 Now I present to you James P. Madonna and the Reference Doctor William J. Eisenman. Okay, welcome everyone. Welcome. Welcome. Welcome. Come well. Welcome. To Uncensored Hard Hitting Truth. I'm your host James P. Madonna of Megalife 21. The hardest hitting internet talk radio station on the planet. And I have a feeling this stupid friggin copy of newsletter censored that's rustling and making noise hitting my shoulder is going to be making noise throughout the whole damn video. It's always sticking out there. Don't touch that. You turned it on. Oh, I'm sorry. Now it's off. It's always something. It's always something. Always something for me to get riled up about. Anyway, we're having a lovely day here at the newsletter censored research center in northeast New Jersey. It is becoming more spring-like. It is the beginning of April 2015. Saturday afternoon. And what's the date? I have no idea. Who the fuck cares? Let's see. It's probably the 11. And we are here. I'm here with my illustrious co-host and mentor and the founder of newsletter censored in 1977. The one and only, the Reverend Dr. William J. Eisenman. How are you feeling this week, sir? I was feeling all right. And now all of a sudden I had a little like a pinch-knitter. But it seems to be gone now. Oh, good. Well, as long as you're comfortable. No, I'm not comfortable throwing a laying down. Not dead, of course, but, you know, that's too comfortable. Oh, man. Yeah, so for those that are new to the show, Uncensored Heart-Hating Truth, is 100% unplanned, ad-libbed, unrehearsed. Non-commercial. Uncensored, non-commercial, no-holds-barred progressive show. We discuss any subject that is important to people, humanity. All right. I want to give a quick shout out and greetings to my friend, Mr. Steven Santangelo. Okay. He's from California originally. He lives in Kentucky. He runs a very successful family-owned organic farm. He's an apiary, has an apiary. Apiest. Is that the guy you put the banner up there with the drip and the honey? The one I want to hint to see. Is there luck or something? Well, the new type of beehive with the tap where you don't have to go into the hive and wear the suit and smoke the bees to calm them down or all that jazz. You have a tap. You turn it on. The honey comes, drips out into the jar. Yeah, that's an Australian invention. That's a new invention. And I showed it to Paul Terras-Walkowinski of Perth, Australia. And he seemed to like it. And Steven Santangelo, who sells organic honey from his farm, I thought it would be of great interest to somebody like him because it's a lot of work and the procedure that you have to go through to collect honey. And don't forget, you're also stealing from the bee because that's their food too. Well, that was my next question. I hope that this new type of easy access hive will allow enough honey and pollen, whatever, to remain in the hive to sustain the bees so they will have enough to eat in order to flourish, in order to thrive. That's my concern. When commercialism is involved, you know what happens. They cut off their nose despite their fees. It's like over-commercial fishermen over-fishing the waters and then all of a sudden, gee, we don't have too many striped bass anymore. We're going to have, they're endangered and we have to restrict fishing of them. They farm fish trout and salmon in Norway. I'm against farming. Feeding them grain. See? See? Disgusting. I don't like it. I don't like it. One bit. Not one bit. So, for a good reason. Now, shout out to Steven Santangelo. Greetings, my friend. He also sells very nice physical fitness equipment, you know, resistant bands that are very high quality, professional issue, a very high quality resistant band. So, I will mention more of that in the future. I want to give a shout out to my good friend, former WWE star and personal trainer, extraordinaire in Boca Raton, Florida, Mr. Ken Thiessen, KT Training to Win, Akari USA. I want to say hello to my very near and dear friend in Osaka, Japan, Miho. Greetings, Miho. A shout out to all of my Facebook group administrators, Sasha Boyle, Joe Stevens, Anthony Laura, Justin Dana Spears, and Jean-Luc O'Donne. Okay, greetings to all of you. I want to start by talking about asking you if you've read the article or have heard of these 11 healthcare professionals that are coming back to the United States from Africa that have Ebola. And instead of the US government, instead of putting them in quarantine in Washington, in a quarantine medical facility, they're putting them up in nearby hotels near the hospital, which means they will be exposed to the public. Not a very irresponsible and very foolish decision if that's the case. Because unless maybe the US government includes with Monsanto who's working on an Ebola vaccine, maybe they wish a new pandemic to take place so that Monsanto can make another killing off of Ebola. Do they have symptoms? Yeah, they have Ebola. Why the hell would they be in hotels near the hospital? Because they came from an area where Ebola was, but that doesn't mean they have symptoms. You know what Christie did to that nurse? She had no symptoms. She understood that well, and she told them to go fuck themselves. She was very irate. Well, yeah, well, you know, he wanted to take away her freedom when she was asymptomatic. Asymptomatic. You know what I mean? Maybe they are. I don't know. I didn't hear that story. Okay. I heard it all. Now, my next monologue, my next series of statements is tied into our new series, Capitalism in a Conkshell, and I would say our ultimate douchebag award. But it's Capitalism in a Conkshell. You got a chiseless Hall of Fame. Now you got a douchebag award? Well, chiseless Hall of Shame is usually consumer-related. Business, yeah. When the consumer gets screwed. But who's the douchebag? Oh, I'm glad you asked. Well, that's what I'm here for. I am glad you asked. Let's start with... Well, before we get on to the douchebags, you know, from what I understand, the man who filmed Eric Garner's death is still fighting to get out of jail. Why isn't Governor Andrew Cuomo stepping in and having him released from jail a long time ago? Because they'll paint Mr. Andrew Cuomo as a hater of the cops. But the cop killed Eric Garner. Unnecessary roughness. What about the cop the other day shoots the guy running away in the back? I think he's going to get prosecuted. They have his picture all over the internet. Yes, the chief said that the video sickened him. But I can guarantee you almost 99% that he's going to get away. An armed gentleman was running away. Flood traffic stopped. Eric Garner was selling loose cigarettes. These are not death penalty issues. Big deal, he was selling cigarettes. And they're dead. All he needed, Eric Garner, all he needed was a warning to stop selling the cigarettes on the street, not to be choked out to death. The poor guy had asthma. Yeah, so, you know, I mean, why are our hero whistleblowers being persecuted so much? Because of Obama. Edward Snowden, who did his job at protecting and defending the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic. And now the whistleblower, well, they're not professional whistleblowers, but people who video bad things happening, bad things happening. They're sure being persecuted. Now you said something about Obama. Well, Obama, under Obama, he has gotten these strict laws against whistleblowers. But whistleblowing is a heroic deed. Or wise. Yeah, how about that? Yeah. Now, before I get on to talking about douchebags. Yeah, well, yeah. U.S. hospitals, American hospitals, charge $800 for an IV bag of simple saltwater that costs them only $1. Now, that shows you where the American healthcare system is at. About $10 for an aspirin. It's a racket. It's a racket, yes it is. It's racketeering. That's exactly what it is. But when Medicare says we don't want to pay that much for it, they don't like that. Why are the insurance companies paying the $800 for an IV bag? Because they get it from you. They just turn around. Instead of arguing with the greedy, hold on, the greedy evil hospital CEOs like all American CEOs and corporate American CEOs are demons, instead of saying no, we're not going to pay $800 for a bag of saltwater. That's an arm. A bag of brine is what it is. Sailing. Where you can make corned beef. You put brisket in the bag of brine with some spices and you got corned beef. Right. They don't question it. They don't contest it. They just turn