Who said this?
If everybody's thinking alike, somebody isn't thinking.
And who said this?
Pressure makes diamonds.
Same person uttered both quotes.
Greetings, great to have you here.
It's L Rushbow on the cutting edge of societal evolution.
On the most listened to radio talk show in America, telephone number if you want to join us is 800 282-2882 email address L Rushball at EIB net.com.
If everybody's thinking alike, somebody isn't thinking.
How did you know that, Brian?
How in the world did you know that?
Well, did somebody Google it real quick in there?
That's right, is General George Patton, who said both.
If everybody's thinking alike, somebody isn't thinking.
Why am I saying that well, if the Republicans want to start thinking like Democrats, somebody's not thinking?
And we know the Democrats are thinking and strategizing.
Pressure makes diamonds.
And also from George Patton.
You know, I I sit here, ladies and gentlemen, as I as I think about all of this debating within the GOP and with the Democrats.
We, conservatives, we really do have the best arguments.
We have the most responsible policies.
We have the most humane principles.
The more we confront these people, the more we debate, the more we expose, the clearer that will become.
Not just to us, but to others.
And that's why we have to keep it up.
I'm getting a lot of emails.
Rush, please don't quit, please don't stop.
I have no intention of it, folks.
I was telling Snerdley here during the break, I fully expect at some point in the near future to receive a phone call.
A private phone call off air from somebody somewhere in elected Republican Party politics, asking me to tone it down.
I fully expect this to happen.
They are scared.
This Supreme Court nomination coupled with the election of Obama, this is to them these oppressed minorities rising up and finally saying we're not taking it anymore, and you guys are going to find out what it's like to be in a pressman, and they're scared.
And they're willing to be oppressed minorities.
Republicans and they're willing to think that way.
On the other hand, if we surrender to the left, if we surrender to these old guard moderates in the Republican Party who want to surrender to the left, none of this would be happening.
Even in this, what do the moderates offer?
They just repeat their platitudes.
They tell us to keep quiet.
They don't even want the debate.
That scares them.
The old guard moderates in the Republican Party have no faith in who they are because they have no idea what principles that they will defend.
They don't even know what principles they will surrender.
They have no confidence in who they are.
And what the nation is, but we do, we conservatives do.
We are we are overflowing with confidence about who we are and what this nation is.
But the Republican Party old guard, the blue blood country clubbers do not.
I'll tell you something else, folks.
Try this on precise.
The old guard blue blood country club Republicans are scared to death that if they oppose Sonia Sotomayor, that they will forever be casting aside the chance to get the women and Hispanic vote.
Now I know I've said this countless times today, but I want to understand why it is.
I need somebody to tell me why it is that the Democrats can be literally mean extremists, try to destroy people, and that never hurts them.
They can criticize any of us in any way.
They can literally try to destroy lives, reputations.
They never suffer from it.
Nobody ever gets mad at them.
In fact, that's the party we're told that moderates will run to if there is the slightest bit of criticism of Democrats by Republicans.
It's absolutely absurd, but our thought believes it.
So we acquiesce to the nomination of Sonia Sotomayor.
Because in doing so, this is somehow going to show the Hispanic community that we love them.
And they're going to somehow vote for us, even though two Hispanic high profile appointments in the Bush administration didn't get anything.
And more importantly, leading the move for amnesty.
Well, I bet if anything was going to get the Hispanic vote.
Because that's the number one issue.
Wouldn't you say?
The Hispanic community in America, I could be wrong about this, but...
Seems to me we had a bunch of protests with millions of people.
I know the unions were involved and so forth, but still seems to me that the Hispanic vote's number one issue is immigration, is it not?
Now, once again, Barry Sotero, now Barack Obama.
It's getting a Hispanic vote.
The Democrats get it.
Why?
Hispanics think the Obama, the Democrats are doing their bidding for him.
And everything.
So let me ask you a question here.
Has Obama had the obligatory White House meeting on immigration with the study groups that did report to him two hours later and problem solved.
Hasn't done that.
What what's what's on the agenda here after Sotomayor?
Tax or cap and tax, cap and trade, and health care.
Those are the two big things Obama's going for.
Well, plus taking over car companies, but he's got that done.
The two biggies this year are cap and trade and health care nationalization.
Where's immigration in that?
Now next year is 2010.
And next year happens to be an election year.
And I don't think even the Democrats are foolish enough to go for amnesty programs for illegal immigrants in an election year.
