A life Do she love Oh, my God. Oh, my God. I've got a conversation going, what, about 15 hours a day, something like that. I've got videotapes I'm trying to capture and edit. I've got research I'm doing. I'm trying to finish my second book to get it off to the publisher. I've got several websites that we're working on and orders to fill and things that we have to record to put up on the website as archive programs so that you people can go and listen to them should you so desire. and I need about 400 more arms. I need about three times the energy that I have. I need about a couple hundred more sets of legs. I need at least two or three more brains. You know, I've got to have one sleeping while the other four or five are working. Aye, Chihuahua. Well, and it's fitting that I should tell you about all this because it's Memorial Day. And this is all in the service of my country, so if I work myself into the grave within the next few days, you guys can remember me on next Memorial Day. I hope that you have all done what is supposed to be done on Memorial Day, and that is remember all of those who have fought and died in the service of the Republic, not the United Nations. I have no sympathy whatsoever for American troops who go to fight the United Nations war and get killed. If they're dumb enough to do that, then what can I say? But all of those who truly fought and died in defense of the Republic, the principles and ideals that this nation was founded upon for freedom, for opportunity, for truth, for the nation that the Founding Fathers built. And don't write me any letters telling me how heartless I am because I don't care if somebody dies in the service of the United Nations. I don't. In fact, anybody in the service of the United Nations is ultimately in the service against this Republic, against me, against freedom. They're fighting actually for one world totalitarian socialist government. If I had my way, they'd all get killed. Or else they'd come to their senses, which is the number one choice that I would have. They would come to their senses and stop it. Stop it. Nope, I got no sympathy for caskets draped in UN blue. None at all. None at all. Will not remember them. Don't even care to know their names. And if they're members of the United States military forces, then as far as I'm concerned, when they put on a blue UN hat and went off to fight the United Nations wars, they committed treason. Treason. So, up their nose with a rubber hose, and you could write five million letters, wouldn't change my mind. Not for one second. Not for a second. I have a big glass of sun tea. I make my sun tea with jasmine tea. Now, if you've never had sun tea, folks, you are in for a big treat. You need to, especially if you like tea. If you don't like tea, you may not like sun tea. But, I know people who don't like tea normally, who love sun tea. It tastes totally different than tea that's brewed, you know, by boiling water on the stove, and pouring it over a tea bag, or, or into a tea pot with, with an infuser in there, full of, full of tea. It's delicious. Anybody can make it. It's very simple. And, you can make it with any kind of tea you want. And, you have to experiment, depending on the kind of tea bags you're using, because you have to use tea bags, unless you've got a big infuser. Because, because you need a gallon jug. You need to go to your grocery store, and you know, up there on the top shelf, you see these big, giant glass jars, that hold about a gallon, or two gallons. That's what you need to make sun tea. And, it's got to be a glass jar. It cannot be plastic, or anything else. It's got to be glass. It's okay if it has a plastic lid. Most of them have a plastic lid, with a lift up thing, that covers the spout hole. And, a lift up handle, so you can carry it. And, don't worry about carrying it with the handle. The ones that I've always had, you can carry a full jug of tea, with that handle, no problem, as long as you have the lid, screwed on really good. And, you fill it up with good water. Mountain spring water, right out of the ground, is the best. We've got plenty of that up here. But, you can use tap water, or you can use, water that you buy in the store, it doesn't matter. Fill it up, to within about an inch of the top. If you're going to use regular, tea that most people use, Lipton's, orange, pico tea, is what it's usually called. Then, buy the big box, that has the family bags in it. And, all you need is four of those family bags, and you put them in there, and drape the, the little strings over the side. Screw the lid on, set it out in the sun, for about three hours. That's all you need. And, voila, sun tea. You can use any kind of tea. I use a jasmine tea, and they're the small tea bags, so I have to use ten of those. And, if you use some other tea, you know, just experiment. Start off with five tea bags. If that's too weak, the next time you make it, you know, add the number that you think, is going to make it, to your taste. Et cetera, et cetera. If you're using the big, family size bags, though, all you need is four. That works really good. I just thought I'd throw that in, because I'm sitting here, having a, a nice, big, tall, refreshing glass of sun tea, and I think everybody should be entitled, to enjoy, that particular, well, to me, it's, to me, it's something really special. And, I make it just about every day, through the