Okay, it just happens to be Saturday afternoon January the 18th 2014 Can you dig that? I can't wait till the end of January either. How about that? Well? We're like we were talking about right just before we're going to get a second polar vortex That is coming next week polar bear. How lovely How lovely that is that well can't wait I They don't project any nor Easter's or blizzards, which is what concerns me the most I mean, I can always deal with the cold by bundling up wearing layers but shoveling a lot of snow and Scrape an ice off my car and and you know spreading the damn rock salt. Yeah, that's extra work that I Can avoid if it if we don't have a blizzard. It's just extra trouble Oh, I got news for you. I think it was 1904 or five summers around there New York had a gigantic blizzard. I Believe at the end of March Yeah, that's true. Uh, you know went there old man went to doesn't leave Quite so easily.  I know that well with this global warming.  They're attributing the polar vortex to that to climate change Well We do get climate change every what 15,000 years or something. I mean there was an ice age Which covered the whole Midwest down to Texas and et cetera at one time in the United States Well, they say if the Gulf Stream Should ever stop flowing Europe would be plunged into a nice age because of its Who's it lauded that latitude longitude its position on the globe Yeah, everybody should watch that movie called ice Ice ice, baby ice Period When the whole United States was frozen over and et cetera So then we got a very interesting then everybody's got to live like the Eskimos Yeah, you have to eat a hundred percent protein diet and fat. Well, you know, well, what are you gonna grow? It's a good question. You know what happens to a lot of that cattle and things out West When they have their blizzards and stuff It freeze today All livestock all crops Anyway Welcome everyone to Progressive discussions. I am your host James P. Madonna and I will formally pipe aboard my co-host and mentor Award what? I'll get to that pipe him aboard our liberal progressive or progressive liberal Starship censored the Starship censored Which is the name of the newspaper? I'm sorry the name of the newsletter that he founded in 1977 My authentic Bosun's whistle are welcome aboard the one and only the Reverend Dr. William J. Eisenman Republicans to walk the plank Yeah, they all deserve it. They all deserve to walk the plank every one of them Sharkbait instead of Republican party.  They do those part of partying. That's why they're like that. They're literally yeah, you know That's what they do. They they they don't work they repeal and obstruct and They they barely show up at the Capitol building and they get paid a lot of money and tax dollars not counting perks and all the freebies they get and All the all the bribes they take, you know, and they call the poor lazy they don't even pay for the coffee and pastries and and Whatever rolls muffins that that gets sent to the White House when they're there they think you know everything is free for them Well, why do you think that they have to? call the poor people a Entitlement people You know when it's not even an entitlement boy. They are the ones who are getting the entitlement right now I don't know if you if you saw that new banner I put up on the progressive discussions Facebook group, but it mentions all the different examples That's happening today that are considered corporate welfare and you will see that the the lazy Moochers and the people collecting entitlements is definitely not America's poor that's correct It's the people that are pointing their fingers and and bashing the poor, which is the the one The one Subject topic that I'm going to speak of before we go to our readings. I have only one But it's interesting it's really Not a week goes by where a Right-winger doesn't send my blood pressure through the roof. All right. Here we go. Oh I didn't finish my introduction. We're coming to you from the newsletter-sensitive research center in northeastern, New Jersey And yes, it's freezing out I Republican senator David Vitter Capital VI TT er from Louisiana Okay, who did bad things? Okay. He is pushing for a law where It to make it mandatory he wants to make it mandatory that all food stamp recipients collecting snap benefits must must present a photo ID to use their Snap to use their food stamps, which is actually family's first card with a magnetic strip So you have to he wants people to show a photo ID Digital photo ID and take drug tests That's even worse than the photo ID and Take a drug test because all prevent a lot of people from going and getting help That's what it's all about.    Well, how come they're always there? How come the little guys?  That's great That's great. It's like a like a diversion Well, it's like the Geico commercial smoke screens the oldest trick in the book What's the oldest trick in the book? look over there and He got in the right hand tells you to look over there to left hands doing something else picking your pocket this direction The oldest trick in the book Magicians know it's very well. Well, they're also using the Nazi Germany a technique of telling the same lie over and over. Well, yeah, people believe it after a while They believe it, but they complain profusely on line People belly egg even even people from red states are complaining But there has to be enough of the other nick-n-poops that are voting re-electing and voting these scoundrels in obviously Because Christy looks like a very gentle big berry. I I like him Oh, yeah, my mother says he looks like a cuddly big fat teddy bear Or or as one person said to me years ago about George Bush, I trust him No, brother George W. Bush.  Oh, I think Sarah Palin is cute. I'm gonna vote for McCain and Palin Cool. Oh, she's cute that well, that's something a bartender would say, you know But supposed to vote for a person who has the policies that agree with you Well, it is your election. It is your vote. Why can't it be your policies? Does it have to be a person? You know what's interesting When when the little guy when the poor in the middle class vote two-party system Let's say let's say they vote for a Democrat because they're smart enough to realize that the Democrat is The lesser of the two evils and they will receive a few crumbs Whereas with the Republican they will receive absolutely nothing. This is what my grandfather used to say when I was a kid And he was right, you know, that's why the Democrats are the lesser of the two evils But the both parties are still corporatists in the two-party system, but okay, it's the lesser of the two evils when a poor American votes Democrat But it's it's never the lesser of two evils when a wealthy Republican votes Republican because they always come out smelling like a rose when they vote Republican if they're rich Well, it's not only the richness so that it's never the lesser of the two evils for for a right way public in party Has Religion but they know nothing but they know nothing about the Bible. That's correct But that doesn't hinder them does it and that doesn't hinder or mr. Joel Mr. Popovich Billy Graham One and two Peter pop off Pat Roberts and Pat Roberts and they have their legions of followers Never hinder Jerry foulel and that send them money That's correct. These people don't do not really know the Bible that well either That's great but they get away with it don't they because there is in America this thing about Religion in other words most people think that an atheist cannot be moral Because to be moral mm-hmm.  You can be religious too.  That's another Prosperity for themselves. That's another aspect of these Evangelists that people are attracted to is the fact that they talk about God want you to be wealthy Want you to get rich and people just love to hear that So they're in other words. They're telling people what they want to hear not what they should be hearing and what they should be learning because the The truth is a very bitter pill to swallow For the exactly the average person for everybody The truth is a harmful thing if you're doing bad Why would you want to know the truth? If you're doing bad if somebody you've set up a bad society So if somebody a bit bad businesses if somebody's corrupt And they're immoral and there are there a crook They don't want to they don't want to be exposed to the world as such Just look at the Bible and see what they did to all the the prophets of old When they came in telling them you're doing wrong. You're doing wrong. God don't like what you're doing Get me out of here. You're talking about the monarchies of the past talking about people No, not people people and people running the country that are part of the royal family, so to speak poor Don't quote royal family. Well back then they had tried you had like like King Herod of ancient Wait for this thing the pain Herod only worked under the Romans He was not a king in that sense that he was a king. He was a puppet That's right. I'm talking about in the past. You had mostly Monarchies of different sorts from Nimrod from the first King from Nimrod To a modern civilization in between all for for thousands of years hundreds of years you had Monarchies Yeah, which are totalitarian dictatorship Except in Scandinavia That woman's name. I already know the Vikings in Scandinavia now now now the Queen over there They got a Queen in Scandinavia or in Denmark or whatever the hell it is You know, she's kind of Denmark I know King Oscar on the sardine can King Oscars on the sardine can King Oscar sardines I don't know about any other monarchy all I hear all I see online are pictures of Elizabeth the Seconds, right? Yeah, but her too. I mean she's she's in between two But the King's and Queens in most places Unless they're dictators They don't have much power But they used to have all these all the power. Oh, yeah, every war A one back then was won by such-and-such a king. No, it was one one by your foot soldiers The grunts But the history books have it King so-and-so won the war. How such-and-such? There are definitely people today that fit that description who Succeed off the blood sweat and tears of others and take all the credit for it Would you say that Bill Gates fell into that? Population yeah, yeah now he wants to he wants to do something good and and help the world Through Monsanto with with vaccines and other things. Yeah, it seems to have a deal with Monsanto You see that sign the guy was holding up yesterday on Facebook Monsanto does not want to feed the world Monsanto wants to control they want to control They want to control the food supply of the world They do not want to feed the world and Nestle's the scumbag CEO of Nestle's wants to control the world's drinking water Supplies by buying up all the aquifers California's in a huge Yeah, well, that's how the forest fires start Well actually we started by a couple of guys with a campfire Now speaking of California there seems to be a problem with the legal Growers of medicinal marijuana and the illegal growers Of course the legal growers have a permit on a signpost They have they have those display permits now. This is what for medical use only See this is what the sheriff of that county was saying it's it becomes very tricky to Tell the difference of who should be raided and busted and And that's because there's a federal law against yeah, in other words is local and then there's federal Because Colorado now it's legal Which makes it easy Except when it goes against the federal law And what federal law takes precedence over state law So let me guess the feds are still Backwards in thinking that marijuana should remain illegal. So we yes, they should still carry on that that Failure of the war on drugs and we're and of course prostitution should be illegal in the federal eyes and Did you see that because that's it?  