And so there's no illegal immigration amnesty bill going to move this year, certainly not next year in 2010.
But that doesn't matter.
A female Hispanic, Sonia Sotomayor, to the Supreme Court.
So he gets a three for here.
He gets a political hack like himself on the court.
He gets an anti-constitutionalist.
One who believes in empathy like himself on the court, plus he has appeased the Hispanic community on immigration for a couple years.
If anybody is using, if anybody is toying with, if anybody is being cynical toward Hispanics, it's Obama.
He's ignoring their number one issue.
On the other hand, the Republican Party, in George W. Bush, the sitting president, and in John Sidney McCain, the presidential candidate, led the way for immigration and amnesty.
Anyway.
And we know the esteemed President Bush is held in today, and we know where McCain is, he's in Sedona.
Plotting his reelection strategic to the Senate.
Somebody much smarter than I am is going to have to explain all of this to me.
Because the way I look at it, everything that the Republicans think they need to do to get people to love them and like them and vote for them is backfiring.
They're doing what is...
what they're told needs to be done.
It just isn't working.
There's the real cynicism.
The real cynicism is Obama.
Using the Sotomayer pick as a way of appeasing his Hispanic voters and buying them off on the whole notion of immigration or number one issue coming down the pike.
Now, uh, I am being criticized in the drive-by media.
He couldn't even give her a day.
I mean, he couldn't wait.
It would not even 90 minutes and a limbai's out trying to say the horrible things about Sonia Satomayor.
Forty-five minutes after the Reagan administration announced the nomination of Robert W. Bork to the Supreme Court, Ted Kennedy took to the Florida Senate and said this.
Robert Bork's America is a land in which women would be forced into back alley abortions.
Blacks would sit at segregated lunch counters.
Rogue police could break down citizens' doors in midnight raids.
School children could not be taught about evolution.
Writers and artists could be censored at the whim of the government, and the doors of the federal courts would be shut on the fingers of millions of citizens for whom the judiciary is and often is the only protector of the individual rights that are at the heart of our democracy.
President Reagan is still our president, but he should not be able to reach out from the muck of Irangate, reach into the muck of Watergate, and impose his reactionary vision of the Constitution on the Supreme Court and the next generation of Americans.
No justice would be better than this injustice.
That is about as chocked full of lies, misstatement, that is about as personally insulting and mean as you can get.
What was the result of this?
Bork didn't get out of committee.
The mean-spirited evil Democrats lying through the teeth of Ted Kennedy 45 minutes after he was nominated succeeded.
They did not pay a price.
Apparently.
So imagine if a Republican, pick your favorite Republican senator, yesterday had gone to the floor of the Senate 45 minutes after Obama's announcement of Sonia Sotomayor and said this.
Sonia Sotomayor's America is a land in which the rule of law would be turned into the rule of empathy, where quotas would triumph over merit.
Rogue bureaucrats could break down citizens' doors in midnight raids.
Free thinkers could be censored at the whim of government, and the doors of the federal courts would be shut on the fingers of millions of citizens for whom the judiciary is and is often the only protector of the individual rights that are heart of our democracy.
President Obama is still our president, but he shouldn't be able to reach out from the muck of porculus.
From the muck of stimulus, from the muck of tarp, from the muck of 12 trillion dollars in deficits, and impose his reactionary vision, his anti-constitutional vision on the Supreme Court and the next generation of Americans.
No justice would be better than this injustice.
Imagine what would be happening today if a Republican senator had taken to the floor and said that.
And that my rewrite is mild compared to what Ted Kennedy said about Robert Bork.
That was 1987.
Do you remember that, uh, Don?
Do you remember the Borking of Bork?
Don does her.
So this is the first time you've heard that's what Ted Kennedy said.
Okay, okay.
All right.
Well, I uh I remember it, of course, at the time.
And you know what else I remember about it.
I remember in 19 this is I think 87 was the year.
And that year I was in Sacramento, California.
You know what I remember about it?
I remember that the Republicans of that day laughed.
Oh, nobody's gonna believe that's so off the off the deep end, that's all over the top.
No, no, no, nobody's gonna believe this.
The Reagan administration didn't do much to defend Bork.
I remember that.
I remember watching.
Why why is the administration letting this guy dangle in the wind all by himself?
They didn't they didn't do anything to defend him.
I concluded because they didn't think this was gonna happen.
Bork.
