Speaker 1 (00:00):
Talking about last night's election results. I'm I don't know.
As I said, it's not a sour grapes thing, but
I am concerned. I feel like that concept of the
greater good is gone and a lot of people are
ready to bail in favor of ridiculous promises, and uh,

(00:21):
that never goes well as far as I'm concerned, I'd
love to know what you think though, HWEW TV and
it's the number, Kathy, you're on the Legacy Retirement Group
dot com phone line.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Hi, Hi, thank you. I wanted to say thank you
for your very excellent explanation of the bond issue. The
night before election. I was driving home and with the
radio in the car, and I didn't really realize what
voting yes or voting no would mean for a bond.
So I appreciated the education that you provided.

Speaker 1 (00:48):
You're very welcome, Kathy. I'm glad I could help help you.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
Yes, I hope to continue to do that because if
i'm if I'm a I don't think of a single entity.
I think more people would have learned orthologies. I didn't
know all that, so it was it was good information.
I want to thank you for it. Secondly, I am
originally from Buffalo, New York, and I've lived here for
ten years.

Speaker 3 (01:05):
And.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
Yet we love our snow. We do New York City
for years, Like you know, Western New York is vastly
different from the city obviously, and it's the other side
of the state. But for years, my whole family, friends,
everybody that I know, we would love for New York
City to be annexed like Washington, DC and just be
its own entity. Erie counties taxes that I think eight

(01:30):
point seventy five percent four point seventy five percent of
it I believe goes right to New York City, to
the boroughs. It's five hundred miles across the state. They
need to be able to sustain themselves. They're just it's
an eyesore on the rest of the state and haven't
help everybody that lives in New York. Now that we
have this person in charge.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
I'm telling you, I'm sure that people like in Albany
and Ithaca and so they look at the city and go,
what the hell are these people thinking? Because it's this
this is an alien mindset to upstate the way that
New York has always been a bastion of you know,
decadence and money and all that kind of stuff. But
it's always been a bastion that at least made sense

(02:09):
to us. Right now, it's not even making sense right.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
I would if I had won the HTTERI I literally
had this conversation with friends of mine. I would take
on an ad on the billboard in Times Square and
run mom Donny's mother saying he's not an American, he
doesn't feel like he's an American, he doesn't want to
be an American. I would have loved to have people
see that.

Speaker 1 (02:31):
And why Cuomo's people especially did not run that into
the ground is beyond me. And I'm not trying to
be racist here. I'm trying to be realistic. This this
is ground zero. This is where September eleventh became a reality.
And for this guy to stand there and his mother
even says he doesn't consider himself an American at all,

(02:53):
that's who you elect.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
I don't think it's racism. I think it's standing on
principle that this is what our country was found it out,
It's in our constitution. We are a Christian country. We
continue to make accommodations for people who want to come here,
and we start little by little giving them an inch,
giving them an inch, giving them an inch. All of
a sudden, our country is gone, and people stand around
and go, well, what happened, Oh my gosh, what happened? Well,

(03:17):
what happened was nob had the ghonies to stand up
and say, this is our country and this is how
we're going to behave here. And if you don't behave
that way, then don't come like that's not racist, develop
it's this is being love of your own country.

Speaker 1 (03:31):
Kathy, I love you, call more often. Thank you, have
a good night, Very good to talk to you. Six Pete,
you're on six WTVN.

Speaker 3 (03:41):
Yeah, so you know, I agree with pretty much everything
that you say. Chuck and I also shared the frustration
of why people are voting a self proclaimed socialist as
mayor of New York City. But you know, I started
thinking about it today. How many people who voted in

(04:02):
New York City for Madonnie or Tom Donnie? Excuse me?
How many people really even know that socialism has never worked?
I mean, do you think their parents taught them? I
probably would guess that a lot of them know. Do
you think they're teachers taught them? Especially with the way

(04:24):
the liberal the educational system is the public education system
is use me. I kind of doubt it, especially if
a teacher has a liberal agenda, they probably might not
want to say that socialism never works. I wouldn't be
surprised if some of the New York City high school
teachers are communists themselves and don't admit it out loud. So,

(04:46):
you know, I'll just ponder that, maybe that'll leave a
little bit of your frustration. Ponder how many people really
even know that socialism doesn't work.

Speaker 1 (04:56):
I'm with you, and you know what, that lack of
that lack of historical knowledge, as they say, those who
forget history are doomed to repeat it. That is a
constant warning you will hear from me. And I think
that's showing its face right now. Pete. I appreciate you, buddy,
Thanks for the call. A two one nine eight eighty six. Betty,
you are on six nu UTV and high.

Speaker 3 (05:18):
Is that me?

Speaker 1 (05:19):
That would be you? Are you? Oh it's Betsy, Yes,
that's okay.

Speaker 4 (05:24):
Hey. I am really heartsick about how people are voting
these days. I first of all, I'd like to know
why is Franklin County supporting the zoo and why doesn't
Delaware why don't their residents pay the taxes as well
and we could share them. They must have had some
land grant thing goes through, but I don't know why
Delaware doesn't help pay for it.

Speaker 1 (05:44):
That question has been asked for a long time, and
I wish somebody would step up an answer it, because
it's a completely reasonable inquiry right now.