I know but if they get power in states and et cetera or in the federal government Then that it is there say that goes into the law You see what Alec does Why I didn't write any of them stinking laws. Why don't I like did why don't people in America wake up and get involved? Go to the town meetings. Why if we knew the answer, but I go to the town meetings and in in in massive amounts and and Holler over there. Did you see that statement that judge? Grace Nancy great Nancy Grace judge Nancy Grace made about marijuana that leads to violent behavior. I never heard that What I know about marijuana and some of the people have been on it for years and years is that they go sit in the corner somewhere And they mellow out they are just even tourists as they listen to a Jimi Hendrix CD, though, they'll sit in the corner and Watch their hand for hours now. It's alcoholism and exactly and Hardcore drug abuse violence. Yeah, but not not marijuana. She's talking out of her fat-ass Talking talking points that you're given to her by some right wing nut. Well, she's a right-wing nut, too What do you expect?  What's your name? Elizabeth I got a mixed up with hustle out there. Yeah, I was a hassle back is ranting about something about Men are not Traditional men anymore. They're wussies and women are lesbians or women are the feminists She's knocking the she's knocking the feminists and she's knocking men today because men are not men anymore They have been feminized Now what does she want she wants like why did her wants to be drawn around by the hair into his cave and raped My friend with ferocity Ferocity I thought she I always thought she was like because she acted she has such a snippy Mouth on her such a rude, you know sharp tongue on that when she was on the view I thought she was a feminist, but it turns out she's really not Not at all Well, I don't like these traditional stereotypical roles. That's what they are they you know because the old time Roles for men were unfair because men had all the responsibilities for everything on their shoulders Yeah, I think it's very unfair Well all the point is you know Once we move from the land went to the big city to get a job We lost our freedom true So today we have Private industry right Providing us with survival jobs Because we have no security anymore in the lane so I Think it's about time in America To have an annual income and do away with all these snap Wicked all these programs. Yeah, and we provide someone and replace with what with a guaranteed annual income They can handle these things I don't like the I don't like going on salary because then a company can make you work long hours What's the hell are you talking about a country company? I'm talking about the federal government Providing an annual income to whom Everyone that deserves it in America right now the last The last communism the last thing I saw up on Facebook The do away with poverty in America was 175 billion dollars The last figures I saw was 135 billion It is money well spent My friend all you do is to eradicate Poverty Which includes homelessness is you simply And all corporate welfare number one you trim the military the defense budget you take all the the bloat and the waste out of it and How do you direct and you? You tax the rich you you shift the burden from the middle class like back to the rich You still have not provided for that poor person In doing all that well you've got the money for it now you want to you want to end the programs But you know what why I need programs do a lot of good when they're why do we need them if you are now a a Justified how well with your security how well is this annual the so-called annual income? You're talking about is the pay going to be enough to eliminate snap and food stamps and everything else And wake one country. I'm not sure which it is Switzerland Wants it to be thirty thousand dollars. I Don't know if that's that's not enough in the United States to pay for everything. Maybe it's not we can just those figures The point is that it obviously has to be well above the poverty line Well the poverty line today is what twenty twenty one or twenty two thousand four Family four family Four oh a family of four. That's great. So what did what are they saying? If so, what about a single person a single person making twenty one or twenty two thousand is considered okay? I don't think so. That's great. Where are you gonna live? Don't you worry about those things those are things are not those things are not figured with the rents With the rents are in this area are like at least a thousand dollars first 1400 1600 one thousand you're back in a day the stone age for a one bed. Let's say a one bedroom The point is they don't include those things in those figures Okay, how do you accurately come up with a big you can't That's why people stay in poverty When they're on snap or when they're on welfare or etc. Because there's never enough provided Give a few crumbs like my grandfather said you get a few crumbs, right? Just enough to keep your nostrils above the water level. That's right That's why if you had a guaranteed annual income, you could provide those things for yourself if self-sufficient if the figure if the amount is is Sufficiently accurate can be whatever they you know what Congress decide ain't gonna work You got to have the programs for you know you got to have the programs for the poor. They are keeping people poor You're throwing this. I'm making people wealthy. You're throwing this figure at me. That's that's not enough money I'm sorry. I just said that the Congress will decide what figure it is not they're gonna decide Yeah, well, hopefully I better hope the Congress is I hope the Democrats take back the Congress when this happens Well, obviously, but who do you think that that makes the laws in this country? You don't make the laws the Republican The Republicans won't give you any anything Fine zero that doesn't stop the program That doesn't cease the thinking and putting it into action That's because we still have a Democrat majority Senate and Obama in the White House actually there are only 53 Democrats in the Senate and two independent Okay, which caucus with the Democrats But there are 45 see Bernie Sanders is one of them Bernie Sanders is one there are 45 Republicans oh that many and When we have the election, oh boy Let me guess all the the nitwits the red state nitwits voted them into well somebody did and Obviously in New Jersey a lot of Democrats voted for the cuddly bear. I Am not a bully.  I mean when Giuliani croaks on his tombstone will be Mr. 9-1-1 Yeah Okay, I mean they they they still They're still missing Hurricane Sandy relief money. That's correct and and some of the money of some of it the money is going to cronies of Mr. Christie and his administration Yeah, he didn't really he only helped the businesses on the boardwalk on the Jersey Shore He did not have those stuff Yeah, photo ops, so he didn't help the people who lost their homes did not receive any help And the last time I heard him what he said was well You have to fill out those forms and then you have to wait They've been waiting over a year. Where do you live in a treehouse while you're waiting?  That's correct collect and What was the purpose of it though a another Christie look good another company underbid that They were not accepted because you know why why because Christie and family were not in that commercial Christie see Christie had a look really he had a look good the commercial had to be PR a political thing That's what happened. Yeah, he Part of the commercial it worked had Chris Christie on the beach saying I'll feel your pain. No, he didn't say I'll feel all right, but he made it. He made it He says we're stronger than the storm hugged people You're not stronger than a storm mother nature will take you out as soon as you think you're stronger than a storm and Gary Knowles said that's the tip of the iceberg Sandy is only the tip of the iceberg. We may yeah was only tropical storm with no we with climate change We're going to receive worse But the republicans don't believe in climate when when was the last time I Don't pay attention to what they with their perception of life is because if they can't back it up with facts I don't believe them. What if they can back it up with power the When was the last time you heard thunder in the middle of the night? I did the other day in January I heard it last night. Was it last night? I heard thunder last night. You must have been sleeping. I Didn't get much sleep last night Well, I usually don't get that much sleep, but I mean I hear thunder and the winter time I heard it either last night or a day or two ago Okay Perception that can't be proven which fact is worthless That's all. Oh, yeah, if you have the power to make that statement Hey, and the megaphone to make that for CEO if a CEO is spouting nonsense He's the CEO of the corporation, but he's still spouting nonsense.  Like what you hear on Fox News What what the people on Fox News talk about you're ain't cold. There's you're a hassle bags There's bigger fish to fry rush Limbaugh statements Well, yeah, that's Russia Limbaugh said the other day according to the Daily Coast That when Florence Thomas and Anita Hill had their little bar, Ruha He knew Clarence Thomas was truthful Because of his character Not because he was a Republican conservative character Oh, just he didn't have to have any facts just for that reason just for that reason. That's correct And this is why people in red states vote for a Republican and never a Democrat because they are Republicans are not baby killers They're not they can't prove anything that's in their heads Hey, what kind of a bizarro world are we living in?  I don't know. They're here. They're here. I don't want you pamphlet. We got we got In New Jersey we got money going. Oh Throughout the country we have money going to faith-based initiatives Now what about the taxpayers in America that are not of that faith? They're not represented Obviously why they don't get their way now one penny should go towards any religious Organization or what it is But I don't thank you George there But there are but that religion is a cult that they're talking about Everyone is a cult as far as Christianity is concerned if it is not biblical Well, hey, if they're giving billions in free money to two billionaires The millionaires and billionaires if they're giving free welfare to them, then I guess what what's another small fortune for a cult? Yeah, but they earned all that money. Why do you keep on saying you saw you're playing devil's advocate all the time Why are you giving them a? Little a little slack that they don't deserve. Well, that's what they say who cares what they perceive and what they say Why do you keep on playing devil's advocate?  Mr. What facts the Aussie with facts My name isn't DBS.  I'm not debating you. What is it that debate? You keep on saying they got power. They got power perspective Only that that that can be proven how do you counter that that can be proven? How do you counter that they earn their money? They know they don't they didn't earn their money. That's just you saying something What does that mean? What about them? What about what they say exactly? It's their word against my work I guess what but guess what nine times out of ten the progressive word is based with fact and backed up. Where's the power? Where's the power?  