Time Text
And greetings, my friends.
Welcome back.
Great to have you with us.
This is the Rush Limbaugh program.
The fastest three hours in media.
The fastest week in media.
800-282-2882.
If you want to be on the program, the email address, El Rushball, at EIBNet.com.
Your phone calls.
I'll try to get to them as soon as I can here in this hour.
We've got some audio sound bites coming up.
One of them, the Clintons, the whole campaign is so ungrateful for what we're doing for them.
I'm not surprised about it.
I just, well, no, I'm really not.
I'm not surprised about it.
But you'll hear what I'm talking about in just a moment.
First, ladies and gentlemen, time for a Nancy Pelosi update.
You know what the Queen Bee Syndrome is.
There will not be two women sharing power.
One of the women will see to it.
The other woman is under the bus.
And so Nancy Pelosi today, holding her weekly press conference, was asked about the concept of a dream ticket for the Democrat Party.
Hillary and Obama or Obama and Hillary.
The Queen Bee in Washington.
Nancy Pelosi threw cold water on this whole idea.
She said, take it from me.
That won't be the ticket.
A bunch of reporters then shouted, why?
She declined to elaborate.
She said, you want me to go through a lifetime of political gut?
I do think we'll have a dream team.
It just won't be those two names.
Meaning, if Nancy Pelosi has anything to say about it, Hillary Clinton will not be anywhere near the Democrat nomination.
She will not be on that ticket.
She's not talking about Obama here.
She is talking about Hillary.
The last thing Pelosi wants, chaos, chaos, chaos.
The last thing she wants is Hillary Clinton in the White House.
That will render her unnoticeable as Speaker of the House.
Neutered, if you will.
Spayed.
And so what will happen here?
What will happen here is that Pelosi, who already holds her seat, is going to do whatever she has to to see to it that Hillary does not get hers.
I mean, fine if she stays over there in the Senate, and even better if she goes back to the Senate as a loser.
Now, I mentioned earlier that the state of Florida has come up with a new way or an idea here of redoing their primary.
I'm holding here in my formerly nicotine-stained fingers a printed story from today's Palm Beach Post.
Florida Democrats on Wednesday sent a preliminary plan for a do-over primary to party leaders, presidential candidates, and the Democrat National Committee.
In the five-page packet, Democrat Party chairwoman Karen Thurman, and this babe, trust me on this, is a piece of work.
And I think Karen Thurman is in Hillary's back pocket, but I think that these two are inseparable.
But regardless, Karen Thurman runs a Democrat Party here in Florida.
She sent members, she urged members, to put aside differences and consider an incredible opportunity.
She said, we are all in this primary situation together.
The stark reality is that all Democrats lose if this is not solved immediately.
She has asked party leaders for feedback by Friday evening, said she would review the comments this weekend and be in touch again on Monday.
Said that if there was consensus, which House Democrat leader Dan Gelber said was the biggest obstacle to the plan, the party was ready to move forward.
State party rules.
Let me just get to the draft of the proposal.
May 21st, replacement ballots would be mailing.
They're going to be mailed here to 4.1 million Democrats.
It's going to cost 12 million bucks.
Ballots would be mailed to all 4.1 million registered Democrats with prepaid return envelopes at least two weeks before Election Day, which would be June 3rd.
They would be printed in English, Spanish, and Creole.
Ballots printed, English, Spanish, and Creole, and list only Hillary Clinton and Barack Hussein Obama.
Instead of forwarding a ballot to a new address, the party would mail a card to voters notifying them of the opportunity to update their records and receive a new ballot.
The party would set up 50 offices across the state to ensure disadvantaged communities have the ability to vote.
Voters.
Now, wait a minute.
We're talking mail here.
50 offices across the state to ensure disadvantaged communities have the ability to vote.
Voters would be able to return ballots, cast provisional ballots, or vote in person at the regional office.
Now, wait a minute.
I thought this was a mail-in ballot.
Now you're going to go to 50 disadvantaged communities and let them show up somewhere in person.
What?
When they pick up the rations of beans and rice?
You realize what this is?
Do you realize what you're going to have 4.1 ballots mailed, but then in these disadvantaged areas, a whole different set of rules.
Voters would be able to return ballots rather than mail them, cast provisional ballots, or vote in person at the regional offices.
