And also standby on audio soundbite number nine.
Anyway, greetings, folks.
Nice to have you back.
Rush Limbaugh, the EIB network, the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
Remember, I am your host for life.
I am not retiring until every American agrees with me on global warming.
Well, I'm going to have to exempt some.
I mean, Gore is never going to agree with me, for example.
And Anna Laurie David is never going to agree in some of these other Hollywood types.
But I mean, you get the drift.
Statistically, everybody agrees with me.
Here's the phone number if you want to join us today, 800-282-2882.
And the email address is rush at EIBnet.com.
Bad news for the Democrats here.
The story is from the Associated Press.
The Baghdad security operation, i.e. the surge, has been underway less than three weeks, but it's already registered a success.
A sharp drop in the number of bullet-riddled bodies found in the streets, victims of sectarian death squads.
The number of bodies found so far this month in Baghdad, most of them shot, showing signs of torture, has dropped by nearly 50% to 494 as of Monday night, compared with 954 in January and over 1,200 in December.
This according to figures compiled by the Associated Press.
U.S. commanders have also said that Sunni and Shiite extremists were shifting from the capital to surrounding provinces such as Dayala.
All that may also lead to a, or may have led to a drop in the execution-style killings.
Bombings, other violence continue in the capital despite the crackdown.
On Tuesday, three U.S. soldiers killed by a roadside bomb in the southwestern outskirts of the city.
No problem there because we're going to go talk.
We're going to have a good neighbor meeting with the people that produce these bombs, and we're going to get this stopped.
Like a good neighbor, state farm is there.
Nevertheless, execution-style killings are clearly down.
According to officials, this shows a big reduction in terror and killing operations in Baghdad.
Now, I know what the Democrats are going to say.
Well, of course they're down.
The enemy's moved out.
Sauter's gone, taking a bunch of people with him.
They're laying low.
They're not going to hang around and be targets.
Might be some validity to that, too, by the way.
We did announce to the world what the strategery was going to be.
Tech Central Station.
Some Seattle schoolchildren are being told to be skeptical of private property rights.
You heard right.
Some Seattle schoolchildren are being told to be skeptical of private property rights.
This lesson is being taught by banning Legos.
The ban was initiated at the Hilltop Children's Center in Seattle.
According to an article in the winter 2006-07 issue of Rethinking Schools magazine, the teachers at the private school wanted their students to learn that private property ownership is evil.
According to the article, the students had been building an elaborate Lego town, but it was accidentally demolished.
The teachers decided its destruction was an opportunity to explore the inequities of private ownership.
According to the teachers, our intention was to promote a contrasting set of values, collectivity, collaboration, resource sharing, and full democratic participation.
The children were allegedly incorporating into Lego Town their assumptions about ownership and the social power it conveys.
These assumptions mirrored those of a class-based capitalist society, a society we teachers believe to be unjust and oppressive.
All of that in quotes.
They claimed as their role shaping the children's social and political understandings of ownership and economic equity from a perspective of social justice.
Social justice in this case is just a misnomer.
This is this, folks.
You know, a lot of people talk about First Amendment and how important the right of free speech is, and nobody denies this, but without the right to own property, everything else is academic.
If no individuals are allowed to own property, what freedom can there be?
Who would thus own all the property, if individuals are not?
There's no such thing as private property.
Why, you have no freedom.
That this is being taught in Seattle, not surprising to me.
A bunch of Marxists who probably have no clue that's what they are.
They might, granting them a little leeway here.
They just believe in fairness and social justice and equitable redistribution of resources.
Is it not fair that some should have more and some should have less?
It just reminds me of the true story of Thanksgiving.
They tried all this.
The Pilgrims tried this.
Bill Bradford, William Bradford, and Du Bois tried this collective stuff, and it didn't work.
Nobody worked for anything.
Everybody had an equal share in what the whole community produced.
Nobody worked very hard.
Bradford finally turned it over and said, everybody's going to get their own stake, and whatever they make of it is what they get.
And bamo, prosperity like they had never encountered before was the result.
We tell this story every year on the day before Thanksgiving.
Now, if this is happening in Seattle, who knows wherever else it's being taught?
But I'll guarantee you, Seattle is not the only place that school children are being told to be skeptical of private property rights.
In addition, private property owners probably pollute more than anybody else, other than they dreaded evil corporations.
