Shootout at a um Immigration Center in Binghamton, New York.
Hostage negotiators are being sent in by the FBI.
And an evidence response team.
It's called the American Civic Association.
It's an immigration center.
Maybe some fatalities.
Causing quite a ruckus in Binghamton, New York.
Greeting my friends.
Great to be with you.

Live from the Southern Command in sunny South Florida.
It's open line Friday.
Where the views expressed by the hosts, documented to be almost always right, 99% of the time.
Happy to have you along.
Open line Friday when we go to the phones.
You, not me, you get to choose what we talk about.
Anything goes for the most part.
We just, you know what?
We don't do the usual stuff.
Complaining about how the carrot cake recipe didn't work or the phone bill was too high last month, or that sort of stuff.
But you know, you know, whatever you want.
Go for it.
A great opportunity.

Should you feel guilty about having a job?
This seems to me this is the second of these stories that we have done.
I would have to check the archives at my website, uh, rushlimbaug.com, but I think this is the second one.
This appears in the big money selection or section of Slate.com.
Al is a 31-year-old consultant whose fiancee is currently unemployed.
After a tough day at his New York orifice, he gets off the subway one stop early and walks the 15 minutes home just to blow off steam before seeing her.
She asks how my day was when you sit there, you start talking about it, you realize you hate your job that day.
It's hard to combat the idea that yeah, I have a job.
I wasn't part of the unfortunate many.
Can I set this stage for here's a guy going home to his unemployed fiance who's so mad about having a job?
Well, he's so mad about being part of the 91.2% of the people in the country who do have jobs that he feels guilty about it.
So he has to walk the final fifteen minutes home to burn off steam so that he's not in a foul humor when he gets home to uh see the fiance.
Oh, yeah.
The the story I did a few months ago was the guilty survivors who were escaping layoffs.
Layoffs at companies, and then there were people who are not laid off, and the story focused on the guilty, uh people who felt guilty because they weren't laid off.
I mean, I I've seen mind control, but this this is a this is above and beyond the pale.
Unemployment rate, eight and a half percent.
That means 91.5% of eligible Americans are working.
And now there's a full frontal assault to make them feel guilty.
For having a job.
She asks how my day was when you sit there, you start talking about it, you realize you hate your job that day.
It's hard to combat the idea that, yeah, I have a job.
I wasn't part of the unfortunate many.
You feel like you really can't complain, but on the other hand, you feel like you're carrying the stress and the burden of keeping your mouth shut.
You know talking about your day at work will make the other person feel worse about themselves because they clearly have something to offer, but they're just not getting the opportunity.
Sad, sick, and infuriating.
It seems the economic crisis has curtailed the time-honored tradition of vetting about work.
But that self-imposed silence can create can I I need to ask all of you a question.
I'm not you can't all answer it.
But here we have this story at Slate.com, which purports to describe the attitude of a majority or of many millions of people who are working, it just is a burden.
You can't talk about your job anymore because it's just not fair because so many people don't have jobs, and it's just insensitive to do so.
And it's been a time on a tradition to vent about work, but now you can't.
A 28-year-old writer says.
Well, the question is, are you not talking about your job to people who you think don't have one?
Because you're feeling guilty.
You know, I would I would say to this 31-year-old consultant whose fiance is currently unemployed, if it's this bad, if your job, the fact that you have a job is causing you this kind of stress.
If you have to get off one stop early of the subway before you get home to blow off steam, just quit.
Quit the job and go on unemployment and feel better about yourself.
A 28-year-old writer says I'm really careful about complaining to my friends about anything work related because half of them have recently been laid off, so it's particularly sensitive.
If my mother asks me how I'm doing and I complain about an annoying thing at work, she tells me to basically suck it up.
Because I should be happy to have a job.
And she is happy to have a job, but she adds it does make me feel stuck because if you're convincing yourself you're lucky to have a job, it makes you feel like I'm lucky to have this job, but this is all I'll ever do.