around and sock it to you. Exactly. They contest you, don't they? Right. The little guy gets fucked again in the capitalist system that we have with the two-party system. Yeah. Yeah. Another Democrat, you know, every week that goes by, I hear about Democrats selling out the people. I hear it all the time. You know, it's incredible, you know. People have to stop thinking that the Democratic Party is the party of FDR. They have to stop this because it's not the case. Yeah, the crumbs are getting smaller and smaller. The crumbs that you get from Democrats are getting fewer and fewer. It used to be a handful of crumbs. Yeah, you ain't got enough now to even follow Hansel and Gretel. Yeah, like during, like John F. Kennedy and Lyndon Baines Johnson, you got a handful of crumbs. Jimmy Carter, you got maybe a half a handful of crumbs, or not even that. Now you get a few crumbs, maybe three of them. Microscopic. Yeah, you need an electron. Nano. Nano crumbs. Nano crumbs. Hey, let's coin it. Let's coin it. Coined. Nano crumbs. Hereby coined on this show, the nano crumbs of today's well-out Democrats. Nano crumbs. You heard it. You heard it first. It's the first. So forget it. They're corporatists. They're completely sold out to the people of the soldiers of Satan. You notice with capitalism, and I got to hold up the conch show, with capitalism today, just think about it, today's media, which is not the liberal media, today's media lies to you. The politicians of the two-party system lie to you. All the pastors that are in the spotlight lie to you. The government lies to you. Advertisement from corporate America lies to you. And who's the father of all lies? Satan. You see how, you see a pattern here? There's a pattern here. Capitalism and a conch show. There's a pattern, sir. We did, capitalism is only like 200 years old or something like that. Really? How the hell did we ever get along without it for thousands of years? Oh, wow. How did we? You know? Yeah, ever since, yeah, 200 years. Adam Smith. And then later on, I and Rand really promoted the hell out of it. Back in the, what, late 50s? 50s. Early 60s? 50s. 50s most of it. She didn't look like a young spring chicken when she was on the talk show in like 60, early 60s. She never looked like a young spring chicken. She looks like a witch, man. She was a witch. She was Medusa, the gorgon with the snake. She was a witch. She was a gorgon. Okay. Okay, on to the douchebags. Ah! Let me get my chilelli. My black-thone chilelli. Douchebag number one. I don't know if this guy is a full-fledged douchebag because he was very honest in his statement. Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Uh, the De Beers diamond mine chairman, Nicky Oppenheimer, made a statement, uh, not recently, but he made a statement. Nonetheless, diamonds are intrinsically worthless. So that means my, uh, my hunch was correct all this time about the big fine jewelry retail scam with all the, uh, pushy, obnoxious and very annoying commercials from Kay Jeweler's Jared. Uh, um, the list goes on and on about the diamond engagement ring racket costing thousands of dollars for the poor suckers, for the men, and the women that make them feel guilty if they don't buy it, they don't buy fine jewelry. The truth is there are so many diamonds in South Africa that they are deliberately controlling the exportation of these mine diamonds just to keep the diamond artificially at a decent price. At a high price so they can quote a precious gem, but in reality diamonds are not a precious gem stone. Well, anything can become a precious stone or what we would call money today. Availability, yeah. It was, uh, cowry shells at one time. Yeah. You know, I mean, uh, porcelain. Right now was, was like money in China. Well, there you go. Porcelain, yeah. Now, um, the silver right now is below its production cost. Right. In other words, it's worth nothing. It's how they expected to go. It's like a game. It's like a big game. That's what it is. I mean, gold is where today, but gold was $35 an ounce at one time. Yeah. Well, gold, precious metals. Supposedly precious metals. Uh, usually they go up in price when something negative or bad happens in the world. It's a hedge. Yeah, but the point of the, the point of it is you have to determine that something is worth something. To be something. Right. Gold. You don't have to say gold. It could be a cowry shell. It could be a clam shell. It could be a conch. It has to be internationally determined. Well, it don't even, because the cowry shell was, uh, in, in, in like some lower or something. Yeah. And it was past this, so it wasn't over here, but... Could be mother of pearl. Could be anything. Mother of pearl shell. It could be, yeah. It could be anything. It could be anything. A regular pearl that you find in the stupid oyster or whatever the hell. Well, now they're farm raised. If they're farm raised, they'll work nothing. Now they're a dime. If you find them in there, they'll work something. Now they're a dime, it doesn't. Yeah. Well, pearls before farm raising, aquaculture used to be very, very valuable. Yes. Now they're farm raised. Yes. You know, I mean, uh, um, you know, it's all a matter of the system. It's all a matter of the setup. You don't have to have capitalism in a conch shell. You can have it in something else. Yeah. If you want that. Hey, did you know the word wampum came from the... There you go. From the New England, the New England Native Americans actually used some of the clam shells as money. A wampum. There you go. The, uh, the qualhogs, the chowder clams. The $24 worth of kawampum buys as, uh, New York Island. The ones with, uh, purple inside. Oh yeah. The Indians were totally ripped off by selling Manhattan. But what I'm saying is it's a game. It's like the stock market. It's a game. It's monopoly. You make certain rules. Yeah. And that's it. It's controls. Yeah. It's rigged. Okay. Now for a couple of real douchebags. Ooh. I mean, you know, uh, they're definitely out there. Um, Arizona Senator Sylvia Allen says church attendance should be mandatory. Since when does going to a building with a pastor in it all dressed up once or twice a week? Since when does that make you a real Christian? It doesn't. Oh, Republican Senator, by the way. Well, of course. Yeah. You think a Democrat would say something like that? Oh, it's just totally. Before anybody says anything about their religion and their church and et cetera, they have to prove that their God exists before. Right. Right. Okay. Prove all things. Hold fast. That which is good. That's Salonians 521. It's right there in the Bible. And the Bible does not mention any form of punishment for gay people. Well, it did once. Yeah, one time. Yeah. Okay. Um, yeah. Tom DeLay made a real douchebag. Tom DeLay or Tim? Who's the right winger? Both of them. Are they brothers? No. Oh, they're not related. Oh, wait a minute. It's Tim Lahey. Oh, Lahey. That's not Tim DeLay. Yeah. Well, of course, you know, there's, for some strange reason, they're really, really preoccupied with gays and gay marriage. Oh, Lord, yeah. I mean, I mean, what about the other sins? Like the Bible is not too keen on divorce, adultery, and a lot of other things. Well, you don't even have to go that far. No, you don't. You have pride. They are being prideful, aren't they, when they were saying, our religion is better than yours? Our. Our God is stronger than yours. What is that? Pride. When the rich, when the elitists say, take possession of the planet Earth and say, our this and our that, it's part of the mentality that because they have a much more material gain than you do, they feel they're better than you. Yes. The Pharisees and the Suddukes felt that way, too. Back when Jesus was going around. See, the point is, these, all these. They like to be seen of men praying in the best seats in the synagogue. Yeah. You know? All these conservatives in a spotlight, whether they be pastors, TV evangelists, or politicians, career politicians, liars for hire, they should work on themselves and worry about saving their own very sinful, natured souls and to be sticking their long Pinocchio nose into other people's private lives. No. They don't worry about the beam in their own eyes. They worry about the little sliver in yours. So they throw stones in glass houses. Oh, dude. Okay. All right. On to the final douchebag. Final? No, no, no. There will be many more. We'll bring them up. Shame on