As you know a Mitt Romney. Is over in Britain today and the beat those very exciting Olympic Games begin tomorrow get some of the women's. Some of the extremely exciting women's soccer games and they've I don't know how we manage to avoid having missed some of the broadcast on the Bjork -- but we have thank goodness. But the read the of the main part of the Olympics starts tomorrow and you know they -- they're packing. The Obama people or at when they're not making you know the daily Adam Obama's saying I didn't say you didn't build I didn't say. I what are you -- believe me or your lie any years. When he's not talking when they're not talking about the you know how we didn't say what he did say now they're starting going after him on the Olympics you know -- odd week. Archie is he he wants its act now he takes money for the Olympics. Well colonel David Hunt the president of our nation is was a was consult on the security consultant. To the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City in 2002 so he saw. He saw Mitt Romney up close and personal win when Mitt Romney it was a it was. Trying to was salvage those games and it was a it was a complete fiasco colonel played here just a minute we we're trying to get Monica phone we're -- Obviously the -- one of those guys they wrote about in the Wall Street Journal yesterday who had two phones. -- tomorrow land line that's okay that's got see if that works better. Okay I'll I'll region this or our regional little bit more about the sister soldier moment for Obama defend chick -- And again I mean this is I mean it's it's an interest in peace it's a it's it's entertaining but it's it's never gonna happen on -- million years. Obama could really use -- sister soldier moment of his own -- memorable win you know -- sister soldier got up there's some black reports that. Why are blacks killing blacks let's have a week where blacks kill whites. And yet you know Bill Clinton to ski mountain you know in South Park and said you know we can't have this kind of stuff and you know all of a sudden I mean he put people that when he was governor of Arkansas but people still you know Liberal Democrats the soft on crime itself -- But he he kind of put a lot of those fears to rest. When he had it when he attacked sister soldier. Politicians threatening to shut down a business based on the personal beliefs of its of its owner uses is an un American slap in the face to religious freedom especially when the majority of the country agrees with cap on same sex marriage. If Obama wants to reassure moderate voters. Coming out with a strong but calculated defense of the -- restaurants right to do businesses no -- let's list the ways this would be good for Obama. This is the weekly standard in audio is going to be suspicious of some. You know are right wing magazine -- -- right wing magazine he was going to be suspicious when they're trying to help the other side but that -- -- the -- points. He reassures socially conservative blue collar bitter clinger Democrats that he's not afraid to take on cultural -- And defend those were being pilloried for hearing to their cultural religious traditions. It would -- some of the criticism he's been getting for Catholics and evangelicals were hopping mad -- Obama's birth control abortion mandates. He can defend -- without making his sudden same sex marriage flip flops seem even more disingenuous. Yes -- is. You don't have to agree with -- always -- to abuse she could speak out against them and refused to patronize restaurants. But it's not right the penalized them legally for their beliefs. By coming out and support of chick filet Obama could gently criticized Rahm Emmanuel on the Chicago. Alderman for persecuting chick filet. That way he can distance himself from the sleazy Chicago machine politics of his early career that many people still associate himself. Obama's got a golden campaign opportunity here. The question is whether or not Obama is too dependent on gay campaign Butler like that Warren like that Warren kingpin. Gay porn king pin that he was saluting the other night and for a left interest groups to stand up for chick polite. I think he's too dependent on gay campaign butlers and for a transcript myself I don't think it's gonna happen. Okay 1877469432218774694322. Colonel David Hunt is with us now on he's colonel you were you or what Mitt Romney and now you talk back and not 2002 were you not. Yeah I I have it from 48 GM might just stop working out over here in Portland I felt and it appears -- well thanks yeah I would. I would helping the government. -- -- Ogden and the FBI. I was there almost -- -- here and how I was there before Romney came in here and while Olympic -- What what upset me so much similar to that Hillary Clinton and then. -- -- -- -- -- Yet the era of the underdog. That this is that there is not that line. With Democrats about it or speak -- the Olympics is safe something economically which is nothing to do. The Olympics in 2002. Where they they see people they're sitting. Haven't caught lying in the Olympics. It was at this and a tall -- to -- abroad and governor Romney. Or cooperate. Is he was unblemished reputation. And