We shut down the StratForce site with that chart of European energy installations in Libya.
By the way, Coco, put that on our Facebook page as well, will you?
We just put it at Rushlinbaugh.com.
If you go to Rush Lindbaugh.com, in the orange banner at the top of the homepage.
It says StratFord chart.
Click on that, you'll see it.
It is from Strat4.com.
We're going to put it on our Facebook page as well.
Look at I got so many people telling me, of course I can deliver pizza.
They're inviting me to come by their house, uh, deliver pizza and have dinner with them.
Look at folks, Operation Chaos delivered, what was it, Indiana and Texas for Mrs. Clinton.
These guys all know.
Folks, you gotta just I don't take this stuff personally.
I really they they gotta put this.
I don't give people the power to hurt my feelings anymore.
I I don't give people the power to offend me.
I really, for the longest time, I have I've been impatient with people who are offended about stuff.
I especially in our politics.
Do you realize how much loss of freedom there is in because somebody's been offended?
I've got to give you an example.
This is not really offended, but you could have one child in a class of 50 students with a peanut allergy, and 49 students don't get to have peanut butter.
No, you do.
I'm gonna get in trouble here.
I'm sure I'm gonna get in trouble.
Well, it is life-threatening for the one, so 49 students don't get it.
Yeah, they can have it at home.
Right.
See, see how easily you go along with this.
You see how easily you go along with this.
That's how easy it is to lose free.
We've got people who are offended at secondhand smoke, who live hundreds of miles away from it.
Can't smoke.
I uh it's we all have our pet peeves.
People who are offended.
I mean, there's a professional class of people.
They're leftists who are offended.
And they affect freedom.
They have a tremendous impact on liberty.
So Brooks can sit out there with all of his yuck-yuck Republican buddies and say that you know I can't deliver pizza.
In their dreams.
In their dreams, I can't deliver pizza.
I delivered Texas, I delivered Indiana for Mrs. Clinton during Operation Chaos.
And they all know it.
I know who's jealous out there for, but the bottom line is it doesn't hurt my feelings.
I appreciate you all getting offended for me, but you don't have to.
We really don't.
Um have to do what.
I have to make a pick on the Republic.
Oh, you're gonna don't don't get started now.
We got plenty of time for that, Snurley.
I I don't I don't want to get back into this.
I have to pick somebody on the Republican side early.
I understand this.
Understand there's gonna be a fact, there already is a movement out there to make sure that happens.
There is.
I'm and I am the target of this movement.
I, L. Rushbow, you wouldn't believe the pressure I'm under already.
Yeah, I know.
I'm a target when I um when I don't do anything.
Tell the Republican Congress in 1994 I don't deliver pizza.
Anyway, we're glad to have you back, folks.
800 282-2882 is the phone number if you want to be on the program email address lrushbaugh at eibnet.com.
I want to play you a soundbite.
It's of uh what did I do with it?
Bill Ayers.
It's from last Thursday, Bill Ayers, Obama's terrorist buddy.
He was in Montclair, New Jersey at Montclair State University at a students for a democratic society event.
Bill Ayers, the former weather underground leader.
And I'm gonna play this without comment.
We'll throw this in the mix with Reverend Wright and Calypso Lewis, and you can just have whatever fun with it you want.
An unidentified student at Mr. Eyre's appearance.
What is your opinion of Barack Obama's style as a writer?
First book is very good.
The second book's more political hack book.
First books quite good.
Right.
Also, just you mentioned about the Pentagon and I wrote it.
What's that?
I wrote it in the book.
You wrote that?
If you could help me prove it, I'll split the room.
So there's Ayers.
Now, this is the second time that Ayers has said that he wrote um Dreams of My Father.
That's Obama's first book.
Yeah, the first book's quite good.
I wrote it.
The second book is a hack book.
A political hack book.
If you can help me prove it, uh, I'll split the royalties with you.
Class laughs.
Some people believe it.
Some people believe I tell you why they believe it, because Ayers is part of the group that's very unhappy that Obama is waging war in Libya, that we're not out of Guantanamo Bay, that we're not out of Iraq, and that we added to Afghanistan.
So I just I play this for you so that you can you can be your own judge.
But I think I think uh Ayers happens to be tweaking everybody with this because the accusations out there.
Uh well, there's no question air's a better writer than Obama is.
