Ha.
How are you?
Well, we're gonna have a hurricane out there.
Hurricane Bertha.
But darn it, it's curving, it's gonna curve out to sea.
It's not gonna hit and destroy anything.
Drive-by media is devastated.
Wrong, snurdly.
What bottom track?
So I'm not watching C. I'm not watching CNN.
I mean it's CNN.
I they just took it up.
Well, thanks for telling me in time so I can miss it.
There is I've looked at the track, I looked at the track at 11 o'clock, I've looked at the models.
This thing's gonna this thing's gonna zip out there's gonna get nowhere near us.
CNN said it is Oh, come on, then they must they're two days behind.
Anyway, MSNBC just got it right.
What does that tell you?
Anyway, greetings and welcome back.
Rush Rush Limbo, the EIB Network and the Limbaugh Institute for adv I've got to change channel.
I just cannot stand to have CNN on it.
Excuse me.
This is where's the previous channel?
There we go.
Okay.
800 282-2882, if you'd like to be on the program.
The email address rush at EIBNet.com.
I'm sorry, L Rushbo.
L Rushbow at EIB net.com.
Global warming stack today, folks.
Try this.
This is from uh what is this?
This looks like it's uh oh, it's ABC.
It's actually Australian channel, but it's I think it's ABC.
Um Plasma LCDs blamed for accelerating global warming.
Why do these people have any credibility left whatsoever?
Just shared with you the story of the gigantic wasteful carbon footprint that the Democrats are gonna make putting on their convention in Denver.
All of these fires in California, a carbon footprint that dwarfs whatever automobiles out there are emitting.
And now plasma and LCD televisions are going to accelerate global warming, a gas used in the making of flat screen TVs, nitrogen trifluoride is being blamed for damaging the atmosphere and accelerating global warming.
Almost half the televisions sold uh around the globe so far this year have been plasma or LCDs.
This boom could be coming at a huge environmental cost.
This gas, uh widely used in the manufacture of flat screen TVs, is estimated to be 17,000 times as powerful as carbon dioxide.
Uh ironically, uh NF3, which is nitrous and nitrogen trifluoride, is not covered by the Kyoto Protocol, as it was only produced in tiny amounts when the treaty was signed in 1997.
ABC News.
It is just ridiculous.
I also saw this.
This is from the uh UK Daily Mail.
I wish Well we will link to this at Rushlimbaugh.com.
It was uh it was posted on their website on July 3rd.
An architect has come up with an innovative answer to rising sea levels.
A city that floats around the world, a self-contained lily pad city will be home to around 50,000 climate refugees from the worst hit areas, including London.
Latest research predicts that sea levels could rise by nearly three feet by the year 2100, putting many islands in the Pacific Ocean in danger.
The lilypad cities would be powered by renewable energy sources.
This dramatic rise of close to one meter would threaten huge areas of low-lying coastal land as well as major cities such as London, New York, and Tokyo, and they have two different artists' renderings here of these lily pad cities.
Now they look pretty cool, but this whole it's it's an absolute joke.
Climate Refugees.
People that live near current shorelines would have to move to these islands, which would not be anchored.
They would float around the world wherever the ocean's currents take them.
With renewable energy powering them.
I can't describe it to Lillipad.
It does.
It looks like something out of a sci-fi movie, obviously.
And they're they're huge in the in the artist rendering.
I can't I mean the thing is they're already doing this in Dubai.
I mean, they're building islands, but they're putting homes on the islands.
But these are floating lily pad cities to house climate change refugees.
Can you do what?
No, can't get out of paying taxes if you live on one of these.
I imagine a tax rate to get on one of these things.
The admission price is going to be steep alone.
This is only going to be the elites.
Do you think they care about people that uh get wiped out uh near the uh near the shoreline?
This is just for the elites.
No homeless people on this.
Well, you we just see it.
I I it's it's hard to describe.
It's it's just ridiculous.
No, I'm not gonna buy one.
They're never ever going to be needed is the point.
This is an absolute joke.
They're never going to be needed.
We've got a bunch of literally insane people working on a hoax of a problem that is never going to materialize, getting people all worked up, coming up with some of the dumbest, stupidest ideas.
Now, if they wanted to do this as a lifestyle option, you can live on your own island, which is essentially a a cruise ship that floats around the globe, but you don't know where it's going because it's totally dependent on where the currents take it.
You can end up in Antarctic in this thing.
If there still is one.
And here's a story from uh, what is this?
Um The Daily Mail, a UK Daily Mail again.
The headline says it all, research.
Wind power pricier and emits more CO2 than thought.
It's an interesting look here at the uh overall effects of the use of wind power, but the bottom line, I've read the story, so you don't have to.
The bottom line is because of the variability of wind, the gas turbines used to supplement a wind plan will result in an overall net increase in CO2 emissions than if the power grid was planned as solely relying on gas turbines with no wind power contribution.
In other words, wind is variable, meaning some days there ain't going to be any.
Some days there's not going to be enough, even though there's a little bit.
Some days it's not going to come for the right direction.
And so on the days where wind is powering all the stuff that you need electricity and other things for, when the wind's not there, they have standby gas turbines.
And the gas turbines are going to make more pollution than if they just went with a uh relying on gas turbines permanently for it's it's just like this whole ethanol thing, just like this, this whole mess with food prices, everything the left touches, every idea they have just blows up all the so-called unintended consequences.
But they never get credit for the failures.
All they say is examine our intentions because our intentions are of big hearts.
We're good people.
I want to go back to audio soundbite number eight.
Republican National Committee ad.
I want you to put yourself in a position of a Republican member of Congress running for re-election.
You've got it tough this year because the template is the Democrats are going to pick up huge majorities in both houses.
Now, I know there's polling data to support that.
But can I ask you to also think about something else before we play the ad.
How many of you have bought into that template that it's over?
I mean, the Democrats are going to get at least seven seats in the Senate, and maybe twenty to forty more in the House.
How many of you believe that?
Why does anybody believe this?
This is a template that's been created.
Because winning is what Democrats do.
It's the normal thing.
When Democrats win, that's the essence of normalcy.
When Republicans win, panic city, something's wrong.
But now we're back to normal.
Democrats are going to win everything, everything's hunky-dory, and nobody's challenging this.
Even though it's just polling data, and even though nobody knows what's going to happen in these elections.
The experts think they have an idea because of the polling data and the retirements where they're coming from, uh, who has which party has more seats up for re-election, more seats to save and so forth.
But nobody really knows how this is going to show.
The idea that the Democrats just walk away with all this this year is uh just a template.
It's become an action line.
It's just a matter of time now waiting for it to happen.
Frankly, I don't buy it.
But even so, imagine you are a Republican member of Congress, and you are running for re-election, and in your district, you're at home on a break, and you're watching the TV with your family, and this ad comes on.
Record gas prices, a climate in crisis.
John McCain says solve it now.
With a balance plan, alternative energy, conservation, suspending the gas tax, and more production here at home.
He's pushing his own party to face climate change.
But Barack Obama for conservation, but he just says no to lower gas taxes.
No to nuclear, no to more production, no new solutions.
Barack Obama, just the party line.
All right.
The stuff on Obama's pretty good, but here you are, you're a Republican.
You're running for re-election.
And this ad basically says that this guy McCain, your presidential candidate, is trying to get you to move in the right direction.
John McCain's trying to push you.
You're a member of the Republican Party, trying to push you to get your mind right on all this stuff.
Which, you know, endorsing the whole notion of man-made climate change is an issue that Democrats own, and we should let them have it.
And we should use it to draw a distinction between ourselves with them.
Another audio sound bite here before we go to the break, just a little funny one.
This is from uh C SPAN 2 in depth.
It was yesterday, host Pedro Echevaria interviewing political essayist Kata Pullett.
He asked her, Do you think feminism is more accepted today than it was in the past?
The word feminism has been, I think, successfully demonized by the media.
So that for example, the word feminazy, which was, I believe, a coinage of Rush Limbaugh, that distinguished sociologist and political theorist.
Thank you.
I remember the first time I heard that word.
I could not believe it.
And yet that has become a standard uh verbal, you know, locution that you hear all the time.
Used it like it's a word.
So I think the word people are very many people are very afraid of the word.
Well, that's accurate word.
The reason it's become a word, it has become a word.
It's in the dictionary now.
Uh and it's because it's accurate.
And I am a noted sociologist and political theorist.
I thank her for pointing that out.
Last Thursday on C-SPAN's Washington Journal, we put together a montage of unidentified C-SPAN callers about uh the extension of my partnership agreement with Clear Channel.