summer. I don't know what I would do, without it, to tell you the truth. And, in the winter, I have my, you ban, 100% Colombian coffee, every morning. And, sometimes, I get a little, thirst for coffee in the morning, during the summer, but not usually, when it's warm, I like my sun tea. So, tonight, I want to, take your calls, and talk about, what you think, about Memorial Day. Who did you think about? What, what was your, what was the gifts, gifts, I should say, of your Memorial Day. Good evening, you're on the air. Good morning, good, good evening, Mr. Cooper, I should say. By the way, happy Memorial Day. Well, thank you. And, by the way, your description of iced tea, was just absolutely perfect. This sounds like, Route 66, man. No, no, no, no, this is not, this is Wayne, from North Carolina. Oh, Wayne, you sound just like, a friend of mine. Oh, no, I don't, no, I'm from North Carolina, I'm not. Okay. But anyway, your, your, your, your prescription, man, subscription, for iced tea, sounds just exactly correct, for today, and I just wanted to say, I enjoyed the show a lot, that's about all I had to offer. What'd you do, I just wanted to call. What'd you do for Memorial Day? What'd I do for Memorial Day? Well, I, uh, finished a little bit, but we didn't catch anything. Did you remember anybody? Did I remember anyone? Yeah. I remember my dad, um, my dad was a, uh, veteran of World War II, he was in the Marines, and he was, uh, he was on Saipan, he was Jima in Okinawa. Oh, he was in the, and, uh, he was a really rough, tough character. He came out unscathed, but he was a, uh, he went through Saipan and Iwo Jima, I bet he is, I, he had to be a rough character, because, uh, the wimps didn't survive those battles. No, and, but I mean, he was, he was a really, uh, fine American, a fine Marine, and I do remember my dad, here on this, uh, well, this Memorial Day, he was, he was a proud Marine. Well, good for him. That's all I have, Mr. Cooper. Thank you for calling. Thank you. 520-333-4578. Give us a call. Tell us who you remembered for Memorial Day, and why. I remembered, uh, quite a few people. Um, a lot of my relatives who fought and died in, uh, in, uh, World War II in Korea, some who didn't die, but nevertheless, uh, gave quite a bit. World War I, my grandfather was gassed with mustard gas, and, uh, pretty much ruined him for the rest of his life. Although he died, uh, at 86 of old age, he was, uh, he was hurt pretty bad by that mustard gas. He didn't live a pretty, he didn't live a, uh, a good life. Good evening. You're on the air. Hello, Steve in Pennsylvania here. Hi, Steve. How you been? Okay. Well, I was just sitting here and having to catch your show, and I, uh, certainly appreciate the topic. Memorial Day is a very important holiday for me. Well, unfortunately, most people think it's a holiday to go camping and fishing and cook wieners on the barbecue, and they never even give it a thought. Well, I think there's room for fun. It doesn't have to be, uh, totally solemn, because if you're celebrating freedom... No, I'm not criticizing people for having fun, also, but I am criticizing those who, never give the, the, the purpose of the day a thought. Boy, that's, that's right on the money, I'll tell you. And, and I'd say that's probably 90% of the American people. Well, the vast majority, no doubt. Yeah. I, uh, happen to, uh, take part in a, a nice, uh, parade and, uh, memorial service in, uh, Gettysburg, Pennsylvania today. Oh, tell us about it. That sounds, uh, very interesting. Well, they've been, uh, doing it about 130-some years now, every year. That was a pretty good crowd. Uh, streets were lined, and, uh, I happened to, uh, own a military vehicle in 1951 M38, and I like to show up in a parade. Uh-huh. I took it through the parade, and then the service at the, uh, Gettysburg National Cemetery was very impressive. And, uh, that was, that was one group of people who were remembering, undoubtedly. Sure. The, uh, Civil War dead buried there. It's, uh, very, uh, startling realization to see row upon row. Yeah, I had, uh, family members who fought on both sides of that conflict. Yeah, there are a few Confederate soldiers buried there, but, uh, the majority were taken home. I remember when I was a young boy, I don't remember how old I was, but it was, uh, in the early 50s. It was in the early 50s. I got to see the last, I forget if it was two or three living Confederate Civil War, uh, veterans. They had a, uh, a parade in Biloxi, Mississippi, and the last living Confederate Civil War veterans who were boys when they fought in the war, uh, were in that parade. Well, that's, that's a memory to hold. Uh, at today's event, there was a World War I veteran. They're, they're getting very rare these days. Yep, they are. He was about 102 years old, but, uh, looking pretty good, and, uh, I gave him, uh, the kind word and said, uh, thanks very much for coming out and, uh, giving us a chance to meet you. It was a, uh, a proud moment, and I just wanted to let you know that, uh, that was one little corner of America that, uh, that I got a firm hold on Memorial Day. Well, thank you. I appreciate it very much. Thank you. Have a good evening. You too. 520-333-4578, the number. I forget how old those guys were. I was just a boy. I think I was maybe in the, uh, fifth grade. Couldn't have been more than the fifth grade, and, uh, we, we, we went from the Azores, where