BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: David in Norfolk, Virginia. Hello, sir. Welcome to the EIB Network.
CALLER: Hello, Rush. It's an honor to talk to you. Hello?
RUSH: Thank you, sir. Yes, I'm sure it is.
CALLER: Listen, I don't think our troops should not be prosecuted for the crimes like what they say, but I think Dick Durbin is right, we should not prosecute them. They should be the people who gave the orders like the commander-in-chief and Rumsfeld.
RUSH: Yeah, right.
CALLER: They're the ones responsible for these atrocities.
RUSH: Right, so we need to get rid of Rumsfeld, we need to impeach Bush, and give Durbin the Congressional Medal of Honor.
CALLER: They need to go to Hague, both of them.
RUSH: They need to go to The Hague? Oh, you want them to go to the international -- you want The Hague to try Bush and Rumsfeld?
CALLER: Sir, you don't believe in justice, only Americans should have -- I mean, why should we do special treatment? Now, how many people we killed in this war? How many innocent people died?
RUSH: Let me tell you something, David, the truth is that special treatment is what the prisoners at G'itmo are getting. They all still have their heads. None of them have been murdered, none of them have been car bombed. They are being given ample food. You cannot possibly be serious about this. How in the world can you see the world the way you do? I don't literally understand this. What's going on in G'itmo you want to send Rumsfeld and Bush to The Hague?
CALLER: Okay, how many people died for this war, for a lie? Bush lied to us.
RUSH: How many people died for a lie? Bush lied? Get off of that! Bush did not lie!
CALLER: What about the Downing Street memo?
RUSH: The Downing Street memo doesn't say anything and it may be a fake. It may be a forgery. The Downing Street memo -- I'll tell you what, if you read the whole thing the Downing Street memo will also tell you that the Brits were concerned about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
CALLER: Well, Bush didn't deny about the Downing Street -- he doesn't come out, he doesn't want to discuss it.
RUSH: Bush doesn't respond to this asinine little twerp stuff. He's got to run the country. CALLER: Do you know this man has a low IQ? George Bush.
RUSH: What must it be like to get up every day and be you, David? Do you ever laugh and smile? Are you a happy guy?
CALLER: Yeah, I'm a happy guy, but I think this country is going in a wrong direction. You know, we destroy the environment and you don't want to believe that.
RUSH: Here we go, here we go. Why don't you just run through the whole left win liberal litany here?
CALLER: Don't you think we are running out of energy and oil and --
RUSH: No. We're not running out of energy. We're not running out of oil. You haven't been right in one syllable that you've uttered since you've got on this program. You haven't been right.
CALLER: You don't believe in science, okay. You believe in the Americans --
RUSH: Why do you want to go through life being as wrong as you are? I'm looking for some serious help here. What is it that makes you happy being so wrong?
CALLER: Did you know what Karl Marx said? He said this. Religion is the opium of the masses. Isn't that true, or not?
RUSH: David, what do you do for a living?
CALLER: I'm a medical doctor, but do you know that --
RUSH: No, no, no, no, no. Ah, ah, ah -- Wait a minute. Who pays you?
CALLER: The patients.
RUSH: The patients.
CALLER: Yeah.
RUSH: No they don't, not anymore.
CALLER: Yes.
RUSH: Government pays you. Insurance companies pay you.
CALLER: No.
RUSH: Just like Karl Marx would have wanted.
CALLER: I do a lot of free work, too, you know.
RUSH: Oh, you do a lot of pro bono work.
CALLER: Right.
RUSH: Well, Marx would love that.
CALLER: Yes. Anyway, Karl Marx said that, you know, the hijackers were on opium, aren't they? And we have the American Taliban, all the religious fanatics.
RUSH: Hold it, hold it, wait a second. Wait a minute. Karl Marx said that the hijackers were on opium?
CALLER: No, the religion is the opium of the masses. Do you agree that, or not? You see those hijackers, what are they on? They were on opium.
RUSH: I'm having trouble understanding you. Oh, religion is the opiate of the masses.
CALLER: Yeah, because they think allies are going to protect them and they kill themselves.
RUSH: Here comes the anti-Christian screed now. David, do you believe in God?
CALLER: No.
RUSH: You don't? CALLER: Can I prove it to you there's no God? In one minute I'll prove it to you.
RUSH: You can't prove there's no God.
CALLER: Yeah, I can prove it.
RUSH: No, you can't.
CALLER: If I was God, I would not create a human being who has (unintelligible) he will be making crap.
RUSH: How did you ever get through med school? You can't think beyond the end of your hands.
CALLER: Wait a minute, do you believe that God created all the crap inside you? Why would a woman have to have a period every month? I would have said, "No, God can't do anything-–"
RUSH: I so much believe in God, that when people like you get to heaven I think that you will crap.
CALLER: You are the American Taliban. (Laughing.)
RUSH: (Laughing.)
CALLER: You are the American Taliban. (Laughing.)
RUSH: Where are you from, David? Well, I live here in the United States.
RUSH: I know, but where are you from?
CALLER: I was born in Sri Lanka.
