I just spent the whole break laughing myself, silly.
I'm sorry I should not have been laughing, but I couldn't control it anymore.
Greetings and welcome back, Rush Limbaugh, and the final hour of Open Line Friday.
Live from the Southern Command in sunny South Florida.
It's open line Friday.
And here's the telephone number, 800-282-2882, the email address L Rushbo at EIB net.com.
President Bush is now addressing the well, he's making remarks.
Thanking the House, praising the House for passing the bailout bill.
And one of the things the president said was that this is now going to enable the banks to start lending money again.
Now they tried this.
I mentioned this to you in Europe.
They tried this mentioned too yesterday, tried this in Europe earlier this week.
Some banks said we need some liquidity, and so the central banking organization over there blew in $150 billion, and the banks did not lend it.
They deposited it.
They invested it, holding it for when times improve.
I will be interested to see if, indeed, the banks start lending money after all of this.
And they keep calling it a $700 billion bailout bill.
We know it's $850 billion because they've added $150 billion in the Senate.
Well, let me tell you why I'm laughing.
I shouldn't be, but I have to tell you why I'm laughing.
During the break of the top of the hour, we had Fox on in Snirley's office.
And you've got Pelosi, Marnie Frank, Jim Clyburn, Steny Hoyer, and some other Democrat.
And they've just got the biggest smiles on their face.
And there's not a Republican to be seen.
And she's taken questions from the press, and they've got the bill in a big blue box, open to the signature page, and they're passing it around, and they're showing each other the past signed version of the bill, and they're just they're just yucking it up like you can't believe.
And I'm I'm saying, you know what?
We we had the sound now, we couldn't hear what they were saying, but I know exactly what we're saying.
We screwed them big time!
October surprise!
Hello!
We screwed them again!
We meaning the Republicans, and there wasn't a Republican anywhere around.
We did it.
We pulled it off October.
They had the biggest smiles on their faces.
I have never seen people smiling so much over the passage of a simple piece of legislation, and they were not smiling because of how tough this was.
They were smiling because of what it is.
They just got themselves totally exonerated from any culpability in this.
No wonder Barney Frank's smiling.
The only thing missing was Chris Dodd.
They should have brought him over from the Senate and showed him the signed bill.
But uh all is not lost, ladies and gentlemen, as the AP headline reads, as economy sags, so do faces and breasts.
And we can't have that.
So uh it's getting serious now.
The economy isn't the only thing it's sagging, so are faces, breasts, and bellies, as would be cosmetic surgery patients, increasingly opt against costly nips and tucks because of tough financial times.
Anecdotal reports and recent unscientific surveys from an industry trade group suggest that many cosmetic surgeons have been seeing a drop-off in costly operations, some by as much as 30% or more.
Diane Lawyer, software company manager in Atlanta, said belt tightening has made her put off getting her eyes done.
A procedure that would cost a few thousand dollars.
I just can't justify it right now.
She's 55, started shopping at a discount grocery.
She rarely drives to save gasoline, and she loaned money to help keep her sister out of foreclosure.
Oh, that reminds me, I had a story of yesterday.
You know, Oprah Winfrey's mother owned some store 156,000.
Now Oprah has how many billion?
Oprah's mother is equivalent to George Byung Young Hussein Obama living in the hut in Kenya on twelve dollars a year.
Obama's rich, doesn't help out his brother.
He says he's a brother's keeper.
Where is Oprah's mom paying this off?
It would be a drop in a bucket.
But Obama's Oprah's mother is fighting this.
And you know what she said?
She said they shouldn't have lent me the money in the first place.
They shouldn't have let me charge all this in the first place.
It's their fault.
They, it's it's it's their fault for make putting me in this situation because they should have never extended to me this kind of crime.
Maybe Oprah's mom's in the bill.
I don't know.
Maybe Oprah's mom is getting bailed out.
Uh fascinating piece here by Brad O'Leary.
Investors Business Daily posted uh yesterday afternoon after the program is entitled Forgotten Foot Soldiers in the War on Success.
The war on success.
That's exactly what the Democrats are waging.
So one of the greatest achievements in life, in the life of an astronomer, is to discover a new planet or solar system.
In the political world, the equivalent is uncovering a new voting block.
When writing my latest book, The Audacity of Deceit, Barack Obama's War on American Values, I discovered a relatively unknown constituency, the 30% of American voters who do not pay federal income taxes.
