Dennis Prager
0:03
if you had to identify a single
0:07
threat to the future of our country above all the others
0:11
what would it be and then others commented as well when the time comes no
0:16
its not Obama it's not
0:19
if if if God forbid President Obama came down with sickness
0:23
nothing would change nothing I believe the greatest threat facing america I
0:28
believe this my entire adult life
0:30
is that we have not passed on what it means to be American to this generation
0:35
you cannot
0:38
lot on me let me make this this is not a a sweep along
0:43
this is meant literally a a society
0:47
does not survive if it does not have a reason
0:50
to survive that's true for individuals
0:53
where there is a while you're there is a house I hate to tell you who said it
0:57
Meacher
0:57
but nevertheless it remains true we have lost the wine the greatest generation
1:03
did not teach
1:05
my generation what americanism
1:08
is its not its fault it wasn't talked
1:12
this goes back 100 years to John Dewey to the importation of European
1:17
professors
1:18
to our universities to a whole host of issues
1:21
the average American who deeply loves this country and even has conservative
1:26
values
1:26
cannot articulate what those values or
1:30
it is no one's fault but that is the greatest threat
1:33
when we understand this american Trinity in God We Trust Liberty eap were bassoon
1:39
that is uniquely American it is not European the French preferred for
1:43
attorney today and we build a
1:45
I'm eagerly takes equality we don't is explain my talk
1:50
we believe in equality your birthday money quality your result
1:53
when it is understood what America stands for when it is understood
1:58
that there is a moral dimension to a smaller government
2:03
it is not an economic question it is a moral question
2:06
we give phar-mor charity per capita than Europeans do
2:11
why are we born better no the bigger the government
2:15
the worse the Citizen they are preoccupied in Europe
2:19
with how much time all we will be vacation
2:23
when will they retire these are shellfish questions these are not
2:27
altruistic questions
2:29
show the goodness that america created is jeopardized by are not knowing what
2:35
we stand for
2:36
that's our greatest threat we are our problem the
2:40
yessir I i just want to add a word here
2:44
there will always be a sliver of Americans like Governor Palin's son
2:48
who wielded list and no in their got because at their home life
2:52
or because they're just special that they know that we have to defend freedom
2:58
but the very fact that the united states of america is about to confirm
3:02
to the US Supreme Court a woman who bandit the military from her campus
3:07
gives you an idea up how deep this problem is
3:11
that that is it not disqualifying to democrats
3:15
to democrats that that is not disqualifying
3:18
is a moment of darkness in American history
3:21
I would
3:25
obviously I'm completely in agreement with the governor and my colleague
3:29
I would just at that height I have never said this so I have good
3:34
credentials to say this now Chris up it's common for commentators to say
3:38
every collection
3:40
this is the most important election in American history or in our time
3:44
I never said that with except with regard to one
3:47
with regard to out Bush to
3:51
term to because if we had let if we had fled
3:55
iraq up be consequences in the world
3:58
through the ascendance above evil are were
4:01
were too frightening to imagine so are you
4:05
only said this once before it was a presidential election this is not a
4:08
presidential election
4:10
and is the most important in modern American history this november
4:14
this this is this november
4:17
is a referendum on what we want America to be
4:21
it is nothing short of that and there was one party that stands for america's
4:26
values
4:26
thats and it has nothing to do with patriotism and I'm not attacking
4:30
patriotic fervor love America
4:32
it has nothing to do with that you can love America
4:36
and be awful American it is you can beat you could love your children and be an
4:41
awful parent
4:42
okay I these things have to be spelled out to the left because
4:46
date they like to distort everything that we say
4:49
so the issue was not are you a wonderful wonderful person
4:52
or love America the issue is you have different values
4:56
that America was founded up and this is a referendum
5:00
this november that is why you must work your tails off as we are working our
5:04
tails off
5:05
if we do not change both houses
5:09
we lose that is how important it is let me
5:14
close this portion of our program by calling on each of our speakers in the
5:18
same order as they were introduced to begin
5:21
beginning with Dennis Prager Dennis okay
5:29
folks Abraham Lincoln said that the United States is the last best hope for
5:34
for the for Earth that's the way he put it or we will often say
5:37
for mankind up it will not be the last best hope for mankind
5:43
if it becomes like western europe nobody has ever said Norway is the last best
5:48
hope for mankind
5:49
is that fair to say this is I'm and I know will be attacked is a time
5:53
Norwegian because anything that we say is race-based
5:56
so with with the risk of being considered anti Scandinavian in my
6:02
essence
6:02
may I say that nobody says Sweden Norway or Denmark
6:07
I is the last best hope of mankind nor have they ever
6:10
that they said that since 1603 about friends
6:13
and so it is only been said about the United States
6:18
this is this is the force for good on this earth
6:21
it is not peace activists
6:24
that liberated auschwitz its military people who will
6:28
who liberated auschwitz the last
6:35
the left has everything wrong everything wrong
6:39
and that is what this battle is about me to her role at battle but we have to win
6:44
we have to do with based on the knowledge up what we are and what we
6:48
have to retain
6:49
this being the last best hope for mankind do we want to be
6:53
the leftist don't wanna be the president was asked do you believe in American
6:56
exceptionalism you know what is it sure wasn't sure many have you know it
6:59
he said I believe in American exceptionalism the way a Brit believes
7:02
in British exceptionalism
7:04
and the way in which a Greek believes in Greek exceptionalism but creeks don't
7:08
believe in Greek exceptionalism
7:10
they don't except in exceptional ability to Germany to bail them out of their
7:14
problems
7:15
that's on except that's exceptional I must admit but nobody
7:20
you realize what that answer means it means we are not
7:23
exceptional that's what this battle is about
7:27
is this a great a human experiment orchestrated
7:31
and finally do we trust the United States to
7:35
increase good on earth or the united nations to increase good
7:39
on earth the left believes that the UN is a greater force for good in the
7:44
United States
7:45
the United Nations just elected Iran to the Commission on the Status of Women
7:50
do you know what this was the first time in 28 years a broadcasting
7:56
I could not think of an absurd analogy because you can't
7:59
out absurd what happened at the UN
8:02
their to elect iraq I can only imagine maybe they will
8:08
maybe the only thing I could imagine the Iranian delegate
8:11
to the UN Commission on the Status of Women speaking about
8:15
is a new collar a fail that Iran
8:19
will be inaugurating and that will be and upgrading the status of a running in
8:23
women
8:24
we are not only allowing black veils but gray
8:27
and blue as well I meet this is a country that tortures women who run away
8:33
from their homes because they don't wanna marry
8:35
demand that their parents set them up with at the age of eleven
8:38
and they are on the status the Commission on women
8:41
who is the greater good on earth the US or the UN
8:45
I hope this invigorates you for the greatest fight
8:48
in our history thank you the
