Time Text
Yeah, hang on here, man.
Just a second.
And it print something out here, forgot to do it when I get back it is.
It won't be long here.
Pritters usually pretty fast.
There we go.
Here we go.
All right, welcome back.
Great to have you, folks.
It's L. Rushbo, serving humanity, executing assigned host duties flawlessly as a highly trained broadcast specialist.
Telephone number 800 282-2882.
I have a 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.
Star Spanglish banner, actually we call it here.
This is by Jose and the uh and the illegals.
Not required that you stand.
The starspanglish banner there, uh cappella version by Jose and the illegals.
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 could 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, so we don't have to make this that specific.
I'll tell you why I asked 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, uh 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 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 is 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.
$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 eight to thirteen 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 vinyl days are being put to the best use possible for the goodness of America.
And wrong on this nine times.
Was Senator McCain out foxed like he was with campaign finance reform.
Now, if you are for this alleged reform, the least you could 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 guy should jump the border, pick up some street smarts on the other side, and then come back.
Who's out foxing who here?
Path to citizenship.
Why is what 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 and 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 a barrack.
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, ah, the drive-by's and the elites.
Politicians are all saying, eh, 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.
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 law breaking 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 these are these are God's people.
These are assault 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, you can't have that, because at some point you may have to send them back.
I mean, they become felons.
So you gotta 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 gonna go down, you think that's 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 Goodridn's Attention Whore, Sheehan literally tore apart those who used to fawn over her so adoringly.
After a brief introduction, Cindy's shared feelings about her role as an anti-war spokesperson that many on the right have been expressing it 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 labeled 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 a 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.
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 uh Hugo Chavez.
Uh probably loved to have got in to see Castro if she could have.
This is none 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 U.S. 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 good my 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 uh the uh 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.
She is the her whole movement was the product of a PR campaign, some public relations office out in San Francisco, or somewhere in um Northern California.
It is really pathetic.
She's uh I 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 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 uh Don in ho in Rosemead, California.
Don, thank you for waiting, and welcome to the EIB network.
Uh, yeah, Rush.
I think that uh the Republican this um immigration um 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.
Ticked off.
Um that's what I thought you said.
Sometimes I get it.
I almost had a flip of the tongue there.
I'm sorry.
Sometimes I can sound alike in my cochlear implement.
I thought you said ticked off.
Yeah.
This is a point of a brilliant monologue I did a little 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 their four 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 oh, why they don't see it, and we do.
And they think we're stupid.
They think we're uninformed, malinformed, ill-informed.
Uh uh, I'm trying to avoid sounding like a broken record here, but it's tough to do this when you got to talk about it nonstop 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.
Uh thanks for taking my call.
I wanted to address the uh Universe contest last night where Rachel Smith was delivering her final answer and was booed in Mexico City and completely drowned out by her the audience.
Well I didn't see this.
What was she saying?
What was her final answer to what?
Was this the nobody I couldn't hear the answer because she was the boos were so loud.
So uh an American, uh Miss uh Miss Miss USA and the Miss Universe pageant was booed in and the pageant was in Mexico.
Mexico City, right?
And she got booed.
Is this the is this a woman?
Yeah.
I thought this would be headline news, and it's not and see this the kind of thing we're all apology.
Elected Republicans will be watching this, get scared.
Oh my god, they hate us.
Oh, we've got to do something.
We've got we've got to pass this bill.
Is this 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.
Because they're trying to put a bright spot on this disturbing event.
She was the only contestant that was booed.
This is this is the thing.
Here's another thing.
We're going about this.
The Republicans are going to about this in a whole wrong way.
They're trying to make Mexico love them.
They're trying to ra the the evidence that you cite last night.
I didn't I haven't didn't happen to see this.
I haven't watched a beauty pageant decades.
Didn't even know it was on.
But the 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 that's what's happening here.
Uh John in Westminster, uh, Maryland.
Thank you, sir, for waiting.
You're next in a EIB night.
Uh network.
Hi, Russ, how are you?
Hey, uh, 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 can't have to be conservatives.
And in my opinion, there's no reason to believe that uh the Mexicans that do end up staying here will attitude for anything other than you know why they say that, because they 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 uh if somebody exhibits those kinds of traits that they're gonna 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 uh a lot of these people who who do become citizens i in the end will be conservatives because that's the way they want to go.
There is a well, no.
