Time Text
Yes, America's Anchorman is away and this is your undocumented anchor man.
Honoured, honored to be here.
We are coming to you live from Ice Station EIB in far northern New Hampshire.
If you're fleeing the country, do swing by.
Always happy to see you.
You can't miss us.
There's a big sign on the highway saying last rush guest host before the border.
You can't miss us.
We would love to see you.
It is swelteringly hot here.
You know, I was listening to Rush yesterday.
Really?
Are we getting some background noise in here, are we?
No, no, no.
There's no air conditioning.
If you hear a sound here, I have like a $12 fan.
I don't want to disparage the $12 fan.
He's actually my biggest fan.
But he's sitting there in the corner and we switch him off.
We are in a non-air conditioned sweatbox here, Mr. Snadley.
So if you're hearing any.
No, I would like to have women fanning me with banana leaves, but banana leaves, they are fanning me with maple leaves.
And that's all.
That's all.
It's brutal here.
And I'm listening to Rush yesterday.
I'm sitting because I come in here, clean the windowless sweatbox out to get it all ready to do the show in.
And I'm listening to Rush talking about the problems of smoking cigars on EIB-1 when he's flying to Europe, which he was doing last month.
And back in June, I think it was.
And he said he smoked seven cigars in the course of flying to wherever it was, to London or Vienna or wherever he happened to be heading.
He smoked seven cigars.
And he said the thing is, when you're in the pressure, air-controlled, pressurized cabin, the cigars don't last as long because there's no humidity up there.
So the cigars dry and they start cracking.
And so you have to put them out even before you're halfway finished with them.
And I'm thinking, I'm sitting in the windowless sweatbox that is Ice Station EIB in far northern New Hampshire as Rush discourses on the problems of cigars going out prematurely when he's flying around in EIB 1.
And I'm thinking, this is no way for a Rush Limbaugh guest host to live.
I've got to do something.
I've got to up my game here in far northern New Hampshire.
But as I said, if you are fleeing the country, do swing by.
It's a very quiet border post just up the road from us.
It's not like that Windsor-Detroit tunnel.
By the way, that Windsor-Detroit tunnel, which the city co-owns with Windsor, Ontario, they're thinking that one of the things they could do is actually sell off their half of the tunnel.
So they could, I don't know, sell it to the Chinese or whatever.
And the Chinese would operate the Detroit, the American end of the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel.
That's one of their big assets.
Or I suppose they could do what they did.
I think they did this with London Bridge in the 60s, which is now somewhere in California.
They could actually, I guess, they could take their end of the Detroit-Windsor tunnel and actually ship it down to the Mexico border to be the new express check-in after the Rubio-Schumer plan passes.
So there's all kinds of things they got.
Oh, by the way, they also have Howdy Doody.
If you're wondering why howdy doody hasn't been heard from in the last half century, it's because Howdy Doody went to Detroit.
The city of Detroit paid $300,000 for the original Howdy Doody puppet, which strikes me as a lot.
But they're now thinking of selling off the high-dee-duty puppet.
So there's all kinds of things they're considering there in New York.
I always get things wrong in the first hour, and I'm not really, so I'm not because I'm not really on my feet until the second hour, and so there's all kinds of mistakes in the first hours I have to correct in the second hour.
And among them, I was referring, when I referred to the Battle of Detroit in the War of 1812, I said the city, I don't know what I was thinking of, I said the city was taken by the Royal Newfoundland Flexibles.
And in fact, of course, they're the Royal Newfoundland Fencibles.
Fencibles are regiments that aren't really meant to invade anywhere.
They're meant, as their name suggests, they're meant to just sit at home and look after the garrison.
They man the fence.
If there was seriously any proposal for a border fence in the immigration bill, you could have the Royal California Fencibles manning the border fence.
But there isn't any fence, so you won't need a regiment of fencibles.
But anyway, the Royal Newfoundland Fencibles were the ones who took Detroit without a shot being fired back in the War of 1812.
I don't know what I was thinking of when I said the Royal Newfoundland Flexibles.
It sounds like something to do with the self-lubricating catheter.
And I can't think of anything they need less in Newfoundland.
And there was something out.
Actually, speaking of that, now we're getting self-lubricating.
The other thing I got wrong was that the kosher lube I mentioned, that the kosher lube that had been invented, has just been decertified.
