Time Text
Welcome back, folks.
Still lots to do here on the Excellence and Broadcasting Network, Rush Limbaugh, and the EIB network, the Limbo Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
Telephone number if you want to be on the program 800 282882.
And the email address is rush at EIBNet.com.
Looking forward to talking to you as the program unfolds in our final hour today.
Middle of the week already, fastest week in media.
Oh, programming note, I will be out on Friday, ladies and gentlemen.
Roger Hedgecock from San Diego be guest hosting the program on Friday, be back on uh on Monday.
Uh the New York Times has done it again.
On Sunday they buried the JFK terror plot story on page 30, 30, depending on the paper.
It was you know, either the international edition, the the well, the outside New York edition, page 30 in my paper, page 37 of the New York edition, they buried it, and they've done it again.
Uh headline news study finds gains since no child left behind.
Student achievement is increased, test score gaps between white students and black and Hispanic students have narrowed in many states since Presidents uh since President Bush signed the No Child Left Behind Law in 2002, according to a new survey of state scores in reading and math.
But the study, released by the Center on Education Policy, uh cautioned it's difficult, if not impossible to determine the extent to which these trends and test results have occurred because of No Child Left Behind, but the news is great, but the news here is great but they get butts throughout the story, but the interesting thing here is where was this story in the New York Times?
Story was on page C 15, right before the sports pages in the New York Times, and we all know that none of those wimp sissies who read the New York Times give a damn about sports because there's too macho.
So we know that they're never gonna see this.
Barack Obama.
Barack Obama, let me give you this this quote from a from a story that mentioned this uh yesterday.
Uh talked about the quiet riot.
Obama noted that during the riots, this is this is the LA riots, the uh uh 15 years ago South Central riots, and he talked about it's a quiet riot brewing in America today because Bush doesn't care, because Bush isn't doing enough.
This guy is inciting, he was inciting riots.
He spoke to an audience of well, I think I remember it yesterday, 8,000 people.
And to talk about a quiet riot that is brewing out there is dangerous.
It is reckless.
But I want you to listen to this quote from the story.
When you read further into it, uh Obama noted that during the riots, a bullet pierced the abdomen of a pregnant woman and lodged in the elbow of her fetus.
The baby was delivered by Caesarean section, the bullet was removed, and the child has only a small scar on her arm to show for it.
He used this incident as a metaphor.
Obama said society's problems are worsening because, quote, in too many places across the country we have not even bothered to take the bullet out.
When we have more black men in prison than in college, then it's time to take the bullet out.
Black men in prison, the bullet in the elbow of the fetus of America.
That's his metaphor.
And what does this metaphor mean exactly given that Obama's party is the party of a fetus isn't a life anyway?
Can you imagine here is a party that does not believe that a fetus is a human life.
And Obama is saying there's a quiet riot out there, and he cites this example of a fetus getting shot because her mother got shot, a bullet lodges in the elbow, the pulley bullet out, the fetus survives.
Does he realize what a contradiction this is?
This is this is such a tortured analogy, and it is audacious.
And somebody needs to call.
Can you can you imagine if a Republican candidate talked about something equivalent to this?
There's a quiet riot proving out.
They'd be all over the place.
Headlines and so forth about how this is irresponsible trying to incite violence in America.
And what do you think Obama was doing?
And this is all to establish street cred, folks, as being down for the struggle.
He has to show that he is down for the civil rights struggle because, you know, they have all these pieces that the libs have written.
Is he black enough?
Is he not black enough?
He's the magic Negro, said the LA Times, all of this.
Yesterday we had an extensive discussion on this program about that Democrat forum on CNN Sunday night where they uh they made their uh their appeal to those of you who are Christian uh voters in America.
And I appropriately said, What's this?
They normally hate you people.
They resent the hell out of you.
Now all of a sudden they're out there courting you.
What's this?
We have no room for religion and politics.
Separation of church estate.
