| RUSH: Some people were asking me about Ben Carson last night. And I said, "Let me tell you what his secret is. People are not able to detect an agenda when Ben Carson speaks. That´s the magic." And it´s the same thing with Obama. Obama does not appear to have an agenda. At least people don´t attach an agenda to him. What that means is, people are not, therefore, automatically predisposed to being wary. People who have agendas, and those agendas are known, will automatically have people suspicious of them.

Benjamin Carson is a fresh face.
And he skillfully got fresh with Obama in full public view.
Some like to call that kind of thing...
"speaking truth to power"
which is usually claimed by the radicals and counterculture, but almost seems applicable here, too.
Once Carson comes up with an obvious and transparent agenda of his own...
such as "vote for me and I´ll set ya free!"
then the bloom will come off this rose, too.
Most likely, anyway.
Obama may pretend to have no agenda other than Guerrilla Gummint against a stodgy
establishment that "needs fixin´", but anyone with at least half a brain functioning can see his radical and hateful plans to alter America.
So we all know Obama has that agenda.
He´s just foolin´ some o´ da dummies for a little while longer.
But just wait until 2014´s changes kick in.
Obama will finally go down the tubes when even the idiots notice they´re being royally screwed by that Guerrilla Gummint.
Then we´ll get changes.
The pendulum can still swing back our way.
Think repeal of Obamacare.
Prohibition was in the constitution by amendment and got repealed.
We can do anything...
and we´ll git her done.
And you heard or read it here, first.

#1, what are you talking about???
Anyway, I think Rush is spot on. He knows how the leftists are and what they will do if Carson shows interest in running for office.
What I like to hear is when he and a caller were talking about the GOP reaching out to the various communities. We need to do that a LOT more than we ever have before. I didn´t even know that Kemp was doing it but, obviously, we need a lot more of it. And yes, it is all about HOW you discuss it and HOW you approach the subject. You cannot just go in and tell people "This is how things work". People won´t listen. You have to first hear them out and then you need to engage them and get them to think about various scenarios so they come to their OWN conclusions. I sure hope we can get more foot soldiers out there. If I weren´t hurting so bad right now, I would be back in Oakland again doing my outreach. Hopefully, things will start to look up and I can start doing it again.

He scares me too.
Doesn´t believe inner city ibhabitants ought to have second amendment rights.
Thinks the Iraq war could have been settled with diplomacy.
Ditto, Afghanistan.
Reminds me of how Powell exploitd his suggestion that he might run for president to ramp up his book sales.
A bit too much braggadocio, for me. I don´t see running for president as a subject for a tease.

#3, think #1 is talking about Obama. I think Rush is correct too. The stars of the party, the recognizable faces, the princes of the Senate, etc. are the ones who need to go into those neighborhoods. Just sending "Party workers" in there will not work. Put your money where your mouth is. I fully expect those who are even thinking of getting our vote for next President to get in there and do just that. Yes, it will be rough for awhile but there are future Allen West´s, Herman Cains, and Ted Cruz´ in those places waiting for a reason to respect a Republican. Get in there and give them a reason.

Thirty-six weeks. That´s the average time an unemployed American is out of work in the Obama-led economy, according to the latest government data. For anyone who has been jobless for an extended duration of time, nine months seems like an eternity. But, nine months is the norm in the Obama economy. The latest data from the Department of Labor show the nation´s unemployment rate stands at 7.5%. The Obama Administration and Obama backers are quick to point out that this rate is the lowest of his presidency. However, the deeper we dig into the state of the unemployed under Obama,

Now that the low-information/low-knowledge segment of the country is waking up to what conservatives have been pointing out since Barack Obama was first sanctified by the left, we are being treated to the spectacle of a liberal epiphany. How, they ask themselves, could this have happened? How could they have been suckered so completely? After all, liberals/progressives tell us all the time, they are a superior manifestation of the species. They are always right, and their political opponents are always bad people, motivated by ignorance and stupidity at best, and impure designs at least.

RUSH: Folks, we are being told that Lois Lerner´s seemingly out-of-the-blue admission about the IRS tax-exempt waivers was carefully planned. The question that evoked her admission was planted as part of prepared strategy for the IRS to release this information to the public, and that´s according to the outgoing IRS commissioner, Steven Miller. He said it in testimony before the House Ways and Means Committee this morning.

