Time Text
Still lots to do here.
The fastest three hours in media, Rush Limbaugh saying more in five minutes than most people say in their entire careers.
Great to have you here.
As we have more fun, any human being should be allowed to have really do here.
I mean, I'm doing what I was born to do.
That means that I am blessed.
Hey, really.
I wish everybody could find what it is they were meant to do to be doing it.
It's just it's uh it's a blessing, it really is.
Sixty-one percent of American adults, including some who describe themselves as pro-choice, told Gallup in a survey conducted May 5 through 8 that abortion should be illegal in all or most circumstances.
61%.
The Gallup survey was published yesterday.
It asked 1,018 American adults whether they considered themselves pro-choice or pro-life.
It also asked, do you think abortions should be legal under any circumstances, legal only under certain circumstances, or illegal in all circumstances?
61% say all or most abortions should be illegal.
Gallup.
Sixty one percent.
Now, what's your first reaction, Snerdly?
What is your first reaction when you hear this?
I'll tell you what mine is when I hear yours.
What do you mean?
We've always been.
The dirty little secret is that abortion's always been a 50-50 issue.
It's never been an issue where the pro-lifers are 20 or 30%.
But the real if you want to take a political point to this.
All these people on the Republican side so scared to death about the social issues.
Shut the heck up.
And understand what a winner you have on the cultural side of conservatism.
That's the political take from this.
You want to what's happening?
I'll tell you what's happening.
As our culture deteriorates all around us, people see it.
Virtually everywhere you look.
As jobs decrease, people look around.
This is not the way it's supposed to be.
This is not the America people know.
This is not the way things get done.
Things that are happening is just not the way stimulus bills and all this kind of stuff.
And there is I think a subconscious subliminal attachment to things that are real.
And you can't get more real than life.
You just can't.
I think it also represents a uh a bit of say a chink in the armor of the pop culture crowd.
As uh as well.
Sixty one percent.
It's no longer an issue for the rhinos to be afraid of.
It's no longer an issue for these uh so-called moderate Republicans to think that is killing their electoral chances.
It's just the opposite.
Supreme Court, this is this is unbelievable.
This uh this next story, Supreme Court ordered California yesterday to release could be as many as forty-six thousand prisoners to relieve overcrowding, saying that needless suffering and death had resulted from putting too many inmates into facilities that cannot hold them in decent conditions.
Of course, releasing tens of thousands of hardened criminals into the population will not result in less needless suffering and death.
It's going to increase needless suffering and death outside the prison walls.
Because they've got strict gun control laws in California.
And of course the law abiding will not have guns.
These jerks getting out of jail, it's the first thing they're gonna go do is get gun.
They'll have no problem.
And you know what?
Ex-felons can vote in California as long as they're not currently incarcerated.
Of course, that's just a coincidence here.
Five to four vote, United States Supreme Court, Anton Scalia called the ruling staggering and absurd.
He left out dangerous.
He said the high court had repeatedly overruled the Ninth Circus for ordering the release of individual prisoners.
Now he said the majority were ordering the release, the release of 46,000 happy-go-lucky felons.
He added, terrible things are sure to happen as a consequence of this outrageous order.
Justice Clarence Thomas agreed with him.
California's going to become a prison yard.
I mean, outside the walls of the 46,000, because overcrowding has caused suffering and death.
Needless.
Suffering and death.
To the audio sound bites.
It was just yesterday on this program.
And behind this, the golden EIB microphone that I ilrushbo.
You engineers, you hate it when they do that.
It just destroys the VU meters.
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I I told you with with uh Mitch Daniels saying no mas, no mas.
I said the powerful forces of the moderates and the rhinos in the Republican Party would immediately begin their effort to push John Huntsman to the top tier of Republican presidential nominees, John Huntsman Jr., former ambassador to the ChICOMs for Obama.
Moderate Republican had lunch with George H. W. Bush and Barbara Bush.
Can they monk port yesterday?
Got to find somebody in there that can be a moderate that the Republican establishment can own and control.
You're going to hear in Huntsman very soon here.
Well, it didn't take long.
Last night on Charlie Rose on PBS, Time Magazine's senior political analyst Mark Halprin, and Bloomberg News Washington executive editor Al Hunt were talking about the Republican presidential race.
Charlie Rose said, who could beat the president if they get the nomination?
