Time Text
And welcome back.
It's Rush Limbaugh behind a golden EIB microphone.
Now documented to be almost always right, 99.1% of the time.
Live from the Southern Command in Sunny South Florida.
It's open line.
Friday!
When we go to the phones, you can talk about whatever you want.
So the content portion of the program when we go to the phones is all yours.
I dare say there is no other major media figure in the world would take this kind of risk.
But I love you people, and that's why I'm willing to do it.
Telephone number 800-282-2882, the email address L Rushball at EIB net.com.
I'm gonna one more time.
I'm gonna do this insurance lesson.
And it's time to move on.
Twenty-one years here, folks.
And even I get tired of repeating things.
But before that, I owe Bud in Port St. Lucy chance for him to finish his phone call because I shortchanged him on time.
Bud, I got a question.
How's supply of chicken McNuggets up there lately?
I tell you, I I got this uh thing from the RNC, which has made my blood boil.
You know how they send the questionnaires asking for money, which I've can you know contributed to them in the past.
It says, which part of the Obama agenda do you most forcibly oppose?
And they don't mention Obamacare, cap and tax, illegal immigration, the stimulus bill, the bailouts, the cash for clunkers, virtually everything.
What the hell's on the list?
Let me tell you what's on the list.
What's on the list, massive tax hikes?
Well, that's important, but forty percent of people don't even pay any taxes.
I think more people are upset about Obamacare and ta and ta cap and tax than massive tax sex.
I could be wrong, but what else is on the list?
Okay.
Left wing activist judges.
Look how they treated soda mayor.
Softball questions.
What else is on the list?
Legalized partial birth abortion.
Oh important, but I don't think it's much as much as important as the things I mentioned.
This is pathetic.
Forcing troops to surrender.
I don't know what they mean by that, except maybe abandoning Iran and Iraq.
I don't know.
No, no, no.
I mean, I can have to do that.
No, no, no, that that means that's a CIA investigation uh where what really is going on with the CIA investigation, we talked about it yesterday, is the holders not gonna charge anybody gonna do the investigation, and they're gonna hope that some transnational court does it uh indict our guys.
That's what that's all about.
But look, Bud.
That's that's that's disturbing because they're out there trying to raise money with this list of the most dangerous things Obama's doing, and they don't even list the most dangerous things.
Exactly.
It's making my blood boil.
Do they really think I'm gonna send them money now?
It boy, this wise me up.
I can't believe that nation helped get up in fact and illegal immigration.
All right, all right, dial it back.
You are a member of the RNC.
Of course they expect you to send money because they sent you the request.
But you you understand what I'm saying.
They're missing the boat.
Oh, you understand.
Well, understand.
What's new about the Republican Party these days not getting it?
I know it's I'm a little surprised that you're surprised.
But I want to do something for you.
If you want it, I want to give you a select comfort bed of your choice.
Yes.
Well, if you don't want it, I mean Yes, yes, fine.
All right, because you sound tired to me.
I mean, you sound I know you're worked up, but you sound tired.
It's like you're not sleeping well.
I'm not.
I'm not.
Well, this'll help.
Well, that's fantastic.
Okay, good.
Now you hang on, and uh Mr. Snerdley is gonna get all of your vital information plus the name of your kids and grandkids.
We're just kidding.
And that way we'll be able to be in touch with you and uh and get you in touch with the select comfort people to pick up the bed that you want.
Thank you.
And remember this is something Ted Kennedy would have loved.
That's true.
Oh, and by the way, I don't know if you're aware of this.
Did you hear because I knew a f I used to live in Massachusetts before I got smart and moved to Florida, but a friend of mine there knew the guy who pulled her out of the car, and supposedly there was no water in her lungs.
She died of asphyxiation, not drowning.
Yeah, that's right.
There was a little air pocket that she tried to uh in the rear of the car was sticking up, and she got she tried to get the last drop of air from the back window.
That's where, yeah, I I'd heard that too.
