BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Let's review what we've got here. We've got Hugo Chavez, who has said that Europeans came and massacred Indians and black Africans, to an audience at an African church and Harlem and they just went nuts and they applauded and so forth. We have Charlie Rangel coming out and saying (summarized), "Hey, hey, hey, hey, we can criticize him but you can't," after thanking Venezuela for cheap oil for Harlem residents this winter. Then he begged Chavez to understand that it's not appropriate for him to come and do this. We went back in time; we played audio sound bites of real criticism of President Bush by Charlie Rangel in which he has basically accused Bush of the same thing that Chavez did: massacring people after Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans.

We've also dug up some other things from Rangel. On Republicans winning the House, he said -- and I'm quoting him here, Charlie Rangel said: "It's not spic and N[word] anymore. They say, 'Let's cut taxes.'" In 1995, Charlie Rangel described a House Ways and Means vote that closed a tax loophole as being "just like under Hitler." In June of 2005, Charlie Rangel said, "The Iraq war is the biggest fraud ever committed on the people of this country. This is just as bad as the six million Jews being killed." June of 2005, Charlie Rangel, comparing the Iraq war to the Holocaust, and these guys dare ask why Hugo Chavez and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad come to the United States and criticize this country and their president?

What the hell have you been doing?

The point is, ladies and gentlemen, that anybody who cares -- and I'm telling you the people in the Drive-By Media don't, as evidenced by the fact that Chavez's speech at the UN is buried this inside both the New York Times and the Washington Post. You won't find any reference to it on the front page. The idea that this is somehow happening in a vacuum is absurd. The stage has been set. These two guys are simply doing what they have been listening to Democrats and liberals in this country do for the last five years. Now, when he was walking the streets of Harlem this afternoon after his -- it may have been before his speech, I don't know.

Hugo Chavez today "told a group of passers-by: 'Bush is an alcoholic, a sick man with a lot of hang-ups.' 'He walks like John Wayne....' 'He doesn't know anything about politics, he got there because of Daddy.' Bush's father, George Bush, was also a US president." This is a news story. So he's a drunk. He's a sick man with a lot of hang-ups, walks like John Wayne, but doesn't know anything about politics. Let's go back and listen to Ted Turner. It's March of 2006, March 29th, receiving a prize at some meeting of an outfit called Global Understanding.

TURNER: Had never been out of the country but once in his entire life when he was elected president. (laughing) Fortunately, quite a few mistakes made, ahm, when you do that, better to go to school, you know, and learn there (laughing) than learn -- and this guy's got the nuclear trigger under his finger, too. Reformed alcoholic. (laughing) Nothing wrong with that. (laughing) Might decide to get drunk again. (laughing) Sometimes they do slip.
RUSH: Okay, so here's Ted Turner accusing George W. Bush of being a drunk with his finger on the nuclear trigger. We're outraged when Hugo Chavez calls Bush an alcoholic, a sick man with a lot of hang-ups, but I ask you -- and this thing Ted Turner, apprised of global understanding, a bunch of socialist libs getting together and congratulating themselves on their eliteness and their brilliance and their single-handed ability to save the world from all of the plebes and the bourgeois that live in this world, but I'm telling you, folks, for everything you can find said by Hugo Chavez or Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, we can find an equivalent stated by countless Democrats!

There is one Hugo Chavez. There are countless millions of Democrats in this country all saying similar things, and they've been saying it a lot longer than Hugo Chavez has. For everything Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says, we can find countless Democrats, millions of them, who have been saying the same thing about Americans. They tried to destroy John Bolton's career and life. They tried to destroy Dick Cheney, Karl Rove, "Scooter" Libby, Condoleezza Rice, Donald Rumsfeld, Clarence Thomas. Look at their practices! They do nothing but smear, smear and destroy, their political opponents.

They attempt to criminalize the policies of their political opponents, as in Rangel saying that the Iraq war is equivalent to the Holocaust and the slaughter of six million Jews. Ted Turner? The list goes on and on and on. I can give you John Kerry. I could give you Pelosi. I could give you Harry Reid and Howard Dean. So every time you get outraged at something Hugo Chavez says, remember: He's a piker. He's late to the party. He's just the latest voice on the left side of the aisle. You think Hugo Chavez is closer to being a Democrat or Republican, ladies and gentlemen? Is Hugo Chavez closer to being a liberal or a conservative? Is Mahmoud Ahmadinejad closer to being a liberal or closer to being a conservative? With whom do these people most relate? To whom do they most relate? Whom they most sound like?

And then ask yourself a question: Do people on the right, do Republicans and conservatives, attempt to smear and destroy? Some people say, "Rush, that sounds like that's what you're doing today." Nope. I was minding my own business this week. I wasn't bothering anybody, never do, and all of a sudden I hear my country being attacked by a third-rate, tinhorn, nothing-but-a-bunch-of-oil little thug from South America. Then I hear no outrage from Democrats. So I decide I'm going to defend my country, and I'm going to defend the person about whom he's speaking: the president of the United States. Then I hear Mahmoud Ahmadinejad doing the same thing. I was minding my own business until these guys showed up. Then they start flapping their gums, and it's time for somebody to speak up. I did not wake up today looking for ways to attack Democrats. It's not necessary. They provide all the relevant opportunities.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: We move on to audio sound bite #6 now. Eric Shawn of Fox News ambushed Hugo Chavez in the UN hallway and gets him to repeat Democrat talking points about Hurricane Katrina. Shawn says: Why does he hate America? He replied he doesn't hate America, Chavez did, then he adds this.

CHAVEZ (via translator): As Abraham Lincoln said, democracy, the government of the peeeeople, for the peeeeople, and by the peeeeople, and not of Mafia looking for money as Al Capone, worse even than Al Capone. Those who are governing the United States today, a Mafia, genocidal and murderers. They don't care about the life of any country, not even the lives of your peeeeople. Look what's happened with Katrinaaaa.

SHAWN: So for you President Bush it's like the Mafia?

CHAVEZ (via translator): They are a Mafia.

RUSH: Yeah, so Charlie Rangel, Bush, they didn't care. It's death sentence being black in America. Look at Hurricane Katrina -- and here is Hugo Chavez mouthing a Democrat talking point: Bush wanted people to die after Hurricane Katrina, didn't care, may have even caused it. This is a sentiment that echoes Ahmadinejad. Remember Ahmadinejad in an interview said he was all distressed about the 40 or so million people without health care coverage in the United States. Look, folks, there is no question these guys are getting talking points directly or indirectly, probably indirectly, from the Democrat Party. They watch CNN International. They watch BBC. They know what these guys are saying about Bush. You can't tell me that this does not give them inspiration to say the same things, motivation, opportunity. You can't say that this doesn't happen. Remember Harry Reid to a high school civics class, on George W. Bush: "The man's father's a wonderful human being. I think this guy is a loser." So if you're upset with these guys, where is your outrage over Americans saying essentially the same things? Because these guys are latecomers to the party.
