" Marta. Wanna be -- is -- baby -- like."

" Morning -- we know Robin Williams he got government custody -- There's always look so Hollywood's been coughing in the quality of the Jetsons type you don't tell -- the material vilified or perhaps it's time until late last night really when you do. -- you -- babysitting you took the kids out to -- a clever -- Hannah fan period we went through on the street went -- assignment ourselves didn't think. Very excited to -- Tim Crowley back the other hand I was kind of exciting I was open for little fireworks but apparently it's just conversation they're probably planning their next arrest is that half half half. The out of conversation. That we know we were out late because my daughter in some more work to we're very light. And Donna and I worth have a little once had its -- So you support this two parents ignoring their kids households. Yeah as long as there are two other capable replacements and I think Donna and I premier figure the kids are better -- absolutely that are up -- a -- of run -- around like knots with -- they just absolutely love that they're completely insane. And it fits with me so that's where it works -- great they got them off. A mist of so much over the last several days I just hadn't seen. So so you miss and the release the big announcement of the 2000 page health care plan from the House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi I don't like to correct you -- 5:36 in the morning but -- Phillip --"

" It is not a 2000 page been mislead or writing into -- in nineteen. It's 1990. Pages and feel Lee. Easily understood I mean you -- about I guess early roundup when it comes -- pensions. And -- down otherwise but it's early 1990 pages or maybe you took issue with the lead the -- how comprehensible. This is Gloria is this isn't what they call plain English -- plain English and does he give us a little plain English pass -- here's one paragraph -- from the 1990. Page. Which I think they might take us months if we were researching implications of -- to figure out exactly what it would affect listen to this day how outpatient hospitals one in general. Section 1833. T three C four of the Social Security act. 42 USC thirteen 95 T three C four as amended K in the first sentence. By inserting -- this is which is subject to the productivity adjustment described in the sub clause two of such section after 1886. B three B three. I AI AI and I and I I I inserting but not below. Zero you know after early dearest most important words are graphic inserting. Finished it's that's sort of related to us it's like capability and -- but -- back there for the prostate -- anonymous telling you this is unbelievable but -- the wider variety of pitches and being in the second sentence. By inserting quote and which is subject to beginning with 2000 intend. To the productivity adjustment described in section 1886 B three BI AI -- to. But makes no sense and you understand and out of town without a player that's pretty simple. This is how complex stuff that's too simple this is currently running on this why they hide the legislation it is -- let me just make a statement that I think is irrefutable he would be an act of treason. For any member of congress to vote for this measure. Do you agree or disagree. 6172666. Trees and such a strong -- current -- if you look at the definition of treason I -- is pretty simple there would be it would be a reckless act. It would be a reckless how reckless act regarding the future well being of the country. -- the treason is selling about -- this is not -- this is not silliness 2000 pages of paying 17% of the American economy. And turning it all I -- bureaucrats yeah 1900. 1900 agent 9990. -- and the speaker now."

" The apple OC don't wait a minute don't put me on the side of this built by the way the Republicans today should instantly move. Amendments to have this posted up and on line and no vote taken on a 41990. Pages you know I was talking about how. Are you going to book so this good author of good subject if you get there about a book you go over and it might be a five to 700 page book he really cringe a little bit. You know David McCullough for example of red -- just about all his books in the Truman book is a hefty book and the you know Brooklyn the story the Brooklyn Bridge all that stuff but you look forward to it it's a subject -- but don't 60700. Page book that takes a good long amount of time. To read. And not tell us a story and that's a story -- I'm saying go look at this law we passed fifteen years ago and then find this particular assertion that discern what it means that we change one work if we change a couple of where it's that's right. And you know sometimes change in the word may to shall shall to may or shelter shall not it's just right record but obviously academy of -- and tell the implications -- pretty seriously. So entertainment or information in the form of the story. And again I used in McAuliffe's book on Truman I love the book as a fabulous book but it's a 700 page book I don't read -- overnight. Takes me a few days -- if I -- your monitor on vacation yeah few days if you're on vacation if you use it if you in the midst of your normal life work week and other responsibilities it probably take you two weeks or read a book like my last name right. Treason structure how I feel we got."

