Time Text
Folks, just chuck it all.
You don't have to watch the State of the Union show tonight.
You got me on TV tonight.
On the Haney Project on the Golf Channel at 9 o'clock tonight.
And if this episode is what I think it is, those of you who don't like me are gonna love this episode.
This episode tonight was one of two literal boot camp sessions that I had with Hank Haney.
One in Dallas and one here in Palm Beach.
Both of them were five hours, not one break with one club.
Seven iron or an eight iron.
Blisters, hell yes, I got blisters, scabs, calluses, yes.
The s yeah, it was not fun because I wasn't doing well.
No, no, no.
I'd have had the sweat was rolling off my face.
Haney was not happy with me.
I was ticked off it myself.
Oh, I mean, this this episode tonight is where the actual instruction begins.
This episode tonight is where basically Haney says, we gotta start all over.
We gotta pretend you've never played the game before.
Well, I have 13 years of playing the game, and I had to physically mentally scrub it.
And there's always resistance to that.
So uh this begins.
This episode tonight begins the actual intense instruction leading up to a you just don't want to miss episode five.
Two weeks from tonight.
But this is episode three tonight.
As I said yesterday, I calculated it.
I I knew this episode was gonna air tonight, obviously.
I knew it was gonna be two days after the uh NFL championship game, so I wore my Steelers jersey, taping this episode way, way back in uh in the fall.
So I'm up there, I'm wearing old L Rushball home jersey number one, black Steelers jersey number one.
And Haney wasn't even happy with that.
He thought it wasn't taking a game seriously, showing up in a in a uh in a football jersey.
Anyway, that's at 9 o'clock tonight on the golf channel.
Welcome back, Rush Limboy, and this is the EIB Network.
Our telephone number if you want to be on the program, 800 282-2882, email address L Rushbow at EIBNet.com.
Folks, I know I speak for all of you.
And we had this last caller, he's been paying attention to politics for two years.
And he's tired of all the bickering.
And he said, we just want everybody to get along, and we want there to be no division between rich and poor.
Well, that's really how's this gonna happen?
Um, sir, are the rich just gonna give up their money or are the poor gonna go find the pot of gold?
How does it how does it uh how does it happen?
Who's gonna sit there and determine what everybody has, what everybody gets.
But I know I speak for all of us, ladies and gentlemen.
I I I would submit, folks, that I and I'm I'm being serious about this.
I think I've probably done more to bring Americans together over the last 20 plus years than Obama has.
Obama has come to divide, and he has succeeded.
This country's never been more divided.
Well, throw out the civil war, but in modern times, this country has never been more divided.
It really gets tiresome to be constantly accused of spreading negativity about Obama and the country.
He's doing that on his own.
We just chronicle it here.
Has everybody forgotten the media, the Democrat drumbeat for the last eight years prior to Obama's immaculation?
Where were the complaints about negativity then?
I mean, back in the last eight years prior to 2008, we had a political party in this country rooting for America to lose that war.
We had a Senate majority leader happily proclaiming this war has lost.
This war has lost we had Democrats accusing General Petraeus of lying before he had said a word in joint congressional and house hearings.
Besides our criticism or our reporting of the facts, has helped lead to the only hope that we now have.
The turnaround in November and the victory of the Tea Party, which, which I might interject here, if there is a common enemy in Washington among those who will sit together tonight, it is the Tea Party.
So Let me say that again a little louder.
If there is a common enemy in Washington, among those who will sit together tonight, it is the Tea Party.
The Democrats don't like the Tea Party because the Tea Party engineered their defeat.
The Republicans, some Republicans don't like the Tea Party because the Tea Party illustrates what they have to do to win.
Really comfortable with that.
If it weren't for ours and other people's voices, what do you think Obama would be talking about tonight?
You think Obama would even be pretending to move to the center?
If there hadn't been any successful opposition, what would Obama be talking about tonight?
He would I shudder to think what he would be talking about.
By the way, the Illinois Supreme Court has put Rom Emanuel back on the ballot.
Did you have any doubts?
Were you living out there with a false hope that this was actually going to hold up?
Less than 24 hours, the Illinois Supremes have put Rom Emanuel back on the mayoral ballot in Chicago.
By the way, one other thing here.
This ribbon tonight, the black and white ribbon.
This is the idea of Debbie Wasserman Schultz and Michael McCall, Republican Texas, Wasserman Schultz from Florida and Boca.
The um ribbon already exists.
The black and white ribbon.
Look this up during the break.
It's a pretty dirty trick to steal the official ribbon of carcinoid cancer.
And carcinoid cancer occurs in the stomach.
It usually affects midgets and dwarves, and I'm not making this up.
And they have a ribbon.
And their ribbon is black and white.
You talk about a lull blow.
Here you have midges and dwarves.
They have their own ribbon for carcinoid cancer.
Well, what wait a minute.
Sorry, I apologize.
I was misreading.
It's honestly I was misreading.
It's mid-gut.
With a locate, not midget.
It has nothing to do with midgets and dwarves.
It's mid-gut.
And I read it real fast.
It's mid-gut.
There's no midgets had their ribbons stolen.
Strictly carcinoid cancer.
Sufferers have had their ribbon stolen.
That's black and white ribbon.
That is a.
That is a that is a low blow.
It just it's cancer in the mid-gut, not midgets.
It's a mistake anybody could make reading fast.
That's what happens here, folks.
You do show prep while performing the show.
Show prep while doing the show.
Read fast words come together.
Sometimes they don't come together the right way.
At least in a live program like this, we have the opportunity to fix it as soon as the mistake has been made.
This is from the uh all headline news.com website.
Access to home indoor heating may be contributing to the obesity problem in the United States, the United Kingdom, and other developed countries, according to a new study.
University of College London researchers said in a statement that reduced exposure to cold may impact the body's ability to maintain a healthy weight.
They said indoor heating minimizes the need for energy expenditure to stay warm, reduces the body's capacity to produce heat.
As more people in the developed world have indoor heating, the population is wouldn't the time for this story be to about A hundred years ago.
It could also be making us heavier.
Well, I would, yeah, if it contributes to obesity being heavier would seem to be right in line with that.
Increased time spent indoors, widespread access to central heating and air conditioning, increased expectations of thermal comfort, all contribute to restricting the range of temperatures we experience in daily life, and reduce the time our buddies spend under mild thermal stress, meaning we burn less energy, said the lead researcher Dr. Fiona Johnson in a statement.
A report on the study is published in the journal Obesity Reviews.
Ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha!
Ahem!
Okay, it has just been said to me that all of this makes sense.
That people move faster when it's cold.
Okay, fine.
Then if it makes sense, what is our next step?
If all of this makes sense, if indoor heating contributes to obesity, and if obesity is the number one problem facing the country's kids, the next step is not to call Michelle Obama, because if you do that, your heating will be taken away from you.
so Well, we are good, we're going to get government-regulated thermostats.
But that's look at they're talking about indoor heating, not a little or a lot.
They're just talking about the existence.
In order for this theory, if you take this out to the logical conclusion, you got to get rid of furnaces.
And well, uh kids in the street are known to have the problem.
They don't they don't have any indoor heating.
They're already saving the planet by freezing out there.
Uh these pe people are dead serious.
Well, furnace tax.
That that could be a setup to a furnace tax.
Who knows?
It is from the uh College of London.
Price drop points to likely double dip in the housing market.
This is some CNBC.
Uh single family home prices fell for the fifth straight month in November.
Double dip in home prices could be confirmed by spring.
Standard and poor is case Schiller Composite Index at 20.
Metropolitan areas declined 0.5% in November from October on a seasonally adjusted basis.
Uh let's see.
No, Obama, what's he going to be?
What is his theme tonight?
Looking to the future?
What is the theme about the future tonight?
The State of the Union?
Something about the future.
I forget what the exact phrase is.
He's lost the future for millions of homeowners, is what this means.
And I remember economists predicting Obama's policies would fail, and Obama exceeded their expectations.
You know, before it's all said and done with, we're all going to be living like his brother in a hut.
Is it civility for Obama to continually lie to promise the same things he's promised us last year and the year before?
Jobs, jobs, jobs, shovel ready, shovel ready, shovel ready, earmarks, spending freezes, all of these things he's promised before.
Where is the civility in misleading the people?
By the way, Fox News, ladies and gentlemen, is reporting eleven policemen have been shot in the past 24 hours.
I was nowhere near any of the crime scenes.
Eleven policemen shot the past 24 hours.
Is that somehow due to the Tea Party?
Eleven policemen shot in 24 hours.
Is that due to all the right-wing rhetoric from Sarah Palin?
And talk radio?
I haven't heard anybody make the charge.
By the way, jobs.
Obama mentioned jobs 29 times in last year's State of the Union.
What good did it do?
Mentioned jobs 29 times.
He's mentioned it much more than that outside the state of the jobs.
That's our focus now.
Had a job summit in March of 2000, or December 2009, had a jobs summit.
Or was it, yeah, March of 2000, uh December 2009.
And I remember them said job summit, the focus was not on creating new jobs.
They actually said that, but they had a job summit.
And I know I saw it in Thomas L. Friedman was there.
The columnist for the New York Times is at the job summit.
Yeah, one of them was laser-like and focus.
Laser like focus on jobs, exactly right.
So the phones to Huntington Beach, California.
Hi, Dave.
Welcome to the Rush Limbaugh program.
Hey, Rush.
I'm uh honored to speak with you, very nervous.
Well, thank you very much, sir.
But you don't need to be nervous, really.
Uh this is a very pleasant experience.
Okay, and you anyways, then you remember the old Statue of Liberty playing football?
Absolutely.
Okay, what you got uh now is for two years the Tea Party has had both uh Democrats and most Republicans scratching their heads.
And this is what I call the civility play.
They're trying to quiet down the Tea Party and put us back in our place.
Well, that's what you think all the sitting together at the State of the Union is about.
Yeah, it's a way to uh move the conversation in a different direction.
Uh you may have a point.
I I I just said that I think one of the things that those sitting together tonight probably agree on is the Tea Party.
The Washington establishment does not like the Tea Party.
I mean, you have Obama doing the State of the Union.
You've got Paul Ryan doing the Republican response, and Michelle Bachmann doing the Tea Party response, which is quite telling.
Some are mad at Bachman for doing it, I know.
Some are very mad at Bachman uh for doing this.
So but we know this.
I mean, we've we know that the uh the Tea Party is uh for all these people, don't you love it?
All these politicians that love to run around and campaign as outsiders, anti-establishment.
I'm not part of that Washington culture.
Well, then join the Tea Party.
Because that's who's really anti-establishment.
That's who's really a bunch of outsiders is the Tea Party.
But you don't see those politicians who want to be considered outsiders joining or embracing the Tea Party, do you?
Tea Party represents a uh threat.
None of the networks are covering Bachman's response except CNN, which sorry for her means it won't be seen.
CNN is the only network covering the Tea Party response to the State of the Union night.
Andy, in Brooklyn.
I'm glad you waited, sir.
You were next on the Rush Limbaugh program.
Hi.
Puerto Rican Dados, Rush.
Thank you, sir.
Okay, um part of the trick uh proposed by the National Socialist Party tonight at the State of the Union is to slap the Tea Party in the face.
Um they want to get the Republicans to sit on their side and say, look, they're stupid.
They voted for you, they didn't know what you're doing.
You come over here and you sit with the winners because those idiots didn't know what they were doing.
And the Republicans are going right with it.
They're slapping the Tea Party right in the face.
Well, some are.
We don't know how many Republicans actually have a date tonight uh with a Democrat.
We don't know how many there are.
But uh is too many.
Yeah, but but you're the you're the second guy now.
You're the second guy to call and suspect that really the objective of this is uh a uh a slap at the Tea Party.
I still, folks, if you if you weren't here for the first hour, Paul Ryan from Wisconsin is going to do the Republican reply tonight, response to Obama, as is being ripped to shreds already by the Democrats and by the media as a guy who wants to end social security.
Is a guy who wants to end Medicare.
Paul Ryan is being talked about as a guy who wants to literally cause old people to die.
Now I want to know what Democrat's gonna sit next to this monster tonight.
At the State of the Union show, because that's how they are portraying him.
Here's Ray in Livermore, California.
Hey Ray, what's up?
How are you?
Very good, we're on the triple program.
Thank you.
Um I I called about uh Obama's call for innovation and invention, but real quick on the ribbons.
I have a suggestion for ribbons today.
Republicans can take a two-foot piece of yellow ribbon and pin it at the top of their shoulders, in the other end down around their belt line on their back.
Because the only ribbon is a big yellow striped down their back.
Are you on a speakerphone?
Uh yeah, let me uh let me get off it.
Yeah, because all the other iPhone.
Can you hear me, Ross?
Uh yeah, but we're also hearing all the other room noise.
It sounds like you're actually putting on that ribbon as you describe it to us.
So they need a yellow ribbon running from the top of their shoulders down their back to their belt line.
And uh if they're gonna sit with the Democrats.
Uh Pelosi is basically Lucy in the peanuts holding the football, and the Republicans are Charlie Brown and they're about to fall again.
Yeah.
Um to the innovation part of his speech and the inventions, as long as you're inventing another Chevy Vault that goes forty miles, or some windmills or solar panels.
Those are the innovations and inventions Obama's interested in.
If I were to create a carbon-eating gas-powered V8 that gets five hundred miles or five hundred horsepower and a hundred miles per gallon, I don't think Obama would be invent uh interested in that invention.
And I'd like to get your I think Yeah, I I know exactly what you're saying by that.
And I think you're you're probably right.
Uh Obama's innovation isn't innovation.
There's a innovation, uh, inventions, investments.
All this translates to spending.
That's all it means.
It's it's just excuses for more government spending.
Don't forget the guy, UK telegraph yesterday, who wrote accurately about this.
This is simply a State of the Union with a push for more spending.
More government spending, bigger government.
Using the same theories that the previous spending bills had to underlie them.
Spending equals economic growth, spending equals jobs, spending equals economic recovery.
That's how it's going to be spun.
They know the purpose of this spending, and it's it's not helpful for the country by design.
And greetings and welcome back, Rush Limbo.
Half my brain tied behind my back, just to make it fair, to telephone number if you want to be on the program at 800 282-2882, the email address L Rushbo at EIBNet.com.
I meant to touch on this yesterday, and there was just uh there was a lot going on.
State dinner last week, honoring the Chinese dictator Hu Jintao, featured musical performances following dinner.
One of the musical performances was by the Chinese pianist Lang Lang.
Lang Lang played an anti-American propaganda melody from the Korean War.
The theme song to the movie Battle on Shanggaling Mountain.
Now, apparently the tune is universally known in China.
And there have been some people who have said that Lang Lang and perhaps others intended a political message.
Lang expressed this idea more frankly in a later blog post, writing, playing this song praising China to heads of state from around the world seems to tell them that our China is formidable, that our Chinese people are united.
I feel deeply honored and proud.
The New York Times has said one of the highlights of the state dinner was a performance by Lang Lang, a Chinese pianist, who has been a sensation in music circles.
Mr. Lang played a duet with the American jazz pianist Herbie Hancock, and then a haunting traditional Chinese metody called My Motherland.
In China, it turns out my motherland is better known as the theme from the film Battle of Shang and Lang Mountain, a 1956 Chinese classic about a Korean war battle in which a vastly outnumbered band of Chikom soldiers held off American and UN forces for 42 days.
The New York Times says, in retrospect, my motherland might seem to be a regrettable choice for a state dinner, but it was clearly unintentional.
Mr. Lang, an American-trained pianist who divides his time between the United States and China, is an artist who melds American and Chinese cultures.
Jane Ordlinger at National Review's Corner Blog wrote this.
Last week I had a note in this space about Lang Lang, who has become a kind of court pianist for Obama and the Chicom leadership.
The ChICOM dictatorship, to put it more bluntly.
Lang Lang played at the Beijing Olympics.
He played at Obama's Nobel ceremony.
He played at the White House event for Paul McCartney, the one at which McCartney made a ridiculous anti-bush crack, which caused Lang Lang and the Obama crowd to laugh like hyenas, and he played at Obama State dinner last week for Hu Xin Tao.
What did he play?
Most notably and significantly, he played a famous anti-American propaganda song.
Famous in China, that is.
Wei Jing-sing, great Chinese democracy leader, exiled in the U.S. since 1997, wrote a letter to Congress and Secretary of State Clinton.
He said, I listened to that music with a big shock.
Wei explained the song My Country or My Motherland comes from the best known communist propaganda movie about the Korean War, depicting the Chikom army's fight with the Americans.
The movie is called A Battle at Triangle Hill.
Wei said that the movie is as well known in China as Gone with the Wind is here.
The song refers to the Americans as wolves or jackals, and says that the Chinese will use weapons to deal with them.
Chinese exile Wei commented, is that not an insult to the United States to play such music at a state dinner hosted by the U.S. President?
No wonder it made Hu Xin Tao really happy.
Yeah, no wonder.
As the exiled Chinese, Mr. Wei pointed out, Hu Jintao is not ordinarily given to public emotion, but he emotionally embraced Lang Lang.
The Epic Times quotes a Chinese psychiatrist living in Philadelphia, Yang Jing Duan.
In the eyes of all Chinese, this will not be seen as anything other than a big insult to the U.S. It's like insulting you in your face and you don't know it.
It's humiliating.
In his letter, Wei said that so-called patriotic Chinese supporters of the Communist Party and the dictatorship were ecstatic over Lang Lang playing my motherland at the White House.
One such patriotic Chinese said the right place, the right time, the right song.
So a controversy has erupted.
Over the repertoire of the Chinese pianist Lang Lang.
That was a secret behind their back laugh insult to the United States.
In the home of the president, with the president and the first lady, yucking it up, smiling and applauding between bites of watercress vinaigrette.
Many people believe this.
Los Angeles Times has a story on this about Chinese pianist Lang Lang Pa.
Puzzled at his White House song about defeating the U.S. military jackals offends anybody.
The White House, for their part, said just because the lyrics call U.S. soldiers jackals doesn't mean it's an insult.
Chi those Lang Langs.
Well, these Americans are really touchy.
This is what the LA Times says.
Who would have thought that a Chikom pianist entertaining at the Obama White House State dinner last week to promote Chinese American friendship with Chinese President Hu Xin Tao?
That's not what was being promoted.
One thing we know is that Trump Trump is right.
The Chikoms are playing us like a stratavarius, laughing about it all the while.
And they know that they've got a pretender, you know, a little pretend dictator in the White House, one of their own.
Guy who looks up to them.
And so they're just bringing Lang Lang's become the court pianist for the regime.
The idea that uh any of this could possibly offend by tickling the old ivories with a favorite song about the Chinese people's liberation army enduring great hardships, but finally killing sufficient enemy troops to win a Korean war battle against American troops.
What's to be offended by such a musical choice unless perhaps you're not a Chinese Korean war vet?
Twenty-eight-year-old Chinese pianist Lang Lang says he wanted to bridge cultures using music.
He attempted to explain his musical choice by saying it's been a favorite of mine since I was a child.
I was selected for no other reason than for the beauty of its melody.
Music comes from the movie Battle on the Triangle Hill, blah blah blah.
The spokesman for the Obama White House says any suggestion that it's an insult.
This is a quote now.
Any suggestion that it's an insult to play a patriotic Chinese song that refers to American troops as jackals in the president's house is just flat wrong.
So song that calls U.S. troops jackals is played at a state dinner.
Everybody's laughing about it.
And the White House says that's that's not that's that's not that's not an insult.
That you're just flat wrong about so Lang Lang says he wants to build bridges.
Isn't that what the 9-11 mosque developer says, too?
That uh that he wants to build bridges.
From the ABC News website, Political Punch.
White House says Chinese folk song played during state dinner was not an insult.
Experts, however, are divided.
Chinese web users are uh acclaiming the pianist Lang Lang's choice of the tune uh as uh uh it's it's deeply meaningful to play this in the US, but I don't know if the Americans can understand this.
Ha ha.
Well, we we get it when it's explained to us.
But it's anyway, it is a um it's it's now bubbled up.
It's never missed.
This is uh, well, it may be one of the reasons Bush didn't give them a state dinner.
I think they're there it's it's stuff like this.
Uh but anyway, they got their state dinner, and they knew that that Lang Lang was the court pianist, if you will, for the regime.
We have a little bit of the tune here.
We actually have uh two minutes of it, and just so you'll know what this is all about.
It's the famous, it's famous in China, anti-American propaganda melody.
Some want to say it's it's it's actually uh song about fighting the United Nations.
But American troops are referred to as jackals.
And during his performance, this is a portion, this portion of what Lang Lang did.
*music*
I don't think anybody sings along here, so I just want to give a flavor for it.
I don't think anybody sings along here.
Oh, my God.
Remember, you remember when um Pope Benedicta, Pope Benedict, came to the White House, I think in the last year and a half of the Bush regime.
His birthday out there, they brought in the uh Army band, the Army Chorus, and sang the battle hymn of the Republic.
And that moved me.
That I played that version of the program for a couple days in a row.
But at the state dinner for Huijintao, we had this tune in which American soldiers are referred to as jackals.
There you have it.
That's enough.
Since there are no lyrics, really doesn't serve much purpose to play it uh any further, other than it is well played.
You have to say.
We'll take a brief time out and we'll come back.
We'll continue El Rushbaugh as time flies on the EIB network.
Imagine, imagine if Herbie Hancock had played um an anti-Chikom song at the state dinner.
Well, I don't even know of any anti-Chikom songs.
