He looked at it from a any advertising at a state where McCain's got a ten point -- He's also oh by the way speaking of Florida and Republicans and John McCain. Did you see -- this was this was the big story in Florida for the big story here. You know Charlie -- the governor of Florida a -- confirmed bachelor bachelor is actually a divorcee but that they've been there have been many stories about. About Charlie -- many rumors about Charlie Crist. Guess what just as McCain is about to make his decision on who always going to pick as his vice presidential running mate. Charlie Crist has gotten -- again. -- all White blood. Yes yes many weeks and nudges in the local the local papers down there about. Exactly while Wendy's are enough of that one -- we'll get back to what Barack Obama and leave the national races in -- while. 18774694322 -- they want to talk about though is this displaying a talkies on line keep from a month. -- what's happened it."

" I don't see yeah what's what's the boss. What sort. Well it's getting crowded loaded up with -- when he. People these days to -- oh it just now that the pricing gases that's -- Could -- credit."

" So what's on your mind this more this afternoon --"

" Well I was listening to you talk about -- and Barack Obama. And I just had this -- it is but that they be perfect running mate for each."

" They what well carry you know the thing is Kerry tried to get McCain to be his running mate in 2004 now he says he's bigger flip flop of the idea. That's it maybe maybe they were even more simpatico that we thought 2004. The -- each and flip them back and forth be between each other's positions you know. Jim -- McCain could and out of Kerry -- announced he was changing position basic. His vice presidential candidate had decided to pick up the -- position and did renounce his former position."

" Yes strange how these things where it is for me."

" For you voting fort talk."

" You're gonna do it for Bob Barr. The former congressman from Georgia."

" That if there on the Rhode Island -- still wait to find out -- who's on the."

" If he's not on the ballot will you vote for Nader."

" They took -- don't be a stranger okay."

" Oh sure -- objective to catch cat."

" At all. That's very good catches catch can come right that would avenues that some day."

" Most of the time I just -- the United. Joy -- listening a lot."

" Thank -- ducky thank you and and my best to everyone in in the state of Rhode Island."

" I -- you had no crew."

" Thank you talk. Dave your next with how -- cargo ahead day of."

" He just wanted to call for the years that. Smoke smoke smoke cigarettes are enough. 1877469432 to let me quit smoking let's talk about this fourth of July parade in the in the Beverly forms now Beverly farms. -- Beverly."

