Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 podcast.
Well, it gives a whole new meaning to the wild bluey yonder.
Ladies and gentlemen, this astronaut babe going nuts in a love triangle.
Lisa Nowak, now she's been charged with attempted first degree murder, in addition to kidnapping and all the other things.
Wowie Zowie.
Wouldn't you love to be the guy in this triangle?
No, I wouldn't.
Anyway, greetings, my friends, and welcome.
Here we are, the one and only EIB network, Rush Limbaugh, America's real anchor man, highly trained broadcast specialist, uh meeting and surpassing all audience expectations on a daily basis.
Telephone number if you'd like to join us 800-282-2882, the email address rush at EIBNet.com.
Couple of uh housekeeping things here, ladies and gentlemen.
Finally, I can announce to you today that the babe on board signs are available now at the EIB store at Rush Limbaugh.com.
Uh, this is something demanded by the audience, demanding by uh actually a bunch of women over the course of the last six months or so have suggested to me that um uh we do babe on board in addition to baby on board, rush baby on board.
So the uh uh those those signs can see it at Rushlinbaugh.com.
You can order them.
They're now available.
We expect them to pour out of the EIB store in droves.
Second thing is we are also working on the two Nobel Peace Prize nomination t-shirts.
Uh there will be two shirts, they're black, and on the front, in sort of a gold print with uh with black bordering, will be the Nobel coin, the peace coin with my face on it.
Uh and uh one slogan will be Rush for Peace.
Uh the other t-shirt will say give peace a chance above the coin and below the coin my name.
Uh, and uh we'll have something on the back of it too.
Those are not ready to go.
We're still waiting uh uh for manufacturers to tell us when they can have bulk orders ready to go, but the baby on board signs are ready to go at rushlimbaugh.com.
And I'm not sitting here being a huckster.
I mean, this stuff has been demanded by you people, and we are simply acceding to that demand.
We are giving you what you have asked for.
Uh and of course, a price that can contains a considerable profit for us.
We make no bones about the fact that we give away cheap stuff and charge a lot of money for it.
It's quality items with a built-in price point that makes it worthwhile for us.
Nobody makes you buy this stuff.
Uh, we're honest about this.
Now, number number two, I am this is the last program for me this week.
I'm leaving after the program today for Pebble Beach, California, the uh the annual ATT uh national uh uh celebrity program.
I'm not gonna be playing in the tournament this year.
Uh my pinch nerve in my shoulder has been acting up the past three weeks, and I just can't play.
Uh it's it's extremely bothersome.
Uh but I'm still gonna go out because it's uh of a fun event and there's a lot of uh social events that I, as a powerful influential member of the media, am invited to each and every year.
So I'm still gonna do that since I had it on the schedule.
Uh but I will not be playing.
Who we who we got guest hosting uh Wednesday, Thursday, and Hedgecock on uh Thursday or Wednesday and Thursday, and Mark Belling uh will be here on Friday.
You're gonna be screening, Snerdley.
You're not.
Well, what's the question?
What was your what we open line?
Yeah, we can do open line Friday rules today.
We're gonna open line Friday on Tuesday, sure.
Yeah, that will let's do that.
When we go to the phones today, the show is yours.
You can call about whatever you want.
Yes, yes, a good good idea.
Got a telephone number, by the way, 800-282-2882, and the email address is rush at EIB Net.com.
I told you yesterday this is gonna happen, and it happened.
I've been telling you for the longest time the Republicans can block anything in the Senate if they hang together.
Dingy Harry has fifty votes in the Senate right now because Tim Johnson is still in the hospital.
Uh no word on when he's going to get out.
Uh and of course, you've got Joe Lieberman, who's an independent Democrat.
He's voting with the Republicans now.
But the bottom line here is that Republicans yesterday, and here's the headline the New York Times, it's the exact opposite of what happened.
GOP Senators block debate on Iraq policy.