The Rabbinical Council of California's Kashrut Division has just decertified the kosher lube.
So there is no code.
Don't get excited.
Any Jewish listeners, don't get excited.
There is no kosher lube.
It's been decertified.
Okay, I think that's all the mistakes I made in the first hour.
Let's get on with the second hour.
It's the end of the week, and you know what that means.
Live from Ice Station EIB, it's open line Friday.
Yes, 1-800-282-2882.
You know how this works.
Monday to Thursday, the show is in the hands of a broadcast specialist of the highest ability.
And he determines the content of the program.
But on Friday, we let you have your say, talk about anything you want to talk about.
Now, yesterday, Rush did Open Line Friday on Thursday, but he is still a highly trained broadcast specialist.
So the show doesn't get too far out of whack.
But there is no highly trained broadcast specialist available today, just cheap, sub-minimum wage, foreign labor.
So feel free to call and talk about anything you want to talk about.
You can talk about some of the big things.
We've been talking about the bankruptcy of Detroit.
And this is a big thing.
This is a big thing.
You know, one of the things Rush was talking about psychology yesterday as it applies to the Republican Party.
But it applies to America in the broader sense, too.
And one of the ways countries adjust to decline is to psychologically, preemptively write things off.
So by the time bad things happen, you just give a kind of fatalistic shrug.
And that's really what's happened with the Detroit bankruptcy because everyone's digested all the bad news out of Detroit.
You know, the population's fallen by two-thirds, and it has you have to wait an hour if you call 911 and all the rest.
People have heard all this stuff for so long that they just give a shrug.
But it is literally incredible.
As I said, 50 years ago, this city had the highest standard of living in the United States, which at that time had the highest standard of living in the world.
The rest of the developed world was still kind of digging out from all the rubble of World War II.
So this is incredible.
This is far worse than When you look at, I think one of the expressions got me into trouble when I was, and I had to go on with Frank Beckman and WJR and explain to the listeners of Detroit why I'd said all this stuff.
I think one of the phrases that I used rather casually was that it looked like a banana republic after a coup.
But it's worse than that.
There was no coup.
There was no invasion.
You're not talking about what happened to Mogadishu.
You're not talking about what happens to some dump city in Afghanistan.
This was the city with the highest per capita income in the United States.
And what has happened to it, what has happened to it, ought to be a source of shame for all Americans and a warning to the rest of the country.
Because as we were talking about earlier, this is the template.
They did everything Democrats want to do.
They gave generous social benefits.
They gave generous welfare benefits.
And in almost a textbook illustration of Mrs. Thatcher's favorite line, eventually they ran out of other people's money.
And people, by the way, they don't even get the point of that.
They say, oh, well, you know, the problems of Detroit, they're caused by people leaving the city.
Yeah, well, why do people leave the city?
How can it be that a city of 1.8 million people is now down to 700,000?
It's a third of the size.
I mean, again, that's an emptying out.
That's like they don't have, they haven't had that kind of emptying out since the gold rush in the Yukon when the last gold mine closes down, the last prospector gets on the last dog sled out, and the last hoochie-coochie dancer tucks the last dollar bill in her garter and smooths down her skirt and skedaddles out of there too.
That's what this is.
That's the scale.
That's the scale of demographic decline that's gone on in Detroit.
And this is a time for an honest discussion about that.
That basically if you loot the future to bribe the present, which is what public sector union policies do, supported by government, and there shouldn't be public sector unions, by the way, government workers are the last people who need a union.
If you loot the future to bribe the present, as Detroit has done, as Greece has done, as the United States is doing, eventually you run out of future.
And that's what happened in Detroit.
So if you want to talk about that, we'll talk about that.
There's other things going on.
John McCain was asked a fascinating question by a journalist from CNS News in Washington on Capitol Hill.
He was asked, can I ask you a question about the Senate immigration bill?
Under the bill, how many passports can someone forge before it becomes a crime?
And Senator McCain replied, you're going to have to ask our folks that.
I don't think that we stand for any forgeries.
John McCain doesn't know what's in his own bill.
When he says you're going to have to ask, quote, our folks, unquote, that, this is what it's become in a republic of small government.
Our folks, McCain has folks who write the laws for him that are approved of in his name, and he doesn't know what's in them.
There's a remarkable section in this bill, section 1541 of the amnesty bill, trafficking in passports.
