" And now they're stunned forma holiday card show. Now the latest team is what we're gonna drill offshore now look I want to be absolutely clear to everybody but there's a -- That I could provide you. Some immediate relief. On gas prices by drilling all the shores California we need to drill more true now. That's the high ground now. Hey let's look at home so if I thought that by drilling offshore we could solve our problem cargo is that what topic is that a flip flop movie and I don't really like Charlotte and -- I didn't."

They've given him two or three chances to come back in the absence this as a this is the last straw although of course you know way these things work with the public sector unions this thing this will be dragged on for years surprise surprise yeah. Exactly. But finally finally mumbled says the upper hand against these guys. All it took was you know few stories in the newspapers and then the intervention. Of the federal grand jury the department of justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Few hundred subpoenas. Couple more stories about how these guys were trying to -- the records apparently trying to slip some of the records out. Over there's a yet they were trying to slip amount underneath. Under the surveillance cameras which were operational. And after the records have already been Xerox. So you know as -- course this is the great irony about the investigation you could end up with nobody going away for getting a fake pension fake disability pension.

Like he's like he's like he's an actor it's a Boston based movie. It's -- days and it's that led to use the accident and I guess there's such big stars no one can call about it. I don't know it but. You know I -- I don't think there's a big problem with a guy he I know we pushed down the the social worker with a supervised visit and that's assault and battery died I -- of that but I don't. I don't think he's a violent criminal and they you know there was no there was no. Record of abuse or anything like that it was just that this this rich English woman got tired.

" Is black rock. The size now and hopefully he has 54%. Okay. That does mean you shouldn't do time but I just used to -- it -- fifth when I get you. A lock you up but tortilla way."
" Like the quote it was it was a happy story to wake up agreed on Sunday morning -- on the Internet course I was and I was in North Carolina but. -- to wake up and here's C via Boston Police police. Who was involved who was running the operation back here the investigations say it was it was the greatest highlight of his police career. To be able to tell the mother that they had that they've gotten a kid back I mean it's it's it's a story that and I have a happy and in the nobody got killed. Dog nobody got beaten up everything just went. Hold holy by the book. Good job cops 18774694322. We're talking about the campaign. Iraq is in town tonight he's having fundraisers at sixty state street that's the big -- 28000 per Koppel I believe. And then there's a smaller one. For shorter money at 75 state street which that the scandal starred scarred building of Boston political history of also this evening. Nancy Pelosi is in Boston promoting her her book. Which is we all hours yeah. It's not doing all that well. Meanwhile the the Republicans are continuing to pummel the the the Democrats need to -- in particular but also Barack Obama. On the on on the fact that they were there on the wrong side of offshore drilling. And they they've the they've done a lot of these polls. Quinnipiac for instance that shows. Shows McCain and Obama basically a dead heat in some of them some of the states -- Obama had a ten point lead to a three weeks ago. Apparently the reason is because those they've they also asked the question how do you stand are you floor against offshore drilling in -- came back by by margins of thirty to 40% in all these Bellwether of big states. That the people for offshore. Our shore drilling mean anything to get the price of oil now -- and a I mean they're just that he did not convincing with these arguments the Democrats I mean all they only want to do they want to tap the strategic oil reserves okay that's fine. But that's that's in the -- that's an immediate fix and they say. Well we can't get any oil for ten years in the fact is they've been. Stonewalling this thing for ten years if if they hadn't been stonewalling at -- of that we would we would be getting oil from offshore improbably it's like to take ten years anyway to begin. In them than their for the other one of their fallback positions is. Well the oil -- from the Alaska pipeline goes to China and Japan."
" And Astro you know why. Because they haven't building oil refineries for more than thirty years on the west coast they can't handle the capacity. To get that we have to build some more refineries. I mean it's not it's not the solution for four ever. It's not a solution for the long term but guess what in the long term we're going to be that. Okay we got we got -- I get we've got to get through this this period now where where they -- where there will be a transition. To other forms of energy. And this is this is not good for the economy rather obviously they had. You know I mean. So I was lucky social but it callers were liking Maria Alex -- opinion you know. 3735360. Gallon Laporte bastards. Honest and still have to go to half beast and staged."

