On Today’s Show…

Rush’s affiliates asked him to provide live commentary of the Obama inauguration. A school in Green Bay piped that coverage through their PA system (without permission, not that Rush would ever charge them) and yet somehow it’s all Rush’s fault. (Rush 24/7 Members: Listen Here)

» Chicago Tribune: Children Heard Limbaugh During Obama Event

Part One of Rush’s interview with Sean Hannity (transcript & video) aired last night on Fox News Channel. The second and final part airs tonight at 9 o’clock Eastern Time

Pearl of Wisdom: “Many people are interpreting my programs this week and last to be devoted to never-ending criticism of Obama. In truth, we’ve been attempting to poke fun at the media and cause people to stop and think about what their template has become: Obama is The Messiah, infallible and incapable of error. No human being walking the planet possesses those traits!”

Obama’s executive order to close Guantanamo Bay and release terrorists is about appeasing the left-wing base. It’s about putting politics over national security. (Rush 24/7 Members: Listen Here)

Families of 9/11 victims are outraged over Obama suspending the trials for Gitmo terrorists

Rush responds to the government attack on his thriving merchandising business at Club Gitmo by ordering a new line, logo, and slogan. “Club Gitmo: When America Was Safe.”

The Drive-By Media never vetted Obama. Now, they’re asking what America doesn’t know about him. We don’t know anything, ’cause journalists chose to “make history” rather than inform us.

Was Obama signing an executive order without knowing what it meant? He had to ask former Castro lawyer Greg Craig to explain it. Who’s in charge? (Rush 24/7 Members: Listen Here)

Americans patiently wait for The Messiah to bail them out. Folks, if you need something done, please don’t wait for some government bureaucrat to do it. (Rush 24/7 Members: Listen Here)

Pearl of Wisdom: “Dick Morris is assuming that the Republicans are going to remain for two years as they are now: basically invisible and not fighting Obama’s legislation. But amnesty and nationalized health care don’t have to happen. The Republicans have to fight some of this stuff, because Morris’ point is right. Even if the GOP wins big in 2010 after we’ve had this demographic shift of all these new Democrat voters and health care, what are they in charge of?”

Robert B. Reich says there should be stimulus for poor, women, and minorities, not white males

Rush’s broadcast partners wanted him to back the Ross Perot cult in ’92, but he refused to say things he didn’t believe. Now, it’s the audience urging Rush to pull his punches on President Obama. No.
