 of the an online college so to speak that is owned by the government where anybody can take courses with an assigned teacher online for free see education should should be available to even the poorest child or adult it should be a right a right the conservatives hate that word they hate that word right they don't want the little guy to be educated but it's their right to carry an ak 47 into a school or a bar listen it should be a right education and and decent health care should be rights not privileges and it's not it's not commie but if you want to even say for it they are going to call them privileges well how rich does a does a person have to be you know what they're trying to do you know that assurance program the lifeline program yeah they with a free cell phone assurance wireless for emergencies yeah what was the deal yeah they want to do away with that for the poor of course okay because they're saying the poor uh there are people taking this the for drugs money and selling the damn phone and this that the other thing but that the hell are the poor to have a phone let them buy it themselves or they don't have money to buy it no oh yeah yeah so that's their own did you picture the poor with the little money they have going to a t mobile or Verizon and signing a getting a cell phone with a two-year contract and paying $50 a month or even $40 or $35 a month that these people can't afford that but but that's that's how the but the rich republicans can care less if the poor have an emergency cell phone that's how evil those people are that's my point that's how evil they are i wonder if once a poor person gets an assurance wireless cell phone with a bona fide number i wonder if they could turn around and get magic jack plus with for the with the computer modem and and they can use that number because magic jack plus is like $20 a year for unlimited everything there's a new program there's a new one now i don't remember and you don't have the computer doesn't have to be booed up of dr bill with magic jack plus there's another one yeah there's another company rabbit ear there's there's one called rabbit area you were you supposed to get hundreds and hundreds of channels via your computer modem called rabbit ears the measure would reduce the $80 billion a year program by as much as five percent house conservatives have urged major cuts as the supplemental nutrition assistance program or snap has doubled in costs in 2008 now why did it double why somebody just put the money in there no because there's more poor there's more pofolk Jesus Christ almighty there's more pofolk around again these people are evil po boy sandwich yeah of course they're evil the bill is certain to face strong opposition from the democratic senate and president obama who have opposed major cuts to the program oh really well why did he say some a few days ago or whatever the hell it was that he may allow to cuts in social security social security has nothing to do with the damn deficits it's own fun yeah it's his own god damn fun it's his own fun there's nothing to do with the deficit no that's everybody wants a cat a cat a cat that's just a lie to get rid of social security exactly no they don't want to get rid of per se change the name yeah they want it to become like IRAs and 401ks and and you have to pay a fee to somebody on wall street to handle your sell sushi well to pay a fee and to maintain a 401k or an IRA or keo whatever you want to call them doesn't that don't you usually have to have a steady full-time job to do that presumably presumably but that's the point uh everybody would have to pay a fee to some joker on wall street to manage their account that's wall street wants that money man they want more money brave that money oh you mean more profit yes handling the social security accounts they crave it they crave it okay republicans say the legislation would find the savings by tightening the eligibility eligibility standards i think they're kind of too tight right now what did you say sure in some programs in front some programs they actually count your life insurance as income this is really weird your life insurance is a cost not a you know earned income it's unless you sell it isn't as similar as that's even worse than uh taxing unemployment benefits exactly that's another one that's another one yeah now but but getting back to the insurance if you trade in your insurance and surrender it and get money for it right that money is not should not be considered income because now it's going to cost you to bury yourself unless you use like a rubber made or Tupperware casket burp out where are you going to put it burp out the vertical save land vertical i took a tube just put you in vertically yeah but the land cost money yeah it's true you know i mean but it's a lot they throw you in pottersfield and let the state bury you whatever pottersfield would have a clay clay pot clay caskets no they might have burn you just what about pine boxes like they they they did in the wild wild west no more may enter that crap oh it's cheaper to burn to burn you and throw your ashes to the wind yeah or put them in a little hole you know say hey there's a there's Bill Eichman over there go hey you want to see him he's he's he's underneath those cucumbers see those cucumber plants over there he's he's he's underneath there somewhere anyway republicans say the legislation would find that savings by tightening eligibility standards and imposing new work requirements oh boy we got no jobs now there ain't no jobs out there so what are they gonna do work requirements it would also likely try to reduce the roles by requiring drug testing okay the republican solutions to things are not real solutions that's another