But the allegations have been out there that Ayers wrote the first book, or maybe even both of them.
So anytime he mentions it now, uh it's it's almost like a joke.
Here's President Obama.
This is Saturday, White House YouTube channel.
When someone like Gaddafi threatens a bloodbath that could destabilize an entire region.
And when the international community is prepared to come together to save many thousands of lives, then it's in our national interest to act.
And it's our responsibility.
This is one of those times.
Well, you just heard it, President Obama on Saturday, the White House YouTube channel claiming that Libya is a vital U.S. national interest.
Mmm, not so fast.
Sunday morning on Meet the Press, the guests, Secretary of State Clinton, Secretary of Defense Robert Gates.
David Gregory said, Secretary Gates is Libya in our vital interest as a country.
No, I don't think it's uh vital interest for the United States, but we clearly have interests there, and it's a part of the region, which is a vital interest for the United States.
No, I don't think it's a vital interest for the U.S. We have interests there.
I just showed you what the interest is, folks.
The interest is European energy.
That's why we're there.
And by the way, don't anybody misunderstand.
I'm all for that.
I'm of the camp that believes oil.
The free flow of oil, the free flow of energy at market prices is the fuel of freedom.
I you you I'm not going to find any quarrel from me going anywhere to maintain the free flow of oil at market prices.
The left will, but I don't.
If it could be firmly established that we are there because the Europeans are there for protection of their energy installations, and there's a lot of them.
I've shown you the chart.
You can see the chart at rushlimbod.com, Stratford.com.
You can see it on my Facebook page.
You can see how heavily invested in Libyan energy the Europeans are.
And you can see which companies and countries there are there.
There's no question.
There can't.
You you you um will have no doubt once you look at the chart.
I think it's entirely understandable the Europeans are there.
They didn't waste time, folks.
You'll note they did not waste time getting in there.
They waited for us to dither, but they didn't wait for us to dither.
We are the last in.
People have watched what people like Hugo Chavez have done.
Nationalizing oil and energy institutions, installations, companies in Venezuela.
They don't want that in Libya.
They don't want that in the Middle East.
Makes perfect sense.
You've got instability in this country, Qaddafi murdering, and who knows what could end up running this country.
I guarantee you, they don't want the Muslim Brotherhood running this country.
They do not want a caliphate here.
They do not want this.
People interested in the flea f free flow of oil at market prices do not want the Muslim Brotherhood running this show here.
It would make perfect sense to me to go in here to protect their interests.
That they would persuade us to go eventually.
Tough you it seems to me that Obama is more Than willing to help everybody else in this world maintain their own flow of oil at market prices.
Brazil will give them two billion dollars or loan them two billion dollars to grow their own oil industry.
We'll put drilling moratoriums on ourselves.
We will hamper the free flow of oil at market prices in our country.
But around the world, if anybody's oil interests are upset, we're right there to help them out eventually.
But stop and think of this.
Here you have Gates.
No, we don't have a vital interest there.
There's not a vital interest for the United States.
I think Gates knows what he's talking about.
Obviously he does.
He knows what's going on there.
Means there's no vital U.S. oil there.
But what are we doing?
Here we have our own Secretary of Defense saying there's no vital U.S. interests that we are putting members of our military at risk.
We are spending a billion taxpayer dollars.
What is it, a day?
On something that's not in the vital interests of the United States.
In fact, it sounds like the U.S. went into kinetic military action to protect the Tunisian and Egyptian revolutions to protect the Muslim Brotherhood.
Notice that Mrs. Clinton's claim may not may not be true.
Let's move on to Mrs. Clinton here, because Gregory, after Gates said, no, there's no vital U.S. interest there.
David Gregory said, well, I think a lot of people would hear that and say, well, that's quite striking.
Not in our vital interest, and yet we're committing resources there.
But then it wouldn't be fair as to what Bob just said.
I mean, did Libya attack us?
No, they did not attack us.
Do they have a very critical role in this region?
And do they neighbor two countries?
You just mentioned one, Egypt, the other, Tunisia, that are going through these extraordinary transformations and cannot afford to be destabilized by conflict on their borders.
Yes.
Do they have a major influence on what goes on in Europe because of everything from oil to immigration?
And you know, David, that raises a very important point.
Because you showed on the map just a minute ago, Afghanistan.
