BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: First question of the night in the debate was a guy, a college student, who's graduating in two years. He wanted to know about jobs, what's happening with jobs. He didn't get his question answered, but Obama started off by saying he wants to bring back manufacturing jobs. It's a college student. He's not in college to work in a factory.
Here is Crystal, Space Coast, Florida. It's great to have you on the program. Hi.
CALLER: Great to speak with you, Rush. Oh, my goodness. I'm glad I waited. I just wanted to know... I remember in February 2009 there was an interview that Obama was involved with, and he said something. I don't remember the exact quote, but I remember these words: "If I don't have this done in three years, then this is going to be a one-term proposition."
RUSH: That's right. He did say that.
CALLER: So why in the world is this not a bigger, you know, quote going around? Maybe Romney and Ryan can talk on this and elaborate a little bit more and talk about it.
RUSH: Well, because nobody believed that he meant he was gonna quit.
CALLER: Mmm.
RUSH: What he really meant was he'd be a one-term president. He meant he'll probably be defeated, but nobody thought he meant he'd roll over and die. That's not a statement that you really try to stick to somebody. I understand why you think it might be effective in an ad just to have Obama saying that even he admitted that if he didn't get it turned around, he doesn't deserve a second term. They could rephrase it that way.
CALLER: Right.
RUSH: But believe me, he wants to win his second term.
CALLER: Well, who wouldn't want to keep that house? (giggles)
RUSH: Oh, and the airplane! Don't forget the airplane.
CALLER: Hell, yes.
RUSH: And don't forget the parties.
CALLER: Oh, absolutely.
RUSH: These people, the Obamas are spending more money than they are budgeted for entertainment, travel, all that kind of stuff. They dig it.
CALLER: Well, he did come here to speak to us, those of us who worked for the Space Center, and I remember his words then, too. "We will save jobs." And here we are, you know, laid off.
RUSH: Yeah, right. (laughing) How was he gonna save jobs at NASA?
CALLER: Exactly. Exactly.
RUSH: When he turns it over to "Muslim outreach"? And, by the way, how's that working out for him? I appreciate the call, Crystal. Thanks much. Who's next? Give me a green line with somebody. Niles in Pineville, North Carolina. You're next on the EIB Network. Hi.
CALLER: Hey, Rush, thanks for taking my call.
RUSH: You bet.

Watch the Full Town Hall Debate between Barack Obama and Mitt Romney
CALLER: Hey, listen, I think what transpired last night regarding Benghazi's question is actually a huge silver-platter campaign gift for Romney. You know, last night the dreams of the Obama White House for burying the Benghazi story became their worst nightmare. Benghazi is gonna be the lead story for the rest of the week. It's gonna be the lead story on every Sunday morning show. And during Monday night's foreign policy debate, Mitt Romney's gonna unwrap that gift and he's gonna use Benghazi's tragic failure and cover-up to sum up Obama's entire foreign policy.
RUSH: It is an excellent point. I asked earlier... Because all the media -- and even people on our side, folks. That montage that I played you mere moments ago, there are a lot of Fox people on that thing. There are a lot of conservative commentators saying, "Oh, yeah, Obama won it. Yeah, Obama won. Yeah, Barack is back," and so forth. I don't understand this. If Romney lost and Obama won this, then why all the talk today about Libya and how Obama gave a false answer on it?
And how Crowley made a fool of herself and how she had to walk it back? She's saying, "Yeah, Romney was right in the main. He just used the wrong word," whatever that is. See, this is another thing. I don't understand liberalspeak or inside-the-Beltway speak. Everybody says Obama won, but all anybody's talking about today is this goof and his lie on Benghazi. You're right. They have tried to cover this up. It's all been a cover up.
They didn't want to use the word "terrorism."
Romney has to spend more words on the facts. He knows what happened, but he needs to splain it for the folks who get their news frm the MSM. In detail.
Obamalies aren’t working this time with middle America.
Obama has jumped the shark.
Had I been on the stage, I would have asked this guy what his major was. I would have then asked him if he really expected to get a paying job in the area of transgendered Aleutian folk music.
But then, hussein was merely hitting all the liberal cliches last night: class warfare, blue-collar work, education, etc. etc. All the same tired old {expletive} lefty-liberals trot out over and over as emotional issues with no real substance behind them.
Rush also got into Fast and Furious.
“But, Tom, let me tell you who didn’t buy the lies, and that’s the Univision audience. And nobody is talking about this save for me and a woman named Molly Ball who wrote about it in The Atlantic. Obama did that one-hour Univision appearance and they raked him over the coals, and that’s a huge Hispanic audience. They raked him over the coals over his empty promise on immigration reform. He hasn’t done anything. And Romney was right about that. Obama hadn’t filed anything, not proposed anything, nothing. Fast and Furious, he was hit on that, and on that Univision show, the host of that show asked Obama point-blank, “Shouldn’t Eric Holder be fired?” They hit Obama point blank, and he lied and he told ‘em it was a Bush administration program.
The Bush administration program was called Wide Receiver. It tracked the weapons. It was a failure of a program and they shut it down two years before Obama took office. The Obama regime liked the program, because they wanted to use it to curtail the Second Amendment. That’s what Fast and Furious was. It was an effort to create mayhem with American guns so the media could report in outrage deaths committed with easily acquired AK-47s that easily ended up in the hands of Mexican drug lords. And the reason they easily ended up in the hands of drug lords is because that was the Obama policy. “
Maybe this is why Hispanics are trending Romney.
I have a friend, from El Paso and born of Hispanic parents. He LOVED Ronald Reagan and when he was on TV my friend would get everyone to shush until the Gipper had finished talking.
Pro-life, pro-family and pro-business. Natural conservatives.
Hopium is DOPE.
