A woman in the UK has married her dog.  I told you.  I told you it was gonna happen.  A woman marries her dog and confesses: &#8220;I\u00c2\u2019m totally her b-i-itch.&#8221;  I told you, ladies and gentlemen, this was going to happen. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: A British woman, &#8220;Amanda Rodgers, 47, and her dog\/wife Sheba married in a beautiful ceremony attended by 200 guests in Croatia.&#8221; Amanda Rodgers &#8220;wife&#8221; is a four-year-old Jack Russell Terrier. I have the picture right here. It\u2019s in the New York Daily News today.  Yeah, people laughed.  You know, once we start changing the definition of marriage, where does it stop?<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_88329\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushSeeIToldYouSo585.jpg\"\/><BR\/>It doesn\u2019t just stop at a man and a woman or two women or two men. It\u2019s wide open at that point, when it\u2019s based on who you love, when it\u2019s based on (sobbing), &#8220;Who are we to stand in the way when people love one another? You can\u2019t do that, Mr. Limbaugh! If they love, we love.&#8221; So there you have it.  I just, &#8220;Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah.&#8221;  <\/line><\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: In the meantime, Rick in Cleveland, great to have you on the EIB Network, sir.  Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Happy conservative Tuesday from a father of four kids under eight years old. (laughing)<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Wait a minute.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yes, sir.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Did you say father of eight?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Four kids under eight years old.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Oh, man.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yes.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Wow.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah.  I am ferociously protecting them so that they have moral clarity for the future, and driving into school today &#8212; I\u2019m driving my eight-year-old boy, seven-year-old girl, six-year-old girl, and four-year-old boy &#8212; they heard on the radio of a girl marrying her dog.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I wonder where they heard that.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  My daughter said, &#8220;Daddy, are you allowed to do that? We did not learn that in school.&#8221;  I said, &#8220;Well, Lauren, I don\u2019t know.&#8221;  And then Andrew, my eight-year-old boy, says, &#8220;Well, if she can marry a dog, I want to marry your race car, because I love it.&#8221;  That got me thinking.  If a boy married a car, instead of health insurance, it would need car insurance, so you could have your maintenance paid for.  How am I supposed to provide a safe future and teach right and wrong when all of this is happening and it seems to be okay?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Now, your daughter, you said, wanted to marry the dog?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  She loves our Rottweiler.  They\u2019re the same age, and she absolutely loves it, so &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  She wasn\u2019t&#8230;? She was serious?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yes.  She said, &#8220;If love is marriage, I love a Rottweiler.  If that girl can do it, why can\u2019t I?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I would love to be in your house when you tell her that people don\u2019t marry animals.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Well, you know what?  I\u2019m telling her&#8230; Well, they learn that from school.  You know, I pay them money to go to Catholic school, and we fight to protect them and teach right and wrong, and then I had to look up to the Internet to make sure that a girl really did marry a dog, and it\u2019s all over the place. (laughing)  But I\u2019m trying to teach them right and wrong. You know, in this day and age of people, it\u2019s only gonna be a matter of time when people can marry anything they want, if that\u2019s the way we\u2019re going.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, be very careful. Be very careful when you say that, Rick, because you could attract attention you don\u2019t want.  It was actually Justice Scalia after a specific case, a George sodomy case, who wrote in his opinion that this opens the doors. He predicted gay marriage and other arrangements. He said, &#8220;Once we&#8230;&#8221; These are my words here; he didn\u2019t write this way.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Once we blow the definition of marriage, once we say that it is not a union a man and a woman, then there\u2019s no end to what it can be,&#8221; and that was my point.  There\u2019s a woman in Croatia who has married her dog.  There was a real ceremony.  But I think you have a chance with your daughter.  You can head this one off at the pass.  Just simply tell her she\u2019s not the Rottweiler\u2019s type.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: I told you this was gonna happen. A woman in the UK has married her dog.
