Time Text
Ha.
You.
We are back, Rush Limbaugh in charge of the fastest three hours in media, known as the Rush Limbaugh program, which meets and surpasses all audience expectations on a daily basis.
Coming to you from the heavily fortified bunker, known as the EIB's Southern Command.
And if you want to call the program at telephone numbers 800 282-2882, the email address L Rushbo at EIBNet.com.
If you're just joining us, we uh concluded a previous hour with audio sound bites of Al Gore.
Sickeningly just stupid comments from Al Gore endorsing Obama last night in Mich.
In fact, just to give you for grab grab Soundbite 11.
Um this this will give you flavor for the for the whole thing.
It's just I I just I I just marvel at at the notion that the best and brightest minds in this country somehow exist on the left and are typified by thinking like this.
If you care about a clean environment, if you want a government that protects you instead of special interests, you know that elections matter.
If you care about food safety, if you like a T on your BLT, you know that elections matter.
If you bought poison lead-filled toys from China or adulterated medicine made in China, if you bought tainted pet food made in China, you know that elections matter.
After the last eight years, even our dogs and cats have learned that elections matter.
Okay, so there you have it.
That's the best and the brightest the Democrat Party has to offer endorsing Al Gore.
Now, what was the media reaction to this?
Well, it was predictable and worse.
Last night, Campbell filled in for uh Anderson Cooper on CNN, and this is what she reported.
Tonight, everybody, he blew the roof off the joint.
Al Gore, one of the last big name Democrats getting behind Barack Obama in a big way, making a speech that could have won him the White House if he'd been making this kind of speech eight years ago.
She's a news reporter, she's an anchor.
She's married to a Republican.
Do you know who her husband is?
Have you ever seen his guy Dan Senor?
He was the spokesman for the Green Roof for Paul Bremer over in Iraq, and he's now on TV as a Republican strategist.
If you saw him, you'd know him when you uh when you saw him.
Not that that matters.
I'm just giving you background information.
Would have won him the White House if he'd been making this kind of speech eight years ago.
It it continues.
It was James Carville who suggested it.
You know, to expand the role, the traditional role of vice president, and to make the issues that he cares most passionately about center stage for him and let him take those issues and run with it.
Not gonna happen, Campbell.
Do I sound like I want it just too badly here, David?
It's a good story.
Oh, don't give me this good story business.
You're a liberal Democrat, Campbell, and you want Gore in charge of the environment and Obama administration.
Do I sound like I want it just too badly here, David?
She's talking to David Rodham Gurgen there, who then said this.
I do think there is a job for him, but not a formal role, and that is he could be the uh environmental czar on an informal basis.
He could be the person who renegotiates a Kyoto treaty, which expires during the first term of the next president.
If he could if he were willing to put himself forward and be anointed in effect during the campaign, I do think that would help the Obama campaign a lot.
He could represent the United States if you you, in effect, said Bill Clinton is going to help me in the Middle East, and Al Gore is gonna help us deliver a climate change uh agreement with China and India.
That would be a huge contribution to the next administration and would really get a lot of environmentally uh sensitive people very excited.
Now, now now wait a minute.
Look at I didn't I just didn't fall off turnip truck here.
Aside from the obvious uh in the the fallacies here that Gore could somehow make China do the right thing, and that Clinton could somehow do for the Middle East Again, what he did for it back in the 90s.
Aside from I thought Obama was the Messiah that could do all this on his own.
We keep reading that he needs heavyweights in foreign policy.
Why?
I thought Obama had the ability to do all he was he's the Messiah, ladies and gentlemen.
I mean, Barack Obama with the sheer force of his personality and his good vibes and his messiah-like character.
Why he can go to Ahmedini Zad and all these other people.
He can assure them that we mean them no harm, and he can go talk to the most evil mean people in the world, and they're going to turn around and they're going to all become like the Maharishi start doing mantras and having all these uh transcendental meditation periods in the afternoon.
Hunky dory is but now David Rodham Gurgen says he needs Gore to shore up his environmental uh credentials.
He needs Clinton working in the Middle East.
Somebody needs to get to David Ron Gurgen and say, sir, you are undermining the whole premise of the Messiah's campaign, and that is change.
Moving forward, the future.
Bring back Gore and Clinton.
Does anybody think if Obama has the power to decide this?
And I frankly, when I look at some of these people that the Obama campaign hiring to vet his vice presidents, and this story that we had earlier about uh Richard Danzig, who he uh is is hiring to be an advisor, national security.
