Time Text
Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen.
Great to be with you.
It's the Rush Limbaugh program, sizzling and cooking the fastest three hours in media here.
Rolling right on, we'll be talking to you in a moment here.
As we go to the phones, telephone number 800-282-2882.
The email address is rush at EIBnet.com.
The religion of peace has struck again.
President Mahmoud Abbas will dissolve the Palestinian Authorities' government Thursday after fighting between rival parties, Hamas and Fatah, consumed the Gaza Strip, was expected to call for a state of emergency.
Hamas fighters took control from two of the rival Fatah movement's most important security command centers in the Gaza Strip.
And witnesses said that the victors dragged vanquished gunmen into the street, shot them to death, execution style.
So what we're going to have here, ladies and gentlemen, will have a three-state solution now.
The diplomats will say, oh, okay, goodie.
We got more problems here to solve with diplomas.
We go, three-state solution.
We'll have Hamas in Gaza.
We'll have Fatah in the West Bank, if any of them are left alive.
And of course, Israel.
Of course, this is all Israel's fault anyway.
They didn't torture them.
At least you got to say that for these guys.
They didn't torture the Fatah guys.
They just dragged them out in the street and shot them.
No Abu grab for these guys.
No club gitmo for these guys.
Just bang.
Dead.
No torture whatsoever.
The spokesman for the Hamas militia said, we are telling our people that the past era has ended and will not return.
The era of justice and Islamic rule, the religion of peace, I threw those words in myself, have now arrived.
By the way, Senator Hillary Clinton, Democrat New York, running for president, reported that her husband, former President Bill Clinton, Democrat Arkansas, made more than $10 million in paid speeches last year.
The couple held two accounts, a regular bank account and a blind trust, each valued at between $5 million and $25 million.
Don't you love these ranges and the reporting requirements?
The forms do not require Congress members to report exact figures, only to note the range that their holdings fall within.
They came to Washington with nothing.
They had something in whitewater would have worked, but it didn't.
They've now turned their public offices into a fortune.
I might add, Bill Clinton is making these $10 million in speeches by talking about me.
In every speech he gives now, he references me in the Human Genome Project in this little line of his, that he has learned that we're all 99.9% the same, and that he ran into me in a restaurant in New York one night and was tempted to tell me, hey, Limbaugh, you and I 99.9% of the time, but I didn't have the heart to tell the poor man because I think he would flee the restaurant in tears.
That's his line.
It's in every speech that he gives.
James Taranto at the bestoftheweb.com, WallStreetJournal.com, a leading Democrat lawmaker, lashed out at the former leaders of Germany and France, calling former German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder a political prostitute.
This is the AP from Washington yesterday.
I'm so glad the era of Jacques Chirac and Chancellor Schroeder in Germany is now gone, said Tom Lantos, Democrat California, to applause.
He said when the U.S. asked Schroeder to support his decision to go to war in Iraq, he told us where to go.
I referred to him as a political prostitute now that he's taking big checks from Vladimir Putin.
But the sex workers in my district objected, so I will no longer use that phrase, Lantos said.
Lantos said that Chirox should go down to the Normandy beaches.
Should see these endless rows of white marble crosses and stars of David representing young Americans who gave their lives for the freedom of France.
He said under the successors of Schroeder and Chirock, that'd be Angela Markle in Germany and Nick Sarkozy in France, relations with the U.S. will take a very positive turn.
Well, now, isn't this fascinating?
Isn't that fascinating?
Why, I thought it was our fault that the French and the Germans hated us.
I thought it was Bush's fault.
I thought he had destroyed our reputation and our image around the world.
Now we find out it's Chirock and Schroeder who were to blame from Tom Lantos, Democrat California.
In fact, as Mr. Taranto points out, a few years ago, Donald Rumsfeld was disparaging old Europe while Lantos' fellow Democrats were accusing the Bush administration of alienating America's allies, most notably Germany and France.
You remember all that.
It looks as though Rumsfeld was right, and the allies have come around to the extent that they are capable of doing so.
Once again, reports of the Bush administration's failure in this area gradually are greatly exaggerated.
These guys, they are.
These Democrats are just relentless.
They don't stop.
You know, I like the mafia.
They're patient.
If you end up in their crosshairs in 15 years, and they're going to get you.
And they won't stop until they do.
And they'll make the biggest mountain out of the smallest molehill.
