[0:45] And so those are the reasons he's been my favorite sign. [0:46] Because I really got pissed off when I saw that this son of a bitch Tom Hauser made a statement. [1:00] I don't know what to do. [1:12] I told all of them, I told all of them about me. [1:14] We were carrying on all that, of course. [1:15] And by then, I was talking to my brother-in-law, and he said, you know, that's not good. [1:30] You know, our deal, our wedding money didn't grow. [1:52] I'm glad it didn't grow. [1:53] The whole thing was important. [1:53] The wedding was in front of my eyes, right in front of my eyes. [1:54] I didn't think it was going to happen. [1:55] I didn't think it was going to happen. [1:56] I didn't think it was going to happen. [1:57] I didn't think it was going to happen. [2:08] Alas, there is no one at all. [2:51] rather than talking about amnesty because we wanted to serve America let us honor the amnesty of children and serve America and not let them be labeled and after that one day I had this I had this wall that the Cold War had drawn to me and I just wanted to draw the line on it once and for all there will be no amnesty we're not going to serve America we're not going to serve America we're not going to serve America we're not going to serve America [3:29] that there, there will be no end. [3:39] It's pretty, pretty cute. [3:40] But if you like that old pencil, you know, exactly what he said. [3:46] He's trying to bust it. [3:48] He's running. [3:50] It's very offensive. [3:50] He's wondering what to do. [3:51] And he did. [3:51] He's looking. [3:51] That's, that's very offensive. [3:52] He's running out. [3:52] He's over. [3:53] He'll do another offensive. [3:53] He's running out. [3:55] He's over. [3:55] And he doesn't see the hurt. [3:56] He's running out. [4:07] . [4:16] . [4:16] . [4:17] . [4:24] . [4:24] . [4:26] . [4:30] . [4:31] I feel sorry for the poor bastards that made mistakes. [4:38] All right, they're going to pay, and they're going to go to prison. [4:43] Believe me, I mean prison. [4:44] They're going to go to prison. [4:45] That's what Lincoln did. [4:46] Lincoln said, all right, I'm going to die outside the door. [4:49] I know what you're saying, but I'm going to die inside the door. [4:57] I remember getting scared of the man outside and waiting in a row line. [5:19] He said, you know, he said to me, I'm saying, I'm scared of him. [5:21] And he pushed me for the number of days. [5:21] And I was like, I don't know what to do. [5:22] I said, I don't know what to do. [5:23] I said, I don't know what to do. [5:24] I said, I don't know what to do. [5:24] I said, I don't know what to do. [5:36] Because your father was a corruption. [6:06] . [6:13] . [6:16] . [6:18] . [6:27] . [6:39] Thank you. [7:05] They don't have this. [7:16] They don't have this. [7:17] They don't have this. [7:23] Maybe that's a reason. [7:45] I don't think that's a reason. [7:50] I don't think that's a reason. [7:51] I don't think that's a reason. [7:52] I don't think that's a reason. [7:53] That's our problem. [8:23] what about our white paper definitely [8:57] . [8:59] . [9:02] . [9:03] . [9:04] . [9:05] . [9:07] . [9:27] . [9:41] . [9:44] . [9:45] . [9:45] . [9:47] . [9:49] . [10:21] Thank you. [10:53] part on that we want to win in the right way. [11:13] I just want that on the record. [11:14] I don't know if there are wires or something on the ground, but I thought it was a suggestion. [11:16] I don't know if they're there or not going to be on that. [11:17] I want to get to the list and say what they want to do. [11:18] I'm not going to get to that post. [11:19] I'm not even going to be in the White House. [11:20] I'm not going to be in the White House. [11:21] I'm going to be out there. [11:30] They may have filed, part of our problem, is that when Perry came and filed, they didn't really map over. [11:53] And certainly the federal map was the last time. [11:55] And that was the go over. [11:55] Yeah. [11:55] They could have talked about the 5,000 and what they were supposed to do, but when they mapped over again, they were able to come 20,000, 100,000. [12:01] We had to go out and say, you know, what can we do? [12:15] It's a big job. [12:17] It's a lot of work to have $300,000. [12:18] If that wasn't $100,000, God damn how huge it would be. [12:23] It's a lot of work. [12:24] It's a lot of work. [12:24] It's a lot of work. [12:25] It's a lot of work. [12:25] It's a lot of work. [12:26] It's a lot of work. [12:26] It's a lot of work. [12:27] and why did they make the calls to major editors about this white paper? [13:04] and I didn't drive. [13:17] I just drove out of there. [13:18] I couldn't go anywhere. [13:18] So I went away. [13:18] I really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really [13:37] Well, he was. [13:47] He was. [13:50] He was. [13:58] He was. [14:01] He was. [14:07] And that's what got the man working, that's what got him through. [14:42] If you got this, can I stay here? [14:48] Can I have a white paper? [14:51] You can say yes. [14:52] Or we can't. [15:24] I don't know. [15:56] wrong.