These Americans are exempt from paying income taxes either because their income levels below the threshold that would require them to pay or their total deductions, leave them with no income tax liability.
So I set out to determine exactly who these people are and what makes them tick.
In conjunction with Zogby America, I conducted a series of carefully orchestrated polls.
Now, for more results than I can write about here, you'll have to buy my book or go to Barack Obamatest.com.
Anyway, first, I found that 60% of likely voters among non-taxpaying Americans favor Obama, whereas only 31% of likely voters among non-taxpaying Americans favor McCain.
In addition, a majority of the 30% of Americans who don't pay federal income taxes agree with Obama's $65 billion plan to institute taxpayer-funded universal health coverage.
I On the other side, a majority of the 70% of Americans who pay federal taxes, i.e., the folks who would have to foot the bill for this boondoggle, are opposed to Obama's health care plan.
A majority of non-taxpayers, 57%, also favor raising the individual income tax rate for those in the highest bracket to 54% from 35%.
A majority of non-taxpayers, 59%, also favor raising Social Security taxes by 4% for any individual or business that makes at least $250,000.
Stick with me on this now.
Non-taxpayers support Obama's plans for increased tax deductions for lower income Americans, along with higher overall tax rates levied against middle and upper income households as well.
And they also want to expand their ranks.
The non-tax-paying Americans want to expand their ranks from 30% of all Americans to 40% of all Americans.
Obama's tax plan with its smorgasboard of deductions and credits aimed at lower income households would do exactly that.
Today, 70% of Americans shoulder the majority of the federal budgetary burden for all Americans.
These Americans, by and large, do most of the risk-taking and innovating that produces the wealth, the jobs, and the products that drive the American economy, not to mention pay the taxes that fund an ever-expanding array of federal welfare programs and handouts.
Obama claims that 95% of Americans would get a tax cut under his tax plan.
Yet only 70% of Americans actually pay federal income taxes.
How does this compute?
Is he going to give more money to non-taxpayers?
The math simply doesn't add up.
You can't give a tax cut to 95% of Americans if only 70% of them pay federal income taxes in the first place.
Now then again, math may not be Obama's strong suit, and judging by his earlier foray into proving education, it isn't a priority.
When Obama worked with unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers for the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, the foundation doled out 160 million dollars to effect education reform in the Chicago school system.
Yet students at Annenberg School showed no improvement over non-Anenberg students.
And this is because Obama heirs in the Annenberg Challenge focus their resources on projects designed to promote an awareness of social justice among students, as well as a general disrespect for authority, as opposed to projects that focused on core subjects like math and science.
Obama's lack of devotion to math aside fails to understand that successful hardworking taxpaying Americans have created the world's number one economy by far.
Even when recession threatened earlier this year, U.S. gross product domestic products still weighed in at an I-popping $13.8 trillion.
Now the point of this, if if Obama and his legions of non-taxpaying supporters are allowed to set America's economic policies and priorities, a wrench will be thrown into the gears of our economic machine.
America will face a new war.
Call it Obama's war on success.
In this war, there will be no winners, only losers, taxpayers and non-taxpayers alike.
And remember how O'Leary started the piece.
The greatest fine, the greatest discovery in the political world is a new voting block.
And the whole his book and his research here is targeted at proving that Obama's big voting block is the 30% plus of Americans who pay no taxes, no income taxes.
These people get polled a lot.
They are played to constantly, and they are all for ever higher taxes on everybody else because it means more for them.
In their own version of Trickle Down.
Quick timeout.
We'll be back.
Your calls coming next.
Folks, it's too late to do anything about this now, but I want to share with you something that's uh that's in the bailout bill.
Michelle Morkin had this back on uh September twenty-eighth.
And I'm sure it survived the bill.
Remember now we we we gave you details on Biden last night, uh promising that bankruptcy laws would allow judges to determine interest rates, principal payments for people under foreclosure or under uh threatened by bankruptcy.
We had Obama call James Clyburn of the Congressional Black Caucus and assure him that this was going to be happening and not to worry about it.
This is one of the things that got the black caucus to get some votes changed today, vote for this thing, but listen to Section 10 of the assistance to homeowners plan in the bailout bill.
It is driven by one of the bill's key stated goals of preserving homeownership.
General, to the extent that the federal property manager holds, owns, or controls mortgages, mortgage max securities, and other assets ecured by the residential real estate, including multifamily housing, federal property managers shall implement a plan that seeks to maximize assistance for homeowners and use its authority to encourage the servicers of the underlying mortgages,
and considering net present value to the taxpayer to take advantage of the Hope for Homeowners program under Section 257 of the National Housing Act or other available programs to minimize foreclosures.
