WCBS Channel 2 eyeball news in New York Headlines suspect should have been on a watch list Man, this regime really knows what they're doing I mean they've got their enemies really pinpointed Welcome back it's Rush Limbaugh and the excellence in broadcasting network as always half my brain tied behind my back just to make it fair.
Telephone number if you want to be on the program is 800-282-2882 and the email address LRushbo at EIBnet.com.
Here is a portion of the presser this afternoon.
Eric Holder and Big Sis Janet Napolitano with their own version of the Academy Awards congratulating each other on a job well done.
I want to commend them for their results in this case and their unwavering commitment to their jobs.
We owe them our gratitude and our respect.
I want to express my gratitude to all of the federal, state, local law enforcement personnel.
I'd like to thank the dedicated men and women at the Department of Homeland Security.
I'd also like to give special thanks to the alert citizens in New York City.
The t-shirt guy.
If anybody ever had any doubt about it, this failed bombing attempt clearly shows the value of the saying, if you see something, say something.
Thank you.
Except if you're in Arizona.
She keeps forgetting to add that.
You see something, say something, except in Arizona.
So then they went to the reporters for a question.
The first one, Secretary Napolitano, why can the guy still get on the plane and have the plane depart from the gate when he was placed on a no-fly list?
I don't want to get into details of timing and no-fly, but the way he was apprehended was that, particularly since Christmas, the CBP has been instituting a number of rules that enable us to further check against new data or information that is provided, even very recent information against passenger manifests on planes.
And they have been working, as you might imagine, around the clock.
And so as new data was supplied over the course of the investigation yesterday, they were able to match it once the plane manifest was complete, go on the plane and arrest him.
That's not answering the question.
How did the guy get on the plane?
How did this guy get on?
You know, they took two other guys off the plane with this guy.
And he's apparently still yapping away.
Another reporter, Madam Secretary, are you saying if this had happened before Christmas, that plane might have taken off?
No, I'm not saying that, Mike.
What I'm saying is that in this particular case, some of the new rules were particularly useful in allowing us to arrest him before the plane took off.
Let's not forget, folks, it is what it is.
The guy is on the way to the airport and calls Emirate Airlines and buys a ticket.
He's hold a ticket for him.
He's going to buy it in cash.
Or maybe he bought it earlier in cash.
What did he call him?
He's on the way.
We looked it up.
A first-class ticket from New York to Dubai on Emirate Airlines is over $8,000.
It's something like $800 if you go, coach.
I don't know which ticket he bought.
He shouldn't have any money because he was foreclosed on.
Nevertheless, he got on the plane.
He got through security.
You grandmothers, you got to strip down to your panties and your bra before you got an airplane.
This guy somehow gets right through the security checkpoint, gets on the airplane, a pushback.
And the airline is who called the authorities.
I wonder if the airline called the t-shirt vendor, and the t-shirt vendor then called the authorities.
Russia, you...
No, I'm not putting down the authorities.
Folks, we have a bunch of incompetents here at the federal level of this regime, and they're patting themselves on the back here for something that was pure luck.
They are incompetent.
They don't even look at this guy as an enemy.
He should have been on a no-fly list.
Time magazine knows he was attending training camps.
And we know, folks, that there are not yet training camps the Taliban puts on for Americans who've been foreclosed on or for people angry at the Arizona immigration law.
So it's dumb luck.
It appears here.
This regime doesn't even look at guys like this Faisal Shawzad as a potential threat.
We are the threat.
The Tea Party is the threat they're worried about.
That's the one they're warning everybody about.
Talk radio and all that.
So, I mean, that's some total of the press conference.
Now, Snerdley says he's figured out why Faisal Shazad was foreclosed on.
They wanted him to blend in with typical Americans in the Obama economy is the reason given here from my own staff as to why they might have foreclosed on the guy.
So you just blend in with average Americans and whatever.
All right, now to the oil spill.