word to be used in quotes or not use it at all you know what i mean they like they they like to sweep things under the carpet exactly their their answer is dilution not solution they are obstructionists they are counter revolutionaries they are not governors they cannot govern despite what chris christie said when he got elected i'm here to govern the guy who's stronger than the storm i'm here to govern that's because he doesn't live by the ocean that's why he's stronger than the storm the biggest obstructionist is that you are nauseating ugly turtle face mitch mccombs he's got to be the biggest obstructionist he doesn't do anything constructive in washington when christie goes into the ocean it rises by five feet he's like a he's a danger it's like an iceberg a danger at the shore yeah well they could use him uh with he could lie with the sandbags for the next hurricane he could be a great barrier seawall sink him to be a barrier roof yeah if he wants to help the state i mean that's about the only good he can ever do is to become part of the seawall because he doesn't he hasn't done anything except to help his rich friends that's creating jobs is it not helping his rich friends not to pay taxes yeah that's what they say well Barbara Buono who is the democratic opponent for chris christie better get really tough when she debates him and and and and and mudsling that hits him hard below the belt right in his rocky mountain oysters because chris christie is a bit of a celebrity throughout the world yes people in third world countries have seen chris christie in their media they told me themselves so Barbara Buono better really get down and dirty and dig for a lot of chris christie dirt on on him if she expects to win taxes is running out of the drug used to execute prisoners in what has become the most active death penalty state in the country they're just saying that they don't want to spend taxpayers money on the drug they want to probably hanging is is much cheaper yeah they just don't want to you know they don't want that's what it is i wonder if they don't hang because the prisoner will probably have a an orgasm when he gets on now well they they would have to use the same news the same gallows you know because i know republicans would not want to uh spend move on keep on spend money on more or more rope so they would have to have just buy one rope maybe they would have you buy your own bring your own rope yeah like bring your own boots b y b bring your b y o r bring your own rope b y or bring your own rope to your own hanging yeah they did things like that in the old days you know well they don't they want people in prison to pay room and board yes and uh and and work off your room and board yes which and if you add the debt that a prisoner may owe there's a chance that he might be a slave for for for many years maybe his whole life yes that's how you that's how they they that's how they want to bring back slavery the republicans uh by using the privatized prisons free labor free labor brother they love it they love it wake up america wake up and smell the coffee and realize you know what's happening and don't drink starbucks because it's loaded with caffeine they spike as compared to dunkey okay why they want you to become more addicted to caffeine i don't know it's just say it it has the most of the three is caffeine addictive absolutely it is okay slightly slightly a spokesman for the texas department of criminal justice said the state's remaining supply of pento barbato pento beans pento barbato well it's fire insipendent oh the drug that stops what does it stop respiration in the heart well don't they give you don't they give them a drug to make them unconscious first sodium like sodium pentate sodium pentathlon i believe they do i'm not sure well how does it does it first who don't well how did they put animals to sleep with two drugs as far as i know yeah because the second drug is the one that's active on a hot the first drug it's also a bybiturate of some kind the first drug probably knocks you out and the second drug kills your dad kills you the agency is exploring all options including alternate sources of pento barbato or an alternate drug for use in the lethal injection process spokesman jason clark said in a statement texas has executed 11 inmates this year so far well don't forget that maybe uh maybe uh what do we call it the governor oops governor oops you know um maybe he's trying to beat george w bush's record because george w bush executed more prisoners than any other governor maybe maybe maybe they should um they should start um an alligator farm in austin texas and uh and just feed them to the gators maybe that'll be cheaper for republicans hey we used to have the coliseum there and lions eaten you know whatever remember member barbara bush let them eat cake hurricane katrina hey this is a step up for this is a step upward for the poor to sleep on the floor of the the new orlean super dome on the astro turf it's a step upward they should they should be glad they're sleeping at the dome exactly let them eat cake do birds cough no i never seen a bird sneeze or cough but i know that birds can get pneumonia but i my lizards used to oh yeah yeah of course but in my bird watching and limited bird ownership i've never seen or heard one cough if they don't how do they remove secretions from their lungs and airways i know they're uh the mating ritual of birds are not exactly enjoyable as uh as mammals they have to fly and put their cloaca together in the air in the air really birds cough all right really and they sneeze too interesting the reason you assume you've never witnessed this is if you've actually been near a sick bird is that it wouldn't draw your