NEWS

o       Paul Harvey received a letter from someone who pointed
out that when Al Gore appeared on Larry King Live recently, Gore
took a phone call from his wife, Tipper, and didn't even
recognize her voice. The letter writer wonders what kind of media
circus would have erupted had Dan Quayle done something similar.

o       Today's Los Angeles Times has an interview with Rush
about his TV show. Near the end of the article he provides a
glimpse at how he will run his show: "The purpose of a call is to
make me look good. This is not the First Amendment here. There's
no right to be boring on my show. This is a benevolent
dictatorship."

MORNING UPDATE

"Sweet justice, sweet, sweet justice," states Rush. Earth First,
which has put spikes in trees so as to destroy logging equipment
and perhaps injure workers, has finally had a taste of its own
medicine. Earth First wanted to hold a "Round River Rendezvous"
on national forest land near Durango, CO. However, the Stone
Forest Industry logging company filed a protest against the
meeting, claiming that an environmental impact study would be
needed before the group can have its camp out.

Rush says that "it's about time this kind of stuff happened." In
their challenge to Earth First, the Stone Forest petition said
that the impact study must address important environmental
concerns such as inadequate sanitation, fire dangers, and the
lack of protection for sensitive animal and plant species in the
area.

Earth First is "distraught, stunned, and dismayed" by this turn
of events. The Earth First member who filed for the camping
permit said "they're coming down on us because of who we are. All
we're doing is having a camp out." In actuality, though, Earth
First is having no mere camp out, but a rally at which they will
plan the continued destruction of the American logging industry.

The logging industry has finally stood up to these environmental
wackos, and is putting them through what Earth First has done to
so many others. "Way to go, Stone Forest Industries," Rush says
applaudingly, "I commend you for your sensitivity."

FIRST HOUR

Items

o       "Anthony Lo Bianco" has received a gift from a fan - "The
Healthy Meat-Eater's Cookbook."

o       History is repeating itself for Rush - he is hearing from
a lot of people that he talks about politics too much. Rush
wonders when he's finally going to figure out how to host a radio
talk show - he's been at this gig for four years, and still
hasn't found a winning formula, at least according to some
people.

Rush reminds people that his show talks about whatever is current
and whatever is hot. His show is event-driven, and if events are
in the political realm then so be it. Rush has to laugh because
he heard these complaints right after he spent half a show
talking about baseball.

Rush states that he follows his instincts - he does listen to
criticism, but rarely pays attention to it anymore.

o       Some London researchers are claiming that pollution
causes a 50% drop in men's sperm counts. Rush wonders how this
can be - he didn't read anything about this in Al Gore's book, so
how could it be true?

o       Bo Snerdley had to borrow a tie from Rush so he could
attend the coat-and-tie party being held after the show today to
celebrate Rush's TV debut. Bo is proud of the tie he's scammed
from Rush because it has an "African motif." Rush comments that
Bo looks mighty fine in his blue suit and tie.

o       Rush attended a dinner held by the Courtland Group last
night, and William F. Buckley was also there. The main feature of
the dinner was a roundtable discussion moderated by Charles
Ogletree of Harvard, who served as Anita Hill's counsel during
the Clarence Thomas hearings. Margaret Carlson of Time magazine
and former NYC mayor ED Koch were also present.

The theme of the roundtable discussion was politics and the
Presidential election. Rush was surprised that he and Buckley
were actually hissed by a sizeable segment of the audience, which
seemed to have a lot of liberals, especially feminists.

One of the questions asked of the participants was how they would
feel if they woke up to discover a Clinton Presidency. William F.
Buckley said he would be faced with a "gloomy melancholy for the
next four years. I doubt if I could write anything." This, of
course, produced a huge hiss from the feminists and liberals in
the audience.

Margaret Carlson talked about how divisive the Republican
convention was, and she mentioned how Pat Robertson talked about
feminists, witchcraft, and lesbians. Rush spoke up to defend
Robertson and to point out that he never said anything of the
sort during the Republican convention. Robertson, in fact, never
made such statements, but was only quoting from feminist
documents. However, the liberal media, as usual, misquotes
conservatives and misreports what they say.

For example, a New York paper had the headline "Robertson
ridiculed for linking feminism with witchcraft." However, what is
being referred to here is a letter that Robertson mailed out to
members of his congregation. Roberton's actual letter says the
following:

"Consider this shocking statement from the `Declaration of
Feminism' of 1971: `The end of the institution of marriage is a
necessary condition for the liberation of women. We must go back
to ancient female religions like witchcraft.' "

Thus, Robertson was not linking feminism with witchcraft; all he
did was quote the feminists' own founding documents. Rush picks
up the ultimate reference work on this topic - his own book,
which is so much in demand that it went into re-orders even
before its official release date.

Rush turns to the chapter on feminism and he states "according to
me, `many feminist leaders are humorless, militant, pugnacious,
and very unhappy people who do not want to equalize the status of
women, but instead want to irreversibly alienate women from men
and vice versa." Rush knows this sounds extreme, but to
illustrate what extreme really means, he quotes Sheila Cronen, a
feminist leader and spokeswoman:

"Since marriage constitutes slavery for women, it is clear that
the women's movement must concentrate on attacking marriage.
Freedom for women cannot be without the abolition of marriage."