National Democrats yesterday urged Republican Party Chairman Mel Martinez to stop the independent college Republicans from holding catch-in-illegal immigrant events around the country.
Howard Dean, where has he been?
Howard Dean and Ramona Martinez, chair of the Democrat National Committee's Hispanic caucus, sent a letter to Mel Martinez asking him to put a halt to the events.
These despicable tactics have no place in our public discourse or on our college campaign.
The game is a variation of hide and seek, one player posing it as illegal, everybody else trying to find the person.
The winner usually gets a prize.
Tracy Schmidt, spokeswoman for the RNC, said, We find these activities both egregious and offensive and condemn them wholeheartedly.
She, what?
She then noted that the college Republicans are independent of the RNC and said, we do not control their activities.
She said, what?
We find these activities egregious and offensive and condemn them wholeheartedly?
What is the purpose of a university?
Is it not for the exchange of ideas?
This is the exact kind of thing that ought to be going on on numerous college campaign for the express purpose of promoting discussion about this.
But typical of the left, they don't want to hear it.
So these people have to shut up.
The college Republicans have to shut up.
Classic, classic political correctness, which is nothing more than censorship.
Have you heard about what went on at the University of Missouri at Rolla?
Nearly two dozen people were being decontaminated yesterday after a white, powdery substance was found on a student who claimed to have a bomb and threatened terrorist-type actions.
The man described as an international graduate student, quote unquote, was depressed about his grades, according to police.
School officials said possible bomb materials were found when he was taken into custody.
23 people were sent through a decontamination process Tuesday morning outside the university's civil engineering building where a police standoff with the student had started around 2.30.
Acting Police Chief Mark Kurse said that when the cops arrived, a student was holding a knife and that he held up a bag and said, this is a bomb.
He also claimed to have anthrax.
Mayor William Jenks said the student, whose identity and nationality were not released, had problems and was depressed.
Hey, we have an international student, identity and nationality not released.
Claimed to have a bomb.
Threatened terrorist-type activities.
How remarkable, ladies and gentlemen.
How remarkable.
No one knows his name.
No one knows his homeland.
Now, we have to ask ourselves, is there a common link with the many other little single incidents of sudden jihad syndrome?
Because that's what this is.
Sudden jihad, from cab drivers to the flying moms doing a number of activities.
How about that nut that tried to run over the students at University of North Carolina last year?
This is sort of like not naming the driver of an SUV.
Is that what it's the SUV does all this?
International student, identity and nationality not released.
Ladies and gentlemen, it was only two hours ago on this very broadcast that I shared with you a story from the Washington Post.
The opening stages of campaign for the 2008 Democrat presidential nomination have produced a noticeable shift in sentiment among African-American voters who a little more than a month ago heavily supported Hillary, but now favor the candidacy of Barack Obama.
Her once-sizable margin over Obama was sliced in half during the past month, largely because of Obama's growing support from black votes or voters.
But CNN.
Obama getting a cool reception from black America.
Polls suggest that whites are more likely than blacks to say America's ready for a black president, which may be part of why much of the African-American community is cool to the presidential candidacy of Barack Obama.
These stories are both dated the same day.
What are we to do now?
Who are we to believe?
Who are we to believe?
Are we to believe CNN or the Washington Post?
No, ladies and gentlemen, the way to deal with this is follow the testicle lockbox.
This is how we will learn about.
By the way, Hillary's in the news.
The Clinton's in the news of his pardon business.
It's in a stack here.
I'll find it in a second.
But I want to get the people on the phones who've been patiently waiting.
Larry in Bakersfield, California.
Hello, sir.
Nice to have you with us.
Megan Ditto's Rush.
Thank you.
I was thinking about your point you made about Condi and her comments concerning the situation in Iran and Iraq and Syria.
I think instead of a lying in the sand, this is going to be a tripwire in the sand.
This is kind of giving Iran's leaders this is your last chance and giving Malachi the push and let him show the Democrats.
Just a second.
That's not how this you're assuming this.
And I understand why you're assuming it because you hope that this is what's going on here.
But the way.
The way Ms. Rice here, grab Soundbite 11.
I want you to listen to what she said, and then I'm going to back this up with other newspaper stories about this.
You got that ready?
Here's Condoleezza Rice testifying during the Senate Appropriations Committee hearing yesterday.
Now, listen specifically, Larry, for how she characterizes this good neighbors meeting.