I couldn't be happier.
I've listened to Rush for 20 years.
He I feel like he's a friend.
He deserves it.
Rush is entertaining.
He's fun, he's healthy.
Rush brings out the best of our country, what the United States really stands for.
But it means to be an American, and it's so important for people to understand that the United States of America is the greatest country in the world.
We like him, and we're glad he's on.
We're sick of the constant negativity from the so-called mainstream media.
And I am so glad that Rush is here to stay.
I should take this occasion to uh thank all of you who've sent me similar messages in the email.
It just thousands and thousands and thousands of them since uh since last whatever it was, Wednesday, third, yeah, last Wednesday when this uh whole thing became public.
It's been very, very gratifying.
Uh, one aspect of the uh new arrangement was discussed last Thursday on Cudlow and Company, Larry Cudlow's show on CNBC.
He had uh University of Virginia's political scientist, Larry Sabateau and Jonah Goldberg from the National Review discussing it.
Rush Limbaugh, you saw the headlines today.
400 million dollar contract out to what 2016.
He's still the king of radio.
He's still an influential guy, isn't he, Larry?
Well, sure, with his audience.
Uh, but obviously that's uh compared to the national electorate, that's a that's a small piece of the action.
How many people does he reach, Joan?
I thought he reaches uh 100 million or something.
Oh I I don't know the numbers off the top of my head, but I I seem to recall it's something like a 10 to 20 million people a week, something like that.
I mean it's a it's a big big bunch of people.
You can do a lot of damage with that, Larry Saboteau.
Yeah, but you're gonna have 130 million people vote.
All right.
So yeah, you can do some damage or you can encourage that segment to get out and vote, but it's a small piece of the action.
Hey Mr. Saboteau, what's the audience size of an average classroom of yours?
What's the uh what's the audience size of the average cable show that you attend and appear on anyway a brief timeout here folks and more of your phone calls coming.
I know you can't take these snarky little things personally.
You just you just can't do it.
Because no it's eating them up snartly.
Say quick question for the University of Virginia's Larry Saboteau.
Dr. Sabato, why bother writing books when only a few thousand people maybe a hundred thousand people are going to read them why bother teaching in a classroom when so very few people even over a course of years are going to show up there.
Why bother wasting your time Dr. Saboteau on cable television programs that reach a paltry number of people don't it's such such a a waste of your time to engage in media that has such small audiences and now back to the phones.
Bert Jacksonville Florida welcome to the EIB network hello hello hello can you hear me?
Yeah all right I call number one because I'm one of the screaming liberals you're always talking about personally I think uh big oil should be nice I don't believe you I don't believe you Bert because you're not screaming I can do that if you want no no no I like it this way better.
Okay.
Number one of the things that that case over in Iran said which is what the only thing I've ever agreed with him with is that there's no problem with oil supplies.
Wait, wait, wait, wait I didn't hear who was the nutcase that said something Alberjan whatever his name is in Iran who uh oh the president of Iran Ahmedini's not okay yeah uh there really isn't a supply uh a problem with supply of oil the problem is in America yeah number one and this is the truth you can look it up why am I not surprised the problem is America just leave it at that that'll cover everything you
believe if you just leave it at that we can save a lot of time here like Dr. Sabato could by not writing any more books or not going on cable TV the problem is America.
Well number one if you let me finish the Well I I know what you're gonna say but but go ahead and say in the interests of uh fairness and uh interest okay number one oil is purchased in five year contracts is that not correct uh not necessarily I mean some no some companies do and some don't Southwest Airlines did it they got locked in low prices that's why they're profitable some of the other airlines did not do it that way.
I'm talking about big oil when they buy oil from foreign do you know how much of the world's oil supply is nationalized Bert by that I mean owned by governments quite a bit.
Well give me the number Venezuela give me the number I don't know the number of try ninety five percent Bert that's how small the U.S. oil industry is 95% of all oil in the world is nationalized owned by the nations where it's in the ground now what is this what are you gonna do now to big oil?
What what's big how how in the world can big oil whatever they do impact the fact that 95% of oil is nationalized.
Okay please let me finish this why should I waste my time go ahead okay oil purchased five big oil and five year contract so the oil we pay we're supposed to paying a hundred and sixty a hundred and forty five dollars a barrel for it.
They purchased five years ago for fifteen dollars a barrel.
