         Runaway pigs in Rio Linda, California, ladies and gentlemen, details coming up on this the 
         Rush Limbaugh program, weÕre here.  As long as IÕm here though, it doesnÕt really matter 
         where here is so donÕt bother trying to find us.  Just listen to the excellence in broadcasting 
         network, etc.
         
         					OPEN LINE FRIDAY
         
         
         Introduces telephone number.  WeÕve got to start off with some light-hearted news first.  
         Runaway Vietnamese pot belly pigs in Rio Linda, California. You people may not know this, 
         but Rio Linda, California is perhaps the United States capital of Vietnamese pot belly pigs.  
         More Rio Lindens have them as pets than in any city in America or close to it.  They rank 
         right up there.  I remember when I was in Sacramento seeing story after story after story 
         about how they bring in these cute little poor pot bellied pigs in and the thing is that nobody 
         knows is that these things end up weighing a gazillion pounds, and they no longer remain lap 
         pigs.   Once they get big, theyÕre not even couch pigs.  So whatÕs happened is a bunch of 
         people have gotten rid of these cute, cuddly, Vietnamese pot bellied pigs, they are now 
         homeless and they are terrorizing the citizens of Rio Linda, California.  Television stations in 
         Rio Linda have beamed video of this unsightly sight to TV reception than doers and stations 
         across the country.   And apparently ladies and gentlemen what has happened is that these 
         Vietnamese pot bellied pigs, and I know this is tough to believe, but they are actually tearing 
         up the front yards of citizens in Rio Linda.  The front yards are already occupied by autos on 
         concrete blocks.  ItÕs a major problem.  Rio Linda, California.  Run away Vietnamese pot 
         bellied pigs are terrorizing the population.  IÕm just visualizing Rio Lindans chasing pot 
         bellied pigs all over town.   
         
         Now this is a funny story.  This is a story, itÕs a little football news, but itÕs, actually itÕs not 
         football news, its about a very prominent football figure, Green Bay Packers Coach, Mike 
         Holmgran.  ThereÕs a little town in Wisconsin called Marcosan, and in this little town of 
         Marcosan there is a service station and the other night, actually 3:30 in the morning, a 
         passerby saw what he thought was a burglar inside the service station.   Now thatÕs an unusual 
         sight because not too many places get burglared in Marcosan and theyÕre arenÕt too many 
         people up at 3:30 in the morning in Marcosan.   So if you combine these 2 events, 3:30 in 
         the morning and somebody strolling by the service station sees what he thinks is a burglar 
         inside the service station calls the cops, the cops arrive, and it isnÕt a burglar, it is a 
         life-sized cardboard cutout of Green Bay Packers Coach, Mike Holmgran.   He was 
         mistaken for a burglar at the service station.   ItÕs hilarious said Debbie Bergeman of 
         BergemanÕs Amoco.   ItÕs also nice to know that cops respond quickly when they are advised 
         of a problem.   I do not know, what it is, the figure of Holmgran is cutout life-size and his 
         arms are extended as though heÕs holding newspapers, the way you pick up a newspaper.  And 
         apparently it was empty, the newspapers had not been placed there yet because the service 
         station wasnÕt opened or the papers hadnÕt arrived or whatever, and so it looked to a 
         passerby like Mike Holmgran was holding up an Amoco Station at 3:30 in the morning.  
         They found out it was just a cardboard cutout.  
         
         You know the debates, the presidential debates are heating up ladies and gentlemen.  How 
         about the latest poll number, CNN, USA Today, anybody see Inside Politics on CNN last 
         night.  My friends abject panic has set in from Bernard Shaw to Bill Snyder.  Absolute panic 
         has set in.  Have you ever seen one of these movies with an avalanche in it?   You know how 
         the avalanche starts a few little pebbles trickling down the hill, a slight crack, a little fissure, 
         you got a hint of tension music and then under the mountain of course you go down to the 
         bottom and kids are playing, the innocent bystanders are about to be crushed are minding 
         their own business.  And you know whatÕs going to follow.  TheyÕre all going to notice all of 
         


