BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Here is reason 247 why I am not a Republican: "Republican governors, battling climate change in their states and fed up with the GOP’s inability to organize in Washington, are urging their congressional colleagues to start the new Congress with unprecedented dedication to addressing global warming." Ladies and gentlemen, have you seen the headlines out there today? Chicago has the most consecutive days of snowfall since records began in 1884. Chicago is the coldest it's been in a decade. Flint, Michigan, breaks its 95-year-old record for cold. Blowing snow, frigid temperatures pound the nation, 40 below zero in places, and the snow in the Northeast is so bad that JFK and LaGuardia and Newark are backed up five hours. If you're planning on flying today, the whole air traffic control system from the Midwest to the east is going to be backed up because of these delays in New York City. GOP governors urge action on global warming in the midst of a deep freeze! It's just a huge disconnect. In fact, what do they want to do? They want to make it colder? That's what the objective of global warming is, is to make it colder, is it not? If we had a genuine ice age descend upon us, would they then tell us to increase our carbon emissions?

I've often said, ladies and gentlemen, that politics is show biz for the ugly. This can be demonstrated and illustrated, and you can see proof if you go to www.DrudgeReport.com, there's a picture there of Henry Waxman, because Henry Waxman, the chairman of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, says that he wants to pass a climate change bill before Memorial Day. He said today the environment and US economy depend on congressional action to confront the threat of climate change. They want to make it colder? It's absurd. Everybody listening in the upper one-third of the United States of America, do we now all agree there is global warming? Madison, Wisconsin, in the midst of this, is enacting draconian global warming measures for people to live by in their city. There's a story somewhere here in the stack of a 91-year-old woman in Great Britain who died after not having 16,000 pounds to winterize or get her home ready to go, according to new environmental regulations. She just died because she didn't have the money.

Here it is: "A family have expressed their fury after the death of their disabled 91-year-old mother who 'was forced to take out a second mortgage to foot an unnecessary £16,000 council bill.' The family of bed-ridden grandmother Dorothy Hacking blame Thanet Council for 'disgusting treatment' after the pensioner became overstretched trying to pay for work to meet government regulations to reduce CO2 emissions. They say she was beset by stress and health problems after being left with no option but to take out a second mortgage for the stone-cladding repairs to make her home compliant with the Home Energy Conservation Act in Ramsgate, Kent." This is the kind of stuff that Carol Browner, the new EPA chief for Obama, is planning for us. The stress, and I'm sure being 91 years old, didn't help.

Reason number 248 why I am no longer a Republican: Headline: "'McCain Ally Graham Becomes Obama Foreign Policy Player' -- To look at President-elect Barack Obama and Sen. Lindsey Graham sitting side by side Wednesday and to hear them passing out praise, you wouldn't know that scarcely 10 weeks ago they were at political war." Well, the premise of that is wrong. They were not at political war. Had Lindsey Grahamnesty and McCain been at political war, they might have won. As you know, Graham is the bootlicker, friend of Senator McCain, crisscrossed the country with him during his losing presidential bid. Lindsey Grahamnesty said, "I think this is a good way to get started. The campaign is over. I'm disappointed in the outcome, but like every American I'm excited about what awaits our country in the future." Hey Lindsey, most of the people in your party are not. They are scared to death about what the future holds, and they see people like you caving on them left and right, illustrating there is zero Republican leadership in Washington, DC. And here's what's going to happen in 2010. Mark my words on this.

Lindsey Graham and all the others in the House and Senate, the Republicans that are guilty of this, of caving to the whole notion, "We want Obama to succeed," they are going to face more trouble from their own party voters in the next election than they will ever face from the Democrats and the American left. Mark my words. If this stuff keeps up, if there is no opposition, if there's no attempt to derail this headlong move into FDR 2, if there is no effort whatsoever to stop the plunge we have into the government absorbing the US economy in gulp after gulp after gulp, the people who did not stand up and fight this are going to pay for it. They are not going to be thought of as wonderful; they're not going to be thought of as bipartisan; they're not going to be thought of as open-minded. They're going to be thrown out. They do not understand this, and they do not believe it.