RUSH: You were born in Sri Lanka?
CALLER: Yeah.
RUSH: Okay, why did you come here? This place is -- the opiate of the masses is destroying the country, polluting -- why did you come here?
CALLER: I came for adventure.
RUSH: You came for adventure?
CALLER: To see the world.
RUSH: To see the world. And you've seen the world, and you've determined this is the most rotten place on it?
CALLER: No, I want to change it, I want to make it better for everybody, I want to protect the environment, I want to protect the --
RUSH: And you want to do this by letting the bad guys out of G'itmo? You want Bush and Cheney to be put on trial in The Hague, you want us to be punished for global warming and environmental destruction. What you want is the destruction of this country as it exists today.
CALLER: Don't you think we went to war for Halliburton, don't you agree?
RUSH: Do you believe this? (laughing.)
CALLER: Why isn't Dick Cheney afraid to show his --
RUSH: I cannot believe --
CALLER: In Enron before --
RUSH: I can't believe you got out of medical school. You don't believe in God, you think you can prove it by versus of the existence of crap, you now think that the war was for oil in Halliburton. This is -- this is -- this is --
CALLER: Isn't Enron the biggest contributor --
RUSH: Are you actually a comedian? Enron, you think it's Enron? Enron's biggest politician they contributed to was Bill Clinton.
CALLER: Oh, there is a movie out called Enron. You should see that. It's playing in a theater in Norfolk. You been to Norfolk?
RUSH: Yeah, did you see that movie on global warming, what was the name -- did you see the movie, The Day After?
CALLER: No I didn't see. I heard about that. I saw Fahrenheit 911.
RUSH: You ought to see that, because if you believe movies are true, you might be happy for once if you came out of the theater having watched that movie. Your historical perspective is based on the movies. If you haven't seen that then you're missing out on a lot.
CALLER: So why doesn't George Bush come out and discuss these Downing Street memo?
RUSH: Because there's nothing to discuss. George Bush, the president is not going to respond to a bunch of little Chihuahuas like you yapping at his heels over something that you are totally making up. Now, folks, you understand why intellectually I can't follow these people. This guy is a doctor. This guy is a doctor. He's living in the greatest country in the world, wants to destroy it and tear it apart, he's here for adventure. This is inexplicable. This makes me worried to go to the doctor ever again.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: A sincere thanks to David in Norfolk, Virginia, our last caller. There you have it, folks. I've been telling you this is who the Democratic Party is, and he's not some elected official. He's an upper middle class doctor paid by his patients, he thinks, and he's just out there in Norfolk, mainstream Democratic Party. And you heard it, you heard it.
Now, look, Howard Dean's a doctor. This guy is a doctor. MoveOn.org I think has been around a lot longer than we know, folks, and they're running medical schools as well. We thought we had problems with the lawyers, now we gotta add doctors to it. Now, we also know that the Paint the Nation Blue fund-raiser tomorrow night featuring Dr. Dean and Dick Durbin, remember what they said they're going to present tomorrow night, their positive message and they're going to be attacking Republican propaganda. I'm wondering if what we heard from David in Norfolk who we are very appreciative of his time and his call, is that an example of the positive message the Democrats are going to hear tomorrow night, string up Bush and Rumsfeld at The Hague, Enron, Halliburton, oil, global warming. (Laughing.) You think we make this up about who these people are, but we don't.
END TRANSCRIPT
Now this was a great call. It is even greater with the audio.
I heard this call and was astounded. A learned individual like a doctor can't possibly be this misinformed. It had to be a setup.
... "Don't you agree with Karl Marx, that religion is the opiate of the masses? ... God doesn't exist. I can prove it to you in one minute ... "
Ping
I only caught the tail end yesterday, but it sounded like yet another head-in-arse Leftist: war, lies, Halliburton, Enron, environment, blah, blah, blah The same election-winning tales Kerry ran on.
Maybe. But my doctor is beginning to vote democratic for very liberal reasons. And no, I'm not going to change doctors. He's still the very best diagnostician I've ever known. But the most intelligent people can get fooled.
Upon further reflection, there is no way this was a real call.
Wow.
It's not just Rush, either, every show I listen to, be it Hannity, Laura, Beck, the local shows on KSFO in San Francisco, these whack jobs are coming out of the woodwork, they call and snivel and babble and come up with the most looney ideas - it's making Art Bell's show look like the straight news!
Has any other culture or country had a large segment of it's population come unhinged like this before?
A mohamaden doctor who went to med school in Sri Lanka. I like how he called himself "David"!!
I didn't know Dick Durbin was a doctor...or was born in Ceylon...
Why Limbaugh let him waste so much airtime is beyond me.
I almost barfed listening to this...
Using his own criteria, any patient of his who dies should/could be blamed on him, regardless of the circumstances.
I'm betting he wouldn't agree with that.
My favorite when it comes to dealing with moonbats is Michael Medved, because he slices and dices them.
LOL, I have been Rush deprived for the entire school year. What a way to begin summer vacation..
Oh my goodness that was funny!!!!
