BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: I tried yesterday to make a point about this business in Ferguson, and I did not spend enough time actually thinking about how I wanted to say it in order to be the most clearly communicable and understood. The artificiality of this, and I do mean artificiality. These were not riots. These were planned, staged, predicted, counted on incidents of civil disobedience. This was not a riot. This did not happen spontaneously. It did not happen because of something that happened unexpectedly that caused people to lose their mind. They planned it. It was a strategic plan,...

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: Oh, yeah. I'm gonna get to Obama last night. Oh, man, am I gonna get to Obama last night. Everybody thinks Obama called for calm last night. That's what everybody thinks. BREAK TRANSCRIPT RUSH: So the president of the United States, Mr. Hope and Change, appeared somewhere in the White House (looked like the briefing room) last night shortly after ten o'clock after the DA in St. Louis had finished his announcement and explanation and taken a few questions. Obama came out and... Well, he called for calm. But then he went on and spoke for 20...

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: Looky here. Looky here, ladies and gentlemen. Jeffrey Toobin on CNN has just finished explaining that it is prosecutorial discretion that Obama will use to justify what he's doing tonight. Ashleigh Banfield said, "If the president's actions effectively nullify federal law, then they're unconstitutional. But if they're merely channel enforcement resources to other areas, then it's within his discretion to do so, right? Is the layperson's version of that, if you're going 70 in a 55 zone, the policeman might pull you over. But if you're going 60 he might use that discretion and say, 'I'm gonna...

RUSH: Did you hear what happened with Don Lemon? You saw it? Yeah, and it is. And I'm wondering, you know, we -- (interruption) Who is saying "yes" to me? Snerdley? Don Lemon on CNN, this is the guy who asked a transportation expert if a black hole could have swallowed the missing Malaysian Airlines jet, a Boeing 777. He's back today, and he was discussing one of the women who was raped by Bill Cosby, allegedly assaulted by Bill Cosby. By the way, is anybody asking what is behind this? Why now, all of a sudden out of the...

Reagan signed an immigration statute – Obama is passing executive amnesty. Rush Limbaugh broke down the dishonest liberal talking points today. Watch liberal Juan Williams get caught in a bald-faced lie. Via Special Report:

...Limbaugh, sounding incredulous, took direct aim at Obama’s answer, stating: “This is unbelievable. This little sound bite of 23 seconds may be more jam-packed with lies than any 23-second ...sound bite I’ve ever played for you.” Regarding Jonathan Gruber, Limbaugh said, “He was in meetings with Obama. Gruber has been bragging about them. Obama has talked about Gruber being in meetings. … He was not just a member of the staff, he was paid $400,000 alone just for this. … Gruber has made almost $6 million in government contracts, advising them on various things. … Gruber has his hands in...

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: To me, this is breathtaking stuff that is happening here, and it's being covered up and hidden because other liberal Democrats know how devastating this is. The media, for example. To report this Gruber business, to be honest about it, would undermine the whole premise of Obama! This guy has admitted the whole premise of Obamacare was a lie. Everything about it was a lie. Now you've got Obama with his threatened executive action -- and don't discount for a moment, there are multiple motives for this. Of course, at the top is actually doing them. I...

Radio host Rush Limbaugh has threatened to sue the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) for defamation, The Daily Caller has learned. Limbaugh retained the services of lawyer Patty Glaser and demanded that the DCCC “preserve all records in anticipation of a lawsuit for defamation and interference” after the Democratic Party group led a campaign against Limbaugh based on out-of-context statements the host made about sexual assault. Limbaugh’s legal team delivered a letter to DCCC representatives Monday informing them of the legal threat. Limbaugh has also demanded a public retraction and apology. The Limbaugh team is currently proceeding from the standpoint...

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: Obama's out there at his press conference yesterday, and it was dripping with condescension. We got some sound bites coming up. F. Chuck Todd says the Democrats are outraged privately that Obama didn't take any responsibility for this yesterday. Yes. F. Chuck Todd on the nightly news last night with Brian Williams, and the question, "I did hear from Democrats today, F. Chuck, and they think the president needs some new people around him." TODD: I heard from Democrats today that thought the president made a mistake not accepting more responsibility today at that press conference. The...

Rush Limbaugh has been playing some amazing audio from Paul McKinley, Mark Carter, Joseph Watkins and Harold “Noonie” Ward, recorded on rebelpundit.com.

