- 0:06Speaker 1: at a time. Abdul El-Sayed, Democratic candidate for the U.S.
- 0:11Speaker 1: Senate in Michigan, recently compared himself to John F. Kennedy.
- 0:16Speaker 1: El-Sayed said he was facing the same kind of religious
- 0:20Speaker 1: bigotry that JFK faced as a Catholic running for president
- 0:24Speaker 1: in 1960. No, no, no, no, no. The situations are
- 0:32Speaker 1: not analogous. When you go to a Catholic church, you
- 0:36Speaker 1: see two flags on or flanking the altar. The Vatican
- 0:40Speaker 1: flag and Old Glory, the stars and stripes, the star-spangled banner.
- 0:46Speaker 1: Enter a Catholic school and you'll see the same two
- 0:49Speaker 1: flags in the lobby and probably an American flag in
- 0:52Speaker 1: every classroom. Catholics are some of the most patriotic Americans.
- 0:58Speaker 1: From the founding through the middle of the 20th century,
- 1:02Speaker 1: Catholics faced fierce religious prejudice in Protestant-majority America. Yet Catholics
- 1:08Speaker 1: always have passionately loved America and sought to assimilate. When
- 1:13Speaker 1: things got ugly in Europe, America was where Catholics could
- 1:17Speaker 1: go for freedom of religion. JFK came out of the
- 1:21Speaker 1: Irish Catholic tradition in America Whatever his flaws, he was
- 1:26Speaker 1: a man of the West, a man who believed in
- 1:30Speaker 1: Western civilization based on natural law and 4,000 years of
- 1:34Speaker 1: Judeo-Christian teaching. He was a joyful super patriot who almost
- 1:40Speaker 1: lost his life serving his country in World War II
- 1:43Speaker 1: and did lose his life in service to his nation
- 1:47Speaker 1: as president. El-Sayed is none of those things. It reminds
- 1:52Speaker 1: me of perhaps the most remembered exchange of the 1988
- 1:56Speaker 1: presidential campaign. It was in a debate between the vice
- 2:00Speaker 1: presidential candidates, Democrat Lloyd Benson, a senator from Texas, and
- 2:05Speaker 1: Republican Dan Quayle, a senator from Indiana. Quayle was 41,
- 2:10Speaker 1: young for a politician. One of the issues in the
- 2:13Speaker 1: campaign was whether Quayle was too inexperienced to assume the
- 2:18Speaker 1: presidency should circumstances demanded of him. Here was the exchange
- 2:23Speaker 1: with Quayle speaking first.
- 2:25Speaker 2: I have far more experience than many others that sought
- 2:32Speaker 2: the office of vice president of this country. I have
- 2:35Speaker 2: as much experience in the Congress as Jack Kennedy did
- 2:38Speaker 2: when he sought the presidency. I will be prepared to
- 2:43Speaker 2: deal with the people in the Bush administration if that
- 2:47Speaker 2: unfortunate event would ever occur.
- 2:49Speaker 3: Senator Benson. Senator, I served with Jack Kennedy. I knew
- 2:56Speaker 3: Jack Kennedy. Jack Kennedy was a friend of mine. Senator,
- 3:01Speaker 3: you're no Jack Kennedy.
- 3:07Speaker 1: That event, by the way, was at the Civic Auditorium
- 3:10Speaker 1: in Omaha. Some said it was a cheap shot by Benson.
- 3:14Speaker 1: Some said Quayle brought it on by comparing himself to JFK.
- 3:18Speaker 1: My point is that We need to channel Benson from
- 3:22Speaker 1: the grave and have him say to El-Sayed, you're no
- 3:25Speaker 1: Jack Kennedy. El-Sayed is not a joyful super patriot. He
- 3:31Speaker 1: is a leading figure of the Marxist-Muslim axis trying to
- 3:34Speaker 1: take over the Democratic Party and then the nation. He
- 3:38Speaker 1: is an angry, hostile enemy of Western civilization based on
- 3:43Speaker 1: natural law and 4,000 years of Judeo-Christian teachings. He's the
- 3:47Speaker 1: kind of guy who denies his family's ties to the
- 3:50Speaker 1: Muslim Brotherhood and refuses to denounce an Islamic terrorist for
- 3:55Speaker 1: driving his car into a school building to kill Jewish children.
- 4:00Speaker 1: El-Sayed made an excuse for the terrorist, saying, hurt people
- 4:04Speaker 1: hurt people. So if you have a grievance, you should
- 4:07Speaker 1: not be condemned for trying to kill innocent children. It's
- 4:11Speaker 1: the West's fault. It's America's fault. Western civilization hurt that man,
- 4:16Speaker 1: so of course he lashed out at Western civilization. I
- 4:20Speaker 1: bring this up because I have no doubt that Denise
- 4:23Speaker 1: Powell in Congress would be a loyal supporter of the
- 4:28Speaker 1: Marxist-Muslim axis. El-Sayed is her kind of guy when it
- 4:32Speaker 1: comes to mutilating children in their private areas. I am
- 4:36Speaker 1: equally certain that Brinker Harding is a man of the West.
- 4:40Speaker 1: who would not support the Marxist-Muslim axis and its radical agenda.
- 4:45Speaker 1: Yet another reason to turn the blue dot red. That's
- 4:50Speaker 1: Check with Chip. I'm Chip Maxwell. Thank you for listening.
