Time Text
You're listening to the Liberty News Radio Network, and this is the Political Cesspool.
The Political Cesspool, going across the South and worldwide, as the South's foremost populist conservative radio program.
And here to guide you through the murky waters of the political cesspool is your host, James Edwards.
Yes, indeed.
Ladies and gentlemen, you are listening to the political cesspool.
I am Sam Bushman filling in for James Edwards.
He's where he ought to be.
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, with his daughter and his wife and his son doing family activities.
You might say, good old James Edwards is serving somebody.
Yeah, you're going to have to serve somebody too, whether you like it or not.
You know, if you choose not to have made a choice, you still have made a choice, as they say.
All right, he's in a recital for his daughter, a dancer's son.
And so you got Sam Bushman.
You got the Bomb the Deer.
Filling in.
You may like to gamble.
You might like to think.
You may be the heavyweight champion of the world.
You may be a social life with a long kingdom.
I'm telling you right now, the men are men and the women are women of the James Edwards family.
Beautiful daughter, incredible son, pretty wife.
You know, Debbie Miller, the bomb of deer, you got to serve somebody too, my brother.
Welcome to the political cesspool, sir.
Well, thank you so much, Samuel.
You're one of my favorite people in the world.
God knows I love, I love working with you, Sam.
You know, since day one, you and I have always had an instant chemistry.
Like James Edwards says, you and I, we are attached to the brain.
We think about the same things.
And, you know, what you said about James is true.
I'd like to add something to I've been knowing James since he was a little whippersnapper.
And I told him the other day, I said, you know, James, I never dreamed that you would evolve as far as you have.
You know, I knew him when he was an irresponsible kid.
Been with him a long time.
You know, I was a lot younger, dude, too.
But he's everything that Sam said, he's one of the most responsible fathers I've ever known.
I never dreamed he would be that way.
He's a great, a great husband.
He's just a good guy all the way around.
And he works very hard.
And, you know, I'm throwing some accolades out there too because I love James.
I've been with him forever.
I consider him my son.
I really do.
And Sam, you know, I always tell all my friends it's the spirit of Trump's blood.
You know, a lot of people don't think that, but my home life was nothing.
I mean, zero to talk about.
So I've latched on to friends and the family I made myself.
But yeah, James is a, he's a, he's a great guy.
The only fault that I can think of that James has, he will not answer phone calls.
But now, if he knows it's important, the man will.
He certainly will.
But I'll tell you what, speaking of James.
When his wife calls, he pays attention.
I'm telling you right now, I've watched it.
Well, we got some.
He thinks he's in charge, but we know better, don't we?
Oh, well, you got that right.
The only time I saw him get in trouble with Danny, we were out at a barbecue joint.
And James is tired.
We were eating barbecue.
And he kind of clicked the phone off and she was trying to get him.
But we got back.
There was close to hell to pay because he didn't get Danny no barbecue.
And he didn't answer the phone call.
I tell you, after that, after that time, you know, after she read him his rights, ever since that day, he's been more attentive to that telephone, Mr. Sam.
That's for sure.
Well, no doubt there's a sharing of power that takes a place, and that's worth it.
Men are men and women are women, as the God of the heavens intended, and that's good news.
Now, speaking of serving somebody, and that's kind of why I started out the segment with that tune, we all had the opportunity to serve somebody and go serve our buddy Matt Felak.
I was the servant, you were the servant.
We all went and basically supported another brother taking care of business.
And when you mentioned that blood is thicker than water and, you know, the spirit's greater than you're right about that.
In fact, he had the opportunity to become reborn as a follower of Christ.
It was a neat thing to behold, Eddie.
And I beholded it too.
And hey, me and James went there.
Man, did we have a wonderful time or not?
Now, you know, I might have to rat out on my little boy, Matt.
And Matt gives me far too much praise.
You know, he treats me like I'm some kind of a hero when I'm not.
But I have to rat out on him.
I think he was a little bit apprehensive about my man Sam here being able to get him up out of that water.
And that water was, well, it wasn't over your head, but I think the old boy, I saw a little bit of fear in his eyes, Sam.
And I think you said that you could have picked him up with one arm.
No doubt.
You bet I can.
See, I never had gender questions, sir.
I'm a real man.
I get her done.
You got that right, son.
I tell you what, Sam, speaking of telling the audience about Sam and Kurt, I'm crazy about Kurt.
You know, you have to, I have some other friends like Kurt.
He's very soft-spoken.
And for every word Kurt will say, me and Sam will get in 150.
We're like a machine gun.
But Kurt condenses his words.
That's for sure.
You have to take one of Kurt's words and put it in water.
It's like it's what falls out and turns into 100 words of wisdom.
When he says something, you need to listen to it.
It's like a little leavening the bread for sure.
There you go.
