With a Democrat in the Oval Office, Five Dollars a Gallon is No Big Deal

Rush Limbaugh exposes the hypocrisy of the Main Stream Media. Under Bush, the media went on a rampage with the $4.00/gallon of gasoline, but under Obama, it is denyingly quiet. It is abundantly clear that Obama is forcing us to change our ways. The president wants us to get rid of our big SUVs and trucks. Obama wants us to buy expensive hybrids, smaller economical cars (deathtraps), use more mass transit, and buy defective electric cars. Well, the government cannot tell the American public or force us to buy something that we don't want.

Transcript from Rush Limbaugh Show

RUSH: It is so predictable. There's MSNBC during their one-year retrospective impact of the Gulf oil spill. And you know what the purpose is of this particular episode being anchored by Andrea Mitchell is. The purpose here is to make sure we don't drill for oil ever again. It's to support Obama and the regime 'cause, man, look what almost happened. Do you realize every prediction of doom and disaster from that oil spill ended up being totally wrong, as wrong as you could be if you wanted to be a hundred percent wrong, and yet here they are, their one year retrospective with the whole focal point being, "Boy, it was a disaster, dangerous, could have been really disastrous. We better never drill for oil again." Why do this? What's the big deal about this anniversary? And to whom is it an anniversary, aside from the media? Zilch, nobody.

I want to show you something on the Dittocam. I just turned it off while I zoomed tight. We did a little Google search here. In the previous hour of the program I made reference to the fact that, where are all the stories on the gasoline price going up? Five bucks a gallon. If you heard the riff, you know, I don't need to repeat it, basically the point of it was that compared to 2005, the last time gasoline prices spiked big time, there's no coverage of it. So, yeah, while the price is exceeding four bucks in many places, five bucks in Washington, there's not this accompanying panic. No. What are we getting? A one-year look-back at the oil spill. So the media is doing everything it can to suppress any negative economic impact to Obama, virtually no coverage of the rising gasoline price.

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is a search, gasoline prices, Google trends. Here it is. That big spike that you see on the left is 2005 when the price was approaching four bucks a gallon and the oil price was around $150. That's been the way they've been covering gasoline prices since. This year, no coverage. See the little spike there. It just proves the point that I was making an hour ago, and that is that there's no coverage on this. I mean people are sending me notes, "Gasoline prices are skyrocketing. People are really feeling the pain." Are they? Do they know it? They're feeling it but do they think anybody else is feeling it? There's no news on it and there's certainly no negative news about it. Whatever news about the gas price going up tends to be, "Well, you know, there's really some good news about this. Less dependence on foreign oil. Less travel. Less accidents. Fewer lives lost." I mean, they're actually doing stories on the benefits of rising gasoline prices. Something you would never see, of course, if a Republican were in the Oval Office.

The Biggest Loser of the Budget Deal is the Tea Party

Rush Limbaugh is right. The media hates the GOP. Ever since the budget passed, the media is praising and acknowledging that John Boehner got the upper hand of the deal. The loser of this fight isn't Obama, but the Tea Party. It is obvious that the media is being condescending that the Tea Party didn't get what they wanted. The media is in glee. But since the media can't target a particular member of the Tea Party, anything to belittle them and make them insignificant is a success. That is the only limitation the media, Liberals, and Rhinos could muster. The Tea Party is not a true party. It is a grassroots made-up of concern citizens of every political faction. In reality, 38 billion is peanuts compared to the trillions in deficits. 2012 will be here very soon. The GOP establishment better watch out for more backlash from the Tea Party community. In fact, Rush got the GOP establishment on his radar.

Media Declares Boehner Win to Neuter the Tea Party base

RUSH: Last campaign, Republicans promised $100 billion in cuts if they were elected to run Congress. Then the $100 billion became $61 billion -- and, by the way, the $100 billion, if we are all honest... In fact, when that $100 billion was first announced during the campaign we all kind of scratched our heads and said, "What? Just a $100 billion? That's it, just a hundred billion? That was the pledge?" But regardless, let's stick to the subject for just a second. That was the pledge: $100 billion, then it became $61 billion prorated, and it ends up $38.5 billion. What changed? The answer is very simple.

