Time Text
This is funny.
People watching the program on the Ditto Cam today.
You know, when the top of the hour break comes, I stand up and I leave the room.
And I saw the pants.
They think I'm wearing pants today.
Oh my God, those Lily Pulitzer?
Lily Pulitzer?
Are those Harley?
What a what would uh folks there?
Loudmouth Golf shorts.
Like the ones on my website, but this is a different uh different different style.
I mean, I've got 10 or 12 of them, and I've I've uh here, I'll stand up again and show you.
These are these are what?
What's that?
No, no, no.
These are these are these are full-fledged.
These are uh I guess you'd want to get Argyle.
Uh these are green, white and yellow, argyle, and standing up as you see them.
But folks, something you you need to know.
When in Florida, we show up here in shorts, live from the Southern Command in sunny South Florida.
It's open line Friday.
These are just uh these are just naturally loud.
Open line Friday.
Coco, put put the golf pictures back up there because uh people are just now noticing this.
Where did you get those?
And some people say, God, those are ugly.
Would you how can you possibly?
Others love them.
Coco, put the uh put the Hawaii golf pictures back up.
People at uh missed them.
And if you can't, Coco, grab a still shot.
You know, I'm gonna stand up.
Grab it, grab a still shot here.
There you go, and put that picture up.
So they can see the repertoire.
Open line Friday.
This is where you own the contents of the program uh when we go to the phones.
That's not the case on Thursday, Monday through Thursday.
It's all about what I care about, but on Friday, whatever you want to talk about's cool.

Democrat leaders are planning to vote early next week to admonish Republican Representative Joe Wilson if he does not apologize on the House floor for yelling you lie at President Barack Obama.
Brendan Daly, a spokesman for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, said Democrat Party leaders decided at a meeting yesterday that they will likely move forward with a resolution of disapproval against Wilson absent.
Another apology.
Wilson apologized to Obama after the incident on Wednesday, but he has refused requests to apologize to the House.
Democrats say the insult clearly violated House rules of decorum.
Now, back on December 5th of 2004, on Meet the Press during an interview, Harry Reid called George Bush a liar and then stood by the comment.
Tim Russert, when the president talked about Yucca Mountain and moving a nation's nuclear waste there, you were very, very, very strong in your words.
You said President Bush is a liar.
He betrayed Nevada, he betrayed the country.
Is that rhetoric appropriate?
Senator Reed.
Well, I don't know if that rhetoric's appropriate.
That's how I feel, and that's how I felt.
From Tim Greve via 2005 Rolling Stone magazine sit-down interview.
Um Rolling Stone, you've called Bush a loser.
He did that to a bunch of school kids, if you'll recall out of Nevada.
Harry Reid says, Yeah, I called him a loser and a liar.
And you you apologize for the loser comment.
Harry Reid, but I never have for the liar comment, have I. And of course, let's not forget the first Joe Wilson.
The first Joe Wilson, Joe Plame, came to fame by saying Bush lied during a State of the Union speech.
Of course, he didn't say that right away.
He waited until they didn't find any weapons of mass destruction in Iraq five months or months after the invasion, but uh before that, Joe Plame had insisted that Saddam had weapons of mass destruction, and Joe Wilson Plain made a career and a fortune out of calling Bush a liar.
John Kerry even gave him a page on his campaign website, honesty.com.
And now they want to censure the Republican Joe Wilson.
Meanwhile, the media is slowly confirming that Joe Wilson was right.
Obamacare Will cover illegal immigrants.
The Democrats have voted two times already to block proof of citizenship from the health care bill.
This, despite the fact that 83% of Americans say that proof of citizenship ought to be required to get government health aid.
Now, even the uh state-controlled media is being forced to report Obama was dishonest.
In his address to the nation, Fox News, among three House committees to pass bills for health reform, only one expressly bans federal funding for providing health coverage to illegals.
The Congressional Research Service has indicated that indeed the bills that are before Congress would include illegal aliens.
Wilson said, I think this is wrong.
Indeed, the nonpartisan Congressional Research Service study found the House health care bill does not restrict illegal immigrants from receiving health care coverage.
New York Post also fact checked the president, discovered he was not honest with the American people.
They're going out of their way at the state-controlled media to avoid all of this.
The real issue here is not that Joe Wilson called Obama a liar.
The real issue is that Obama was lying.
The real issue is that the President of the United States was lying every time he opened his mouth practically during that speech to a joint session of Congress on Wednesday night.