It's by Carl Hulse and Jeff Zalini.
Republicans on Monday blocked Senate debate in a bipartisan resolution opposing President Bush's troop buildup in Iraq, leaving in doubt whether the Senate would render a judgment on what lawmakers of both parties described as the paramount issue of the day.
The decision short circuited what had been building is the first major congressional challenge to President Bush over his handling of a wall since Democrats took control of Congress.
The deadlock came after Democrats refused a proposal by Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky that would have cleared the way for a floor fight on the Warner resolution in return for votes on two competing Republican alternatives that were more supportive of the President.
Now this is the thing.
Mitch McConnell said, and he got all the Republicans to hang tough on this.
He got all the Republicans in this call, 49 of them, to hang tough because the Warner uh and even Warner voted against his own resolution in this case.
What McConnell wanted was for Dingy Harry to allow debate on two other resolutions.
Uh one of them uh show of support, and another one which would not cut off funds and would not set benchmarks, this kind of thing.
And Dingy Harry is the one who wouldn't allow debate.
The New York Times has this totally wrong.
McConnell wanted debate on things.
LA Times has the same take on this, the exact same headline.
Republicans in Senate block debate on Iraq resolution.
McConnell said we are in effect being denied a fair process for this extremely important debate.
Here is McConnell last night on the Senate floor.
The Republican side of the aisle is ready for this debate.
We're anxious to have it.
But what we are unified upon is a process that guarantees fairness for the consideration of what is clearly and unambiguously the most significant issue in the country at this moment.
It is ordinary, not extraordinary, for matters of great controversy, and even at this day in this day and age, matters of only a little controversy to be subject to a 60 vote threshold.
See, the Democrats are accusing the Republicans of obstructionism, Senator Dyan Feinstein and others.
Why they're obstructing the Senate here.
Of course, the Democrats were not doing that with judicial nominations.
Uh filibustering judicial nominations, which had no precedent.
Now the normal procedures of the Senate are being attacked by the drive-by media and of course the Democrats as obstructionism, uh, when in fact it's the Democrats who will not permit debate on competing resolutions.
Dingy Harry trying to sound tough.
You can run, but you can't hide.
We are going to debate Iraq.
And they may have gotten all their folks over there to vote against motion to proceed, but they're not going to stop us from debating Iraq.
Well, of course not, because you can call the New York Times and debate the uh thing, or you can call your buds in the drive-by media and get what you want said in the drive-by media.
It's the Democrats who don't want competing resolutions debated, and they certainly don't want a resolution debated that indicates a show of support for the president's maneuver.
Uh and of course, you can run, but you can't hide.
That's really tough talk from Dingy Harry.
Nobody's running on the Republican side.
I'm I'm I'm frankly, you know, shocked that the Republicans held together on this, a testament to McConnell's leadership.
One more from Dingy Harry here.
But you just saw on the Senate floor is uh Republicans giving George Bush a green light to escalate the conflict in Iraq.
The minority can't rubber stamp the White House, so they've decided to stamp out debate instead.
They are not permitting debate on the most pressing issue facing America.
It's absolutely the opposite.
Dingy Harry, and he knows it, but he knows that the drive-by's will uh pick up his points on this and make it look as the New York Times and the Los Angeles Times have done.
Anyway, can you take this last statement here that he made?
What you just saw in the Senate floors, Republicans giving George Bush a green light to escalate the conflict in Iraq.
The Democrats are not talking about stopping the escalation.
They haven't gotten anywhere near getting serious about defunding this, and that's the only thing they can do.
Uh they're not commanders in chief, so they can't pass A resolution by whatever margin that binds the president to anything.
It's why they call it a non-binding resolution.
So all this excitement and all this muscle flexing that they went through over having won the Senate.
They realize now that they have less power in the Senate than when they were the minority.
They were the minority, they could stop anything, or came close.
Republicans had 55.
You need 60.
