Attention. You're listening to the Tod Huff Radio Show, America's home for conservative not Bitter talk radio. Be advised. The content of this program has been documented to prevents and even cure liberalism, and listening may cause you to lean to the right. Here's your Conservative but Not Bitter host, Todd Huff. Well, a very good morning to all of you again on the home of

Conservative not Bitter, the Todd Huff Radio Show. This is Chris Dunham filling in for my dear friend Todd Huff, and I hope that as you listen, we will take a walk down memory lane into the history of this great nation. Many of you have been kind in your little emails to me or your comments to me on LinkedIn, which is the only social media platform I think I'm on besides a small YouTube channel that seems to have grown on its

own, whatever little it's going to grow. But the other day, when I was asked to fill in for Todd, I decided that of the three shows he asked me to do, I would spend one dealing with immigration as a legal immigrant. I hope you've had the chance to listen to that. If not, go back into the archives and see if you can find it. Today, we're going to take a different trajectory and look at some of those momentous moments in history. And I'm a motivational speaker. I'm known as

an apologist. I'm known as a trainer. I'm known as a evangelist. I have many different hats I wear. I've written books, etc. Etc. But the thing that I like most is every once in a while to give a little bit of hope to people in these dark, gloomy days where despair seems all around us. It looks like the dust that is settling is not settling around us, but on us, and we are unable to share

it. Shake these cobwebs of misery, so to speak. What was once this great and glorious republic that boasted so many amazing people, that in its very founding, in its infancy, had people who would memorize the entire New England primer in the first grade and do some yeoman things. But now here we are, and as you're listening to me, you're looking at the news,

the broader news that precedes this show, maybe follows this show. The conservative outlets that all cry foul, the liberal outlets that all cry shame, and we are caught in the midst asking ourselves that proverbial question of Francis Schaeffer, How dan shall we live? Where does our hope come from? How

do we move forward? Harvard is ushering in new terminology called volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity, and many corporations are saying how do we live in this BUCA world and creating acronyms that actually are giving more names to the disease than cure for the ailments. So here we are. There are more illnesses being discovered every day, and more people seem to just go online and every little symptom they have, they suddenly discovered they probably have a disease that's

not yet been invented. So into this mayhem, into this madness, we're going to interject a little bit of hope. And this hope stems from the history of this nation, some of its more populous leaders, some of the people you may not even know. One such person who does not get enough recognition in my mind, the greatest orator of all time, Daniel Webster.

I remember some years ago I was asked to come up and speak and conquered Massachusetts and when they went online and saw that I was one of those flag waving gung ho patriots who leaned to the right and had a moral bent and a more a lawgiver and a moral law that I espoused the Judeo Christian identity. They gave me some caution, saying, would you mind addressing the crowd with a little more genteelness, a little more finesse. After all, we

are a social service organization here. So if you can refrain from politics, or religion or relationships, and somehow managed to still talk about the greatness of this unique nation, we would be grateful. And I thought to myself, how far we have come. This is the very cusp of Revere's ride. This is the thread where the militia men stepped out of the church and the shot that was heard around the world began the revolution that ushered in the freedom

that is these here United States of America. So I remember standing in conquered Massachusetts in front of the people and saying, Hey, I'm just a dumb immigrant, but I heard that some of our founding fathers and our great orators came from your neck of the woods. Would you be so inclined as to listen to an immigrant quote one of your founding fathers, almost as if to give me a pass of platitude, you know, like they would. Or

you're an immigrant, maybe you don't understand the language. You don't understand, so we got to lower our standards to accommodate you. They almost applauded when I said, can I quote one of your founding fathers? And then I

went on to say, that's spake, Daniel Webster. If we and our posterity reject religious instruction and authority, violate the principles of eternal ethics, trifle on moral injunction, and recklessly destroy the political constitution that upholds us, no man can say, how sudden the catastrophe that will overwhelm us and bury all

our glory in profound obscurity. As soon as I said that, they erupted because I had covered some ground, I had given them some moods, I had painted a motif, and of course they were also marveling at the fact that an immigrant like myself would not only remember, but able to recite those profound words. When the talk was over, the organizer came to me and he says, why you violated almost every one of my edicts. But you seem to have done it with immunity, And I thought to myself, isn't

