Got the “transcript” for Rush’s comments on the fossil Ida:

RUSH: Drudge had as a lead item up there this morning on his page a story from the UK, Sky News: “Scientists Unveil Missing Link In Evolution.” It’s all about how Darwin would be thrilled to be alive today. “Scientists have unveiled a 47-million-year-old fossilised skeleton of a monkey hailed as the missing link in human evolution.” It’s a one-foot, nine-inch-tall monkey, and it’s a lemur monkey described as the eighth wonder of the world. “The search for a direct connection between humans and the rest of the animal kingdom has taken 200 years - but it was presented to the world today —” So I guess this is settled science. We now officially came from a monkey, 47 million years ago. Well, that’s how it’s being presented here. It’s settled science. You know, this is all BS, as far as I’m concerned. Cross species evolution, I don’t think anybody’s ever proven that. They’re going out of their way now to establish evolution as a mechanism for creation, which, of course, you can’t do, but I’m more interested in some other missing link. And that is the missing link between our failing economy and prosperity.

How many thousands or millions of years will it be before somebody makes the connection to our failing economy and prosperity, Barack Obama? If we’re looking for missing links, let’s look for him, because right now he’s getting no blame, no coverage whatsoever, as being instrumental in the drop in American prosperity, as the decline in all elements of the American economy. It is his economy. Nobody wants to connect it to him yet. It’s not just Obama. It’s Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid as well. It’s one of these things; economy is going to go to hell in a handbasket further, and we wonder how long it will take for the missing link to that to be discovered outside of this program, the missing link there being Barack Obama.