The January, 1988 National Organization for Women Times echoes
this sentiment by saying:

"The simple fact is every women must be willing to be recognized
as a lesbian to be fully feminine."

Rush points out that he doesn't make this stuff up, nor does Pat
Robertson. Yet a respected reporter for Time magazine feels that
she can totally misrepresent what Robertson said, and ignore the
fact that he was only quoting the feminists themselves.

Rush told the audience last night that he didn't understand a
number of other things about women and feminist issues. Ogletree
said that Rush should not confuse "women's issues" with "feminist
issues," but Rush said that they are the same thing.

1992 is supposed to be the Year of the Woman, but it obviously is
the Year of the Liberal Woman as far as the feminists and media
are concerned. If having women in Congress was so important then
Paul Simon and Bill Bradley should have surrendered their Senate
seats in 1990 to their Republican female opponents.

Rush said that he didn't understand what Carol Moseley Braun was
talking about when she said that women were needed in the
government so that they could "nurture the economy back to
health." A feminist shouted "that's right - women have more
common sense than men." Rush didn't use his line "what's Braun
going to do - breast-feed the economy back to health?" which
disappointed Buckley.

o       Going back to Pat Robertson, the Christian Coalition is
having a meeting today, and they claim Rush is supposedly going
to be there. However, Rush never made any commitments to be
there, especially since it would have been impossible for him to
make the meeting and do his show, too.

o       Dan Quayle has been teasing the NY Times for misspelling
his name as "Quale." The Vice President says "if they're going to
insist I spell `potato' correctly, they should at least spell my
name correctly." Rush adds "yup."

*BREAK*

Since Rush is on the subject of feminism, he plays his Feminazi
Trading Card commercial:

<<Female voice>> I'll give you two Gloria Steinems for one Anita
Hill.

<<Announcer who's been doing too many Monster Truck and rodeo
commercials>> Trading cards have always been for males only. It's
just not fair, it's not right.

<<Female>> Damn, I spilled nail polish on my Betty Friedan.

<<Announcer>> Well, EIB is proud to introduce Feminazi Trading
Cards for you to save, to collect, to trade. Feminazi cards are
designed for the woman in mind. On the front, an action shot of a
leading feminist - burning a bra, dominating a TV show, picketing
an all-men's club, protesting a Rush Limbaugh concert, charging
into a men's locker room, denouncing Ronald Reagan.

<<Female>> I'll do anything for a Pat Schroeder.

<<Announcer>> On the back, all the vital statistics - bustline,
waist, hips, the documented age, the number of abortions, and
where applicable, the alimony payments and divorce settlements.
Each bio has at least one profound thought, and a beauty secret.
Get them all!

Each set includes not only today's feminazi superstars like Molly
Yard and Eleanor Smeal, but yesterday's heroes like Bella Abzug
and Gloria Steinem. Plus, outstanding rookies like Anita Hill and
Judge Hoerchner. Don't get left out, start collecting Feminazi
Trading Cards today!

He follows this up with a promo for EIB's new horror movie:

<<ominous, scary music starts>>

<<Announcer>> Coming soon to a theater near you . . . the story
of a future too horrible to imagine until now! The most
frightening spectacle to hit this country since the Carter
Presidency. Hillary Clinton seemed simple and unassuming, until
she moved into the White House. Then she became a maniacal,
power-hungry psycho, in "Single White Female."

<<Hillary>> You said the "F-word" - Family values! Go to your
room, Willie!

<<Announcer>> Bill Clinton's advisers tried to shut her up, but
once she moved in, it was all over!

<<Hillary>> Willie, come here! <<whimpering sounds>> Sit!
<<panting sounds>> Now go fetch my paper! Good, Willie!

<<Announcer>> There's a stranger in the house, and she's running
the show!

<<Hillary>> You made a cabinet appointment without asking me?!?
Who's in charge around here?!

<<Announcer>> Hillary Clinton is holding her husband and the
entire country hostage in "Single White Female."

<<Hillary>> Smell the glove, Willie!

<<Announcer>> She's married to Bill Clinton, but she has the
ability to cause more damage than any single woman in history.

<<Hillary>> Now let's see that State of the Union address.

<<Announcer>> This is one nightmare you may not be able to wake
up from. Coming soon from a theater near you!

*BREAK*

Phone   Frank from Staten Island, NY

Frank understands Rush's position on the family leave bill, but
he asks if Rush has the option of leaving for three months. Rush
says "of course not," even though EIB is expected to have more
than 50 employees within a year or so, and thus would have to
comply with the family leave bill if it became law. If Rush,
though, took three months off, he would lose affiliates right and
left. What bothers Rush is that this bill is part of a trend that
makes people more concerned about the benefits they are going to
get rather than about the work they are supposed to be doing.