that what the First Amendment was designed for. Our immunity is not so that you can say anything that is rude, crude, mean, and nasty. But our immunity granted under that freedom of that First Amendment, was that freedom of speech, the ability to share and to be, ability to articulate, the ability to do something that profoundly stirs you. Later on in the Q and A session, some of them asked, why did someone like me want

to memorize speeches? Wanted to understand American history, why it was important? And I thought to myself, I said, my love for American history did not begin when I came to America and found out it had a history. My love for American history instilled in me by my father, who, when I was in India aspiring to come to America, said son, I want you to learn about America, her history, her heroes, her revolution, her imports, her exports, her wars, What were popular, what was

unpopular, what was done when it was done. I was already studying European history and Indian history as part of course curriculum in India. So I was kind of perturbed and I asked my pop. I said why that was important? He said, well, you aspire to go there and one day you land there, and when you do, I do not want you to be a second class citizen to anybody. And I thought to myself. Unless we go back and understand the tenets and the ideals and we actually teach history that

is not a revisionist, we will never create in our people. And it's populous, a pride that is built on the foundation. The three things that I always believe are important for anybody to have hope is always be proud of where you stand, Always have a support of where you can lean on, and always have an umbrella under which you're covered. So this is the God you look up to who covers you, a family who leans you lean on, that loves you, and a country whose foundation you stand on, that

gives you that gumption and that oaf. So as we look at it, let's look at why we need to study it. Then we look at the revisioning that is going on that is changing the tenets of it. We look at the truth and the lies and the pandering that goes on. Now. One of the finer stories of American history is the story of Thomas Jefferson and John Adams. Both had been president of these yere United States, and one

was the other's vice president. I think they seem to have had some amount of issue during their own presidencies, and as a result, the silent treatment

seems to have and you ensued. At least that's what history says. David Barton from Wall Builders tells the story of how one doctor Benjamin Rush, a Methodist preacher, said he had a vision that God had reconciled both Thomas Jefferson and John Adams together and that they were too important to the history of this nation, and it's founding for them not to partake in each other's dialogue. And so they began writing letters, I think for the next thirteen or fourteen

years, and most of those letters are in the Library of Congress. As true came, as truth does reveal itself to those that believe in it, and who believe that it is unequivocal that truth by nature is exclusive. Both John Adams and Thomas Jefferson died on the same day, fifty years to the date of the signing of the Declaration of Independence on the fourth of July eighteen

twenty six. Both of them passed away. Now one of the stories told around it, and you'll need to do your own research around, but it sounds good. And as one of my late friends used to say, if it's not true, it should be, is that when John Adams died that afternoon at one o'clock, he says, thank God, this nation still has Thomas Jefferson, knowing that Thomas Jefferson had passed away earlier that morning. Now the irony is that on August tewod of eighteen twenty six, Daniel Webster was

asked to eulogize these two giants. So when you look at the sources of online and all that, it basically says Daniel Webster speaks at the momentous occasion of the funeral of John Adams and Thomas Jefferson, both of whom died on the fiftieth anniversary of the Union. Webster goes on to praise both Jefferson and the declaration, and then he offers an analysis of Adams, including a representation

of words that Adams might have spoken of the Congress of the Revolution. The words that Webster spoke were so stirring that one might believe that Adams himself had spoken them. Now, I'll just give you a preamble to this, and when we come back, maybe we'll go into the actual speech of Daniel Webster. I think this is a great time to have hope and go back into the archives to see what stirred the soul of a nation and what words actually

provided people that opportunity to look forward and march. Part of his speech goes this way, Adams and Jefferson are no more. And we are assembled, fellow citizens, the age, the middle, aged, and the young, by the spontaneous impulse of all, under the authority of the municipal government, with the presence of the Chief Magistrate of the Commonwealth and others its official representatives, the university and the learned societies, to bear our part in these manifestations

of respect and gratitude which pervade the whole land. Adams and Jefferson are no more. On our fiftieth anniversary, the great day of National Jubilee, in the very hour of public rejoicing, in the midst of echoing and re echoing voices of thanksgiving, while their own names were on all tongues. They took their flight together to the world of spirits. I love how over and over again he keeps saying Adams and Jefferson are no more, but he invokes God.