Here come the libs trying to court you, and this has been picked up on twice today.
Ruth Marcus in the Washington Post, the Democrats leap of faith.
You know it's a different kind of candidate forum when Hillary Clinton allows that she sometimes prays.
When Barack Obama muses on the nature of good versus evil, when John Edwards recounts that he strayed away from the Lord in adulthood, only to find that my faith came roaring back after the death of his 16-year-old son.
This is not Michael Dukakis's Democrat Party.
Instead, it was shown by Monday night's forum, I guess it was Monday night on faith, sponsored by CNN and a liberal group Sojourners, that it's a party on a mission.
The mission is to make inroads into Republicans' ability to attract and more importantly turn out religious voters.
Mara Vanderslice, Democrat consultant who headed Kerry's 2000 efforts to connect with religious voters, said the biggest thing is that it happened, meaning the event on CNN Monday night.
Think how far we've come from just a couple of years ago when Republicans claimed religion and religious Americans.
So Ruth Marcus says, Well, why are the Democrats sweating the God gap?
Well, because of this.
Voters who attend worship at least once a week account for 40% of the electorate, according to exit polls, and they tilt heavily toward the GOP.
Forty percent of the electorate.
You know, what's amazing about this to me is the Republicans, the blue blood country club Republicans are embarrassed of these people.
You remember me telling you the story as I mean the Northeastern dinner parties.
These country club blue blood Republicans came up to me.
This is in early 90s.
What are you gonna do about those Christian voters?
What are you going to do about them?
What do you do?
What am I going to do about them?
They're destroying the party.
Oh, this abortion garbage.
We got to get the abortion out of the party.
It's killing us going to destroy the Republican party.
That's all the reason the Republican Party was winning all those elections.
What was happening was these Northeastern guys are getting henpecked by their wives, and they just didn't want to put up with it.
Plus, they were a little embarrassed themselves to be in the same party as the moral majority and these kinds of things.
So while the country club blue blood moderate Republicans have been trying to drive these people out of the party, Democrats are out there now making a big play for them.
And Ruth Marcus says here for the 2008 campaign the Democrats have the advantage, you might say they are blessed with three front-running candidates for whom religion isn't a matter of conversion on the road to Des Moines.
Well, I think that's a little debatable.
I think these are Johnny Cumbly.
These people don't have a consistent track record of reaching out to religious voters.
None of them do.
Hillary doesn't.
Edwards doesn't.
Who else is in that mix up?
I mean Hillary, help me out here.
I'm having a middle block.
These people are always Hillary Obama.
I mean, what well, we don't know about Obama.
He's only been around a national scene for two years.
Well, these guys, they're not known for running around talking about God and participating in prayer breakfasts and that kind of thing.
And then in the uh Christian Science Monitor today, Linda Feldman writes, can the religious left sway the O8 race?
Democrat presidential candidates speaking openly about faith, competing for values voters.
And she refers to this thing on CNN Monday night as uh An intimate discussion of faith.
There was nothing intimate about it.
That was the whole point.
That was what was observable.
And when Mrs. Clinton said, Yeah, I I uh I pray and I have faith, nobody didn't say in what?
Or in who.
Finally, before we go to the break, ladies and gentlemen, sharks in one Florida river are getting a dose of human medicine, and scientists want to know if it's a prescription for trouble.
Scientists recently found traces in sharks of prescription antidepressants, cholesterol lowering drugs, and synthetic estrogens in the blood of young bull sharks in the Calusahatchie River on Florida's southwest Gulf Coast.
This summer they'll study the issue more widely on Friday.
Scientists with Moat Marine Lab fished for bull sharks as part of research to find out what drugs the sharks encounter most and whether the doses are large enough to alter how they behave and reproduce.
Sharks come into contact with treated wastewater, which includes traces of medications previously identified as Lipitor, Prozac, Zoloft, and Selexa.