CNN.
It sounds like a Hollywood movie, an impending disaster.
Think the disabled spacecraft in Apollo 13 or the asteroid hurling toward Earth in Armageddon.
It prompts a daring intervention by engineers to save the day.
This time, the threat's real.
Oil gushing from a broken well at the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico could destroy livelihoods in irreplaceable coastal wetlands.
Equally real is the attempted engineering marvel, a four-story metal container that will be lowered onto the leaking pipe to try to suck in the flowing oil.
Officials at BP, the oil giant that owns the leaking well, well, they lease it, said Monday they plan to try the unprecedented effort this week, if successful.
They say the pollution containment chamber could reduce the underwater gusher by more than 80% and provide the first success in industry and government efforts.
There aren't any government efforts.
This is the whole point.
Obama and his boys are running around saying, we got to keep the boots on the throat of BP.
And yet here's the headline, British Petroleum to try unprecedented engineering feat to stop the oil spill.
Engineers have to know math.
Math is cumulative.
I mean, you take a lot of math over a course of a lot of years.
You're learning it in grade school, so you can study it in engineering school.
And I'm sure, you know, classes about bullies and evil corporations and Earth Delebrations, gender identification are more fun than actually studying math.
But that's why this is important.
And yet today, the Obama administration comes out and says, only government will do what?
Things like this.
The private sector doesn't do it.
And if private citizens don't care enough to do it.
Let me grab that soundbite.
It's in the first five.
Let me find the okay.
Let's see.
Because you got to hear this.
I played this in the first hour.
It is, what is it?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Here it is.
Number eight.
Listen to this.
Engineers, BP, unprecedented effort, no government involved here whatsoever.
Barack Obama does not understand a thimbles full of information or knowledge about oil, oil wells, offshore rigs.
He has the audacity to say only the government can take care of this except we're going to put the boot on the throat of BP.
Said this earlier this morning at the business council.
Government can build the infrastructure that allows products and services to reach customers.
Government can create incentives and clean energy, for example, that promote innovation and exports.
These things are public goods that no business, no individual is going to provide on their own, but that create a favorable environment in which everybody, companies across the country, can open and expand.
He does not know what he's talking about.
He's pure propaganda here, trying to sell the greatness of government.
It's not just enough to sell the greatness of government.
He's got to go out and trash the private sector.
Public good works.
Private individuals are going to do good works.
Corporations aren't going to do good works.
Only government will do good works.
Only government is good.
We are the good people.
Private individuals and private sector businesses are evil, and we're going to keep demonizing until everybody understands that they are the biggest problem the country faces.
Now, Politico.
White House in PR panic over spill.
The ferocious oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico threatening Obama's reputation for competence just as surely as it endangers the Gulf ecosystem.
Would somebody explain to me why he has ever had a reputation for competence when he's never done anything?
Now, I can answer my own question.
He has had a reputation for confidence because he's a clean, articulate black guy who doesn't speak with a Negro dialect.
Quote unquote, Harry Reid.
The way he speaks has conveyed confidence, has conveyed intelligence, refinement, erudition, sophistication.
He's a walking disaster.
The closest experience he has to this oil rig is Bill Ayers, because his buddy Bill Ayers knows how to blow things up.
All right.
Yeah, we had this soundbite a couple minutes ago.
I'm not going to go back to it.
Don't remember what number it was.
Don't remember where it was, but it was some expert saying that it takes 50 years for the environment to clean itself up after an oil spill.
And I said, we're going to sick our researchers on his to find out just how quickly and surprisingly quickly Prince William Sound rebounded.
And that has happened from NOAA.
Resiliency of the sound.
Recolonization of Herring Bay.
What we have found is that despite the gloomy outlook in 1989, the intertidal habitats of Prince William Sound have proved to be surprisingly resilient.
Many shorelines that were heavily oiled and then intensively cleaned now appear much as they did before the spill.
