From the December 22 broadcast of Premiere Radio Networks' The Rush Limbaugh Show:

Limbaugh responded to the caller by saying: “Look, philosophically I -- I admire what you're saying, and it'd be great to be able to someway deny them this money but at the same time people have to eat, they have to feed their kids.” He later added: “This is a tough call.”