Who is the most likely Republican to be able to run the toughest race?
Here's Mark Halpern.
I think Huntsman, based on what I saw this weekend and based on his record, I think has the potential to be the one who the White House would be and should be the most worried about, the potential to be that.
You share that?
I do.
I do think he would probably be the toughest general election candidate.
And I think the White House thinks that.
So Mark Halpern, liberal journalist, Al Hunt, liberal journalist, oh yeah, Huntsman.
See, folks, in one day, out of nowhere, Huntsman, that's what the White House is afraid of.
Now, Sunday, the White House scared to death of Mitch Daniels.
Last week the White House scared to death of Mitch Daniels.
Mitch Daniels was gonna that's who they didn't want to face.
That's what they told us.
In one day, it's now Huntsman.
Both Halprin and Hunt are convinced the White House already quaking in their boots.
So much Obama might return from Europe early.
Well, no, they didn't say that, but I mean.
Hey, could we send some of these California prisoners to Club Gitmo?
We're not shutting that place down.
Alcatraz.
Nah, Alcatraz, it's uh it's a nostalgic thing.
It's not a facility suitable.
Uh it's too big of a you know, a tourist destination anyway.
So here are the the the pimp stream media already putting all their money on huntsman.
I mean, yeah, pimp stream media, that's a new pimp stream media.
I mean, do I know these people?
I mean, I know these people like every square inch of my glorious naked buddy.
in 24 hours they bear me out.
Romney is the guy to catch right now, because of money.
Romney, name recognition, polling data.
But the pimp stream, and I mean that they want somebody.
You you don't mean to tell that that that that Halprin and Hunt.
They don't really want somebody in there that can challenge Obama.
Halpern and Hunt are both gonna vote for Obama.
They don't want somebody that's gonna make Obama look bad.
They don't want somebody in there that's gonna really challenge him.
Al Hunt was asked by Charlie Rose.
Now, look, tell me the significance of Mitch Daniels deciding not to run, and then tell me why.
I'm a big Mitch Daniels fan.
I think Mitch Daniels would have been a good president.
I don't think he would have been as formidable a candidate as some people who wanted him to run thought he would be.
I always found it difficult to see how Mitch could have gotten the nomination.
Okay, so now Al Hunt is free to say what he always thought.
Mitch Daniels would have been a fine president for him, and Al Hunt's a liberal, but he never would have won.
He wouldn't have got the nomination.
Free to say that now.
See how this works.
Yeah, Herman Kane.
Herman Kane was on uh Fox News Sunday.
He did not know what right of return meant.
Chris Wallace asked him his thoughts on the right of return.
He had no idea what it was.
Fox News Sunday.
Here is how it went.
The right of return, the right of return.
The Palestinian right of return.
That's something that should be negotiated.
That's something that should be negotiated.
But do you think the Palestinian refugees, the people who were kicked out of the land in 1948, should be able or should have any right to return to Israeli land?
Yes, but not under Palestinian conditions.
Yes.
They should have a right to come back if that is a decision that Israel wants to make.
I'm back to it's up to Israel to determine the things that they will accept.
No, he didn't, he didn't know.
Last night on Hannity, Herman Cain, former CEO Godfather's Pizza.
They played this clip back for him.
Hannity played the clip for him and then said a lot of people think you didn't understand the right of return, is what Herman Cain said.
They are exactly right.
Chris caught me off guard.
I didn't understand the right of return.
I now know what that is.
The thing that you're going to learn about Herman Cain, if he doesn't know something, he's not going to try and fake it or give an answer that he doesn't know what he's talking about.
Now here's the thing about that right of return that I have learned since Sunday.
It wasn't that they were kicked out of Israel by the Jews.
No.
Their Arab leaders asked them to leave because they thought they were going to annihilate what was left, and then they could go back.
So yes, I still stick by my answer.
It is the responsibility and the decision to be made by Israel.
So he's relying on his instincts here.
Got the answer half right, but he didn't know what he was being asked, what he was being asked.
Last night he admitted it.
As uh as his uh recovery.
Well, no, what else could he do?
Certainly, I mean, you can't.
He had no choice but to say he didn't know what it was.
And that's good.
Uh what do you mean we've seen what politicians will do recently?
Who are you talking about?
Oh, uh, well, it's you're just talking about Newt.
