It is a self reversal from the president pted from barack obama, who voluntarily released more than 6 Million White House visitor records, even as his administration fought successfully in federal court for the right to keep some of that information secret. Host we have got some calls coming in. First, lets go to carol calling from san diego, california on the republican line. What is on your mind, carol . Caller i am sorry, that was not what i was calling about. Host by all means, go right ahead. Caller i think the fact that they are a limiting prescriptions by people who are in real need, like in california, you only get a sevenday prescription, it is absurd. A have to really need have these renewals over and over again. Last year, i was at kaiser, and i was going on vacation, and i had to take a prescription, and low and behold, they cut it in half because of the new restrictions relative to opiates. On vacation and we are on the border country, so there are a lot of Illegal Drugs coming through, i am sure. Getpeople with real need these shortterm prescriptions, and i think it is nuts. Host ok. Gary is coming in from indiana on the democratic line. Good morning, gary. Caller good morning, sir. I would like to tell you, sir, that ill like to welcome you on behalf of everybody. Make a fine addition to the moderator staff, and you are a fine man, and i would like to tell you that, first of all. Host thank you. I appreciate that. Caller first, i have a couple of small issues. Going on in washington, choosing the name redskins for the redskins football team. They have been using it for years and years, and all these crybabies are coming out of the woodwork complaining about it. It is just a nickname. It is not meant to be offensive. It is no big deal. Keep the redskins in washington, keep them the way they are. The only thing they should ownership,the damn but that is my opinion, i guess. But the biggest thing i want to address, look what is going on with trump and russia and all the investigations going on, and who do we have for an option besides that . Would not trust either one of them farther than i can get to the moon on a wheelchair. Lets make one thing clear cut here, guys. You did not go out and vote, and it is blowing up in your face now. That riflexercise ation, we might be under different type of leadership, one that is more suitable. So im going to put something out there real quick. My vote for president , i think suggestion,a good keith olson for president , tom perez for Vice President , i think that would be a good ticket, and i think trump will be a onetime president. I have from five ago, indiana, and you can tweet me, buddy. Host lets go to carry on the independent line. What is on your mind. . Caller ive several things on my mind. Im a veteran. I hurt myself during service, and i got tested for marijuana. I failed for marijuana, so i filled my drug test, and i turned to street drugs. You have all of these places in the valley with marijuana, used for medical purposes. And a lot of states are going and theyre cutting off medication, and it is not fair. You had the one lady saying it is not a disease how can it not be considered a disease when your body has to have it . And it makes you feel real bad. To me, it feels like so much tugging and pulling in Different Directions and controversies over this, you know . Are you there . Xt, we have barbara calling in from of love, massachusetts on the democratic line. Caller a couple of ideas associated with the opiate segment. First of all, sally satel is a fantastic guest, you should have her back but all of your guests are fantastic. We should just have you guys all back, number one to number two, the governor of new jersey used a keyword in his statement, which is the word shame. Shame is psychologically an extremely potent driving force in human life. Get a psychologist on who can explain the role of shame. Number one. Number two, lets have a segment on synthetic opioids, their history, anything fda approved your which he said some of them are 1000 times stronger than heroin, i fell out of my chair. Said there are some people can manage these drugs appropriately under doctors supervision, and they need to have them, and that is great. We have got to be clear about that. I just wonder if any of them are fda approved or not, and why should they be should they have controls they do not already have . Take the shame thing and the unemployment thing and the infrastructure thing that might happen one day, and lets bring back fdrs civilian conservation corps and get all these ablebodiedi people who want to help rebuild thatves into a new have drug addiction, you have the nurses and medical people to supervise while theyre working, but then they can get their dignity back while they get off the drugs. That is my share. Thank you. Thank you. Lets hear from terry calling in from wolverine, michigan, a republican. Good morning. Caller good morning. The lady from kentucky she does not know what she is talking about. Not all veterans use the money for opiates. And withholding a veterans money when they have served their country is ludicrous. What they really need to look at is people that are on welfare that use their money for everything other than what it should be used for, they use it alcohol, they use it for cigarettes, that is not what welfare was designed for. ,eterans who worked very hard they have given him of some of them come of the ultimate sacrifice, and for us to