RUSH: This is CNN’s Election Center last night. Campbell Brown and Jessica Yellin, two babes have an arousal gap, Obamagasm talking about this guy.
YELLIN: Campbell, the audience here clearly thought he can do anything or anything he does is in his reach. He took off his jacket, and let’s take a look what happened when he did that for a moment. (cheers and applause) Just for taking off his jacket. I wonder what would have happened if he’d loosened his tie. Campbell?
BROWN: And there are those who say he has a women problem, huh?
RUSH: So they’re going bonkers, even the female reporters. No, no, no even pretense of objectivity. Let’s listen to Maya Angelou, who did the poem at Bill Clinton’s inauguration in 1993, The River, the Rock, and the Tree. Remember that? Cookie, see if you can find that. I mean I know we have it in our archives. I watched this, I watched Maya Angelou deliver the poem at the inauguration, The River, the Rock, the Tree, and Clinton just got that W. C. Fields total grin on his face, (doing Clinton impression) ‘This is so great, I just love that.’ It was gobbledygook. Anyway, Larry King said to Maya Angelou, ‘You wrote a poem in praise of Hillary that starts: ‘You may write me down in history with your bitter, twisted lies, you may tread me in the very dirt, but still like dust, I’ll rise.”
RUSH: Wow. Just wow.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: We have one minute here of Maya Angelo’s poem A River, A Rock, A Tree from the Clinton inauguration. The whole poem ran over six minutes so we just have one minute of this, but this is enough, and it actually isn’t gobbledygook. Not just gobbledygook, it’s… Here. Here, listen to this. I’m going to have to translate this for you and I’ll be happily able to do it.
RUSH: Now, this went on for another five minutes, Maya Angelou and the inaugural poem for Bill Clinton in 1993. Let’s go back to the top of this. (doing Maya Angelou impression) ‘A rock, a river, a tree hosts to species long since departed, marked the mastodon. The dinosaur, who left dry tokens of their sojourn here.’ Now, what is a ‘dry token’? What is a dinosaur ‘dry token’? Exactly right, Mr. Snerdley. This is a poem about dinosaur excrement. This is a poem about dinosaur dung ‘who left dry tokens of their sojourn here on our planet floor.’ So here’s the president of the United States, who’s been inaugurated, and he’s getting a poem here about dinosaur dung read in his honor by Maya Angelou. And of course ‘their sojourn here on our planet floor, any broad alarm of their hastening doom is lost in the gloom of dust and ages, but today the rock cries out to us clearly, forcefully: come, you may stand upon my back and face your distant destiny.’ The mastodon is a dinosaur elephant, and that’s what marked the mastodon, the dinosaur. So it’s mastodon dinosaur dung. If you go through the whole thing, it actually is a very, very partisan poem with some vulgarity to it — and of course it appealed to Clinton’s ego because this was a poem for him about what he faced, and we’re no different than dinosaur dung, but Bill Clinton’s gotta go stand on the rocks out there and take us all on his back, but he can’t hide. He can’t be in the shadows. He’s gotta be on the back and gotta be everybody’s back — and of course it almost happened, but he ended up sitting down in the Oval Office rather than laying down.