They have less power in the majority than they had when they were in the minority because it's the Republicans that they hang like this can stop anything the House Democrats or Senate Democrats come up with.
They can stop virtually everything.
This is an illustration.
We'll be right back, folks, here on the EIB network.
Don't banish.
Having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have.
I am Rush Limboy, your guiding light.
Times of trouble, confusion, murkiness, tumult, display dispair, uncertainties about global warming and whether we're all going to perish.
Also the most recent nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize.
Rushlin bought 800-282-2882.
All right.
So we got this uh this this astronaut babe.
Uh what's her name?
Lisa Nowak.
She's 43 years old.
She flew last July on a shuttle mission to the International Space Station.
Uh, space station, as she drove all the way from Houston to uh the Orlando International Airport, and she wore diapers.
She drove a 900,000 ward diapers, so she would have to stop at rest areas and use the restroom.
This this is this is an obsessed woman.
She's a part of a love triangle.
She's married, she's got three kids, and then there's this astronaut guy in the middle of this, and there's uh some other woman that Lisa Nowak thought was her rival.
And I just asked the beginning beginning of the show, would you like to be the guy in this threesome?
Uh I immediately got a chorus of no's.
Understandably so.
All right, here's what happened.
Nowak believed that the other woman, Colleen Shipman, was romantically involved with the Navy commander William Offline, a uh a pilot, and I hope I'm pronouncing that right.
I haven't I've not heard his name on TV, so I'm just I'm just going with it as it uh my education taught me to pronounce such things.
Could be O'Fleen, not sure how he does it.
Anyway, he was a pilot during the uh Space Shuttle Discoveries trip to the space station last December.
Uh Lisa Nowak told a fuzz that her relationship with the guy was more than a working ship uh relationship, but less than a romantic relationship.
NASA spokesman in Houston said that as of Monday, Nowak's status with the astronaut corps remained unchanged.
Now, when Lisa Nowak found out that uh Colleen Shipman was flying to Orlando from Houston, Nowak decided to confront her.
This is according to the arrest affidavit.
Nowak raced from Houston to Orlando wearing diapers so she wouldn't have to stop to urinate.
Now stop and think that Colleen Shipman's gonna fly there.
Lisa Nowak's gonna drive there.
She had to race and get there before the flight did.
So she had to leave long before the flight did.
Uh you know, astronauts do wear diapers during launch and re-entry, so she has experience with diapers.
You never know what's going to happen.
Uh she was dressed in a wig and a trench coat.
She boarded an airport bus that Colleen Shipman took to her car in an airport parking lot.
Colleen Shipman told the police that she noticed someone following her, hurried inside the car, locked the doors, and then Nowak rapped on the window, tried to open the car door, and asked for a ride.
She's wigged up here, so the her a fellow astronaut babe did not recognize her right off the bat.
Shipman refused, but rolled down the car window a few inches when Nowak started crying.
Uh Nowak then sprayed a chemical like pepper spray or mace into Shipman's car.
This is all according to the fuzz affidavit.
Shipman then, in the uh in the midst of having been maced or whatever, drove to the parking lot booth and the police were called.
During a check of the parking lot, an officer followed Nowak and watched her throw away a bag containing the wig and a BB gun.
They found a steel mallet, a four-inch folding knife, rubber tubing, six hundred dollars, and garbage bags inside a bag that Nowak was carrying when she was arrested.
Inside Nowak's vehicle, which was parked at a nearby motel, authorities uncovered a pepper spray package, an unused BB gun cartridge, latex gloves, and emails between shipman and the astronaut guy.
They also found a letter that indicated how much Mrs. Nowak loved the astronaut guy, an opened package for a buck knife, shipman's home address, and handwritten directions to the address.
Police said that NOAAC told him she only wanted to scare shipman into talking to her about her relationship with the astronaut guy and didn't want to harm her physically.