attention a cough sounds like a slightly different chirp a sneeze is so soft you can barely hear it and the head movement is almost undetectable for a little birdie a vet for a trained caretaker would notice but most observers would know so if your own tweety pine starts to sound a bit different it's time for a visit to the vet you mean if you're oh wait until he looks sick your cockatiel or your parakeet or whatever or your very expensive parrot which is captive bred in most cases i don't know why the damn the damn animals cost so much but it's like with purebred dogs they're right you know they want a fortune from a lot of them very very very crooked capitalism now i have a situation here where if i get my ass in gear here i shall write a little letter to the local newspaper about concerning concerning this okay if you've been using grandma's handicap parking tag or plate fraudulent long after she's been gone the time to end this fraudulent ruse is at hand it's fraud starting thursday the new jersey motor vehicle commission will begin requiring disabled tag and plate owners to verify their disability by getting a medical professional to sign recertification documents every three years a change that ends the old process of automatic triennial renewal by mail in another change announced in may hang tags are now designed to make it nearly impossible to falsify expiration date but a crime that carries fines as high as ten thousand dollars oh they love those fines and prison terms as long as 18 months but don't expect a crackdown on illegal tag or plate use heaven forbid people in on wall street or goldman sacks should get fined like like that or prison in prison for one thing current tag and plate holders a group whose membership exceeds five hundred thousand need not submit recertification papers until they are due for renewal that means it will take at least three years for all qualified drivers to get new tags and plates also illegal use of handicap working privileges excuse me parking privileges was never a big law enforcement priority anyway only 61 tickets were issued for violations of this state statute in the counties of bergen and passec during the 12-month period ending in April the more common violation parking in a handicap spot without an authorized tag has rarely been much of a law enforcement priority even police in two suburban towns with big retail suburban stores and shopping malls parameters and Wayne issued only 114 and 230 of these tickets in the last 12 months but in more urban settings hogging a space meant for a much less able-bodied driver is considered much less tolerable if somebody is handicapped and someone else uses their space we take it very seriously said passec deputy chief Ross capuana capuana after all these people are usually older and have trouble walking taking their spaces is wrong none of the other police departments in the two-county region rivals passec in the issuance of handicap parking tickets a total of 14,248 summons for the last 12 month period i've seen people zip out of their vehicles quite briskly with handicapped stickers on their vehicle and run into the store so i think you're right i think uh there should be some reform here oh but there is reform and this is what i'm going to be complaining about the reform is that the handicapped will now be bothered to go to a doctor every three years pay him his amount of money for the visit so that he will give him a letter of recertification for his handicapped thinking now this is a problem for someone else but what are we doing we're making the victim giving him the cost the trouble of going to the doctor and getting a new letter etc the victim we should be doing something to prevent the guy doing this problem the fraudulent perpetrator not penalizing the victim exactly they do the same thing with auto insurance like in new jersey i talked about this in a recent past show the reason why uh my insurance is so high and even if you have an older vehicle and you have minimum coverage the reason why you're paying so much in this area is because there are many many extra accident claims in our populated area and it's it's a no fault state all it seems like all the no fault states have republican governors and no fault simply means that everybody is taking on the burden of uh for all the bad drivers even the good drivers are absorbing all you know all these claims that are being paid out for the bad drivers penalized why should a good driver with a clean record um an older person perhaps why should they pay for people that are careless reckless and have a bad record and points off their license it's the same thing with your uh handicap parking sticker that's because the so that we will allow the insurance companies to make more money that's what it's all about that's all it's all about you it's all crooked or ensuring you or etc it's about them making more money it's an excuse it's it's crooked and this is this is the kind of capitalism that republicans want uh deregulated uh no holds barred stealing legalized stealing but it's always stealing from the lower rungs of the economic ladder it's never stealing from those who already have oh no though the haves can lie to you and steal from you yeah you know it's like that that banner i i read a long time ago uh you know when you lie to the government it's a felony right when the government lies to you it's just politics that's correct so that's it uh is there one more interesting reading that we can do they are all interesting in their own context okay well i like to shake rattle and roll my my viewers well you can shake rattle and roll and smile the stuff too i mean not dance not dance for them but i mean you know governor pat macrory rally north carolina let me guess he's a republican correct that's signed into law on monday a measure directing state officials to regulate abortion clinics based on the standards as those for outpatient surgical centers they change that critics say will force most to close i guess these are right wing religious nuts who believe that a fertilized egg in a fetus is a human being that's great when they have no evidence to support that even worse than that has someone wall street believes when they created the meltdown they are doing god's work how did they figure that they figured i don't know how but they know nothing about the bible the god of the bible they know nothing about it that's correct and guess what yeah god doesn't need their help okay neither will well we all know they're just helping satan that's great in the end times they are bewitched by the angel of light and they believe they are doing god's work but they are doing the work of the god of this world the old serpent that was cast down the dragon that was cast down to earth to to deceive the world revelation 12 9 he's already done that the whole world is the sea that's the white horse of the apocalypse false christianity yeah false prophets false christianity ragweed season before he shall be a falling away yeah a gigantic falling away where's your whatchamacallit what's that i don't know you had a uh tell me a pathic something or whatever i i wasn't getting an attack when i was home so i didn't take it well you're supposed to take it during the season every day i guess it's the time of the season for the critics say the move represents a shift by the first year republican governor who pledged as a candidate last fall that he would not approve any new abortion restrictions if elected so he lied he lied to get elected he lied that's how do you do it that's how the republicans get elected isn't it funny how all the all the southern and western so-called bible-built states always seem to have a republican governor well they're not going to vote for a democrat and and kentucky has two of those scumbags in uh in washington and they're both scumbags too yeah turtle face and the other famous guy was a rand paul rand paul rand paul who thinks he's doing the constitution okay oh what liars for hire critics say the move will effectively close most of north carolina's 16 abortion clinics because only one now meets the standards of an outpatient surgical center an ambulatory surgical center costs about one million dollars more to build an abortion clinic the director of the state's division of health services regulation said now this is not only happening in north carolina it's happening in many red states texas and etc because once the republicans got the majorities in these states this is their agenda and it's an agenda basically against women anti-women anti-women anti-minority anti-gay phyllis shaftley says republicans don't need the latinos votes really yeah we just got to get more white people to vote that's what she said west port connecticut the parents of a 15-year-old connecticut girl sued a summer camp in massachusetts on monday yeah what happened saying their daughter was kicked out of camp last month after a boy kissed her heaven forbid anybody should get kissed wait what was the location of this camp massachusetts oh it's in a northeastern like liberal kind of state remember there were witches in massachusetts yeah but once upon a time the governor and those in charge believed in massachusetts that the witches rode on brooms to the black seven but um but these kids are doing far more than just kissing in reality we don't know that what's the problem with that's what the camp assumed what's the problem with the kiss the girl was sent home from camp emerson in hinsdale and a camp official falsely accused her and the boy of sexually provocative behavior a kiss is sexually provocative according to the lawsuit filed in bridgeport superior court well what if they what if they were caught doing something else they would have had heart attacks the it also says she suffers from emotional and psychological disorders including obsessive compulsive disorder so people with psychological issues can't get late they can't get kissed what happens when they get kissed the girl who lives in westport was escorted out of the camp by a uniformed police officer and was forbidden to say goodbye to her friends and counsel do you hear this are you listening to this people were can we all say storm trooper people were swapping spit as i was growing up going to school left and right the family spent six thousand four hundred and fifty dollars for the four-week camp which was not refunded their lawyer said very strange in my opinion very strange indeed oh boy well anyway that concludes our show for this week progressive discussions the weeks go by fast and so does the shows it's it's amazing where all this time went it just flew by quickly everything flies Reverend Bill flies by yeah that's why we gotta make the most of it time keeps on slipping slipping slipping into the future fly like an eagle to the sea fly like an eagle let the spirit carry me uh anyway join us next week for progressive discussions and we're having a very unseasonably dry and cool uh first week of august but i think it's supposed to get hot next week from my idea right now it's not the heat that bothers me it's the humidity oh it's humid it's not dry that's why i got the air conditioner on because it's humid yeah oh all right okay well i mean it's drier than it was when we had the heat well yesterday i did not have the air conditioner on all day yeah well me i just lowered a thermostat you know just a fan yeah okay all right say so long for these people so long people
