Rush Promotes Teens Book, Now #5 on Amazon Bestseller list
Rush Limbaugh ^ | 8/22/08 | Edzo

Posted on 08/22/2008 7:35:43 PM PDT by edzo4

CALLER: Hello, Mr. Limbaugh? My name is David Beatty, and I'm 16 years old. I want to thank you for the work you do to educate America and reinforce what my parents teach us. Something I believe needs to be re-taught is the value of a strong work ethic. I want people to know that the American dream is still alive. I live in the northwest where many people sing songs of socialism. Kids at school have no idea what it really means to have a socialist society, giving up their freedoms to, quote, "Spread the wealth." And last year, we had the opportunity to have grace shine on our family. We had lost our grandfather and the Marine Corps-Law Enforcement Foundation, Pete Haas stepped in and Pete was like a pillar of silent strength which we will never forget. He helped us go out and see our grandfather buried in Arlington, and these two things tied together because we wanted to thank them for their help last year, and we want to try to raise $25,000 for them from proceeds from our book, and we were wondering how much it would cost to advertise on your show, and I just wanted to talk to you person-to-person about that.

RUSH: So people can go to Amazon and pick it up with their credit card. Well, here's another $10,000 worth of advertising for you, Pulling Weeds to Picking Stocks, 11 bucks, my gosh, you can't beat that, and some of the proceeds will go to the Marine Corps-Law Enforcement Foundation. Well, David, you learned a lesson here. It never hurts to ask for what you want.

here is the Link to amazon if you wish to buy the book

Well, David, you learned a lesson here. It never hurts to ask for what you want.

I wonder if this kid might get an "anonymous" donation from a well known radio host.

dunno if it was out of stock when the call started but it was OOS within one minute. For a really amazing example of the power of Rush, see post #12.