I mean, he's getting all these hacks from previous administrations.
That's not at all uh it doesn't fit with what Obama is projecting about his own campaign.
Change, new, unique, never been done before.
This some somebody somebody shoved him out there to be the front man to put all these other liberal Democrat Party hacks from Richard Holbrook to Danzig to Clinton to Gore back in the administration, back in power.
Obama's almost like a figurehead here.
This is how I interpret this.
If if David Rodham Gergen is willing to go on CNN last night and totally undermine the premise of the Obama campaign, it just tells me that Obama's the front man.
I mean, yeah, he could benefit greatly by having Bill Clinton to the Middle East.
Of course, Clinton really brought peace to the Middle East, didn't he?
And Gore could really talk to the Chinese about the Kyoto.
It was Clinton who didn't even push the Kyoto Protocol in the United States or Clinton Gore administration who threw the Kyoto Protocol down a toilet for crying out loud, Mr. Gergen.
But we're not through.
We're not through sharing with you audio wizardry from past Democrat stars.
From a Senator Barack Obama conference call.
Senator John Kerry, who served in Vietnam, said this.
John McCain is Washington's biggest supporter for the worst foreign policy decision of our generation.
And he's failed to learn the lessons of 9-11.
We're paying for that failure today, and he is the candidate of the Iraq war mindset.
A mindset that completely misunderstands and dangerously underestimates the threats of the 21st century.
So another Dingleberry, another absolute embarrassing loser Democrat, launched and vaunted here to premier status in the Messiah's campaign.
On CNN, we're now staffing the Clinton administration.
Campbell Brown and David Gurgan is okay, we're gonna staff this administration, and in the process they're telling us they know that Obama's not running his own show.
Then they put Kerry out there, we're for change.
We're the Obama campaigner, we're for change, so we're gonna go back with our most recent loser, John Kerry, the haughty John Kerry who served to Vietnam to go out there and totally mischaracterize the policy of the war on terror.
So you heard what Kerry just said.
McCain's biggest supporter, Washington's biggest supporter for the worst foreign policy decision of our generation.
He's failed to learn the lessons in 9-11.
We're paying for that failure today.
He's the candidate for the Iraq war mindset.
That completely misunderstands and dangerously underestimates the threats of the 21st century.
Let's go back to meet the press with Tim Russert, John Kerry, who served in Vietnam, was a guest.
Tim Russard said the Republicans, Vice President Cheney included, have pointed out to a comment you made during a Democrat debate, which they think undercuts your support of the war on terrorism.
Quote, the war on terror is occasionally military, but it's primarily an intelligence and law enforcement operation that requires cooperation around the world, unquote.
You don't believe the war on terror is primarily a military operation?
No, not a law enforcement.
Primarily.
Not primarily.
You do not.
Not primarily.
Tim, Iraq had nothing to do with Al Qaeda.
Well, Iraq had nothing to do with Al Qaeda.
The war on terror is not a military operation.
This to me sounds exactly like what our old buddy Barack Obama is saying.
Because Obama's out there, he's saying we need to go back to prosecuting the war on terror like we did when we prosecuted the first World Trade Center bombing.
Well, it sounds to me like Obama is echoing John Kerry.
So Obama, according to David Gurgan needs to go out and get Gore to run his environmental department, his guru, needs to go out and get Clinton to handle the Middle East, and now needs to have Kerry somewhat involved in dealing with the war on terror.
What all this adds up to is that we're being told right to our faces that Obama doesn't have what it takes to run all this on his.
He's just a front man, folks.
Trust me on this.
They've got him out there.
He is the vessel and the vehicle.
Notice how they've set this up.
Because of his race, because of his middle name, you can't attack him.
Can't talk about his wife.
Can't talk about his preacher.
Can't talk about his buddies that blew up the Pentagon.
Can't talk about these quick change, fraudulent embezzlers like Tony Rescoe that are his buddies.
You can't talk about his race.
Can't talk about his middle name.
Can't call him a liberal.
So they've set it up so because of his skin color, you can't criticize him.
Republicans have dutifully fallen right in line with that.
We're not going to be critical of Obama.
So we can't criticize him.
So he's out there, gets away with speeches that say nothing.
Attitudinous speeches about the future and all this change.
And in the meantime, CNN has the guests on that are going to staff his administration.
And we find out it's the usual Democrat Party hacks from Holbrook to Clinton to Gore to Kerry or people similar.