Frank wonders what people are supposed to do in emergencies. Rush
says that he doubts that many people in Florida will be fired
because they are taking time off to recover from the hurricane.
Granted some jobs may be lost because of the destruction, but
Rush doesn't think that any Florida employer will fire anyone
because they didn't show up to work the day after Hurricane
Andrew hit.

Rush's father died about a year ago, and he took three days off
for the funeral. He suspects that most employers would be willing
to meet their employees' needs in this regard. However, he is
opposed to the ever-increasing intrusion of the government into
the people's day to day activities.

Frank says that the current Republican administration doesn't do
anything well except to make war and to force people to say
prayers in school. Rush wonders how many prayers Frank and his
children had to say in school. Frank says that he went to a
Catholic school, which proves Rush's point - it was the private
school that sponsored the prayer, not the federal government.
Frank, though, thinks that if Republicans had their way, they
would be forcing school kids nationwide to pray daily.

Rush says that this is not true - all Republicans want is to
allow children the opportunity to pray if they want. As to making
war, it is a good thing that Republicans were in office for the
Gulf War since the most recent Democratic record includes only
the Vietnam War. Americans should be grateful that they had Bush
in the White House for the Gulf War.

Rush bets that Frank is a journalist, but he says no, he's an
independent who would have voted for Ross Perot given the chance.
Rush says that Frank can still vote for Perot since his name is
on the ballot, but Frank says that he won't vote for Perot
because that would waste his vote. Rush asks him if he would like
to see Bush defeated, and Frank says that he would. Rush points
out that Frank can help defeat Bush by voting for Perot, and thus
his wouldn't be a wasted vote.

Rush thanks Frank for calling, and refers to Marilyn Quayle's
column in today's NY Times about how she now knows why
politicians speak in cliches. She says that her speech at the
Republican convention was so distorted, misstated, and
misrepresented that she felt she had to write a column about it.

Phone   Dan from Clearwater, FL

Dan thinks that the easiest way for Bush to win the election
would be to tell Clinton "you know, Bill, that Oval Office of
ours - it's got a draft." Dan thinks that Clinton would then
hightail it off to Canada. Rush hates to burst Dan's bubble, but
he got a letter from someone on CompuServe who said that the best
way to defeat Clinton is to "draft him for the Presidency."

Rush comments that this is what happens when he is so good that
he makes what he does look easy - everyone then thinks that they
can do it themselves.

*BREAK*

Phone   Jerry from Parma, OH

Jerry thinks that Republicans should replay the tape of Bill and
Hillary Clinton's appearance on 60 Minutes during which they
denied the allegations of an affair with Gennifer Flowers.
Hillary arrogantly said at the time that "if people want to
believe it, they shouldn't vote for him." Jerry thinks that this
tape would show Hillary as she really is and not as the Democrats
have tried to present her - as a "sweet, demure woman."

Rush says that Republicans are trying to show Hillary for what
she is, but in slightly different ways. Margaret Carson last
night mentioned that the Republicans have made an issue out of
Hillary Clinton, and Rush corrected her by pointing out that the
only one who has made an issue out of Hillary is Hillary herself.
In an interview in Vanity Fair Hillary said that she would have
an "unprecedented partnership" with her husband if he gets
elected. However, if Republicans dare to tell the truth about
"Clinton, Clinton, and Gore," the press and Democrats start
complaining about "sleaze campaigning."

Rush comments that the Sacramento Bee had a story yesterday about
how his book is selling out all over the country. One bookstore
owner said "this book is selling better than ice water in hell."
Another bookstore owner, though, complained "it's not enough that
people buy this book, but they have to tell me how great a guy he
is."

Rush notices that EIB producer Johnny Donovan has walked into the
studio, and asks him to find the call from a week or so ago in
which a listener asked why Rush never impersonated Bill Clinton.
With only 5 seconds left in the show, Rush had time only to make
kissing and moaning sounds. He suggests to Donovan that a promo
could be made of that call.

*BREAK*

Doug Rice and his Cutting Edge band have sent in a new rap tune
as a sequel to their "Dittos, Rush" rap. The new tune is a take-
off of Sir Mixalot's "Baby Got Back" which was number one on the
charts for several weeks. Like Sir Mixalot's tune, this one also
starts off with a woman talking, and Rush plays the song "Willie
Go Back":

<<Note: my recording of this got garbled, so there are some gaps,
and the transcription may not be exactly accurate>>

<<Valley girl>> Oh . . . my . . . gawd! Becky, look at Bill
Clinton - he's such a flake, and like Hillary is such a power-
hungry psycho. Where is he from anyway, like Arkansas or
something? I wish he would just go back!

<<Rap begins>>

Go home, Slick Willie, and hear me soon! You folks ain't got a
clue,

Blow your sax, Billie Boy, find some skirts to chase,

You're the man I love to hate!

Don't want no of that liberal junk because you know that junk is
bunk!

You say you <<missing>> thinner, pandering to be the winner,

Slick Willie, take your wife home with ya, she'll probably hit
ya.

Your draft excuse was phony, and your dang bus tour is really
corny.

Slick Willie Clinton, the left-wing media's friend,

Hey, Willie, Willie, your platform's just plain silly.

