Time Text
This is unbelievable, folks.
On MSNBC, during our top of the hour obscene prosperity timeout.
I'm watching an interview of Mahmood Ahmed Izad by NBC's Ann Curry.
She's dressed up, she looks like his wife.
She asks him, did you steal the election?
Did you steal the She's asking a tyrant dictator?
Did you steal the election?
Would she walk into an acorn office and ask anybody there that question?
Live from the Southern Command in sunny South Florida.
It's open line Friday.
Did you steal?
Thanks.
And she's walking around outside the obligatory, let's take a stroll shot, uh, dressed up like his wife, or one of his wives.
I don't know how many they have there.
Open.
That's tough interviewing folks.
Did you steal it?
Next question: Are you really making a nuclear bomb?
Uh, we're back.
Open line Friday, 800-282-2882, and uh email uh L Rushmow at EIBNet.com.
Now remember, I kind of threw this in here at the uh at the close of the previous hour.
Wolf Blitzer was on Celebrity Jeopardy, and he finished the game with minus 4600.
Uh this is if it's not the lowest, it's one of the lowest negative scores almost ever done on the history of Jeopardy.
Now you gotta you gotta remember how Jeopardy works.
He was not outdone by smart opponents.
Blitzer kept getting answers wrong.
Remember, if you are if you're just paired with somebody smart, you never get to answer because they always hit the buzzer before you do.
You end up with zero dollars.
The only way you can go negative is if you think you know the answers, hit the buzzer and are wrong.
Blitzer thought he knew lots of stuff.
And he got it wrong to the tune of minus 46, almost a jeopardy record.
It's just as they say it hot air.
Wolf needs to stay in the situation.
All right.
Uh during the break, Mr. Snerdley showed me a uh a website uh the friend of his had alerted him to.
Uh apparently it has taken hold out there that well when discussing Obama's America as it relates to the uh the school bus incident.
Where was that?
That was in Belleville, right?
Belleville, Illinois.
Um playing off the newsweek story that uh, you know, we're we're all white kids are born racists.
Uh I did a whole routine here on, well, maybe we need to segregate the buses and so forth in a joking fashion.
And this guy at the Southern Poverty Law Center, this this Mark Plotkin, is that his name?
What do they want to do with Mark Potok?
Mark Potok says that I want segregated buses.
Now we're gonna get to what he said or what I said, but I want to preface it, or precede it with Howard Dean last night on MSNBC.
He was asked if he shares Pelosi's concerns over the wave of violence we all know is just waiting to break out.
There's a lot of money to be made in passing out hate of the kind that Rush Limbaugh is just doing.
And Russell's, look, he's always an entertainer, but he's way over the line.
And this is the law, there's a long unfortunate American tradition to this, going back to Father Coughlin and people before that, just in the appeal to the very worst in people.
They appeal to the to the side of all of us that is about anger and fear and hatred, and they empower it.
And it is an evil thing to do, and it's very, very bad for the country.
But for a long time, these people have put themselves in their wallets way ahead of America.
They pretend to be patriots, but they're not patriotic at all.
There you Dr. Howard Dean, the former leader of the Democrat National Committee, uh see, they're setting this up.
They've been they've been desiring to write this story for eighteen or nineteen years now.
They do it.
They they even when it's not true, they write limb admiring hate, violence, angry white man.
Yeah, to oppose health care, not only is it racist now, it's unpatriotic to oppose socialized medicine.
These people are kooks.
They're nuts.
Now let's get to this Potok cook.
This guy is a genuine off the wall lunatic.
He's at the Southern Poverty Law Center.
He was on hard boiled last night with Chris Matthews.
And this guy, Potok, uh is it he's an embarrassment of a human being.
He's claiming that I actually want segregation on buses.
Matthew said, What is it in the atmosphere?
It allows a person to feel comfortable showing up at a political amount carrying a gun, maybe two guns, letting people know they're armed.
What is it in the atmosphere that lets a person bring a sign that compares the president to an animal or to a Nazi?
Chris.
Pelosi got the Nazi thing going, dude.
What is it that makes him feel comfortable doing that kind of crap in public, uh, Mark?
I wonder uh if it isn't the atmosphere of language that's being used today.
Your thoughts, sir.
Mark Potok.
Yesterday Rush Limbaugh was on the air talking about an incident in which black kids attacked a white kid on a school bus, an incident the police said was not racially motivated, and saying that what we need are segregated buses, that this is the only way I suppose that white people can be protected from black people.
I think when we have characters like Limbaugh saying that on the air to millions of Americans, many of whom actually revere the man, you know, it's not surprising that people feel that uh, you know, the race war is around the corner and that we're allowed to say these kinds of things.
Well, let's it's incredible.
This whole race tumult is being orchestrated and run out of the White House, straight out of Rahmanuel and Axelrod's office.
They are promoting it.
They are encouraging it.
Isn't it amazing?
You have black kids who uh beat up a white kid on a school bus that's not racism.
You have half the country criticizing a socialist health care plan, and that is racism.
Okay, so there you heard this despicable embarrassment of a human being, Mark Potok from the Southern Poverty Law Center's Intelligence Project.
Now, here is the comment I made in context in response to a caller, obviously not a call for segregation.
Hi, Rush.
Hey, I just was commenting on the Belleville incident with the kids on the bus.
You're right.
They did report that last night as being racially motivated, but I just heard the news uh before your show started, and uh the police chief over I think he was the police chief, some law enforcement over there said that after further investigation of it, it was not racially motivated.
He said he should have been more professional before he commented on it and investigated it more before he decided and stated that it was racially motivated.
Well, did he say why uh in Obama's America, that incident with the white kid getting beat up on the black school bus was not racially motivated?
I d I I didn't hear him comment about that.
Because we've seen the video.
Have you seen the video tape?
Oh, yeah, sure.
We can't hear what's being said.
No.
So we don't know what obvious taunts this lone white student was dishing out to the whole bus.
We don't know what obvious taunts.
Right.
And worse than the obvious verbal taunts, we all know the racism that was in the kid's mind.
I mean, Newsweek magazine says he's born a racist, so you know the white kid is sitting there thinking in word and all kinds of things, being surrounded by these black students.
They knew that.
They knew that.
And so they they just descended on the kid, beat him up.
We've seen the video tape.
What did the police chief investigate?
He did not comment on anything uh other than he said more investigations showed that it wasn't racially motivated.
I think the guy's wrong.
I think not only was it racist, it was justifiable racism.
I mean, that's the lesson that we're being taught here today.
Kids shouldn't have been on the bus anyway.
We need segregated buses.
It was invading space.
This Obama's America.
So I'm doing a total uh parodical ramp.
I mean, the sarcasm is dripping.
And this bottom feeder at the Southern Poverty Law Center, Mark Potok is putting it all out there that I made a call for segregated buses.
It's like, you know what this is like?
Some of you people new to the show may not have ever heard this story.
Cookie go to the archives and grab what's a pet?
Patsy Schroeder.
Back in uh mid-90s, I was asked to go make a speech on a Sunday afternoon at Gopak.
And in Washington, I was very upset because it was a big football.
The 49ers and Cowboys were playing, but I'd agreed to do this thing, so I was not in the best of humor.
Not in the best mood.
And at that time, we were in the middle of the budget debate, the school lunch cuts, and the Democrats were calling around saying that uh the Republicans engaging in their usual stuff of cutting social security and Medicare and Medicaid, and that uh they were running around saying that food stamps and senior citizens were soon gonna have to make the choice of eating dog food and being able to buy medicine or eating real food and not buying medicine.
So all this is banging around washing it for a whole week before I get this.
So I opened up the speech by thanking the Gopak people for inviting me.
Uh it's really great to be here.
And I'll tell you what, I'm so happy the Democrats are doing what they're doing because I have heard them.
And I want you people, I love my mother, and I love old people.
And it says the Democrats have told me what's gonna happen.
What I had done, I went out and I bought my mom a new can opener so she can either dog food easier when she has to eat it.