" Our offense. -- the -- of acting to overthrow one's government or to harm or kill its conference this bill I think is an attempt to do both -- to. A violation of allegiance to one's sovereign or 21 state guard it clearly meets that well the -- because if if you say as we do an America we have this tendency to say that the people lots sovereign. It's not right Barack Obama Assad is a Los euros and me when I was the speaker it's the people who -- absolute right. And what this is doing -- what they all know. Is that by having a tooth 1990. Page measure that is virtually incomprehensible. Who discern what to do with all that incomprehensible language -- Bureaucrats in new bureaucracies. Set up by these criminals in washing and by the way to ask yourself this question. Who applauds this upon its release right. How could they possibly know that this is worthy of applause. I'm not sure that anybody knows that it's worthy of fury and anger and opposition yes. Or are replies and yet. Two stage staged applause in the app probation of certain group not only a national policy held a press conference yesterday you know that. That Republican members of congress were physically barred from -- I heard that yeah I heard that they were barred from -- And and members of the public were barred by the Titanic. Here it had to do you had to be invite it was invitation only occur the speaker stance right and then you have -- sleepy and -- the -- kind of stuff for this wonderful public moment. I."

" It's. Probably -- apparent in the mirror as. And even notice eighteen. First it's. Eight minutes it's. Close close. Because it's okay."

" Home design tool designed to. Actual side of somebody being turned away from load the press announcement and you and I belong to an organization to the American taxpayer has just. Our don't have to be organized with the charter and bylaws and are they would just right where American taxpayer treason to -- him -- is a number three pop pop pop. Peter enjoy this too but achieve -- trail of a trust or confidence in breach of faith treachery."

" now we're now that we're this is still under recession of the I think John."

" Nice thing I feel now they're not his question I have no. -- usually had to go down used to use the number. CNN so it's. That's happened without the."

" That's that's a member congress being told he cannot go down -- congress snow wasn't able press give us I want again cart's -- union. Member of congress all Stewart ten Nancy Pelosi is announcement -- and enjoy this moment for all Americans show."

" Everything I feel now they're not -- question I have. I usually -- go down here did not. I have alienated so she does that happen without."

" How about that. While this is transparency. This is that this is a wonderful moment for America houses transforming the way wash America's -- us well closets are clean and transparent for the good of the Heathrow buddy Jane just not that simple. The article decided betrayal of trust or confidence breach of faith structuring that's what this village well it is eight an actor trees on the part of the Democrats in congress even think. About voting for some think the content of which is totally unpredictable it's impact except that we know. It will have one positive affects for the Democrats that will be to enhance their power enormously. By making the -- and health care system into something that rebel."

" It's the educational system historically a lot of legislatures in the supposed to Massachusetts as well at least are my hand in my experience of death. The the operating -- would be when in doubt vote no. If you are not convinced that the measure in front of you. Is going to be of benefit to the district can't hopefully to the state to the larger political entity when in doubt. Vote no I I really wonder whether there's anybody in congress and I don't Qaeda and I don't criticize. In a gratuitous way reflects a way I wonder whether there's anybody in congress who will have the time. And make the effort to read this bill 1990 pages before they take a vote upon -- I'm told they will vote on this sometime next week. So which rolled out yesterday from let's say they vote on next Thursday or Friday seven or eight days. Mystified as to how somebody a conscientious. Member of congress in Iraq such members are conscientious member of congress. Could find his or her way to voting for. This bill my two dads I think we take you we are to discern that one paragraph that I read that paragraph there you go back and forth that you need by a team of lawyers Mississippi figure eligible -- and not just a team of -- then you need access to. Honest brokers -- let's say. HHS on Medicaid whatever the department a program that's been modified by what do they say the productivity index and all the rest this stuff. You'd really then wanna have a conversation -- you and I have a conversation about a paragraph for bringing it down guy and say how has this worked in the past what about the problems who would have the reality it's -- wire cast is this working in if not why OK and then he had -- you apply the new language. -- you bring your common sense to be around. It's it's it's not rocket science but it is laborious it's particularly laborious of the -- as 1990. Pages of density and --"

" Reduce your agreed that voting for this measure would be an act of treason by a member of congress 6172666860. -- good morning -- WRK unfolds tonight."

