WEBVTT - Rush Limbaugh May 25th, 2017

0:00:00.080 --> 0:00:03.360
<v Speaker 1>Well. The University of Maryland selected top student Shoo Ping

0:00:03.640 --> 0:00:07.800
<v Speaker 1>Yang to deliver remarks during last Sunday's commencement ceremony. Her

0:00:07.840 --> 0:00:12.240
<v Speaker 1>speech created an international uproar. She said that people often

0:00:12.280 --> 0:00:15.080
<v Speaker 1>ask why she chose to come to the University of Maryland.

0:00:15.160 --> 0:00:19.680
<v Speaker 1>Her response was fresh air. Miss Yang revealed that in

0:00:19.760 --> 0:00:22.920
<v Speaker 1>her hometown in southwest China, the air was so polluted

0:00:23.280 --> 0:00:26.280
<v Speaker 1>that she had to wear a face mask every day.

0:00:26.440 --> 0:00:29.520
<v Speaker 1>She described her arrival in America as breathing air that

0:00:29.680 --> 0:00:33.040
<v Speaker 1>was so sweet and fresh. She said that she would

0:00:33.080 --> 0:00:36.040
<v Speaker 1>be forever grateful for the fresh air of free speech

0:00:36.080 --> 0:00:38.519
<v Speaker 1>that she found at the university because she grew up

0:00:38.960 --> 0:00:43.000
<v Speaker 1>believing only people in authority could define the truth. The

0:00:43.120 --> 0:00:45.559
<v Speaker 1>right to free speech on college campus, she said, is

0:00:45.560 --> 0:00:48.760
<v Speaker 1>a right worth fighting for. It's amazing she thinks that

0:00:48.880 --> 0:00:52.760
<v Speaker 1>exists there anyway. Her remarks went viral for telling the

0:00:52.800 --> 0:00:55.920
<v Speaker 1>truth about her experiences in American as Yang was vilified.

0:00:56.440 --> 0:01:00.160
<v Speaker 1>Millions on Chinese social media denounced her. Some warned her

0:01:00.280 --> 0:01:03.640
<v Speaker 1>not to come home. She later apologized, saying she hadn't

0:01:03.680 --> 0:01:08.119
<v Speaker 1>intended to demean her own country. That tried comes which

0:01:08.160 --> 0:01:11.880
<v Speaker 1>she loves. Miss Yang revealed more than she perhaps realized.

0:01:12.040 --> 0:01:15.399
<v Speaker 1>Radical environmentalists have convinced American kids in our country is

0:01:15.440 --> 0:01:18.600
<v Speaker 1>wallowing and pollution, but it isn't. And the fresh air

0:01:18.640 --> 0:01:21.479
<v Speaker 1>of free speech that Miss Yang is grateful for it's

0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:25.319
<v Speaker 1>under constant attack from the politically correct left, and yet

0:01:25.400 --> 0:01:33.920
<v Speaker 1>it is worth fighting for as she is doing h