But you know, Sam, I think I told some of our supporters what we had going on.
A lot of our supporters might not know, but Sam and Kurt, Sam and Kurt flew all the way down here from Utah.
They flew into Memphis.
I mean, that's a fur piece.
I even endured the curves at the TSA to support my buddy Matt.
Me and the TSA don't get along too good.
That's why I can't fly.
You know, I've had a little altercation with him before, and I had a little altercation with the U.S. By the way, we're going to get into another altercation as the broadcast unfolds, ladies and gentlemen.
Anyway, so we went to Memphis.
We went with Matt.
We went to the baptism.
Now, Eddie Miller and James Edwards got in the car together and had a roll up to Arkansas.
I guess it was actually in Missouri, West Plains, Missouri.
You guys had a unique event on the way up, right?
We had a great time.
We got this sort out a lot of talk about.
Of course, we talked a lot about the show, but it was just a lot of really, and I'm true.
I'm not exaggerating.
It was a lot of father-son talk.
And we had a marvelous time.
I love Arkansas anyway.
My grandparents are buried in Arkansas.
I have a lot of family, especially in western Arkansas.
I have some of the Delta.
But James talked about he can't get over this place.
We stopped in Hardy, Arkansas.
And I mean, it's very rare for me and James like the same thing restaurant because James has never eaten a vegetable in his whole life.
And he's never eaten a fruit.
I can tell you some funny stories about James putting a cherry in his mouth.
You'd think he had a roast in his mouth when Bill Rowland, Rest of Soul, had him to eat a cherry one time.
But we stopped at a place there in Hardy, and it's like the, I think they only have one red light in Hardy, but it's like a home cooking place.
And that was the most delicious food I've had out anywhere in I don't know how long.
And the service was great.
And the multiple people, you know, there weren't any minorities all in there.
The place was spotless.
It was clean.
I just couldn't say enough about that.
And I'm not getting paid to say this.
It's not a commercial announcement, but if any of our brethren out there, if you're ever going through from up through northern Arkansas, up into southern Missouri, you need to stop in at that little family restaurant there.
It's at the red light.
By the red light in Hardy, Arkansas, you will not be disappointed.
They had fantastic food.
But we had a great, great time there.
You know, another thing that we had, Sam, do you remember the ice cream stop we had in Arkansas coming back?
On the way back from the baptism.
Yes, indeed.
What?
I'll tell you what, that was some mighty good.
Hey, get this.
This is the pool that the Bombardier has.
We went out there, James was Jones, and he was wanting some ice cream mighty bad.
What was it, one o'clock in Laura?
Yeah, problem is the ice cream shop was closed, ladies and gentlemen.
But the Bombardier got open, though.
It ain't closed with the Bombardiers around.
That's all I'm telling you.
All I know is he worked his charms on that lady.
Whoa, man, I had to step aside.
But we all enjoyed the ride, ladies and gentlemen.
This is the political sass pool.
Sam Bushman, Eddie Miller in seconds on your radio.
It's Joyce Riley with the Power Hour.

Extend your life with extendovites.
Extendivite really works.
Here is what people are saying.
Oh, I had a problem with breeding.
When I started to do some walking, I had a problem.
I had a heart attack.
I had three bike bags 10 years ago, and I was in bed almost 24 hours a day in painkillers all over this world.
I started taking this.
I'm down to almost no painkillers at all.
And it helped my circulation 100%.
My medical doctor, and I went to see him, and he could not believe it.
There's no reason I went down that fast.
He could not believe it.
I saw what I was taking.
He said, Both stopped taking it.
I wasn't going over it.
It's unbelievable.
To get your Extend-A-Vite, call 1-877-928-8822 or visit heartdrop.com.

And now, back to tonight's show.
The gentleman,
Sam Bushman, and Eddie the Bombardier Miller filling in for James Edwards.
He's spending family time.
He's at his daughter's asylum.
Exactly where he ought to be.
Ladies and gentlemen, we live this stuff.
We don't just talk about it.
We really live it.
And I'm telling you right now, the bombardier walked into this old gas station, whatever you want to call it, quick part, whatever.
And I'm telling you right now, the ice cream shop in that place was closed.
It was like one in the morning.
And this lady was working there, man.
And I'm telling you, she was yelling, give me shelter, the bombardier.
I just started talking to her before you know it.
I'm just telling you right now, she was ready to open that dude up for the bombardier.
What do you say, Eddie?
You know what?
Not only did she open it up for the bombardier, we all got free ice cream.
That's the kind of mechanism the old bombardier poppo has, folks.
Now, I don't know if the owner's listening, but you can't blame.
You just can't blame the girl.
She couldn't help herself, Eddie.
What she could resist.
I mean, what could she do?
She was totally overpowered.
She said, take all the ice cream you want.