we lived for three years, to Biloxi, Mississippi, for just a few months, while my father went to some school, at, uh, whatever Air Force Base is there, and then we went to, uh, Oklahoma, to, uh, Midwest City, where my father was stationed at Tinker Air Force Base for three years, and, uh, I went to a brand new, brand new junior high school called Monroney Junior High School in Midwest City, Oklahoma, and then we went to Japan. Good evening. You're on the air. Hi, Bill. Uh, this is Joe from Pennsylvania. Hi, Joe. And, uh, I was speaking actually about my uncle, uh, still living, uh, his name is Ted Moran. He's in Ohio. And, he was a survivor of the Bataan Death March. Wow. Yeah, um, yeah, that, that, that, uh, that was, did you ever read the story of that? Yeah, I did. There's several good ones. Uh, there's some written by, people who were in it, some written by people who researched it, and, uh, talked to the survivors, and the, and the Japanese who participated too. That was, uh, that was, uh, that was incredible that anybody survived it. Yeah, uh, pretty amazing that he, that he managed to escape, and, um, I believe he lived, uh, approximately a year and a half in the jungle. In the jungle, yeah. Yeah. That wasn't a good life either. He came back, and apparently, I think he weighed about 90 pounds, when he got back. Well, that sounds about right. Yeah. But, uh, that's what I was, I was thinking about him today. Well, good for you. Yeah, I don't know, I'd love to hear, I don't, I would imagine that there are probably, uh, a few guys out there, uh, who may even be listening right now. I'd love to hear some of the veterans, actually. Any of them particularly have been in that. Um, you know, there's, I think there's a co-op of nationwide, uh, group to get them together. Yeah, most veterans don't like to talk publicly about their experiences, though. I find it, um, I find it very difficult to talk about mine. Um, and the, the, the, the couple of occasions that I've ever done it, it was very hard. All right. Well, um, certainly thank you for, uh, taking the time to listen. You're welcome. Thanks for calling. 5 2 0 3 3 3 4 5 7 8. Yeah, my brother's the same way. Whenever he starts talking about his, uh, service, he got the silver star in Vietnam. Whenever he starts talking about it, he, uh, and it's awful hard to get him to talk about it, but when he does, it's, uh, he talks real low and real slow and not very long and always ends with, the eyes full of tears. 5 2 0 3 3 3 4 5 7. Who did you remember on veterans day? And why? Well, the phone is not ringing. Maybe, you know, I'm talking to the 90%. Oh my goodness. This is not good. You mean that, uh, that you guys didn't think about to the, all the people who fought and died for this country and you don't have anything to call and talk about? Is that what's going on here? Because it is. It's a sad day in black rock. Got to tell you, bad day, black rock. Good evening. You're on the air. Hello. Hello. Oh, boy, here we go with one of those. A clown. 5 2 0 3 3 3 4 5 7 8 is the number. Memorial Day, folks, is, uh, is not for what a lot of people think it is. It's to remember those who fought and died for the Republic. Good evening. You're on the air. How are you doing, Mr. Cooper? Good. Well, today I did think I have, uh, some folks. I had an uncle. Uh, he's passed away. Now he's been gone for, I guess, about 20 years. He fought in World War II and, uh, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was in the U.S. Marine Corps. He gave me his knife, uh, that he had when he was in World War II. Mm-hmm. In the Marine Corps. And I still have that knife. And, uh, you know, I, I keep it. It's in safe keeping. But, every now and again, I'll take it out and I'll remember, you know, my Uncle Jim. And, uh, you know, he used to tell me, uh, you know, some of the things that happened to him in World War II when they were island hopping in the Pacific. And, and, uh, so yeah, I thought about him. And, you know, I, I served six years in the United States Army myself. But I served under Ronald Reagan, which was peacetime. So I, you know, I didn't have to fight in any war. Mm-hmm. But, uh, you know, I, I thought about my time in the military service. I, I was proud to serve my country, although I was, not awake, uh, to the reality of the world situation the way it really was. I was, I was proud to serve my country, you know. Yeah. We, we don't always know what we're serving. And, uh, in the tradition of those who serve, we, uh, we adopted this proud attitude, uh, that we're serving our country. And sometimes we're not. Yeah. And, um, well, fortunately, you didn't have to do any of that. There's lots of our military people who are not serving this country today. They're serving world government. And, uh, that's disgraceful. Yeah. And, uh, there's very few that are, that are standing up. One of the, one of the, than that are, of course, is Michael New. Yep. Uh, a courageous young man who, who did fight it. And, uh, but you're right. The overwhelming majority, uh, they're going lockstep, uh, into this. Oh, sure. Yeah. And it's an all volunteer force now, which means that, that most of the ones who are serving, aren't serving for patriotic reasons. The person who registered for the draft and was drafted and went in and took his physical and went and did his time, he was serving for patriotic reasons. A lot of people