Of course, they are aided in this effort by their willing accomplices in the drive-by media.
Republicans do not play the game this way.
They just do not play the game this way.
It's not in them.
They will tell you, and I've asked a bunch of, what do you guys, if you're not going to go on the offense, why don't you at least fight back against some of these outrageous things said?
President Bush on down.
Well, if we tried that, we wouldn't get the coverage.
Yes, you would.
At least you'd get coverage at first.
You'd get novelty coverage because it's so surprising drive-by media.
They say, whoa, what are the Republicans doing here?
And they report on it.
And of course, they would characterize it as the Republicans being responsible for the lack of civility and reasoned discourse in the culture.
But you know who'd love it?
And it's all of us.
You know, Republican voters have been sitting around, I think, since the budget battle in 1995 for some of this return fire.
Anyway, they just, I mean, they're going after.
Look at Petraeus.
These guys all voted for Petraeus in the Senate.
Senate voted for Petraeus to be the new chief over there in Iraq.
Hit up surge and do all this.
Now all of a sudden, Dingy Harry and Ellen Tosher, Congresswoman from California, ripping Peter Pace, the chairman of Joint Chiefs, and they're ripping Petraeus, Dingy Harry ripping Petraeus.
And you know why they're doing that?
It's because everybody's pointed out, wait a minute, you unanimously confirmed his appointment to do exactly what he's doing.
Now you're pronouncing it a failure?
The Democrats' reaction is, all right, you're going to remind everybody?
You're going to remind everybody that we unanimously supported Petraeus?
Fine.
We're going to take him out.
We're going to politicize this.
We're going to politicize everything.
You keep reminding the American people of our hypocrisy.
We're going to take your guys out.
We don't care how long it takes.
We'll do it, and you're not going to stop us.
And that's what they're...
And by the way, Pace is out.
Pace has been thrown overboard by Bob Gates, the defense secretary.
I just told Mr. Snurdley, I think Carl Levin's running the Pentagon, a Democrat on the Armed Services Committee.
Because it appears to me that Gates is new-toning it here, trying to give Levin everything he wants, including the heads of the top commanders that the Democrats don't like.
John McCain, by the way, plummeting in the polls.
It's in bad shape.
His fundraising is in bad, bad, bad, bad shape.
He is guardedly optimistic about the immigration bill getting back on the floor of the Senate, said he believes there's still a chance for the bill currently stalled in the Senate to come forward for a vote.
Says, I'm guardedly optimistic.
I emphasize guardedly optimistic.
We can get the bill to the floor of the Senate just before the 4th of July recess and pass it through the U.S. Senate.
He also took a shot at Hillary Clinton, Democrat New York, for including earmarks or narrowly targeted spending requests in the defense authorization.
By the way, she is the earmark queen.
Mrs. Clinton is the earmark clean.
McCain said that Hillary Clinton had over $100 million in such funds attached to the bill and added, We can't do this earmarking and pork barreling if we're ever going to be careful and serious stewards of the taxpayers' dollars.
That has to make you laugh.
Serious stewards of the taxpayers' dollars.
Senator McCain had never met a tax cut he liked.
Thomas Sowell has a great column today, and he tries to, well, he doesn't try effectively, makes the point here about proper terms of usage in, say, the illegal immigration debate or the amnesty bill.
He said, people who are pushing for guest worker programs show not the slightest interest in what has been happening under guest worker programs in Europe.
Facts are apparently irrelevant, so is logic.
We wanted to turn to Europe for everything else, but we don't want to turn to Europe for this, and here's why: guests are people you invite into your home.
Gate crashers are people who come without being invited.
Home invaders are people who break in despite doors that have been shut to keep them out.
If the discussion of immigration laws respected either logic or honesty, we would be talking about a program to legalize home invaders instead of a guest worker program.
As for facts, guest workers from third world countries have created centers of crime and violence in Europe.
Some guest worker communities have become breeding grounds for terrorists.
Just as crime and violence in American inner cities have led not only to white flight, but also to a flight of the black, Hispanic, and Asian middle classes, so in Europe, much of the native-born European populations fled from cities like Amsterdam, Rotterdam, and Brussels.
Joel Kotkin's classic book, The City, noted the influx of immigrants who were recruited to Europe during the labor shortages of the 50s and 60s, who have become an increasingly angry, sometimes violent element in what long had been remarkably peaceful urban areas.