Good grief.
The mind contortions that people with too much time on their hands are going through here.
And of course, this is all very good.
This is a new sensitivity.
And I know those of you new to the program are listening to me talk about this.
And you are wondering why I'm being so um caustic of these people in their feet, because I think this is childish.
And it's the wrong kind of attitude to have in a circumstance like this.
Folks, we are the United States of America.
It stands for something, it means something, it's the greatest nation on earth.
And we're not going to stay this way with tiny lily livered paranoia coward type attitudes like this.
Whatever happened to the idea of inspiration and motivation.
Yeah, it's one thing to be sympathetic for somebody who's down on their luck at the moment, but after that, what do you do?
Do you join them in their circumstance so they won't feel as bad?
How's that helping you or them?
And furthermore, how's it helping the country?
On the other hand, if they're out of work and you still have a job, and you're afraid to talk about it, do just the opposite.
Talk about it and inspire them.
There's work out there.
There's there's money with people's names on it out there to be had.
It's the United States of America.
People are getting jobs every month.
Yeah, there are people losing jobs, but there are people that get them every month as well.
It's not a zero-sum game out there.
But beyond beyond all of that is this is this is just not this kind of attitude is not the stiff upper lip and backbone that built the country.
And I I I feel for these people in a way that maybe you uh don't understand.
I just I resent and I feel sorry for them at the same time that they have been seduced into feeling this kind of guilt does nothing for anybody.
Guilt accomplishes nothing, and this is self-imposed guilt.
You know, guilt is one thing, but if you create your own, if you're just out there telling yourself negative story after negative story after negative story, you're gonna be a mess.
You're going to be no good to anybody, including yourself.
And to start feeling guilty about having a job when other people don't, the solution's real easy, real simple.
Quit yours.
If the guilt is just too much to bear.
Commiserate with the unfortunate all you Want, but then do what you can to get them out of that circumstance.
Feel like you can't talk about what went on at work, whether it's good or bad, because it'll make somebody who doesn't have a job feel bad.
Simply it's senseless to me.
No, Rush, you're misunderstanding.
It's the new sensitivity.
No, it's it's not a new sensitivity.
It's been around all too long.
And it is.
Well, here, an attorney at a top New York law firm says I'm actually starting to resent the fact I'm not allowed to hate my job.
I'm not allowed to have a bad day because I'm supposed to be happy I have a job.
He's starting to resent the fact I'm not allowed to hate my job.
Who is preventing him from hating his job?
Who in the world is he granting the power to to make him hate his job?
He doesn't want to hate he hates his job, but he can't say so.
Why?
He's doing it himself.
I guess everybody's constantly asking everybody else how they're doing in the economy.
And if you say you're doing just fine, well, that's just the most insensitive thing you can say.
Okay.
I don't know, folks.
This is um this this this kind of mealy-mouthed attitude about things and overwrought self-focus and concern and invented trauma, invented stress, is designed to make people think that they're good people and so forth, but this is the exact wrong way to go around and and approach uh and deal with this kind of problem.
It's been building political correctness, run em up.
Quick call before we go to the break.
Is the guy on the hotline still there?
He's not there, okay.
Let's take a break.
We'll be back.
We will continue right after this.
Stay with us.
Don't go away.
It's open line Friday.
This is Jeff in Keystone, Colorado.
As we go back to the phones, great to have you here, sir.
Hello.
Hey, great to be with you, Rush Mega Ditto.
This makes my day getting to talk to you.
I appreciate that, sir.
Thank you.
Well, I wanted to talk to you Wednesday to prevent the tragedy that happened in Denver this week, but it wasn't timely, but now it is, and unfortunately nothing we can do about it.
Broncos traded away Jay Cutler.
Broncos traded away Jay Cutler to the Chicago Bears for the dynamic Kyle Orton and two number one draft picks.
Yeah, it's a travesty, I'll tell you.