He invokes God and his eminent blessing, early given and long continued through their agency. When we come back after the break, we'll unpack some more of this amazing, amazing speech and maybe we can take from it some lessons of how amidst disagreement can come union and how through that union can come a wisdom that can save a republic. Well, welcome back after that break. This is Chris Dunham filling in for Todd Huff on the Home of Conservative Not

Bitter, The Todd Huff Radio Show. We talked a little bit on the previous session about the founding fathers Adams and Jefferson, and kind of ended that

with part of the introduction to the speech given as a memorial. I don't know whether this is as much fun to you as it is to me, but in the early days as an immigrant to this country, when I read some of these speeches, if you go down through history, like Daniel Webster and Thomas Jefferson and go back to some of those early revival speeches of Jonathan Edwards and George Whitfield, and the sermons of sinners in the presence of an

angry God. And these things stirred me because now, as an orator and a speaker, I do rely on some of these things to amp up my own presentations. But I think everybody needs to get fascinated by the word phraseology of some of these giants and luminaries who not only shaped our land but wrote the very edicts and the charters that guide us two hundred plus years later. Here's how Webster continues that, but the concurrence of their death on the anniversary

of Independence has naturally awakened stronger emotions. Both had been president, both had lived to great age, Both were early patriots, and both were distinguished and

ever honored by their immediate agency in the Act of Independence. It cannot but seem striking and extraordinary that these two should live to see the fiftieth year from the date of that act, and they should complete that year, and that then, on the day which had fastening forever their own fame with their country's glory, the heavens should open to receive them both at once as their lives themselves were the gifts of Providence, who is not willing to recognize in their

happy termination as well as in their long continuance, proof that our country and its benefactors are objects off His care. I don't know if that gives you chill bumps or goose bumps or god bumps or whatever you call. As their lives themselves were gifts of Providence who is not willing to recognize in their happy termination as well as in their long continuance, proof that our country and its benefactors are objects of His care. Folks, I truly believe that when we

say one nation under God, we truly are one nation under God. But as you've heard me say repeatedly in my own rally cry or my own trumpets, that maybe we need to stop saying God bless America. This nation has been blessed beyond the wildest imagination of any nation that has ever existed on planet Earth. Maybe it's time for us, collectively, as a citizenry, everybody within the sound of my voice who are hearing these airwaves, to say,

God Save America. He gave us our chance, and maybe we have spit in the face of that blessing. We have turned our back on providence because we thought that prejudicial ideas and attitudes by some will forever link everybody else. Somehow, apparently we cannot be collectively unionized with the benefactors of the past and the good they did. But forever we are only going to be linked by the evil of our ancestors and what they did. How can it be?

That is logically a fallacy. It is an inconclusive argument. If you say that I'm going to forever vilify you and hold you accountable for what your ancestors did to my ancestors, but I'm never going to give you the glory and the goodness. If your ancestors actually made an invention that solved the problem, If your ancestors actually invested in something that created employment, which is one of

the great tragedies of our time. Today, as we try to eradicate history, you can topple a monument, and you can topple a statue because somehow it links itself to your own past and pain. But what about the hospitals those people built? Why don't you go tear them down? In England, for example, the word cecil Rhodes is forever linked with the atrocities committed in the diamond minds of South Africa and the blood diamonds that flowed from there.

But the Rhodes Scholarship in Oxford that gave some of the great luminaries their start, including presidents of the United States, governors of states, here award winning anchors. What about the scholarship? Do these people now rescind it and give it all? And if they did, would they have the same notoriety they now do? So these are some very interesting things. What do you throw out and what do you keep? What do you attach yourself and what do

you subtract? This is important to understand. And so now what we're going to do is start looking at something called truth. Truth by nature is exclusive. Truth cannot be a one ended stick, and if you're thinking about one, don't think too hard. It'll hurt your head, because there's no such thing as a one ended stick. But somehow we seem to have our arguments firmly planting us in mid air. There is no foundation to the rationale.

