WEBVTT - Rush Limbaugh December 7th 2017

0:00:00.240 --> 0:00:03.840
<v Speaker 1>Last week, a group of twelve liberal religious leaders were

0:00:04.000 --> 0:00:07.520
<v Speaker 1>arrested for creating a disturbance at the Heart Senate office building.

0:00:07.520 --> 0:00:10.600
<v Speaker 1>They say their protest is a restart of the Poor

0:00:10.640 --> 0:00:13.480
<v Speaker 1>People's Campaign that Dr Martin Luther King was leading in

0:00:13.600 --> 0:00:16.880
<v Speaker 1>nineteen sixty eight. The group is planning protests in state

0:00:16.960 --> 0:00:21.360
<v Speaker 1>capitals around the country to restart the moral narrative about poverty.

0:00:21.560 --> 0:00:24.400
<v Speaker 1>They hope to influence the two thousand eighteen midterm elections.

0:00:24.480 --> 0:00:27.960
<v Speaker 1>Hurricane Katrina van der Huvel wrote a Washington Post column

0:00:28.000 --> 0:00:31.600
<v Speaker 1>to support this revived to Poor People's campaign, and folks,

0:00:31.680 --> 0:00:36.240
<v Speaker 1>it was a litany of the usual liberal complaints, income inequality,

0:00:36.880 --> 0:00:42.920
<v Speaker 1>mass incarceration, voting disenfranchisement, catastrophic climate change, really hard on

0:00:42.960 --> 0:00:46.800
<v Speaker 1>the poor, and all arrest. Her major thrust was that

0:00:46.880 --> 0:00:49.880
<v Speaker 1>Republicans care only about the rich and big corporations while

0:00:49.960 --> 0:00:54.120
<v Speaker 1>the little guys suffers and suffers some more so fifty

0:00:54.200 --> 0:00:57.360
<v Speaker 1>years after Dr King's Poor People Campaign, the left wants

0:00:57.440 --> 0:01:01.560
<v Speaker 1>us to believe that nothing has changed. There's been zero progress.

0:01:01.560 --> 0:01:07.319
<v Speaker 1>America's unjust, it's unfair, hell bent on discriminating against people,

0:01:07.720 --> 0:01:10.759
<v Speaker 1>throwing innocent people in jail, making sure the poor stay poor.

0:01:11.200 --> 0:01:13.640
<v Speaker 1>So I have to ask, where were all of these

0:01:13.680 --> 0:01:18.200
<v Speaker 1>socially just morally upright liberals hiding during the Obama years.

0:01:18.280 --> 0:01:21.240
<v Speaker 1>They certainly weren't organizing protests on behalf of the poor

0:01:21.360 --> 0:01:23.800
<v Speaker 1>during those eight years. What happened to the poor? Where

0:01:23.800 --> 0:01:26.560
<v Speaker 1>were the poor? Were they not poor? Did Obama cure

0:01:26.640 --> 0:01:30.040
<v Speaker 1>poverty and Trump bring it back? What happened? Any ideas?
