Time Text
Yeah, hang on here, managers, just a second.
I had to print something out here.
Forgot to do it when I got back at this.
It won't be long here.
Printers usually pretty fast.
There we go.
There we go.
All right, welcome back.
Great to have you, folks.
It's El Rushbo, serving humanity, executing assigned host duties flawlessly as a highly trained broadcast specialist.
Telephone number 800-282-2882.
I have a question here.
How many of the illegals actually want to become citizens versus how many of them just want to become legal?
Well, it's important to know, ladies and gentlemen, we'll delve into this as soon as we play the Star-Spangled Banner.
The Star-Spanglish banner, actually, we call it here.
This is by Jose and the illegals.
Not required that you stand.
The Star-Spanglish banner there, a cappella version by Jose and the illegals.
All right.
How many illegals want to become citizens?
How many of them just want to become legal?
It's important to know, and it's the question nobody asks about illegal immigration.
How many of them want to become citizens versus just want to become legal?
Senator Kennedy, you're the expert on immigration.
Perhaps you can tell us.
Senator McCain, you know more about the issue than effing anyone else.
Maybe you could tell us.
How many illegals want to become citizens and how many just want to become legal?
And by the way, round numbers.
We don't have to make this that specific.
I'll tell you why I ask this because it shows there are quite a few questions we should ask and quite a few answers we should have before we dive headlong into what they are calling immigration reform.
And by the way, I said dive headlong rather than rush headlong because I don't want my name to become an issue in this.
Folks, I know it's rush headlong.
When I put dive in this, keep me out of this.
How many illegals want to become legal?
We don't know the breakdown, so let's use the wisdom of Solomon.
Let's split the illegals in half.
Let's say half of them want to become citizens and half want to become only legal.
What does this new bipartisan bill propose?
Well, it proposes a new ID card, the Z visa.
It makes illegals legal overnight.
Something that very few people are talking about.
The $5,000 fine, that's only applicable if the illegals seek citizenship.
But if they don't seek citizenship, there's no $5,000 fine.
There's no heading back to the home country to get back in line.
So if this bill becomes law as written, yesterday illegal, today legal, shazam.
There's no so-called road to citizenship here.
No alleged 8 to 13 year wait.
There's no steep fine, whether it's $5,000 or $500 does not affect them.
There's no touchback, meaning heading to the back of the line.
There is no line because they're legal.
I know I've been making this point for the past week, but I wanted to illustrate it in this fashion.
What does citizenship mean?
Citizenship is irrelevant to this.
While the drive-by media focus on a distracting debate, is it amnesty or is it not amnesty?
Is it anti-immigration or is it xenophobia?
The reality is that all illegals become legal whether they opt for citizenship or not.
The question we have to ask now, does Senator Kennedy and Senator McCain know this?
Was Senator Kennedy wrong for the ninth time in 42 years on this issue?
Yet he is held up as the elite expert.
The lion who's making sure his final days are being put to the best use possible for the goodness of America.
And wrong on this nine times.
Was Senator McCain outfoxed like he was with campaign finance reform?
Now, if you are for this alleged reform, the least you can do to make your case is to say that these uneducated, unskilled illegals are one heck of a lot smarter than some of our best and brightest senators.
Maybe our guys should jump the border, pick up some street smarts on the other side, and then come back.
Who's outfoxing who here?
Path to citizenship.
You might be saying, well, Rush, what's this matter?
What's the big deal of path to citizenship?
Well, path to citizenship means that you want to become an American.
It means that you're interested in assimilating in the great American culture, becoming part of it and expanding it, passing it on to your own family, your kids, and so forth.
If you just want to become legal, then there's no assimilation.
There's no desire to quote unquote become Americans.
It's just to be here legal so you don't have the stigma of being illegal.
You know, this whole business of the rule of law, people are trying to poo-poo this illegal, the drive-bys and the elites politicians are all saying, we're not going to deport 12 million people.