         a sudden here comes the rocks of the avalanche and abject panic sets in thatÕs what the set of 
         Inside Politics looked like last night on CNN.  Pebbles is starting to trickle.  The media is 
         starting to lose it.  The ClintonÕs news network, Bernard Shaw, in reporting CNNÕs tracking 
         poll which is now at 10 points.  The presidential campaign is shifting into the spend and slam 
         mode, spend big bucks and use those bucks to slam the opposition.  ThatÕs Bernard Shaw.   
         Mr. Snerdley listen to this.  Mr. Snerdley time out.  Mr. Snerdley I want you to listen to this 
         cause this is probably going to generate some phone calls and I want you to know that IÕve 
         said all there is to say about it.  OK.   You get my drift here.  WeÕre watching CNN, the 
         trickle of the avalanche has just begun Bernard Shaw looking up and seeing a whole 
          mountain coming down on him with a 10 point USA Today, CNN tracking poll all right.   
         And ShawÕs quote is this:  ÒThe presidential campaign is shifting into the spend and slam 
         mode.  Spend big bucks and use those bucks to slam the opposition.Ó  Starting to slam Bernie?  
         Starting to Slam?  Where have you been?  What television do you watch?  Have you ever 
         heard of starving children?  Medicare cuts, extremists, slashing this and slashing that.  Now 
         all this is, you know what it is folks.  ItÕs just that Bob Dole is calling Bill Clinton a liberal.  
         The panic, the avalanche is coming because of the use of the word liberal.   Now the poll was 
         at its height, what 21 points some time between September 2nd and now, that polls been at 
         20 or 21 points.  Now its at 10 and IÕm reading the Associated Press story just last night on 
         the wire service and the guy reporting all these various polls and CNNÕs poll is one on which 
         he reported the guy says thereÕs been a slight narrowing of the gap.  Like from 21 to 10 
         points.  ThatÕs a movement of 11 points my friends.   A slight narrowing of the gap.  
         Bernard Shaw is now very upset that dirty campaigning has begun.  But it goes on.  Brooks 
         Jackson, reporter for CNN, he does  a good job.  I think Brook JacksonÕs stuff is some of the 
         most balanced on CNN, but even Brooks Jackson on Inside Politics last night on the Clinton 
         news network said, ÒThe Dole Campaign is tripling the volume of their TV Ads, Clinton Ads 
         were negative-positive in their approach, DoleÕs ads are negative-negative, thereÕs nothing 
         positive about DoleÕs ads, but ClintonÕs at least end up with something....have they forgotten 
         the $35 million of ads thatÕs been spent by the AFL-CIO, all that stuff doesnÕt matter.   
         They seem to conveniently ignore that.  They ignore all the lies and distortions and how bout 
         the term ÔextremistsÕ.  Let me get to that right now, because up next in this entire situation 
         my friends is our good friend the analyst, William Snyder.   Before I get to Snyder though, I 
         just remembered one thing.  They put up a map where the Republicans are advertising.  They 
         showed a map highlighting where the RepublicanÕs are advertising and how many spots 
         theyÕre running in each market.  Now remember when they did that with the labor spots?  I 
         donÕt either.  I donÕt remember CNN showing this world the labor commercials theyÕre 
         running, I donÕt remember CNN showing us a world the Democratic ads are running, but now 
         we know where every Republican ad is running and who its targeted at.  Yes, my friends, a 
         clear sense of panic is set in.  Now William Bill Snyder.  The story behind the story, this is 
         what his little segment is called.  The story behind the story.  Why and how is the Clinton 
         lead shrinking?   My friends the answer is offered by Bill SnyderÕs the dreaded ÒLÓ word.  
         The liberal word is working, if so, I take some credit.  If so, weÕre going to take some credit 
         for this because it works.  We know it works.  We urged that it be used, and now itÕs being 
         used and they are panicking over it.   But never once did they consider that extremists might 
         be a problem word, this normal political rhetoric, but with these people at the Clinton News 
         Network, the word ÔliberalÕ is far more perjaritive than the word ÔextremistÕ.  After months 
         and months of the extremist word, extremist here, extremist there, with nary a shrug about it 
         the ÔLÕ word is now not fair.  This is just not right, this is the tone of the Inside Politics 
         Report last night on the Clinton News Network.  The goofy part about all this is is that we 
         extremists are not and those liberals are so we get mad for being tarred and feathered with an 
         untrue label and they donÕt think anything about it.  We tar and feather them with a true 
         label and they canÕt handle it.  ItÕs set in friends, the panic, the avalanche.  They canÕt 
         explain it and theyÕre all upset the campaign has gotten dirty.  And speaking of that about 
         the debates going back and forth arguing and listen to what Mike McCurry said about Bob 
         Dole.  Now I have put this in 2 contexts.  One heÕs the spokesman for the President of the 
         United States.  Remember this is supposed to be a cut above and the President wants to have 
         this attitude that heÕs above it all and looking down on a better than the rest of the pack.  
         And the President also said there wouldnÕt be any mean spirited attacks from his side. That 
         wasnÕt going to happen we were going to stick to the issues.  So here is Mike McCurry 
         traveling with the President in Pennsylvania on Wednesday making fun of Bob Dole as a 
         debater.  Called him the Titanic Juggernaut of Debaters.   Well the second context is these 
         people are ripe, they are over confident, they think they have it in the bag.   And you start 
         talking about things like this, Bob Dole, that Titanic Juggernaut of Debaters.  Dole is a good 
         debater and people who remember his 1976 debates and 1980 debates,  he doesnÕt do a bad 
         job.  These people are just over-confident and itÕs going to be a problem for them, especially 
         if they have this kind of attitude and this is mean spirited and this is what weÕre accused of 
         being, but McCurry is all over the place.  You know this is not new for Mike McCurry.   
         


         Mike McCurry also has said that he thinks Republicans want old people to just die.  Remember 
         that?  Mc Curry, he just thinks Republicans want old people to just wither away and die.  Not 
         just Medicare thatÕs what McCurry says Republicans want and now Bob Dole is the Titanic 
         Juggernaut of Debaters.  
         
         Finally, about the Israeli situation.  Just so you know.  Bill Clinton is blaming the Jews.  Bill 
         Clinton blames the Jews for the shooting war that has erupted on the West Bank in Israel 
         over this tunnel through Jerusalem.  Bill Clinton front page of the newspapers here in New 
         York today.  Bill Clinton is blaming the Jews.  This is Rush Limbaugh in New York on the 
         Excellence in Broadcasting Network and weÕll be back..

         This is Rush Limbaugh during the commercial break here and Mr. Snerdley says, Òdo you 
          know a a Paul Horning?Ó  I said, Òdo I know a Paul Horning?Ó  ÒYeah, you ever heard of a 
         Paul Horning?Ó  I said, ÒYeahÓ.  ÒAll right, heÕs on from Indianapolis.Ó  (Rush corrects  Mr. 
         SnerdleyÕs use of the word ÒaÓ in the phrase Òdo you know ÒaÓ Paul HorningÓ).  Rush says,   
         ÒThere is not Ò aÓ Paul Horning Mr. Snerdley, itÕs the Paul Horning and he is on a cellular 
         call from Indianapolis.  Is this true?Ó
         
         PAUL
         
         Well thank you very much Rush and dittos to you from the highways of Notre Dame

         PAUL
         
         Just fine.  IÕve been a fan of yours for a long time.  ItÕs kind of odd.   My wife has tried to get 
         through for 4 years.  WeÕre driving up to Notre Dame for the Ohio State/Notre Dame Game 
         which I work on mutual and anyway she says letÕs try to get through to Rush.  I said oh we 
         canÕt get through and I just picked up the phone and called and IÕll be darned IÕm on the 
         phone and IÕm happy to say hello to you.
         
         RUSH
         
         IÕll tell you what this is a thrill.   This is an absolute thrill.   I have so much respect.   You 
         know Paul I gotta tell you something.  Aside from your career on the field you used to do a 
         show and I think it lasted for 1 year on TBS down in Atlanta on a Saturday night you and a 
         couple of other guys you ended up picking the games.  You did your pick segment at the end.  
         That was from the stadium club at Fulton County State, one of the best football pre-game 
         shows IÕve ever seen.
         
         PAUL
         
         Called ÒFootball Saturday LiveÓ
         
         RUSH
         
         ThatÕs right.   And it reviewed some of the hot college games that day.  Now let me ask you 
         this.  I have Sunday Ticket on my BSS Satellite and you do a show that they run before the 
         network pre-game.  When do you tape that show, where do you tape it?
         