"Graham told Obama that the foreign leaders they'd met are extremely enthusiastic about his inauguration on Tuesday. 'There's a moment in time for this country to re-engage the international community, and to make sure that we have international support to stabilize Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iraq,' Graham said. '(Obama's) popularity and the respect he has earned throughout the world give America a chance to re-engage not only in the region, but in a way that in the long run makes his job easier and takes the pressure off our troops,' he said. Graham turned to Obama and added: 'That's a compliment to you and the way you have campaigned, and the goodwill you have generated.'" I stopped reading this piece at that point. I didn't want to read any more of this. It's sickening. It is a repudiation of his own party, and I'm going to tell you what's going to happen with Afghanistan, folks, and I want you to listen to me very closely. Mark this down, January 15th, 2009: The Bush administration, within the past six months or so, has implemented a new strategy in Afghanistan. There are more troops headed on the way, so forth, and it's not going to be a surge, but the Afghan policy is now ramping up as Iraq is slowing down and normalizing.

Do you know in Iraq, car sales are off the charts? Automobile sales. Automobile sales are off the charts in Iraq. Well, given their baseline. I don't think their sales would compare to ours, obviously, but given their baseline, automobile sales are off the charts. The Big Three ought to open dealerships and auto manufacturing plants over there, and they could do it without unions.

Now, ladies and gentlemen, what's going to happen here in Afghanistan is that shortly after Obama is inaugurated, he's going to announce a brand-new Afghanistan policy, and we're going to go in there and kick butt, and the fact of the matter is it's already in place. Grahamnesty and these guys are falling right into Obama's trap here. Why do Republicans need to be running around talking about how the world loves us more now because Obama's there, we're going to have newfound respect? Last I looked, in a lot of places around the world they're burning pictures of Obama. And how about this? How about all of a sudden now, Obama says that capturing Osama doesn't matter now, it has nothing to do with victory whatsoever. Isn't that convenient? One of the major benchmarks that the left and the Drive-By Media used the past six years to anoint the Bush policy failure is we didn't capture Bin Laden, and now it doesn't matter. If I'm a worldwide terrorist, and I'm watching all this, there are certain things that I have to realize here, that my task has just been made easier. My task has just been made much easier.

The United States claims it's gonna close Guantanamo Bay, where it has been learned that 61 detainees who were released from Club Gitmo have returned to commit terrorist acts. Folks, it's going to be fascinating to watch, it's going to be frustrating, too, and I understand it every bit as much as you do, but elections have consequences. And right now, our elected infomercials, or very few of them -- John Boehner is standing tough in the House on the second half of the TARP bailout. By the way, Citibank, I'm driving in to work today, I'm listening to a little news, and they're using the word "insolvent." The stock price last I looked was at $3.60. Insolvent. And then the commentator had to define insolvent for the audience because this is stupid network I was listening to, "Insolvency means that you owe more than you have, you owe more money than you have." Really? Insolvency. Not bankruptcy. Insolvency. Keep in mind these people were bailed out. These people were bailed out last fall. This should not be happening if these magic bailouts from the TARP fund actually work. Lindsey Grahamnesty.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Now, get this. This is something only your host would notice. This is a tiny little blurb (shuffling papers), a little AP blurb here in the New York Times on their website. "Democrats Try to Extend Tax Cuts Using Recovery Bill." It's a small story, small headline. It's nowhere near front page. Would that catch your attention? "Democrats Try to Extend Tax Cuts Using Recovery Bill." Here are the details: "Barack Obama's economic recovery bill has grown to $850 billion after negotiations with his Democrat allies in Congress who have rewritten some of the President-elect's tax proposals and may drive the price tag even higher," and I'm sure Obama doesn't care. The higher it goes, the better. The more he has to spend, the better.

"For starters..." Now, this is where this gets interesting, and I'll bet you my take on this will shock and stun you. "For starters, Capitol Hill Democrats are trying to use the economic recovery bill to extend a tax cut for middle to upper income taxpayers..." Can I say that again? Because you might think I am making this up. I have yet to see this anywhere. I have yet to hear that the Democrats anywhere are in favor of extending tax cuts (I guess these are the Bush tax cuts) for middle to upper income earners. In other words, this story says Capitol Hill Democrats want to extend tax cuts for the rich! (interruption) No. No, that's not the point here. Let me finish the sentence. Well, they may be following my advice. But it's whose advice Obama is not following that makes this interesting to me. Just let me finish this. To me, this is profound. I don't see this. I have not seen, where Democrats all of a sudden, congressional Democrats, Capitol Hill Democrats, are in favor of extending tax cuts for the rich.