I just can't resist you.
You're so wonderful.
I get to embellish a little bit.
But we got free ice cream.
We certainly did.
Hold on, hold on.
Can I just do this?
That complaint I kind of needed there.
Hey, Sam, before I forget, I forgot one of the most important things I was going to say.
You know, we've had many emails and many, you know, many contacts.
The audience won't know.
When am I going to come back?
Where have I been?
Well, I haven't been in jail, believe it or not.
And I apologize.
You almost went to jail, buddy.
We're going to talk about that.
Very close.
Very close.
I've been out on duty working for free, like Sam mentioned, or James mentioned earlier, the first hour.
I've been out working for free for St. Jude Children Returning Hospital.
And believe it or not, I've totally exceeded my verbal commitment of $5,000.
Now, excuse me, that was my written, my written, I had to come up with $5,000.
I've already exceeded that, thanks to the good donors.
I'm going up to $20,000.
But that's where I've been, people.
I haven't been AWOL for no reason.
It was a good cause.
So I'm glad to be back.
And I appreciate y'all people sending in all the emails.
Now, I'm telling you, the Bombardier could charm some chicks.
Other chicks, though, he couldn't charm.
We'll tell you about that coming up.
Before we do, I just want to talk about this trip, though.
So we went to the baptism.
I was able to, by the grace of God, have the opportunity to baptize Matt Felak into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
And I'm telling you, it was a wonderful blessing.
The spirit was felt by all.
We all enjoyed it.
And it just shows what kind of a family atmosphere we have.
We came down all the way from Utah.
You guys jumped in the car and rolled.
I think it's like a four-hour trip each way.
You did that all in one day.
We had a great time talking about the show and enjoying each other's company and everything.
But it was very important to understand that baptism really kicked off and kind of focused on what we're really all about.
I mentioned before the pause, we live this stuff.
We don't just talk about it.
We live this stuff, Eddie.
Well, you got that right.
And I'm glad you talked about that, the family.
I want to emphasize, we, the political chesspool, Liberty News Radio, me, Sam, Kirk, James, Winston, you know, Keith, we all are a family.
And we don't just talk this.
It's not just a bunch of garbage to us.
We eat, sleep, and breathe it.
That's why me and Sam are here tonight.
And we were a family.
I cannot tell you how much we love Sam and Kirk coming into town, how much they love us.
You know, James's family there, little Izzy.
Oh, Lord, I can't say enough about Little Izzy.
She's five years old.
I'm afraid I'm a bad influence on her.
Me and Izzy got in trouble at the FedEx place the other day for the James is trying to get out of the way.
Yeah, you know what?
It reminds me.
It reminds me of Mr. Edwards in a little house on the prairie where Mr. Edwards teaches little Laura how to spit.
It's kind of like that, you know?
I'm telling you.
Well, me and Little Izzy got in trouble playing a hide-go-seat running like crazy in the FedEx business center.
Finally, we both got called down.
I think I was like four years old, and little Izzy's five, but we had a wonderful time.
James Bowler's brought us family, and me and Sam, Kirk, James, Danny, you know, the little baby boy, Lee Cochran, we had a wonderful time.
It is a family.
Sam, you nailed it.
We're a family.
We're spirits, thicker than blood.
I consider what's, you know, spiritual blood brothers.
And we had a marvelous time going up there.
The people at your church couldn't have been more hospitable, clean.
You know, there wasn't, I guess me and James were the most underdressed in the bunch.
Well, and you know what?
After we got back from the baptism, and then we basically went and the next day ate pizza together, all of us.
Danny and Isabel was there.
Henry was there.
We had a great time.
Anyway, after you missed out on this, Eddie, because you wimped out and went home.
But I'm telling you right now, man, we were hanging out with Lee Cochran, and Lee Cochran busted out karaoke on us.
Get down.
I could never get him to sing with me.
Well, I'm going to tell you right now, I'm going to let y'all hear a little sampling.
How's that?
Now, check it out.
You ready?
Are you sure?
Can you handle it?
Hear that?
I don't know if you can handle Lee Cochrane karaoke.
Well, I'll tell you what.
I've been to the moment.
I mean, he's like a Madonna here going, oh, yeah.
Here we go, boys and girls.
I made it through the wilderness.
I made it through.
Didn't know how lost I was until I found you.
I was beat incomplete.
I've been half.
I was set in blue, but you make me feel.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, you make me feel shiny and new.
Like a virgin.
There you have it, Lee Cochran, ladies and gentlemen.
I just thought I'd let you hear that.
Now, all of them aren't that growl, that low growl.
Some of them, he does kind of more Elvis stuff.
And he does incredible Elvis Presley.
Let me just kind of give you an example here to make the point here.
Let's see if I can fire up this one.
See?
Lee Cochran, man.
