down
would you be one two three
so
welcome over the uncertainties
the live two thousand eleven i michael shorthand for jake r_u_ are
in for a good show we're gonna be talking
you know it's ironic that is we're gonna be talking about two americas i hate now
to take my cap
for the former senator for
north carolina john edwards but he was on point when he talked about to
america's and we're seeing it laid bare right now in the u_s_ congress were
sitting in the rhetoric that comes out of washington
we're seeing the disparity with between
uh... that the people that believe that the rich should be protected and the
people that believe
that the poor and those who are entitled to to en route over their heads
and some medical care
and some food
mood and yes you know what if some people slip through the cracks because
they are taking advantage of the system so be it
uh... but when you start making cuts that are benefiting billionaires and
millionaires in this country at the expense of those people who are entitled
to what america's promises then you lose me
and then you lose a lot of americans before so you don't lose the progress of
caucus the people that you do lose
our senators like orrin hatch buddy dinosaur you know dinosaurs i guess roam
throughout utah and
and the west
uh... and it turns out that one of them is still alive in nutan that is senator
orrin hatch so i think is trying to align himself back with the sort of
popular belief the republicans are to divide the rich
and the poor because he saw as his colleague robert bennett was challenged
last time by michael ian a primary
lost that primary
and then of course we went on to be the senator there are what we can call now a
tea party senator from utah was listened to senator hatch today and listen
carefully
as he draws the distinction between
poor and rich america
and how it everybody's got to do their part and by the way i'm not saying that
everybody is not do their part here
but singling out the poor
at a time of recession at a time when getting a job is so difficult at a time
with putting on
me on your table is so difficult
at a time when people are spending all their day with two three sometimes four
jobs trying
fifty to three and
or mallet at home
it is uh... it's deplorable that someone who was so out of touch with the way
that america worked on a daily basis
i can sit in the united states center
senate and say this this is quote number to lucas
i preferred shares roster
by cutting taxes and giving the small businesses services the opportunities
that money our people and the people working and get more people paying taxes
and i think it's abysmal at the bottom fifty one percent three months and
contractions twenty three million from yet
refundable tax credits government reform working system i have to pay which is a
security plans
licenses
we have got a good with right here
we've got to start working together is democrats and republicans in the best
interests of the american people and that is reforming this awful tax code
taxes dot
river
taking care of the poor
of sorts that some skins game
except the route before
anne in fairness to his message was still garbled but it was hard to follow
but what we were able to clean is that he is singling out the poorest americans
for not paying enough tax
for not doing enough first trying to stay off of the payroll so they don't
have to pay social security tax and the like and that's what i was able to glean
from that
uh... maybe i'm wrong i can give it fifth or sixth listen but all i can see
is a senator who was
out of touch with the people he is meant to lead uh... orrin hatch is talking
about reforming the tax code and there is a time in a place for that
uh... and perhaps you know i think that the way that we pay taxes in this
country's arcane not because of the tax let's listen that bit you know god bless
the rich they're paying less taxes now than they ever have certainly since the
fifties
thank god ronald reagan is in office anymore because they'd be paying so much
more in taxes but at least we have brocco bomb in there to keep the tax of
the rich down because it is so good to be rich in america right now that you
don't have to pay as many taxes and if you own a hedge fund my god that's the
best because you can defer those taxes
and you can call those taxes capital gains
aids and only pay fifteen percent on 'em
instead of the walking thirty five percent of the rich have to pay uh... it
does seem
uh... skewed that they did at the bottom fifty one percent of americans
don't have to pay taxes and i don't need to know that that's true but uh... if
you want
senator hatch to join the bottom fifty one percent of of americans you wanna
give up your to your paycheck you want to give it up so you don't have to pay
taxes i'm sure they're having a fun time orrin hatch i'm sure it's great to be
and the bottom fifty one percent of money earners in this country
uh... and so that the at the idea that a u_s_ senator could view things in such
as
skewed way
uh... a if his argument is about changing the tax code there is a time to
have that conversation
if he wants to lead that conversation all the power to him though he doesn't
have very much because he's in the minority
but will get to that later
uh... the the the whole idea that orrin hatch can sit there and talk about the
poor having to put some skin in the game the poor as
out of one side is now the same that this kid on the day