That's about as shocking as Algore coming out and admitting that global warming's a hoax! This is not in the Democrat playbook. This is not anywhere in the Democrat liberal belief system, that you extend tax cuts for the rich. But that's what Capitol Hill Democrats are trying to use the economic recovery bill for. This is the end of the sentence: "...despite concerns from Obama's transition team that it won't boost the economy." What is this? Congressional Democrats, Capitol Hill Democrats want to extend tax cuts for the rich, Obama's transition team says, "Nope, that won't boost the economy." Now, who are Capitol Hill Democrats listening to? Snerdley asked the right question. Capitol Hill Democrats, maybe some of the Democrat Blue Dogs buy into this, but you think Pelosi and Reid are buying into this? Who is this? But my question is, if the Obama transition team says that extending tax cuts for middle and upper income taxpayers will not boost the economy, then what good was his dinner that he had the other night with these conservative pundits?

These conservative pundits had to go in there... I mean, Obama's willing to listen, right? He's willing to listen to any idea that works, even if it's not his. I don't know what happened at that dinner, but I'll guarantee you that one of the common themes that was or had to have been mentioned if these guys actually talked about conservatism was tax cuts. So what good was the dinner if the Obama transition team doesn't believe in them? It's like I asked yesterday, "You actually think Obama goes into these dinners -- I don't care whether it's with the lib columnists or the moderate columnists or the conservatives, you actually think he's going in there asking them to change his mind?" Ha-ha-ha-ha. If you believe that, you haven't turned in your $40 coupon to digitize your TV. Audio sound bites, ladies and gentlemen. Last night, Fox News Channel special report with Bret Baier because Brit Hume retired, Mort Kondracke said this about Obama.

KONDRACKE: Besides having -- having dinner with conservative columnists, he also had -- had dinner with a bunch of liberal columnists. I'm here to invite President-elect Obama to have dinner at my house with a gaggle of moderate columnists any time he'd like to.

RUSH: There wouldn't be anything said! You get a bunch of moderates together afraid to tell people what they really think, that would be one of the most boring dinners I could imagine attending: Obama with a bunch of moderates. Last night on Hardboiled, Chris Matthews talking to Clarence Page of the Chicago Tribune, and they had this little exchange here about Obama's dinner with the conservative columnists.

PAGE: Obama saying no red state, no blue state, we're the United States of America. But I'll be more impressed when he brings in other really rabid, uh, not just critics, but assault dogs who go after him --

MATTHEWS: (interrupting)

PAGE: -- every night over on Fox.

MATTHEWS: Who's he going to bring, Rush Limbaugh in?

PAGE: Why does he meet with the neocons?

RUSH: "When's he going to bring Rush Limbaugh in?" they're all wondering. I hijacked that dinner, not even being there. They're all wondering, "When's he gonna bring in Limbaugh?" Well, now, that's human nature. This is a good point. One of the things... You know, I was talking to F. Lee Levin via iChat when I got back from Washington when I had learned about this, and all these e-mails were coming in asking me if I was there. You know, Levin was a little bit ticked off because he thinks these guys are sellouts heading to dinner with Obama, and I said, "No, no, no. Man, you gotta understand. They're in their element. This is inside the Beltway. They want to matter. This counts." I said, "Mark, do me a favor. Take a look at all the people who weren't invited and think about how angry they are." You know, there are a lot of people (I could name names here, but that's not the point) on our side.

There are a lot of conservative intelligentsia inside-the-Beltway media types who are sitting there saying, "Why not me? How come Noonan got invited? Kudlow? Who the hell is Kudlow! Who the hell is Noonan? Why not me? I guarantee you this has inspired all kinds of envy, all kinds of jealousy. So here we've got Kondracke, "Hey, what about me? What about the moderates?" It's just the old saw. If you really want something, you don't let somebody know how badly you want it. But, it is what it is. This Obamamania stuff is real. It has captivated the whole country. I mean, you travel around, you go to airport gift shops, shops on the street, and all the Obama mania T-shirts and the caps, the athletic supporters with Obama's logo. I mean, it's everywhere. It doesn't matter where you go and it doesn't matter what the item is. By the way, I have had two Drive-By institutions ask me what I'm doing for the inauguration. They're running these little blurbs of various people, "What are you doing for the inauguration?" You know what I'm telling them? I said, "Well, I'm going to pretend that I'm there. I'm bringing a Port-A-Potty into the studio, and I'm going to use it every 15 minutes."

