On Today’s Program:
McCain takes a big lead in one poll, and is ahead or tied in others in the key pre-convention period. Panicking Democrats suffering from buyer's remorse, say it's because McCain got mean. Mean? (Rush 24/7 Members: Listen Here)
Rush really knows how to play the media. He urged McCain not to pick a pro-choice or Democrat VP, and all the Drive-By outlets jumped to report it as a "shot across the bow." Wolf Blitzer asked Tom Ridge about it. (Rush 24/7 Members: Listen Here) Crisis Update: America's Children Forced to Use Last Year's Crayons!
Pearl of Wisdom: "Obama said McCain 'doesn't know what he's up against.' This little man-child doesn't know what he's up against, and that is his past. Barack Obama's closest associates hate America, folks. Bill Ayers and Jeremiah Wright! I mean, stop and think of this. To top it all off, Obama lobbied for infanticide and doesn't have the guts to admit when he's wrong -- such as the surge, for one thing."
Please, Obama, pick serial plagiarist Joe Biden as your VP. He's as arrogant as you are! Rush played an ad from Biden's 1988 run, where he strikes the same themes about America sucking and the world hating us that Obama does 20 years later. The ad also says: "The White House isn't the place to learn." (Rush 24/7 Members: Listen Here)
Pearl of Wisdom: "Folks, I've got it. A bold VP choice for Obama would be South Carolina Senator Lindsey Grahamnesty. Lindsey Graham, moderate Republican of South Carolina. That would be something bold that I would support."
Vladimir Putin (once KGB, always KGB) says that his response to our missiles in Poland won't be "diplomacy." Do you want Obama dealing with Russia, or McCain?
They found another one of Obama's "lost" brothers. He's living in a hut in Kenya.
Lorraine X checks in, and expresses her nervousness about the Christian forum.
Haircuts and showers for the homeless before the Denver convention has helped some of them feel better and look for jobs -- and it didn't take a big government program.
Mayor Bloomberg of New York City wants to put windmills on the tops of buildings and bridges. This "green" stuff has polluted and warped these people's minds, folks.

They had best not attack Poland. I’m a second generation Pole here in America. The Polish are our BEST friend. I don’t think Russia would be stupid enough to do that though, but you never know.
The Mayor of New York Is Nuts
August 20, 2008
BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Ladies and gentlemen... (sigh) This is just indescribable. It’s unbelievably hysterical. The sad thing is that the mayor of New York is dead serious about this. Last night in Las Vegas.
BLOOMBERG: The blackout that hit New York and the Northeast five years ago was a wake-up call that it was time for us to change course, and fast. Some evidence shows that wind farms located far off our shores could meet up to 10% of our city’s electricity needs within a decade. So when it takes to producing clean power, we’re determined to make New York the number one city in the nation.
RUSH: Now, wait a second. Do you know what he’s talking about? He wants windmills atop the skyscrapers, on tops of the bridges. Mayor, if the liberals in Cape Cod led by Senator Kennedy would not allow windmills 30 miles away from them, what makes you think the liberals in New York are going to allow these windmills on top of skyscrapers? We’re not going to allow it. We are not going to have a windmill farm on top of the EIB Building in Midtown Manhattan! It’s not going to happen. Tops of bridges? Imagine putting one on top of the Chrysler Building; imagine putting one on top of the Statue of Liberty. He’s totally out of his mind. They’re all nuts. There’s something about this green movement that has got a poison flowing through the minds of these people.
Schwarzenegger is gone. We have totally lost Schwarzenegger! He’s about on the same page as Obama in saying things that make sense these days. We’re losing our guys. (interruption) Well, that’s another thing you gotta consider. What about those two hawks? Those two hawks led to the breakup of Paula Zahn’s marriage. Well, it was in part, yeah, because her husband was the co-op board president of that building. And those two hawks, they didn’t want the hawks there. The hawks are doing some crazy things. They didn’t want the nest there. Some of the people wanted the hawks there. There was a bunch of strife over these birds. Anyway, the hawks caused friction. Imagine what is going to happen to the birds in Manhattan with all these windmills, when you put windmills in Central Park? Here is one more Bloomberg bite.
BLOOMBERG: It would be a thing of beauty if, when Lady Liberty looks out on the horizon, she not only welcomes new immigrants to our shores lights their way with a torch powered by an ocean wind farm.
RUSH: (laughing out loud) Sorry, folks. This is the mayor of New York City, and he’s serious.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: I was looking for something here. You know, I can’t get over, ladies and gentlemen, this notion of windmills in New York City on tops of the bridges and skyscrapers, a windmill farm out there, before you get to the Statue of Liberty. And I had a story here in the stack, I didn’t get to it, but they’ve got a windmill farm somewhere out in Oregon, and the people who live near it are going nuts by the frequencies put out by the turbines. You need power for a windmill farm to work. I’ve gotta find the story, I won’t be able to do it before we close out today, but I’ll find this story and I’ll have it for you tomorrow, ‘cause it’s hilarious to read this. All of these do-gooder green people, “We’ll put up a windmill farm and we’ll save energy and we’ll save the planet,” and they’re literally being driven nuts by it because of something related to the noise. I mean they’re loud as hell. Remember that guy from Pennsylvania yesterday who did everything he could to keep a Wal-Mart from being built in his neighborhood. So the place where they were going to build a Wal-Mart, they put in a recycling center that recycles steel, and the thing sounds like bombs are going off all day and night, and people there are going nuts, too, all in the pursuit of a green lifestyle.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: RUSH: I have an idea for Mayor Bloomberg, Statue of Liberty. Get rid of the torch. Replace the torch with a windmill. Let the newly arriving immigrants be greeted by Lady Liberty and a windmill.