Anytime you ask somebody three questions that be dives deep into their foundational beliefs, you begin to realize that it is built on an ash heap of feelings, and it has no shred of evidence of concrete foundations upon which they can say this is my bed and I'm going to lie in it. So here's the irony of ironies that we are facing when you look at what Webster said.

Do we truly believe that this is a God ordained nation? Do we truly believe that we are a people who have a moral law that came because of a moral lawgiver? Do we truly believe that the rights we have that was given in the Declaration are inalienable rights, and that that life and liberty and the pursuit of happiness are truly those things that we not only deserve, but

were endowed by a creator. Or are we going to now rescind ourselves to the mumbo jumbo of popular rally crist saying that you know what, evolution has been proven, creation is a bunk and in which case you and I just need to go to the zoo and look at the monkeys and ask ourselves if they are having an existential crisis, saying which meeting did we miss? That we are stuck in this cage and these guys are paying money to throw bananas

at us. The world is topsy turvy, folks, because you can only go so far back in rhetoric before you realize that unless it is anchored in truth, the comparison, the correlation, and all of the things that are built on it is just a serial reason of lies. When you look at the political ruling class right now on both sides of the island, in any part of the country or any part of the world, their simple goal does not seem to be the care of the people. It is to get elected

again. I cannot tell you as a conservative, and many of you who are conservatives probably get the same email and text we get it from people who are now serving their third and fourth term. They say, if you don't save money right if you don't send money right now, my campaign is at risk. And the reason my campaign is at risk is the polls are saying that this state is too close to call. I live in the great state of Texas, where at one time we had a governor that was a Democrat.

Since then we've had a Republican. But what they say is every year it's too close to call because we have this mass migration from other places that are bringing their politics with us, to which I would look at the politicians

and say, how is that my fault? How is it my fault that if I don't send you money, somehow your election becomes too close to call, maybe it is time for you to go, and maybe someone else needs to come in there if you've not been able in eighteen years to solidify and fortify your position and fight for the people to the degree that it is never

too close to call. But that self survival, that whole desire to always promote their own individual identity ahead of the needs of the people is what frustrates people to no end. So one of the things I want us to look at as you look at these things, that I'm giving it to you in a broader perspective and taking you down this journey. What is the starting point? What is the foundation of your belief? What is the definition that begins to shape your ideas as to who you vote for and why you vote.

I understand when you look at it from the conservative point of view or the liberal point of view, we say, hey, just vote up and down conservative down the ticket. It saves our time, and it probably does. But maybe the time has come for some introspection if after forty years of doing this post Ronald Reagan, why are we where we are? If this man was able to win forty nine of the fifty states and coalesce US this raic and Republican revolution, end the Cold War? Why is there even a question

about the fact about taxation? Why is it even a discussion when half the people don't pay taxes and the other half seemingly are the ones that are going to be penalized because this part that doesn't pay taxes saying hey, you're not paying your fair share. These ironies are just that, they're a bunch of lies. And unless you look at it through the lens of truth, it's not about what others are doing. Are you doing your fair share? Are you working? Are you serving? Are you solving? Are you saving?

Are you giving? Are you participating? Are you volunteering? Unless you do that, I don't think we can point a finger at anybody else. When we come back after the break, we will talk a little more about truth and how these lives are replacing it. Hopefully you're having fun as i am. Good luck, God bless see you after the break. Well, hope you're still tracking with me. Welcome back after the break to the Todd Huff

Radio Show, The Home of Conservative not Bitter and True. In the line of what Todd and I talk about often, I just wanted to give you a history lesson, maybe take you down a different path, interject a little bit of hope, ask us to look at issues that we can control. One of the old things on which I train is every day we wake up, there are three things, you know. One is the givens, the

second of the uncontrollables, and the third is the negotiables. The givens maybe the laws of the land, the policies and procedures the government, the municipality you live in, the regulations of your zoning committees, your own professions. The uncontrollable may act of God, a wrath of nature nine to eleven, or whatever, something happens that alters the landscape as we view it. And

