RUSH IN A HURRY -- 9/11 Was an Act of War, Not a Crime

"I simply turn on the Golden EIB Microphone and share my honest passions and beliefs with people.
And they're free to go elsewhere.
They're free to ignore; they're free to believe; they're free to be entertained, I don't care.
They're free to do whatever they want.
But a lot of people aren't free to smoke cigarettes where they want;
they're not free to drink where they want;
they're not free to eat the kind of food they want to eat;
they're not free to eat trans fats;
they're not free to drive certain places.
Pretty soon we're going to be told what kind of cars we have to drive.
I can't cause that.
I can't restrict anybody's freedom.
We've elected a guy who can, does, and wants to, all under the guise of saving us.
So I appreciate the effort, and I appreciate somewhat losing my temper here.
But don't compare me ever to an authoritarian who thinks so little of people that without him they can barely breathe on their own.
Don't ever do that."

LEARN IT, LOVE IT, LIVE IT!

If one cannot understand Rush's words above, then one does not truly understand FREEDOM!

This made me chuckle right now.

I heard parts of this segment while driving to the store. I didn't hear the part where the caller explained why he opposed the label "swine/pig" flu.
Did my food shopping. Drove home.
Now I read this transcript and realize that I had bought pork chops and bacon, price had nothing to do with the selection. This is not a meat that I ever buy or think about buying.
I hope my spur of the moment purchase has helped the caller's family a bit :)
