Morning Update: Critics Say...
It’s been so long since France has experienced robust economic growth that a generation of young citizens has never experienced it. And, if things keep going the way they’re going, they never will.

Have We Defeated Feminism?
RUSH: Now, let me ask you, ladies and gentlemen, who do you know that for 25, actually 28 years, but 25 on the national stage, has been pointing out the truth of militant left-wing feminism? It is I, El Rushbo. Could it be said that years of properly defining modern-era militant feminism has proven fruitful?
Peter King Rips Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio
RUSH: Cruz and Rubio both voted against the pork in the Hurricane Sandy relief bill. They didn't oppose the genuine, legitimate aid or the assistance. But, even so, Peter King said, "You guys have no business coming here and raising money." Who needs a Democrat Party to defeat us? We seem capable of doing that ourselves!
El Rushbo to the Palm Beach County Sheriff: I Don't Hate the Government
RUSH: The article quotes the sheriff as saying, quote, "We want people to call us if the guy down the street says he hates the government..." Now, I don't hate the government, but how many people...? (laughing) How many people are going to call the sheriff and report me?
"Benghazi was a Long Time Ago" -- But We Can Still Blame Everything on Bush?
RUSH: This is the modus operandi of the regime -- any Democrat regime, actually. You stonewall it for a few months, and then, after a few months go by, you say, "It's an old story." Didn't Watergate happen a long time ago? It still seems to be really relevant, Watergate.
Liberals Freak Out Over Prospect of Koch Brothers Buying the LA Times
RUSH: Half of the staff of the LA Times reportedly said they would quit if the Koch brothers bought the Los Angeles Times. When I heard that I said, "And the problem is? What?"
Dingy Harry: Obamacare Will Be a Train Wreck Unless We Spend More Money
RUSH: We need to spend even more money to properly implement this, and we need to do it tomorrow before people find out even more about what's in it.
Algore Goes on Global Warming Rant in Midst of Coldest Spring Since 1975
RUSH: Every time this guy goes public, a snowstorm happens, a cold wave hits. Twenty-degree wind chill in Oklahoma as the program starts, 39 degrees in Kansas. It's May the 2nd.
Obama Travels to Mexico to Drum Up More Illegal Immigration
RUSH: President Obama's headed to Mexico, folks, with a domestic ambition at the top of his travel agenda.
Democrat Mantra: Obama is No LBJ
RUSH: No matter what, wherever you go in the media, they're now comparing him to LBJ. They all are! It's just like "gravitas." They're all on this thing. Now, what do they love about LBJ? LBJ was a bully! LBJ "just knocked heads." He did whatever he had to do to get done whatever he wanted to get done. They call that "leadership," and they're looking at Obama as sort of wimpy. That's what all this means.... I'm telling you, they're upset, they're bugged, they're worried.
It's a Good Thing This Guy Wasn't on Tetracycline
RUSH: Yesterday we had the story that men, in the presence of women they find beautiful, attractive, literally wilt. They lose all rationality.
Caller: I Lost My Job Today
CALLER: I lost my job due to the health care reform, the thing that you've been warning everyone about.
Why Does Planned Parenthood Support the Morning-After Pill?
CALLER: Why is Planned Parenthood supporting the Plan B pill in the first place? Won't it cut down on abortions?









Part One: Democrats want to give free health care to illegal non-citizens. Part Two: Democrats want to allow non-citizens to sit on juries. Does anyone doubt that the Democrats’ Part Three will give non-citizens the right to vote?
RUSH: The three people arrested are friends of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.
RUSH: Just wondering, folks, if President Obama had a gay son, would he look like Jason Collins?
RUSH: Larry Flynt has decided he's gonna endorse Mark Sanford for Congress in South Carolina... You remember him. He fell in love with an Argentine babe and just lost it. He needed that antibiotic. He fits the bill of this story that I've got in the Stack... "Antibiotic Protects Men from Attractive Women."
RUSH: The left is in a tizzy over this guy. They don't like it. He's independent. He's bashing their censorship, which is what political correctness is. Political correctness is nothing but censorship of free speech, censorship of freedom of thought.
RUSH: 42% of the American people have no idea that there is a new health care law, no matter what it's called. They don't know it exists. Forty-two percent! Folks, if that's the case, repeal it! If 42% don't even know what it is, don't worry about who supports it. Just get the hell rid of it!
RUSH: A 15-year-old girl is able to walk into a pharmacy, ask for the morning-after pill without a prescription and get it. So the Democrats send somebody -- a feminist, political activist -- to talk about this with Dr. Alvarez. Dr. Alvarez was hot. He was over the top. We have three sound bites...
RUSH: I have this entire stack here today, folks, of reports on media people and other Democrats who are -- what's the correct way to say this? -- really, really concerned over Obama's press conference yesterday, his appearance, his demeanor, his detachment. And what was on display yesterday, that entire Obama press conference was the
RUSH: Remember, Mike Lee's a Tea Party candidate. He got rid of Robert Bennett. I had to laugh when some people said, "You know, he's coming for you, Rush! He thinks people like you are the problem." I don't think that's what he meant, 'cause I know the Heritage Foundation doesn't think I'm a problem.
RUSH: I am holding here in my formerly nicotine-stained fingers proof of a point that I made earlier in the week talking about culture and morality and the left. And I said to you that what really motivates the left is sticking it to us. 
We have two big unions pitted against each other, with a big school superintendent caught in the middle. The major sticking point: money from the federal government. Feeding the kids is a sideshow in this battle of wills.
RUSH: Is Barack Obama boring on purpose or is that just who he is? I think the Limbaugh Theorem was on display here... He's got nothing to do with whatever's happening.
RUSH: Why can't everybody just put your sexual preferences on Facebook and call it a day? What do we need to stop everything and have a national day of celebration, or mourning (depending on your point of view), or recognition or whatever about this?
RUSH: We had a guy from Chicago that was really mad at me because I
RUSH: Now, folks, I'm gonna step in it here. I could easily not say this and avoid a lot of trouble, but I'm gonna go ahead and say it. We're losing our language. Words mean things. The way we're defining "courage" is kind of curious to me. A pro basketball player announcing that he likes to have sex with other men, in my book, in a comparative sense, is not courageous, when compared, say, to a whistleblower trying to set the record straight about what happened in Benghazi.
RUSH: The staff on the other side of the glass is very concerned that the headline in about five minutes on every website in the world is gonna be: "Limbaugh: Rubio Naive on Immigration." In the first place, let me say at the outset that Senator Rubio and I are friends. We know each other and we communicate somewhat regularly. So these efforts that are underway or might be underway to drive a wedge between Senator Rubio and me simply will not work.
RUSH: I've toyed with the idea of going to the networks and saying, "I want to buy 30 minutes." I actually have. I've not pulled the trigger on it but I actually have, as a means of trying to reach people who don't listen to radio or who do but don't because of their preconceived, incorrectly formed, bigoted reasons.
RUSH: Isn't that the whole point of freedom? Isn't tolerance tolerating people that disagree with you? So Jason Collins comes out, and he's gay, and whoever publicly doesn't sign on to it has to be silenced, may be punished, fired, penalized. So there is no freedom with liberals.