         PAUL
         
         I tape the show in Louisville, Kentucky  every Wednesday night and then I send it down to 
         Prime, they put it on Prime Network and they also take a half hour out of the show and put 
         it on NFL Sunday Ticket.  So I had George Steinbetter on last week and it was kind of unique 
         because I introduced him 2 minutes after the Yankees clenched the Pennant so 
         
         


         


         
         RUSH
         
         UH OH!  OH No. NO NO NO NO NO.  IÕm going to hang up.  Mr. Snerdley keep this line 
         open in case Mr. Horning happens to get his cellular connection back.  Because I got, weÕve 
         got, Paul weÕve lost you if youÕre tuned in on the radio and IÕve got to ask you a question I 
         was leading up to something I heard you say, Òon your show on Prime you were review at first 
         week of the year and youÕre picking the Cowboys in their Monday night game against the 
         Bears and you refer to it as the Dallas Convicts and you made some comment about the way 
         the NFL is going these days vs. the way it used to be when punishing wayward players and I 
         wanted to ask you specifically....by the way folks this is football talk, but it does have to do 
         with society as well.  Because drugs are a big part of this presidential campaign.  Drugs are a 
         big part of the concern the parents have.  TheyÕre worried about what their kids are going to 
         get into as they grow.  And if you look at what the National Football League is doing with 
         drugs you have to scratch your head.  And a case in point is Bam Morris.  Bam Morris last 
         year was a running back for the Pittsburgh Steelers.  The off season Bam Morris and a friend 
         were caught with an incredible amount of marijuana in the trunk of BamÕs car.  It seems to be 
         the number is like 6 pounds of marijuana maybe even more than that.  And Bam Morris pled 
         no contest which is the equivalent of guilty in exchange for probation, and then the League 
         using their drug policy suspends him for something like 6 games, 4 or 6 games, IÕm not sure 
         which.  The Pittsburgh Steelers have always been a clean team in the National Football 
         League and have not wanted to have these kinds of disruptions on the team.  TheyÕve always 
         had the reputation of being one of the cleanest teams on the NFL in terms of drugs.  So they 
         released Bam Morris before the season started as a result of his plea.  Had Bam Morris played 
         for the Pittsburgh Steelers this year, and it has not happened, it is reported that Bam Morris 
         would of earned $187,000.  Bam Morris has been signed by the ex-Cleveland Browns, now the 
         Baltimore Ravens at $800,000 a year and will play in 2 weeks for the remainder of the 
         season.  So hereÕs the lesson.  This is the picture that is presented by the modern day NFL on 
         drugs.  Get caught.  6 pounds or whatever it was of marijuana the back of your car in Texas, 
         admit to it, plead guilty, no contest, get released by your team, undergo the league drug policy 
         and come out richer after 6 weeks.  No where in society would this happen.  Let me get 
         caught with 6 pounds of marijuana in the trunk of my car and have a falling out with my 
         broadcast partners here over it and get picked up, and then have an audience, I mean let me 
         get caught with 6 pounds of marijuana or worse in the trunk of my car and have my life 
         improve as a result.  Now this has happened in the case of Bam Morris and I wanted to ask 
         Horning about it because heÕs come under the harsh punishment of the NFL.  He was 
         suspended for a full season for gambling.  A full season he couldnÕt play.  DidnÕt get paid or 
         anything.  And now these guys are doing drug, violating the law and they end up actually 
         having their situations improved.  You have to ask yourself why.  What is the NFLÕs policy 
         really aimed at here.  Are they so talent starved that the so few people capable of playing 
         the game at the NFL level that they have to make adjustments so as to keep the fans happy 
         because of the price of everything in the NFL.  Tickets, advertising, television packages, or 
         what have you.   Or is it that they just havenÕt come to grips with the proper policy, they 
         donÕt have a....hey, Michael Irving.  Compared to what Horning did, Michael Irving should be 
         gone for a year and perhaps Bam Morris as well, but it isnÕt happening and thatÕs at variance 
         with whatÕs happening or what is said to be desired by the rest of society.   Be back in a 
         minute.

         ItÕs open line Friday and Rush Limbaugh still trying to re-establish connections via global 
         positioning satellites with Paul Horning enroute to South Bend, Indiana to broadcast a Notre 
         Dame/Ohio State Game tomorrow.  Ohio State just came off a 72-0 trouncing of Pitt and 
         Notre Dame...Mr. Snerdley says, ÒWhereÕs Pitt?Ó (Rush laughs)  Cellular call from Pittsburgh, 
         Bill hi, welcome to the Rush Limbaugh Program you are on Open Line Friday.
         
         BILL
         
         Very good, how are you Rush?  Very briefly I was at a Pirates game the night before last, the 
         last home game of the season and it was a testimonial farewell to much beloved Manager, 
         Jim Leland.  In the middle of the game as they were running some other credits through up on 
         the score board they cut in with a little video tape of Bill Clinton who had been in town the 
         


         same day and announcing his plan to give out inflation proof bonds.  He managed somehow 
         to work into his speech his own testimonial to Jim Leland.  At that point the most 
         amazing....(Rush interrupts)
         
         RUSH
         
         Try to shore up his falling poll numbers here in the very liberal and union oriented 
          Pittsburgh.
         
         BILL
         
         The most amazing thing happened.  The crowds response to BillÕs testimonial and even his 
         appearance on the scoreboard was to boo him.  Twenty-five thousand people, 3 times as 
         many as should of been present for a nothing game appeared to absolutely reject the 
         President.   Now I donÕt know if thatÕs because we had 25,000 Dole supporters in the 
         stadium or just some kind of reflection on the malaise that may characterize Clinton 
         support.
         
         RUSH
         
         I got a letter from a guy in Pittsburgh in an e-mail note who recounted the story, but you say 
         the crowd was 25, he said the crowd was 23,000.  We have a little bit of a variance there, but 
         he pointed out the same thing you did.  When I read his letter and as I listen to your call my 
         reaction is letÕs not be so eager to think ClintonÕs in trouble that will take something like 
         this and assume heÕs in big trouble.  It could well be that no politician is welcome in a sports 
         environment where theyÕre honoring Jim LelandÕs night.   What the hell are we going to 
         inject a politician whoever it is.   WeÕre trying to honor Jim Leland.  It might just of been 
         that.  Now we can hope of course that in addition to that it could of been to a reaction based 
         on sincere disapproval of der Schlickmeister, a combination of those 2 would be very, very 
         nice.  But you have to figure, you know Clinton went and threw out the first pitch at a 
         Baltimore Orioles opener a couple of years ago.  Got booed there left and right too, and it 
         happens.  Now he gets booed at sporting events more than any other President in American 
         history.
         
         
         
         BILL
         
         But you know your take could be perfectly correct.  I just wondered though if the fans really 
         resented his presence, maybe they just ignored the whole thing and go out and buy another 
         beer and another hot dog  and forget about it.  
         
