Avi Nelson - Clint Eastwood and the RNC

Well good afternoon everybody this is Don Nelson welcome to the program I said you let us. As we come through these psychological. It's not meteorological. Landed summer. Of course some are actually goes on and tell what the 21 of September. But as far as setting the engine off because it doesn't start to reclaim first of June and we cheated -- declared it started. At Memorial Day itself. We take a couple of weeks there are three weeks there and -- I guess only -- -- -- that we give back a little video thing shifted over to to the earlier part of the calendar. I know people are already depressed about it I think ought to mislead my favorite time of year so. But in any event the it is skins season is coming to an end for many people it's also. Labor Day usually spend a lot of time talked about a little bit of the history. And I do that very briefly. Just to give some context road courses so much to talk about. With the Republican Convention that was the Democratic Convention that will be. That I guess should soon god loves to talk about in the political domain so Pakistan as much time of in the end with regard to history. But when tornadoes go back to 218 need to. I'm Matthew Maguire machinist first proposed a holiday while serving as secretary of the central labor union of New York. Well others argue that it was first proposed by Peter McGuire. Of the American federation of labor and an 1882. That. And annoy should McGwire but they spell it different nation obviously not related. That came after witnessing the annual labor festival in Toronto. Oregon was much count on non US -- was the first day Jamaican holiday in 1987. By the time it became a federal holiday in 189430. States officially celebrated Labor Day. Pesci actually has a little bit of a checkered history there were. Sure there are a number of deaths. Of workers at the hands of the US military in US marshals during which called the Pullman strike. Then president Grover Cleveland reconciled with the leader of the labor movement and fearing further conflict. The US congress unanimously voted. To approve legislation then made Labor -- and national holiday. And we miss celebrating it ever since solo obviously it's taken on a very different meaning. Well it's mainly because. Labor conditions in the United States have dramatically improved. And that's why union membership has dramatically declined and we think the Labor Day. We think of it is a long weekend where we can have a holiday Ohio for a number of people cheated on Friday and maybe even longer. Posey -- anybody George back to the obvious on Tuesday. Just more we're having barbecues and baseball tournaments and having fun and that's good I mean that's a statement of progress. And the private sector union membership now is down I think it's 7%. Much higher in the public sector but any event having Labor Day weekend and hope you enjoy the psychological end of summer. -- one other thing that I want to mention because they and women called last week in recommended. The movie 2016. Obama's America. He's really 2016. The movie put together by Dinesh D'Souza and it is just come into the Boston area this past week and I went and saw. Now I I found it very well done and very compelling that it's one of those movies. That if you're anti Obama. Can rushing anti Obama and I know there's some people are gonna go ballistic I mean of course anti Obama in the political sense. And in favor of Obama having only one term as president you'll enjoy this moment. For those on the other side. For -- this movie would really be the most important thing to say they won't say it. But let's let's be honest if I came across a movie that was pro Obama what I rush to see it. And the people in between well I'd like to think the people in between would go to -- because I think it may influence of Hannawald -- for your accent is a very interesting thesis has put together by d'souza and d'souza and shoulders. From India. And just say conservative. Author commentator went to Dartmouth. And his very thoughtful. Contributor to the political landscape. The reason I mention is from India is because such an important feature of the film. It gives -- -- an opportunity to say that he understands the anti colonialist perspective because the British. Of course ruled India for many years. And his thesis is that the I was influenced Obama lot to. Because the British ruled Kenya for what additional X 68 years and Obama's grandfather. Was persecuted maybe even tortured by the British. And that has. According to do shoes and make some sense motivated Obama ally and -- explains why -- on the bust of Winston Churchill that got sent back. Never people on the other side you all know it really otherwise he was all alone and was loaned to America. This is the -- of church was flown to America. To George Bush to the Bush Administration. Right after 9/11 to show solidarity with the United States. And when bush was reelected. The loan was extended beyond that and then the British are -- to Obama when Obama was elected. In Obama refused. So the -- was sent back in action didn't go back and ended up in the home of the the ambassador to England so it's still I guess they're waiting maybe the next president born -- blessed that. You know it's a small thing but it does you do ask the question why would -- the bust of Winston Churchill back. -- -- here's the potential explanation all us by way of suggestion that you would benefit from seeing the film if you. Especially if you don't like Obama. -- and this gives some. An attempt at understanding what's motivating. Location movies 2016. Bombers America if you're just joining us good afternoon. This is on the Nelson. And