-- -- and the president got artists as well with that attitude why should I bother how -- -- -- -- that atmosphere.

Not -- because that the public.

You -- my wife that I -- on the other night the public as an angry if things were not man enough that we're not mad that we got.

Hit by 2% more in our paychecks starting in January.

We're not angry enough yet to tell Washington that they need to get their act together.

I mean it is unconscionable what is going on.

It in Washington see every single day it should just think they always pull out the firemen they always pull out the police -- always now.