         RUSH
         
         Now, do not discount the absolute dislike for  politicians in much of American today.  You 
         got 25,000 people at a Pittsburgh Pirates game and it is, the Pirates are out of it, this is 
         solely to honor Jim Leland.  You got people there for an entirely different reason than 
         youÕd have otherwise, and to see this smiling mug of der Schlickmeister maybe more than 
         they could take.   HereÕs another thing.  WerenÕt Dole and Kemp in Pittsburgh at a rally at 
         Point State Park either the same day or the day before.
         
         BILL
         
         Ah no, no they havenÕt.  TheyÕve been at Point State Park I think about 3 or 4 weeks ago.
         
         RUSH
         
         Ok, ok.  They were there.  How many people did they draw?  It wasnÕt that many was it?
         
         BILL
         
         I heard it was about ten thousand
         
         RUSH
         
         Ten Thousand.  It was that many.  I thought it was in the hundreds.  I canÕt get the story 
         


         straight on the crowds theyÕre drawing.  Because I was going to say if they only drew 
         hundreds then you would have to say the booing of der Schlickmeister may not have 
         anything to do with the Presidential Campaign.  We can all, of course, sit around and hope, 
         but I think you have to be at least open to the possibility that the fans there were there 
         specifically for Leland.  Now even though the President praised Leland they may have 
         looked at it, Òoh come on, I see a campaigner when I see it and I know an insincere 
         campaigner when I see one.  This is not the time for that-boooooo!Ó.  
         
         BILL
         
         I donÕt know.  Pittsburgh may represent one of the elements of the Democratic corps, but 
         these people are not that cynical.   Twenty-five thousand is also perhaps 1% of the total 
         population in the market here and it may be a better cross section then CNN, Time, 
          Newsweek, Gallop or anybody else is getting.
         
         


         
         RUSH
         
         Perhaps, perhaps.  I mean because it is such a hotbed.  You know I lived in Pittsburgh for 5 
         years back in the early 70Õs and I have some friends that still live there and I know the 
         political makeup of Pittsburgh.  You got a lot of Democrats there simply because their 
         grandparents were Democrats.  Other than that they donÕt know why theyÕre Democrats.  
         They used to work in the mills, big steel and coal region, and it was heavily unionized.  You 
         got some people that just because of tradition are Democrat donÕt really know why any more 
         in an ideological sense but it still is very heavily Democratic in that way, but you know some 
         of the recent city elections in Pittsburgh and youÕve seen some Republicans win.  So you 
         could be right.  I mean I certainly hope you are and IÕm not trying to put a damper on it, 
         IÕm just trying to be realistic.  Always keep things in proper perspective.  Bottom line is der 
         Schlickmeister was booed by 25,000 at Three Rivers Stadium and just on the surface, just on 
         the face of that thatÕs a positive, and so weÕll take it.   Bill, thanks for the call I appreciate 
         it.
         
         You know the liberals are acting anything but confident.  Yesterday of course David Bonyer 
         of the Pitt Yorkie of the Democratic members of Congress, the House of Representatives, 
         decided to launch after Mr. Newt.  They are continuing to hound Mr. Newt on ethics charges, 
         and I tell you what this goes back to.  This is simply the Democrats paying back Mr. Newt 
         for daring to oust Fort Worthless Jim, the ex-democratic speaker who had a shaky and 
         flimflam book deal that was basically a deal between him and the teamsters.  And you know 
         you can say if youÕre going to go after somebody on ethics you better be squeaky clean 
         yourself because theyÕre gonna come back at you and thatÕs what theyÕve been doing after 
         since Mr. Newt became Speaker.  And Bonyer is not letting up the ethics committee says we 
         are going to look further into it.  I want you to listen to the Pitt Yorkie himself, David 
         Bonyer, in his announcement yesterday.   
         
         	ÒWe are here today to call on the Republican Caucus to demand Newt
         	 Gingrich step aside as Speaker of the House until the investigation of
         	 the Independent Council is completed.   This is a man who has hidden
         	 the truth from the Ethics Committee and hidden the truth from the
         	 American people.Ó
         
         Oh dream on.  You guys where were you you got a 20 point lead, 15 point lead, what are you 
         guys panicking for?  You know I would almost make this deep if I were Mr. Newt.  And say, 
         ÒFine Mr. Bonyer you want me to step down while the investigation continues, fine.  Then 
         you go get Bill Clinton to step down while the numerous special prosecutors investigating his 
         past continue their work.  I mean if we should step down during investigations then get Bill 
         Clinton to step down.   ItÕs silly.  This is absolutely ridiculous and thereÕs other news with 
         Bonyer.  You know heÕs got a candidate opposing him, serious candidate for the first time.  
         Her name is Susie Heinz.  She casts an imposing figure.  SheÕs 6Õ tall, and she has pulled to 
         within 10 points of Bonyer in their Michigan district.  Bonyer is from Mt. Clemens.  Bonyer 
         has never had a serious challenge, so organizers of a scheduled debate next week between 
         Bonyer and Susie Heinz said that the event has been canceled because of numerous 
         disagreements.  There was to have been a debate Monday at St. Clair Community College.  It 
         has officially been canceled because the candidates are at odds at the format and proposed 
         restrictions of what could be discussed.   Listen to this.  
         Susie Heinz, Republican challenger to David Bonyer....I want to tell you something folks for 
         those of you in Michigan in this district.  Getting rid of Bonyer would be as meaningful as the 
         George Nethercut defeat of Tom Foley in Washington last year.  And for the first time itÕs 
         realistically possible as I say if there are only 10 points separating these two, 6 weeks out, 
         and Bonyer has never faced this sort of touch challenge.  Now listen.  Susie Heinz said that 
         David Bonyer wanted to limit the questions in the debate to a total of three.  No more than 3 
         questions in the debate and she said that Bonyer insisted that his wifeÕs employment in his 
         office be off limits.  Now why?  What are you trying to hide Congressman Bonyer?  Susie 
         Heinz says how can he blame it on us when it wasnÕt us who were trying to impose ridiculous 
         restrictions.  Only 3 questions Bonyer says and donÕt ask me anything about my wife 
         working in my office.   All of a sudden the inquisitor, David Bonyer, the man who sits high 
         above it all and tells us the ethics of other members is to be questioned,  doesnÕt want to be 
         questioned himself.  Hummmm!   Would he have this reaction if his opponent were a man?   
         He is somehow reluctant to debate the imposing figure of Susie Heinz, a woman who has 
         pulled to within 10 points, a limit of 3 questions in the debate and no questions about the 
         role his wife plays in being employed in his, BonyerÕs office.  I think this requires an ethics 
         investigation on its surface, and I think Bonyer should be forced to step down as a member of 
         


         Congress while this investigation of what just is his wife doing in his office is conducted.  
         WeÕll take a break here ladies and gentlemen.