Rasmussen has released a poll.
it's interesting.
If we are to believe this, there can be no conclusion other than we are a conservative country.
All right.
Progressive is becoming a more of a dirty word, but all political labels except being like Ronald Reagan are falling into disfavor with many U.S. voters, according to a new Rasmussen National Phone survey.
Liberal is still the worst and remains the only political description that is viewed more negatively than positively.
Being like Reagan is still the most positive thing you can say about a candidate.
Just 15% of voters say they view the description of a candidate as politically liberal as positive.
And that's down four points from last November.
41% see it as a negative description.
That's up five points in the earliest survey.
42% say it's somewhere in between.
again.
Now, aware of their low ideological ratings, political liberals have shifted in a recent times to calling themselves progressives, but that name too has begun to lose its luster.
32% now consider it a positive to describe a candidate as politically progressive, but that's down from 40% after the last election.
Twenty-seven percent see progressive as a negative label, up from sixteen percent.
November 37% said they had a positive opinion of a candidate described as politically conservative, but only 32% feel that way now.
Even moderate is uh a bit more in disfavor these days.
Thirty-five percent say that moderate is a positive political description, down from 40 percent, but liberal is the least positive description.
And that is why we need to never stop calling these people liberals.
That's who they are.
Being like Ronald Reagan is the one political description that has not changed.
Even though some in his own party have suggested that Republican candidates should distance themselves from Reagan.
In November, 43% had a positive opinion of a candidate compared to Reagan, and 41% still feel that way now.
Twenty-five percent view it as a negative political description compared to twenty-six percent in the previous survey.
31% say being like Reagan somewhere in between a positive and a negative.
In Wall Street Journal column last fall, Scott Rasmussen noted that President Obama won the White House by campaigning like Ronald Reagan.
The downturn in the views of all other ideological labels is notable since the November findings were roughly the same as those in July 2007 after a Democrat presidential debate, in which Hillary Clinton insisted she would rather be called a progressive than a liberal.
Remember, liberals can never be honest with you about who they are or what they want to do.
And that speech to The school kids that Obama gave.
What day was that?
Uh Tuesday?
The speech that Obama gave to the school kids.
That was a Reagan conservative speech, and that's why I was so outraged by it because nobody believes he means it.
The group Acorn has fired two employees who were seen on hidden camera video giving tax advice to a man posing as a pimp and a woman who pretended to be a prostitute.
Fox News is the only television outlet to run the video.
They started yesterday morning.
Nowhere else in the media.
And I want you to listen to CNN's story on the firing of these two Acorn workers in Baltimore.
Two employees at the Baltimore, Maryland branch of the liberal community organizing group Acorn were caught on tape allegedly.
I played the audio for you yesterday.
There was nothing alleged about this, allegedly offering advice to a pair posing as a pimp and a prostitute on setting up a prostitution ring and evading the IRS.
The video footage, which has been edited and goes to black in some areas, was recorded and posted online Thursday by James O'Keefe, a conservative activist.
He was joined by another conservative, Hannah Giles, who posed as the prostitute in the filmmaker's undercover sting.
Calls to Acorn's Baltimore offices were not immediately returned Thursday.
Local spokeswoman told the AP that both employees seen in the video were fired, but I would like to uh see proof of this.
So this is CNN's tape, a take on the Acorn tape.
Well, you gotta give them credit for at least mentioning it out there.
But uh they use allegedly and alleged uh see what we're not supposed to believe our own lying eyes.
We're not supposed to see our own eyes.
This is just another dirty conservative trick.
Just another trick.
How to embarrass poor black people at Acorn.
Uh, by the way, one day after two Acorn officials in Baltimore were fired for offering to help a man and a woman posing as a pimp and a prostitute to engage in a child prostitution and a series of tax crimes.
Another secretly shot videotape has surfaced.
It's on the it's on the biggovernment.com website, Andrew Breitbart's website, Biggovernment.com.
Another secretly shot videotape is surfaced that shows the same couple getting similar advice from Acorn officers in Washington.
The new video tape, which was shot on July 25th, shows Acorn staffers explaining to the pair how they can hide the woman's professed work, prostitution, and get a loan that'll help them establish a brothel, a whorehouse.
James O'Keefe, 25-year-old independent filmmaker, posed as the pimp while visiting the Acorn office accompanied by 20-year-old Hannah Giles, who posed as the prostitute.