in that he wants to take from the poor
social security
medicare medicaid from the poor and we'll get to that in a little bit as
well
this is what i was talking about the top of the show i guess it's still the top
of the show virtually but at the very very top of the show when i was talking
about to america's there is a whole
i would say chasm in america right now of people who look at that
the united states as the poor and the reaction in titled and the working class
well
the working class if they can't get jobs right now and be when they do work there
so taxed
uh... wet when it comes to
uh... at the cost of living adjustments not being raised for social security
recipients
uh... when medicaid and medicare benefits are cut
uh... when those though those are like taxes
you could call them entitlements but when you cut them it's like taxing
somebody who can afford it
if you can't afford health care
uh... because the dubbed the insurance companies have control of congress that
he can afford health care because the pharmaceutical companies have control of
your senator and your representative
uh... then that is like a tax even though you're not writing a check to the
government and he's in the bottom fifty one percent of americans are taxed
and again i'm repeating what the senator saying i don't know that for a fact i
don't know those numbers are fact
but if that's the case
they get their taxes and other ways there in the bottom fifty one percent of
america but they don't get healthcare and if you take those things away from
them is like tax in the without having to make them write a check
uh... i was appalled that orrin hatch said this
but i think he does as a favor when the date because what these people are doing
what this debate about raising the debt ceiling
about whether or not we're gonna cut whether or not we're gonna
uh... braised taxes a raise revenue with this whole conversation is showing is
these the to america's showing that there are people in congress
who were there to protect the billionaires to millionaires and their
people in congress like the progressive caucus in the house of representative
which i think it's time again at some power here because they're not going to
bow to the president
and i thought about the republicans anders gonna have to be some middle
ground
one side or the other is gonna need to bow out for them
so this is a good day for progressives of they can stick together if that
caucus can stick together they can wield some power even as a minority in the
house
they can wilson power because both sides need their votes in in what's coming up
here
but in order to do that they're gonna have to say
speak their case
and speak in their case is going up against somebody like orrin hatch who is
talking about
how the poor nita bug out that that that is the last thing for the u_s_ senator
should be talking about in this debate i don't care who you are if you want to
protect the millionaires and billionaires that's fine but to do that
and save the poor nita bug off during the middle of a recession during high
unemployment
uh... during uh... but you know at cutting about conversation about cutting
benefits
then then you're barking up the wrong tree
and orrin hatch is doing everybody a favor by showing that he is i don't
think he's some lawn lone voice out there i think he's echoing the believes
on a lot of people like himself
in east if he's trying to earn his bona fide as their bone of the design
on this intern and and a political way because he's coming up for election next
year and he's afraid of a primary challenge worries you know god forbid
afraid of a democratic challenge in the state of utah then he's denny's doing
himself a disservice anyway because nobody wants to hear no you time
and no american wants to hear
how the poor need to have some skin in the game that just won't fly the poor
have their skin in the game every single day that's why we're having this debate
that's why people go to congress to protect entitlements to them to protect
the safety net for america
uh... that's what this country is about
and orrin hatch just doesn't seem that orrin hatch is
so so damn out of touch with the way america works i don't know the last time
he went out and and he spoke to anybody working american i don't know who
uh... the last person that he bought veer off of lawyers who wouldn't buy
beer in utah but uh... what's it would he have the apart uh... off of in in
utah
uh... i don't you know i don't understand how he could have
conversations with average
working-class
patriotic you know republican poor americans
uh... in utah
uh... and not uh... and not come away from it say no i should not single out
the poor is the reason the word
in the middle of this
ice should not make this a call to arms to the poor to come out
and and
and put theirs
skin in the game as orrin hatch says it's it's appalling but again i think
when you see these things
uh... you know it the more it it's like the more we heard of surveillance
when when she was a vice presidential candidate
uh... yes the more you heard people over and cheer for her but the more you knew
about the less likely it became that she was going to be the vice president so
i think when you hear these things
these uh... these shocking
remarks by a u_s_ senator veteran u_s_ senator it's it's uh... it's only
helpful
when we come back speaking of sarah pale and we are going to be joined and uh...