I thought maybe if I got through Wednesday, you could talk Obama into removing Pat Bolin since they're taking over for CEOs to prevent this from happening to Chicago.
Yeah, the problem is Bolin hadn't asked for a bailout.
If the NFL ever asked for a bailout, then Obama can get rid of the owners and the CEOs and the coaches.
Uh but until that day happens, uh not much.
You know, I have a different I have I what why what are you so upset over losing Cutler for?
Well, first of all, Geitner said he's gonna take over companies even if they don't ask for a bailout.
He's think yeah, he yeah, yeah, okay.
I stand corrected.
I I stand corrected.
So you want him to take over the Denver Broncos because you figure Geitner and Obama will do a better job than Boland and Josh McDaniels.
Yeah, but now I think the fix is in because uh he's going to Chicago where Obama was from, so maybe Obama was involved.
Uh would you help me understand something?
Why are you so upset about losing Jay Cutler?
Well, you know, I mean he only threw for 25 pet touchdowns here 4500 yards.
He's got a rocket arm, and he he's the instrumental in eight wins with a team that couldn't stop anybody.
I cringe every time the Broncos uh win on defense because I knew they couldn't stop him.
You know that he's 13 and one when the Broncos have uh uh allowed 21 points or less.
What is he in the playoffs?
Well, if you don't have a defense, you're not going to the playoffs.
What is he in the playoffs?
He hasn't gone.
Are you against Jake Cutler, Rush?
No, I'm not against anybody that plays football.
It's an I love football.
As you know, I love football.
I'm I'm the biggest football fan.
I just but and I and I think football sports provides just a wonderful escape from reality.
It is fantasy land, Nothing that happens there is I mean, there's no football team that can raise your taxes.
There's no quarterback that can draft your kid to the military.
No football team.
General Motors never hurt anybody.
The Denver Broncos never hurt anybody.
Pat Boland never hurt anybody.
There's n and these people end up being hated more than people who are destroying our lives are disliked.
Now my take on Jay Cutler.
Now I'm I'm old fashioned guy.
But I don't know if he's mature enough to say he's older than twelve years old.
The way he reacted to this whole story that the new coach might have wanted to talk about uh uh getting Matt Castle in from New England.
I mean I I I have to tell you, I have to admit that what's reported in the sports media is just as suspect as what's reported in the news media.
I'm glad you said that, because you're suffering from the spin.
Jay Cutler was loved in Denver.
He was loved by his teammates, and he was never a problem.
And all of a sudden some guy comes in, treats him poorly, uh, and uh lies to him and continues to lie to him, and all of a sudden he's the spin machine gets going, and he's the worst person ever, and he's a crybaby.
He never has been.
He's a fierce competitor.
I mean, that guy is he's great, he's a fierce competitor.
I think Chicago's gonna go great.
I uh I hate to see you suffer from the spin of the uh Denver media rust, because he's not a crybaby.
The thing that I like about him is he stood up to his employer and said, I don't I'm good I'm good enough.
I uh look at that if you want my services, you have to treat me right.
And I and I admire that.
I uh at some point though, you get over it.
It's a business.
Even if you've been for crying out loud, I I think of all the employees in this country who were disrespected, who uh that they're they played games with their heads.
I mean, I could give you a couple interesting examples right now, but you get you get over it.
And and uh he didn't seem whatever it was, he didn't seem to be able to get over it.
Well, he's kind of like He was gonna be the starting quarterback of the Denver Broncos, no matter what happened, he was it.
But because he he got in a snip because they might have wanted somebody else.
So if you don't want me, fine, I'll want out of here.
Now he's gone now, he's gone to Chicago.
Well, no comment about that.
No comment about Denver.
I look at him kind of like you, Rush.
He is successful enough to determine where he wants to go.
John Lway wouldn't play for Frank Cush, and Baltimore traded him to Denver, and Denver was elated.