On a videotape, they are seen receiving guidance to establish the woman as the sole proprietor of a bogus company to mask the nature of her business.
Now, I explained the theory behind this and why O'Keefe decided to do it this way.
O'Keeffe believes that in taking on the left is simply not enough to call attention to them and act outraged and try to get other people outraged.
What you have to do is to get them to act out who they are, because they hide who they are.
They hide behind a facade of legitimacy, uh, compassion and all this.
And he cites an Alinsky rule.
He says, in Alinsky says, you win when you make your enemy play by their own rules.
So he took Olinski and he Alinskied Acorn in Baltimore and Washington.
And he walked in there playing a pimp with the with Ms. Giles playing the prostitute with a hidden camera and got them to be who they are.
He just walked in there and said, okay, I need some help.
I'm a prom a pimp.
I got a prostitute.
We're going to bring in some underage girls from El Salvador, and we need to know how we can do this and escape taxes.
And Acorn just here's how you do it.
They knew how to do it.
They advised at two different offices.
Now, this is of no curiosity to the state-controlled media.
If anything, they're doing their best to cover it up by ignoring it, and they're probably preparing stories on who is O'Keeffe and who is Breitbart.
And why are they racists?
Why are they bigots?
Why are they out trying to entrap decent people, trying to help poor people get housing and so forth?
That's gonna be the um the angle.
I gotta take a break here.
We'll come back, get to some of your phone calls, lots more on the audio sunlight roster as well after this.
Say, I wonder if um if uh uh President Obama will be forced to apologize on the House floor.
President Obama lied to the country.
President Obama lied to the people of this country for almost an hour on Wednesday night.
Will he be forced to apologize?
And these uh these two people that Breitbart used at BigGovernment.com, James O'Keefe and uh Ms. Giles, you think they'll win any wards at the con film festival or at the Venice Film, whatever the hell film festival is going on now, like Michael Moore does for his stupid propaganda lies.
Back to the phone sell from Pennsylvania.
This is Alan.
Nice to have you on the EIB network, sir.
Hello.
Hi, Rush.
Thanks for taking my call.
Uh as regards to your uh comments about uh in the in the last segment, maybe President Obama found a way to get Hooker's uh a new stimulus.
But I'd I'd like to talk to you about uh uh 911 on that day, flight ninety-three was the one obviously that crashed at Pennsylvania, and I flew that flight on Thursdays.
And uh as the saying goes, there but for the grace of God go I that would wait that that's three days later, right?
That's when they finally cleared airspace and let uh planes start flying again, is that right?
No, I I flew that flight um uh regularly on on Thursdays.
No, but in September.
That was my regular trip.
Yeah, but the Thursday that you flew, you're talking about before 911 happened or afterwards.
No, I uh I flew it the previous Thursday, and I was supposed to fly it the Thursday.
I got it, okay.
I see.
I try uh everything happened on Tuesday.
But uh I'd really like to thank you on behalf of uh uh so many people for uh uh all you do for everybody in America that doesn't have the voice that you do.
We're on our way down to Washington right now, myself and my wife Ron and my 13 year old son Ian to participate in in this rally.
We've never been political in our lives, and and this is a very good thing.
That's gonna be huge.
That's gonna be this national tea party tomorrow.
Yes.
That is going to be huge.
Yes, and and uh I think it'll be a tremendous civics lesson for our son.
And uh it's been uh uh your voice that's and those uh of Sean and Glenn Beck, but mostly you that have uh spurred us on to this action, and and I want to thank you for giving us uh the knowledge and the courage to to go through with everything that we have to to get our country back.
Thank you very much, uh Alan.
Uh I I really appreciate that.
Although, you know what I've I I actually think uh that more than any of us in the media, what's inspiring all this is genuine events.
I mean, you're you've you've you've never done anything like this, and I haven't told you to go.
You're doing this because you are fed up, you're doing this because you're scared, you're doing this because you're angry, you've got a mixture of emotions, and everybody showing up is showing up because of genuine passion for the that's exactly right.
We've never been political, although I've uh you know enjoyed politics, but we've never been active.
And and this woke us up to the fact that we have to do something for ourselves and our country.
And uh this is the path that we've chosen.
Well, it's a good one, and it's uh it's this I've I've you know, you you're you're full of thanks for me, and I I appreciate it, but I've I've been saying since these tea parties started that I am uh I'm just proud as I can be of everybody showing up because this is this is not the way people on our side of the aisle usually behave.