Well, okay, here's but but we'll stick to Herman.
I got the Newt somebody's coming up here, but but but I think it's a credit to Herman Cain.
I did not know what it was.
Now, if Herman had listened to this program all this week, he would know.
That was his mistake.
Because we explained it on this program numerous times.
As we have over the course of the 22 plus years behind the golden EIB microphone.
Now, Newt on CNBC Squawk Box today, Joe Kernan interviewed, uh interviewed Newt.
This is vintage newt.
This is the old new.
This is the newt that everybody wishes were still around all the time.
This is the newt that everybody asks, what happened?
Where did he go?
First question from Kernan.
I look through what you want to do for business.
It's a wish list for free market economics.
Can you tell, can you just tell us some of the main keys here?
Look, I'm taking directly from the Reagan playbook, and I'd like to point out to everybody that North Dakota has three percent unemployment and has had seven straight tax cuts in state government.
Texas in the two of the last four years created more jobs than the other 49 states combined.
So there are some lessons here.
The lessons are taxes, deregulation, and American energy policy, and being in favor of people who are entrepreneurs who run small businesses who go to work and create jobs.
Newt continued with this.
No tax increase in 2013, freeze the current tax rate.
It is wrong to raise taxes in a recession.
Go to zero capital gains.
If we abolish the capital gains tax, the volume of money that will flow into the United States will be enormous.
We'll create new companies, create new factories, create new jobs.
And finally, he wrapped it up thus.
Go to the Irish tax rate for corporations of 12.5%.
At the 35% tax level, General Electric has 375 tax lawyers.
For all practical purposes, they pay zero.
They'll actually pay more corporate tax at 12.5% and will have less distortion in their decision making by tax avoidance schemes.
Finally, abolish the death tax permanently.
These kind of steps would move us towards very dramatic job growth, which is the best way to move towards a balanced budget by getting people off of unemployment, off of Medicaid, off of food stamps, get them back into earning a living and paying taxes.
There you have it.
Vintage Reaganism in the era of Reagan being over.
Vintage Reaganism from Newt Gingrich.
This is the newt that everybody remembers.
They wonder where it went, but it's back.
See, it's there.
It's there.
Sometimes the desire just to get too cute by half.
But the uh instincts are there.
Folks, every time that I flip the switch here on the golden EIB market, and I do, by the way.
You know, in some places the unions don't allow talent to uh touch the broadcast equipment.
But I have control over the switch here.
You know, Snerdley is a member of the screeners union, the United Screeners of America, Mo Thacker is the union thug that we've had a deal with for twenty well, all of it, twenty-two years.
In fact, one of the first people I met moving to New York, starting this program, you figure the union guy shows up first, Mo Thacker, uh, to read me the uh the Riot Act, rules and regulations about proper treatment of screeners, how many hours they won't work, what kind of calls they won't take.
It was a list of negatives.
Here I am.
I'm just arriving to do a uh and and Snerdley was not the first screener.
Melvis Nerdly was the uh the first screener.
Uh and they assigned Melville Surdley.
I mean, I'm young and green, I didn't have a chance to choose one.
They just assigned me Melva Snerdley, who spent all of her time talking to me about Maurice Valency furniture.
She loved Maurice Valency couches.
She was a good screener.
She was a good screener, but I I've had my run-ins with Thacker.
I'll get an email from him now.
But every time I flip the switch on the golden EIB microphone, it is with the sole purpose of providing you excellence in broadcasting.
Well, get this.
You know, Obama once thought there were 57 states in the United States.
He signed the uh the guest book at Westminster Abbey and placed a wreath at the grave of the unknown warrior there.
He said it is a great privilege to commemorate our common heritage and common sacrifice.
And he wrote the date underneath that passage to commemorate his trip.
You know what date he wrote?
24 May 2008.
2008's three years ago.
Now, you can say what you want, Snerdley, but Herman Kane, but he knows what year it is.
Obama thinks it's 2008.
How do you do that?
How do you think it's 2000?
What is on your mind when you're writing it's a great privilege to commemorate our common heritage and common sacrifice in the guest book at Westminster Abbey.
Maybe this is what he means by leading from Behind.
Maybe he wants history to know he was there in 2008 and is responsible for all that's happened since.
Maybe he was trying to pull a fast one on everybody.
Or maybe he thinks he's still in campaign mode.