         We go back to the phones on Open Line Friday.  This is Rush Limbaugh.  Lynn, our ole 
          friend from Hammonton, NJ.  Hi Lynn
         
         LYNN
         
         Hi Rush how are you?   The reason I wanted to call you today was because of the uprising in 
         Israel by the Palestinians, and what IÕve listen to between the television news and all the 
         interviews and reading the papers for the most part what IÕm hearing is, is that all IsraelÕs 
         fault, itÕs Benjamin NetanayouÕs fault.  He was the one who decided to open this tunnel.  The 
         fact of the matter is that that tunnel has been open and operational for 8 years.  What they 
         did was open an exit from the tunnel.....(Rush interrupts)
         
         RUSH
         
         Precisely, because you couldnÕt get out you had to turn around and come....itÕs only 3 feet 
         wide.
         
         LYNN
         
         And all of the Arab, the Palestinian merchants in the area of the exit were over the moon 
         because of all the tourist business because they would then receive, but all thatÕs been set aside 
         and Clinton has decided Òoh IÕll blame Netanayou because heÕs a conservative and he has 
         been talking heads into going along with this nonsense.Ó   It is insane to presume that Yassar 
         Arafat, who is for all intents and purposes a serial killer of Jews, and has always been, and IÕm 
         sorry I donÕt believe in redemption that much.   I really donÕt.  I donÕt think that a leopard 
         changes his spots.  I think that Yassar Arafat is a danger to his own people and the rest of the 
         world because I think he is evil.  
         
         RUSH
         
         Well let me tell you something else thatÕs bad about this though.  Here you have....if thereÕs 
         ever been a knee jerk reaction its this.  So eager are Bill Clinton and his fellow liberals, 
         journalists and world leaders around the world to blame conservative Jews for this, that they 
         donÕt even bother to look in to find out how it might of happened.  And in the process of 
         blaming the Jews there are only going to extend this fighting.  TheyÕre only going to make 
         the Arabs think aha we can keep going because we got the world on our side, everybodyÕs, 
         finally we succeeded in making the world mad at the Jews again.  Bill Clinton ought to have 
         his head examined.  HeÕs just given carte blanche to the anti-Jewish crowd around the world 
         to keep going here by blaming the Jews for this. 
         
         LYNN
         
         Exactly.  But not only that Rush also a point missed on those people that 2-1/2 years ago it 
         was the Israeli government that was then in power who armed the Palestinian local police 
         force and those are the very same guns and the very same bullets that are now being used to 
         shoot Israeli soldiers.  I mean its very easy for people sitting in the comfort of the United 
         States of America to try to condemn Netanayou and this new government.  It is quite 
         something else to be on the receiving end of those guns and bullets.  Its quite something else 
         when as an Israeli you are subjected to bombs, blowing up your buffers, killing your children, 
         your young men in uniform being blown to pieces, all of that doesnÕt seem to matter.  It goes 
         by the wayside.  I wonder if the same situation were to arise in this country where you had a 
         small group without a so-called homeland who decided well weÕll set up shop in Manhattan and 
         then weÕre going to turn around and weÕre going to shoot your police officers with the guns 
         that your government gave us.
         
         RUSH
         
         


         Ah, then blame talk radio.
         
         LYNN
         
         Well exactly
         
         Rush
         
         For being complicit and use it as an excuse to shut some of us up.  I kid you not.  Lynn your 
         right on the money on this.  Knee jerk reaction donÕt even investigate it.  I mean 
         Netanayou wasnÕt even in the country.  Netanayou was at a memorial service at a Nazi 
         Concentration Camp when all this happened, but immediately.....see Clinton canÕt get over 
         whatÕs happened here, canÕt get over Netanayou won...even Shimon Perez has started ripping 
         into Netanayou ala Clinton at the United Nations ripping into Americans.  I mean its, its 
         a....the left around the world knows that theyÕre in their last legs and theyÕre reacting with 
         hysterical panic and seizing every opportunity they can to turn the tide in their favor, but all 
          theyÕve done here with this is just encourage the warfare against Jews in Israel by blaming the 
         Jews for this as Bill Clinton has done.

         CHUCK
         
         Hello Rush.  Dittos from Illinois.  I know one of your frustrations is so many people calling 
         to try to advise Bob Dole how to run his campaign and the press bias.
         
         RUSH
         
         IÕm over that now.  Go ahead if you got advice, go ahead
         
         CHUCK
         
         Well actually IÕm a 100% Bob Dole supporter and I like the way heÕs running his campaign, 
         but thereÕs one item on this debate flak thatÕs going, how to organize it, and thereÕs a lectern 
         problem that Bob DoleÕs having, you know he needs that flat lectern...
         
         RUSH
         
         He needs a flat lectern to be able to take notes during the town meeting format debate.
         
         CHUCK
         
         ThatÕs right.   And I want to know where the PC police are on this.  Here he is handicapped, 
         he needs that because of his handicap, and Bob DoleÕs refusing it.
         
         RUSH
         
         Yeah, and then in the meantime you have the sensitive press spokesman, Mike McCurry, 
         referring to Dole as the Titanic Juggernaut of Debaters.
         
         


         
         CHUCK
         
         Absolutely.  You would think that he would give Dole anything he needed because they have 
         all the....(Rush interrupts)
         
         RUSH
         
         Well maybe it is that Clinton really doesnÕt want to debate.  You  know few front runners 
         really do what do they got to gain by it.  You have Clinton, whether its a 10 point or 15 
         point lead.  What is there to gain by debating.  ThereÕs nothing they think that all you can 
         do is set yourself up to lose but you have to do it in the PR sense, but I think they know that 
         Dole is not the cream puff in a debate and they know that they think he is or everybody else 
         thinks he is and they know that their guy Clinton is vulnerable to a whole bunch of stuff in a 
         debate.
         