And the place busted up laughing.
Well, this this was televised, it was on C-SPAN.
Pat Schroeder went to the floor of the house the next day and said, This is what it's come to.
This is it.
This is Rush Limbaugh, who actually said, he's going to buy his mother a kin opener, so she can have dog food.
Wow.
I could not believe it.
These people are humorless.
This guy Potok, in addition to being ugly, has no humor whatsoever.
How could you listen to that bite and not get the sarcasm?
On purpose.
You have to purposely miss my whole point in order to put that rat gut stuff out there.
And now he's got everybody all worked up, call for segregated.
It's it's spread.
Let me it's spreading around the internet.
I know it's uh snurly showed me some of the stuff that's being spread around on the internet here.
This is this is how these people work.
But of course, ladies and gentlemen, you uh know the truth.
The internet didn't make me, the internet can't break me.
The media didn't make me, they can't break me.
The Southern Poverty Law Center didn't make me.
Mark Potok and anybody else now there can't break me.
Only you can do that, and you won't.
And we're back at Rush Limbaugh Open Line Friday.
A friend of mine just went to Google and did a search for limbaugh and segregation, and it turned back 79,008 English pages for limbaugh and segregation.
And they talk about the right wing echo chamber and a radical noise machine.
79,800 pages on uh results for limbaugh and segregation.
The point of that school bus riff.
Do I have to play this again?
I was saying the black kids were justified beating up the one white kid because he was obviously racist.
He they knew that he was sitting there thinking inward.
They knew he was sitting there thinking all kinds of rotten things about him.
They just know this because Newsweek magazine said the kid was born a racist, so they were entitled to beat the kid up because he they knew he was a racist.
Because our society in Obama, it's Obama's America.
White people are racist.
And I said, jokingly segregate the buses to protect the black students.
So they wouldn't be taunted, so they wouldn't be feeling what these guys, literally no sense of humor.
Here's Patsy Schroeder.
This is 1995 on the floor of the House of Representatives.
And they had the big kahuna of Gopak come speak, none other than Rosh Limbaugh himself, who stood there and said to all these people who paid all this money to keep Gopak rich, he was hailing the GOP budget.
He said, according to the paper and according to the C-SPAN tape, he thought it was wonderful because it would starve the poor, and it would drive Medicare recipients, including his mother, to eat dog food.
But not to worry, Mom, he says, I'm sending you a new can opener.
Wow.
That tells you what today's about.
I think this is incredible.
I still laugh myself silly when I hear this now that this is 14 years ago.
And so now they just got somebody besides uh uh Patsy Schrodinger's Mark Potok guy from the Southern Poverty Law Center out doing the same.
Wow.
Just how dense.
You she's so dense.
Patsy Schroeder's so dense she could absorb light.
How dense do you have to be to think somebody would actually stand up and be serious?
Hey, mom, don't worry about it.
I'm gonna send you a new can opener.
Wow.
All right, Christine in Loomis, California.
We go back to the phones on open line Friday.
Great to have you with us.
Hello.
Salami Salami Baloney Ditto's great Maharashi.
Thank you very much.
Yeah, you're welcome.
Well, I just called to tell you I saw you on the website, and you are looking so great.
You look so cute in those loud mouth whatever shorts.
They're really cute.
And I'm so proud of you for getting fit.
It's just the best news.
Well, thank you very much I appreciate that.
A lot of people are expressing uh similar sentiments uh in the uh in email about uh me being fit and healthy and so forth.
Happy to hear it.
Um well it's uh it's it's it's it's important because as I've often said, I'm not retiring till every American agrees with me, and uh the task seemingly gets harder each day this day because more and more people in this country are going insane.
Insane.
And that Patsy Schroeder talk about a pea brain, that thing was unbelievable.
I mean, just the way she said it, you'd think she was reading a joke.
And I mean, why didn't everybody crack up?
No, but she bought it, but of course, somebody got to her.
She didn't say it again.
She dropped it like a hot.
She knew she had made a fool of herself.
Yeah, she had to.