" I graduate DR I'm I'd what are you -- to try and so. You -- co -- from."

" Yes I'm very impressed by it to a doctor Tom Coburn."

" Judge this call over doctor and we position and the issue is that they'll listen you guys they're great idea because he's got a boat or home. For now okay. Both Republican or Democrat -- sort of unofficial -- Wright earlier or it's just a bad. These are more people like doctor Tom are there problems and."

" Yeah good point Mike thank you for the call IGG yes and those who are you that one victory. The shot in my golf now it's are nowhere is that policy. -- yeah I set it -- FC combined loan the powerful and we'll go to JG Laporte broadcast through the."

" Look good cookie in the background it's. Well he does go off like -- food drug dugout and -- tactic EI think important thing is gonna really this because bill."

" There are forty members of congress apparently who want to object not necessarily vote against it because of -- they -- objective moved to have the the language Jim looked at some changes -- language inserted that would make it very very clear that taxpayer money would not be supporting all subsidized since. Health care policies that would provide abortion coverage we have -- good morning -- those Democrats who -- who have been called assault by the Democrats all the fighting is Democrats. --"

" porno addressed such well what's so the first second jewel if you don't plug I don't dispute with George Bush upset the country. Okay over the last eight years when he invaded our Iraq. You know -- that you worked for or against it. I was just yet but it was ratio which fact well ashen -- government. -- were elected they took over the house -- there at the white. Taught how do you look yourself in the mirror as a Democrat. You know when it went basically they didn't. If they try to socialize the entire country."

" Well I'll -- I'll just do it through what Todd said a moment ago they're the of the fight on this is among and between Democrats they're a lot of Democrats who are not. Going to vote for this government they don't like the abortion issue they're Democrats who don't like the absence of clarity on immigration. That Democrats don't like the public option so it's not a year it's not a -- made up of just exclusively Nancy Pelosi folks. It to an absolutely allowed just a leadership -- majority of -- are bunch of whacko irresponsible treason commanders. 6172666860. Thomas -- 680 WRKO."

" Everyone -- boy he just families who really good attitude weird -- street shouldn't hay Adams 680. W Ontario hi I'm Scott -- and invite you -- treasure hunt bright people rumor. Broadcasting from a new Mellon's world headquarters building McFerrin storm."

" It is WR -- saw today. Friday's morning with a seventy degree day maybe coming your way tomorrow as we celebrate Halloween. -- I wonder if how many pages of the 1990. Page health care bill ya have to do with the time changes and hard by the fact how much the union should get will find out sometime and then when the the -- you -- pershing had to leave the hospital after. At 11 o'clock central time instead of what are all. Yeah it's up and it's something argue about this this bill is a huge huge effort to that's underway on -- I'm just fascinated by the whole. -- notion of pushing this rock up -- this political rock uphill. In the face of general satisfaction for the American public. -- He is a liar in chief half a half. Well I just like to focus of this medical device what does everybody out the in their right mind think. That if we impose of the federal government imposes a tax of 25% -- the number might be. On for example hot stands. Hip replacements. Whatever they put into body now that actually not only prolong -- improves the quality of your life. And you produce some from our tempo has yet that's probably why we'll look what the government have any incentive to prolong your life. -- And it's part of the shared costs don't rule out. We know each other that heart stent which continues tax that goes along we'll continue to read about an experience and some two ways of some directives have been directed them with the economic misery that south this. And people say with a straight face that this bill's going to help that. Is gonna -- they are all the situation disgusting. Not down wires they all know this will be destructive that'll cost a ton of money. They know that the one trillion dollar figure is ally in terms of its cost and they're deliberately trying to trick you into thinking at -- trillion dollars they're so members of congress who pledged to read this bill before they vote on all my interest in the CN -- also interest as CC there's -- dynamic there aren't they -- build a vote on -- till the end of the century. Haas 2000 pages of inter -- Just don't really difficult it is our at a draft thank you legally exact it is that's what it is it's league which are bending and then dozens hundreds probably statutes. To it it isn't seeing -- the frustration there's no opportunity in front of the American people right now that was similar to the opportunity that was presented an artist. -- Other -- won't ever happen again that well they will never allow that again it'll it will happen but the problem is it's not going to happen between now. And next they're gonna protest at people must rise up a good -- is an act of treason if any member congress votes for this yes or no 617. 2666860."