What's the date of this?
Well, I don't have the date, but whatever the date, it certainly isn't 50 years from 1989.
That's for damn sure.
Right, Larry?
All right.
Many shorelines, most gravel beaches where the sediments were excavated and pushed into the surf zone for cleansing have returned to their normal shape.
And sediment distribution patterns, beaches that had been denuded of plants and animals by the toxic effects of oil and by the intense cleanup efforts, show extensive recolonization and are similar in appearance to areas that were unoiled.
Then they have two pictures here of the Herring Bay shoreline, 1989, shortly after the spill.
And in 1996, seven years after the spill, the site was oiled but not treated.
So we're talking about 10 years.
10 years, not 50.
And so I think if a CNN goes out and finds these dip excrement experts, environmental experts, Lynn Baud, I don't know what he's talking about.
50 years at least.
Now, maybe warmer down in the Gulf, maybe not 50 years, maybe 40.
These people do not know what they'll the level of ignorance, disinformation, misinformation on purpose in the United States media is akin to medical malpractice.
This is no different than a doctor knowing that you need open heart bypass surgery, amputating your right foot.
That's one way of explaining what's happening here.
Aaron in Chicago.
I'm sorry, Chico, California.
Aaron, welcome to the EIB Network.
Nice to have you here, sir.
Rush, Frida Levin Dittos.
How are you today, sir?
Very well.
Thank you very much.
Thank you.
I saw a couple stories over the weekend that kind of confirmed a lot of what I suspected for a while.
And it was one that was from the Hill, both of them, that hedge funds give exclusively to Democrats, and that also the hedge funds will be given a pass in this latest reform bill.
And that actually drew something that reminded me of something that George Soros had said last year doing an interview with the Financial Times.
It was stated, the column was stimulus was a gift from the state.
But in that interview, he stated that the limits on pay would push risk takers out of places like Goldman Sachs into hedge funds.
And that would be a good thing.
But thereby taking everyone out of the market and going into hedge funds where the risk takers that these people that they're saying are the ones that caused all these problems are now going into the hedge funds.
And the reform bill is really tough on the banks and investment firms like Wall Street and whatever, but it's not on hedge funds.
And Carl Levin last week brought into the whole question of just the function of the stock market and its function as it relates to people investing and so forth.
I didn't know that the potential bomber was a hedge fund guy, nor I didn't know he had anything to do with the oil wells bill.
Well, I'm not referring to that, but just that's why I was having trouble.
No, I was referring to the financial assistant in general.
But with George Soros, just in general, in his involvement throughout hedge funds and his shorting of the market, which is what caused me to think about this stuff, and Goldman Sachs being the one that's being smeared, and they represent Wall Street.
But the real people who are the ones doing all the dealing of bad stuff and shorting were the hedge funds.
And that was Paulson and Company, or Paulson and Paulson and Company, who is actually a really big fundraiser.
And they are interrelated with George Soros and their group of the Open Society Institute, which I think you're familiar with.
I heard you refer to it a few times on the show.
Most everything I'm familiar with, including that, yes.
Yeah.
But George Soros has said himself that this financial crisis was the culmination of his life's work.
Yeah, we mentioned that last week.
And look, there's no question somebody's pulling Obama's strings on this.
Yeah.
Because this financial regulatory reform bill, let me just tell you something, folks.
Since we have swerved into that today, I would submit to you that there is not one Democrat member of Congress capable of writing it.
Because I don't think there's one Democrat in the Senate capable of understanding what the bill says.
Somebody else concocted this financial regulatory reform bill.
Somebody who will benefit from it.
These guys are not that.
They're United States senators.
The guy who wrote the bill had to get a deal on a loan from countrywide.
What does he know about the system except how to game it?
Well, where does this Conclusion that these people, even their staffs, know more than the people in the businesses they're regulating.
The SEC is out there watching porn.
