Welcome to the Political Cesspool, known worldwide as the South's foremost populous radio program.
And here to guide you through the murky waters of the Political Cesspool is your host, James Edwards.
And welcome back to the Political Cesspool Radio Program.
It's Saturday evening, October 22nd.
I'm your host, James Edwards, coming to you live tonight from AM 1380, WLRM Radio Studios in Memphis, Tennessee, going after the AM affiliate stations at the Liberty News Radio Network and streaming online tonight at our website, thepolitical cesspool.org.
Well, where do you go after that first hour?
How am I going to top that?
That's the question.
I mean, what do you do now?
Help me answer it, folks.
Give me a call.
I want to hear from you.
Pat Buchanan, of course, was our guest.
Pat Buchanan, America's leading populist conservative, senior advisor to three presidents, a man who, as we mentioned during the first hour, very nearly won the Republican nomination in 1996, was the Reform Party's candidate in 2000, which is where I got my start in politics.
He's authored 10 books, including his latest bestseller, which he was on for about 30 minutes to promote tonight, a little bit longer than that.
Suicide of a Superpower, Will America Survive to 2025.
Get it tonight at Buchanan.org.
Pat, of course, is also a syndicated columnist and the founding member of three of America's foremost public affairs shows, including the McLaughlin Group, Capital Gang, Crossfire.
He's a political analyst for MSNBC.
What doesn't Pat Buchanan do?
I guess it's a little backward just to introduce Pat Buchanan an hour after he appeared on the program.
But listen, what did you think of the Pat Buchanan interview?
I want to hear your feedback now.
1-866-986-News.
1-866-986-News is our phone number.
And, you know, I'm going to put this up on the website maybe tomorrow.
You can go ahead and vote tonight over the phone.
Who will be the first to denounce Pat's appearance on the show?
Who will be the first?
Will it be the ADL, the SPLC, or Media Matters?
Every time Pat comes on the political cesspool, he gets it from all three of them.
Who's going to be the first?
That's the question.
Cast your vote by calling in.
Who will be the first to scream and cry bloody murder over the fact that Pat Buchanan came back to the political cesspool tonight?
That's what I want to know.
1866-986 News.
What a great interview it was.
The book came out just not even a week ago on Tuesday.
First show we could have had him on after the release of the title, and he stayed on with us for extended play.
And if you didn't get enough of Pat Buchanan tonight, he's going to be on the Liberty Roundtable with Sam Bushman in a few days.
We're going to have Sam Bushman on the show a little bit later tonight.
He had a very interesting trip himself not too long ago.
And we're going to let him tell you all about it.
And we'll talk about Pat some more.
We'll be talking about Pat for the bulk of this hour, I guess, waiting for your call.
Pat has written, obviously, the book, but he has complemented the book with a couple of very provocative columns in recent days.
Is America Disintegrating And The End of White America.
Those are the titles of his two most recent columns.
I want to read Is America Disintegrating for You?
Because it really complements everything we did during the first hour.
And then we'll move on to some other things and kind of go back and forth for the rest of the evening.
But Pat's writes this.
In Federalists II, John Jay looks at a nation of common blood, faith, language, history, customs, and culture.
Are we still that one united people today?
Or has America become what Clemens von Matternick called Italy a mere geographical expression?
In Suicide of a Superpower, Pat Buchanan argues that the America we grew up in is disintegrating, breaking apart along the fault lines of politics, race, ethnicity, culture, and faith.
Our politics are as poisonous as they have been in our lifetimes.
Sarah Palin was maligned as morally complicit in the murder attempt on Gabrielle Giffords.
Terms like terrorists and hostage takers are routinely used on Tea Party members who one congressman said wanted to see blacks hanging on a tree.
Half a century after the Civil Rights Revolution triumphed, the termed racist racism, they're in daily use.
And Pat and I talked about this during the first hour.
We remain, said Eric Holder, in calling us a nation of cowards, as socially segregated as ever.
Outside the workplace, the situation is even more bleak, and that there is almost no significant interaction between us.
On Saturdays and Sundays, America does not, in some ways, differ significantly from the country that existed some 50 years ago.
That's what Holder said.
And as Pat writes, he's not altogether wrong in that.
In California, prisons, and among her proliferating ethnic gangs, black and brown civil wars have broken out.
Yet by 2042, there will be 66 million black folks and 135 million Hispanics here, the latter concentrated in the states bordering Mexico.
What holds us together then?
We are not now and will not be descended from common ancestors.
We will consist of all the races, culture, tribes, and creeds of earth, a multiracial, multicultural, multi-ethnic, multilingual stew of a nation that has never before existed or survived.
The parallels that come to mind are the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia that disintegrated after the Cold War.
No more will we speak the same language.
We will be bilingual and binational.
Spanish radio and TV stations are already the fastest growing.
In Los Angeles, half the people speak a language other than English in their own homes.
As for professing the same religion, where 85% of Americans were Christians in 1990, that is down to 75% today and plummeting.
The old Christian churches, Presbyterian, Methodist, Lutheran, and especially Episcopalian, are splitting, shrinking, and dying, as Keith Alexander and I talked about after Pat left us in the first hour.
Where three in four Catholics attended Sunday Mass in 1960, now it's one in four.
The moral consensus and moral code Christianity gave to us have collapsed.
What was morally repellent, promiscuity, homosexuality, abortion, is now seen by perhaps half the nation as natural, normal, healthy, and progressive.
Socially, too, America is breaking down.
Out-of-wedlock births in 1950 were rare, but today, 41% of all American children were born out of wedlock.
Among Hispanics, it's 51%.
Among blacks, 71%.
And the correlation between illegitimacy, the drug rate, the dropout rate, the crime rate, and the incarceration rate is absolute.
This helps to explain the four decades of plunging test scores of American children and the quadrupling of the prison population.
And while all of this is happening, the state is failing.
We cannot control our borders.
win our wars or balance the budget.
In three consecutive national elections, the incumbents have been repudiated.
Confidence in politics, politicians, and the future of the country has never been so low in our lifetimes.
The new secession is coming, and it's not going to be like the secession of 1861.
It's a secession of the heart from one another.
Ladies and gentlemen, if you enjoyed those excerpts from Pat Buchanan's most recent column, you're going to love his new book, the book that he was on as my featured guest tonight to discuss.
Suicide of a superpower.
Get it this evening.
Buchanan.org.
I'm James Edward.
We're taking a break.
We'll be back more right after this.
Don't go away.
There's more political cesspool coming your way right after these messages.
Welcome back.
To get on the Political Cesspool, call us on James's Dime, toll-free, at 1-866-986-6397.
And here's the host of The Political Cesspool, James Edwards.
All right, everybody, taking a breather here.
The big interviews behind us.
We're going to get back to promoting Pat's book later on in the program.
We're going to get back to talking more about his interview with us tonight.
But we're going to cover some other subjects, too.
This is a Jack of All Trades show.
We like to cover the entire spectrum.
What's on your mind tonight?
Let me know.
Let me know.
1-866-986-News.
1-866-986-6397.
You want to talk about the Pat Buchanan interview?
You want to talk about something else?
I'm all ears.
And let's talk about what else we're covering on the blog this week.
Of course, thepoliticalcesspool.org is the official internet headquarters of our award-winning show.
And if you can't get enough of us each Saturday for the three hours we're on live across the nation and around the world on the internet, you can always get your daily fix of TPC opinion and commentary at our official internet headquarters, thepolitical cesspool.org.
And there, since last Saturday, we've been covering quite a bit of things.
We're going to recap some of that on the show, what's left of the show tonight.
Richard Spencer, my good friend, of course, I was there at the National Policy Institute press conference in Washington, D.C. last month, which was hosted by Richard and his organization.
Richard also wears a couple of hats, as we all do.
He, in addition to serving on the board of the National Policy Institute, administers the great website, alternativeright.com.
And under his, in his capacity as an editor of Alternative Right, they interviewed the YouTube sensation Ramsey Paul.
Ramsey Paul, this week, this guy, this is a funny guy.
We feature some of Ramsey Paul's videos on our website intermittently.
I love his wit.
I love his humor.
I love his sarcasm.
And I love the fact that somebody that I know has pulled in an interview with him.
Again, Richard Spencer, editor of Alternative Right, recently conducted an interview with the popular YouTube commentator known as Ramsey Paul, during which they discussed the impossibility of parroting the politically correct and contemporary American mores.
You can check it out tonight, thepoliticalcesspool.org.
Ramsey Paul can also be seen at youtube.com slash Ramsey Paul and ramzepaul.com, Zee is in Zebra.
Also there in that blog entry, I repost for you an interview that Richard and I did together, a video interview that Richard and I did together last year for NPI-TV.
You can check both of those great videos out tonight.
That's something we've posted in between last week's show.
And today, and speaking of Ramsey Paul, again, to get a perfect example of the kind of wit humor and sarcasm I'm talking about coming from this guy, check out his most recent video, which, as I mentioned, we did post at our website.
It's called Exploring Diversity in St. Louis.
And he basically dresses up sort of like an Indiana Jones style 19th century explorer.
He's wearing this fedora hat.
He's got a rifle in hand.
And the theme of the video is that he's an adventurer setting out to chart the untamed land known as East St. Louis, Missouri.
Which, of course, East St. Louis, Illinois, I guess it is, across the river.
It's Illinois, not Missouri.
But anyway, East St. Louis, as it's been written, what was the publication?
The local CBS affiliate in St. Louis admitted what we all know to be true.
The public housing complexes there on the east side of the river might just be the deadliest place in the country.
Although efforts are on the way, apparently, to secure the area.
Senator Dick Durbin of Illinois is bringing in federal law enforcement to help state and local authorities crack down on the crime there in East St. Louis.
Figures show that East St. Louis is nearly twice as dangerous as even the worst streets of Chicago.
We all heard Jim Croce sing about bad, bad Louis Roy Brown on the south side of Chicago.
Well, that doesn't even hold a candle to East St. Louis.
And there, you know, to punctuate the dreariness, we have Ramsey Paul doing this great skit.
I love being able to mock the enemy.
The purveyors of multiculturalism and diversity hate to be mocked.
I mean, let's face it, as Bob Whitaker, former Reagan administration appointee, has quite rightly stated, political correctness is the new state religion in America today and has been for a while.
It's replaced our traditional faith of Christianity.
And there's nothing that they hate more than having their religion of political correctness mocked.
And Ramsey Paul, you know, we all have our talents.
I have my talents.
You have yours.
But I could never be as funny as this guy if I tried.
And if I did try, it would come across as disingenuous because that's just not my nature.
And so when somebody can do something better than I, I like to give them their credit and I like to promote them.
And so Ramsey Paul there at thepolitical sessible.org tonight, if for no other reason, you should check it out.
And speaking of videos, speaking of videos, you know, the success of this radio show, we talked about this last week, and it can't be discounted.
It's no exaggeration to say That our shared message, my message and yours, has reached literally millions of people in the past seven years since this show went on the air as a result of my work on this program in my book, on my television appearances with CNN, my public speeches, and countless interviews.
You know, the Hutton Gibson, Mel Gibson's dad, was on the show last year.
That interview alone, just that interview alone, was picked up and written about in over 100 different newspapers around the world.
And I mean big ones, not your community weekly.
I'm talking about the biggest newspapers in the world covered that single interview.
And there have been countless other instances like that, interviews I've done in newspapers and magazines.
You add it all together.
It's no exaggeration to say that I've reached millions of people in the past decade.
Kind of like, you know, I like the 60s music.
I can't get back on TV anymore.
Apparently, I've become too successful to get back on television.
I haven't been invited on CNN.
Well, CNN actually did an interview with me last year, but it was for a website article.
They won't have me on TV anymore.
I guess I did too well in my previous appearances.
But kind of like all these 1960s acts, you know, I like 60s music.
They're still living off the hits that they had, you know, some 50 years ago.
They're still touring the country and doing concerts, singing the songs that they made famous, you know, five decades ago, a couple of generations ago.
Well, that's kind of like me.
You know, even though the show was still current and we're reaching a bigger audience every week, and I'm certainly very thankful to God for that.
The show is actually bigger and better than ever.
But as far as my television career goes, I'm still living off the hits I had a few years back in my CNN appearances.
But there are new people that come to listen to the show each and every week and for their benefit and for their benefit alone, because I am a very modest guy.
I'm not a shameless self-promoter as many of our as many people are.
But I have reposted all of these CNN appearances that I did in 2007 back on the website.
It's current right now.
It's the James Edwards CNN compilation.
And I encourage you to take a look at them.
A couple of videos on there, a little sampling, if you will.
One of the videos, you know, I talked about reaching millions of people over the last seven years when you combine all of my various efforts.
It's certainly not an exaggeration.
One of these videos alone on YouTube has received nearly 100,000 unique views.
100,000.
And this doesn't count the people who saw it when it was originally aired on CNN.