To look at President-elect Barack Obama and Sen.

[samtheman]

As bad as Obama is, I am now finally willing to say I’m glad McTraitor lost.

[queenkathy]

I listened to that Graham/Obama love fest and got sick! For SOME stupid reason Graham can’t get over the “can’t we all get along” thing.

He thinks the American people WANT Washington to all get along and work together.

He doesn’t understand his job when the other party has total control of DC. Unfortunately for us, the republicans may have to take a few more election hits before they “get it”.

[ByteMercenary]

‘McTraitor’ is a bit too strong ... ‘McAmnesty’ works better.

#2 says it well ... many of our lapdog RINOs do not understand their role under the democrat bootheel. It is not to indulge in unending comity, but to resist any and all propositions coming from across the aisle with every fibre of their being. Getting along by going along merely blends the political parties and invites disdain.

[Rummyfan]

"What are you doing for the inauguration?" You know what I'm telling them? I said, "Well, I'm going to pretend that I'm there. I'm bringing a Port-A-Potty into the studio, and I'm going to use it every 15 minutes."

LOL!

[conservativehusker]

the republicans may have to take a few more election hits before they “get it”.

They have been slow learners in the past..didn’t wander in the wilderness for 40 years prior to Newt??

They got used to being in the minority.

I’m just glad that with Hagel out of the Senate ..Grahamnesty takes over as the most embarassing RINO..you can have u,m South Carolina....

[DuncanWaring]

Graham is a classic modern-day example of the "Me-Too Republicans" of FDR's era.

[tobyhill]

I've been tired of having to accept GOP scrap. I'm done with them.

[sirchtruth]

As bad as Obama is, I am now finally willing to say I’m glad McTraitor lost.

Even though, I really didn't want McCain to lose, I recognized the rinoism inherent in his whole being. These guys need their asses handed to them in the next primaries and election. We conservative have to kick them out!

[wita]

“Well, I’m going to pretend that I’m there. I’m bringing a Port-A-Potty into the studio, and I’m going to use it every 15 minutes.”

I don’t have a port-a-potty, I have a real one, two actually, and I’ll use them, pretending that I will no longer be naive about where the majority of the American people are willing to take the country.

Except for the war on terror, it appears the country has been on a steady decline since the reign of WJC, with no light at the end of the tunnel for the next X number of year Sss. Emphasis on the S as I fun poke the future presidential sing song pronunciation of all things S, rather than the more traditional Z sound.

Sort of nuculer in reverse.

[LibLieSlayer]

I told the rnc yesterday... I am no longer a repubic... I will never give one penny to the National Party... unless they stop being dims... I also called this little dinner a “meeting of traitors”. I also skewed them for the repubic pukes that accepted this invite. When the fellow continued to beg I said, “You are either very dumb or you are a whore for the party... or both”. I slammed the phone down after demanding that they take me off their “call list”. I also told him that it was becoming quite clear that the party neither cares what the base thinks nor do they ever learn a “hard” lesson.

LLS

[LibLieSlayer]

There are not a “few hits’ left... it is do or die now... and they are dying rapidly.

LLS

[Kakaze]

I listened to that Graham/Obama love fest and got sick! For SOME stupid reason Graham can’t get over the “can’t we all get along” thing.

Hey why not get along?.........it means re-election and that is all they care about.

Very few of the 535, give a damn about us or the republic, its just a cash cow, the culmination of how to be rich and ignore the law, since you write the law!

[healy61]

Gridlock in the congress has never bothered me. It means they are staying out of my hair and not passing laws that inspect my a$$ like someone is on a mission.

[american_ranger]

I used to be a Republican. But when they started forcing their members to get castrated, I left.

[Venturer]

If we ever needed a third party, now is the time.