This kind of activism is usually the exclusive uh property and uh behavior of the left, but this is this has sprung up out of genuine anger and passion.
And uh, like I said, nobody told you to go.
I mean, you you're you're not going because somebody said, hey, join us, make sure you're there.
Uh and somebody might have said that in an indirect way, but you're going there because you want to go.
You've never done anything like it before.
And most of the people showing up are going to be that way.
And I predict you are going to have a wonderful time meeting all these people.
Yeah, exactly right.
And uh uh your voice of reason in what I consider to be the most unreasonable time I have ever spent in my life is uh is a uh guiding light for just about all of us, and uh and on behalf of uh uh the millions of people out there, I'd like to thank you personally.
Well, I appreciate it very much more than you can know.
Uh made my day.
That's Alan who flew Flight 93 every Thursday.
We'll be back just a moment.
The Motown song.
My fellow Palm Beach resident, although he's seldom here, uh Rod Stewart.
Put on your old Motown Records.
If you're familiar with that song, it's a great great, great tune, almost as good as Love Roller Coaster by the Ohio players.
Anyway, folks, this is hilarious.
If it weren't so sad, if it weren't so incompetent, it would be generally hilarious.
This is from the Politico.com.
They have discovered an email that the Secretary of Health and Human Services, Kathleen Sibelius, has sent to her staffers today.
And here it is to Health and Security Services staff from Kathleen Sabilius.
This year, Americans across the country will honor the victims and heroes of the 9-11 tragedy by serving their neighbors and communities as part of the first ever federally recognized September 11th National Day of Service and Remembrance.
Service projects marking the eighth-year anniversary of September 11th will take place in all 50 states in the spirit of service.
We're asking for your help to stop the spread of the pig flu by forwarding the five things you need to know about the pig flu, parentheses attached, to at least ten of your family members and friends, and ask them to forward the attachment too.
Sending this information to as many people as possible is a simple way you can help prevent illness across the country this fall.
National Day of Service and Remembrance, service projects.
Here's your Acorn Community Organizer, also known as the President of the United States, sending out these memos, his departments are sending out these memos, and the way we are going to honor those 3,000
who lost their lives on 9-11 eight years ago, and those in the military who have lost their lives and been wounded in Iraq and Afghanistan is to send out an email attachment, five things you need to know about the pig flu.
And then urging everybody else to send out those five things you need to know about the pig flu.
Now I got this late in the break, and I haven't had a chance to read the whole thing, so I don't know what the five things are.
I'm gonna find out what the five things are in the next commercial break, because I'm fascinated to see what these are.
When your government is sending out through the Department of Health and Human Services, five things you can do.
This is I just want to see what they are.
I want to see what they are attempting to um to do here.
Rob in New York City, welcome to the EIB network.
Hello.
Hi, Rush.
Uh, you're off the mark.
You're wide of the bullseye.
You're headed in the right direction, but on this community service thing, you're missing some of the history, and I think you're missing the more uplifting and more American part of that community service thing.
I was in New York on 9-11.
I was there for the months after.
I'm still a New Yorker.
Can I tell you very briefly what I experienced in the way of community service and that event?
You can tell me all day long, as I could change my mind.
This is not a day of community service.
Well, but r after just the same thing.
D-Day is not a day of community service.
Pearl Harbor Day is not a day we do community service.
Well, I understand that point in a way, but after the attacks, there was this huge outpouring.
Now, this is key.
It was voluntary.
Now I think that's the point.
People poured in from all over the country, and including within the city, people volunteered to help the rescue workers, the iron workers, the legal staff.
Well, of course.
Wait a second.
That's the tradition and history of the country.
We've always done that.
There was nothing special about that.
Well, it was unique for Manhattan.
It was it was incredible, Rush.
I was there and I experienced it for a month.
Every time I went to this one volunteer site to volunteer, they had to send me home.
There were so many people coming from Poughkeepsie, Des Moines, Fort Collins.
They couldn't use me.
I only had a 20-minute subway ride, so they kept sending me home.
Because there were thousands of people coming to do these projects to help out.
So it was and it that is not typical of Manhattan.
Rob, you know, this is this is this is disturbing to me.
And this is why I think we're losing the country in a lot of segments of it.
What you're describing is traditional American exceptionalism.
We used to do this all the time through church churches and charities and so forth.
World War II, we came together like this.
Pearl Harbor Day, we came together like this, and we have days where we commemorate all this.
And today now it's being turned into something that has nothing to do with the event that happened.