They made some modifications.
The modifications are in the case of a residential mortgage loan, modifications made under paragraph one may include a reduction in interest rates, B reduction of loan principle, Cother similar modifications.
So in the quest to preserve homeownership here, the government will be determining the value of homes directly in the marketplace even before they go into bankruptcy.
Section 110 turns over the real estate market to the federal government.
I want to see this operate in practice.
I want to see you go to your bank, your lending institution and get a get a mortgage, and they tell you, okay, where is this what's uh down payments required?
Here are the points.
This is your principal, and this is your interest every month.
And then and I and then you don't like it.
Well, I I I can't pay that much.
I'm I'm going to the federal housing manager.
And if you happen to be an approved Democrat constituent, when you go to the federal housing manager, the federal housing manager will call the bank and say, What are you doing to this poor Democrat constituent?
Hey, why are you loaning money in a way that he can't pay?
You're going to lower the interest rate, you're going to lower the principal, you're going to reduce the points.
That's what the bill gives them power to do.
Now, if I went in to try to get a mortgage, and I got a bank, give me the deal, and I didn't like the deal.
If I go to the federal housing manager as an unapproved Democrat constituent, they'll go back to the bank and say, raise the principle, increase the interest.
They've got the power to do this.
Affordable housing, Bonnie Plank said.
Affordable housing.
This is uh call it reparations.
Call it two 300 billion dollars worth of um reparation.
Jennifer in Charlotte, North Carolina, you're up.
Great to have you here on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hey, Mr. Wonderful.
I've waited my whole life to talk to you.
Well, thank you so much.
You did a perfect setup a little while ago.
If you'll give me a second, first of all, the purpose of Colin, first thing today, was that why is it anybody from the Republican Party harping on the fact the greatest strength in Sarah is that she's not a Washington insider.
Um who do you expect in a Republican Party on the inside in Washington to start singing her praises because of that?
Well, even last night, I just thought that she could have seized the moment even greater.
That's why I'm voting for her.
I don't trust any of these people in Washington.
I I understand, but the the Republicans look at right the Republicans at as we start the McCain campaign, the McCain campaign are calling the shots here as to what's said by official Republicans.
I like I told you, uh, if I had to write a doctoral thesis explaining the McCain campaign, I would have to give up the pursuit of my doctorate.
I would have to reject the assignment.
I say I will go insane writing this.
So I know I know I'm the answer man.
You are.
But I'm not here.
Well, I the uh remember what I told you, all of you uh at the very beginning of this campaign over a year ago.
The Republican Party, there's a battle within it to take it away from conservatives and evangelicals and the pro-life crowd, the country club blue blood insider, Republicans want control of the party.
Ergo McCain.
Now, they realized too late that that wasn't going to win them anything.
You can't McCain may be able to go out and get some independence and so forth, but they got to have the Republican base.
So here comes Sarah Palin.
But this I'm looking at this, honestly, Jennifer, and I'm seeing parallels to 1976 that are dramatically close.
Dramatically close to 1976.
You have a moderate Republican who, while a nice guy was not able, there was no passion, there was no ability to articulate policy positions.
You had, I mean, Jimmy Carter's Barack Obama is Jimmy Carter.
They're interchangeable.
You're coming off Watergate, coming off Republican scandals, coming off economy that wasn't singing.
And somebody wanted change, and they go with the peanut farmer from this.
We needed to create the misery index, and all this led to the revival of the conservative movement in the Republican Party.
So I want you to hold on because I know you you you had something else to say.
Numbers are in the Sarah Palin show last night, the debate.
Highest rated debate since 1992.
And it wasn't because Joe Biden was in it.
Can we all safely agree to that?
It wasn't because Joe Biden showed up.
The Chia Pet.
Now, this housing business.
Two things.
It could even be worse than my analysis of section 110 that I just shared with you, because I was giving you a scenario of new house purchases.
The approved Democrat constituent, and you know who they are, the various minority groups so forth.
They go in, they get a loan, they don't like it, they call a federal housing manager, federal housing manager calls the banks, hey, buddy, you have um you have misunderstood the the uh the intent and the spirit of our new law here.
Uh effectively uh nationalizing your bank.
Your lending operation.
So this constituent can only afford one third of what you're charging, so rearrange it and make it work.