Maybe he thinks it's well, we know he's campaigning.
That's what the stop in Ireland was all about.
That's what the stop in Europe is all about.
And by the way, he finally came up with a class gift for the Queen.
A nice leather-bound pictoral display of her parents' visits to the United States.
King George the Sixth, about whom the movie uh the King's speech was made, and uh her mother, the Queen Mom, Queen Elizabeth.
It was classy.
Somebody obviously was hired to come up with an idea for a gift for Queen Elizabeth.
But there's Obama, 57 states, and signed the date today in the guest book at Westminster Abbey, 24 May, 2008.
I'm open for suggestions on how this could have happened.
What must have been in his mind?
Okay, we're back.
Can you imagine, folks, if Ronaldus Magnus had gotten a date wrong by three years at the Westminster Abbey gift book or guest book?
The Alzheimer's crowd would already be out there.
Plus, did you note also that uh Obama wrote the date in the European way?
He wrote it day, month, year instead of month, day, year the way we do it here in America.
It's very pretentious.
Twenty-four May 2008.
But it wasn't 08, it was 2008.
He wrote out all four letters of the year.
He was uh probably focusing on that, got the euro.
He's probably focusing on the European way to do it and got the year wrong.
It's off by three years.
Okay, Richard in Yorktown, Virginia.
Hello, sir.
Great to have you on the EIB network.
Richard?
...the abyss we live in now.
I'm calling about those two malcontents that you had on your show earlier.
Yes, sir, in the first hour of the program, right.
I you know, I this is a rhetorical question, but how do people get through life being so misinformed or uninformed or malinformed?
I have a better question for you.
How do they get past my call screener?
Well, you'll have to work that one out.
But I'm actually ragging Mo Thackers.
Typical of you know, I I think identity politics.
And the second one was a libertarian who thinks that we can just slam the doors on the whole world.
I mean, we're way past that now.
Yeah, for people that didn't hear, let's read two callers, the first two calls today, I dubbed them the malcontents of the day because they were malcontent.
The first guy um disagreed with with me that Obama's doing a great job because he's not doing a bad job.
That that's what he said.
He also said that he doesn't care about the price of gas, doesn't affect him.
Price of housing doesn't affect him, he doesn't care about any of that stuff.
Uh I asked him uh about that in terms of uh how good a job Obama's doing is didn't matter.
Does that pass for common sense now?
And and he also uh he he did admit that Obama's race was a primary factor and and one of the reasons why he liked him.
And of course, at that point, all right, it's time to move on.
Um that's that's fraught with too much danger, and it's ridiculous.
And and it's typical.
Yeah, it's typical.
So you're doing a you yeah, so what you said, basically mind on the robot or the second guy, you're right, was a libertarian who called Israel a welfare state.
What do they do for us?
We give them four billion, but you gotta admit I followed that up with a bang bang story about Obama's tax cheats being paid from the stimulus bill.
You slammed the door on it, but it does it's still it it's maddening because I believe that the 08 election was not an election.
It was the presidential version of American Idol.
I don't want to go through that again.
Yeah, yeah, I know what you mean.
It was.
It's a great way to put it.
Popular contest and and uh partly that's because Obama's a blank slate.
Everybody could paint on him whatever they wanted, uh whatever they wanted him to be.
Uh I hope that day has passed.
Well, you're gonna have blind followers uh uh for any anyway.
But you're but you but you're gonna have the media every year uh facilitating Democrat candidates that way or however way they have to be facilitated.
Speaking of candidates, to tell you the truth, I'm rather excited about the broad range of candidates that are gonna bring their views to this political slate.
You know, I agree I agree with you.
This is not it's it's starting to get interesting to me now.
Uh Daniels saying no, Rudy thinking about getting in, Herman Cain, Bachman thinking about getting in, Palin thinking about getting in buying the house in Scottsdale, Arizona.
I wish that uh Trump had pushed his cart a little further down the road.
Um I I want to see that kind of thing in the world.
Well, NBC got in the way there.
NBC basically made him decide now.
Do you want to continue to host this show?
All the you know, NBC, all they had to say was look, we can do this show without you.
I mean, that's uh that believe me, they knew what to say to Trump.
We can do the apprentice without you.
We don't need you.
That's that's that's that was uh wound right straight to the heart.