Well, they didn't print it.
That's for sure.
Well, yeah, I mean, it's a Ted Kennedy, uh, is a guy we can all relate to, they say.
And all identify with.
I've been trying so hard so long to get through to talk to you.
This is like a real joy for me.
It really is, because it's people like you that are bringing these issues up.
You and Glenn and the other Turk show hosts, and the American people themselves that are fighting Obamacare.
I'm so mad at these people for sending me this thing.
Hey, Bud, there aren't any other talk show hosts.
You're right.
Just kidding.
You're right.
Just kidding.
I'm in a flippant mood, not very much sleep last night, heading on vacation tomorrow.
Uh so I'm just being fair and balanced.
Now don't hang up, bud, because Snurley's got to get your information here.
That Obama's on vacation this week, and I thought to be fair and balanced, I should go next week.
So I'm gonna give Bud the select comfort bed of his choice, the sleep number bed by Select Comfort.
Perfect for couples.
It really is.
You have a sleep number, you can dial whatever firmness or softness you want on your side, and uh the other person can do the same thing on their side, and it it really will improve your sleep.
87% of participants in the test fell asleep faster without anesthesia.
And experienced deeper sleep.
And you won't find these sleep number beds at an ordinary bed store.
You have to go to a select comfort sleep number store, and they've got a huge sale, biggest sale of the year going on.
Every bed's on sale through Labor Day.
Savings from a hundred dollars to a thousand dollars, queen mattresses starting at just five hundred ninety-nine bucks, call one eight hundred get a bed.
This is my bed, folks.
I use it.
1800 get a bed, get more information, they give a free DVD with complete details.
And a $50 thank you gift card with any purchase over $100.
There's some restrictions apply on that, but the number again is 1800 get a bed.
Now, two emails.
The two I printed out.
Dear Rush, please don't be an O'Reilly here.
You totally missed Rebecca's point.
It was that HMO's insurance have blown the price of coverage out of the park by selling one size fits all policies to employers and having to dramatically increase their bureaucracy to handle a load.
This is why folks don't think they should have to pay anything.
I'm 62 years old.
I can remember what health care was like before HMOs, which we have to have thanks to Mr. Kennedy.
That's from Albuquerque.
Here's the next one.
Rush.
The insurance companies are already doing all the things we are fearful of government control plan doing, controlling payments to providers of what's covered and what's not.
Many of us want to know what specific steps can be taken to take control away from the insurance companies and return it directly to the patients and providers.
Very simple.
Pay for it yourself.
It's very if you don't like the insurance company, screw it now.
You're gonna say, but the cost is too high.
Well, yeah, it is, but we're not gonna get the cost down until you start dealing with the the doctor directly, like you deal with a hotel directly or the automobile dealership directly, or whatever else you buy.
Insurance companies, folks, are very simple.
Insurance companies are actuaries.
They calculate the odds of risk.
And then they compute the cost of covering that risk if you want to buy insurance from them.
That's what they do.
They calculate the odds of risk, and then they compute the cost of covering the risk.
Now, the more, and this is what you're misunderstanding.
The more government forces insurance companies to insure, the more the risk goes up.
It's just simple.
You think the insurance companies are operating free and independent.
The government's telling we've had insurance agents call here, and I know them.
We've had people call here, and I've uh other people have told me that working insurance business, they can't sell the policies they want to sell.
The government tells them what they have to insure.
Either the federal government or state governments.
There's so many mandates now in health care the insurance companies have to ensure, and if they're gonna have to insure hangnails, I'm telling you, everybody's gonna get a hangnail.
If they're gonna have to insure things that everybody's gonna get, then by God, folks, it's gonna cost everybody a lot of money.
They already pay out 85 to 90% of uh of their claims, and government doesn't come close to doing this.
So the more government forces insurance companies to insure, the more the risk goes up, because they got to pay out all these things that normally they wouldn't, and then that that's just gonna drive the cost up.