He was a perfect jurist.
He was ideal for the Supreme Court.
You know what else the left hated about him?
During his hearings, he described the job in part as being an intellectual feast.
They hated that.
I can remember the Democrats on the Judiciary Judiciary Committee having a cow over that.
An intellectual feast.
And of course they got on him on the Griswold case out of uh Connecticut.
That's force you to back alley to have an abortions and all this sort of stuff.
But nobody thought that this I mean, this has never been done before.
It's a solving a top.
This is they were laughing about it.
And Ted Kennedy's statement in 1987 has become the blueprint for the way the Democrats react to virtually every Republican president's Supreme Court nominees.
And often cabinet nominees.
So they, somebody tell me here.
Somebody explain this to me.
I want to know.
I want to know why it is the Democrats never pay a price for being mean-spirited, critical.
They can go after black people, they can go after Hispanic people, they can go after white people, they can go after women, they can destroy anybody they want.
And somehow it never hurts them.
And nobody ever says they'd better be careful.
Republicans who are not opposing Sonia Sotomayor because she's a woman or because she's Hispanic are warned, don't oppose her at all.
Or you'll pay the price.
And now Republicans, okay, we're gonna wave the white flag on this.
We can't oppose her.
We'll go extinct if we do.
Republican Party is extinct.
And if we're gonna throw in a towel on this, we may as well throw in a towel on Obama.
He's a minority.
We're gonna really make the blacks mad every time we oppose anything he wants to do.
So we just better back up.
Let him have everything he wants.
That's a way.
Show the people a country that we love them.
If everybody's thinking alike, somebody isn't thinking.
By the way, one quick note here.
Uh there was a story in the New York Times on April 9th of this year, Obama to push immigration bill as one priority.
While acknowledging that the recession makes the political battle more difficult, President Obama plans to begin uh addressing the country's immigration system this year, including looking for a path for illegals to become illegal, a senior administration of Phil's.
Okay, every statement he makes has an expiration date.
And since April 9th, we haven't heard anything about this.
We're here in Camp and Trade, we're hearing uh health care.
If he wants to throw illegal immigration in the mix, amnesty in the mix, he can go ahead.
Uh, but the other two things we know are priorities.
In the meantime, back to the phones to Inglewood, Florida.
This is Tom.
I'm glad you waited, sir.
Great to have you with us.
Hello.
Great to have you with uh with me also.
Thank you.
Uh I uh I agree with you 110% on a soda uh deal.
And the only thing is I think that we need an attack dog on this situation.
As somebody in Congress that can take her over the coals just the way they did work and as you described as work.
Look, they're gonna they're gonna think of us anyhow as uh as uh hypocrites and homophobes and and racists.
So who cares anymore?
You know, let's go after left and news media to do what they want to do.
You know, there's that well, wait a minute, hold up to this how can a Republican Party get in worse shape than they're already in.
That's kind of what you're saying.
And how can they get themselves in any worse shape than they're in now?
So it that you what you're saying is is a tried and true uh principle.
If they're gonna rip you anyway, at least tell the truth.
Exactly.
You know, you know, and and I'll tell you who was on the other day on your show I was listening, was uh uh Cheney, Liz Cheney.
Yeah.
I couldn't believe how easily she made those limp liberals look bad.
You know.
Too bad she's not a senator.
I'd like to see her question this uh uh this woman.
Well, Liz right now is focused on the foreign bullet uh aspects of the uh Obama administration, but I know what you're saying.
She's right.
She's right, but she's showing how it's done.
She's going on television and she's giving a uh class a tutorial in how not to accept the premises of the media and the left in these uh in these interviews.
Look, I don't want to dishearten you out there, Tom, but there is no indication I see that this attack dog you envision exists.
I don't see it.
I I I see.
You know what Joe Biden said shortly after Clarence Thomas was confirmed to the uh Supreme Court?
You don't?
Would you like to hear what Joe Biden said about Clarence Thomas shortly after he was confirmed to the U.S. Supreme Court?
Joe Biden said, I think the only reason Clarence Thomas is on a court is because he's black.
I don't believe he could have won had he been white.
The reason is I think it was a cynical ploy by President Bush.
So here once again, the sitting vice president.
Back in the early 90s when Clarence Thomas is nominated.
Go on, say he's only been nominated, he's only on a court because he's black.
He wouldn't make it if he's white.
Has anybody on our side said that about Sonia Sotomayor?
