What we have to do is deal with it when these idividuals are young enough.
if you will, to be saved, not in a religious sense
but not to constitute what this country at times calls their throwaway children.
We seem to be approaching an age of the gross.
We all have this idea that we should move up a little bit from our parents' nation
and each generation should do a little bit better.
Come on, let's cut the ******** enough
Let's get it started, let's start addressing this issue and open it up
Let's take this **** back to the basement
And we can disscuss statements thats made on this tape