It's being used to politicize the agenda of a leftist radical president who doesn't have the slightest bit of comprehension of why all that you just described, the volunteerism happened.
He's ignoring it.
I agree with you there.
I think you know that the the America was that.
I don't know about Manhattan.
I I only lived there from uh 1988 to 1997.
Uh but I I think the thing is I've seen pictures on you know, VE Day, Times Square, I think everybody came together.
Yes, and that's and the thing is where you're absolutely right is the government did not ask for, demand, require this.
It happened spontaneously, voluntarily, and that was the great American thing and uh the uplifting thing, and that is a message, but you're right what the commemoration finally is.
Yeah, that's good.
Um okay, thank you.
Because what bothers me about this is Obama is co-opting.
Catholic Sebelius, Obama's administration is co-opting this day and turning it into a way to further their political agenda by having people do community service for the state.
There's no outpouring of natural community service going on today for the remembrance of 9-11.
That's not I mean, the people I've I've I've watched pictures from the Pentagon and from Ground Zero, uh, which remains a shovel ready pit and Shanksville, Pennsylvania.
And I don't see any people picking up trash, I don't see any community service.
I see a remembrance of what happened at these places.
Obama's trying to take this and transform these events to advance his own political ra leftist radical agenda, and the key words here are community service.
When you hear community service, you've got to think acorn.
You have to think leftist radical agitators trying to tear down the American system.
That's what community service, that's what community agitation is all about.
Think Saul Alinsky.
He's trying to get people to stop thinking about themselves, to stop thinking about their communities, to stop thinking about traditional institutions of America, and instead is trying to get them to serve him.
And his agenda.
And this is just a few short days after he lied to his teeth to the American people repeatedly and often on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives.
To me, this is the potentially the lowest point of his presidency.
This this is a sacred day.
We lost more people eight years ago on this day than at any single one day period, an act of war in our history.
An attack by a foreign enemy On our soil.
I know the Civil War had battles with more were lost.
I'm talking about a foreign enemy.
And what?
Now we're getting community service and volunteerism and go out there and rake the leaves and pick up the trash.
Turn in the bottles for your five cent recycle donation or whatever the hell community service means.
We'll be back.
I just got an email that I must share with you.
Dear Rush.
We in this generation are not used to the gravity of that large scale of people helping each other from all over.
We haven't gone through anything like that, only read about it, World War II in books.
Your last caller was right, but it still has nothing to do with honoring or remembering 9-11.
I am assuming that this person's age is somewhat younger than would necessarily have been alive during World War II.
But what happened after Hurricane Katrina?
I mean, we you the idea that you haven't seen this kind of volunteerism before?
What about when there are floods?
What about these people in all over the country when there are earthquakes in San Francisco?
We've seen this all over the place.
This is this is interesting.
People don't see that it happens.
Somehow it's unique.
We gotta call a community service now.
Yeah, it was uh in 9-11, there was uh in in Manhattan, everybody bit because they were scared to death.
Nobody knew what tomorrow was gonna bring.
And we're trying to wipe that memory out.
We're trying to make sure you're calling these heinous crimes and so forth.
But I want to remind you, it took just two weeks for the Democrat Party to blow that all to hell by politicizing Bush's reaction, his behavior sitting in the school room reading to the kids.
Peter Jennings on ABC saying, you know, some presidents are just better at this consoling the nation than others are.
Meaning, oh, Clinton was so wonderful in these circumstances like after the Oklahoma City bombing.
You think they didn't come together down there at Oklahoma City?
This is this is what traditional American behavior's always been.
It's nothing special.
We don't need calls for community service.
We're Americans, we do it.
But quite we serve our communities each and every day.
This insults the hell out of me.
That we're such sheeple now that we are so mind-numbed that we're so much robots that the government's gotta tell us what to do.
Now the Health and Human Services Secretary is sending an email to all the employees in her department saying we're gonna celebrate 9-11.
We're gonna remember it by sending around an email with five things to do regarding the pig flu.
And by the way, the political story does not have the memo, so I don't know what the five things are.
But I'm gonna find out.
July 25th, 2009.
This is another videotape shot by the independent filmmaker James O'Keefe posing as a pimp with a woman named Kenya, who posed as a prostitute.
This time they're visiting the Acorn office in Washington, and they have this exchange about uh obtaining housing.
My partner is a uh she's a unique line of business.
And I don't know if you allow unique line, is what it is.
