Speaker 1 (00:00):
Wait here we go, Here we go. It's happening right now.
Do you know what this is? If you can't have
a guess, you can't see if this is live from Beijing, China.
The opening ceremonies are going on right now. It's all
the cute little Chinese girls singing some Chinese song with

(00:22):
the smiles on their faces. I have the translation, if
you want it. I am happy to be enslaved by
the God Chairman. She I'm grateful I wasn't aborted during
the one child policy when we all preferred boys right
or or aborted or murdered by the state. Sure. Perhaps

(00:44):
so I'm one of the girls they let live, probably
because my parents were good looking enough that they thought
I would be good looking enough that I could then
be forced to sing in this choir. How differently do
you look at the Beijing Olympics of two versus the
Beijing Olympic of two thousand and eight, when everybody was
kind of gaga over how amazing it was? Second verse,

(01:05):
if the weakers didn't want to be in concentration camps,
maybe they should pledge loyalty to our God chairman sheet.
So I can't hold back. We need to start the
show officially so that I can get going here because
I got so much in my craw it's all red
and fisting. Stop my craw needs salv It's my craws. Lord,

(01:26):
I'm Jack Armstrong's Joe getting on this Friday in February
fourth year two. Knew you in twenty two were arms
strong and getting We approve of this program, all right,
then let's leap in action precisely according to the FCC
rules regulations. Here we go at Mark. I would say
to our athletes, you're there to compete, do not risk
incurring the anger of the Chinese government because they are ruthless.

(01:49):
I know there is a temptation on the part of
some to speak out while they are there. I respect that,
but I also worry that is nance Ce Pelosi, who
I've had problems with her point of view and politics
for many, many years. But that is far and away
the worst thing she has ever done ever in her career,

(02:13):
is to tell us citizens to not speak out against
the evils of China because we're scared of China. The
freaking Speaker of the House just told us citizens to
shut up in the face of totalitarian is m because
we're scared of China, and man, is she getting it

(02:33):
from every angle on this one on MSNBC where they
love her. Everybody from Al Sharpton to the right Winger
to the milk toast never says anything. Guests were, what
the hell we now are telling us citizens to not
speak out in the face of evil? Well, that's new,
that's a new thing. What the hell will play the

(02:55):
whole speech later? Un freaking believable. This is how we're
gonna win the battle for for freedom in the on
the planet? Gotcha? So she wasn't just telling twenty year
olds they're not playing you gotta be careful. I guess
I'm I'm I'm a man on an island here. It
sounded kind of like, hey, hell a joke. You you

(03:15):
want you want to send a message to the athletes
that this is what could happen if you speak out.
Fine behind the scenes, but from the speaker the House
of Representatives to stand up and say because they'll do
mean things and we don't want to incur the wrath.
What's she? What's she addressing this a lot? We don't
want to incur the wrath of the Chinese. You didn't
stand up and say a message to China. U s

(03:38):
citizens are US citizens. Keep that in mind. When our
athletes speak out, that's a warning to China that we're
the big dog and you don't aff with us, and
we'll say what we want to say. No, the Speaker
the House Representatives, the third most powerful person in the world, said,
don't make them angry. They're really means, so we don't
want to make them angry. So I'm just telling you
don't say anything. Wow, what a great, battered wife way

(04:01):
to take to take a view of evil power in
this story. Just freaking awful out of bounds. And like
I said, everyone from right wingers to Alice Sharpton is saying,
I'm sorry, I'm out. I don't agree with this at all.
We have a history of speaking. Our whole country is
built on speaking out against totalitarianism and an authority in reason,

(04:23):
whether it's slavery or the Brits in seventeen seventy six
or whatever. And we're telling our athletes because athletes have
made it clear. Some have come forward in the last
couple of days and said they're gonna speak their mind.
And the Speaker of the House not only first of all,
I think you got a First Amendment problem here because
you have the third and most powerful person in the
government telling you things you can't say. But just oh

(04:46):
my god, Oh my god.