I've got it on.
Lord, everybody, I feel my temperature rising.
I am high.
It's burning through my soul.
Anyway, there he is.
All I'm telling you is we went back to the hotel, did a bunch of karaoke.
I was karaokeing.
So was Lee Cochran.
Except you ain't getting me on tape.
I'm a talk show host.
And people tell me when I karaoke, I need to get a day job.
I tell you, I've been in a lot of places with Lee and been in some tight spots, some places that I was hoping we wouldn't there at the time we got away.
But Lee is one of the guys, and I noticed James in the first segment mentioned Lee's car.
And I'm telling you, I have been at that car.
I remember one time, hey man, I rode around in that car multiple times.
I'm telling you, it's a trip.
Lee, the first time I got the car, Lee, we had to go to a dumpster and unload his car.
He had so many packages from McDonald's and Wendy's, et cetera, et cetera, for me to get in there.
I said, Lee, we ought to ride in the dumpster and just leave your car here.
But yeah, Lee, I'm going to tell you what about it.
I'm going to tell you a little bit about Lee.
I was just thinking you just take the roof off, turn that dude upside down, and then flip it right back up, put the top back on, you're ready to go.
That's what we needed.
But I do, and it's a cop magnet.
Cop follow, they follow Lee everywhere he goes.
If you can see his car, like James said, there's not one square inch on there that doesn't have some kind of an anti-government bumper sticker.
That's why I like it.
Or pro-freedom, however you really want to look at it, right?
That's right.
Yeah, pro-freedom.
There you go.
Pro-freedom.
Because really, Lee isn't anti-government, though.
He just wants to be left alone.
Yeah, we're pro-country.
We're pro-Christian, pro-God government.
But I can't say enough about Lee.
I tell you what, Lee tires me out.
I mean, just thinking about what he does.
Every day, Lee is in the city hall, a county commissioner's office, a mayor's office.
He's protesting for something like smart meters and agenda 21.
And Lee has had many altercations with the police, more than me, probably.
He's had the red dot on his chest.
He had the rough treatment from the cops.
But I just can't say enough about him.
Sometimes I don't want to hang around.
People think I'm wild, and I do get kind of out of control sometimes.
But Lee, Lee now, the cops know him.
I mean, they follow him around, man.
Hey, you ever heard that country song called Bubba Hyde?
I don't think I have.
All right.
Well, Lee reminds me of Bubba Hyde.
Kind of comes from Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, right?
I'm going to play that coming out of the next deal.
Lee's like a Bubba Hyde.
I'm just telling you right now.
You have to listen to the words to know what I'm talking about.
We'll do that.
We'll come back.
We're going to drop into the Judge Napolitano stuff here in a second.
But I'm telling you right now, the political cesspool team is all about God, family, and country.
You got that right.
And the proper role of limited government in preserving what we hold most dear.
This is the political cesspool.
Salmon Eddie in seconds.
Protecting your liberties.
You're listening to Liberty News Radio.
Listen, do you hear that sound?
It started low, but it's getting progressively louder into a crescendo, even louder, irresistible, ending in an ear-splitting blast of mass disruption.
That's the sound of America's economic and political systems crashing to the ground.
But we have a plan.
We will be ready to restore political sanity.
We will be ready to answer the call of productive America.
We will restore America's industrial base and put America back to work.
We will shut down political correctness and restore decency and positive media to America.
We will save our Constitution, our traditional way of life, our customs, and religion.
We will restore sound money and crush the debt-based system of monetary slavery.
And we will end America's foreign misadventures.
We are the American Freedom Party, and we have a plan.
Learn more about us at theamericanfreedomparty.us There seems to be a problem here.
I'm channel surfing on the telly, searching for the real news, but blimey.
The American cable networks all seem to be reporting the same news.
That's when I stumbled upon dailyken.com.
Dailyken.com sniffs out the news stories the others overlook.
Dailyken.com doesn't try to be politically correct.
Rather, DailyKen.com works hard to find stories ignored by the mainstream media.
Dailyken.com adds commentary, insights, and sometimes a touch of humor.
Well, there you have it.
Dailyken.com.
No more cable news networks for me.
The Occidental Quarterly fills a unique niche in bringing together scholarly articles on a wide range of topics that are mired in political correctness elsewhere.
It is edited by Professor Kevin McDonald, who's no stranger to listeners at the political cesspool.
There are quite a few reasons for the precarious state of our civilization and our people, but one of the main ones is that we have lost the intellectual and moral high ground to a cultural elite that is hostile to our people and our culture.
Those of us who are politically aware must understand that the elites dominating culture and the political process in the West are intellectually and morally bankrupt.

Just so y'all know, we spent time with a Copperhead for his baptism.
And I know Matt, the Copperhead, was a little bit concerned I might not be able to pull him out of the water, but buddy, I put him under there.
