.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Hey, Rush, we were just watching the news. In Vassar, Michigan, which is up in the thumb, they\u2019re gonna be forcing 120 kids that\u2019ll be 12 to 17 years old from the border. They\u2019re gonna bring \u2019em all the way up to Michigan, and in a small rural town of Vassar, Michigan, where they won\u2019t really have but local objections. But they did get 300 people objecting to it.  They should really not being transferring these people around.  They should at the border and force the legal network down there to actually process the people or send \u2019em back. <\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Yep.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  But this organization out of Chicago, the Heartland Alliance, contracted with the Michigan children\u2019s social caregiver organization, this Wolverine Human Services, and that\u2019s how they\u2019re bringing \u2019em in.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Yep.  They\u2019re one of the many that responded to the ad Obama placed in a federal websites back in January seeking companies with transportation and logistics services to disperse these kids all over the country.  And, you know, you take kids from Guatemala, El Salvador, and put \u2019em up in the thumb of Michigan, as you say, they\u2019re gonna freeze.  Anyway, the state authorities are not being consulted.  They\u2019re just being (what\u2019s the word?) deposited, planted. They\u2019re just being dropped off.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Anyway, folks, what better way could you think of, if you wanted to implement this so-called Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing. If you have a war on the suburbs and if you resent the people that live there because they had the ability to move out of dilapidated cities and escape dilapidated cities. You\u2019re mad at that and you want to get even with them so you got a war on the suburbs.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re gonna do this by building public housing in the middle of these suburban communities.  What better way to give a boost to the Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Act and the remaking of American neighborhoods than to start injecting illegal immigrant populations into targeted cities and towns in the suburbs all across the country? <\/p>\n<p>It fits perfectly with Obama\u2019s community organizer roots.  You overwhelm the local government\u2019s social services with new claimants.  That requires higher taxes, higher fees to pay for schools, medical services, disability, unemployment, all that. Massive redistribution of wealth. You\u2019re importing kids. They can\u2019t provide for themselves. They don\u2019t have any skills yet. They\u2019re poor. They need to be totally supported by somebody. Obama to the rescue. <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=9005\"><img id=\"eZObject_93426\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ImmigrationStatueLibertyProtest.jpg\"\/><\/a>Now, here\u2019s the thing about this.  Here\u2019s what you do not know.  There are towns all over America standing up to this invasion, just like they did in Murrieta, California.  You\u2019re not hearing about it, however, and I am here to tell you why you\u2019re not hearing about it.  Westminster, Maryland is a town standing up to it, just like Murrieta, California, did.  Oracle, Arizona, is standing up to it. <\/p>\n<p>In Nebraska they\u2019re gonna stand up to it when they find out. The governor is fit to be tied.  Upper Michigan, same thing. There are towns all over America standing up to this.  There are protests happening, but they\u2019re not being covered.  The Drive-Bys are ignoring them and there\u2019s one reason why.  The Drive-Bys, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=9005\">do you remember in Murrieta, California<\/a>, busloads of children, illegals, dumped in Murrieta. The people who lived in Murrieta met those buses with long lines and shouts and turned those buses away.  They had meetings with the mayor and the city council and they were committed to not accepting these busloads of illegals in Murrieta, and they turned \u2019em away. <\/p>\n<p>Now, the Drive-Bys, I am convinced, I\u2019m so sure of this, I think the Drive-Bys didn\u2019t get the reaction from their coverage of Murrieta that they thought they were gonna get.  You know what they thought they were gonna get?  I guarantee you, when they put pictures of the protesters in Murrieta all over national TV, what they expected was a bunch of other people all over the country calling the people of Murrieta racists and bigots and all of these other insults.<\/p>\n<p>They were thinking that by showing the people of Murrieta refusing to accept these poor, innocent little children, that the people of this country would be outraged at the selfishness of people in Murrieta, California.  But that didn\u2019t happen, did it?  They thought, the Drive-Bys thought their news audiences would be outraged at the racist and hard-heartedness of the protesters, but that didn\u2019t happen.  The viewing audiences sided with the people of Murietta, California. So there won\u2019t be any more coverage of people in these towns where the illegal children are being dumped protesting.  No more.  You won\u2019t see it because the Drive-Bys didn\u2019t get attraction they wanted. <\/p>\n<p>But rest assured, the protests continue to happen.  You know, I\u2019m wondering at what point people are gonna figure this out.  It\u2019s gonna be slow, town by town, people are gonna figure out what\u2019s happening to them.  We\u2019ve been trying to warn people all over this country for five and a half years of what is ahead and what\u2019s in store for everybody because of this Regime.  And, course, we\u2019ve been thought of as various names and this kind of thing.  But the reality is gonna hit them at some point.  But it\u2019s gonna be too late, I fear.  By the time they figure out what\u2019s going on, that there\u2019s something to be worried about, the mechanisms for stopping it will have been exhausted.  At any rate, that\u2019s that.  <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Stephanie, Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, you\u2019re next.  It\u2019s great to have you.  Hi.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Hi, Rush.  Thanks for taking my call.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  You bet.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I just wanted to share my experiences with you.  Recently our neighborhood and the neighborhood next to us tried unsuccessfully to fight against the development of a subsidized housing project that\u2019s basically going to be put in our backyard.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  That would be called low-income housing, correct?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yes.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Affordable.  Sorry, affordable.  Affordable.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Affordable, yes.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Affordable. Yes.  Yes.