Now, Sergeant Barbara Jones, a spokesbabe for the Orlando Fuzz, said if you were if you were just going to talk to someone, I don't know what you would need a wig, a trench coat, an air cartridge, BB gun, and pepper spray for it.
Now she ends up finding herself on the other side of the law with some very serious charges.
If she's convicted of the attempted kidnapping, that alone could get a maximum of life in uh in prison.
She's got an attorney.
Attorney went up, testified for an additional charge of uh attempted first degree murder.
Has now been Wow, what would make somebody do this?
Have you ever been that nuts for somebody?
Man, I uh I mean there's a lot of stuff that happens out there in the human race.
And you look at it and say, Yeah, we could never do that.
But I could understand somebody who would this.
I don't know how many people obviously it's this kind of thing has happened before.
There's all kinds of uh, you know, oddballs and kooks, and they just lose it out there.
Um well, I know.
You know what I would do if if I don't, you know, I'm not a defense lawyer, and I don't want to become one, but but there's a number of things that we could do.
Uh we could advance his ideas for Lisa Nowak's defense, all the time spent in zero gravity and the effect on various neuron firings in the brain, uh, traveling in the atmosphere during global warming.
Uh uh the the unknown effects of of climate change on astronauts who are risking their lives in the first place in service to their country.
Who knows what could have caused this?
I wouldn't even, I wouldn't, I wouldn't even not call it an emotional breakdown.
If I were a defense lawyer, I'd say something happened to the brain chemistry here because this woman has never exhibited any behavior like this ever before.
That anybody knows of.
And uh uh it's it it's it's not indicated in any of her screenings, her testings, gone through all kinds of psychological testing at NASA.
This is a shock.
This is stunning.
It has to be job related.
And it has to be climate related.
You never know.
They might have come through the ozone hole on re-entry.
I mean, any number of things here, and who knows what happens to the human brain when you come through the ozone hole uh on re-entry, wearing diapers.
She might have had a discharge wearing the diapers have been forever humiliated, and the guy, the astronaut guy, knew this.
Who knows what's going on?
Any number of ways to play this as a defense lawyer.
Call Mike Nifong for advice.
Call Patrick Fitzfong and uh and ask both of them if they were prosecuting, how they would go about it, prepare your defense uh in in that way.
There's any number of uh opportunities.
Uh uh substance abuse, alcohol, go to rehab, Gavin Newsom's doing that.
Did you hear that?
Mayor of San Francisco, who valuable service was performed by Gavin Newsom by informing everybody that heterosexual sex does occur in San Francisco.
Uh when he had the affair with his best friend's wife.
But now he says, not drinking, but he did have an alcohol problem, wants to go to rehab.
Uh, and and somebody out there, I've got the story somewhere in the stack, some member of the San Francisco City government, he ought to resign.
He just ought to quit.
This is this is outrageous.
This is absurd.
No, it's not.
It's a resume enhancement.
Uh, in fact, some Democrats are saying, no, no, no, he's got a perfect roadmap here to follow, the JFK Bill Clinton roadmap.
Uh uh Clinton didn't go to rehab, JFK didn't go to rehab, Gavin Newsom is, but uh regardless, uh, it's he's 39 years old, and I still say it's a resume enhancement for his uh future presidential perspirations.
Did you people see this?
An initiative from the state of Washington.
A ballot initiative filed by proponents.
For those of you in real linear, that means people who are for it, same-sex marriage proponents would require heterosexual couples to have kids within three years or else have their marriages annulled.
Initiative 957 filed by the Washington Defensive Marriage Alliance.
The uh group was formed last summer after the state Supreme Court upheld Washington's ban on same-sex marriage.
Under the initiative, marriage would be limited to men and women who are able to have children.
Couples would be required to prove that they are fertile in order to get a marriage license.
And if they don't have children within three years, the marriage would be annulled.
Organizer Gregory Gaddow, in a printed statement, said, for many years, social conservatives have claimed that marriage exists solely for the purpose of procreation.