If you have to give a 50-year mortgage, do it.
Now, the other side of this is the bankruptcy side.
If you're going through bankruptcy, you can go in and go to the federal housing or get the judge, the judge will have the ability to side in your favor and make the lending institution rewrite the loan so that you will not lose it.
So judge says mortgage has to be cut in half, term extended to 30 years, the uh interest rate under prime.
Next case, please.
Now, if this is true, uh-oh, oh no.
God love it.
Dow Jones Industrial Average in negative territory now after the president went out and spoke.
Uh down 33, and that's coming back a little bit down 28.
It was up 250 today.
They were singing along fine in the House voted.
Now, what consider this possibility?
The banks are gonna find out what's in this.
And they got a lot of properties out there that are on the verge of foreclosure.
What do you think they're going to do?
The president's going to sign this bill before he leaves town.
I don't know when it officially goes into effect, date you know, date-wise, but if I've got a bunch of foreclosures out there and I've got and I've I've the pending foreclosures, and I see this piece of legislation giving some federal housing manager office the right to tell me I can't foreclose, what am I gonna do?
I'm gonna dump as many of these things as I can before this bill goes into effect.
Just like if you uh if if if if you know that Obama's gonna raise taxes in 1960, let's say Obama wins, you know he's gonna raise taxes in 1999 and in 2009.
You ask for as much income as you can in 2008 to avoid the new tax rates.
Same principle here.
It's in the bill, folks.
Section 110, it is in the bill.
We have nationalized homeownership here.
The government's going to buy a bunch of mortgages and tell banks how to run other mortgages or to lend them.
This is this is all being done under the guise of needing liquidity so the banks can start loaning money to people and small businesses can borrow to meet payrolls and so forth.
Here's uh Jennifer back in Charlotte, North Carolina.
I I took a long time to answer your question, and I wanted to give you a chance to come back and make the comment that you called to make.
Yeah, well, no, I made the comment.
Now here's my follow-up question.
While I was waiting for you, okay.
Yeah.
I happen to go online.
Is Wikipedia a conservative or neutral or liberal website?
Liberal, and anybody, Anybody can go to Wikipedia and change any entry they want.
Okay.
When I was waiting, you made the comment earlier about Elon College and all that kind of stuff.
I'm from North Carolina, born and raised in North Carolina.
On Wikipedia's site, there is a Democrat under when you typed his name in in Wikipedia.
Under the controversy section, it says that he opposed to increase the oversight of Fanny uh May and Freddie Mack in two thousand and three rush.
Wait, what a minute.
What name are you putting in there?
It's Mel Watts.
W A T T. Mel Watts.
Okay, Melts.
Yes.
So this is the biggest democratic scandal of my lifetime.
And it says that what in two thousand and three, he opposed efforts by the Bush administration.
That's true.
And the congr congressional Republicans to increase regulatory oversight of Danny May and Freddie Mack.
That's true.
So did the whole black caucus did.
So did Barney Frank.
So did Chris Dodd.
That's what we've been talking about for the past two weeks.
They all stood in the way.
They are the ones responsible for this failure.
Right.
So here's my question to you.
If we get, which I believe we will, McCain and Palin in the White House, what good is it going to do us with the stupid if we if the representative in the Senate has the Democratic majority?
It's not going to do us any good.
Well, we may not be faced with that.
The Senate and Congress you know, you gotta understand all is not lost here.
The House and the Senate are in play.
You've got to I keep saying you have to remember because I talk about all of this.
I've talked about it all the past three months, three weeks and three days.
These polls that AP and other people are putting out, trust me on this.
Take a look at them if you can on the website on the internals.
The sampling of Republicans compared to Democrats is abnormally low and not representative.
Here's how it works.
You got the Republican convention.
Your AP.
So you go out and you do a poll to fee to tell the people how the rather the reaction to was the Republican convention.
And you saw it pretty strong.
Palin hot, McCain hot and so forth.
Then, a week or so later, you do the same poll, but you reduce the number of Republicans in the poll.
You increase the number of Democrats, and lo and behold, you can produce a poll that shows a drop in momentum.
I'm telling you, these polling well, some of them, not all, I mean Rasmussen's honest and and uh some of the other, but AP so these people, the ABC News Washington Post, they are cooking these polls to produce results that they want.
Now, as to your question, what do we do with a Democrat majority in the House and Senate if we have McCain?
I I look at I don't want to answer that right now.
