RUSH: The Russian situation and all that continues to cause a huge meltdown all throughout the Democrat Party. Folks, let me tell you something. The Democrats have not been this mad since Lincoln freed the slaves. Ive never seen anything like this.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: The Democrats are in hysteria. The Democrats are now demanding a 9/11-style special commission to probe Russia. What am I telling you about they cannot accept reality, folks? Seriously, Ive never seen em this mad, the Democrats, since Lincoln freed the slaves.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: I think whats happening You look at this story I mentioned here right before we went to the break top of the hour. This is from Reuters.
Democratic members of the U.S. Congress called on Monday for the creation of an independent commission to investigate Russias attempts to intervene in the 2016 election, and they want it to be like the 9/11 Commission. What they really want is Watergate-style hearings. What they really want is to put somebody on trial for what happened. And again, look, I dont mean to be a broken record. I just have learned that it takes repetition. Even if youre writing, it takes repetition for something to drill down and be understood, to be remembered.
And this inability to accept reality, to me, I think is so important, because many people on the right are constantly trying to figure out how to deal with, how to do battle with, how to beat the left, how to understand them. And it is never understood properly because we assign to them the same characteristics that we assign to ourselves, which is understanding, reason, commonsense, acceptance. They have none of that. So our efforts to build bridges to them for common understanding and so on always will fail.
Because if you look at this demand here for a 9/11-style commission, what is its root? Its root is that they cant accept that they lost. In their minds, they didnt lose. Reality is that they got snookered, folks. They were schlonged in the Electoral College. They were schlonged. They were defeated. Theres no question about it. But not to them! To them, that is a construct. The majority has put together this set of circumstances that resulted in Trump winning, but it isnt real. So they want hearings to expose whatever the construct is. They want hearings to find out who did this. And in their minds right now, its the Russians.
Its the Russians working together with Trump. Thats what they hope to uncover. They want to find the link between Putin and Trump that ended up defeating them. Thats what they think exists. So they live in an alternative universe. They do not live anywhere near reality. Theyre unable to accept reality because there is no reality to them. In this case, they got snookered. You know, I actually think if you put yourself in their shoes right now, Im watching these Sessions hearings, and a thought came to me.
I look at the New York Times front-page story today on Sessions, as I mentioned, and its a puff piece. This is so, so extraordinary. So out of character. Normally on a day like this, the New York Times would write a piece savaging Jeff Sessions, and they would bring up every false allegation ever made about the guy, and they would try to pass it off as real. And the allegations would be rooted in that hes a secret member of the Klan, that hes a racist pig, that he hates minorities. This would normally be what they did.
But today they write a glowing puff piece. Now, the reasons are clear to me. They realize they cant stop him so theyre holding their fire. Theyre keeping the powder dry, so to speak, and theyll launch this other stuff after hes confirmed and when theyre about to do something in the Trump administration that the left doesnt like, then theyll try to sabotage it and stop it. If you look at the hearings today We had a caller, Rush youve always said that the liberals, when theyre in power, are dangerous; when theyre out of power, theyre funny. Dont you think theyre pathetic right now?
And the caller has a point, cause Im watching these hearings today, and it was pitiful. It was pathetic. They launched their best ammo. They launched the tactics that have always worked for em. They had Code Pink in there. They had people dressed up like members of the Klan. They have some group of black activists somewhere doing a sit-in at one of Sessions offices. The stuff that always works for them, the stuff that has always garnered them favorable media coverage, the stuff that has always successfully been implemented to frighten and scare Republicans into cowering in the corner.
None of its working and in many ways, its all they know. They dont know how to prevail on ideas, because they cant. Their ideas There was another poll I saw, by the way, when I was away. And its not new. It is that self-identified conservatives equal 35% in America, self-identified liberals 26%. And thats been the case (plus or minus a couple points either way) for 30 years. The liberals are not the majority, at least when you ask people to self-identify.
Now, in their minds they are the majority, but they know in their minds they cant win in ideas because they dont have the support of enough people for their ideas. Folks, this is something we can never forget. This, in fact, is what we were all questioning during the eight years of Obama. Were sitting here, Have we finally been overtaken? Have we lost the country? Do people actually agree with this garbage? It turns out they didnt. They didnt have the guts to say they disapproved of Obama, but if youre asking them about his agenda, a clear majority disapproves of his agenda.
When you put him in the question they will not go negative because of race, Im sure. But the fact of the matter is, they are a minority, and that didnt change in the eighties. They were able to make themselves look like the majority with the assistance of the media and a successful cowering by the Republicans. I mean, it infected everybody. So many of us were asking, Have we lost the country, are we officially outnumbered? I cant tell you the number of people I know who thought that we had finally lost the country, that we were outnumbered. And we arent. And when you get right down to it, other than the state of California and New York, were not even close. Theyre not even close.