Another classic book, Our Culture, What's Left of It, by Theodore Dalrymple, found a similar pattern in France.
Long before the Muslim riots in Paris, which shocked France and the world, Dalrymple pointed out how immigrants in France had become a major source of crime and violence, not only in Paris, but in other parts of the country.
So there's evidence that guest worker programs are actually home invader programs.
The evidence is clear to say that they don't work and they cause problems.
The evidence is being ignored by the likes of Senator McCain, Senator Kennedy, and all the others, Senator Gramnesty, who can't wait to bring the bill back to the floor to try again.
Oh, wow.
Been looking forward to this call since I first saw it up on the board.
We have Lynette from Broward County, Florida on with us.
Nice to have you, Lynette.
Thank you.
Thank you.
This is an honor, and you're my hero.
Wow.
I live in Broward County.
Yes.
And I don't believe global warming is caused by humans.
I support President Bush.
I support the war in Iraq.
And I'm a registered Democrat.
And you're a woman, so that makes perfect sense.
Yes, yes, yes.
And I'm rip-roaring mad at the far-left liberals for what they say and what they do.
They've got the congressional majority, but that doesn't mean that they speak for all the Americans.
And what really gets me mad is before they won back the House, their claim to fame was that they were going to take back the country.
Well, who were they taking it back from?
Conservative Republican invaders.
They're Americans, too.
No, they are, but I mean, take back the country.
They personalize everything.
When they lost the House in 1994, they felt the country had been taken from them.
You run the House of Representatives, you run the money, and that means you run the country.
All spending bills originate there.
That's the power.
That's what Washington exists to do.
Government exists to perpetuate itself and spend money.
And the fact that they lost it after holding it for 40 years, that's what they meant by the country.
Democrats running Washington is the natural order of things.
Anything else is a hiccup or an aberration.
Well, they're the aberration, if you ask me.
And I'm sorry, but the things that the liberal Democrats say against President Bush, they ought to be hung by their toenails and boiled in oil.
And Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, oh my gosh, don't even get me started on them.
Well, I actually kind of like to hear that.
They're blithering idiots.
Stuff that comes out of their mouth, I can't, they're like children.
You know, they sit there and they say to President Bush, if you do this, then okay, but then President Bush does it.
And they go, yeah, but you didn't do it the way we wanted you to.
Spoiled Brits.
Spoiled little children.
Why are you still a Democrat?
Because I think I can do more damage to them, and perhaps I can even possibly, possibly get them to listen to me being a registered Democrat.
Because if I'm a registered Republican, forget it.
They won't hear a word you have to say.
But being as I'm a voter and a registered Democrat, they may at least read what I write to them.
Interesting point.
Interesting point.
Well, look, Lynette, thanks for calling.
I appreciate the nice things that you said.
Well, thank you for informing the public on the right way to think.
Because some people just don't even think.
They just listen to the news and accept it as the gospel truth.
I know.
That is a big.
There's a surprising number of people in this country that still.
And they're somewhat aged now and seasoned.
But their total exposure to the events of the news, the events of the day is the 22 Minutes of the Evening Newscast that the dumbed-down, tarted-up CBS news and things like that.
Loretta in Massapequa, Long Island, welcome to the EIB network.
What was that?
You got a buzz on the line.
All right.
Well, she wants me to talk about the earmark of the Pelosi earmark defeat.
Actually, it could have been a weather alert.
You know, the Republicans.
I've got the story.
I haven't printed it out.
I'll do that during the break coming up here at the bottom of the hour.
But she wanted me to talk about the Pelosi earmark defeat or the Obi earmark defeat.
The Republicans have defeated this in the House of Representatives, and I'll have it coming up.
You know, we had the story yesterday from the Washington Post polling data on Mrs. Clinton.
Her strength is with poor, uneducated women, poor, stupid women, dumb women, whatever.
And Obama is attracting the educated smart women, wealthy women.
So Hillary is attracting the women who have needs.
Obama's getting the women who have desires.
USA Today, Democrat Barack Obama surpassing Hillary Rodham Clinton in campaign contributions from areas with blacks of above average income, according to a USA Today analysis.
So Obama's getting a lot of money from areas of the country with blacks of above average income.
The Illinois senators receive more than double the number of campaign contributions from zip codes with sizable concentrations of upper income blacks than Clinton.
And this is an analysis of first quarter campaign records.
Well, now, I'm sure many of you are stunned to find out that there are upper income blacks, because this is a story that is not told often in the drive-by media.