That's the other way around You got your hand up Satan's puppet. I mean Satan's buttons using you Because I'm seeing these ideas, but I'm thinking we're logic our garbage. I'm thinking no, they're not Yes, they are if the progressive can back it up with proof and Scientific proof and and not just theory and the Republican backs it up with because we say so Because we perceive this where you're the one that's not make it. Where is this backup coming from? What on Facebook? No nine times out of ten. Well, I'll give you an example when Joe Biden and Barack Obama debated Mitt Romney and And the other the puppet Muppet face Paul Ryan Paul Ryan they came up with a lot of factual Evidence when Barbara Bruno the debate of Chris Christie twice she came up with a lot of factual evidence Who saw a lot of it who saw the debates? I Don't know besides me. I don't know exactly. I don't know who watched exactly So who had the power? There's a good chance a lot of people didn't watch the debates. They didn't who had the power It's all about power the power who has the bigger megaphone Why do you think Roger Ailes? No, what do you want to do? What do you intend on doing about it? You don't want you don't want to protest. You don't want a boycott. What do you want to do? Protests, you don't want a war. You don't want a civil war. Protests. What do you want to do worker tailed? with Occupy Wall Street Of course, they were blocking traffic and they were harassing people on all they weren't why are you blaming them? You were blaming them they were in the right. What were they doing as they were doing nothing They were getting hide or hanging out You've just said that that's their right to do that well in private peaceful protesting is Not bothering anybody, but they claim They claim that that police men spray the the pepper they were peaceful. Come on You got ideas that are idealistic They don't happen in the real world Well, then there's only way there's only one way to deal with unfairness and corruption and People that say I have the money. Therefore. I make up the rules. Yes There's only one way to deal with that And that's to cut the tumor out manually with a scalpel. How do you do it? You get people to get her and learn that they form a militia learn how to use an AK-47 What is your answer then? What is your solution? Well, if you go, you know, I'm all ears.  There is no solution. Okay.     It ain't here anymore So that world is gone so because of money because of money Then a person that has the money can say I could be unfair if I want and We are going to run a Biased crony type Government citizens united said that the corporations money is speech So the more money I have the more speech I get That sounds like you get that sounds like a spoiled child that doesn't want to share his toys taken a tantrum That's the country you're in All right, you get garbage. I control the media because They have the money and they pay people off and they're in bed with the corporate corporates. That's great. And That's it. Yeah, that's how as far as I know liberals regressives whatever you want to call them Don't they try to fight this conservative Domination of the airways. Yeah And I believe as far as I can tell There was a station here in New Jersey a liberal station Way up, but the right of the dial called WWRL. I Remember it is off the air That's I can tell it now is Espanyol It has always been like that liberal stations. You just can't make it against a conservative onslaught Just oh, you know what you're debate you debate me eat up a lot of time. What time is it?  Well, you know what?   I'm not I refuse to be a passive, but the answers we have now are inadequate I Suggest you go to the first reading it's getting late. Why? Readings we have readings so Well, it means you got that means you're gonna have double the readings next time so You'll never get through them. I'm not worried about getting through them If you got a subject that is important You beat it to death No, because the you don't happen to like the topic of the week happens to be Chris Christie's bridgegate Really not I mean not we didn't have no topic yet on National news it's been about the 20 people they got that will be subpoenaed is The latest I've heard it's a deal. Huh big deal should be in it for what nobody knows anything yet. I Find it fascinating. I find it fascinating to wait until things develop Well, yes, you don't go off half cocked on things Don't you have a Underlying wish that Christie. No, I don't I don't need to think about Christie Why would I worry and think about Christie because you're not a person who's Has to receive 140 dollars a month the poor poor souls on welfare and getting a few Welfare is a federal thing, correct? 140 a month has nothing it comes from the state doesn't it's federal far as I know it is run by the county Okay, maybe it's a block grant from Reagan or whoever knows what how do you do with these days? I mean the funding that goes to funding correct, so it might not even be Christie No No, why would it be Chris? Why would it be Christie because I was I assumed that welfare came from the state Even so what has Christie said about he hasn't said anything about that Or well, it's not a priority of his anything the recent George Washington Bridge scandal Is an embarrassment To the Christie administration however What people fail to realize is that our illustrious leader Has always been a vindictive person who does everything in his power To retaliate against those who don't endorse you the boom is a boom boy Isn't that what you have been preaching here tonight today?  There may be other answers. You still don't want to a war In Christie's first term He immediately went out to the state's teachers And quite frankly what Christie did to the teachers was a lot more abusive than this bridge Yeah teachers are still demonized by this bully of a government And are struggling to make ends meet Yet people believe him when he says teachers are the reason why their property taxes are so The teachers of Patterson have now been without a contract for three and a half years With no real decent proposal on the table here But it's funny That the closure of three lanes on the George Washington Bridge is what is causing Christie who finally fall to his knees Well, not quite but almost almost I truly hope That Christie's record has been blemished severely and pray That impeachment proceedings begin. Yeah, but then his lieutenant governor will probably take over another Republican What I just wonder is Why did it take so long? well, I Agree with the person as far as wishing with the mies of Krispy Kreme Chris Christie, I mean I agree with that but like like Dr. Bill says let us wait. It just started Let us wait to see what develops with the subpoena. Yeah, and we're gonna take a Supines the out subpoenas plural We're gonna take a break. It's time for Dr. Bill's gastronomic delight known as lunch and We will be back or I will be back with William H. Morrill the third our commercial voiceover artist and On location We will be back But anyway, that's what it's supposed to be supposed to be unbiased news and Not slanted towards one way like you said like Fox news or MSNBC They're they're like rank amateurs really see it into me and his sister network is excellent HLM It's equally as professional. What's the name of the sister network HLM.  He's suing the kid for $500,000 plus $100,000. He's claiming and lost wages salary So he basically got a boo boo. This is going to get lost. He basically got it basically got a boo boo and he's trying to it's trying to So what this comes with the game the territory? Oh, yeah, of course. It's part of it. It's a freak accident I mean it hit him it hit him in the ankle and how far how high a kid How high up to the kid go and what's the impact? I'm hitting the ground which lessens the blow and it bounces into your ankle. Let's go Wait, wait, wait, excuse me Not only did a child throw the helmet up in the air, but it ricocheted off the ground And then hit him in the ankle even if it didn't but how how what kind of an impact could that have been?   He's probably hoping for a small settlement Hey, I'll make 10 grand or so problem. He's trying to you know, of course his lawyer his lawyer takes the case, right? Sure It's incredible. It's what I remember years ago the guy in New York a Burglar went through the roof of the skylight Fell through the skylight right his leg and he sued the owner of the store and he won but he's a burglar But he won But he's lucky he didn't get shot at breaking an entry one though. Well, who to have what judge gave him exactly What judge of water is he?  Yeah, what's sticky is how your daddy is a sugar daddy these two were gummy. Oh, yeah Yeah, exactly. Yeah, it'll it'll yeah, exactly It's insane and you know what's more insane than the people the judges that award them money The people the real lawsuit other ones that have trouble like me my eyesight will never be the same again You have to wait longer because of all the nonsense that are in the courts. My sight will never be the same again, right? I'm legitimate They asked for us to get hit hard on the highway rear-ended like that.  That's what they said. I say you almost went blind Luckily got restored. You said will never ever be the same You need to sue that's it. Well, okay, so I caught I wasn't going to sue people talk me into it I don't go about how I can make a buck here. I don't think that way. No, but you because you were put through this This stress loss of eyesight Um loss of your your lens right your your your original lens was removed No, no, no, no, this happened after I had the cataract surgeon with the insert the lens that's in there still Oh, okay. It's a reattached the retina. I had a fully detached.  It was gone. It was just floating around right just floating, right? That's why my side was gradually reading to getting darker and darker And this is this is the thing that that all these frivolous insane lawsuits That are absolutely asinine are bogging down the court system and people who really have Cases where they need the money legitimate case where they they need the money. They deserve the compensation Have to wait a long time for their case Now we were talking about a very important subject on how scammers like to prey on senior citizens Lottery. Yeah, you didn't play the lottery, but you won and yet these older people fall for it They ask you for out front money. Hey, if I won the duck, let's send me the check If I won for if I won 20 million dollars, you say I have to send you for hundred dollars Send me send me 19 million 600,000. Did you deduct your fee? Send me the balance and the check. But how did I win, sir? I didn't enter your lottery But if you really won, why do you have to send the fee? Why do you have to send somebody out to show you the article I saved it for you And not only that they asked they know a lot of seniors are lonely And they want somebody to talk to and they asked them for their personal information So they try to do they also disguise it by making it look official like a US organization to know it You know, it's a very popular scam saying that but remind me police go ahead You know, it's a very popular scam when you get a something in email that looks like the authentic home page PayPal or Bank of America or whatever a fake Bank of America email came in and I reported and it's America too Watch up. No, they told me it wasn't them Bank of America Or was it I think it was PayPal too. They told me no, this is not us. This is a scam. That's right Sending you a facsimile of our home page. So what happens? They ask you for to submit your personal information again And why would they want my personal information again when they already have it, of course not Why would you ask for a second time if you already have I got that with the PDA once National PDA police, but never looked at this Wanted donation blah blah blah blah blah. I was told by my friends who were cops to always say this and it worked I said, I said