It explains that a person can be charged for a crime if they forge three or more passports.
So if you forge two passports, that's okay.
That's free.
Have the first two passports on us.
You forge two American passports, relax, don't worry about it.
We're only going to come after you if you forge a third passport.
This is incredible to me.
There's no other country on the planet that says you're allowed to forge two of its passports.
Generally speaking, people make a big fuss when you forge a passport.
But this legislation says we'll give you the first two forged passports for free.
Three forged passport strikes and you're out, but you get the first two forged passports for free.
In a bill about immigration and citizenship, in a bill about what it means to be an American, in a bill about citizenship is about allegiance.
In a bill that is about the fundamental identity of a state and the citizens within it, you're allowed to forge two passports.
Mark Stein in Farush, 1-800-2882.
We'll take your calls.
1-800-282-2882.
I'm going back to the old five-figure telephone numbers.
1-800-282-2882.
We'll take your calls straight ahead.
Mark Stein in Farush on the Excellence in Broadcasting Network.
Let us go to Brad in Grand Junction, Colorado.
Brad, you're live on the Rush Limbaugh Show.
Great to have you with us.
Excellent.
Thank you, sir.
I would like to say I think of all the fill-in hosts, you are my favorite to listen to.
Thank you very much.
Cheap foreign label.
Sir, I'd like to make a comment with regards to Detroit.
You spoke a few moments ago, made a really poignant comment regarding the slow, rotting demise as opposed to just going from a bad society to a worse society.
And I've seen both.
I grew up in Michigan and as a young child, traveled to Detroit, went to the Ford Rouge plant as a ninth grade trip, and we got to see awe-inspiring things.
And fast forward, when I was 20 years old in the Marine Corps, I traveled to Cairo, Egypt.
And we were there on a joint military operation.
But a couple of times during the month I was there, we traveled across the city by bus.
So you got to spend a lot of time just seeing the conditions.
And I have since referred to it as the worst place that I've ever seen in my life.
There was destruction.
There was half-built or half-destroyed homes with no exterior walls in which people lived with nothing other than sheets or fabric to protect them from the elements.
And I thought, man, that's terrible.
And I've tried to convey that picture to friends and family over the years.
And recently, in fact, as we see events unfold in the Middle East, you get to see some of those SNPs on the television.
And I can point out and say, look, that's what I was talking about.
And here we are after 25 years, 30 years later, from when I remember being a boy and seeing the awe from Michigan to watching its slow, rotting demise.
And I think the biggest correlation that I can draw between those two, if any, is, if nothing else, just poor governance in a place like Egypt has just made one bad place even worse.
And in a place like Detroit, that's taken something that's been fantastic and just has driven it into the ground.
I'll make one comment on that, Brad, because I think in Cairo, one of the problems is that they've had an exploding population over the last century, basically.
The population grows very fast.
So as you say, you have people living in what are essentially tent cities where they'll find a cemetery or a public park and this kind of shanty town will arise on the edge of it with sort of dogs and as you say, just plastic sheeting to provide the walls and all the rest of it.
That's because they've had an explosion of population.
In Detroit, the opposite happened.
They drove the productive people.
They drove two-thirds of the population out of the city.
In a way, it's a more Cairo for the last 200 years has sort of always been a ramshackle city with one foot in the modern world and one foot in the park.
It's certainly deteriorated over the last six decades from the cosmopolitan city it was in the mid-20th century.
But what they did in Detroit is even more spectacular.
I mean, imagine taking an American, a first world city and turning it into what you saw in Cairo.
I mean, that's like, that's even worse.
In other words, to have made it, to have built a first world city through guys like Henry Ford and Walter Chrysler and the Dodge brothers and all these other pioneers, and then turn it into what you saw in Cairo is actually a far more difficult thing to do.
And it's incredible they were able to do it, Brad.
I wholeheartedly agree to see the images 25 years later on the television and point out to my family that that's what I saw back then and really see that not much has changed.
You know, points to the fact you just, the comment you just made, it's been that way forever, at least as far as we can recall.
But you've got a city like Detroit that it's not been that long and it's gone from something so fantastic to something so destroyed and terrible, actually.
Well, and I'll tell you one other thing that's valid about the Cairo comparison, too.
I mean, Egypt's economy can't grow because essentially the military, since the coup in 1952 that overthrew King Farouk, the military basically has a monopoly on the Egyptian economy.