The SEC knows that Bernie Madoff's doing what he's doing.
They didn't care.
Nobody is going to convince me that Christopher Dodd of waitress sandwich fame with Senator Kennedy has anywhere near the knowledge of how hedge funds works, Wall Street, the intricate financial system, put this bill together.
If he did, he wouldn't be earning $170,000 a year in the Senate.
He'd be earning $25 billion in a hedge fund and fighting this legislation.
This notion that these clowns are the experts on everything from health care to retail to oil to drugs, you name it.
Man, it offends the hell out of me.
They're not elected as the experts on all things in the private sector.
If they were, they'd be in the private sector doing those things.
You got a couple.
I Herb Cole owns a Milwaukee Bucks and he's got a department store chain or some sort of thing.
Lautenberg started automatic data processing, which is the paycheck unit that does all payroll processing for companies that sign up for it.
It's one of the many companies that do.
Paychecks is one.
But most of these clowns, Ken Salazar, his experience, what he knows about the interior could be encapsulated in how to create a barbecue fire when you're out camping in the woods.
And yet he's making decisions here on where we're going to have a windfill farm, windmill farm, and his decision just ramming it right down the throat of the Kennedy family, which did not want the windmill farm, where they live.
Salon.com from yesterday.
Headline, who's to blame for the oil spill?
Answer, Dick Cheney.
I predicted it.
Halliburton's involved.
Yep.
Right, right.
Here it is.
Is that not enough reason to blame the former dark lord of the Naval Observatory?
Guess what?
Halliburton is involved too.
The LA Times reports that BP contracted Dick Cheney's whole company to cement the deepwater drill hole.
Cementing the hole was, according to the U.S. Minerals Management Service, the single most important factor in 18 to 39 well blowouts in the Gulf over a 14-year period.
Halliburton, already under investigation for faulty cementing in an Australian well last year.
Don't doubt me on this, folks.
When I make these predictions, I know what I'm talking about because I know the people about whom I'm predicting.
A lot of dead sea turtles are turning up in Galveston, Texas, on the Texas shore, where the oil spill has not yet hit.
In fact, I got a couple emails.
One of the AP pictures of a dead sea turtle that they claim was poisoned by the oil well, Rush.
I'm a sea turtle expert like you are.
I don't have a foundation set up for them like you do, but I look at that picture.
That sea turtle's a freshwater sea turtle.
What's it doing in the Gulf?
Or it was one of the other.
It was a seawater turtle that found it in freshwater or something.
That turtle didn't die from oil.
These 30 turtles that died down in Galveston, Texas, in that area, there's no oil slick down there.
What's killing them?
Are people forgetting to turn off the lights or something down in Galveston?
Do they not have an ordinance down there?
I'm turning off the lights.
And I don't know, but I mean, there's all kinds of inexplicable stuff happening out there involving marine wildlife.
Obama seems to have a huge animus against these animals because he's doing nothing to stop this slick other than demonizing British petroleum for it by keeping the boot on their necks.
Back after this.
Hey, Associated Press story here by formerly nicotine stained fingers.
10 writers on this story.
It's Dateline New Orleans.
The headline attention shopper's Gulf Spill Could Affect You.
The calamitous oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, which is not Barack Obama's fault.
It doesn't say that, but I know they thought it when they wrote it, isn't just a mess for the people who live or work on the coast.
If you drink coffee, eat shrimp, if you like bananas, if you plan to buy a new set of tires, you could end up paying more because of the disaster.
The slick has forced the shutdown of the Gulf's rich fishing grounds.
Could also spread to the busy shipping lanes at the mouth of the Mississippi River, tying up the cargo vessels that move millions of tons of fruit, rubber, grain, steel, and other commodities and raw materials in and out of the nation's interior.
And by the way, they do that with diesel fuel, not wind turbines or solar panels.
The slick has forced all these problems.
