Folks, it is not an overstatement to say this administration is destroying this country as it was founded. I don't need to exaggerate it. I'm not exaggerating for effect. I'm not trying to "cause buzz" so that more people will tune in. I'm not trying to "cause buzz" so that our friends in the leftist media will cite it. I'm not trying to tweak the media here.
They are hell-bent on destroying this country as it was founded, and in a year and a half they've gotten pretty much of that done. They have succeeded incredibly in just a year and a half, a little over a year and a half. They've already taken over one-sixth or one-fifth of the US private sector with taking over health care. Automobile companies. Basically essentially running the student loan business and the lending business in toto. They're demanding you have to buy health insurance or you get fined, hiring 16,000 new IRS agents. And Democrats are on the run during all of this. Now it's just come to light... You know, Pelosi said, "Well, people will find out what's in the health care bill when it passes. We gotta pass it so people find out what's in it."
Well, we've been telling you about the new rules on 1099s. As a small business, if you do $600 of business with anybody you gotta file a 1099 with the IRS which means you're going to have to ramp up. The paperwork of filing a 1099... A 1099, I use 'em. I have people contract hire. I contract employees. I pay 'em X for doing a certain amount of work and I pay 'em the gross. They pay their grosses. I have to pay them a 1099 at the end of the year. I report the 1099 to the IRS. They have to pay their own taxes, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Well, under the health care rule, if you do $600 of business with anybody over the course of the year, you gotta file a 1099 for every instance above it. Every instance, including if you're a small business that has trucks and you're buying diesel! A 1099 for all the diesel you buy and at all the different stations all across the country wherever your trucks go.
And the Democrats say, "Oh, we didn't know that was in there." There's an effort now to get that taken out. Section 9006 of the health care bill, just a few lines buried in the 2,409-page document: "Mandates beginning in 2012 all companies will have to issue 1099 tax forms not just to contract workers, but to any individual or corporation from which they buy more than $600 in goods or services in a tax year," which is every year. This is... You talk about productivity shutdowns? You know how people try to rearrange and arrange their lives to avoid tax consequences? It's just an absolute mess. Now the Democrats, some of them are saying, "Well, we didn't know this was in there" and want to get it stricken and the administration says, "No way! No way. We're not changing anything. We are on a charted course to destroy this country as founded and we are not going to back off of it one bit."
Well, to me, that's pretty radical. It isn't politics as usual. So the Limbaugh Rule: In an election year, when voters are fed up with liberalism and socialism and when the fate of the country as founded is at stake, you vote for the most conservative Republican in the primary, period. It will be a rare opportunity to move the party and the country to the right." The Limbaugh Rule is do not play defense when your offensive hand is as strong as ours is. I look at what's happening, what we're faced with, and I listen to people debate on the margins, Christine O'Donnell versus Castle. See, the issue to me is not Christine O'Donnell. The issue is Castle. It's very simple. She's not the issue. Castle is.
Guys like Castle will tarnish the Republican brand and the conservative brand just as McCain has done. Lindsey Graham? It's no different than that. In 2008... I'm gonna go through this again. In 2008, Christine O'Donnell got 35% of the vote against Biden. Biden was running at the top of the Democrat ticket as the VP candidate for The Messiah, and the beloved McCain only got 37% of the vote in Delaware. Did Biden have baggage? (snorts) Does Biden have baggage? Does Castle have baggage? Now, the point is McCain only got 37%. Should we not have even contested in Delaware? Maybe we should have ceded Deleware, not even sent McCain there. We shouldn't even have tried to win Delaware.
To my mind, if the polls are right, she's down 25 points if she wins today, 25 points down the general. There's no better year than today than this year to make that up. It's certainly worth fighting for. Biden was an incumbent at the height of his popularity. He was a favorite son at the top of the ticket in a year, 2008, when the Democrats are winning in a landslide. Why is it so impossible to believe that Christine O'Donnell would win against a nobody in a midterm election where the GOP is going to have a landslide? The GOP is going to have a national landslide; who's to say with ontological certitude that she's a destined loser in the midst of a GOP landslide? And who is it that doesn't want to try?
Who is it that doesn't want to seek a conservative victory here given what we are up against? So the line is that Christine O'Donnell has no shot of winning Delaware. Isn't that what they said about Scott Brown in Massachusetts? Martha Coakley was going to clean his clock. I mean Scott Brown had not a prayer. He had no chance. "The Kennedy seat? Come on, Rush, don't kid me." Who were we told we had to support? The Scozzafavas of the world, whatever. We were told we had to support Dede Scozzafava. Who else? Any number of RINO Republicans. They said, "Chris Christie doesn't have a chance, have a prayer in New Jersey. Who you kidding, Rush? Or O'Connell in Virginia doesn't have a prayer. These are blue states, Rush. Come on. We need to get a Republican that can win there. These things just can't happen. You're going to have to get real, Rush."