Uh Josh uh or uh Jay Cutler won't play for Jay uh Jay McDaniels.
We trade him away, and he's vilified.
He's good enough to determine his own future, just like you.
I mean, you could go anywhere you wanted to go if uh your radio station decided that they weren't gonna treat you right.
I admire people who are that successful and have that much talent.
Well, this is it's an interesting take, although um the analogy is not quite the same.
I don't know that if you could have given Cutler his choice, it would have been Chicago.
He's elated.
That was his hometown.
No, that's spin too.
That's oh, the prodigal son comes home.
Oh, yeah.
Prodigal son can his home is Indiana, but his favorite team was the bars.
So now he gets to go home and play for Lovey.
Yep, yep, yep, yep.
It's all spin.
Uh I don't uh uh who knows.
Who knows?
Can you can you name who the three amigos were?
Who?
Who the three amigos were, who John Elway's uh receivers were, they called him the three bigos.
Yeah, I'm in a mental block here.
Why?
What do you want to know?
Well, what I'm saying is the quarterback makes the receivers.
John Lway put that team on his back.
They had a good defense.
Jay Cutler's gonna do the same thing with the receivers in Chicago, and I think the Bears have just uh I mean, I think they got a steal.
Well, we'll see.
It'll be an interesting season.
There's no question about it.
And the Broncos do have a uh uh a quarterback challenge now.
They've they've given themselves that.
But I you know, I uh I don't want to go too far out on a limb here.
I don't know Josh McDaniels, but I knew I do know Mr. Bolin, and I know that he's not irrational.
Now I know and I know that he's he's uh is he's a fine businessman, and I know that he's he's he's not if if he thought that they were at an impasse that this wasn't gonna work, I don't I don't doubt what he says about that.
But anyway, it's uh this is what makes none of it matters in the end, although it does.
Is And uh so we'll see what happens to um to Jay Cutler in Chicago.
The quarterback makes the receiver is the theory on the uh on the table.
Uh you might want to talk to Cliff Branch of the Oakland Raiders about that.
Uh and uh and some others, but I don't deny quarterbacks important.
Don't deny it.
Here's uh Alex in Austin.
Alex, welcome to the EIB network.
Hello, sir.
Mega Dittoes from Austin Brush.
Pleasure.
Thank you, sir.
Listen, I just want to say that uh you, Hannity, the great one.
You guys inspire me, and uh, you know, we're we're there, and it's guys like you that just kind of keep the things rolling here.
I appreciate it.
Thank you, sir very much.
But uh I wanted to comment on the young lady who uh with the job situation, you know.
Um I was out of work for about a year and a half.
It cost me my house, my car, cost me my fiance, cost me everything.
And uh it's not all bad, then I just I couldn't sit around.
I took the last hundred bucks, and I had to start a company so that I could have a job so that I could pay my bills, and uh, you know, here I am.
I'm not gonna take any government money.
I'm not gonna take any handouts.
Um, wait a minute.
You mean you went out and you started, you got your you started your own company or you created your own job?
With a hundred bucks.
Well, you know how insensitive that is.
We just had the story that people are feeling guilty who have jobs.
You should have been happy as hell to be unemployed.
That's the new status simile.
You had to go out there and blow it.
You had to go out and find a job while others can't.
How cruel could you be?
A man, a legend, and a way of life.
Remember when Obama met with the bank CEOs?
Details have now emerged from the meeting.
And according to the Politico.com, the bankers struggle to make themselves clear to the President of the United States.
They're all sitting around a mahogany table in the White House State Dining Room last week.
The CEOs of the most powerful financial institutions in the world offered several explanations for paying high salaries to their employees and by extension to themselves.
Now I'm sure that went on, but I can't I I cannot believe that's the only reason they were in there was to justify compensation packages.
But that's how it's portrayed.
So the CEOs go into Obama's White House, sit there at a long mahogany table, the State Department dining room, and start trying to convince him why they need to earn so much money.