Smoked a pipe, didn't inhale, but your love taste sure is
<<missing>>.

In the red to get ahead, jump around from bed to bed.

Hillary's feminazi queen, captain of the bimbo team,

<<missing>> Thomas Jefferson - Not! Slick Willie, Slick Willie,
go back!

So fellahs, fellahs, wanna send Slick Willie back? Hell yeah!

To Little Rock, to Little Rock, Little Rock Arkansas.

Willie, go back!

Rush adds that there is a second verse, which EIB might play some
day.

Phone   Kevin from Los Angeles, CA

Kevin asks Rush what question he would ask Al Gore in an effort
to blow his credibility out of the water. Rush says that this is
a "toughie" because Gore's book provides so many opportunities
for destroying his credibility. Rush could ask Gore if he really
thinks that the automobile is more of a threat to mankind than
nuclear weapons. Gore also said that there was an "ozone hole
over Kennebunkport" back in February, even though it has been
shown that North America has never experienced any kind of "ozone
holes." Rush would ask Gore how a prominent Senator in the US
Congress can make such blatant misstatements that have no basis
in fact. Gore's book is a "gold mine for that type of thing."

*BREAK*

SECOND HOUR

Rush has been intending to talk about the Washington Heights
issue this week, but hasn't gotten around to it until now. First,
though, he wants to repeat some of the background information
that he's given on previous shows. The town San Francisco de
Macoras in the Dominican Republican is a small town that has
little crime or poverty because of the large number of drug
dealers and former drug dealers who live there.

Outside of the city are two "suburbs" - Manhattan and the Bronx -
in which young men are trained in how to sell drugs in New York
City and its environs. Once they are judged to have learned
enough, they are sent to the US as immigrants who "are seeking a
better life." Their real purpose, though, is to sell as many
drugs as they can for two or three years, after which they can
return to the Dominican Republic and retire in relative luxury.

Jose Kiko Garcia, 25, was one such man, but he was killed by a
police officer in Washington Heights on July 3. Washington
Heights used to be a well-kept middle class neighborhood, but now
is saturated with drug dealers' warrens, which help keep the
area's murder rate at 200 deaths a year.

After Garcia was killed by NYC cop Michael O'Keefe, two sisters
said they were witnesses to Garcia's shooting, and they claimed
that Garcia was unarmed and shot in the back in cold blood by a
racist cop. This event occurred within two months of the Los
Angeles riots, and thus violence broke out in the area.

The NYC press gave full credence to the two witnesses and played
up the shooting as the murder of an innocent man by a cop who
typified the racist nature of the police force. The Washington
Heights riots, though, were quelled by a massive use of force by
the police, and another immigrant from the Dominican Republic
died after he was allegedly pushed from the roof by more racist
cops. This, too, was later shown to be a false report.

For days, the NYC papers continued to cover this situation as
nothing more than another example of racism and police brutality.
Mayor David Dinkins sided with Garcia's family, and invited them
to the mayoral mansion; Dinkins also paid for Garcia's funeral
and had American Airlines fly the body back to the Dominican
Republic free of charge.

Mike McAlary of the NY Post told Rush that this was a "good
shoot"; i.e. the officer's actions were justified, and McAlary
was confident that when the story was fully told, it would be
showed that Garcia was high on drugs, violating parole, and
carrying a .357 magnum revolver. Rush asked him why this news
wasn't in the paper and McAlary replied that the press just
assumed that the witnesses were telling the truth. This used to
be the case in journalism - witnesses never lied, but now the
drug culture has changed this as well.

A grand jury was impaneled to investigate the shooting, and word
leaked out this week that they found no evidence of wrong-doing
and would not indict the police officer. The NY Post reported
this, and attention was focused on the Washington Heights area
where people demanded "justice."

However, the simple fact of the matter is that Jose Kiko Garcia
was sent to the US for one reason only - to sell as many drugs as
possible by turning his Washington Heights neighbors into
addicts. If Garcia had lasted for three years, he would have
returned home to a life of luxury. Garcia knew full well that he
was risking his life, and he lost his bet.

Mayor Dinkins is now denying that he chose sides during this
affair, yet it is clear that he tried to stave off violence by
siding with Garcia's family. This, of course, did not make the
cops feel as if Dinkins trusted them or had any confidence in
them. The grand jury, though, came to the conclusion that Officer
O'Keefe acted properly - he shot a man who was aiming a .357 at
him.

Interestingly enough, the lack of an indictment did not lead to
riots. Perhaps the reason for this is that the police arrested 8
men on Wednesday night; these men did not live in the area, but
came into the neighborhood to make trouble. The people who lived
in Washington Heights stayed calm because the drug dealers run
the neighborhood, and they realized that if riots occurred, the
area would be saturated with more cops. Thus, the economics of
drug dealing prevailed, and nobody rioted because that would have
meant the drug dealers would have had to stop selling their
wares.

The Police Benevolent Association is now running radio
commercials that give these facts, and they are very critical of
how Dinkins handled the situation. Mayor Dinkins responded last
night by going to the 34th Precinct to tell the police officers
that "if you don't think I'm on the right side of this issue and
support you, then that's just bulls**t."