yet proven ability to -- I think what is the adequately. And in every case. -- it K okay what he turned it around. I've been involved it was -- in the US and in -- Oversees about what could have set with Iran and these are reasonable and why. Why it cannot partner in the war is one thing but now the Democrats or anybody come you'd hear anything. It was it was it -- historically. Well what event. That started out in Fort Campbell you remember -- I think that -- fine when you look at. You get opposite he was how. All the venues he was involved in every aspect. It was leadership and management it was kind it was felt we had a -- I would get everybody to please everybody. Like you know that -- like the president wanted this spot where I want to Galarraga got there it Pellicano the club and where were -- to I was there. 18774694322. If you wanna talk to war colonel hunt or just talk about the campaign. Yeah you know the thing is -- the and other stories about his. About the way he's acted in crisis situations your number one yes one other there was somebody who worked for Bain Capital their daughter disappeared in New York City. And he just he just brought everybody in on the weekend and and he had in he got a big map of the city amid that Borough of Manhattan. Any divided up into grids. Any assigned everybody at Bain Capital to handle one of those grids and go door to door to try to find disk yet and they and they found. If you but it wouldn't do when your -- the governor. -- and -- like what what exit and a few years it was it was not just it was it was a feeling of competency. And why it's. In everything he touched -- I can't I can't this thing we're failing as hot spot. Security was less critical because it was right after 9/11 and the department all of security and Brando and what they -- -- -- up at number. Yet there was no argument about who was going to be in the union and who wasn't going to be in the union right. But that they would do it they'd like the FBI popularly couldn't carry that -- on mr. on site that they weren't starting with what -- make common sense. Right that they can. And -- the plate and -- an end and everybody. Many -- what typical thing to do to primadonna athletes country. You know like Tanzania. It got to want an -- aptly. I'll. Have to play -- play politics at all and anyway it was very very very well on. That they that's -- -- -- and it. Was. Well the way she course we conducted the one that he brought it would've. Stopped the -- he ran means other crises that would come up. Is a great story. At least you know why would there but he huge huge traffic to -- spot react picture. It was tactical I -- it opted. But got it started the car and -- directing for. What is it as you know I've screwed this strategy. I it -- -- points -- my point is since he was gonna hit. It was that we have the job. Other crisis and turnaround. To what everybody acknowledges everybody. Would -- what they are completely to about the camp probably money Beijing. Olympics which bodies. Yeah he he the any image and again he don't want to explain how bad it was one when he took over mean there was there was -- What the Olympic Committee that would it was a couple of guys who had been fired get a kick out now. There wasn't any these these national committee at Colorado Springs and as a that the Salt Lake Olympic organizing complete without ought to -- Okay I wanted to put it in the fall because everybody was the scandal. That they -- caught fine. The Olympics what country what we got they got caught. As well -- the ability huge reputation well. But it went pretty well like. And and they leads itself to certain they wanted somebody who. Would immediately so content. And not just that thing -- that -- could really need in order. It can't walk it but not yet again done. And party and his first meeting out there. And that it would com it was direct it was compared to that it's an app to activate them. And you repeatedly leaving work well on his watch. We -- the way he struck -- a flight cutbacks and it was all very very very impressed. Deputies at the same time and integrate. -- Well what the Democrats of trying to do to twit any aspect 2002 with the so -- He say that everybody acknowledges he made it. And let me a lot more stability huge event would have gotten. How scary it was after the Atlanta it was the first major. And it went walk ballot wallop. It gave credit for the -- Well I -- -- remember -- -- tonight eleven I mean the other wars that wars near panic in the air are you remember the you know we've been talking about marbles Menino today -- marbles going out and you know what he and Tom Riley the AG sank. Saying does feel free to go to the Red Sox game as the models put -- you know army knew they had that they had urged people to leave their houses to go to go to faults they were close skier. You know and epic -- people Salt Lake in the world -- you come to the US. And it was gonna say it would -- well rock and that what Mitt Romney did. You even get give the credibility back to the public what they exhibit of the Olympic Committee. The ball US Olympic Committee and the world community. And it and get bad because