BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Dana in Columbus, Ohio, great to have you on the EIB Network.  Hello.

CALLER: (background noise) Thank you so very much.  I am calling because you mentioned earlier that no liberal would dare call and say that you're right or give any sort of credence to any conservative point of view.  I want to tell you that -- as a soon-to-be-40 African-American woman who has been told my entire life to vote down the Democratic Party line -- I appreciate your point of view, and I appreciate you staying firmly behind your beliefs. Because over the past four-plus years that our current administration has been in -- and, you know, even before that -- you saw the writing on the wall.

RUSH:  Now, wait.

CALLER:  I was still living in --

RUSH:  I want to qualify here for a second.  Did you vote for Obama in 2008?

CALLER:  I did.

RUSH:  Did you vote for Obama 2012?

CALLER:  I did not.

RUSH:  Okay.

CALLER:  Well --

RUSH:  So you saw the light somewhere in there?

CALLER:  The reason is that I abstained from voting for president before. I couldn't find the lesser of the two evils.  That's my (sigh) unfortunate dilemma.  I have a master's degree, and I put myself through school -- you know, with a ton of student loans. I own my own home, and I have three children, one that's a second year at OSU.

RUSH:  Okay, let me ask you a question: Why did you vote for Obama the first time?

CALLER:  Because I believed.  I was a believer.  I just knew that, "Hey, with my master's degree, the entire world is going to open up. There are going to be all sorts of marketing-communications jobs, tons of marketing opportunities where companies are going to grow exponentially, and want and need my education and expertise of the career I already had.

RUSH:  When did you realize that...?

CALLER:  I just knew that that was going to happen with his election.

RUSH:  When did you realize that Obama's policies were doing the exact opposite of what you thought was going to happen, or have you realized that?

CALLER:  I tell my children all the time, "Do your best, because you're gonna be the one that gets you to your next level."  I have been challenged with the whole tax issues of raising taxes, because God willing, I'm gonna be one of those people that will be negatively impacted by those tax hikes, you know?  I'm trying to get there, and I feel so much, as you've been saying, "Why knock down the people that are doing it for themselves?"  No.  No one's gonna tell me that I didn't get anywhere by myself.  I love my family dearly, but if I didn't have the motivation and initiative to succeed, I wouldn't have.

RUSH:  Okay, wait.

CALLER: (silence)

RUSH: Dana, can you hear me?

CALLER: (silence)

RUSH: Can you hear me?

CALLER:  Yes.

RUSH:  Okay.  When did you realize that all those things you believed about Obama weren't true?

Just another runaway slave needing to be dragged back to the DNC Plantation. :sarcasm:
