Time Text
The uh views expressed by the host of this program now documented to be almost always right ninety-nine point six percent of the time.
Nobody even gets close to that.
Nobody ever will.
That's a record, and I'm not through establishing it, by the way, but that's a record that will not be broken.
Where else are you gonna go to get brilliant analysis off the top of the host's head like you get here?
Great to have you back, folks.
800-282-2882 if you want to be on the program.
Benjamin Netanyahu came out swinging, and I wish we had the uh the whole thing.
It's uh it went on about five or six minutes.
Uh we have uh we have one soundbite here, and it says that it's Benjamin Netanyahu through the translator.
Now, what I watched, it was Netanyahu speaking English.
So it may be, I haven't listened to this, it's gonna be either Netanyahu or the translator, but this is the portion of his speech where I mentioned he talked to all these world leaders.
What would you do if rockets are raining down on your city?
I forward my questions to the international community, and I asked all of the leaders throughout the wood whom I spoke to.
What would you have done if you were in our place and what would you have done in order to protect your civilians who are attacked by hundreds of rockets and missiles?
We all know the facts.
We all know the reality.
And therefore we will continue to protect our civilians.
We will continue to allow our soldiers to protect their lives.
And the state of Israel will continue to practice its right for self-defense.
Well, it was.
That was a translator.
I don't know what our guys are watching up there.
I was watching Fox, and it was Netanyahu is speaking English.
And I'm not that deaf, but I know how Netanyahu sounds, and this is not it's exactly what he said, so it's no big deal.
He also said, it seems like in the world today Israel is presumed guilty until it's found guilty.
Which is dead on right.
Uh it's it's uh it's the you know, the UN can't do anything about the oil spill, it can't do anything about Iran's nooks, the UN can't do anything about what's going on in Korea, they can't stop the uh Chicoms.
So let's focus on Israel.
Let's focus on the Jews.
Let's do that's what the UN's doing.
And of course, the administration is not uh not far behind.
Uh Snerdley just asked me, how does Obama plan on getting re-elected if he keeps on angering everybody?
Well, it's like I told you, Peter Ferrara today, the American uh spectator thinks he's not even gonna run.
He's gonna resign.
It's gonna get so disastrous out there that the Democrats are gonna make him quit.
Nobody, no Democrat's gonna get re-elected to anything by 2012 if uh if this guy keeps up, because everything is gonna be destroyed.
And Ferrara says that the Sestack thing could end up being bigger than Watergate.
You got you've got a genuine, genuine violation of the law here, and you've got a cover-up going on.
Uh and you know, it was it was I was it was all about Spectre.
I mean, we're you know, you get Spectre to change parties, and inspector changes parties so he can get re-elected.
He's gonna lose as a Republican.
And in Sestac gums up the works, you know what, I'm gonna run against Spectre in a primary.
So Obama says, No, you're not.
Look, I'm gonna make you Secretary of the Navy, that's one of the rumors.
Or I'm gonna put you on some presidential advisory board and Sestack blows cover by saying they offered me a job.
And then he shut up.
And the White House wouldn't say anything about it.
And then finally, last Wednesday, Clinton has lunch with Obama.
Then the next day Obama says, You're gonna get very shortly, they're gonna get our response.
The next day on Friday, we learned that Clinton was the one that passed the offer on the Sestack, and Sastock said, Yep, that's exactly what happened.
No accident that you picked Clinton to do this.
So anyway, um, I don't I your your question, you think you think Obama is angering who, though?
The Jewish people?
No way.
I don't I don't I haven't seen any erosion in polling support among Jewish voters for Obama.
That may be a trickle of it, but uh that expecting Jewish voters to defect from Obama Is the same thing as expecting the black voters to defect.
It ain't gonna happen.
They're liberals first.
Liberals, I don't care what else they are, are liberals first.
And whatever Obama's doing, I certainly, whatever Obama says or whatever he does, to some of these far-left Jewish people pales in comparison to what they think Republicans are all about.
So it is it is what it is.
Here's Obama is at Carnegie Mellon University this afternoon with a second phase of his economic program speech.
First phase, April of 2009, shortly after he had signed a porculus bill.
Now this guy showing up to make a speech on the economy and how to grow it and how to fix it.
Is like having Colonel Sanders show up and tell you how to extend the lives of chickens.
You know, it just doesn't fit.
Here's here's one of the things he said.
We have to build a new and stronger foundation for growth and prosperity.
And that's exactly what we've been doing for the last sixteen years.
How can you say that?
It's a foundation based on investments in our people and their future.
Where?
Investments in the skills and education.
We need to compete.
Where investments in a 21st century infrastructure for America from where high speed railroads to high speed internet.
Where?
Investments in research and technology, like clean energy that can lead to new jobs and new exports and new industries.
Where this new foundation is also based on reforms that will make our economy stronger and our businesses more competitive.
Where?
Reforms that will make health care cheaper, the financial system more secure, and our government less burdened with debt.
This is boilerplate.
This speech hasn't been revised since a campaign.
This is a campaign speech.
He doesn't even know what's going on out there, or he chooses to ignore it.
He thinks Bush is still president.
They're going to fix it.
They're going to plug the holes in the economy.
What is this absurd?
Health care cheaper?
Why the Heritage Foundation in their uh in their morning bell today, Obama's true costs coming to light.
We had the story earlier that uh some of the deadlines have already been missed.
Nobody knows what the hell's going on.
Um Obamacare has become the law of the land, the CBO now singing a slightly different tune last Friday.
CBO director Doug Elmendorf wrote this on his blog.
The central challenge is straightforward and stark.
The rising costs of health care will put tremendous pressure on the federal budget during the next few decades and beyond.
Yet Obama told us all during the Obamacare debate that the only way to bring the budget deficit down was to pass his stupid plan.
And now, after it's already become temporary law, the CBO tells us the truth, and yet he's out there in Pittsburgh.
I mean, that's this is pure boilerplate.
This is a speech he gave when the unemployment rec, when the unemployment rate was hovering around six.
Not ten.
We must build what is this?
We must.
You've been in office almost two years here, pal.
We must build a new stronger.
Where?
When are you gonna start?
We must invest in our people and their future.
When are you gonna start doing that?
Here's the one more bite we have of this.
We have been building this foundation without much help from our friends in the other party.
Oh, come on.
He said no to tax cuts for small businesses, no to tax credits for college tuition.
They did no to investments in clean energy.
They said no to protecting patients from insurance companies and consumers from big banks.
Well, that's before I was even inaugurated.
The congressional leaders of the other party got together and made a calculation that if I failed, they'd win.
Oh before we even had a health care bill.
A Republican senator actually said, if we're able to stop Obama on this, it will be his waterloop.
It will break him.
So those weren't very hopeful signs.
Hey, bud, uh, it wasn't anybody in the Congress who hoped you failed.
It was me.
Those guys were all appalled when I said it.
They about had cows out there.
Oh no!
Hillenboss said what I hope he fails.
Oh, gee, we do too, but we can't say it.
Well, I already had.
Uh no to tax cuts for small businesses.
There aren't any tax cuts for Small business.
There are no tax cuts, tax credits for tolerquiciers.
There's none of that.
I don't know.
We got a problem here, folks.
But nevertheless, I gotta tell you says, through his sheer incompetence.
Obama has brought liberals and conservatives together.
What he couldn't accomplish with claims to lower the seas, he has achieved by failing to keep them clean.
His Bay of Riggs continues to resonate and resonate when Obama's failure in his response to the Gulf Oil spill in the Bay of Riggs causes the likes of Maureen Modo Dowd, David Gurgen, Chris Matthews, and James Carville to agree with me that Obama is incompetent, and at long last we have bipartisanship in America.
We have consensus.
And note here that this consensus has come to me.
I have not abandoned any principle or position.
They are now agreeing with me.
Obama is failing.
He is incompetent.
Obama said he would be a post-partisan president.
And in his own unique way, he was right.
By the force of his incomparable incompetence, my friends.
Barack Obama has brought the right and the left together, at least in the media here.
Obama's failures are the glue that hold the political center together.
I like that line, don't you?
Obama's failures are the glue that hold the political center together.
It is now safe for moderates to say Obama is incompetent and a failure.
And the guy who paved the way for this was James Carvel, not me.
Carville.
You gotta get out here.
Well done down here.
I don't know what he's doing up there.
You gotta come down, you gotta take charge of this thing.
That told everybody else, okay, the coast is clear, you can pile on.
All the left is wait for somebody.
After Carvel did that, look what we got.
We got Matthews, we got Modo Dowd, we got Gergen.
Uh we got uh a whole bunch of people writing.
Uh we expected uh competence.
Okay, I have a quick timeout here, folks.
We'll take it, we'll come back.
There's there is I said there's no good news out there.
There actually is Christian Science Monitor.
In response to the controversial Arizona immigration law, Mexico has extended a repatriation program to help ease the transition of illegal migrants returning home to Mexico.
The government says the Arizona law could lead to a flood of returnees when it goes into effect.
Most Americans and most Mexicans, however, are skeptical.
This is in a response to the controversial new Arizona law, Mexico extending this program, meaning they're gonna give more money that helps citizens living illegally in the U.S. to return home.
It is working even before it is implemented.
And look at it this way, folks.
Amnesty is the single largest Democrat get out the vote drive in the history of the country.
That's what it is.
That's how you have to see it.
And now with this, the Democrats see all these potential voters returning home.
They don't dig it.
Let me ask you a question.
Why is there a why is there a a uh criminal probe?
A criminal investigation into British petroleum and this oil well leak, but there's not a criminal probe yet into the Sestaq affair.
And in the case of criminality, I'm not a lawyer, my dad was a lawyer, so it qualifies me to ask law questions and even answer them.
Who benefits from the crime that whatever crime has been committed here?
Who benefits from this?
Who benefits from the oil spills?
Somebody tell me.
The only beneficiary in a perverted sort of way is Obama.
Because he got to announce all offshore drilling ceased.
He's gonna kill an industry.
It's it it.
I don't know, folks.
Weird things.
Carbonite plotits keep coming.
And I took the other day, I gotta repeat the story.
Friend of mine over at the House said, what do you do to back up?
He said, just got a laptop, got a Mac, he's got a laptop, and he started putting pictures on it and so forth, and what do you do to back up?
What should I get?
And I said, Well, I think you gotta do two things.
You gotta you got one hard drive in your laptop, so you can't back up to the life you you can't put a backup there.
Uh so get an external hard drive and just make a mirror image.
Just clone it.
Clone your hard drive and just do that every so often and make a specific backup file, the things you think are important, your pictures, whatever else you put on there.
But even but after you do that, you gotta use carbonite.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's what it I was what I was looking for.
That's what you keep talking about, right?
I said, Yes.
Is carbonate backs it up off site.
You do it online.
Every time you're on the internet, the backup happens.
It may take a while for your initial backup, depending on how many files you have to back up the size of it, because upload speeds being what they are.
It's not, you know, it's just it's it's a factor of your internet speed connection.
Uh my initial backup here at the studio took a couple weeks because I have loads and loads of data.
But once it's done, it's incremental.
It only backs up the changes and it happens every time.
You don't even know it all happens in the background.
And it doesn't cost very much.
Umlimited backup for your PC or Mac is just fifty-five dollars a year.
Carbonite.com is where you go to do it.
If you use the offer code Rush, they'll give you a genuine fifteen day free trial.
If you sign up, you get the first two months free.
So it's actually less than fifty five dollars.
Carbonite back it up and get it back.
And don't forget at Carbonite.com to use the offer code Rush.
This is Diane, Mettery, Louisiana.
Great to have you on the program.
Hi.
Hi, Mr. Limar.
Thank you so much for taking my call.
Yes.
I'm a nurse um here.
I don't work at work full time, but in the hospital that are work uh in they're cutting back nurses' hours and um down to thirty-six, forty forty, thirty-six.
And I also heard in another hospital in the city that they laid off a lot of nurses.