The bottom line of all this is that the police have a difficult
job to do in this country, and it's a job that few Americans
would be willing to do. How many people would be willing to place
their lives on the line every day, especially in someplace like
New York City? And then when the police do their jobs, neither
the city officials nor the press believes them, and officers may
find that their careers are ruined.

Mike McAlary has the definitive column on this issue in today's
NY Post. Rush hopes that people when they read about this
remember how there are two training camps for drug dealers in the
Dominican Republic. These camps try to portray their drug dealer
trainees as poor, unfortunate immigrants who are only looking for
a better life. And charges of racism get thrown around so much
that it's getting difficult to pursue criminals who have dark
skin.

If anyone is still wondering why family values and traditional
morality are issues in this election, they should remember this
situation and how the mayor of New York City sided with a drug
dealer's family, and used public moneys to pay for this
criminal's funeral and postmortem deportation.

*BREAK*

Phone   Skip from Jersey City, NJ

Skip thinks that New Jersey is an example of what will happen if
Clinton becomes President. Governor Florio, like Clinton, has
never had a job in the private sector, and the first thing he did
when he got elected was to raise taxes $2.6 billion so that he
could "pay off his political debts." Skip fears that Clinton will
do the exact same thing, but nation-wide. Skip is convinced that
Clinton has "Florio-itis" and that if elected he will infect the
entire country with New Jersey's 10% unemployment and declining
job base.

Rush says that the only difference between Clinton and Florio is
that before he was elected, Florio said that he "didn't think" he
would have to raise taxes, while Clinton is even now proudly
proclaiming his plans to raise taxes. Rush holds Skip through the
break.

*BREAK*

Tony Lo Bianco has put another picture on his Wall of Fame - this
one is of him with Howard Cosell. Rush wonders how Lo Bianco
managed to get a photo of the irascible Cosell, and Lo Bianco
replies that he was working in the mail room at the time and was
delivering a package. Rush marvels at how Lo Bianco has climbed
from the lowly mailroom to the prestigious position of fill-in
broadcast engineer for EIB.

Phone   Skip from Jersey City, NJ (continued)

Skip doesn't think that there would be any discussion of family
values or the domestic situation today if Bush hadn't acted as
forcibly as he did with Iraq's invasion of Kuwait. Instead, the
election would be about gas lines and rationing, about a
shortened work week, and about a protracted ground war in the
Middle East which would include Israel. Thus, Skip thinks people
ought to remember this the next time they hear the liberal media
talk about how bad the US economy is.

Rush praises Skip for superbly making this point. Skip admits
that he has a somewhat gloomy view of the New Jersey economy
since so much manufacturing has left the area, and since the
prices of housing are falling. Rush says that there are two sides
to falling prices - people buying new houses benefit, while those
who are paying off high interest loans are suffering.

Thomas De Lorenzo, professor of economics at Loyola College in
Baltimore, wrote a piece that appeared in yesterday's Wall Street
Journal; it profiled Clinton's primary economic advisor, Derek
Shearer. Shearer attended Oxford with Clinton, and Rush reads
some excerpts from the column which shows how truly liberal Bill
Clinton and Al Gore are. Rush comments that when he made this
claim at the dinner last night, the feminists really started
hissing him. Going off on a tangent Rush wonders where this sort
of intense hissing started, and Bo Snerdley tells him "early
Egypt, of course."

Returning to the WSJ column, Rush reads what De Lorenzo has to
say about Derek Shearer. He prefaces the remarks by pointing out
that Shearer is a good friend of Tom Hayden, and the two men
organized the 1980 and 1981 campaign for rent control in Santa
Monica.

"Mr. Shearer explained in a [leftist] weekly, "These Times"
recently - he said `although the phrase economic democracy sounds
innocuous, it is a kind of euphemism. Socialism has a bad name in
America but socialism is what we need, but we can't call it that.
We have found that in the greatest tradition of American
advertising that "economic democracy" is what sells. You can take
that door to door like Fuller brushes and the door will not be
jammed in your face.'

"Mr. Shearer explained recently in Santa Monica that housing is a
basic human right that comes before the need to profit. He says
the hope in Santa Monica was they were establishing what he
called there `Left City,' . . . . He said `America is a
profoundly unequal country,' and to rectify this state of
affairs, the Campaign for Economic Democracy [an organization
founded by Tom Hayden] was recommending a radical redistribution
of the wealth in Santa Monica. The hope was to use the power of
the government to control all the wealth of the city.

"[Shearer said] `Corporations are too impersonal and powerful,
and the strategy to achieve economic democracy must start by
dismantling or at least restricting the power of these
corporations.' "

Rush points out that by Shearer's own admission the term
"economic democracy" is just another word for "socialism," just
like Clinton uses "investing" to mean "tax and spend." Skip
wonders if De Lorenzo was quoting Karl Marx or Derek Shearer. He
says that the reason there is no housing in the inner cities is
that rent controls have destroyed any incentive to own and
maintain inner city housing.