Speaker 4 (05:51):
The other thing is, I'm a poll worker and I
worked at one of the schools in Upper Arlington. I'm
an Upper Arlington resident my whole life. I am so disheartened.
I have to tell you most everybody that came into
the school that was not Caucasian was carrying a Democrat flyer.
They would come up to me and I would say,
please put that away and pull it out when you vote.

(06:12):
They were standing outside our polling location hand the Democrats
handing out those flyers, as well as one of the
city council people who was running. And of the six
people running for Upper Earlington City Council, four of them
were Democrats. It was supposed to be nonpartisan, but I
said to the boy handing out the papers. He said, oh,

(06:32):
it's non partisan. I said, then why are the Democrats
supporting them? And It's like, yeah, that's pretty obvious. And
for the school boards, three people ran and the one
in company who was Republican did not win.

Speaker 1 (06:43):
Did he not win? I met him with Senator Hughestead
a few weeks ago. I really thought that all reasonable
people would cast a vote for him out of the
three if nothing else.

Speaker 4 (06:56):
No lou came in last. They put in the two
Democrats had been a previous principle at Upper Arlington High School.
But still I read a poster there in our gymnasium.
He's written by the children. The mythspellings were horrible. When
I went to school in Upper Arlington, we would never
have been allowed. So I'm wondering what kind of an
education are they getting. But maybe we as Republicans should

(07:17):
become Democrats and try to change them because we are
fighting a losing battle and the Republicans are not trying
hard enough.

Speaker 1 (07:24):
Well an aimen to that when in fact, I said
that on a Facebook post today and I got well,
one person who could have been argumentative was not very argumentative.
Another one wanted to tell me that how let's talk
about this. Because I brought up the fact that he
said you need to get involved. I said, I tried
to get involved. I ran or attempted to run for
Central Committee, and the party itself had somebody fill out

(07:47):
an application to run against me so they could have
a yes man in there. They didn't want somebody to dissent,
they didn't want somebody argumentative. They wanted somebody that was
going to go along. And that guy has never the
last presidential election, no Trump signed, no signs of any
in his yard. He's never come to my door, knocked
and said do you need any yard signs? Is there
anything I can do? Never met him, never got an

(08:09):
email from him. This is the guy representing my ward.
They didn't want me, but they got him, and they well, Chuck,
we'd like to talk about this? Why what's to talk about?
It is what it is. We cannot field a candidate
in Franklin County for any dag gone thing, not for
Columbus City Council, not to run against Andy Ginther, not
for a county commissioner seat, not for the county auditor. Nothing.

(08:32):
There's always an excuse, and that you know what, if
that's how it's gonna be, just just lock the doors.

Speaker 3 (08:40):
Correct.

Speaker 4 (08:40):
It's very disheartening and I feel bad logic has really
gone out. It's gone and I feel sorry. I'm glad.
I'm pleasure to death and burst.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
Oh no, live a long time, Betty, so you can
call me more. I enjoy talking to you. Eight two one, nine,
eight eighty six. Let's get John on six to natv in.

Speaker 5 (08:59):
Hey, Chuck, John an aamaged country. How are you doing fine, sir?

Speaker 1 (09:02):
How's the jelly?

Speaker 5 (09:04):
Oh it's good up here. Hey. I haven't talked to
you since the first day.

Speaker 1 (09:07):
You got your hair so really well it still looks.

Speaker 5 (09:10):
It's been a minute.

Speaker 3 (09:12):
Yeah, you look good.

Speaker 5 (09:14):
So about mom, Donnie? Do you I don't know. I
look back, I think about the election of Barack Hussein
Obama and now this guy. Do you think part of
this is due to what they call Stockholm syndrome? I
mean you mentioned nine to eleven.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
I go a little more in depth. What do you mean?

Speaker 5 (09:39):
Yeah, just the fact that you know, this guy's clearly Muslim,
nearly radical. It's in the city that was that was
struck on nine to eleven.

Speaker 4 (09:49):
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (09:50):
Just something doesn't feel right about it. Are people?

Speaker 1 (09:52):
Is this like a do you feel like it's a
sort of surrender from the voters in a way.

Speaker 5 (09:58):
I mean, or is that just maybe I'm in my
own little world up here, but I don't know. It
just doesn't feel right. And this plus it seems like
this guy came out of nowhere.

Speaker 1 (10:08):
Well yeah, I mean, he's thirty four years old, he's
got really no track record of any kind. Just boom,
one day he was there, much like you know a
Senator Barack Hussein Obama who served what two years in
the Senate after being a community organizer in Chicago, and
suddenly he's a presidential candidate.

Speaker 5 (10:25):
Yeah, I mean my off base there just a lot
of it sort of feels very similar. And yeah, I'm
trying to, you know, kind of throw a flag on
the play here. It just doesn't it doesn't smell right.
And but yeah, I just wonder if part of it's
like kind of Stockholm Center of like, hey, yeah, you
got us, We're going to vote for you.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
It's a little off the wall, John, But I'm not
going to tell you you're wrong, because something somewhere has
to make sense, and I can't figure out what that
something might be. Right now, I know that the results
are exactly what I expected and exactly what I worry
about all over this country, including right here in central Ohio.