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  The kicker is they\u2019re gonna build 35 two- to three-story housing units, a community building, and 76 parking lots in what now is currently a parking lot used by a car dealer on a very busy road, very dangerous for the new residents that will be going into this neighborhood.  They estimate 75 to a hundred children will potentially live there, and there\u2019s a lot of things I think &#8212;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_93438\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaClassWarfare3_Jan2014PIX.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH:  Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait just a minute. Did you say 35 buildings?<\/line><\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Thirty-five two- to three-story housing units.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Housing units, okay.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  A community building and 76 parking lots.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  So its own self-contained little project?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Right.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  On a parking lot of a car dealership. Is the car dealer being moved or closed down?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  No.  They just sold this parking lot.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  All right. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: It was kind of interesting how it all turned out.  One of our commissioners happened to be going door-to-door campaigning, and my mom thanked him and asked about &#8212; we were trying to fight &#8212; they just recently moved a major road, which kind of opened our street and made it into a throughway which used to be a very quiet neighborhood.  So we\u2019ve definitely had some changes due to building and everything getting larger.  He then shared that I should look into it because something big was coming.  And we happened to, and if we didn\u2019t do that, if that door-to-door information wasn\u2019t shared, we wouldn\u2019t have known anything about this, and this would have been passed without anyone knowing about it, because we don\u2019t always check our board website, our township board website.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Right, by design. You weren\u2019t supposed to know about it.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Right.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Nobody checks the board website. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Right.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Nobody watches the board\u2019s public access TV show. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Right.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Nobody watches that stuff, so you weren\u2019t supposed to find out.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  But I think a lot of people would be interested in knowing the one thing about, when a place like this comes in &#8212; now, they\u2019re gonna have the 35 low-income housing, but 10 of them are gonna be Section 8, and six of them will be for mentally ill, four will be for physically ill.  We did fight and we actually got it delayed.  They had expected to be building it already, and it has not started yet, so we\u2019ve delayed it for a year, which we think is great.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Now, I need to ask you a question playing devil\u2019s advocate \u2019cause I know there are a lot of leftists in this audience who will not admit they\u2019re there, but I know they\u2019re there, and they\u2019re probably shouting at their radio, &#8220;Well, what\u2019s wrong with people like that moving into your neighborhood?  Who do you think you are?  Why is it bad?  Why is it bad for people like that to move into your neighborhood?  What are you afraid of?  Why don\u2019t you like those people, huh?  Are you a racist?  Are you a bigot?  Are you sexist?  Do you not like the retarded?  What don\u2019t you like about it?&#8221;  That\u2019s what they want to know.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  And I can tell you, as a stay-at-home mom, I\u2019ve been at home for eight years raising my two children, and I have made a lot of sacrifices myself. And I\u2019m actually one that I don\u2019t have a fancy phone. I don\u2019t have text messaging, either, just because I want to save money.  We\u2019ve lived with the basics, and my husband has two jobs. And for these people to be able to come in, and when you look at the average salary that they\u2019re accepting, from $27,000 to 50,000, and then all the units are gonna have Energy Star labels. You know, the Energy Star rated refrigerators, washers, dryers, dishwashers.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Right.  I know the drill. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_93439\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushLiberalismVsAmericanism4.jpg\"\/><BR\/>CALLER:  Basically my theory is that you should work hard, and if you don\u2019t have it, then you should continue working for it.  I understand everybody needs a break from time to time, but I don\u2019t think that you need to be put in a spot where other people will then have to pay for you to do that.  Our schools that they\u2019re gonna be going into, they\u2019re already maxed out. They\u2019re actually now gonna have to expand our school, and they\u2019re knocking our middle school down. They\u2019re gonna have to build a new one.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Now, Stephanie, let me interrupt you only because of the constraints of time. I\u2019m sure you know this is by design.  This is what the noted author, Stanley Kurtz, has written a book about, this that\u2019s happening to you in Mechanicsburg. He calls it Obama\u2019s war on the suburbs, and it is exactly your attitude that Obama would cite as the justification.  You say you worked hard?  Well, you didn\u2019t.  You just got lucky, and maybe your husband does work two jobs, but at least he\u2019s got the freedom to do it. But you\u2019re no different than these other people coming in and you\u2019re no better, and it\u2019s time you learned that, Stephanie. <\/p>\n<p>This is an all-out assault on all the values that you hold dear.  I could ask you another question the left would, &#8220;Well, when did you leave the city to get rid of these people, to escape these kind of people that you don\u2019t like, because that\u2019s only fair that Obama would put them back where you are.&#8221;  Did we lose her?  Are you still there?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I am here.  The other thing they do not have to do is they do not have to pay real estate taxes in full like we do.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, of course not.  They\u2019re disadvantaged.  Of course not.  Why should they?  They\u2019ve been given the excrement sandwich their whole life, and it\u2019s time you made it up to \u2019em, because their plight is because of you and people like you.  So learn it, love it, live it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Ladies and gentlemen, as an adjunct, or a continuation of the discussion just now on the polling data, the Washington Post\/ABC News poll showing how bad it is for the Republicans, the way they\u2019re handling the immigration crisis on the Southern border.