Well, the time has come for these conservatives to be closed and are dosed with their own medicine.
If same-sex couples should be barred from marriage because they can't have children together, it follows all couples who cannot or will not have children together should equally be barred from marriage.
This will take off.
The drive-by media love this.
So will leftist groups keep a sharp eye on this, and this is exciting.
Another potential defense, trying to help out here on the Rush Limbaugh program at Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
One of the possible defense for Lisa Noak would be that the re-entry on her last shuttle mission affected her lunar cycle.
You gotta throw everything up against the wall here and maybe, maybe something something will stick.
From London, an Islamic school in England has been accused of poisoning the minds of its pupils with textbooks that portray Jews as apes and Christians as pigs.
I don't see what's so hateful about that.
What's so hateful about that?
The charges against the King Fahad Academy in Acton were made by Colin Cook, 57, a former English teacher and Muslim convert.
Cook says a scroll where he taught for 19 years was very good until 2005 when the majority of British teachers left.
Cook says he was told this is not England, this is Saudi Arabia, when he complained to school management about the content of the curriculum and questioned whether it complied with the British law.
I mean to hear these bunch of the Islamo fascists portray Jews as apes and Christians as pigs, that's pretty mild.
Compared to uh other things they do.
So just words, freedom of speech, First Amendment, and all that, everybody knows that.
Uh black MIT professor.
Now you might have heard about this, but there's more to this.
There's more to this than meets the eye.
And that's why I, your host am here to read the stitches on the fastball.
I'm here to read between the lines.
A black MIT professor began a hunger strike Monday to protest the university's decision to deny him tenure.
He claims the denial was based on race.
His name is James Shirley.
He is a stem cell scientist.
Hang on.
And he tried for two years to persuade administrators at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to reverse the department head's rejection of his tenure bid.
I'm uh I'm not actually uh doing this to get tenured, Shirley said.
I'm doing this for the reason that I wasn't tenured, which is racism.
And I want this institution to admit that that is the problem and make plans to do something about it.
After a last meal, which was two bowls of Czech's cereal, uh Shirley stood uh outside the provost's office in protest, accompanied by 25 friends and supporters.
University administrators denied Shirley's allegations that his lack of tenure, denial of tenure is based on race, and said less than half of junior faculty members are promoted to tenured positions.
Now, surely uh uh James Shirley is 5'8 and 254 pounds.
So the hunger strike is well-timed.
Uh and will have uh well, I have a side benefit here that uh would be good thing for him.
Said he planned to ingest only water, vitamins, and electrolyte supplements until the university acknowledges its racism.
Well, he might get down to 80 pounds here.
Uh what's that?
Well, yeah, I think the thing, you know, we you know, we did learn this, didn't we?
Well, I forget the name of the case, but if you uh We have learned that starvation can lead to euphoria.
And a lot of people like euphoria.
They don't experience it very much.
And uh starvation can lead to so you never know.
He might end up being happier, might not even care about tenure.
Uh the time this goes on.
But here is the key to this.
Mr. Shirley, who is 49, works with adult stem cells.
He opposes research using human embryonic stem cells because he believes it amounts to taking human life.
Now, is this the real racism?
Is he being denied tenure not because of his race, but because he's on the politically incorrect side of an issue of science?
If you want to know, if you have any doubt that science has become as politicized as any other institution in America, you uh needn't look no further than this story.
Here's a guy once tenure.
He thinks he's not getting it because it's race, uh race-based.
He's simply on the wrong side of the stem cell issue.
This MIT They're not going to tenure a guy who doesn't fall in line on this embryonic stem cell business.
Uh in September, Mr. Shirley uh won a prestigious two and a half million dollar grant from the National Institutes of Health.
But it means nothing.
Now he's on a starvation diet.
Uh simply because he hasn't gotten tenure.
To the phones quickly.
Scott, in uh Chico, California, used to be the number one party town in America, if you can believe that.