So no, I just think you look great, and I'm so happy and proud of you, Rush.
Well, thank you.
So just keep it up.
We all love you.
And we know you don't like to talk about yourself, but I just had to call.
It does embarrass me to talk about myself.
It really does.
Uh it embarrasses me to listen to you talk about me, but I I'm trying to get better at that.
Oh, well, good.
All right, thank you.
Thank you, Rash.
Love you.
You bet love you.
By the way, where's where's Mike Knife when you I mean if if this country is descending, if we need we need Mike Knife?
No, how can they misinterpret this?
We need Nyphong back.
Where's Mike Nyphong when we need him?
I mean, what what seminal character could best symbolize the fall into total racism that half of the countries bring knife on and make him attorney general?
Get rid of Holder, put him somewhere else.
Make Mike Nyphong attorney general.
That's what Obama ought to do.
Here's Joe in uh Eau Claire, Wisconsin.
Great to have you on the program.
Hello.
Hey, Rush Megadiddos.
It's an honor and a privilege to speak to you on this, the largest talk show station in the world.
Thank you very much.
Rush, I just want to talk to you about uh voting out all sitting incumbents in both the House and Senate, be they Republican or Democrat, getting rid of all career politicians over the next two election cycles.
As you know, um well, I'm not saying that we should uh vote out all two-party form of government, but rather to recommend the voice of the people by way of exercising our power.
We are currently, we have an absolute power problem.
Three hundred and twenty million people are being held hostage by five hundred and thirty-five people.
The new hires, if this were successful, should know that we expect term limits, two six-year terms max.
Yeah.
I know that it is nearly impossible to get the left and the right to agree on anything, but we can agree on one thing.
We are being poorly represented.
As you know, Rush, we fled the tyranny of taxation without representation, but it was not just about taxation.
It was equally about setting up a form of government separate from a monarchy that would have a quality of representation as close to equal to that of the will of the people.
Well, you know, I think you got a you got a great idea here.
You ought to lead this movement.
You ought to get out there and lead the just get rid of everybody.
I mean, I I gotta dig it.
Get rid of everybody.
Yeah.
Go for it.
Yeah, I thought it's here.
I'm trying to find a stack and I can't, but I I can I I have it from uh memory.
I'll get it anyway.
They're selling carbon offsets at the San Francisco International uh airport, and they're charging 60 times the market rate for carbon offsets.
Now, that's a fruit loopy place.
It's an ideal place to run this scam.
Carbon offsets when these liberals in San Francisco get on the jet that think they're destroying the planet by flying someplace.
Anyway, welcome back, Rush Limbaugh here and the EIB network.
Here it is.
This is Ann Curry talking to uh Mahmud Ahmadini Zad in an official exclusive interview.
Did you steal this election, sir?
I don't know what you mean by that.
Did you create conditions so that you would win no matter the vote?
It's clear.
Whoever becomes a candidate will start a campaign and will do his outmost to win.
I think just that I'm not sure.
We should be courageous enough to accept the vote of the people.
It's more courageous than participating in the vote itself.
This is this is unbelievable.
Did you steal the election, sir?
I don't know.
Sure thing, yep, I did.
You know, you're the first person to ask me that.
I stole the election here.
Let me tell you how I did it.
You want me?
Let me show you the ballots that I screwed with.
And Achmanini's odd says, I uh I I don't know what you mean by that.
So inquiry actually rephrases the question.
Did you create conditions so that you would win no matter the vote?
Yep, we stacked the deck out there.
We made sure that my opponent wasn't gonna get anywhere in this.
We had as many fake ballots as we needed.
I can take you to the back room and show what in the world.
Next question.
Are you really making a nuclear bomb to kill Jews?
Yes!
In fact, we've got five bombs.
I'm gonna take you to our nuclear processor plant here where we've got the materials just game in from Kim Il-sung or Kim Jong-o, whatever from North Korea.
Uh, yeah, let me let me take you to this site here where we're building our nuclear bomb.
Are you really going to use the bomb to kill Jews?
Well, why else will we build a bomb?