And I uh I've been asking the managers what's the reason, and they said it's because um the doctors aren't being reimbursed in terms of their Medicare reimbursements.
And I have a question as to how I I I suspect this has a lot to do with Ob Obamacare, but um if you could explain to me and to others if if that's the case, and I'd like if somebody else could call in, I'd like to know if this is going on also with the rest of the country, because also they're not hiring new nurses.
So nurses graduating from nursing school are not getting jobs.
Well, this is not just uh uh exclusive to nurses.
There are a lot of people graduating not getting jobs just because of the general state of the economy.
But don't worry about it because Obama's out there investing uh in in a new economy that will not have any of these bad things ever happen to it again.
You just gotta be patient, ten or twenty years uh for this to take hold and this uh this this reform to work.
Uh and and then everything was gonna be fine.
Well let me uh let me ask you are you are you represented by a union like the SEIU or anything?
No, thank goodness.
Uh I would if I never wanted to be a part of a union because uh forty years ago when I became a nurse, I saw it coming down the road.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Um and in fact there is the I'm not gonna go into details, but I suspect there was a union I mean it um some employees of an area hospital were probably union members because when I taught nursing school, a lot of these people were gone when the nursing students showed up on the phone.
The reason I asked the question is that uh in addition to the general economy, it could well be that the Service Employees International Union is exerting pressure that uh you know, non unionized nurses don't get hired, non unionized hospitals are gonna get creamed and uh uh this kind of it look at with these people involved, uh y you never know what's possible.
So you gotta throw that in the mix of things that might be the explanation.
That does make sense to i to push us to join a union, uh oh, it would be a devastation.
I just um I mean against this from the beginning, and I've been outspoken about it at work, and there are a lot of people at work that agree with me, but they just don't they're not as outspoken as I am uh because they're full time employees.
But um that that does make a lot of sense to me about SEIU.
Uh uh probably start being out I should be start being expoped and if I spoke about that.
Yeah.
Well, uh it's a sad reality, but it's one that exists out there today with uh uh any time a question of unionized employees or unionized shop comes up, uh, or non unionized in the in your case, you still have to examine what pressure is being brought to bear on management at these places.
Uh we are a right to work state.
Um we do have we a long time ago that passed.
So um everybody has a right to work.
In other words, you don't have to join a union to get a job, thank goodness.
But uh it's pretty scary.
Uh it really is.
Um and I and I see, you know, what's gonna happen is that uh the census is low because this is what they're saying.
The census is low, so they don't need the nurses as much, so that means the patients are going home a little more sick than usual.
Um you mean the census is low.
Well, it in summertime, usually there's a lot of surgeries because kids well uh people out at, you know, can have surgeries like the surgeries on vacation, that sort of thing.
But um that's that's what's being told to me in there in terms of the floor um uh load, patient load, the sensitivity low.
That's what's being told.
So my impression is if that's the case, then these people are going home sicker and not getting treated as long as they should be.
Of course, they give the excuse of decreased in infection, you know, in the hospital, which is just a precursor of what's gonna be happening everywhere once this Obamacare gets fully implemented.
Exactly.
Because exactly what I think.
What you're talking about simply lack of funds, right?
I mean, they don't have the money, the p patients can't pay.
The hospitals can't afford to pay it and absorb it.
The doctors aren't being reimbursed.
So what do you do?
You ration care.
You ration the nurses.
Hello, Obamacare.
Sounds like we got an advanced picture of it right here.
Man, I thought we were gonna do a timber update there.
I was scrambling through the stacks of stuff looking for some wood news.
Welcome back.
Uh great to have you.
By the way, Snerdley, I forgot to tell you, folks, I've I read I read the book about me.
I read I read it, I read it, I downloaded, I got it at the iBook uh store for the iPad.
I had the hardcover copy, of course, but I read it on my iPad.
And I um I read the whole thing in one sitting.
I had forgotten so much of the stuff that happened to me.
I well, it's just so much.
Snerdly, there is so much.
I mean, this guy starts back in uh junior high school, goes forward, even well, even before that.
It's not a f well, I uh now he's asking me what I forgot.