This is just on YouTube.
100,000 people have seen it.
And in that particular video, I debate an NAACP spokesman on the issue of black-on-white murder.
A very interesting debate.
Kieran Chetri was the host of that one.
A couple of my appearances on Polyzon.
I talk about the ongoing demographic changes in America, as well as a three-part panel discussion on self-segregation.
It's all there at thepolitical Success Pool.org.
Folks, I got to take a break.
Be back with more right after this.
To get on the show and express your opinion in the political cesspool, call us toll-free at 1-866-986-6397.
Big girls don't cry.
All right, everybody.
Welcome back.
Welcome back to the Political Successful Radio Program.
James Edwards here with you.
Got a caller on the line, and I appreciate him holding through the break.
AW in Alabama.
What can we do for you, AW?
Mr. Edwards, it's a pleasure to talk to you, sir.
I just wanted your opinion on something, and this is, I honestly do not know the answer to this question, and I wanted to hear your take on it.
Fire away.
I've heard people say that with the demographic changes in the Southeast.
Now, you're in Memphis.
I know you grew up in Memphis.
I grew up in the Birmingham area.
And we're both in our 30s.
We kind of have similar backgrounds, you know, Southern Baptists and all that.
Sure, yeah.
I just see, I'm wondering if you think that white people have a future in the Southeast and future generations.
Or are we going to have to leave it and go somewhere else?
The more I, you know, every day it seems to get worse, you know, encroaching.
Third world is encroaching.
You know what I'm saying?
Well, yeah, you ask a great question.
I don't have a crystal ball.
I can't see into the future any better than you or anyone else.
But I'll tell you, it's probably a little bit bleaker in places like Memphis and Birmingham.
Every time I go down to Atlanta and I drive through Birmingham, yeah, it's pretty scary.
But not all pockets of the South are that bad.
You know, you go down into some of these smaller communities in Mississippi and you feel right at home.
It's a great familial bond that you share.
And there's still some, you know, South Carolina, there's some parts there, you know, all across the South.
There are still pockets of the old South that still exist.
And I mean that in a very favorable way.
I don't know.
I mean, obviously the demographic trends that are prevailing in America are happening faster here in the South because many of the minorities that were brought here stayed here.
They don't tend to move so much.
And in this case, I'm talking about African Americans.
Obviously, the Southwest has another whole problem altogether with illegal immigration from Mexico.
And we get that too, you know, here in the Southeast, but not quite as much, not quite as much as Mexico and Arizona and Texas, California.
You know, are we going to have to move or can it be saved here?
I don't know to answer your question, but I'll tell you this.
This is where I was born.
I was born in Memphis and I'm going to die in Memphis.
You know, this was the place where my roots began.
I don't want to be run out.
And I don't know if that's naive to believe that way or if that's stubbornness or stupidity, you know, because Memphis is a very dangerous place to live, especially the downtown area.
Obviously, the suburbs are a little bit better, and every big city has suburbs that make life tolerable.
I don't know what it's going to look like.
You know, Pat Buchanan and I obviously were talking about that.
What's America itself going to look like in another 15 years of decline?
But, you know, I can't leave, I can't leave home.
My people are buried here.
My grandparents are buried here.
This is where I was born.
I shouldn't be run out.
I don't want to be run out.
I love the South.
I love Memphis because this is where all my memories have been.
This is where I met my wife.
This is where I was born.
Everything good, and I guess bad, it's everything that ever happened to me happened in Memphis.
And I just don't want to surrender.
And I don't know if everybody believes like that.
I don't know if everyone's going to follow suit.
But, you know, I'm going to hold strong and just try to make the best of it.
And hopefully, if enough people do that and enough people begin to exert their political muscle, you know, we can reclaim or we can restake our flag here.
I don't know.
What do you think?
Well, I'm in the same boat that you are.
I'm an 11th generation Southerner and a 9th generation Alabamian.
See, God bless you.
You know, that's another thing.
Getting all back to the South thing, you know, and I don't mean to interrupt you, and I certainly am going to give you time to finish your point, but that's another thing.
If I moved, if I ever moved, which I don't plan on doing, it would have to be somewhere else in the South.
And any, you know, if it's any big city in the South, they're going to have the same problems as Memphis.
And, you know, I had an ancestor, my great-grandfather's grandfather.
He died in service to the Confederate cavalry at Shiloh.