" Glenn good morning your NW RKO."

" Purgatory. -- this historic costs cost. I have read every piece of the legislation every word. I have found that this action should be. Clarity. In 1933. It's perfectly totally it totally what -- wrong -- fuel costs due to a lot of understand. -- capital chanting what do old."

" Can you explain themselves. It is very clear view okay. You -- won't get killed well you'll you'll be glad. -- guess all Virginia and in fact what feels like any red channel -- What do you not I guess."

" This all is becoming -- us I think we're getting."

" You ladies and gentlemen. --"

" In this situation the blue pill that works better than not we're not up and coming --"

" Do you agree would be actor trees and vote for this measure yes or no simple question also do you think it's fair for congress to ask us. To go along and support them in passing something that they have have not read end. Have to take on faith through regarding what the contents as an end this is a nice way for Iran to see Iran."

" He -- can do many many thanks so with got a couple questions pending I wanna add to -- For those people who are frustrated and dissatisfied with American need health care system -- there liberal progressive whatever may -- believe in single Payer. Can you say with a straight face can anyone say illustrate -- and Collison explain to us. How this bill is going to improve things. 1990. Pages -- if they don't know right now well that's a fear thing nobody really knows what the -- in the 1990 pages -- we have speaker Pelosi in this studio she doesn't know it's -- it is well this and talking points should have some general familiarity with concepts other than that. Not specifics this is a mad house scramble right now -- between now once sometime next week Thursday or Friday probably. Before congress stops to vote on this thing nobody will be able to offer intelligent rational analysis I'm dying to see the talk shows. This Sunday morning they usually start to do this taping when Thursday nights and Fridays right. This bill comes out how the hell do they have an intelligent rational conversation and inform the American people of what's in it a what's not in it. Before voters cast this so I I wanna hear from the people who think that. Speaker Pelosi is done an admirable job -- and what this bill is going to specifically do I -- I'm a taxpayer I'm one of the ones who continues to pay extraordinary sums of money to the federal government and a half the people don't pay -- thanks so while I'm on the hook and I've got a little while mama little agitated about it."

" Well -- let's extended into a broader question to and that is if you are one of the suckers. Who are conned into voting for open changed. How do you feel about it now 6172666860. Betty good morning your NW RJR hi Betty."

" Hello Betty."

" Ted good morning you're on -- hang on --"

" My general and Ali -- But -- I just try it grew -- pot and I believe this is a treasonous act to vote for this package. And I'll say this -- on the airwaves I think in this way the Honduran army had to defend entry public and move against its. Rogue dictator. The US military needs to move against this -- party the Democrat party -- trees in this movement. But he the second."