the third is the negotiable. And that's what I'm talking about. When I look at the history of this nation, when I look at the historicity of this nation, when I look at the motivation that comes from the history of some of the great pioneers, that's my negotiable, that's my go too,

that's my Francis Scheffer moment, how then shall we live? Shall I look at the heavens above and still believe that God who is the architect, as Ben Franklin said, he who will not allow an empire to rise in his absence, or he who will not allow a bird to fall in the wilderness and his absence, will he allow an empire to rise without his presence? Or some such narrative therein do we truly believe? Folks? I'm an old fashioned gung ho flag waving patriot, and I really do believe that maybe the

time has come to go back to those tent revivals. Maybe we need to go back to the days of Mordecai am and Billy Sunday and say, you know what, We're going to invoke the name of God, and we're going to revive the families of the very foundation of faith. We're going to invoke that there is a truth about marriage. There is a truth about identity. There is a no Sunday identity and Monday identity. There's only one twenty four to seven God given identity. This is the truth that we need to be

clamoring for. This is the hope that will ask us to look at the heavens and say, on that beautiful day in eighteen twenty six, fifty years to the date of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, that God reconcile two of his servants together who had inspired a nation to form? Do we truly believe that? Do we believe the words of the patriot who said, I have only one life to give for my country, and that's a regret.

Do we want to hearken back to Revere's ride? Do we want to look at the magnificent speech of Patrick Henry given in the House of Burgesses in Richmond, Virginia, And he says, gentlemen, cry peace, peace, But there is no peace. The war has already begun. The next gale that sweeps him from the north will bring to our ears the clash of his resid arms. Why stand we hear, idle, What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have for his life so dear? Or peace so

sweet that it be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God. I know not what path others might take, but for me, give me liberty, or give me death. And an entire nation rises and marches forward. Do we have that fortitude, do we have that gumption? Not a rebellion, not a retaliation. If, as Adrian Rogers said, if you just raise a generation based on rights, you'll have a revolution, a counter revolution. But if you raise them based on responsibility,

we may have that revival. And maybe that is the truth. I think that we need so desperately. We need a revival in the land. We need mother and father, husband and wife, and father and daughter, and brother and sister to get on their knees in the morning and say, thank God for this nation. But we say, God, save this nation. Give us our directive, give us our edict o, Holy One, Oh Heavenly One. I founders of this country and the pioneers of this nation

could kneel in prayer and actually defeat the mighty imperial armies of Britain. What can we do in our own communities to get rid of the filth that is occupying our corner, To start arresting the vile and the vulgar that is coming across our airwaves in the evening channels and is actually being portrayed as normalcy. Paul Harvey called this many moons ago, and when he says, you know, this dam that is breaking right now is opening the floodgates of God's wrath

on a nation. Now. I don't want to be diabolical, and I don't want to be a doomsday prophesier, but I do believe that unless we cry back to him and say, God, we ask you, we ask your affairs to be governed, or ask our affairs to be governed by you. It is no joke that in the early days when Congress was first established, that the person who give them the charge as soon as they were sworn in and seated was a clergy member. But today we disagree with who that

clergy should be. All gods are the same gods, and what happens is we are diluting our standards for ourselves. I'll go back to what east Stanley Jones once asked Mahatma Gandhi, that great Indian patriot. When he asked Matma Gandhi that question, Stanley Jones, an evangelist, he said, what does Christianity have to do to be a mainline accepted worldview and not considered a white man's import Because this was in the context of India in the nineteen twenties,

and Gandhi gave him these four statements. He said, live like him, love like him, understand other world views, and don't water down your own. What does live like him mean? Amy Carmichael said, we all profess to be strangers and pilgrims in search of a land we can call our own, and then settle in the most unstranger like fashion, exactly as if we were at home and intended to stay as long as we could. I don't believe Apostolic miracles have died. Apostolic living surely has. Are we Christians in

name only? Are we Easter and Sunday only? Do we just go to church and say our hallelujahs and praise the Lord and tell people I'll pray for them? And then don't rely on the God of the heavens to guide us in our actions and in our mercy. We need to live like him. And second comes the most important thing that I will talk about in my time with you, This word love. What would Jesus do? Would he not love everybody? Folks? We do not understand God's love because we have never