Do you know of any anti-Chikom songs?
I don't either, but I'm sure there are some out there.
You imagine if Herbie Hancock, if it had folks, You realize had I tried if I had tried to sing along in Chinese to Lang Lang's piano solo.
Do you realize the international incident that would occur?
Don't dare talk about Tiananmen Square.
You bring that up and the Chicoms are insulted.
You bring up the Falloon Gong, they are insulted.
You bring up the Dalai Lama, they say make him walk out the back door next to the trash.
You bring up their the 2010 Nobel Peace Prize winner that they are holding in jail.
And how about that?
The 2009 Nobel Prize winner hosts a dinner for the guy, keeping the 2010 Nobel Peace Prize winner in jail.
They show up and play an anti American tune by the pianist Lang Lang.
And if I had dared to sing along in Chinese for that, can you imagine the international incident?
Interpol would be at the front door already.
Or the Maybe we can see.
Hello, Dolly, as in D A L I. Hello, Dolly.
So nice.
Have you back where you belong in a trash truck driving up?
Here's uh who's next?
Liz in Camden, Tennessee.
It's great to have you with us, eh?
EIB network.
Hello.
Hello, Rush.
It's a delight and an honor to get to finally speak to you after all these years.
Thank you so much.
I've got a question.
What is I'm one of those uh what the Democrats think as dumb Americans.
Could you explain to me why the media and the Democratic Party are trashing the Republicans for all the cuts that are fixing to be made, but yet they have not one, not one.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
Idea or policy set up.
Because it's a great it's a great it's a great question, and it is just the Democrat Party playbook.
I don't know how old you are, and I'm not going to ask, but for as long as I've been alive, this has been I remember after Reagan's second term election, people like David Broder, the Washington Post said it's a triumph of greed and selfishness over common sense.
Uh it is you know Reagan was routinely accused of being responsible for AIDS.
Reagan was said to have uh been responsible for homelessness.
That in effect Reagan went outside and crossed the street to Lafayette Park and stole pork and beans from the homeless, went back to the White House kitchen, kitchen, and cooked them up and ate them and had a great time.
They it's just it's standard operating procedure.
This is it's it's the template.
Republicans hate people, kill people, particularly old people, and they're dredging it up here.
That's all they've got.
But Rosh, what I'm asking is, see, in order to have a debate or a discussion, you've got to have uh your own agenda, right?
No, you don't.
No, no, this that's my I know what you're asking me.
And the the Republicans ha have made clear what they want to cut.
I mean, they've some of the things.
They've I they've identified some of it, but even if they hadn't, all the Republicans have to do is start talking about reducing spending, and Democrats start having a cow and they bring up this parade of victims.
It's standard operating procedure.
Well, do the Democrats think we have a money tree in the backyard?
Yeah.
It's called printing press.
They do.
Well, when what's gonna happen when the printing press runs out of ink?
It won't.
Eventually it will.
No, it won't run out of ink and it won't run out of paper.
The paper will just become valueless.
That's what I'm saying.
It's not gonna it you know, it won't be worth the papers.
No.
Okay, so look at let me ask you a very salient question.
Yes, sir.
It's obvious that you know all this.
It's obvious you know the drawbacks of excessive uh senseless spending.
It's obvious that you and a lot of people understand this is unsustainable.
So the question for you is you're asking why are why why are the Democrats doing it?
Yes.
No, do you have an answer?
Why are they doing it?
Why are they doing it?
They know just as well as you do how it's unsustainable, how it's it's unsupportable, it can't work.
Why are they doing it?
Uh I to be honest with you, they're cutting off their nose to spite their face.
Um.
They're doing it on purpose.
But aren't they going to be in the in the uh in the barrel with everybody else?
Yeah, but they don't know that, and they don't realize that, and they're not they don't no, actually they don't think they're gonna be in the barrel with everybody else.
When is reality gonna hit it?
How long is it gonna take?
I don't know what I mean.
We're there now.
I don't know what you mean by reality.
They don't live in a real world.
If they if they think that they can keep spending like this and keep on spending, and uh you can't even do that in your own private life.
I mean, how do these people balance their checkbook at home?
They look, I'm running out of time here, and I I'm trying to figure out where you're coming from on this, because you sound like you're just discovering what they're doing.
You've you you've been paying attention a lot longer than just recently, right?
Yes.
Okay.
I'm 63 years old, and I'm I'm watching our country go in the toilet.
Right.