Of course we're gonna use the bomb to kill.
What in a who are all this in advance of Ahmedini Zod my staff is panicking because Rush, do you realize what Mark Botok at the Southern Poverty Law Center could do with what you just said?
That's a tweak of the day.
That's the media tweak of the day.
All right, we do this, it's a new, it's a new feature, the media tweak of the day, knowing full well how they're gonna take something distorted out of context.
And uh that was it.
Now get this.
This is on CNN by uh trickyfication of the news.
Ashley Fans, F-A-N-T-Z.
Obama as witch doctor, racist or satirical.
Apparently, a Tea Party rally protester had a sign with Obama depicted as a witch doctor.
Here, I'll show you on the uh ditto camping zoom in there.
That's it.
Uh, but that's that's the poster at the One of the tea parties with Obama sitting there as a as a as a witch doctor.
And uh CNN's terribly upset about this because this, of course, racist country.
So uh protesters portraying President Obama as a witch doctor, uh maybe racist.
Organizers of Tea Party protests say, but they reflect anger about where he's leading the country.
The posters showing Obama wearing a feather headdress and a bone through his nose have recently popped up in emails on websites and at Tea Party protests.
Limbaugh laughs at the witch doctor image.
The image has stoked debate and cast attention on the rallies, which have drawn people uh Tea Party organizers describe as on the fringe and not representative of the overall movement.
The witch doctor imagery is blatantly racist, critics contend.
And then later on in this story, there is this line.
Get this now.
There's another wrinkle to the witch doctor controversy.
Obama was mocked by some critics as the magical Negro during the campaign because he was perceived to be a solve all to nation's problems.
By some Obama was mocked by some critics as the magical Negro.
Can't we name the critic?
His name is David Ahrenstein.
And he writes for the Los Angeles Times.
And he wrote the column and called Obama the Magic Negro.
And by the way, I've looked at this image.
I can see it closer than you have of Obama the Witch.
This is not Obama.
Um the media thinks it's Obama.
This poster that's got the Obama messed up as a as a witch doctor.
This is brother.
This is taken outside the hut.
I think in uh in Kenya.
It's not, it's not it's not even President Obama.
They're they're just they're just all upset here over.
Obama's a witch doctor.
Try this headline, folks.
Uh U.S. and Cuba meet on resuming direct mail service.
Another step in Obama's efforts to improve relations.
U.S. and Cuban officials met yesterday to discuss the possibility of resuming long suspended direct mail service in the first round of talks that Cuba described as broad and useful.
Why don't we just offer them the post office?
All right, back to the phones.
Mona in Salem, Ohio.
It's open line Friday.
Great to have you here.
Hello.
Hi, Rush.
How are you today?
Fine and dandy, thank you.
I want to help you build Rushville in Kenya, Africa.
You want if all your listeners, I mean, I'll come out of retirement and go to work.
Uh we need to take up a to show that we're not racist.
I'd be willing to go forgo a can of dog food for this week and put in a dollar.
And if we'd all do it, we're losing raise the money.
Uh the the the monitors of this show are going nuts.
Do you realize we're driving them insane today?
They do they don't know what to focus on.
All right.
Let me explain what she's talking about.
Earlier this week, we had this story out there, ladies and gentlemen, that Obama family members in the village where his gr his dad grew up, they still live there.
They've been expecting boatloads of money since Obama was elected to the Senate in 2004, and he's given them nothing.
They actually, a delegation went to Washington, he met with them, and he gave them advice on how to hit up U.S. uh agency for international development for money.
But he said he's not going to give them any.
His brother lives in a hut in this place.
His uh either stepgrandmother or great grandmother, whatever, she's the first to get water and electricity run to her hut.
She has a multi-hut compound, it said in the story.
And the the town, the village elders, they want to build an Obama family museum outside the village, and that's part of what they want the money for.
So I said, maybe, and I got to thinking about this.
I mean, how much could it possibly cost to upgrade you know, pave a rubber water, water?
The story said water is delivered to the to the village on the backs of donkeys, folks.