allowed ourselves to be loved by Him completely. As the sinners we are. He loved us, and he saved us while we were still sinners. If that is true, then that unconditional love is impossible for us to have. That's why when C. S. Lewis professed his four great loves, he says, the Philo, which is the brotherly love, is possible in a relationship. The store gay, which is the relational or parental love, is

possible. The Eras, which is the physical love, is possible. But none of them kind of fulfill their fruition unless they are under the guise of Agapi, that unconditional love. So when you look at everything I have carried you through on just today's program, and we now land on truth and this word love that is being tossed around with reckless abandoned by both church and clergy alike. What would Jesus do? Are we not supposed to love everybody?

Love the sinner, hate the sin. But what if the sinner doesn't consider what they are doing sin as is in Holy rit What if they don't consider themselves worthy of repentance because they don't think they've done anything that warrants repentance. Well, if there's no sin, there is no savior. So that argument of what would he do doesn't even enter the picture. We need to be

careful of how we toss this word love around. When we come back, I'll talk about how this love has now led to lies and the pandering, and we can then close out today. Hope you're having fun. I am. We'll see you after the break. Welcome back to Conservative Not Bitter,

The Todd Huff Radio Show. This is your guest host Chris Dunham filling in for my dear friend Todd Hoff. Today we talked about Daniel Webster, a little bit about John Adams and Thomas Jefferson, a little bit of a history, lesson some of the speeches that were given, the words that surrounded those speeches, and maybe I got caught up in a rant of my own doing. Hope you'll forgive me, and hopefully it was interesting and entertaining or at

least kept you motivated and gave you a little hope. But as we talked about truth and the lies that now surround the truth, we left it with the word love. I'm going to go back to that speech, and here's how that speech continues. Adams and Jefferson, I have said, are no more as human beings. Indeed, they are no more. They are no more as in seventeen seventy six bold and fearless advocates of independence, no more as a subsequent periods the head of government, nor more as we have recently

seen them aged and venerable objects of admiration and regard. They are no more. They are dead. But how little is there of the great and good which can die to their country? They yet live and live forever. They live in all that perpetuates the remembrance of men on earth, in the recorded proof of their own great actions, in the offspring of their intellect, in the deep and grave lines of public gratitude, and in the respect and homage

of mankind. They live in their example, and they live emphatically and will live in the influence which their lives and efforts, their principles and opinions now exercise, and will continue to exercise on the affairs of men, not only in their own country, but throughout the civilized world. How would you like that set about you? How would you like that said about your legacy? What is our legacy going to be? What we inherited? We listen to

radio shows on conservatism. We look for ideas that energize the base We scroll through endless reels of little clips from seapack speeches made by truckers saying we are not going to deliver to a city. We look at the rallies and the big rallies and wonder how one person with a small rally could have got that many more votes. And these are our doubts, These are our debates. But what will future generation say about the forty years the biblical generation that we

were at the helm. This is one thing I do to the youth of this nation when I travel around the length and breadth of this country in the world, and I speak to them. First, I said, on behalf of my generation, I want to apologize to you. We were so busy carving out a little place for ourselves, erecting our little fences in suburbia, raising the fences to the degree that the neighbors can pry in, so we could raise our offspring with our own little ideas in our own little fiefdoms.

And then when we sent our children into the world, the world swallowed them up because we prepared them not for the absolute lunacy that existed out there. What we thought was normalcy, and the way we raised the moment they went into the world the school, and the teacher said, is bigotry. What we thought was moral and Christian and the way we raised our children by sending

them to Sunday School. They went out into the world that said all religions are the same, all gods are the same, and there's no difference between the God of the Bible and the devil that's on earth. Our children left confused, an entire generation of people looking at us saying, you didn't give us the whole picture. You were myopic in your teachings. Yes, we

were myopic in our teachings. One plus one will always equal to But now there's a clip I watched the other day when someone said what is one plus one? And one guy answered to and the teacher said wrong. The other guy I said multiculturalism, and some of the teachers said yes. The other guy said one plus one is intersectionality, and the other guy said yes, that's where we are debating basic one plus one. While it may be tongue in cheek and in beb physicious, that is not too far from the truth.