You're looking at the wrong middleman here when you want to get rid of the insurance companies.
You've got to wake up on this.
And I want you to think about this too.
And I I this is this is from my program, July 22nd.
I'm gonna repeat this.
What health insurance insures.
A little quick question.
What does health insurance insure?
Not a trick question.
If you think health insurance ensures your health, you are wrong.
Health insurance does not ensure your health.
So then what's it for?
You see, health insurance cannot possibly ensure your health.
In fact, health care insurance, formerly called medical insurance, is merely an instrument of neutralizing risk.
Financial risk, that is, not health risks.
It was brought about by a need to insure a family's assets against a dread disease requiring care so expensive, it will wipe the family out financially.
As a strictly financial planning endeavor, the issue never seemed to be discussed in terms of being a right or in terms of compassion, but medical insurance as a component of financial planning has now morphed into health care as a right for everybody in the new political parlance.
Now, not only is the insurance a right, but the insurance ought to be free, a lot of people think, and it ought to cover everything from hangnails, routine care visits to erectile dysfunction to ADHD to addictamies.
People want health insurance for adictomies for crime.
If you want to add a dictomy, pay for it, friends.
Do not ask your neighbors to turn you into a guy when you're a woman.
If you want an adictomy, pay for it.
But insurance is in San Francisco, they are required to cover things like this.
It's no more practical to have health insurance, to pay for prescription drugs and routine doctor visits than it is to expect your auto insurance to pay for your oil changes and your tire rotations.
This is C. Edmund Wright at the AmericanFigure.com, who we also quoted earlier today.
There's a lot of lot of brilliance out there, but everybody, you know, government growth, the encroachment on liberty is a very slow process.
That's why you don't see it all the time.
It's only when something massive like this health care business comes up that people go, whoa, that's too much.
This is the famous overreach.
Cap and trade is overreach.
Health care is overreached, the stimulus was overreached.
All of these things are Obama's overreach.
Now people go, oh my God, what's happening?
But folks, what they're doing now, they've done for the last 50 years.
They've just done it incrementally, and they've done it under the guise of compassion.
We are in this health care mess because of 50 years of slow but steady government intrusion and government growth.
And if you think the insurance companies are free market players out there deciding what they want to do on their own when it comes to health coverage, you got another thing coming.
They are told what to do.
For crying out loud, the guy got it right.
Ted Kennedy created the HMO.
And now Ted Kennedy, before he died, was out there running them down.
It is people in the government who haven't the slightest idea how to run any business who are creating all these rules and regulations.
And then they create these rules and regulations that gin up hatred in you for the insurance company because you don't understand the government's the guilty party here.
And then Obama very craftily starts demonizing the insurance companies, and then I start getting phone calls from people like Christina Rebecca, who've bought it.
The more you make an insurance company cover, the more their risk goes up, and all they do is monetize their risk.
They're not insuring your health.
They can't.
You can't.
What you're insuring is that you won't be destroyed financially if you get a dread disease, but you're not going to be destroyed financially with a standard checkup.
You're not going to be destroyed financially if you break a leg.
It's just people have these wild expectations.
The minute the Democrats started talking about health care as a right.
I mean, that was the death knell.
Because there is no right to good health.
And I'll tell you something else, something cannot be a right if the government can take it away from you.
And if and they can take away your health care.
That's what the Obama plan's all about is taking away health care from certain people.
Now it's time to understand here.
I'm I'm not defending the insurance companies.
I'm sure that there's charlatans in everything.
But you're blaming the wrong people here when you start talking about the high cost of health care in this country.
You get the government out of it, and you watch what happens to prices.
You watch how they come down.
It couldn't be done overnight because we didn't get here overnight.
That's why everybody talks about the the the beauty of health savings accounts.
Letting you have what you're spending on health care already in an account that for the year is it must be used on health.
You can't spend it on anything else because then you screw it up.
But whatever's left over at the end of the year, then you get to keep that.
