Rush is right!

Average Protestors: Total Kook Wackos

On Monday, I rolled audio from that big anti-American protest in DC. “Anti-American protest? I didn’t hear about that” Maybe that’s because the press wrongly identified the protestors as “anti-war.” That's a misnomer, since no one wants war. No, these people are anti-American, anti-capitalism, anti-freedom and pro-dictatorship. They're retreads, or young people acting out an era – the 60s – that they missed.

I told you in Hour One on Monday that you could find signs and issues at this protest from the pro-choice crowd or the animal rights crowd. Sure enough, by Hour Two I had a Washington Post story in my formerly nicotine-stained fingers documenting signs on Roe v. Wade, legalizing pot, etc. Yet the mainstream press looks at these protests as nostalgia, and doesn't bring us an accurate picture of who attended the Bash America 2003 Festival.

Doing the job the mainstream press used to do at this rally: Dan Flynn of National Review. You can hear me read quotes from this great piece, where he recounts mingling with the protestors, in the audio link below. You had the usual comparisons of Bush to Hitler, and more creative pap like one man's insistence that Bush let 9/11 happen so he could “build a worldwide planetary death machine” in space. Some handed out pamphlets on the “right” of North Korea to have nukes. A phrase the mindless frequently mouthed compared 9/11 to breaking a fingernail. Read this article and listen to the audio. You need to know the truth, and laugh at these relics. They're more irrelevant today than ever.

Rush Limbaugh

"Did Rush really say that, or is it just something this mouse Stinson made up?"

The mouse is just repeating DNC talkie points. Rush Limbaugh would never say such a thing, although he most certainly would say their angst is perhaps more about being against President Bush than it is about Saddam's evil threat to our nation's security.

Just ask them if they had the same concerns in 1998 when Clinton was tossing off bombs hitting aspirin factories, empty tents and Serbia whenever he had to divert attention away from his own scandalous fiascos.