No change.
Nothing unique.
And a candidate who is a fraud.
Back.
I have had this story since last Friday.
I think last Friday.
June 14th.
I don't have a calendar right in front of me.
But I've been waiting to get audio of this before using it.
And we have it.
McCain was having a town hall meeting somewhere.
A virtual town hall.
Whatever that is.
I don't even know where this was.
I just have the story.
Is it a virtual town hall?
I guess it's on the internet or something.
He's on TV and he's taking phone call questions.
Virtual town hall questions.
So a guy gets a question of McCain.
A questioner said that he had been educated at Princeton and Harvard.
That he made more than $300,000 a year.
And then the questioner said, how can I be proud of my country?
Now I'm looking at the faces of Dawn and Brian to see if they get this.
Do you get this?
Do you get it?
Tell me.
Do you get it?
Tell me.
You don't.
You don't.
You don't get it.
Neither did McCain.
This was a question from a McCain supporter.
The McCain supporter was throwing McCain a very low hanging softball.
This was almost tee ball.
The questioner almost brought the ball and put it up on the tee for McCain to hit.
This was a question.
He was simply echoing Michelle Obama.
She went to Princeton.
Her husband went to Harvard.
She only now is proud of her country.
This was a question for McCain to knock out of the park.
He blew this in flying colors.
Now, some are speculating, well, maybe Senator McCain knew that it was a hanging curve all or just a T ball question, and maybe he didn't.
And and maybe folks.
Trust me, he didn't get this.
Here is McCain is on the phone during his virtual town hall.
And I guess he had to repeat the questions that he was asked.
And this is what he told the audience about that question.
The question is from a gentleman who was educated both at Princeton and at Harvard.
And the simple question was how can he be proud of his country?
I'll admit to you.
That's tough.
That is tough in some respects.
So Senator McCain on Saturday, rather than realizing that he had just been given an opportunity to blow Michelle My Bell and Barack Obama out of the water for the embarrassing statement that she'd made about only now being proud of her country, instead pandered to the guy who asked the questions.
It's tough.
I'll admit it some.
It's tough to be proud of your country sometimes.
That we're talking straight talk express, pure politician 101.
Pure politician.
One oh one.
He said he went further.
He said, I'll admit to you it's tough.
It's tough in some respects.
McCain said America needed to be more humble and more inclusive.
And he said one of the ways to be proud of the country was to look at our history and the sacrifices that U.S. troops have made abroad.
So be more humble and more inclusive.
No, Snertley, I know, I know people don't like me hearing like hearing me.
Rattle the papers.
It's just them doing that instead of speaking.
In fact, let's go to the phones.
Uh let's uh Central Centralia was Centralia Washington, Bob High.
Nice to have you on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hi, it's a joy for me, Russ.
Uh, this is uh a first time.
Thank you, sir.
And uh I just want to tell you how much I support and agree with you totally about uh Gore's endorsement of uh Obama.
I just think it's uh go suckle of the past payer of the Clinton's era.
He did it, as you said, with uh uh you know Perry and uh I mean Carrie and Edwards, and uh it's just I think O one would never would have happened if they'd have done their job or their business in '93.
No, it it's that's that's true.
But you know what this represents.
We we have to remember now to put this within the context of the Obama campaign.
The Obama campaign.
Mike, gr grab the PSA that we play, even if I don't have time to play it all in.
The the great thing that we do about making fun of Obama's change and his idiot supporters and what they say, and let me know when you have that ready to go.
Because is okay, this this whole this this whole campaign is about change.
It's about change, and all they want to do, all these Democrat hacks want to go back to the same old power brokers that had power during the Clinton years.
That's all this is, and Obama is their vehicle to get him there.
Listen, this is how we parody this, but parody, funny comedy works because it has truth in it.
So you see, folks, there's no change.
He's just the vehicle to reinstall all these old hacks.
They've been out of power for a while and want it back.
And back to the phones we go.
El Rushbow serving humanity simply by being here.
Lilburn, Georgia, Nancy High, nice to have you on the EIB network.
It's a pleasure to speak with you finally, and I want to thank you, thank you, thank you for pointing out the extreme differences in the coverage and in the reaction to the two floodings which have been in the media the last number of years.
Number one, the New Orleans flooding following Katrina and the current flooding in Missouri and Iowa.
The differences are so different.
I want to know where is a breathless Heraldo rescuing people.
