I don’t know. I’m just telling you, we have been, again, subjected to a gigantic, real life Netflix drama. This thing has been scripted, it has been choreographed, it has been rehearsed! It had an objective that failed. And this is the reason we’re learning all this. The objective was for Kavanaugh to withdraw. They thought that they would get Kavanaugh so intimidated and making him think that all of this was so futile that in order to spare himself this assault, he would withdraw his nomination.
Barring that, that Trump would withdraw it so as to spare him the embarrassment. They miscalculated both ways. So now we’ve had a procedural vote, we’re gonna have the real Senate confirmation vote tomorrow on a totally manufactured, written, and I’m sure it’s been tested, script, with the power players being same people, the FBI, Department of Justice, deep state who helped run the silent coup against the Trumpster. Back to the phones we go.
This is Joe in Cincinnati. It’s great to have you, sir. Hi.
CALLER: Rush, it’s an honor to speak with you. You’re a patriot, and I salute you.
RUSH: Thank you very much, sir. I appreciate that more than you know.
CALLER: I’ll be quick. I’m a military service member of 16 years. And after witnessing this Kavanaugh circus, my friends and family say, hey, you should run for political office. After this there’s no way, because being deployed several times, the standard for left would be to accuse me of war crimes. Now, Rush, being a military service member I’m not gonna present a problem without a solution. And here’s the solution.
After Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh gets settled in, he should file slander charges against Swetnick, Ramirez, Ford, and any other activist liberal slanderer or the new standard will be “guilty until proven innocent.†And I can tell you this right now: My military brothers and sisters have not fought and died for that sort of right for this country.
RUSH: (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word) right! That is exactly right. I don’t think Kavanaugh would be able to sue them. I don’t think that… Once you start getting into government, government officials and so forth… You get the First Amendment, which protects political speech. And you can produce an ad that says pretty much anything. And they can lie about whoever and whatever you want, and there’s not much you can do about it.
The remedy for that is more speech, which in this case equals more money to counter the lies that are being told. It’s a frustrating thing. It drives a lot of average people out of politics even to the point of not voting or not caring ’cause they think, “Why should I? I don’t know who’s telling me the truth. Probably nobody is. I can’t keep track of it anyway. It’s not worth the angst that it causes.†It causes a lot of people to tune out. But this is causing people to tune in.
I wish there were a remedy for this. ‘Cause it is all of what you said, slanderous and libelous. But there isn’t any recourse. You know, it’s the old song, success is the sweetest revenge.