And then it says what one CEO said these are complicated companies.
We're competing for talent on an international market.
To Obama, he said that.
But Obama wasn't in a mood to hear them out.
Now we know this has to be true.
I'm sure this is leaked from the White House to Obama, because the drive-by meeting is just taking dictation these days.
So I'm sure this is a White House sourced story.
And you will have no doubt when you hear the quote attributed to President Obama.
President Obama was not in a mood to hear them out.
He stopped the conversation.
He offered a blunt reminder of the public's reaction to such explanations.
And then Obama said to the CEOs, be careful how you make those statements, gentlemen.
public isn't buying that.
My administration is the only thing between you and the pitchforks.
Barack Obama quoted in the political story as saying to the bank CEOs, be careful.
My administration is the only thing standing between you and the pitchforks.
Meaning the mob.
The mob that President Obama toked, the mob that he fueled, the mob that he and his buddies at Acorn inspired to protest AIG, Their offices and the executives of the homes.
The fresh details of the meeting, some never before revealed, come from an account provided to Politico by one of the participants.
A second source inside the meeting confirmed the details, and two other sources familiar with the meeting offered additional information.
The uh accounts demonstrate that despite the public comments on both sides, the meeting was cordial.
The tone in the room was in fact one of mutual wariness.
The Titans of finance sized up a new president who made clear in ways big and small, he expected them to change their ways.
My God, I I just I'm out of words.
I am literally out of words to describe my anger, trepidation over what is happening here.
I know, I know they all took bailout money.
I know many of them were forced to take bailout money.
But to be dragged in there and to have the President of the United States threaten you.
Hey, the only thing standing between you and the pitchforks is me.
Meaning you better accede to what I want, or you might get mobbed.
The American people are ready to hang you and burn you at the stake for all intents and purposes.
I thought Obama was a great listener.
Isn't that the PR?
President Obama, a great, great listener out there, who would listen to all points of view before offering his own, demand that everybody speak out, calling on people to make sure that they do, not like Bush, who was very stubborn.
I'm the only thing standing between my administration, the only thing standing between you and the pitchforks.
And then he goes on to say that President Obama told the CEOs exactly what he expects from them.
Because he is running their business.
William in Detroit, you're next as we go back to the phones on Open Line Friday.
Nice to have you here.
Hello.
Hi, Rush.
Hi.
I have a question about an aspect of card check that has not been explored.
And uh it's this.
If card check allows union organizers to intimidate workers into joining unions, does it also permit employers to encourage workers to dissolve the union?
Well uh.
Uh I mean, you you might be able to say that it would permit it, but that's not the point.
Uh with Tony Soprano standing in your business with a baseball batter, a lead pipe, you as the business owner are not going to try to convince your workers to throw him out and decertify, because even if you throw him out, Tony Sopranos waiting outside the door when the employees leave.
Yeah.
Well, I just I just wondered if there was a limit as to how long they could organize or how many times they could attempt to organize during a year.
As long as it takes to get it done.
Understands about liberalism.
They never stop until they get what they want, and when they get what they want, it's never enough.
And that's why it's a constant thing to have to oppose them.
You can't join forces with them.
You can't moderate them.
You can't slow them down.
You can slow, but you can't slow them down by joining them.
You can't make them like you and have them change their agenda.
They have to be stopped.
Now, as it is right now, card check is said to be going nowhere because Arlen Spector has decided to vote against it, so they're not going to get the 60 votes they need.
That's now.
And the and the same thing about cap and trade.
Cap and trade said to be dead.
That's now.
There's always next year.
There's always later this year.
There's always any number of things they could do to peel off another vote if Spectre won't.
Look at for how many years were they talking about gay marriage?
How many years were they talking about demonizing the SUV?
That started in 1995.
Here it is 14 years later, and they're on the verge of doing it.
They don't stop.
It's like the Soviets.
They didn't have four-year plans based on the service of term of their leader.