Um I don't know.
I not yeah, I forgot it again.
I just it's it's why there's a memory division here at the EIB network.
But seriously, it was uh I it's weird reading about yourself and liking it.
Uh it's there was there's no malice in the book at all.
Um for only getting sixteen hours with me, Zeb Chapitz did a great job.
I mean, he's he's uh uh I mean the only person that can really write a thorough biography of me is me, but this is not really just a biography.
It's being it's being categorized as a biography.
It's got some biographical stuff in it, but it's it's it's more about well you I don't want to you read it.
It because but it's actually good.
I even got a note from uh Diana Schneider, the editrix.
Uh at the uh at the limbaug letter.
No malice makes Chaffetz unique, clearly eager to get it right as best he could.
Uh and it's uh as one is such one could say it's an aspirational work.
Uh she was very complimentary about uh about most of it.
I mean, there's some things that I wish weren't there where not nobody's proud of everything they've done, but it is what it is.
Oh, come on.
Oh, snurdly.
It's the first spin the bottle up.
Uh that's one thing I'd forgotten about.
The f my first time spinning playing spin the bottle, I I was I was stood up when I won.
And that and so Zeb speculates who was the woman, who was the girl?
And he gets it wrong.
I know who the girl was.
But he didn't even ask me about this.
I never told him about this episode.
So he obviously was trolling around Cape Girardeau when he came across the story.
So it's apparently it's people still remember this.
Well, you're surprised I'm admitting it.
I didn't tell him, but he found out about it.
So well, Cape's a small town, and uh there's not a whole lot memorable there that goes on.
And this may have been one of those memorable things.
Now, what's going to happen now is since I've announced it publicly, is that every girl I ever knew back then is going to say she's the one.
So it it it's going to start a big trend here.
It's the way these things happen to work.
He also, it in my second uh undeniable 35 unitable truths of life, the revision to the original.
He he goes through those and he offers his analysis or comment each one.
And there's one that he doesn't get that I think is brilliantly prescient from 1994.
It's number 31 from the revised 30 or the of the uh the uh second 35 undeniable truths of life, and it's this.
The culture war is between the winners and those who think they're losers who want to become winners.
The losers think the only way they can become winners is by banding together all the losers and then empowering a leader of the losers to make things right for them.
Sheffett's comments is I'm uh even I'm not sure what I mean by this.
Uh I know exactly what I mean by this.
It's it's exactly what Barack Obama is.
This is 1994 when I said when I wrote this.
But what I was doing is accurately describing what would ultimately be Obama's agenda, returning the nation's wealth to its quote unquote rightful owners.
The culture war between the winners and those who think they're losers who want to become winners, and same time want to punish the winners.
But anyway, it's called Rush Limbaugh, an army of one.
Uh I don't know how many of you have had books written about you.
And it's one thing to read totally erroneous newspaper stories and website stories or TV news reports about yourself.
But it's another thing to uh to read a book about yourself and keep turning the pages.
I was I was I actually was somewhat fascinated by it.
Uh anyway, that's that.
I I'm what's uh I think it was four and a half hours, it's two hundred and some odd pages, two hundred and seventy pages.
You know, with the it's you can set the font size on this I can.
These are it's it's it's it's really cool.
Just zip through the pages.
Uh I think it actually improves uh my reading speed and uh and comprehension.
Anyway, we here's one more Benjamin Netanyahu sound bite.
And this is apparently what he did, he spoke in Hebrew and then followed it up in English.
Uh CNN carried the Hebrew translated version, Fox carried the English version uh from Netanyahu, and this is Netanyahu's own words, I love this bite.
This wasn't a love boat.
This was a hate boat.
These weren't pacifists, they weren't peace activists.
These were violent supporters of terrorism.
I think that uh the evidence that the lives of the Israeli seamen were in danger is crystal clear.
If you were a fair-minded observer and you look at those videos, you know this simple truth.
But I regret to say that for many in the international community, no evidence is needed.
Israel is guilty until proven guilty.
Benjamin Netanyahu today.
Uh addressing the media and others on the the so-called love boat flotilla off the coast of uh Gaza.