I wasn't really thinking about leaving him under there, I promise.
But I made sure that he was really completely baptized by immersion.
And then, buddy, when I got ready to pull, man, that dude popped right up out of the water now, didn't he, Eddie?
Man, he looked like a missile come out of a submarine coming out of that water.
I think he was ready to come out.
But hey, I can guarantee you, I saw the whole thing.
Mr. Matt was completely submerged.
I'll sign off on that.
Roger that.
Now, by the way, Lee Cochran's quite a bit bigger than Matt, and I bet I can pull Lee out of the water one-handed too.
I'll get him done.
Lee would probably be as scared as Matt.
But yeah, Matt, you know what?
Yeah, but do you question if I can pull Lee out of the water?
No, I have no question whatsoever.
I guarantee you.
All right.
Now, we digress though.
I want to just give a shout out and a tribute to Lee Cochran because let me tell you something about Lee.
Lee's the kind of guy where if you don't know him, you have no idea of his talents.
But when you get to know him, you realize the guy's incredibly talented.
Number one, he spends time standing for the proper role of government everywhere.
He does that by day, just as a peaceful, you know, get it done guy.
At night, the guy goes off on karaoke.
But one of the things about Lee that I really want to triple down on is this.
He is so kind.
And if you call Lee and you need him, buddy, Lee will deliver.
That's just the kind of guy he is.
Now, this reminds me of, you know, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
Well, the country folks call it Bubba Hyde.
I want you to hear this song and I want you to think about Lee Cochran.
I want you to listen to the words really quick.
And it'll kind of make sense.
Here we go now.
Lee Cochran.
Bubba, hi, that's what I'm saying.
Listen to the words now, y'all.
Here we go.
Bar, he works down at the AMP.
Drives a baby blue AMC.
Ain't missed a day of work in 13 years.
He's a fire department farm, too.
He's got a yard that's always just been low.
Collected stamps since he was 10 years old.
You've never seen a more regular guy.
When the sun goes down on Friday night, slaps on his hot karate after shade.
Puts on his elbows, jacket customers.
Yes, sir, he gets a bad thing.
He's in his bad feathers.
Bies up the super spot mountain.
He burns the rubber cross the county line.
A honky donkey.
You ought to see a metaphor in the bubble.
There you have it, ladies and gentlemen.
Now, I realize the details aren't exactly accurate, but I'm telling you right now, he's an incredibly talented gentleman, and he really puts his money where his mouth is when it comes to being a true friend and when it comes to standing up for what matters in life, Eddie.
You know something else?
A lot of people, well, some people are kind of intimidated because Lee's a big guy.
He really is.
But, you know, he's a gentleman's gentleman.
Very soft-spoken, mannerly.
And sometimes people mistake that as weakness and they think him, you know, walk over Lee.
That's a bad mistake.
And I can tell you flat out, I've never known lonely Lee.
I've never known him to back down when there's principles involved and the ones you talked about, limited government.
We know how his political beliefs were in line with ours.
And he's never backed down.
He doesn't back down in front of the police.
I mean, Lee is there to the bitter end.
You know, he really is.
I wish I could do as much activist work as Lee does.
But he's just tireless.
You know, he wears me out.
I've been downtown with him before.
You stay all day long.
He wants to go do protests and stuff.
I just can't hang, man.
It's like trying to hang with you, Samuel, and current on these rides and stuff, man.
I mean, y'all, speaking of somebody tireless, Sam is tireless.
We have to go in shifts to get up to Sam, man.
But the bombardier runs marathons, ladies and gentlemen, for St. Jude.
And that got him in trouble with the cops, man.
I'm going to tell you about that coming up as the broadcast unfolds.
But for now, there's a man who's pretty notorious himself for standing up.
He's a bold gentleman.
He's articulate.
He's a constitutional attorney.
He's a well-known TV commentator and more.
He used to be a judge, right?
I think that's right.
Anyway, his name is Judge Napolitano.
Andrew Napolitano, to be exact.
Now, he gave a five-minute speech that we think is the cause he got fired from Fox News.
Now, Fox says we report, you decide.
Well, when he gave this report, they decided he was gone.
Just saying.
All right.
So we're going to hear this.
Then we're going to bust out and talk about it.
Sam Bushman, Eddie Miller, filling in for James Edwards.
Here is Judge Andrew Napolitano.
All right.
Now, listen to this.
I'm telling you, I don't care what side of the aisle you're from, what you think.
You got to agree with the judge on this one, baby.
Listen to me.
Do you work for us or do we work for the government?
Tonight, what if the Constitution no longer applied?
What if the whole purpose of the Constitution was to limit the government?
What if Congress's enumerated powers in the Constitution no longer limited Congress, but were actually used as a justification to extend Congress's authority over every realm of human life?
