“Terrorists are building one hell of a stronghold in the Middle East, and are we playing the role of enabler, willingly or unwillingly? Very serious questions.”
“You can’t trust Moammar Khadafy, who can you trust? If ever a guy had an honest face, it’s Moammar.”
“I’ve noticed that more and more Associated Press stories are unbylined. Have you noticed this, Snerdley? Have you wondered why? Well, no. Gosh, I love Snerdley. He thinks that everything that happens is because of me one way or the other, that my influence is so complete.”
“I can’t relate to somebody who makes a $100,000 a year paying me $200,000. I couldn’t do it. I couldn’t take it. My guilt would not allow it.”
“What could possibly be the reason for bending over backwards to let every other nation in our region get as much oil as they can while we put moratoriums on domestic companies and production? Maybe Obama has a chip on his shoulder about this country.”
“This is not about what the teachers are willing to take from the taxpayers in terms of salary and benefits — it’s about what the taxpayers are able to pay.”
“I know this is probably not possible, but I would like somehow to have a calculation on how many people in this country actually work for a living rather than siphon for a living.”
“I do have tinnitus in my right ear, which, in my case, means I constantly hear Gregorian chants in my right ear. I always think I’m in touch with God.”
“I’m serious. They should ask: ‘Mr. Obama, you were not in favor of regime change in Iraq, but you have said Mubarak has to go, and you now think Khadafy has to go. Was Saddam not as bad as Khadafy?'”
“So we’re borrowing $5 billion a day just to service the debt, and the House wants kudos for a continuing resolution that cuts $6 billion in three weeks. It doesn’t add up.”

“The hell you say! Now all of a sudden it’s not a democracy movement in Egypt; it’s a Muslim Brotherhood takeover. How in the world did this happen? Folks, let’s face it: You and I are the smartest people in the room — we knew to be cautious.”
“This election should be all about Obama because, frankly, I would vote for Elmer Fudd before I would vote for Obama. I would vote for whoever the Republicans nominate.”
“So the Google guy in Egypt is going to be given a JFK Profile in Courage Award from Caroline Kennedy. That’s the same award they gave John Murtha. These are sick people.”
“The primary qualification for the NATO secretary general is a foreign accent so that he doesn’t sound American. That way, they can create the illusion that NATO is not America, and this Anders Fogh Rasmussen guy really fits the bill.”
“You think Obama cares about whether we can afford anything? If he cared about whether we could afford anything, we wouldn’t have Obamacare!”
“Drudge has a picture up of Muslims beating and stomping on an effigy of Obama in protest. So how’s that NASA Muslim outreach working out for the regime?”
“My theory is that within the Democrat Party outside this administration there is some genuine ‘uh-oh’ going on. Well, this is the most lackadaisical, the most incoherent, the most inexplicable American administration anybody can ever remember.”
“A liberal president is one thing, but Obama’s a special variety. I’m serious.”
“Jesse Jackson says the government shutdown would be a return to the Civil War. If today’s troops still engage in battle — if they go to war and execute the orders — but are not paid by their commander-in-chief, are they his slaves? It sure sounds like Obama has more in common with President Jefferson Davis than he does with President Lincoln.”
“So Obama has no problems ordering a moratorium on drilling for oil, but he will not support a moratorium on drilling for babies. Okay then.”

“This morning Dingy Harry, on the floor of the Senate, talked about the health risks to his wife and daughters and nine granddaughters if he agrees to the Republican cuts. That’s maybe one of the dumbest statements he’s ever made — and he has a tough competition.”
“No, I don’t think Obama is the cat in Ernst Stavro Blofeld’s lap. He’s got a little bit more stature than that, but I understand the comparison.”
“I don’t want to JIP Harry Reid. He is the most boring person in the world to listen to.”
“Won’t it be a little disappointing if they don’t shutdown the government? I mean, I’m hoping they do. Don’t you? Wouldn’t it be just and right if the government experiences a little bit of this recession like the private sector has?”
“We need to ask if Obama is considered an essential or nonessential employee of the federal government. I know a lot of you probably offended — ‘don’t talk about the president that way, Rush’ — but how essential can he be, taking a vacation every two weeks?”
“What kind of birth control is allowed under Sharia law? Not even ‘I have a headache’ works under Sharia law, folks.”
“We’re beginning our third decade of the Cure-A-Thon, and every year you have come through again and again. You have surpassed the previous year with increased generosity. We can’t thank you enough.”

“Every month I watch the full moon rise over the ocean. You talk about appreciating something… to see it shimmering off the ocean is appointment viewing for me. I’ve even tried to perfect taking pictures of it, but I’m not good enough at photography.”
“I’m confident in saying there has never been a program where the host and the audience have such a familial-type bond as this one. It’s just wonderful, it absolutely is.”

“Drudge just put it up there: Gallup is out with their latest poll number, and it is the lowest approval number Obama’s ever had in Gallup. A whopping 41%. For a messiah.”
“With Obama, we’re not talking about lackadaisical, haphazard policy things that might trouble us for a while. We’re talking about things that, if they are not reversed, are going to totally alter the structure of this country in a way that will limit the chances for prosperity for people’s children and grandchildren. This is very serious.”
“To you five- and ten-dollar donors who sent your apologies in, don’t be silly. We love it. We love all of you.”
“We have a president who is reviled. In places where the people who make this country work live, there’s no more love, there’s no more home hope, there’s no more investment in change.”
“The ChiComs are having to incorporate capitalism into their culture in order to survive. We just happen to be going the other way because we have a neophyte who was educated, mentored, and raised by communist socialists — that’s his experience, that’s who he is.”
“I get notes from people: ‘How do you put up with the stupidity of some of the people who call you?’ That’s not the question. Those are educational opportunities. The real question for me is: How do I politely put up with the stupidity that is Obama?”
“Earth Day is a perfect example of liberalism: It started out as something nice and fuzzy and innocent — well, not to me. I knew what it was from the get-go.”

“Fred, I don’t know who has educated you, but you ought to file suit, because you have been lied to. You have felt yourself a prisoner of the freest system ever devised by man for economic prosperity, and I am sadly disappointed in you, sir.”
“I would much rather see money in the hands of people than in the hands of politicians. That’s what it really boils down to.”
“Who should get the Bin Laden reward money? How about George W. Bush, or Dick Cheney? How about the CIA interrogators being investigated by Eric Holder?”
“Have you noticed, by the way, that nobody is demanding any proof that Obama killed the job market and the economy? Now, they’re just demanding proof that he killed Osama.”

“Did you see that Obama is on his way to Fort Campbell, Kentucky? Yeah, he wants to give the SEAL team an opportunity to thank him for ordering them into action.”
“I don’t think the reward money for Bin Laden was intended for military people whose job it was to find the guy. I think the reward was for traitors, members of Al-Qaeda, somebody like that who would help us find him. You know, like Michael Moore or somebody on the street.”
“It’s so rare and so unique when I’m wrong that people can’t wait to point it out.”
“We are the majority in this country — Tea Party conservatism — particularly if you look at the way people live their lives. We are categorized each and every day as the fringe, but we are not. We are the mainstream.”
“I live Literalville; small population, small town. Logic and common sense are the prominent characteristics of Literalville. And if I have Ruth Marcus here writing about how she wants Mitch Daniels to run for president, then something tells me that she believes that Mitch Daniels would pose not that big a challenge.”
“I have never once said, ‘What do I need to do to attract women?’ I do that naturally.”
“It would probably be a death knell for a politician to say, ‘Hey, vote for me, I finally got the liberals in Massachusetts to hate government-run health care,’ but you never know.”
