Illegal ALIENS

All kinds of feedback from this AM's show. Interesting to hear local contractors say work ethic among Americans SUCKS! Could it be the liberal entitlement mentality has totally destroyed our initiative. Welcome comrade tradesman!

Heard part of your radio program this morning on the way to work. (The radio is firmly, if not permanently, right-leaning and tuned to 104.1 on the FM dial.)
My take on the Hillsboro pastor is that there is, indeed evil in the world, and we are known by the fruits we produce...
However, the "loophole" upon which they rely is callend Amendment 1 to the Constitution of the United States:
Congress (extended to the states through the tenth) shall make no law ... abridging the freedom of speech ... or the right of the people peaceably to assemble...Although I can't bring myself to oppose the Missouri law about protests near funerals, it's probably unconstitutional, and rightly so.
I can't imagine the willingness of these "religious" people to cause such deep hurt to grieving parents, brothers and sisters, children and friends of people who have died, in this case in service to their country. Simple compassion should put the needs of those people -- "the least of these" -- above the somewhat reverend's didactic message told through hate and pain.
However, we must be very careful when denying rights so painfully won and permanently staked out in the Constitution. Wasn't it Voltaire who suggested he may "disagree with what you say but would defend to the death your right to say it?" The same sentiments were echoed by the Founding Fathers, and I believe in case of doubt we should look to their wisdom.
Your suggestion to peaceably shelter the family from having to see such evil people was precisely on the mark! By doing that, people were exercising their rights of peaceful assembly and free speech, if symbolic in nature. Keeping calm and silent is crucial. Besides, never get in a whizzing contest with a skunk.
I enjoy your passion.
thanks

I only caught about 3 minutes of your show this morning, around 8:30 AM. You were discussing how republicans have lost their way, and I agree with you for the most part. But I think you're doing us a disservice by blasting Jim Talent the way you did this morning. He has stood up straight under a number of issues for us: the Marriage Protection Act in 2004; recently, the senate immigration bill that included amnesty - Talent was strongly opposed when other Republicans such as Bond were in support; he is the sponsor of the constitutional amendment for a Presidential line-item veto (which conservatives should be screaming for right now since it creates a fiscally conservative constituency for the President); plus several tax cuts and other issues. He's running for reelection right now. Coming out against him on the air will only depress voter turnout from your listeners when November rolls around. If you have a problem with a specific issue I think it is helpful to point out that you would like to see Jim Talent reconsider his views. But keep in mind all the areas where he has fought for our values in the past. I don't think it is helpful when you imply that, because of one issue, Jim Talent isn't a good Christian nor a good candidate, especially when you mention this during a discussion of third party candidates. When he is reelected he will have four years until he is in cycle for reelection again, and 6 years until his next reelection: expect great things from Jim Talent come January of 2007. My prediction is that after November we will see Jim Talent out in front of a lot of good, conservative issues. Plus, I guarantee Claire Macaskill isn't going to stand up for conservatives if she is elected!

Sir:
COULDNT GET IN ON THE RADIO............

I AM CONSERVATIVE AND AM PRO-LIFE...BUT VOTING FOR A THIRD PARTY IS VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE THERE IS NOT ANY CHANCE OF THE 3RD PARTY GETTING IN, AND THAT COULD TIP THE BALANCE IN FAVOR OF THE OPPOSITION, CLAIRE MC CASKELL, AND THAT IS THE SAME THING AS ELECTING HILLARY CLINTON TO THE OFFICE. NOT AT ALL SATISFACTORY.........

ALSO, I WILL SEE THE MOVIE AS IT SHOWS TRUE AMERICAN PATRIOTS AND PAYS HOMAGE TO THEM.

NO AMNESTY FOR ILLEGAL ALIENS........

It's about time that the Republican party realizes that we will vote for a third party rather than take their leftovers!
The Republican party has convinced me to become a card-carrying Libertarian.
Kudos

Next week what promises to be an awesome discussion on the viability of Ethanol and a Sherriff's Deputy sues a jerk criminal and WINS!

See ya on the radio!

Jerks who con Codgers

It really bugs me when people prey on other's weaknesses particularly going after the young or the elderly.

The most recent I have come upon goes like this:

A sweet young thing calls a codger in Willard, Ash Grove or Walnut Grove. The sweet thing acts as though she is going to great lengths to make sure she has the right person on the phone. She will read of "the marks" name, ask the person to verify the spelling of name and address, all of which is available from a variety of places. Next the sweet thing says she is with either Empire Benefits or Bank of Ash Grove. {The Bank of Ash Grove is in no way complicit in ANY of this!} This strategy is brilliant in that MOST of the seniors in the area, due to lack of mobility, bank with The Bank of Ash Grove. Sweet Young thing then reads the first few numbers of the person's bank account to them. If the mark does not know any better they will think this person really does know their account number because those numbers will be at the beginning of the account number. This is the whole key to the scam. Every one who deals at the Bank of Ash Grove will have the first few numbers in common. These numbers are known as Routing or Transit Numbers it is how banks identify one from another so wherever you bank everyone at that branch will have the same few numbers at the beginning of their account. So if someone started reading those numbers to you, you might assume they really were who they said they were and when they asked you to confirm the rest of the numbers on your account you might unwittingly give it to them.

The con is absolutely legal because the conversation is taped, the sweet young thing gets the mark to read the account number aloud and say YES. By doing so they slime their way around the law and start deducting $389.00 per month out of the account which the senior thinks is for a Prescription Drug Discount Card. This same card can be bought from your insurance agent for about $10.00/month.

Please warn all lovable codgers about this scam. Right now they are working the Ash Grove Area but no doubt will soon move to a new "Hot Zone".

See you on the radio!

United States of Mexico

It has been most distressing to have to listen to all the rhetoric on illegal immigration. I read a brilliant article in The American Thinker

http://www.americanthinker.com/articles.php?article_id=5383&search=meyer

The major point of the article is there are those Mexicans who legitimately want to assimilate and those who are here to exploit American liberties while demanding entitlements. There is no doubt the latter is breeding a whole new era of race problems that WILL boil over. As long as we have spineless legislators in Washington this problem will continue to fester and ultimately there will be violence. This situation could be dealt with but it won't due to political correctness. Guaranteed even the little I have written will be all some idiot needs to suggest I am a racist for even bringing up the subject.

If you are as frustrated as I hope you will join us this Saturday at The Springfield Library - North {North Kansas Expressway} from 11 am - 1 pm. Bring an American Flag, bring a pro American banner. Bring your best behavior and language. There will be children there and those on the left will look to discredit us so let your actions speak positively and proudly.

If you are not frustrated enough, it is now no longer appropriate for American school kids to wear anything patriotic or fly the American flag.

See ya on the radio and see ya Saturday!
