Glad you called.  You\u2019re up next.  Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Hello, Mr. Limbaugh, quite a treat.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well.  Well.  Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I was just thinking and wondering about this terminology that you used for the rest of the world watching what President Obama does, or, as you affectionately call him, Barack Hussein Obama, just to, you know, reinforce that imaginary Muslim thing &#8212;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_88134\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaSchool.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH:  No, that\u2019s not me.  I mean, little kids were singing songs to President Obama: &#8220;Barack Hussein Obama!  Mmm!  Mmm!  Mmm!&#8221;  Don\u2019t you remember?<\/line><\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Well, I think it\u2019s you, too.  I think maybe you do it for a different reason.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  When was the last time I mentioned Hussein? <\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah, you just did <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=9977\">about five minutes<\/a> ago.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  It is his name.  Why is it my problem what his name is?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Well, because, I mean, when they used to call Dan Quayle &#8220;Danforth&#8221; Quayle, the conservatives were saying that they were making fun of him, that they were &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  This is a dangerous thing you\u2019re doing.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  &#8212; kind of an uppity rich guy, Danforth &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  You\u2019re engaging in projection.  You are assuming to know what I\u2019m thinking when I pronounce Barack Hussein Obama.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Hussein.  Well, like I say, it seems to me, anyway, that you\u2019re just, you know, feeding into this imaginary thing that some conservatives out there &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I\u2019m not even thinking about it.  It\u2019s all in your mind.  This is what\u2019s fascinating. It\u2019s in your mind that he\u2019s a Muslim, not mine.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  No, I don\u2019t think he\u2019s a Muslim.  I think you\u2019re putting it out there every time you say that, Barack Hussein Obama.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Is his middle name not Hussein?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Say it again, sir?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Is his middle name not Hussein?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah, it is.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"585\" height=\"315\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9Ty7WU872Lk\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Okay, does he still have a brother living in a hut?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I don\u2019t know. (laughing)<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  He does.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I don\u2019t know.  What\u2019s your middle name?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Hudson.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I don\u2019t call you Rush George Limbaugh.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  No.  But if you wanted to pronounce my name, it would be Rush Hudson Limbaugh III.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Ooh, Hudson, very nice.  But I just think that, you know, I have kind of a conservative coworker, and we talk politics every so often.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  You know one?  You actually know a conservative?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yes, I do.  I mean, I have conservative friends.  That\u2019s not my measuring stick for whether a person is a fine person or a good neighbor or anything like that.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  What is wrong with Hussein as a name, by the way? <\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Well, like I say, the way I believe you\u2019re using it is to imply that the president is this closet Muslim.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  No.  Even if I thought that, I wouldn\u2019t go there.  My point with this picture, Linda, was to point out media hypocrisy.  I mean, Bush reads to kids, all presidents do. Bush did it on 9\/11 and the media tagged him immediately as an idiot, deer-in-the-headlight eyes, doesn\u2019t know what he\u2019s doing, vacant, stupid, idiotic cowboy.  And here\u2019s Obama reading to the kids while Ukraine\u2019s violating all kinds of agreements Obama signed, and not a ripple from the Drive-Bys.  That\u2019s all I was pointing out with that.  And as far as the name &#8220;Hussein&#8221; is concerned, I don\u2019t know what I can do.  I\u2019ll ask him to change it.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  McCain fired Bill Cunningham. He was introducing him at rallies, Cunningham announced Barack Hussein Obama.  (imitating McCain) &#8220;I\u2019m not gonna have that kind of bigotry in my campaign.  He\u2019s gone.  Get rid of him.  Not gonna have that.&#8221;  It was absurd, folks.  It\u2019s his name.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Linda in Lake City, Michigan. Glad you called.