you. Shame. Look, in honor of Sean Morrison, greetings to Sean Morrison. Greetings. Greetings. Shame, shame, shame. He likes to say that. Shame, shame, shame to the newest sellout Democrat, Governor of California Jerry Brown when he made the statement, some people have a right to more... More of a right. Some people have more of a right or the right to more water than others. That's correct. Yes. Which means... That means Nestle. That means... That means a fracker. That... In a way, they're like playing God. They're taking a natural resource that is vital to life itself on this planet, that living creatures have been partaking in since the beginning of time. And now they're saying, I have more of a right to drink water than you. This person has more of a right... Nestle's wants to bottle it. The frackers need to use it to get the oil out. So when I was saying a while back that with this California drought that seems to be connected to climate change, right? Not that it's something. Yeah. This California, this long-term devastating California drought which is only leaving California with one more year of fresh water, supposedly. Okay. Not counting the fact of whether or not they do desalination. Too expensive. They are rationing the water for the common folk but allowing Nestle's, with his the evil douchebag of all time, Peter Braybeck, CEO, and the companies that are fracking to continue supposedly limited rationed California fresh water. Well, of course. Otherwise, where would their campaign money come from? And this is the Moonbeam so-called progressive liberal Democrat from way back, Jerry Brown. Now, do you see a pattern here? Jerry Brown sells out. Hillary Clinton sells out to Monsanto. Many Democrats are choosing corporations over the mainstream, their voters, the little guy. So forget about the progressive liberal Democrat. You're not going to find it there anymore. You've got to go to an independent like Bernie Sanders. You know, so, you know, Elizabeth Warren, she's a good egg, she's a good egg, but she's too gentle, she's too kind. Like, she'll use the term my Republican colleagues or she'll, instead of saving, talking about the rich, you know, she said the word fannies instead of ass, you know, she's too kind. Too diplomatic when it comes to demons. There you go, there you go. Demons, the enemy. Because the Democrats, for all their flaws and problems and et cetera, they have an idea and respect the art of governing, whereas the Republicans do not. Well, they still think they can negotiate with the Republicans. That's correct. These people have no intention of meeting Democrats halfway and compromising. They have no intention. It's their way or the highway. And they will not compromise with you. Hey, can you compromise with terrorists? Can you compromise with hardened criminals? You can't compromise with evil. Else you become just like the evil poison. If you compromise with a serial killer and a serial killer, you know, I was all dressed up with a big smile on his face, clean-shaven, and he says, you know what, I've seen the light. I agree with you. I'm going to change my ways. You think that if you let him go, he's going to stop doing what he was doing before, or if he was a pedophile or a pedophile killer or murderer or something, you think just by talk, which is cheap, and him negotiating with you and saying yes to you and agreeing with you, you think it's going to change? You can't change evil. Not if he's a sociopath because he will just say what he has to to get out of the problem. Yeah, sociopath, which is very common with conservatives like Dick Cheney. With politicians, yeah. Yeah, Dick Cheney. The Vicar. Right, maybe possibly. I think Dick Cheney kind of like boasts around G.W. Bush. He was the president. In reality, man. In reality, yes. Yes. Just like under Reagan, I forget his name, but he used to stand by Reagan when Reagan was making a speech somewhere or something, and he would tell Reagan things. He would say, you've got to hurry up here. We've got to get going. He was in charge, not Reagan. Okay? Right. God, Mr. Godman, just tear down this wall. And then you have, of course, I won't even mention, because it's a waste of time, all the flag-waving tea bagger, you know, gun nuts out there that are really brain-sub-deficient. It doesn't even pay to talk about them, but it was a ritty, it's really... The... Anyway, I was going to mention something, but I got to mention some... If you eat ice cream, you'll have a brain freeze? No. I don't have the man's name written down, so it's not fair to bring it up, but a gentleman that had several popular books out on exposing the truth about 9-11 was found murdered. Him and his two lovely younger children, his daughter and his son, and the family dog, all four of them were found murdered, and they said it looks like a CIA hit. Yeah, of course. They're called the Black Ops. Yes. Now, one of your... I believe it was on your group, one of the gentlemen that you have involved there. Yeah. Somebody had mentioned something about 9-11, and I guess a video or something that sort of exposes the truths and stuff like that. And of course, he was... Ah, yeah, I can't believe that. You truly believe that stuff. Our government will lie to us. We'll never kill 3,000 innocent people. 3,000 male bar people, yeah. Well, what do you think Barbara Walters said to Jesse Ventura when he was on the view? Same thing. Not only him, but that idiot on... Hassledoosh? On Fox knows the guy. The guy on Fox News who doesn't like Ventura either and got into him with... Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly? The Navy SEAL crap all, Kyle. Oh, about Mr. Kyle, yeah. Kyle did not knock out Jesse Ventura or punch him, you know, in the bar. That was what the lawsuit was really about, right? Oh, that was his lawsuit, yes. But Jesse Ventura goes on into detail that Kyle is a... A liar. Embellishes a lot, he exaggerates. He was a liar. He's a liar. Yeah, a liar. Anyway, you see this? It's a siphon. Everything you've learned about trickle-down economics, whether it came from Reagan or not, is a lie. It was all lie. We actually have siphon up to the top one or 20% economics. The devil's economics. Capitalism is... In a conch. In a conch shell. In a conch shell. Capitalism is the devil's economics. We've proved it many times on this show. Now let us sink our teeth into these readings. Sink them, brother. Sink them. Or piranha teeth. I used to have a pet piranha. Oh, my God, a pet piranha. Come on. What the hell did I call them? Captain Blood. Because I started out with a small school and they ate each other even though I fed them very well. You see, piranhas, they tolerate one another. How the hell do they float around in schools? They feed in schools because... Well, in the wild, it's every piranha for himself. Yeah, but they're in the big school whenever you see them eating up a guy that falls into the water or something. Well, that's because there's plenty of room for them to spread out and not... Maybe in an aquarium, it's territorial situation. They feel... But why would they start eating one another after I fed them a very healthy meal, I mean a very ample size meal, and they would eat each other. Nevertheless, they would take bites out of one another, their tank mates. Eventually, I had one left, which I assume was the toughest, was the alpha. And I called them Captain Blood and he used to let me pet him and everything. I bonded with my piranha. Oh, my God. Yeah, believe it or not. But I gave him... I didn't give him live food like the pet shops. They said, oh, you got to get live food. You got to buy live goldfish. Now it's a bullshit. It's retail bullshit. I used to give my piranha cheap goldfish pellets, you know, koi pellets that you throw upon fish. I gave him... I used to make very lean meatballs, raw meatballs. Oh, you've ate. Yeah. Somebody put up a video yesterday on Facebook. These two ducks were feeding from troughs that someone put on the edge of water so that they could dip in and free feed. Yeah. And all these koi were coming around them and everything. And the ducks were taking the food and feeding to the koi. I saw that as cute, man. Yeah, I understood that. Yeah, that was amazing. That was really cute. Well, ducks... ducks are nice, are very nice animals. They're not stupid at all. I mean, I've hand-fed a wild, mallard duck many, many times. She gently took... it was her and the male was right behind her