END TRANSCRIPT
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL................
The blades should replace the spikes on her crown.
We have one windmill turbine right near the center downtown Cleveland being used to power the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. It looks awful.
The point is ? since Obama was on record of saying that we should scrap the missile defense system since it is “ un proven “ and that that money should be used for liberal social welfare programs, whom ? do you trust with America’s security ? Obama ? or McCain ?
Barry’s Brother Lives in Kenya Hut
August 20, 2008
BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: I know Obama is not responsible for his brother. We all have oddballs in our families. We do, but they’re our family. There’s something here, even though this guy is living in a hut, long lost brother found in Kenya by Vanity Fair of all places, imagine they beat the National Enquirer to this story, but what is it, Obama’s favorite biblical passage, “Whatever you do to the least of my brothers, you do to me.” And Obama’s a big believer in the redistribution of wealth. And there’s one member of the Obama family that’s done quite well, and that would be Barry. But it seems like every time we read of Barry’s brothers, they are dirt poor. They are in places that Obama doesn’t even know where they are. Now, I’m not making a comment about the brother. I’m not making a comment about families and stuff. I’m just saying that Obama is presenting himself as a new savior who’s going to equalize things and rid the world of misery and yet this is the second lost brother. The first one was a half-brother. So the lost half-brother was found in a pretty remote area, too, with economic circumstances far beneath those of The Messiah, and now this guy. This guy’s name is George Hussein Onyango Obama. George Hussein Onyango Obama.
Senator Barack Obama’s long lost brother tracked down living in a hut on the outskirts of Nairobi in a shantytown. “Mr. Obama, 26, the youngest of the presidential candidate’s half-brothers, spoke for the first time about his life, which could not be more different than that of the Democratic contender. ‘No-one knows who I am,’ he told the magazine, before claiming: ‘I live here on less than a dollar a month.’” I thought it was a day. A dollar a month! This guy doesn’t earn $12 a year. George Hussein Onyango Obama. “According to Italy’s Vanity Fair his two metre by three metre shack—” (laughing) this is what it says in the story. For those of you in Rio Linda, just think of two yards by three yards, or think of it as six by nine feet. It’s probably about the size of your average bathroom in Rio Linda, the size of this shack. “It is decorated with football posters of the Italian football giants AC Milan and Inter, as well as a calendar showing exotic beaches of the world. Vanity Fair also noted that he had a front page newspaper picture of his famous brother - born of the same father as him, Barack Hussein Obama, but to a different mother, named only as Jael. He told the magazine: ‘I live like a recluse, no-one knows I exist.’” Well, now we do. Senator Barack Obama’s brother, George Hussein Onyango Obama, found living in a six by nine shack on the outskirts of Kenya on less than 12 dollars a year.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Steve Gilbert, Sweetness and LOight blog, asking a very relevant question: “Just how many wives did Obama’s father have? So far we’ve been able to count up three. He was a bigamist. He was married to Obama’s mother when he hadn’t divorced his first wife.” The mother of this George Onyango Obama that they found in a hut in Kenya, J-a-e-l is her name and there’s no mention of her in any of Obama’s books. So there may be a fourth wife that Barack Obama, Sr. had As Steve Gilbert says, “Obama is making Bill Clinton’s life look stable.”
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: By the way, I know what Obama could say to explain the discovery of his half-brother, George Hussein Obama. He could say, (doing Obama impression) “I knew about him. I knew where he was. He’s running the pilot program on my new global warming way to stop it. He’s my green brother.” This guy is living in a six-by-nine-foot shack in the rural hills of Africa. This is exactly what they have in mind for us, folks, with all the global warming rot.
LOL PING!
You gotta love Rush’s staff.
“Obama is making Bill Clinton’s life look stable.”
Had the rare pleasure of listening to Rush today...with my uber-conservative Dad, over lunch. Good times! :)
Cool. You must have one great Dad like me! :-) It sounds like you had an extra special day today. :-) Rush has a way of adding to one’s day, doesn’t he? LOL.
We (you and me) do, and he (Rush) does!
I pity women that don’t have a decent Dad in their lives. It makes a WORLD of difference in a girl’s life to have someone that thinks the Sun rises and sets on you.
The CONFIDENCE that a loving Dad can give a young woman should never be underestimated.
I can slay any dragon...because My Dad says I can. ;)
Exactly ! If George Obama can do it, so can you !
