Yes, America's Anchorman is away and this is your undocumented anchorman sitting in.
Mark Davis will be here tomorrow.
Rush returns on Monday.
And you know, we were talking just before the news about this business with this cow on the lamb in Queens in New York.
And Molly the cow.
Molly is this black heifer who escaped from a slaughterhouse.
And I was suggesting had been rushing to Washington to volunteer to be Barack Obama's next hamburger, which would be a great honor.
And Molly the heifer is a power, her life has been spared.
She's not going to be returned to the slaughterhouse.
And we were saying before the break that we hoped that she wasn't going to wind up being part of the herd that Al Gore rented to graze behind him on the farm in Tennessee when he made his campaign announcement to run for president.
We hope she's got a better life than that.
I mean, what was it we were talking about here a couple of weeks ago?
The Jimmy Carter rest area in Georgia that they're going to go, they're going to close because nobody likes using the, apparently visitors to Georgia don't like using the Jimmy Carter memorial toilet off the interstates.
So they all drive on.
They drive the extra 180 miles with their legs crossed to get to the non-Jimmy Carter rest area.
So maybe, maybe this Molly the Heifer could just spend the rest of her days grazing peacefully outside the Jimmy Carter memorial toilet and end her days that way.
It'd be very, very, nice, nice, heartening story that.
But people were talking a lot about the Obama hamburger and this business of him ordering the Dijon mustard and ordering the Grey Poupon.
And I have to say, speaking as a foreigner, that I deeply resent Barack Obama crashing in as the Grey Poupon spokesperson because that has been the lifesaver for non-American voiceover artists in this country for years getting the gig doing the grey poupon voiceover.
You know, you do the try the new grey poupon squeeze, one of life's simpler pleasures.
And the idea that Barack Obama now is going to be collaring, it's insourcing in effect.
This is normally like the grey poupon endorsements is something that's if you can't endorse, if you can't outsource grey poupon to foreigners, what can you outsource?
And instead now he's apparently the big grey poupon spokesperson putting it all over his hamburger.
Barack Obama, that was, what was that?
It was yesterday, Barack Obama had a hamburger.
I don't know what he may do today to pass for human.
Al Gore, Al Gore had a problem with that.
Do you remember that speech he gave at the Democratic Convention where he said, he gave the gabe away.
He said, I have spent many years studying people in their living environments or something.
And he made it sound like he'd just landed from the planet Zongo.
Yeah, I don't think he was a pervert thing.
I think he was just saying that whatever his home planet is, he was able to...
It's the Sarah Palin thing.
I can see Earth from my house.
That's the Al Gore.
That's the Al Gore version of it.
But Obama is doing a much better job of just being human, being normal.
He goes on dates.
His wife, do you see that?
The first lady wore a dress twice, just like any regular human being.
This is amazing, amazing stuff.
Now, Obama, Obama is being, unfortunately, not everyone is happy with Obama.
And on the gay marriage issue, he has the same position on gay marriage as Carrie Prayjan, the current Miss California.
If she hasn't been stripped of her title, because she's been pretty much stripped of everything else in the last 48 hours.
Poor old Carrie Préson, who had the same position on Barack Obama as gay marriage and has been now been destroyed, the pin-up, the poster girl, for intolerant, homophobic bigotry, and has had got no chance not of only being Miss USA, but even the Miss California thing, she may not be any miss nothing.
They got all these pictures of her out there.
They're making jokes about cosmetic work she's had done.
The poor woman has been destroyed for essentially having the same position on gay marriage as Barack Obama.
And the question then arises: why doesn't Obama support gay marriage?
I mean, we all know he really does support gay marriage, but the question then arises: why doesn't he come out and support it?
And what's interesting to me about this is not so much the pros and cons of gay marriage, which we can certainly get into, but what it tells us about the Democratic playbook.
And this is the great advantage that the Democrats have.
If you go back to 1999, when Vermont became the first state, the Vermont Supreme Court said you've got to let gays form formal unions.
So they introduced civil unions.
And at that point, everybody was kind of stunned and taken aback by that.
What is it?
How did Vermont do this?
Is it something in the maple syrup?
How did this happen?
Where did it come from?
And Vermont introduced civil unions.
And at that point, that was the progressive, radical, liberal position to be in favor of civil unions.
Now it's a mere 10 years on, and Maine is introducing formal gay marriage.
Iowa has two.
