That's why got to be -- and so far that we get it he's it really -- -- you wanna congratulate you thank you.

For a landing the role as Jeremy Renner stunt double and he -- College aged film I'm going to college.

I wrote that for the segment that I really did -- -- yeah.

Have you kind of did oh I think well I got the very -- and I'm going back college -- -- -- it actually was Joseph the but.

I think yeah.

He's he's sort of a car -- -- Earlier this Saturday afternoon -- targeted this is casual -- is we're going.

Actually Greg is different than regular -- kind casual -- can.

Hang out of pocket wrapped after the show and -- -- well that's what I call talking about them.

About like emotional personal issues.

That yeah I do -- -- kids for the cleanup -- yeah.

Don't think I should bring out I call my office treehouse.

That movement.

It's actually -- -- treehouse.

-- -- Yeah -- that it on the books yeah.

You get -- giving the prosecution so much I mean yeah it has all been court -- -- Andrea I did on the tiny volume control.

Let's get to the Kelly -- yards.

Proposed army handbook would advise American soldiers not to speak over the Taliban and -- -- woman's right.

Girardi said this is just telling our -- they're there to do a job and they should mind their business beyond that.

Yeah isn't it in the -- that this is applying that Thanksgiving dinner rules to our troops in Afghanistan with the -- given them at least you don't talk about certain things.

Yeah you just don't talk about it like being around them is like something you believe in house and then you've got all the people around date apparently -- -- regulatory.

Like you know when you have that crazy racist uncle -- Thanksgiving dinner you I don't I don't see why -- -- people I eat meat -- Yeah there are certain subjects you don't bring -- -- -- -- this raises an interesting point there is a key difference between Thanksgiving and the Taliban.

Alcohol.

One of the reasons why you can't see any change -- the Taliban -- that they're always sober.

Which makes them miserable people you know you don't need to -- cocaine in their water yes.

Yeah but don't they have yet they have drugs there though they might not mobility only sell it that it -- downloaded to -- every deal with with the -- -- -- -- -- -- Until they get caught that -- all for personal use yes.

I Harrison said part of the region where there is to share our values in fact and to win hearts and minds it's just it just have to be working on doesn't.

Well I don't think that's the point I think the point here that they don't want it to happen at all so if you block it it certainly won't have a chance to happen but we don't know that for certain.

We don't know that it's almost impossible.

For people in each other's company for the amount of years and our troops have been on the ground of that country and not a shared some sort of cultural back and forth and in a very good positive way.

-- -- An optimist but I have a -- and served.

OK and so I understand that when you've got boots on the ground for that long they're gonna be some shared experiences.

And little -- I just hope that that we can kind of rub off the good stuff on each other river they're humans and pick up some stuff they can share with us to.

Hey man can't amen amen amen but -- the flip side of that is when you have boots on the ground in a country along the people start to really really resilient absolutely that -- -- that's.

But it's never 100% of anything that's always a segment of the population that can open that door and I believe the fact and and the but if you block it.

If you tell our troops that you forbid it we'll follow that command.

Right right but Patrick let me get -- telling you said because I think you know you said basically if -- is gonna help keep our soldiers safe and -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- But is the argument that the fact that we need to me like -- -- -- just mean it's time to get out.

Yeah I mean I think that's the problem is that where I like that before I think we're starting to make our troops diplomats and other.

From the the bill in your career you were -- when you said this isn't just about the Taliban.

This is about the people who there where you're supposed to be on our side even though it seems like a lot of the mark.

Well it is that you know I don't feel I thought he had bridge that was a right I got a -- -- not -- -- have -- at the -- That -- this is funny -- happen.

A.

At half and it Patrick sometimes it's like jazz and -- -- -- -- what I don't say.

Right now.

It's definitely -- in -- That's crap is what it.

And -- the Center for Army Lessons Learned was set up in 1985.

It what it does Harris is it rapidly collects analyzes dissemination archives.

Oil TTP and operational records in order to facilitate rapid adaptation initiatives and conduct focus knowledge sharing and transfer that and -- the army.

And enables operationally based decision making immigration an innovation throughout the army and we -- JIM environment.