No.
Did Biden pay a price for no did Biden pay a price for any of the stupid things he says and does?
No, that's old Joe.
You know, that's just old Joe.
He's got this runaway mouth, he's kind of fun.
Fun old guy, Joe Joe.
It's a two-way street's a double standard out there, and there's no reason the double standard has to exist.
And by the way, do you remember Julian Malvo?
Don't confuse her with Susan Malvo.
Susan Malvo is or was uh Info Babe reporter at CNN.
Uh Julianne Malvo uh used to be a participant of a PBS version of the McLachlan group.
She is Julianne Nelvaux, runs a college.
What college?
I don't really care.
Don't waste your time looking it up.
If you knew it off the top of your head, fine and dandy.
Julianne Malvo once said of Clarence Thomas, I hope his wife feeds him a lot of eggs and bacon.
So he has an early heart attack and dies.
And the Libs laughed about it.
Oh yeah.
That was funny.
And when she was called on it some years later, she laughed about it.
Oh, you know, that's that's been thrown back in my face.
Gets away with it.
So Joe Biden, the only reason Thomas on the court's because he's white.
That's just a cynical ploy by President Bush.
But of course, the first female Hispanic on the court.
No way that's cynical by Barack Obama.
And gee, Julianne Melvaux, gee.
But another reason she got away with it is she's a black woman.
So she can say, Hope Clarence Thomas'wife feeds him a lot of eggs and bacon, high cholesterol, so he has a heart attack and dies.
Here's Alyssa in St. Louis.
Let's see you're next to the EIB network.
Great to have you here.
Hello.
Thanks so much.
My comment is, and I'm not going out of my way to try to disparage Sonia Sotomayor's uh compelling personal story.
But you know, she is not the only one that was raised by a single mother.
Um and I always it always sticks in my craw because I was raised by a single mother.
My father died when I was four years old, and my sister was one month old.
And my mother raised us on her own.
She still to this day hasn't remarried, but she did a great job.
And so I as you start thinking about, well, you know, Barack Obama, who knows?
I I don't know who I guess his grandparents raised him or his single mother or uh whatever.
But Bill Clinton was raised by a single mother.
I mean, for God's sakes, it seems like it's the norm.
More so than than this should create, you know, some some set of, you know, we all should in awe.
You know, you know, you you're gonna laugh at this, but I have been saying that uh coming from a normal nuclear uh family, two point eight kids and a mom and dad that stayed married can't hurt you in America today because you can't relate.
Right.
You you can't relate to most people.
Uh and uh then you can't have empathy on the uh on the court.
You know, that that's an you're so you're just you just fed up hearing these personal stories because it's it's no big deal to you.
It has nothing to do with her qualification.
Absolutely, and everybody has a personal story, and we can take anybody's personal story and make it sound compelling.
Because uh life is all about us is is you know, life is difficult.
Well for everybody.
You know, but you're you know you're exactly right.
Because nobody except the Kennedys are born with success.
That is correct.
Everybody's born Zilch.
You got nothing.
Everybody who's born Zilch to become successful does have a compelling story.
Even failures have a compelling story.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
That's why, you know, all I keep saying is we've got two events coming up down the road.
They are the biggies.
The election in 210 and the election in 212.
So while this stuff is important, and I love your idea that we gotta keep at this because it's the right thing to do, and it's yet another way to illustrate what Barack Obama is all around all is all about.
I am still listening.
I'm a conservative Republican, and I am still listening for somebody who is gonna speak for me.
And I st other than you, I haven't I haven't heard anybody yet uh that I think is speaking for me.
Not Colin Powell?
Oh, no, no, no.
No.
He to me he's on the other team.
No, no, no, no, no.
He he's the guy around whom we should rally.
That's what he's telling us.
He's the titular head of the Republican Party.
Yeah, I'm not hearing it.
Not speaking to me.
What about Tom Ridge?
No, no, no, no.
Uh Arlan Spector.
Oh my gosh.
Uh no.
No.
Okay.
Yeah, it's it's uh there it there like I was listening to you the other day and you talked about how, you know, leaders need to uh leaders need to sort of emerge.
They need to lead and you know, sort of rise up, rise to the surface.
And I think that's true, but sometimes I think some of our greatest leaders have not been people that I don't know, not been people.
I had, you know, speaking of this, I had somebody send me an email and said, you know, Rush, I know what you were trying to say.