And suddenly, civil unions, which was the radical position in 1999, is now the position only of discredited Republican homophobes.
It's their fallback.
It's their fallback position.
The Republican homophobes' fallback position is civil unions.
That is an amazingly effective way of moving the political goalposts in the space of 10 years.
And the great advantage, if you look back at what happened in Vermont in 1999, the minute the Vermont Supreme Court came out in favor of civil unions, and the minute the Republican Party in Vermont said, oh, wait a minute, where are we going?
Howard Dean, the Democratic governor, was able to position himself halfway between the Vermont Supreme Court and the Republican Party and say, see, I'm the moderate centrist one who's in favor of civil unions.
The court has ruled this.
I will accommodate the court while respecting tradition and I will make those right-wing Republicans look like homophobes.
And that has basically been the Democratic position on this for the last 10 years.
Whatever the court rules, the Democratic candidate takes one step to the right of it and just won't go the whole way.
Barack Obama says he's fully respectful of gays.
He's committed to equal rights for gays, but just doesn't quite support gay marriage.
And the reason he can do this is because A, people know he doesn't mean it, and B, people know that the courts and other institutions in society are all making the running to his left.
So in effect, it enables Barack Obama to appear as the sort of Democratic centrist, Democratic moderate centrist type on this, positioning himself halfway between the court and what the courts rule and the Neanderthal Republicans.
This is a marvelous way.
If you said 10 years ago, all the polling on gay marriage was entirely negative, entirely negative, overwhelmingly disapproved of by millions and millions of people.
And simply by letting courts present it as a fait accompli and Democrat candidates cynically running one step back from that, it has now become the norm to the point where poor old Carrie Préjon has had her life destroyed, not because she's a homophobe, but because she expressed a very tentative personal view that marriage should be between a man and a woman.
And to get to the heart of Democratic dishonesty on this issue, the Democrats in the New Hampshire Senate recently voted in favor of gay marriage in New Hampshire.
Now, first time round, they hadn't voted in favor of this bill, but they did the second time around.
And what happened to them in between was that they got the party heavies in Washington got on the line to them and said, no, you've got to support this.
The reality is that everyone knows Barack Obama, Barack Obama's position on gay marriage is dishonest, and that's why he's allowed to get away with it.
In other words, this is a kind of political calculation.
But why?
That again raises the larger issue.
If social conservatism is such a loser, then why will national political figures shy away from something like gay marriage?
I mean, if it's such an obvious loser, if it's just the preserve of notorious hate mongers like Carrie Préson, then why is it that Barack Obama didn't just say, yeah, sure, I'm for gay marriage.
Who isn't?
Everyone I know is in favor of gay marriage.
Why, if social conservatism is such a loser, does he not actually dare to just say in his usual calm, moderate, teleprompter head turn way, yeah, sure, I'm in favor of gay marriage.
It's no big deal to me.
It's no bigger a deal than going to the fast food joint and having a hamburger with Grey Poupon.
It's something perfectly normal.
It's a little more, in fact, that's the equivalent.
It's instead of having your hamburger with ketchup, you have it with grey poupon, but it's still a hamburger.
He could easily do that with marriage.
But the fact is, he's taken this view that it's in his interest not to come out for gay marriage.
And that begs the question: why?
Why?
If the social conservatives are just a bunch of discredited losers, why not go for it?
I mean, you've got the real wind at your backs.
Every week now, some legislature, some court, some somebody somewhere rules in favor of gay marriage.
Even when you pass a constitutional amendment against it, the gay activists will go to court to get the Constitution ruled unconstitutional.
The wind is blowing in that direction.
On Brokeback Mountain, the wind only blows in one direction.
And it's blowing their way.
Why not get with the program?
And I think that's the more interesting point: what it tells you about the Democrats' own calculation on where people are on some of these issues.
So we'll talk about some social conservatism and some of these matters and the Democrats' exploitation of these issues and their opportunism straight ahead.
Mark Stein sitting in for Rush, 1-800-282-2882.
Mark Stein in for Rush.
Molly the Cow.
Actually, I don't know.
Why can't Molly the Cow go to the vegetable garden at the White House?
They've got a vegetable garden at the White House.
Why couldn't, if they want to be just like regular folks, why couldn't they milk Molly the Heifer every morning?
It's got to be better than going either to the Al Gore cow.
He's got the Radio City kick line of cows in the background or the Jimmy Carter Memorial Toilet.