We've got to fix this somehow.
Illegal.
I mean, that's a bad way to look at it.
No, it's not.
No, it's not.
When you grant $12, $20 million, whatever the number, a virtual exemption from American law in one regard, then you are just telling them that they're exempt from a number of other laws that they might break down the road, which Heather McDonald has documented to be taking place in Maywood, California.
It's 95% Latino.
They have, let me read this.
And George Will, and I'll just read this to you again because affirming the rule of law, George Will writes, is where to begin, because when a large and somewhat cohesive cohort succeeds in living in defiance of the law, the scoff law spirit can have myriad manifestations.
Writing in last summer's city journal, Heather McDonald of the Manhattan Institute gave a sobering example.
Protecting one form of lawbreaking may require protecting others as well.
The city of Maywood in Los Angeles County declared itself a sanctuary zone for illegal aliens this year.
Then it got rid of its drunk driving checkpoints because they were nabbing too many illegal aliens.
Next, this 96% Latino city, almost half of whose adult population lacks a ninth-grade education, disbanded its police traffic division entirely so that illegals wouldn't need to worry about having their cars towed for being unlicensed.
So if you're going to say they're illegal and you're going to make them legal, and you're doing this on the basis that these are God's people, these are salt of the earth people.
These people are the future of the American economy.
Well, if you've granted them legal status and they continue to break the law, I can't have that because at some point you may have to send them back.
I mean, they become felons.
So you've got to exempt them from all other laws.
In the meantime, other Americans are being held to these very laws that the Latinos are being exempt from here in Maywood, California, and a lot of other places.
Drunk driving checkpoints disbanded.
No police traffic division, so they don't have to worry about their cars being towed for being unlicensed.
Meanwhile, other people are being picked up and charged and put in jail for similar offenses.
And you think that's going to go down?
You think the American people are going to put up with that?
If you think the fireworks on this are hot and heavy now, and they are, wait until if this thing actually gets signed into law.
Then you're going to see what a powder keg erupting nationwide looks like.
Okay, Cindy Sheehan has resigned as the face of the anti-war movement in America.
In a piece entitled Good Riddance Attention Whore, Sheehan literally tore apart those who used to fawn over her so adoringly.
After a brief introduction, Cindy shared feelings about her role as an anti-war spokesperson that many on the right have been expressing for almost two years.
The first conclusion is this is Cindy Sheehan, Mother Sheehan, writing.
The first conclusion is, and I was the darling of the so-called left as long as I limited my protest to George Bush and a Republican Party.
Of course, I was slandered and libeled by the right as a tool of the Democrat Party.
This label was to marginalize me and my message.
How could a woman have an original thought or be working outside of our two-party system?
However, when I started to hold a Democrat Party to the same standards that I held the Republican Party, support for my cause started to erode and the left started labeling me with the same slurs that the right used.
I guess no one paid attention to me when I said that the issue of peace and people dying for no reason is not a matter of right or left, but right and wrong.
She then concluded, this is my resignation letter as the face of the American anti-war movement.
This poor woman, I felt sorry for her ever since this time, and I was mad at her, but she has no clue what a pawn she was.
And I don't remember those stories coming out after the left.
That's a good point.
I don't remember where she was ripping the left.
She's going down there and hugging it up with Hugo Chavez.
Probably love to have got in to see Castro if she could have.
This is not my checker's moment, she writes, because I will never give up trying to help people in the world who are harmed by the empire of the good old US of A, but I am finished working in or outside of this system.
This system forcefully resists being helped and eats up the people who try to help it.
I am getting out before it totally consumes me or any more people that I love and the rest of my resources.
So goodbye, America.
You are not the country that I love.
And I finally realized no matter how much I sacrifice, I can't make you be that country unless you want it.
It's up to you now.
Now, the media reported, but they didn't report what she said about Democrats.
They just said she's giving up the mother role.