So the tactics that they have used, they never triumph with superior ideas because theirs arent. They triumph via bullying. They triumph with well, phoniness. I mean, look at gay marriage. A majority of people in the states, when referendums came up, opposed it. But the Supreme Court comes along and says its constitutional and so its the law of the land. But it is not supported by a majority of the American people. In that way, its forced on everybody, same thing as Roe v. Wade, its forced on everybody, its made to look like the American people support it, when they dont.
So the left is in a situation here because theyre up against somebody they dont know how to deal with, Donald Trump. Donald Trumps not an insider, hes not a typical Republican who cowers in fear at all of their attacks. If youre a Democrat, if youre a liberal Democrat, you have to have some things in your mind, that the Republicans are gonna always cave. All you have to do is call them racists or sexists and theyll cave. That all you have to do is call em people that have no compassion, whatever it is, and their experience is the Republicans cave, and the experience is you can bully your way to power.
And then once you get there you can put all kinds of your people in these cabinet level positions, these regulatory agencies, unelected regulatory positions so that they continue to implement the liberal agenda even though they havent been elected to do it, it makes it look like theyre a minority when theyre not. But when they have to win with ideas, they cant; and its on display right here in the Sessions confirmation. Theyre overmatched. They come at Jeff Sessions in the way they always go after Republicans. In fact, theyre even pulling back on that because they know they dont have the votes.
So theyre going through the motions of trying to categorize Sessions as a former Klan member in hiding or a racist or what have you, but thats even half-assed. They cant beat Sessions debating the Constitution. They cant beat Sessions by discussing the Constitution or making him look like he doesnt believe in it because theyre the ones that behave outside it. So their natural tendency is to bully and to threaten and to allege and to accuse, and that isnt working. Its not intimidating.
Like Meryl Streep. People are laughing at Meryl Streep, except Hollywood people.People are laughing at her, or theyre telling her to shut up, or were tired of it, we dont want to hear it. Code Pink, thats not changed anything in there today, didnt change anybodys mind. An association of black activists with a sit-in at Sessions office is not changing anybodys mind. And this is all theyve known. They cant win with ideas.
I actually think that theyre depressed. If you could drill down into the pit of the soul of each of these leftists, you would find that theyre in utter panic and in a deep depression. Cause they cant stop anything the way theyve always been able to. Not now they cant. That doesnt mean theyre gonna give up and go away. Thats my whole point; theyre not. But they do look pathetic. They look outclassed. I mean, to watch Dianne Feinstein, it was pathetic.
Dianne Feinstein in her opening statement on Jeff Sessions bringing up Roe v. Wade and clearly trying to say that Sessions was gonna force women to the back alley, nobodys buying it. Thats not who the guy is. They get away with lying about people and mischaracterizing em and the media piles on and helps them. The media didnt pile on and help em with Sessions today in the New York Times. So I think that theyre trying to figure out what happened and since theyre in denial, since they have not come to grips with the fact that they have been rejected and, by the way, nobody wants to think that.
Nobody wants to think theyve been rejected either in a personal relationship, at work, wherever, nobody wants to feel rejected. And thats something that whenever it is happening to you, youll try to convince yourself that its anything but rejection. Rejections so utterly personal and they have been rejected. They have been politically, policy-wise, rejected, after what they think is the historic presidency of Obama, the hope and change, greatest president ever, and then Hillary to follow, and all of thats been rejected. And they havent come to grips with it.
So, there has to be a reason this was stolen from them. So they want these hearings now. And, in fact, from The Politico, this headline: Former Clinton Campaign Manager Compares DNC Hack to Watergate. This would be Mook. Hillary Clintons former campaign manager wants America to take cybercrimes more seriously, writing in The New York Times that the effects of such crimes I told you, they want Watergate-style hearings.
They need to find a way to get their power back. They cant win it back right now. They cant find enough people to vote for em, so theyve got to find a way to criminalize the people who beat them and get them thrown out of office. Fascinating to watch.
Hahahahaha, one of the best lines I’ve heard in a long time
you mean:
“Since Lincoln freed THEIR slaves”!
Excellent point.
The leftist socialist democrats have less than ten days to come up with a crisis, or attempt a coup.
Either way, they really won’t like the result.
Mad and extremely clever!! Right from under the republicans noses they stole their thunder!!! Same chit the rats are pulling today....WAKE the hell UP stupid idiots representatives you are the MAJORITY DONT FUDGE IT up again !!!!
He should have credited Rob Schneider the actor/ comedian.. it was his line from just after the election (11/18/16 on Twitter)
Liberals would rather believe 1000 lies as to why they lost rather than accept the truth that their philosophy of transsexuals in the military, men in the little girls restroom, gay marriage, political correctness, fewer good full time jobs, outrageously priced health insurance, gun grabbing, and more government interference, millions of unvetted Muslims and illegal aliens on welfare didnt play well with anyone outside of big cities, the northeast, and the left coast.
Goldenshowergate is unraveling tonight. 4chan was the source for the intelligence