Actually, one of the things I like about Obama is he's not one of these guys who pretends to be rural.
I mean, he's very urban with his grey coupon.
He's not like Al Gore.
You remember, he used to do these speeches where he would say, My dad taught me how to clear land with a double-bladed axe.
He taught me how to plow a steep hillside with a team of mules.
This whole thing.
This is a guy who was raised at the Fairfax Hotel on Embassy Row in Washington.
You know, what do you need a double-bladed axe?
The Fairfax Hotel in Washington for.
You know, that's fine if you want to clear the pub court one afternoon, saying, I've got to get these pot plants out of here.
But what was this idea, this fake ruralism that politicians go in for?
And I quite like the way, like, Barack Obama, he's just like pure Hyde Park Chicago.
You know, it's the wildlife is something the Parks and Recreation Department take care of.
He's just Mr. Urban.
He's got no interest in it.
Let's go to Charles in Columbia, Maryland.
Charles, you're on the Rush Limbaugh show.
There may be a prize heifer for one lucky caller today, by the way.
We may give away a prize.
Okay, Mark.
To answer your question.
To answer your question, why Obama doesn't come out straight up for gay marriage?
That's not a good way of putting it, but never mind.
Anyway, listen, listen, I'm reading Rules for Radicals, Sololinsky, right now.
You have to present a non-threatening face to the public.
Right.
This guy is a crypto-common communist.
I mean, we all know that.
Mark Levin calls him a Marxist.
That's why I'm putting out my favorite coffee mug.
It's called My Favorite Marxist, Obama.
Right.
But the point is, I got a bumper sticker on my car right now.
It says Obamanomics equals trickle-up poverty.
Right.
Socialists destroy jobs.
Yep.
Let me give my website.
You've got to buy time for that, Charles.
But you did make a good point there.
He appears moderate.
If you're going to do radical things, you've got to appear moderate.
And the trick that the Democrats have done, and this is why the war on language actually is so important, is that if you let one side take all the nice fluffy words and you're just and all your words are marginalized, then you've literally got no way of talking about these issues.
If you take any issue, the Democrats have taken all the nice words on immigration, for example.
On immigration, there is literally now no language.
I mean, it's not even immigration.
I don't even know why I say that.
It's like illegal immigration for a start isn't immigration.
And actually, what's going on, the subversion of the borders and subversion of databases and subversion of sovereignty in the macro sense is not, that's not even an immigration issue.
Yet, if you try to talk about it, because language, all the fluffy words have been co-opted by the so-called moderate liberals, you're painted as a, if you're lucky, as a nativist, and if you're unlucky, as a racist.
Literally, the language has been annexed to ensure that these issues can only be framed in Democrat terms.
And that's true of gay marriage, too.
This thing, homophobia.
I hate this because I was accused of Islamophobia, which is nothing, a word that didn't exist 20 years ago.
But the Muslim lobby groups figured they looked at the gay guys who are making such progress with this thing called homophobia.
I prefer it actually when you were just called a racist or a bigot or a sexist.
They were nice words because they made you sound like you were kind of active.
Whereas homophobia is just a way of saying, well, you've got a mental illness.
If you say, well, I'm not really in favor of gay marriage, they don't think that's a political policy decision that they can discuss with you.
They say, well, no, you're a homophobe, which is just a way of saying, well, you've got a mental illness, but just lie down in the gurney.
We'll strap you down, give you a couple of shots, you'll feel fine in the morning.
It's a way of making discussion unnecessary the minute you use words like homophobia.
and Islamophobia.
I love the word.
They don't even have to.
They're contradictory.
There was a guy in London, Sir Iqbal Sokrani, who's one of these moderate Muslims who's been knighted by the Queen.
And he goes on the BBC and he says that he thinks that homosexuality is disgusting and Islam is opposed to homosexuality because it's just immoral and spreads disease.
So this gay group complains to Scotland Yard, which promptly investigates Sir Iqbal Sokrani for his homophobia.
Simultaneously, a gay newspaper in London says that Muslims believe that gays are immoral and should not be around and shouldn't be allowed to practice what they do.
And the Muslim lobby group complains to Scotland Yard, which investigates the gay group for Islamophobia.
So if you say that Islam, if you say if you're a Muslim who says that Islam doesn't approve of homosexuality, you'll be investigated for homophobia.
But if you're a gay who says that Muslims don't approve of homosexuality, you'll be investigated for Islamophobia.
