GLENN: I know. It's almost like if you were in a coma for the last year and right before you went into a coma somebody said, hey, a year from now, you won't recognize this country, and you woke up today. You wouldn't recognize it. None of it makes sense. None of it ‑‑ well, it all makes sense, but it only makes sense in one way. We are damn near Mexico in our corruption. The corruption, did you hear about, who's the ‑‑ is it Baucus?
PAT: Yeah.
GLENN: Baucus with the health bill.
PAT: Yeah.
GLENN: He's ‑‑
PAT: And the girlfriend.
GLENN: And the girlfriend, you want to tell that story? I mean, what are we doing? What are we doing? How is it that so many in America can just still be asleep? Baucus has a girlfriend. He's married. He started dating right after they got married, but ‑‑ or no, after he got a divorce, they started dating, but some aides now say that they were dating for a long time prior to. Whatever. Fine. His business, her business, and I don't vote there. So whatever.
PAT: But again it goes to character.
GLENN: It does. It absolutely does.
PAT: It goes to character.
GLENN: It absolutely does.
PAT: Of who's in charge of the country right now.
GLENN: But here is, here's where the character matters again to you. He nominates her for, what is it?
PAT: U.S. attorney post.
GLENN: U.S. attorney. His girlfriend he nominates as the U.S. attorney. I mean, what are we doing?
PAT: I mean, here we are paying all this attention to Tiger Woods' six girlfriends or whatever it is. The guy's a golfer. This man is a U.S. senator rewriting our healthcare system, one sixth of the U.S. economy, and we're not paying any attention to it. That should be all over the news right now.
GLENN: Do you know why it's not? Tiger Woods is a good looking man and he's married to a Swedish supermodel.
PAT: Yeah, yeah.
GLENN: That's it.
PAT: Yeah.
GLENN: And we all say to each other, "Well, of course they're doing that. That's ‑‑ they are all like that." Well, if they are all like that, then they all should be thrown out, every last one of them.
PAT: Yep.
GLENN: I tell you, I'm sensing a paradigm shift, maybe a complete decoupling that is, it is coming. When you see tonight at 5:00, when you see what they are doing with healthcare and how ‑‑ I mean, there's just no way to explain it. When you see where this thing came from, you will be shocked and horrified. And I can predict right now that they will, again, make me, the messenger, into the topic. It shouldn't be me, the messenger. Answer the damn question.
You know, I was so frustrated this weekend seeing stuff about me. I don't really care what you say about me. I've already, I've already come to the place ‑‑ I did before I even started any of this stuff. I sat my family down and I said, look, your dad's going to be wrecked, you know, in history if we make any headway here. I'm going to be the villain in history. And that's fine. Just know the truth. But here's the thing that's just eating me up inside. Nobody even notices that all they're doing is smearing me. Answer the questions! Have the fortitude to show me where I'm wrong! Show me where I'm wrong. I don't care if I'm a rodeo clown. I don't care if I'm a damn ‑‑ I don't care if I'm insane! Did the insane guy say something that was right? How about that? Is what he's saying right? You can call me any name. You can smear me. You can kill me. I don't care. Is it right? Nobody will talk about that. It is, it really is incumbent on you when you hear things that you'll hear on tomorrow's program or, you know, we have to release at 5:00 today. When you hear these things, well, then it's incumbent on you. Whatever, I know, it came from, you know, crazy fat Glenn. I know he's crying all the time; I got it. Answer the question: Is this happening? These people are fantastic at misdirection, fantastic. But there is a decoupling coming. When you see this story on healthcare tonight, you will see, oh, my gosh. John McCain for the first time is on I.
PAT: Yeah, we've got some great audio from him.
GLENN: He's actually growing a spine on this and he's right! And when the American people, when this thing falls apart and global warming falls apart and they do it anyway, should we read the Declaration of Independence? I mean, how many, what more? I mean, are they completely insane? Are they completely decoupled from us?
