On Today’s Show…

President Obama met with big business leaders today in an attempt to convey a perception aimed at securing GOP support for his spending bill. Obama sounded like Reagan, but just days ago, he said “only government” could save us. Obama is in trouble, and he knows it. He’s desperate for GOP votes. Don’t fall for it! Obama’s plan is pure FDR. (Rush 24/7 Members: Listen Here)

Pearl of Wisdom: “Obama uses conservative language to sell his leftist agenda. Obama sounded Reaganesque today and it irritated me because we don’t have a Republican who will do that!”

A condensed version of Rush’s Obama-Limbaugh Bipartisan Stimulus Plan of 2009 is scheduled to run as an op-ed in tomorrow’s Wall Street Journal. (Read the Entire Plan)

Pearl of Wisdom: “I, El Rushbo — and I say this happily — have hijacked Obama’s honeymoon.”

Rep. Phil Gingrey (R-GA) calls to clear the air over comments attributed to him by Politico. The congressman said, “I regret those stupid comments.”

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee launched an e-mail petition against Rush.

Pearl of Wisdom: “I am greatly puzzled. Why would the Democrats petition against me if I am doing such terrible damage to the GOP?” (Rush 24/7 Members: Listen Here)

Congressman Eric Cantor (R-VA) calls to discuss the Obama Porkulus bill. It was just last month that Obama promised that this bill wouldn’t be full of pork. (Rush 24/7 Members: Listen Here)

The Drive-Bys have declared Rush the leader of the Republican Party.

Program Notes: Rush will do a phone interview with the gang on Fox & Friends tomorrow morning after 8:30AM, and Rush will be off next week for a long-planned vacation

Pearl of Wisdom: “This is an epic battle. Epic means long. It will be long and there’s nothing that’s going to happen next week because I’m gone. I’m sure they’ll try some things, but I will be available should there be an emergency.”