They didn't, of course.
She was totally used by them.
She was, she gave them the face and the cover to write and broadcast their own views of Bush.
She was always upon, you know, she thinks this whole thing came up of its own weight and inevitability.
Her whole movement was the product of a PR campaign, some public relations office out in San Francisco or somewhere in Northern California.
It is really pathetic.
I thought she was a pitiable, pathetic figure from the get-go.
And now, by the way, folks, she had to put Camp Crawford up for sale down there in Texas across from Bush's ranch.
So far, no offers.
I mean, I know Texans and they love owning land, but I don't know how many of them actually want to own a ditch.
Here's Don in Rosemead, California.
John, thank you for waiting and welcome to the EIB network.
Yeah, Rush, I think that the Republicans, this immigration comprehensive immigration bill is a great opportunity for Republicans because there are a whole lot of normally liberal Democrats, you know, that I know who are really pissed off about this.
What did you say?
Ticked off about this?
Yeah, ticked off.
That's what I thought you said.
Sometimes I get.
I almost had a flip of a tongue there.
I'm sorry.
Sometimes I can restrain.
Some words sound alike in my cochlear impulse.
I thought you said ticked off.
Yeah.
This is a point of a brilliant monologue I did about an hour and a half ago.
The Republicans are looking at this through the prism of fear.
They're scared to death they're going to lose all these votes, and they're looking at it there for defeat.
They're consumed with the fact that they might lose.
They're playing not to lose here.
You never win when you play not to lose.
They are not looking at it as the opportunity that exists for big-time victory, to educate, to inform, to hold fast to the traditions and institutions that define the country, and to pick off some Democrats at the same time, such as you just pointed out.
And why they don't see it, and we do, and they think we're stupid.
They think we're uninformed, malinformed, ill-informed.
I'm trying to avoid sounding like a broken record here, but it's tough to do this when you've got to talk about it non-stop six days in a row.
I'm doing a yeoman's job, by the way, bringing new angles to this and not sound like a broken record.
It's tough to do.
Here's Bill, Sacramento, my adopted hometown.
Welcome, sir.
Hey, Rush.
Thanks for taking my call.
I wanted to address the Miss Universe contest last night where Rachel Smith was delivering her final answer and was booed in Mexico City and completely drowned out by the audience.
Why didn't you see this?
What was she saying?
What was her final answer to what?
I couldn't hear the answer because the boos were so loud.
So an American, Miss USA and the Miss Universe pageant, was booed, and the pageant was in Mexico.
Mexico City, right?
And she got booed.
Is this a woman?
I was completely drowned out by the audience booing.
I thought this would be headline news, and it's not.
See, this is the kind of thing.
Elected Republicans would be watching this and get scared.
Oh, my God, they hate us.
Oh, we've got to do something.
We've got to pass this bill.
Is this the woman that slipped and fell?
I'm sorry?
Yeah, maybe they were booing her for that.
No, I think they were booing her because she was Miss USA.
Right.
Yeah, you're right.
You're probably right.
They're trying to put a bright spot on this disturbing event.
She was the only contestant that was booed.
This is the thing.
Here's another thing.
We're going about this.
The Republicans are going about this in a whole wrong way.
They're trying to make Mexico love them.
The evidence that you cite last night, I didn't happen to see this.
I haven't watched the beauty pageant decades.
Didn't even know it was on.
But the idea that they hate us and we're trying to make them like us, that never works.
It never works.
You never remain who you are once you start down that path.
And that's what's happening here.
John in Westminster, Maryland.
Thank you, sir, for waiting.
You're next in an EIB network.
Hi, Rush.
How are you?
Hey, that article you referenced earlier by Dick Morris, he correctly pointed out that a lot of these people who are immigrating to the United States turn out to be conservatives.
And in my opinion, there's no reason to believe that the Mexicans that do end up staying here will advocate forth anyway other than you know why they say that because Some people looking at this think that it's entrepreneurial to take the step to come here in the first place.