Total shutdown of shipping lanes is unlikely that there could be long delays if vessels are forced to wait to have their oil-corded-coated hulls power washed to avoid contaminating the Mississippi River.
Some cargo ships might choose to unload somewhere else in the U.S.
That could also drive up costs because there would be ground shipping charges since they couldn't get to the port that they wanted to get to.
Claudio Soundbites, Douglas Brinkley, presidential historian, last night on CNN, Cooper said, leaving nature to take its course clearly doesn't make any sense here.
The disaster's been BP, and I think those two initials are the DDT of our era.
You need to think back in 1962, Silent Spring, a whole country woke up to what pesticides do to the environment.
That's what this spill is doing to the Gulf.
People are going to have to wake up anew.
Douglas, you're smarter than this.
Rachel Carson was the worst thing that ever happened.
DDT is the worst thing that ever happened to people because now they get malaria out the wild.
This is not, BP is not DDT.
And by the way, Mr. Cooper and the rest of you, go consult NASA, Prince William Sound in less than 10 years.
This was surprisingly pristine.
Everybody was shocked and stunned except me because I have a great awe and respect for the resiliency of this planet and ecosystem that I humbly know I have no say-so over.
I am but an occupant and a steward.
And then Doug Brinkley gets mad.
Cooper says, Doug, you wrote the definitive book on Hurricane Katrina.
A lot of people, conservatives, know the first.
You know, Anderson, you need to break out of the mold here, pal.
Go check your favorite site, Media Matters for America.
Media Matters for America, a blog at the Huffington Puffington Post.
Claims it's the mainstream media, guys like you, Anderson, that first came up with the phrase Obama's Katrina.
Not me.
But the truth doesn't matter.
Question, a lot of folks trying to say this is Barack Obama's Katrina.
Is there any comparison to that, Mr. Wizard of Smart, Doug Brinkley?
There's no comparison whatsoever between them.
This was a corporate bungle and might be three or four corporations by the end of the day of a deadly magnitude.
Katrina had an engineering failure, the levees in New Orleans, and this is also an engineering failure.
And there's a connection there, but the Obama administration has done nothing wrong.
This has been British Petroleum not having a plan A or a plan B or a plan C or a plan D for capping this.
They are winging it.
They're the only ones working on fixing it.
The Obama administration failed to follow a protocol established in 1994.
There were no booms to put out the flames on the surface, even though they've been recommended as far back as the Clinton administration.
Notice how far these statists go to exempt all of the rampant incompetence in government and try to pass all of the incompetence off on people in the private sector who do jobs that Douglas Brinkley wouldn't last five minutes in.
And now the lead spoke.
Well, it's a toss-up here between RFK Jr. and Al Gore.
We're still at CNN.
Larry King Live interviewed Robert Kennedy Jr.
And Larry King said, BP of the oil company says that while BP is responsible for dealing with the oil gushing, for cleaning it up, it's not responsible for the accident.
They note the rig which exploded and sank was run by TransOceans.
Said it was their people and their processes.
You agree with that, Robert?
The culprit that I think people are more focusing on today is Hal Burton, because Hal Burton actually poured the cement and the accident occurred as the cement filling of the casing was completed.
If the wrong cement is used, if it's poorly applied, it can lead to this kind of explosion.
And so Halbert now has become one of the major culprits.
Yeah.
So again, the template, no, these people, their brains have just stopped.
There's no inquiry or curiosity.
So, Halliburton, Halliburton, Haliburton, Haliburton, Haliburton.
It's all you have to do.
Halliburton's rig.
But then he wasn't through.
He was on MSNBC Live this morning.
Monica Novotny, the Infobabe, said, I want to get to the specific complaints in the lawsuit.
Quote, the fire, the explosion, the resulting oil spill caused by joint negligence and fault of the defendants.
What do you know, RFK Jr.?
What can you tell us about what went on there on that oil rig, which is absolutely nothing because he wasn't there?
