Did you know that there's something bigger happening to the economies and then just -- normal.
-- of a recession -- that are you have a profound change in the way Americans were given what they work that had to work.
And that's been going on really over fifteen years or more it's been a big transition technology is changing everything you have.
Either way you have manufacturing coming back you don't have a -- number of people coming back because robots stipulated that he appreciated its software technology computers driving things.
And the result is that.
Added I have society like cars you see it in Japan it is Europe have a harder time.
That you could well I think that the the work people -- the same goods did you have to transitions.
And we haven't made frankly the right choices Portugal it does because we've -- into this ideological road block in congress.
Where good ideas don't even get the -- -- -- energy policy.
-- we've tried to do an energy policy.
And we read into this you know coal industry and others spending huge amounts of money does prevent change.

I did I didn't hurt them but that.
Don't know for a fact I've read -- haven't -- I -- you know he's somebody wrote an article in the last days a camera words but really.
Talking about do.
This is an extraordinary.
Evolution under the -- unlike expected comparative to The Rolling Stones or this other group where.
You know it's still play their old stuff but I absolutely don't lot of new things has served notice when they go out its beauty -- -- Neil -- so -- But advocates of -- especially with the wrecking ball.
That you don't album and -- -- -- just just a whole new.
Experiment the guys willing to they're trying to do something different and he keep it seems to stay in touch with the transitions that Americans social culture to.
Which a lot of folks still decide.
Due to due to that it is.
Bird specials that way.
Must correlate to the party on not.
Springsteen but I really -- -- it to.
Is -- just some solid gold plated during his re election -- really good -- -- -- And then you know.
-- -- closer to go to our constant ago and so the it's on on.
That'll -- -- you know it's partly.
Your responses to do you look around this is some folks that you're not sure.
That you you know necessarily would see -- -- but it's -- it's great that I think just to reflect.
Visitors -- kids so what that's just.
When -- one -- to delay until senator John turn.
It was warm all -- Colorado weren't Colorado.
It's I was born -- Arora.
-- at this Fitzsimmons general hospital.
Army hospital my dad was in the army air corps and even temporarily.
And temporarily there in Denver because it is being treated for public debt that PP.
And they can -- there.
And if he hadn't quiet but I appeared on the scene of the conservative supporters of the assets of the general hospital type I got to visit that dominoes running for president.
Actually went into the very delivery room because that it is not be used anymore that that component of it.
But.
Thought about that needless to say the other day one.
I thought about.
Coming into -- and that played them all -- that we lost the other it's.
It's -- tough comparison but.
This just if beyond did imagination when -- -- -- like that club duly did we have much of that in America.
There's support the -- of assault weapons and armor are symbol associated -- Absolutely I do voted for in fact I left the campaign trail.
You know -- come back to Washington specifically to vote on that band.
Notwithstanding what the other it would -- do it quickly did.
But it -- just that it doesn't doesn't make sense that I the government just begin by saying that I.
I do supply support the Second Amendment I don't see anybody who's about changes to get rid -- that are threatened that.
It's too -- in America.
That that we are.
A country that protects that that right that goes back our founding this deeper than that you know lots of people can't -- people believe that want to write a self defense -- they deserve it.
-- I support all of that.

Side mostly get the overload clips and so forth and and you know to have selling.
Bullets that are armor piercing.
But so they go -- until a cop.
Or some other law enforcement -- just doesn't make sense estimate.
-- you know we've -- that ban and various parts of the country that we did very well that that nobody threatened to come after people's guns -- take them away.
Surely there's a place of reasonableness where -- -- land in this country so that you have adequate checks adequate.
The knowledge and who's buying this some kind of ability to have -- red flags go up what a guy goes out over the course of the few weeks is start buying armor in various weapons at different stores incidentally.
Do you think a little red DO something with class people would respond to that.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- Governor Romney -- just steps taken on its.
President has very been very specific about this or that -- -- allegedly.