You know, I'm not leaving Tennessee.
You know, this is home.
You know, this is where my people took a stand.
It means something to me much more than just, as we're talking about geographical location.
It's blood and soil to me.
This is it.
I'm going to stay here.
Yes, yes.
You know, recently we had the most stringent illegal immigration law in Alabama.
Yeah, congratulations.
In the country, yes.
And it was being enforced.
But now, of course, there's all these lawsuits and Eric Holder and everybody else is coming down on us.
And they're picking it apart little by little.
And, you know, I just don't know.
When you have all these problems coming down on you from the federal government, and then demographically you have, you know, the situation just seems bleak, James.
I don't know.
I don't know what to do.
Well, it does.
It does.
But, you know, I'm one of those guys, you know, kind of like the Vikings.
You know, I don't want to die in my bed.
I want to die on my ship.
I guess I want to die with a sword in hand.
And I don't mean that figuratively or literally as they did.
But, you know, I still got to stay here.
I still got to fight.
You know, it just seems as though it's a detriment to our manhood to be made to run.
And I know, you know, Alabama, I remember reading those great stories there.
They passed this great law that puts Alabamians first, puts America first.
You know, all of these illegal aliens were beginning to miss work and school because, you know, God forbid, they be forced to adhere to the laws just like all the rest of us taxpayers do.
And it was beginning to take effect.
And, you know, it was just inevitable.
The time was obviously going to come when some black-robed tyrant in a court somewhere overruled this.
And that day is going to come, more than likely.
And then what are you going to do?
I mean, most people are just going to continue to go to work and just say, oh, well, we lost again.
You know, we've got to get over that mentality.
But anyway, AW, I thank you for your question.
I believe this is your first time to call in.
It's always great to hear from a first-time caller.
And thank you for all you do and for your support.
Well, thank you for all you do, sir.
We're going to continue to do it.
And with people like you behind us, it makes it that much easier.
Thanks again.
If you would like to call in, ladies and gentlemen, I'd love to hear from you.
It doesn't have to necessarily be a question or comment pertaining to the Pat Buchanan interview.
Although, if you do want to opine on that, we would love to have you.
1-866-986 News, 1-866-986-6397.
Follow in the footsteps of our good friend A.W. down there in Alabama and call into the political cesspool tonight.
You know, I can't underestimate the fact that Pat Buchanan stayed on with us longer tonight than he has any other interview to date promoting this book.
That speaks volumes about not just our show, but the audience that we have.
And that gets back to what I was talking about earlier.
You know, we make a lot of news, the political cesspool does, because we discuss these issues.
We discuss race politics and hypocrisy in a way that not many others with a microphone would dare.
We certainly have a bullseye on our chest because we're virtually the only mainstream political talk radio commentators who discuss these issues in such a frank and objective manner week in and week out.
As TPC's front man and primary host, I guess I catch a lot of the flack for it and get called a lot of really nasty names that are absolutely childish and inaccurate and inappropriate.
In fact, you know, I was talking about the CNN appearances I've made earlier.
They're one of the few media entities to actually give me a proper introduction.
They introduced me as a radio talk show host instead of a bigot or Neanderthal or whatever these other clowns call me.
But, you know, we've been successful.
Again, thanks to people like you, ladies and gentlemen and AW and everyone else.
We've broken through that glass ceiling and we have built a sizable listening audience.
We have reach and we regularly generate publicity.
And you want to talk about generating publicity?
You wait.
You Google Pat Buchanan and the political cesspool in a day or two and you wait to see the fallout from that interview tonight.
It is going to be a lot of fun.
And that's not something I take for granted because it is hard to be successful in life in anything.
But you, our listeners, have made that possible for us.
And all that endless persecution that we endure is worth it because we are serving you and we're delivering a much needed message to people who wouldn't receive it otherwise.
And we spread that message to folks in our robust listening audience every Saturday night.
And every now and then we're able to do it with great people like Pat Buchanan on the show.
And sometimes, as I said, we're fortunate enough to be able to spread that message to audiences even larger than our own when we get picked up by some of these national newspapers and television shows and whatever.
But no matter the size of our audience, my message always remains consistent.
Ladies and gentlemen, you give me the courage to continue working.
It's been seven years and going.
And folks, it's only getting better and better.
Stay tuned.
We'll be back with more right after this.
Call us tonight at 1-866-986-6397.
And here's the host of the Political Cesspool, James Edwards.