horse. I'm sorry. I already gave to my local chapter here in Ridgewood clacky hung up Oh, really anything for that quick. Yeah you know we couldn't get to me I said I already gave to my uh my local tractor here so he probably has a whole whole thousands of yeah thousands of numbers to call and this is what happens and they just uh they state they it's easy pickings to approach the elderly because they know they seem to revert back to like being childlike they believe everything you know it's sad everything anything that sounds good you know they you won big well well don't you question don't you wonder did your mama did you ever ask your mom mommy didn't play or how could you I say I tell her all the time what did she say she goes I was picked randomly because they said so I said how do you know how do you know you were picked randomly Australian lottery the uh we'll see the irish weeks well she was she she entered a fake canadian lottery lottery is very canadian and they got caught they got caught there's a lot of canadian fake louder I've gotten mail from them in the past but it's been a will over 15 or more years and if you didn't listen if you didn't play how on earth could you be in it yeah we know you didn't enter so we played for you and guess what you want they contact me all the time telling me that I have uh I had a very rich relative who died in Nigeria and I'm of the Nigerians they're the worst oh so you did hear from why do I look like I have relatives in Nigeria yeah you really do yeah right yeah uh i choose one of the worst it's gone and gone and gone well that's yeah both of them both of them they actually train these people on how to hack and how to how to trick people into giving their personal information I know yeah they have schools that teach people how to teach kids how to pick pocket in uh yeah in even in Europe you know I actually was just playing against them I'm sorry this guy says I'll be he called me outside he said I'll be there about five or ten minutes I was 15 minutes ago so I told you you know yeah but anyway it's really a shame that today there seems to be more scamming than ever before well it's easier it's electronic that's why that's why they do it they and they and you know what I know for a fact that people in third world countries they they they learn how to hack anybody that gets a computer that you know they're desperate so they learn fast but maybe hacking hacking is the only way they can really make a decent amount of money you know it's dealing here because their their governments are so corrupt you know and and uh just like with Chris Christie is the missing hurricane sandy money uh yeah with the bridge gate you know I still we won't discuss it too much now but my question is if you I had no idea this was going on Christie said well if you're accountable you should know everything going on in your state if you don't know what's going on in your state how could you possibly we're the most powerful nation on the planet as president but how how could how how could a how could one of his staff members that he works closely with take it upon him or herself that doesn't make sense to me wouldn't they say to close down the lanes Chris or governor what how about this one let's do this they just respected they're so cultured so much to go behind his back and do that and he didn't know now wouldn't it first be some hb i got an idea why don't we close out of lanes blah blah blah what do you think you mean they went on their own right behind his back and did this highly unlikely yeah no question he's kiling on luck and and still what happened to what happened to that to the sandy the storm sandy money that uh well jimmy any kind of money bailout money there's always a lot of disappears foreign aid billions of dollars never gets allocated to the aid to the poor sorry children and these african nations and whatever their government confiscates the money exactly they do it in columbia south america they do it yeah that's the point you don't know what's going on how can you run a nation how can you run a nation oh i didn't know that was going on what do you mean what war yeah what's next and like i was going to say a third world country is like columbia south america that all charity money disappears advantage another thing in the news today about the big thing cnn uncovered these missile silos you know highly highly high tech operators a number of these people have been demoted taken off their jobs because they cheated on their training tests really and these are defending this is defending our nation and these missile silos right cheating cheating scandal the air force you know academics is dumbed down you know well the main thing is i give great credit to all these journalists that are uncovering these stories to an ethical public know what's ethical uh the ethics issue is totally gone down work ethic everything honesty integrity everything's gone down to like it just like it well look at snowden look at snowden he to me that's great he blew he's a whistleblower but he's they call him a trader trader he his ideas i thought the public should know i'm not worth all i feel the pollution yeah why shouldn't we know we're being spied upon come off of it now your phone amidst signals interest in your shopping habits around the store where you want what you're buying so he was doing he was doing the american people a public a favor uh by telling them what the government was doing beware this has kind of stopped yeah it's really a shame it's really a shame now the um the other popular story that we have will you make more of the third of course is uh uh should cheating uh you know sports and enhancement drugs the anabox steroids be allowed in professional sports of course the answer to me is no because it's cheating now alex rodriguez and his uh cohort that supplied it and injected him of course is uh trying to uh justify it by saying that everybody's doing it so not everybody but i'm yeah a great a great percentage great percentage already out yes estimate but instead of coming down on one man they have to do a much stricter drug testing with everybody you know yes it is cheating yes everybody else and make sure banned substance you know like i said many athletes didn't know it was in the prescribed drug for an illness they had they didn't know this because a lot of things do contain elements of steroids but a guy gets a prescription doctor says here take this i didn't know this what do you mean it's illegal i didn't know i'm taking this for information or this or that the doctor said it was fine you tell me some bad substance now right well it well under prescription it's fine no no even then that but if you're going to be an athlete you have to disclose this information you know what i mean well i would like if it was made for now and these guys are going to have to call the legal office or yeah their training staff and whatever said here's what's in this drug i'm taking with the doctor am i okay with this yeah i'm going to have to get the okay that's okay this is all with kensiglu's book but steroids is across the board and almost every sport i'm sure you see the soccer uh i'm sure probably possibly i don't know tennis again you don't see a big muscular definition there and then again what's what's there's so many differences between steroids growth hormone you know maltostostarone maybe what's all the differences here they're all they're all synthetic forms of testosterone they are and then you know but what about then you had the proteins and whey powders and this and that this goes to my hands performance as well these are things you can buy in a in a in a vitamin arginine ornithine ornithine well they're supposed to be growth both amino acids they call them secretogogs yes so what's the difference there why aren't they illegal you know who made them popular dirk pierce and sandy shore yeah for the life extension life extension yes book they had in about 30 years ago but the point point is that uh rodriguez told his his friend there that um he wanted that he wanted to create the 800 club meaning he wanted his goal was to hit 800 home runs but he wanted to do it through steroid use which is cheating you know why why how could you claim to beat hank erin's or i'm talking about barry barns claiming he beat hank erin's record wouldn't you question yourself too was i really that good or was i enhanced you know was i is this my natural ability or or there should be a disclaimer are these drugs may be bringing up what you have inside of you you just don't know how to utilize well how could how could one how do we look at this how could one be in the in coopers town in the hall of fame and look yourself in the mirror knowing that you cheated to hit 800 home runs i mean it's it's i it would bother the hell out of me well a lot of it to you have to look at these guys before they started all the juice uh i know alzado i believe when he was in college well when he was with the raiders he was i think almost 300 to 300 plus pounds i believe he was 170 something in college same with mark require if you remember image review of the a's he was a stick right he was thin as a rail all of this guy balloons up right and he saw so the same thing but you didn't see rafiel palmero blown up if you think no he did not blow mary bonds did his head even changed he had barry bonds but rafiel palmero did not he seemed to be really uh burned at the stake but he didn't uh look muscular and you know he was with the texas ranges and then later joined the orio well he was originally with the chicago cubs and it was great player for us some people i well i think genetics has a lot to do with how big you're gonna get on steroids depending how much you take of steroids too your dosages and which ones you're taking too they're all different kinds of course the more you take the more at risk the more your organs shutting down or dying well i hear with growth hormone is possible for your internal organs to actually grow and get too big for your body so now what that's the point now what now what there's no turning back once the damage is done and uh it's really um a sad situation that people have to cheat you know the young young athletes have to cheat who's the young manifold i think bill walkie uh ryan brawn is a ryan brawn i think it's the name of the baseball player he doesn't he's not huge or anything either so uh i wonder what these guys really took they don't have to look up where they ballooned up maybe they just maybe they just trained and exercised the old-fashioned way and a properly well they've also found certain athletes in the olympics or whatever during test testing were taking illegal supposedly illegal bad substances prescribed by their doctor the eastern block of no because no no not illegally these were things because they were sick and it was in their prescribed medication they had no idea this was bad well the doctor wrote down my prescription it added some of the substance in it and you know they failed they failed anabolic steroids originally was a prescribed for emaciated patients you know some of this testing how can you fail some and then you test again you you don't fail you got a point all the testing you got a point how can that be should it be the pastor fail across the board about how many times you're tested i don't understand this you know as a nutritional consultant you know how many people ask me about natural cleansers for preparing them for a drug test how many people wanted to you know trick the drug test because they had to take a drug test which means there's a lot of young people well that are using and the bottom line is no matter what you take there's always a way to hide or to disguise it per se and i'm sure it's being done and