In June. Welcome back in good morning to you Tom -- here on AMCC BW RKO joined by IB Nelson reminded me. And today for the vacation -- is tomorrow and then. Win then happens somewhere else and that's right you know what you're -- you just.

You -- get the feeling a Memorial Day which is the psychological beginning of summer this is the meteorological beginning of some. That somehow Summers it's all in front of -- so much time -- July 4 seems like it's window here. And then Labor Day is here and you wonder where we're not we're all well and went -- and and that will actually begin psychologically. Faris as we noticed what the days -- going to begin to -- get usually sure incrementally. But by the end of July you start to notice and you say I mean I can remember what I used to play a lot of softball. So you work and then you can you try to get get home in debt. He might. Playing under the lights is different thing but if you're playing just regular soft all six of us thought I click on sky you can you have trouble following that mullet you know there is -- and -- and semi pro league the Boston partly human eyes started minutes. The games are all at 6 o'clock and that is why show who sees in the regular season would end at the end of July in the playoffs would begin because. It was getting dark and you couldn't do not get more than five innings and now not lights all over than in the fields and it makes it really funny girl I feel well you remember that.

or hot hot Columbus park now locally are and I party girl the day ago hobby Nelson great great great contributed to the athletic scene here blogs are hot Paula. I'm not sure we have to worry about that we do just great feature win gyms and by the way we're broadcasting from the new balance of world headquarters building no sector remind people that. We have -- is the feature would we -- we put together which we take the best. Of the world wide web and bring it to you cooks let's fire it up.

Cynthia -- a liberal columnists from Atlanta. She has an idea on who is really to blame for this hideous oil spilled down on the golf let's listen to Cynthia Tucker.

And what are the differences between the fifties when sputnik was function now that was a battle against communism. It's always much easier to rally Americans against an external threat. An external enemy in this case the enemy is upon us Americans are addicted to petroleum we using way too much of boil. So with so little harder for the president to turn around. And call Americans to sacrifice here remember what happened to only Carter when he did that may -- I happen to think Jimmy Carter was why you you're you're in Georgia -- Well let me have done things that are in wind on the things that Carter call for then we may not be looking at this huge oil spill now.

Wall. Any number of non sequitur is their rowdy and Tehran and these Cynthia Tucker I military lawyers started -- not -- First Delaware let's go to our our very first -- not just Americans who are who are rally by the threat from the outside and when used -- they're facing annihilation. You do get you do get somewhat vintage I have folk I would like I -- Cynthia Tucker uses any petroleum aware that she's just lecturing the rest of us. That the fact is. That we do have a whole lot of dependence on on fossil fuel -- that's got nothing to do with whether or not. The video there was a problem with you oil spill or how we should too. Pick up on the oil. This -- exposure could make the argument. Maybe we wouldn't have to -- 5000 feet down. If you're okay to drill in -- and long wear these to the oil is not just far down and I wonder Cynthia Tucker. Would be in favor of developing nuclear power. Sure you don't have to drill -- in the president that she referenced so fondly was a nuclear engineer was he not trained in nuclear power nuclear engineering Jimmy got a former president to how to cut the best president but it. You know at least on paper. Again has to be reasonably bright guy goes to Annapolis and -- in majors in. Nuclear things well again -- those who aren't had by the way to give -- our current -- was a terrible President -- Iran hostage crisis came during his -- his injured regime that. And he was only was a one term president -- lost to Reagan preelection but I will say this when Three Mile Island hit. Which was the problem with a nuclear power plant and Jimmy Carter was there he was there he put on the -- he was walking through the plan. He demonstrated. They -- an involvement. And a willingness to go in and be part of it in a way. That communicated. Connection very different from the way of Barack Obama has has has gone through this with this oil spill.

By the way we -- Cynthia talking yet without making the point she said there's a competitor commentary was if we had done things that president kind of suggest in my mind and remember we tell me. That we've put. Tens of billions probably amount to hundreds of billions into a Department of Energy which he proposed which was created. To investigate and explore the feasibility of watched. Alternative. Alternatives to the fossil based economy that not only we have. But the entire world benefits from -- he is why we're all addicted to far to work to fossil fuel because of remains the cheapest. Reform. Energy.

I wonder Cynthia Tucker would be in favor of I know that its its fossil but whether she'd be in favor of developing all our coal resources. And our natural gas resources. Which gets us away from dependence on foreign. Fossil fuel show absolutely look at the reality is that it's all well and good to talk about things in the future we are simply not going get enough energy. From wind and geothermal and solar. We can increase the commitments we can try but we are still gonna have a large dependence on fossil fuel for the foreseeable future.

Say amen to that let's go to senator Jon Kyl these at a town hall meeting in this clip listen to him describe why president Barack Obama. Is it ignoring completely ignoring. The immigration problems of the United States.

The president. People are just tools like -- there -- people. We furor. Thank you all. Won't have you received for contributions. Worse. They -- feature war.

Yeah oh yeah. You know this and entrusting this a fascinating issue very controversial very heated you and I were talking about some of the poll numbers that are coming back. The president so I that the administration's decision to challenge. The Arizona law. But -- Ivey to my mind on this immigration things we can never solve it we never will solve it. I'm too you secure. The border and no one people and I say that you say that era in immediately deemed a racist. Xena phobic EM or hate people here hate people of different I port and you'll lose your -- that's -- you know ya -- we know we know the diatribe we know the predictable commentary around this. -- is that number. One. Issue and by the way for the John McCain's maybe the John Kyle's and others to Lindsey Graham's on the Republican side of the aisle. Who have been involved in so called comprehensive immigration reform. They would be I think they would remain as leaders on saying okay we have to have a worker. -- visa program we have they have they we have to have a bunch of different things to work to reflect the realities of students who come here and businesspeople and everybody else but that porous border. That's porous southern border what is the beginning in the end of the problem that's right.