But nevertheless, he endeavored to answer it.
This goes back to the kind of a lax attitude by the Minerals Management Agency during the Bush administration and by high levels of the Bush administration.
In 2003, the Bush administration, people within the Minerals Management Agency were urging the requirement for all Gulf oil rigs that a device called an acoustic regulator be put on the rig.
This is a device that can remotely shut down the rig and shut down the rig at the wellhead if there is an emergency.
The only device that was on this rig was a button device that had to be pressed by one of the workers, and that device was in a part of the rig that was in the centerpiece of the explosion.
And we can trace it back to Bush in 2003 to the lax attitude by minerals management agencies.
And of course, Monica Novotney is sitting there, oh yeah, nodding her head at all.
Oh, like she's listening to Albert Einstein explain the answer to this.
Oh, yeah, no doubt about it.
Arnold Schwarzenegger completes his conversion of full-fledged liberal oil at press conference at McClellan Airfield, Sacramento, yesterday.
I see on TV the birds trenched in oil, the fishermen out of work, the massive oil sleep destroying our precious ecosystem.
They will not happen here in California.
No, it will not happen in California.
I single-handedly will destroy the California economy.
Papers, please.
Papers.
Okay.
All right, folks.
For a while here, ever since Valentine's Day off and on, I've been extolling the virtues of Sherry's Berries.
Now, these are unique food items.
The largest strawberries I've ever seen, hand-dipped in chocolate, look like they've been painted by hand.
The delicious.
Needless to say, they're absolutely delicious and they are unique.
The great thing about the, I mean, you eat dessert every day, so you don't have to just buy these things for Mother's Day or Valentine's Day.
Sherry's Berries is something you could serve any day of the week without a special occasion.
Mother's Day presents a great opportunity.
And it's a relatively new product.
And we've got some testimonials from people.
At first, I heard about Sherry's Berries on the radio.
The Rush Limbaugh show, to be specific.
I kept hearing about it for a while, decided I wanted to do something different for my wife.
So I went ahead and I ordered the 12 chocolate-covered berries.
And to be honest, I wasn't expecting much.
You know, Rush talks a good game.
Even though I heard about the berries being fresh, I still kind of skeptical.
So the order came in on the right day, and I got to give kudos to you guys with the way it was carefully packaged and handled.
My wife was in complete amazement.
She loved the strawberries, and so did I.
They were huge.
They were fresh, juicy, and tasty at a great price.
So I would definitely recommend another one.
I will order the berries again.
My new wife thought they were great.
And I even tried the truffles.
If Rush says they're good, I'll try them because I trust Rush.
Well, that's really all you need.
Sherry's Berries.
Get a half dozen for $19.99 plus shipping or a full dozen for just $10 more.
Free premium toppings with each order.
RushBerries.com.
RushBerries.com or call 866-FRUT02.
Only $19.99 for a half dozen.
Premium, hand-dipped strawberries with free toppings only at rushberries.com.
You will be shocked.
You will be surprised at everything I say about them, how big they are, how delicious they are, and how perfectly packaged and how beautiful they are at the same time.
As I say, you eat dessert most every day.
These are a great thing to have on hand.
And whoever gets them, to whomever you serve them, will also want to know where you got them.
Back after this.
And we're back.
Rush Limbaugh here on the EIB network.
A good friend of mine just sent me a note too.
Rush Sherry's Berries.
My daughter says the best food she's ever put in her mouth.
Got them as an Easter gift for, I was insulted too, because our family is filled with outstanding cooks.
This bunch owns restaurants.
And a guy says his daughter said the Sherry's Berries were the best food ever.
Folks, crawl here on one of the drive-by news networks reporting that four suspects have been arrested in Pakistan in relationship to this bomb at Times Square.
There's no word on whether the four suspects were from Connecticut.
We're still waiting to hear whether these Pakistanis actually were from Connecticut.