         CHUCK
         
         Well why doesnÕt Bob Dole make some mileage on this from the handicap perspective and 
         (Rush interrupts)
         
         RUSH
         
         He never has and heÕs not going to start now.  ThereÕs no way, no way heÕs going to do that. 
          ThatÕs not in him at all.  ThatÕs not part of his makeup and it would disappoint a lot of 
         people if he did.  He doesnÕt want to make of himself a victim of anything, and I donÕt blame 
         him.  Anyway Chuck thanks much for the call.  Not enough time here to be fair with people 
         who are left this hour on the phone so hold them all Mr. Snerdley till the next hour.  Most of 
         you, many of you, have probably seen by now the videotape of the last statement of Richard 
         Allen Davis in that San Jose courtroom yesterday.  If you havenÕt we have the audio and weÕll 
         treat you to it in the monologue segment of the next hour.  In addition, how many of you 
         saw Larry King live last night on the Clinton News Network guest hosted by Greta van 
         Susteran.  If you didnÕt I watched a little of it, not much because it was tough to take.  The 
         guests were Richard Allen DavisÕ sister and her husband.   And IÕll tell you what little of it I 
         had to stomach to watch after we play you the audio excerpt of Richard Allen DavisÕ last 
         statement and other items of course on the agenda after this break.
         
         
         COMMERCIAL
         
         
         RUSH
         
         Welcome back my friends.  So nice to have you along.  This is the Rush Limbaugh Program, 
         etc.
         
         So Richard Allen Davis takes a young little girl away from her home, kidnaps her, and 
         murders her, 12 year old Polly Kloss.  During the trial and after the, actually shortly after 
         the jury verdict of guilty is read Richard Allen Davis turns to the TV camera in the 
         courtroom and flips the camera, in essence America, the bird, he shot everybody the finger.  
         That my friends many thought was the last straw.  It was one thing for this guy to kidnap and 
         murder a 12 year old girl, but to then to flip America off we couldnÕt abide that.  No because 
         many of us in America seemed willing to forgive.  If somebody would just say that they didnÕt 
         mean it, or if somebody would just say they are sorry.  If somebody would just say please 
         forgive me I know I did it, but I feel terrible about it.   We have a bunch of very susceptible 
         suckers in this country who will look past the horrible deed and forgive it or a portion of it if 
         somebody simply says theyÕre sorry, but Richard Allen Davis gave up any hope of 
         redemption with the American people when he flipped us all the bird.  Yesterday it was time 
         for Richard Allen Davis to be sentenced in a San Jose courtroom.  The Judge made a point of 
         saying that these sentences are very difficult, they are very tough to do in those cases, but 
         Richard Allen Davis yesterday made it actually very easy.  And this is why after Richard 
         Allen Davis was sentenced, or before he was sentenced, he got a chance to make a final 
         statement to the court and this was it.
         
         	ÒI would also like to state for the record that the main reason I know I did
         	 not attempt any lewd act that night was because of a statement the young
         


         	 girl made to me when walking her up the embankment.   Just donÕt do me
         	 like my dad.  If I have to pay my dues so should you.Ó  
         
         	ÒBurn in hell, Davis.Ó  
         
         All right that concludes the statement Richard Allen Davis with one flailing attempt, 
          attempts to accuse the father of sexually molesting and abusing his own daughter, and it was 
         after that the Judge says, Òthis is easyÓ.   Then the father, Mark Kloss, lunged actually lunged 
         at Davis and they had to escort him out of the courtroom.   He had a good line he said, ÒSee 
         you in hell, Davis.  Say hello to Dahmer, say hello to Hitler, and say hello..Ó.  He didnÕt say 
         Òsee you in hellÓ, but he said ÒyouÕll be in hell.  Say hello, when you get to hell say hello to 
         Hitler, say hello to Dahmer, say hello to Bundy.Ó  So finally, finally, AmericaÕs outraged over 
         this.  Finally, look at what itÕs taken for this country to get outraged.  American people are 
         outraged.  TheyÕre outraged over flipping the bird and now this statement.  Now it would 
         seem to me there would be an equal amount of outrage over the crime itself, but and maybe 
         there was, but we just didnÕt see it. 
         
         Now moving on.  Yesterday ladies and gentlemen we discussed the issues of family leave on 
         this program and we discussed what will happen in the future.  Bill Clinton wants, and Mrs. 
         Clinton, remember she went to the birthing center, where she was greeted by signs that said 
         Òyour too late Mrs. Clinton these made itÓ.  Referring to the newborns at the birthing 
         center.  It used to be a maternity ward in a hospital and now they call it a birthing center.  
         And Mrs. Clinton went there to announce that Americans need an additional 24 hours a year 
         personal time to handle such things, you see 12 weeks family medical leave is not enough, 
         you need an additional 24 hours or 3 work days to take the dog to the vet or get a manicure 
         or whatever else that you need to do.   And we spent a number of hours yesterday actually an 
         hour and a half talking about this and where we were headed and I can show you where weÕre 
         headed.  (Rush rumples up papers)
         
         I have a story here ladies and gentlemen from Stutgart, Germany.  Listen carefully because if 
         the Clintons, and the Bonyers and the Gepharts and the Al Gores get their way this will soon 
         be a story here.  More than 25,000 employees at the luxury car maker, Mercedes Benz, 
         staged protests Thursday in response to 20% cuts in sick pay announced 2 days ago by the 
         companyÕs parent group, Domler Benz ag.  At the Mercedes car production plant in 
         Sindelfiegen the entire early crew of 15,000 workers left work 2-1/2 hours before the shift 
         was over.  Some 6,000 workers at the companyÕs other factory also stopped work as did 
         another 3,000 in the port city of Breman where employees quit working for an hour.  
         Another 2,000 employees demonstrated in front of the Mercedes Benz works at Esslingheim 
         Midighim as the day started with signs that read Òwe will not be plundered this time we wonÕt 
         pay tax gifts for the rich.Ó  ÒThis is just the beginningÓ,  said Helmut Lens, head of the 
         Mercedes Benz work council.  He said it was a shame that Mercedes Benz and the mother 
         concern, Domler Benz, chose to lead the way in breaking workerÕs contracts which 
         guaranteed them 100% pay on sick leave.  Domler Benz announced the cuts Tuesday 
         effective October 1.  It said that while previous federal law mandated 100% of normal wages 
         when a worker is out sick a new law passed in Parliament on September 13 allows them to cut 
         that to 80%.  The law applies to short term illnesses lasting up to 6 weeks.  (Rush rumples 
         papers)   Short term illnesses lasting up to 6 weeks.  German unions and the opposition in 
         Parliament have criticized the cuts as taking from the poor to give to the rich.  The 
         government says they are necessary to insure Germany remains a viable location for industrial 
         investment and to create jobs in a time of 10% unemployment.   This, my friends, is where 
         the United States of America is heading if Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton and David Bonyer 
         and Richard Gephart and Tom Dashiel and Donna Shalela and Janet Reno and Robert B. Rishe 
         and Robert Rubin, et al, get their way.  WeÕll be headed to 10% unemployment every time an 
         attempt to save money is made it will be castigated and criticized as an attempt to enrich the 
         wealthy.  Sick pay.  Sick pay.  What did I tell you people yesterday.  What did I tell you.   
         How many people already use sick days when theyÕre not sick and use them for personal days.  
         And how many personal days do people have in addition to sick days and vacation days 
         already in the United States.   This is what happens my friends because a government cannot 
         continue to give, and give, and give and continue to increase the amount.  At some point its 
         going to go broke and have to start reclaiming some of those give aways, and the people who 
         have been conditioned to receive the give aways are not going to sit by peacefully and have it 
         taken away from them.  A glimpse of the future and we look at the Mercedes Benz situation 
         in Stutgart, Germany.  WeÕll be back -1-800-282-2882 if youÕd like to join us.

