the results of elections prove to us that despite the fact that a guy like rush limbaugh is the most popular talk radio host on the rape and maybe the most popular media figure he still can't determine the outcome of the primary elections according to polls fewer and fewer americans care about climate change is that how republicans are getting away with these basically big oil and. cole talking points about climate change and is that a consequence of all the money and with these these front groups these think tanks that have been funded by oil billionaires and coal companies have been just pouring all this doubt into the media. well you know i think. the economy is the biggest thing that is influencing people's beliefs here i think that. again all of the solutions we hear about the climate change are things like cap and trade or a carbon tax that people think oh my god gas prices are high enough already i can hardly afford to fill up my change in order to get to work or to take their kids on our summer vacation and so people are naturally and satanistic to the idea that we need to us

because they're only are we seeing news in their ratings and i know we're also seeing people like rush limbaugh who is seeing his audience disappear too so i'm wondering if this is they're becoming a bit more of a right wing thing which is odd because you think that right now this would be their prime time moment you know to have high viewership because of course the incumbent as a democrat. in a sense that's true but it is same time if you take into consideration the time of year as well as the fact that we're basically right between two elections i think that it's a little bit expected for this to kind of be a lot of time and just mathematically if you have the most listeners in talk radio it's rush and sean hannity when there is something that makes people pay a little bit less attention it's summer time whatever they will be affected the most when we look at the numbers though it's incredible i was just looking at talkers magazine a couple of days ago the top talk audiences you have to go to number nine eight or nine before you get to someone who's not conservative or a political before you

. >> oh, but you started listening to rush limbaugh. >> uh-huh. i told me i've seen the internet and i've seen the future and i think there's something almost too eery about that. he's right. the internet does work the way that my brain works. >> you can watch this and other programs online at booktv.org. >> i thank all of you for coming. i'm actually glad to see all of you and i'll tell you why. writing is a very solitary endeavor. about the only time you get outside of staring at your computer screen is interviewing somebody in some dark and dusty place and books go out on their own like lost children and you don't get to see what readers think about your book, not often, and sometimes you only hear from the people who are upset so hopefully you're not upset. and i'm delighted you're here. the stand-up comics and actors, they get to get the immediate response from the audience about their performance and they don't have to write their own lines. when you're being hunted by american men from 18 to 25 years old it's almost inevitable that you're g

i just didn't understand the second question about rush limbaugh. >> host: talking about social norms. >> guest: an opinion leader. >> host: and who sets social norms. >> guest: one of the interesting things about social norms as compared to the law, there's no way to change them. you change the law by going to congress and saying, please change it, and maybe they will or won't. suppose there's a social norm that bothers you, like wearing a tie or gay marriage or the opposite, the social appropriateness in men places. how do you change that? you can't go to congress because congress is going did he ever -- defer to the norms rather than try to change. the but this is -- opinion leaders, celebrities, influential people, can sometimes get these norms to change, just by making persuasive arguments or just by being who they are. >> host: an e-mail. what are your thoughts on why so many judges -- and he says those appointed by democratic presidents -- have so little regard if any for the economic consequences of their decisions? >> guest: i don't whether that's true. i think judges -- i do

i think i could hear rush limbaugh right now playing that over and over and over again to his base, iiages, and i don't think he wants to give him that. >> then let me ask you this tough question. here you have the first african-american president who stands for the notion that we as a people can overcome discrimination, and yet you're saying that for political reasons he's unwilling to be honest about his true beliefs about what many people believe is the single greatest civil rights issue of the moment? >> yes. >> is that not deeply problematic? does that trouble you? >> yes. yes, it does, but it's politics. and the entire field of politics troubles me. >> wait a minute. in the 1940s, '50s, '60s, jim crow, after brown versus board of ed, we would have heaped a program on people who for political reasons did not speak honestly about the issues of desegregation. >> i agree. >> so does he deserve to be harshly criticized? shouldn't we be deeply critical of him? >> this is what we know of the president. he hasn't said those exact words but look at his resume. look at what he has done. i