And the whole point about this is just to say, let's not discuss any of this.
We can't discuss it because your opposition is not an intellectual position.
It's a form of, it's essentially a form of mental illness.
And that has been the genius of the left's annexation of the non-political institutions and the non-political levers in society these last 30 years.
That literally we've been stripped of a language with which you can even talk about these issues.
And at some point, the right, that's why when people talk about Ronald Reagan, Reagan's great gift, great gift, was to be able to take back a lot of the good language from the left.
And he was able to use language in ways that mocked the left's positions.
And this idea that somehow all that is irrelevant is simply untrue.
It's gotten more difficult, but we have to find a way through it to at least enable us to discuss some of these issues without getting destroyed in the way poor Miss California was.
This is Mark Stein sitting in for Rush on the EIB network.
Rush will be back on Monday, and Mark Davis is going to be here tomorrow Friday.
More straight ahead.
Mark Stein in for Rush.
A couple of listeners have queried when I was suggesting that Michelle Obama might like to try milking Molly the Heifer, have queried whether you actually can get milk from a heifer.
Not initially, but I think if we invest $2.7 trillion in the heifer, then we would have a safe, renewable source of environmentally friendly milk in the years ahead.
So keep milking away there, Michelle, and it should all work out.
Let's go to Lee in Huntsville, Alabama.
Lee, you're on the Rush Limbaugh show.
Hello.
Nice to speak with you.
Hey, great to talk with you too.
You mentioned about Obama getting a pass, basically, with the liberals on his stance on the gay marriage issue, which is kind of a wishy-washy stance anyway.
Right.
But mainly it's because I think, I mean, if you look at the biggest group of people that voted for him when he was elected was the black population, by what, 90% or something like that?
That's right.
I think it's over 90%, actually, of the black population of the black vote he got.
And the black population as a whole does not support gay marriage.
No, you make a good point that on the streets of California in these Proposition 8 things a few weeks ago, they were having these gay black rumbles.
It was like some wacky West Coast touring production, a West Side story.
The gays and the blacks were having these showdowns on the streets of West Hollywood.
And this one gay group, I remember the great quote from the L.A. Times, told the black guys, you come around here again, we're going to give you one hell of a wilding.
I mean, this is something I felt like James Baker did about the Balkans.
You know, whoa, I don't have a dog in this fight.
Let's just sit back and what is going on here.
But do you think that's the real reason, that it's his black base, the African-American base, that actually fiercely objects to this?
Yes, I do, and I think that's the reason why he has to kind of straddle this fence.
And by the way, since I don't like Obama's policies, am I an Obama phobic?
Yes, you are, actually.
And you are an Obama phobe.
That is, you're an Alabama file, but an Obama phobe.
Exactly.
You're simultaneously bamophiliac and bamophobic.
So you should probably get some treatment for that.
But it would probably involve leaving the country and getting treated for it in Costa Rica because you certainly can't afford to get it treated under the whatever Obama healthcare plan comes up with.
Thanks for your call, Lee.
That's an interesting thought that the strongest, fiercest, that's actually why Proposition 8 passed in California.
It's because the black turnout that came out in November to vote for Obama also stayed in the voting booth long enough to support Proposition 8, de-gaying marriage.
And you might be right that Obama is running some particular math among the fractious parts of his base on that.
Let's take a call from Alec in Knoxville, Tennessee.
Alec, you're on the Rush Limbaugh show.
Mark Stein, your voice is even better than you look.
Thank you.
Thank you.
But please, I don't take proposals for gay marriage on the air.
You should wait till the show's over for that.
But thank you.
Thank you kindly.
That's very nice.
I would have liked it more from Lee in Huntsville, but I'll take it from you, Alec, as well.
That's very nice of you.
You guys can hook up later.
Hey, this gay marriage thing, basically, the way I think that it is, is what they're doing is saying that they can do marriage better than the heterosexuals can.
So this irrational argument is what they're using to promote their new wave of attack on the marriage of man and woman, as it's been throughout the centuries.
Why don't they just drop corporations and just have a corporation as a partnership?
Well, I did explain in the previous hour that America has the second highest rate of corporate tax in the developed world.
So if a gay couple were to form itself as a corporation, the tax liabilities of that would be horrendous.
But you're right.
I think you're right to this degree, that it isn't really about.
And what I find interesting is not the opposition to gay marriage among the black community so much, but the opposition actually among large numbers of gays who think that gay marriage is like playing too straight.