You know, we asked our allies, our NATO allies, to go into Afghanistan with us ten years ago.
They have been there, and a lot of them have been there despite the fact they were not attacked.
The attack came on us, as we all tragically remember.
They stuck with us.
When it comes to Libya, we started hearing from the UK, France, Italy, other of our NATO allies.
This was in their vital national interest.
The UK and France were the ones who went to the Security Council and said, we have to act because otherwise we're seeing a really violent upheaval with a man who has a history of unpredictable violent acts right on our doorstep.
That's the way that's.
You know, let's let's be fair here.
They didn't attack us, but what they were doing and Qaddafi's history and the potential for the disruption and instability was very much in our interest, as Bob said, and seen by our European friends and our Arab partners as very vital to their interests.
Read oil.
All of that adds up to oil, folks.
I hate to tell you if you don't want to hear it, but it adds up to oil.
Libya did not attack Europe, Mrs. Clinton.
Sure, they didn't attack us, they did not attack Europe.
Qaddafi did attack anybody.
What was going on?
Nothing was going on except Kadaki was Qaddafi was attacking his own people.
That was leading to instability.
You had Tunisia, you had Egypt, you had Europe saying, Oh my God, we got that much energy dependence in that country, and all hell's breaking loose.
We've got stabilize.
Not for humanitarian purposes.
That's what the left says.
The left, Mrs. Clinton, by the way, that that question, that minute and 36 answer you just got, the question was intended for Gates.
She took it.
She just, she didn't let Gates answer the follow-up.
She took it.
Because the minute Gates said, no, we don't have any vital U.S. interest there.
I mean, that was red flag panic city.
So lead Hawk hen number one, Mrs. Clinton moves in there, co-opts the question, Gives the answer.
They stuck with us.
UK, France, Italy, other you take a look.
UK, France, Italy.
You take a look at the color code on the chart as to what nation owns what companies that own what installations in Libya.
It's all perfectly clear what's happening.
And again, don't misunderstand.
I got no problem with it.
It was Ed Markey, Democrat Massachusetts.
Libya's about oil.
It's all about oil.
He's probably right.
He doesn't like it.
Humanitarian, that's just what the left says.
So we have joined a war for Europe's oil.
And isn't that better than going to war for oil for ourselves?
Blood for oil.
American blood for European oil.
From 15,000 feet.
No fly zone.
As I say, we'll come to the aid, apparently, of anybody in the world who wants to protect or find more of their oil.
It's just when our oil is on the table, this regime says it's going to stay on the table, or it's going to stay in the ocean, or it's going to stay underground.
And we'll be right back.
Grab more of your phone calls right after this.
As usual, my friends, half my brain tied behind my back just to make it fair.
Something we've done from the outset of this program.
Here's Eric in Wilmington, Delaware, as we uh return to the phones.
Great to have you on the program, sir.
Hi.
Hi, Rush.
How are you doing?
Very well, thank you.
Um I have a question, or two really.
Um first question is if it's illegal for Americans to aid and abet Al Qaeda and they prosecute you, why is it not illegal for the executive branch to supply and aid and abet the um a cadet and jihadists in Libya against uh or just the supply and help them out.
Well, it's an interesting, uh interesting question.
Uh the answer that I would come up with is uh that the regime is above the law.
Uh the regime's own health care bill is said to be unconstitutional.
Regime doesn't care.
Yeah, but we uh but um Rush, one thing.
Um I mean we had uh in 1980s when Iran Contra went on, they had the Bowen amendment.
Right.
And they went after the Reagan administration uh unrelentlessly to um to try to impeach Reagan.
I mean, I don't hear peep.
Everybody is on the everybody is agreeing that we should be there.
And I once remembered Patton saying if everybody is thinking the same thing, somebody's not thinking.
So I was just wondering why no one is even bringing it up that it's illegal to supply Al Qaeda and jihadists that have killed our soldiers in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Uh don't know.
Uh I'm I uh as I said, I'm not sure that it's been established to the legal extent that we are openly willingly supplying Al-Qaeda.
Uh in uh in in Libya.
Uh in ousting Qaddafi, uh, we we might be uh assisting Al Qaeda in their quest, but actually giving them uh military so far.
I don't know.
Um I said that the the regime is above the law in their own minds.
They've got a the health care bill is unconstitutional, so what?