" Alex regulations on your induction national radio -- I don't want to say that I am so so scared that Obama is going to win in the next election and the Blue Line. It's because there is so much easier to destroy something than the six we're created in general. You know it only -- like a swing a hammer or in -- bubbles put on public rattled break it but hours and hours to fix or replace. It's even fixable. And Obama to me is that -- You know people elected I'm terrified that he's going to just a few years or it just a few months destroy what makes this country great."
" And will bone bone overestimated I mean we -- we survived Jimmy Carter you know I mean. It's. You do whatever corrective coming up in in 2000 patent you know 435. Members of the House of Representatives 13 of the -- it'll -- up for election and you know what takes a lot to destroy I agree I mean it's it's a scary thought that you know he can do a lot of damage there's no question about it but. Number one this thing's not over a number two when they're you know that the country has a lot of -- so -- silly and still you know."
" Yeah I do have George will recently wrote in the Washington Post about column. You know leaders that has. Promised to do you make these vast changes really quickly and the only kind of that's possible either. Because the -- or war or somebody over growing government. I'm paraphrasing well butchering as well. So too would do what Obama want to do you'd have to do something. Horrible."
" Yeah that's the you know the good thing about all this flip flopping well is is that it it's pretty much showing though. That he will he really isn't. That radical that it may he may not be that radical as he has appeared by his voting record in his in his rhetoric earlier in the campaign. I mean he's he seems to be a go along get along guy that I'd rather have the deal with a Chicago packed. The with the the and ideologues who hangs out with the members of the weather underground you know. And in this he's looking more like a Chicago hack every day. -- be haven't seen bill Ayers and any of his rallies have lately or Bernadine border. Well Reverend Wright are -- they -- the the Catholic priest I mean they've they've all banished you know and maybe they're just hide now until after the election but. Not at all. I think he wants to be president for eight years I know I don't think I don't think going down the radical wrote his is the way to while winner winner at second term. Thanks for the call well 18774694322. -- car."
" There are things you can do individually though. To save energy. Making sure your tires are properly inflated. Simple thing. But we could say although that what they're talking about getting off throwing your vote but it was just inflating their tires. And getting regular two months. You can actually say just this month."
" Yeah I was voice rises. -- says their tires. Like he doesn't even believe it. Answered with a question mark like I can't believe I'm sick of this -- This selling Jimmy Carter talked about wearing sweaters. And the national malaise. And he does and it's it's not it's not too many good. One he's still a heavy favorite I mean that that was the big I think if if you go back over the weekend and you see what was the predominant theme. -- all the talk shows in the big newspapers in the the Internet. Commentators that the big theme was. How come Barack Obama is and -- by ten or fifteen points mean you have a guy like Mike Dukakis twenty years ago. It was the same sort of situation. You have the Republicans going for a third term in a row. And Dukakis is promising change and he seventeen points ahead at this point. In the beat it after the convention but he was about he was close to seventy points -- going into the convention. And he's he's like -- charisma you know he he he had less much less going for them Barack Obama does. And get yet he was way ahead Barack Obama is is not -- And as give away and Juan Williams today in The Wall Street Journal. The race issue was clearly not going away in the key reason to be bought this because there is no telling how many white voters are lying to pollsters when they say they plan to vote for a black man to be president."
" And you know but. I don't know I mean it it it wasn't as it's pronounced in the primaries. As it was years earlier that the classic example of course being I think. Los angels mayor Tom Bradley in California running for governor as a Democrat against Billy who was duke -- May be well somebody was -- Asian. And Hugh Bradley was ahead all through the campaign. And then at the very end. -- came out of won going away the Republican in the white guy. Mr. Obama's campaign concedes it has no example of Republican attack that expressly sites mr. Obama's name or race. Yet the past few days some Obama supporters were -- again this is Juan Williams a black -- missed suggesting that a McCain ad attacking mr. Obama -- as little more."
" That a celebrity by featuring young white women such as Britney Spears is an appeal to white anxiety about black men and white women that's absurd. 18774694322. By the way one other thing we've been talking about them device the Republican vice presidential pick him. Who's it going to be. William Kristol these pretty well tied him obviously. Two to the Republican establishment. He's now column Op Ed columnist for the New York Times every Monday's also publisher of the weekly standard commentator on Fox News Channel. He writes about it this this this week. I do not I do not see may be -- May be I've I've looked it over three or four times and I see all kinds of people mentioned for the Republicans. I do not see Mitt Romney's name and -- in this whole column in the New York Times today as it is potential candidates I. Q we have -- involved. -- power in the Alaska Eric -- he's the flavor of the week that he -- 45 year old Virginia congressman. Then plenty. Rob Portman the former R Iowa called the former Ohio congressman. Tom ridge. Joe Lieberman the Democrat defense secretary Robert gates. Michael Bloomberg was left the Republican Party not that he ever was much of -- Republican. Fred Smith public you know no he has. I don't know we I didn't know he has I'll tell you though he's the FedEx CEO. Or meg Whitman the former eBay CEO. Chelsea -- name even moment was on some of the talking head shows this morning but that I didn't show up in the and bill crystal's column. Brian your next with how we cargo have Brian."

" Don't you don't have problem that is it John McCain -- wants saying that he. You know they'd port. He can't --"
" Right no you can't I mean that's why that's what it was smart for the McCain people would just come out and say. Say this is -- you can't keep by accusing it of racism every time your criticized."
" Unbelievable that they expect that he could fight -- like a great 28000 dollar back voted I think and I asked them. Could actually give it definition -- typical white person I have North Dakota and I have no idea what --"
" I am -- you know what change we can believe it is. There's another one. -- is sort of as amorphous is that typical white person I don't chorus. Yes they just words okay give me -- you give me your John Kerry site."
" I work -- big I don't like about this weekend and I would doubt it the other aspect fact that. And I would start -- that specialize brought it by boat they I think based which started about 530.

Now some won't -- one of his. One of his lackeys were here this and that will pass on the suggestion that now is John Kerry's worst night. I hope Bill O'Reilly becomes John Edwards worst nightmare tonight he's going to find they're finally going to do something tonight on John Edwards and I'm hoping that they take off the gloves you know. I don't want to hear about what he's talking about last week which was gore his girlfriend. I don't want to -- about his mistresses and as my newspaper reported.