" Which -- Beverley Beverley is one of those strange communities that has like a working its its a big. Geographic area of the city of Beverly in the on this in Essex county north of the city of Boston. Beverly is more -- working class middle class area but then they got these is that they got parts of this of the a city like Beverly farms. And core rights crossing that's where -- Kerry Healey AKA mafia Huey lives -- these million dollar mansion and so even though again even though they have a sort of radio. Eight -- during middle class very blue collar. Core part of the city they sometimes would look down their noses on other people like people from Gloucester for instance now we all know this is a Nash this became a national story. And we still don't know exactly what the truth -- the big time magazine reported that there was a they picked up I forget who they picked it up from. They pick it up from one of the local newspapers up there -- no problem I want the Boston papers but the the -- that there was a supposedly hacked. Between these girls at Gloucester hide that wanted to get knocked up so that they can these teenage girls so they can all raise their kids together and they were just going out looking for guys and one government -- knocked up by a but by yeah. A homeless guy. And so. So this thing's been going on for a while the mayor of that the mayor of Gloucester senate's all BS that there was no pact that were few women girls got knocked up but Gloucester high but -- get knocked up -- Gloucester high. That's life. The principal said world no there really why he did hear the word -- used. And so it's it's kind of gone back and forth back and forth ABC Good Morning America found found one of the allegedly pregnant girls and her boyfriend. And they you know they they gave up some some mushy interview one TV last week. But anyways -- for the July there's -- and the annual parade called the Beverly farms horrible sprayed Beverly farms as one of the one of the upscale parts of the city of Beverly. And so I'll just -- to the story from -- that a little bit of a repugnant fourth of July parade spoofing gloss stirs. Teen baby mama drama has touched off a class war on the north shore between Tony Beverly farms in -- working class neighbors in the nearby fishing village. Allowing insulting floats in the annual Beverly farms horrible parade including one tossing condoms with candy. As -- taken the baby -- to a new Los at Gloucester mayor Carolyn Kirk I'm deeply offended and they -- but for the grace of god go your daughters -- daughters -- community said Kirk when told of the salacious satire. Even after three Beverly farms judges walked off the July 4 pregnancy part parade marched on with men in diapers crawling from between a woman's legs. Procter and birthing stir ups and a giant fail it's sprayed the crowd and their parents with -- Sprayed the crowd as their parents and pots were confronted with signs like. G eight GHS girls went to band camps came back pregnant tramps. And that's just what can be printed. Washed or high school made headlines around the world last month when time magazine reported several of the seventeen expect them high schoolers had a potentially become pregnant as part of a pact. The parade depicted pregnant teens waged in the tiny school desks and dancing a bump and grind and a baby shower. -- said she won't waste any time. Seeking an apology from Beverly farms but said basically triggers a class war between this well to do on -- and working class city. Beverly mayor Scanlon refused to get involved because it's Odyssey sponsored happening but conceded it's horrible story. Footage of the lewd rude rolling raunchy -- has been posted on YouTube. -- been involved with this for some like forty years I will be a judge again deal Townsend told herald yesterday I gathered it's a horrible parade but it was overkill with the cost of pregnancies. The thing that upset us more than anything was they were throwing condoms. What was it whether whether they think it was like something that then at the cathedral that in the south of the Boston and they were they were that just ordain some priests in the of a local gay activists decided this go up by choosing their Amal. Is throwing condoms at the priests -- and the thing that upset us more than anything was they were throwing condoms or five and six year old kids picking them up and saying what kind of candy is this. Another person mar Kuerten who abruptly -- hired as a horrible story judge so I felt it was just a little too horrible for freedom we have -- they needed to be a little more discreet. And then a member of the farms pride. I guess that means I think that means not farms pride but that means Prides Crossing I believe the farms pride fourth of July committee again these little -- Neighborhoods in the in Beverly. The forms pride fourth of July committee doesn't agree it's -- parade bomb -- reason it's designed to poke fun at different events. You listen you know I thought about this might read the story this morning. The last thing I ever want to be accused as a talk show host or just as a person is is of being approved a Big Blue nose. But I wouldn't if if this had happened if my kids were there. There's not much into with a thirteen and fourteen Euro is that never go to operate with a square like me you know they go down by themselves. But I did if they're young if I had younger kids are unified the eleven year old with me and and they suddenly started throwing throwing out condoms. Out into the street. Mean I'm out of there I I don't I don't need that I don't I don't think that's really necessary I don't. And it'll be the people -- its its an interesting war going on on the message boards on the Boston Herald today about this whole this whole thing in their -- well this is a lesson where this is -- this is up protest. Against the the welfare society you know the -- anti poverty programs that led to this kind of despicable behavior where were women -- young women teenagers get knocked up to have about welfare benefits and I understand that but it's you I think you make the point another in other ways other than this -- mean this is just kind of disgusting so might might feel it my question is where you know what do you what do you think of that semi. Where the where they -- doing this -- doing this kind of thing this parade. Where their -- throwing condoms and they have these women dressed up in the these young women -- support pretending to be pregnant. And their mocking another that nearby community is this is this. Obviously they have a right to do it but is this is this a 88 something that should be in a raid on the fourth of July. 18774694322 Mikhail your next with -- cargo ahead Michaela."

" How it don't think -- protecting your and that developing standards versus site you don't live by."

" But -- they're claiming now it -- their defenders are now claiming that they were that they were trying to establish a standard by doing that's and I think there. I think they're totally full of."

" Can't blame but well they're the ID when there's a deeper -- at the issue of it I'm not mistaken Gloucester what the town that that now. We want to continue to. Coupons and not a comprehensive sex education but expect that the case and that they'd gotten that all of Tennessee's methodology. Which in our society never talked about anymore it that would you know human that you."

" You really think this has anything you do with sex education."

" Well I think I think it's the component that. I think the broader issue we have at this site that has has pumped that message is in that educate and we'd come back. And then he'd be."

" They're just ignored that the the people who are supposedly parity in the situation -- just doing the same thing you know like throwing condoms that at kids."

" Which which again -- report the message that you know common expect to be they respect. But somebody look at the FDP report we have more -- out there how much safer are they really. I mean how much educating have we really dotted none of that have to do with character you know. People can sit there and they had their heads in the act like they're not. You know I don't agree with that. And you have throughout history to have people who -- able to refrain and have things called self control and felt that the plan. And there are still people to David do it and it will."

" The sad thing about this too is that in in the old ratio again obviously. Some percentage of teenage females are going to get pregnant you know at any given time. But in the old days -- what you were you were shot and somewhat and and you know you -- in in most cases you gave the baby away in many cases the baby ends up in a decent home and -- raised -- in a it in a normal environment and grows -- to be -- in normal citizen in this case these kids are -- they have no expectation of giving the -- away the -- it's a free -- it's it's -- a ticket to -- the two way section -- apartment -- and to the to the Medicare card and to lead the food stamp card. And the -- just an exit just a free ride that's what they're looking for. 18774694322 and now car."

