| OBAMA: Crack down on lobbyists once and for all so their backroom deal-making no longer drowns out the voices of the middle class and undermines our common interests as Americans. RUSH: Stop the tape. More middle class pandering here. This guy is loaded with lobbyists. He's loaded with Washington types, Franklin Raines, Jim Johnson from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, undermining the common interests as Americans. This guy is not of America. This guy is of Washington and he's simply pandering here from the Democrat Party playbook. OBAMA: And, yes, bring a responsible end to the war in Iraq, so we stop spending billions each month rebuilding their country when we should be rebuilding ours. RUSH: Stop the tape. This is brazen, because we now know that Barack Obama, when he was in Baghdad in July, sought a deal with the Iraqi foreign minister for them to suspend any plan on the withdrawal of US troops until after the presidential election. He has been running around campaigning he's going to get these troops out of there, he's going to get 'em out of there now, this is the first thing he's going to do, it was unjust war, shouldn't have been fought. He raised a lot of money on this basis from the kook fringe. He goes over to Bagdhad and says, hey, wait a minute, can you guys wait? And this borders on treason. This is something that McCain ought to be hammering. He is not allowed to do this. He is not entitled to do this, to go negotiate on behalf of the United States as a presumptive president, which is what he was on that trip. He went to Berlin as a presumptive president, president-in-waiting. And to go strike a deal to tell the Iraqis, hey, hang on. Now folks, let me tell you something. I mentioned this the first day I heard the story, and it's been confirmed, Amir Taheri reported this in the New York Post and he confirmed it in another column today. The Obama campaign confirmed it as well when they sought to deny it. It's now been revealed that they spent five hours trying to figure out how to respond to this, because they were caught. There was a man named Gary Sick, highly respected at Columbia University back in the early nineties who wrote a book filled with abject lies that George H. W. Bush had flown to Paris on the eve of the 1980 election, struck a deal with the Iranians to make sure the American hostages were held until after the election and then released when Ronald Reagan either had been elected or was inaugurated. The Drive-By Media and Tom Foley, the speaker of the House at the time, this was before he started stealing food off of airline flights he was on when he retired, he said the seriousness of this charge is such that we must investigate it. He said, "Despite the fact that there's limited evidence here, the seriousness of the charge means we must investigate it." Well, we not only have a serious charge, we have confirmation of a serious charge. There needs to be an investigation of what Obama was doing. Now, I don't know when he put this together, this two-minute ad. But if he put this ad together after this Iraq story came out, this is foolhardy, because there are enough people out there that are going to blow smithereens this whole concept that we need to get out of Iraq, we need to get out now so that we can start saving money that we're spending in Iraq and spending here. He wants to keep the troops of the United States in Iraq until at least 2011 or 2012. And why? Because he wants to be able to claim he brought victory. That's what all this is about. Before Bush leaves office, if they can secure defeat they'll do it if they could blame it on Bush. They tried for a year and a half, but there's a guy that got in the way of that. His name is General David Petraeus and they tried to destroy him as well. So now that their attempt to secure defeat failed and hang the noose of failure around the neck of George W. Bush, now all of a sudden what does Obama want? He wants us to stay in Iraq, and he went over and talked to the Iraqis about it, in violation of US law. He wants to be able to thus get credit for bringing the troops home, he wants to get credit for victory, bringing the troops home. It's all a scam, folks. This is a great example of the fraudulent, phoniness, total plastic banana, good-time rock 'n' rollerness that is Barack Obama. OBAMA: Doing these things won't be easy, but we're Americans. We've met tough challenges before, and we can again. RUSH: Stop the tape. The biggest challenge -- and I mean this from the bottom of my sizable beating heart -- kaboom, kaboom, kaboom -- the biggest challenge we Americans will face domestically will be if this guy gets elected. It will be a battle to hold on to the private sector, capitalism and our freedom versus a bunch of people who want to socialize and nationalize this country. And, by the way, I have a couple of important monologues coming up on that subject as the program unfolds before your very eyes and ears, because we are on the highway and we are exceeding the speed limit toward the city of socialism, toward the nationalization of businesses, and it's happening right before our eyes under the pretext of, we've got no choice, these companies, we can't let them go south, too many people involved here, be too much pain, we gotta bail 'em out. So the biggest challenge you and I will face will be stopping this guy and this band of liberal socialists that he's going to bring to Washington with him. And we Americans are up to it, but it's a damn shame we even have to be faced with this. Here's more from this ad. OBAMA: I'm Barack Obama. I hope you'll read my economic plan. RUSH: Stop the tape. Who reads people's economic plans? Why don't you instead of doing a two-minute ad go out and do a speech or show up and do a town hall and tell us the specifics of your stupid plan? "I'm Barack Obama, and I hope you'll read my plan." Yeah, you know what Barack, I hope people will read my radio show tonight, rather than listen to it, I hope they'll go to my website and read my transcripts. Why don't you tell us about your economic plan? This is not a plan. This is nothing more than a complaint of capitalism. This is nothing more than an enemies list of the people you intend to get even with. And guess what? They happen to include American corporations and employees of those corporations, the American people in general. What economic plan? You don't have an economic plan. You've got change, change, change. Change? Change? You're hobnobbing with Hollywood last night for nine million bucks, Barbra Streisand headlining, that's change? You said you didn't want to go back to the nineties, you wanted to go forward. You're heading backwards, sir, you're backpedaling. You're backpedaling as fast as Deion Sanders. OBAMA: I approve this message because bitter partisan fights and outworn ideas of the left and the right won't solve the problems we face today, but a new spirit of unity and shared responsibility will. RUSH: Unity and shared responsibility? (To Read The Rest of The Transcript Click Link Below) *CLICK LINK BELOW* http://www.rushlimbaugh.c... |