We hope that all governments will seize this opportunity to improve their relations with Iraq and to work for peace and stability in the region.
I'm pleased that the government of Iraq is launching this new diplomatic initiative and that the tape.
Iraq is launching this initiative, and it's true.
Nouriel Maliki told us he's going to have diplomatic relations with Iran, whether we like it or not, whenever, whether we're there or when we leave.
But also, Rush, keep in mind, you keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.
If he's going to do it, why don't we be there so we can lay some lanes down?
And if you're going to kill our people, our troops, we're going to come after you, one way or the other.
But they already are.
I'm thinking.
And now we're not after Iran.
If we were after Iran, we'd be in Iran.
They already are killing our troops.
They already are.
Exactly.
Exactly.
Well, then, why do we need a tripwire?
Why do we need a tripwire?
Why do we need a tripwire?
Why do we need to have a meeting with them, a good neighbors' meeting, like a good neighbor?
I don't think it's as much of a good neighbor meeting as you think it is.
I think this is President Bush and Condolisa trying to put a front on just a little bit, putting Malachi out there showing that he is a leader and he can be a leader of the country.
So let him lead us into this meeting.
I understand that.
I understand that.
We've set Iraq up as a sovereign government so Malachi can do what he wants to do, and he's told us he's going to do this.
We did exact a price.
We got the unity agreement on the distribution of oil receipts for the whole country.
I understand that.
I just, you know what I don't understand is six weeks ago, this was off the tape.
We weren't going to do this.
We rejected this when the Iraq study group suggested it.
Well, six weeks ago, we didn't have a non-binding resolution against our troops either.
So now we've got that, we need to stay in the forefront of things, I think, with Iran.
Wait, we don't have a non-binding resolution.
Well, we did have in the House.
I'm sorry.
They didn't get it in the Senate.
Yeah.
But I just think this is there.
If you listen to the way Condi says it, not what she says, but how she says it, I just think there's a little something there to lay it on the line to them.
Okay.
All right.
Well, I've tried to be as clear and understandable on this as I can.
I've been through this.
We were told we needed to talk to the Soviets.
We were told we needed to talk to all of our enemies.
Joe, Bono did it.
Talk, talk, The only way we can solve our crises was.
And Jimmy Carter did it.
Carter talked to him till he had no voice.
And what happened?
Nothing.
He humiliated us and humiliated him.
You know, look, I know this is going to bother some of you people.
It sounds to me like here, almost a quasi-Carter doctrine has been implemented here in dealing with Iran.
These guys are only going to empower them and strengthen them.
The EU and the UN have been talking to them about getting rid of their nukes, and they've constantly defied us.
And they're saying, screw you.
We're going to enrich and we're going to do it.
And by the way, we're going to test fire missiles or we're going to launch rockets into space.
Screw you.
Talking to the, these are irrational people.
But look, I understand The thinking on the part of many of you who want to think that there's a grand strategery here that's designed to finally trip Iran up and to show everybody in the world.
And I don't, they've been telling us what their intentions are.
I don't know what trick we need to run to get them to reveal any more that they already have.
Oh, look at all I know is that if they are killing American soldiers, and they are, both with their Kuds forces and with weapons that they're manufacturing, then that, to me, you're at war with these people.
Now, either we are or we aren't.
I guess a lot of people are going to assume we're not at war with Iran.
I've always thought Iraq was actually a proxy for being at war with Iran.
This is not how you win wars.
Truman did not win war.
Truman demanded unconditional surrender, and he bombed them until he got it.
Now, that was then, this is, I understand that, but the principles and concepts of Sun Tzu, The Art of War, is an age, age, age-old book that is still relevant today when it comes to winning wars.
Let me move on.
I appreciate the call, Larry.
Muskegon, Michigan is next.
Dan, hello, sir.
Great you're with us.
Hey, Rush.
You know, this global warming garbage, I think it's a sinister plot to undermine our economy.
Because, you know, if we've got rolling blackouts everywhere, how can our economy grow?
I think that all this global warming is specifically designed to undermine our economic powerhouse and weaken us in the world.
No question.
Bring us down on the level of everybody else, even without the rolling blackouts.
That's exactly the whole point is that Americans need to roll back their standards of living or our standards of living.
That's the whole point.
They're very clear on this.
They're making no bones about it.
Nothing, I mean, you call it sinister.