and she just gently tilted her head and took the plantain chip out of my fingers. Right from my fingers. She just took it, you know, slowly turned her head and I hand-fed her, you know, so... In the 1970s, we suffered through stagflation. High inflation, soaring unemployment, stagnant economic growth. Pretty much the worst of all worlds. Today, we have nearly opposite conditions, which should, in theory, suffer the best of all worlds. Low inflation, falling on employment and reasonably steady economic growth. Yet, somehow today's economy feels pretty shabby. Just to say the least. The crucial missing component of good news today, of course, is wages. Wage and salary growth have been pitifully slow in an economic expansion almost at its sixth birthday. And compensation still has not recovered the ground lost during the Great Recession. The most recent data available show that the median U.S. household still earns less than its counterpart did at the turn of the century, after adjusting for inflation, of course. But there are signs we may finally be turning a corner. You may have to squint to see them, but they are there. In the otherwise mediocre March jobs report, in surveys about compensation expectations and in tangible wage gains at the bottom of the income distribution. Last week's jobs report was mostly disappointed. As it revealed the nation's employers broke their year-long streak of adding at least 200,000 jobs per month, buried in the report, was some encouraging news about earnings. In March, average hourly earnings for private employees rose $0.07 or about 0.3% to $24,086. Sure, it's not much, but it's more than analysts forecast. Other recent Labor Department releases have also shown compensation quietly rising. These reports may be a harbinger of far bigger raises to come. In surveys, consumers and employers have become increasingly likely to say they expect compensation to rise in the coming months. In the conference board's consumer confidence survey, consumers are asked whether they expect their income to be higher or lower six months from now. The net share expecting a raise has bounced around a bit from month to month but tended upward for more than a year. As of March, the percentage saying they expected their income to rise was 8.5%. Higher than the percentage saying they expected it to fall, more than double the difference a year ago. You can see patterns in the National Federation of Independent Businesses Monthly Survey of small business owners. These numbers are also noisy from month to month, but they generally show that employers expect worker compensation to rise. Such expectations tend to be self-fulfilling. If both workers and their bosses start paying negotiations from the premise that wages are going to rise, then well, wages are probably going to rise. Another sign that widespread wage increase in the pipeline comes from the low wage sector through both public policy initiatives and decisions made voluntarily by private companies. In the absence of a federal minimum wage increase in almost six years, some cities and states have decided to take matters into their own hands. In 2014 alone, 14 states and the District of Columbia decided to lift their wage floors. A handful of cities have raised or are in the process of raising their minimum wages to as much as $15 an hour. What they do! That's still below the standard of the cost of living. Still below the cost of living. What's the projected federal poverty level for a family of three, like 20,000 or something? A little over 20,000, I think. It might be 18 for three, four for 20. Well, I don't know, this article said three, but still, still, I mean, you know, $15 is way better than 7.25. But it's not enough. But even without force to do so, a growing number of large, influential, low wage corporations have also publicly pledged to give their workers raises. In February, Walmart announced that it would increase wages for 500,000 employees to at least $9 an hour. Big fucking deal. Wow, the Walton family wants to increase it that much to a whopping $9 an hour. Maybe, you know, like Henry Ford, maybe then if you increase their wages to $9, they can go into Walmart and buy stuff. They can buy their $10 jeans. They can afford their $10 jeans. Then, less than a week later, the parent company, TJ Maxx, Marshals and Home Goods made a similar declaration. Soon, Target followed, not and suit and in suit as did McDonald's last week. At least for 90,000 workers employed at corporate-owned locations, though not those employed by its franchisees. To some extent, these announcements may be driven by a desire to cultivate goodwill in the face of much bad PR about treatment and compensation of low-wage workers. But the primary motivation for these firms, as with those smaller companies surveyed by the National Federation of Independent Business, is likely the bottom line. To attract and retain talent, especially in the tightening labor market, employers know they need to start offering better pay. These actions could have knock-on effects throughout the economy, both by putting upward pressure on wages in more mid-level jobs and by filtering through to consumer prices. The whites of the nation's eyes, in other words, may be visible sooner than we realize. You can be sure the Federal Reserve is paying attention. If wages do not keep up with the cost of living, then the economy is not stimulated and will therefore suffer, because people will have less and less and less surplus cash, less spending money, surplus spending money to put back into the economy to the point where they tighten their belt so hard where they can only afford to survive, barely, if they're lucky, then there is no money put into the economy to stimulate it. We are a consumer-driven economy. Mass production needs mass consumption. Yeah. Almost three-quarters of our economy is consumer-driven. If you run a bakery or of your butcher or a fishmonger or whatever and you're not selling out your inventory in a timely fashion, then you're going to lose money. You're going to go out of business. That's what happens. You know? That's what happens. Before I forget, a really king of a Republican out in one of the western states. I don't know if the article mentioned his name, his or her name, but there was a Republican that is pushing for a law that will restrict people on food stamps from buying steak and seafood. They want to prohibit people on food stamps from buying steak and seafood. I told you. I guess it's a big luxury for the poor. I told you. One of the things that drives Republicans against the poor is that they think they're getting something for nothing. Wasn't it Joni Ernst that said I know more than one Republican said this that a poor family owning a refrigerator and an air conditioning is considered a luxury that they don't deserve? I guess now they want poor people not to be able to eat steak and seafood. What's next? They don't want them to eat good food. That's for certain. But the problem is, these same people who do these things and want to do these things against the poor usually call themselves good Christians and et cetera, et cetera. Now you know what the Bible says about a good Christian. He is supposed to give his two coats to the poor and invite the poor to meet at his table. Well, you could be sure that these wealthy Republicans are living high on the hog, them and their whole families. But they feel that the poor should not be able to... I guess they feel steak and seafood is too much of a luxury for the poor to buy with food stamps. And what I say is make these rich career politicians in Washington in the Senate and the Congress make them pay for their own health insurance and retirement. They can afford it. And they're eating in the dining room. They get free food in the dining room. Free food, free... Even donuts and coffee and pastries are taxpayer funded. But you see punishing them does no good because they are out of their minds. Well, it would save... And they get away with it. It would save tax dollars in a smart way when you take somebody who's a public servant and you make them a real true public servant by paying them less than this 175,000 a year. Or if they... If you can't do that, if you can't make them take a pay cut, freeze their pay and make them pay for their own retirement and health insurance, they could do it. Well, you can do any of those things. But the point of it is, as I keep