We're gonna keep implementing it.
It's clear that um in in many cases the law does not apply to uh to to them.
Bob in Franklin, Tennessee.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Hello.
Hello, Rush, an honor to speak to you, sir.
Thank you, sir.
Yeah, I uh noticed yesterday Gates uh Secretary Gates said that he had reports of Qaddafi planting dead bodies near our tomahawk missile strikes.
And uh, you know, if that would have been Bush in uh Iraq, uh if that would have been reported, it would have been uh I'm sure very much discredited in the fact that we were doing so much collateral damage.
Um, but you understand why.
Oh, absolutely.
Absolutely, I understand why.
If if um if if, for example, uh the defense secretary and the Bush administration had claimed that Saddam and others was uh moving already dead bodies To make it look like collateral damage, why there would have been no end of the assaults on the Bush administration.
How dare you make these outrageous claims?
Gates claims it about Obama or claims it about Qaddafi, and of course Qaddafi's the enemy.
I mean, clearly uh the media, the left loves Obama.
He can do no wrong.
The only way he can disappoint them is not meeting up to their expectations, but they keep holding out hope.
Um let's see.
Michael in St. Louis.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Hello, sir.
Rush, it is truly an honor to you.
Thank you very much, sir.
Russia, I won't talk to you about something completely different than what you've been talking about today, but it's still along the same lines.
I mean, I constantly see how what I feel like this administration is is doing to tear this country apart.
And uh, you know, you talked last week, you didn't know whether to call President Obama President Obama President Ob Obama.
I'd call it the Socialist Republic of Obama.
Because I work in an industry, the only industry that I know of, the mortgage industry, where we are now being told by the federal government how much we can be paid, when and how we can and cannot be paid.
And it's all being handed down through the Obama administration through the Federal Reserve Board.
We had a conference call about two weeks ago from the Federal Reserve Board where not one single member of the Federal Reserve Board was on the call.
Instead, they hired two lawyers to kind of read the talking points and tell us, well, here's what you can do, but you can do this, but it may or may not be legal, and it's up to you to decide and and I gotta hold it.
You gotta hold another break, because on uh when you talk about being paid, are you talking about your salary or the loan circumstances that you can engage in?
Back in just a second.
On this civilian casualty thing in Libya, it's important to remember it is Gates who's claiming this.
It is the regime, our defense secretary, Robert Gates is claiming that there aren't any real civilian casualties.
What's happening is that uh uh Libyan government is moving the bodies into position to make it look like civilian casualties.
And of course, the point is imagine if anybody during Iraq in the Bush administration had made such a claim.
The left wouldn't put up with it.
They wouldn't tolerate it.
Uh CNN ran a crawl, I think, for several hours over the week and said Libyan government can't back up claims of collateral damage.
Um so, you know, Obama has his uh defense secretary claim it, uh the Libyans claim it, and the uh and the media says, well, like it's Gaddafi's lying.
Would we have ever gotten a story from CNN Saddam or others in Iraq are lying?
No, it'd be the Bush regime.
The Bush administration which was lying.
This was the fundamental point of a uh uh caller previous but where has there ever been a war without collateral damage?
This is the point.
When has there ever been a war where there was not citizen damage?
In fact, that's used to be how you won wars, folks.
I hate to tell you, is by killing innocent civilians.
So who do we think we're targeted Nagasaki and Hiroshima?
And all the bombings of Germany in World War II.
That's how you used to define victory.
Uh now it's called collateral damage, and the idea that we can conduct war without any is uh is absurd.
Now back to Michael in St. Louis.
See, your your point is that um uh you're in the mortgage business and they're telling you what you can make.
What what do you mean by what you can make?
Well, what they're doing is they have passed uh or they're trying to pass a law that is going to tell the mortgage business how they can pay the loan officers, the mortgage brokers, mortgage bankers, it doesn't matter.
They're telling the You're talking about salary.
Right.
Salaries and commissions.
Yeah, okay.
And basically he's trying to do the mortgage industry what he is in the process of doing to the to the health care industry, to the insurance industry.
And what he's doing is he's gonna he's making it t the government is making it harder for the mortgage industry to service the consumer.
And this all was created in in the under the guise of we're gonna protect the consumer, but the real truth is it's gonna hurt the consumer because it's gonna make it harder for first time home buyers uh and low and moderate income people to get a mortgage to refinance a mortgage or to buy a home.