who volunteer are also serving for patriotic reasons, but most of them aren't. It's, uh, it's, it's a good way to, um, to, um, be taken care of very well for 20 years and get a real nice, comfortable retirement. Yeah. They're, they're basically paid mercenaries. They're socialists is what they are. Yeah. I, you know, I just, if, if I were a young man, you know, 18 years old, getting out of high school today and, and looking at the military and, and what it does under the United Nations banner, uh, I couldn't do it. You know, back then, when I joined in 1979, uh, you know, we weren't flying under the United Nations banner anywhere. Uh, but now it's, it just seems like, you know, desert storm was the United Nations operation. Uh, what we did in Yugoslavia, uh, Haiti, everywhere we go, it's, it's, we're doing it under the UN banner. Yeah. And it's just, I mean, it's, it's so obvious right now, you know, what, what's taking place that, uh, you know, I, I couldn't in good conscience go into the military and, uh, and serve. Yeah. And that's sad to say. It is sad to say, but they're not serving this country anymore. And, uh, I got news for you. It, our military is so, so, um, well, how can I put it? Almost destroyed. I, I guess there isn't any other way. Our military is destroyed. And, and if the, the communist Chinese had a way to land their army on these shores, our military could not protect us. It would be, the citizens would have to do it. Yeah. It's been destroyed. Literally. I know. I saw a, um, a television program not long ago about the training for Marine boot camp, United States Marines. And I sat there and I watched it and I had this sinking feeling in my chest. Those weren't Marines. Uh, it was, uh, that was pathetic. The guys that I served with in Vietnam were Marines. These guys who are serving today are not Marines. Uh, I don't know how to describe it. You'd have to see that, that program. It was about an hour and a half long. And it showed the, it went, you know, through with, uh, with the men and the women. They're separated into two groups. And it shows their training and what they went through and how they're treated and all that kind of stuff. Um, I hate to say it, but these guys wouldn't have survived. It's, Taipan or Iwo Jima or, uh, Okinawa or any of those places. They just, they wouldn't have survived. Period. Well, you know, I've, I've been hearing that, um, a lot of the good patriotic American types are exiting out of the military because of the situation in there. that morale is bad and, uh, what the Clintons have done to the military that, uh, the good people are just getting out. Sure. And it's, and it's not just because of that. It's also because of what they see that's being taught. Uh, and it's, and it's what they, what they see that they're, that they're being required to do. Uh, and it's the political correctness, even in the military. It's not military anymore. It's, it's an arm of the police. It's a political correct, uh, uh, Marxist, you know, dialectic. It's, uh, it's sick. It is really sick. And, and they're, they, they've hardly got any equipment anymore. They don't have what they need to, to fight a war. Um, it's really sad. You know, I was listening to another radio talk show and, and, uh, guy, the guest made a good point that, uh, the veterans that fought in, in our past wars, you know, the revolutionary war, the civil war, whatever, you know, uh, the Spanish American war, World War I, even World War II. If they were around today in America, and, to see what has happened to America. Oh, they'd be, they'd be, uh, they'd be ashamed. And they'd be very angry. Yeah. Yeah. Well, Mr. Cooper, it's been nice talking to you. Well, thank you for calling. Have a good evening. Appreciate it. 520-333-4578. How was your Memorial Day? What did you, uh, do? Who did you think about, and why? See, Memorial Day is set aside to remember, so that their death will not have been in vain, to remember those who fought and died for the Republic. Good evening. You're on the air. Good evening, Bill. This is David from Ohio. I, uh, I liked your last several comments with this, what past car. When you realize that the, uh, the military now has become a political arm of the Marxist state, maybe the best idea is for you to convince, patriots, or I mean, um, and veterans to boycott any Memorial Day. That would draw, uh, Well, we can't boycott Memorial Day because that's boycotting those who fought and died for the nation. It's not, it's not about the military that's in, in, uh, service now. It's not about them. Memorial Day has nothing to do with people who are in service right now. Well, even the past wars are kind of questionable. You know that. Some of them are, yes, very much so. Especially World War I and World War II. The British got, that's a pretty war for the British. But it's, it still does not negate the sacrifice that those men made, uh, really believing that they were fighting for their country. And I think World War II, uh, even though we didn't have any business in that war, uh, I think that was a good war that needed to be fought. And, um, and I think the people who fought it did a damn good job. It's just that after they got out, they quit fighting it and, and went on the dole. And, uh, you know, they stuck their hand out. Oh yeah, I remember those guys. What do they call it? The 52, 30 club or something. They got 52. I