saying, you have to change the system. But you're not being real unless you go to where the money's going. And that's the military. So if you're going to start cutting, that's where you cut first. You mean like a trillion spent on a Lockheed Martin plane that is not used? F-35. That is never used? Never will be used. And never will be used? Because it was a job program and making contractors rich. That's all that stuff is from the Pentagon. What was that plane that was never used during Reagan, the B-2 bomber? B-2, correct. Was it the B-2 bomber? What about Vietnam? They were using the B-... What's your McAulins, those big guys? B-52. B-52s from World War II. They would drop old-fashioned bombing, drop in tonnage. But now you have to have these smart weapons but to spend... Forget about trillions, to spend billions or millions on a weapon that will never see action. Compared to taking that waste of money, waste of tax dollars and putting it to something that we need, something useful like roads and infrastructure, bridges, feeding the homeless, taking care of the veterans, health care. But the contractors give campaign moolah. So here we... We're back to the old-fashioned political corruption in capitalism. They're bought out. That's it. And I think Jerry Brown was bought out too for him to say what he said and to allow Nestle's and the Frackers to continue to use up California fresh water. Anyway, it's time for the Reverend Doctor I'll take care of that later. It's time for the Reverend Doctor, William J. Eisenman's gastronomic delight known as lunch. And we will be joined by our new segment of how to defeat a conservative with the biblical proof slide show followed by our commercial voiceover artist William H. Morrill III.

All you do is hit the pause button and read. When folks in North Jersey think of looms, they usually picture a scenic Canadian lake and haunting calls. It's a water. What's their sound like? It's a waterfowl. A loom. I don't know what they sound like. We also can see these athletic diving birds in this region. Actually, two kinds of looms. The red-throated and the common. But these water birds can be tough to find because they seldom stick around. They just pass through in migration. The much larger common looms have been heading back north of Lake. This accounts for recent sightings at the Lincoln Park Community Lake in Pompton Lake Celery Farm Natural Area in Allendale. Celery Farm. That's probably where they got the word loony from. Lake Tapan. No, no, I'm sorry. They're from Lunatic, as in the loom. And Mawa's Lake Henry. My mistake. Mawa's Lake Henry. The Allendale loom stayed only a few minutes. The two Lincoln Park looms hung out for more than a week. Lincoln Park looms. It's when the looms try to land or take off that problems result. You mean hunters? The most interesting thing about looms is their feet are so far back on their bodies that they can only take off from water. What do you mean so far? Oh, oh, their legs are positioned like almost on their ass. Ah. Says Chris Slossy, the executive director of the Raptor Trust. Located south of Marstown. If they become grounded, they are essentially stuck and cannot return to the air. It's kind of like a bat having to climb up on a tree in order to take off. Bats have to fall at a certain height to fly. When we get looms in their in for rehabilitation, it's almost always because they have become grounded. Several years ago, for example, a state environmental official had to assist the common loom at White's Pond in Walthwick. The problem? The pond was too small for the bird to take off. Hmm. The loom was coaxed into nearby Ohulcus Brook, where a long watery runway awaited. Having legs so far back may sound like a big drawback, but Sussie says it's usually to the loom's advantage. With their strong legs set very far back on their bodies, they can swim and paddle and steer underwater with a great deal of speed and agility, which allows them to pursue their prey, primarily fish, very effectively. The loom's leg location can also affect their landings. Such was the case of a red, ferocious loom which mistook a huge puddle for a pond in a church parking lot in Hillsdale. Kind of a rough landing, on that hard-ass fall. Donna Pontrelli of Franklin Lakes Animal Hospital picks up the story. Because the loom's legs were so far back on its body, it had abrasions on its chest from falling forward on landing. And since it couldn't take off from the puddle, its feet got stuck when the water froze. Tycho Animal Control brought the bird to the Animal Hospital, which then sent it to the Raptor Trust. The bird was treated and released a few days later. A Raptor Trust Facebook post noted what a tough winter it had been for waterfowl. Among the birds that received treatment were two ruddy ducks, a black duck, one gadwall, a lesser scop, and a red-throated loom that was frozen to the ground. That's daffy, the black duck, right? Yeah, and had to be chiseled out. Oh. Pontrelli saw the irony of it all. Here is this incredible bird with all sorts of physical attributes that enable it to fly and dive so well yet they need a kind of human, a kind human, excuse me, if they get in trouble. Oh, dear. What do you got there? I got another animal here, but I'm not going to read that one right now because I want to break it up a little bit. Mike Kelly's column provided a very good synopsis of the situation with United States Senator Bob Menendez, Democrat of New Jersey. Perhaps the questions that need to be answered in these cases are if Menendez and Ferrerio were carpenters or factory workers like their respective fathers, would they have been able to do the same favors in the spirit of friendship without receiving any type of compensation in return? Also, while in positions of political power, have they done the same types of favors for other constituents without receiving any benefit? The records articles about the indictment of U.S. Senator Bob Menendez outlined facts in the 14 count federal indictment and mentioned a constitutional clause pertaining to the case. How does the Justice Department decide whom to indict? There appears to be some question whether Menendez's opposition to White House policy on Iran and Cuba influenced the department to select this particular case at this time. Most people believe that congressmen and senators are influenced by donations to their election campaigns or by other favors extended to them. Some also react favorably to certain requests because they're influenced on behalf of these donors. Some of this information is not public knowledge. But the behavior of congress is of extreme importance. The Justice Department should be a watchdog to rein in bad behavior. Does the department select its cases without undue political pressure? Full scrutiny of donations and favors received by our representatives as well as their voting records would go a long way to reduce any abuses. It also could shed some light on the department's basis for selecting cases for prosecution. One supporter of U.S. Senator Bob Menendez was quoted as saying, Others have done worse! That's a foolish argument. Menendez was charged with crimes and now he will go through a lengthy and expensive legal process. What he should do is resign immediately. Also, there are few burning issues that need to be addressed. We should get rid of political action committees, many of which lead to corruption. Limit campaign denotions, donations to a checkout box on tax forms. Also, sitting elected officials should not be allowed to spend time raising funds for their party. President Obama has said we need better politics. He's wrong. We need better politicians. Starting at the top. I think that all politicians, no matter who they are, Democrat, Republican or independent, should be held accountable for their actions and all should be investigated. It doesn't matter how minor or how severe and that includes people like Governor Scott Walker and Chris Christie of New Jersey. Every one of them should be held accountable, not only the Democrats. Well, to do that, you would need an independent agency to be able to carry that out. And you don't have one. Justice Department is not independent. F.B.I. is not independent. That's why the USDA and the FDA are involved in so much chicanery because there is nobody to oversee any of them. That's correct. No oversight. So that's like if you own a company and let's say you own a bar restaurant