1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,880
Speaker 1: This is Keith in Atlanta. It's great to have your Keith.

2
00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:05,480
Speaker 1: How are you doing, sir, I'm great, Rush, Thanks for

3
00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:09,240
Speaker 1: taking my call. You bet. I've been a listener since

4
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:11,240
Speaker 1: the early nineties and I've always been a fan of

5
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:13,440
Speaker 1: your nicknames. I think you and Trump have a unique

6
00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:16,119
Speaker 1: talent for that and one that I've always gotten a

7
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:18,279
Speaker 1: chuckle out of that. I almost feel like it's a

8
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 1: private joke because I'm not sure that everybody gets it.

9
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,000
Speaker 1: Is dingy, Harry. I'm pretty sure that I know the

10
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:28,160
Speaker 1: origins of it, and I was wondering if you'd indulge me. Uh,

11
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:32,360
Speaker 1: Harry Reid to me was dirty. This is a guy

12
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:36,000
Speaker 1: lying about Mitt Romney not paying his tax attend This

13
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:39,239
Speaker 1: is a guy who tried to get me censured and

14
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:41,920
Speaker 1: apologized for for claiming I was opposed to the US

15
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 1: military by creating a phony soldier. This is a guy.

16
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 1: And by the way, we raised four million dollars off

17
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,600
Speaker 1: of the letter. He wrote that the guy that was

18
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:53,280
Speaker 1: running Clear Channel at the time was Mark May. And

19
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 1: you want to talk about a brave ceo, Mark May's.

20
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,080
Speaker 1: He's the one of the sons of Lowry Mays, a

21
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 1: founder of Clear Channel. So Dingy Harry that the media

22
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 1: matters got this phony thing up. I criticized the guy

23
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 1: who was not a soldier, who was passing himself off

24
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 1: as a decorated war veteran, ripping into George W. Bush.

25
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 1: So the media says, limball rips into some guy, claims

26
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 1: he's phony soldier, which he was. Dingie Harry went to

27
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 1: the floor of the U. S. Senate to condemn me,

28
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 1: a private citizen. I wished my parents were alive to

29
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:31,319
Speaker 1: hear it. And then he demands that Mark Mays do

30
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 1: something to me, apologize for me, or what have you.

31
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:38,679
Speaker 1: Mark May's gave me the letter that Dingy Harry wrote him,

32
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 1: and I auctioned it on eBay as an example of

33
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,400
Speaker 1: your government attempting to infringe on the free speech rights

34
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 1: of an individual citizen me. I promised to match whatever

35
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 1: the highest bidder for that letter was. And somebody actually

36
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: bought that letter for two million dollars two point one

37
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: or something. I matched it, so it was over four

38
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 1: million dollars that was raised for for Marine Corps Law

39
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 1: Enforcement Foundation. Well that's that's that's Harry Reid. Well, so

40
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 1: you got Clint Eastwood out, there's dirty Harry. I can't

41
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 1: call him dirty Harry because Dirty Harry is already taken. Say,

42
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:27,360
Speaker 1: came up with Dingy because dingy is even better. Dingy

43
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 1: is dirty and cloudy and murky and filthy. So that

44
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 1: that was my thinking on it, Keith, is that what

45
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:42,079
Speaker 1: you assumed? That that's exactly exactly right. And I love

46
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: it Rush and again it makes me smile every time

47
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 1: I hear it said. Thanks a lot for everything that

48
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 1: you do. I appreciate that, Thank you very much. I

49
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 1: love those kinds of questions. How did you come up

50
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: with the name of dingy Harry? I think I know,

51
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: but I'm not sure.