Where is Lewis Barricane stating that George Bush blew up the levees in Iowa?
where have these people gone to?
Where have they disappeared to?
You're the only one who has had the nerve to discuss this at all.
Thank you so very much.
Well, you're more than willing.
I also I'd like to know where uh Shepard Smith of Fox News is.
Exactly.
Demanding to know where the government is to get these people out.
Right.
In New Orleans, they could not evacuate the ninth ward after the president called and begged the mayor of New Orleans, a Democrat Ray Nagan, and the Democratic governor of New Orleans to evacuate New Orleans, they did not do that.
I've heard on the news that whole cities and towns have been evacuated in Iowa and Missouri.
They have moved everyone out orderly.
Let's not leave out Wisconsin, you know the exactly.
Exactly.
I knew there was a third one.
Thank you.
Um and the difference is it was indeed a tragedy that the lower ninth ward in New Orleans was flooded, and all of those people lost their property and possessions.
But the impact on the economy for that is going to be very minor compared to the impact on the American economy of the loss of the land and the crops, which are being lost today.
That impact is just now being realized.
Uh, Yeah, far more than that.
Look, I'm glad you uh I'm glad you raised a point out there, uh, Nancy about the the the tragedy.
The the what happened in Katrina with the human tragedy is no less uh important than what happened here in Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois, and so forth.
We're talking about media coverage.
We're talking about the Democrat Party.
Uh we we are talking about the mindset of the left uh in this country, and it was on full display in the post Katrina aftermath.
Uh you you could even say, hey, look, you know, there was there was there was devastation over Mississippi, but we didn't see Shepard Smith or Geraldo or anybody else, uh Anderson Cooper, all these people that won their little pullitzers or whatever they get, we didn't see them spending any time over in Mississippi either.
And we all know why.
We all know why.
This was an excellent opportunity to bash Republicans and conservatives under the time-honored and old hat cliché that...
That they are racists and that they are sexists and that they are bigots and that they are homophobes.
And when a flood happens to minorities, Republicans don't care, Bush doesn't care.
I mean, Bush might have even steered the hurricane right in there.
Did Bush wanted half the residents of New Orleans to leave so that the Republicans could win the state in future elections, it went on and on.
And I just I reached my boiling point listening to Al Gore bring this up, uh, especially now with what's going on in the uh in the heartland of the country.
Chris in Provo Utah, you're next.
And welcome to the program.
Hey Russ, how are you doing today?
Just fine, sir.
Um I wanted to talk, you know, I agree one hundred percent with everything that you've been uh talking about about with uh with respect to Obama Obama and the and the danger that he poses for conservatives.
But I'm not really one hundred percent convinced that the bigger danger doesn't lie with McCain.
Not not so much that I support Obama in in favor of McCain, but but uh well let me let me explain.
You we have you know, the Republican establishment, not the base, but the establishment, they're they're they're moving left.
They're moving towards the left, and this is just another symptom of it, the fact that they've that they've pushed McCain on us.
Um they're moving in this direction because they have the conservative vote, they know they have the conservative vote.
So in order to keep their jobs in order to consolidate their power, they're wanting to attract voters, more moderate, more more less voters.
And my fear is that if McCain wins this election, um McCain will win and the establishment will know forever that they do not need to appeal to conservatives any longer.
Conservatives will be left out in the lurch, they know that they will have the conservative vote, they know the conservatives will vote with them no matter what.
And we'll never we'll never get a conservative elected into office.
Oh, yes, we will.
This is the limbaugh ecro system.
This is w one Of my one of my warnings to people has been that if the Republicans win, here's the other half of it.
In addition to what you said, if things hold as they do now, and by the way, still many, many, many weeks to go, this this is subject to change because a lot of time for all kinds of wacko crazy things to happen.
But if things hold as they're projected to now, the Democrats are going to end up with a much bigger majority in both the House and the Senate.
So no matter who the president is, the Democrats can be setting the agenda.
If we elect McCain, we're already electing a guy who likes working with Democrats anyway.
So that's that's the second prong of the problem.
But what you said is exactly right.
The establishment country club blue blood Rockefeller types, after McCain win, will come to all the conservatives, and they've hated us.
Not hated us.
They've been embarrassed of us.
They've been embarrassed of conservatives in the party because a lot of us are from the South, and a lot of us pro-laugh.
You know, a lot of us have pick-up trucks and guns, and it makes it makes it tough to go to Republican convention while all the hicks showing up at the same time want to get into our parties.