All right, everybody.
Welcome back to the Political Cess Pool Radio Program.
Let's go from Alabama up to Pennsylvania.
I believe we have Frank in Pittsburgh calling in.
Frank, how are you?
Oh, very good.
Thank you for taking my call tonight, James.
I just wanted to commend you on what you said about taking a stand where you live in Memphis.
Far too much.
White people have just absolutely conceded areas, walked away like our major urban areas, not so much in Pittsburgh, but if you look at Buffalo and Detroit and Cleveland, all of them were very good areas at one time, and they've just absolutely, they're unspeakably bad.
And a big part of that has to do with the white masses that just abandoned the areas and went to the suburbs and put up with one-hour commutes into work every day rather than keeping the areas that they're at.
And that statement that you made, you know, about digging in and Taking a stand.
It's something I think all of us should take to heart, and all of us should try to do that.
Last thing I'll say before I get off the phone, I know you're a Southerner, but believe it or not, up here in the North, when you get into rural Ohio, rural Pennsylvania, and even rural New York State, these people out here actually, they have Southern souls when you talk to them.
Their politics and their thinking is really in line with what the old South was all about.
Yeah, you know, I've heard people tell me before, a lot of the divide in America isn't necessarily red state versus blue state, but rural versus metropolitan or cosmopolitan.
And there is some truth to that.
You know, I've met a lot of good copperheads, if you will, which is a northerner, literally a northerner that sympathized with the South.
And so, you know, you're very right, Frank, and obviously I'm talking to one right now, and God bless you, and we appreciate you.
Yeah, last thing, it's too bad the media wasn't a little better back in the days of the Civil War.
I think there were probably more Confederates in the northern states or as many there as there were in the South.
I think, again, this was another, that was a tragic war that should have never happened.
And I think if some of the Union soldiers could have talked to some of the Southern soldiers for a few minutes before going into battle, I think they would have set their arms down and they all would have united on the southern side.
If we could only have a time machine and go back and change just a couple of things, it would all be very different today.
And I think you're right about that.
But again, Frank, thanks for the call and thanks for being a listener.
Okay, and thank you for sending me the David Duke book.
I appreciate it.
And I sent you guys a little something back, too.
You're very welcome.
Thank you again.
Frank from Pittsburgh.
Oh, and by the way, since he brought that up, I'm glad he mentioned that.
If you responded to our most recent fundraising appeal, you know, the political cesspool, we can't get corporate sponsors.
We can't get Coca-Cola and Pepsi and all of these big money advertisers to do business with us because we talk to people like Pat Buchanan and we talk honestly about issues that they don't want to have talked honestly about.
We can't get big commercial sponsors.
We do rely on the support of people like Frank and AW and the rest of the listening audience to keep us afloat.
And there is a substantial amount of overhead associated with running a nationally syndicated talk radio program.
And therefore, we do send out to those on our mailing list a quarterly fundraising appeal.
Four times every year, we send it out.
Our most recent one went out on September 1st.
If you responded to that fundraising appeal and you responded at such a level that qualified you for an incentive, I do want to let you know that your books were shipped last week.
It sometimes takes us a couple of weeks.
We run these quarterly fundraising appeals for a month.
So if it started September 1st, it runs through September 30th.
And then it takes us a couple of days to get everything in stock.
And then my staff addresses them and stuffs them and mails them out.
And you've got to wait for the good old United States Postal Service to deliver them.
Anyway, after a couple of weeks, though, and it takes a couple of weeks to get it together, people start emailing us.
Oh, you know, I contributed.
Are you going to send the book?
Are you going to send the book?
Are you going to send the incentive?
They went out, folks.
I promise you, they went out.
What's today?
I believe they went out on Wednesday.
If not Wednesday, it was Thursday.
I can't remember when we sent them down, but they are on their way to you post-haste.
And if they haven't been delivered yet, depending on where you live, they will be there soon.
Just a note from me to you tonight on the Political Cesspool Radio Program.
Got a few minutes left this hour.
We can take another call, if you will.
1-866-986-News, 1-866-986-News.
We've got Tim in Arkansas on the line.
Tim, thanks for calling in.
How are you doing tonight, my friend?
A regular caller.
Hi, buddy.
What's going on?
I'm hanging in there tonight.
It's a good night tonight in the cesspool.
Well, listen, did you hear Pat Buchanan's interview on Fox News with the judge?