of the Olympic play with me I would better. We are now he's getting you know we he's got a lot of grief he's -- a lot of grief today kernel you've seen on the Internet you know because he's just said he wasn't sure whether that how well prepared they weren't now one now the British papers they're just looking for you know story for Friday. And so there are they're going after announcing who how does he know all listened you know who was -- tell us what to do. Bob I've got a couple of sorry thought it I think the -- -- okay cool what private securities -- -- at 88 -- They've they've got some good people -- it will be at what. Clinton did what Robbie hit that drop. We went to police departments give it up out of it all it would not have happened. And you know if it didn't -- -- I was there that things what they think what that failed states. I think what is that that couple -- up by the -- -- -- optics. That the collapse is that it was well well well and again and very tense environment. Lighting up about. Is leadership is right away when he showed up you're up at midnight train. He was he was kind of a leader who was checking. What were they were they knew where to play in there and very impressive. We -- problem because that would you what what the world event in the US. And leave it there but but he used the Olympics in any other fashion. So people are asking where this at a rail where this -- was running at the -- running it was just a web that wasn't that basically yeah it was web bad they had on YouTube. I think there were using what I was told today by the Romney people as they were using that they were using Olympic video and the video you know. To it to try to knock him and the Olympic Committee said the you know you have no right to use that and it's already been pulled from YouTube so it's probably -- -- -- -- unless somebody unless us some mighty Obama all website. You know stashed it somewhere. And get an outlet which is happening crit -- in the barking mad really okay yeah about the fact that we've gotten equality. I think that look at the not to get that this. What did he say I've missed comrade Chris last month what do these. In reference yet. He reference. Anything you know outlook during the Olympics. Rock Romney has echoing that same board that Obama -- -- you know you're not alone yup why it was completely misconstrued. And it -- use it fact that they told the court. That's how I thought they show that clip of the Chinese. That it is my point is it. They're -- is nothing but -- Yeah what what he did what all -- leadership. That was successful world event which you're probably not using that -- and let let equipped army he wanted to take. The -- -- -- it like it take a swing probably do about it game. 978 says on the Apollo mortgage text like could you tell the colonel would go on CNN and MSNBC and where every can go and talk about Romney in the Olympics. Well only fox would like it that much if you want CNN and MS Titanic. Yeah. Again and I've got out of -- not that they are already. And I that I would get a black -- -- obscurity but not on the issue we can't duplicate that just came up. And it psychic what that he was doing that for what three years people -- -- -- And that case it is not just the -- everybody involved. Olympics every country. Every every about certain parts of the president. Mean everybody came away impressed with the various. Did you ever see him out by the way. To somebody said the only time they've ever seen a man that was when that the but pile solid on the tunnel and kill somebody and he was screaming at that Thad -- did you ever see him have in the during those years I. I'd like you got -- like it is it campaign but. I've only seen that I've heard him swear like a soldier and I loved it. Or else you're I didn't think he swore I thought it was a Mormon colonel. As a OK but -- -- that don't want in a perfect moments where that's what that's why. If somebody like that swears he gets more than I would like we -- -- At the delegates that -- it was it was me. He looked at -- I mean it's a great thing to do to -- -- -- down -- musical. But that this could say they expect anything but great moral and that the -- -- -- And and it was failing we got caught buying you know what. -- -- put an ending higher -- Olympic Committee was fired. You look what the committee -- -- -- and Robby came in and heard it right and it is thirtieth bigger than bank declined government money may. Yeah kernel colonel -- turn him on you now 617 says figures that he watches MSNBC. I don't watch the enemy wouldn't stop you don't want with the -- -- act like a corporate check check out and 6 -- I want you to. What he wouldn't. 603 says when a campaign attempts to demonize a success the tank is truly bone dry Obama in coral and more and more like McCain and October -- away. I think I think it does the idea that cut and now the mean everybody how everybody would bear the crowd would pack it would it would look at -- -- very very well. Country to about two. And people forget. Made it back to eat it that -- all began. To turn the country around what how. That's -- agency report what because of what Romney hit.