Democrats would hire an election management company with experience in special elections to administer the contest.
The party also would hire an accounting firm and form a commission of party leaders to oversee the process.
Do you think Obama has any kind of an organization to get in on this?
Never before has the state of Florida Democrat Party been able to communicate with every registered Democrat in the state, wrote Thurman, the chairwoman.
The unfortunate circumstances that led us to where we are now ironically provide us with an incredible opportunity to reach voters and build a party like never before.
This is a chicken with its head cut off, running around trying to find itself.
Do you realize this is the best recipe for fraud I have ever heard?
And they are open and they are proud of it and they are detailing it.
How many, you know, here in Palm Beach County, you're going to have two names.
You'll have Obama and Hillary.
How many Democrats in Palm Beach County will vote Pat Buchanan this time?
Write him in and then protest their own vote.
Are you going to have to mark an X on this ballot?
Do you punch it out?
Are you going to have to sign your ballot?
Is it going to have to be notarized?
I mean, you realize they start mailing these things.
Have you heard of copy machines?
I got to take a break here, folks.
I'm laughing so much.
My lingering, hacking cough from the vestiges of that common cold virus is still causing me to cough.
I got to take a break.
I was just asked, where has Bill Clinton been the last news cycle, last four or five days?
I had a story about him.
He said he was somewhere yesterday or the day before.
It said something.
I had the story in the stack.
I didn't get to it.
But where was he?
I don't know where he was, but he said something.
I don't even know.
But you ran in and said a word about Spitzer.
Bill Clinton has not said a word about Spitzer.
Now, Hillary has.
She said a word.
Saddened.
She is saddened.
By the way, one more comment.
Just learned something here about the Reverend Jeremiah Wright, the pastor to Barack Obama.
Barack Obama's book, The Audacity of Hope, that title was taken from a sermon written by Pastor Wright.
At some point, he's going to have to answer some questions about this.
He's getting away with leading two lives here.
And the longer of the two lives is the one associated with this pastor in this church.
And when he decided he wanted to run for president, what, about a year and a half ago, that's the new life that he gets.
And it's a life immune from any of his past.
He comes forth as an empty vessel, saying empty things really well.
And people are swooning and fainting.
I don't even think that's happening anymore, though, is it?
They'll have to gin that back up, but they'll do it.
All right.
The Clintons.
Ungrateful.
Just there's a conference call with reporters yesterday.
The New York Observer's Jason Horowitz was talking to Hillary's communications director, Howard Wolfson.
And he asked Wolfson a question about me.
Now, his question's all wrong.
I never took credit for what happened in Mississippi.
And I did not urge Democrat or Republicans to cross over in Mississippi to vote for Hillary.
I'm being credited with it because a lot of Republicans, more Republicans than normal, did cross over and vote for Hillary.
And that might have been residual from the week before when the strategery was actively urged on this program for Republicans to vote for Hillary in Ohio and Texas.
And I said even after the Mississippi results came in the next day and Wednesday, I didn't take credit for this.
I disavow any credit for what happened in Mississippi.
We wanted Obama to win.
We want Obama to win everything until we get to Pennsylvania and then we get back in gear.
But remember for Pennsylvania, if you want to cross over there, you Republicans, you got to register by 24th of March If you want to do it legally.
And we want Hillary to win Pennsylvania.
And anyways, you know what the strategy has been.
You know the Limbaugh effect.
Operation rushed the vote to create chaos.
So here's this exchange, keeping in mind that the reporter here, Jason Horowitz, gets the premise in Mississippi wrong.
Rush Limbaugh was saying today that he thinks that it was because a lot of Republicans in Mississippi were voting for Senator Clinton because they want her to be the nominee.
Do you think that that has any role in it?
Absolutely not.
I understand that that might be his spin or the spin of others.
Look, there's a gallup poll that just came out that had Senator Obama and Senator Clinton both equally running ahead of Senator McCain by two points.
I think the notion is laughable that people are going to vote for anyone for reasons other than the fact that they believe that they are going to be the best president regardless of party.
I just think that that doesn't hold water.
I think it is an effort by the other camp and others to explain away our recent success with independents and Republicans.
See, they're ungrateful.
I knew they'd never thank me.
And I wasn't expecting them to thank me.
In fact, I was expecting to be dissed.