Sinister is something that's sort of under the surface.
This wiped out in front of everybody's nose.
It's sinister in its intent, but it and it's conspiratorial, but it certainly is not something they're hiding.
By the way, common vitamin pills may significantly increase the risk of death.
Let me grab my Centrum here, another bottle of Centrum.
Let me take a couple of them.
I get so sick and tired of reading stupid stories like this.
Vitamin A, vitamin E, beta-carotene taken singly or with other supplements significantly increase mortality, i.e., death, for those of you who are real into, according to scientists from Copenhagen University Hospital in Denmark.
Okay, swallow one.
God done.
Swallow two.
Just took how many months off my lifestyle there, folks.
Back after this, stay with us.
Now, wait a minute.
Snurdley in the break here just telling me about a call that he could not convince to go on the air.
Is that right?
Okay, caller would not give Snerdley her name.
You don't know where she was from.
Okay, line by line, she said, What?
James Baker hates Israel.
Okay, Nick Burns, James Baker III, and Condi Rice are running the world with Bush 41.
And I'm a Muslim, and I'm a Muslim, and I'm a Muslim.
I hate the country.
I hate America.
Oh, that would have been a fabulous call.
But he wouldn't, he tells me that he couldn't get her to shut up.
She just kept launching and launching and wouldn't go on the air.
Well, maybe by publicizing her views here, she'll be comfortable to call back.
In the meantime, Suzanne of Hero Beach, Florida.
Hello, and welcome to the EIB Network.
Yes, Rush, I have a concern about Hillary Clinton's memory losses.
You know, she forgot to disclose the tax information that you talked about for five years.
She forgot about the law firm records being at her home for a few years.
You know, what if she's present and has one of these memory lapses?
It could be important for her.
Yeah, well, of course, as you well know, these are not memory losses.
These are lies.
I mean, these are not memory losses.
By the way, I want to explain one thing.
You mentioned the Clinton Foundation in your litany here.
And by the way, I'm not discounting what you say.
Those are valid questions, but I put it a different way.
He's out there trying to say now that George W. Bush tricked her into voting for the Iraq War.
Her husband tricked her for how many years?
Why, Hillary never knew about Monica.
Hillary never knew about Kathleen.
Hillary never knew about Juanita.
Hillary never knew about Jennifer.
My gosh, it's easy to pull the wool over this woman's eyes.
What if somebody like Mahmoud Ahmad Dinejad gets in the act?
Woman's easily fooled.
But there was a story out there that the Clintons did not report a number of donations to their family foundation.
She amended this.
She forgot was an oversight.
But one of the aspects of the story reported by some people was to say that there was a little chicanery going on because they took a $5 million tax deduction via the foundation when they only donated $1.25 million to charity.
Ladies and gentlemen, there's nothing illegal about that, and there's nothing wrong about that.
The way these charitable foundations work is this.
Let's say that you wanted to set up your own foundation.
And I'm just going to invent a number here just so this fellow.
Let's say that you have a million dollars that you want to donate.
Your foundation is going to make charitable grants.
So you put a million dollars in your foundation.
The year that you put the million bucks in your foundation, you get a million dollar charitable tax write-off.
You only have to donate 5% of it every year or 10%.
So it's perfectly legal under tax law that if they put $5 million in the charitable foundation one year, they get that as the deduction.
They don't have to donate all $5 million the whole year.
That's one of the reasons that financial planners advocate people do this.
Take the immediate tax deduction and then donate the money over time, as opposed to just making charitable contributions on the fly every year.
Put a bunch of it.
If you know you're going to donate a million dollars, just put it there and take the deduction.
And then if you only want to give away a couple hundred thousand dollars of it the first year, you can do that.
And of course, the more amounts you donate, the more you have to give away as a percentage basis, with the greater deduction that you get.
So there was nothing chicanerous about that.
What was chicanerous was that they forgot to report this.
It was an oversight.
Now, speaking of all of this, six years ago, and this is from the Boston Globe of all places, the launch of Hillary Clinton's career in the U.S. Senate was marred by allegations that her brothers had received payments from people pardoned by her husband in the waning months of his presidency.
Now, in the wake of the launch of her own presidential campaign, the pardon controversy has reemerged in an obscure court case in which Senator Clinton's brother Tony is battling an order to repay more than $100,000 he received from a couple pardoned by President Clinton.