The drive-by media may not even know they're there or think if they are there, they got to be conservative so they really don't count.
They're not authentic.
But I guess Hillary's accent down there in Selma and all that is not playing to upper-income blacks.
You know, goes down there and starts singing and speaking in the dialect of her audience.
You know, she's got this You Can Learn to Do It Too program.
She has this You Can Learn to Do It Too program, and it's obviously not working.
It's not attracting the above average income well-to-do blacks.
But see, this is actually not a problem.
For Mrs. Clinton, the more stupid her voting base, the better off for her.
Obama even went out and said, yeah, well, we're working on this.
I know we've got the upper educated, upper-income, educated women.
We're not forgetting the poor, stupid ones, and we're going to go out there and make every effort to get them.
Didn't use those words, but they're easier to control and keep dependent.
Well, Donovan works fast.
I issued that order yesterday and he gets it done today.
Even though they got new owners over there to worry about.
Greetings, my friends.
Welcome back.
El Rushbo's serving humanity, a cutting edge of societal evolution.
All right, here's the story on the earmarks.
This is from Fox News.
Republicans claimed victory today in a battle to force Democrats to abandon plans to bypass early disclosures on thousands of requests, the earmarks.
Why don't these people just say earmarks rather than call them thousands of requests made by lawmakers for pet projects?
Call them earmarks.
The fight over these pet projects, earmarks for two days held up a budget bill that would fund the Homeland Security Department.
Republican leaders then announced an agreement that would allow floor debates on earmarks.
John Boehner praised the agreement reached between Republicans and Democrats to bring an end to secret slush funds for earmarks.
Boehner said, I think that we won this round.
Now, what was happening here?
The Democrats ran on a culture of corruption.
Republicans are corrupt.
Earmarks and all those pork barrel projects.
They vowed to clean that all up.
David Obie of Wisconsin got involved.
No, we're not going to clean it up.
We're going to put these earmarks at the end of the budget process.
We're going to do all these things after the bill is signed, after it's passed.
That's when we're going to add these things.
And the Republicans, you thought you damn well are not going to do that.
And Obie said, you do it, I'm going to demonize you.
You do it, and I'm going to make you pay for it.
And the Republicans said, go ahead, you demonize us every day anyway.
What's new about that?
And they just stuck it to him.
Now, listen to the San Francisco Chronicle treatment of this story Before the Republicans claimed victory, for the second straight day, minority House Republicans ground the House to a standstill on Wednesday as they drove home their objections to a plan to deny a floor vote on lawmakers' thousands of pet projects.
Earmarks.
Pet projects, my shrinking rear end.
Public anger over the surging number of pet projects called earmarks, derided as pork barrel spending.
Derided is pork barrel spending.
Nothing's ever what it is when the Democrats are doing it, is it?
Was a factor.
Public anger was a factor in the Republicans' loss of House control last November.
Republican members concede that.
And now they're saying they've gotten religion on the need for openness in government.
Democrats argued that Republicans were engaging.
Get this now, the San Francisco Chronicle.
Democrats argued Republicans were engaging in partisan attacks to try to embarrass the Speaker, Nancy Pelosi.
This was business as usual.
There was nothing other.
The Democrats were just conducting business as usual.
Now, the Democrats whining that the Republicans are trying to embarrass Pelosi.
Now, this story is from yesterday, so before the Republicans claim victory.
If the Democrats aren't whining about this, trying to change the subject, then it means they had the goods.
They had the goods on what Obi and the Democrats were trying to do.
Joseph in Boston, I'm glad you called, sir.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Hi, Rush.
Thank you for taking my call.
Yes.
I just wanted to comment on the colleague who called talking about the estate tax.
Yes, sir.
And you left him off saying it was a socialist policy.
I know Warren Buffett is a big socialist.
Well, he's a big proponent of the state tax, and he opposed Bush's planned elimination of the state tax.
Yes.
And I mean, I think you would be hard-pressed to call Warren Buffett, I mean, he's basically the biggest capitalist in the world.
He's a capitalist.
He's a capitalist.
He's a huge liberal.
I mean, this guy can't wait, get in a voting booth and pull the lever for Hillary Clinton fast enough, and she's going to take oil company profits if she gets her way.
I know Warren Buffett.
I've heard him speak about the inheritance tax.
He used to have a charity golf tournament, and I played in it, and he's very passionate about it.