i'm sure you can look on the any website and find ways to do it too i just don't know where all this is for sports it's just there should be i mean you shouldn't even have to have a disclaimer they just shouldn't be allowed to cheat it's it's it's it's like any other they know that you're not supposed to cheat not supposed to take what they still do everybody's looking for anything that would give them an edge that's like having a thoroughbred racehorse and you and you're at the preakness in maryland and you put an extension to make the horses nose longer and the horse won by your nose they won't go after they've been uh uh accusations of steroid use and some of the horses severely given to in years past you're right so you're right about that the horse racing field now it seems it seems to be uh it seems like unethical behavior it is the norm what is but anything to win at all costs why because winning means money and everything their performance is better a bigger contract for you later right now we're living in a very greed oriented society today which is really sad and uh people used to do it because they loved the sport they loved what they did you know what i mean it didn't get the big money back then they used to work in the off season at another job the money wasn't huge yeah and that's not that long ago we're talking about people had a fit in i think 60 mid to late 60s when nameth came up and as a rookie sign with the jets for 450 thousand dollars so that is insane now you sign and sit the bench for millions you don't even play so it's changed in a matter of decades really you know i bet that i bet the stars back then being that they did it for the love of the sport i bet that's the reason why they didn't charge fans for their autographs that they bought a whole different mindset in fact our parents grew up in a different era too it was a whole different mentality uh you know everything has changed yeah and change is not always good the days of ted williams and uh stan museum and and jordan margio i mean maybruz's training was lifting a beer that was his training well it's his father owned the saloon in both of them right supposedly we're second bases in canada in the yards i don't know how true that is but that's what i heard pratt pratt street i don't know no that was that's the street babe roots lives grew up and i believe that's where i'm proud i'm a boredom old boys you know well that's where the tavern was yeah babe roots now i don't know what's going to happen on the road sports i have no idea you look at them trying to make football safer where it's making it harder to tackle somebody so where's everything headed for the first time this coming baseball season you're not a lot of home plate collisions with the catcher so that's a big change you got to step to the side as a catcher that's yes where's everything had weird words are we trying to over sterilize spores yeah i can't block the plate what's going to be next some of these tennis players are grumpy because it gives them more power correct people will be illegal or penalty oh i heard some of the ground everything made it big i i i give them more power listen i hated it when i used to personal train at gyms and these these these young guys would scream whatever every rep when you know yeah they're screaming at the top of their lungs now is that necessary to scream when you listen away for them maybe that's their style in their way you know what works for one doesn't always work for the other but that's their way hey go for it yeah you know but uh yeah this is really a situation that's gotten out of hand nobody knows where it's headed yeah well you know and not only that getting back to what we talked about off the air uh people are always they're always attacking the athletes for receiving such astronomical salaries but the owners can say no the owners can't say no but they don't you know and who gets hurt the fans because the price of the tickets are are really high they're a rip off the price of the food at a stadium is is ridiculous look how fair it is at a minor league ball game very fair dollar hot dogs look at the purest example baseball little league little league world series you know it's cost to go in there nothing dollar a hot dog drinks like a dog everything's cheap someone go to have fun someone told me to take his wife and his two kids to a major league baseball game 400 someone yes between the tickets and the food yeah because they put heaven forbid you should be allowed to bring your own you're not your your own sam a snacks that's how they get you can't bring your own where's that fair i mean uh you know what they told me uh when i was uh somebody had a ticket it was in the winter the uh Pittsburgh Steelers were playing the new york jets over here at the meadowlands and uh i brought my stainless steel thermos that you know of you know of they won't let me bring the thermos in because they said it was a security violation what they think is a bomb in here right yeah they thought it'll be you can't even carry liquids on all of them a jet flight yeah any fluid or liquid could be used for bomb making or something right uh pen knives even we're become we are so paranoid it's understandable but it's taking all the enjoyment of living out of life that's sad maybe we have to just take our chances sometimes still yeah you know we can't but we get a little carried away at times well it just seems like like the monetary factor that greed is has become so obsessive nowadays win at all costs uh succeeded all costs become it's not enough to become a millionaire everybody has to become a billionaire you know it's like it's never enough what is enough never enough and then there are people who are existing and not really living that's right i've said that for how long there are people there are people who worry about their next meal where the words come from you're existing you're not living there's a difference you're alive but you're not living you know i mean isn't living that's an entirely different meaning you should be living should be enjoyed or whatever not just in existence and sadly the majority of people in this platter just merely insisting getting by some of our how many people go to bed hungry at night yeah every night around the planet i mean so you have an hour not even fresh water polluted water bacteria filling their whole body with parasites and what have you well it's it's becoming like it is in uh in uh countries third world countries where they have a very corrupt form of capitalism like columbia south america where you have the the poor the very poor and the very wealthy the very wealthy and no middle class nothing in between and it's not that hard to fix their water problem there are tremendous filtration systems out there that can be put in a matter of a week or two or less even well the philippines is that way too people from the philippines tell me i have corruption is the poor get poorer the rich are getting richer and there's no body in between no figure yet they have one of the greatest universities on the planet the university of the philippines oh that's a good school phenomenal you mean academically oh i didn't know that i didn't know that if your friends that moved down there go to that school was that good yeah well well like me and the reverend dr. william j eisman always said that the education a good education a good complete education and good health care are supposed to be rights not privileges like europe and canada everybody gets to go to college yeah yeah so but anyway thank you for another great session for uh this week's progressive discussions and now now i will return to the reverend dr william j eisman talk to you next time yes all right bye bye everybody okay we are back i am back with the reverend dr william j eisman and of course again thank you very much william each more of the third for our very hard-hitting invigorating session together meeting with him all right dr bill let's get let's get back to these readings i think the last reading you read before lunch was about chris christie and bridgegate and uh as we all know there are 20 people so speed it to testify and let's see what happens personally i think the word outraged has been grossly overused lately however i am outraged that governor christie insists on calling the shutdown of the two access lanes to the george washington bridge a mistake obviously nothing could be further from the truth the bridgegate a debacle was a deviously calculated scheme callously implemented with no regard for the unsuspecting public this entire issue is a disgrace to new jersey taxpayers and only exacerbates the persona of new jersey as a bad joke well makes it worse than what it is i wait with bated breath for the outcome of this and other scandals that the investigative committees will uncover in my opinion the entire administration needs a complete overhaul well it would have had a complete overhaul if if people had sense enough to vote for barbobono yeah would have been a different person who did it who did who did splendidly in the two debates with chris christie you know but he was the hero of hurricane sandy that's what they made him out to be and the democrats for christie sellouts the sellout traitorous democrats is that the same as a blue dog or is there a different definition it's the same as a fool or somebody that just uh got their palms greased took the bribe and had a reason to sell out to christie well most of them have you the reason that the bridgegate took place was the fact that the mayor of fort lee did not endorse mr christie like the other kneeling democrats so you know it may not have been a money thing it could be a appearance thing they will appear with mr christie and will enhance their being well his christie christie and his big and i i cannot overemphasize the word big selfish ego and his uh dictatorial goon boy mannerisms he is not a bully he uh he said so he's punished him now now my friend mario petrus uh was talking to the uh a former mayor of fort lee he was an old man but you know he was he was in the gym working out and he was a former mayor and this guy was saying christie he's a great man he's a good man and mario just like went along with it and uh i don't know i don't know maybe maybe he was a client of mario personal training client it's possible because i would have told him flat out i said are you serious he's a great man so maybe he was a republican this former mayor of fort lee to me it does not matter if a politician is a democrat or a republican what if there is an abuse of power it should be investigated and reported on well yes yes so kudos to the record which is our aloco newspaper for uncovering the mess behind the george washington bridge lane closure oh they have they don't they never discuss it was a couple of months late but you know the record never really gives you the news that you get on the internet you know like like real deep things that's going on you know they they they deal with lighter subjects with that said where are these same investigative reporters when it comes to the many scandals in washington including the fast and furious gun running episode the attack on the u.s outpost in mingazi libya and the internal revenue service spying i'll tell this person where those things are they were not scandals that's why they were investigated by a republican conservative mr darrell isa and guess what he found close your eyes and what do you see nothing that's exactly what he found i you mean he played sergeant shoots from hogan zero's no he didn't admit they found nothing oh he still uses them as a ways to to to uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh cuddle up to the base but they are without any evidence all three of those