They had forever plans.
And if you had to, you know, take a year off, maybe a step back before you took two steps forward, then fine.
But they had the objective was there, and whenever it got done was fine, as long as you're always working for it.
Same thing with Hugo Chavez.
Hugo Chavez taking over the banks now.
Hugo Chavez nationalizing the oil industry.
Hugo Chavez in Venezuela.
We're getting uh, you know, an early sign of of what Chavez did by watching things happen here.
But they just they don't stop.
They advance these ideas in these this is this is why an electoral majority needs to happen in order to defeat these people, and even after they're defeated, they try to go around it in other ways, getting judges like unanimous decision in Iowa today by the Supreme Court, unanimous, that a ban on gay marriage is unconstitutional.
Now, I guarantee you, if we could go dig up James Madison, say, Mr. Madison, did you intend for the Constitution to say people of the same sex could get married?
And I I guarantee you would have he would have a What are you talking about?
Are you sure you're asking me about the Constitution?
But then the four judges are the major the the you whatever the number, whether unanimous in the Iowa Supreme Court has just they've just said what the what they think the Constitution says.
So this stuff they they never ever stop.
That's what's so troubling about Obama.
Look at this has been an incredible what is it, 60 or 70 days.
He realized it four years of this left.
There's four years of this stuff left.
And uh, you know, he's carving up the country, giving little bits of it away over at these summits with NATO and the uh and the G20.
And now we've got we got uh this Axelrod fella in the White House who puts all the words on the teleprompter that Obama says, and Rom Emanuel are now the editors for news organizations.
I'm sure that you know the the the the the Ram Emanuel, David Axelrod are now they're not gonna ever be listed in the manifest, but they're uh they are the executive editors of Politico.
Already know they're executive editors for Newsweek.
They just take dictation from what happens from Ram Emanuel's office.
Let me find there was a story found it last night about right before six o'clock.
Hang on, ah.
From the McClatchy Washington Bureau, it's a reporter named Stephen Tama, a T H O M M A reporting from London.
Here's the headline.
G twenty reaches accord after Obama steps in to broker deal.
Heading into the summit's final hours, however, it appeared the group would fail to reach a consensus as Nicholas Sarkozy pushed to have the G twenty spotlight offending tax havens based on a list published Thursday by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, and China objected to that, largely because it doesn't belong to the OECD.
So the thing that Sarkozy wanted, identify tax havens, might not have happened because the Chinese, the ChICOMs are not part of the organization.
The whole thing could have fallen apart.
Do you realize that G twenty was hanging by a thread?
And that was when Obama, long a champion of ending or curbing tax havens, decided to float a compromise.
He pulled Sarkozy aside, who spoke on the condition, according to a White House official who spoke on condition of anonymity as a matter of policy.
The official said the president thought he could be helpful in resolving the difference.
Obama proposed the G twenty merely take note of the list of tax havens, thus opening the door to implicit but not direct endorsement of the list.
He sent a message to the Chinese.
They were considering Obama's message for some time, the official said.
Obama then met with Chinese President Hujinto and Sarkozy in a corner of the summit meeting room as the other world leaders waited.
Upon the trio's Reaching agreement, the G20 summit then agreed to note the list of tax havens.
Barack Obama personally saved the G twenty.
Folks, this is no different than if the White House had put out a press release.
And if the White House had put out a press release, it would have been ignored.
If they had this is a press release written by Stephen Tama of McClatchy, that Barack Obama personally saved the G20, and he didn't do anything.
Well, um, I know I don't have the teleprompter, but um, why don't we just, instead of acknowledging, why don't we just take note?
I'm gonna say, yep, uh, the tax havens are there.
Bam, what a brilliant idea.
Nobody in the room could have come up with this.
Oh, he's so brilliant, he saved the G2.
That's the point of the story.
So we got David Axelrod and Rom Emanuel are the executive editors of McClatchy News, they're executive editors of the New York Times of Politico.com.