You know, we want to go to these black top things, we want to have refined, sophisticated parties with canopies and chablis and so forth, and here comes, here come the clampets, uh, showing up uh looking at the cement pond at the place we're having the party.
That's how they look.
These country club blue blood republicans, they do not like it.
So they would be more than happy to be able to sweep the victory and say to the conservatives, see, see, this party doesn't need conservatism to become a winning, broad-based coalition majority party, and they will be dead wrong because they will have attracted people who are not Republicans to vote for them.
And the reason that these people will be attracted is because we've got a candidate that's more likable as a liberal than their candidate is.
So what's going to happen is that the Republican Party is going to lose big in future elections, unless there is a conservative vice presidential running mate for Senator McCain.
Um it is it is a problem.
But the here, this is why I say, Chris, that this election is not is a referendum on Obama.
This is going to be an up or down on Obama.
It will be.
For the vast majority of people voting here.
And they're going to say, do I want this country led by Obama?
And as we're now beginning to learn all of these old-time, time-honored dinosaur party hacks.
Do we really want the Clinton administration back in power?
Do we want somebody from Clinton administration running NSA?
Do we want Jamie Gorellic back at the Justice Department, created the wall that prevented us, our intelligence agencies from sharing information on terrorist activities overseas?
Do we really want to bring friends of Al Gore back?
And do we really because that's what this is shaping up to be.
And do we really want Obama with his friends like Jeremia Wright and the whole the whole circus that he runs around with?
These are these are going to be the questions that people vote on.
The women that are upset that Hillary didn't get it, they're still going to be upset.
So it's going to be a referendum on Obama, pure and pure and simple.
That's and you know, the sad thing is McCain's got so many opportunities here to show up the base.
Like he took a step today by going all in for oil exploration and drilling on the U.S. continental shelf.
There are many, many opportunities Senator McCain has here to really draw a distinction between himself and Obama.
And he doesn't even have to, you know, cross the aisle and shake the hand of these conservatives that he doesn't like.
The next thing if he would j if he would just peel off on this global warming carbon footprint thing, that would be a huge thing to, you know, hang tough on low taxes, making the Bush tax cuts permanent, hang to stop talking about punishing the oil executive, all that sort of stuff.
It wouldn't take much, and he could really, really draw some distinctions here that would not cause him to lose any independence that he so desperately wants.
A brief timeout.
We'll be back and continue in a second.
I just got a note from one of my favorite reporters, Bill Salmon.
Bill Salmon writes for the Washington Examiner, formerly the Washington Times occasionally appears as a Fox All-Star on Britt Hume's roundtable discussion toward the end of his six o'clock show.
And he just got off a conference Call with uh Obama foreign policy specialists.
And by the way, this represents, ladies and gentlemen, yet another illustration of how Obama is not about change.
The two foreign policy advisors on the conference call were John Kerry, who served in Vietnam, and Richard Clark, the national security advisor in the Clinton administration held over by the Bush administration.
And here's the question that was asked of John Kerry and Richard Clark.
The McCain camp said that if Osama bin Laden were captured and detained at Guantanamo Bay.
Obama would want to give him habeas corpus rights.
They said that this morning.
I'm asking you two gentlemen, would he?
In other words, should Osama bin Laden have the same rights that were granted by the Supreme Court last week to other terrorism suspects?
John Kerry, who served in Vietnam, took the first stab at this.
He said, first of all, the Supreme Court of the United States has ruled that they have those rights.
This is not Obama.
This is the Supreme Court of the United States.
If John McCain were president, he would have to give them those rights.
This is a phony argument.
It's typical of what the Republican playbook is, which is say anything no matter what the other side has said.
Just say it enough people may believe it.
Unless you folks write the truth and write it boldly and write it clearly.
And then Richard Clark chimed in.
Richard Clark said, if Osama bin Laden were brought back, the Supreme Court ruling holds on the right of habeas corpus.
But fifth, terrorists have routinely in the past, prior to this administration, been successfully captured around the world and prosecuted, including in the United States, with the exception of one participant, the World Trade Center attack of ninety-three.
They were all found, they were all brought back to the United States.
They were all given their rights.
That is not true.
We haven't got the people who did the Kovar Towers.
We haven't got the people who did the USS Cole.
This is not true.
But anyway, Richard Clark's saying this.
And they're all locked up in Supermax in Colorado.
It can be done and it has been done.
So what do we conclude from this?