Some years ago now, when the conservative media group Newsmax put in a bid to buy the limping, failing Newsweek, I wrote a post arguing that trying to reinvent one of the newsweeklies as a (moderately) right-of-center publication was as good a bet as any. Here was the nub of my argument: If [Jon Meacham, the previous editor] had wanted to play to what seems like Newsweek’s business strength — its large audience outside the Acela corridor — he would have tried to tilt the magazine toward the center-right rather than the center-left, in the hopes of becoming the go-to...

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: Mark Cuban has got the answer. "Mark Cuban has some advice for the Republican Party: Drop the social issues. 'If I was going to give guidance to the Republican Party, I'd say, 'Stay completely out of social issues.'" He said it on CNBC today. I've been hearing that since 1992. BREAK TRANSCRIPT RUSH: I can't tell you how many years, since 1992, that I have been hearing: "The Republican Party better get rid of the social issues or it doesn't have a prayer." And the theory, here's what Mark Cuban says. "If you stay out of social...

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: Folks, there's a lot of stuff in the stacks today. It's not just Ebola. We have the usual Ebola stuff. By the way, that New York Times story, Jonathan Martin had it. "Ebola Response Another Example of Obama Not Running Competent Government." Another example! The Washington Free Beacon has the analysis: "New York Times political correspondent Jonathan Martin," who used to be at Politico, by the way, "said President Obama's response to the Ebola crisis is yet another example that the president is not running a competent government. "'This is a gift wrap issue for the GOP,'...

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: I got a note from a friend of mine last night. I'm going to spend time on this, not right now, but I don't want you to miss this. I got a note from a friend last night who was really happy, really ecstatic, because he believes, or he did until he talked to me, he believes that we are on the threshold here of a major American reawakening. He thinks that we're on the cusp. He can't put his finger on it. He's a well-known writer and he thinks that all of these things happening here...

Friday on PBS's "News Hour," syndicated columnist Mark Shields pointed out, "among young Republicans, 61 percent of Republicans -- young Republicans under the age of 30 are in favor of same sex marriage." New York Times columnist David Brooks "applauded," the GOP for "doing absolutely the right thing in withdrawing" and letting the country have its way. Brooks said "I sort of applaud the minimalism here. Sometimes you let the country have its way and you don't try to determine the shape of the country, you sort of modestly step back and let the country figure out what it believes....

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: There's polling data: "CBS Buries Results of Own Poll Showing Poor Ratings for Obama, Democrats Ahead of Midterms." Yeah, there's an Ebola Stack today, too. That goes without saying. We'll get to everything here in due course, my friends. I'm just setting the table. I'm gonna go to a commercial break here pretty soon, and I have no idea what I'm gonna actually start with in detail. I'm just setting the table for you. I have the audio sound bites arranged by group, and so just whatever I feel whenever I feel it, is what I first...

Discovering the saga of one Angelo Carusone, then the “Director of Online Strategy for Media Matters for America.” Media Matters, of course, the far-left extremist media guard dog. At the time the story, the push to get Rush Limbaugh off the air was presented as some sort of spontaneous combustion of rage ignited by his discussion of Fluke and her demands that the rest of us pay for her birth control. Rush’s advertisers were suddenly swamped with demands that they stop sponsoring his show - or so it seemed. Rush’s fans fought back and the whole thing was a bust....

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: "Neighbors of the Ebola patient in..." Have you heard this? I was wondering how long this was gonna take, and it's happened. The Reverend Jackson is on his way to Dallas. Grab audio sound bite number 14. Roger Staubach's daughter is a member of the Dallas City Council. Now, Dallas City Council elections are officially nonpartisan, but the neighbors of the Ebola patient feel discriminated against. That's the magic word: Discrimination. They feel discriminated against. That is sending up a flare. It's the equivalent of sending up a flare to the Monochrome Coalition and a request for...

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: Let me just cut to the chase here on the political correctness of this. Ebola, a killer virus, is political. We're in the process of having it politicized. The left politicizes everything. The Democrat Party politicizes everything. Everything is politicized. Now, I can imagine some of you are saying, "Come on, Rush! What in the hell are you talking about? Ebola, politicized?" Damn right it is. You know why? What does Ebola threaten right now? Don't say, "The American people and their health," 'cause that's not how it's being looked at. Ebola is threatening amnesty. Amnesty is...
