Reading the Tea Leaves

" Right of the judge frank Kilmeade judge entered a -- generally 66408. Senate passed 7669. Senator Richard Shelby as a Republican from Alabama I was drawn a line in the sand. He and the free market and the constitution are on one side. And the president and the march towards the federal takeover of health care are on the other side he joins us now senator Shelby. It's a pleasure to welcome back to Brian and The Judge."

" Essentially described this debated it seems like Barack Obama is showing how new Wii is that this presidency thing."

" Well I believe he's reading has not said that -- meals but. Who Sunday said I believe the administration. In that's Obama is -- they're reading the tea leaves of American they see the town meeting date CP. Both -- they have seen the polls that show. That most Americans are -- it's -- that health care and they're worried are in fear that something could change. And that I have the same fear they would not be nearly what they have today."

" Connecticut -- anyway it upset me so much in the past when -- for instance a lot to be upset about senator Shelby one of you were. Colleagues on the house side. A conservative Republican congressman from South Carolina by the name of Bob Inglis who is an opponent of the president's health care. As are you for a variety of well grounded constitutional moral legal and economic reasons nevertheless in the course of this town hall meeting said. I think health care is a right. That the government should make sure that everybody gets that right it should force everybody have health insurance what the -- kind of a conservative Republican position is that."

" I don't know greed got an idea but I don't recall old. The situation where else happy anywhere in the constitution do you."

" No no but but that shows you where the debate has gone when when people were supposed to defend the constitution and we expect will do so. I talk like that."

" What we never had that right and that that is not enunciated anywhere in the constitution. And it would it would be a utopia type deal yet but he better ask who's gonna pay for it there's -- room."

" In and that's who we're looking at and we had a great illustration for Barack Obama as he compared the post office to FedEx and UPS -- thought he was helping sell out. With that. Glad I mean how how those Lou illustrated was that and now we have the cash for clunkers program run by the government."

" Which which -- that's. We could -- on the floor of the Senate that's it that's a clunker you itself. The program is -- pundits not you were going back to the post office analogy that's not a good analogy at all. The post office right now that they're asking for a billions of dollars. Of taxpayer money to -- UPS and federal express then their private entities bandit -- for anything better compete in the marketplace. The post -- if -- that'll actually. CNET -- that might be lack about this."