They wouldn't be the Clintons if they weren't dissing me and threatening me, like Hillary did recently.
Be careful what you wish for, Rush.
Hi, coward in the corner.
Chris Matthews isn't buying it, though.
Chris Matthews says, don't doubt the limbaugh effect.
Is Rush Limbaugh's master plan working?
You bet it is.
He's almost hoping that Republicans will vote for Senator Clinton to keep her around the bloody up Barack Obama.
The strategy could be working.
Even though Clinton lost last night in Mississippi, the Republicans indeed showed her some love down there, according to our NBC exit polling.
What percentage of Clinton's overall vote in Mississippi came from Republicans last night?
24% of the Clinton vote was from Republicans.
That's almost one in four.
24% of Clinton's vote in Mississippi came from Republicans crossing over the vote in the Democratic primary, apparently according to the wishes of himself, Rush Limbaugh.
I'm sure it warms his megawatt heart.
That is Chris Matthews.
That was on hardball last night on DNC TV.
Let's go back to February 25th on this program.
This is what I said about women and a Democrat primary election.
What prediction did I make to you last week that's already starting to come true?
I've given you one instance of it last week, and that is that women, I don't care if they're Democrat women, feminist women, liberal women, when all said and done, if Hillary loses this thing, are going to be fit to be tied.
They are going to be fit to be tied that men in this country forsake a brilliant, committed, experienced woman for a rookie guy.
And then they're going to blame white guys for being sexist instead of racist.
In fact, we could almost have a new category here, the angry white woman.
Actually, we've got a new category that was given us earlier by Lorraine X. Quintessential angry feminist Democrat white woman is what they are.
Notice I didn't say angry white woman.
No, no, no, because Republican women really don't have a dog in this fight, she said.
So it's quintessential, angry, feminist, Democrat, white woman.
Women.
Okay, so made that prediction.
I just heard it.
Here on Hardball last night again, the guest is the independent women's voice president, Michelle Bernard.
Matthews says, why do people in the Clinton camp and why do people generally take offense at what Geraldine Ferraro said?
He is not an affirmative action candidate.
He is highly qualified.
He's captured the imagination of everyone in this nation, and she seems to really be denigrating him and kind of saying, you know what?
Realize your place.
It's almost as if we're beginning to see the evolution of the angry white female or the angry Democratic white female in this election.
I predicted the angry white woman, February 25th, predicted.
Now, Michelle Bernard, I know Michelle.
And she's Jamaican.
She's American, but she's her parents in Jamaica.
And she's sharp and she's conservative.
But, friends, I know what I'm talking about here.
Let's go to the phones.
JC in Kokomo, Indiana.
Nice to have you on the EIB network, sir.
Hello.
Thank you.
Hello, Mr. Limbaugh.
This could be fun because I also have a hearing issue.
But I got to tell you that I nearly got physically ill listening to this pastor preach.
I personally was very offended.
And more than that, I was embarrassed as a Christian.
I am really surprised the Church of Christ leadership on an international basis or something like that would allow a pastor.
This church is not part of the Church of Christ.
This is an independent standalone.
This is the Trinity United Trinity United Church of Christ.
But I don't think this church has anything to do with the United Churches of Christ across the world.
Well, I'm a preacher's kid, and growing up and all through my adult life, I have been taught that to love thy neighbor, forgiveness, if preachers are given this leadership position, it will be judged more harshly.
To me, I just saw a reverse Aryan nation.
What you're looking at here, you know, this guy's church is really nothing more than a vessel for him to practice his hate-mongering politics.
It really, that's what's offensive.
But this guy was pure hate.
He's a lunatic racist.
He's angry, and he's couching this as so-called sermons from the pulpit.
You know, he'll mention Jesus and the Romans and throw it in there and give it some sort of religious context.
But this guy's preaching hate.
He's inspiring hate.
I mean, to me, there's no wonder Michelle Obama thinks of the country the way she thinks of it.
If this is where they've been going to church for 20 years, I don't know how long she's been going to church that long, but at this place, but she's obviously heard enough to hate the country like this guy does.
Another prominent Democrat weighing in on the concept of a dream team, that would be David Broder, columnist at the Washington Post.
He has a piece out today called the Dream Ticket Fantasy.
He basically says, look, if Hillary does end up as Obama's VP and they lose, she's finished.
Democrats don't treat losers well.