This afternoon, at a press conference, Eric Holder, the attorney general, spoke about Faisal Shahzad, said this.
Shahzad has provided useful information to authorities.
We anticipate charging him with an act of terrorism transcending national borders, attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction, use of a destructive device during the commission of another crime, as well as assorted explosives charges.
Wait a second.
They're going to charge this guy with weapons of mass destruction?
And they give Saddam Hussein a pass on weapons.
Now, you think Saddam Hussein didn't have some gases and fertilizer himself?
So Faisal Shahzad had weapons of mass destruction, had one in Times Square.
Saddam never.
Bush lied.
And people died.
Got to hear this.
You know, Mahmoud Ahmadinezad went to the U.N. yesterday and said, the U.S., you need to be sanctioned and penalized because the U.S. threatens to use nuclear weapons.
Any nation that does that, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Today he's on a rant saying that the Zionists in Israel are like a rotting tree.
The next storm comes along, the tree is going to fall.
So last night, Charlie Rose interviewed Mahmoud Ahmadinezad.
And Rose said, why are you attacking the United States all the time?
Mr. Bush, how many threats have we got?
And we kept defending ourselves.
Where exactly have we attacked?
Mr. Bush is no longer president.
Mr. Bush is no longer presenting.
Charlie Rose, allow me, Mr. Charlie Rose.
Are there Iranian forces around U.S. borders or are there American troops around Iran's borders?
Are American troops attacking Iran?
Are American troops attacking Iran?
Oh, are you Bush?
Allow me.
Mr. Bush four times officially threatened Iran with a military attack.
Four times.
That's the official one.
And his policy, the policy was regime change in Iran.
He said it was a political political.
Mr. Bush is no longer president.
You need to stop suggesting that there is no difference between President Obama and President Bush.
You say that all the time.
Oh, come on, Mahmoud.
Come on, Mahmoud, please.
Can't you just stop criticizing Obama?
Obama, Bush?
Charlie Rose, his feelings are hurt.
Last night on PBS, he's not Bush.
Come on, Mahmoud.
He's not Bush.
Can't you say they're different guys?
It's laughable.
Here is Sherry in Kiln, Mississippi.
This is Brett Favre's place.
This is where Brett Favre lives.
Hello, Sherry.
Welcome to the program.
Hi.
Thank you for taking my call.
First time calling 20 years, over 20 years, trying to get on.
Here you are.
I have two comments.
Number one, this morning I was listening on Fox News with Bill Hemmer, and he was interviewing your senator, Bill Nelson.
And all he was worried about was his pristine beaches.
He never, and I have not heard any politician, including our president, mention the 11 men who died on that rig.
That is a good point.
That has been overlooked by a lot of people, that there were 11 deaths out there on that rig.
He did mention when Sarah Palin was speaking in New Orleans, he ran out because John Paul Stevens was retiring, but he did run out and mentioned about the 29 minors that were deceased.
Yeah.
And we're always, I'm sorry, it is Obama's fault and his staff.
And Ms. Napolitano, she looked like Governor Blanco from Louisiana, like a deer caught in headlights.
She does.
I mean, nobody looks more like a deer in the headlight eyes than Big Fist.
And I have one, I'll never go back to Florida.
I'm close to Florida, but I'll never go back.
I won't spend my money in Florida because of Mr. Nelson's instance.
Oh, come on.
He's an idiot.
Don't hold that against us.
He's another one of these leftist wackos who's taken the occasion of this oil rig accident to try to shut down all oil.
He's just a nutcase fruitcake liberal.
I'm surprised the guy ever passed astronaut school.
How can a full-fledged arch liberal be an astronaut?
Waste all that fuel, destroy the environment on the launch.
Anyway, Cherie, thanks for the call.
I appreciate it.
I got to go.
I would love to talk to her longer, but time just won't allow it.
Hey, guess what, folks?
This Faisal Shahzad has an MBA.