Various generals and colonels are given this slice of the economy and they're the people you have to do favors with to do anything in Egypt.
And they're the exact equivalent of the kleptocrat political class that has ruined Detroit.
It's the military in Egypt.
It's the public sector unions and the Democrat Party in Detroit.
So those comparisons are well taken.
But as I said, you know, the thing about this is when you go to Cairo, you expect to be in a hot, ramshackle, overpopulated Arab city where nothing works, there's a lot of corruption and all the rest of it.
And that historically has been better than a lot of other places.
The late Princess Fawzia, who died a couple of weeks ago, she was the first wife of the Shah of Iran, and she went back to Cairo because she thought Tehran was backward compared to Cairo.
But what happened to Detroit, the self-inflicted wound, is absolutely unprecedented.
And the only way you're going to correct that, that's why there's only one happy ending that comes out of this.
If bankruptcy court rules that creditors, that pensioners, that the workers with the public sector benefits, they have to take the hit too.
The guys who are responsible, who are responsible for $9 billion of the unsecured loans, of the $11 billion of unsecured loans, if this establishes the precedent that public sector pension funds can actually be reined in and the benefits reduced, then some good will come out of this and some possibility for the city of Detroit and for other cities across the United States.
Yes, Rush returns live on Monday for the EIB Royal Baby Watch special.
So don't miss that.
It'll be three hours of live coverage of the stalk bringing his joyous bundle to the Duchess of Cambridge.
That's Rush Returns Live for the Royal Baby Watch special Monday on the EIB network.
Robert Reich has just said that Detroit is bankrupt because the rich abandoned the poor.
Americans are segregating by income, leaving the poor behind in their own separate cities.
Any wonder Detroit goes bankrupt.
By the way, you know who are the best.
I have some sympathy for that view.
One of the things, if you've lived in class-bound societies, one of the things that was always bracing about America, at least for its first couple of centuries, was that everybody in you could go to an average American town and the boss and the secretary and the guy on the factory floor all lived in the same town.
They'd been to the same schools.
The doctor would marry his nurse, the lawyer would marry his secretary, and you had a great social mix of people.
Charles Murray has got the best ripos to Robert Reich's thing, which is about how you have basically now self-segregation and elite breeding.
The well-to-do, the upper-middle class in America, all go to their elite educational institutions.
So the doctor doesn't marry the nurse now, he marries another expert medical specialist.
The lawyer doesn't marry his secretary, marries another high-powered lawyer.
And that you have the, they sort of breed like medieval dynasties at European courts.
And the question is, what's done that?
And the question is that the policies that the elites advance result in towns they don't want to live in.
If you take Obama is a perfect example of that.
He's a community organizer.
It's great to be a community organizer.
It's hell to live in any community that's been organized by a community organizer.
No community organizer wants to live in the communities he organizes.
So Obama lives in the White House and organizes communities for the rest of you.
And people who can flee, as in Detroit, where they so organize that community to suit the corrupt political class and the kleptocrat unions, that everybody except lifelong welfare dependents fled.
Fled because they can.
That's the interesting thing about doing it at the national level, as Obama is attempting now.
It's much harder to actually flee a country than it is to flee a town.
You can flee as they have in Michigan.
You can flee from Detroit to relatively close by suburbs and still see your friends and your family and all the rest of it.
It's much harder.
If you're trying to flee a country, you've got to find a country to flee to.
I think I said, oh, by the way, update, update on the if I had a son, he would look like Trayvon.
At his latest press conference, Obama has said Trayvon Martin could have been him.
No, he couldn't.
No, he couldn't.
Obama does, like all the ruling class.
He doesn't want to live near.
The point about if Trayvon Martin, if I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon.
Obama and all the rest of the ruling class don't want to live anywhere near anyone who looks like Trayvon.
It's like they don't want to live anywhere near Detroit.
They don't want to live anywhere near Chicago.
They live, as Robert Reich said, they're self-segregating.
Obama has now said he could have been Trayvon.
No, he couldn't.
No, he couldn't.
Because when he goes to Africa, it costs $100 million.
Supporting the Obamas costs $1.4 billion.
His daughters go to Sidwell Friends School, so the chances of running into anyone like Trayvon are reduced to 0.0000001%.
So they will never stand.