Well, party school, Chico State.
Nice to have you with us, sir.
Thanks, Russ.
I contributed to that.
Uh things have changed here a little bit.
Hey, regarding uh astronaut uh babe.
Uh when I first heard that on the news this morning, uh, it was like uh you've been reading my mail.
Nothing more complicated to this than three words, and that is PMS.
Those are initials or letters.
Okay.
You lost some brain cells at Chaco State.
Well, you know, uh filled in the the acronym of PMS with other words, so you could just PMS.
I mean, because if if you chalk it up to PMS, every woman that endures PMS would behave like this.
This, by the way.
I have an ex that does behave like this.
Oh, come on, with all those all those tools in the trunk chasing you halfway across the country?
Uh-huh.
You'd think after the first couple hours she'd calm down.
Uh-uh.
Diapers in the car driving around with diapers on.
BB guns and this kind of stuff?
No, I mean, this is I understand the PMS is PMS.
Uh, we've all seen it.
We've all experienced it.
It is why I suggested the All-American First Cavalry Amazon Battalion.
Women such as Lisa Nowak on battle-ready conditions, send them out there.
Now, this this this is a c this is this Lisa Noah could be an ideal candidate for the All-American First Cavalry Amazon battalion.
Can you imagine the white knuckles that she had driving those 900 miles, just clenching the steering wheel?
Sure, that steering wheel's got you know fingerprints in it.
Anyway, this is uh I think that's very sexist of you to chalk this up to PMS, a typical male thing to do.
Um we're we're focusing here on ways to uh come up with a defense uh uh in in this case to help her out.
Uh obviously something not right there, and here you are, you're calling out PMS and saying that reminds you of your ex-wife.
A lot of guys shouting at the radio, yeah, me too.
So Stephen in Louisville, Kentucky, you're next, sir.
Great to have you with us.
Hey, Rush.
Uh just wanted to ask you about this uh astronaut thing, and uh maybe uh you have the mind of the feminist, or at least can explain what uh their reaction is going to be.
How would they answer uh uh this astronaut compared to maybe females in the military working side by side uh with men, uh perhaps like uh a female pilot carrying a nuclear uh bomb on a mission?
Uh uh would this be uh have anything uh uh in relation to that?
I'll tell you, I'm surprised at some of you people.
Oh, well, uh you're gonna be a big thing.
The woman wasn't she was she was not in the space shuttle.
She was not flying a jet with a nuclear bomb on it.
She was in a car racing across interstate highways in America.
But she could have been carrying a nipple here up.
Look at look at the everybody's laughing at this.
This you want to be in this woman's shoes?
Are you talking?
Do you want to know this one?
I'll tell you, you know, it is it is it is just this this story is just too easy, which is why uh everybody expects the PMS jokes and so forth.
That's why we are focusing on the defense.
And I really do.
I I really think they ought to look into the fact that during the last re-entry on a shuttle flight lunar cycle uh was was whacked out.
Uh something c combined with the unknown effects in the upper atmosphere of uh of global warming.
Uh I know that there's no indication you you know that can't be.
She couldn't have gotten in the astronaut program if there were any psychological indication in her past or testing that this was going to happen.
In other words, she could not have exhibited this kind of behavior in the past.
FBI checks all you know, you're trying to get the astronaut program.
It's it's uh tough thing to do.
Strenuous tests, both mentally, physically and psychologically.
Something, something out there just popped.
Chris in Fort Bragg, North Carolina welcomes her to the EIB network.
Airborne Ditto's rush.
Thank you.
I I want to pass on to you, I think that for the people who orchestrate and control elections, they've got us in a gigantic shell game.
I think Barack Obama always has been and always will be the VP on a Democratic ticket.
And the shell game aspect of this is in all this drama that's going on in this hard fought campaign that they're going to tell us about down the road.