And to get a good job and to support your family.
People think these are entrepreneurial characteristics and that if somebody exhibits those kinds of traits, that they're going to automatically end up being Republicans.
The history doesn't bear this out.
Well, I just think that the Republicans should just do exactly what you said, vote their heart on this and not worry about the votes.
I think that it'll take care of itself.
And I believe that a lot of these people who do become citizens in the end will be conservatives because that's the way they want to go.
There is a well, no, that didn't happen after Simpson Mazzoli.
There's going to be education necessary for this.
That's just not going to happen because we want it to.
But there's a way to at least try to make it happen.
And that is to take this bill from the Republican perspective now, take this bill and use it as an opportunity to talk about what has made America great, that their job is to continue to make America great or name the opportunities for the country to remain great.
Use this as an opportunity to educate wayward Democrats who are mad about this bill.
This is such an opportunity here to explain and define basic conservatism, which works.
And in the process, you can address the illegals at the same time.
And you can say, we have no objection to this country growing via immigration, legal immigration, this sort of thing.
We want people to come here and join our distinct American culture.
And these are the great things that will happen as a result of this.
The opportunities are just boundless.
They don't see them because they're looking at this through the eyes of defeat and fear.
And maybe part of it is they're just afraid to stand up for what they believe because they're going to get tarred and feathered and laughed at by the drive-by media.
That's a factor in all this, too.
That's right.
El Rushbo here, admittedly fighting fatigue, ladies and gentlemen, an exhausting Memorial Day weekend.
Nevertheless, here and not complaining.
All right.
Went to Breitbart.com.
By the way, it's B-R-E-I-T, not B-R-I-G-H-T, Bright, B-R-E-I-T, Breitbart.com.
I've got a TV section there, and I've watched Miss What's Herface slip and fall off the high heels, and that wasn't what it was.
She was answering questions, and the audience started booing.
And then I saw at the same website that Trump was talking about what happened in Miss USA down there.
And he said, it was the booze were not for her.
The booze were likely because of the policies of the United States.
So it wouldn't have mattered if Godzilla had shown up there wearing a USA banner that the audience would have booed.
Dan Arino could have shown up and they would have booed in the Ms. Universe pageant.
And he probably has a point.
That's not something to be proud of, by the way.
Other items in the news.
I got to get to some of these.
Some of these are funny as they can be.
I got to get them out there.
This is from the Associated Press.
New limbless lizard species found.
An Indian zoologist said Monday he's found a new species of limbless lizard, L-I-M-B-L-E-S-S.
For those of you in Rio Linda, the limbless lizard in a forested area in India's east.
We call those snakes here in the United States.
Speaking of lizards, Castleberry, Florida, police say they're sure that they shot a four-foot-long 80-pound monitor lizard that had been lurking in an Orlando suburb for months.
Neighbors aren't ready to let their children or pets back outside till they see a carcass.
The lizard didn't bite anybody, but the cops were authorized to kill it because of the potential danger it posed to small children and to animals.
You know, I saw this headline here, residents not sure two bullets enough to stop giant lizard.
And I thought maybe Rosie O'Donnell was visiting Janet Reno and just made a natural mistake.
But turns out it was an actual monitor lizard out there.
You heard about this guy in Kansas City burning books?
He's fed up with the techno age.
Tom Wayne has amassed thousands of books in a warehouse during the 10 years he's run his used bookstore, Prospero's Books.
Big collection.
But when he wanted to thin out the collection, he found he couldn't even give away books to libraries or thrift shops.
They said they were full.
So yesterday, well, Sunday, Tom Wayne began burning his books in protest of what he sees as society's diminishing support for the printed word.
He said, this is a funeral pyre for thought in America today.
The fire blazed for about 50 minutes before the Kansas City Fire Department put it out because Wayne didn't have a permit to burn the books.