And if you do, if you do happen, if Sasha or Malia happen to show up in the West Wing of the White House with a guy in a hooded sweatshirt, it'll just be like a fashion accessory.
They will not have to think, as you do on the sharp end of American social policy.
Is the guy walking toward me on the street, is he just looking like that because he's into some sort of, he's into it as a fashion accessory, or does he really mean to do me harm?
So Obama's now doubled down on his Trayvon statement.
He has never lived.
He's a Harvard man.
He's a Columbia man.
He has never had to live with in Hyde Park, where they vote something like 97% Democrat, 97% Democrat in an elite little cocoon, Hyde Park, Chicago.
They never have to live as the guys do on the other side of town with the consequences of Democrat social policy.
That's Obama.
So now he says not just if he had a son, he'd look like Trayvon.
He says he could have been Trayvon.
I would like to see that, by the way.
I would like, instead of the $1.4 billion a year expense of maintaining the citizen executive of a small government republic in this cocoon, instead of spending more than the entire cost of every European royal family combined maintaining one man, his wife and two daughters and their staff, I'd like to see, if he thinks he could have been Trayvon, that's great.
Why don't we send him to walk around Detroit?
Why don't we send him to walk around the parts of Chicago where people get shot in their dozens every weekend?
Anyway, he's now said Trayvon is not just his son, but he is Trayvon.
I am Trayvon.
Like all those people, like when you see all those white, wrinkly, granola-eating NPR listeners all having their little protests, I am Trayvon.
I am Trayvon.
Anyway, Robert Reich said that in Detroit, Detroit is bankrupt between the rich and abandoned.
No, they voted with their feet.
That's your last freedom.
That's the last freedom.
That's it.
When everything else is gone from you, you can vote with your feet.
And many people have mentioned Jews and their now decredentialed kosher lube half an hour ago.
That's what Jews did all over Europe.
When things got so bad that there's nothing left, everything is gone from them.
Then they voted with their feet.
That's what populations have done all over the world.
That's why a lot of the people who came and built America, they voted with their feet.
That's your last freedom.
That's why borders are important.
That's why cities are important.
That's why towns are important, because if you've got a crummy school in your town, there's a border four miles up the road and you can move to the next town where the school isn't dysfunctional.
That's why state borders are important, because when they have laws that crush businesses, you can move to the next state that's business-friendly.
That's why national borders are important, as we'll be talking in the next hour with James Carter.
Don't worry, it's not that James Carter.
It's not that, James Carter.
We'll be talking with James Carter, who's got a piece in the Wall Street Journal about corporate tax rates.
You know, that's, again, that's a national borders are important because they're your ultimate freedom.
You can vote with your feet.
And in Detroit, in Detroit, over a million people have voted with their feet.
That's actually incredible.
That's the nearest the United States has to the population displacements you had in Europe after the Second World War or during the partition of India in 1947.
That is incredible.
A million people upped and left from one American city because essentially the takers drove the makers out.
What would you do in Detroit now?
What would you set up there?
As I said earlier, the education system is entirely dysfunctional.
And I was on Frank Beckman's show.
The guy who'd resigned for some, I think it was something to do with sexual, some San Diego mayor type problem with women, he was actually illiterate.
They had an illiterate as the president of the school board in Detroit.
And a guy called, what was he called?
Otis Otis somebody.
I'll get his name, Otis somebody.
And he said if he could become president of the school board, even though he was illiterate, then that was inspiring to others.
Don't let people tell you that just because you can't write, you can't live your dreams.
I'm a living example of that.
I can't write.
No, no, he's worse than Rachel Jantel or whatever her name is down in Florida.
She said she couldn't read cursive when it came to reading back the letter she'd supposedly written.
This guy who was head of the school board in Detroit was even better.
He can't write cursive.
He was functionally illiterate and he thought that was an inspiring example to Detroit school children.
If you just dream your dreams, you can be anything you want to be.
No, you can't.
Try being functionally illiterate when you apply for a job in Bangalore or Shanghai or anywhere around the world.
Otis Mathis, that's the guy's name, Otis Mathis, president of the Detroit School Board at the time I was on the Frank Beckman show on WJR.
Why, that is even worse than the physical ruin of Detroit.
The decay of the human capital in the city on multi-generational welfare that serves no purpose except to maintain a vast pool of dependents to keep the permanent political class in power.
Absolutely disgraceful.
Absolutely disgraceful.