Rush adds that Shearer wrote a book, "Economic Democracy," in
1983, and Skip hopes that this is enough reason for people not to
vote for Clinton. Rush says that a chapter in Shearer's book
calls for government control of investment. In his chapter on `a
new social contract,' Shearer writes:

"Dozens of newly created government enterprises are the
cornerstone of our new social contract under which private
businesses will be guided by new rules of behavior enforced by
regional and local government planning agencies. Other ideas
include a well-planned expansion of the public sector, creation
of a national planning agency, and implementation of Ralph
Nader's corporate democracy agenda according to which
corporations would be required to submit a `social balance sheet'
to regulators each year."

Skip is amazed that the mayor of Moscow is more conservative and
more pro-business than the mayors of New York and Boston. Rush
comments that he quotes the mayor of Moscow in his book as saying
that if it weren't for the example of Ronald Reagan, Russia would
have no idea about how to establish a viable economy. Skip
comments that he will be meeting with the Moscow mayor soon.

Skip wants to know if he could get a copy of Rush's book, and
Rush says that not only will he send Skip a book, but he will
send him the very book that he's been using in today's show as a
sourcebook and reference work. Rush writes "To Skip, a great
caller. My best, Rush Limbaugh." Skip is deeply moved.

Hollywood is experiencing an "ethical controversy" over whether
or not a movie should be made about Jeffrey Dahmer and his
cannibalistic crimes. A made for TV movie, "Jeffrey Dahmer's
Secret Life" has already been filmed, and the producers are
trying to sell the movie to a TV network.

The director has tried to calm the families of Dahmer's victims
by saying "the story is told in a very tasteful manner." While
Rush is thinking about the incongruity of this remark, the EIB
staff asks him if he would give "an arm and a leg" to see the
movie. Rush replies "no. Stop it with these insensitive and cruel
comments!" He remarks this is just one more reason why he hasn't
wired his staff for sound.

Phone   Bill from Pitman, PA

Bill points out that the military and President handled the news
media very well during the Gulf War, and he suspects that the
current bias against Bush is the media "getting back." Rush says
that a number of people have also advanced this theory, believing
that although there is no "conspiracy," there is some sense of
"unified purpose" which leads the media to attack Bush.

One of the moderators at the conference last night asked the
question "why is the press so anxious to elect Clinton?" Somebody
responded "that they see the need for change." Rush asked where
in the journalism handbook is there any requirement for "change"
- why do journalism schools encourage their students to "make the
world a better place"?

Journalists, though, seem to think that their mission is not to
chronicle events, but "to make a difference in the world." Rush
understands that it is difficult for a "thinking, engaged
individual" to be truly objective, and he has no problem with the
media being biased, but they should at least be honest about
their biases. Granted, the goal of a media should be to provide
unbiased reporting, but this will never be totally achieved.
However, the media should acknowledge this fact.

THIRD HOUR

Items

o       Next Monday is going to be the debut of Rush's TV show;
check your local listings. Rush was going to spend part of
today's show predicting what the critics would say about it, but
he decided that this would be a waste of time. He's just going to
do his show, and to heck with the critics.

EIB is hoping to eventually use AT&T's new videophones so that
the TV show can have video phone calls; however, this technology
isn't ready yet, so Rush is soliciting viewer comments and
questions on VHS tapes. These cassettes won't be returned,
although Rush may decide to award some sort of prize to those
"callers" whose videos are aired.

Videos should be sent to Rush Limbaugh the Television Show, 515
West 57th Street, New York, NY 10019. Brevity is a big plus.

Holliday claims that Lee does not have permission to use his
tape.

Update  Feminist                 (The Forester Sisters, "Men"
with "in your face" slogan)

The New York state Senate races are getting brutal, at least
between the feminist candidates. Rush repeats his basic thesis
that feminism has a leftist, liberal agenda, and he points out
that the "we're fierce, we're feminists, we're in your face"
slogan was actually uttered during a pro-choice rally in
Washington, DC. He remarks on how the "we're fierce" slogan
doesn't sound like a nurturing type comment, which is the reason
that Carol Moseley Braun has given for America to elect women to
Congress - because they can "nurture the economy back to health."

1992 is supposed to be the Year of the Woman because women are
expected to win an unprecedented number of seats in Congress.
These liberal women who are seeking public office originally
stated that more women were needed because the Senate Judiciary
Committee did not believe Anita Hill's testimony about Clarence
Thomas.

Feminists changed their tune about this, though, once they
realized that two-thirds of American women didn't believe Anita
Hill. When Rush pointed this fact out during the dinner last
night, he was resoundingly hissed. However, when former mayor Ed
Koch had his turn to speak, he confirmed Rush's observation by
stating that the "majority of American women did not believe
Anita Hill."

Koch continued on to say that Senator Arlen Specter was right to
say that Hill perjured herself during her testimony. Amazingly
the Democratic Koch was not hissed when he made these comments.

Rush knows he will be accused yet again of talking too much about
politics, but he wonders whether his detractors would prefer it
if he started singing instead. He illustrates his point by
singing part of his Requiem for Mitch Snyder, one-time homeless
advocate and now full-time dead person.