Because we had a caller yesterday that said we need to pick the leaders.
The the people need to pick the leader.
And I said they emerge.
I mean, where do we go look?
But somebody somebody corrected me last night, and and this the the email that I received.
There's there is, I have to stipulate a certain uh relevance to this.
Yeah.
E mailer's point was that Reagan was chosen.
Reagan was an actor, and Reagan was a personal guy, and he had his kitchen cabinet, and they encouraged him.
Said, you've got to do this.
And he did and he didn't want to do it, but they got him on the GE theater where he was on television every night introducing the GE theater, and they turned him into a likable guy on TV because he was a likable guy.
And then he was uh you know, ran for Governor of California, did radio commentaries, but it's the old kitchen cabinet.
The the thing about that it would be against campaign laws today for someone to target a Reagan and bankroll him and bring him forth from the wilderness.
Well, I think they did that with Barack Obama.
I mean, uh it it does smack of sort of the smoky back room, but something's not something's off with that whole thing.
I know.
A lot of people think there's a wizard of Oz behind the screen, whoever's writing a teleprompter script.
Yeah.
Uh now I don't think that, but I I think that they did.
I I think that the power brokers in that party, you know, once he started doing okay, they just all coalesced.
I mean, that's that's to me.
Well, I take it further than that.
I think it was long before he started doing okay.
I think some wizard in the Democrat Party figured out that Barack Obama as the nominee, and Biden gave it away, by the way, when he said, Hey, you know, It's about time.
This is great.
We've got a clean, articulate black guy running for president in our party.
Right.
Right.
And that made Al Sharpton mad and everybody else, but I think whoever figured this out said we if we get Obama up there and write his words, get Axel around to write his words, nobody will have the guts to oppose him.
It's it's it was the first step.
It's an identical step to the way they're they're they're nominating Sonia Soto Mayor.
Don't criticize her.
You can't criticize her.
It's only going to anger people.
So uh look at McCain.
McCain was firing people from his campaign staff.
Right.
If they used Obama's middle name at a campaign rally, don't criticize Obama.
So somebody figured out that the uh the racial politics, minority politics had progressed to a point where there was so much guilt throughout America that no criticism of any minority candidate for president now the Supreme Court would be tolerated, and nobody and nobody had the guts to do it, and pretty much there wasn't any criticism of Obama during the campaign.
And and that is true.
I'm telling you, there is no criticism of this nature allowed at school, in school, in elementary school, in middle school, and high school, certainly at the university level.
That's right, political.
Keep our mouth shut.
Political correctness run amok.
Yeah.
Well, I look at Lisa, I have discovered you are yet another person who refuses to think like an oppressed minority.
You refuse to shut up.
It's good to have you on the squad.
Thanks very much for the phone call.
I appreciate it.
Folks had one of my cars.
I have I have some SUVs.
I don't drive them.
I have other people drive them.
No, I just I I like sedans.
I'm you know, I don't like a car where you need a stepladder to get in the damn thing.
At any rate, to each his own.
I have three of them, and the staff drives them and they service them and this sort of thing.
And BG products, which makes the best lubrication fluids for engines and transmissions.
Sponsored a program.
They they they wanted me to take uh one of the cars, just one of the SUVs into a service center that they supply products for.
You can't get BG products stuff in a retail outlet.
You have to go to a website and find out where a service station or a dealer maintenance shop is close to you.
It's only at those places where BG products products can be used.
So they they checked the fluid in the uh in the car, and they had it tested at their laboratories.
And they discovered in their lab that transmission fluid was contaminated.
There was levels of uh copper, iron, lead in the transmission.
It had stopped protecting the transmission.
They said you're facing a catastrophic failure here.
If you don't do something about it.
So they put BG products fluid in it, transmission fluid is brake fluid, oil um uh uh additives and so forth.
They offer the best synthetic transmission fluid service available, only lifetime protection plan in the industry.
And a lot of people are holding on to their cars because they don't know where the hell they can go to buy one anymore.
And they don't know what's gonna be for sale when they get there.
So if you're one of these holding onto your car, you know keeping the engine lubricated, the brakes, transmission, all that is crucial.
And here's an outfit that provides the only lifetime protection plan in the industry once you start using their products.
The website to find out where the nearest service center that uses BG products to you is BG Findashop.com.
Very simple.
BG Find a Shop dot com.
Just type your zip code in there to list all the service centers in your area.
It's that easy.