The point of being gay is that you're not sort of boring and straight and bourgeois and suburban, and that there's a lot of conflict in the gay community about whether this is the right strategy.
But I think at heart, what it does is it puts fundamental societal institutions up for big, broad redefinition.
I mentioned here a couple of weeks ago that in Canada there's a polygamy suit before the Supreme Court now, working its way to the Supreme Court, which there's no real argument against polygamy once you've approved gay marriage.
Basically, every argument you make in favor of gay marriage also applies to polygamy.
That there's no end.
Once you start redefining societal institutions that predate every nation-state on the planet, then there's no end to it.
But you're right, Alec.
Maybe that is a solution.
I certainly would appreciate it if instead of getting married, you could organize as a corporation.
And then you wouldn't need to be polygamous because you could just take over other corporations, couldn't you?
So you would.
Yes, well, obviously, HHR is obsessed with the tax rate on that.
Yes, you'd get clobbered.
But that, again, would be if they brought down, if they said that instead of getting married, couples, all kinds of couples now, can register as corporations, and they then transferred the married couple's exemption to corporations.
That might be the only way to make General Motors profitable if it could re-register as Detroit's first gay couple.
I'm just like free associating here, folks.
You don't have to.
These aren't part of the official party platform yet.
We're still in the exploratory stage, but we're just kicking around a few ideas here.
Let's go to Jennifer in Los Angeles, Proposition 8 Central, where they have the gay black rumbles in West Hollywood.
Yeah, you didn't attend any of those.
No, I didn't, but I live right in the heart of West Hollywood, so I saw a lot of going on.
But what I wanted to mention today was, you know, the whole talk of the right being too extreme, so on and so forth, they need to be more moderate.
Well, there is really no such thing as a moderate position.
There is yin and there's yang.
With the two parties, you could say the Democrats are yin or yang.
People who say, well, I like moderation, they're choosing what they like from both sides because they want balance.
So the whole idea to try to move the Republican Party to ideas that are more like the Democrats, you destroy the whole balance of yin and yang.
And so, I mean, like looking at it from an Eastern philosophical view.
That's what we were talking about earlier.
And you take, for example, what's going on in Britain.
You know, the Conservatives are ready to come into power, but there are so many people who are unhappy with Conservatives because the Conservatives have moved too far to the left.
So now you have a real party of the right, the BNP, British National Party, actually winning elections, surprising people, and could possibly become a huge party because they're going to be able to get a lot of money.
Well, you never want to make no political party wants to make space on its own side that so disaffects its own base that you start running, as Pat Buchanan did against the first George Bush in 1992.
But Jennifer, you're at ground zero there in California because you don't have to look to Britain for this.
If you take your own governor, essentially he did one of these socially liberal, fiscally conservative things.
He said he's in favor of gay marriage and all the rest of it.
He's in favor of everything, but he said he was fiscally conservative.
He said the state's spending too much.
And California has learned that when you get a conflict between the social liberalism and the fiscal conservatism, suddenly the fiscal conservative isn't so fiscally conservative anymore.
And the social liberalism, most of it comes with quite a big government price tag.
That's the problem.
That's the problem with it.
Are you going, are you still, did you sour on Arnold very early or are you still sticking with him?
Oh, no, I think he's terrible.
I think he's a stealth.
I call him a stealth Republican.
He's not really a Republican.
See, somebody like him, he comes in, he says he's a Republican, he's fiscal conservative, and then he acts like a Democrat and he ruins it for all Republicans because now the Democrats are going to say, oh, I'm not going to vote for a Republican.
Look what Arnold Schwarzenegger did.
You know, Democrat or moderates who might have or whatever.
You know what I mean?
It's like, so I think he ruins it essentially for any Republican that's going to run next time.
Well, that's a good way of putting it, Jennifer.
Thanks for your call.
And you're right.
At some point, when a guy says, look, I'm socially liberal and fiscally conservative, you have the right to know how he's going to square that circle.
What's going to give?
And Arnold, who had a terrific story, it would be great if only he'd lived up to it.
He came here.
He came here as a penniless immigrant to a land of plenty.
And now California is a penniless land governed by an immigrant of plenty.
Why can't other Californians get a slice of the same opportunities that Arnold Schwarzenegger had?
It's an over-regulated state.
It's got its libraries in Berkeley, California.
The library computer checkout program isn't currently being serviced because the company that was supposed to service it refuses to say that it's a nuclear-free company.