scandals that she she mentioned okay believe me if there was a there there mr isa and the republicans would be there there but there is nothing there and they're trying to make perception there but that's all they have okay perception yeah not one bit of evidence as you keep claiming that they need when they speak they don't think so they speak it then what is without evidences because they because they say they have evidence they that means they have evidence perception is bullshit unless it can be proven obviously their base does not demand proof well they're just covering up bingo if there were a republican administration in washington during these scandals one could be sure that the press would be as relentless as it is being now with the governor christy how dare the press believe that one scandal is worse than another because of the political party at the helm well breaking the law is breaking the law that was a defense of mr christy you know i mean uh unethical behavior is abuse of power is bad no matter what politician does it you know yeah but gee whiz you gotta prove it don't you yeah they haven't proved it in those three scandals that she mentioned but we're about to prove it in the christy scandal aren't we well but they're they're really going after christy that's correct if there's something there we will find it you know uh whether people find christ christy as a threat in 2016 or not um no matter how you shake it if it if it's a republican to go up against it's a big threat it it's still serious and um the implicate implications for the poor in the middle class is still the same so uh it doesn't have to be christy it could be anybody if they're right wing they're the enemy and uh they're they're always a threat because they're the puppets of the uh the corporations the elitists which we they are they are enemies because they wish to destroy this government of we they want and they they have this government of them and the corporations right now they do not want us to have a government of we okay because a government of we would stop the man's monsanto's of the world from doing their dastardly beats yeah and and nesli nesli's and all of them yes yeah well the only difference between chris christy and the other republicans is because he's more flamboyant boisterous you know he sticks himself in front of the camera and has a lot to say he's louder you know he's uh he likes that he's vindictive for those that don't like him whenever the red light goes on on a camera in washington yeah those republicans are right there baby believe me yeah right there to get that FaceTime somebody posted a cartoon of uh what if chris christy became president in 2016 and and it showed um an attack drone uh chasing down somebody on the highway that uh didn't agree with christy or you know having drones sent by chris christy to go out to everybody everybody who who who criticized him or what was not supportive of him well you know like uh like a boom like like uh like a like a mafia boss i'm a dictator yeah well he's half he's half irish and half italian but the point is oh my god the point is though that a lot of police departments do now have drones in spite along with their swat team well they have the the spy drones the uh little unmanned miniature uh like helicopters they have a small one now like mosquito that can jab you and dna from you that's amazing it's incredible incredible yeah but i don't think i don't think local law enforcement may have that something that's sophisticated they can order it from the federal government i can believe me they got swat things they got those uh military military uh uh trucks or whatever the hell they are to go bomb people well i know they have uh they have the electronic fake rock that they throw on your front lawn that can hack into everything you're doing they can hack you on your telephone hear what's going on in your house yeah in your privacy okay privacy right now the NSA is collecting every bit of digital data in the world well oh we won't use this unless they know a terrorist calls somebody in the United States bullshit a lot of people more than you think are aware of the corruption that's been going on and uh you know it it's look if two part of the two-party system is business as usual why are people still supporting the two-party system you know well they figured it's the only game in town um like what oh like obama care a lot of uh poor people are very happy with health coverage that they never had before yeah and so but they don't the republicans probably don't want to subsidize uh poor people they don't want to subsidize so yeah obama care well why would he leaps want to support an army of poor people with that if they really understood their power within the democracy we take away their money or vote them uh with problems that's why they want to dumb down the population and that's why they are a partnered with the corporations to keep the people down they want to dumb down the mainstream so the mainstream will work for chicken feet wages or or be incarcerated in one of those uh uh slave labor camps which i call privatized prisons yeah if somebody puts a banner up there on uh facebook last night about uh this one guy who kid who shot four people and got away with murder or whatever and then the young lady who killed her baby in the dumpster or whatever got away with murder and then another guy sitting in jail for smoking pot oh yeah yeah yeah yeah you're right you're right the guy possession of marijuana he's doing time life life why he's doing life why is he doing life there's another guy in texas years ago life he wrote out three bad checks he's doing life three strikes and you're out oh yeah yeah yeah talk about twisted three strikes mean like what three felonies or something and that's it that's all i don't even know if that's a felony maybe in misdemeanor you're right a bad check what the hell isn't that kind of frivolous to be supporting a person in prison for the rest of his life i mean isn't it isn't that like a drop in a bucket i mean to be having a personal life the man should have been fine a couple of bucks that's it three felonies and you're in for a life which means that's tax dollars keeping these people taking a prison space unnecessarily i think it's an excuse to get slave labor i think this is the new modern day scam of corporate america is the privatized prisons forgetting people to work for free it's even worse than outsourcing it's cheaper for them it's cheaper than outsourcing it's all twisted yep it's all twisted speaking of twisted governor christine has done it again with your help i don't like or dislike the governor but here's another wimp but the record is doing his beating oh that doesn't surprise me look at his plan to extend the school day and you think it's horrible parents don't know what to think how much more will the longer school days and year cost in taxes let me guess he wants the teachers to work the longer hours with the same pay or less and no pensions no pensions well that's what they would like they're doing it in detroit and other places where they have uh republican governors i think i think this calls for the pensions that are taken the city's broke i think this calls for statewide teachers strike what happens to our summer vacation oh as a child if i was a kid i would be throwing darts at a photograph of christmas when will little johnny get home when will little johnny have time to do his homework after dinner if he was in school later than three p.m the new jersey education association says school boards are wondering how to pay for the xp hours you know christmas he said about he wants to prepare children for a lifetime of work for the for the workplace wants to prepare workplace wearing jobs even so it is a dumbing down because what they want you to do is they don't want you to go to college anymore too like uh have a liberal arts uh uh curriculum you must train for something yeah they want you to train for a so-called in-demand occupation in demand so-called in demand at the time you go into school maybe but when you get out may not be in demand anymore they go you know you know in the government website it said fashion design wasn't considered a demand occupation what happened fashion designer you got to be kidding me what's demand occupation there's a new show on cable there's a lot of new shows i think it's called the gun show or something g un and oh that's better it's about fashion it's like the voice or the one-way crowd crowd what the hell was that one fashion got talent or something well i know uh uh i know uh john rivers has had that fashion show for a long time but anyway it's it's competition listen if medical billing and coding now i don't know now that might be with obama care that might be fashion that might be in demand again it wasn't before but fashion design that's something you take like a liberal arts vacation a vacation liberal arts vocation yes these are the things like any old days people went to college and they took philosophy and they took this and that and everything things that we would say those people would say today well that's not preparing you for a job in a big corporate marketable skill marketable yeah marketable even though you hate it well it's not training the brain for bigger things maybe the talent of the person that wants to take the liberal arts course will will achieve real success because if you love what you're doing it's really not work you may be the innovator yes innovator then talk however then he is presented with another problem getting the money to support this invention or his innovation that's true if you have an idea how do you market it without being ripped off by some corporation that's the capital assistance or if you go to school to learn a career that the government says is in demand and you you have this career now and you can't get a job because they're not out there and then now you try to freelance you know you try to start a small business that's another thing republicans say oh yeah start your own i mean teabagger said don't work for somebody else start your own business oh yeah what do you live on until your business becomes a success until you get enough clients and how do you promote it how do you promote it and how do you get your clients initially maybe take the cookies on the street like amos famous amos given away cookies and how do you pay your bills while while you're trying to find clients that's why in the capitalist system those with the money had the head start see that's the problem so it's not a fair system and we know that by the inequality that is here today where was i what about the schools that have no air conditioning oh i remember that now the businesses at the shore will have to weather another storm they already lost because as it is high school students have to start their fall activities in the middle of august now there may be even less time for vacations holy shit that's bad man the governor and his staff knew all of this they knew the media would swallow a hook line and sinker the fictional proposal to lengthen the school day and year was a red herring designed to wipe bridge gates from the headlines distraction the oldest trick in the book look over there so meanwhile all the teachers and new jersey's youth will be up in arms and it's a big distraction to keep keep your mind away from bridge gate well that's how they do it because i'm sure anybody who goes to school and anyone who teaches is going to hate this and uh i mean i hate it and i'm not even going to school and i'm not a student i hate it like what a passion i think it's terrible extending the uh the length and cutting cutting into summer vacation and i believe if i'm not mistaken i heard christie claim that