and you hire someone in your lost prevention security department to spy, let's say, on the bartender to make sure they're not stealing from you. And that spy, that lost prevention person is offered some freebies and then they turn around and steal from you and there's nobody to oversee the lost prevention security person that's overseeing the other employees. It happened in New York with that one crane. The inspector gave him a clean bill of health. When the crane was crap and it fell down. Yeah. You know, that happens all the time, I'm sure. Does columnist Bridget Harrison argue that what is fair for one is fair for others or does she indict all similarly situated before evidence is presented? When she argues about shortfalls in the indictment is she suggesting that it lacks merit or is she offering food for thought about the business as usual reality regarding the way our political process functions? Is Harrison an advocate for changing the way government works or does she hope to change what serves as custom and practice throughout destruction? Are large contributions expressions of thanks for past benefits and favors or are they to bring future advantages yet to be identified? Perhaps it is naive to suggest but it may be a little of each expectation and gratitude. No. It's bribery, clear and simple. Okay? Yeah. Bribery. Yeah, whether you get fancy and call it a subsidy doesn't matter, it's a payoff, it's a bribery and it takes two to do the tango when it comes to that. You know, you need a dishonest politician to take the bribe but shame on you for offering the bribe to sell out the politician who's supposed to be having the people's best interest at heart. Texas lawmakers and top business leaders vowed on Tuesday to kill two proposed constitutional amendments they say would promote anti-gay discrimination and could lead to backlash similar to recent reactions in Indiana and Arkansas. Opponents say the proposals sponsored by Republicans represented Matt Krause and Senator Donna Campbell would morph the business-friendly Lone Star State into a costly state for corporations and negatively affect tourism. Texas Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1999 allows a Texas resident to sue the state and local governments if he or she feels that a government entity is burdening religious beliefs or practices. Lauded by gay rights advocates as carefully crafted the act explicitly states it cannot be used to undermine federal or state civil rights or take precedence over local ordinances. The proposed amendments do not explicitly say the law cannot be used to justify discrimination based on sexual orientation. Mirroring the original language of the laws passed recently in Indiana and Arkansas that sparked boycotts and strong opposition, those states, Republican-controlled legislatures, both revised their laws last week. Krause said his proposed amendment would give constitutional strength to Texas's law. It would also trump local laws, including cities. Non-discrimination ordinances already in place such as Houston, Dallas, Austin, and San Antonio. Dozens of states have similar religious freedom laws. Largely modeled after a federal law enacted in 1993 with broad bipartisan support. Hate that word. Texas is one of the 29 states that have no protections for gays and lesbians in non-discrimination laws. Similar debates are going on in other state houses as Republican governors in Michigan and North Dakota are urging lawmakers to extend anti-discrimination protections for gays. Flanked by Democratic lawmakers at a news conference, Texas Association of Business CEO Bill Hammond called the GOP-backed measures misguided legislation. Dallas Democratic Representative Rafael Anjia said that as in Indiana and Arkansas, people in Texas are concerned about the economy. He predicted that a bipartisan group of legislators will stop this thing in the house. Krause said he is confident in his proposal. He said the amendments wouldn't change the protections already in place. They're worried about the economy in Texas. From when I was told first hand that the border patrol is very laid-back, easy-going, permissive over in San Antonio, not San Antonio, I'm sorry, by the El Paso-Wara's border because every week, multitudes of Mexican families drive into Texas to go shopping in the United States to go to the malls and department stores and then they drive back with their merchandise. It's good for the economy of Texas in that region, but also what else is amazing is these Mexicans that drive over the border seem to have the money to buy products in the United States. So what I was told was not all of Mexico is destitute and poor. Well, there are 35 families that supposedly own everything. So I mean there are lots of families that just load up their vehicles and shop and go back. What is convenient for America's wealthy, whether they be conservative or not, let's say they're conservative and they're bigoted as usual, they don't have a problem with immigrants of color if there's money to be made or if they can exploit them for cheap pay. They don't have a problem with their skin color, with them coming into the United States, but if they're not exploiting them and they're not making money off of them, then they have a problem. So hypocrisies, if you had to sum up conservatives with one word, I would say it would be hypocrisy. Well, I would say evil. Well, they are downright evil. Hypocrisy is an evil thing. Self-righteousness is an evil thing. Selfishness out of virtue, these are all evil. Hypocrisy is sort of tied into lying when you think about hypocrisy. Well, it is a lie. You're living a lie. You're living a lie. You're a hypocrite. You're bearing false witness to your neighbor, right? Yes. Phony baloney. That's what you are, phony baloney. You're not practicing what you're preaching. They get away with it because no one comes around and points it out. And if anybody points it out, the U.S. media doesn't give equal face time. That's correct, because then they say you're attacking their religion. You're attacking their cult. You're a hater. What about Christians that really adhere to the Bible? Aren't they attacking real Christians? No, they don't. They will point it up to their own, but they don't really go out of their way. In other words, I know of a Biblical sect, and when they use clients and attribute things to certain people, it's always from the right wing. It's always Fox News. It's always the right wing. So they, too, have a bias. You've got to be careful. Yeah. You've got to be careful. I hear that... Well, I mean, I read a very emotional chat thread, if you want to call it that, on Facebook, where African Americans were talking about the racism within their own race with blacks of different shades of color. Lighter versus brown skin versus dark. You know what I mean? It happens all the time. Oh, this 2016 presidential campaign is going to be an endless supply of comedy material for everyone because of the characters that are running for president. Remember that Florida pastor who burned the Koran? He's running. That goofball with the Yosemite Sam? Yep. What is it like? Handlebar musta? He's running for president. He was told not to do it, but he publicly barbecued the Koran on church grounds, Baptist church, I think. Yeah. And caused a lot of trouble, of course. I mean, these are, these zealots think they have a bad phone to God. They're dangerous. Yeah. They've been dangerous in history and it's still dangerous. Well, first of all, you know they don't have a bad phone to God. And second of all, no religion has ever been proven. So why is it relevant to combine religion or cults with politics? Strength of the nation. Why do you think Constantine did it? Well, it enforces what? The fascism? The fascism of the former government? It enforces whoever's on the top. They're going to remain on the top. What about all those... They're going to tell you what to do. You appreciated that one article about all the quotes from the founding fathers of the United States are quotes that right-wing conservatives would not like to hear. They'd never use, yeah. And they definitely were very specific about combining church and state. Of course, because they looked at history and saw all the trouble that it's made when you do that. It's not. America, according to the founding fathers, was not, is not a Christian nation. These zealot nuts want to make it a Christian nation. Their