This next time he's going to get a permit, said he envisions monthly bonfires until his 20,000 books have all been burned.
After slogging through the tens of thousands of books we've slogged through and to accumulate that many and have people turn you away when you take them somewhere, just kind of a knee-jerk reaction.
And it's a good excuse to have a little fun.
He says not reading a book is as good as burning it.
Hmm.
World is saturated in books that nobody reads.
You know that?
New York Times bestseller list.
Do you know how many people read those books?
Like zero?
Most of them buy these books, put them on the coffee table just to make it look like they've read them?
There are exceptions, of course.
By the way, Andy McCarthy, National Review online today, how's that diplomacy with the Mullahs working out?
Yesterday, at the urging of the State Department, the Iraq study group, and foreign policy specialists everywhere, the United States sat down face to face to engage Iran.
This is the first time in how many years since the hostage crisis.
And of course, this is the regime, Iran, whose motto, backed up by its actions, is death to America.
So today, after this meeting with the U.S., the Iranians announced that they've formally filed charges of endangering national security and espionage against the three American citizens they've imprisoned for weeks.
The three Americans, by the way, who have been idealistic champions of engagement with Iran.
So, you know, it's sort of like, what do these idiots call themselves?
They go over there to stop a war before it starts.
Human shields.
You get these three dingbats who go to Iran and say, these are good people.
We can talk to them.
We need to have dialogues.
The Iranians arrest them.
And after we have our first meeting with them in 35,000 years, they charge them with endangering national security.
Now, you would think that there's a pretty clear message here of just who the Iranians are and what they're all about.
But as Andy McCarthy writes, I thought Cobar Towers was a pretty clear message, too.
And the bombers, what do we know?
And Patrick Fitzfong wants three years for Scooter Libby because Libby hasn't shown remorse for screwing around with the American justice system.
Meanwhile, Byron York has a piece from last week in National Review Online making it pretty clear that Valerie Plame perjured herself in her little Senate House testimony over whether or not she sent her husband Joseph Wilson to Niger.
But, you know, when Democrats commit perjury, it's not that big a deal.
It really doesn't even get commented on that much.
New Jersey's starting an agency to battle obesity.
I kid you not.
That's what we need, folks.
We need another government agency.
New Jersey's health department's escalating the battle against obesity by starting a new Office of Nutrition and Fitness to better coordinate programs aimed at preventing obesity.
It's totally worthless, totally useless, totally absurd.
The private sector is dealing with this.
The agency is going to coordinate other programs.
That's right.
Prevent obesity.
Agency is particularly needed in New Jersey, possibly the first state to create such a government body.
Of course, the drive-bys, this is AP, this is wonderful.
This state really cares.
The garden state has the highest percentage of overweight and obese children under age five, 17 and 0.7%.
This, according to a 2000 survey by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, New Jersey also has many black and Latino youth who are more likely to be overweight than white kids.
Send them.
Never mind.
You don't coordinate anything.
Snirdly, stop it.
That's my point of telling you this is that this is worthless.
Nothing's going to happen.
Coordinate other programs.
It's just, it's absurd.
They're not going to accomplish a thing.
They're going to rely on the fact that people realize now that the state cares enough about their fatness, that there's a new fatness division in the health division.
And this alone is going to make them lose weight because they finally realize their government cares about them.
Don't you understand the point of this?
And of course, no bureaucracy and no agency ever fails in its mission.
So when the obesity rate continues to climb, it'll simply be there wasn't enough coordination.
We didn't have the funds.
So the department will grow and expand.
And eventually it'll have its own czar, the obesity czar for the state of New Jersey.
That's how this happens.
And this will lead to new tax increases.
That's the whole point of all this.
A New Zealand cow is producing its own skimmed milk.
Experts at a biotech company in New Zealand have discovered that some cows have a gene giving them a natural ability to produce skimmed milk.