he had cut property taxes uh this year because of school crapola of course that don't figure too well if you're going to extend the year well well he should cut property taxes anyway because christie took a hatchet to so much new jersey spending state spending i mean he did cut quite well he had to give the those millionaires a break uh now you see the hypocrisy of all this i know they control the the media and everything but they they demonize the poor they get a few crumbs which is what welfare is to the poor but the rich get they get like a whole loaf they don't get they don't get only a loaf they get a whole they get a whole cattle butchered you tell them let them eat cake and guess what they eat the cake they get they get they take the bakery they don't just take the cake they got the whole bakery exactly the welfare that goes to the rich is not a drop in a bucket like when the poor get welfare you know and but that's fine the rich who don't deserve it get it but not the poor that's great and nobody in the media comes forth and says this except possibly lionel who is a local personality i believe he's progressive on to an extent channel 11 picks he says some pretty uh you know let him get on the wrong side of a sponsor pretty amazing you see his ass get out of there post haste you mean have at least one sponsor that he he rubs the wrong way or one of the executives at the top he just hasn't ruffled the wrong feathers yet well then i would tell my my fans of my public why i'm being fired from the station let them know you won't be able to then of course you're made of liners all over the internet well fine for that but how many people are going to go to lie now on the internet those that subscribe to lionel exactly just because things people whatever are on the internet doesn't mean it's it's the same old bullshit he's from radio there's got to be some way of getting things to people it could tell he could tell his is uh lesions of fans on his radio station if he's still doing radio i'm not sure um i don't know but if i'm not mistaken i accidentally was going down the dial the other day and it seems to me that rush limbaugh is now on w o r what what he's not on w abc really that's what i saw the other day or heard yeah i hope he's not both grant's place because he was getting a little friction on w abc oh oh yeah yeah because he's been a big contrast he's been an ass i'm surprised that w o r going for uh for limbaugh i'm surprised i'm surprised that i'm going for money i'm surprised fox news hasn't given rush limbaugh a show yeah a satanic group has unveiled designs for a seven foot tall statue of satan it wants to place at the oklahoma state capital oh geez let me guess this is a republican governor in oklahoma where a 10 commandments monument was placed in 2012 first of all how do they know what satan looks like no but they don't even know what jesus really looked like or any of them oh man the new york-based satanic temple oh it's in new york submitted its application to a panel that oversees the capital grounds including an artist's rendering that depicts satan as a baffle met yeah the goat the goat head the goat headed man figure with horns and wings and a long beard sitting on a throne inscribed with an inverted pentagram according to a spokesman for the temple the statue will also have a functional purpose as a chair where people of all ages may sit on the lap of satan lovely well for inspiration santa claus you know what are gonna they're gonna rub and contemplation you're gonna rub his uh crotch for good luck he doesn't have a crotch contemplation well he has a crotch but there's nothing there he has no protrusions on that crotch unbelievable so instead of santa which is paganism also they're gonna sit on satan's lap in public this is the first boosters argue that if the government can place an overtly judeo christian monument on its property it must accept monuments from other faiths to avoid running afoul of the constitution yeah but they're talking about a red state a bible belt state steven wildman author of founding faith how our founding fathers forged a radical new approach to religious liberty called the statue the inevitable outcome of what religious conservatives set in motion with efforts to bring more religion into the public square so that's that's a way of promoting religion is to have a giant statue of satan no that's the way to get even with the republicans who have already put a statue or monument of the ten commandments there uh you see i see well the ten commandments go with their fire and brim brimstone approach to christianity that's old testament well it's not only old testament it was for ancient israel and not for modern day men and women yeah okay judgment otherwise why the hell do people need to be resurrected onto judgment if there's judgment today hmm right why why twice what's that i don't know is somebody outside the door somebody inside the i don't know i hear a cat yeah i think it's mom well she's gonna mama the mouse matter whatever she gets loud all open the door but she probably won't come in he added as james madison said even government efforts to help religion will backfire that hurt religion right brady anderson of the oklahoma chapter of the american civil liberty union which is suing in state court to have the ten commandments statue removed oh boy pointed to florida where the placement of a nativity scene on the state capital grounds last year led to a free for all the nativity scene from what i understand jesus may not have been born in in a in a manger it is inaccurate in any event it has three wisemen there they didn't appear they didn't appear at the time of birth though they do not so if we take the 25th of december as his birthday and he was born in a manger right when the uh when the uh the the wisemen came to see him was a couple of weeks later i'm sure he was still not in the manger well the latin american countries um they celebrate i believe it's called three kings day which is is sometime at the beginning of january six or something yes something like that but but yeah of course he wasn't born in december and the whole manger the whole nativity scene is false the joke it's a joke it's a joke same thing with of course the christmas tree the holly the reads everything else the yule well the yule log i'm not going to pick on because i like fireplaces very cozy very nice the smell yule log represents the sun yule means wheel oh okay the sun well then just call it that's all pagans got lighten the fireplace in the winter then keeping warm and having a nice a nice marshmallow roast cozy oh i hate marshmallows maladon no i wouldn't do a uh smoked sausage kilbasa roast on kebab skewers you need a grill yeah yeah uh you could put you could put you put them over to fire like i'm no you could put the you know you could do you could put like a cast iron hibachi or something like that right next to the logs that are flaming and it will heat the grill you know uh cyclists the temperature in the fireplace you know it'll heat the grill enough so you can grill things that might work to get around the first amendment problems they had to let other groups in so next to the crash was a festivist pole and flying spaghetti monster flying spaghetti monster i know festivist from seinfeld but a spaghetti monster here is something with thousands of years of tradition like next to a joke from science you know i we got rid of our festivist pole we used to have one of those aluminum trees it was stupid but shouldn't how did i know festivist was going to be so popular after the seinfeld episode i would have kept it you should have saved the pole i didn't know what answer lap dancing pole no i should have saved the pole with the stand and you just got rid of the stupid aluminum tree if i would have known about festivists anyway the government here is uh uh uh uh making equal christmas and seinfeld that cheapens a lot of people's faith you know either way it's ridiculous it's preposterous what what the with the with the liberals want to do is is crazy what the conservatives want to shove down your throat it's not crazy it's crazy both sides politics itself is crazy why do you have to spend money on it politics is pathological i mean why can't people just celebrate in their own home privacy why do we have to spend tax dollars on these things well why are they celebrating jesus's birthday it's not required anywhere he never asked to honor his birthday or anybody else and that's why nobody knows when it occurred of course but we know when harrig's birthday was and the tradition and pharaoh yeah and all the traditions of the so-called holidays east or christmas they're all from paganism but you know what this information is is on the history channel there there's been documentaries explaining it it's on the uh internet that you know there are people as we speak right now that still have not removed their christmas decorations in front of the house man like they don't want to let go but it but it's fake anyway it's it's it's uh i'm serious as gary knowl said the other day after you know investigation etc etc you can't change ideology and fundamentalism you can't do is this ideology and fundamentalism is is a fantasy it's a fairy tale exactly but as revelation 12 9 says the whole world is deceived but he who is deceived does not know he's deceived so he defends his ideology and his fundamentalism to the death and why are there people like george carlin said who are independent free thinkers that will question everything very few and throughout history and do some research like people like us like gary knowl like the late george carlin did like others very few uh um jesse ventura that you know these it's amazing how there are humans that are free independent thinkers and there are even more that are not that believe in ideology and are too lazy to or not lazy but they they're too powerful they're they won't open their mind to the truth why should they do that that takes work i knew somebody that was about lazy i knew i know somebody personally that freaked out when i did a little video at pub 46 about santa claus and and pagan christmas he's afraid that his relatives and friends won't like him won't accept him anymore if he changes his well that's one of the problems when you go around spouting the truth you ain't like anymore people are afraid they're not going to be approved oh i can't uh i can't say that about sanny claus i'm a cat lick i said what the hell does catholicism have to do with uh worshiping a pagan holiday and what does christmas have to do with santa claus yes correct since st nick and santa claus and etc and all the reincarnations therefore came like what 1700 years after jesus so this person because he grew up with this form of religion this catholicism if somebody proved to him that the catholic church was wrong about many things that are in the bible he would he would close his mind to that also because he's programmed to march in lockstep to this brainwashing whereas other people like us are well our brains are i don't know if our brains are just more advanced than his or as right showed liberalism and conservatism are character structures not brain stuff they are character structures yeah but many liberals usually can back up what they say with evidence what does that have to do with a character structure you are a conservative validation you will take on to your conservatism things that agree with your conservatives if you are liberal you will do the same is this why some democrats won't accept the fact that uh many are turncoats and sellouts democrat is not a character structure it's a party yeah a character structure for a progressive liberal is one of compassion uh empathy um yeah yeah i would say that's