Christianity, again. Their Christianity. Their Christianity is not biblical. Yeah. Well, this right-wing... Their Christianity is of their traditions. Now, this right-wing goofball, instead of posting what he was telling me in private on the group, he was trying to convince me to show me Bible verses that a hell similar to a Dante's Inferno exists where he mentioned a verse about the worm, is not consumed by the flames, something like a description of a hell. Are you familiar with this? Yes, I am. The thing of it is, these things that he's talking about, obviously you have to resort to an immortal soul. And if you have an immortal soul, you need no resurrection. And all through the Bible, there is a promise of a resurrection. Right. So how can you have that contradiction working in your brain? So maybe that verse about the worm is not consumed by the torment of the flames. Maybe it refers to the lake of fire. The lake of fire burns the wicked up into stubble and blows away. But these verses that he threw out, he's giving you an interpretation of them. Yeah. Yeah, so you don't listen to that. Right. You listen what the Bible says. Right. There is a verse in the Bible concerning the Trinity. It is a fraud. It is a forgery. You got to watch. Yeah. You got to, in that particular verse, you have to go... I'm not sure if it's in the Old Testament or the New Testament, but whatever it is, you have to go back to the original, either Greek or Hebrew, and see what word they are translating hell from. Could be the grave. Hey, 80's the grave. In the Greek, that's what the word is that they translate hell from. And of course when Jesus was resurrected, he was resurrected bodily, physically. He left the tomb physically. There was no immortal soul or spirit that flew out of his body, corpse. No, he was around 40 days hanging around in a bodily form. He hadn't yet got up to heaven to be glorified. Right. He was in a bodily form at that time. But Jesus is a special case. Yeah. Because Jesus was a God before he became a human. Well, he was born without sin. But what does that have to do with being a God? I just made the statement, that's all. Well, don't make that kind of a statement. You're changing the subject. He was a God. John 1 verse 1. In the beginning was the word and the word was with thought. What the fuck are you yelling at me for? What does this have to do with anything? Because you changed the subject. I hear you. I told you a very profound statement. What do you want me to do? I'm listening to you. You're being recorded. I hear you. But you changed the subject. All right. I know. Jesus was a God. You see what religion does to everybody? Makes them turn into... That's not religion. Makes them ferocious. That's not religion. That's a statement of biblical fact. What the hell do you want me to do? It's a statement. Why do you have to scream for? I'm being emphatic. No, you're yelling at me. You're looking right at me. Yelling doesn't mean yelling. All right. He was the logo. You are yelling now. He was the word. Oh. If you yell, it's fine. If I yell, oh, I'm being a meanie. I didn't say anything like that. I don't mind you yelling. What do you want me to do? He was the logo. He was the subject. He was the word. Malchizedek turned into a flesh and blood form. He was a God turned into a human form. I know that. That's an operator. Why does that have to do with what you said afterwards? See? Nothing. This is a profound truth that is not understood. As long as what I said was a fact. Now, if I was saying... If I was giving you misinformation... I don't know if it was a fact because I don't even remember what the hell he said. All I know is it changed the subject. All right. What about the... I said Jesus was a special case. That's why he was still around here, walking around 40 days with the apostles after he was resurrected. He had more work to do after the death, the sacrifice. But he was in human form. But it was also... His God stuff was there. Wow. When he walked on the earth, the fact that he performed miracles was proof that his God stuff was there. He did not produce anything of himself. The Father did it all through him. But you just told me... He did not say he did it. He, the Spirit that became Jesus was the... Malchizedek was the logos. The word. Why does he need... Why did all his powers have to come from God? If God and the Word are equal... He was human at this time. Equal deities. Get this through your head. He was human. So he needed assistance at that time. That's correct. He told the apostles any number of times if you had the faith. You could move that mountain over there. All right. If you want to talk to the folks more about it, you can. I have to go to the restroom, but continue with the reading. I'll be right back. Sorry about that, people. I got to go. I am the mother of an 18-year-old daughter. Her dad and I are divorced, and she lives with him. We were married 20 years, and I know he's a good parent, except for one thing. My daughter has told me her father and his partner sometimes engage in very loud love-making when she's in her room. And it embarrasses her. She's shy to begin with, so she hasn't said anything to him. I feel angry and frustrated because I don't know if I should say something to him about it. I have suggested she put on some loud music or use headphones if she can't bring this up with him. I think she wants me to intercede, but I don't feel it's my business to do so. Can these adults be that clueless? Please help. This is Dear Abby's answer to the loud love-making. Yes, adults can be that clueless. Her father and his partner may not realize how much noise they make. Headphones and turning on loud music are good suggestions, but remember that clear communication is important in relationships, both personal and professional. At 18, your daughter is old enough to start speaking up for herself. Encourage her to talk about this problem privately with her father. If she can't, then you should handle this for her. Well, you know, it had to do with other people hearing the sexual intercourse, the sounds of sexual intercourse. Of daddy and his partner. A person can get laid and not have to scream and wail and moan so loudly unless the walls are like paper thin and there's no sound insulation at all. It could be difficult to muffle, but you don't have to scream like you're making a porno movie. What if this is part of their scene? They're fucking assholes then. They've got to be considerate of others that might be hearing them. They are being emphatic. They're being douchebags. They're being douchebags. You know? Like the obscene artist. What was his name? Megal Thorpe? Maple. Maple Thorpe that put the crucifix in the jar of urine. He had to show his creativity and be offensive all at the same time and disrespect a religion. So anyway. Why is that offensive? Putting the crucifix in urine is a very disrespectful gesture of Jesus. He didn't put a tree in urine with Jesus hanging on a tree as the Bible says. While he put an image of Jesus being crucified in a urine. On a crucifix. A cross. Which he was not. See what you're doing here? I know you're an artist. You're not damn right. I'm an artist. I know you know how freedom of expression will be protected. How eccentric artists can be and it's fine to be an independent, critical, free thinker and express yourself but a person can also be an obnoxious asshole prick. But you didn't say that. You said he offended a religion. He did not. Because the cross is not part of the Christian religion. Well, Jesus on the cross is definitely a symbol. He was hung on a tree. You just feel that people need to blatantly do their thing and that's it. They also don't have to have people going around blaming them for doing something they did not do. That makes sense. Now, if somebody's woman is a screamer when she's getting banged, porked, it is possible for her to have an orgasm and keep it down. That is quite possible. You know what I mean? So anyway, I have to put a little upfront here and there because I don't have the other part of this article. It seems, excuse me, that a wild turkey has been roaming the closer supermarkets parking lot. Mascot. We have them right here in town by us. Well, Washington Downship a few years ago had Eileen, I believe. She had something wrong with her leg and she was hanging around on a corner and everything. This coyote in our town, too, believe it or not, I found