They don't even have running water in Obama's family village.
And so Mona here is saying, Rush, you got it, you gotta do it.
Because I thought about maybe we call the Rush Limbaugh Obama Family Museum, because if you donate and build a wing of something, they put your name on it.
Absolutely.
So uh we I you know, you kind of jump in the gun here.
I have intermediaries looking into this.
This but it's got to be done very carefully.
Um, I'd be glad, willing to make a donation.
Well it's meager as it is.
I'm sure all of you.
Snurdley says, how much you gonna throw in?
Me.
You know.
If you throw it in.
I'll make a can of dog food a week.
Uh okay, then throw in a dollar.
Throw in a dollar.
Snerdley says he'll match it.
So we got two bucks right there.
Okay.
Uh eighteen more, and Obama's brother will be able to move out of the hut.
He lives on something like a buck sixty-nine a year, he says.
In the in the picture.
But it is.
It is an interesting kid.
Do you imagine if if I did open this up to donations from this one, do you realize what we could turn this village into?
We could probably come close for that village.
We could build something on a par with the World Trade Center.
And I mean, not that big, but it's something that would be that stark, a contrast to what's there now.
Do you realize what this audience could do for Obama's family home?
I mean, that's just look what it yeah.
I mean, we've got a uh precedent for this.
There's a there's a track record.
Look what I have done for Rio Linda, California.
Before I discovered the place, property values out there were just nothing.
Now it's a big deal to say you're from Rio Linda.
It's not a big deal to be from it, but it's a big deal.
There you are.
We might end up hijacking all of Obama's Sunday shows with all the media tweaks today.
Okay.
Okay, we're back.
Rush Limboy.
Now here's the story.
This is from the San Francisco Chronicle.
Travelers flying out of San Francisco at the International Airport there can be the listen to the way this is written.
Travelers flying out of San Francisco International Airport can be the first in the nation to wipe away some of the damage their flights wreak on the planet by swiping their credit cards.
Talk about being in the tank for a hoax.
This is Mark Cabinetwan.
Cabonatwan, I don't know how to pronounce it, but it's a chronicle staff writer.
On Thursday, the Bay Area's largest airport unveiled three climate passport kiosks with touch screens, and determine how many pounds of carbon dioxide a triple produce, they calculate the sum that an environmentally conscious traveler should contribute to projects in San Francisco and California to help reduce greenhouse gases, and then allow flyers to purchase certified carbon offsets.
Steve McDougall, executive vice president of three degrees, a San Francisco company that helped the airport develop the program, said we realize people are going to fly.
This gives them something they can do to reduce their impact.
This is just one of many small things people it's a scam.
They're running a scam on these guilty liberals in San Francisco, and my official climatologist of this program, Roy Spencer, Dr. Roy Spencer, University of Alabama at Huntsville, writes to say that the values that they are charging for these carbon offsets are 60 times the going market rate out there.
That's the price for San Francisco liberals to assuage their guilt over uh uh living.
Many people hope that their plan won't get hit by lightning if they buy just before a flight.
And folks, I kid you not, I'm not making this up.
I have researched it, I got the email, I spent some time looking at it.
And trust me on this, the Baucus Healthcare Bill.
I I've got the provision, I've got the paragraph, footnote 103, the Max Baucus Healthcare Bill taxes, tampons, condoms, hearing aids, pregnancy tests, all kinds of medical devices, and many things are qualified as medical devices, like a tampon.
Or a condom.
Or a hearing aid.
There are taxes galore in the Baucus bill, which is why the hack from the Obama White House uh comm uh communications department for health care, Linda Douglas did not pee on the bill.
It's got taxes there are reasons why Obama loves this.
A friend sent me a I've sent the note out to Can you believe this?
He sends a note back to me, he says, you know, this reminds me of the old joke when I was a kid.
You've probably heard this, but I'm gonna tell you again.
Teenage boy wants to buy a condom, sheepishly asks the pharmacist how much are these?
The pharmacist says they're a buck, a dollar.
Kid says, okay, I'll take one.
Pharmacist says, Great, that'll be a dollar and five cents.