don't know. They all stuck their, stuck their hands out. And then, you know, and then step back on their laurels and let the country go to hell. The country is in the shape it's in right now, mainly due to World War I and World War II veterans sitting back and saying, gimme, gimme, gimme. I fought for my country and turning it into a socialist, uh, Hey, you said it very well. I, I, that's what I mean. Why, why, why shouldn't we then boycott it? Because it doesn't take away from the sacrifice of the men who died. It's not about those who live. Don't get it confused. It's not about those who live. Yeah. It's about those who died. Those who gave the ultimate sacrifice and service of their country. But you see, everything's going on as normal. You, you, you say it very well, but the average person doesn't understand why. And they never will. So it doesn't make any difference to even talk to them. They don't, they don't give a damn in the first place. If the troop veterans and patriots boycott Memorial Day. You can't boycott a day set aside to honor the day. Honor the dead. You understand what I'm saying? Pick a day that honors the living. Pick a day that honors those who are responsible for all this crap. The dead are not responsible. But you're not achieving anything because the other day. Yeah, I am. I'm, I'm honoring those who died in service of the Republic is what I'm achieving. And that's what I'm supposed to achieve. I'm not supposed to achieve anything else on this day. If I achieve something else on this day, then I've done a double good. You know, I do sympathize with your injuries from Vietnam. I've been fortunate. I haven't lost any relatives in any of the war. Almost. But still, I think we have to draw attention to something that's really wrong today by not. Yeah, why do you need a special day to do that? I do it every day. Why do you need a special day to do that? I agree with what you're saying. But see, and what makes you think it would work? If, if I asked all the veterans in the United States and all the patriots in the United States to, to, to, to march with me next month on Washington, D.C. You know how many would show up? Very few, yeah. Probably about 25 or 30. It would be a disgrace. All right, but wouldn't it, it would be an embarrassment. A lot of patriots listen to you and veterans. And so if Bill Cooper says, hey, we got a new paradigm here about this veteran state. Sure, we, we missed and we're sorry for this. This is not, this is, this is not Veterans Day. This is Memorial Day. Memorial Day. All right, I'm sorry. Memorial Day. I'm not as stupid, really, as I talk sometimes, Bill. I, I worked around intelligence officers. Well, then don't open your mouth until you know what you're going to say. Well, all right. How can you say Veterans Day for Memorial Day? it's just a slip of the tongue, you know? That happens. Yeah, yeah, Bill Clinton does it all the time. Yeah, I know. And, uh, what can be more dramatic than what's already happened? I mean, if Waco, Texas, didn't draw people's attention to it, what makes you think a bunch of veterans sitting in their ass in a park protesting Memorial Day would do it? I think it would. I'm telling you right now, it wouldn't do a damn thing. Probably wouldn't even rate a mention on the news. No, wait, wait, wait. All right, maybe it wouldn't, but it would wake up some... Wouldn't wake up anybody. If Waco didn't wake them up, veterans sitting down in a park protesting with a bunch of signs isn't going to wake anybody up. No, wait. Veterans, veterans are confused. You know, older veterans. They want to sit there and... They're not confused at all. They know that they get their money and their benefits and their medical care from the government and they ain't going to do a damn thing to jeopardize that. Bill, there's still a few who might be convinced that they see fellow veterans... If Waco, Texas didn't do it, Bill Cooper, asking them to put up signs and sit in the park or march down Main Street isn't going to do it either. What in the world would ever make you think that it would? Hey, I think you've got to try. I know Waco is a, well, whatever the word is, a waterloo or something to make people wake up, but they... I think you have to add a little more. What? What? What? Veterans. But veterans what? Veterans aren't going to march against the government. They get their money from the government. They get their hand out from the government. They're socialists on the dole. They get their medical care from the government. That's right. They're not going to do anything to piss off the government. I know, I know. Then why do you keep saying it if you know you know? You might get a few bills. You don't know. Or you wouldn't be... You might get a few bills that you don't know about. Good night. All right. Good night. Thanks for calling. Thanks for calling. Ain't going to happen, my friend. About the only thing you can get veterans to march against the government about is MIAs. POWs. Good evening. You're on the air. Yeah. Hi, William. Hi. Yeah, I went to a parade in Albany, New York today. And I was struck by public health. Getting out in a crowd, cross-section of people who turned out. And particularly the young folks marching in the parade. The state of public health is not good. State of public health is not good? Explain what you mean. Pudgy. Pudgy. Poor posture. Poor posture. Okay. Poor, you