And next year, the same amount that you would be taxed to pay for health care.
That goes into your account, and you buy your health care coverage, and guess what?
You're gonna go shopping for it.
And you're gonna try to find the cheapest coverage for the everyday stuff that you need.
And you're not gonna go to the doctor every time you do now because you think it's not costing you anything other than your little copay, and you'll probably start buying your own prescriptions except except the really expensive stuff.
But we've gotten to the point now where people call here.
Hey, we're gonna three point yet.
And a friend of mine makes too much money to qualify for free prescription.
Makes too much money to qualify for pre-prescriptions.
Where the hell does she think she lives?
She makes too much money to qualify for free prescriptions.
She's mad at somebody for this.
Make too much money to qualify.
That's like me saying that I make too much money to qualify for a free airplane.
Damn it, I gotta buy it myself.
This is not fair.
I gotta take a brief time out.
I don't want to have to repeat this, folks.
I do not.
Uh, one of my all-time top ten favoritoons.
Miguel.
Or no, this is one de los ríos, and um Memphis.
Yeah, I got a note from the uh North Carolina mistress.
You know the caller from Port St. Lucy, Bud, and he had this thing from the RNC uh fundraising thing asking for people to check off which Obama policy do you find most objectionable?
The RNC sent that out during the presidential campaign of last year.
And uh uh it could well be, but if you're listening, it could well be.
You are in sort Port St. Lucy, it could well be that you just got something mailed last year.
It might not be the current uni you uh uh because that is unbelievable that the RNC would send out a fundraiser and not put Obamacare as something you oppose most.
So look it, we know how much in debt the post office is, and we know that Port St. Lucy may be hard to find even for them.
So that thing might have been mailed last October.
So you should check that.
Kathy in uh Potomac, Maryland, welcome to the EIB network.
Hello.
Oh, freedom loving ditto is Professor Limbaugh.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Before I get to what I called about, can I just give you my theory about Hillary and Bill's excellent adventure in Bermuda?
No, I'd love to hear it.
I think they're trying for a second conception, and that's Hillary's run against Obama in 2012.
You got no, no, no, with conception of what?
Well, you were talking about how they were there for the conception of their daughter early on.
And by the way, by the way, a political consultant, I don't remember who, I know it wasn't Morris.
A political consultant advised them to have a baby to get their poll numbers up.
Well, this is gonna be their new baby, her right Obama.
But you're not talking about the Clintons conceiving another child.
No, figuratively speaking.
It will be her campaign against Obama in twenty twelve.
That's an interesting theory.
I know the Clintons are lurking out there.
They're never going.
I mean, they're like the pig flu.
Uh they're just they're just out there.
And and they do.
Yeah, the Clintons they do cause more damage to minorities and minorities just don't know it.
Right just Just like the pig flu.
All right, what was your call about?
Okay.
Well, this is what I call about.
I recently finished reading Alinsky's book, Rules for Radicals, which seems to really be the playbook for the Obama administration.
It is.
And there are three short quotes I just wanted to highlight.
The first is he says the organizers' job is to get people pregnant with hope and a desire for change.
And when people read this book, they'll see hope and change is a theme throughout the book.
Yep.
Second of all, I was struck by how cynical Alinsky was and how he must have been searching for meaning in his own life, because he wrote that people are in a desperate search for personal identity.
Let people know at least you are alive.
And so my guess is that Obama was attracted to this because he must have felt growing up abandoned by his father and often his mother.
And his brother living in a hut and really not knowing where he's from.
Yeah, it's a good point.
Searching for his own identity.
Now, third, this is the last one I wanted to bring up.
Alinsky had an absolute contempt for the middle class.
While he was attempting to organize them for his own objectives.
He wrote, our rebels have contemptuously rejected the values and way of life of the middle class.
So Rush, fundamentally, I don't think Obama, like Olinsky, really understands the middle class.
It's dreams and aspirations.