Actually, he's wrong about that.
Losers vault to the top.
Losing is a resume enhancement.
Look at Jimmy Carter, maybe the worst president of our lifetimes.
He is at the, he sits in the skybox at the convention.
They parade him out there.
Nobel Peace Prize out there building houses, hammering nails and promoting disharmony in the world aimed at the United States.
That's how he won his Nobel Peace Prize.
And if he says, Broder says, look, if the dream ticket won, if Obama Hillary wins, I mean, she can't have a presidential shot till she's 68 years old.
So he doesn't think it is going to happen.
Sean in Indianapolis, I'm glad you waited, sir.
You're next on the EIB network.
Hello.
Rush, how are you, sir?
Good, thank you.
We don't always agree, Rush, but I've been listening to you for years now.
Thank you.
I think you have to listen to different points of views to be a well-rounded person.
I don't consider myself left or right.
I'm just in the middle here.
The subject that I it's it's a mess that's happening with the Democrats, but it's utterly predictable because you've got to.
Wait, wait, wait.
I want to make you're in the middle.
I'm in the middle.
You're not like a moderate?
I would say, Rush, I'm liberal about some things.
I'm conservative about other things.
Right, right.
Yeah, okay.
You're a good moderate.
Yeah, yeah, I believe in gun rights, and I'm against gay marriage, but I'm also African American, so there's certain liberal views I have also.
Well, give me an example of the liberal view.
Just a couple to balance it out here, isn't your money?
Yeah, because you gave us two conservative views.
To be fair here, you've got to give us two liberal views.
Oh, gosh.
You know, I would say I'm with some aspects of affirmative action, but not others.
I think that just because of the roles that we have in this country as far as minority and majority, there needs to be some kind of check and balance as far as making sure that.
Yeah, I know.
I totally understand.
At times I like the sun being out, and other times I don't.
Exactly, exactly.
But the point of my call is on this whole Democratic, this racist undertone.
Well, it's not really an undertone.
It's actually blowing up all over the place right now.
I don't know why this is such a big shock to most of Americans if they inform themselves because up to the late 1930s, most blacks were Republican.
And the whole thing with it is that you're starting to see that they're okay with you as long as you know your place.
And now that things are going well with Obama, you're seeing a lot of the beliefs from the feminist movement coming full steam ahead and running into something they did not anticipate, which is, strangely, black voters supporting a black candidate for president.
Who could have seen that happening?
What in the hell did they think was going to happen?
Exactly.
Exactly.
And the whole thing with it is that Hillary's main argument against Obama, and I haven't declared who I'm going with in this race.
Well, I wouldn't expect you to.
But her main argument is that she has experience, but she's ran her campaign as if she was an incumbent.
No, no, she's run it as if she's an incompetent.
Well, totally.
Really?
I mean, this whole party, this is a bunch out there, Sean, that wants to run your health care.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, they can't even run their own business.
This is a woman who touts her experience ready on day one.
This is a fly-by-the-seat of her pants or broom campaign.
It's stunning to watch this.
Because everybody has always had the impression that the Democrats are masterful, that they are organized and they're forward-thinking and they're three and four steps ahead of us.
And they're not.
This whole campaign, all aspects of it, they are finally having to show the world who they really are.
Well, I would say also, like, again, this racial aspect of it.
Mr. Blackwell in Ohio, Clarence Thomas, they've all taken a lot of heat from black leaders on the left.
And a lot of despicable things said about them, Uncle Tom's, a lot of horrible things.
So there are things in this party entrenched in this party that this race, no pun intended, is bringing out.
They're saying it's a race of historical proportion, and unfortunately, the history of their ideals are running right into each other.
And that's what's happening right now in front of us.
So it's kind of sad to see it, but it has to happen.
No, it's not.
It has to happen.
It's not sad to see at all.
This has been a long time coming.
See, Tom, Sean, there are people like us, people like me, on our side of the aisle here.
We know who these people are.
We've known it for decades.
The media knows who they are, but they always get covered up.
They always get excuses made for them.
Now everybody has a chance to see it.
And that's why I want this to continue through the convention because the convention is when most of the country is going to really start paying attention.
Although I think more people are paying attention now than usually do at this time during a campaign season.
But it's time for people to find out that the real racism lives in the Democrat Party, that the real sexism lives in the Democrat Party.