Right and and all of that.

-- -- -- -- Ellison -- why do you hate the military Greg why do you hate the military why you hate military programs that are set up to make our army better -- Wow you -- he's thinking about it with the national.

Who rock that's the -- another -- the journal -- really need to now a damn I was trying to show us how much you can -- he's not all you need to need to know what the senator you can drill down Harris yeah okay and yeah we got to Sudan news channel you.

And it poses no longer talking the.

I would say hello my secondary purpose but it was -- actually my primary.

Job well done thank you -- masters elementary school replaces Christmas concert with anti bullying program.

-- of the -- when again if you take away Christmas you know technically Christmas for canceling it concert.

They're taking -- -- -- former traditionally having the -- -- the kids to school and I think that they're not gonna.

Have it that way but I didn't even actually replace it has a month later they're gonna do the -- program so we're not like they.

Physically put something in its place for the kids to look like -- you wouldn't really enjoy and thankfully program.

I wouldn't think -- that -- there's another way they destroy an arts and school because more than just a Christmas play at the play every one of my favorite club and rule allows an up.

-- and breezy big reason my fourth grade class and I played Nikki.

But yeah the first black and nick -- all time.

Wow I didn't hear a little bit about now I can -- a little something a bit I think the wig though -- yeah.

I played Rizzo and I didn't under and -- you welcome.

Patrick that it really didn't understand or agree with your argument you said it's about because Jesus was -- historical figure but that has nothing to do with.

What Christmas celebrates.

-- Start celebrating it's celebrating the birth of the son of god.

Well yeah but -- -- the point is is that there there is a historically relevant.

Component to that for non Christians than them so that people who do not calling for it to be Christians -- not are not Christians.

-- odds are gonna burn another head about watching something.

That.

Does that flying straight -- -- a -- yeah and that's but the entire point of Christmas is that Jesus is the son of god not that he was it just a man.

No the point -- Chris is that Jesus the fun of god was born that day right exactly the end result -- -- that's not a guy what Matt Meyer.

And I'm confused I -- yeah that what you're trying to have a -- -- the.

I -- -- I'm not enough fight about it I'm just saying I think it's a little disingenuous to pretend that Christmas is about the birth of the historical figure.

No I am not saying that at all I'm saying for the people that -- there are arguing against this.

As as only your religious.

Thing in I think that's disingenuous -- I know nobody can look at Christmas because of the birth birth abroad but it's a religious holiday.

But it's also something that people can learn from.

It's not it's not imposing any value to me about.

I hear what you're trying to say -- this is something you can learn from.

And he's handsome I mean that's my kind of service of media that.

-- Chirac to make sure ride you can't have a Pilates day -- -- -- Pilates -- Jesus then.

Johnson.

Wanted a couple of -- audio that I just pilot audience or whatever Chris Christie told Barbara Walters he's not 2003 president.

Sure I agree that the way Walters ask the question was fantastic he said there are people who say.

But others say that's -- she journalistic practices then I -- But yeah I.

Nothing filming -- -- big money nobody got bad you know.

He is still -- split -- -- degree that it works brilliantly talented Paris you said of Governor Huckabee want to get decides on something finishes it.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- I'm not -- I don't know.

They never get out of that language that I'm calling it was if he decided he wanted to do something about -- weight when you do it.

You probably I think he's probably does that that the Barbara Walters look I'm finally I am it would get -- -- -- to -- -- -- budget if I had.

I think -- need to do is just -- -- himself as too fat where the two was the number.

And the -- -- with a PH then you get the kids you hypocrite current with the kids because number two like two -- you get the cred with the old school people because you got fat with a PH.

Then you get it up.

The candidates.

-- -- mobile home that it was not effective a way it was and the -- question.

Colorado and I got -- it that it isn't.

I don't know is it not possible that he went to -- on Thursday and we -- wasn't perfect shape and walk up on Friday -- was huge.

Yes that's impossible.

When I was when you think it's impossible it doesn't make it involves an answer I've seen enough I've seen weirder.

Thing and then is that what happened to that certain particular afternoon -- will all have their land along the up and then you turn into -- that I was I definitely have to.