Get on right about that.
He doesn't understand the middle class.
He holds every that in contempt.
He's an elitist.
Alinsky was an elitist.
This book is all about how to use those people and manipulate them to get power for yourself while they think you're doing something for them.
That's right, a man, a legend, a prophet, a beloved figure and way of life.
800-282-2882, if you'd like to be on the program.
There's a column today by uh Eugene Robinson, who's a columnist of the Washington Post, to be Washington Post for those of you in Rio Linda.
He also is an MSNBC commentator, and I'm not going to read a whole thing.
A whole thing is absurd.
We'll uh link to it at Rushlimbaugh.com, but I I uh I just want to read this excerpt.
The cause of his life, however, became health care, changing the unacknowledged system of rationing under which we apportion care according to an individual's ability to pay.
There are those who believe that if Kennedy had not been ailing, President Obama's attempted health care reform might be further along.
I doubt that, given the Republican Party's strategy of intransigence and fear mongering.
Hey, Eugene, the Republicans can't stop it.
But we sorely miss Kennedy's moral clarity.
He believed our nation has the responsibility to ensure that every American has the right to affordable health care.
Perhaps his life is an eternal prince.
Taught him that happiness and salvation lie in sacrificing self-interest for the greater good.
Good lord.
Eugene, do you realize what hypocrisy you have written here?
Ted Kennedy sacrificing self-interest for the greater good.
Ted Kennedy got health care for himself that he will not provide in his bill or Obama's bill for anybody else.
In his circumstances at his age.
Ted Kennedy wanted no part of Obamacare.
Ted Kennedy wouldn't have survived 15 months after his diagnosis with Obamacare.
Eugene.
Perhaps his life is an eternal prince, taught him that happiness and salvation lie in sacrificing self-interest for the greater good.
No, you need let me tell you what he learned.
He learned to use the government to take money from people at work, to give money to people that don't work, and that got him out of all the dirt that he got in, like the waitress sandwich stuff and all that.
That that that was his redemption.
These people are over the edge.
They just it's just hard to keep up with.
I've been meaning to do this story all week.
And I keep forgetting it because I keep putting it aside, but I'm gonna do it now.
And I mentioned it earlier this week.
I have a letter here, which details Senator Kennedy's offer to help the Soviet Union defeat Reagan's efforts to build up the nuclear deterrent in Europe.
It was unearthed by a Times of London reporter in the 1990s after the KGB files were opened.
It didn't get much attention until the publication of a book by Paul Kengler called The Crusader, Ronald Reagan and the Fall of Communism.
But even the actual text of the letter, which is in the book's appendix, uh page 317 to 320 has gotten a short shrift.
And I've here's I I have the KGB letter here on Senator Ted Kennedy.
I uh I got it from Sweetness and Light.com.
They posted this back in December of 2006.
Ted Kennedy offered to meet with Juri Andropov, who at the time was the Communist Party leader in the Soviet Union to try to help him sabotage Reagan's efforts to put deterrent missiles in Europe.
Now we're hearing all week about how Kennedy and Reagan got along so well.
You've heard that.
You've seen them.
Oh, yes, and we need to learn from Kennedy as conservatives.
We need to learn from Kennedy and the the way he behaved during the era of Reagan.
Yeah, he's out sabotaging his own country.
In the spring 1983, during perhaps the tensest moment in the cold war since the Cuban Missile Crisis, Kennedy sent a message to Yuri Andropov.
This would be the same Yuri Andropov, who had been the director of the KGB and had played central roles in uh both the crushing of the 56th Hungarian Revolution and the suppression of the 68 Prague Spring, and Yuri Andropov was one of the Russians that leaders, Soviet leaders that Reagan refused to meet with.
He said, Can't he keep dying on me?
It makes no sense to meet these guys.
Gorbachev was the first Soviet leader he met with.
So Kennedy's point was that it was Reagan that threatened world peace, not the Soviets, not Andropov.