And until you can talk honestly about that, you know, there are not yet forced population relocations here.
Whatever Robert Reich says, you can't make the Henry Fords of today or the Dodge brothers of today go to Detroit and start a business when they still have the freedom to start a business anywhere on this continent or around the planet.
They still have that freedom.
Even under Obama, he can't actually move a million productive people into the city of Detroit to restore the economic energy of that city.
So what has happened here?
What has happened here?
The driving out of the productive class and the reduction of those who are left to a permanent dependency class is absolutely disgraceful.
It's a stain on American liberalism, and they should be ashamed of themselves for it.
Mark Stein in for Rush, more to come.
Mark Stein in for Rush.
Iran's mullers demand justice for Trayvon.
Iran's foreign ministry, this is from the Washington Free Beacon, Iran's Foreign Ministry criticizes the acquittal of George Zimmerman.
The acquittal of the murderer of the teenage African American once again clearly demonstrated the systematic racial discrimination in the U.S. society, says Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Syed Abbas Arakchi.
The court ruling has also seriously put under question the fairness of the judicial process in the United States.
Mr. Syed Abbas Arakchi of the Iranian Foreign Ministry, this is Iran, of course, is a country where they stone women to death and they execute you.
They execute homosexual teenagers.
So this is this, the Iranian foreign ministry, the Mullers are now demanding justice for Trayvon.
Like Obama, Obama's doubled down on his, if I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon.
He now says, I am Trayvon, which I don't think Trayvon Martin would take kindly to, given the way Obama looks in those mom jeans he wanders around in weekends.
But the president basically going, he's basically about two soundbites away from saying, bring me the head of George Zimmerman.
This is a guy who lives in fear of his life, who wears a bulletproof vest.
and has had death threats against him.
People who happen to share similar names have had death threats against them incited by that idiot filmmaker Spike Lee.
This remark, in the White House briefing room, this is a guy, by the way, he hasn't given a briefing.
He hasn't said anything about Benghazi.
He doesn't give a press conference about the IRS.
He doesn't give a press conference about the NSA.
He doesn't give a press conference about the immigration bill.
But he now showed up in the White House briefing room to say that Trayvon Martin could have been me 35 years ago.
No, he couldn't.
You were in Hawaii.
You in Hawaii.
Obama said that his staff are, quote, bouncing around ideas, unquote.
And he is now doubling down on the George Zimmerman case.
One of the things that was most disturbing to me when I got into trouble with the human rights crowd up in Canada is the Canadian Islamic Congress filed against me with the Canadian Human Rights Commission, the Ontario Human Rights Commission, and the British Columbia Human Rights Tribunal.
So that was not double jeopardy, but triple jeopardy, triple jeopardy.
In other words, you're being tried for the same thing everywhere across the map.
And that's not a free society.
We have no new evidence here.
He was found, he was tried for murder, and the jury rejected it.
The jury rejected manslaughter.
That should, in a free society, that should be the end of it.
Then they say, well, then they got, now it's just like round one.
Now we move on to the swimsuit round.
He's not guilty is just the start of the process.
They're now looking at the next stage in the process.
So they're talking about civil suits.
They're talking about federal prosecution from Eric Holder's corrupt Department of So-Called Justice.
They'll bring him up on a war crimes trial at The Hague.
It doesn't matter.
Whatever it takes, it will never end for George Zimmerman.
He should be the one running through the Detroit Windsor Tunnel and looking for another country to take him in.
This is absolutely amazing.
A jury has spoken, and the President of the United States will not let it go.
Will not let it go.
And he's now giving a press conference.
By the way, Brad Thor, the novelist, he writes fantastic thrillers.
He's got a new one out right now at the moment.
He's offered to buy.
The Department of Justice has told the state of Florida to hold all the evidence in the trial until they're ready to look at it.
So they're pulling one of these IRS Tea Party things where they're just going to sit on stuff.
And what that means is that George Zimmerman can't get his gun back.
What is happening here now is that Brad Thor, basically again, so the judgment makes no difference.
The judge told Zimmerman, you have no further business before the court.
And Eric Holder's Department of Justice said, well, that may be, but you've got to hold on to that stuff because we're not done with it yet.
Brad Thor, the novelist, who writes these terrific thrillers, and his new one is out, I believe was out just last week, has offered to buy George Zimmerman a new gun.