This is law.
It is uh when they sign the address.
I get it.
I get it.
So they bought oil five years ago at fifteen dollars a barrel.
Mm-hmm.
So they ought to be selling gasoline to us at ten cents a gallon.
Okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Got it.
Talent on loan from uh God.
We're here kicking off a brand new week of broadcast excellence.
This next is somewhat interesting.
It it is it is pretty interesting.
It was from uh last Thursday on DNC TV, the Scarborough show, early in the morning.
Mika Bzhinski, daughter of Zbigniev Brzezinski.
Uh was the is she's a co-host, and she had two strategists on.
She had uh Liz Chatterson, a Democrat strategist, and Brad Blakeman, a Republican strategist.
To talk about me.
So Mika Bzhinski said to Liz Chatterson, Liz, do you believe Rush Limbaugh had an impact on the Democrat primary?
Do you think he will continue to have, if you think he did, an impact in the fall?
Mika, I actually do think he had a little bit of an impact on the primary in certain states, particularly Texas, where he asked his Republican listeners to go out and vote in the Democratic primary for Hillary Clinton.
That was the nominee he thought would be, I think, easier to beat in the fall.
Uh I don't know if it had a huge impact, but I think it probably had a little bit of an impact.
I mean, he's got a huge following.
You gotta give it to him.
And in terms of the fall, I you know, his his listeners are not Barack Obama voters for the most part.
But does he have a huge following that could be impacted by what he says in terms of voting for McCain, not voting for McCain?
Absolutely, he could play a huge role.
All right, so that was Liz Chatterson, a Democrat strategist last Thursday on DNC TV suggesting uh that I have a major impact.
Contrary to Larry Sabateau in the previous unbite, but listen now to Brad Blakeman.
Mika Bzhinski says Brad Limbaugh's introduced a segment in which he uses a designated Obama criticizer.
A man that he calls, quote, certified black enough to criticize Obama, and that's in quotes.
With all the racial sensitivities out there, Brad, does McCain run the risk of a backlash if Rush helps him too much, pushes the envelope too far?
Well, if Rush becomes a lightning ride, certainly it's not helpful to the McCain campaign.
On the other hand, I think Rush Limbaugh wants to win.
His he has much uh better fodder in the fall if John McCain is the president, and I believe we'll still have uh a House and the Senate that's in Democratic control.
So it's in his best interest, selfishly that uh John McCain be the president.
So the Republican strategist sounds like a Democrat blogger in one sense, and that is I'm only in this for my own self-interest.
That I don't really care about the country.
I'm just in this for to make this show the best thing it can be.
The Democrat strategists seem to have a correct me if I'm wrong on this, but just as I listen to it, the Democrat strategists seem to have a better handle on what goes on here than the Republican strategist.
Would you agree with that?
I I could just be me.
Could just be me.
Here's Tom in Philadelphia.
Tom, great to have you on the EIB network.
Hello.
I want to congratulate you on your uh new contract.
Well, thank you, sir, very much.
Right.
Uh you have you have current um accomplished a great feat.
I have to hand it to you.
You have turned baloney into $400 million.
$400 million.
Don't get caught up in that figure, Tom.
It'll make you sick.
Listen, you are now America's highest paid baloney merchant.
Highest paid bologna merchant.
Right.
You ought to be proud of that, Rush.
I'm proud of the channel.
Tom, let me tell you, I'm so proud of my achievements that you couldn't you couldn't understand.
Yeah, but yeah, I mean it ain't too many people could do something like that.
Well, that's true.
That's that's that's that's that's absolutely right.
You're a great purveyor of baloney.
I got to I gotta hand it to you.
Tell me, what's what's the baloney that I purvey, Tom?
You name it.
No, no, you name it because you're the one that you're you're the one that claims an unfortunate.
So as far as global warming goes.
I mean, you global warming is a good thing.
What's your credentials on a hoax, Tom?
What's your credentials?
You are smarter.
Uh what's what are my credentials?
Yeah.
Who has to talk about global warming?
Well, who has to have credentials?
Why?
That's a very elitist attitude.
If you had a pain in the throat, what do you go to?
A shoemaker or even the doctor.
Wait a second.
Mike Tom, now you're smarter than this.
Don't don't make my decision to spend some time on you, show bad judgment on my part.
All right.
I mean you step up here.