[samtheman]

You say “McTraitor” is too strong and I respect your opinion on that, esp given his military record. However, I would like to respectfully point out to you that after you said “too strong” you went on to list all the reasons McLame and the other lamo-RINOs really ARE traitors to themselves, their party, and ultimately to their country.

[bushfamfan]

This really is a one-party system now. These idiots of the ‘opposition’(where is the opposition??!!) don’t get it, but there really is nothing to lose now. Mock ‘elections’ seem to be the way we are heading anyway and it will take a few brave souls to call the thugs in charge out and not let up. I would like to copy the liberal scums in one thing and that is organization/protest. I think conservatives need to toughen up and take it to them like they have done through the years.

[samtheman]

I didn’t want him to lose either. I voted for him and contributed to his campaign. But I did so holding my nose. And after he rushed to Washington to “save the day” by meekly submitting to Bush The Stupid’s “bailout plan”, I had to hold my nose tighter than ever.

And I was voting for Palin, more than for McPain.

But now that it’s over, and now that we witness the ever more disgusting behavior of the RINOs, I not only am glad McPain lost, but I say this in all honesty:

Never again. Not one more penny from me or one more of my votes will ever go to another RINO for as long as I live.

[advance_copy]

Elected Republicans Cave to Obama and Left at Their Own Peril

- Secretary of State nominee got conflict of interest up the ying-yang.

- Treasury nominee didn't pay his taxes.

- CIA nominee never done a thing in intelligence.

- Commerce nominee under investigation, had to withdraw.

- Justice nominee worked a pardon for Mark Rich and terrorists.

- Deceiving about having "no contact" with Blago when his Chief of Staff spent hours making contact with Blago.

- EPA nominee member of Socialiste International.

Ole Rush is right about this one. Republicans ought not to be laying down with these dogs, or else they'll get fleas. Any politician gets close to O-dog is gonna live to regret it.

Jiminy, and he hasn't even gotten into office yet. "Gird your loins", y'all.

[bray]

Is Global Warming the Dems most important issue right now? While Rome Burns the Rats play politics.

Pray for W, America and Our Troops

[Kakaze]

But I did so holding my nose.

Even his own mother said......"They ( conservatives) will have to hold their nose and vote for him.......I guess mom really did know, we should have listened to her.

[lentulusgracchus]

Unfortunately for us, the republicans may have to take a few more election hits before they “get it”.

I hope they never get it. I hope they go extinct. The RiNO's have forfeited their right to exercise any office of honor and profit under the United States of America. They are fundamentally decrepit, decadent, gutless, and clueless. They have no "vision thing" and they have no leader. They have no program and no principles, beyond "we ought to run things and treat Main Street Republicans with manorial disdain."

Screw them. Time for them to join the Federalists and the Whigs and the Know Nothings.

Signal Alfa Mike Foxtrot, you self-privileging sacks of barnyard fertilizer. Hey, McCain -- translate for your military-service impaired debating-society buddies. And on your way home to retirement, think about all those "walking K's" you insisted we all ignore, signals from your bretheren you and Kerry and Henry the K all agreed had to be left behind to die in slavery.

Screw all of you.

[sirchtruth]

Never again. Not one more penny from me or one more of my votes will ever go to another RINO for as long as I live.

Good! Our party IS the republican party and as long as we allow these liberal coddlers control and not fully support conservative candidates who actually act and vote conservative, we're going to have to pay the consequences.

As far as I'm concerned McCain and Graham are history.

[DTogo]

As bad as Obama is, I am now finally willing to say I’m glad McTraitor lost.

Indeed. If Juan McShamnesty had won, he'd be inviting Obama to pre-inaugural meetings and caving on "bi-partisan" issue after issue just the same.

[samtheman]

Well, no one outside of Arizona is ever going to have the opportunity to vote against McCain again, that’s for sure.

[SaintDismas]

Man alive it’s really true. The Republican party is finished, and they’re doing it to themselves. You would think that after the election they might wonder, “Gee, what the heck happened here”, but no, they just want to do the same old crap and expect things to be different.

I plan to do what I always do, stay informed, do what I can, and pray pray pray for our country. I won’t treat next Tuesday any different than any other day. It’s not my day, in fact it’s a day of mourning. Our country is in real trouble.