And Kennedy offered to help Andropov contain Reagan by manipulating American opinion.
And here's the letter.
I uh it's it's I've on 910 May of this year's, and this is the letter to Comrade Y. V. Andropov.
It's a special importance Committee on State Security of the USSR's KGB, KGB letter to Andropov, Comrade Y. V. Andropov.
On 910 May of this year, Senator Edward Kennedy's close friend and trusted confidant, Jay Tony, was in Moscow.
The Senator charged Tunney to convey the following message through confidential contacts to the General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party, the Soviet Union, Y. Andropov.
Senator Kennedy, like other rational people, is very troubled by the current state of Soviet American relations.
Events are developing such that this relationship coupled with the general state of global affairs will make the situation even more dangerous.
The main reason for this is Reagan's belligerence and his firm commitment to deploy new American middle-range nuclear weapons within Western Europe.
According to Kennedy, this current threat is due to President's refusal to engage any modification on his politics.
He feels his domestic standing has been strengthened because of the well-publicized improvement of the economy.
Inflation's been greatly reduced.
Production levels are increasing, as is overall business activity.
For these reasons, interest rates will continue to decline.
Kennedy's worried about all this.
He said, we've got to stop Reagan somehow because he's getting popular here.
Thank you.
So we'll link to it at Rush Limbaugh.com.
But I've done, you know, there are a lot of things that people are forgetting here, and a lot of things are being made up about how well Kennedy got along with uh with Reagan.
Yeah, Kennedy never got personal, never got for crying out loud.
Trying to work with the Grand Puba of the Soviet Union to sabotage The protection of Western Europe against Soviet nuclear missiles.
And I remember in 1990 when these KGB files were opened.
I remember I didn't read Kenger's book, but I remember the story.
And I was amazed how little play that uh that it got Ronald in Oh, a 15-year-old from Hazleton, Pennsylvania.
Ronald, welcome to the program.
Hello, sir.
Mega Ditto, Frush.
Thank you.
Um, I've been listening to your show for about uh three years now, and uh I start listening to you because uh my grandfather uh mainly told me about your program, and I loved it the first time I heard it.
Thank you, sir.
Yeah, you're welcome.
Um it made me love the conservative values because conservatives tell the truth.
I see what values conservatives stand for when they get into office, they get there by telling the truth, and that's what makes a real leader, not like these liberal characters like Obama, uh Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reed, and uh all those liberal people in the uh government.
You are very wise.
Who uh tell lies who tell lies and apologize to our enemies like Obama does.
And um I just want to tell you that I'm uh active uh young conservative in my hometown of uh Hazleton here.
And uh what I'm doing is uh about about on April 15th, I went to uh a tea party we had here in Hazleton, Pennsylvania, and uh a man spoke, I don't I don't know if you might have heard of him, his name is Dr. Alan Keys.
Of course, I I I didn't I didn't know he spoke at this one, but I've heard of Dr. Keyes, of course.
Yeah, well, um I heard him, and he is a true leader, and I I picture him as a true conservative, and he should be in the White House right now, because he speaks from his heart, not like a teleprompter like these liberal characters.
Um, anyway, me listening to you made me made me a conservative, and um I'm I had rallies in my uh hometown of Hazleton two about two weeks ago.
All right, now this is very important, Ronald.
I w I want to take the occasion of your call to make a point because it's it's very conservatism needs action.
Um, and that's what's great about what's happening with the town halls at the tea parties that you're going to.
Uh it's not enough just to tell people, oh, the left is bad, the Democrats are bad.
Look at what they're doing.
It conservatism is uh uh more than just an argument.
It's more than just a debating point.
It is a fundamental way the nation was founded.
And uh you getting involved like this at your age is absolutely great.
You're joining millions of others who are just fed up and not gonna take this anymore.
Uh because they over it always happens when the left overreaches like this.
They always do better off if they just go incremental.
