[4:38] He'll go back in the back and go back to the car. [4:44] It's a great ball, you see. [4:45] I can't get that on the pole. [4:45] So you're packing together just to let her go through now. [4:47] Make a good show on this candy. [5:04] Well, that's the way I see it. [5:10] Well, I've been to the ones that I thought looked like cheese. [5:20] The fourth page is the shelter. [5:43] Oh, gosh. [5:43] You seem to see them pulling the down line. [5:44] Then what happens? [5:44] Does that mean that if you go to the house, it's the correct concrete? [5:46] I don't know, sir.

[7:08] That is, the church killed this whole thing, you see. [7:09] Now, this is just a rerun of the original message. [7:11] 180 degrees is all the way they go, and next we have an old-timey language. [7:18] You see, when we all turned to John, we read all that shit in the Senate. [7:20] Well, that went the other way, I mean. [7:38] What's up? [7:38] No, it's all right. [7:39] I just think in the end you're all going to look good. [7:59] That's all, all right? [7:59] But right now... [8:02] Well, let me say that I would never ask you to do something unless I thought this was the right thing for you. [8:27] and I think those that wanted to throw up their heads will have all the bad. [8:48] Well, we'll get back to you in the afternoon. [8:49] I'll be down at 6 for the picture.

[10:42] It's a nice thing to hear, to have your military, because the military is in there. [10:43] I know you're going to go against it, because he's calling for it. [10:45] He wants to help you. [10:45] He wants to help you. [10:45] He wants to help you. [10:46] He wants to help you. [10:46] He wants to help you. [10:47] He wants to help you. [10:47] He wants to help you.