[lentulusgracchus]

Is Global Warming the Dems most important issue right now? While Rome Burns the Rats play politics.

Actually ..... global cooling is coming, some Russian and Danish physicists and climatologists claim, based on their observations of solar atmospheric (chromospheric) activity.

This would be a third- or fourth-order event similar to the "Little Ice Age" or Maunder Minimum, starting in about 20-30 years and lasting perhaps 50 to 200 years, on the jagged temp curve of the "Holocene" interglacial of the last 10,000 years. These interglacial warm periods form a cockscomb-shaped curve from the time temps pop up from frigid to quite warm, and their irregularity persists throughout the interglacial. Previous interglacials look very similar, very "noisy" curves. The curves are complex, but they are made up of underlying second-, third-, and fourth-order variations in atmospheric average temps.

Most all the interglacials are warmest (on average, with wide variations) early on -- and the evidence is in, the earth was, on average, considerably warmer 6,000 years ago during the so-called Climatic Optimum -- and then they gradually cool down over the succeeding 12,000 years or so, until temps crash again in a period of a few years and revert to full or "pleniglacial" frigidity and aridity: the temperate zones become a vast "cold desert". The lush jungles of the tropics disappear, and the world becomes much drier. During the last (Wisconsianian/Wuerm) pleniglacial, the Amazon Basin was what physiographers call a parkland -- treed, but open, just a few more trees than what they'd call a savanna (like eastern Africa). Of course, that means it was receiving far, far less rainfall than it does now.

Of course, the agricultural potential and population "carrying capacity" of the planet drops like a rock.

Something to think about -- by my own eyeballing of the temperature curve of the Holocene so far, the change is only about 600-1200 years away, 1800 years maybe.

Oh, and Nostradamus said he lost all human "signals" from earth at the end of the 37th century. Probably doesn't mean anything, but ..... interesting coincidence.

[gargoyle]

...McCain won the electorate in KY. My wife and stepson voted for Obama. I cast my ballot for Ron Paul. As bad as it seems, we conservatives have a lot to do for 2012. And that is what we should focus on...

[Ron H.]

Not to worry Rush. As with 90% of all Republican sheeple these days they will swallow the rhetoric of the RINO’s who about 4-6 months out from an election will start pandering and pretending to be conservatives and scaring the sheeple as to what will happen if they dare to not vote for the masquerading liberal RINOs. Works every time. These kind of Republican sheeple get the kind of government they so deserve.

[Ron H.]

I listened to that Graham/Obama love fest and got sick! For SOME stupid reason Graham can’t get over the “can’t we all get along” thing.

Yeah, I caught part of the news conference and got sick to my stomach as well. I did notice that Grahmesty was wearing his all-new Obama Knee-Pads.

[Inwoodian]

Could the rumors about Graham and Hatch be true? Blackmail is a powerful inducement.

[doug from upland]

They asked no tough questions of Hillary. I provided two aides of Senators, including the ranking member Dick Lugar, with extensive information about what they needed to ask. Lugar, of course, didn't have the huevos for that. Here is why.

[Ron H.]

Could the rumors about Graham and Hatch be true? Blackmail is a powerful inducement.

I have no proof but I have long heard the rumors and wouldn't be a bit surprised in the least if they were to admit to it publically.

[Theodore R.]

He thinks the American people WANT Washington to all get along and work together.

Yes, I think the American people do "want" that, but they are too uninformed to understand politics and how treacherous it is.

[Theodore R.]

2006 and 2008 taught us for everymore that the Republican primary voters are as dumb and uninformed as their Democrat cousins.

[queenkathy]

What I meant but didn’t say very well is that yes we want Washington to get along, but we already have one democrat party...we don’t need 2. We need to distinguish ourselves. Not just go along with everything they want.

[Conservative Grannie]

Well, there is simply no real alternative for conservatives. If we don’t support the GOP, then the Rats win and our country will never recover. Maybe after a year or two of Obama and a Rat controlled Congress, conservatives will come to their senses and not repeat the mistakes of 2006 and 2008.

I know many here don’t won’t to hear all of this, but it’s the truth. We either support the Republican Party and get some of what we want, or we drop out altogether, the Rats become a permanent majority, and we get nothing at all.

[Cacique]

btt