Uh that didn't happen after Simpson Mazzoli.
There's gonna be education necessary for this.
That's just not gonna happen by by but because we want it to.
But there's a way to to at least try to make it happen.
And that is to take this this bill that is 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 greater maintaining the opportunities for the country to remain great.
Use this as an opportunity to educate wayward Democrats who are mad about this bill.
It 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.
Uh and and these are the great things that will happen as a result of this.
But all the the opportunities are just boundless.
They don't see them because they're looking at this through the eyes of defeat and fear.
Uh and maybe part of it is they're just afraid to stand up for what they believe because they're gonna get tarred and feathered and laughed at by the drive-by media.
That's a factor in all this too.
That's right.
Uh L. Rushmore here, admittedly fighting fatigue, ladies and gentlemen, an exhausting Memorial Day weekend.
Nevertheless, here and not complaining.
All right.
Uh went to Breitbart.com.
It's by the way, it's B-R-E-I-T, not B-R-I-G-H-T.
Bright B-R-E-I-T-Bright Bart.com.
I've got a TV section there.
And I've I watched uh Miss What's her face uh 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 uh Trump uh was talking about what happened to Miss USA down there, and the uh he said it was it was uh it was the booze were not for her.
The boos were likely because of the policies of the United States.
So it wouldn't have mattered if uh you know Godzilla had shown up there wearing a USA banner that the audience would have booed.
Janet Reno could have shown up and they would have booed uh in the Miss 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 gotta get to some of these.
Some of these are funny as they can be.
I gotta get them out there.
This is from the Associated Press.
Uh 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 uh India's east.
Uh we call those snakes here in the United States.
Speaking of lizards, Castlebury, 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 uh animals.
Uh you know, I 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 uh 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 ten 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 uh burn the books.
His next time he's going to get a permit, said he envisions monthly bonfires until his 20,000 books uh 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.
It's just kind of a knee-jerk reaction, and it's a good excuse to uh have a little fun.
Um he says not reading a book is as good as burning it.
Hmm.
World is saturated in books that nobody reads.
You know that?
You know.
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 it you know, it's sort of like what these idiots call themselves uh uh they go over there to stop a war before it starts.
What's what human shields.
You get these three dingbats who go to Iran and say, There's a good people, we can talk to them.
We need to have dialogue.
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 pretty clear message, too.
And the bomb there's what do we know?
And and and Patrick uh Patrick Fitzfawn.
Uh 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 uh making it pretty clear that Valerie Plain perjured herself and her little Senate House testimony over whether or not she sent her husband Joseph Wilson to Niger.
But you know, when when when um when Democrats commit perjury, it's not that big a deal.
Really, it really doesn't even get commented on that much.
Uh New Jersey's uh 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's dealing with this.
What the agency is gonna 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-by's 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.
Seventeen and point seven percent.
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 uh than white kids.
Send them never never mind.
Um You don't you don't coordinate anything, snurdly?
Stop it.
There's my point of telling you this, isn't this worthless, nothing's gonna happen, coordinate other programs.
It's just it it's it's uh it's absurd.
This and they're not gonna accomplish a thing.
They're gonna they're gonna rely on the fact that people realize now that the state cares enough about their their fatness that there's a new fatness division in the health division, and this alone's gonna 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 no bureaucracy and no agency ever fails in its mission.
So when the obesity rate continues to climb, it'll simply be well, 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.
Uh a New Zealand cow is is 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 uh 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 uh have since been able to breed calves that also produce the low-fat variety.
Uh 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 mono unsaturated fats.
Marge no Marge is not in the top ten uh all-time favorite female names of mine.
Marge Marge.
If look it, if if Marge were in the top ten, I'd have mentioned that.
But Marge is not.
I'm just waiting for him to come up with the you know, the dairy cow, the pig that can give us low-fat bacon.
If you can do it with cows and skim milk, you know, they can come up with Porky, who is gonna give low fat bacon.
Corpus Christi, Texas, Tom, welcome to the EIB network.
Hello.
Hey, Rush.
Hey.
Listen, I uh I've decided you know, I've always heard that it if you vote somebody into office and you don't like what they do, you can vote them out.
And it I've decided that I'm no longer gonna vote because my vote doesn't count.
And you know, 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, um because you can't give up.
But it's too late, Rush.
No, it's not no, it's not.
No, it's not.
If it's too late, I would quit.