What "changed" is the DC ruling class uniting in its effort to neuter the Tea Party. That's what changed -- and I remember we spoke about it on several occasions on this program. I warned you people many times: "The ruling class of Washington doesn't -- including the Republican element of the ruling class -- doesn't like the Tea Party, doesn't like something they can't control." The Tea Party doesn't have a leader. It's genuine grassroots. It consists of people who have never prior been active in politics, but they're so upset, they're so alarmed and they're so concerned, they are now. You ever stopped to think of this?

Intellectually, you and I know that the Democrat Party and the mainstream media hate John Boehner just as they would hate any Republican leader. They hated Reagan. It's nothing personal with Boehner. They just hate him -- and now, all of a sudden, they're praising Boehner to the hilt. Now, all of a sudden -- and you've heard it all weekend long -- Boehner is the big winner? It just doesn't connect intellectually. You know it and I know it. You may not have been able to put your finger on it at first, but you knew it didn't sound right. You knew it didn't make sense using intelligence guided by experience.

These guys don't like Boehner. Now $38.5 billion dollars is a big win? He snookered Obama? Wait a minute here. This doesn't add up. Unless -- unless -- this is seen as Boehner's victory over, not Obama, but the Tea Party -- and isn't it the case that the Democrats and the RINOs look at $38.5 billion as a victory over the Tea Party? Remember, Democrats, the media, liberals hate us. They fear us more than they fear Al-Qaeda. They think we are the biggest enemy they face. Anything that marginalizes us, they celebrate. If they think Boehner has marginalized the Tea Party -- if they think the Tea Party has been neutered within the Republican caucus -- then, yeah, it makes all the sense in the world to praise Boehner.

More senior citizens will die from Obamacare than from any other government action

Democrats sacred cow is Medicare and Social Security because it is the means to control senior citizens. Even though both entitlement programs are going bankrupt, Democrats will do anything to preserve it to protect the senior vote. Even though a special committee designed by Obama recommended to cut benefits and increase the retirement age to keep both entitlement programs solvent, Democrats are putting all the blame on the GOP for entertaining the thought in tinkering with Social Security and Medicare. But let us be honest, Social Security and Medicare aren't the real issue for seniors. It is the death panels and rationed care with Obamacare that really scares seniors. Rush is correct to say that senior citizens will die from Obamacare than from any other government action in this country.


Transcript from the Rush Limbaugh Show relating to the the DNC Chairman Debbie Schultz reaction to Paul Ryan's budget

SCHULTZ: We see a clear attempt for the government to back out of its commitment to seniors. As a result, many seniors in America will be forced into poverty, and worse, some seniors will end up dying because they are forced to put off getting that pain checked out due to huge out-of-pocket costs that will skyrocket for them. This Republican path to poverty is just wrong.

RUSH: Seniors will end up dying. The streets, ladies and gentlemen, will be littered with the corpses of seasoned citizens. This is like the good old days. This is exactly what they used to say. When did I make my GOPAC speech, 1994, 1995? This is hilarious. Back in 1994 the Republicans, of course, took over the House and the budget battle of 1995 is going on, the Democrats were saying the basic same stuff, extremist, gonna kill the elderly, gonna leave 'em dead to die on the streets, and I went to speak to GOPAC, and I opened up, said, "I want to welcome all of my fellow extremists as we sit here and plot the death of American seasoned citizens. And I just want to let you people know, I am taking it seriously. I went out and I bought my mother a brand-new can opener so she'll have no problem opening the dog food." Pat Schroeder goes to the floor of the House and makes a big speech suggesting that this is who they are, this is the Big Kahuna, the Big Kahuna Rush Limbaugh admits that he's gonna get his mother a can opener so she can easily eat the dog food. And then somebody said, "You know, that was a joke." She was profoundly embarrassed. They're just recycling it now.