Berkeley apparently is a nuclear-free zone.
And so even to get the contract to service the book checkouts in the Berkeley Library, you've got to say you're a nuclear-free zone.
This is going to make checking out a library book in Berkeley hideously expensive because they've got to get in a whole new company now.
That's the trouble.
The social liberalism, fiscal conservatism model doesn't work because the social liberalism and the activism and all the rest of it usually comes with price, quite a price tag.
More straight ahead on the Rush Limbaugh show.
Mark Stein sitting in for Rush on the EIB network.
A story from the BBC, Eco Sailors Rescued by Oil Tanker.
An exhibition team, an expedition team which set sail from Plymouth on a 5,000-mile carbon emission free trip to Greenland have been rescued by a U.S. oil tanker.
The team which left Mount Batten Marina on April the 19th aimed to rely on sail, solar and manpower on a 580-mile journey to and from the highest point of the Greenland ice cap.
The expedition was followed by up to 40 schools across the United Kingdom to promote climate change awareness.
But atrocious weather dogged their journey and the wind generator and solar paddles were ripped from the yacht.
That is a meta for folks for where the environmental fetishism will lead.
Essentially, to have progress, you require innovation.
You don't consciously step backward to say that the innovation and the science and the technology is destroying us and we have to take refuge in a kind of pristine natural state where only wind power and solar power are allowed to drive our economy.
That story, the eco-friendly boat, the wind generator and solar panels got ripped from the yacht and they had to be rescued by a U.S. oil tanker.
That is a metaphor. for where the world is headed.
You know, I often get into the final hour of the show here and people say, well, you know, but wait a minute, wait a minute, it's also, is it over?
Is the game over?
Is it time?
Is the great American experiment over?
No.
But if you go back and you read Tocqueville 200 years ago, you will understand that the strength of this country is in trusting its people and in trusting the natural competition of a federalist system.
Now, I've got no objection if Arnold Schwarzenegger wants to destroy California.
If he wants to take the golden state and turn it into one giant rust bucket, that's between him and the Californian people.
And likewise, if somebody in South Dakota or somebody in Idaho or somebody in Alabama or somebody in Maine wants to try a completely different way of governing, that is between them and their electorates.
Where it all gets very dangerous is when you have a president and a Democratic Congress who are essentially committed to federal annexation.
Federal annexation, ensuring that there's a kind of one-size-fits-all model across the country is going to put a big question mark over America.
A friend of mine in New Hampshire, he's on the local board of a town.
He had a bridge that the state ruled was washed out.
They could have repaired it for $30,000, but the state said, no, no, let's go in.
Why don't you go in on the 80-20 format where the town pays 20% of the cost of the bridge and the state pays 80%?
So they said, sure, fine.
Years go by, the bridge still hasn't been repaired.
Now they come to them and say the stimulus package, under the stimulus package, the federal government will pay 60% of the cost of the new bridge and the state will only have to pay 40%.
So the town would only have to pay 20% of under the 80-20 state-town format, which in turn would only be 40% of the 60-40 federal state format.
And so the bridge still won't be repaired for another five years.
And by that point, they'll be saying, well, under the UN formula, you can go on with the UN formula 70-30, where the international community will pay 70% of the bridge and the federal government will only pay 30%.
This is ridiculous.
This is ridiculous.
The great glory of America was Americans doing it themselves, getting the job done.
Build the bridge for $30,000 in your own town and tell the state and tell the feds and tell whoever the guys are at the United Nations who want to get mixed up with it.
Tell them all to take a hike.
America was founded on the idea that freeborn citizens can do it for themselves.
If you need a remote government, centralized government thousands of miles away to tell you how to do it, then you're basically back to where you were under, in fact, you're in a worse situation than you were under King George III.
And you might as well, July the 4th this year, declare a declaration of dependence on good King Barak.
Mark Stein, sitting in for Rush, 1-800-282-2882.
Hey, it flew by for me today.
We covered everything from Colin Powell the moderate to Molly the Heifer.
It was an eclectic mix.
It's been great fun, Mark Stein sitting in, but as always, the Border Patrol is waiting in the lobby, and I got a run.
And Mark Davis is going to be here tomorrow, and rush back on Monday with more on the EIB network.
For me, heffer nice day, as Molly's friends at the slaughterhouse would say.
Mark Davis checks in with you tomorrow on the Excellence in Broadcasting Network.