we're inviting your participation -- -- phone numbers told free. 877469432. To the text message code is 68680. An email address and Nelson -- wrko.com. Okay. Republicans had a convention. For those of us who were politically inclined maybe even political junkies really. Found that it was interestingly. Watched a -- a bit. And got something on it I must say that I thought all in all. It was really well done all the speeches for good there on number of of speakers who're really good. I've heard some of the people who attempt to criticize and find you are exposed to some extent it's. In the I had the ball holder in the year -- -- be here or whatever acknowledge that. You can come up with different perspectives. Are dollar Romney give a very good speech. I -- Dick Morris student told the Reagan national I don't know if I would go that far. Resumed describe it wasn't poetic but it was probably effective and I think it was very effective. I find danger than the others were good on Ryan's speech was excellent. Condoleezza Rice spoke well and Romney I thought spoke very well. There's a lot of controversy now about that Clint Eastwood was really -- speech. Interestingly enough part of the problem -- she was allocated five minutes he went eleven and a half. And I think maybe I'll I'll start there because. Well. It's probably the least important politically except for the way it's been handled. I must say that I didn't see the Clint Eastwood speech where he gave it. And I started hearing about always criticism he was stumbling and and he couldn't put things together -- machine island. I saw I heard the critique. And I guess I was prepared for something that wish. Which really that in that I watched this the who called speech live performance. On YouTube. Which I recommend to you also if you wanna participate in the -- It was interesting because you issue is doing and you are using his alleged terror. And that's where he was doing was doing a particular bid to an empty -- of viewers having a very halting conversations. Where. And -- and Barack Obama. It was done in that style. You know where you hesitate almost like a Dustin Hoffman kind of a style not very -- I I think. There's legitimate criticism that I think it could have been a little a little bit smoother. But -- entourage following. 90 humorous and very much according to the individual. I thought he had some good lines and good comedic lines. And he also had some good lines at the end when he said that you know we all in this country politicians are employees. Can one imagine doing the job after little girl. -- Latin wish I think was fine. No one no problems here you say is we've just spent so much time and I guess I guess to some extent I'm participating in this. Worst thing -- time talking about this particular episode. And all that time is distraction. Away from talking about Mitt Romney. The political campaign. And the important issues of the day -- in that regard. It probably was a poor choice not that anybody knew was gonna go on it was a one unscripted part of the convention and I understand from reports that. That some of the Romney campaign operatives are very nervous about always going out partly because of the nature of the that he was going on over time. I'm partly because of an erroneous script did you get nervous when there's no script. I will say this -- that this summit in thirty years old had done that there might have been some critiquing -- to the acting style. When you're 82. And you look 82. And your voice sounds 82. He got to be careful Richard contents. Does not sound 82. Years old days. You've got to get away from three charges senility and I think Clint Eastwood would have been well advised. To understand that and therefore to have a smoother presentation. Mean that as it may it was and an interesting. Side bar a little bit different. And the other part of the convention I thought it was who then there's all parts were really quite good. 87746943. To do show I would like. To dwell on that we've gotten content issues we can talk about. And of course the personalities involved as well in the theories of what they were trying to accomplish. So if you like he joined in that conversation. We'd like to hear from 8774694322. Is a telephone number. The he via text message code is 68680. We've got another. Couple of text messages already your email address a Nelson NW RKO dot com. -- just by the way of course -- all the time. And I do give -- real sure the week and I are trying to read all of them. It don't get to respond to all the men moved too many. Shall join in the conversation if you let's go to the telephone lines now first up this Charlie good afternoon Charlie you're the -- thanks for calling. What will happen on our allies and I watched it didn't I think watching the convention live eat it added even more of an impact because that kind of unravel when Clinton was speaking annual watching that you -- same result -- so unbelievable it's like pitched. Yeah it was shtick. -- tell you what -- us. And it was great I -- spotted thoroughly entertaining I've heard even conservative commentators criticized his base our best among all man. I think distinguished travel -- -- -- let -- play he made 66 points. An 82 year old man to carry out off of that like the time. He's not a dummy. No -- and by the way do we should say that it was very well received in the hall by the delegates. Now I realize that that's you know that's the choir and when you're putting on something. That's that's going on national television. You've got to be interest data in what these broader audience is thinking and by the way Charlie he did run over and that pushed. Romney's speech later in part of it out of prime