Okay, just this once.
Transcripts from the Sept. 15th show.
Rush: So what we have here...here we have a guy who said that we're gonna get rid of politics as usual, gonna be unified. All the utopian stuff. And what do we get? Nothing but the continuing of the usual politics of fear, crisis, and panic. So now Obama says there are 153 bridges out there on the verge of collapse.....Listen to this one more time folks.
Obamas speech-"There are 153 structurally deficient bridges that need to be repaired.Four of them are near here on or around the beltway. Why would we wait to act until another bridge falls? " (Applause)
Rush: People are cheering this. Why would we have to wait for another bridge to fall? The question is, why didn't you fix these bridges with the first trillion dollars that you spent? But more importantly than that, shouldn't the Secretary of Transportation shut them down? If there are 153 bridges? Did he say here on the verge of collapse? No. A hundred fifty three "structurally deficient bridges" need to be repaired.
Where? We need to be told where these 153 bridges are because if he doesn't tell us, the regime...Obama....is holding drivers hostage. He's letting us drive over 153 bridges that could apparently fall and people could plummet to their deaths at any moment.
Name the bridges! You remember how they demanded specifics from Bush and Tom Ridge on terrorist threats because they accused those two guys of politicizing terror threats? Well here....the Bamster says he knows of 153 bridges that could fall down at any moment and four of them are "near the beltline in North Carolina". Four of them. Name 'em so that people can avoid them. It's his job to shut them down, not hold their repair hostage to passing his tax bill. If he's serious, 153 bridges are structurally deficient, and rather than fix them, he's holding the repair hostage and endangering the lives of people who drive on these bridges just so he can get his nonexistant bill passed.
Etc.
Doesn't sound a whole lot like what you heard, does it Mal? Yet I heard it. Heard it all the day it was broadcast. You've moved beyond the realm of "harmlessly ignorant" into the world of "big fat liar".