The finding could be used to develop a dairy herd that produces low-fat milk.
This is in Chemistry and Industry magazine.
It's one of my favorite magazines.
It's how I know about this.
A cow with the skimmed milk gene was identified in 2001.
And the team have since been able to breed calves that also produce the low-fat variety.
They say it could have a significant impact on dairy industry.
The original cow that gave off the skim milk was named Marge, produces milk very low in saturated fats, and so should be high in healthier polyunsaturates and monounsaturated fats.
Marge, no, Marge is not in the top 10 all-time favorite female names of mine.
Marge.
Look, if Marge were in the top 10, I'd have mentioned that.
But Marge is not.
I'm just waiting for him to come up with the dairy cow, the pig, that can give us low-fat bacon.
If you can do it with cows and skim milk, they come up with Porky who is going to give low-fat bacon.
Corpus Christi, Texas, Tom, welcome to the EIB Network.
Hello.
Hey, Rush.
Hey.
Listen, I've decided, you know, I've always heard that if you vote somebody into office and you don't like what they do, you can vote them out.
And I've decided that I'm no longer going to vote because my vote doesn't count.
And if I vote for somebody, they do something wrong, like vote for this immigration bill and it passes.
You vote them out.
You can't change it.
It's already done.
The damage is already done.
So why vote?
Why bother?
Well, Because you can't give up.
But it's too late, Rush.
No, it's not.
If it's too late, I would quit.
I will tell you when it's too late.
If it's too late, then I'm no longer going to host the program.
And that's how you will know.
Now, you need to stay bucked up out there.
You need to stay inspired.
This is natural to think that you don't count.
You're just one guy and 230 million people or 300 million, whatever it is.
You don't count.
And that's not true.
You do so much more to influence the shape of your country besides your vote.
Your vote's important.
The only reason I would tell you not to vote is if you stop staying informed, and then your vote is worthless.
If you're voting and you don't know what you're voting on, then yeah, stop voting.
But your impact and your family and the people that you know and your community, far more than sometimes even the way you vote.
And you can't give up on this stuff.
It's the history of the country.
It's been going on.
These battles, these fights, you know, communists have been out there everywhere.
The liberals, leftists, socialists have been trying to take over the world forever.
Somebody has to stand up to them.
And we need people like you in the fight.
You can't throw in the towel here.
I'll tell you when it's time to do that.
Back in a second.
You're surprised I'm not going to a studio for it?
I got nothing to hide.
I'm not.
Look at, you know how I hate taking pictures.
I'm not going to spend any more time than I have to doing this.
I mean, it's a little one-shot little picture in a golf magazine.
It's going to take, I'll bet that it takes 45 minutes to get this done.
Well, no, no, that's not.
That's not, no, I'm not going to be carrying golf clubs.
Well, I don't know what the pose they want.
Probably some cockamaby pose.
No, it's portrait type shot.
All right.
Something I did not know.
By the way, this is this next story from hippyshopper.com.
One word, hippie shopper.
It's about Ben and Jerry's ice cream and their effort here to minimize deadly methane coming from the cows, which they end up getting their ice cream from.
Did you know that 99% of the methane released by cows is not from their backsides, but from their belches?
It is a mistake to say that the gas expelled by cows in the backside is the problem.
It's their burping.
Ben and Jerry's understands this now.
And they're bending over backwards to curb their dairy cows' emissions.
They're calling it the battle against the belch, claiming to be the first climate-neutral ice cream.
While carbon dioxide is thought to be the biggest contributor to climate change, methane apparently has 23 times the warming potential of CO2.
So Ben and Jerry's is investing a minimum of 2.4 million euros across a five-year period to become climate neutral.
Now, I don't know what this means.
They're going to try to eliminate cow belches.
My goodness.
I mean, the stupidity and the ignorance runs rampant.
But then I say, where would we be without these people?
Frank in Old Forge, Pennsylvania.