time show. It wasn't he wasn't totally in control avoid what he was doing otherwise you know the five minutes wouldn't have become eleven. Right flooded out -- that's for sure and after it went on I -- -- myself well I wouldn't wanna fall out of I was. I kept yeah but why -- -- guy basically had your reaction -- I didn't -- alive and yeah you're right that's a good point maybe apply its sheer blind. Without. Having heard some of the criticism before. Maybe I would have had a different reaction. I think we would have enjoyed it probably wouldn't -- a lot of great. Tonight I thought Marco Rubio. What I said all I wouldn't -- beat him following up that my -- we'll pick up that ball I thought he did a fine job my seat and -- and his forgetting a way to present this speech. He's like up slightly fast -- Be black or did I ever dreamed. My. Outlook again he had a slight slight exacerbate but he had a passion and I and I. It can -- I like spell -- -- I watched him speak I would watch it next time issues. You know. OK London I think Marco Rubio is very good and you're one of the things that conventions offers her conventions offer Charlie. Is. Each and the combination of the present and the future -- she of course the team that's going to be presented in this election. And they're also showcasing. The people going forward and it's frequently the case. That. Person who introduces the nominees or gives a keynote speaker. Later become his. An important person in his own right so for example Bill Clinton was one who introduced Mike Dukakis. And even though he went on too long awaited finally shading conclusion there was a a mock cheer our room watching that speech. But but Bill Clinton was a nominee next time. And anyways should Barack Obama who gave the keynote address should -- four convention. Then nominated John Kerry and we all know what happened there so some of these people that you're looking at when you're saying your impression Marco Rubio in this case is also of course Paul Ryan. Who is next generation. You're she you're seeing the showcasing. Of talented -- love from from -- There where you know the -- number. Impression of people who represent the future of the Republican Party. Thank. That's a great point I -- belt they'll actually you know what we always thought I always thought that I didn't know people come up -- they can run the ball like oregano whoever. And I -- particularly if there -- -- come on and it's going to be more common. I try not try the for the future of the Republican Party looks pretty good thanks Charley thanks for calling Emily also looks good. Because the nature of the country. -- is. Is it's a center right country. And that means. It's playing in to where the Republican Party is and away from where the Democrats are. Despite of course the Democrats believe there was this is somehow the other way around. 8774694322. Is the toll free number text message code. 68680. When -- idea there isn't this somebody from 617 who crook who sends this every week so let me. Let me deal that again. I think the text message -- wind is WRKO. Continue to run PSA that's public service announcement with Obama. Does Romney get equal time and the answer is no he does not because -- mom is president of the United States. When Romney becomes president of the United States should PSAs will run with Romney and the Democrat. The challenge urged the leader employees wherever will not give equal time as well it's it's a way it is it's one of the perks of you know winning the office that you get. You'd get to do things as president of the United States that other people don't get to do this one of the reasons people like to have the office has a lot of power and influence. Page elements are 469432211. Of the things that's happening now. You know this is a national debt clock. In going your computer you can bring it up. If you saw that the Republican National Convention just runs it's Spain's. And if it's remarkable. How much -- we are running up every minute I think it goes up four and a half million dollars. In every two minutes is or something like that. You can take a look at -- which you'll see it's closing in on sixteen trillion dollars. The reason I mention is I think it's gonna hit the sixteen trillion dollar mark. In the middle of the democrats' convention. And that is in nice touch that the world has sent -- nice message. That it's crushing sixteen tree in which by the way puts it a little bit larger than the size of the entire United States economy. Where it's gonna hit sixteen trillion dollars as the Democrats. Are sounding off and and and blue they're going on about doing what they want to do much spending more money. I mentioned this my way of extended introduction. To the fact that we have to take a break because we do not have a debt clock running here. We pay our bills. This is Don Nelson. Welcome back this is on -- Nelson welcome to the program that you're just joining us. -- 8774694322. Harsh active producing his program he used to do at 3 -- you -- -- -- -- can do is to come. Come here and and benefit from the excellence of his work to replace some clips which he has -- garnered from the the convention and a little bit text message code is 686 shady. The email address and Nelson WRK -- dot com. From. From 617 -- best line Biden is the intellect of the Democrats. -- a few good lines. Moved it's certainly one of the good ones. I do want to get a little bit to two -- two we -- and you know one thing to put in perspective here. The conventions are watched by people who are interested good Rasmussen uninteresting. Article where column where he sets the pollster where he said that most of the people are not interest in -- -- don't watch. About