out, yeah. So anyway, wild birds are protected by the states. Hunting and animal cruelty laws apply, but such friendly and prolonged human interactions with wildlife are another matter. In the case of Tom Tom, that's what they've named the turkey, the State Department of Environmental Protection is issuing a firm reminder that you're not supposed to feed wildlife. That's true. People go into the A&P and they are the shopping market, whatever it is there, and they buy corn and grain and then they come out and they feed the turkey. Well, a turkey is not like feeding, trying to feed a coyote or a black bear. I mean, it's a bird. Well, they don't want you to do it. They don't want you to do it. But they're very likeable. You know, it's like feeding a bunny rabbit. They're very pleasant, likeable animals. So anyway, there's no dangers, what I'm saying. Nice he may be, but the DAP would prefer that people keep their distance from the large bird. They don't want a whole menagerie of turkeys sticking around because the birds will get used to this and they will be moochers like the pelicans. Yeah, yeah, my conservative aunt called pelicans landing at the marina in Florida, moochers, freeloaders. Keep their distance from the large birds, strutting fearlessly through the parking lot and sometimes out onto Demarest Avenue. We have tons of Canadian geese here in town. Where he is known to have caused traffic jams that have nothing to do with cranberries. Turkeys can start getting aggressive. When they get used to people they lose their fear and they can attack a person. They've been known to go out to cars to peck at tires and at people and there's a risk of an accident. We know he's there. And if we feel he's in danger or he shows signs of aggression officers from the Fish and Wildlife Division may go and remove him to a wildlife preserve. They're very beautiful. The male turkey with them when they puff up and their plume opens up. Even though state conservation law bans the feeding of all wildlife including Tom Tom and even technically the gold finches carnals and other birds that gather at your backyard feeders. Why do you think the wild mallard ducks don't leave over here by the creek or the brook, whatever you want to call it they don't leave because people these goofballs are on here keep on feeding it feeding them. Of course these people have totally brain-dead assholes that they feed them white bread that they should not even be eating but nevertheless the birds get used to it. Some wild birds are actually they use intelligence they hang around fast food parking lots around New Jersey seagulls they're there waiting for somebody to drop french fries on the lot. There is no state mandated penalty for feeding anything except bear. Yeah that's a problem. In Eileen's case, that's the other turkey I mentioned the community's total acceptance resumed after she was returned to her customary corner since then her legend dissolves into uncertainty and maybe even a happy ending. Ruth Carino the Carino, a township resident former veterinary technician who regularly fed Eileen said last time I saw her two years ago she was with a male turkey someone said they saw her with a chick you could tell the male from female and the bird family instantly but then I don't know somebody else told me they saw a woman in a van near her I don't know if somebody took her I was told it might have been an animal control I'm not really sure I still look for her as for Tom Tom the offerings of bread crumbs bird seed and corn left by shoppers in small piles in the parking lot haven't ruffled the feathers of any local law enforcement authorities so the romance and bird continues I love him said Katie Dennis of Rivervale who sees Tom Tom often when she parks her car in the lot to start her daily commute to public transportation into New York City I want to adopt him here we go people treating animals like they were children but Dennis said she was very worried about the welfare because he goes out into the middle of the road all the time you could get it by a car they're not the brightest animals Bill Hurley a local contractor said he had been seeing the large turkey in the parking lot for three or four months he's docile he doesn't bother anybody he doesn't travel very far all alone he's not part of a flock he's soul he's not injured is he asked Christine Howell a visitor from Rockland County her brow furrowed with concern as she looked carefully at the turkey sitting and preening its brown black and white feathers on the lot's cold asphalt no no Hurley assured her he's fine you'll get fed oh yes people feed him all the time I'm scared to get run over said Carol Zucchino up close to her Carol Zucchini Zucchino I think animal control should come and get him and take him to Van Son or someplace where he'll be safe Margaret Cooper of Hallworth said she had seen Tom Tom often but never liked that she said gesturing toward the bird sitting on the paper I'm wondering if he's been hit a short time later the turkey motivated by inclinations unknown and unknowable to more humans arose and took a few steps on its impressively clawed feet then tucked its right leg up into its lavage plumage and stood for a while on one leg casually watching cars and a large delivery truck when their ways around him people go into the A&P and buy things for him Cooper said I saw someone buy a bag of frozen corn and put it out what the hell frozen corn what idiots and Tom Tom returns the sympathico relation albeit in his solid wild turkey way indeed he appeared completely indifferent as a man drove slowly by in a luxury sedan it's almost finished lowered his window and advise the good nature league hey use the crossing lane they expect all this compliance from the turkey of course they are beautiful birds you know the males anyway Mr. what you call it the founding father with the electricity I'm a citizen founding father founding father of electricity Nikola Tesla founding father of this nation you said the word electricity no I didn't I said with electricity involved with electricity oh Benjamin Franklin lying in the kite he wanted the turkey to be our national symbol instead of the eagle the bald eagle well they're both indigenous to this part of the world and they're both beautiful birds I mean you know especially when they're sitting on my table all brown and succulent now you just reminded me I have a huge package of turkey wings that I should defrost and cook like a pot roast on top of the stove maybe I'll do that not so much on turkey wings the whole turkey is well turkey wing I would say it's like crossing the dark meat with the white meat it's not as white as the breast but it's not as dark as the leg the drumstick it's actually a calf of the turkey anyway what do you got there any heavy duty stuff that's it thank you for joining us for Uncensored Heart Hitting Truth we'll see you next time God willing and Happy Spring and you know I know people are starting to get their their gardening their properties cleaned up landscapers are very busy and people who garden I salute you people who have victory gardens and I think we need to have a course in grammar school for gardening, for farming small scale organic farming husbandry yes and that includes having having the kids actually apply hands on practice on gardens in school yards instead of wasting all that land on having a lawn it should grow food not lawns and learn this very very basic important skill and donate the produce to the homeless to soup kitchens also I free lunches and I also believe that county parks state and county parks should have should plant fruit trees so the homeless can go and pick fruit so anyway well that's how it used to be and of course under God's economics you were allowed to go on to someone's property and they were supposed to leave part of the harvest around the perimeters of their land so that the poor and the widows and everything can go there and pick the food they want as long as they picked enough for them to eat and didn't take any way that you could go and sell that was okay under God's economics Republicans would have a terrible day with that more than enough the earth's capability of producing food is more than enough food to eradicate hunger in the world it's just that with this plutocracy corporate plutocracy that we have now or oligarch it's complete total selfishness and greed with capitalism so we'll see you next time