" I think that's fair the Democrats are there -- all of this is about designing a system. Within which they have perpetual power because all the special interest voters think are tired of bribes and they -- he called for the united states army. To go in and occupy the capital yeah value in the same why you think you should be the National Guard. -- point. -- others emergence my point is each reviewer craze there's a marriage absolutely almighty god almighty you don't think there's an emergency emergency Burleigh. Stupidity. Is not an emergency this nation has been way you want it to you how did you idolize that all of that is information -- horrific piece of legislation -- don't know the state is okay -- what part of it has been overstated. Worst worst case yeah we end up with a healthcare system like -- in the UK you and I have been -- people who it's not that that's an admirable and something big mirror. Then health care doesn't really say is gonna be a motivation for Democrats want to shove through some things. That nobody knows what the content is not what what do you think the motivation this. -- like to try to get with the version of health care reform done. -- Trees and no it doesn't you don't that's because I like our John Street take although -- National Guard and actually don't real reason. They want single Payer is because single -- is the first step. Two -- fully socialized system that they control they want more people in unions. Beholden to them that's all this is a vote -- if ever a few more people can get health care if the fuel there -- crazy liberal ideals get medal on the way that's five flat it's election was held two days. What do you think would happen. Don't you think I think Republicans would have the -- no results would be reversed a pretty damn close you know. It has so today again you overstate the case and I real laid eyes on the Iditarod tell -- understating NIC abuse isn't that there is no way to fully communicate. How horrific. The idea is that our political system's gotten to a point where these people have no interest in what's best for the country. Well there after it raw political down through the -- let let me take you -- premise at face value -- thereafter rob political power guys will do anything to hold onto it and retain it. Forever and ever and have the American people -- not that gullible they can did gullible they -- that they are that -- informed and disinterested. That amazing things can be pulled over their eyes."

" He is an amazing -- and from the euphoria. And celebration of Barack Obama's inauguration in late January the American people have said already. We have seen enough we've heard enough we have had enough. And the story and you'll see that in elections next week in Virginia. Possibly in New Jersey. You're going to see changes. Democrats will lose seats is a prediction a year in advance Democrats will lose seats in congress and the Senate next year. In Obama's presidency your popularity is now hovering. Right around 50% sure it's not a low of 3435. The George Bush had but he -- he is a difficulty this guy in less than he had his -- enough far more than he can chew."

" End the -- nodding in an ally washes off the roads should really until we're not in an election cycle. -- during election cycle all the big money comes out to lie to the American people on misrepresent everything out and then the media goes into its full flourish of how to con Americans into doing the wrong thing well those are what Deval Patrick I'm not sure that Americans have been condor right now don't like Americans can use our in the town hall meetings. You see you seated here in these phone calls. We get calls not just from. You know right wing -- get in trouble -- it's a left wing Louise we get a lot of calls from sensible people Lewis and while I voted for this guy but this is and when I -- you start off hours and -- change I thought we were getting any -- listening to us is of the elite in terms of their understanding about what's going on in our country in their awareness about these issues you go out on the street and ask the average person. About the health care bill math and they'll say things like -- in that pass already or. -- when do we get our free health care they don't know what's going on in terms of the what's being manipulated and why it's being manipulated. Most people don't understand the relationship between unions and Democrats which is is a defining political force in our country today. And people aren't even aware of it now thanks they -- I'm not I'm not so assure our listeners are aware anywhere near the potent force that you that you suggest though it's drill now you can't so overstated. 6172666866. You also can't overstate its destructive influences. Let's talk about 1990. Pages of unread. New health care law are you for order against it do you agree -- would be an actor treason for a member of congress to vote for. Good we have every right act we have frank on the -- hey -- why Thomas taught me."