All right, quickly to the phones.
Oak Park, Illinois, this is uh Louis uh is it Louise or Lucy?
It's Louise.
Hi, Rush.
Hi, how are you?
Oh, so wonderful to talk to you.
Thank you.
You know, um, you are to um we are uh the godfather of the conservative party and the airways, and uh you are Don Rush.
Don Rush, yes.
And you know Don is a uh term of endearment and respect for remarkable man.
That's what Don means.
So you're done.
But uh I called to agree with you, Don, about uh the uh Tipper Gore divorce.
And I think it's an agreement between the two of them to protect uh Gore's fortune.
Somehow, you know, like if uh Tipper gets uh uh a great deal of money on that, who knows what what would happen to his fortune if all of this uh global warning things go wrong.
You know what I mean?
Well, they wouldn't have to get divorced for that.
Well, somehow I don't know if his fortune would be at risk somehow in his name.
And if they put a whole bunch of it in uh Tipper, but no no no no no no, he's a s Tipper spouse, he could give her any amount of the portfolio, put it in her name.
He could put it all in her name, but he could take whatever's not invested in the hoax.
But I somehow think they didn't grow apart because they loved each other too much.
You know what I mean?
That's all we're hearing on the airways, how much they loved each other.
Even Diane Sawyer, the other what was it, last yesterday or something?
They showed them kissing and hugging at that event.
Yeah, I remember that at the uh Democrat convention out there in uh Los Angeles.
Uh it's kind of sad to see that happening.
And but I agree.
Well, it is.
I mean, it d people have been married forty years.
It is kind of sad to see them break it.
Because you know, it it doesn't make sense.
The key word rush is money.
Whatever whichever way it goes.
I think it's to protect his fortune somehow.
Or uh well, yeah, that's not exactly my theory.
You said you were calling to agree with my theory.
Yeah, with something to do with money, that's all I know.
Well, my my theory, I don't need to go through it again, but but my theory basically was if you're gonna get divorced after 40 years, it can't all have been hunky-dory, but you hang in there for various reasons.
The kids Yeah.
I would hate to think it's it's an affair.
I really would.
But you know, that's just I mean, that that that that's the stuff a nightmare is.
Oh, right.
That that that wouldn't compute.
I totally agree.
All right, brief time out here, uh, folks, back with more after this.
This next headline and story reminded me of something.
It's an AP story out of Havana.
Fidel Castro claims uh Obama is living in a fantasy world.
Fidel Castro speculated today that a nuclear strike on Iran might help Obama win a second term.
Also suggested a UI United States could attack North Korea.
A Cuban leader who's not been seen in public in four years, said the president's a victim of fantasies, planted in his mind by sinister advisors.
That headline, uh Obama claims Obama lives in fantasy world.
Who is it that brought in James Cameron for advice on this oil will leak?
Was it the f somebody has our federal government reached out to a movie producer who makes movies about the Titanic in a big giant tank of water?
They brought in James Cameron, who also made a movie about blue people.
He has experience with deep water film.
Well, I know he has experience deep water filming, he's been down there to the Titanic and somebody.
So they brought him in with uh to ask him on what he would do about stopping the oil leak.
Yeah.
Well uh you know, if you remember that that the TV show 20,000 leagues under the sea with Richard Basehart, the admiral of that submarine whatever b uh too bad that the sea th th that sea hunt, right?
The voyage at the bottom of the sea, that's right.
Um whatever it was, if Richard Bayshart were still alive, and David David uh Hilverson, Helverson, whatever, those guys could be brought in to testify too, because they they fought off giant squids down there.
Uh knew all about that.
Uh workers who obtain jobs with other people's social security numbers.
Happens all the time.
It wreaks havoc on your taxes, your credit history.
Identity thieves can also file false workers' compensation claims using a swipe number, and they have access to more and more social security numbers.
Uh identity theft, particularly now during economic uh crises continues to spike upwards.
People don't even think about it happening until it does, and then it is just abject hell.
You lose your uh it it's you well, you don't want it to happen to you.