It's time to see that there's no such thing as the unity in the Democrat Party ever.
They are a disparate coalition of different groups that have one or two unifying principles: high taxes, big government.
But big labor has got its own agenda.
The teachers' union has its own agenda.
The feminists have their own agenda.
The civil rights coalitions have their own agenda, and they're all vying for power within the Democrat Party.
And, you know, Mrs. and Mrs. Clinton think the party is theirs, and they're all for affirmative action, except when it's starting to happen to them.
And I'll tell you something, Rush, too.
I think what's going to happen as far as black voters, you're going to see it fractionalized.
You're going to see probably the Democratic Party go largely with Hispanic voters and your feminist voters.
And you'll probably see blacks move more towards the middle, maybe even further to the right.
I'll tell you what I think.
I'll give you a more concrete prediction.
If this stuff keeps up the way it is, I think you're if let's two scenarios.
Obama gets a nomination, I don't care who else is on the ticket, then blacks will vote in even larger numbers for the Democrat Party.
Rather than being 92%, it'll be 95%.
Right.
Hispanics will not.
The Democrat Party has pit Hispanics and African Americans against each other.
Absolutely.
Ever since that Hispanic population became larger than the African-American population, they have a competition to be number one minority in the Democratic Party.
Hispanics, and Hillary Clinton's playing up that division.
She's doing everything.
So the Hispanics either won't vote or they'll vote for McCain.
Right.
If Hillary gets a nomination, if she somehow blows up the convention, they have riots and whatever, and they can't find Obama the day after the convention, and she's a nominee, then you're going to have blacks in larger-than-ever numbers staying at home.
Yeah.
Some of them, I think, 10% might cross over and vote for McCain.
Yeah.
So that's going to totally change.
And Hispanics will vote for McCain in larger numbers than they would vote for the Democrats, particularly Obama.
Well, and too, Rush, there's a problem with a lot of the logic.
There's a lot of illogic going on with this.
Ferraro, she had every right to make the comment that she made.
I think PC is killing us, but she has a right to say what she wanted to say.
The only thing about it is that Hillary's main Trump card for experience is being the first lady underneath her husband.
Beside, don't, we're not allowed to put Hillary on the bottom anymore.
Yeah.
Beside her husband.
Oh, beside her husband.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's right.
So basically, she has a top.
Yeah, beside on top.
Jeff, put her on top.
You can't put her on the bottom.
Don't even think about it, actually.
That's all I got, sir.
There's nice talk.
Wait a minute.
Sean, before you go, what kind of water heater do you use?
Oh, gosh.
You know, this thing's been giving us problems.
I think we use a you got a tank, right?
I don't care about a brand name.
I'm just talking about the kind.
You got a big tank.
Yeah, I got a big tank, got a big tank.
What kind of problems are you having with it?
Well, the thing is kind of built on this platform here, and this platform's giving us a couple of problems.
We're in a condo here.
Oh, no, a condo water heater.
I've been there.
I've been there, yeah.
Yeah.
And does it, when you turn it on, you get hot water when you want it?
Yeah, absolutely.
You do?
Oh, it's too hot.
Yeah.
Doesn't take a while for the hot water to get there?
Well, I mean, I haven't really noticed anything.
I mean, it's not new, so I'm sure it could be better.
I'm sure, yeah.
Well, you ought to think about it.
Are you ever going to you?
You have a.
Do you own the condo?
Yes.
You do?
Yes.
Is the water heater yours or is it part of the building?
It is mine.
It is mine.
All right.
Well, sounds like this thing's on its last legs or like this platform's on its last legs, one of the two.
I wouldn't blame it on the platform.
I would blame it on the heater.
And I'm sure that if you're living in Indianapolis and so forth, very bad winter up there, you want to save money.
Energy costs are rising.
Think about this, Sean.
A Renai tankless water heater.
It heats only the water that you demand.
It doesn't have this big tank full of hot water that you're never going to use that's constantly running to keep it hot.
You get one of these tankless water heaters from Renai, and you will not waste energy nor hot water.
And you'll never run out of hot water with a Renai tankless water.
I don't care how many guests, how many showers, how many loads of laundry are going on at once.
You will not ever run out of hot water.
Now, as a moderate, you may want to run out of hot water now and then, but you won't if you have a Renai tankless water heater.