" Good morning Paula -- question for both but yet I am actually yesterday questioned thought and I believe that's Louis street in this because. Congress any member of the Carter the good vote on this bill without really Norton that then. -- are committing an act of treason that they're they're you know not fulfilling their responsibility to the citizens of this country. But my bigger question is the best. First of all not about healthcare. Dot com its its really -- about taking over another major segment of our economy and that the normal to blow the medical industry know what it out about it and because it really Obama want to -- here -- those 37 million or whoever does the neat thing don't have health here's the really wanna. Then -- can do to help a lot cheaper without affecting the rest of the country. He could put all his goal to be given free cell phones to on on healthcare all of their cellphones. Okay but based on the bigger question as I understand that. Even with 1900 some odd pages. This bill has all kind of caveat. They're referred to will be decided on -- determined by the secretary you understand I gonna be another's are -- and again. As congress not realize that all these borrowers are usurping all of which typically in should be the legislative branch responsibility in this country."

" You do you think she's a season our experience congressman would figure out right away that this. Nullify his congressional Powell. To speak and speak in a congressional problem the most powerful are influential members of congress. Will be those who go into the speaker's office -- Colin -- message over the next several days and say hey by the way don't count on my vote until I have a chance to read it. If if a dozen members a dozen members say that to her over the next read five days. You've got a big big dynamic I think that the trouble is though that there are not interested in policy issues they're interested in politics. And in terms of the politics of the Democrats. Their agenda is they have to pass a health care bill. It becomes to them. As a general body more important to pass whatever the pieces of paper contained. Then it worry about what those -- the implication -- and he tells are well -- that will be true for some time but it won't be true for all and I'm not even sure if it's true for many time on a lot of people down there."

" This is so huge this has said should be directed an immediate impact on American taxpayers and the constituents. And so win they have heard about the town hall experiences of the guys they sit next to in the chamber or they had -- town hall experience. And people that -- to that those town hall said hey. I wanna be informed that I wanna make sure you mister congressman my congressman before you cast a vote on this you understand my concern. On -- whether it's immigration whether it's on public option whether it's on abortion. You -- what this is gonna do by the way the states you see the financial issue that every state is going through. This expands pretty dramatically Medicaid. Medicaid is H cost sharing arrangement but this is a huge car shipped to states I don't know how any governor even the most slow the world's. Led by the most Liberal Democrats are gonna be happy with this."

" Bob good morning your WR --"

" Good morning -- do agree Bob what's up just -- you walked on by well. -- back what do we -- that -- bill. You know. 900 billion it's the interest is gonna be -- one point two which really don't ever. That was eight that was voted on. Before anybody even had a chance to read it out and Obama that the other day. I -- is based on TV which really Serbia. He said the other day I will not send troops additional troops in Afghanistan. Forrest -- research and and yet they wont well they won't -- Obama's stimulus. What I they're reading it it felt like they're probably do something that would help -- not everyone like is that. But a lot of walled off fully understand what it's gonna do to this country. And yet it's still gonna vote -- it because they've you know it's a global thing to do all all ordinary."

" All right thank you for the call Bob 6172666860. Question for you. Would it be an act of treason for any member congress to vote for this monstrosity. Of -- health care measure."

" Your one stop shop for them."

" Okay our country's Social Security team. And then Medicare. And now universal quality of --"

" It's very interesting that that's. It's supposed to be IA had."

" Positive proposition for this. Medicare Medicaid Social Security are all running huge deficits that threaten to crush the financial viability of our country. And this is how they promote their their new plant it can be another one of those so maybe this some day can be 37 trillion dollars in debt like. Medicare is and I know I react in two ways when I hear about those things in many ways -- some of these things with a good."

" Tomorrow for our -- success really the progress that was made as a country. And in some of that is attributable to the efforts the investments the innovation the discoveries. Of medical research and science and some of it is due to Medicare I think you and I might differ on that that the extension of basic healthcare. To elderly and impoverished Americans it was probably a good thing the fact of the matter is. The demographics have changed dramatically congress. Is hesitant. Or even -- constantly refuses to keep up for that and you have a something that's gotta -- one broke those thirty is going broke Medicaid is going broke. Medicare is going."