Andrew Napolitano, you know, I posted that very interview on the website, and I did not get a chance to watch it all.
Particularly, what part of the interview are you having?
Well, I was referring to this.
Pat Buchanan, of course, was talking about his book.
He's talking about demographics and things like that and how things were changing.
And Napolitano goes, you know, I'm on your side about everything, you know, but he said, shame on you for being against immigration.
You know, these people do do a lot of jobs that Americans won't do.
You know, you're an Irish immigrant and I'm an Italian immigrant.
You know, you should be for these people.
And it just goes back to show you that these people who are supposed to be conservative, who are supposed to, you know, that's really the largest threat that this country has right now, I think, is illegal immigration because it really threatens.
It threatens, you know, to, I think, really lower the quality of stock that built the country.
Well, Pat, I remember Pat years back, he really nailed it on the head.
He said, you know, America is becoming a flop house for the dregs of the third world.
And this was years back, maybe even before we ever first went on air in 2004.
But I remember him saying that.
I remember him saying flop house.
And I thought, you know what?
That's exactly right.
That's exactly what it's becoming.
And, you know, we can't be the dumping ground for the refuse of humanity.
And if these people that were coming here were contributed members and established members of their own communities and societies, then they wouldn't be leaving.
You know, I wouldn't leave Memphis.
I have a job here.
I actually work.
I wouldn't leave here because I'm established here.
If you're leaving and you're looking for something else, that means that you're obviously not at the top of the caste system, wherever you're coming from.
And in many cases, we are getting some of the worst of the worst.
And some of these are good people.
There's no doubt about that.
There's no slide against them.
But the fact of the matter remains, they are not coming here to assimilate.
The melting pot, if it ever existed, is now certainly at a dull simmer.
And they're not coming here to be Americans.
They're not coming here to embrace our faith and our tradition and our heroes and our culture.
They're coming here and just using us as a source of income.
And they don't care about this country.
They don't care about our history.
And, you know, there's something wrong with that.
You know, if we did that, if we sent, you know.
A lot of people are coming, and many of them have a chip on their shoulder.
Yeah, to say the least.
To say the least.
You know, that's not good.
Another thing, you know, before I get off, and that is, of course, you've got the people on Wall Street, and then you've got the other end of the spectrum, I guess, which is the Tea Party.
You know, it really seems to me that there's so much dissatisfaction.
I think that's the reason that Obama is bringing these truths home for Christmas, is that the summer of discontent, or I guess now the fall of discontent, is really, really out there.
And people are really beginning to see in a big way that, you know, that everybody, everybody, everybody is real unhappy with what's going on.
And irregardless of the fact that they're all kooks, which I don't think they all are out there, I think that there's a lot of dissatisfaction out there.
And I think that they're starting to get, I think it's, you know, it's probably why they went ahead and killed Qaddafi, you know, because they're trying to do anything they can to sort of rescue themselves.
And this isn't just the Democrats, of course.
It's everybody in politics.
I just think that there's a lot of discontent out there.
You know, hopefully, you know, when the time comes, it'll work in our favor.
Well, you know, there is, Tim, and I know we have less than a minute left before the end of this hour.
Folks, one more hour of the political cesspool forthcoming tonight.
There is a lot of discontent out there.
There's a lot of upsettedness and hard feelings, and that's across the board.
And unfortunately, it's not being manifested in any sort of tangible way that's going to benefit us, the founding stock of this country.
I thought for a minute we might have a fighting chance with the Tea Party movement because you had this great phenomenon of implicit whiteness.
You had all of these nominally white conservatives coming together.
And now, what, they're Herman Kane supporters, apparently.
This isn't going to cut it.
Voting Republican once every four years isn't going to cut it.
And this was something I was driving at.
That's true.
But here's the thing.
As things evolve, I think that there will come a time when people, they just can't be fooled anymore.
I mean, the man behind the curtain.
Maybe we'll have to, we're coming up on a break, Tim.
Thanks for the call.
Maybe we will have to suffer more.
How much more are we going to have to pay?
How much more are we going to have to endure before those tribal instincts that Pat Buchanan and I talked about in the first hour reappear in white consciousness?
When's it going to happen?
I don't know.
Will it be too late when it does happen to do anything about it?
We'll all see as life unfolds.
Stay tuned.
The political cesspool continues right after My power was taken sold my new Oh, Jinx.