         HELEN
         
         Hi Rush itÕs a pleasure.  Rush I am inclined to think that the media blitz that weÕre getting 
         here, the pictures of you know the peoples, the pictures representing the Palestinian 
         perspective.  IÕm inclined to think that the media blitz in Israel and in the United States is 
         an effort to destabilize the Netanayou government...  (Rush interrupts)
         
         RUSH
         
         WhatÕs your first clue?   ThereÕs no question thatÕs what this is.  ItÕs an effort to destabilize 
          the Netanayou government thatÕs at the very least thatÕs what itÕs an effort to do
         
         HELEN
         
         Yeah, and you see because youÕre looking at the pictures and the people they are all shown 
         from the Palestinian perspective.   HereÕs a wounded Palestinian whoÕs been shot by Israelis.
         
         RUSH
         
         ItÕs probably Arafat and Company video.
         
         HELEN
         
         Yeah, because I mean why why create such a crisis over the opening of a tunnel.  It is not 
         logical.  You know they knew this was going to happen and the response is extreme.  You 
         see because Netanayou has not been folding and bending over like Perez and Riabendetta.  
         You see?
         
         RUSH
         
         Oh I know, IÕm fully apprised and aware.  Yes, I see.  I know.  I just think its extremely 
         amazing politically for Bill Clinton to be blaming the Jews on this.  IÕm IÕm just amazed and 
         the chorus of blame of the Jews that you hear in mainstream journalism today the elitist 
         commentators, other world leaders, yeah this situation I think Arafat was just waiting on and as 
         I say as I said last hour as President Clinton and the rest of this intelligencia continued to 
         blame the Jews they just reload the guns of the Arabs of ArafatÕs soldiers.  TheyÕre just 
         continuing to reload the ammo.
         
         HereÕs Tom in Detroit.  Welcome to the Rush Limbaugh Program.  Hello
         
         TOM
         
         Rush its a pleasure.  The reason I called is I wanted to indicate that I disagree with Clinton for 
         this reason that Arafat according to the Wall Street Journal, I think it was yesterday or today 
         in an editorial indicated that Arafat started a couple of weeks ago to criticize the Israeli 
         government and actually the article indicated that his rhetoric was very inciting I mean he 
         was really bringing these people up to a frenzy and then when this happened, when this gate 
         was opened or broken open to provide access, you know, then these people are already wound 
         up and the thing was ready to go.  
         
         RUSH
         
         Right.   And then we decided to grab a can of gasoline and throw it on the burning fire when 
         Bill Clinton blames the Jews.  
         
         TOM
         
         ThatÕs right.   ThatÕs right.  You know, so, thereÕs a lot going on over there.   ItÕs a very 
         complicated situation.  I was there about a year ago and we were going through a tour through 
         Israel.  Of course, thatÕs a very profitable business for those people out there, and we had an 
         


         Arab guide incidentally and he said my biggest enemy is CNN.   He said all they do is broadcast 
         around the world how bad it is here and it really isnÕt all that bad.  It was kind of an 
         interesting comment.
         
         RUSH
         
         Yeah, yeah, IÕve been there too.  But you canÕt, youÕre right I mean you canÕt escape the 
         fact that say to somebody, Òhey want to go to Israel next weekÓ.   ÒNoooooo youÕre not 
         going to get me over there in that.Ó  There is this image that itÕs a constant bloodbath.  But 
         let me tell you something.   Folks compared to the peace that we know in this country it is a 
         blood bath everyday.  Compared to the way we live, and this is what Netanayou and his 
         government are simply sick of, and thereÕs got to be a peace that recognizes IsraelÕs 
         sovereignty and security.  ThatÕs all and they donÕt feel that the peace plan as it was headed 
         had those 2 interests as paramount.   Tom thanks for the call.  Nice to hear from you.

         MARLIN
         
         Mostly dittos great one.  Listen IÕve got a great idea.  We can open up a great can of worms 
         if Bob DoleÕs campaign would suit Bill Clinton using the AmericanÕs with Disabilities Act for 
          not allowing him the kind of lectern he wants.
         
         RUSH
         
         In order to debate
         
         MARLIN
         
         Yes.   You know that one out of 5 people in the United States are disabled.  Superman said so 
         at the Democratic National Convention.  I heard him say that.
         
         RUSH
         
         Yes.   Well you know why.  ThatÕs how many drink.  You can be a total disorderly 
         destructive drunk on the job and if somebody can say that you have a medical 
         predisposition toward intolerance of alcohol you suffer from a disability and you cannot be 
         disciplined or fired for it.
         
         MARLIN
         
         Exactly, and thatÕs the can of worms that needs to be opened.  That would give an 
         opportunity for Bob Dole to point out how ridiculous that the usage under the Clinton 
         Administration is of the American With Disabilities Act.
         
         


         
         RUSH
         
         I get your point.  Well what youÕre saying is exciting and funny and full of yuks for us.  I 
         think that the Dole people would think its too close to the edge and might backfire.  Cause 
         the last thing Bob Dole is ever going to do is try to make himself out to be a victim or open 
         himself up to be accused being a victim on the basis of his war wounds.  The Democrats IÕm 
         sure as soulless as they can be are sitting around waiting for Dole to champion this injury 
         because IÕm sure theyÕve been prepared for an assault on ClintonÕs military past or lack of it, 
         and IÕm sure theyÕre just waiting for Dole to use that and jump down his throat for trying to 
         portray himself as some sort of hero, and I just donÕt think that he wants to make any big 
         deal about this that would be interpreted by people as Dole thinks heÕs being treated unfairly 
         because of his war wounds.   I think that the opportunity for this to go haywire would be too 
         great in their mind.  HeÕs going to keep plugging.  We need a flat lectern I can write on I got 
         to take notes during this town hall debate, and I need a lectern that is not at an angle so that 
         my papers donÕt fall off of it.  ThatÕs all it is.