" It's a heart Medicare is a horrible plan obviously people like it whenever you give people something for free -- they get happy offer. All right but it's not sustainable. We -- 37 trillion dollars that where is that money gonna come from to pay off what Medicare rose and by the way. This health care plan says it's finding itself by cutting Medicare. 500 before either 400 billion a 500 billion. Out of Medicare and you and I've described it as soon as we saw that as soon as we heard it would described as hogwash to each other into look to our audience. -- complete. How washed so about one half. Of the alleged costs. One half. Is fiction. It's a complete fiction yes he would never buys this on the street you would do you would check yourself into a mental health clinic if you felt yourself susceptible to the start by hustle. But is the notion that somehow -- congress is gonna say with a straight face we can squeeze four to 500 billion out of Medicare. -- they screwed the providers. Already. Already know they can't go back advises that just like they tried legislation last week to increase the payments to. Provider so -- mam by the way the house plan calls for a five point 4% increase in taxes. On people making over a million dollars a year how do you -- or individuals making over 500 couples -- over a million how do you feel about higher taxes even for the rich. As a Tom pointed out to me or chatting off the air. This five point 4% increase would be coupled with. A 4% increase when the bush tax cuts and this year -- talking almost a 10% increase to hunt people -- or 500 grand a year. Now that may seem like you you don't care what happens to them but I don't feel that way about it now I don't either rhino are nowhere is supposed to who not feel any any pain. Our sympathy for those who make that type of money but for the most by people who make that type of money to were very very -- skillful. There were very industrious. And they generally are creating economic activity and -- they're they're using our money to make investments to. Put money back in the pockets of other people -- To build homes to buy stocks which is money in the capital in the hands of business and -- yeah I'll say it's a collar."

" Or sometimes and another in other areas other topics that we talk about seem to one to develop a policy based upon resentment envy -- jealousy that's not -- that should not be the foundation of any. Policy he in the United States of America the hope eventually United States of America. Was you free to succeed. On you Rome and you don't have to be a rocket scientist don't have to go to MIT. And have the 34 degrees you know hundreds of people I know hundreds of people. Who work with big hands they have little restaurants some pizza shops or whatever. And they by every definition wealthy they should not be punished this year should not be an excessive and are exorbitant. Tax rate imposed upon them because maybe they make 500000 the F. He Erin know it sounds like a lot of money out like to make that kind of money so what everybody but. I don't begrudge somebody who does make it."

" 6172666860. They love the class warfare by the way barring -- do with us later this hour -- talk to her about this."

" Why there aren't doing quite yeah hundred. Nothing different to what we import -- I guess I thought -- got a powerful that is beyond me to do judicial watch the case against Barack. Twice these people have gone and the -- it by our administration has said that. That up statement information act or the privacy act did not apply to bam in partisans -- I don't know why is."

" Well what's the scariest part of it for you do thank."

" Albeit kicking -- the health care -- for our Freedom of Information Act doesn't apply to more."

Public option would be part of this legislation and -- comes in yesterday as. The non robust public option in what was that all bait and switch to prepare people for the war so that to minimize reaction."

We've been able to really. -- are built there's concern that the public and we're gonna move more slowly. I mean people didn't loyalists and does have to understand. This is almost too. Thousand pages long a scary thing even know what in this thing we don't know who wrote it.

Well they will always grow. They will always be irresponsible expanded whether anybody -- about how you're gonna pay forming -- gonna end up in the situation we're in now. Were there and you're actually try to sell this new healthcare plan by saying it'll be like who would like Medicare Medicare is crushing us financially. And nobody talks about it and nobody cares about trying to figure out how it's gonna be paid for B."

" As there's no incentive. To do the right thing when you need more than anything else on all those programs is by how does in common sense that it just the program to the new realities fewer births. Longer life that's never expands although we like as if they've got a jump really high amid -- just a contribution so that it can be on a sustainable. Footing it's fairly easily fix except each side. He games it terribly for political purpose and that he'd -- nature of these programs they're always going to be game you can't create them without creating an explosion. That's gonna destroy the country and that's."