Let me tell you something. Politico, are you listening? (laughing) More senior citizens will die from Obamacare than from any other government action in this country. More senior citizens will die due to health rationing of Obamacare than anything else that government does in its history, outside, of course, of the Civil War. It is Barack Obama himself conducting an ABC town hall way back, two years ago. Woman shows up and raises her hand, (paraphrasing) "Mr. Obama, I got a question." He says, "You may ask it." "My mother is 98 years old, needs a pacemaker. Her will to live is strong. She's perfectly fine except for the pacemaker. Will you permit --" you know, I'm cringing at that. Here we got a citizen asking the president, "Will you permit my mother to have a pacemaker?" and you know what Obama said? "Well, I don't think we can calculate spirit or will to live. Just give her a pill." So the leader of the regime says, "Give a pill, let 'em die."

There will be health rationing. Senior citizens, Paul Ryan is trying to save them. Paul Ryan is giving them an option to either stay in Medicare or join a pool in the private sector, whichever they can best afford, whatever they want to choose. It's called freedom of choice for their health care. It does not mandate they go before Obamacare death panels. And yet here's Debbie Wasserman Schultz: Republicans are gonna leave senior citizens as corpses in the streets. Some seniors will end up dying because they're forced to put off getting that pain checked out. So seniors are gonna sit around, they're gonna suffer pain, but they're not gonna be able to go to the doctor to get the pain checked out, and the pain's gonna be deadly, bam. There are corpses in the street. What's going to happen with Obamacare, they feel the pain, they go to the doctor, the doctor consults the regime, the regime says, "How old is this woman? Well, screw it, we're not gonna invest in making her well. She's only got five years to live anyway, so to hell with it. Give her a pill." That's what Debbie Wasserman Schultz is for. Here's a continuation of her reaction to Paul Ryan.

SCHULTZ: No longer would Medicare be a guarantee of health insurance coverage. Instead, Medicare would become little more than a discount card. This plan would literally be a death trap for some seniors.

RUSH: All right, so we're back at it, just recycling the whole thing. Republicans and their budget: a death trap for senior citizens. A death trap. (laughing) I'm sorry. I can't avoid laughing at this. Now, I know some of you hear this stuff and you just get livid and you get angry. I used to, too. And some days I still do. You see, I can't imagine people believing this. I know some people are going to. But at some point this stuff's all gonna catch up with them. You can't keep going back to the well. If the dead are gonna be in the streets, they better show up at some point. You're gonna say that a policy is gonna lead to senior citizen corpses in the streets, there had better be some, otherwise you have no credibility.

Trump Providing Blueprint for Victory, Go at After Obama

Rush: Trump Providing Blueprint for Victory; Relentlessly Go at Obama

Wisconsin GOP Give Democrats Taste of their own Medicine with Election

Democrats are upset that the Associated Press declared Democrat Kloppenburg the winner for the Wisconsin Supreme Court and finding out later the Associated Press had to rescind the announcement. Ironically, Democrats are crying foul and blaming Republicans in stealing the election. There was an error, but there is a chance that the GOP incumbent David Prosser may win the election after all. This is karma for the GOP. Democrats stole the senatorial election for Al Franklin in Minnesota. Now, we can all it even.

Brief Excerpt from Rush Limbaugh Website

RUSH: In Wisconsin, the news media and the rest of the Democratic Party are all up in arms over the Wisconsin Supreme Court election. It turns out the initial numbers, which were reported by AP, as a courtesy, were not correct. Did you hear about this, Snerdley? It turns out that the Republican Justice David Prosser is actually more than 7800 votes ahead, which, of course, has infuriated the media. They thought they had this thing safely stolen, and then this clerk in Waukesha County forgot to count 14,000 votes. I read this and I said, "It's about time we got in this game." Normally it's the Democrats that are uncovering votes that they missed. And look at how the Democrats in the media are running around acting like stuck pigs. And they want an investigation of this woman. The problem is that this Republican clerk had a Democrat take a look everything she was doing all along the line and the Democrat said, "I'm sorry, but everything's legal here. Everything's aboveboard." That woman's chances for advancement in the Democrat Party are now kaput, (raspberry), bye-bye. But she said everything the Republican clerk did was legal.