Kid says, I thought you said it was just a dollar.
Pharma said, Yeah, one dollar for the condom, five cents for the tax.
Kid, oh, I thought you rolled these things on.
Oh, we're giving them all kinds of stuff today.
State controlled meeting to focus on Rick in Fort Collins, Colorado.
Hello to the welcome to the EIB network.
Hi, sir.
Thanks, Rush.
As a longtime Saints fan, I can't tell you how excited I am.
Football season's finally.
Isn't it great?
We're back to semi-normalcy.
Let me tell you, I've got one dog named Deuce McAllister, another dog named Reggie Bush.
I am absolutely ready to go.
And I recently had a dear old friend of mine who happens to be a blood-sucking lawyer out of New Orleans send me a uh link to uh Drew Breeze sport science video.
If you have not seen this thing, it is unbelievable.
Drew Breeze was tested under the same circumstances as Olympic Archers.
And this guy takes the football and hits a four and a half inch target from twenty yards out ten times in a row.
Four of those I think were absolute center bullseyes.
And Olympic archers can only do this well, the bullseye in general, uh, four out of ten times.
The guy's just amazing.
I don't know if you saw any of the game as a Saints fan I did last year.
I saw, yeah, I watched.
I I watch, I have the NFL Sunday ticket.
As do I. I brag.
I brag.
Well, some people can't get direct TV, and they're very fumed about this because it's not offered on cable.
Well, I wanted to get your input here, because uh the Saints have always had one or the other, the good offense, good defense.
I mean, uh it it took over 20 years for the Saints to even go two and oh in a season.
And as the Saints fan, I I wore the paper bag over my head.
I did the bigger.
I was just gonna ask you if you were one of those baggers.
Oh, yeah.
Uh yeah, the group of us from Squeaky Tree Beach would put the bags over our heads and go, we had shares that consisted of nice tri-team.
If we made a first down, we'd stand up and go nuts.
But uh it looks as though we might have a shot this year.
Uh the Bell guy comes down from Colorado, and evidently the oxygen has improved his game.
Uh yeah, you're you're a hot spot running back.
Yep.
And uh ran over them, and and Reggie Bush has never really clicked in the NFL.
I mean, he's done some great things.
All purpose, but he still tries to dance around people.
Well, you're gonna interest you're gonna find out a lot about your team this week.
Because you're you're playing the Eagles on the road in Philadelphia.
Now doubtful what McNabb's gonna play, and if he does play, he's playing a broken rib, but you're going up against uh, you know, a major league defense, unlike what you faced in Detroit.
And I I I know, I mean, I don't know, but I know that they're they're they're gonna try to get Breeze to break Brady's T D record, uh season T V record.
You have six touchdowns through the air last week in Detroit, and he's well on his way.
Uh and I know that uh you that offense is unstoppable.
Yeah.
Well, the only drawback about Breeze is he's too short.
That's what everybody said about him his whole career, and look what he's done.
I know.
But they can knock the balls down.
Uh you know, that he's too short, can't play.
They say that about so many people.
They say that about everybody faces that in their life.
What whether they play football or whether they're in radio.
At some point in your life, everybody's gonna tell you you can't do it.
Many people are gonna tell you you can't do it.
The trick is to not listen to them.
I always tell people that whatever it is you want to do, talk to people who succeeded at it.
Don't talk to the failures because they bitter about it, and they're gonna tell you that you can't make it either because they're not gonna really want you to make it.
But everybody's told they can't do it.
The difference is that there are a lot of people that just don't listen to that.
And go out and do what they do as well as they can because they love it.
And that's all that matters.
We'll be back.
Breeze is one of those guys.
That says unbelievable day.
Here's a headline from today's Boston Herald.
State Democrats plot dog surcharge.
If this is not the true state of the Democrats, state Republicans are howling mad over yet another tax increase being uh uh slipped through the uh Massachusetts legislature that would slap an annual $3 state surcharge on municipal licensing fees that dog owners pay to license their dogs.
A dog tax in Massachusetts.