know, bad complexions. I could look at the picture of any crowd taken at any time in the history of the country and see the same thing. Yeah, well, I'd say part of the problem is public health. And my suspicion is if you took a look at the young people being indoctrinated in the People's Liberation Army of China, that the public health in China right now is probably far superior to the public health in the United States. It always has been. And that's just about in any Asian country. And it's mainly because of their diet and the fact that they really have to work for a living. Absolutely. Most Americans don't do any exercise in their work day. Most Orientals do. Yeah. It doesn't bode well for the future. And it's the class of people who came off the farms of the United States and fought World War II were a much different crowd of people. Yeah. I was thinking too about my statement. If you take the pictures of the crowds on like Victory VJ Day Victory over Japan or VE Day Victory over Europe Vital people. You'll see that most of them are thin and in shape. That's because all of the men went to fight the war. Right. And they were in shape by virtue of having been in military service and almost everybody you see in those pictures are in uniform Right. or have come back and are in their first set of civilian clothes. You usually tell that because they don't fit very well. Right. But that's the only time. Any other time in history if you look at the pictures of crowds you see you see the same thing. You see overweight men and women and Well if you want to be if you want to be really discerning you take a look at the ears of the World War II generation. Ears? Yeah. The size of the ears. If you want to size up you know a population in terms of their constitution their native vigor you take a look at the ears of people from the World War II generation and you take a look at the ears now of young people. I've never heard this before in my life. What do ears have to do with it? Well it's very traditional belief in the Orient that you can determine someone's constitution particularly by the size of their ears. They would relate it directly to the ears being analogous to the kidneys. They look to a degree like the kidneys. Now I'm studying Chinese medicine right now and I haven't seen that anywhere yet. That doesn't mean I'm not going to see it further down the line but I haven't seen that yet. When an Oriental physician sizes somebody up in the initial consultation they will size them up in terms of looking at such things like that. How do you know that? Because I've studied it myself. No I just asked you how do you know that? Did you read it in the book? I follow you. No I have since being apprised of that and doubting it to a degree myself I've come to start looking and I can confirm you know it's a tentative thing I don't know for sure but I think if you start looking around at the ears of people in the World War II generation and the ears of youth today you'll see a decrease in the size overall and you'll see a lessening of the lobe of the ear in particular. Huh. Well it's interesting I don't know if what you're saying is true or not but it's interesting. I understand. Take a look at Al Gore and he has what the Chinese call Oh come on you're going to subject me to torture? You're going to make me look at Al Gore? He has what the Chinese call wolf ears. He has no lobes and his ears point up and back. Oh that's Dr. Spock. You sure you don't have Dr. Spock confused with Al Gore? Yeah well take a look at him he has a wolf ears. Alright next time I see a picture of Al Gore I'll do that. But what does that mean? Oh I think that the Chinese probably chose the term wolf on purpose. It probably is a person who tends to be avaricious and lacks wisdom because somebody who has wisdom is generally speaking not overly avaricious. Hmm. Okay. Well what I originally was calling to know was the public health situation and there to me it's fair to say that the franchised food industry and the large food processing corporations which are in the forefront of the move towards transnational business are to my mind with malice of forethought creating foodstuffs for example you take a look at the company called Kraft Foods they're pushing onto the populace foodstuffs which are designed What's all this got to do with Memorial Day? Why are you taking us way off track here? Well I don't Why don't you call in on the night when we're talking about health? I mean you've got us way off on this cul-de-sac and that's not where we're supposed to be tonight. Well I'll relate it right back we cannot honor the men and some few women who've fallen in battle to protect this republic if we allow preceding generations to degenerate because of improper dietary practices. Yeah but you're fighting human nature you see it used to be that people had to work for a living I mean they really had to work today they don't and it is human nature to take the easy way out if you can buy fast food instead of spending an hour at the stove cooking a dinner that's what most people are going to do and you're not going to change that and if they go to work and they sit at a desk and if there's no reason for them to exercise in order to perform their work they're not likely to do it during their time off and make work for themselves when they would rather be enjoying themselves so you're fighting human