All right, here's that Columbus Ohio story, and it's also happening in Toledo, by the way.
It was a success story, the CNN story.
A success story the White House was eager to highlight earlier this year.
Obama attended a graduation of 25 police recruits, touting it as a victory for the federal stimulus package.
On March 6th in Columbus, President Obama touted the jobs the stimulus plan would save.
Without the money, the officers would have never hit the street.
With the money, 1.2 million dollars, they hit the street for a while.
But then after after the 1.2 million runs out to pay them, Columbus has to take over, and Columbus doesn't have the money.
Columbus police on Tuesday announced massive budget cuts that could mean hundreds Of layoffs, including the 25 stimulus cop jobs.
Among those who could lose their jobs, if voters reject the tax increase on the ballot, twenty-five new officers who shook the president's hands.
No other budget cuts are considered here.
No other budget?
Only tax increases can save today, Columbus.
Is that it?
How is this even a possibility?
The Messiah touched these men.
The Messiah declared these people saved.
Where's the stimulus?
Obama had a recovery plan.
What happened to?
How can this happen?
And same thing in Toledo.
Toledo police layoffs leading to gun buying is the story in Toledo.
They're laying the cops off.
Citizens are buying guns.
All right.
I have a question for you, moderates out there.
You moderates, we're we're told that any criticism.
In fact, the American thinker had a piece yesterday that if you're out there trying to persuade a liberal, the last thing you don't mention my name.
You mention my name and liberal will shut down.
Don't cite my show as where you heard a fact.
If it's true, it doesn't matter.
Liberals will shut down.
So you moderates, you are gonna go ape bananas.
If Republicans are critical, right?
Well, here's Roland Burris.
Here is a black Democrat appointed to the Senate by Rod Blagoyovich.
And the Democrat Party is trying to screw the guy, a person of color.
Here's the first of two sound bites.
But I didn't know anything about a pay-to-play, and I also knew that if I if I gave any contribution, or if I raise any money, then that would be a problem.
Why in the middle of the way?
Why in one phone call would you discuss a campaign contribution and the Senate seat?
No, because it's sounds like pay to play.
No, no, no, no.
That's what read the transcript.
What did I say?
I cannot contribute any money because of a conflict.
Also said in the transcript, it seemed like I'm trying to buy the seat.
Did you read the transcripts?
That's me why I want you all to read these.
Or Roland Burris, he's in the Senate.
The Democrats have never wanted Roland Burissa to have this seat.
And now that we've got the big distraction of Sonia Sotomayor, the Democrats are free to go after the guy again.
Isn't it interesting?
They have continued to go after this guy.
A judge released transcripts of tape, Burris talking about funds going to Blogo.
Burris never sent a check, never threw a fundraiser.
No matter.
This black man is being investigated.
How come moderates are not mad at the Democrat Party for going after a person of color?
How can the Democrats get away with this?
He was appointed.
He is in the Senate.
He's old took Obama's seat.
Black for black.
Democrats look at things that way.
They're trying to destroy Roland Burris.
This ought to make moderates mad, right?
The Democrats going after a black guy.
Here's the second soundbite.
Because nobody was asked.
It was never asked.
But at the same time, at first your affidavit was no, and then your affidavit was yes, there were conversations.
No, no, no.
Please check the affidavit.
You said in the past that you had no conversations with Bulgoy or anyone from the Big Goytion.
Please check the affidavit.
That's what I'm asking you.
Please check, read affidavit one.
Read it.
Have you all read it?
Have you read it?
Have you read it?
We've read it.
No, no, no.
Have you read it?
Have you read it?
Thank you.
I want to know where is Colin Powell.
Where are the Republican moderates defending this man as Democrats play the race card against Roland Burris?
Where are the Colin Powells and the Tom Ridges calling this a race-based witch hunt?
Where are our Republican moderates?
Saying this is unseemly behavior.
For the Democrats to take the occasion of the distraction of the nomination of Sotomayor.
To finally get rid of a black guy in the Senate they never wanted there in the first place.
Where are all moderates reacting angrily to this?
Gow, dang it, I forgot to do something here that I promised I was going to do today, so I'm going to put it atop of the stack for tomorrow.
Eight health risks in your own backyard.
Designed to keep your kids inside.
But they don't mention the stuff inside, it'll kill them too.
So I'll do that tomorrow.
We'll look forward to it.
Thanks for being with us today, folks.