You stop any John Doe kid who is under eighteen today on the street and ask them some poignant questions maybe as simple as what is the capital of this nation? And unless the word has racism or bigotry or prejudice around it, none of them will be able to articulate because they have been sold a bill of goods that anything that stands for something is on the backs of something

wrong. As a result, unless those definitions are couched by this useless stuff that permeates around it, that is why you cannot have a conversation with these people as they scream and shout at you. When I go on to a college campus, people always say, are you afraid. I'm not afraid of the debate of ideas. I'm just afraid that we have let an entire generation down that believes that screaming and screeching and spray painting priceless artifacts in the name

of climate change is the way of the world. Their rebellion is actually so nonsensical that they do not understand that when you deface something that has stood for hundreds of years in a museum, you're not making a statement. You're actually erasing something that was so beautiful and presented as part of God's amazing intellect given to a very select few. How many people can come along and paint a

Mona Lisa. How many people can come along and sculptor David? How many people can paint the Sistine Chapel. We will not have many more of those if we keep going through this place. Not only are there revising history, replacing it with lies, but now they are defacing the very things that have been the anthems of history, that have talked about creativity and beauty. We are in for a very stark surprise. Especially when I stand in front of

this generation and apologize to them. They look at me like I'm some clueless or relic from the past with but they cannot challenge me on anything. None of them have gone really far back to read anything that is of historical value. None of them can answer questions about morals and morality. None of them can answer questions about geography and divisiveness. Everything is about the fact that unless there is a victim, and unless I can paint myself as that victim,

you are part of the problem. So here we are talking about history. I know when we talked about immigration, I gave my perspective as an immigrant. But these are the days where I don't know how many more times I'll get behind the microphone to share my thoughts and articulate my fear. But I truly am grateful that every once in a while Todd gives me this platform,

and he gives me this card blanche to paint the picture of history. I hope those of you are listening are motivated to go back and uncover for yourself in the pages of your own life. Ask yourself some poignant questions, and maybe we'll close this session by the three questions that are asked. Often these questions, of course, come from Bob Townsend, who wrote up the down organization. What am I doing? What would I like to be doing?

How will I know when I get there? The role and identity I presently occupy, the destiny I want to choose, and the benchmark that will give me the difference. Unless we are able to ask these questions at a poignant foundation level, I don't think we'll have much to leave, and I don't think we'll have much to celebrate when we come back. Let me give you two minutes of motivation at the back end of this. Thanks for hanging in

with me. God bless well to close out today. In the last minute and a half we have together I'm going to introduce to you the word that has bothered me more than anything else, and probably more for conservatives than anybody else. The left is always pandered to its base and has pandered without shame. But unfortunately the right is incapable of doing that. Our pandering is almost

is almost shameful. Now I go back to these emails I keep receiving from some of these great people who I've admired and voted for time and again, and they always come with the stark alarm, Oh, this race is too close to call. Will you support me or will you allow the other side to win? I have not allowed the other side to win. The reason the other side is winning is because the side we keep putting up there is

not fighting for us. They're fighting for their own re election lives. And I may not be very popular in saying this, but I think, over and over again, I really do believe that maybe in the business world we have terms limits when you're not effect If it's something you get a chance to do it once, you get a chance to do it twice, and then third time the shareholders and the stockholders make their point and they show you no

mercy. Maybe within Congress. We need to say you have four terms of two years apiece, and if in eight years you cannot get it done, step aside. Thirty years, thirty five years is just a joke and a Senate. Maybe you give them two runs of six years a piece and then twelve. If they can do it, they step aside. Heck, we allow our president only to be there for eight years. I don't know why we allow all these other people incapable of getting a law that he's going to

be able to sign to last forever. I'm a big advocate of term limits, as you can see, and I tell people when they ask me, are you going to run for office, Well, if this is the situation and it's not going to change, I'm not going to run. The only thing I'm going to run for is city limits. So when we come back after tomorrow or next day, we'll talk about something else and hope you'll track with me, Hope you'll stay with me. Good luck, God, Bless God, bless health.