It's very simple what we conclude.
Obama's foreign policy advisors said today that bin Laden, if captured, should be allowed to appeal his case to U.S. civilian courts.
That's change.
That's the Clinton administration.
We went through this earlier in the program.
That did not stop terrorism.
That's a police action.
You only deal with these people after they've hit you.
After they've blown up your buildings, after they've killed your population.
After they've blown up your barracks, after they've blown up your Navy ship, that's when you deal with them, and you d that's gonna stop terrorism.
We put the blind shake in prison.
We put a bunch of his accomplices in prison after the World Trade Center bombing of 1993, and then terrorism continued to happen, and the World Trade Center itself blew up with the airplanes hit it uh in 9-11.
The best in the brightest, the backbone of America, John Kerry, Richard Clark.
Change.
And we can believe in Lucy in Pittsburgh.
Hi.
I'm glad to have you here.
Oh, hi.
I can't believe I'm actually talking to you, Megadeth.
Thank you.
I've been listening to you since I was thirteen and now I'm 33.
Well, you're you're a rush baby.
Yes, yes, I am.
And I just wanted to say thank you for everything and for helping raise me right.
And I'd always tell my parents when I get I graduated in education, and I'd tell them that when I get sick and tired of the liberal stuff I'd hear in education classes, I'd say, well, Russell didn't go to college.
And they'd say you have to go to college.
So anyway, I I I I appreciate that.
What part of Pittsburgh do you live in?
Um actually we are new residents.
Oh, really?
Um Austin, Texas, my husband and I did in February.
He got a job up here with Dell Computers thing we moved it here.
Oh, cool.
So what what part of Pittsburgh?
What a part of the Ben Avon, it's called Ben Avon.
It's part of Pittsburgh, I guess.
Yes, yes, I used to live there.
That's why that's why I'm not Ben Haven, but I I lived in uh a bunch of places there.
Uh Rosalind Farms uh the last place.
But uh anyway, do you like it?
Yes, yes, I do.
It's really it's great to have seasons.
I really like the snow and the fall and so far.
And it has the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Exactly.
Exactly.
Even though I'm a Dallas Cowboy fan, but even better.
Even better.
You're in You're right in the enemy's backyard.
Yes, yes.
Well, I wanted to tell you, I'll get to a point.
Um, but I'm just too excited to talk to you anyway.
Um my dad is an Army Ranger, Green Beret.
He was twenty-three years as an officer in the military in the army.
And um now he retired and now he's working for the government still as um in the counterterrorism group.
And uh he and I were talking last week.
I was upset over the Supreme Court's decision, and I called him and he said that what the soldiers are gonna do now is the soldiers are just gonna take no prisoners.
You know, they're getting a shoot 'em.
They're gonna kill 'em.
Kill the terrorists instead of taking prisoners.
They'll just kill him.
Uh yeah, on the battle.
Yeah, they gotta be very careful about that, because we got a lot of spies in the military who want to impugn the military by accusing people there of committing murder.
So I mean, if it's in the if if it's in if it's in the heat of battle, sure.
Your life or theirs, you wipe them out.
Uh but but by murder, I mean cold blood.
You don't do that.
Uh you gotta you gotta get them in the act.
But I understand.
I mean, this is you know, the people that put on the uniform and the Kevlar to defend and protect the constitution of this of this country.
Uh not they don't want to be called to court to testify how they capture these people.
They don't want to be called and be grilled by the terrorist lawyer sitting before a Clinton-appointed federal judge on how his actions on the battlefield may have violated the suspect's rights.
It could get so far and go so far out of whack that these people, these soldiers will have to mirandize these it's it's absurd.
It is.
And when did prisoners of war when did they get rights?
You know, they don't have rights.
They're not they just well, they've got the Geneva Conventions, but these people now we're talking about don't apply to the G V uh don't don't they don't apply because they don't wear uniforms and so forth.
So no, you're th they th where do they get their rights from five liberals wearing black robes in a Supreme Court building in Washington DC.
That's where they got rights.
In other words, from the um United States judicial system.
Thanks for the call back after Well that wraps up another exciting excursion into broadcast excellence.
Yes, in response to several emails, I am gonna be appearing uh it's on the phone, not on camera.
I'm not going to a TV studio for this.
With the Laura Ingram, the first couple segments uh on her five PM show, Eastern Times Afternoon, a Fox News Channel.
It's telephone interview.
My favorite kind.
Export Selection