Rush knows that he is supposed to be doing a Feminist Update and
so he returns to his subject, which is the explanation that
liberal women are now giving as to why they are running for
office - they now claim that more women are needed in Congress
because of the "outrageous" way Anita Hill was treated during the
hearings. They no longer care whether Hill was telling the truth
about Thomas, or whether she had any evidence for her claims,
which if believed would have destroyed a man's life, reputation,
and career.

Thus, the way Anita Hill was treated by the all-male Senate
Committee has become a campaign issue. Yet the way that the
feminist candidates in the New York state Senate race are
treating each other makes what happened to Hill look like a
garden tea party. Hill has never been treated like these women
are treating each other.

Geraldine Ferraro and Liz Holzman are competing in the Democratic
primary for the privilege of unseating incumbent Senator Alfonse
D'Amato. Both women have run TV ads accusing each other of being
dishonest and deceitful.

Holzman in particular has accused Ferraro of profiting from a
child pornography ring that was being run by organized crime.
Ferraro's husband owned a building that was leased by the
criminals involved.

Last night during a televised debate, Ferraro challenged Holzman
to describe how she would have evicted these alleged criminals.
Holzman replied "that's why we need someone in the US Senate who
doesn't need to be told how to evict a child pornographer."

According to Rush, the debate quickly degenerated into a cat-
fight, and the moderator was hard pressed to keep the two women
apart. Finally, the moderator silenced both women, but only after
the spectacle of their vicious in-fighting had gone on for
minutes.

Thus, these feminist women are treating each other far worse than
how Anita Hill was treated. Senator Specter was widely criticized
for waving around faxes and letters from people who claimed to
have knowledge of Anita Hill's transgressions as a lawyer and
professor. Specter was ridiculed for trying to bring in "hearsay"
evidence into the confirmation hearings. Yet, what was Hill
providing if not unsubstantiated allegations and hearsay
evidence?

In fact, Hill's main witness, Judge Susan Herschner, not only did
not provide any real evidence, but she changed her story to
eliminate the inconsistencies in her original testimony to the
Committee. The staff begs Rush to do his impression of Herschner,
and he obliges, knowing full well that certain summary writers
climb the walls and tear out their own fingernails, leaving their
keyboards a bloody mess, whenever he does this impression.

Phone   Larry from Lake Wilson, MN

Larry says that if the Democrats believe the economy is so bad
off, how can they think anyone could possibly afford to take 12
weeks off without pay? Rush calls that a brilliant question - if
people can't even afford to live, or eat, or send their kids to
school, or anything, then why are the Democrats claiming 12 weeks
off is a good idea?

Rush rewards Larry by sending him a signed copy of his book, and
Larry is grateful - he actually lives in Florida, but his home is
about 150 miles from the path traveled by Hurricane Andrew. Thus,
he still has a home and a mailing address so there will be no
problems in sending the book to him. Rush is amazed at how he
spent the better part of an hour yesterday trying to explain why
he opposes the family leave bill, and then Larry calls in and
"nukes" the idea in 20 seconds.

Kit Carson doesn't understand, so Rush patiently explains that
the Democrats are claiming that today is the worst of times ever
- 30 million are in poverty, 30 million are starving, and kids
can't get a decent education. So what is their solution? They
tell the American public to go ahead and take 12 weeks off
without pay.

Phone   Scott from Council Bluffs, IA

Scott relates that in one of his college communication classes,
the teacher asked how many students were Democrats and how many
were Republicans. Scott, as a conservative Republican, was in the
minority, but he boldly stated that he was proud that he had
voted for both Reagan and Bush, and is proud that he will vote
for Bush again.

The teacher accused Scott of being another David Duke and a nazi.
Rush is not surprised and holds him over the break.

*BREAK*

Phone   Scott from Council Bluffs, IA (continued)

Scott was offended by his teacher's remarks, but since his
teacher is the chairman of the broadcasting department he
couldn't do much about it. Scott adds that Rush made the local
news - his book is sold out through his area. One store, though,
said that a "truckload" of books is expected soon.

Rush swears that he is not planting these calls about his book -
instead, his book has obviously become a "consumer matter," and
Rush refuses to allow himself to be accused of being "a roadblock
to the economy." Today, Rush's book is #6 on the NY Times Best
Seller List, and he expects it to go higher very quickly. His
publisher won't allow him to give out the number of copies
already printed, but it's in the hundreds of thousands, and
hundreds of thousands of more have been reordered.

Rush is proud, though, that his book is helping the economy, and
thus he wants to encourage Scott and other listeners to keep on
trying and not to be discouraged by this slight supply problem.
Rush asks Scott how many stores he went to in his search for the
book, and Scott replies "two." Rush says that this is "good
enough for me" and he promises to send Scott an autographed copy
of his book.

Thus, in a small way, Rush has helped to assuage the national
book crisis by providing one listener with a copy of his book.