maybe 20% of the people who watch which. There's a significant number of people -- say you know when when you really get to reach out to 20% of the country. But he also points out. That. The this would -- Mormon impact if people had more respect for reporters but only 22% he said believe reporters. Even try to offer unbiased coverage of political news sure and an issue that was once very highly regarded in terms of reporting. There's now much. Much -- held a much lower esteem because people have seen the -- yes that's one thing when you have commentators we will give our opinion. You expect them to have that opinion. But there are other channels like Chris Matthews from -- courageous if he's trying to give. They an objective point of view and it's so heavily biased that. It's embarrassing and then people people figure out they know what's going on. One other foot pole and then we'll go back to the telephone lines. In the -- -- came. And let's see Monday September 10 that such pretty. Pretty recent done and I get to Monday September -- already but in any event. Though partition trends should poll after falling for two straight months the number of Americans who consider themselves Republicans. Jumped nearly three points in August. The during August 37 point 6% of Americans consider themselves Republicans. That is the largest number of Republicans ever recorded by the Rasmussen report. Since monthly tracking began. In November 2002. Previous peak was in September of 04 so some encouragement for the Republicans. 8774694322. As the phone number Richie you are next on the program good afternoon. Probably -- yes but already an imminent explosion. GOK. -- thumbs up put the former mayor of Carmel -- California speech. It's been great. Those fellows not none initiated Clint Eastwood was the mayor of Carmel California. He should've mentioned I don't think anybody took note of -- so he's he's a politician himself this. The AI NN a successful on I mean so he knows what it means to. Do be in the administrative position being the mayor of the town. I must say that about. I was forced to watch the movies of only one after the entire body of work the ball one actor for the rest of my life public -- he -- -- -- Next it sure I'm sorry hello. I don't know I never thought of the question but I tell you originally been a very good line if you're if you're gonna be introduced to -- -- -- fault line. That would -- Kelly really cute thing for our rubio or -- to say that this. That's what -- is betrayed and seemed to be rather Walt Kowalski asked don't you think. And his parents are starting maybe was telling him at this point. Well off -- have -- Gran Torino did you see that will be. -- renteria. It's his last movie I think he looks pretty much like you look at different in this speech. Yeah I I must say they'd like it -- he would've been better I think you would have been more effective at the end. If he had gone a little bit away from the old man we were part of it you know and bill both in appearance and style. You know it anyways -- I think you would have at least undercut some of the criticism. I think there was something different -- it's not the usual style and that's the way politicians deliberate -- just seeing how they. The same -- in the same page thing. -- tried great but you know Richie yeah but if I -- been told -- we were told because of leaked out that the surprise guest was mideast would. I know I guess I expected different bearing. A different carriage Norman Maine a different style. From a from a Clint Eastwood then I got at the convention which is officially I enjoyed it but it. Didn't seem to be here seems to -- outscored the teleprompter. No he did now I don't think it was -- that that's Russia it was completely unscripted. No one else did that don't know -- -- -- without using any notes out of my outlook. And nowadays everything's got to be everything is robotic. Austin site and also kudos to me -- Yes I thought she would affect that should not honor and if you can just see how she develops maybe in the future as a Republican candidate for -- -- office. Right I agree I and there were a number of very good performers and at that convention. My final thing I'll make a -- reporter the networks taking nobility one million dollar Bill -- contribution to big Democrats. Don't want the same -- he used the C word to describe Sarah Palin. And how that there was nothing I would not know no Republican had issues such language describing Democrat. And I listen to the war on women but not all be looking forward to -- that -- By the networks. You may yacht club dog door while holding your breath through cheap car -- are gone I. Page 774694322. Bill Maher who has been his really vulgar and vicious and has he really has been nasty to women. By the end we made a contribution to the Democrats that nobody seems to care about that you can be sure that if somebody on the other -- some. Some Republican comedian fashion an oxymoron. Had made a contribution to. The Republican cause and it's a vicious nasty things about women boy we still hearing about it. 8774694322. Is the phone number for many. -- we've got some clips from Mitt Romney made. But only when we play the first one of those you wanna shake some there will go back go to the telephone that this is. Food for thought or for comment. I can still see her saying in her beautiful voice. Why should women have any less -- than men about the great decisions facing our nation. You know and those big applause after the one of the things that bothered me I understand the politics of this for one of the things that bothered me was his obvious pandering to went. You know you shouldn't something like that it's almost a cliche we get