Calusa hatchy receives treated wastewater from several sewer plants and passed by well.
Isn't this interesting?
Prescription drugs in sharks, bull sharks, by the way.
Be interesting to note how it does affect their behavior and whether or not they'll be as aggressive, whether it'll be calmed down.
Finally, Honda is discontinuing its accord hybrid sedan, with gas prices reaching record highs and increasing public interest in environmentally friendly technologies, you'd think, this is the AP.
You'd think that any car labeled as a hybrid would sell easily.
No, we wouldn't.
It's you people in the drive-by media who think all this stuff amongst yourselves.
But Honda Motor Company on Tuesday announced it'll discontinue the hybrid version of its accord sedan, citing disappointing sales.
Analysts said that despite the Accord's superior performance compared with some of its higher volume competitors, it just doesn't fit with the current consumer demands for the smallest, cheapest hybrids with eye-popping fuel economies.
Nothing against Honda, obviously, but I cannot say that I'm disappointed in this, because this always when I see things like this, it gets it rewards my faith in the overall informed intelligence of the American people.
And not buying into this ridiculous hype.
Back in just a second.
You know, during the break at the top of the hour here, folks, uh Rachel, who is uh sitting in today for dawn transcribing calls in case I have trouble understanding with a bad phone line or cell connection.
During the break, she said that she's uh just found out you're related to Andrew Jackson.
Uh what what's the what's the uh deal?
Your great aunt or your your great aunt was who?
Was his wife, your great aunt.
Three three, okay, great great great aunt was Andrew Jackson's wife.
Now this scares me.
Because the last woman who told me she was related to somebody like this was uh somebody said she was related to John Adams, and she asked me for ten million dollars.
I am not kidding.
So you know, intelligence guided by experience.
All right, ladies and gentlemen, here is uh the prayer that FDR gave sixty-three years ago.
On the radio.
This is the anniversary, 63rd anniversary of the D-Day invasion.
And this is a prayer that could not be delivered by a president today without a whole bunch of activist groups raising all kinds of hell.
Talking about separation of church and state.
Uh you know the drill.
This is FDR.
Sixty-three years ago.
Last night, when I spoke with you about the fall of Rome, I knew at that moment that troops of the United States and our allies were crossing the English Channel in another and greater operation.
It has come to pass with success thus far.
And so in this poignant hour, I ask you to join me in prayer.
Almighty God, Our sons, pride of our nation, this day have set upon a mighty endeavor, a struggle to preserve our republic, our religion, and our civilization, and to set free a suffering humanity.
Lead them straight and true.
Give strength to their arms, stoutness to their hearts, steadfastness in their faith.
They will need thy blessings.
Their road will be long and hard, for the enemy is strong.
He may or hurl back our forces.
Success may not come with rushing speed, but we shall return again and again, and we know that by thy grace and by the righteousness of our cause, our sons will triumph.
They will be sore tried by night and by day without rest until the victory is won.
The darkness will be rent by noise and flame.
Men's souls will be shaken with the violences of war.
For these men are lately drawn from the ways of peace.
They fight not for the lust of conquest.
They fight to end conquest.
They fight to liberate.
They fight to let justice arise, and tolerance and goodwill among all thy people.
They yearn but for the end of battle, for their return to the haven of home.
Some will never return.
Embrace these, Father, and receive them, thy heroic servants into thy kingdom.
And for us at home, fathers, mothers, children, wives, sisters, and brothers of brave men overseas whose thoughts and prayers are ever with them.
Help us, Almighty God, to rededicate ourselves in renewed faith in thee in this hour of great sacrifice.
Many people have urged that I call the nation into a single day of special prayer.
But because the road is long and the desire is great, I ask that our people devote themselves in countenance of prayer.
As we rise to each new day, and again when each day is spent, let words of prayer be on our lips, invoking thy help to our efforts.
