RUSH LIMBAUGH: You really don't need to complicate things that are simple. And this one is pretty simple. And I think the illustration of it, here we have yet again -- it's playing out exactly as it has, in specific these past seven years. So here comes the death of a Supreme Court justice. It's crucial. It's crucial, the makeup of the Supreme Court. It's crucial. I mean, if there is ever a moment to contrast who we are with who they are. If there is ever a moment to stop what the left is attempting to do, it is right here and right now. And so the Republicans came out and they said all the right things and it took two days, two days max for a couple of Republicans to stand up -- whoa, whoa, whoa, wait a minute. I think maybe we can't be seen as obstructionists and so forth. It looks like the whole pattern is about to repeat itself.  And the outcome of that, you fill in the blanks. You add two and two to get four yourself, because I'm here to tell you what the outcome of that is going to be, and you don't want to hear it, a lot of you.