Phone   Clarence "Frogman" Henry from New Orleans, LA

The Frogman does a couple of "ribits" and then adds "I'll take
the job." Rush says that the Frogman is sounding good, and the
Frogman replies that he is feeling fine and is keeping busy
performing. He relates that he starts off every one of his
performances with "The Rush Limbaugh Song."

The Frogman adds that everyone in town loves Rush, including his
doctor. Rush says that the National Association of Radio
Broadcasters is having their annual convention in New Orleans
this year, but he can't attend because of his TV rehearsals. Rush
is saddened by this, not just because New Orleans is one of his
favorite towns, but because it would have allowed him and the
Frogman to get together again.

Rush invites the Frogman to his TV show should he ever be in New
York, and the Frogman replies "I'll take the job." Rush explains
that the Frogman's song "Ain't Got No Home" is used as the
Homeless Update Theme. Thus, in the Rush to Excellence Tour in
Sacramento two years ago, Rush wanted the Frogman to be part of
the show as well as come on a Rush Cruise. The Frogman proved to
be a tough negotiator, but when it can down to an answer he told
Rush "I'll take the job."

Rush likes this line of the Frogman's because it's the perfect
solution to the homeless problem in America. To thank the Frogman
for calling, Rush plays part of his song "Ain't Got No Home."

Phone   Darryl from Naperville, IL

Darryl says that he finally found one copy of Rush's book at a
local bookstore and he asked the owner to hold it for him. When
he showed up at the store to pick up the book, though, he found
two other customers arguing about who should get the book. The
bookstore owner intervened and told them that Darryl had reserved
the book. Rush is somewhat distraught by this news because his
book is supposed to promote peace and harmony.

Darryl continues on with his story - after he bought the book, he
left it on the front seat of his car while he ran some errands.
He didn't lock his car doors, and thus when he returned he found
that some dastard of a dittohead had stolen the book. What's
funny about the theft, though, is that the thief ignored Darryl's
pullout stereo and cassette tape collection.

Fortunately, Darryl managed to find another copy of the book and
he's already read part of it; he is even using a yellow
highlighter to mark the good parts, which is almost every line.
Rush is impressed that Darryl bought two copies of his book just
to read it once.

Darryl says that he wouldn't want to take advantage of his
situation to beg for a free book, but he would give such a
freebie to a dear friend if such a book came in the mail. Rush
has his suspicions about whether Darryl is telling the truth or
just telling a tale; Darryl offers to fax Rush copies of his two
receipts, and this convinces Rush of Darryl's sincerity. Rush
therefore promises to send Darryl a signed book.

Bo Snerdley is not too happy with Rush's generosity, though,
because he knows he will now have to field innumerable phone
calls from people who don't want to talk to Rush but just get a
free book. Rush tells Bo to be nice to these people, but he
reminds the audience that although his generosity is ever
present, it's up to him as to whether he will act on it or not.

*BREAK*

In order to show that he understands the pain and suffering in
America, Rush plays the song "I'm a Victim" and dedicates it to
all the Democrats who might be listening.

Phone   Jack from Hartford, CT

Jack wonders why Rush hasn't talked about Clinton's cabinet, and
Rush replies that one caller has already given some suggestions,
which will be published in the second issue of the Limbaugh
Letter. Jack lists who he thinks will be possible appointees:

o       Patricia Schroeder as Secretary of Defense (she could
provide military innovations such as new battlefield hair-
dressing techniques)

o       Ted Kennedy as Secretary of the Interior (he could use
the nation's park lands as the sites for a chain of driving
schools and test-taking seminars)

o       Alan Cranston as Secretary of the Treasury (he could
lower the nation's debt by stopping any criminal investigations
for $100,000)

o       Maxine Walters as Secretary of HUD (she could pay armies
of angry inner city youths to dismantle the decaying cities)

o       Al Sharpton as Secretary of Education (he could have
schools offer new courses such as media manipulation)

o       Ed Asner and Phil Donahue would share the Press Secretary
position. Rush says that Clinton wouldn't need a Press Secretary
since he already has the lapdog media in his back pocket.

Jack is disappointed, though, that he can't find any positions
for Jesse Jackson and Dianne Feinstein. Rush says that Jackson
will be the first Senator for the 51st state of New Columbia,
while Feinstein will be California's senior Senator. Rush thanks
Jack for calling, and is glad that Jack "is thinking like we do."

*BREAK*

Phone   Tim from Natick, MA

Tim thinks that Reagan and Bush were implementing good foreign
policy when they armed Iraq during its war with Iran. This helped
to stabilize the region by making sure the two sides in the war
stayed tied up with each other, thereby preventing a clear
victor. Even when Iraq invaded Kuwait, the US knew what kind of
weapons it was facing.

Rush says that this last fact is not quite true - the Iraqis used
up a lot of US weaponry during their war with Iran, and what the
Allies faced in Kuwait was largely of Soviet manufacture. This is
why Gorbachev was so intent about stopping a ground war, and why
there were still Soviet advisors in Iraq after the invasion.

This is Tim's other point as well - the US did face Soviet
weaponry, but the Allies also had to overcome US weapons as well,
which was a good test for our military's abilities.