Give us strength too, strengthen our daily tasks, to redouble the contributions we make in the physical and the material support of our armed forces, and let our hearts be stout, to wait out the long travail, to bear sorrows that may come, to impart our courage unto our sons wheresoever they may be.
And O Lord, give us faith.
Give us faith in thee, faith in our sons, faith in each other, faith in our united crusade.
Let not the keenness of our spirit ever be dulled.
Let not the impacts of temporary events of temporal matters of but fleeting moment, let not these deter us in our unconquerable purpose.
With thy blessing, we shall prevail over the unholy forces of our enemy.
Help us to conquer the apostles of greed and racial arrogancies, lead us to the saving of our country, and with our sister nations into a world unity that will spell a sure peace, a peace invulnerable to the schemings of unworthy men, and a peace that will let all men live in freedom, reaping the just rewards of their honest toil.
Thy will be done, Almighty God.
Amen.
That's 63 years ago, Franklin Delano Roosevelt on the radio, that's the uh did this on the day of the D-Day invasion, where six thousand Allied troops perish in one day.
Uh it helps to remember all this, to put current events in perspective, history history is always valuable for that because it shows us just how much perspective we lack, historical knowledge, context that we some of us are unable to apply to present-day circumstances.
Noteworthy also in this, not just the total we FDR as the president of the country threw this nation open to God's will.
He was a liberal Democrat.
Now, if FDR had been president at a Democrat Faith Forum on Monday night and said things like this, then I would have acknowledged that there's some genuine, obvious connection to God there, but that's not what we got from this current crop.
But the point is, this prayer could not be delivered by a president of the United States today.
Oh, he could deliver it.
But you know the you imagine the controversy, the outcries, the protests, the anger and the rage.
Because back then the nation was united in victory.
Today it's not.
Today there's a political party doing its best to secure defeat for their own personal political gain down the road.
And they would not stand for this.
Because they would accuse the president of offer who offered a prayer like this of suggesting that God was not on the Democrat side.
So it's interesting to hear this.
It's uh powerful to read it to you.
And I know that most of you probably heard it for the first time today.
Be back.
Continue after this.
All right, back to the phones we go.
I know you've been patient and I appreciate it.
We'll go to Maui, and this is John.
Thank you, sir.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Yeah, thank you, Rush.
Uh get your clubs in your fast brat back swing and some cash and come on out.
I'm going.
I'm gonna be there in August, but I'm not gonna be in Maui.
Why the way why do I need to bring a cash?
Uh we play for keeps.
Oh, and I'm gonna lose to you.
Is that is that the deal?
Where do you where do you where do you play in Maui?
Uh I usually play right here at Maui Country Club.
Uh there was a time when I used to go to the resort courses, but uh I grew out of that.
I can't play well at them.
Uh anyway, on the Valerie Plain situation, just a couple things.
One, uh the sentence that uh Scooter Libby got uh in light of what happened to Sandy Burger was just an outrage.
But more importantly, to begin with, Plaim was not audible within the meaning of the statute.
And the prosecutor should have known that within a uh a few days after this investigation began.
And so knowing this, he proceeded with the investigation, and along the way, Libby was convicted of perjury which impeded the investigation.
Well, it was an unnecessary investigation.
It's it's it's a process crime.
Yeah, well, yeah, well, how can you impede an investigation into a crime that one was not committed and two could not in fact have been committed.
But more importantly than that, what about the Attorney General and the director of the CIA?
The attorney general and and and more importantly, the the CIA director knew that claim was not audible within the meaning of the statute.
The attorney general also knew this, and while knowing it, unleashed a political zealot prosecutor with no boundaries, no reporting, no mandate, apparently, to prey on his own people.
What is with this administration?
Well, you're what world are they living in?
You're a retired judge, you tell us what's the what's the what uh it's all absurd to us.
This is Kafka-esque.
Yeah, it it it's it's shocking.