Tony Rodham, who acknowledged approaching the president about a pardon for the couple, is the second of Hillary's brothers to receive money from people who were eventually pardoned by Bill Clinton.
Hugh Rodham received $400,000 from two people, one of whom was pardoned and one whose sentence was commuted.
But while Hillary Clinton immediately expressed chagrin over the news in 2001 that Hugh received the money and asked him to return it, she said Tony was not paid, according to a congressional report.
The Clinton campaign yesterday declined to comment on the case involving Tony Rodham.
Well, yesterday, U.S. bankruptcy court judge Marion Harrison of Nashville ordered Tony Rodham to respond by March 16th to the allegation he failed to repay a loan of $107,000 from the couple pardoned by Clinton.
This, according to lawyers in the case, Clinton's pardons have been a political issue for Hillary because of her ties to a number of the cases.
So Hillary's brother pocketed the grease money and never returned it.
Hillary said that he wasn't paid.
Another oversight.
I'm sure that she just forgot this.
Her mind is jello, yellow, yellow.
And as the story says, she was tied to a number of the cases.
Well, hell, yes, she was co-president.
Now, the Tony Rodham lawsuit revolves around his work for a carnival company, United Shows of America, which was owned by Edgar and Vonna Joe Gregory.
The couple had been convicted of bank fraud.
They hired Tony Rodham as a business consultant.
They paid him $244,769 in salary over two and a half years.
This is in a congressional report.
President Clinton pardoned these two in March of 2000.
The Republican-controlled House Government Reform Committee issued a 2002 report that said Rodham had helped the couple obtain the pardon.
Edgar Gregory has since assumed room temperature, and his company is now bankrupt.
The lawsuit against Tony Rodham, brought by the bankruptcy trustee, revolves around whether the Gregories loaned Rodham the $107,000 or whether the money was part of his salary.
The trustee for the bankrupt estate says that it was a loan that was never repaid and that with interest it would now be $153,000 large.
When Tony Rodham's involvement with the Gregories first became public in early 2001, Hillary said her brother had known the couple for some time, has a personal relationship with them, but he was not paid.
So, you know, these things just keep popping up, and of course, it's interesting this shows up in the Boston Globe, but they just never reverberate out there.
If this were a Republican, if this, you know, some brother or sister of George W. Bush or Bush 41, if any of this sort of thing had happened, Albany, Georgia, and Mike, you're next on the EIB network.
Hello, sir.
Good afternoon, Rush.
It's an honor.
Thank you.
Following up on your discussion about this nonsense about carbon footprints and the other methane gas byproducts, it seems to me that people like Al Gore and Hollywood, both on the West Coast and the East Coast, were really concerned about the environment.
They would actually do something about it.
There was a news story on TV here last night about our city and county governments.
They were in disagreement over who was going to pay the electric bill for the streetlights at an interchange.
Now, this may seem kind of weird, but it really started to hit home when you think about it.
It seems that the election...
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
I want to understand there's an argument between the city of Albany and the state of Georgia...
No, the county, the county that the city is in.
Okay, so it's over who's going to pay the electric bill on the electric lights that illuminate one particular intersection.
One intersection.
Yeah.
And the bill has been unpaid for 30 years.
I mean, three years, I'm sorry.
How many?
Three.
Three.
Well, it's different than 30.
That would make it even better if it was 30.
I'm sorry about that.
It's over $50,000.
Now, if you divide that out, it works out to about $1,300 a month.
That's just one intersection.
Now, the last time I looked.
That's what Al Gore pays every month for his 10,000 square foot house.
Well, this is just one intersection.
Yeah.
Now, the last time I looked, cars had headlights as standard equipment.
So did trucks.
Is this a stoplight intersection or stop sign?
It's not.
It's the streetlights.
But there's no stoplights.
No.
It's just stop signs.
No.
It's an overpass.
An overpass intersection.
Yeah.
Visualize that.
It's a bypass that goes around the town and a main highway coming into it.
Okay.
The bypass goes over it and the road goes under it and it's illuminated with all these streetlights.
Gotcha.
Now, cars and trucks have lights.
Why do we need streetlights?
Well, because of the rapists and murderers and purse snatchers that are lurking, especially to hide under underpasses.
Oh, yeah, right.
But, you know, that works out to more than $1,300 a month.
Now, compared to my home phone electric bill, and I'm sure yours too, that's kind of high.
