Hi everybody, I'm Dennis Prager.
|
|
Welcome.
|
|
The United States soccer team, which is in Qatar, or gutter as some people say, I don't know why, it's a K, I think, in Arabic.
|
|
Which is not a K, that's why it's spelled with a Q, the country.
|
|
Q is K and K is K. You can take it from me, I studied Arabic.
|
|
I'm having a news broadcast in my earphones, gentlemen.
|
|
Unless it's from here.
|
|
It's from here, gentlemen.
|
|
I apologize.
|
|
It was from my own computer.
|
|
So do I merit the punishment room for that one?
|
|
A false charge?
|
|
I think this is the earliest we've ever had a punishment room.
|
|
In my broadcast history, somebody entered it within one minute of the opening of the show.
|
|
And that's someone with me.
|
|
USA make a statement.
|
|
In American English, we would say makes.
|
|
In British English, it's make.
|
|
When it's a collective, they use the plural verb in England.
|
|
Anyway, USA makes a statement that was from the Daily Mail.
|
|
At the World Cup in Qatar, by redesigning their crest with rainbow colors to show solidarity with the LGBTQ plus community.
|
|
The U.S. Olympic team, the U.S., excuse me, soccer team at the World Cup.
|
|
Is there any other team in the world that has done that?
|
|
That will be very interesting to see.
|
|
Will the French change their flag or their insignia for the team?
|
|
Will the Brits?
|
|
Will the Ghanaians?
|
|
I'll bet not.
|
|
My dear friends, this is what I'm talking about when I tell you we now are the net exporter of toxic ideas.
|
|
Equal rights for gay people is not a toxic idea.
|
|
But it's irrelevant.
|
|
The politicization of the team is what I'm talking about.
|
|
You know, there are people who feel as strongly about the immorality of abortion as people feel about the immorality of...
|
|
Inequality for gays and bisexuals and others in the LGBTQ acronym.
|
|
But they haven't changed the insignia of the U.S. soccer team in the World Cup to show a baby in a womb.
|
|
And I don't think it would be the appropriate thing to do.
|
|
A conservative leaves sports alone.