The you know the the the uh pressure on Gonzalez uh it in light of how he allowed Libby to be thrown to the dogs when there was no reason for it.
None whatsoever.
This thing could have been stopped by the director of the CIA coming out early on and simply saying we've determined that uh n our our employee's position is such that she does not come within the ambit of the statute.
And that that should have been the end of it then and there.
Oh, it you look it it's even worse than that.
It's uh we had the the the whole case was based on lies told by Joe Wilson who was never held accountable for them.
Valerie Playm's mane squeeze.
But John, before we go here, I want to I wanna I don't know if you heard this earlier today, but I want to read an excerpt of a letter that Paul Wolfowitz wrote to Judge Reggie Walton asking for leniency in the sentencing of Scooter Libby.
Now, this'll burn you up.
Because while none of the rest of this makes any sense, this judge gave this guy almost the entire sentence that the prosecutor asked for.
He asked for three years, he's getting two and a half, and it looks like he's going to be sent straight to jail.
He's not going to be allowed to remain free while uh the appeal process takes place.
And here's the excerpt from the letter that Wolfowitz wrote to the judge asking for leniency.
I also remember how Mr. Libby offered his services pro bono or at reduced costs after he had returned to private law practice to help former colleagues and friends with legal issues.
In one case, he helped a public official defend himself against libelous accusations, something that is extremely difficult to do for anybody in public office.
The official in question was Richard Armitage, who more recently served as deputy secretary of state.
It was Richard Armitage who first leaked Valerie Plaim's identity.
Scooter Libby helped bail Armitage out of problems.
Armitage let Libby twist in the wind.
I cannot, folks, imagine what it's like to be Scooter Libby today.
I cannot imagine what it's like to be his family.
I this is such just a fr a travesty from the get-go.
Now you asked why wasn't this case shut down when there was no need for it?
Uh that's at best all we can do is guess.
And my guess has always been that it was a big to-do about the independent counsel.
The media was demanding this.
Why, this woman's identity had been leaked.
Why, this was the only leak that the media ever cared to get to the bottom of.
And by the way, the only time I'm aware of they really ever cared about somebody at the CIA.
Because they knew who she was, and they knew who her husband was.
And they were both out trying to destroy the Bush administration.
The Bush administration sat back and let it all happen.
So the prosecutor gets involved, finds out there's no crime.
Can't just say, sorry, no crime here.
Everybody's got their, you know, hopes up, expectations high.
So you begin this big investigation, and you get your indictment, and you make it look like it was all worthwhile.
So there was no crime.
The crime was created in the process of conducting the investigation, the alleged crime, for which Libby's been convicted.
I I just seriously, I cannot relate to what it must be like today to be Scooter Libby and his family.
He's going to be questioning everything.
What what good is what I've done for this country?
What what good?
I mean, you talk about somebody's off everybody's radar.
Scooter, Scooter Libby never heard a soul.
Scooter Libby was just one of these loyal foot soldiers in the background of the administration.
It makes you wonder, you know, loyalty in way too many places in this country is a one-way street.
And it clearly looks like it's that way in this case.
Imagine, imagine if I had a story for you that uh went something like this.
Ex-president William J. Clinton sentenced to 30 months in jail and a 250,000 dollar fine.
The speculation's over, the judge has spoken, former President Clinton sentenced to 30 months in jail, two and a half years behind bars, slapped with a quarter of a million dollar fine.
You could call this ruling the sentence heard round the world, a tabloid scream, Clinton off to clink.
The New York Times more soberly hailing the sentence as appropriate indeed necessary punishment for Clinton's lies to a grand jury.
Their conclusion, at a time when high administration officials routinely dissembled and claim lapses of memory, immediate jail time for Mr. Clinton is the best way to send a message that obstruction of justice will be severely punished.
Our justice system has been tested and it has not failed us.
Historians will tell us how much the Clinton perjury affected the 2006 election, and how much the Clinton jail time will affect the 2008 election.