If you don't tell us we can't help you.
Okay.
And I don't know if I've kind of figured that.
I can be the one who helped the house for her, and then she can perform tricks in the house.
Yeah.
So here's Acorn again in Washington helping to further the whole notion of uh prostitution and evading taxes in Washington, and they and then they they talked about, you know, the importation of underage girls from a foreign company, and the acorn people in Washington gave the same advice that the acorn people in Baltimore got.
And of course, Acorn's wrong.
We were set up!
And the to this to this day, the um state-controlled media zip zero nada.
Nick in Greenville, South Carolina.
Thank you for calling.
Thanks for waiting.
You are on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hey, Rush.
I just want to say thanks for uh taking my call.
Um I wanted to comment on this whole Joe Wilson uh apology thing.
Um last time I checked, uh Nancy Pelosi isn't his boss.
Uh the the people of South Carolina who elected him are his boss.
And I just wanted to say that we we are extremely proud of Joe Wilson.
A lot of people are.
I can't wait to see what the fundraising numbers are for people who have been deluging his website since uh since this incident happened.
But look, we've gone through all this.
Harry Reid never apologized for calling Bush a liar.
Uh Jack Mertha, has anybody demanded Jack Mirtha apologize for accepting the charge that the Marines at Haditha were cold-blooded murderers.
Has anybody made John Carey apologize for calling the troops in Iraq terrorizers of women and children in their homes at night?
I can't believe this.
We've got an ongoing debate here about the lack of civility on the Republican Party when we've got eight years of some of the most horrendous, demeaning, dispiriting, despicable filth that came out of the mouths of Democrats.
I'm like, I don't I don't I I hope he doesn't apologize.
That's um that that this is if if if if we're going to apologize for this, if we're gonna make him apologize for this, then we're not a serious political movement here.
This is not a time to be caught up in the vagaries of civility and proper etiquette and decorum.
We're up against people who want to destroy the country, America, as it was founded, replace it with uh with something else.
Uh, Randy, Toledo, Ohio.
Thank you for waiting.
You're next on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hi, Russ.
It's a pleasure.
I'm actually in Toledo, Illinois.
Uh, sorry, you're right, I misread that.
I didn't I didn't have my it happens a lot.
People don't know that there's actually a Toledo.
Now, our call screener finds the Syracuse, Indiana's, the Peoria, Arizonas.
I never heard of these places, and I didn't know that uh Illinois had a Toledo.
Well, it's about uh 1,300 people, so I can understand why.
Well, I'm glad you called.
Well, the reason I called is because my family is you know is supported by the pork industry very little right now because of the situation.
And I and I have to bring up something.
I listen to you daily uh on a daily basis.
Um we just have talk radio here, and I just got it here recently in the last six months, and uh I love the fact that you're on.
You are such a uh a fresh a fresh breath of air for this area that we've they've definitely needed considering we get most of our talk radio out of WLS in Chicago.
So uh, but my what I have to take a little bit of you know umbrage with you is on the fact that you're always saying pig flu and swine flu.
Yeah.
And I know why you say it because that's the way it's propagandized.
No, it's really not.
It's not, I know it's N1H1.
I just, as a professional, highly trained broadcast specialist.
I just like the way pig flu sounds.
It does roll off the tongue very well, I will admit that.
But you know, there are many people, I feel I really truly believe there's a lot of educated people that listen to your program mostly.
I know, and you're you're worried that they think they're gonna get this N1H1 if they eat some bacon or a pork chop.
Exactly.
Yeah.
Exactly.
And I'm sadly like I when I talk to your screener, you know, he's like, I know that chicken is is up and and beef is up as far as sales are going, and pork is down, and the pork dollars are down, and you know, and uh you hear about you know, it's so funny that whenever it's something bad in within our history, it's they always talk about pigs and pork and swine.
You know, we talk about the porculus package that you talked about and and all those things.
Now, wait a second.
Wait a second a little too personally.
But I grant You.
I grant you it could be damaging to uh refer to the N1H1 as the pig flu.
I'll I will do my best.
I got a habit has started here, so I may slip up a couple more times.
I'll do my best to refrain in the future.
I agree that pig flu is probably over the top.
But I think we get away with swine flu.
I mean, the only people aren't going to understand that are the people in Rio Linda and Port St. Lucie.
When you say swine, uh, people of Rio Linda, Port St. Lucie think that you're talking about their spouse.
And they could get swine flu from their spouse.