         ANN
         
         Yes, I was just thinking the reason Clinton was backing the Arab States because he lost their 
         good graces when he went against Iran.
         
         RUSH
         
         I hadnÕt thought of that.  I think thatÕs possible, but IÕm  I donÕt know.  What is there to 
         gain by getting back in their good graces of the Arabs.
         
         ANN
         
         Well they wouldnÕt let him use any of their air bases or anything when he tried to go against 
         Hussein.
         
         RUSH
         
         But they still wonÕt.  I mean if we tried to do the same again they wonÕt because they hate 
         Kurds more then they despise Saddam Hussein.  And I think that decision will be based....No 
         this has to do with ideological politics.  This has to do with conservative governments 
         triumphing and succeeding that will not be allowed to happen here or around the world as long 
         as Bill Clinton and his friends in the intelligencia and the media have anything to say about it.

         Mega dittos.  Self-employed dittos from Athens, OH.  I was just calling yesterday.  I was 
         listening to the program and CNN was running right before the program started and they 
         were talking about the 6 year old boy expelled from school from kissing a classmate on the 
         cheek.  Doctor Ruth (Rush interrupts)
         
         RUSH
         
         I saw this show (Rush mimics Dr. Ruth).  I saw this show with Dr. Ruth, Susan Estridge, who 
         appears to be gobbling the camera when she speaks and Andrea Sheldon of the Traditional 
         Values Coalition.  Now Mary Phillips started in on right wing talk show hosts and.....(Cory 
         interrupts)

         And they had to just bring you in there.  They just had to mention it.
         
         RUSH
         
         I am talk radio.  You start talking talk radio my nameÕs going to be associated with it.  Yeah 
         typical of the Clinton News Network.
         


         
         CORY
         
         Did you hear what Andrea said when she said, ÒWhat do you want him to do.  Grow up to be 
         like Bill?Ó
         
         RUSH
         
         Yes, I thought that was a great line.  Andrea Sheldon said, ÒwhatÕs the problem here?   I mean 
          heÕs in the early stages of Bill Clinton.  HeÕs right on path to growing up to be a great little 
         Bill ClintonÓ.  And, of course, they just thought that was beneath the pale.

         Program begins with an audio of one of DoleÕs speeches
         
         ÒWhat do you call someone who tries to take over the nationÕs health care system and put 
         the government in charge of itÓ.  The crowd screams ÒA Liberal!Ó  ÒWhat do you call 
         someone who twisted arms in Congress to kill the balanced budget amendment?Ó  The crowd 
         screams ÒA Liberal!Ó.   ÒWhat do you call someone who appointed a Surgeon General and 
         talked about legalizing drugs.Ó  The crowd screams ÒA Liberal!Ó  ÒYouÕre right!  Liberal! 
         Liberal! Liberal! Bill Clinton!Ó
         
         Bob Dole on fire.  Bob Dole on a roll.  Bob Dole yesterday in West Palm Beach, Florida 
         accused Bill Clinton of lying to season citizens.  Finally, he told the President to stop scaring 
         season citizens and stop lying to them about how the Republicans want to cut Medicare.  So 
         finally Bob Dole after calling Bill Clinton a liberal now gets to the issue of Bill ClintonÕs 
         honesty.  ItÕs about time.
         
         Ladies and gentlemen yesterday during the debate on the Senate floor the Senate was debating 
         whether or not to vote to override the PresidentÕs veto on partial-birth abortions.  
         Something happened.  One of those things that could never be scripted and be pulled off.  One 
         of those things that just happens out of the blue and when it does you are forced to look to 
         the heavens and ask yourself whether or not a Divine Message has been sent.   Let me tell 
         you what happened yesterday.  Barbara Boxer, during her segment, was telling stories of 
         women who chose partial-birth abortions because of serious abnormalities discovered late in 
         pregnancy.  She said these women wanted those babies.  They named those babies, Mr. 
         President.  They buried those babies with love.   Five feet away Rick Santorum of 
         Pennsylvania said in a high pleading voice he cried out from his soul, ÒWhere do we draw the 
         line?   Some people have likened this procedure to an appendectomy.  ThatÕs not an 
         appendix,Ó he shouted.  And then he pointed to a drawing of a fetus.  ÒThat is not a blob of 
         tissueÓ, he said.  ÒIt is a baby.  It is a babyÓ.   And within 2 seconds within the hushed gallery, 
         a baby cried in the United States Senate from the visitors gallery.  Within 2 seconds a babyÕs 
         cry was heard.  There was stunned silence after the babyÕs cry and not one reference to the 
         cry was made by any Senator.  You couldnÕt script it.  You couldnÕt script it and pull it off.  
         It just happened.  Right after Ms. Boxer makes the case for this procedure, Rick Santorum 
         said, ÒThatÕs not a blob of tissue.  ThatÕs a babyÓ, and a baby cried on the floor of the 
         United States Senate.
         
         Atlanta, Georgia.  Mitchell hello.  Welcome to the Rush Limbaugh Program.
         
         MITCHELL
         
         Mega dittos Rush how ya doing?  The reason I called today I was reading next weekÕs issue of 
         The Weekly Standard dated September 30.  ThereÕs a very interesting letter to the editor in 
         there from a Mr. John R. Schmidt who is the Associate Attorney General of the United 
         States.  HeÕs replying to an article written by a John Juleo about how to deal with youth 
         crime.   And in it there talking about the 100,000 police.  Unfortunately I donÕt have a good 
         documented guess for your contest on the 100,000 police (Rush interrupts)
         
         RUSH
         
         You donÕt need one.  I can tell ya that weÕve been able to determine that the funding, the 
         maximum number of cops there could be, but arenÕt, the maximum number could be so far is 
         


         20,000
         
         MITCHELL
         
         Right, well thatÕs what he said in this article.  Of course, he claims they funded half of these 
         100,000 but that there are about 20,000 on the beat now.
         
         RUSH
         
         And some of them have just been transferred from one beat to another beat and theyÕre 
         called new cops so its not even 20 its not even 10.  ItÕs a joke.
         
         


         
         MITCHELL
         
         Exactly.  I just think its funny that finally we have someone from the administration whoÕs 
         gotten this number down to 20,000.  So weÕre getting closer inch by inch to an actual 
         number.
         
         RUSH
         
         Yes we are but it is interesting that the Administration is writing this letter to the editor.  I 
         wonder how long this guyÕs going to be working there?  Because the line is that thereÕs a 
         100,000 cops out there.  And now hereÕs the administration, the assistant attorney general, 
         writing in a funding for 20, but....