All this money that's diverting to Obama's campaign is going to end up in the same coffers because they're going to be on the same ticket.
As Tillery, you're obviously talking about uh Hillary.
Absolutely.
Well, we've got an Obama Obama stack coming up, and it's interesting what's happening uh in the black community with certain black leaders uh and black columnists regarding Obama.
They are frustrated and want him to get out of the race.
They're just uh it's it's fascinating stuff.
A lot of people have the theory that you have that this is all just a giant game that the media's playing along with the Clintons and building Obama up, uh, so he'll be chosen as number two, combined campaign funds and resources and com and you'll get first woman, uh but really elected president, first black, elected vice president, so forth.
Uh you could be right.
Uh it's it's I find it interesting how many people do still consider the Democratic Party to be one of intricate secret conspiracies, and that they all play along with so as to cover it up uh and keep it uh unnoticeable to most members of the public.
I still I don't think, folks, that they are that organized or that smart, and I don't think they are that unified.
I I I just you know, it c it could be that that Hillary struck a deal with Obama always that that is that is possible, but uh the Democratic Party when it comes to vying for power in elections, they're not a monolith.
They do hang together better than Republicans do, but uh they are they're not the monolith and this this giant uh uh indestructible force that people think of them as being.
Otherwise, they'd be winning a lot more elections than they uh than they have been lately.
All right, I gotta go quick time out.
Much more straight ahead.
It's L. Rushball, the all-knowing, all-caring, all sensing, all feeling, maha rushy.
And Nobel Peace Prize nominee.
Once again, the baby on board signs are now ready at the EIB store for purchase and delivery.
Uh backed by popular demand.
Well, we have the rush baby on board signs, but uh women's you're gonna have rush babe on board signs, and so now we do.
Um how many of you saw the Snickers commercial at the Super Bowl?
Oh, you didn't see this commercial?
Oh.
Oh, ho.
Snickers aired an ad during the Super Bowl that featured two men eating a Snickers bar, both from the other end.
And as they devoured the bar, guess what made contact?
They're two lips.
And these two men in this commercial reacted in violent disgust after accidentally kissing each other while eating a candy bar.
The Snickers parent company, Mars, has now pulled the ads that it was hosting on its website, expressing regret, saying it'll never happen again because the gay activist has said it was anti-gay.
Uh when two men kissing react in violent disgust.
So Snickers has pulled the ad.
Yep.
That's obviously not going to run on TV either, but it was running on their uh website.
Uh was NFL players grimacing in similar disgust at the KISS.
People watching these two guys hit the snigger.
What just happened?
They freak out.
All right, ladies and gentlemen, uh it is it is a it has become obvious to me as host of this program that global warming is now going to be something akin to Gorbasms and condom updates and peace updates.
It's something where there's going to be noteworthy news each and every day.
And so when that status gets anointed or appointed to a news story, what we need is a musical update theme.
And this was just what first popped into my head off the top of my head.
Our global warming update theme.
Okay, that's in the crazy world of Arthur Brown.
And again, just the first thing that came to mind, but we're gonna need one because I've got a global warming stack here, and you people watching on the uh on the Ditto Cam can see it.
Here's just the top story in the stack.
Ice packs and polar bears are thwarting fishing in Iceland.
Polar bears drifting from Greenland to Iceland on ice on ice flows.
Stranded polar bears on ice floes are just attacking fishermen and merchants.
Uh and and it's uh it's becoming a uh a big problem.
It's with the uh causing a worrying decline in fish supplies from Iceland since the beginning of the year, but the underlying cause is something they would never have guessed.
A massive deep freeze around the west coast of the country.
Back in just a second.
You like that one, better heat wave by Martha the Vandelas?
Yeah, she's actually working in Detroit.
She's a city council there or something.
Martha Reeves is, remember that.
All right, so we can honor her at the same time.
Uh her song is our global warming update theme.
Well, we're still working on it here.
In the meantime, sit tight.