in the next segment by michael solomon michael wrote a book which he did as he
went through the thousands i think twelve go over twenty thousand emails
of this error palance and when she was governor that were of alaska that were
recently released
and he was able to call from them and i think this is
brilliant and fantastic
uh... bits and pieces each of them and he made a book of poetry
written
by cerebellum but sort of compiled uh... by michael solomon after that we'll talk
a little bit more about debt ceilings a little bit more about out of touch
republicans
and we've been desert uh... the campaign trail
just a bit i'm michael schorr
young turks
starts in the long break it was obviously i wanna talk about the serial
mitigating and it is great
anticipating have it takes a lot that began right
we had a little bit entrance but it's okay we're back and it's my birthday
milligram a piece of paper in front of us but no days no it's the prints the
print out so different from our first someone who's an early birthday we
lighten up
no apparently not you know
now you know what l actually agree with jr really start
our late in the beginning i was irritated with that it's not your fault
interview
all
habit
heating
marion barry is take an interesting look at that constituted okay
at one point in and
notarized you write hackett package for twenty minutes i still think that if
calistoga stuff you guys can't see it but it is the worst didn't write a on
the planet but i love it if the president
on that subject that the blood because you can't open so
you never get a little bit of have are excellent english pretty says yes
you have the same
you okay so you can see hahahaha her what can we get grumpy jr and this is an
awful lot of there are three i went up
added
anywhere a
and here at the end initiative
dot headed it's the
it are
business extremely sleepy factory thing and minivan anti overnight that artists
out there
here's your uh... of let candidate as he doesn't like it only have a tablespoon
of honey every itself
he doesn't get picked
which carries them out
steve voted
terrible job writing heated having tell you guys probably can't see it sorry
uh... has a right now they can and also has he has a number of kids stay he
should be good at this at this
not
are and loving you guys are so sweet i can't wait said at dickinson st clair
but now we talk about abortion
pacific and our ackerman affidavit we're gonna get how do you know birth na
are at the house is that the states and stories
uh... all higher knows our house has just passed a bill known as house bill
one twenty five
and what this bill would do with basically
make abortion over legal as soon as a doctor
uh... can
here are heartbeat for the fees
and a heartbeat basically is noticeable at five-and-a-half weeks of pregnancy
now don this will get rid of close to a hundred percent of abortion eighty five
to ninety percent of abortions in a lot all i know would be illegal under this
legislation if it passes ok now here's the thing uh... right now the senate in
ohio is dominated by republicans so it's likely to pass but if it does pass is
i'm going to be disastrous for the state are all higher and the taxpayers there
because it will be challenged by at people who
are uh... supporters of abortion and the right to choose
so
yet but it's uh... it's one of these you know of one of these extreme bills
it's basically the the people in the in the probe blitz life movement
of the people that think that life begins at conception
and this is basically saying life
slightly after conception because that's basically what you can hear
art
and uh... it's uh... it is
definitely a progressive law
and again i think it's gonna be challenge constitutionally and uh...
blue-eyed i would guess that john casick's consignment
and and at that if that uh... republican house
approved
john casick will sign it but it will be challenged and that annual instance
unconstitutional
yet you know roe v_ wade says that uh... an abortion is legal uh... as long as
the fetus is not viable uh... outside the womb
right okay so uh... in this case that five-and-a-half weeks
there's no way that peace would be able to survive outside the womb sell a
circuit court will hold this up as the grand canyon and kansas and as they do
in other states
uh... it's and at and out of the beholder they've already right
alright at bristol pale and is continuing her campaign on her pretty
needing stalling okay she have first-hand interview
out where she talked about politician
e unwillingly had sex basically how'd she do say she was date *** but she
said her virginity was stolen from her
out while she was shot use drop exactly
they give returns to drink
she drop
change yeah
not kelso lied expected from michael chat g
well on that
she had a myriad of u_s_ just talking to barbara walters
and she continues this um...