I answered that before the primary campaign.
Nobody listened to me.
I I I told you what this was gonna what it was gonna be, but nobody cared.
Nobody listened.
I'm not gonna answer it right now.
I'm gonna answer it later.
I won't have to answer it.
You will see it.
For crying out loud, Jennifer, did you not hear today that he's gonna have Al Gore as an expert on climate change in his administration?
He wouldn't tap Al Gore's.
We're not gonna need to worry about the damn Democrats in the House in the Senate.
We're gonna need to worry about the damn Democrats in the cabinet.
Ah, damn it.
I promised I wasn't gonna say this.
But I said it.
Give me give me mood here.
Here's uh uh Clark Summit, Pennsylvania.
Jim, welcome to Open Line Friday.
Hello, sir.
Hi, Rush.
Thanks for taking the call.
Yes, sir.
I heard something last night.
Um Senator Biden says something that I haven't heard anybody else mention, and I think uh it should be brought up.
He must be.
What's that?
Um I don't have the transcript, but didn't you say something like no one in the Senate is a better friend of Israel than Joe Biden?
Uh don't you think Joel Lieberman would take issue with that statement?
Uh yeah, but that's that's a good point, but that's his that's just Biden being Biden.
I mean, he's nobody's a better friend of Hamas.
I mean, nobody's nobody's a better friend of uh Hugo Chavez.
You know, I mean whatever, whatever his.
I'm looking for the sound bites.
I got a whole bunch of sound bites we haven't gotten to yet.
I was hoping that Governor Palin uh called him on that.
let's see, clean coal and clean coal.
Got a lot of cuts on how he lied on a clean.
He lied his butt off on the clean coal stuff.
A lot of uh and he got wrong totally wrong on the role of the vice presidency.
Uh in fact, let's do that.
Let's start.
I uh what we'll find that uh for you, Jim, uh at least transcript wise.
Number 27, audio sum by 27.
In the debate last night, Gwen Eiffel says, Senator Biden, Vice President Cheney's interpretation of the president, the vice presidency.
Vice President Cheney's been the most dangerous vice president we've had, probably in American history.
The idea he doesn't realize that Article one of the Constitution defines the role of Vice President of the United States.
That's the executive.
He works in the executive branch.
He should understand that.
Everyone should understand that.
Yeah, you don't understand it.
The the role of the vice president spelled out in the Constitution.
He is president of the Senate.
He has an office there.
If he wants to, he can go preside over the Senate every day.
He can't vote unless there's a tie.
Now, what Biden was basically saying is I'm going to be doing nothing.
I'm not going to do diddly squat.
I'll be advising Barack a lot, because Barack doesn't know what he's doing.
So I'll be advising Barack a lot.
But he thinks the only time the vice president can go up to Capitol Hill is to break a vote, break a tie vote, or sit there for the State of the Union speech, because he's basing it on separation of powers.
That's what he meant by vice president's party executive branch, and you've got to stay away from Capitol Hill.
Vice President presides over the Senate every day if he wants.
And Biden doesn't know that.
What else did he say that was squirrely?
Oh, that set-up question toward the end.
What?
Have you changed your mind about something big in the course of your career?
And old Plugs looks at the camera and says, you know, Gwen, I really have.
When I first got here, I thought that all that mattered in the Supreme Court was judicial temperament, moral turpitude.
But I have since come to learn that you've got to get into people's judicial philosophy and their ideology and disqualify them on that basis.
Why, if it weren't for me, we'd have Robert Bork on this court.
If it weren't for me, we and and that's just flat out B.S. Joe Biden arrived in Washington as a card-carrying liberal idea that these guys had to learn about opposing conservatives on the Supreme Court after they get to Washington.
Anyway, I got to take a brief time out here, folks.
We will uh be back right after this.
Don't go away.
L. Rushball, open line Friday.
What McCain or what Biden said in the debate last night was this.
Uh no one in the United States Senate has been a better friend of Israel than Joe Biden.
I would never ever have joined this ticket were I not absolutely sure Obama shared my passion.
Joe, you better hope you guys lose.
Because that one may come back to bite you, Joe.
And the guy wants to sit down with Ahmadinizad.
Without preconditions, and you lied about that, Joe.
You know damn well he wants to sit down with all these guys.
Here's Lou in Reddington, New Jersey.
It's great to have you on Open Line Friday.
Hi.
Hello, Rush.
How are you?
Fine and dandy, sir.