My friends, I'm not illustrating absurdity with absurdity, I'm illustrating Absurdity with name swapping.
Because this is what's happened to Scooter Libby, and he didn't do it.
He may not have lied.
It's still a matter of question.
Well, the jury says he did, so he did.
We know Clinton lied to a grand jury, suborned perjury among others.
Lied under oath to a federal judge.
Try this.
How about this?
Try this version of the story.
Scooter Libby, charged with lying to a grand jury, stays on job for two more years, gets 12 million dollar book deal, 40 million dollars in speaking fees, and a 200 million dollar library, and has become the Democrat Party's most favored ex-statesman roaming the world as their goodwill ambassador.
Bill Clinton lied to a grand jury, suborned perjury.
He gets 150 to 200,000 of speech, 12 million dollar book deal, 200 million dollar library.
Scooter Libby goes to jail for two and a half years.
The correct comparison here is not Scooter Libby to Sandy Burglar.
It is Scooter Libby to Bill Clinton.
Now, this illustration is flawed, obviously, because Clinton knowingly lied to the grand jury.
He did it on purpose.
Libby might or might not have.
And so many people in the country with apologies to Simon and Garfunkel and Mrs. Robinson.
Where have you gone, George W. They want the pardon.
The White House says we're not going to intervene.
We never do until the appeals process is over.
They want to cur they people want a political witch hunt here corrected.
And they want the president to defend his defenders.
Still time.
We'll be back after this.
Don't go away.
And we are back, L. Rushbow on a roll, ladies and gentlemen, a national treasure, a living legend, now documented to be almost always right, 97 uh 98.7% of the time.
Damon in Homer, Louisiana.
Welcome to the program, sir.
Yeah, thank you, sir.
It's great.
I always love getting people uh from Cajun Country.
Hey, look, Rush, I'm gonna go ahead and take the other side of the I say that the two wimps on that plane were the guys who didn't put up a fight.
The thing is, look, the thing is this is that I work in a oil field and have been all over the world and I've traveled a lot on the airplanes, and I know how it works.
You know, after a couple of weeks on the rig, wait a minute.
These are troublemakers.
These are these are people intended, you don't ever know what they intend on this airplane.
You wish they would have been successful.
Oh.
See, the thing is, is that if they were not if they were mostly harmless, then it was okay.
But you know what?
I tell you what.
If I were if I was drinking and the flight attendants didn't even give me a warning, and some two old guys came up to me and throw it up to me, there would be a fight.
I can guarantee you that.
I might have not have won, but I would have gone down.
Well, that's that's a that's a fantastic perspective.
I mean, I enjoy getting a real man perspective on this.
Taking the side of the perp set.
You know, all because you don't think they got a warning, right?
Well, I mean, I don't know, but I think they did standard procedure.
When you drink an excessively on a plane, you know, the first thing they do is they start to believe.
Wait a minute now, wait.
Wait a minute.
Wait, it's hard to believe that you may be more informed than I on this, but I didn't were they drinking?
Well, uh, it just if they were being routed, they probably were drinking.
But I mean, if it's just a bunch of boys, you know, if they were warned not to stop making some uh noise and they didn't, and those guys coming up and and but you know, and then too.
It was more than noise.
They were faking heart attacks.
They were they were clearly trying to people were there was there was curiosity about whether or not they were, you know, scoping things out for future missions.
People have to be concerned about this on airplanes these days.
Oh, yeah.
Well, all I know is that if two old guys would have come up to me and I wouldn't have been warned by the flight attendants to stop making uh a little rowdy scene, that would have been a fight.
I can like Justin Wilson always said, I guarantee.
Justin Wilson.
Is he still around?
I don't know.
He ain't even from uh Louisiana.
Uh all right.
Well, Damon, look, I appreciate the call.
Fascinating, uh fascinating perspective on this.
Uh Donald in Evansville, Indiana.
