-- -- -- They will fail -- soon Islamic gonna win this.
I am very confident that he will and if it's comfortable margin and that's not clear.
And then I think it plans more.
CIBER atmosphere of inevitability that she will be the nominee and maybe we can.
Get off of this and onto the real fight which will be between Romney and Obama.
But.
Some of our friends in the media are enjoying trying to prolong -- -- possible.
They will remain on named here by.
-- well look MSNBC.
I mean though as the pundits terrorist watch in this -- why -- you may not be able to get there if he doesn't do well in Wisconsin blah blah blah.
I think that down I think he is certainly got a solid lead I think he has not done as well as we hope none of us ever do in.
In campaigns.
Since that's that's that's not true yeah.
Well you know all of us have our.
Our opinion I think he's a very fine and decent person and I think he's got to find Stanley I guess tolerate -- side.
Imminent change sometimes when his opponent's attack him from making money call my god.
And I think he has -- Has run a good campaign and I think he will be the nominee and I think it's going to be very concentration November.
I actually think you meant a great presence -- -- do true you're -- -- dollar items and the result intent on snapping at me.
I'm -- I'm -- there are battling cancer what's obviously you don't give a damn about.
I'm definitely not and obviously not overall years that we've known and loved each other editors about -- -- about that.
So overall excellent but my dream ticket actually is -- they'll allies say give -- -- election -- -- -- -- -- misunderstood by the same.
-- -- -- -- -- -- They did you say the movie game change.
No course not.
Of course Matt I would not.
I watch the Phoenix Coyotes to treat the San Jose Sharks real enough and big game tonight against tell us by the way -- know your fan.
And a friend no I'm not befriended Imus wants to purchase -- -- that they're portrayed -- the world -- -- So on.
Well she's like she's but he issues a wonderful person -- obviously the brains of the outfit we've known that for many years.
This is -- That's it hasn't I think yet.
-- tac coarse language.
That but most importantly the whole.
-- so that is to continue to assault the assault on Sarah Palin who I think is a very fine and decent.
And good person and the undeserving of the merciless -- she continues to get from the left and but that's that's what it is so much -- how it is but I don't have to watch it.
Also accidentally -- -- Senator John McCain announced an important.
That's a good -- -- an executive -- -- -- -- that Russian troops and are now all.
Well I think that if we want to stand by eight.
Don and -- massacre.
Two which we will regret in later years then.
Debt situation that this present who leads from behind can make but.
We went to Libya and Libby is a free country now by the way the prime minister and deputy prime minister of Libya -- performer professorship at the University of Alabama number -- let.
Are they may be al-Qaeda routine -- -- from both right and left well.
They're going to be a country that maybe doesn't do everything we want to -- but certainly not on the Qaddafi did this guy.
Slaughtering people with tanks and artillery and I'm terrified.
There are weapons coming in from Russia and -- Iranians on the ground and -- as well as their equipment and their Gaon from -- From -- city this city in massacring people if we wanna stand by and watched that.
Frankly.
I understand the war weariness of the American people.
But I also remember Bosnia and Kosovo wonder.
-- President Clinton was president and he says that America has to do what is the right thing because.
It's not our.
It's not our role to stand by while people are being massacred if we can do something about it.
And every time you'll hear from the Pentagon and you hear from the left we can't do additional way this is the most formidable.
Array of air defenses we've ever faced we're spending 700 billion dollars a year on defense.
If we can't take out serious air defenses.
Men my friend we have.
You wasted your tax dollars on defense even more than you ever imagined.
And I want to know what what what more that what would be good.
All our experience routes for Russian troops are now also a subtle micro and the -- are.
I think I think that -- -- again rush this isolated themselves to an enormous.
Grieved by.
If they're doing that but let me also point -- I'm not talking about American boots on the ground I'm not talking about America going -- I'm talking -- -- the United States with other countries but America has to lead.
Where we would establish a sanctuary for these people.
So that they can in.
Organized and they are not as well organized as we want them to be now and where they can.
Train and equip and we can use -- foreign air power to do as we did in Libya although none of these.
Scenarios.
Are the same they're all different but their principles are the same.
And we could help these people attain.
What are we always believed -- people's god given rights and it's sad to watch.
It's -- to watch -- it was a little thing on CNN last night about little children who have been named.
The indiscriminate killing of people and we can do something about it.
And -- going to Renault agreed to me.
There they have the money in every -- holiday ends and it's just another China would mean higher -- -- to write about -- and I'm in the same -- Questions were asked in Bosnian and costs.
And Libya.
It was the same -- questions US and my answer is with the strongest sort of most powerful and most influential nation in the world.
And we don't have to go to -- we don't have to have American boots on the ground.
And not a single American was lost in the that in bringing Libya from small market he has a credible -- but.
And and we could do this too if we had put our minds to it.
And again I understand why a majority of Americans are opposed -- that.
That's because we haven't had a president who will lead -- the -- would go on national television and say here's the massacres 101000 people have been killed.
We're gonna join with other countries and we're gonna try to help these people fight -- a fair fight.
Right now it's tanks and artillery against AK 47.
Then I think the American people as they did over time with Bosnian Kosovo under president Clinton's leadership.
That you would see Americans -- standing out as we always have for.
At providing things go forward fighting for -- -- there -- a bit lower than bunds should tendencies.
The tendencies other countries to provide everything other than token participation.
I don't want to -- -- -- -- What kind of review weak lead from behind it was a British and the French in the UAE and -- that that led all we did -- support.
So -- that's not necessarily so.
I think we need to lead I think the Arab countries -- are the Arab League and particularly.
Some of the gulf states are more than willing and are doing some help me giving some help right now.
But it requires American leadership.
So anyway I.
To leave it to.
I thank you -- friendly fire -- some -- southern China to an announcement program limits until now.