He doesn't think that kids who haven't earned anything are entitled to what their fathers or mothers have earned.
They ought to go out and earn it on their own.
But he's going to leave them a couple billion each.
Yeah.
Well, I mean.
If you got a net worth of whatever his is, $80 billion, and you can then stand on principle, I am opposed to the estate tax, and leave your kids $2 billion each, or whatever it is.
I think you're playing both sides against the middle here.
Well, I mean, I'm just trying to...
But conceptually, it is socialist.
It is the redistribution of wealth.
It is 55% is the tax bracket after whatever exemption for the first pittance.
55%.
And it's express purpose.
The people that support it and don't want to do away with it will tell you it is for the express purpose of redistribution of wealth.
It's to get that money into government and out of the private sector's hands.
Well, I mean, Warren Buffett, I mean, he's not a socialist.
I don't see by what stretch of you.
Maybe not intentionally.
You look at people's results.
Maybe not intentionally.
Look, there's no difference in socialism and liberalism.
It just isn't.
Cut to the chase here.
Well, I mean, I think there is a difference.
Well, can you, you know what you're arguing with me here by using a personality, a wealthy guy, and you're assuming that because he's a very wealthy capitalist, he has to be an evil Republican.
And even Republicans, like Warren Buffett, in your mind, are opposed to the estate tax, so it must mean the estate tax, the inherited tax being eliminated, so it must be a good thing.
That is tortured logic.
Take a look at what actually happens when you literally have the government steal 55% of people's estates that they've worked all their lives for, and people work to produce and to provide for their families.
Now, I think it ought to be left up to the family.
If Buffett doesn't want to donate or doesn't want to have his kids inherit that much money because he thinks it's going to just ⁇ I happen to agree with him, by the way.
I think one of the biggest problems that wealthy people have is their kids and the lifestyles that they live.
And if they're not taught to produce on their own, then you're going to have problems.
But let the individual family members decide that.
Why do we assume that the best use of the money individuals have worked all their lives for is in the hands of people like the Clintons and Ted Kennedy?
Well, I think one of Buffett's reasons for supporting the estate tax is that, like you said, I mean, if you answer the typical question, well, I will, hold on.
If people know, okay, either the government's going to get the money or they could give it to charity and put it to a presumably better use than giving it to the government, which, I mean, we assume they would waste a lot of it, that they would choose to give it to charity.
So it's sort of like an incentive, either, okay, you can give it to charity and they'll go to fight cancer or AIDS or poverty in third world countries, whatever you want.
You know, you can preemptively give it away to charity.
You know how to interpret that?
Do you know how to interpret that?
Warren Buffett is admitting he doesn't want the money to go to government.
If he's said that he's going to overload charities with it, which, by the way, he's already started doing.
He's invested a lot of money in Bill and Melinda Gates' charity out there.
And a lot of people, a lot of wealthy people set up foundations and they do this to keep the government from getting the money.
They also keep themselves from getting the money when they do that.
The ideal way to go out is with nothing left.
That's the ideal.
Figure it out.
Have fun with what you've earned.
Go out because you're dead.
You don't know.
Leave a little bit for your family and so forth, but make sure the government gets zilch.
They've already taxed you throughout your whole life at the state, at the federal level, gasoline, you name it.
I think the problem here is that so many people, it's just happened over the course of so many years now.
The government is grand.
The government is superb.
The government is wonderful.
The government is benevolent.
The government loves us.
The government protects us.
The government does this and that.
And on some things it does, but it gets enough.
$3 trillion budget.
Incomprehensible.
And we still hear about how there are cuts.
I love this.
We get the budget every year.
It always goes up.
And yet there are draconian cuts.
The budget's dead on arrival or what have you.
State governments.
Have you seen the story?
They're awash in cash.
They're more, folks, governments, state, city, federal have more money than you can possibly imagine.
Can I tell you what happened to us that live here in Palm Beach?
I have to tell you this.
You know, the state of Florida, there is a huge fight going on over property tax reform.
They've called the legislature into a special session because Florida does it right.
The regular session for the Florida legislature is two months.
And whatever they don't get done in two months, that's it.
But on this thing, the governor's called a special session because he's got his own plan or a bunch of competing plans.
I don't know which one's going to win if one does.
But local governments down here are in a panic because they think that if the property tax revenues or property taxes are cut, that why social services will suffer.