say or for the government to say, well, because we think you are weng a money for dope, then are not going to give you the money that you have put your life on the line for. And as far as fentanyl g oes, fentanyl is a very good cancer drug and is used to manage cancer pain. Drug, are going to use a you are going to find one way to get it, one way or the other, if you really wanted. You do not have to go through your doctor or the legal channels. They need to be more strict about illegal drug use. And, you know, somebody what ll, they might start out using it for pain, but you make a conscious decision to use that drug. Nobody put a drug to your head that says, oh, you are going to be addicted to it, they make their choice to take the first hint of whatever they are addicted to. It is their choice. Not the government nor the people should be paying for it. You want to get off it . It is on your dime. Host lets hear from arlene calling in from cleveland, ohio on the independent line. Hey come arlene hey, arlene. Caller the kind of people you raise in your home will determine the kind of society. We have nobody home. The Family Structure is gone. You have women who say, we dont need men in the house. We need men. I am an African American one, and our young boys need men. Nurture your children. Why would a young person want to die . When i was growing up, the last thing you want to do is die. You know, you get one chance at life. They dont care. Host what are things like an cleveland today . Know, it is, you just a mixture, you know. Have you heard of the Foster Grandparent Program . I was one for 15 years. Our kids are in trouble. How many of these kids they call me granny jones. Granny, and i come and live with you . That is how bad it is. We need help. We need families. When i was coming up, if you did not have a father, you have the neighborhood. They took care of you. You know you are loved. These kids, like i said, have no selfworth. To that,treet will get get them when they are young, when they are beginning, they are lost. Thank you. Steve from hear from goldsboro, North Carolina on the republican line. Hi, steve. Caller hi. How are you doing . First time i want to start up by saying i am a water expert for a global company. I travel probably 80 of the time. Locations,ultiple Nuclear Energy size, pharmaceutical companies, beverage plants. I have access to a lot of chemistry associates, shall i say. I have also been in a Pain Management program for about 16 years with the opiates. I havemy time period, been able to stop and start. Extremely exhausted from the roller coaster rides that you can get sometimes, but in the last couple of years since aim at theent took opiate addiction, i decided to do a little bit of research that goes along with part of what my job is, which gives me some access to certain things like , and iomatography tests actually had a couple of my. Ills tested for example, a 15 milligram oxycodone pill had less than five milligrams of active ingredient in it. Porous, the ferocity on was quite a bit higher than a different drug store. Between milligram have seven milligrams and eight milligrams of active ingredients. Both pills were supposed to be 15 milligrams. Actuallynment has opened the specifications of to the from a suitable companies, and the pharmaceutical companies are more than glad to oblige because they use less of the active ingredient and reduce more pills, and people are taking more pills because they are not given the same effect. Host lastly, lets hear from jeanette calling in from mooresville, North Carolina on the democratic line. Hi, jeanette. Caller hi. Thank you for taking my call. I am the mother of a son who is in recovery, and my son could not get he could not get into a program that could help him because he did not have the money to get in a program, and the programs that he was eligible for, they were only 30 days, and then they were cut back to 14 days. So there is a lot of misunderstanding and misconception regarding addiction. No one wants to die, ok. Once they are addicted, the drug has hijacked their brains, and they need the drug. And yes, the first time they choose to try a drug, it is a choice, but once they are addicted, it is no longer a choice. That drug has hijacked the brains. And i want to say that it is a disease which affects their frontal cortex and their norovirus sectors their normal receptors. It is genetic, and in some families, people are predisposed to being addicted to alcohol and different drugs. The problem is, nobody i just want to tell young people, dont try it. It is like playing russian roulette. You dont know if you will be the one whos going to be addicted to alcohol or opioids or meth. They dont know until they try it and get hooked. Withdrawal ifical they cannot get into recovery that keeps them using because the withdrawal is so horrible. That if youto say stop checks for people on disability, veterans whatever, crime is going to go up. Force them to get into a program. That is the better choice. The liver, there are not enough programs, or they are insufficient. My son got better because he was in a program for one year. He learned about his disease. He learned how the recovery works. Thats what has got him well. Theres too much shame and stigma around addiction. Thats the other problem. People, get informed, get educated and lets get some better programs out there for these addicts. Thank you so much. Host we will end this is segment there.