it and everybody applies to all he has were mentioned had their share. Saying he went on at 1 point I am Romney's wife. Could have done anything she wanted and anywhere on taught them all women in these interacted with. He mentioned Kerry -- which I think was a mistake Kerry Healey was ill prepared for the run for lieutenant governor and nobody knew she was he's he ran. And wind despite her presence on the taken not because I will that she grew in four years. Not on official when she ran for governor all right she was consequential candidates. Mean she should -- sounded more substantive to work out but. It was clear they -- -- find me the best -- you can which is not the way it's supposed to work. There's this endless. Chatter about how small Republicans have to do something about the gender gap where he gonna do about women. Well there's a war on women. You never hear the -- there hashed to be an equivalent gender gap on the other side right. The ratio is dead even give or take it there's a gender gap among women with Republicans. There is a necessity a gender gap among men with Democrats and their rich. Which you never hear the Democrats being pushed. Well there -- -- -- -- -- the big gender gap with men and where he ever heard the term war on men. Now and yet the fact is that the Republicans are making a mistake here. There rash what do you do about them with women what do you nobody Hispanics what do you do -- watch those are all democratic constituencies. The Smart thing would be not to ignore the necessarily. But to understand that your not gonna carry them. The place where the Republican message is resonating. With men. In particular white man because black men in this election. Are prejudiced by the racial connection. It would be a shame you know here going yes Italians in the -- an Italian candidate she waited. But the fact is that's where you're likely to get additional votes go after. The blue collar Democrat. Who philosophically. Inclined your way what the Republicans are not mentioned ensured. -- Rummy should stand him and say in a final elected president I will eliminate. Affirmative action. For all those men. Who being hashed over who scored higher on the police and firefighters are exempt only be passed over -- position -- -- wasn't dark enough. You're going to have a change in no oil law of the land is replied we're gonna go back to the constitution which talks about equality. When -- -- equality and liberty we're talking individual. Not groups. -- This is gonna happen of course you can tell from what went on at the convention. -- nonetheless. Is. What I think the political landscape. Shows and what the political campaign really should call for. That's where. The -- if Romney wins it's going to be because he carried men by a large enough margin. The gender -- by the way seems to be depending on which ball around six to ten points. And iShares -- Schaefer both genders. -- 774694322. Is the phone number. -- your next on the program good afternoon. All these days you go again -- -- this is actually an rant I mean I knew that that was coming you know you do best and that's just like mission. -- I -- one thing more I knew you were going to be the next call. I know what she did but you know I mean if Romney was -- like the Nike. You know I give him Paul Ryan think you know our god given right you know that we came in this country we got god given right you know for freedom meant Bob -- -- well. -- area near Dalai -- part. Well well I guess god and missed out on the east. African Americans in -- native Americans I I. I guess faith in god given right you know the -- and things like that I guess god actually missed out on the on on those individuals. The only difference is Canada is a lot today and you mode now you're black right you -- I mean people could not always about the money you would you can now so I think things got the -- We're talking about a patent we're talking about if if if Romney is in other words that. God given right god given right -- -- it to everyone not just the cute so we -- Romney. State. Today -- once you crawled into the 21 century are trying to stop badgering us about the ninth to beat any team you know -- Obama mentioned I. Sure I don't affirmative action is an aberration an abomination because it violates the constitution. What the constitution is supposed to be his equal rights for all you hear on the one hand you criticized because there weren't equal rights at the beginning and now you applaud when there are not equal rights now if -- -- -- to be learned that everybody should be treated equally and if you score 65. On a police -- and the white guys scores and 85 the white guy ought to get the promotion. Right yes I guess I just like when via the -- of them can't -- fit is to have ninety go to. Believe again I mean that they were excluded because they look -- Irish -- -- Although I have been so impressive guy. Bobby can't have a quite happy let me get my point so why are young and young boy my goodness I -- mother -- and -- go there. Tell got a text message question -- OK from seven I -- -- point you tell that you answer this question. It says you are you gonna see the movie 2016. -- The wonders of brunch. Not because I had you -- now my in the eyes flick on the line with your point I already know our guys you do it hasn't -- -- Whitman had a Republican Convention just reminded me more it would be pretty good case you know what you say weekly a web WR KL says we played a what did talk radio. Stay tuned it. -- the problem was the big lie that big right that. Paul Ryan told about the clinic quote think when the plant quote. Before Obama even took -- -- we lied about the welfare you know about the -- -- thing. You