Fire and police services will suffer.
Why do we have to close the city?
Oh, it's horrible.
Every entity in this world, you, I, everybody, we have to get by with less.
Government never will.
Government's never forced to, even when they cut our taxes, they got to make it up somewhere else with a tax increase somewhere.
I opened a mail the other day and there was a letter from my mayor asking me to get hold of my Florida legislator and demand that there be no property tax cut.
And every resident here of my little town got one.
It cost them $5,000 to send these letters out.
I got three of them because of the way the parcels are arranged.
I'm reading this letter and it was a plea.
Palm Beach will cease to exist as you wrote it.
This and that.
We need this.
We've only got this and that.
I looked at this.
I was tempted to write a letter to the editor.
The only problem is I knew it'd get published.
You know, and they're scouting my property every night for violation of the turtle ordinance.
So I got to play it close to the vest.
But honestly, my theory on taxes out there is just they get enough.
They got enough and they never do without and they ought to try doing without.
They have so much waste, so much redundancy, so much fraud.
The willingness of some to sit by and see other people literally have their wealth absconded in the form of the inheritance tax is something that's offensive to me.
But that's why liberalism succeeded, because it's all based on envy.
Yeah, yeah, those rich people.
Well, let them find out.
Let those kids of the rich find out what it's like to be poor like I am or middle class like I am.
And they're going to tax all that money and you're never going to see it.
It's not going to change your life whatsoever.
And if you want to be made happy by wallowing in the misery of others, then shame on you.
Hi, we're back.
Rush Limbaugh, talent on loan from God.
Email here from a subscriber at rushlimbaugh.com.
Dear Rush, ditto's Rush, may I comment that lumping all the less educated women under the term stupid is somewhat offensive to me.
I did not complete college, but I'm fully aware that I'm an intelligent woman.
Thanks, comma.
Love the show.
Sue from Canton, Georgia.
Sue, I can understand why you'd be offended by this, but the bottom line is the story and the Washington Post story and the polling data clearly meant stupid, ignorant.
Not trying to be offensive here, dumb, whatever.
They use the words less educated.
This is the point.
They aren't calling it as it is.
They use all these terms designed to be politically correct.
But the point of the story was that it is women who are not engaged in things.
They're not paying attention.
They're not that bright.
That Hillary's attracting.
And that's fine with her, by the way.
You've got to understand this.
That is why Obama's out there.
Well, don't worry.
We're still competitive in that arena for the ignorant.
We're not giving up on the ignorant.
They want them.
It's like Gary Sheffield said about Latins and baseball are controllable.
If you're upset about it, become a conservative.
And there were no way you will be stupid, dumb, what have you.
Have you seen this music video on YouTube that this babe singing to Barack Obama?
It's described here.
This is one of Barack's women with desires.
That's another post story.
He said, Hillary's voters are women with needs, meaning they're poor.
And Barack's female voters are those with desires, meaning their needs are satisfied.
Their desires, that's what Barack's for.
And so one of those women has done an amusing, this is Jake Tapper at ABC News, an amusing, risque music video featuring a newbie young woman breathlessly singing her love for Obama appeared on the web this week titled I Got a Crush on Obama.
The song and the video took the Obama campaign by surprise and further demonstrated how the democratic nature of the internet, specifically internet video, is affecting politics in unpredictable ways.
Now, you know, yip, yip, yip, yip, yahoo, but I remember the ad that Republicans, Bob Corker, ran against Harold Ford in Tennessee.
That's racist.
And Chris Matthews for three or four nights in a row.
What do you think those hicks in the bars on Friday night drinking alone star longnecks out there from Texas think of that commercial when they see it?
They think racism.
They think.
But here, this story is, it's just cute.
Look at this little girl.
Get this little Christ in Obama.
Why, the impact of the internet on politics deserves our serious examination.
Omar in Dallas, speaking of lone star longnecks, nice to have you with us.
Yeah, my comment is about the immigration deal.
First of all, listen, what I want to say, we want to say sorry to all American people because we brought the law when we come over, you know, America.
Okay?
Listen, the deal on immigration, I just wonder why we don't give it a, you know, the, you know, the chance, the opportunity to the illegal people to become legal and show us they're not criminal.
Why we don't do that?
You know, any criminal, you know, in the war, you know, they got to change, you know, go to trial, you know.
Hey, Omar, you got nothing to worry about here because nobody's going to throw you out.