RUSH: I am getting the sense that there is an effervescing rage in the country over what is happening. If you´re watching these hearings today, if you are listening to the media, I hate to say, "I told you so," but the media is circling the wagons around the regime. It was just yesterday and the day before that people eagerly called here and were sending me e-mails, thinking this was it. "The media is finally going to turn on Obama!" I said, "It´s never going to happen, not for real,"

Speaking at Ohio State University this month, Barack Obama urged students to pay no attention to those paranoid types who "incessantly warn of government as nothing more than some separate, sinister entity." Oddly enough, in recent days the most compelling testimony for this view of government has come from the president himself, who insists, with a straight face, that he had no idea that the Internal Revenue Service had spent two years targeting his political enemies until he "learned about it from the same news reports that I think most people learned about this."

Officials on Benghazi:
"We made mistakes,

Obama administration officials who were in key positions on Sept. 11, 2012, acknowledge that a range of mistakes were made the night of the attacks on the U.S. missions in Benghazi, and in messaging to Congress and the public in the aftermath. The officials spoke to CBS News in a series of interviews and communications under the condition of anonymity so that they could be more frank in their assessments. They do not all agree on the list of mistakes and it's important to note that they universally claim that any errors or missteps did not cost lives and reflect "incompetence rather than malice or cover up.

Watching President Obama trying to dodge raindrops and responsibility yesterday reminded me of the moment when Dorothy pulls back the curtain and discovers that the Wizard of Oz is “just a man.” Stripped of his spell of mystery and power, the wizard is worse than mortal. He’s a fake. So it was with Obama in the Rose Garden. His performance was tired and trite, ordinary to the point of dull. His veneer of passion was so transparent that you could see him trying to summon his old-time magic by pushing the buttons

STANDING BEFORE reporters Thursday, President Obama declined an invitation to compare the recent scandals weighing down his administration with those that forced President Nixon to resign in 1974. So allow us to do the work for him: There is no comparison. Nixon, in a series of crimes that collectively came to be known as Watergate, directed from the White House and Justice Department a concerted campaign against those he perceived as political enemies, in the process subverting the FBI, the IRS, other government agencies and the electoral process to his nefarious purposes. Mr. Obama has done nothing of the kind.

In the wake of one of the worst abuses of government power in recent history, many are rushing to frame the Internal Revenue Service scandal as simply an attack on conservative activists. That view risks creating a partisan political football and misses a fundamentally scarier abuse that exceeds the scandals of Watergate or any other prior government abuse. The IRS has admitted that since May 2010 it targeted grassroots-conservative organizations that had applied for tax-exempt status, unfairly subjecting them to rigorous scrutiny due to their political leanings. Such groups were told they were required to comply with IRS requests,

The State Department, under Secretary Hillary Rodham Clinton, created an arrangement for her longtime aide and confidante Huma Abedin to work for private clients as a consultant while serving as a top adviser in the department. Ms. Abedin did not disclose the arrangement — or how much income she earned — on her financial report. It requires officials to make public any significant sources of income. An adviser to Mrs. Clinton, Philippe Reines, said that Ms. Abedin was not obligated to do so. The disclosure of the agreement that Ms. Abedin made with the State Department comes as her husband,

The Internal Revenue Service´s watchdog told top Treasury officials around June 2012 he was investigating allegations the tax agency had targeted conservative groups, for the first time indicating that Obama administration officials were aware of the explosive matter in the midst of the president´s re-election campaign. The disclosure to the Treasury general counsel and the deputy secretary was a cursory one, according to J. Russell George, the Treasury inspector general for tax administration. He said he didn´t reveal conclusions of the probe, which was in its early stages, and his disclosure came as part

The lawmaker leading the charge to investigate the Benghazi terror attack on Friday subpoenaed the co-author of a report that slammed the State Department but didn´t interview Hillary Clinton. House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) formally demanded that retired ambassador Thomas Pickering submit to being deposed by the committee next Thursday. The subpoena comes in the wake of a series of acrimonious public exchanges this week between the two men. Issa didn´t issue a subpoena to former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Michael Mullen, who co-authored the Benghazi report with Pickering.