But Obama, big crisis in the economy, saw a big opportunity that thought uh he could get all this stuff in before people knew what was happening, and he's still gonna do it.
Still gonna try.
I don't care how they redress Obamacare, it's still gonna be government health care.
And it need not happen.
A quick time out.
Thank you very much for the phone call.
We'll be back and continue wrapping up.
I got two amazing sound bites from a town hall found at Bright Bart TV from Diane Watson, California Congressman, last night in Los Angeles, coming up.
By the way, folks, you remember when I said way back in uh January, even before the Immaculation that I hoped Obama failed, and you remember the excrement storm that erupted from that.
Well, Ted Kennedy not only wanted Ronaldus Magnus to fail, Ted Kennedy worked with our enemies to make it happen.
That is an important point.
Have you joined the Heritage Foundation yet?
Have you yet gone to look at WW.askheritage.org?
You probably have.
But if you haven't, you need to do it.
Every staff member at the Heritage Foundation has a common mantra, big government doesn't work.
And they are posting some of the smartest, most relevant bits of analysis with no ego and nothing else thrown in.
It's just straight facts and figures.
They are self-professed believers in smaller government.
And whereas you may have conservative instincts, the stuff, and I use them for show prep, the stuff that you'll find at Askheritage.org will tell you why you think what you think, and it'll help you persuade others.
It'll make you more conversant in the subject.
If you believe in small government, become a member of the Heritage Foundation.
There's 25 bucks, and they're over 500,000 members, and it helps sustain them in the work that they do.
Just go to Askheritage.org.
Your liberties, our liberties, too important.
Especially now, just to go about life as normal.
That's getting involved.
Any number of ways to do it.
Askheritage.org.
Diane Watson last night in Los Angeles, a town hall meeting.
And we have two sound bites.
Here's the first.
You might have heard their philosophical leader.
I think his name is Rush Limbaugh.
And he said early on, I hope that he fails.
Do you know what that means?
If the president, your commander in chief, fails, America fails.
Wrong.
Now when a senator says that this will be his Waterloo, and we all know what happened at Waterloo, then we have him and he fails.
Do we want a fail state?
Call the United States.
So remember, they are spreading fear, and they're trying to see that the first president who looks like me fails.
And I want you to know people look at the United States as a country that has changed its way and has elected someone from Kenya and Kansas.
I'll put it like that.
What?
Elected somebody.
She's a birther.
She's a birther.
She's elected if somebody from Kenya and Kansas.

And she said, I hope Limbaugh fell that I hope Obama fails.
Yeah, I do, Diane.
Obama failing saves the United States of America.
But there's one more to go.
One more sound bite to go to put this in perspective.
It was just mentioned to be by our esteemed speaker.
Did anyone say anything about the Cuban health system?
And let me tell you, before you say, oh, it's coming, you need to go down there and see what Fidel Castro put in place.
And I want you to know now, you can think whatever you want to about Fidel Castro.
But he was one of the brightest leaders I have ever met.
And you know, the Cuban Revolution that kicked out the wealthy, Sheikh Aveira did that.
And then after they took over, they went out among the population to find someone who could lead this new nation.
And they found well, just leave it there.
An attorney by the name of Fidel Castro.
Did you know that that Che Guevara, Castro's mining his own business smoking cigars, and Che Guevara, after getting rid of the rich people, found Castro to lead the revolution.
And a health care plant.
This is a member of Congress, Diane Watson.
She's a good friend of Maxine Waters, by the way.
And she's from Los Angeles.
Cuban.
Well no, Snerdley, there was some applause.
I know it wasn't a lot, but there was some applause.
One guy applauded at my name.
I my audience, uh, actually, her audience might actually like me, uh, there wasn't much of a reaction.
This took place at the Ward African Methodist Episcopal Church last night in Los Angeles.
I said like the Wellstone Memorial.
Do these people sound like they live in the same country we live in.
You know who else wanted to go to Cuba?
Fight with uh Fidel.