So NBC forced that.
Well, keep up a good work, Rush, and and thank God for it.
You have a preference, thank you.
You have a preference uh so far in the Republican field.
Yeah, I have one.
Uh my first candidate isn't even in it yet, and that's Christy.
Yeah.
But I'll go down the list.
Um Palin, Bachman.
Uh uh I I would put Pollenty in there with I mean uh Rick Perry in there with him, but he's also not in yet.
Not yet.
I like Pollenty.
Did you hear Palency on the show yesterday?
Yeah, I sure did.
He was good yesterday.
He was good, but I've heard Rick uh in the past, and uh you know, I just like everything he says.
No, wait, Palency.
I mean Palency.
I've heard I like everything he says, but uh I tell you the problem that that we're having right now, and that is name recognition.
I do not want to have to vote for Mitt Romney.
Why?
Because I think Romney represents the old entrenched Republican party, and I think that he is just the darling of the the old entrenched Republicans because he's a northeastern Republican.
Which is like saying he's a Southern Democrat or something.
I mean uh i Romney is just too old guard for me.
And you have Romney care.
I have relatives who live in Massachusetts, that's where I'm from originally.
Right.
And it is a horrible, horrible situation up there uh with the health care.
The first thing the health care insurers went out.
Uh the cost of health care went up, so everybody went on base state care and the quality went down.
Yeah.
Uh as you the unintended consequences, these guys never think dynamically.
They they just think people are gonna act like robots.
I don't care.
And people don't.
Tax rates go up, people find a way to avoid 'em.
They don't just sit there, those that can avoid them.
They don't sit there and pay it.
Well, the Massachusetts politicians turned that into a welfare state.
Uh and and people didn't see it coming because they think that they're so much smarter than most of us, especially us Southerners.
Oh, yeah.
I know.
I know what you're talking about.
Well, you know, we're on our bare feet and straw hats, and and we still have hitching posts in front of the banks.
I mean, that's how that's how condescending some of them really are.
Yeah, gun racks, you know, get to church on Saturday night, get the great parking spot for Sunday service.
When I was a kid, I first came to Virginia and I made the mistake of thinking because Southerners had a different way that they weren't as sharp.
Well, I learned that lesson forty years ago was a mistake.
But I don't know.
Here in the here in the South, we we we do it our own way.
And I don't care how the rest of them do it.
Well, and you're not really the South.
You're a Yorktown V Yeah, you're Yorktown Virginia.
You're not really I'm not deep south.
Deep South.
No, I'm Yorktown, Virginia, which is you're a South enough to be offended.
I'm South enough to have had the largest number of Civil War battlefields here.
Yeah.
Robert E. Lee.
I mean, a lot of the civil war was fought here.
I don't consider I don't I I don't sympathize with either side on on a civil war.
I don't want to get into that, but I I do consider myself a Southerner.
Okay.
No, it was the Civil War.
And the and Lincoln was our greatest president outside of Washington.
And Obama's the worst.
Richard?
Sir.
Great way to end the call.
Thanks very much.
I uh I appreciate it.
We're Yeah, they get to church on Saturday night to make sure they get the closest parking space for church services on Sunday.
Yeah, that's what that's that's one of the accusations.
That's one of the ways they uh make fun of Southerners, the hay seeds, so forth.
Anyway, I gotta take a brief uh brief break here.
We'll be back and continue right after this.
Are we still having reverb problems?
I hear it periodically here in my uh real radio announcer headphone system.
Well, I don't wear headphones, but my real radio announcer audio system occasionally.
Not enough to distract me because I am a highly trained broadcast specialist and can overlook it.
But I just wondered if it was uh happening down the line.
You know, if Sarah Palin had thought this was 2008, Katie Courick would have stormed a CBS anchor disc last night and tried to take over the news just to report it.
Oh, seriously.
Reagan Palin, any thought it was three years ago.
They were out there, they're making excuses for Obama.
He jet lagged, he was tired.
Uh any uh any number of things.
You gotta listen to this soundbite.
This is uh F. Chuck Todd and Savannah Guthrie.
They're on uh MSNBC Daily Rundown this morning.
Co-host F. Chuck traveling with the Obamas and reported where the Obamas slept last night in London.
Apparently, Mr. and Mrs. Obama are staying in the same room that Kate and Will stayed in the night after they got married.