There are some people upset that this incompetence on the part of the Republican clerk doesn't actually help, that it creates some of the controversy. I understand that. We could deal with that perhaps later in the program. But still, when I saw this, I have to tell you, all right! Just yesterday I gave a big monologue in how we're gonna have to learn to play the game the way they do, and, voila! Voila, we find 14,000 votes -- and ours are legitimate. So Justice Prosser way ahead by more than 7800 votes, the media going after this poor county clerk who didn't include one city's counts in what was sent to the AP. Now, never mind that there is no law saying that the AP should be told about the preliminary vote counts at all. They just do this as a favor to AP. Never mind that the AP should have noticed that the city's numbers were far too low. There was something about this that should have raised a red flag. But the bottom line here is the AP, the Democrats are furious that their candidate, Kloppenburg -- you know, I normally don't comment on people's names, but Kloppenburg, doesn't it sound like something you'd step in? Well, she did. She did step in it with a big victory speech out there and -- (interruption) oh, yeah. I mean they even got mock Harry Truman headlines, graphics on the newspapers.

Anyway, AP, Democrats furious that their candidate, Kloppenburg, they declared her the winner when she was a whopping 204 votes ahead, by the way, an insurmountable lead, of course, when you're the Democrat and you have a 204-vote lead. It's gonna be hard to find enough votes to make up the difference, but they're going to try. They're gonna bring in the Al Franken lawyer. They're gonna bring in the same lawyer that found the votes for Christine Gregoire in Washington and the same lawyer that found the votes for Franken in Minnesota. They're gonna bring in the same guy into Wisconsin here. So naturally the media is now doing everything they can to discredit the evil Republican county clerk, even though Democrat officials, as I said, have been looking over her shoulder every step of the way so that everything's been done completely on the up and up, but a scapegoat must nevertheless be found.

Unlike the Fort Hood Massacre Idiots can Make Accusations because the Arizona Shooter isn't a Muslim

Since the media identified the shooter, who tried to assassinate Congresswoman Giffords, is not a Muslim, it is an all out media frenzy to make accusations and blame people without justifiable proof. Also, some of the accusations are way off base. To blame Rush Limbaugh, Sarah Palin, and the Tea Party Movement has as much claim as to blame Satan, the Easter Bunny, or Santa Claus. I can recall the Fort Hood Massacre as Obama tells the media not to jump into conclusions because the accused is a Muslim. However, this is not the case with the Arizona massacre. That doesn't count.

(ABC NEWS) The Arizona sheriff investigating the Tucson shooting that left U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords critically wounded had harsh words today for those engaging in political rhetoric, calling conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh "irresponsible" for continuing the vitriol.

Limbaugh today railed against the media and Dupnik for trying to draw a link between the heated political climate and the shooting rampage, calling the sheriff a "fool." But Dupnik stood by his assertions.

Investigators have yet to determine what motivated 22-year-old Jared Lee Loughner, described by some as appearing to be mentally unstable, to allegedly open fire on the crowd outside the Tucson Safeway. However, so far there is no evidence that he has any ties to any political group.

Obama Letter Fetches $7000 while Harry Reid's Letter for $2.1 Million

A struggling mom who wrote to Obama about her financial hardship and received a short handwritten response from the president sold it to an autograph dealer to help pay for her house. The amount disclosed for the letter was paid to her in the amount of $7,000.00.

Honestly, the lady got screwed and duped. Conservative talk show Rush Limbaugh got $2.1 million for a smear letter that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid wrote. It tells alot about the worth of the president if he can only muster $7000 for his letter.