People just taking dictation.
All right, I gotta go.
Quick timeout.
We'll be back and move right on right after this.
Let's go to Howard Feynman.
This is on MSNBC last night.
The anchor said, Mr. Feynman, Chancellor Merkel said that Obama put his hand into this.
She's not talking about shoulder rubs.
Considering that the buzz before the summit was all about France and Germany threatening to walk out, are these are these no small compliments?
The president in fact did play a role in brokering a deal between two countries, uh, one with famous for its uh diplomatic finesse, namely France, and another one China with 5,000 years of history.
And here the young American president from their relatively young country steps in at a massive summit of 20 countries and gets them literally to talk to each other.
I think the fact that they're putting out that story that not just the United States, but the other countries are supporting it, shows that they want Obama to succeed.
So this is the regurgitation of the PR spin.
So I guess now that uh Ram Emanuel and David Axelrod are the executive editors at uh at Newsweek as well.
And at MSNBC.
So the Chinese and the French, why they didn't talk to each other?
Obama got them to talk to each other at the G twenty.
And we're the most powerful nation in the world, has nothing to do with it.
It's all Obama, not that he's the president of the United States.
It's Obama.
So Hu Jinto.
You know what?
I what I said at the top of the program is true.
I'm telling you what, Hujental and Medvedev in Russia are sitting around.
This guy talks about getting rid of nuclear weapons, and he's carving up this country's sovereignty and giving a little bit of it away at all these summits.
And Hujento and Medvedev ever said, they can't believe their good fortune.
Here's the world superpower with this Dunst president who's gonna disarm.
All we gotta do is make it look like we think this guy's the smartest thing that's ever hit the planet.
Now, these guys don't care about ego.
I know Hu Shinto doesn't care about ego.
Medvedev may have a little ego battle with Putin, but but regardless, these are genuine leaders of their country who are in and about their country, and if we're the enemy and you got a guy saying, My goal is to get rid of all wait teleprompter uh nuclear weapons.
If you're if you got a president saying that, wouldn't you, if you were a smart leader, try to make it look like this guy is the most brilliant man in the whole universe.
I think this whole story's a sham.
They didn't get a deal.
Obama made the deal.
It was all gonna fall apart.
The whole thing is this is done in advance.
So they're putting the story out.
Howard Feynman knows they're putting a story out.
They're willing to put the story out, they're willing to amplify the story that's put out.
Howard Feynman, Newsweek, Politico, totally willing for Axel Rod and Ram Emanuel to be their executive editors.
In the meantime, uh this statement doesn't surprise me at all here.
Uh uh when Feynman says the other countries supporting it shows they want Obama to succeed.
Damn right.
Damn right, he's handing them the United States of America.
He's opening the treasury of the United States of America to them.
Of course they want him to succeed.
Good great.
This is so simple to understand, yet nobody seems to.
We learned earlier in this hour, ladies and gentlemen, that the new chic thing to do is to feel guilty when you have a job.
You're supposed to be guilty that you have a job when others don't have a job.
So let me ask you a question.
You people who are quote unquote in shape.
When you find yourself amongst a bunch of people who are not in shape, maybe a little fat, perhaps obese, do you feel guilty?
Do you feel guilty that uh you do you feel guilty talking about you just came from your workout and you're gonna go take your quick boost energy supplement drink and uh all that?
You feel guilty while somebody's eating a Big Mac and fries?
No, what do you do?
You look at them and they say, you pig, you slob, how dare you eat that stuff?
Look at me.
I'm in the epitome of good.
Yet, when we have a job, we are guilty.
And when we run across the unemployed, we say, Oh God, oh God, I can't tell you about my job.
It's such a horrible rotten thing, I know.
My job is so right, it's bad that I have a job and you don't.
Oh, please forgive me.
I want to talk about my job, but I can't.
But if you're thin and they're fat, you call them a pig and you tell them how to live.