What if the president, meant to be an equal to Congress, has instead become a democratically elected term-limited monarch?
What if the president assumed that everything he did was legal just because he's the president?
What if he could interrupt your regularly scheduled radio and TV programming for a special message from him?
What if he could declare war on his own?
What if he could read your emails and your texts without a search warrant?
What if he could kill you without warning?
What if Supreme Court justices no longer looked to the Constitution to determine the constitutionality of a law, but rather simply to what justices who preceded them thought about it?
What if the rights and principles guaranteed in the Constitution have been so distorted in the past 200 years as to be unrecognizable by the founders?
What if the 50 states were no longer sovereign entities, equals to each other and parents of the federal government they voluntarily constituted?
What if the states were mere provinces of a totally nationalized and fully centralized government?
What if the Constitution was amended stealthily, not by constitutional amendments duly ratified by the states, but by the constant and persistent expansion of the federal government's role in our lives?
What if the federal government decided if its own powers were proper and constitutional?
What if the Constitution were no longer the supreme law of the land?
What if you needed a license from the government to speak, to assemble, or to protest against the government?
What if the government didn't like what you planned to say and so it didn't give you the license?
What if the right to keep and bear arms only applied to the government?
What if posse comitatas, the federal law that prohibits our military from occupying our streets, were no longer in effect?
What if the government considered the military an adequate dispenser of domestic law enforcement?
What if cops looked and acted like troops and you couldn't distinguish the military from the police?
What if you were not secure in your person, in your papers, and in your property?
What if federal agents could write their own search warrants in defiance of the Constitution?
What if the government could decide when you were and were not entitled to a jury trial?
What if the government could take your property whenever it wanted?
What if the government could continue prosecuting you until it got the verdict it wanted?
What if the government could force you to testify against yourself simply by labeling you a domestic terrorist?
What if the government could torture you until you said what the government wanted to hear?
What if people running for president actually supported torture?
What if the government tortured your children to get to you?
What if government judges and government lawyers intimidated juries into convicting the innocent?
What if the government could send you to your death and your innocence meant nothing so long as the government's procedures were followed?
What if America's prison population, the largest in the world, was a cruel and unusual way for a country to be free?
What if half the prison population never harmed anyone but themselves?
What if the people had no rights except those the government chose to let them have?
What if the states had no rights except to do as the federal government commanded?
What if our elected officials didn't really live among us, but instead all had their hearts and homes in Washington, D.C.?
What if the government could strip you of your rights because of where your mother was when you were born?
What if the income tax was unconstitutional?
What if the states were convinced to give up their representation in Congress?
What if the government tried to ban you from using a substance in your body that is older than the government itself?
What if voting didn't mean anything anymore because both political parties stand for big government?
What if the government could write any law, regulate any behavior, and tax any event, the Constitution be damned?
What if the government was the reason we don't have a Constitution anymore?
What if you could love your country but hate what the government has done to it?
What if sometimes to love your country, you had to alter or abolish the government?
What if Jefferson was right?
What if that government is best which governs least?
What if I'm right?
What if the government is wrong?
What if it is dangerous to be right when the government is wrong?
What if it is better to perish fighting for freedom than to live as a slave?
What if freedom's greatest hour of danger is now?
And I would say telling the truth, oftentimes it's been said has become a revolutionary act.
Exactly what Napolitano did, ladies and gentlemen.
And what if was reality, huh?
Well, I submit that it is.
The bombardier goes off in seconds, ladies and gentlemen.
He's hovering right above the target, and in seconds, he's going to let her rip.
Hang tight.

Ladies and gentlemen, Sam Bushman and Eddie Miller filling in for James Edwards.
I'm telling you, when I jumped out of a plane one time, we were going up, of the plane, and people are saying, hey, Sam, you really going to jump?
Are you going to check it out?
And I'm like, come on, I'm going to do it.
They're like, all right, let me just teach you a phrase.
Normally in the business, they say don't break a leg, right?
When you go out on stage.
In this case, when you jump out of an airplane, they usually say, blue skies, black Beth.
All right, we're right over the target, ladies and gentlemen.
My job's to open the doors to Pomedier.
Don't break a leg, sir.
Well, I tell you what, I'm ready to rock and roll on this one.
I would like to say about Judge Napolitano.
Sam, I believe that's probably the greatest YouTube clip I've ever heard, the greatest speech, and if nothing else, because he condensed so much into a five-minute space.
You know, we were talking about Kurt earlier, how he condensed a speech.
The judge beats anybody ever seen that.
But I had a little run-in a couple of weeks ago with some of the stuff that the judge was talking about, and it has to do with how our rights have been eroded.
As we talked about, I don't think anybody on the radio would be surprised to know that I'm a St. Jude hero here in Memphis, and it's my lifeblood.
