RUSH: F. Chuck Todd is the host of the NBC show Meet the Depressed. It airs on Sunday morning. Theres a daily version of Meet the Press. Now, I have shared with you in the past that I have now the firm belief that many journalists who say that theyre in the news business or in the media are Im trying to find a soft word. Im not trying to be insulting. Im trying to be descriptive. I think theyre really uneducated.
I think they dont know half what they think they know, and this lack of knowledge is accompanied by an arrogance and a condescension to everybody that gives the impression that they think they know everything and you dont know anything. I dont think theyve been well educated. I think their education has been stunted and limited. Its not been broad-based, and it reaches so far as many of them not even understanding the basics of the foundation of this country. They dont understand the Constitution.
Every damn one of them needs to take the course Introduction to the Constitution authored by Hillsdale College. I offer as evidence for this Chuck Todd at NBC. Now, these people hate Roy Moore. They hate him to begin with because hes Christian. He used to be a judge in Alabama. He won the Senate Republican primary election over Luther Strange, and Judge Roy Moore is the judge that was involved in the Ten Commandments controversy in the Alabama courthouse. He wanted them displayed and, of course, the culture war effort by the left to wipe and erase any reference to Christianity was well underway at the time.
So he became a scourge, he became hated and because he was white and Christian, he became a racist, sexist, bigot, homophobic homophobe. So F. Chuck Todd was describing Roy Moore, who they instinctively dont like because they think hes a white zealot and a KKK guy. Chuck Todd led off yesterdays edition of the daily version of Meet the Press with the assertion that Roy Moore doesnt believe in the Constitution as its written. Now, this is a profound insult to anybody who is in government, judge, politics, to say that he doesnt understand the Constitution.
That just, by itself, is an insult. But wait til you hear why F. Chuck Todd thinks that Roy Moore is an idiot. He thinks that Roy Moore is an idiot because Roy Moore said our rights come from God, which is clearly stated in the Declaration of Independence. Chuck Todd thinks rights come from government. Chuck Todd thinks the freedoms you have and the freedoms you dont have are the result of government telling you what you can and cant do, and that that is how the country was formed and that is how it shall be.
Chuck Todd started by touting the election as a purge of the GOP Establishment, Roy Moore winning and Luther Strange losing. He called it a crisis of confidence in Mitch McConnell, a weakened president whos now scrubbing his Twitter feed and the political earthquake in Alabama underneath it all. Then he started jabbing at Roy Moore as a Christian conservative. He said, But that doesnt even begin to describe who the guy really is and he could very well be your next senator. If you dont understand just how freaked out some folks in the GOP and the White House are about what that means, then you dont know Roy Moore.
First off, he doesnt appear to believe in the Constitution as written, and then Chuck Todd played a clip from Roy Moore, who was telling a journalist the following: Our rights dont come from government. They dont come from the Bill of Rights. They come from Almighty God. Chuck Todd thinks the guys an idiot. Chuck Todd thinks the guys a brain-dead extremist, white Christian, probably a white supremacist, and maybe even pro-KKK and Nazi. And that led Chuck Todd to say
After the Roy Moore sound bite, Chuck Todd said, Thats just a taste of what are very fundamentalist views that have gotten him removed from office twice as Alabama chief justice. What Roy Moore said is absolutely spot on and correct. Our rights dont come from government. They dont come from the Bill of Rights. They come from Almighty God. The view of the Founding Fathers and you would know this if youd been educated on it. Im convinced Chuck Todd is uneducated on the Constitution, or maybe ill-educated.
Hes probably been taught the wrong thing about it. The founders of this country saw rights as inalienable meaning natural, God-given, not something given by man. We are all endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights, among them life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Thats in the Preamble of the Declaration of Independence that 56 brave people signed, and that began the process of establishing an independent United States. The Declaration sets out the belief that we are all created by God, our creator and with that creation, we are born with rights. They do indeed come from God.
The Constitution does not give anybody rights. What the Constitution does, ladies and gentlemen, is guarantee them. Because rights come from God, they cannot be taken away. They are natural. They are what we are born with. They are how we are born. In our own Preamble! Government rights dont exist. What government gives you it can be taken away. Government can take away whatever it gives. If that can happen, its not a right. A right cannot be taken away. The Constitution doesnt grant a single person a right.
