BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Okay. Here's why you didn't know about Hillary Clinton back in 2008, 'cause it comes from an interview that she did with the Sioux Falls Argus Leader editorial board. She did an interview with the editors of that newspaper, and they had tape running, and this is what she said. This is May 23rd of 2008.

HILLARY: Between my opponent and some in the media, uhhh, there has been this urgency to end this. You know, my husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of the June. We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. I don't understand it.

Hillary Clinton Suggests Shes Staying In Presidential Race In Case Rival (Obama) Gets Shot 2008

RUSH: What do you think that's a reference to? They're urging her to get out of the race, and Obama's got an insurmountable lead, and she says, "No, Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June, and it's not even June yet! It's May here. So somebody may be assassinated in June. So I'm staying in!" I mean, folks, what Trump said yesterday doesn't even compare, and I doubt that hardly anybody's aware that Hillary even said this back in 2008. We played the audio; that's why we got the clip. And, by the way, here's one more from Vice President Bite Me. September 20th of 2008 -- this is before the election -- he's out there in Castlewood, Virginia, at a campaign event and, as part of his remarks, Vice President Bite Me blurted out this...

BIDEN: I guarantee ya, Barack Obama ain't taking my shotguns! So don't buy that malarkey! Don't buy that malarkey!

AUDIENCE: (smattering of applause)

BIDEN: They're gonna start peddlin' that to ya! I got two! If he tries to fool with my Beretta, he's got a problem.

VA: Biden's Beretta

RUSH: Okay, now, what is that? Well, all that is is a Second Amendment guy. He might have been impersonating one but that's a Second Amendment guy saying, "You're not taking my guns, dude!" That's what Donald Trump said when he starts talking about, "The Second Amendment people might have..." "You're not taking my guns. No matter who you appoint to the court, you're not taking my guns," is all it means, pure and simple. If everybody could just take a breath here and let's get back to who's really doing damage to our country.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: I want to listen to these two bites again without the pressure of time. Hillary Clinton, this bite that you heard and you're going to hear again, Drudge posted it back in 2008. It went viral on some conservative sites. The Drive-By Media totally ignored it. Hillary Clinton's comment about (paraphrasing), "No, I can't get out of the race yet. Don't forget Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June, the year he ran."

The New York Times, the Washington Post, none of them, none of them carried it, ran it, none of them were interested in this at all. It remained an alternative media phenomenon. And again it's Hillary Clinton in May of 2008 in an editorial board meeting with the Sioux Falls Argus Leader.

HILLARY: Between my opponent and some in the media, uhhh, there has been this urgency to end this. Y'know, my husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of the June. We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. I don't understand it.

RUSH: (imitating Hillary) "I don't understand why people are telling me to quit. It isn't over yet. My husband didn't win 'til June, it's only May now. And Bobby Kennedy got assassinated in June, and it's only May now. So why are you telling me to quit?"

Now, here's a Bite Me. Now, this was September of 2008, a little under two months to go before the election. And when you listen to this, the context is that Biden is attempting to say that all of these gun nuts who think Obama wants to take their guns away from 'em are just crazy. These gun nuts, these NRA types, these Second Amendment goombahs, they're just a bunch of paranoiacs. 'Cause that's not what Obama wants to do.

This is Biden's unique way. I mean, here's a guy that never makes a gaffe, right? (imitating Biden) "Hey, Chuck, stand up, Chuck. Let 'em see ya." Chuck's in a wheelchair when Biden asked him to stand up. This is Mr. Walking gaffe, and whenever he commits one, "Ah, that's just old Joe, ho-ho." When Joe commits plagiarism, "Hey, that's just Joe. He's just trying to help people." So here's Biden, and he's actually trying to get through to gun aficionados that Obama has no designs to take away their guns.

BIDEN: I guarantee ya, Barack Obama ain't taking my shotguns! So don't buy that malarkey! Don't buy that malarkey!

AUDIENCE: (smattering of applause)

BIDEN: They're gonna start peddlin' that to ya! I got two! If he tries to fool with my Beretta, he's got a problem.

RUSH: So he's even alluding to the fact that if Barack Obama comes for his guns, his Beretta is coming out. So who's Biden talking about shooting here? So you got Biden and you've got Hillary both talking about actually shooting somebody, or somebody being shot with guns, something that Trump did not do.

And yet you don't know that those two things happened. Many of you are probably hearing them for the first time.

I think this can explain Hillary in a nutshell.

The difference was that Bobby Kennedy was assassinated by a jihadist, whereas B. Hussein 0bama is a jihadist.