And there there look they're two separate issues one is how do you stop the illegal immigration from getting worse from continuing. And the other is forty do with the illegal immigrants that are in. What I find interesting rather remarkable. About Kyle's comment. Is that. Obama was overt in saying we're not going to secure the border because we're gonna use it. As a hostage against getting comprehensive reform now what's interesting about that took part from the candor and I -- not heard. The White House. Issue a statement saying -- no I didn't say that they'll strike got -- while while this is hearsay from Kyle so far there's been no response. But would what is also interesting is. The law of the land now. Requires the federal government to secure the border action that's -- responsibility it doesn't say you can choose to enforce the law when you get around to -- or if you get other hotel you realize that the out now which are -- are also another interesting aspect is. You mentioned that the federal government is getting ready to pursue. Hours don't know over its new immigration law Hillary Clinton blurted out in Ecuador. For now it turns out to be true. What is. What is going to be interesting to see as it develops. Is that most people are opposed to the federal government doing that. But notice also what's going on here the reason they're showing not because we think the immigration -- bad but because. They think the federal government should have jurisdiction. Over immigration it's -- power think. They don't want. This stage in this case Arizona. Encroaching on their territory crew noticed the mentality here of people who have been aggregating more power to themselves they take over General Motors. They want to take over they want to take over the energy industry you forty taken over healthcare and now they wanna make sure that nobody but nobody. Has a sane immigration except for us in Washington get a big guys in the -- and Arizona was very very modest really in their approach to this legislation it is a mirror image a little long standing. Federal law so he's -- on the Dutch interests you.

They're not disagreeing with what should they just don't like Arizona doing -- there there are approaching our. It's Howard hits a Stalinist mentality. It centralization. Of authority it. Power that's what these people function on -- what they thrive on and she knew the manifest to the life of the politics of immigration. The you know the Democrats seem to have concluded many Democrats seem to have concluded that it's advantageous to them. Again I found that head scratching. Because I think poll after poll after poll shows that the American people well are frustrated. And fed up talk when you -- polls Rasmussen Friday June 18 2010 that's pretty recent. 56%. Of US voters opposed. The challenge. All of the Justice Department that the justice -- is going to engage in of the Arizona immigration law 56%. Oppose. 26%. Support before we move on more than 200 topic the final word on the issue also recall that -- Eric hold -- no Janet Napolitano in testimony. Hadn't read head even read the law -- all of which they were being so critical -- and I got -- terror plot a statute Lars if at least we would have. Read that statute a couple of ads and thought about it holder said he looked at it here he would play instead it was on the that is what you all you have to exchange commission meets whose ten pages long -- not include an ambulance. That's a lot going to be a while Erika Harris can you imagine how how how thoroughly usery do the 2000 hours -- is somehow not. Concept spigot that helped build senator Ben Nelson made some news with three got to the health get police back in the news is well listen to this senator Ben Nelson. Commenting on whether the -- president Barack Obama can take money from. British Petroleum let's.

Those winds and the DP escrow accounts and this President Obama your mind have the constitutional authority to to have BP surrendered the stockholders money. Without. Due process and love --

Well I don't know that he does have that put on the other hand there's a moral obligation I think it was pointed out. And apparently VP has accepted. That that opportunity to put this money aside. Two not to opportunity compensation. There's remediation. And the security did that ever present so. Would probably have to have -- test -- whether -- not -- authority certainly had some moral authority that.

What a classic dodge what a class dot IL -- and the lonely first to put in immediate disclaimer no relation I think hot hot hot hot. Either by -- I I hadn't even if lot of that I've it'd be but nobody whatever various charities you've got to clear they like Abby Nelson would have I was used Alexander's -- Iowa I'm not sure about you should see some of the people and the only about -- But -- blew my blood nor politics done DC had noted they were senator finger Finneran. You'd be putting Orioles are no that's never noticed he should -- through little Nolte has the legal obligation translation no we doesn't -- legal obligation. Forcing the legal authority. And I don't care what your moral authority is. You don't have a legal authority you can't behave like a follow and we're gonna this isn't a banana republic gonna talk about congressman Joe Bob Wright yeah comments industry guide curiously enough not kerosene and apart again I think -- and I think a light on about. 98 -- to -- as I know I'm sorry I'm Hydro and improve all absolutely without -- Senator Ben Nelson. Let's do well -- let's finish it up we have a call 911. Big down -- North Carolina I think you'll be intrigued by this one go ahead Cox.

Labeling him in on one line I'll.

The water out here in any trouble. Nobody thought they can feel very good movie.

I'm Paul oh my god did not have been cell phone and I -- any trouble if you're not who not.

out here. And drove home. We have our god -- and kill bit from the --

Not hiding stuff but I think -- I think that guy in North Carolina folks fact that they give -- spent a lot of time and still be there was maybe that was Tony your words of god -- I hit -- Well let -- know we got to put that has -- to another disclaimer out and that is we didn't know what the web gem was. We heard -- folks -- but -- really did really they wouldn't tell us what what it was like care and use -- memoir what -- wanted to keep us in the I tell -- world and a swallow on words. When when does the big forward its challenger up next to him whatever his name it's I Canada's. Yemen has gone I suspect if Obama is like I'd get a good morning.

That for all intents and purposes says Barack Obama was guilty of thuggish. Behavior and I and that they and their cup -- aspects to -- that's one -- the other -- the other the other aspect because. That he made it sound like viewers sympathize. With the apologizing for BP. You've gotta you -- we'll talk about down with you when we come back in a moment on AM six -- WRKO. --