You d you can walk into the bank where they know you personally and you can't do anything because your identity's been stolen, your bank accounts have been emptied.
Uh it's it's a m.
And there's a the best way to stop it from happening is life lock.
They are the absolute best to protecting your identity, No need to go any place else.
They protect your in uh your information that you give them.
They will not sell it to anybody.
Uh they have the best identity alert system out there.
Just call 1-800-440-4833.
And if you mention my name, you'll save 10%.
Lifelock is 800-440-483.
All right.
Audio sound by 16.
I've been promising the broadcast engineer to get to this for the last couple of hours.
Jan Brewer, the governor of Arizona, was on CMN John King, USA last night.
And uh he asked her a number of questions.
One one of which was okay, so uh 1200 National Guard troops coming your way.
What do you know or do you know about this?
The only way that I've ever heard that I'm getting it is through the news.
I haven't received anything formally, I haven't received any letters, any phone calls.
No one has contacted my uh tag uh there in the state of Arizona, General Salazar.
So I mean I'm sitting here with no really good information.
It would be very helpful, I might say, if somebody would give me something in writing, telling me what they're sending to Arizona, how is it going to be distributed?
Is it gonna go to Texas and California and Arizona and New Mexico?
Is it all coming to Arizona?
We would be grateful if it were uh, you know, what exactly are their plans?
And that's one reason why I need to sit and I need to talk to them.
I need information.
So John King said, what if the president pressed you?
What if what if you came away saying, okay, not everything I want, but it's a pretty good down payment.
What if he said, Governor, give me a chance, ask your legislature to delay implementation of this law?
Give me three months, give me six months.
Are you open to that?
No, I think I don't think it's a matter of trusting him or not.
I think that what we've done, we've mirrored a federal law.
I think the people of Arizona, uh, certainly people uh throughout America agree uh that it is the right thing to do.
Uh we've been down this path before with securing our borders in Arizona, um, and uh nothing uh was uh finished.
And so we need to move forward.
Uh, you know, it's trespassing when you cross the border into Arizona, uh, into the United States.
It's trespassing.
We need our borders secured.
Okay, and one more.
Uh this is uh John Kingston.
Let me ask you in closing.
When you sit across the table from the president, what's your number one I don't know what it called, demand or request?
What is it?
Mr. President, we need our borders secured.
How can we work together to get it done?
We need your help.
We've been putting up with this for eight, ten years.
We need it now.
We can't we can't tolerate it any longer.
We cannot tolerate it.
America can't tolerate it any longer.
And if his answer is, I'm going to do what I announced, but your law is misguided, and my Justice Department might sue you.
I would say, well, we'll meet you in court.
I have a pretty good record of winning in court.
This governor, this governor is awesome.
So we got Jan Brewer out there, and we got Governor Chris Christie showing the way how to deal with this regime.
Kudos to Governor Jan Brewer in Arizona.
Uh one more, you gotta hear this.
Paul McCartney of the Beatles.
Yesterday in Washington held a press conference.
He's getting uh an award, the third Library of Congress Gershwin Prize, and he was talking about playing at the White House, performing at the White House in front of President Obama.
It makes it very special.
So the White House, um particularly um with this president.
I must say, you know, I'm a big fan.
He's a great guy.
So lay off him.
He's doing great.
That's right.
Lay off him.
He's doing great.
Paul McCartney of the Beatles.
But he did go on to say that the uh oil spill is a disgrace.
Anyway, folks, uh, we are out of busy broadcast moments for this segment, but I have to share with you some news.
And that is I'm gonna be gone uh from tomorrow until the fifteenth.
So who we got guest hosting tomorrow, HR and Friday.
Do you Mark Belling for the next two days and be all out all next week and Monday the 14th because we're picking up a new puppy, another old English sheepdog.
Uh to create even more havoc in the household for pumpkin.
Anyway, back close it up right after this.
Well, another exciting excursion.
Did you figure out that case?
You figured out how to use it?
They're on the instructions with it.
You figure out what to do with a flap?
All right, good.
Another exciting excursion at a broadcast Excellence has come to a screeching halt.
