Obama Doesn't Want Hillary to Mess with His Legacy
Rush Limbaugh.com ^ | August 12, 2015 | Rush Limbaugh

RUSH: Hey, I thought I'd made myself clear in the last hour. I warned you people, I'm not getting sucked into anything here. When I see the Department of Justice is going to investigate Hillary Clinton or whatever follows her server, her e-mails, you don't have to tell me that that means Obama is gonna investigate Hillary, which means that nothing's gonna happen. You don't have to tell me that. I understand. I got loads of e-mails here.

"I never thought you'd fall for the trick, Rush. I never thought you'd fall for it." I'm not falling for anything. I'm telling you that it's one little part, one cog in the wheel that is the Hillary Clinton campaign. We have a presidential candidate under criminal investigation. Whether they do anything with it or not, time will tell. We've not seen this. The Democrat campaign itself, basically we got two people running and pretenders, and Walter O'Malley... Sorry. Walter? What's his name?

Martin O'Malley. I keep thinking Walter O'Malley of the Dodgers. So you've got Martin O'Malley out there. He can't get any traction anywhere. You've got Lurch thinking of get in, and he probably will. Biden? I don't think there's any doubt Biden's gonna get in, depending on what they do, and that could be why they're doing this DOJ stuff with Hillary, by the way. Obama doesn't want her. I'm convinced that Obama doesn't want her messing with his legacy.

Okay, here's the way these people think. Here's Obama, two years left. In his mind there's been no greater president. Look at all the firsts! Health care? People tried for 200 years and he got it. He stopped Iran from getting a nuke. (I know that's not what happened. That's the news, though. He did it.) He got us out of Iraq. (All lies. But that's the legacy. The media will write it for him.) What if Hillary comes along and does an even better job? He's not gonna permit that chance to happen!

A better job in terms of the way the Democrat media would write it up. It's a worse job as far as all of us are concerned. So you have Hillary: An aging, unappealing, it's-her-turn kind of candidate, again. She is not exciting. She's not charismatic. She's not -- I don't know what -- friendly. She just doesn't have all of the characteristics to say her husband has. You never hear her described the way he is. He walks in the room; he owns it. When he's talking to you, he makes you think you're the only one in the room.

Does somebody ever say that stuff about Hillary? Nobody does. And we're finding out that those kind of characteristics do not transfer within a marriage. Okay, so he may be the alpha male, top dog and women melt or whatever it is they want to say. None of that is ever said about Hillary. Okay, over here Bernie Sanders. And, by the way, Bernie Sanders, his polling data is not the only bad news for Hillary. There's other bad news for her, polling data in Iowa in terms of the Republicans who now beat her.

Four different Republicans now beat her in Iowa. So Iowa and New Hampshire, she is in a world of hurt. She's down 44-37 in New Hampshire against Bernie Sanders. The Democrat Party they tell us is the party of the young, party of the hip, the party of the future, the party of the Millennials, the party of cool. Really? You got an 80-year-old guy here tromping around, getting pushed off the stage by #BlackLivesMatter protesters. And you got Mrs. Clinton, who can't stay out of the crosshairs of the Department of Justice.

There's nothing young, cool, hip, futuristic about either of them. Somebody want to explain this to me? Meanwhile, on the Republican side, you've got diversity like the left claims to demand. You've got youth. You've got cool and hip in its own way. And plus you have all the great other attributes of conservatism: Respect for the founding and traditional American values and so forth. I don't even see the contest here, but particularly on the left, where you have all these people, Hollywood and everything.

They own pop culture. Where is that reflected in their presidential field? (interruption) Well, don't give me that. Lincoln Chafee wanted to change to the metric system? Give me a break! Who even knows who Lincoln Chafee is? Anyway, nobody ever says that, but if you're an average voter or whatever, and you look at the way this is playing out, I don't think the optics of the Democrat presidential campaign just don't do it.

The only thing fueling it, I think, on the left is hatred for us I think that's what primary energy driver on the Democrat campaign is hatred for conservatives, hatred for Republicans. (interruption) I don't... Maybe "the first woman president" matters to some, but I don't think nearly like first black president mattered to a lot of people. The first black president crossed all ethnic boundaries, because you have here the original sin of slavery and everybody wants to wipe it out.

And everybody thought the country electing a black president would be the greatest evidence anybody could ever have or see that we have erased our past in that. And of course, who told you it would make it worse? I did. But there is no such similar thing about electing the first female president because there is no original sin in this country involving women. Not like slavery.

I mean, you can't say suffrage, the right vote, whatever. It's not even a factor anymore. So, no, I mean, there may be something strategic as far as the Democrats are concerned about wanting to have first female president because no criticism permitted; it would be sexist and War on Women. But I don't object. I think look at the optics here, and I don't see in either Hillary or Bernie Sanders some of the characteristics the Democrat Party stands for.

Tuff to mess with something that doesn’t exist.

If Obama wants to take Hillary off the table, he will pardon her immediately. And he will quote Gerald Ford liberally as he does so.

I have been saying that Hillary will pull a McGreevey on December 4, 2015. But this email thing is heating up a little bit early. She may have to to announce that Her Truth Is That She Is A Gay American before Labor Day.

Can’t wait to visit the Baraq Hussein Obama Presidential Library and Choom Gang Museum.

Obama does not want Hillary in office, period. People who go after the Clintons do no not live happily ever after and he knows it. He would much rather hand the keys to Bush. They’re like family anyway.

This is why its important, if Donald is the nominee, for him to run against Hillary. Obama doesn’t want to hand the keys over to Hillary but he might take his chances with Donald.

Obama is not above more electoral shenanigans. He has a vested interest in who takes office after he leaves.

This so called case against Hillary is going nowhere. For one thing the Obama=Holder-Lynch DOJ has possession of the server. The DOJ is running the so called investigation. They want it so they can purge anything detrimental to Obama. They won’t go after Clinton because they (Hill & Bill) most likely have the 8X10;s on Bam.

I often agree with Rush but not this time. I think Obama's executing Hillary with a thousand cuts because he needs a puppet to enforce his treasonous "fundamental transformation of America" policies after he's gone.

I fully expect Joe Biden, the puppet, to announce a Presidential run before summer's end. He'll likely be the candidate because he'll have the full backing of Obama including access to the sophisticated technical database that helped Obama win both his elections.

It's very early in this game and I think there will be many surprises ahead.

His legacy is kept alive with Mao, Mussolini, Castro and Harvey Milk.

This thought has crossed my mind as well. Obama ultimately wants to escape a thorough investigation into his 8 years of destruction. You don’t cross the Clintons. We all know that. He would happily hand the keys over to Bush. He might take his chances with Donald.

But with Biden. Well, that lets Obama peacefully retire in Iran.

Good post.

Zero has no love for the Clintons. Shrillary—or at least her campaign—was the first to introduce the birther issue. And there were other harsh words exchanged (Bill’s opinion that if Zero wasn’t black, he’d never be where he was; the whole 3 AM in the morning thing). Zero tossed Shrillary a bone by giving her State, and she messed that up.

Either that or announce that she is transgender. Her new name is Bruce. Or how about do a Rachel Dolezal twist and announce that she identifies as a Black woman. Afterall, she is married to the first Black president. Then she can run as the first Black female for president. That would be really helpful because she can attack those opposing her by playing both the race card and the gender card. A double whammy.

He’s joking with us again, folks.
Ruin his legacy? Seems like he already has done that.

I’m predicting he will be the first to have a POTUS library with multiple branches.

Likely Hawaii, Chicago, and Kenya.