" 1877469432218774694322 -- toll free number of them I would cars show. -- a pair of tickets to see the Red Sox take on the Minnesota Twins on Wednesday July ninth and appear Fenway Park -- fastest you've --"

" For more information visit Red Sox dot com or call 61722666 XX for Fenway Park towards. So I'll be the fifth caller right now on the on test line 61793116 say -- 61793116 say -- the fifth caller right now. It you'll windy up here tickets to see the twins game. On Wednesday night in the Africa India appear Fenway Park pork passes well in if you don't win this time we -- more to give away throughout the course of the day so -- just keep by keep keep blessed. -- your -- talking about the this this parade on a fourth of July enough Beverly farms Leo holy one of where eighty -- the neighborhoods in the Beverly making fun of the Gloucester pregnancy Indian in in -- in a crude. In a crude way I mean you know. My maturity anyway would've been particularly nice and and again -- I'm not a big fan of niceness as you as you probably know if you -- of the show but. He you know. The there is some to be set for what the mayor -- percent which is a mean you know there but for the grace of god goes goes one year were loved ones knocked up. Now and the dearly want to be making -- making fun of wouldn't have a neighboring community about this. And and I understand I understand there's a -- you know it's it's a terrible thing when if if this story is true -- I and I still -- from from the very beginning I've had my doubts. About the just how how widespread this thing early as this act but. Is it is it really something that was paid to to be making jokes about win win the jokes include throwing Cobbs of little kids. And and having an having grown men coming out from from from between the legs while women on the floats its its you know what it sounds like what I read I think. It sounds like the animal house is eat meat -- At the at the end the animal house movie right amid isn't what this is exactly what it was my goodness it. I gotta I have a feeling that the people who built the floated -- animal house fairly recently Tom here next with how we cargo ahead Tom."

" It talks are now that I'm confused are are you embarrassed by it doesn't tell you that you're you're you're not uproot -- embarrassed by federal law."

" No I I just think it was it was going too far DO ID you know why again I like crew usually I think of myself -- someone who likes crude satire. But in this case I would have to -- I'd walk away from this. I don't watch it on the sidewalk I'd say that's it I'm out of here."

" While Portugal have been dug -- so. But at what you make fun of characters from murder people what you make ought to -- the standard Bobbie I -- music that's group."

" Yeah I think it's I think it's grown to make you thought of amid the in this way I mean again. You could make you could say you know there's there's a larger social issue here that yet you know we're encouraging unwed motherhood by that the benefits we government's efforts that are. But I I don't think this is the right way to go about doing it."

" Well I don't I I'd definitely would have walked away from the parade myself but it it was quite an -- We know a lot of big storm on the -- that I don't necessarily agree what. But I'd figure a little disingenuous because I I had figured out and about what."

" Yeah I know what I -- again I don't. But what can I tell you I mean I just wouldn't stick around for something like that I mean Roger's idea I don't I don't like to have fast. You know I don't like seeing people -- stolen out of their minds every every September on Boston Common."

" I've got the best when it broke out that you don't show up they should probably operate that they don't have a tablet."

" Thanks for the call -- 18774694322 I don't think they I I think this problem I diverted this parade before but I they say you know weren't PC and -- poke fun at the current events at all like kind of stopped. Well you know sows -- the St. Patrick's day breakfast you know but the other certain. And -- you make jokes about booze and hack jobs than some new things like that it. -- you know he's you don't you don't cross a certain line -- all was all whatever your parity. Or satirizing whatever the word you want to use -- you -- to a certain you walk a fine line and you don't go beyond that and these people just spot but crossed the line. And I'll bet I'll bet they're getting mega hits mega mega hits today you'd do. 18774694322 set out your next with a point cargo nets now."

" Eric I'll go out there on. I thought I would I'll bet separate hours so well let -- bandit or you know something sometimes though sometimes. It's a lot of that they are I have like six year old thought out and that's why one year old -- op. The White pick -- product out Greg and it's experience yeah. I sometimes like that ABC special Ali kind of shocked our. I 21 year old ball won't vote their man."

" The good things high. Shock for Ali and -- all right amount you."

" Do you think they were you know. What lesson to the six year old get -- to operate when that when all of a sudden a condom comes flying out."

" Aren't -- our -- point I'd -- right there at all sure brought a lot of banks but. Bought all sudden -- thought they should've done it down about eight straight typical hot stuff what set out the door probable."

" Well that's the other thing shall I mean they were weren't they trying to say we're better than you know. You don't have what it was all about to know."

" I figure out that there seem that they I -- joke on a low profile but some aren't Jakarta proper shock there aren't that well well. And --"

" But it what it was how many people from Gloucester where their added that they were trying to shock I mean they were they were basically these were basically people from Beverly farms and Prides Crossing correct. And those are and again I live at Wellesley. So I can say it these are big money people collect. Always a big money people who get a little would get a little chuckle. Out of their blue collar neighbors that have had this so this black IE war in -- in the worldwide press."

" Oh yeah I all girl like I thought a lot of products like these four girls -- sure export. What it got at all."

" Thanks for the call -- 18774694322 on the -- car"