just that, whether or not she wants to become a sort of full-time political celebrity in the rush limbaughlly wants to try to join the political fray and run for president. i think both prospects are very much realistic. moi point is we're not sure which bucket she's falling in yet. >> i mean, any one of us could forget, when pressed, the question of who did what during the revolutionary war. the point is it was a gotcha question. the basic question, what have you learned so far? she was the one who said she was on a tour to remind americans of our history, that it wasn't a political tour, it was a family vacation to remind us of what the founders did. you'd think at paul revere's house she would have brushed up on that history and now wikipedia had to close its editing function because palin supporters were trying to rewrite wikipedia to match her version of events. >> i think your point about her not conceding that she made a mistake sort of captures one of her other challenges which is she is loathed to ever admit she was in the wrong or made a mistake. i think that's partly a product o

, to tell you the truth, i'm a free market republican by trade, but i get off the boat with rush limbaugh and glenn beck and everything when they criticize the bailout. they're even criticizing the chevy volt now as a product of the obama administration. hello, i thought of that in 2006! i think what this is is an unfortunate tendency to use whatever is available as a lever against the obama administration. good, bad or indifferent. and the auto bailout was absolutely -- and it's worked. look at all three companies. they're profitable. >> my view, don't want to put words in your mouth, they don't understand that sometimes the government has to step in and do things that the private sector simply can't. >> absolutely. when the banks are out of money, the private sector is gone. >> we're out of time. bob lutz, thank you so much. a great book, read an excerpt from it on our web site. "car guys versus bean counters." thanks so much for that conversation. >>> coming up -- planned parenthood, guardian of women's health or subsidized abortion provider? we'll look at the embattled organization. ♪

and rush limbaugh said you're out of the party, pal. there go his courage. >> charlie: he suggested that he thought man contbuted to global warming. >> that's right, exactly. so wt is so disturbing is that, that we don't, we're not having an ult conversation about what are the real problems so my frustration withbama reallyflows from that, as david referred to is kind of passive leave from behind. i mean rorschach test. we all ran around the table barack obama, what comes to mind right now in the middle of this crises. i tell you it's a blank sheet of paper for me. no real strong sense of how he defines the problems, where he wants to go, what his bottom line is. so i really feel if you look at the last 15 years of american politics, if you are we had george w. bush at the reagan revolution to its logical extreme and beyond for tax cutting. then obama came in and took the fdr revolution to its logical extreme of beyond with healthcare. thank you very much, both of you have now completed the ageneral dawes of your icon i been -- iconic l

howard stern, rush limbaugh, the celtic -- self-help industry, the 80s, think about what the self-help industry is it focuses on the sell. what does this look like today in our politics? the deification of the individual? the politics started with a lot of thing that came out of ronald reagan's administration. one example, the idea of the unitary executive comes out of ronald reagan. anything is in the national interests. the nation looked with concern when no matter what the president does is legal, couple years later ronald reagan was saying this to great fanfare and in our presidential politics this metastasizes into stuff like this. you have george bush and nobody blinks an eye when he says god wants me to be president or he says i am the commander, somebody wants to explain to me why they say something but i don't know anyone an explanation for anything. also becomes barack obama. we have similar examples. this is a direct quote. i am a better speech writer than my speech writers and i know more than my policy directors and i am a better political director than my political direct

howard stern, rush limbaugh and as i mentioned before the self-help industry. that is tony robbins. 80's saw huge growth in the self-help industry and when we think about the self help industry as it is focus on the self. and what did this look like today in our politics? the deification of the individual? i think in our politics it started with a lot of the things that came out of ronald reagan's administration. one of the key things and one example, the idea of the unitary executive. that comes right out of ronald reagan. he said anything we do is in our national interest. that is a direct quote from our reagan. that happened just a couple of years after the nation looked with concern when richard nixon said whatever the president does is legal. just a couple of years later ronald reagan was famous to great fanfare and in our presidential politics this metastasizes into stuff like this. you get george bush now and nobody blanks and i or not enough people blink an eye when he says things like this. god wants me to be president or when he says i'm the commander. somebody needs to ex