A little little tired, but making it through the day.
Yeah, well, we're we're all getting that way.
I was I was telling you screener.
I'm just uh average guy.
I work on the back of a garbage truck.
I have I'm proud to say I have twin sons uh at the Citadel Military College in South Carolina.
Their future is in the Marine Corps, hopefully, but my wife and I are both struggling to see that this dream is uh seen with them.
And uh uh uh as a street guy, I just what I saw in the McCain debate last week, it was okay.
I'm voting for McCain.
I'm very, very interested in the war.
The economy will probably straighten itself out.
I'm more interested in what's gonna go on in the next five years, because it does include my kids.
But my main thing is with Mr. McCain, this is his time.
This debate is gonna be his and our future.
He's got to look that guy in the eye like she did with with uh Biden last night.
I mean, look him in the eye.
If you look at the debate that he had with Obama, he didn't look at this guy.
He he he's a warrior.
Let's make it a warrior.
And straighten him out and straighten everybody else out, the United States of America, that this is the way to go.
This is the way to go.
With him.
He is going to get us out of this war.
And that's all I got to say, Rush.
Thanks for letting me on.
All right, Lou, I'm glad you call.
I love your patience and passion and so forth.
I really do.
I'm that's not no butts, no butts, no butts, no butts.
Lou, you stay fired up and keep everybody else around you fired up.
I'm just I'm just getting gimme.
I just safe to move on.
Uh Brian Freeland Park, Florida.
Nice to have you on the EIB network.
Hello.
Rush, that's Fruitland Park, Florida.
What is it?
Fruitland?
Yeah, Freoland Park.
Fruitland Freeland, sorry.
No problem.
Listen, uh, this bill that just passed, uh, probably just buried me.
I've been uh working really hard.
I've got a medical condition I've been trying to pay for.
I'm self-employed, and uh, I've been robbing Peter to pay Paul.
And I just uh originally what I was gonna call you with was was that uh my situation is uh when I uh did my loan three years ago, um the i i it it was based off of a credit score through a uh uh a lending guy, not the actual bank.
And all I needed was for the bank, and I'm sure there's a lot of other people out there like me to make an adjustment, not on the principal, but rather the interest.
And to me, I don't understand why the banks don't do that would stop the foreclosures.
Uh I'm having trouble.
You lost me because you you said this was gonna wipe you out.
Well, the the bill will, yeah, because now the bank's gonna look at me uh if I'm you know uh 35 to 40 days behind like I've been running for the last four or five months, always always able to make it but make it late, and now they're gonna look at me and say, hey, you know, uh we need to we need to you know speed this process up and just get rid of him all together.
Oh, oh, you mean before everything goes into into effect.
Um let's wait and see if that happens.
I'm gonna have to find a date certain that this goes into effect.
The president's gonna sign it, but I gotta find the the the the when it when it goes into effect to see if that's gonna be a factor.
Brian, thanks for the phone call.
I appreciate it.
Folks, when I was I went to, as I told you, uh San Antonio, went to a fundraiser for a friend, a member of Congress, House GOP, and there was a lot of people, and I'm shaking everybody's hands.
Which is what happens at these things.
And I'd forgotten to take any hand sanitizer with me.
I'd always catch colds when this happens.
Always.
You can't avoid it shaking all those different hands.
So um I got back on a plane and I wasn't gonna chance it.
I had some hand sanitizer there, but I also got a Zycam swab out.
And uh you do it every four hours, sometimes I do it every two.
I wasn't gonna take a chance.
Some people say, Well, you sound a little stuffed up today.
You have a cold.
No, don't have a cold.
I'm not feeling any ill effects in that, not whatsoever.
I'm just I was a little up late last night and the voice is a little tired.
But this Zycam business is his time is now to stock up if you don't have any in your house.
Seriously.
Uh we're getting into the fall weather cycles here with colder and wet uh wetter weather in certain parts of the country.
And the minute you sense you're getting a cold, grab one of these swabs, both nostrils, plug your nostrils for five seconds after you do it every four hours.
You may still get the cold, but it'll last a lot less time and be a lot less severe.
We'll be back and close it out here in just a second.
I want to remind you before we leave here that the movie American Carol premieres tonight.
Bunch of Hollywood guys sticking their necks out to make a movie, a comedy destroys Michael Moore.
Well worth your time to go see it.
And uh Mark Davis will be here Monday.
I have a fairly important, very important family gathering to attend.
