What Next? Rush Celebrates and Gives Advice

Rush gives a hip-hip hooray for the defeat of the immigration bill. He confirms it was a victory for legal Americans. He really hits the head on what to do next.

“You’re going to be tarred and feathered as a vocal and loud minority and racists and all that, but they can’t say you don’t count.  When the rubber hit the road, that’s why one of the reasons I was fairly confident about this and not panicking yesterday, one of the reasons, when the rubber hit the road, they listened to you.  They listened to the polling on this.  You shut down Washington’s whole phone system today.  Passport offices, everything was shut down.  In the Senate I think they shut down the phone system, Jeff Sessions said something like that, just to avoid having the whole thing get shut down.  They had to limit access to it because you were being heard.  American people in this country, on balance, not in every instance, but they get what they want.  In this case, this bill is dead for two years now because Dingy Harry says he can’t bring this up next year, it’s the presidential election.  Well, fine and dandy.  This debate needs to be part of the presidential race, folks.  Make it a national debate and have it out in the open, not behind closed doors with amendments that nobody read, amendments that did not have a chance.”

Making it a national debate, let’s say second in importance to defeating terrorism, would not only make great strides for the immigration problem . . . it would also greatly help the conservative members of the Republican Party for next election(s).