Credentials?
Credentials.
I have an uh I have an official science climate advisor who is a scientist.
And he's doing uh uh uh now, Tom, I also have my own mind, and I can read and I can think, and I can spot baloney, and the baloney is in the global warming hoax.
It is worse than baloney, Tom.
It is excrement.
It is excrement.
No, no, Tom, there is no man-made global warming.
There is and they can't prove it at all.
They cannot prove it, Tom.
You're sitting around and you're buying in the growth of government tax increases.
Wait a minute, let me ask you something.
Yeah.
If you keep pouring this gas, what is it, greenhouse gases into the year, billions of tons every year, day after day, month after month.
And you say it has no effect on the atmosphere?
That's damn right, it has no effect on the atmosphere.
What?
It doesn't.
Where there look at the amount of CO2 and other pollutants from nature from a volcano from these fires.
We can't compete with that, Tom.
Do you know how many people doesn't explode every day?
But when it does, it cools the earth for years, Tom, because the suit flies all around the planet.
Mount Pinatubo.
Let me ask you a question.
How many on every day, every hour today?
Tom, Tom, Tom, Tom.
How many how many you're missing my point?
You're missing my point.
The global warming hoax makes us out, the inhabitants of this planet to be the greatest threats to it.
There's plenty of scientists to say it isn't.
There are plenty of scientists on the financial take, Tom.
That's what you want to talk about credentials?
There are plenty of scientists on the financial take, and if they don't spread this hoax, they don't have any money.
They can't earn money on their own like I do, Tom.
They have to rely on a bunch of people.
There are no experts.
There is no science.
There are too many people that disagree here.
You've got as many scientists agree as disagree.
There is no consensus, Tom, because science cannot have a consensus.
Tom, let me ask you one question.
Let me one question.
Since you're not going to listen to me.
You don't want to listen to logic.
You don't want to listen to reason.
All you want to do is insult.
Tell me this.
With all the CO2, how many parts per million?
Molecule, parts per million, uh out of one hundred thousand in the atmosphere are CO2.
I have no idea.
Thirty-two.
Well, thirty-two.
Thirty-two.
All I know is you keep throwing that crap in the air, and sooner or later something's gonna happen.
That's all I say.
Well, it's common sense.
It's not crap.
You remember that taste.
What it is is common sense logic.
Jason Denora, Pennsylvania many years ago.
This all this stuff, all this pollution was in the air, and all these people died.
You remember that?
Oh, we're not talking about pollution that kills people.
I'm not denying any of that occurs.
I'm not denying that we pollute.
I'm not delaying what I'm denying, Tom, is that we're destroying the planet and warming it up.
We don't have the power to do that, Tom.
And how long have we been doing this?
We uh hundred years, a two hundred years, the most, a hundred and fifty years.
How many doing what?
Throwing all this stuff up in the air.
When it it's been far warmer in the past before we started doing all this on this.
When it's cold, you say, hey.
That shows you it's a hoax.
But you never say nothing when it's a hundred.
Thank you, Mr. This is what to the woman who called and said you need to get on TV and do 30 second spots to reach the people that don't listen to you.
This is who you want to reach.
These blockheads who have I mean, we're we're not talking about We don't even have a rudimentary rudimentary second grade understanding of things in this guy from Philadelphia.
It is impossible.
This guy is not to be brought into the fold.
He is to be defeated.
And people like him.
This is what we don't understand.
I don't it's it's it I gave it my best shot.
But he wasn't even interested.
All he wanted to do was insult me.
Baloney this baloney that.
My credentials don't have any cre see that's elitist attitude.
I can't have any credentials on this because I'm not a global warming scientist.
So this is what we're up against.
Uh this is these are this and and by the way, I will guarantee you, coming from Philadelphia, this guy's a rock rib lifelong democrat.
And all global warming is to him is a partisan political issue, and he wants to believe the notion that other people are killing other people and destroying the planet uh and destroying America and so forth.
I mean, who are his credential leaders?
Al Gore?
Yeah, right.
Who's next?
Uh looks like Tony with an I from uh fountain, Virginia.
Hi, Tony, great that you waited.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Hi, Russ.
I'm I'm calling about your caller Faith that called a little while ago, and I'm so glad to listen to all the little sound bites you had because I want to talk to her directly and say to her that um that I think she's just desperate.