You multiply that by all the intersections all over the U.S. and then add to that the miles and miles of interstate that have streetlights along it where there's no intersection at all.
And so your point is: if we're going to start demanding cutbacks, why not demand cutbacks to city and county and state governments?
And it's wasted electricity.
Well, of course, but of course the government never does with less.
I can tell you some of the funniest stories.
Let me just, very briefly.
Republicans here in my home state of Florida have proposed cutting property taxes by 19%.
I used to live there.
I'm a recovering Floridian.
Well, we wish you hadn't left.
You have a brain out there.
But the 19% cut for some people in property taxes to be offset by two things.
A 2.5 cents increase in the sales tax up to 8.5 cents and telling state and local governments, get rid of some of the fluff.
And the state and local governments are having a cow.
They are going.
But what about services for the poor?
What about services for the indigent?
What about services for the streetlights?
All of this stuff is, it's amazing.
The idea, folks, I'm going to tell you one thing.
The idea that any government entity, a state, a city, feds do not have enough money is something that is just absurd and ridiculous.
They are swimming in it.
You have no idea how much they've got.
You have no idea what they're spending it on.
How much of that spending is redundant.
$2.9 trillion alone in the federal budget.
You can't even comprehend it.
And they still say it's not enough.
And there are too many draconian cuts.
When you go to the state, what do you think the job of elected officials is?
It's to spend money.
They're arguing over a three-year unpaid bill over one lighted intersection in Albany, Georgia that comes to $50,000 over who should pay it.
They both have it.
They have it in droves.
They have it in spades.
They could split the bill.
It is just, this is, it's actually an excellent point.
Why don't we go get the real big spenders and consumers of energy, i.e., governments, to cut back?
If it means saving Earth.
Back in just a second.
All right, folks, a little pop quiz.
Do you have any idea what began 14 years ago today?
A little hint, it resulted in the deaths of 74 people, including 25 children.
What began 14 years ago today, resulting in the deaths of 74 people, including 25 children.
The standoff at Waco over the branch Davidians.
You know my source for this?
ABC News.
Do you know how stunned I am ABC remembers this?
Do you know how double stunned I am that not only ABC remembers it, but that they are reminding us, the drive-by media?
They ask, what lessons have been learned?
At least 74 people, including 25 children, perished when fire consumed the complex on April 19th, 1993, after weeks of fruitless talks between FBI negotiator and David Koresh.
Yep.
Once again, we failed to solve the crisis at Waco with talks.
So we just blew up and bombed and flamed the compound and killed everybody in it on the orders of Janet El Rino.
And they did this for the children because the children were supposedly being abused.
So Reno gassed them.
And ABC is reminding of this today.
Or us of this today.
Amazing.
I would not have known that today began the standoff.
Rebecca in Ontario, Canada.
I'm glad you waited.
Welcome to the program.
Hi.
Rush.
I'm a university student at a Christian University, and I've got a project on global warming, and I need sources because I don't believe global warming at all.
And somehow my professor does.
Your professor has sources?
No, he has sources that say global warming is happening.
Of course he does.
I'm going to give you some names.
Okay.
Google these names.
First name is Fred Singer.
Fred Singer.
Brilliant, brilliant scientist, has a book out that debunks all of it.
Rebecca.
Another name, Pat Michaels, another brilliant man, University of Virginia.
Okay.
William Gray, leading hurricane forecaster, University of Colorado, who claims global warming, if it exists, has nothing to do with hurricane intensity.
Okay.
Max Mayfield, retired head guru at the National Weather Service, in little trouble here because he had caught a big grouper out there and brought it into the boat.
Take pictures.
But nevertheless, Max Mayfield also is tempting to debunk the notion that global warming has anything to do with the intensity of hurricanes.
I spoke to a scientist today from the University of Alabama at Huntsville named Roy Spencer.
Google Roy Spencer and that will get you started.
I would also suggest that you go to Michael Crichton, C-R-E-I-G-H-T-O-N.
Go to Michael Crichton's website and read some of his speeches.
Okay.
And if, after all of that, you really have courage.
By the way, have you been to my website?
I have, but I can't get in because I don't have the Rush 24-7.
You don't have the what?
I don't have Rush 24-7.
Well, I'm going to give you the Rush 24th.
You're now a complimentary member.
We're going to make you a complimentary member for a year, so don't hang up after the call.