Why?
What does it matter just as a as a you know simple what does it matter how much money you make a year as to whether or not somebody gets a mortgage?
Well, it's based on the loan amount.
It's based on the loan.
They're saying that we cannot be paid based on the terms of the loan, but that's how the mortgage industry has been since its inception.
So now we're saying, okay, tell us how we can pay ourselves.
For instance, the mortgage broker can't sell his business because you sell a business based on its profitability.
Right.
But under this law, if you sell your business based on profitability, you're in violation and you go to jail.
If you sell the business on val on the basis of profitability, you go to jail?
Yep.
Well, you know, this is you cannot be paid based on the revenue generated by a loan.
Well, what you on what are you to be paid then?
Well, that is a good question, Rush.
We uh you know, like I'm not sure.
I mean, where is the income generated if it's not from the loan being paid back?
Well, it is generated by the loan, but now the companies they're being told you cannot pay the loan officers based on the revenue brought in.
So you can set them up on a salary, yeah, or you can set them up on uh a percentage of the loan amount, but not a percentage of the revenue.
Well, tell me this.
Back in the days of the subprime, Michael, how was anybody making any money when you guys were ordered to loan money to people who could never pay it back?
Well, back then, I mean it was a lot easier.
Now, you know, there was there was a I'll be the first to admit that there were a lot of unscrupulous people in the mortgage industry.
And I've always said crooks are like cockroaches.
You turn on the lights and they scatter.
No, no, that's not I'm no no no no.
I'm I'm not going there.
I'm I'm simply saying you're you're saying that you make money as a percentage of uh the profitability of your loan that you make.
Okay, well how in the world did anybody make any money?
I'm talking about you guys, a loan officer, not the not management.
How did any of you guys make any money when you're loaning money to people that never had to pay it back and never could pay it back?
The the subprimes.
Not sure if I understand your question completely, Rush.
Okay, you're gonna make a loan to me.
I'm never gonna pay it back.
The government's telling you you gotta loan it to me because I'm poor.
You gotta give me the money to buy a house, but I'm never gonna pay it back because I can't.
I don't have any income.
But the government's making you give me the money anyway, a subprime mortgage.
Okay, so there's a loan, then there's no money coming in to pay.
How do you make a salary on it?
How do you how do you make a living on it?
Well well, the the money is gener the loan is sold to the investor, whether it's in investors, which are let's see, it was still worthless paper.
This this is this was the problem with it from day one.
You think that the feds are getting involved in your mortgage business, they've been involved in it for for 20 years, probably longer than that, but at least in a direct way that impacts you.
Community redevelopment act required that loans be made to low income and no income people.
You were forced, you don't sound old enough.
Maybe you haven't you maybe you weren't making mortgages, uh mortgage loans back then.
I'm talking about going back to the mid to late nineties.
How long have you been in the mortgage industry?
I've been in business for a long time, and I was in the business back when they were doing subprimes, and I didn't really get involved in those loans as much because I mainly dealt with people who had good credit, good income, and you know, we dealt with you know uh self-employed borrowers who uh needed a stated income loan because that was why the stated income loans were created, was because when you underwrite a loan and you're you're looking at income, somebody who's a W-two employee, you go off their gross income.
But as a self-employed borrower, you go off the net income, and you know, a business owner has a good CPA.
Obviously, he tries to show uh little to no as little profit as possible to pay the minimum amount of taxes.
Well, exactly.
But we're the the So you didn't have to get involved in the subprime business.
But I'm just based on what you've said, I'm I'm just now with a naturally passionately curious uh mind.
Well, how did anybody make any money loaning money?
I know Fanny and Freddie bought it, but there was still nobody paying it.
Nobody was paying it alone.
The financial industry had to come up with all of these derivatives and the uh collateralized debt obligations to make the paper worth something.
You can't give somebody 150,000.
This is what they were doing.
A subprime mortgage was giving the money away.
Nobody ever had to make a payment.
So there's no money coming in.
So the lending institution is out 150 grand.
So I'm saying the loan officer in charge of that, if what we're hearing, how do you make a dime?
You can sell the mortgage, but still nobody is paying any money on the mortgage.
And Fanny and Freddie are how much uh in debt.
Uh I mean, which the whole thing was a mess.