nature and that's not likely to happen gotta let you go thanks for calling yeah folks whenever you try to fight human nature you usually lose that's why most diets don't work you're fighting human nature good evening you're on the air good evening this is Tim down in Red Rock Texas hi Tim and today being Memorial Day I'm not a vet but I got down on my knees and I thanked God for the vets that have died for this republic and I wanted to call and thank you for your service to our republic in the service and now well thank you we need more people like you we're in a mess we are we are in a mess I live in a real small town I went and hung out at the general store a little while today until I thanked the vet face to face I wasn't satisfied until I did that today well good for you that was a very nice thing to do that's I don't do a whole lot I'm disabled so I'm just fighting the information war down in my neck of the woods well we all have to fight however we can fight but we have to fight however we can fight right well okay that's really what I wanted to say just thank you for your service in the past and now well thank you God bless you Bill God bless you too good night sir thank you for calling 520-333-4578 is the number good evening you're on the air good evening Bill I just wanted to say this morning when I ran the colors of the flag poll thought about my father who fought in world war 2 and my grandfather who fought in world war 1 and I'd like to say my grandfather also was gassed in the trenches in France during world war 1 with mustard gas well he might have been with my grandfather good possibility I don't have his scrapbook candy but and I couldn't pronounce the names of those places if I tried I can't even French is one language I couldn't speak if my life depended on my tongue it would just not twist in those directions I still can't say mister I still have his scrapbook that covered all that but I think probably the most moving today I spent the day just working around the house cleaning the kitchen and I guess about 5 o'clock local time I listen to family radio and they put on the battle hymn of the republic and it was a particularly beautiful rendition and I just kind of stopped what I was doing and tears started to roll down my eye and I have in my hallway was my father's he used to have it in his house is a painting of a constitution soldier what was it the continental soldier and I kind of stopped where that music was playing and I looked at that and I just thought of all those that died in the revolution and at this point I'd just like to request sometime in the future if you could dig out a copy of the battle hymn of the republic I am extremely partial I just put it in the CD carrier as you were speaking because I knew that's what you were going to do well God bless and I'd like to thank all those that died and those that are still alive that fought for the freedoms that unfortunately we're losing but maybe we'll wake up we're not losing them we're giving them away well God bless thank you and thank you for calling I've got a real wonderful version of the battle hymn of the republic but that would take me too long to find it so we'll close out with this version that I've got handy real close here and maybe if I can find the other one real quick while we're while we're taking calls well here it is by God I just found the best one okay alright I just found the best one okay 520-333-457-87 we'll close out tonight with the battle hymn of the republic that is a fitting very fitting musical selection to play on close out the hour of the time on memorial day let me see which one is it okay there it is okay oops what did I do here burn it 520-333-457-87 is the number so give us a call good evening you're on the air say that again I want to remember the men on the USS Scorpion that died in submarine yes yep I saw the Scorpion a couple months before it went on its mission in lower Spain and interesting thing was that was its last stop wasn't it pardon me wasn't that its last port of call road of Spain it was going on a mission and they wouldn't allow him any liberty that one fact I never heard anywhere I saw it and I don't know what their mission was well you're never going to I can tell you that right now that's just something you will never know they don't call it the silent service for nothing I was in submarines and it is the silent service very seldom does anything ever very seldom is anything ever disclosed about submarine operations ever and I'm telling you right now you'll be absolutely amazed at what they're really doing what they've really done you talk about some heroes amazing stuff thank you for calling and thank you for bringing that up yes we should remember the men of the scorpion lost at sea with all hands and to this day nobody really knows absolutely for sure what happened even though the United States Navy believes that they found the cause and corrected it hopefully they're right 520-333-4578 is the number you see when something goes wrong with a submarine underwater that's usually the last thing that ever goes wrong 520-333-4578 what did you do on memorial day who did you remember and why waiting for you you know who you are I can look right through this microphone put my eye right up here see right through the cord goes through the mixing board up through the comrex and out across the country through the phone lines