WEBVTT - Rush Limbaugh Nov 19, 2020

0:00:00.040 --> 0:00:02.880
<v Speaker 1>Well, today we have distressing news from south of the border.

0:00:03.080 --> 0:00:08.880
<v Speaker 1>Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador is asking for compassion

0:00:09.000 --> 0:00:12.119
<v Speaker 1>and understanding. Had to make a very tough decision because

0:00:12.160 --> 0:00:16.119
<v Speaker 1>of heavy rains. Now, this grueling decision was where to

0:00:16.120 --> 0:00:18.920
<v Speaker 1>open the floodgates. If he opened them in one direction,

0:00:18.960 --> 0:00:22.360
<v Speaker 1>the city of Via Hermosa would be inundated. If he

0:00:22.400 --> 0:00:27.440
<v Speaker 1>opened them in another direction, indigenous people, poverty stricken Indigenous

0:00:27.520 --> 0:00:30.040
<v Speaker 1>Mexicans would be flooded. Now, this should have been an

0:00:30.040 --> 0:00:34.239
<v Speaker 1>easy choice for el President Obdor. He campaigned with the

0:00:34.240 --> 0:00:38.400
<v Speaker 1>slogan the poor come first, but liberal politicians everywhere have

0:00:38.520 --> 0:00:42.919
<v Speaker 1>one thing in common. Slogans come easy and talk is cheap. Therefore,

0:00:43.080 --> 0:00:48.360
<v Speaker 1>President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador opened the floodgates on the poor.

0:00:49.040 --> 0:00:53.040
<v Speaker 1>The poverty stricken Indigenous people were flooded, so the rich

0:00:53.240 --> 0:00:57.760
<v Speaker 1>city dwellers in via Hermosa would be spared. President Obrador

0:00:57.960 --> 0:01:00.880
<v Speaker 1>says that opening the floodgates and the poor Indigenous people

0:01:01.000 --> 0:01:04.720
<v Speaker 1>hurt him a lot, but that it had to be done. Now,

0:01:04.720 --> 0:01:07.319
<v Speaker 1>we don't know how many Indigenous people lost the few

0:01:07.360 --> 0:01:10.480
<v Speaker 1>possessions that they had. We don't know if any lives

0:01:10.520 --> 0:01:14.000
<v Speaker 1>were lost because the drive by media reports don't bother

0:01:14.080 --> 0:01:17.600
<v Speaker 1>to mention what happened to the poor Indigenous people of Makeo,

0:01:18.120 --> 0:01:21.400
<v Speaker 1>because their lives apparently don't matter. But we do know

0:01:21.600 --> 0:01:25.559
<v Speaker 1>that President Door is hurting, and we're supposed to feel

0:01:25.920 --> 0:01:33.760
<v Speaker 1>compassion and sorrow for him. H