You can calculate how much money you'll save at a website, foreverhotwater.com.
Go in there, fill it all out.
It's very simple, and you'll find out how much you can save.
But really, the thing is cool.
It does not store hot water.
It's there when you want it, and it's always there when you want it.
Foreverhotwater.com.
The Renaissance tankless water heater.
Go get one, Sean.
Have you been listening as you watch the Democrat presidential campaign?
Have you noticed, ladies and gentlemen, that neither Hillary nor Obama are mentioning Iraq anymore?
Very.
Maybe in a debate it might come.
We got to go.
It's not.
And I told you it wouldn't be a campaign issue.
You remember this?
Last fall, I told you, I told the Democrats it's not going to be an issue.
Traditional issues are going to start mattering.
The economy, the future of the country, this sort of thing.
From thepolitico.com today, American public support for the military effort in Iraq has reached a high point unseen since the summer of 2006, almost two years ago.
This, they say, is a development that promises to reshape the political landscape.
Hey, psit, Politico, it was reshaped last fall when I said Iraq wasn't going to be an issue.
According to late February polling conducted by the Pew Research Center for the people and the press, sounds like a communist organs to poll for the people and the press.
The People's Democratic Republic of Davis, Kelly, you know it's a socialist commune.
According to polling by Pew, 53% of Americans now believe the U.S. will succeed in achieving its goals in Iraq.
That figure up from 42% in September 2007.
So that's up 11 points.
That's why they're not talking about it.
The American people have done a 180.
This is due to Petraeus.
It is due to our military.
And it is due to George W. Bush.
Drive-bys are not happy about this.
The Associated Press.
Listen to this story.
How does this even become a story?
Fewer people.
I'm going to read this the way this guy was mouthing it when he wrote it.
Fewer people know how many troops have died in the war in Iraq, even though we've done nothing but tell them.
We've told them we've counted every dead body.
We've counted the injury.
Damn it.
And more and more people have no idea.
Screw this and screw you.
That's the AP reporter as he's reporting and typing the story.
Only 28% correctly said that 4,000 Americans have died in the war, according to a survey by the nonpartisan Pew Research Center.
Exit polls of voters in presidential primaries and many national surveys have shown the economy has to place the war in recent weeks as the public's choice is the nation's top problem.
Predicted that, told you.
They're so mad.
They are so mad.
They are froggy.
You don't read them.
You're not paying attention to the death toll.
That's what they based their entire effort to kill the war and get defeat.
And you didn't listen because you didn't care.
Because you had your whole thing, and this is in perspective.
Ah, folks, it's hard for me to contain my euphoria and my glee today.
Back to the phones.
Abe in Seattle.
You're next, sir.
Thank you for waiting.
Abe.
Abe, drop off.
There's another.
He's not responding.
I assume our phones are still working.
This is Glenn.
I'm sorry, Glenn in Effingham, Illinois.
You're next.
We'll try you.
Rush.
Yes.
Hi, I've got a quick story you might appreciate before I get to my point.
Yeah, sure.
Back in 1994, I was a young paratrooper at Fort Bragg, and we were boarding a C-5 on Green Ramp.
Pope Air Force Base at Fort Bragg are connected.
Yes, yes, I've been there.
Okay, and that's right.
You made a trip out there.
Sergeant Major Ivanov.
Okay, yeah.
Yeah, I remember him.
Yeah, who could forget him?
He's a soldier.
He's definitely a trooper.
Absolutely.
But I'm boarding the C-5.
F-16 hits a C-130.
Just barrels down in, kills 23 of us, and 100 of us end up in the hospital.
Womack Army Hospital is there on Fort Bragg.
Wait a second.
I've got a bit of a minute.
You've got...
94. 94.
Was this an air show?
No, well, I was boarding for a training jump.
We were just going to go out.
We were on Green Ramp, and we were heading out to Sicily, drop zone.
And at the time, Clinton was in office, and General Powell, well, also, I was an airborne paratrooper, but I was also an MP.
And there wasn't anything really hot going on.
So we went to Womack Army Hospitals where I was not injured.
But as an MP, I had to do the traffic control point, you know, to let people in.
Okay, I've got 45 seconds.
Okay.
Excuse me.
Can you do it in that time?
I can try.
General Powell came.
Everything was great.
