WEBVTT -  Rush Limbaugh June 16th, 2017

0:00:00.160 --> 0:00:03.480
<v Speaker 1>Shortly after Congressman Steve Scales and four others were shot

0:00:03.520 --> 0:00:06.600
<v Speaker 1>at a baseball practice. Speaker Ryan addressed House members. He

0:00:06.680 --> 0:00:11.840
<v Speaker 1>said that despite political divisions, Republicans and Democrats are one family.

0:00:12.039 --> 0:00:14.920
<v Speaker 1>An attack on one is an attack on all. His

0:00:15.040 --> 0:00:17.919
<v Speaker 1>remarks were widely praised as the right words at the

0:00:18.000 --> 0:00:21.400
<v Speaker 1>right moment. Speaker Ryan referenced a touching photo of the

0:00:21.440 --> 0:00:25.160
<v Speaker 1>Democrats softball team practicing in another field that morning in

0:00:25.400 --> 0:00:29.400
<v Speaker 1>prayer for their fallen colleagues. These Democrats were left unharmed

0:00:29.440 --> 0:00:32.720
<v Speaker 1>because the shooter did not see Republicans and Democrats as

0:00:32.760 --> 0:00:37.240
<v Speaker 1>one family. He saw Republicans as enemies who deserve to die.

0:00:37.720 --> 0:00:42.400
<v Speaker 1>James Hodgkinson, the shooter was steeped in standard liberal talking

0:00:42.479 --> 0:00:46.960
<v Speaker 1>points paving Republicans as evil. Over the years, Congressional Democrats,

0:00:47.240 --> 0:00:50.040
<v Speaker 1>their masters in the drive by media, and their buddies

0:00:50.040 --> 0:00:53.600
<v Speaker 1>in the entertainment industry have all painted Republicans with that

0:00:53.720 --> 0:00:57.440
<v Speaker 1>same brush. They've told Americans that Republicans are coming for

0:00:57.520 --> 0:01:00.400
<v Speaker 1>our children. They're coming for the poor. They're coming for

0:01:00.440 --> 0:01:03.800
<v Speaker 1>the sick, the elderly, that disabled. They've said Republicans want

0:01:03.800 --> 0:01:07.400
<v Speaker 1>to cut health programs. The Republicans want to starve school

0:01:07.480 --> 0:01:11.920
<v Speaker 1>kids that Republicans are anti woman, anti minority, anti gay,

0:01:12.040 --> 0:01:17.039
<v Speaker 1>anti immigrant, anti clean air and water, anti planet Earth.

0:01:17.319 --> 0:01:21.200
<v Speaker 1>Republican policy ideas are always portrayed in the media as

0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:26.360
<v Speaker 1>illegitimate and maybe even criminal. This shooting is the direct

0:01:26.440 --> 0:01:30.240
<v Speaker 1>result of hate, and that hate comes from the left.