You're next on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hello.
Hey.
Testing.
Donald, are you there?
Yes, I am, yes.
Welcome, sir.
Thank you.
We're we're on the air.
This is your turn now.
Oh, well, I you had I uh I just heard you say uh you wondered uh about s uh somebody had actually been at Normandy and what they uh thought of the situation today.
I was on a uh destroyer um at uh Normandy, D Day H hour, and uh we were uh uh we were patrolling up and down the land and landing craft to protect them from submarines and eboats.
And uh uh so I I remember just you know as if it was yesterday.
I'm sure.
How old are you today?
I'm eighty-two.
Eighty-two.
Yes.
Have you been to any of the reunions?
Uh we have a reunion every year.
No, but over there, have you been like the fiftieth anniversary and the sixtieth?
Have you been to any of those?
At back at Normandy.
None of those.
Uh the only uh sixtieth reunion I went to was uh uh later on we uh went down and picked up the King of Saudi Arabia and took him up to p uh talked to President Roosevelt.
And uh the uh friends of Saudi Arabia had a 60th anniversary uh party uh well they had other things going on, but they invited us down to uh Miami uh for the sixtieth uh which was on Valentine's Day 2005.
But that's the only uh Well here's the here's here's here's the question that I that I asked, and I want to go back and put it in the context.
I asked it because I had just read a story of an amendment to the immigration bill in the Senate that had been defeated.
It was an amendment offered by Senator Kyle.
Senator Kyle's amendment would have uh th uh not permitted uh felons to become legal citizens, uh and it would have uh deported illegals who are felons now, and that was defeated.
It was def the effort to get rid of illegal citizens who are or illegal uh immigrants who are felons was defeated.
And I just I casually knowing this is the 63rd anniversary, I threw it out there.
I said, gee, wife, is anybody that served uh during the in the D-Day invasion, what must you be thinking?
And that's that's what made you call.
What are you thinking of?
I'm uh I'm uh have been a member of the Heritage Foundation for several years, and I'm conservative, and I uh voted for President Bush twice, and uh and I voted for Republicans last time, but I uh refused to donate any money to them.
And um I uh on this immigration bill, I uh contacted uh uh one of the senators, the Republican Senator, and I re uh contacted our uh r new representative who is uh Democrat, and uh uh the uh Democrat uh emailed me and said he was going to vote against the immigration bill,
and uh uh he was a former sheriff of the county here, and uh I guess he knows you know what lawbreakers are like and uh so uh I uh I have been uh everybody I could uh express my opinion to I have been very much against this immigration bill.
And uh I uh emailed the White House and all I got back from there was that uh they received my email, but they didn't have time to read all of them in the Well, does it make you I've got one minute here.
Uh this is maybe a bit unfair to ask, but I'm I'm gonna ask it.
Does it make no, I'm sure it doesn't.
I shouldn't even ask this.
Go ahead and ask it.
Well, is it does it does it does it make you wonder what you were fighting for on D Day?
Uh no, I know what I was fighting for, but it makes me sick to see what is uh what they're doing to our country.
Well uh uh millions of Americans are with you.
I can't tell you what an honor it is that uh A, you're in the audience, and B that you got through today.
Uh I thank you.
I uh uh it's good to talk to you.
Thank you very much.
Uh do listen to you.
Uh it's my honor, Donald.
This is Donald from uh Evansville, Indiana, and uh a veteran of the Normandy invasion, which uh took place sixty-three years ago today.
All right, folks, uh, this is worth what it's uh costing you.
Just got I just got some uh little birds telling me, let's put it that way.
More turbulence is about to hit the Hillary campaign.
Uh somebody's leaking more campaign documents of hers, like the skip Iowa document because she can't win.
But this time the leaks are to the New York Times and uh uh might might hit as early as tomorrow.
Somebody sabotaging or trying to sabotage the Hillary campaign.
Export Selection