the biggest trait you know the ability to empathize and feel compassion and conservative would be the opposite the opposite the conservatives would be the worship of money the bottom line always wins and in the end the only one who is happy is the one who wants to make a mockery of religion the aclu has also complained that the oklahoma monument reflects a translation referred by protestants not the catholic or jewish version each have their own version what about god's version in response to the satan request yeah the state state and capital preservation commission placed a moratorium on considering any new monuments until the lawsuit is decided so they ain't got no satan statue yet you know gold right why don't they just put a statue of satan wearing cowboy boots a ten gallon hat they should have you know they should have that on every exit out of texas a picture of satan with cowboy boots and a ten gallon hat welcome let's say leaving texas leaving texas welcome to texas sorry to see you or yeah you could have it welcome come back that's even better come back y'all come back y'all come back y'all come back down ashi nigeria a lot of scammers coming out of nigeria internet scamming and gana too a young man convicted of sodomy was whipped 20 times thursday in the northern nigerian sharia court are they practices of islam nigeria sharia court sharia law oh they're they're a cult Islamic law oh Islamic yeah but there's something else going on like in Uganda the religious nuts are in Uganda and they wish to kill gays oh yeah as the bible they set one on fire yes they did i i posted a a photo of that on the group again people using their own thoughts and traditions and etc in in in in in offense of what god says because god is not judging so you have no right to judge today yeah at this time god is not judging though mubarak ibrahim was found guilty on their sharia law it is the first conviction of a gay man in nigeria since president good luck jonathan good luck find a bill we haven't wronged them all day levity bills that further criminalizes homosexuality under the west african nation's western style penal code uh activists believe the new law has stirred homophobia maybe homophobia created the new law jeez yeah you know oh boy they can't just live and let live and worry about oh god worry about their own salvation in their own lives live and let live what is this this lust for for power and control revenge revenge revenge uh they're the gays are very inoffensive people i mean inoffensive as in uh they don't hurt anybody uh that is not the belief of the conservative right wing they believe that the gays have an agenda and they wish to make us all gay there's a paranoia paranoia i can see me now becoming gay that's where they that's where they found the word uh that's how they found the word homophobic that's a fear fear yeah but if it's the same thing with gay marriage what the hell do i care about gay marriage for i ain't marrying no gay and he ain't marrying me so why it bothers me you know what i mean yeah that's something between them the only thing don't bother me at all the only thing that bothers me is when one of the lesbian couples at the altar um is dressed like a man you know why can't they just be how they are in everyday life why does it have to look like a bride in a groom you know what i mean oh no it's weird why do why do we hip hoppers have to go around with oh by the way did you see the new uh what what what would we call it the new decoration body decoration it's a see-through piece of glass and round shape and and they put it no it looks into your jaw into your mouth it's disgusting you see right into the mouth it's kind of gross it's this it's mutilation well what about those people in african way they mutilate the neck so the neck gets smaller they they yeah they they stretch the neck they uh the you bangies what is it they stretch the lip and the lips so it's the same thing it's dressing like a man there's another tribe where the ear lobes are pulled and stretched how do you explain that shit you know people are weird hey you know i what did what did the watchbook i'll say you had that program in the afternoon with the kids people are funny is that what i don't know i never watched that silly family-oriented programming i watch funny adults i used to watch the newlywed game or not in the match game and i watched them i watched them but um i respect uh athletes uh like there are some pro wrestlers that have no tattoos whatsoever john sena uh the miss uh uh alex riley i mean there are people who just did not go the route of of this tattoo fad where everybody just has to get not one not two but several or excessively amounts of tattoos you see it a lot important to all the chicks that got tattoos well the the the the fuck me tattoo the the slut tattoo is usually the the the large tattoo on on the lower back of the girl like right above the ass cheeks what does it say well no the that varies the design varies but they're usually uh attractive yeah but if she's not into analyst does it say whoa uh should say usda choice great a honor but she no but it's in the center and usually girls that are a little on the wild side usually have that the tattoo in the in the center of the lower back but the point i'm trying to make excessive amounts i forget it i knew this young lady not so young anymore who owned this spanking video yeah whatever a fetish uh company company and she rightfully in my opinion did not go for those with the tats tattoos the initials are dc no the only somebody else the owner okay she did not want anyone with visible tattoos well you because i find it at the least it's more enticing i find it at the least not even bringing into it you know the destruction of the body the tattoo acting as a low grade infection any of that i'm not bringing in any of that but it is distracting to me the immune system will attack a tattoo as a form later and the tongue thing and the excessive body tears and while you see uh i think it's better i think it's better to make the uh the porno girl or woman whatever look um like a decent every day girl next door you know where she doesn't have tattoos and then fool everybody by having her behave in a very slutty manner in the movie because you know as you expect if a girl looks like a prostitute yeah you expect her to be but i'm only talking about to behave as one i'm only talking about it coming from the parent of an artist see well sometimes i want to see i have the belief i have the belief there are billboard for the artist that the human if feminine form is quite beautiful and should remain unblemished like god in the old testament when he wanted a sacrificial animal it had to be the firstborn and unblemished yeah i i hear that's why that's how i look at it i don't have any i really don't choose to have any i i think that tattoos can be very artistic depending on the tattoo what with two colors no no no not two colors i've seen how many colors can you use i've seen red and green and uh yeah red and green and black that's it and uh yeah and um what else no they just use like certain colors that's it you're right about that so how the hell can you really not going to see the the mbc peacock on somebody i would have told you like that baby you know i mean like with many colors like it's like a uh a jpeg a jpeg photo jpg joseph's coat of many colors but anyway anyway finish up on this reading and then we'll yes we're going into a light subject now you mean like uh compact fluorescent bulbs no sex oh you're being sarcastic i have been seeing carl for eight months now and we have never had sex i don't believe it after two or three months and he's still with her i brought up the subject what's wrong with this guy he said he was stressed because he had just lost his job he also said there is never any privacy at his place because he has roommates and tenants doesn't he have a bedroom i offered to go to my place he's avoiding something but he said with my son there it's the same issue tell your son to go in the room and watch tv and shut up mommy's gotta do mommy's got something to do with me and as the trobriander islanders do the kids yeah they put a mat over their head whilst the adults are what about uh some kind of uh foam ear plugs or just put them in their room and say don't disturb me if you knock on mommy's door you're gonna get it real bad carl says he is very attracted to me but doesn't want our time together to be ruined by his current money problems doesn't he ever like think of other things i mean don't we all have our financial woes i think what a boner in other words he can't get a boner if as long as money problems we don't know that yet this sounds perhaps she has not grabbed at the appendage maybe she's not she's not uh seducing him being a surter or maybe she's ugly or maybe she's fat or maybe she doesn't do anything to arouse him or maybe he's just an idiot i told him i understood and i have waited yeah hey i also explained that it makes me feel insecure and unwanted and why doesn't she ask him to have intercourse with her he now has a job now what's the problem but we still haven't had sex he was making excuses see i i sent something strange about the story right from the beginning he has in the interim told me he loves me eight months was the uh telltale sign and he wants to marry me i constantly worry that there's someone else and wonder what's wrong with me she's probably right he's banging somebody else this is dear abbey so now we're going to read dear abbey's answer dear abbey's dead this is the new dear abbey she's calling herself dear abbey yes maybe her name is abigail too i don't know that's her name abigail dear love but love but but but but is there any intimacy at all in your relationship with car yeah yeah i mean is he affectionate is there any physical response when he holds and kisses you i mean does his dick go up oh she puts that oh i put that in myself but that's a question i would answer and and have knowledge of so there's absolutely she's trying to find out if there's any foreplay or any showing of affection connection which would lead to intercourse she's trying to establish that well let's just say it's a good night kiss and it's in in a frontal mode you made a romantic kiss well whatever or not a pet but wouldn't her front their crotch area uh rub against something yeah tell her some knowledge that maybe something you know something's appearing something's something's good they can discuss the first first thing that pops up anyway it's a strange story though if the answer is no your boyfriend may have a physical or emotional problem he may be asexual or even gay before you agree to marry him i recommend you schedule some time alone together by spending a few romantic weekends at a hotel or a hotel it may give you a better idea of what your future will be like if you two decide to tie maybe she should tie his penis in a knot well maybe he's already done that it's very it's very odd all right there's a possibility that he's uh exhausting his energies his sensual energies on another woman or maybe he does have a psychological problem but anyway but if you are a woman in such a situation i like i say at least you might rub the front of you against the front of him and see if it goes off come on come on try to seduce him she should grab him by the crotch yeah but who knows he might be one of these guys who fears of the aggressiveness of a woman and that may make the thing go down instead of up is he is he an older man that might be lacking in testosterone doesn't sound like interesting anyway it's another one of those conundrums that we don't know all the answers to conundrums yeah yeah conundrums conundrums conundrum conundrum conundrum conundrum the conundrum cucumber