I will tell you when it's too late.
If if it's too late, then I'm no longer gonna 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 yet's not not true.
You do so much more to influence the shape of your country besides your vote.
Your vote's important.
Uh the only reason I would tell you not to vote, it's 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 your your uh impact and your family and the people that you uh you know and your community, uh far more than than uh sometimes even the way you vote.
And you can't give up on this stuff.
This is the history of the country.
This has 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 just 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 no I got nothing to hide.
I'm not looking, you know how I hate taking pictures.
I'm not gonna 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 gonna take I'll bet that takes 45 minutes to get this done.
Well, well, no, no, that's not that's not no, it's I'm not gonna be carrying golf clubs.
No, I don't know what the pose they want.
Probably some cocker maybe put.
No, it's portrait type shot.
All right.
Uh something I did not know.
By this way, this is this next story from Hippy Shopper.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 by cows in the backside is the is the problem.
It's their burping.
Ben and Jerry's understands this now.
And they're bending over backwards to curb their dairy cow's 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 twenty-three times the warming potential of CO2.
So Ben and Jerry's is investing a minimum of two point four million Euros across a five-year period to become climate neutral.
Now, I don't know what this means.
They're gonna try to eliminate cow belches.
I mean, these the stupidity and the ignorance runs rampant, but then I say, where would we be without these people?
Uh Frank and Old Forge, Pennsylvania.
I'm glad you called you are on the EIB network.
Hello.
Megatidos, Rush.
Yes, thank you, sir.
You're welcome.
Your last caller.
Uh we need to tell me he not only has to vote, but he has to get active.
The only way to let these uh current elected politicians like Kondorski and Spector and the people from Pennsylvania Casey is to see if that rally saying, look, you vote for this illegal uh 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 seven dollar 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 uh so in taxes, they get four dollars in benefits, Rush.
Well, I know.
This is this we talked about this last week.
This was this is our buddy Robert Rector at the Heritage Foundation.
And one of one of the things that the the supporters of the bill are saying is these people are gonna become net cat taxpayers, contributors, that they're gonna come and and contribute all this new found uh tax revenue because of the jobs they're gonna have.
And Rector has established it's just the opposite.
They're gonna be a net drain.
That's why I've been warning people.
This is the Democrats know this in truth.
This is this is just about expanding the welfare state.
This is expanding uh the transfer payments, the redistribution of income.
They know full well.
You're not going to be able to do 3.9 trillion.
3.9 trillion is the number.
It goes from 468 trillion a year to 3.9 trillion.
Who's going to handle it?
My kids?
Yes.
Well, who do you think who do you think's going to handle it?
Not while you and I are here, my friend.
Uh yeah, I know.
Well, here's the next 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 get motive motivated, active, and and go.
June 3rd, we're having a rally in Hazleton, Pennsylvania, in support of Mayor Lou Baletta.
You've heard of Mayor Lou Baletta?
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 in the chips on this yet.
Uh it's it simply isn't.
Uh and it to think that it's over before we've even had the vote.
That's that's that's uh that's fatalistic.
That doesn't happen on this program.
We don't we don't allow it.
Thanks out there, Kyle.
Uh or Frank, sorry, this is Kyle in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
Hello, sir.
Hello, sir.
Um look, I just wanted to say uh if this legislation, the immigration legislation goes through and is signed into law.
Let's uh they're estimating twelve to twenty million illegals or undocumented workers here and now.
Yeah.
Um seems to me like uh all this is gonna do is create a mad dash to the border.
By the liberals' own words, the guys uh these people are undocumented.
Well, that's a good point.
That's a good that's a good point because the bill says you gotta be able to prove you were here prior to January first.
Right.
So they're undocumented by definition.
How all they have to do is show up here.
But but there's no enforcement mechanism, and they say there is, but there isn't gonna be one.
How if somebody wants to say somebody crosses the border the day after the bill signed?
I've been here since uh I've been living in the shadows, and I've I've been here since December of 2006.
What's somebody just know you haven't?
The idea here is not to kick anybody out.
The idea is not that that that's a good point.
What does it do for the future wave of well, immigration?
Well, we're gonna shore up that border out there.
We're gonna build, you know, a couple feet of fence.
Uh we're gonna uh it's bad, folks.
It's bad.
But it's not 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 uh 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.
Uh that's uh that's all that is.
They're being riddled here, consumer 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.