It's my passion.
I spend every day off trying to fundraise until I can get my pledge.
Well, about two weeks ago, two weekends ago.
Wait a minute.
Until you get your pledge, what you usually do is up your pledge, sir.
That's right.
I upped it, Sam.
It's up by verbal pledge.
I'm going for $20,000.
I've already made the $5,000.
I exceeded that thanks to people like Mr. Roden and other donors for the Cesspool and other donors on the street.
But yeah, I've already exceeded my, what I had signed for $5,000.
I had to get at least $5,000.
I've already got that.
And now I'm going for like a verbal pledge on a dare.
I'm going for $20,000.
That's what I'm going for.
I think I might have had a chance to get it.
But Sam, I'm having to fight tooth and nail the establishment that just, we have so many people just hate the world.
They just hate anything you try to do.
I hit that with Napolitano was talking about about two weeks ago.
We have this big festival here in Memphis called the Italian Festival.
It goes over three days, Thursday, Friday, Saturday.
And I was really counting on that to try to push me over the edge, get me over the top, so to speak, my fundraising.
Counted on it for a couple of months.
Well, I'm down there on a public sidewalk that Eddie Baba dear Biller, James Edwards, being Memphians and citizens of Shelby County, citizens of the state of Tennessee, citizens of the United States of America, pay taxes to build the public sidewalks, the public streets down here.
Well, I'm out there fundraising, and the Italian Festival had roped, they had fenced off the area that Hay had rented.
Believe it or not, I'm going to get to the point.
They had fenced the place off.
I was not in their enclosure.
I was not on the property that they had leased for the three days.
Well, two or three guys came out there.
They were pseudo mannery at first.
They were telling me they had leased the place and they were trying to do their big fundraiser.
And they would appreciate it.
They would certainly appreciate it if I just moved on out of the way.
Now, these are rent-a-cops at this point, right?
Rena cops in a couple of managers in there with plain clothes.
They tell me, I said, well, you know, with all due respect, folks, me being, you know, doing a favor for you and doing something that would make you feel good, that's not what I'm out here for.
I'm not trying to be mean, but I could care less about doing a favor for you.
I'm out here trying to help children that are dying with cancer in St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
I'm out here trying to get money to go to find a cure for other diseases in the future.
Well, meanwhile, a couple of more rent-a-cops come out there.
And it starts to get hot.
We have this young guy, about 25, 28 years old.
He's about 330.
I know about how much they weigh because my grandson is a hulking football player, weightlifter.
He can bench press, you would not believe how much he can bench press.
He weighed about 330.
And the guy was, he was telling me, he gets up and whispers in my ear with all his foul language and tell me all these horrible things he's going to do to me.
And while I was about, I couldn't help but laugh.
I said, well, you know, I don't think your mother would be proud of you if she hears the language you're using.
And I proceeded to tell the man, the young man, I said, you know, I don't really doubt that you'll probably do what you say, but I'm here to tell you, fella, it's going to be mighty expensive.
The price tag is going to be much higher than you want to pay.
For instance, I don't know if you know it, I'm a registered nurse, and I've seen people try to breathe with a crushed trachea.
And, you know, it's almost impossible to breathe with crushed trachea.
And, you know, also, you know, have you ever tried to, have you ever tried to concentrate on what you're thinking when somebody's got their index finger through your eye all the way to the brain?
I mean, it's really uncomfortable, dude.
And plus, I'm going to let you get the first whatever you're going to do because we've got a thousand witnesses here, and you're going to be the aggressor.
Papa Miller, I'm not going to be the aggressor.
I'm going to defend myself because the minute you raise a hand against me, you're going to be committing the crime of assault.
And people go to jail for that.
And about that time, Sam has heard getting hotter and hotter.
He gets in my face, you know, and I tell him to get out of my face.
By that time, I saw a Memphis cop pull up about 40 or 50 yards away into a service station.
He had no clue what was going on.
So I said, hold that thought, gents.
I've got to go see a man about this.
So I went and I motioned for the cop in his air conditioning car.
It was hot that day to roll the window down.
He was a cop, a corporal.
I told him the situation.
I said, now, can I, do I or do not, do I not have the rights to stand on a public sidewalk and solicit money for St. Jude Children Reese's Hospital?
By the way, I had my St. Jude Children's Research Uniform owned.
I had my credentials from St. Jude, my cards, my letter from St. Jude.
He said, of course you can.
He said, I can't run you off.
They can't run you off.
I said, and I said, well, would you mind going down and explaining that to these odds?
I don't think I call them when I want to.
Would you mind going down there and explaining that to the morons down there?
The term uses goons.
There you go.
There you go.
You goons.
He said, sure.
So he clicked his light on.
He goes down there.
He gets that.
