WEBVTT - Rush Limbaugh December 8th 2017

0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:04.080
<v Speaker 1>Al Green is a Democrat congressman from Texas. He finally

0:00:04.160 --> 0:00:07.440
<v Speaker 1>got what he wanted, an impeachment vote in the House,

0:00:08.000 --> 0:00:10.040
<v Speaker 1>and it went down in flames. The final vote was

0:00:10.080 --> 0:00:13.520
<v Speaker 1>three hundred and sixty four to fifty eight against, but

0:00:13.600 --> 0:00:16.880
<v Speaker 1>according to The Hill, the losing side got an unexpectedly

0:00:17.000 --> 0:00:20.680
<v Speaker 1>high number of Democrats to go along with this exercise

0:00:20.720 --> 0:00:24.159
<v Speaker 1>and futility. Now, most of the Democrat leadership voted to

0:00:24.320 --> 0:00:27.720
<v Speaker 1>table the impeach a resolution, but a hundred and twenty

0:00:27.720 --> 0:00:31.000
<v Speaker 1>six other Democrats, obviously more grounded in reality, voted with

0:00:31.080 --> 0:00:34.600
<v Speaker 1>Republicans to defeat it. Before the vote, Nancy Pelosi and

0:00:34.640 --> 0:00:38.400
<v Speaker 1>her left hand man Stenny Hoyer urged their side to

0:00:38.479 --> 0:00:42.520
<v Speaker 1>abandon the foolishness and stopped pushing for impeachment, but enough

0:00:42.600 --> 0:00:46.839
<v Speaker 1>defectors voted with Al Green to embarrass the party. So

0:00:46.920 --> 0:00:50.080
<v Speaker 1>now what, Well, the lobsided vote probably will not deter

0:00:50.280 --> 0:00:54.600
<v Speaker 1>Green and his buddies. Assistant Democrat Leader James Clyburn voted

0:00:54.640 --> 0:00:59.240
<v Speaker 1>with Green, as did Louisiana Representative Cedric Richmond, the chairman

0:00:59.280 --> 0:01:03.800
<v Speaker 1>of the Congression Black Caucasians that support may well emboldened

0:01:03.800 --> 0:01:06.400
<v Speaker 1>Green and his pitiful band of progressives to keep up

0:01:06.400 --> 0:01:08.800
<v Speaker 1>this fight. But the vote did accomplish one thing. It

0:01:08.880 --> 0:01:11.679
<v Speaker 1>put Democrats on the record the inflamed, out of control

0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:15.720
<v Speaker 1>Trump having Democrat base will zero in on every single

0:01:15.760 --> 0:01:19.880
<v Speaker 1>Democrat who did not go along with the impeachment effort

0:01:19.959 --> 0:01:22.319
<v Speaker 1>and raise hell with him. And that is a gift

0:01:22.560 --> 0:01:26.680
<v Speaker 1>to Republicans that they otherwise wouldn't have had. So thanks Al,

0:01:26.840 --> 0:01:36.280