probably like rush limbaugh been a bell cleansing treatment. we need to look at what makes sense and what doesn't. we are spending our nation into bankruptcy. we are hanging our children with debt in the future. unborn generations that already owe tens of thousands. that's really not fair. we owe it to our country and the future of our nation to be responsibly. there are certainly huge areas where waste, fraud and abuse can be eliminated. host: the executive director of the right on line conference. he's organized organizations. michael on the line for republicans. go ahead. caller: i wanted to thank eric primarily. it is amazing to listen to the comments and questions. the baseless count of accusations and bad history. this young man seems to know his business. hang in there. you are well spoken and well thought through attitude and understandings are a compliment and a blessing. whether you are a tea party, republican or democrat, we need people that can think and reason things out. thank you very much. host: next up, brooklyn new york, lenny

my family were reagan democrats, and now most listen to rush limbaugh actually. i understand these issues, but we don't have a government tell us what organizations or associations we should be in. we tell the government what to do. >> mr. speaker, i assume you agree. one of the criticisms -- you tell me whether it's fair or not -- is as you watch governors deal with this issue across the country, some say there's a tone about t. they steam to demonize public employees or union workers? >> that's a totally different question. the question asked was right to work. the congress should defund the national labor relations board which went into south carolina to punish boeing, which wants to put 8,000 american jobs in south carolina by fundamentally eliminating right-to-work at the national labor relations board. that's a real, immediate threat from the obama administration to eliminate right to work. i think it's fundamentally the wrong direction. i hope new hampshire does adopt right-to-work. i keep it at the state level, because each state sends a signal toll remai

. >> steve: what you just said echos what rush limbaugh said about the private sector.s destroying it. that is his mission. his mission is succeeding. >> steve: do you think that's the president's mission to destroy the private sector? >> the private sector is being destroyed whether anybody likes it or not. the fact is, rush is right. the job picture is horrible. the big problem we have in this country is we don't make very much anymore. we used to make everything and now everything is being made in other countries and we're consuming and we spend for health care and other things, but that's not a product that brings in revenue really to us. so we don't make things like we used to. we used to be a great industrial -- we had the industrial revolution. we have the opposite of the industrial revolution right now. >> gretchen: one of the things, donald, and you would know this because you have a lot of people on your payroll -- help me understand and we pose this question earlier on the show. when the economy seemed to be bouncing back in the last couple of metropolitan, t

what affect do you think people like rush limbaugh and so forth have on the social norms of the day?guest: it may be that as i mentioned earlier prosecutors have a lot of discretion and often when you prosecute the person and send him to jail it can be based on circumstantial evidence rather than the person making -- witness testifying as a person who does something wrong but sometimes circumstantial evidence is quite powerful and it is up to a jury to decide whether it is a sufficiently powerful. juries do a reasonably good job at that but i don't have any particular knowledge about its effectiveness. i didn't understand the second question. >> host: he was talking norms. [talking over each other] >> host: opinion leader who sets source of -- social norms. >> guest: let me say something. the interesting thing about social norms as compared to what is there's no formal way to change them. you change the law by going to congress and say please change it and maybe they will and maybe they won't. some social mores that bothers you like wearing a tie or gay marriage or the opposite, the

thanks to rush limbaugh all of these candidates are terrified of reaching out to mainstream voters. >. what is -- what's going to trip up rick perry potentially among independents? >> i think the fact that he's a check the box candidate for the conservatives, fills all the democratics and policy positions, his ability to convert to broad basted appeal does not appeal in texas. that is a real problem in the process today. everyone is focused on playing the right and ignore the center. >> one candidate that can beat barack obama and that's barack obama. he's doing great job for the republicans. >> you know that -- >> he's running so far under 50% of the vote. we can get that vote. >> it makes me feel better as a democrat when i hear a republican say we don't have the qualified candidate. we're hoping you will trip up. the bigger issue to me is that rick perry is a great candidate for political pundits and beltway chattering class. you get to real politics. who's going to succeed? iowa, new hampshire and south carolina. the republican who wins two out of three goes on to the nomination.