It guarantees rights that the founders acknowledged we all have. Heres another way of looking at it. This is Ed Feulner, who was one of the founding members of the Heritage Foundation and the president. He said, The Constitution doesnt grant us freedom. It prevents government from taking it, and thats exactly why liberals hate it. The Constitution limits government. The Constitution doesnt empower government to proclaim rights because it cant. The founders didnt believe rights came from government.
Chuck Todd: Roy Moore Doesnt Appear to Believe in the Constitution as Its Written
F. Chuck Todd Displays His Ignorance of the Constitution

It prevents government from taking it, and thats exactly why liberals hate it. The Constitution limits government. The Constitution doesnt empower government to proclaim rights because it cant. The founders didnt believe rights came from government.
The founders believed that the only thing government would do would be to try to take them away from you or limit them. So they wrote a Constitution that limited what government could do and Chuck Todd of NBC doesnt have the slightest idea! When he hears somebody properly reference the source of human rights, he thinks the guy is a conservative wacko Christian fanatic, because he doesnt know that rights come from government! And I dare say Chuck Todds not alone. Id say virtually every other journalist of his generation probably thinks something similar.
And a lot of average, ordinary Americans probably think the government I know college students today (snowflakes, what have you) think the government grants rights, and they think the government should be even more powerful to take away certain peoples rights like your right to free speech. But the Constitution doesnt grant you the right to free speech. It guarantees it. What the First Amendment says is that no law may be written to abridge your freedom of speech, that the state cannot write a law limiting your freedom of speech.
The First Amendment doesnt say government grants us all the right to say what we want except for these circumstances. Thats what the left wants to be able to do. They want to be able to limit speech. And right now, the speech that many leftists want to eliminate is conservative speech, Republican speech, however you want to look at it. They think it ought not be permitted. They think government ought to have the power to punish people that say things leftists dont want to hear.
Chuck Todd thinks thats probably a good idea. Chuck Todd doesnt know that thats unconstitutional. Or at least he indicates here he doesnt know that it is. But hes not alone, as I say. I saw something the other day again that not even a third of the American people can name the three branches of government. They have no idea. Executive, legislative, judicial, no idea. They think the three branches of government are House, Senate, Supreme Court. If they get even that close.
So why would they understand the source of rights? Its easy to understand if youre taught. But because teaching it requires mentioning God, the left will have none of it. Cant have God in the classroom. Cant have God in the public square. Cant have a nativity scene out there, cant do that. And so anybody who does and wants God in a public square is a Nazi, white supremacist, KKK fantastic as far as the average, ordinary leftist of today thinks. And many of those average, ordinary leftists and their thinking are populating the Drive-By Media.
And thats why I say theyre dumb or theyre uneducated or theyre ignorant or what have you, but its dangerously so in their case. I mean, I can understand not liking Roy Moore. Nothing says they have to. Nothing says they have to respect him. But to not understand something as basic and elementary as government does not grant rights. Government writes laws. But it does not grant rights. But you hear people throw the word right around. I have a right to that chewing gum. I have a right to whatever I want. That is a right, if I want it, I have a right.
Thats what people think of rights. Rights are what they want. Rights are what they dont want. I have a right not to hear what youre saying. No, thats not the right. Everybody has a right to free speech, but there isnt a single person that has to listen to you. But the left thinks that the right to free speech means you cannot not listen to them. You must listen to, and you cant disagree. Thats what the First Amendment means to them.
How many times have you heard a leftist say just recently they think the Constitution prohibits hate speech? Somebodys teaching this. Yeah, you cant just go out and say hateful things to people. Constitution says so. Their professors are teaching them this. If the almighty government assist you cant say it, why, there is no other authority you need to cite. The almighty government says you cant say hate speech. Theres no such proscription.
I think F. Todd is a college dropout.
Rush, don’t think for a second he or any other of these clowns are Ignorant of the Constitution. They know exactly what it says and what it means and they HATE IT! Everything they do involves perverting the English language and spewing propaganda in an effort to sway peoples opinion on what the meaning of the word is is.
Face Facts and have the courage to believe the Truth, they are JUST PLAIN EVIL!!! They have only the Lust in their their hearts to have Power and Control over their Fellow Man, just like the descendants of Slave Owners would be expected to act.