they basically what huge allies about how she lost her virginity and why she
became pregnant let's watch the video
and talk about tonight in last year's budget eastern ventura campaign cash
listened and you do have too much and bethany lifestyle no virginity do not
consent to
having to process it
hi and not feeling happy reprinting
out with that i guess is that analogy of losing her virginity aane
affect called losing your virginity asking if you are today
modern muhammed
frankfurt frankness that happen
is going to send that to have about his seventeen
packed on
must have been talking to you kept on having sex with him
kickboxing
i was actually i was seventeen a m
ya i wasn't that she has ended in and out in we did at that one night and then
our just figured you know i've i did it once i guess it's okay to do it again
today very broken my morrow co
as i think that a good jobs out there and i was a great great the way that you
re-ask the question was fantastic
that and ever stop him from that
conversely a horrible job with it
carribean history i mean she almost in ways that her mother did with the katie
couric in orbit what was that
that's why i use that analogy moving average aideed because you're losing a
division when it's not even meet and then she's like life is to do it very
broken my moral code but that's out there for the bird
unbelievable and
there is a very serious aspect of this story as well because you don't go on
this media tirade about how your virginity was stolen from you you didn't
want to lose your virginity
you know in her but she talks about how i should watch the rigidity at camp so i
guess they had sex in a tent or something that can happen
right and then she wished she wakes up and um... she says that she and even
realize we just happen that's date-*** you're accusing him of date-*** well
she sang i mean she said in so many worship that i'm not accusing the
systematic isn't a trade for anything with that
not remembering
you know she's saying that she didn't remember it seems like she
remembers i mean it doesn't seem like she she's she woke up andrea reported
the authorities apparently they've been decided it was so that they would
continue doing frank
and patriot with

let's watch and then we'll discuss it
ones and
for the first time actually like that uh... biomol
that moment on everything
blinded own home with a big accomplishment for construction worker i

the campaign duplicative any beer had to go
and one india i thirty
silver is dislike my favorite car and jokers signed up to have the rebate
deposited directly into his chief bank account
but when you fire ants rebate arrived there was a problem
chase had close to the count because of overdrawn checks in the past
the bank deducted six hundred dollars to cover what he owed them and mailed him a
cashier's check for the difference
eight thousand four hundred sixty three dollars and twenty one cent
when ngo contained herein to catch the fact
pat buchanan
ranch near him home
clinton-gore and now
the check out his name and address right on it and with issued by j p morgan
chase
but the customer banker who handles large checked at the auburn branch with
immediately suspicious
um... there's means and that's what i did for a living
in asking where i got check from eluded me up and down likely just buy a house
alarm
you know it's like she didn't believe
that the baker says the checked looked fake
so she took it along with and jokers driver's license and credit card
and called bank support
injustices after about fifteen minutes he got impatient and punch a keyword
leaving
to do an important aaron but on that back
donors clones and joke is that he called customer service and with advice to go
back the next day again is money
but when he arrived it wasn't his money that was waiting for it
because please visit you know
this guy has a frozen intact
aldrin police arrested in joke and for forgery
a felony crime
has a cycle and make a mistake
making a big mistake
no cos ill you know
about work tomorrow
you know i can afford it from this work and joke it was taken to jail on
thursday june twenty fourth
annex state chase realized its mistake
so they called and left arbonne police avoids message but no one hurt it
angelica stayed in jail for the entire weekend
finally on monday he was released
and so stressed out to strike fear old school
you know i love mcdougal
and japanese car was towed from the bank parking lot and his check
feed as evidence
and my car that's all
comin option got auctioned off mark roberts hold
because you didn't have the money to get an outside and have minded about
a lot of jobs well
after all of that angelica says he never heard a word from chase they haven't
even sent me a letter apologize it's been a year we've been trying to contact
the seller
ways it is fail in that story i'm on a close but she's and i'd love that you
just said that because i have such a thing and at
i've been looking to be fair to myself i've been looking for a community bank
or credit union you put my money in for a while not comparing
you know all the different
benefits and rates and things like that
but she's is just its
their own they're robbing people they're they're robbing the american people
they're doing this and this is a i'd in my opinion is a clear case of racism
wire the questioning the status check
yet with the but it's not anybody's june seven not insult your opinion motive in
your opinion this is a clear case of racism this was somebody
who saw a black man walk into the back with a check
that seemed too high for his balanced uh... is uh... average balance uh...