I think that she's looking to you because we are desperate out here.
And let me give you an example why I feel her desperation and I need you to help me, but I'm only saying that in a figurative way.
I'm a professional master's level professional worker, my husband's professional.
We have three children, we make a wonderful income, and the Democrats tell me that that I make too much and I need to give to everybody else.
And I'm watching as my food bill and my gas bill are eating away at my income.
We put ourselves through college, we did everything on our own, we never asked for help, we paid back our student loans, and now I'm living paycheck to paycheck.
And so if if anyone like you could get out there and with us and say, hey, you know, even on TV, help us you guys are being lied to, lied to.
Um, that's where I I think she's feeling desperate.
I don't think she was a plant.
I think she's really just feeling desperate, like I am as a professional worker.
I'm being scared.
I'm scared that I'm gonna lose everything I have in this that I've worked for because of a man like Barack Obama, who, by the way, is half white and nobody talks about that.
It's only his blackness that everyone's talking about.
Oh, yes, they are.
Some Democrats are talking about it that he's not authentic, he doesn't have slave blood, the Southern Christian leadership conference, but they're doing it selfishly so they can continue to promote the race in it.
Well, let me confide something in you.
I feel the same thing.
I feel the same thing.
I feel like they're gonna take everything I have away from me.
I feel like that's what Democrats want to do to anybody who is their target or their enemy.
And that would mean anybody who has enough money to be independent from any type of government involvement in their lives.
We're all I'm I I think they're gonna target, I'm afraid we're gonna try to take away the radio show with a fra with a fairness.
I'm very scared.
I have three little children, and and I'm trying to show them what we've accomplished because we did it on our own.
I worked my butt off through school, and my parents couldn't help me out, and I did it.
And and now I might have to go to socialized medicine.
I mean, what the heck I I'm just so here's an example of why I'm desperate.
My phone.
Let me tell you what, let me make a prediction to you, by the way, before you finish that.
And this not trying to add to your desperation.
But at some point with his brain cancer, Senator Kennedy is going to pass away.
And I just want to prepare you.
Shortly after that happens, the Democrat Party will advance officially, socialized, nationalized medicine, and they'll call it the Ted Kennedy, whatever it is bill.
Correct.
And they will use the the the sentiment and love that the Democrat Party has for Ted Kennedy to get that passed.
And if we have some weak need Republicans who will not oppose the bill because Tenet Senator Kennedy's name is on it.
Uh well, it may not happen, but I'm I'm I I I think it I think it will not out of it's not a possibility.
I think it's the exact kind of thing that they'll try.
Well, it's not at a possibility for sure.
Can I ask you a quick question?
Yeah, fire away.
Okay.
Okay, my father who listens to you forever, and he's the one who got me into both you and Sean Hannity.
He was we were at a weekend, Fourth of July celebration at my brother's house and he confided to me and said you need to put money in your house cash get it out of the bank put it in your house because if Barack wins you don't know if you're gonna be if the banks are going to fall is that should I listen to that?
I mean I'm nervous.
Did I take my there is there's so much panic out there.
I don't even think that has to do with Obama.
I I think most of this has to do with the media.
I think a lot of this doom I've I've got a stack of media stuff here today I didn't bother getting into it's just one story after another nothing but doom and you're gonna lose your house.
The banks are going to foreclose on everybody and the banks are going to get foreclosed on by the Fed.
Everybody's gonna lose credit.
We've got nothing to look forward to we're we're it just it's it's uh it's it's really a shame because all of these things are not traumatic.
I mean they're they're not apocalyptic or cra catastrophic but your life situation the circ circumstance you describe uh is real and there are and and there are reasons for it and you are desperate because you think it can get even worse with the wrong people running the show.
That's right that's right.
And I don't rely on my government to to help me survive and there are men the Democrats are making everyone believe that that we should rely on you.
Well they don't realize then that that becomes worse.
I mean I I could lose they don't care about you they don't care about you.
You've just described yourself as somebody outside their control.
They don't care about you.
They're gonna get you in their control if they can by taking enough of your liberty away and taxing you enough to where you're gonna become dependent on them.
That's what they care about.
But how do I stop that then?
How do how can I sit how do I that's what I feel like faith is saying to you how we're at a loss.
We don't I don't have the power to to tell who am I going to tell my neighbor that?
I mean they you know they don't listen to me.