I'm glad you called.
You are on the EIB network.
Hello.
Negative Dittos, Rush.
Yes.
Thank you, sir.
You're welcome.
Your last caller.
We need to tell him he not only has to vote, but he has to get active.
The only way to let these current elected politicians like Konjorski and Specter and the people from Pennsylvania, Casey, is to see if that rally is saying, Look, you vote for this illegal amnesty bill.
You're out.
You're out of here.
Here's one other thing, Rush.
These Mexican or the Latinos immigrated across the border, they're not coming for $7 an hour jobs.
They're coming.
The Heritage Foundation just did a piece, put some numbers together.
For every dollar that they may pay in taxes, they get $4 in benefits, Rush.
Well, I know.
We talked about this last week.
This is our buddy Robert Rector at the Heritage Foundation.
One of the things that the supporters of the bill are saying is these people are going to become net taxpayers, contributors, that they're going to come and contribute all this newfound tax revenue because of the jobs they're going to have.
And Rector has established it's just the opposite.
They're going to be a net drain.
That's why I've been warning people.
The Democrats know this.
In truth, this is just about expanding the welfare state.
This is expanding the transfer payments, the redistribution of income.
They know full well.
$3.9 trillion.
$3.9 trillion is the number.
It goes from $468 billion a year to $3.9 trillion.
Who's going to handle that?
My kids?
Yes.
Who do you think is going to handle it?
Not while you and I are here, my friend.
Yeah, I know.
Here's the next thing.
Teachers' unions.
You know who's going to grow because of that?
Teachers' unions.
And you know what?
This rush, this is, it's time for these people to get motivated, active, and go.
June 3rd, we're having a rally in Hazelton, Pennsylvania, in support of Mayor Lou Barletta.
You've heard of Mayor Lou Barletta?
Well, of course, I'm host.
Good, good, good.
So that's, you know what?
That's how to get active.
So if people in Northeast PA can hear this, let's go.
Well, I appreciate your inspiration, sir, because it's not time for people to cash into chips on this yet.
It simply isn't.
And to think that it's over before we've even had the vote, that's fatalistic.
That doesn't happen on this program.
We don't allow it.
Thanks out there, Kyle.
Or Frank, sorry, this is Kyle in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
Hello, sir.
Hello, sir.
Look, I just wanted to say, if this legislation, the immigration legislation, goes through and is signed into law, they're estimating 12 to 20 million illegals or undocumented workers here now.
Yeah.
It seems to me like all this is going to do is create a mad dash to the border.
By the liberals' own words, the guys, these people are undocumented.
Well, that's a good point because the bill says you've got to be able to prove you were here prior to January 1st.
Right.
So they're undocumented by definition.
All they have to do is show up here.
How are they going to get?
But there's no enforcement mechanism.
And they say there is, but there isn't going to be one.
If somebody wants to say, oh, somebody crosses the border the day after the bill's signed.
I've been here since I've been living in the shadows.
And I've been here since December of 2006.
Somebody just know you haven't.
The idea here is not to kick anybody out.
That's a good point.
What does it do for the future wave of immigration?
Well, we're going to shore up that border out there.
We're going to build a couple feet of fence.
We're going to.
But it's not time to care.
The fact that it's bad ought to inspire you here to do what you can to oppose it and join the legions of those who are trying to stop it.
You know, this Ben and Jerry's business.
They have made how many millions from cows, who now it turns out, are polluting global warming far more than CO2, the methane.
And so now they're just trying to buy their indulgences.
You know, they're just trying to assuage their guilt by investing a little chunk of change into a project designed to get cows to stop belching.
That's all that is.
They're being riddled here, consumed with guilt when they found all this out.
All right, folks, it's the fastest three hours of media.
That means tomorrow is already the middle of the week.
It'll be Wednesday.
I can't wait.
We are down for the struggle here on the EIB network.
Don't cave.