I'm just saying, now nobody will confirm if it's the same dead.
Which they are staying in the same room.
Why Palace officials decided to give us that detail?
I don't know because they know at heart we're all thirteen year olds when we get information.
Exactly.
But you know, on your wedding night, you're so tired.
Wow.
Ho ho ho ho ho Savannah Guthrie telling the world that she was so tired on her wedding night.
That's what that means.
Did you catch F. Chuck here?
There was a lot of crosstalk.
He said, nobody will confirm if it's the same bed.
That uh President and Michelle my bell stayed in.
But it was the same room.
And then F. Chuck says, Yeah, you know, we all turn to 13 year olds with stories like this, and Savannah Guthrie, yeah.
Well, you know, on your wedding night, you're so tired.
Charles or Chaz, I should better say, Lexington, Kentucky.
Hello, sir.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Thank you very much.
I want to thank you and Mr. Sternley for taking my call.
You bet, sir.
It is indeed a great privilege and a high honor to speak with you.
I appreciate that.
Thank you very much.
To quote our great friend Chris Matthews, I think there's a thrill running up my leg.
Ooh.
And you do have fun, sir, and so do we.
Uh uh for for any of those of us that have been privileged to sit on hold for an hour and a half.
You get to hear all the wonderful funny ads and and uh and uh parodies and everything again.
It really is fun.
It is an added bonus for people who are on hold because it is a long time.
Most people are on hold on this show.
I'm I appreciate your patience hanging around.
As they say, good things come to those who wait.
I send you Jewish Republican bluegrass, Kentucky Wildcat, Sharp Southerner Diddos.
Well, thank you, sir.
Um and I want to thank you so much for your unconditional support of Israel.
You talked uh probably about an hour, hour and a half ago about how the Jewish people have survived many civilizations that haven't.
We have a joke about that any time we celebrate a Jewish holiday.
There are three lines to a Jewish holiday.
They tried to kill us, they failed.
Let's eat.
They tried to kill us, they failed, let's eat.
Yes, sir.
I'm gonna make a prediction here that the next geo candid GOP Candidate, whoever he or she is, will get more than forty percent of the Jewish vote, which is currently the record held by Ronald Reagan against Jimmy Carter.
I keep hearing this.
I keep hearing it, and I would love for that to be true.
If it happens, it means Florida and Ohio almost certainly go to the GOP, which makes it very difficult for the Democrats to win.
Yeah, but you know, I tell you, liberals are liberals first, and you can confront them with all of the damning truth that you can muster, and it won't move them.
Particularly depends on who tells them.
You know, the truth can be the truth, but if the wrong person tells you, you'll discount it.
Yep.
Have have you seen Ed Koch's uh uh miss it today and saw it, I heard Ed Koch uh Ed Koch, a good friend of mine, smoked cigars with Ed Koch once.
Good.
I say that because people are starting to get that.
I find I can irritate people by either saying I play golf with them or smoke cigars with them.
Now, Koch, he's I I I've heard him.
He uh he thought Obama would be an improvement asset U.S. foreign policy.
He admits that it's been the opposite.
Mm-hmm.
Well, I have a number of Jewish friends who did vote for Obama in 08 that are that are having serious second thoughts.
And another point that uh that has been made is a lot of rich Jews are keeping their wallets and pocketbooks closed this year.
Well, now I have seen that story, but it's but it's it's still early, and you know it'll depend on what those Jewish people are told about the Republican nominee, who d depending on who it is.
Well, I hope I hope enough of them will make up their own minds.
I also wanted to defend the state of Israel and uh against that person that said that the that the state of Israel was welfare queens.
I needed to remind that person that we've been sending more money to Egypt than we have to Israel every year, that most of the tele most of the technology in your cell phones is Israeli, and after 9 11, the U.S. sent their best experts over to Israel to talk with the IDF and to talk with Mossad about how to fight terrorism.
That's that's not a well-known story, but but uh of course Israel's been on the front lines of terrorism for sixty something years now.
You know as well as I do that you've got uh conspiracy theory bigots.
Uh you know the cliches better than I do about how you are the you control the money, you can get power and all this.
Trust me, I'm a poor Jew.
I don't control as much money as I'd like to.
Yeah.
Well, but you still know that though those those are the the the cliches are are everywhere and exist on the left too.