I didn't even ask him what's his story.
Well, they immediately got a lot nicer.
And, you know, he told them, they told him, well, this guy's interfering with us.
You know, he's interfering with our fundraiser.
By the way, this fundraising park's probably parked probably about 10 acres, something like that.
So, you know, me, one person out there, going to interfere with that.
Well, anyway, the policeman said, well, you know, sir, you can't run him off.
You don't have the public sidewalk leased.
And I can't run him off.
There's no law.
He's not breaking a law.
So I thought it was over.
And I was kind of crawling a little bit, you know, kind of talking a little trash a little bit and telling the goons.
Why don't you speak up now?
And specifically, the young, huge goon, why don't you tell the officer here all the nice things you're going to do for me?
And he didn't want to speak that.
He didn't want to talk to me.
I said, well, the cat got your tongue.
You talked to me 10 minutes ago in my face.
And you were saying things that I would want anybody.
I would want Satan's mother to hear.
Why don't you say some of that now, hoss?
Well, about that time, the lieutenant comes up with another cop.
I mean, it gets out of hand.
The lieutenant comes up, asks what's going on.
I guess somebody else called the cops, you know.
Well, the lieutenant goes over the situation.
He told the people, yeah, yes, Mr. Miller's got a right to be here.
He's not breaking any law.
And the lieutenant says, sir, why do you have to stand right here?
I said, for one thing, I said, well, first of all, now let me get this straight.
Is the corporal right?
Am I within my rights as a citizen of the state of Tennessee, citizen of the state of the citizen of the city of Memphis, Shelby County, United States?
He said, you're breaking no law.
You have a perfect right to be here.
That's all I need to know.
He said, well, could you just move down a little ways?
I said, yeah, I could, but I'm not.
I said, I'm standing on principle here.
I'm not going to be a runoff.
I'm not going to lay down.
This has become a principle here.
I'm going to defend the Constitution of the United States.
I'm going to defend my rights of a citizen.
I have absolutely zero interest in doing a favor for anybody out here if it's going to sacrifice, you know, the Constitution.
Well, then...
And, hold on.
And the fundraising for little children in St. Jude's hospital.
That's right.
That's right.
One guy says, well, what do you think St. Jude would think if you were out here making all this ruckus?
I said, they would be mighty proud of me because I said, you know, not only, we're not talking about just St. Jude here.
We're talking about a fundamental law.
Or do we have a society of law and order based on the Bible, based on the Constitution, or do we have a law built on man?
We're also talking about, though, you know what, ladies and gentlemen, who made the ruckus?
Let's just ask that.
Eddie was peacefully talking to people politely about, hey, you know what?
Here's what I'm doing.
I run for St. Jude.
You know, would you donate to my efforts?
The more I run, will you help me with this?
I don't get a penny of it.
Okay, Eddie's not getting rich here doing anything for himself.
He's doing, okay, who caused the ruckus?
And the answer is until those thugs goons came.
There wasn't a ruckus.
They certainly did.
And Sam, I lost it.
And I hate to say it, but then another car comes out, plain clothes.
This big goon gets out in the suit, and the black lady, she had a uniform.
I could never see her rank.
Well, they told me, would I just step away because it got really hot?
So I stepped away about five yards to sort of think out.
Then they come to me and tell me, well, Mr. Miller, you're just going to move.
I said, hold up a minute.
The corporal has already agreed with me.
The lieutenants already agree with me.
He said, I'm not breaking any law.
He said, could you show me the law?
I said, I've not to see a law yet.
Just show me the law.
If you can show me the law, then I'm breaking, I'll move, but I'm not moving until you show me the law.
Well, the guy in the suit says something to the effect, are you going to do this?
Are you going to insist on doing this the hard way?
I said, well, define the hard way.
What's the hard way?
He said, well, the hard way, they have to take you downtown.
And I said, I said, well, what for, pray tell?
He said, well, we can arrest you right now because you're obstructing the sidewalk.
So me being the hardcore I am, I took one step to the side off the sidewalk.
I got on the green, on a little green medium there.
I said, there, bingo.
I'm not on the sidewalk anymore.
Well, that made them really, really irate.
And by that time, Sam, I was so mad, my eyes were hurt.
My eyes hurt all the next day.
I was so mad.
And it got totally out of hand.
But here's what it was in a nutshell.
And I asked them, I said, they told me that I'm not only going to have to leave that spot.
I'm going to have to vacate the entire area around there.
Hold on, ladies and gentlemen, we're out of time this hour.
The Bombardier's letting her rip.
We'll come back next hour.
We'll recap, tell you the rest of the story, and then we'll talk to you about Jade Helm 15 and other things going on in America, ladies and gentlemen.
I'm telling you right now, is the judge right?
What if just became reality?
That's what we're talking about on the political cesspool.