to WBCQ out over the airwaves down your antenna into your radio and I'm looking at you right through your speaker good evening you're on the air hi Bill can you hear me okay yeah I saw you before you I saw you go and dial the phone I was watching the whole time that's pretty good well today on memorial day I remembered all those souls I've seen leave this planet in the jungles of Vietnam through Chulai and walking long range reconnaissance patrol and those men that were blown up by land mines and booby traps and I saw many many souls leave the planet and I don't know their names but I certainly I certainly thank them and I remember them in my heart and mind each and every day and wonder why it wasn't me too but I realized that the freedoms we have now on this planet are because of them and how wonderful it is but then I come home and I turn cable on and you watch a movie or something you see how Hollywood portrays those people smoking dope and you were in Vietnam weren't you yes sir and it wasn't like that was it no it was nothing like that no it sure wasn't people brainwashed into believing it was like that believe me there was no counter barriers there was none of that going on at all no racism we were brothers and we were out there when we were fighting a war in that stinking filthy jungle and we did it with honor and we'll continue to be soldiers all the rest of our life because they don't take that from us that's true and Oliver Stone Oliver Stone if you're listening I want to say this on the air I said it before I want to say it again you're a despicable stinking liar you hear me Oliver Stone and the rest of you jerks in Hollywood who wanted to grade the American soldiers American soldiers in Vietnam were like American soldiers anywhere else they were in the military they were in the military they had non-commissioned officers above them and officers above them they ate slept worked and died together they didn't do any of those things if an American soldier smoked a joint he went off by himself and smoked a joint because if he'd have got caught he would have been court-martialed or worse if he'd have been in the field he might have been shot so thank you for bringing that up yes Bill people don't realize what it's like to hold a man in their arms on his dying he's set on a landmine or something he's blown in half and he's dying and going into shock and he's relaying these things to you saying that all our friends that left before us are hovering over the battlefield watching us encouraging us all the time he's leaving and how wonderful I've never been so close to death but that's the only time I really was alive I do believe is being that close to death well we all know about that don't we I talked about that on a couple of occasions very hard to explain it to people who've never experienced it you're more alive than at any other time in your life because you know that any second you could be dead yes and thank you Bill for serving I love you and thank you very much you're welcome thank you for calling yep and a real hot beer tastes damn good it's like walking on a razor blade light is brighter everything is more beautiful nothing escapes your sight or your hearing good evening you're on the air Bill Cooper yes yeah yeah I spent Memorial Day I always spend Memorial Day going around to the different grave sites of my family and one was my uncle my uncle James Miller he was in Vietnam he served and he died of just about everything you know he had lupus and cancer and kidney disease and you name it he got into something and all these specialists were coming around you know but I remember him because I was the waste in the 60s you know and my family I look forward to him coming back home he went back on a second tour of dirty duty on his own but you were right the first time second tour of dirty well yeah yeah but you know he gave it his all and I remember that because he would come back and you know he bounced me up and down on his knee and boy we sure were glad to see him and now he's gone yeah but we sure do remember him it's Agent Orange that does all those things to us you know until I listened to your broadcast I never really realized you know I think of it in my own mind I never heard you say this but I think that my family used to tell me gee he has all these specialists coming from all over the country gee I wonder why you know they're looking they're studying the effects of this stuff Agent Orange yeah that was that's what got us I still have the effects of Agent Orange every day is that right yeah but we were we were right at the place where that was most heavily sprayed the DMZ was the most heavily defoliated place on the face of this earth ever in the history of this earth and all of the runoff from the DMZ came down into the river that we patrolled and took baths in and swam in and everything we had no idea that we had no idea what was in that river that still affects most of us to this day well Bill I'm going to salute you even though I was a never any branch of the service I'm going to salute you as a civilian to whatever rank you were and I sure do appreciate what you did in your line well thank you very much bye bye thanks for calling well that's it folks good night God bless each and every single one of you and before you go to bed tonight think about those who died who gave the final greatest sacrifice that anyone could