My Mike, my point to you, Michael, is this just the latest, the federal government intruding in the mortgage industry, now determining how it is that you can make money.
But I'll tell you, it's my Michael, it's not.
Let me talk about radio.
Let me talk about radio sales.
It's really no different.
I could I could get an endless parade of advertising executives from radio stations to come in here and tell you horror story after horror story.
They are given each each ad executive station gets a list of clients, and obviously some lists are better than others.
Some people have lists of people that don't advertise.
Some advertisers are on the list.
I've heard horror stories.
Uh, ad exec has had his commission dropped, his list changed if he starts making too much money.
And that's not because the federal government's involved, it's it's just the way the business ran.
Uh and in some places it didn't happen.
It depend on who the manager was, it depended on what the philosophy was, depended on whether they were creeps, uh whether they were decent motivators or not.
Now, in your case, you got the federal government moving in, that's pretty oppressive.
But the federal government's been involved in the loan business, the savings and loan business, the mortgage business for I don't know how long.
Now determining how much money you can or can't not make from it, yeah, that is and that's a red flag to everybody.
Well, a housing market, how how's the housing market going to recover with all this stuff going on?
What uh uh okay, how is the housing market going to recover?
Well, it will.
The housing market's gonna be driven by purchases.
And that's gonna happen when people have the ability.
Whenever that happens, people have the ability to buy a house, they will.
That's gonna this there are a lot of factors uh involved there.
But that doesn't, you know, nor normal cycles will continue to take place, economic cycles, but it still doesn't disguise the fact that this administration is putting itself, is inserting itself in the mechanism by which people acquire wealth.
Either the tax code that is a penalty, and believe me, the income tax, folks, is designed to prevent the acquisition of wealth.
Pure and simple.
That's what it is.
In addition, all this gobbledygook about funding government services and blah, blah, blah, blah, it's designed to prevent the acquisition of wealth.
And it's uh, and it it it does, uh in in all too many cases.
So I'm, you know, not surprised that uh they're getting involved in this way.
I'll tell you that the excuse for it probably is that by limiting how much Michael you and people like you can make, the loan will be cheaper.
For the disadvantaged American who is already the victim of capitalism and greedy people like you.
So if the government moves in and dictates how much you cannot make on a loan that is a smaller monthly cost to the consumer, i.e.
more affordable.
Therefore, you take it on the chin.
Welcome to the Democrat Party running the country.
Pure and simple.
That's all you need To know about it.
Folks, what this mortgage banker, the mortgage broker from St. Louis, was describing is a command economy.
And it's what Obama wants for everybody and everything.
It's a, it's a, it's, it's one of the uh we've talked about it in different terminology here, but the the idea that we're gonna spread misery, we're gonna spread equality, we're gonna redistribute wealth, we're gonna make sure the rich uh are taking down a number of the social justice.
In this case, the way it's justified is that why should somebody get rich off of the pain somebody has to go through repaying a mortgage?
Why should somebody get rich doing that?
So it's, you know, this is this is just under the nose of the tent that is the command economy that Obama wants for everybody.
It's you know, it's it's like every other command economy, though.
Some people are going to get more social justice than others.
Some people are gonna be preferred.
Whoever Obama and his minions think are the most disadvantaged or the most uh taken advantage of, or what have you, and I guarantee you, if you have any position, if your job is in any way considered management or executive, you are going to pay for it.
And then if if if in your position in management or as an executive, you are taking advantage, as the mortgage industry clearly does, just by definition, according to Obama.
Obama looks at why should somebody make money off of a loan?
I guarantee you he looks at it that way.
Why should somebody make any money off a loan?
You've got a house, why shouldn't someone why should somebody go broke having a house?
And why should the person who makes the loan get rich?
I guarantee you, this is how he looks at it.
Social justice.
That is how Sharia law sees it.
Damn right it is, snurts exactly how Sharia law sees it.
Interest is sinful.
Interest, financial interest, making money off of money is sinful.
Andy McCarthy, my old buddy, says, if you want to know how Libya is gonna end up, learn Sharia law.
Sharia law will tell us where Libya is headed.
Sharia law will tell us where Egypt is headed.
Sharia law will tell us where all of the Middle East is headed.
Just takes the courage to believe it.
Okay, time for the immediate tweak of the day.
Nation building.
That was bad enough, folks.