know these Republican. Convention is what -- showcase. -- lie down I did right. Condoleezza Rice AMD New Mexico -- I push you like to blow up I don't know did -- -- and appreciate him and she turned into why you wouldn't like her. I think it just reminded me of that Republican Convention. My child all these individuals of color. IBM that's a good date is march. I still have a mix the. He'll be surprised should know that all those people came there voluntarily nobody marched out. Well I can't Republican Convention had it much people call I had got there. Don't care about your your. Your. Hey because your body thank you are trying I don't I don't care about -- new faces there -- -- right I don't care how many blue eyes. There are in the crowd or people with brown hair blond hair that's what you do. You do that because then you're the beneficiary of it you don't have to perform you don't have to be talented you just have to show up. -- your skin color take you through your Elizabeth Warren type. She tried the same game unfortunately for her she was light skinned so she had to crawl back -- great great great great great grandmother or whatever it is to try and I think she's native American so she can get advancement. People like you have to try to make it. On criteria. Other than ability talent and performance -- That's your problem. Then you're right why don't count the faces I don't care about the faces if somebody says something which is compelling. And and noble and I don't share his hair color his skin color whatever it is you do. You don't care about what he said -- the exact opposite of what Martin Luther King said. Instead of the content of character you do you judged by the color of skin. And so all the other liberals and the Chris Matthews of the world right. That that's what you do day. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- No wrong dead and you know there are a lot of there are a lot of white males -- you'd be surprised walked down the street you'll find a lot of white males. The vast majority of them are not on the air. And they haven't been on the air for a long time like I had. In order to beat. On the parent to stay on the -- day. You have to -- things that are interesting to people where you have to engage people in a way that makes the program successful you can't figure out. Do you think that white skin get -- show where. -- How many right guys guys there do you think every one of them gets tapped on the shoulder and by somebody Lucia all ER one fellow were gonna give you an injected a position in the corner office. There are more white people on welfare than black people now as a matter of refuse do per capita -- its tire was born with blunt. Coach just. Raw fish Dave and you little this nonsense. That hole if you are white then you get privileged you know something gave it's interesting to me. Yet here you don't like white people I don't like the senate in society because you think white people get all the privileged and you are not white. And yet I find you stay here. You wanna get a reduced number of white people Africa is a whole continent. Full of countries where there are more blacks and white you put all there. Huge -- black you'd be in the majority. You wouldn't be many white folks around. You can go to you know why you don't go. And don't give me is garbage about driven out of your home and driving on one -- bullet during the -- reason his new live better here. He'll live better year than what's going on in Africa. Where there are all bunch of black people. You like it here there's affirmative action no affirmative action in African countries not for you may be for -- day piano in the minority but not for you. So you stay here you complain. You car you -- -- false things about white people's privilege you are the beneficiary. That's what affirmative action does and that's what we should get rid of. Bobby obviously. Because if you say that doesn't make erased a one of us as you can say all the US and they're proven why a pro action was. Allocated well there even created what because of what army because -- don't know -- men would not doing so don't give me this crap I. -- -- you know I think everything they record everything it not April. -- can't imagine -- -- god like all MM because -- don't know why you might. You're right day if things are not equal because people like you. Get to get promotions and get jobs on the basis of your skin color when people who are more talented. Was better performance and better records. They get set aside. Will you make a lot of noise about the people getting to a university because of affirmative action but what we never shake. Is the white kid who didn't yet. Into the university because of affirmative action he shouldn't disappear -- landscape it's an abomination. I agree I guess with what you think you're saying that everybody should be treated individually and equally. But nor did you do that we have to abolish affirmative action it's a good. OK -- got less than a minute into the news break my apologies -- people until I know that last call landlocked. And -- you know sometimes it's fun to get these things out however from 781. The text message -- are masochistic you letting Dave on your show he's a typical twisted liberal. Now he hi yah and guess whose people are divided on whether we should be on the program this email from Jenny. I waited all day for your program the only one of the only live one worth listening to a said bill I'm Don. I can listen enjoy more criticism there Republican Convention. Who initially was fabulously speaker for -- who was terrific all around we need all the help we can get sober day I'm done listening. Jenny come back. Back on the other side.