was shocked that he had bought a house in the neighborhood mean
it's it is racism missus and missus modern-day racism is with racism looks
like uh... you know
again your spectrum remember that it's important that the stories are shown and
told the news is covering it because there was a time in the not-too-distant
past with these stores would warrant the news story demanded to know that is
racial progress to that we can show the story so many people and and and get
people really upset about it as well so i mean i think there is there's progress
when we see these things publicized but it is it's offensive to think about and
it makes you upset if you can have a dollar chase
not because you feel your money's a you know it at that place but because you've
that people work at this place and that they haven't done anything any year them
responded and reacted his men went to jail for five days rasmin there
should've been they should come down to the jail hasn't happened please what
leaving a voicemail yat first of all that is just leaving a voicemail and
leaving at that just shows you that first nothing really i think they made a
mistake and they just don't care
okay if if you're not an innocent man was sitting in jail
you would go out of your way to make sure you bristled when you talk to a
live person you don't need the voicemail and then you just ignore it
and on top of that the situation occurred aguirre go he lost his car he
lost his job
okay he
e spent time in jail what has changed i'm too
and make the situation better absolutely nothing is happening here go he still
does not you know it is not as cornerback
yeah so affable it's amazing to me
that in had to come to the point
when attorney or west someone uh... leak the story to the media
for the media to get on chase to chase refuse to actually did consider doing
something
and it's so far as far as we know change hasn't done anything
itself
nothing in there that that's what we did this they're taken under advisement
patrice person says
will be reaching out to the customer we received a letter and are reviewing the
situation
that that's not good enough to spend five days and yesterday i know it's a
way there's no situation to review the should be no delivery this is the story
and and trees just decided that it immediately
and they have to pay huge reparations units
it's terrible
jerry comfortable sharing the story of that
chase teller that you have to do it
of a a rel of republicans
when i heard the story was it was a situation where i'd go into the chase
every month
now have a transaction
katmai from one of compliments and in the whole thing
and how do it every month it's basically because the online situation didn't work
because of how much doesn't work or are you still have enough control recovers
uh... slightly less level of control
sudu in person
and is in a nicer
very nice part neighborhood and i was haven't worked for sakhalin and out due
to their summer you do it
so that in their i sent it to do the the transaction is that ok so if if we do
this uh...
this cash that's if it doesn't work
and it doesn't go through them
i can do it more market do you have to go to the next up is before she sliced
my car
and other welcome news that what you say me too
an insult instead of one would only talk about
and that i'd like to play dumb and turned it into contagion said maybe see
what they're saying
so so why would they go through was the symbol of your system justice invented
scanned my card naga mallik scared again that is this going to get you to be for
double the amount
stronghold on and on to say it doesn't work here
on this list is the link it
she still think no black i'm just telling you don't have the money and
time but you don't yeah then
unit for the next one to try and get to work again
who would do over again i didn't want to really get into it that much so
afterwards that i think i'm i'll let legal or moral came back to again few
misleading the composition
and she's oblivious to it just it was the first thought the came to mind she's
right
quartz
so i left and i i wanted to that contact them
cause a problem because i'm a little bit like
i've got to the point when i was younger you you'll think was and i can do about
it
them like seventeen eighty years old
then thinking when i can do about it in just a kid whenever at this point i've
almost got loaded
was always tried to avoid
you know what the first there was it was
you understand first or how important customer
you know do tuesday like in just beijing almost on that
you should value
the first of more than anybody else
things can change you can talk to you kiki working sprayberry's about the
staff this type of thing he just let me off of the virus you've no idea why
poets that that added and do it speaker that politeness
next time
our like i'd like you have the arts i think that it is important because it
when he gets upset that this the the admissions
i don't like it because he's like sticking he's sticking up for the
average showing at the hour's important writer enough
and it's something i mean so and i can't
but they're very altitude this gives light though disability sheffield
segment of the if you'd like to the fact that
major racial
stories don't happen very often there
but but racism in america for people against him in his practice
uh... his is a series of minor inconveniences
constantly
and and i think i think you would agree with that right uh... i mean that's
uh... it's it's not established and that sort of
industrialized racism but it's it's it's that life
presents a series of of inconvenience right that's the thing in him
i'm sure it outcome
but i'm sure that of course from the top chase didn't say okay this particular
felt when you see a black guy come in here makes you wonder if he has enough
money in his *** is just the mindset
and then so special particular neighborhood
and i've got all over
editor different head of the location of the everytime i do it
so it's like
you know first of all the latest second entry fishes
tuesday january twenty eight amto millionaire threat and stop unequal
right here
and accidentally break when we come back the obesity rate in the united states
continues to rise and then tell you what percentage
of people in mississippi are
only fifty percent of the people in the studio
here terribly and out of these but it's a fascinating i will be back with that
and more after the break
